Description

  The present invention relates to a slot machine having a high probability lottery period set with a high probability of deciding to execute a display function continuous operation period (AT).

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is known a slot machine in which a plurality of types of bets for medals are provided and a game is played with any number of bets (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2015-080530

However, in the conventional slot machine, there is no technology that relates the control related to AT and the number of bets.
The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a technology that associates the control related to the display function continuous operation period (AT) with the number of bets.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by the following solution means (the configuration of the corresponding embodiment is shown in parentheses).
The invention according to the initial claim of the present application corresponds to the initial invention 9 among the initial inventions 1 to 12 described later.
The invention of claim 1
Display that activates a function for displaying an advantageous operation mode of the stop switch in a game in which an advantage / disadvantage of the game result depends on the operation mode (push order) of the stop switch (42) (displays the correct push order) Function-operated games,
Display function continuous operation period (AT, payout number 480 sheets section) for executing the display function operation game in at least a plurality of games;
High probability lottery period (AT high-accuracy period, 1500 game or 3000 payout period) set with a high probability of determining to execute the display function continuous operation period, and the display function than the high probability lottery period A plurality of lottery periods consisting of a non-high probability lottery period (non-AT high-accuracy period) set with a low probability of deciding to execute the continuous operation period;
Period lottery means (AT high-accuracy control means 69) for determining whether or not to execute the high probability lottery period;
Counters (AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b) for counting variables for determining whether or not the termination condition of the high-probability lottery period is satisfied,
As the number of game media inserted (number of bets), at least the first number inserted (3) and the second number inserted (2),
When the period lottery means decides to execute the high-probability lottery period, the variable of the counter is updated on condition that the number of game media inserted is the first number inserted. .
The invention of claim 2 is a special combination (1BB) for shifting to a special game (1BB game) in which the winning probability of at least one combination (for example, small combination E) is set higher than before. And a lottery drawing means (61) for lottery including, and after winning the special role in the game with the first number of insertions, the combination of symbols corresponding to the special role is effective in the game with the second number of insertions It is possible to stop at the line.

  According to the present invention, since the high-probability lottery period proceeds when the first insertion number is reached, it is possible to prevent the high-probability lottery period from proceeding when playing a game with the second insertion number. Thus, for example, when a special combination is won during the high-probability lottery period, if the game that stops the combination of symbols corresponding to the special combination in the active line is performed with the second input number, in the game, the high-probability lottery period Can be prevented from progressing.

In the present specification, the meanings of terms are as follows.
“RT” means that the type (number) of condition devices (1BB, 2BB, replay, small role) and the winning probability for the lottery target are in a lottery state, and “RT transition” By shifting from one RT to another one, it means that the winning probability of at least one replay to be a lottery varies. Therefore, the winning probability for each type of replay in one RT is a value specific to that RT, and the winning probability for each type of replay is the same between one RT and the other RT. Absent. However, the combined value of the replay winning probability may be the same for one RT and the other RT.

For example, in the first embodiment, the RT includes non-RT, RT1, RT2, and RT3 (FIG. 16 described later). Further, an eighth embodiment described later includes RT4 and RT5, and a twelfth embodiment includes RT6 and RT7.
“Non-RT” does not mean that it is not included in the concept of RT, but is equivalent to “RT0”. Therefore, in this specification, “RT” includes non-RT.
In the present embodiment, the non-inside is non-RT, RT1, or RT2, and the inside is RT3. This is because the type (number) of replays to be selected for the lottery and the winning probabilities are different between the inside and the inside.

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, 1BB game and 2BB game are provided as RTs during the special game. In this embodiment, neither the 1BB game nor the 2BB game performs the replay lottery, but the RT that does not perform the replay lottery is one RT. That is, an RT that is a 1BB game and an RT that is a 2BB game are provided.
In the current rules, 1BB is referred to as “first-type accessory continuous operating device”, and 2BB is referred to as “second-type accessory continuous operating device”.
Further, the first-type accessory continuous operation device refers to a device that can continuously operate the first-type special accessory, and the “first-type special accessory” refers to RB (regular bonus). .
Similarly, the second-type accessory continuous operation device refers to a device that can continuously operate the second-type special accessory, and the “first-special accessory” refers to a CB (challenge bonus). Point to.
That is, RB can be operated continuously during 1BB game, and CB can be operated continuously during 2BB game.

In addition, it is also possible to provide SB (single bonus: normal bonus) as a special role other than the above. For example, when a SB is drawn by lottery during a normal game and the SB is won, the combination of symbols corresponding to the SB is controlled to be stopped on the active line. Although SB is one of special roles, it is desirable to set “PB = 1” because winning is not carried over to the next game. When SB wins, the SB game (1 game) is executed in the next game. The SB game is a game (a game that is more advantageous to the player than the normal game) set so that a predetermined combination is won and won with a high probability.
Based on winning of SB, you may set so that the AT highly accurate period mentioned later may be started. In this case, after the end of the SB game, the AT high probability period is started.

The “winning and replay condition device” means a so-called small role and a winning combination related to replay, and does not include a special role that carries over the winning.
In the first embodiment, winning and replay condition device numbers “0” to “30”, which are condition devices that do not carry the winning information to the next game, are provided.
On the other hand, the “combination condition device” indicates a winning combination in which winning information can be carried over after the next game, and in the first embodiment, has 1BB and 2BB described above.

The “advantageous operation mode” of the stop switch is a game in which an advantage / disadvantage is caused in the game result (combination of symbols stopped on the active line) by the operation mode of the stop switch (hereinafter, such a game is referred to as “ In “game result variation game”), it refers to an operation mode in which a winning combination with a large number of payouts wins, or an operating mode in which a winning combination that shifts to an advantageous RT wins. The “advantageous operation mode” is also referred to as a correct operation mode.
The “operation mode” is a concept indicating the order of pressing the stop switch and / or the operation timing (pressing the eye so that the target symbol stops on the active line).

  In the present embodiment, there are two types of “incorrect answer pressing order” when the pressing order bell is won. Among the push order bells in the present embodiment, the small roles A1 to B6, which will be described later, will win when the stop switch is operated in the correct push order according to the push order of the stop switch, or the push order and the operation timing. It has a bell (8 or 3 bells with a large number of payouts) and a low-cost bell (1 bell with a small number of payouts) that is awarded when the stop switch is operated in the incorrect order of pressing.

  Furthermore, when the stop switch is operated in the incorrect answer pressing order when the pressing order bell is won, there are cases where the Anme Bell wins and cases where the combination is missed according to the operation timing of the stop switch. The stop appearance (a combination of symbols on the effective line) displayed when the role is missed is referred to as “spilled eye”, and in this embodiment is referred to as “special symbol (“ abbreviation of specific symbol ”).

  In addition, among the push order bells, small roles C1 to C6, which will be described later, are RT maintenance bells to be awarded when the stop switch is operated in the correct push order according to the push order of the stop switch (the number of payouts is 3), There is an RT transition (falling) bell (the number of payouts is 3) which is awarded when the stop switch is operated in the incorrect pressing order.

On the other hand, at the time of replay overlap winning (replays of replays B1 to B6 described later), a combination of different symbols is stopped and displayed according to the pressing order of the stop switches, but no overshoot occurs at the time of replay winning (“PB =” described later). 1 ").
In this case, a combination of symbols advantageous to the player, for example, a symbol combination that shifts to an RT with a higher replay winning probability, or a push order for stopping and displaying a symbol combination that maintains an RT with a higher replay winning probability, These are called “correct answer push order” and “promotion push order”.
On the other hand, a push order in which a combination of symbols transitioning from an RT that is advantageous to the player (for example, RT having a high replay winning probability) to an unfavorable RT (for example, RT having a low replay winning probability) is stopped and displayed is “incorrect This is referred to as “push order” and “falling push order”.

“Display function (synonymous with instruction function; hereinafter the same)” means a function of displaying (instructing) the above-mentioned “advantageous operation mode” to the player in a broad sense.
On the other hand, the “display function” refers to a device that facilitates winning in a narrow sense. For this reason, the “display function” in the narrow sense refers to displaying the correct answer push order for winning the correct answer push order (high eye bell) at the time of push order bell win, and advantageous replay (favorable RT Display of the correct pressing order for winning a replay for transitioning to (or replay for maintaining an advantageous RT) is not included.
In the following embodiments, “display function” refers to a function that displays “advantageous operation mode” to the player, and “operation of the display function” indicates that the correct answer push order is displayed when the push order bell is won. , And displaying the correct answer pressing order for winning an advantageous replay at the time of replay overlap win.

In addition, the “display function operation game” means a game in which a display function is operated in a game result changing game. For this reason, the display function operation game is one game.
“AT (Assist Time)” means a game period (display function continuous operation period) in which a display function operation game is executed in at least a plurality of games.
For example, the “N” game is a display function operation game in which the push order bell is won and the correct answer push order is displayed, and the “N + 1” game is not winning the role and the correct answer push order is not displayed (display function is activated). When the “N + 2” game is a display function operation game in which the “N + 2” game wins the push order bell and displays the correct answer push order, the “N” game to the “N + 2” game are AT (display function continuous) During the operation period).

Various AT start conditions and end conditions can be set.
For example, the AT start condition may be that a lottery is performed for each game. Further, the AT lottery is performed separately from the lottery of the combination, and when the AT lottery is won, it may be started from the next game. Alternatively, a condition device corresponding to the AT is provided, and the condition device is performed together with the lottery of the role or separately from the lottery of the role, and when the condition device is won, the player can operate the stop switch 42. Based on this, the symbol combination corresponding to the condition device is stopped on the active line, and when this symbol combination stops, AT is started from the next game.

  The AT lottery can also be associated with the role lottery. For example, an AT lottery may be executed when a rare role is won in a role lottery. Specifically, for example, when replay C, which will be described later, is won, it is set to win AT with a probability of 20%, and when a small role D1 is won, it is set to win with AT with a probability of 50%. It is done.

  The AT end condition is set when the number of games, the number of payouts, and the number of differences have reached the upper limit (exceeded the predetermined number). For example, when the number of games is set to “50”, the number of games continues to be counted after the start of the AT. When the counted number of games reaches “50”, the AT is terminated with the game. In addition, when the AT end condition is set to the number of payouts or the difference number, after the AT is started, the number of payouts or the difference number is continuously counted, and the counted number exceeds a predetermined number (for example, the number of payouts is 480). If it does, the AT ends with the game.

  During AT, in principle, the display function is always activated in the game result changing game. However, as will be described later, the display function may not be activated when the RT falls due to a player's mistake in operating the stop switch during AT. For example, if the player falls from RT2 (advantageous RT corresponding to execution of AT) to non-RT (unfavorable RT whose replay winning probability is lower than RT2) due to an operation error of the stop switch during AT, It is necessary to return to RT2 again for relief. Here, in order to shift from non-RT to RT1, it is necessary to display a special figure in non-RT.

  The special figure is the spilling of the push order bells A1 to A6, B1 to B6 (games that can display the special figure) (the outcome displayed at a fixed rate when the push order is incorrect), so the special figure In order to display, the correct answer pressing order cannot be displayed. Furthermore, displaying the pressing order for displaying the special figure displays an incorrect answer pressing order, that is, a pressing order that is unfavorable to the player. Therefore, in this embodiment, when the player falls to a non-RT during the AT, the display function is not operated in a game capable of displaying a special figure.

The “AT high probability period” means a gaming period in which the probability of determining to execute AT (AT winning probability) is set high. A game period other than the AT high-accuracy period is referred to as a non-AT high-accuracy period. For this reason, the game period is either an AT high-accuracy period or a non-AT high-accuracy period.
In the following embodiments, there are two AT-accuracy periods and non-AT-accuracy periods. However, the present invention is not limited to these two. Three or more types of lottery periods with different winning probabilities may be provided, such as a period (for example, the winning probability is 1/30) and a non-AT highly accurate period (for example, the winning probability is 1/300).

Various conditions can be set for the start condition and the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period.
For example, the AT high-accuracy period start condition is that a lottery is performed for each game. Furthermore, the lottery during the AT high-accuracy period is performed separately from the lottery of the combination, and when the lottery during the AT high-accuracy period is won, it may be started from the next game. Alternatively, a condition device corresponding to the AT high-accuracy period is provided, and the condition device is performed together with the lottery of the role or separately from the lottery of the role, and when the condition device is won, the player's stop switch 42 On the basis of the above operation, the symbol combination corresponding to the condition device is stopped on the active line, and when this symbol combination is stopped, the AT high probability period is started from the next game.

  The AT high-accuracy period end condition is set when the number of games, the number of payouts, and the number of differences reach the upper limit (exceeding a predetermined number). For example, when the number of games is set to “1500”, the number of games continues to be counted after the start of the AT high-accuracy period, and when the counted number of games reaches “1500 (game)”, AT End the high-accuracy period. In addition, when the AT high accuracy period end condition is set to the number of payouts, the payout number is continuously counted after the start of the AT high accuracy period, and the counted payout number exceeds a predetermined number (for example, 3000). Ends the AT high probability period with the game.

In addition, when winning in the AT high-accuracy period, the number of games will be counted when counting the number of games (or the number of payouts, etc.) from the next game of the winning game, or just winning in the AT high-accuracy period. First, the number of games and the like are counted from when a predetermined condition is satisfied.
For example, when a condition device (a combination of symbols) corresponding to the AT high-accuracy period is included, counting of the number of games and the like is started on the condition that the combination of symbols stops on the active line.

In addition, there is a case in which counting of the number of games or the like in the AT high-accuracy period is started on the condition that an RT corresponding to the AT high-accuracy period is provided and the RT is shifted to the RT.
The “RT corresponding to the AT high-accuracy period” refers to an RT that is desired to stay as much as possible during the AT high-accuracy period. As in the first embodiment, when transitioning to RT on the condition of winning a specific replay or displaying a special figure, the AT high probability period does not always stay at the same RT. However, when an RT having a high replay winning probability is provided, such as RT6 in the twelfth embodiment, and the RT6 is used for the AT high probability period, it remains at RT6 during the AT high probability period. Control.

The AT lottery and the AT high-accuracy period lottery may be executed separately or in association with each other. When performing a lottery between AT and AT high accuracy period,
(1) When elected to AT but not elected during AT high-accuracy period (2) When not elected to AT but elected during AT high-accuracy period (3) elected to AT, and One example is when winning during the AT high-accuracy period.
Furthermore, in the case where a lottery is performed in association with an AT and an AT high-accuracy period, when winning in the AT high-accuracy period, it is set so that the AT wins at the same time.

The pull-in rate (PB) is the probability that a desired symbol to be stopped on the active line can be stopped on the active line from the moment when the stop switch is operated until the reel stops (maximum number of moving frames). Show.
If the stop switch is not operated at an appropriate reel position (at an operation timing at which the target symbol can be stopped on the active line within the range of the maximum number of moving frames), the target symbol is stopped on the active line (until the effective line is reached). Inability to pull in is referred to as “PB (pull-in rate) ≠ 1”.
On the other hand, regardless of the position of the reel at the moment when the stop switch is operated (regardless of the operation timing of the stop switch), the target symbol can always be stopped (drawn) on the effective line. = 1 ".

“PB = 1” has a case where all the reels are so in the role and a case where only the specific (partial) reels are.
In the present embodiment, the maximum number of moving frames is set to “4”, and when the target symbol is arranged at an interval of 5 symbols or less, “PB = 1” is obtained, exceeding 5 symbols (6 symbols or more). When arranged at intervals, “PB ≠ 1”.

  In the case where the game progresses as “N−1” game, “N” game, “N + 1” game,... (“N” is an integer of 2 or more), the current game is “N” game. When it is an eye, the game of the “N” game is referred to as “current game”. In addition, the game of the “N-1” game is referred to as “previous game”, and when both the previous game and the previous game are included, it is referred to as “before the previous game”. On the other hand, the game of the “N + 1” game is referred to as “next game”, and if it includes both the next game and subsequent games, it is referred to as “next game and later”.

The “rendering rate” is a value calculated from the expected medal payout number / medal insertion number. When it is “1”, the current state is maintained, and when it exceeds “1”, medals increase. If the number is less than “1”, the number of medals is decreased.
In addition, the “medal payout number expectation value” is calculated by the sum of “winning probability of combination × number of payouts” for all the combinations to be selected in the game.

  Furthermore, the “difference number” is a value calculated by “medal payout number (actually paid out medal number or expected medal payout number) −medal insertion number”. When the medal insertion number is “3”, if the medal payout number (expected value) is “3”, the difference number is “± 0”, and if the medal payout number (expected value) exceeds “3”, When the difference number exceeds “0” and the medal payout number (expected value) is less than “3”, the difference number is less than “0”.

“Bet” refers to betting a medal (game medium) in order to play a game. In the present embodiment, the maximum (limit) number that can be bet is always set to three. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and as in the tenth embodiment described later, the number of normal games (non-special games) is set to three, and the number of special games (1BB games, etc.) is set to other than three, for example, two. And so on.
In the first embodiment, the betable number is fixed at “3”. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as in the ninth embodiment, the betable number is set to “2” or “3” ( (Multiple types) may be set so that the player can select according to the situation. Although details will be described later, for example, when a game is played with the bet number “3” and the AT high-accuracy period (high probability opportunity) is won, the bet number “2” is set to correspond to the AT high-accuracy period. A game in which the combination is stopped at the active line can be cited.
Note that the “bet number” may be referred to as a “prescribed number”.

  “Reservation” refers to crediting a medal into the slot machine 10, unlike the “bet”. “Storage” may be used to include a bet, but in this specification, “storage” is used to mean that “bet” is not included. In the present embodiment, the maximum (limit) number that can be stored is set to “50” regardless of the gaming state or the like.

  It is equivalent that the slot machine 10 “pays” a medal to the player and that the player “acquires” a medal. Therefore, from the viewpoint of the slot machine 10, “medal payout”, and from the player side, “medal acquisition”. For this reason, there are cases called “payout (number)” and “acquisition (number)”, which have the same meaning.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
<First Embodiment>
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an outline of control of the slot machine 10 in the present embodiment.
A main control board 50 and a sub control board 80 are provided as typical control boards provided in the slot machine 10.

In FIG. 1, a main control board 50 and peripheral devices for game progress including operation switches such as the bet switch 40 illustrated in FIG. 1 are electrically connected via an input port 51 or an output port 52. . The input port 51 is a connection unit to which signals such as operation switches are input, and the output port 52 is a connection unit that transmits signals to peripheral devices such as the motor 32.
In FIG. 1, the peripheral device for input is indicated by an arrow from the peripheral device to the main control board 50, and the peripheral device for output is indicated by an arrow from the main control board 50 to the peripheral device. It is shown (the same applies to the sub-control board 80).

The RWM 53 is a storage medium that can store (update) various data (variables) based on the progress of the game.
The ROM 54 is a storage medium that stores programs necessary for the progress of the game, various data (for example, a data table), and the like.
The main CPU 55 refers to a CPU provided on the main control board 50, and executes programs and calculations necessary for the progress of the game. Specifically, the lottery of the role, the drive control of the reel 31, and the winning Execute paying out.
The main CPU 55 incorporates a register. In particular, in the present embodiment, a plurality (for example, an A register to an L register and a transmission register) are provided.

An MPU including an RWM 53, a ROM 54, a main CPU 55, and a register is mounted on the main control board 50. Note that the RWM 53 and the ROM 54 may be provided outside the MPU inside the MPU.
An MPU including an RWM 83, a ROM 84, and a main CPU 85 is mounted on a sub control board 80 described later. Note that the RWM 83 and the ROM 84 may be provided outside the one installed in the MPU.

In FIG. 1, medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 43 are sent into the medal selector.
As shown in FIG. 1, the medal selector includes a passage sensor 43a, a blocker 45, and insertion sensors 44a and 44b (but not limited thereto), and is electrically connected to the main control board 50. .
When a medal is inserted from the medal slot 43, the passage sensor 43a first detects the medal.

  Further, a blocker 45 is provided on the downstream side of the passage sensor 43a. The blocker 45 is for permitting / disallowing the insertion of medals, and forms a medal passage for returning the medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 43 from the payout slot when the insertion of medals is not permitted. To do. On the other hand, when the insertion of medals is permitted, a medal passage for guiding medals inserted from the medal insertion port 43 to the hopper 35 is formed.

  Here, the blocker 45 is in a state where the insertion of medals is not permitted during the game (from the start of the rotation of the reels 31 until all the reels 31 are stopped and the payout corresponding to the winning combination is completed at the time of winning the winning combination). To do. That is, the blocker 45 permits the insertion of medals at least when a game is not being performed.

  On the further downstream side of the blocker 45, input sensors 44a and 44b (optical sensors) are provided. Therefore, the medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 43 are further detected by the insertion sensors 44a (upstream side) and 44b (downstream side) after being detected by the passage sensor 43a.

As shown in FIG. 1, the main control board 50 includes a bet switch 40, a start switch 41, a (left, middle, right) stop switch 42, and a checkout switch 46 as operation switches operated by the player. Connected.
The bet switch 40 (40a or 40b) is a switch operated by the player when betting a stored medal for the current game. In the present embodiment, a 1-bet switch 40a for inserting one medal and a 3-bet switch 40b for inserting three (maximum number) medals are provided.
In addition to this, a bet switch for two bets may be provided.
In the present embodiment, as described above, the slot machine 10 is a three-sheet dedicated machine, but a 1-bet switch 40a is provided. Even if the 1-bet switch 40a is operated (turned on) three times, three medals can be inserted.

The start switch 41 is a switch operated by the player when starting the reels 31 (all of left, middle and right).
Furthermore, three stop switches 42 are provided corresponding to the three (left, middle, and right) reels 31 and are operated by the player when the corresponding reels 31 are stopped.
Further, the settlement switch 46 is a switch operated by the player when paying out (pays out) a medal that has been bet and / or stored (credited) in the slot machine 10.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1, a medal display device (display substrate) is connected to the main control substrate 50. Actually, a relay board is provided between the main control board 50 and the medal display device, and the main control board 50 and the relay board, and the relay board and the medal display device are connected. In FIG. 1, the illustration of the relay board is omitted.

A storage number display LED 38 and an acquisition number display LED 39 are connected to the medal display device.
The storage number display LED 38 is an LED that displays the number of medals stored in the slot machine 10, and includes a digit that displays an upper digit and a digit that displays a lower digit. That is, the storage number display LED 38 displays two digits.
Here, “digit” means a display unit (display), and in the present embodiment, it is composed of a seven segment display (so-called 7-segment).

The storage number display LED 38 displays the number of stored medals, and in this embodiment, displays a number between “00” and “50” (integer).
For example, in a state where no medals are bet and stored, the display of the storage number display LED 38 is “00”. Here, when one medal is maintained, that one medal is bet for this game. When two more cards are added, three medals are bet for the game this time (when the bet limit is three). Therefore, when up to three medals are maintained, the medals are bet and not stored. As medals continue to be maintained, medals are stored in the slot machine 10 and the number of stored medals is displayed by the stored number display LED 38.

  In this embodiment, up to 50 medals can be stored. Therefore, when the number of stored sheets reaches 50 (when “50” is displayed on the stored number display LED 38), no more medals are stored. In this state, if a medal is maintained from the medal insertion slot 43, the maintained medal is returned from the payout slot by the blocker 45.

  Here, when a winning combination (small role) wins a medal and a medal corresponding to the winning combination is paid out, the medal is given in the slot machine 10 in preference to the actual payout of the medal from the payout slot. Is stored. For example, in the case where the number of pools before winning a winning combination is “10”, when an 8 winning combination (push order correct answer bell) to be described later wins, the display of the stored number display LED 38 is updated from “10” to “18”. .

  Furthermore, when the winning number of the winning combination exceeds “50”, the portion exceeding “50” is actually paid out from the payout opening. For example, if the number of stored coins is “47” before winning a winning combination, and 8 medals are paid out by winning an 8 winning combination, 3 are stored and the storing number becomes “50”, which exceeds “50”. About 5 sheets are paid out from the payout opening.

  Further, at the time of replay winning, medals are not stored and paid out, and the number of medals bet in the current game are automatically bet for replay. For example, when this game is played with 3 bets (3 cards) and replay is won, 3 medals are automatically bet. Since the automatic bet based on the replay winning is the insertion of medals for replaying, even if the settlement (return) operation is performed thereafter, the medals cannot be settled.

  According to the “Rules for Game Machine Approval and Type Approval, etc.”, if the combination of symbols corresponding to replay is stopped on the active line, it is the operation of the condition device related to replay and not “winning”. Interpreted. However, in the present application (this specification and the like), the fact that the combination of symbols corresponding to replay has stopped on the active line is referred to as “replay winning”.

The acquisition number display LED 39 is an LED that displays the number of payouts (the number of players acquired) at the time of winning a winning combination, and is composed of a digit that displays an upper digit and a digit 4 that displays a lower digit. Therefore, the acquisition number display LED 39 displays two digits, like the storage number display LED 38.
The acquisition number display LED 39 is “00” when there is no medal to be paid out. For example, when eight medals to be described later win a prize and eight medals are paid out, the display of the acquisition number display LED 39 is: From “00” to “08”.
Note that the acquired number display LED 39 may be controlled to be turned off when there are no medals to be paid out. Alternatively, the upper digit may be turned off and only the lower digit may be displayed as “0”.

The acquisition number display LED 39 normally displays the acquisition number, but functions as an LED that displays the content (type) of the error when an error occurs.
Furthermore, the acquisition number display LED 39 functions as an LED for displaying information on the pressing order (pressing order instruction information) that is advantageous to the player during AT or the like. Specifically, when the display function is activated by the AT control means 70, push order instruction information (advantageous operation mode) is displayed on the acquired number display LED 39. Therefore, the acquisition number display LED 39 in the present embodiment is an LED that also serves to display the acquisition number, error contents, and push order instruction information. Note that an advantageous push order notification is also executed by the image display device 23 connected to the sub-control board 80.

Here, a number corresponding to an advantageous push order is referred to as a “push order instruction number”, and a push order display using the acquisition number display LED 39 by the main control board 50 is referred to as “push order instruction information display (operation of display function). ) ". The display of the pressing order by the sub-control board 80 is referred to as “(correct answer) pressing order notification”.
Although details will be described later, when the push order instruction number is “A1”, the push order instruction information is “= 1”. In the present embodiment, “=” is displayed in the upper digit so as not to be mistaken or confused with the display of the acquired number. Further, the notified pressing order is “left middle right”.

As shown in FIG. 1, the main control board 50 is electrically connected to a motor 32 of a symbol display device.
The symbol display device includes reels 31 (three in this embodiment) for displaying symbols, motors 32 for driving the reels 31, and a reel sensor 33 for detecting the position of the reels 31.

  The motor 32 is for rotating the reels 31, is connected to the center of rotation of each reel 31, and is controlled by a reel control means 65 described later. Here, the reel 31 includes a left reel 31, a middle reel 31, and a right reel 31, and a stop switch 42 that is operated when the left reel 31 is stopped is the left stop switch 42, and when the middle reel 31 is stopped. The stop switch 42 to be operated is the middle stop switch 42, and the stop switch 42 to be operated when stopping the right reel 31 is the right stop switch 42.

The reel 31 is ring-shaped, and a reel tape on which a plurality of types of symbols (designs constituting a combination of symbols corresponding to the combination) is attached is attached to the outer peripheral surface thereof. The specific arrangement of symbols on the reel 31 will be described later.
Each reel 31 is provided with one (or two or more) index. The index is provided in a convex shape on, for example, the circumferential side surface of the reel 31 and is used when detecting whether the reel 31 has passed a predetermined position, whether it has rotated one time, or the like. Each index is detected by the reel sensor 33. The signal of the reel sensor 33 is electrically connected to the main control board 50. When the index detects (cuts) the reel sensor 33, the input signal is input to the main control board 50, and it is detected that the reel 31 has passed a predetermined position.

  Further, a symbol on the reference position at the moment when the reel sensor 33 detects the index of the reel 31 is stored in the ROM 54 in advance. Thereby, the symbol on the reference position at the moment when the index is detected can be detected.

  In addition, a medal payout device is electrically connected to the main control board 50. The medal payout device includes a hopper 35 for storing medals, a hopper motor 36 that is driven when paying out medals of the hopper 35 from a payout port, and a payout for detecting medals paid out from the hopper motor 36. Sensors 37a and 37b are provided.

The medals that are maintained and received from the medal slot 43 are formed so as to be accommodated in the hopper 35 through a predetermined passage (also referred to as “chute part”).
The payout sensors 37a and 37b are provided with a payout sensor 37a on the upstream side and a payout sensor 37b on the downstream side, similarly to the input sensors 44a and 44b.

  The payout sensors 37a and 37b are arranged at a predetermined distance, and are configured to be detected by the payout sensor 37b after a predetermined time has elapsed since the medal was detected by the payout sensor 37a. Then, based on the timing when the payout sensors 37a and 37b are turned on / off, it is determined whether or not the medals have been paid out correctly.

For example, when the signals of the payout sensors 37a and 37b are both off despite the hopper motor 36 being driven, it is determined that no medal has been paid out, and a hopper error (no medal) is detected. Is done.
On the other hand, when at least one of the signals from the payout sensor 37a or 37b remains on, it is detected that a medal jam has occurred. Note that only one payout sensor 37 may be provided to detect the error.

Furthermore, an external signal (outer end signal) to the external concentrated terminal board 100 is output from a part of the output port 52 (in the present embodiment, the output port 5).
Here, the “external signal” is a signal to be output to the outside of the slot machine 10 (a hall computer, a data counter installed in the hall, etc.) via the external concentration terminal board 100. In the present embodiment, an external signal (BB signal, RB signal, AT signal), an external signal indicating that an error or power failure has occurred in the slot machine 10, an external indicating the opening of the front door of the slot machine 10 A signal, a medal insertion signal, a medal payout signal, and the like are provided.

In FIG. 1, the sub-control board 80 controls the selection and output of effects (information) during the game and during the game standby.
Here, the main control board 50 and the sub control board 80 are electrically connected, and the main control board 50 (control command transmission means 72 described later) is unidirectionally connected to the sub control board 80 by parallel communication. Information necessary for production output (control command) is transmitted.
The main control board 50 and the sub control board 80 are not limited to being electrically connected, and may be connected using optical communication means. Furthermore, both the electrical connection and the optical communication connection are not limited to parallel communication, but may be serial communication, and serial communication and parallel communication may be used in combination.

Similar to the main control board 50, the sub control board 80 includes an input port 81, an output port 82, an RWM 83, a ROM 84, a sub CPU 85, and the like.
1 is connected to the sub-control board 80 through the input port 81 or the output port 82 as shown in FIG. However, the peripheral device for production is not limited to these.
The RWM 83 is a storage medium capable of temporarily storing data and the like captured when the sub CPU 85 controls the production.
The ROM 84 is a storage medium that stores programs such as a lottery for production, various data, and the like as production data.

  The effect lamp 21 is made of an LED, for example, and lights up in a predetermined pattern when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The effect lamp 21 is arranged on the inner peripheral side of each reel 31, and a back lamp for illuminating from behind the symbols displayed on the reel 31 (three symbols that are continuously visible from the display window). Fluorescent lamps that illuminate the symbols on the reel 31 from above, and a frame lamp that is arranged on the front surface of the front cover of the slot machine 10 and blinks when winning a winning combination.

The speaker 22 outputs a predetermined sound when a predetermined condition is satisfied in order to perform various effects during the game.
Furthermore, the image display device 23 is composed of a liquid crystal display, an organic EL display, a dot display, and the like. Game information (special game and number of games during AT, number of games acquired, etc.) is displayed.

Subsequently, the combination of the present embodiment, the combination of symbols, and the like will be described.
FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a symbol arrangement of the reels 31 in the present embodiment. In FIG. 2, symbol numbers are also shown. For example, in the left reel 31, the symbol of symbol number 0 is “replay”.
As shown in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, each reel 31 is equally divided into 20 frames, and a predetermined symbol is displayed on each frame.
In the figure, “blank” does not mean that a symbol is not displayed at all, and a predetermined symbol corresponding to “blank” is displayed.

3A shows the positional relationship between the display window (transparent window) 11 provided on the front mask portion (front door, not shown) of the slot machine 10 and each reel 31, and the effective line (design). FIG.
In this embodiment, three reels 31 (left reel 31, middle reel 31, and right reel 31) are provided in parallel in the horizontal direction in this embodiment. Further, each reel 31 is arranged so that three symbols that are continuous in the vertical direction can be seen from the display window 11. Accordingly, the display windows 11 of the slot machine 10 are arranged so that a total of nine symbols (frames) can be seen. The numbers on the lower right of each symbol indicate the symbol number.

FIG. 3B illustrates the designation of symbol positions in this specification. In the present specification, for each reel 31, the symbol positions at the time of stopping as seen from the display window 11 are referred to as “upper stage”, “middle stage”, and “lower stage” in order from the top. ”,“ Middle left ”, and“ lower left ”.
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3A, effective lines are set for the nine symbols visible from the display window 11.

  Here, the “effective line” is a symbol combination line (display line) that is a symbol arrangement line when the reel 31 is stopped, and forms a symbol combination, and a symbol corresponding to one of the roles. When the combination stops at that line, it is the line that wins the role. In the present embodiment, one effective line (a straight line passing through “left middle stage”-“middle middle stage”-“right middle stage”) is defined, and all other symbol combination lines are invalid lines. Yes.

  An invalid line is a line that is not set as a valid line among symbol combination lines, and even if a combination of symbols corresponding to any of the combinations stops on that line, a profit corresponding to the combination is given. This line does not perform (medal payout etc.). In other words, the invalid line is a line that is not a target of combination of symbols in the first place.

  Conventionally, there are known slot machines in which the number of effective lines differs according to the number of medals inserted. For example, when the number of inserted medals is 1, the number of effective lines is set to 1. When the number of inserted medals is 2, the number of effective lines is set to 3. When the number of inserted medals is 3, the number of effective lines is set to 5. And so on. On the other hand, in this embodiment, during the game, three medals are always inserted to play the game, and in all games, one of the medals shown in FIG. There is no change in the number of effective lines. Therefore, in this specification, the term “effective line” refers to a straight middle line shown in FIG.

  4 to 7 are diagrams showing combinations of combinations of types (combinations included in a condition device lottered by a combination lottery means 61 described later), the number of payouts, and the like in this embodiment. In FIG. 7, special symbols (specific symbols) 01 to 03 (spilled eyes) are also illustrated as combinations of symbols that may be displayed when winning a specific condition device, although they are not roles. (FIG. 7, role numbers “64” to “75” (described later)).

The roles of the present embodiment are roughly classified into special roles, replays (replaying roles), and small roles.
A combination of symbols corresponding to each combination and the number of payouts at the time of winning are determined. When all the reels 31 are stopped, when the combination of symbols corresponding to any of the combinations stops on the active line (the combination wins, the same applies hereinafter), the number of medals corresponding to the combination is paid out.
However, the number of payouts at the time of winning a special role is set to 0. In replay, medals are automatically inserted (replay).

  As shown in FIG. 4, the special combination is 1BB (first type big bonus) (type number “1”) and 2BB (second type big bonus, sometimes called middle bonus (MB)). (The role number “2”) is provided. Other special roles include RB (regular bonus), SB (single bonus), etc., but are not provided in this embodiment.

The special role is a role to shift from the normal game to the special game.
When winning 1BB, there is no payout of medals in the current game, but the next game shifts to 1BB game corresponding to a special game. Similarly, when 2BB is won, there is no payout of medals in the current game, but the next game shifts to a 2BB game corresponding to a special game.
Both 1BB games and 2BB games are advantageous for the players, who can expect to win more medals than normal games (non-AT, non-special games) by setting the payout rate to exceed “1”. Game.

In addition, the replay (re-playing combination) is a combination that allows a re-play to be performed while maintaining the number of medals inserted in this game (automatic betting of medals).
As shown in FIG. 4, the replay of the present embodiment includes replays 01 to 06 (part numbers “3” to “8”).
Replays 01 and 02 and replays 03 and 04 are replays that are transferred to other RTs when winning in a specific RT. Therefore, these replays are also referred to as transition replays.

More specifically, when the replay 01 or 02 wins at RT1 or RT2, the next game is shifted to non-RT (RT that is far from RT2, which is RT advantageous to the player). For this reason, the replays 01 and 02 are also referred to as falling replays.
When the replay 03 or 04 wins at RT1, the next game is shifted to RT2 (RT that is more advantageous to the player than the previous RT). For this reason, replays 03 and 04 are also referred to as promoted replays.

The replay 05 is first used as a control replay for the purpose of increasing the types of condition devices by overlapping a plurality of replays. In this embodiment, the replay B2 , B4, and B6. When the replays B2, B4, and B6 are won, the replay 05 as the control replay does not stop at the active line.
Furthermore, the replay 05 is secondly used as a rare replay and corresponds to a replay C (replay 05) of a condition device described later. At the time of replay C winning, a lottery regarding the AT (initial lottery, continuous lottery, extra lottery) is executed under certain conditions (FIGS. 16 and 19 described later).

The replay 06 is first used as a replay (replay D) having the possibility of overlapping with 1BB (FIG. 12 described later).
Furthermore, the replay 06 is secondly used as a rare replay and corresponds to a replay D (replay 06) of a condition device described later. When Replay D is won, a lottery regarding the AT (first lottery, continuous lottery) is executed under certain conditions (FIG. 16 to be described later).

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 4 to 7, the small combination includes small combinations 01 to 31 (portions “9” to “63”). Note that the number of payouts for the small roles 01, 30 and 31 is set to eight, and the number of payouts for the small roles 02 to 25 is set to one. Further, the payout number of the small combinations 26 to 29 is set to three.

The small combinations 01 to 29 are included in the condition device of the so-called push order bells (small combinations A1 to C6).
The small combinations 30 and 31 are used as rare small combinations, and are set so that an AT lottery or the like is performed when winning. In particular, in the combination of symbols of the small role 30, the symbol of the left reel 31 is “cherry”.

  Special figures 01 to 03 are not the roles themselves as described above, but when the winning combination is missed when the push order is incorrect when winning the small roles A1 to B6 (when the winning combination is not won) It is a combination of symbols that appear. Further, the special figure is a combination of symbols that shifts RT (shifts to RT1 in this embodiment) when the symbol combination stops at the effective line in a specific RT (non-RT or RT2 in this embodiment). .

In each of the above-mentioned combinations, if the combination of symbols corresponding to the combination does not stop on the active line in the game selected for the combination, a combination that is carried over after the next game and a combination that is not carried over are determined. .
The combination carried over is a special combination (1BB and 2BB in this embodiment). When a special role is won, in the game until the special role is won, the winning information of the special role is controlled to be carried over after the next game.

  On the other hand, the winning of special roles is carried over, while small roles and replays other than special roles are not carried over. In the lottery of the condition device, when winning a small combination or replay, the winning combination is valid only in the current game, and the winning is not carried over after the next game. That is, in the game won for these winning combinations, the reel 31 is controlled to stop so that a combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination can be won, but at the end of the game regardless of whether or not the winning combination is won. The right to the elected role will cease.

  A game in which a special role is not won (a game in which a special role is not carried over) is referred to as “non-inside”. In addition, a game in which a special role has been won in a game before the previous game but the selected special role has not been won (during a game in which the special role is carried over) is referred to as “inside”. In this embodiment, the game won for the special role is included in the “non-inside” (because the special role is not carried over), but the game won for the special role is “inside”. May be included.

  At the start of the game, the player operates the bet switch 40 to insert a previously stored medal, or inserts a medal from the medal insertion slot 43, and operates (turns on) the start switch 41. When the start switch 41 is operated, a signal generated at that time is input to the main control board 50. When receiving this signal, the main control board 50 (specifically, a reel control means 65 described later) controls to drive all the motors 32 and rotate all the reels 31. As the reel 31 is rotated by the motor 32 in this way, the symbols on the reel 31 are moved and displayed in the vertical direction in the display window 11 at a predetermined speed.

  Then, the player presses the stop switch 42 to stop the rotation of the reel 31 corresponding to the stop switch 42 (for example, the left reel 31 corresponding to the left stop switch 42). When the stop switch 42 is operated, a signal generated at that time is input to the main control board 50. When receiving this signal, the main control board 50 (specifically, a reel control means 65 to be described later) drives and controls the motor 32 corresponding to the stop switch 42 to stop the reel 31 related to the motor 32. I do.

  Then, the game result of the current game is displayed by the combination of symbols when all the reels 31 are stopped. Furthermore, when the combination of symbols corresponding to any of the winning combinations stops on the active line (when the winning combination of the winning combination), a medal corresponding to the winning combination is paid out.

Next, a specific configuration of the main control board 50 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 1, the main CPU 55 of the main control board 50 includes the following role lottery means 61 and the like. The following means in the present embodiment are exemplifications and are not limited to the means shown in the present embodiment.

The role lottery means 61 performs lottery (determination, selection) of the condition device (that is, the winning combination). Here, the “condition device” is a winning lottery object composed of one or a plurality of roles. For example, when one condition device is won (determined or selected), the winning combination included in the condition device is won.
Therefore, the combination lottery means 61 is also referred to as a condition device determination (lottery or selection) means, a winning combination determination (lottery or selection) means, and the like.

Also, “winning condition device” is also referred to as a role lottery result, a winning number, a winning result, or the like.
The role lottery means 61 includes, for example, a lottery random number generation means (hardware random number, etc.), a random number extraction means for extracting a random number generated by the random number generation means, and a random value extracted by the random number extraction means. And determining means for determining whether the condition device has been won or not and determining the selected condition device. Such a lottery method is the same in the following AT lottery.

  The random number generation means generates random numbers in a predetermined area (for example, “0” to “65535” in decimal numbers). The random number is, for example, a random number for which a counter that performs 1 count at 200 n (nano) sec continues to count as a cycle in a range of “0” to “65535”. While the slot machine 10 is powered on, the random number Keep counting.

  The random number extraction means extracts the random number generated by the random number generation means at a predetermined time, in the present embodiment, when the start switch 41 is operated (turned on) by the player. The determination means determines the condition device corresponding to the region to which the random number value belongs by comparing the random number value extracted by the random number extraction means with a condition device lottery table to be described later. For example, if the extracted random number value belongs to the area of the winning and replay condition device number “1” (replay A), it is determined that the replay A is won.

8 to 11 are diagrams showing the types of condition devices that are drawn by the combination lottery means 61 and the contents of winning combinations included in each condition device.
In the following description, the condition device will be mainly described, and details of the stop control of the reel 31 based on the pressing order and the operation timing (mesh) when the condition device is won will be described in the reel control means 65. .

The condition device of this embodiment is based on a “conditional condition device” that is a condition device that can carry winning information to the next game, and a “winning and replay condition device” that is a condition device that does not carry the winning information to the next game. Become.
The accessory condition device corresponds to the winning of a special combination (1BB or 2BB in the present embodiment), and includes the accessory condition device numbers “1” to “2”.
The equipment condition device number “0” corresponds to a non-winning special role, the equipment condition device number “1” corresponds to 1BB winning, and the equipment condition device number “2” wins 2BB. Equivalent to.

For example, when the replay A is won, the accessory condition device number is “0”, and the winning and replay condition device number is “1”.
When 1BB is won, the accessory condition device number is “1” and the winning and replay condition device number is “0”.
Furthermore, when 1BB + Replay D is won, the accessory condition device number is “1”, and the winning and replay condition device number is “9”.
When a special combination and a small combination or replay are won, the winning of the small combination or replay is given priority in this game (the priority can be arbitrarily set). In addition, since the winning of the small role or replay is effective only in the current game, the winning is not carried over to the next game, but the winning of the special role is carried over to the next game unless winning.

Hereinafter, the winning and replay condition apparatus will be described.
The condition device number “0” corresponds to a non-winning role (so-called “losing”).
In addition, the replay A with the condition device number “1” is the single winning of the replay 01. When Replay A is won, Replay 01 wins regardless of push order (in any push order).

The replays B1 to B6 of the condition device numbers “2” to “6” are duplicate winnings of a plurality of types of replays, and include at least one of the replays 01 or 02 and any one of the replays 03 to 04. Winning. Then, depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 42, there are a case where the replay 01 or 02 wins and a case where the replay 03 or 04 wins.
For example, in the replay B1 of the condition device number “2”, the replay 03 wins in the left middle right push order, and the replay 01 wins in the push order other than the left middle right (five ways).

  In the case of replay overlap winning, there is no concept of high / low because the replay (re-gamer) wins in any push order. However, when a replay overlap win is made in RT2, a replay that maintains the current RT is won in one pressing order, and a replay that shifts (falls) RT is awarded in the other pressing order. In addition, when a replay overlap win is made in RT1, a replay that shifts (promotes) RT is awarded in one pressing order, and a replay that shifts (falls) RT is also awarded in the other pressing order.

When replay B1 is won, the left / right / right push order corresponds to the push order to shift to RT2, so it becomes the correct (promotion) push order, and the push order other than left / right / right corresponds to the push order to move to non-RT. This corresponds to the order of pressing the incorrect answer (falling).
As for the replays B2 to B6 of the condition device numbers “3” to “7”, similarly to the replay B1, any one pressing order is the correct pressing order for winning the replay 03 or 04, and the other pressing order is the replay 01. Or it becomes an incorrect answer pressing order to win 02.

Replay C of the condition device number “8” is a single winning of replay 05. When Replay C is won, Replay 05 wins regardless of push order.
Similarly, the replay D of the condition device number “9” is a single winning of the replay 06. When Replay D is won, Replay 06 wins regardless of push order. These replays 05 and 06 have a role as a rare replay. In particular, in the present embodiment, the replay D (replay 06) is a replay that has a possibility of overlapping with 1BB. Therefore, when the replay 06 is stopped and displayed, there are a case where the replay 06 is won alone and a case where the 1BB and the replay 06 are overlapped and the replay 06 wins in this game.

In FIG. 9, the small combinations A1 to A6 of the condition device numbers “10” to “15” correspond to a so-called push order bell, and a small combination 01 (eight-piece combination) and small combinations 02 to 25 (one-piece combination). It is a duplicate winning including.
When these condition devices are selected, according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42, when the correct answer pressing order is set, “PB = 1” and a small combination 01 which is a high-level bell (eight bells) wins. On the other hand, if the order is incorrect, the small combination 02-25 (single combination) wins according to the operation timing of the stop switch 42 (the position of the reel 31 at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated). And a case where none of the small roles wins (a case where a special figure is displayed due to missing).
When the small roles 02 to 25 win, the next game shifts to non-RT. Therefore, the small combinations 02 to 25 are RT transition small combinations. When a special figure is displayed, the process proceeds to RT1.

In FIG. 10, the small roles B1 to B6 of the condition device numbers “16” to “21” correspond to the so-called push order bells like the small roles A1 to A6, and the small roles 28 (three-sheet role). , And double winnings including small roles 02 to 25 (single-piece roles).
When these condition devices are selected, according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42, when the correct answer is pressed, the small combination 28 that is “PB = 1” and is a high eye bell (three bells) wins. On the other hand, if the order is incorrect, the small combination 02 to 25 (single combination) wins in accordance with the operation timing of the stop switch 42 (in the case of shifting to non-RT), and both are small. There is also a case where a winning combination is not won (a case where a special figure is displayed due to oversight and a transition is made to RT1).

Since the small roles A1 to A6 are paid out in the high-order winning prize, when the correct answer is pushed, the number of in (inserted number) is 3, and the number of out (paid out number) is 8. +5 ". Therefore, the number of medals increases when the correct answer is in the pushing order, and the condition device decreases the number of medals when the answer is incorrect (the number of payouts is 1 or 0).
On the other hand, since the small roles B1 to B6 are paid out at the time of high-rank winning, when the correct answer is pushed, the number of in (inserted number) is 3, and the number of out (paid out number) is 3. The difference sheet number is “± 0 sheet”. Therefore, when the correct answer is the push order, the number of medals is maintained as it is, and when the incorrect answer is the push order (the payout number is 1 or 0), the condition device decreases the number of medals.

In FIG. 11, the small roles C1 to C6 of the condition device numbers “22” to “27” correspond to so-called push order bells as in the small roles A1 to A6, and at least of the small roles 26 to 29. Duplicate winnings including two.
When winning the small combination C1 to C6, depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 42, any of the small combinations 26 to 29 included in the selected condition device wins regardless of the pressing order. Regardless of the operation timing of the stop switch 42, any of the pressing orders is “PB = 1”, and any of the small combinations 26 to 29 wins a prize (ie, there is no special drawing display). Furthermore, since the payout numbers of the small roles 26 to 29 are all three, when these condition devices are selected, three ins and three outs are obtained.

  Then, when winning the small combination C1 to C6, the small combination to be won depends on the pressing order of the stop switch 42. As shown in FIG. 11, when the small combination 28 or 29 wins, RT is not shifted. On the other hand, when the small combination 26 or 27 wins, it shifts to non-RT. Therefore, the small combinations 26 and 27 become RT transition small combinations.

The small combination D1 of the condition device number “28” has a role as a so-called rare small combination, and when the small combination D1 is won, a lottery regarding the AT is executed. The small role D1 is a winning combination of the small roles 30 and 31, and is set to “PB = 1” by adding the combinations of symbols of both roles.
Similarly to the small role D1, the small role D2 with the condition device number “29” has a role as a so-called rare small role, and when the small role D2 is won, a lottery regarding the AT is executed. The small role D1 is a single winning of the small role 30. Although the details of the combination of symbols of the small role 30 will be described later, since “PB ≠ 1” is arranged, when the small role D2 is won, the small role 30 can be won and cannot be won ( To have a case.
Furthermore, the small combination E having the condition device number “30” is a conditional device that is randomly selected in the RB game in the 1BB game, and is a double winning combination of the small combination 01 to the small combination 31.

FIG. 12 shows the winning probabilities determined by the condition device lottery table when the condition device lottery means 61 performs the lottery of the condition device, and the role condition device, winning and replay condition device for each RT, and the winning It is a figure which shows a probability (numerical value).
The conditional device lottery table defines the winning probability of the conditional device for each RT. The numerical value shown in FIG. 12 is a value for the number “65536”. For example, the probability number “284” of 1BB displayed in the top column indicates that the winning probability is “284/65536”.

In FIG. 12, the two condition devices from the top indicate the accessory condition device numbers “1” to “2”. Further, the third and subsequent condition devices from the top indicate winning and replay condition device numbers “1” to “30”.
As shown in FIG. 12, RT of this embodiment has non-RT, RT1, RT2, RT3, 1BB game, and 2BB game.

Non-RT, RT1, and RT2 are not inside, and RT3 is inside.
As a result, for non-RT, RT1, and RT2 (non-inside), the special role lottery is performed, so the accessory condition device numbers “1” to “2” are selected (the probability figure is “1” or more). Set to).
Further, the accessory condition device number “1” (1BB) and the winning and replay condition device “9” (replay D) are set to have a case where the winning combination is repeated. The number of the winning combination of 1BB and Replay D is set to “163” as shown in FIG. Therefore, the number of the 1BB single winning is “284”, and the number of the replay D single winning is “163”.
Also, in the RT3, 1BB game, and 2BB game, the accessory condition device is not drawn.

Non-RT, RT1, RT2, and RT3 all mean lottery states with different types (numbers) and / or winning probabilities of at least one lottery object, and therefore, replays that are subject to lottery in these four RTs. The winning probabilities are different.
In RT3 which is inside, only replay A is drawn by lottery.

Further, in non-RT, RT1, and RT2, replay D is drawn by lottery. Furthermore, the replay C is drawn only at RT2.
Here, although details will be described later, in the present embodiment, a lottery regarding AT is executed when a rare replay (replay C and replay D) is won, but a lottery regarding AT is not performed after becoming RT3 (inside). .
However, if a rare play is displayed after the transition to RT3, the player may have an impression that the player has drawn the AT lottery target role under RT where AT lottery is not performed, and has made a wasteful withdrawal. is there. Therefore, after the transition to RT3, the rare replay lottery itself is not performed and the rare replay is not displayed in RT3.

  In addition, in order to prevent the rare replay from being displayed after the transition to RT3, the replay C and the replay D may be set to a condition device that does not win the special role in the non-internal state (in this embodiment, the replay C is set that way). By doing in this way, when replay C or replay D is won when moving to RT3 in the interior, the conditional device becomes “special role (for example, 1BB) + replay C (or replay D)”. The condition apparatus is different between the inside and the inside. The stop control of the reel 31 can be changed using such a difference in the condition device. However, as in this embodiment, when it is set so that the special winning combination is duplicated in the non-inside, the condition device is the same in the non-inside and inside, so the stop control of the reel 31 is changed. I can't do it. For this reason, as described above, it is preferable to prevent the rare replay from being displayed in RT3 by not performing the rare replay lottery itself after the transition to RT3.

When comparing non-RT and RT3, a probability value (326) corresponding to the winning of Replay D is allocated to Replay A in RT3. For this reason, when comparing non-RT and RT3, the winning probability of the combined replay is the same (probability number “9141”) for non-RT and RT3.
The reason for this setting is that the winning probability of replay (the number and type of replays to be won) can be made different between different RTs.

In non-RT, replay A and replay D are provided as condition devices corresponding to winning of replay, and other replays are not drawn.
In RT1 and RT2, replay A is not drawn, but replays B1 to B6 are drawn.
Replay C is drawn only at RT2. In RT2, the replay C lottery is performed, and when the replay C is won, a lottery regarding the AT is performed.

Also, RT2 is set to have the highest replay win probability than other RTs (replay sum is a probability figure of “42763” and a win probability of about “1 / 1.5”). Accordingly, when the payout number at the time of replay winning is counted as “3” (the inserted number is “3”), RT2 has the highest expected value of the medal payout number than other RTs. Therefore, it can be said that RT is more advantageous to the player than other RTs. In particular, since RT2 is an RT that is controlled so as to stay in the AT, the winning probability of replay is set to be the highest.
In the 1BB game and the RB game of the present embodiment, replay is not drawn by lottery. It is also possible to draw lots of condition devices including replays in 1BB games and RB games.

The winning probabilities of the small roles A1 to C6 and the small roles D1 and D2 corresponding to the push order bells are set to the same probability in non-RT, RT1, RT2, and RT3 which are non-special games.
In the 1BB game and the 2BB game, the small role A1 to the small role D2 are not drawn.
In the 1BB game, only the small role E is drawn. Since the probability figure is “65536”, the winning probability is “1”.
In the 2BB game, the lottery of the condition device is not performed. However, in the 2BB game, the winning flags of all the small combinations of the small combination E, that is, the small combination 01 to the small combination 31, are turned on. Thereby, it becomes a game in which any small combination can win a prize.

Returning to FIG.
The winning flag control means 62 controls on / off of winning flags corresponding to each combination based on the lottery result by the combination lottery means 61. In this embodiment, a winning flag is provided for each combination for all combinations. When any of the condition devices is won in the lottery by the combination lottery means 61, the winning flag of the combination included in the condition device is turned on (the winning flag is set).

For example, in a non-internal game, when the replay B1 is won, the two winning flags Replay 01 and Replay 03 included in the condition device are turned on, and the winning flags of the other roles are turned off.
Similarly, in a non-inside medium game, when winning a small combination A1, five winning flags of small combination 01, small combination 10, small combination 11, small combination 18 and small combination 19 included in the condition device are displayed. The winning flag for other roles is turned off.

Furthermore, as mentioned above, winnings for small roles other than special roles and replays will not be carried over, so even if you win a small role or replay in this game and the winning flags for these roles are turned on, At the end, the winning flag is turned off.
On the other hand, since the winning of the special role is carried over, when the special role is won in the game this time and the winning flag related to the selected special role is turned on once, the state of being on is kept until the special role is won. It is maintained and turned off when the special role wins.

For example, when the winning lottery means 61 wins 1BB alone, in the current game, the 1BB winning flag is turned on. When 1BB is not won in the current game, the 1BB winning flag is kept on.
In addition, when winning the small role A1 in the next game, in addition to 1BB carrying over the winning, a total of six winnings including a small role 01, a small role 10, a small role 11, a small role 18, and a small role 19 When the flag is turned on and 1BB does not win at the end of the game this time, the winning flag of 1BB is kept on, and the small role 01, the small role 10, the small role 11, the small role 18 and the small role 19 The winning flag will be off.

The push order instruction number selection means 63 selects the push order instruction number based on the lottery result of the condition device by the combination lottery means 61.
FIG. 13 is a diagram showing a push order instruction number table.
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 13, each condition device has a unique push order instruction number. For example, the push order instruction number corresponding to Replay A is “A0”, and the push order instruction number corresponding to the small combination A1 is “A7”. The push order instruction numbers include “A0” to “A9”.

FIG. 14 is a diagram showing the relationship between the push order instruction number, the push order advantageous to the player, and the display contents 1 and 2. The push order instruction number “A0” does not have a push order that is advantageous to the player (the push order does not cause any advantage / disadvantage, that is, the push order does not matter).
In addition, the push order instruction numbers “A1” to “A9” each have a push order that is advantageous to the player. For example, the advantageous pushing order corresponding to the pushing order instruction number “A2” is right and left, and the advantageous pushing order corresponding to the pushing order instruction number “A9” is right first stop (right middle left or right middle). (Left).

  As described above, the correct (advantageous) push order when the replays B1 to B6 are won is a push order that maintains RT (RT2) advantageous to the player or a push order that does not cause the RT to fall. Specifically, this corresponds to the pressing order in which the replay 03 or 04 is won or the pressing order in which the replay 01 or 02 is not won.

In addition, the correct pressing order when winning the small roles A1 to A6 is the pressing order for winning eight winning combinations (the pressing order not allowing one winning combination to shift to non-RT, and the pressing order not shifting to RT1 by displaying special figures) ).
Furthermore, the correct pressing order when winning the small roles B1 to B6 is the pressing order for winning the three-piece winning combination (the pressing order that does not allow the one-piece winning combination that shifts to non-RT to win, and the pressing that does not shift to RT1 by displaying the special figure) Order).
Furthermore, the correct answer pressing order when winning the small roles C1 to C6 corresponds to the pressing order (not pressing the small roles 26 or 27) that wins the small roles 28 or 29 (the pressing order that does not fall into non-RT).

  In FIG. 14, “display content 1” indicates content displayed by the operation of the display function (control of the main control board 50), and is push order instruction information displayed on the acquisition number display LED 39 in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the push order instruction numbers “0” to “9” and “A” correspond to the display of “0” to “9” and “=” on the LED (7-segment display), respectively. When “=” is displayed, two of the three segments (upper, middle, and lower) in the longitudinal direction of the seven-segment display (upper, middle, and lower) (in the present embodiment, the middle and lower) are turned on. (See FIG. 22).

“Display contents 2” indicates contents displayed by the control of the sub-control board 80, and in this embodiment, is the correct answer pressing order displayed on the image display device 23.
“Operation of the display function” means display using the acquisition number display LED 39 by the main control board 50, and the display by the control of the sub-control board 80 corresponds to “operation of display function” of the present invention. Is not included.
For example, when the winning and replay condition device “10” is won, the push order instruction number “A7” is selected, and “= 7” is displayed on the acquisition number display LED 39. Further, on the image display device 23, for example, “1 ○○” or the like is displayed on the image so that the player can understand that it is the first left stop.

In FIG. 1, the effect group number selection means 64 is an effect group number corresponding to the selected condition device, and selects a number to be transmitted to the sub-control board 80.
As a result of lottery of the condition devices, it may be considered that the selected condition device information itself is transmitted to the sub-control board 80. However, in this embodiment, the selected condition device information itself is not transmitted to the sub-control board 80. Thereby, the sub-control board 80 cannot know the condition device number won in the current game.

  On the other hand, on the main control board 50 side, an effect group number corresponding to the selected condition device is determined in advance. Then, after lottery of the condition device, the effect group number corresponding to the selected condition device is selected, and the effect group number is transmitted to the sub-control board 80. When the sub-control board 80 receives the effect group number selected in the current game, the sub-control board 80 can select and output the effect corresponding to the effect group number.

FIG. 15 is a diagram showing an effect group number table.
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 15, each condition device has a unique production group number. For example, the production group number corresponding to winning of the small roles A1 to A6 is defined as “5”.

Therefore, the main control board 50 selects “5” as the effect group number when winning the small combination A1 as a result of the lottery of the condition device. Then, the information of the selected effect group number “5” is transmitted to the sub control board 80.
When receiving the information that the production group number is “5”, the sub-control board 80 can know that one of the small roles A1 to A6 (push order bell) has been won in the current game. Thereby, the winning effect of the bell can be output.

  However, even if the sub-control board 80 receives the information indicating that the effect group number “5” has been won, the correct push order cannot be known unless the push order instruction number corresponding to the correct push order is received. . In this embodiment, the push order instruction numbers corresponding to the correct push order (push order instruction numbers “A7” to “A9”) are transmitted to the sub-control board 80 during AT, but are transmitted during non-AT. No (push order instruction number “A0” is transmitted). Therefore, during the AT, the sub-control board 80 can output the fact that the small roles A1 to A6 (push order bell) are won and the correct answer push order corresponding to the push order instruction number as an effect. On the other hand, during the non-AT, the sub-control board 80 is limited to the effect of winning one of the small roles A1 to A6 (bell) and cannot output the correct pressing order as the effect.

Even if the same push order instruction number is transmitted to the sub-control board 80, different effects can be output due to different effect group numbers. For example, the push order instruction number when winning the replay B1 is “A1” (left middle right), and the push order instruction number when winning the small role C1 is “A1” (left middle right) In either case, the same push order instruction number is transmitted to the sub-control board 80.
However, when the replay B1 is won, the production group number “2” is transmitted, and when the small role C1 is won, the production group number “7” is transmitted. For this reason, when the production group number “2” is transmitted, for example, it is possible to notify the correct pressing order using blue indicating replay. When the production group number “7” is transmitted, for example, a bell It becomes possible to notify the correct pressing order using the yellow color indicating.

  In FIG. 1, the reel control means 65 starts rotation of all (three) reels 31 when a rotation start command for the reels 31 is received, particularly when the start switch 41 is operated in this embodiment. To control. Further, the reel control means 65 refers to on / off of the winning flag in the current game after lottery of the condition device is performed by the winning lottery means 61, and the stop position determination table corresponding to the on / off of the winning flag. When the stop switch 42 is operated, the stop position of the reel 31 corresponding to the stop switch 42 is determined and the motor 32 is driven based on the timing when the stop switch 42 is operated. Control is performed so that the reel 31 is stopped at the determined position.

  For example, in a game in which at least one winning flag is on, the reel control means 65 selects a combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination (the combination with the winning flag turned on) within the range of the stop control of the reel 31. The reel 31 is stopped and controlled so as to be able to stop on the active line, and the reel 31 is stopped and controlled so as not to stop the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination other than the winning combination (the winning combination is off) on the effective line .

Here, “within the range of stop control of the reel 31” means the time from the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 actually stops or the amount of rotation of the reel 31 (the number of moving frames (symbols)). Means within range.
In this embodiment, the reel 31 is rotated at a speed of about 80 rotations per minute at a constant speed.
When the stop switch 42 is operated, the time from when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 is stopped is set within 190 ms. Thereby, in the present embodiment, the maximum number of moving frames from the symbol at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 stops is set to four frames.

  For example, in FIG. 2, when the left stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the first “watermelon” of the left reel 31 is located in the middle left stage, that four frames ahead, that is, up to the fifth “replay” is left. It becomes a symbol that can be stopped in the middle. Therefore, at the above-described operation timing, the symbols of No. 1 (bita stop) to No. 5 (4 frames) are symbols that can be stopped at the middle left.

However, the present invention is not limited to the above, and it is also possible to set the maximum number of moving frames to 4 frames from the symbol next to the symbol positioned on the active line at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated. In this case, for example, when the left stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the first “watermelon” of the left reel 31 is located in the middle left stage, the next symbol, that is, the second “cherry” Up to the 6th “watermelon”, which is the 4 frames ahead, is a symbol that can be stopped in the middle left. Therefore, at the above-described operation timing, the symbols Nos. 2 to 6 are symbols that can be stopped at the left middle stage.
In the following description, it is assumed that the maximum number of moving frames is 4 frames from the symbols positioned on the effective line at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated.

  First, at the moment when the operation of the stop switch 42 is detected, if any of the symbols within the range of the stop control of the reel 31 is a symbol to be stopped at a predetermined effective line, the stop switch 42 is operated. In addition, the design is controlled to stop at a predetermined effective line.

  That is, if the reel 31 is stopped immediately at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated, the stop control of the reel 31 is stopped until the reel 31 is stopped when the symbol related to the winning combination does not stop at a predetermined effective line. By controlling the rotational movement of the reel 31 within the range, the symbol related to the winning combination is controlled to stop as much as possible on the predetermined effective line (retraction stop control).

Conversely, if the reel 31 is stopped immediately at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated, if the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination is stopped on the effective line, the reel 31 is stopped when the reel 31 is stopped. By controlling the rotational movement of the reel 31 within the range of 31 stop control, the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination is controlled so as not to stop on the effective line (kicking stop control).
Furthermore, in a game in which a plurality of winning combinations are won, the priority order of winning combinations is determined in advance according to the pressing order of the stop switch 42, the operation timing of the stop switch 42, and the like. The highest priority drawing pull-in control is performed.

Further, the reel control means 65 detects the pressing order (operation order) of the stop switch 42. The reel control means 65 detects which one of the left, middle and right stop switches 42 is operated when the stop switch 42 is operated by the player.
When the stop switch 42 is operated, a signal indicating that the stop switch 42 has been operated is input to the reel control means 65. By discriminating this signal, the reel control means 65 detects which stop switch 42 has been operated. Then, stop control of the reel 31 corresponding to the operated stop switch 42 is executed.

  Furthermore, the reel control means 65 includes a stop position determination table for each condition device. The stop position determination table defines the stop position of the reel 31 with respect to the position of the reel 31 at the moment when the stop switch 42 is operated. In each stop position determination table, for example, when the stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the first symbol (“watermelon” in the case of the left reel 31) passes through the middle stage, how many symbols are controlled to move. The stop position is determined in advance, such as how many symbols are stopped at the middle stage.

Here, the symbol arrangement in the present embodiment will be described.
First, as shown in FIG. 2, in all the reels 31, four “replays” are arranged at intervals of five symbols. As a result, the “replay” of each reel 31 has a “PB = 1” arrangement.
Similarly, in all the reels 31, four "bells" are arranged at intervals of 5 symbols. As a result, the “bell” of each reel 31 has a “PB = 1” arrangement.
Similarly, in all the reels 31, four “watermelons” are arranged at intervals of five symbols. As a result, the “watermelon” of each reel 31 has the “PB = 1” arrangement.

Here, the symbol constituting the symbol combination of replays 01 to 06 is “watermelon”, “replay”, or “bell”. Accordingly, when the replay is won, the target symbol can always be stopped on the active line, so “PB = 1”.
Also, the combination of the symbols of the small role 01 and the small roles 26 to 29 includes any one of “bell”, “watermelon”, and “replay”. PB = 1 ”.

  In all the reels 31, any one of “red 7”, “blue 7”, “white 7”, and “black BAR” is arranged at intervals of 5 symbols. Therefore, in the total of these four symbols, “PB = 1” is arranged. That is, any one of “red 7”, “blue 7”, “white 7”, or “black BAR” is arranged at intervals of 5 symbols.

Hereinafter, the stop position determination table corresponding to each condition device will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 to 11 described above.
First, the stop position determination table at the time of winning and replay condition device winning will be described.
The non-winning table is used in a game when a winning combination is not won, and defines a combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped so that a combination of symbols corresponding to any winning combination does not stop on the active line.

  The replay A table is used when replay A is won (replay 01 is a single winner), and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, the reels are set so that the replay 01 is stopped on the active line regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42. 31 stop positions are defined. The symbols of the reels 31 related to the replay 01 and replays 02 to 06 described later have a “PB = 1” arrangement in all the reels 31. Accordingly, the replay that is always won at the time of winning the replay (when a plurality of replays are duplicated, one of the replays that is won repeatedly) always wins.

  The replay B1 table is used in the game at the time of replay B1 winning, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, the replay 03 is stopped at the effective line in the push order “left middle right”, and other than “left middle right” In the pressing order, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the replay 01 is stopped at the active line (see FIG. 8).

First, in the game using the replay B1 table, at the time of the first left stop (in the correct push order), the “bell” is stopped at the middle left. Next, at the time of the second middle stop (at this time, the correct answer in the pressing order is determined), the “replay” is stopped at the middle middle stage. At the time of the third stop on the right, the “bell” is stopped in the middle right. As a result, Replay 03 is won.
On the other hand, after the first stop on the left and the second stop on the right (the incorrect answer in the pressing order is determined at this time), the “watermelon” is stopped in the middle right. Then, at the middle third stop, the “bell” is stopped at the middle middle stage. As a result, the replay 01 is won.

On the other hand, in a game in which the replay B1 table is used, at the time of the middle first stop (at this time, the push order is incorrect), the “bell” is stopped at the middle middle. Thereafter, the “bell” is stopped at the middle left when the left stop is performed, and the “watermelon” is stopped at the middle right when the right is stopped. As a result, the replay 01 is won.
In a game in which the replay B1 table is used, when the first stop on the right (at this time, the push order is incorrect), “watermelon” is stopped in the middle right. Thereafter, the “bell” is stopped at the middle left when the left stop is performed, and the “bell” is stopped at the middle middle when the middle is stopped. As a result, the replay 01 is won.

The replay B2 table is used in the game at the time of replay B2 winning, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, the replay 03 is stopped at the active line when the pushing order is “middle left and right”, and the pushing order other than “middle left and right” At this time, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the replay 01 is stopped at the active line (see FIG. 8). The replay B1 winning combination includes a replay 05, but the replay 05 is never won in a game in which the replay B2 table is used.
In a game using the Replay B2 table, when the push order is “middle left and right”, “bell” is stopped at the middle left when stopped left, “bell” is stopped at the middle right when stopped right, and “replay” is stopped at the middle stop. ”Is stopped in the middle and middle stages. On the other hand, except for the pressing order “left / right / middle”, “bell” is stopped at the middle left when stopped left, “bell” is stopped at the middle middle when stopped, and “watermelon” is stopped at the middle right when stopped right.

The replay B3 table is used in the game when the replay B3 is won, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, the replay 03 is stopped at the active line in the pushing order “middle left and right”, and the pushing order other than “middle left and right” At this time, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the replay 02 is stopped at the active line (see FIG. 8).
In a game in which the replay B3 table is used, “replay” is stopped in the middle left at the middle first stop (in the correct push order). Next, at the time of the second stop at the left (at this time, the correct order of pushing is confirmed), the “bell” is stopped at the middle left. At the time of the third stop on the right, the “bell” is stopped in the middle right. As a result, Replay 03 is won.
On the other hand, after the middle first stop, at the time of the second right stop (the incorrect answer in the pressing order is confirmed at this time), the “replay” is stopped in the middle right. Then, at the time of the third stop on the left, “Replay” is stopped at the middle left. As a result, Replay 02 is won.

On the other hand, in a game in which the replay B3 table is used, at the time of the first stop at the left (at this time, the push order is incorrect), “replay” is stopped at the middle left. After that, “replay” is stopped in the middle middle when stopping in the middle, and “replay” is stopped in the middle right when stopping right. As a result, Replay 02 is won.
In a game in which the replay B3 table is used, at the time of the first stop on the right (at this time, the push order is incorrect), the “replay” is stopped at the middle right. After that, “replay” is stopped at the middle left when stopping left, and “replay” is stopped at the middle middle when stopping midway. As a result, Replay 02 is won.

  The replay B4 table is used in the game when the replay B4 is won, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, when the pressing order is “middle right left”, the replay 03 is stopped at the active line, and the pushing order other than “middle right left” At this time, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the replay 02 is stopped at the active line (see FIG. 8). The replay B4 winning combination includes a replay 05, but the replay 05 is not won in a game in which the replay B4 table is used.

  In a game using the Replay B4 table, when the push order is “middle right / left”, “replay” is stopped at the middle / middle level during middle stop, “bell” is stopped at the middle right when stopped right, "To the left middle. On the other hand, except for the pressing order “middle right left”, “replay” is stopped at the middle left when stopped left, “replay” is stopped at the middle middle when stopped, and “replay” is stopped at the middle right when stopped right.

  The replay B5 table is used in the game at the time of replay B5 winning, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, when the push order is “middle right”, the replay 04 is stopped at the effective line, and the push order other than “middle right” At this time, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the replay 01 is stopped at the active line (see FIG. 8).

In a game in which the replay B5 table is used, when the first stop on the right (when the correct answer is pushed), the “watermelon” is stopped in the middle right. Next, at the time of the second stop at the left (at this time, the correct answer in the pressing order is confirmed), the “watermelon” is stopped at the middle left. Then, during the middle third stop, “Replay” is stopped at the middle middle stage. As a result, the replay 04 is won.
On the other hand, after the first stop on the right, at the time of the second stop (the push order incorrect answer is confirmed at this time), the “bell” is stopped in the middle / middle stage. Then, at the time of the third stop on the left, the “bell” is stopped at the middle left. As a result, the replay 01 is won.

On the other hand, in the game using the replay B5 table, when the first left stop (the answer is incorrect in the pressing order at this time), the “bell” is stopped in the middle left. After that, the “bell” is stopped at the middle middle when the vehicle is in the middle stop, and the “watermelon” is stopped at the middle right when the right is stopped. As a result, the replay 01 is won.
In a game in which the replay B5 table is used, at the time of the middle first stop (at this time, the push order is incorrect), the “bell” is stopped at the middle right. Thereafter, the “bell” is stopped at the middle left when the left stop is performed, and the “watermelon” is stopped at the middle middle when the middle is stopped. As a result, the replay 01 is won.

The replay B6 table is used in the game at the time of replay B6 winning, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, when the push order is “right middle left”, the replay 04 is stopped at the active line, and other than “right middle left” In the pressing order, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the replay 01 is stopped at the active line (see FIG. 8). The replay B6 winning combination includes a replay 05, but the replay 05 is not won in a game in which the replay B6 table is used.
In a game in which the replay B6 table is used, in the push order “right middle left”, “watermelon” is stopped at the middle right when stopping right, “replay” is stopped at the middle middle when stopping right, and “ Stop "Watermelon" in the middle left. On the other hand, except for the push order “right middle left”, “bell” is stopped at the middle left when stopped left, “bell” is stopped at the middle middle when stopped, and “watermelon” is stopped at the middle right when stopped right .

  The replay C table is used in the game when the replay C is won, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, the replay 05 is stopped at the active line regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42 (see FIG. 8). The stop position of the reel 31 is determined. As shown in FIG. 4, the replay 05 has a combination of symbols matching “watermelon”, and apparently has a combination of symbols of rare small roles, but is actually one of the replays.

  The replay D table is used in the game when the replay D is won, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, the replay 06 is stopped on the active line regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42 (see FIG. 8). The stop position of the reel 31 is determined. As shown in FIG. 4, the replay 06 has a chance-like stop form that becomes a “watermelon” slippage (a slippage after the “watermelon” temper), but is actually one of the replays.

Next, the stop position determination table at the time of winning the small role (push order bell) will be described.
In the present embodiment, the small combinations A1 to A6 are duplicate winnings (so-called push order bells) of the small combination 01 which is an eight-piece combination and the small combinations 02 to 25 which are one-piece combination. Thus, the following method is mentioned as stop control of the reel 31 when a plurality of small combinations having different payout numbers are won in duplicate.
As the first priority, when all of the symbols constituting the winning symbol combination (of the reel 31) can be stopped on the active line, the reel 31 is stopped at that position.

Next, when it is not possible to “stop all of the symbols that make up the winning symbol combination on the active line” (when the first priority cannot be adopted), the second priority is set to “number priority” ”Or“ number priority ”, the reel 31 is controlled to stop.
Here, the “number priority” is to stop (pull in) the symbol of the reel 31 that constitutes the symbol combination having the largest number of payouts among the combinations of symbols that are selected in duplicate, with priority on the line. Say. For this reason, when winning a small combination 01-25, the small combination 01 corresponds to a combination of symbols having the largest number of payouts.
On the other hand, “number priority” means that the symbols on the reel 31 are stopped on the effective line so that the number of combinations of symbols that can be stopped on the effective line is maximized.

  For example, when winning the small combination A1 and making the first left stop, it is not possible to simultaneously stop all the left reels 31 related to the winning combination on the active line. Since there are a plurality of types of symbols on the left reel 31 of the small roles 01, 10, 11, 18, and 19, there is only one effective line, so only one type of symbol can be stopped on the effective line. is there.

Therefore, when the small combination A1 to A6 is won, the reel 31 is controlled to stop according to either number priority or number priority. In the present embodiment, the reels are controlled to stop with priority on the number of sheets when the correct answer is in the pressing order, and the reels 31 are controlled to stop with priority on the number when the answer is incorrect in the pressing order. When the reels are stopped and controlled with priority given to the number, the eight-piece combination is not awarded, and one-piece combination can be won (so that it may be missed).
Thus, the operation mode of the stop switch 42 is such that priority is given to the number of sheets in a specific pressing order (correct answer pressing order in the present embodiment), and priority is given to the number in other pressing orders (incorrect answer pressing order in the present embodiment). The priority given to the number of sheets or the priority on the number is referred to as “number / number priority”.

Here, the case of winning the small role A1 will be described as an example.
As shown in FIG. 9, when winning the small combination A1, the small combinations 01, 10, 11, 18, and 19 are selected and the combination of symbols is as follows.
Small role 01: "Replay"-"Bell"-"Replay" (8 photos)
Small part 10: "Red 7"-"Replay"-"Red 7" (1 sheet)
Small part 10: "Red 7"-"Replay"-"Blue 7" (1 sheet)
Small part 11: "Red 7"-"Replay"-"White 7" (1 sheet)
Small part 11: "Red 7"-"Replay"-"Black BAR" (1 sheet)
Small part 18: "Red 7"-"Red 7"-"Bell" (1 sheet)
Small part 18: "Red 7"-"Blue 7"-"Bell" (1 sheet)
Small part 19: "Red 7"-"White 7"-"Bell" (1 sheet)
Small part 19: "Red 7"-"Black BAR"-"Bell" (1 sheet)

  When priority is given to the number of sheets at the first left stop (in the correct push order), the left reel 31 is controlled to stop so that the small role 01 is won. Therefore, when the left reel 31 is stopped, “replay” is enabled. Stop at line (middle left). Since the reel 31 is controlled to stop in the middle and the right stop, priority is given to the number of reels. Therefore, the “bell” is stopped at the effective line (middle middle) at the middle stop and the “replay” is activated at the right line (middle right) To stop.

  On the other hand, when priority is given to the number at the middle first stop (when pressing order is incorrect), if “Replay” is stopped at the active line, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped at the active line is four. And become the maximum. Therefore, when the number priority is performed at the time of the middle first stop, the “replay” (the symbol related to the small role 10 or 11) is stopped at the active line (middle middle). After the middle first stop, at the time of left and right stop, if the symbol related to the small combination (small combination 10 or 11) that can be won by the number priority can be stopped on the effective line, the symbol is stopped on the effective line. When the symbol cannot be stopped at the active line, the symbol is stopped so that any special symbol stops at the active line.

Also, when priority is given to the number at the time of the first stop on the right (at the time of incorrect push order), if the “bell” is stopped on the active line, the number of symbol combinations that can be stopped on the active line is 4. And become the maximum. Therefore, when performing the number priority at the time of the first stop on the right, the “bell” (the symbol related to the small part 18 or 19) is stopped on the effective line (the middle right). After the first stop on the right, at the time of the left and middle stops, if the symbol related to the small combination (small combination 18 or 19) that can be won by the number priority can be stopped on the effective line, the symbol is stopped on the effective line. When the symbol cannot be stopped at the active line, the symbol is stopped so that any special symbol stops at the active line.
In the present embodiment, at the time of the first stop, it is set so as to draw the symbol “PB = 1” at the time of the first stop and at the time of both the correct answer and the incorrect answer.
The above-described stop control of the reel 31 is common when winning the small roles A1 to A6.

  Although details will be described later, there is no RT transition when the small combination 01 is won by the correct pressing order when winning the small combination A1 to A6. On the other hand, when a single winning combination is won due to an incorrect answer in the pressing order, when the player is staying at an RT other than the non-RT, the next game is shifted to the non-RT. Further, when a special figure is displayed due to an incorrect answer in the pressing order, when staying in an RT other than RT1 (including non-RT), the game shifts to RT1 from the next game.

The small role A1 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role A1, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the first left stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 01 is won, When the pressing order is middle first stop (when pressing order is incorrect), the small role 10 or 11 is won or the role is lost, and when the pressing order is right first stop (when pressing order is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 18 or 19 is won or the combination is lost (see FIG. 9).
First, in a game in which the small role A1 table is used, at the time of the first left stop (in the correct push order), the “replay” is stopped in the middle left with priority on the number. Thereafter, at the time of middle and right stop, “bell” and “replay” are stopped at the middle middle and right middle, respectively. Thereby, the small role 01 wins.

In the game using the small role A1 table, at the time of middle first stop (when the push order is incorrect), “Replay”, which is a symbol related to the small role 10 or 11, is stopped at the middle and middle levels due to the number priority. (PB = 1).
In addition, at the time of the left stop after the middle first stop, when “red 7” that is the symbol related to the small role 10 or 11 can be stopped at the left middle stage, “red 7” is stopped at the left middle stage. As shown in FIG. 2, since the left reel 31 has one “red 7”, when the left reel 31 is randomly stopped, “red 7” is stopped at the left middle stage. Probability of being “1/4”. On the other hand, when “Red 7” cannot be stopped at the middle left, “Bell” is stopped at the middle left.
Furthermore, at the time of the right stop after the middle first stop, the symbols “red 7”, “blue 7”, “white 7”, and “black BAR” relating to the small role 10 or 11 are stopped in the middle right. As described above, the sum of these four symbols is “PB = 1” arrangement (5 symbol intervals of 4 symbols), so that any of these symbols can always be stopped in the middle right.

Further, in the game using the small combination A1 table, at the time of the first stop on the right, the “bell” which is the symbol related to the small combination 18 or 19 is stopped in the middle right (PB = 1). Next, at the time of the left stop after the first stop on the right, when “Red 7”, which is a symbol related to the small part 18 or 19, can be stopped at the middle left, “Red 7” is stopped at the middle left, If “7” cannot be stopped at the middle left stage, “Bell” is stopped at the middle left stage.
Furthermore, at the time of the middle stop after the first right stop, any one of “red 7”, “blue 7”, “white 7”, and “black BAR” is stopped in the middle middle stage.

As described above, in the game using the small combination A1 table, the small combination 01 wins (PB = 1) at the time of the first left stop (in the correct push order).
Further, at the time of the middle first stop, “red 7”-“replay”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR” (“/” indicates “or”. The same shall apply hereinafter) is the effective line. Stop and win a small role 10 or 11 (probability “1/4”), or special figure 02 “Bell”-“Replay”-“Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR” Stops (probability “3/4”).
Furthermore, at the time of the first stop on the right, “Red 7”-“Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR”-“Bell” will stop at the active line and will be awarded the small role 18 or 19 ( Probability “1/4”), or “bell”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR”-“bell”, which is special figure 01, stops (probability “3/4”).

The small role A2 table is used in the game when winning the small role A2, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the first left stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 01 is won, When the pushing order is middle first stop (when pushing order is incorrect), the small role 12 or 13 is won or the role is lost, and when the pushing order is right first stop (when pushing order is wrong) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 20 or 21 is won or the combination is lost (see FIG. 9).
In a game using the small combination A2 table, the stop control of each reel 31 at the time of the first left stop is the same as that of the small combination A1 table.

Further, in the game using the small role A2 table, at the time of middle first stop, “Replay” is stopped at the middle middle stage (PB = 1). Furthermore, at the time of the left stop after the middle first stop, when “Blue 7”, which is the symbol related to the small role 12 or 13, can be stopped at the left middle stage, “Blue 7” is stopped at the left middle stage. As shown in FIG. 2, the left reel 31 is provided with one “blue 7”. Therefore, when the left reel 31 is randomly stopped, “blue 7” is stopped at the left middle stage. The probability of being “1/4” is “1/4”. On the other hand, when “blue 7” cannot be stopped at the middle left, “bell” is stopped at the middle left.
Furthermore, at the time of a right stop after the middle first stop, the symbols “red 7”, “blue 7”, “white 7”, and “black BAR” relating to the small role 12 or 13 are stopped in the middle right. In this case, “PB = 1” as in the above-described small combination A1 table.

Further, in the game using the small role A2 table, at the time of the first stop on the right, the “bell” which is the symbol related to the small role 20 or 21 is stopped in the middle right (PB = 1).

In addition, during the middle first stop, “Blue 7”-“Replay”-“Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR” stops on the active line, and the winning combination 12 or 13 is won (probability “1/4”) or “bell”-“replay”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR” which is the special figure 02 stops (probability “3/4”).
Furthermore, at the time of the first stop on the right, “Blue 7”-“Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR”-“Bell” stops at the active line, and the small role 20 or 21 is won ( Probability “1/4”), or “bell”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR”-“bell”, which is special figure 01, stops (probability “3/4”).

The small role A3 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role A3, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is medium first stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 01 is won, When the push order is the first stop on the left (when the answer is incorrect), the small role 02 or 03 is won or the role is lost. When the push order is the first stop at the right (when the answer is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 20 or 21 is won or the combination is lost (see FIG. 9).
In the game using the small combination A3 table, the stop control of each reel 31 at the time of the middle first stop is the same as the small combination A1 table.

Further, in a game using the small role A3 table, at the time of the first left stop, the “bell” that is a symbol related to the small role 02 or 03 is stopped in the middle left (PB = 1). Further, at the time of the middle stop after the first left stop, if “red 7” that is the symbol related to the small part 02 or 03 can be stopped at the middle middle stage, “red 7” is stopped at the middle middle stage. As shown in FIG. 2, one “red 7” is provided on the middle reel 31, so when the middle reel 31 is randomly stopped, “red 7” is stopped at the middle and middle stages. The probability of being “1/4” is “¼”. On the other hand, when “Red 7” cannot be stopped in the middle / middle stage, “Replay” is stopped in the middle / middle stage.
Furthermore, at the time of the right stop after the first left stop, the symbols “red 7”, “blue 7”, “white 7”, and “black BAR”, which are related to the small role 02 or 03, are stopped in the middle right. In this case, “PB = 1” as in the above-described small combination A1 table.

Further, in the game using the small role A3 table, at the time of the first right stop, the symbol “bell” relating to the small role 22 or 23 is stopped in the middle right (PB = 1). Next, at the time of the left stop after the first stop on the right, when the “white 7” that is the symbol related to the small part 22 or 23 can be stopped in the middle left, “white 7” is stopped in the middle left, If “7” cannot be stopped at the middle left stage, “Bell” is stopped at the middle left stage. As shown in FIG. 2, since the left reel 31 has one “white 7”, when the left reel 31 is randomly stopped, “white 7” is stopped at the left middle stage. The probability of being “1/4” is “1/4”.
At the time of the middle stop after the first right stop, any one of “red 7”, “blue 7”, “white 7”, and “black BAR” is stopped in the middle middle stage.

As described above, in the game using the small combination A3 table, the small combination 01 wins (PB = 1) at the time of the middle first stop (at the time of pushing correct answer).
In addition, at the time of the first stop on the left, “Bell” − “Red 7” − “Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR” stops at the active line and wins the small role 02 or 03 (probability “1/4”) or “bell”-“replay”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR” which is the special figure 02 stops (probability “3/4”).
Furthermore, at the time of the first stop on the right, “White 7” − “Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR” − “Bell” stops at the active line, and the winning combination 22 or 23 is won ( Probability “1/4”), or “bell”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR”-“bell”, which is special figure 01, stops (probability “3/4”).

The small role A4 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role A4, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the middle first stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 01 is won, When the pressing order is the first stop on the left (when the answer is incorrect), the small role 04 or 05 is won or the role is lost. When the pressing order is the first stop at the right (when the answer is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 24 or 25 is won or the combination is lost (see FIG. 9).
In a game using the small combination A4 table, the stop control of each reel 31 at the time of the middle first stop is the same as the small combination A1 table.

In the game using the small role A4 table, at the time of the first left stop, the “bell” which is the symbol related to the small role 04 or 05 is stopped in the middle left (PB = 1). Further, at the time of the middle stop after the first left stop, when “blue 7”, which is the symbol related to the small role 04 or 05, can be stopped at the middle middle stage, “blue 7” is stopped at the middle middle stage. As shown in FIG. 2, the middle reel 31 is provided with one "blue 7". Therefore, when the middle reel 31 is randomly stopped, the "blue 7" is stopped at the middle and middle stages. The probability of being “1/4” is “1/4”. On the other hand, when “blue 7” cannot be stopped at the middle middle stage, “replay” is stopped at the middle middle stage.
Furthermore, at the time of the right stop after the first left stop, the symbols “red 7”, “blue 7”, “white 7”, and “black BAR” relating to the small role 04 or 05 are stopped in the middle right. In this case, “PB = 1” as in the above-described small combination A1 table.

Furthermore, at the time of the first stop on the right, “Black BAR” − “Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR” − “Bell” stops at the active line, and the winning combination 24 or 25 is won ( Probability “1/4”), or “bell”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR”-“bell”, which is special figure 01, stops (probability “3/4”).

The small role A5 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role A5, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the first right stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 01 is won, When the pressing order is the first stop on the left (when the answer is incorrect), the small role 06 or 07 is won or the role is lost. When the pressing order is the middle stop (when the answer is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 14 or 15 is won or the combination is lost (see FIG. 9).
In a game using the small combination A3 table, the stop control of each reel 31 at the time of the first stop on the right is the same as the small combination A1 table.

Further, in the game using the small role A5 table, at the time of the first left stop, the symbol “bell” related to the small role 06 or 07 is stopped in the middle left (PB = 1). Further, at the time of the middle stop after the first left stop, if “white 7”, which is the symbol related to the small role 06 or 07, can be stopped at the middle and middle level, “white 7” is stopped at the middle and middle level. As shown in FIG. 2, since the middle reel 31 has one “white 7”, when the middle reel 31 is randomly stopped, “white 7” is stopped at the middle and middle stages. The probability of being “1/4” is “1/4”. On the other hand, when “White 7” cannot be stopped in the middle middle stage, “Replay” is stopped in the middle middle stage.

In addition, at the time of the first stop on the left, “Bell”-“White 7”-“Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR” stops at the active line and wins the small role 06 or 07 (probability) “1/4”) or “bell”-“replay”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR” which is the special figure 02 stops (probability “3/4”).
Furthermore, at the time of the middle first stop, “White 7”-“Replay”-“Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR” stops at the active line and the winning combination 14 or 15 is won ( Probability “1/4”) or “bell”-“replay”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR” which is the special figure 02 stops (probability “3/4”).

The small role A6 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role A6, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the first right stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 01 is won, When the pressing order is the first stop on the left (when the answer is incorrect), the small role 08 or 09 is won or the role is missed. When the pressing order is the middle first stop (when the pressing order is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 16 or 17 is won or the combination is lost (see FIG. 9).
In a game using the small combination A3 table, the stop control of each reel 31 at the time of the first stop on the right is the same as the small combination A1 table.

In the game using the small role A6 table, at the time of the first left stop, the “bell” which is the symbol related to the small role 08 or 09 is stopped in the middle left (PB = 1). Further, at the time of the middle stop after the first left stop, when the “black BAR” that is the symbol related to the small role 08 or 09 can be stopped at the middle and middle level, the “black BAR” is stopped at the middle and middle level. As shown in FIG. 2, the middle reel 31 has one “black BAR”. Therefore, when the middle reel 31 is randomly stopped, the “black BAR” is stopped at the middle and middle stages. The probability of being “1/4” is “¼”. On the other hand, when “black BAR” cannot be stopped in the middle / middle stage, “replay” is stopped in the middle / middle stage.
Furthermore, at the time of the right stop after the first left stop, the symbols “Red 7”, “Blue 7”, “White 7” and “Black BAR” related to the small role 08 or 09 are stopped in the middle right (PB = 1).

Further, in the game using the small role A6 table, at the time of the middle first stop, the “replay” which is the symbol related to the small role 16 or 17 is stopped at the middle middle level (PB = 1). Next, at the time of the left stop after the middle first stop, when the “black BAR” that is the symbol related to the small role 16 or 17 can be stopped in the middle left stage, the “black BAR” is stopped in the middle left stage (probability “ 1/4 "), when" black BAR "cannot be stopped in the middle left," bell "is stopped in the middle left.
At the time of right stop after the middle first stop, any one of “red 7”, “blue 7”, “white 7”, and “black BAR” is stopped in the middle right.

As described above, in a game in which the small combination 6 table is used, the small combination 01 wins (PB = 1) at the time of the first right stop (in the correct push order).
In addition, at the time of the first stop on the left, “Bell” − “Black BAR” − “Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR” stops at the active line and wins the small role 08 or 09 (probability) “1/4”) or “bell”-“replay”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR” which is the special figure 02 stops (probability “3/4”).
Furthermore, at the time of the middle first stop, “Black BAR”-“Replay”-“Red 7 / Blue 7 / White 7 / Black BAR” is stopped on the active line and the winning combination 16 or 17 is won ( Probability “1/4”) or “bell”-“replay”-“red 7 / blue 7 / white 7 / black BAR” which is the special figure 02 stops (probability “3/4”).

  At the time of winning the small roles B1 to B6, as in the case of winning the small roles A1 to A6, a plurality of types of small roles having different payout numbers are repeatedly selected, which corresponds to a so-called push order bell. However, the small roles B1 to B6 are a winning combination of a small role 28 having a payout number of 3 and a small role 02 to 25 having a payout number of 1. Also in this case, as in the case of winning the small roles A1 to A6, the small role 28 is won by the number priority in the correct answer in the pushing order, and the small roles 02-25 can be won in the number priority in the incorrect answer in the pressing order. (Similar to winning the small roles A1-A6, it may be missed.)

  The small role B1 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role B1, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the first left stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 28 is awarded, When the pressing order is middle first stop (when pressing order is incorrect), the small role 10 or 11 is won or the role is lost, and when the pressing order is right first stop (when pressing order is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 18 or 19 is won or the combination is lost (see FIG. 10).

  Similarly, the small role B2 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role B2, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the first left stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 28 is displayed. When the winning order is middle first stop (when pressing order is incorrect), the small role 12 or 13 is won or the role is lost, and when the pressing order is right first stop (incorrect pressing order) ) Is a position where the reel 31 is stopped so that the small role 20 or 21 is won or the combination is missed.

  The small role B3 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role B3, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is middle first stop (at the time of pushing order correct answer), the small role 28 is awarded, When the push order is the first stop on the left (when the answer is incorrect), the small role 02 or 03 is won or the role is lost. When the push order is the first stop at the right (when the answer is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 22 or 23 is won or the combination is missed.

  The small role B4 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role B4, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the middle first stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 28 is won, When the push order is the first stop on the left (when the answer is incorrect), the small role 04 or 05 is won or the role is lost. When the push order is the first stop at the right (when the answer is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 24 or 25 is won or the combination is missed.

  The small role B5 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role B5, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the first stop right (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 28 is awarded, When the pressing order is the first stop on the left (when the answer is incorrect), the small role 06 or 07 is won or the role is lost. When the pressing order is the middle stop (when the answer is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 14 or 15 is won or the combination is lost.

  The small role B6 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role B6, and within the range of stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is the first right stop (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 28 is awarded, When the pressing order is the first stop on the left (when the answer is incorrect), the small role 08 or 09 is won or the role is missed. When the pressing order is the middle first stop (when the pressing order is incorrect) The stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small combination 16 or 17 is won or the combination is missed.

In the above small combination B1 table to small combination B6 table, the control is performed so that the small combination 28 is won at the time of correct pressing order. That is, “replay” is stopped at the left stop, “watermelon” is stopped at the middle stop, and “watermelon” is stopped at the effective line (middle stage) at the right stop.
On the other hand, the incorrect push order in the small combination B1 table to the small combination B6 table is the same as the incorrect push order in the small combination A1 table to the small combination A6 table. Specifically, for example, the middle first stop in the game using the small role B1 table is the same as the middle first stop in the game using the small role A1 table. Further, the first right stop in the game using the small combination B1 table is the same as the first right stop in the game using the small combination A1 table.
Furthermore, RT transition at the time of pushing correct answer and incorrect answer is the same as that at the time of winning the small roles A1 to A6.

The winning combination C1 to C6 is a duplicate winning that includes any one of the small roles 26 or 27 and any one of the small roles 28 or 29.
The small roles C1 to C6 include (1) a case where at least two of the small roles 26 to 29 are included, and (2) a case where at least two of the small roles 26 to 29 and a single role are included. .
And in the case where at least two of the small roles 26 to 29 are included (the small role C1 and the small role C3), since each includes only the three-piece role, a predetermined symbol ( Control) to stop at the active line.

For example, the small role C1 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role C1, and when the pushing order is left middle right within the range of stop control of the reel 31 (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 29 is awarded. When the pressing order is other than left middle right (when the pressing order is incorrect), the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small role 27 is won.
As described above, since both of the small combinations 29 and 27 are “PB = 1”, the small combination 29 or 27 can always be awarded according to the correct answer / incorrect order.

In a game using the small role C1 table, “watermelon” is stopped at the middle left when the left first stop, and “replay” is stopped at the middle middle when the second middle stop (push order correct answer). To control the small role 29 to win. On the other hand, at the time of the second right stop after the first left stop (when the push order is incorrect), the “bell” is stopped at the middle right and the small role 27 is won.
Therefore, in the small combination C1 table, three combinations are won both in the correct answer and the incorrect answer. When the correct answer is in the push order, there is no RT transition. However, when the push order is incorrect (when the small role 27 is won), the transition from the next game to the non-RT occurs when the RT stays other than non-RT.

The small combination C2 table, the small combination C4 table to the small combination C6 table will be described later.
The small role C3 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role C3, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the push order is middle left and right (when the push order is correct), the small role 28 is awarded and the push order When is other than middle left and right (when the pressing order is incorrect), the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small role 26 is won.
In the game using the small role C3 table, “watermelon” is stopped in the middle left when the middle first stop, and “replay” is stopped in the middle left when the second left stop (in the correct push order). To control the small role 28 to win. On the other hand, at the time of the second right stop after the middle first stop (when the push order is incorrect), the “watermelon” is controlled to stop in the middle right and the small combination 26 is won.

The small role C2 winning is an overlapping winning combination of the small roles 27 and 29 and the small role 02.
here,
Small part 27: "Watermelon"-"Bell"-"Bell": 3 pieces Small part 29: "Watermelon"-"Replay"-"Replay": 3 pieces Small part 2: "Bell"-"Red 7"-" Red 7 ”: 1 sheet.
Then, in the case of winning the small combination C2, C4 to C6 in this embodiment, control is performed so that the small combination included in the condition device is won by the number priority in either the correct answer pressing order or the incorrect answer pressing order. . However, depending on the order of pressing the stop switch 42, the types of the three winning combinations to be won are varied.

First, the small role C2 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role C2, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is right and left (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 29 is awarded. When the pressing order is other than right and left (when the pressing order is incorrect), the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small role 27 is won.
Therefore, the stop control of the reel 31 is the same as the small role C1 table. In the small role C2 table, the target symbol is stopped on the effective line with priority given to the number in both the correct answer in the pressing order and the incorrect answer in the pressing order.

The small role C4 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role C4. When the pushing order is middle right and left (when the pushing order is correct) within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, the small role 28 is awarded and the pushing order When the position is other than middle right and left (when the pressing order is incorrect), the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small role 26 is won.
The small role C5 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role C5, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is in the middle left (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 28 is awarded and the pushing order Is set to a stop position of the reel 31 so that the small role 26 is won when the other than the middle left and right (when the answer is incorrect).

The small role C6 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role C6, and within the range of the stop control of the reel 31, when the pushing order is right middle left (when the pushing order is correct), the small role 28 is awarded and pushed. When the order is other than right center left (when the pushing order is incorrect), the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the small role 26 is won.
As described above, in the small combination C4 table, the small combination C5 table, and the small combination C6 table, the small combination 28 is awarded in the correct answer pressing order, and the small combination 26 is awarded in the incorrect answer pressing order.

  The small role D1 table is used in the game at the time of winning the small role D1, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the small role 30 or 31 can be won within the range of stop control of the reel 31. Here, since the symbol of the left reel 31 of the small role 30 is “cherry”, the left reel 31 is “PB ≠ 1”. Similarly, since the symbol of the left reel 31 of the small role 31 is “blank”, the left reel 31 is “PB ≠ 1”. However, since any one of “cherry” and “blank” obtained by adding them is arranged at four places at intervals of 5 symbols, “PB = 1” is added. Therefore, in a game in which the small combination D1 table is used, either the small combination 30 or 31 can always be won. The symbols of the small roles 30 and 31 and the right reel 31 are “ANY” (optional).

The small role D2 table is used in a game at the time of winning the small role D2, and determines the stop position of the reel 31 so that the small role 30 can be won within the range of stop control of the reel 31. As described above, since the small role 30 is “PB ≠ 1,” there are cases where a prize is won and cases where a prize is not won.
The small role E table is used in the game when the small role E is won, and the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that any of the small roles 01 to 31 can be won within the range of stop control of the reel 31. Is. In the present embodiment, in a game in which the small combination E table is used, the small combination 01 is controlled so that the small combination 01 is won regardless of the pressing order of the stop switch 42.

The 2BB in-game table is used in 2BB games, and wins any of the small roles 01, 30, and 31 (all 8 roles) and also wins any of these three roles. When it is impossible, the stop position of the reel 31 is determined so that the winning combination is not won.
Here, in the 2BB game of this embodiment, the lottery of the combination by the combination lottery means 61 is not performed. However, as in the case where the small combination E table is used, all winning flags of the small combinations 01 to 31 are turned on.

  Further, in the 2BB game of the present embodiment, for the left reel, the time from when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 stops is set within 75 ms. As a result, the maximum number of smooth frames in the 2BB game is set to “1”. For reels 31 other than the left reel 31, the time from when the stop switch 42 is operated until the reel 31 stops is within 190 ms, and the maximum number of sliding frames is within “4”, as in the case other than 2BB game. Is set.

In the case of stopping the left reel 31 within 75 ms from the moment when the left stop switch 42 is operated, as described above, for example, in FIG.
(1) When the left stop switch 42 is operated at the moment when the first “watermelon” on the left reel 31 is located in the middle left, the first “watermelon” and the second “cherry” next to it. Set to a symbol that can be stopped on the active line,
(2) At the moment when the left stop switch 42 is operated, the next pattern of the first “watermelon” located on the active line, that is, the second “cherry” and the next third “black BAR” And setting to a symbol that can be stopped on the active line.
When the latter is adopted, the middle and right reels 31 are set to a maximum of 4 frames on the basis of the symbol next to the symbol positioned on the effective line when the stop switch 42 is operated.

In a game using the 2BB table, when the left reel 31 is stopped, any one of “replay” (small role 01), “cherry” (small role 30), and “blank” (small role 31) is displayed in the middle left. When it is possible to stop, one of these symbols is stopped.
When “replay” is stopped in the middle left when the left reel 31 is stopped, “bell” and “replay” are stopped on the active line when the middle and right reels 31 are stopped, respectively, and the small role 01 is won. Further, when “cherry” is stopped at the middle left when the left reel 31 is stopped, the winning of the small role 30 is determined at that time. Similarly, when “blank” is stopped in the middle left when the left reel 31 is stopped, the winning of the small role 31 is confirmed at that time.
In addition, when any of the “replay”, “cherry”, and “blank” cannot be stopped at the left middle stage when the left reel 31 is stopped, each reel 31 is set so that a winning combination is not won in this game. To stop.

The 1BB table is used when a game is performed when the equipment condition device number “1” is won (1BB alone is won), or when 1BB is won before the previous game, and this game is not won, and the reel 31 is stopped. The combination of symbols when the reel 31 is stopped is determined so that the combination of symbols corresponding to 1BB is stopped on the effective line and the combination of symbols corresponding to roles other than 1BB is not stopped on the effective line. It is a thing.
Since the symbol of 1BB is “red 7” in all the reels 31 (PB ≠ 1), “red 7” cannot be stopped at the effective line unless it is pushed.

Similarly, the 2BB table is used when a game is performed when the equipment condition device number “2” is won (2BB alone is won), or when 2BB is won before the previous game, and this game is not won, and the reel 31 Within the range of the stop control, the combination of symbols corresponding to 2BB is stopped on the effective line and the combination of symbols corresponding to the role other than 2BB is not stopped on the effective line. The combination is determined.
Since the symbol of 2BB is “blue 7” in all the reels 31 (PB ≠ 1), “blue 7” cannot be stopped on the effective line unless it is pushed.

  In addition, although detailed explanation is omitted, in games where special roles and small roles or replays are won repeatedly (including the case where special roles were won before the previous game and small roles or replays were won this time) Stop control.

For example, first, priority is given to stopping the symbols of both the special roles and small roles or replays that have been won on the active line, and if both symbols cannot be stopped on the active line, the winning combination is selected. Stop control that gives priority to stopping a small role or replay symbol on the active line can be mentioned. The stop control that stops both the special role and the small role or replay on the active line is up to the second stop, and at the third stop, the special role, the small role or the replay is controlled to win. Multiple winning combinations will never be awarded.
Secondly, priority is given to stopping the symbols of both the special roles and small roles or replays that have been elected on the active line, and if both symbols cannot be stopped on the active line, they are selected. There is a stop control (opposite to the above) that gives priority to stopping the symbol of the special role on the active line.

Third, although priority is given to stopping the winning small role or replay symbol on the active line, when stopping the winning small role or replay symbol on the active line, If the winning special symbol can be stopped at the same time on the active line, stop control can be given to stop at that position.
In addition, when a special role and a small role or replay of “PB = 1” are won simultaneously (when winning simultaneously), both the symbol of the selected special role and the symbol of the small role or replay are displayed. It is not necessary to perform control for stopping on the effective line, and it is also possible to perform control so that only the small role or replay symbol of “PB = 1” is stopped on the effective line. Accordingly, since the replay is “PB = 1”, it is also possible to execute stop control for winning only the replay 06 when 1BB and replay D are simultaneously won in the present embodiment.

Returning to FIG.
The winning determination means 66 determines whether or not the combination of symbols on the reel 31 stopped on the active line matches the combination of symbols corresponding to any combination when the reel 31 is stopped (whether any combination has won a prize). Or not). The winning determination means 66 determines the symbol on the active line by detecting, for example, the angle when the motor 32 is stopped, the number of steps, and the like.

  The payout means 67 determines that the winning combination determining means 66 determines that the combination of symbols stopped on the active line when the reel 31 is stopped matches the combination of symbols corresponding to any of the winning combinations, and when the winning combination is won. Depending on the winning combination, a predetermined number of medals are paid out to the player, or credits are added. Further, at the time of replay winning, control is performed so that the number of medals inserted in the current game is automatically inserted without paying out medals.

The RT control means 68 determines whether or not the RT transition condition is satisfied when each game and all the reels 31 are stopped. When it is determined that the RT transition condition is satisfied, the RT control means 68 controls to perform the RT transition. Is.
FIG. 16 is a diagram showing an RT transition diagram in the present embodiment. As described above, the RT of the first embodiment includes non-RT, RT1 to RT3, 1BB game, and 2BB game. As shown in FIG. 12, the type (number) of condition devices to be selected and the winning probability thereof are different for each RT.

  In the present embodiment, the RT transition timing is set at the time of stop display of the symbol combination or at the time of winning the RT transition combination, that is, at all stops (when all reels 31 are stopped). Therefore, in FIG. 16, for example, during RT1, when Replay 03 wins when all reels 31 are stopped, RT shifts from RT1 to RT2 at the time of all stops. The transition from non-RT, RT1, or RT2 to RT3 may be performed based on the winning of the special role, or based on the fact that the special role was not won in the game won for the special role. You may make it perform. In the present embodiment, the transition to RT3 is made based on the fact that the special combination is not won in the game won for the special combination.

Non-internal games correspond to non-RT, RT1, and RT2. Further, the inside game corresponds to RT3.
During the execution of AT, which will be described later, the slot machine 10 is controlled so as to stay at RT2, but when a player presses the stop switch 42 in the wrong order, etc., it stays at non-RT or RT1. There is also a case.

Further, even during non-AT, there is a case where the process shifts to RT2.
First, all of the non-RT, RT1, and RT2 are non-internal games, and in these non-internal games, a lottery of condition item condition devices is performed. If the special combination is won in these RTs and the special combination is not won, the RT control means 68 determines that the RT transition condition is satisfied and shifts to RT3 corresponding to the internal game.

  It is also possible to transition to RT at the moment of winning the special role and define the game won for the special role as an internal game. However, in the present embodiment, as described above, since the RT transition condition is at all stops, the game is a non-internal middle game from the time of winning the special role (moment) until the current stop of all games. When all the games in the winning combination are stopped (when no special role has been won), the game moves to an internal game. In addition, when a special role is won in a game that has been won as a special role, the game shifts to a special game (1BB game or 2BB game) at the time of all stops of the current game. .

RT3 continues until the winning special role wins. When the RT control means 68 determines that 1BB or 2BB has won in RT3, the RT control means 68 determines that the RT transition condition is satisfied, and shifts to 1BB game or 2BB game, respectively.
When transitioning to 1BB game, it continues until the end condition of 1BB game is satisfied. In the present embodiment, the end condition for the 1BB game is set to pay out more than 264 medals. In the 1BB game, the small role E wins every game and pays out 8 games (winning of the small role 01) every game. Therefore, in the 34th game, the number of payouts exceeds 264.
The RT control means 68 determines whether or not more than 264 medals have been paid out in each game and 1BB game. When it is determined that more than 264 medals have been paid out, the RT control means 68 satisfies the end condition of 1BB game. Determine and control to shift to non-RT from the next game.

The same applies to the 2BB game. When shifting to 2BB game, it continues until the end condition of 2BB game is satisfied. In the present embodiment, the end condition of the 2BB game is set to pay out more than 55 medals.
The RT control means 68 determines whether or not more than 55 medals have been paid out in each game and 2BB game. When it is determined that more than 55 medals have been paid out, the RT control means 68 satisfies the end condition of the 2BB game. Determine and control to shift to non-RT from the next game.
Note that the game is also started from non-RT when the RWM 53 is initialized. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and RT may be maintained even when RWM 53 is initialized. Here, for example, when the RWM 53 is initialized when the special role winning is carried over, the special role winning is also maintained (carried over).

  In non-RT, the RT control means 68 continues non-RT until a special figure is displayed. In non-RT, a small combination A1 to small combination B6 are drawn, and if any of these condition devices is won and the selected small combination is missed in this game, a special figure is displayed. When the special chart is displayed, the RT control means 68 determines that the RT transition condition is satisfied, and shifts to RT1 from the next game.

  RT1 is continued until (1) replay 03 or 04 is stopped and displayed, (2) replay 01 or 02 is stopped and displayed, and (3) small roles 02 to 27 are stopped and displayed. In RT1, when the replays B1 to B6 are won and the replay 03 or 04 is stopped and displayed by operating the stop switch 42 in the correct pressing order, the process shifts to RT2 from the next game. In addition, when the replays B1 to B6 are won in RT1 and the stop switch 42 is operated in the incorrect pressing order, and the replay 01 or 02 is stopped and displayed, the next game shifts to non-RT. Furthermore, when one of the small roles 02 to 27 is stopped and displayed by winning the small role A1 to the small role B6 in RT1 and operating the stop switch 42 in the order of the incorrect answer, the next game is started. , Transition to non-RT.

RT2 is continued until (1) a special figure is displayed, (2) replay 01 or 02 is stopped and displayed, and (3) small roles 02 to 27 are stopped and displayed. In RT2, when any of the special figures (special figures 01 to 03) is stopped and displayed by winning the small part A1 to the small part B6 and operating the stop switch 42 in the order of the incorrect answer, the next time From game, transition to RT1.
Further, in RT2, when replays B1 to B6 are won and the stop switch 42 is operated in the incorrect pressing order, the replay 01 or 02 is stopped and displayed, the next game is shifted to non-RT. Furthermore, when one of the small roles 02 to 27 is stopped and displayed by winning the small roles A1 to C6 in RT2 and operating the stop switch 42 in the order of incorrect answer, Transition to non-RT.

  In the above RT transition, transition between non-RT, RT1, and RT2 is repeated during non-internal and non-AT (including an AT high-accuracy period described later). However, RT2 does not shift unless the stop switch 42 is operated in the correct pressing order of “1/6” when the replays B1 to B6 are won in RT1. Further, after the transition to RT2, when the replay B1 to B6 is won or the small switch A1 to C6 is won and the stop switch 42 is operated in the order of incorrect answer pressing, the transition is made to non-RT or RT1. For this reason, during non-AT, the probability of staying in RT2 is very small (the probability of staying is the lowest). Therefore, many non-internal and non-AT stay in non-RT or RT1.

  In this embodiment, the penalty is not set in a specific push order during non-AT, and it is not set so that it does not shift to RT2 unless it passes through a plurality of RTs from RT1, but RT2 during non-AT. It is difficult to move (stay). In this embodiment, since it is not necessary to have a plurality of RTs before shifting from RT1 to RT2, the type of replay for shifting RTs can be reduced as compared with the prior art. Thereby, the main capacity can be reduced.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the small combination A1 to B6 is won, the transition is made to non-RT when one winning combination is won, and to RT1 when the special figure is displayed. That is, a plurality of RT transition destinations are set in accordance with the stop event when the push order is incorrect when the push order is won. By setting in this way, it is possible to prevent the number of replays for shifting RT from being increased. Thereby, the main capacity can be reduced.

The AT high accuracy control means 69 determines whether or not to execute the AT high accuracy period by lottery.
In the present embodiment, an AT high-accuracy period and a non-AT high-accuracy period are provided as periods for determining the AT winning probability. The AT high-accuracy period refers to a period in which the AT winning probability is set high. In this embodiment, the AT winning probability is set to “1/30”. On the other hand, the non-AT high-accuracy period means a period other than the AT high-accuracy period, and the AT winning probability is set to “1/300”.
These winning probabilities can be changed as appropriate according to the specifications of the slot machine 1, and are not limited to the winning probabilities.
The “non-AT high probability period” includes a case where the AT winning probability is “0”. In other words, the specification is such that the AT is not won unless it is won during the AT high-accuracy period.

  The AT high-accuracy control means 69 performs lottery on the condition that it is a non-AT high-accuracy period, and does not perform lottery during the AT high-accuracy period. In addition, not only this, but also during the AT high accuracy period, a lottery to determine whether or not to execute the AT high accuracy period is executed, and when the lottery is won, stocks of the AT high accuracy period are stocked, When the AT high-accuracy period ends, the stocked AT high-accuracy period may be executed.

  Alternatively, when the AT high-accuracy period lottery is won during the AT high-accuracy period, the AT high-accuracy period currently being executed is further extended (the number of games or the upper limit payout number in the AT high-accuracy period is added). Can be mentioned. For example, when the AT high-accuracy period lottery is won during the AT high-accuracy period, the remaining number of games in the AT high-accuracy period at that time can be increased.

The AT high-accuracy control means 69 performs a lottery to determine whether or not to execute the AT high-accuracy period. When the lottery is won and the non-AT is selected, for example, it is set that the AT has been won simultaneously. To do.
Specifically, in the non-AT high-accuracy period and during non-AT, when the AT high-accuracy period is won, the AT high-accuracy period wins and the AT win is set. Then, the AT high-accuracy period is started, AT is started, and when the AT end condition is satisfied, the AT high-accuracy period and non-AT are set.

The AT high-accuracy period end condition in this embodiment is set when 1500 games are reached or when the payout number reaches 3000. Instead of setting with the number of payouts, it may be set with a difference number. Furthermore, “1500 games” and “3000 cards” are arbitrary, and the number of games and the number of payouts as end conditions for the AT high-accuracy period can be set according to the specifications of the slot machine 10.
In order to determine whether or not these AT high-accuracy period termination conditions are satisfied, AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are provided as shown in FIG.
FIG. 17 is a diagram for more specifically explaining the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b. The AT high accuracy counters 69a and 69b may be either an increment counter or a decrement counter.

  When the AT high-accuracy period is started, the AT high-accuracy counter 69a counts the number of games in the AT high-accuracy period. When the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are increment counters, the value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a is set to “0” before starting the AT high-accuracy period. Every time one game is digested, “1” is added. When the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a reaches “1500”, it is determined that the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period is satisfied. When the AT high-accuracy counter 69a is a decrement counter, “1500” is set as the count value at the start of the AT high-accuracy period, and “1” is subtracted for each game. When the count value becomes “0”, it is determined that the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period is satisfied.

The AT high-accuracy counter 69b is a counter that counts the number of (medal) payouts during the AT high-accuracy period. When the AT high-accuracy counter 69b is an increment counter, for example, when the small combination A1 is won and the small combination 01 wins, “8” is added to the count value. When the count value of the AT high accuracy counter 69b reaches “3000”, it is determined that the end condition of the AT high accuracy period is satisfied.
When the AT high-accuracy counter 69b is a decrement counter, “3000” is set as the count value at the start of the AT high-accuracy period, and the payout number is subtracted every time there is a payout. When the count value becomes “0”, it is determined that the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period is satisfied.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, when one of the AT high accuracy counters 69a and 69b satisfies the AT high accuracy period end condition, it is determined that the AT high accuracy period end condition is satisfied. For example, when the count value by the AT high accuracy counter 69a reaches “1500”, even if the count value by the AT high accuracy counter 69b does not exceed “3000”, the end condition of the AT high accuracy period is set. Judging to meet.
However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the AT high probability period may be set to end on condition that both conditions of the number of games and the number of payouts are satisfied.

  The AT high-accuracy period is set so that once it is won, it will not end unless 1500 games or 3000 end conditions are satisfied. As another method, an end (puncture) lottery for each game and AT high-accuracy period may be executed, and when the end lottery is won, the AT high-accuracy period may be ended. If the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b win the punctured lottery during the AT high-accuracy period before counting to the value satisfying the termination condition, then the count values of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are cleared.

  The AT high-accuracy period may be displayed so that the player can understand, or the player may not know. When displaying that the AT high-accuracy period is being displayed, display (lighting) control by the main control board 50 and display control by the sub-control board 80 can be cited. This point will be described later.

Regardless of whether or not it is an AT high-accuracy period, it is a period during which the display function is not operated during non-AT, and a period during which the display function is activated during AT (display function continuous operation period).
Therefore, even during the AT high-accuracy period, when it is non-AT, it will move back and forth between non-RT, RT1, and RT2, and will not continue to stay at RT2.

The AT high-accuracy flag 69c is a flag that is turned on during the AT high-accuracy period and turned off during the non-AT high-accuracy period. The AT high probability flag 69c is a flag for determining whether or not the current game is in the AT high probability period.
When the AT high-accuracy period is won in the non-AT high-accuracy period, the AT high-accuracy period is started, and counting by the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b is started, the AT high-accuracy flag 69c is turned on. When the end condition of the AT high accuracy period is satisfied, the AT high accuracy flag 69c is turned off.

The AT control means 70 performs control related to AT (AT lottery, AT execution, etc.) during the game.
First, the AT control means 70 determines by lottery whether or not to execute AT. In the present embodiment, the AT control means 70, during the non-AT high probability period, that is, when the AT winning probability is “1/300”, the replay C, the replay D, the small role D1, the small role D2 Whether or not to perform AT is determined by lottery when a rare role is won. Considering the winning probabilities of these rare roles, the AT winning probability is set to be “1/300”.

Further, the AT control means 70, during the AT high-accuracy period, that is, when the AT winning probability is “1/30”, in addition to the above rare role, when the Replay A is won, when the push order bell is won, The AT lottery is executed including the time of winning, and the AT winning probability is set to “1/300” in consideration of each winning probability.
As described above, when the AT lottery is executed based on the result lottery result, after winning the lottery by the above-mentioned role lottery means 61, the winning combination (the winning condition device) is determined, and the lottery result is the AT lottery. When it becomes the target, AT lottery is executed.

It is also possible to execute the AT lottery by the AT control means 70 so as not to be based on the result lottery result by the role lottery means 61. For example, during the AT high-accuracy period, the AT lottery is executed with every game and the winning probability “1/30”. In addition, when it is a non-AT high-accuracy period, it is possible to execute an AT lottery with every game and winning probability “1/300”.
When the AT lottery is not based on the result lottery result, the AT lottery can be performed simultaneously with the role lottery by the role lottery means 61 or before the role lottery by the role lottery means 61.

Furthermore, the AT lottery can be executed simultaneously with the lottery during the AT high-accuracy period. For example, in the case where the AT lottery and the AT high-accuracy period lottery are executed based on one random number value, “AT non-winning, AT high-accuracy period non-winning”, “AT winning, AT There are four options: “high-precision period non-winning”, “AT non-winning, AT high-precision period winning”, and “AT win, AT high-precision period winning”.
When the AT is won and the AT high-accuracy period is not selected, the AT is executed with the non-AT high-accuracy period, and after the end of the AT, the non-AT and non-AT high-accuracy period is entered.
In addition, when the AT is not won and the AT high-accuracy period is won, the AT remains non-AT, but since the AT high-accuracy period starts from the next game, the AT win probability will increase from the next game.

The AT control means 70 includes an AT counter 70a and an AT flag 70c.
FIG. 17 specifically describes the contents of the AT counter 70a. The AT of this embodiment is set to be executed until the number of payouts exceeds 480. Then, the AT counter 70a counts the number of medals in the AT in order to determine whether or not the AT termination condition is satisfied.

  Here, if the AT counter 70a wins the push order bell (in this embodiment, the small roles A1 to B6) in which the combination of symbols with different payouts is stopped according to the correct / incorrect push order, the correct answer in the push order. Regardless of whether the answer is correct or incorrect, in the game, the count value of the AT counter 70a is updated so as to subtract the number of payouts paid out in the correct answer in the pressing order. That is, in a game in which the display function is activated, control is performed so that the maximum number that the player can acquire is subtracted from the count value based on the operation of the display function (in the case of a decrement counter).

  For example, in the case where the AT counter 70a is a decrement counter, if the counter value is “300” before the game is started, and if the small role A1 is won in the game, the player presses the stop switch 42. Regardless of whether it is the correct answer pressing order or the incorrect answer pressing order, “8 (sheets)” is subtracted and the count value of the AT counter 70a is updated to “292”. Here, the update timing of the AT counter 70a is as follows: at the start of the game (immediately after the start switch 41 is operated and the condition device is selected), when all the reels 31 are stopped (the combination of symbols corresponding to the combination is stopped on the active line) Various settings such as when a medal is paid out. In this way, by performing the update based on the maximum number obtained, it is possible to prevent unintended game extension.

  When the AT counter 70a is configured to count the difference number (the number obtained by subtracting the bet number from the medal payout number), in the above example, when the count value immediately before the game is “300”, the difference number is Since it is “5”, the count value at the end of the game is updated to “295”.

  On the other hand, when it is during the AT high-accuracy period but during non-AT (when the display function is not activated), the AT high-accuracy counter 69b subtracts the number actually paid out. For example, in the AT high-accuracy period and during non-AT (when the display function is not activated), when the small combination A1 is won and one single combination (for example, small combination 10) wins, the AT high-accuracy counter 69b is a decrement counter. If there is, the count value is subtracted by “1”.

The AT counter 70a may be either an increment counter or a decrement counter.
When the AT counter 70a is an increment counter, the count value of the AT counter 70a is set to “0” before starting AT. Then, AT is started. For example, when the small role 01 wins and eight medals are paid out, the AT counter 70a is changed from “0” to “8”.

In the present embodiment, when the winning order bell is won, the AT counter 70a always updates the number of medals to be paid out as a result of giving priority to the number of the pushing order bell. It is set as follows.
For example, when the count value by the AT counter 70a is “N” before the game is started and the small role A1 is won in the game, the count value of the AT counter 70a is updated to “N + 8” at the time of the win.
Note that the update timing of the AT counter 70a is not limited to the time when the small role A1 is won, but can be variously set such as when the display function is activated (when the correct push order is displayed), when all the reels 31 are stopped, and when the medal payout ends. Can do.

  Further, in the present embodiment, since the AT counter 70a is updated as described above, for example, when the small switch A1 is won, when the stop switch 42 is not operated in the correct pressing order due to an operation mistake of the stop switch 42 of the player. The AT counter 70a is updated (for the number of payouts corresponding to the correct pressing order) even when a single winning combination is won or when a winning combination is missed (without medal payout).

When the count value of the AT counter 70a exceeds “480”, the AT control means 70 determines that the AT end condition is satisfied, and ends the AT with the game. Thereby, it becomes non-AT from the next game.
The AT flag 70c is a flag that is turned on when the AT is in operation and turned off when the AT is not in operation. The AT flag 70c is a flag for determining whether or not the current game is in AT.

When the AT is won in the non-AT and the AT is started, the AT flag 70c is turned on. When the AT end condition is satisfied (when more than 480 sheets are paid out, that is, when the count value of the AT counter 69a exceeds “480”), the AT flag 70c is turned off.
When the AT counter 70a is a decrement counter, “480” is set as the count value at the start of AT, and the payout number is subtracted every time there is a payout. When the count value of the AT counter 70a becomes “0”, it is determined that the AT termination condition is satisfied.

In the present embodiment, the AT controls to stay at RT2. For this reason, for example, when an AT is won during a non-RT or RT1 stay, there are cases where the AT is started even if it is still non-RT or RT1, and cases where the AT is started after moving to RT2. It is done.
When starting AT with non-RT or RT1, counting of the AT counter 70a is started simultaneously with the start of AT. In games that can display special charts in non-RT (when winning small roles A1 to A6 and B1 to B6), special charts are displayed without activating the display function (notifying the correct pressing order). Make it easier. However, in this case, whether or not to display the pressing order for displaying the special figure (whether or not to activate the display function) is arbitrary.

When staying at RT1, when the replays B1 to B6 are selected, the correct answer pressing order is displayed by the operation of the display function, and the process proceeds to RT2. After the transition to RT2, when the replays B1 to B6 are won and the push order bell is won, the correct push order is displayed by the operation of the display function, and control is performed so as to stay at RT2.
On the other hand, when AT is started after shifting to RT2 after winning the AT, the counting of the AT counter 70a is started when shifting to RT2 (when the game is over at the time of winning a replay 03 or 04). .

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, even if the AT high-accuracy period is won and the AT high-accuracy period is started, RT is the same as the non-AT high-accuracy period. Therefore, even during the AT high-accuracy period, similarly to the non-AT high-accuracy period, the transition between non-RT, RT1, and RT2 is continued according to the winning combination.
In addition, in both the AT high-accuracy period and the non-AT high-accuracy period, when an AT is won, control is performed so as to stay at RT2 as much as possible during the AT. For this reason, when the AT is won, the AT is started after shifting to RT2, or the AT is controlled after starting AT.

When the AT flag 70c is on (in the push order instruction state), the AT control means 70 has a display function when the push order bell (small roles A1 to C6) is won or when replay overlap (replay B1 to B6) is won. By operating, the correct answer push order is displayed.
During AT, by operating the display function, if you operate the stop switch 42 according to the display function, you can win the small combination 01 (8 sheets combination) at the time of winning the push order bell, so a special figure is displayed The small roles 02 to 27 are not won, and can stay in RT2. Furthermore, at the time of replay overlap winning, it is possible to shift to RT2 or maintain RT2.

Note that the AT high-accuracy period is not limited to this embodiment, and a specific RT (RT for an AT high-accuracy period) in which the replay winning probability is set to a high probability may be provided. When the AT high-accuracy period is won, control may be performed so that the RT shifts to RT for the AT high-accuracy period and stays at that RT until the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period is satisfied.
In this way, when staying in the RT for the AT high-accuracy period, if the AT is won during the AT high-accuracy period, the AT is started without shifting the RT.

Furthermore, during the AT high-accuracy period, the display function may be activated when the replays B1 to B6 are selected to display the correct answer pressing order, and control may be performed so as not to fall from RT2.
With the RT control during the AT high-accuracy period as described above, the AT high-accuracy period can be set to the replay high probability.

FIG. 18 is a diagram for explaining AT high-accuracy period / non-AT high-accuracy period, AT / non-AT, change in difference number, and the like.
In this example, the AT is started immediately after winning the AT, and the AT high probability period is started immediately after winning the AT high probability period. Further, in the figure, in the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b and the AT counter 70a, “◯” indicates that counting is in progress, and that other than that indicates that counting is not performed.

In FIG. 18, the non-AT high-accuracy period and the non-AT are in the beginning. In this case, the difference number gradually decreases as the game progresses.
Next, in the figure, when the AT is won at the timing “A” and the AT high-accuracy period is not won, the AT is executed while maintaining the non-AT high-accuracy period. As described above, the display function is activated during AT. In addition, RT becomes RT2 during AT. During the AT, the AT counter 70a counts the number of payouts, but the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b do not operate (not count).
During AT, the correct answer push order is notified when the push order bell is won (the display function is activated), so that the number of differences increases as the game progresses. On the other hand, when the AT ends (“A ′” in the figure), the display function is deactivated, so that the difference in number decreases as the game progresses.

  Next, in the figure, an example is shown in which the AT is won at the timing of “B” and the AT high-accuracy period is won. With the start of the AT high-accuracy period, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b start counting. Further, the AT counter 70a starts counting with the start of AT.

  Even during the AT high-accuracy period, the display function does not operate during non-AT, so the difference number decreases as the game progresses. As in this embodiment, when the AT high probability period is not in the AT, it is easy to stay at RT where the replay winning probability is set to the normal probability (for example, 1 / 7.3). The number of sheets decreases. However, it is easy to stay in an RT that is different from the non-AT high-accuracy period and non-AT when the AT high-accuracy period and non-AT, and the replay winning probability is set higher than the normal probability. With this setting, it is possible to reduce the decrease in the number of difference sheets during the AT high-accuracy period and non-AT.

In the example of FIG. 18, after starting the AT high probability period, BB (1BB or 2BB) is won in the second AT (timing “C” in the figure) and BB game is started. Yes. When BB is won during AT, the winning BB is prioritized and the BB game is executed. If BB is won during AT, AT will be suspended. Then, after the end of the BB game, the suspended AT resumes.
In addition, after the AT high-accuracy period was started, the AT high-accuracy period end condition (1500 games or 3000 cards) was satisfied during the third AT (timing “D” in the figure). An example is shown. When the end condition of the AT high probability period is satisfied, even during the AT, a game that satisfies the end condition of the AT high probability period ends the AT high probability period and the AT.

  Furthermore, when the AT is set to start after the AT is won and the symbol combination corresponding to the AT is stopped on the effective line, the AT counter 70a does not start counting only by winning the AT. . In this case, the combination of symbols corresponding to the AT stops on the active line, and when the AT is started from the next game, the counting of the AT counter 70a is started from the next game.

Furthermore, when the AT high-accuracy period is won and the combination of symbols corresponding to the AT high-accuracy period stops on the active line, when starting the AT high-accuracy period from the next game, the AT counter 69a and The count of 69b is started. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and when the AT high-accuracy period is won, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b start counting even before the symbol combination corresponding to the AT high-accuracy period stops on the effective line. May be.
In addition, when BB is won during AT, when the count of AT counter 70a is stopped when BB is won, the combination of symbols corresponding to BB stops on the effective line, and BB game is started from the next game In some cases, the counting of the AT counter 70a is stopped. In the latter case, the counting of the AT counter 70a is continued inside the BB.

Whether or not to include the number of games in the BB game and the number of payouts can be variously set in the 1500 games or 3000 as the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period. In the example of FIG. 18, since the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b continue to be counted even during the BB game, the number of games and the number of payouts during the AT high-accuracy period are updated even during the BB game. .
However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, during the BB game during the AT high-accuracy period, the counting of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b is stopped. The number and the number of payouts may not be included.

  Alternatively, the number of games during the BB game may be included in the number of games during the AT high probability period, but the number of payouts during the BB game may not be included in the number of payouts during the AT high probability period. In this case, during the AT high-accuracy period BB game, the AT high-accuracy counter 69a (the number of games) continues to be counted, but the AT high-accuracy counter 69b (the number of payouts) is interrupted.

Conversely, the number of payouts during the BB game is included in the number of payouts during the AT high-accuracy period, but the number of games during the BB game is not included in the number of payouts during the AT high-accuracy period. Good. In this case, during the AT high-accuracy period BB game, the AT high-accuracy counter 69b (the number of payouts) continues to be counted, but the AT high-accuracy counter 69a (the number of games) is interrupted.
Furthermore, when winning the BB during the AT high-accuracy period, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b continue to be counted in the game from winning the BB until winning the BB (internal). During this, counting of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b (or either one) may be interrupted.

As described above, when the BB is won during the AT high-accuracy period, the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a (the number of games) and the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69b (the number of payouts) in the game won the BB are calculated. When the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a and the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69b after C1 and BB game end are C1 ′,
C1 ′ ≦ C1
(In the case of an increment counter).
When the AT high accuracy counter 69a and the AT high accuracy counter 69b are decrement counters,
C1 ′ ≧ C1
It becomes.

Further, when the BB is won during AT, the counting of the AT counter 70a is interrupted.
Furthermore, when winning a BB during an AT, it is possible to perform a lottery to add the AT payout number (or the number of games) based on the BB winning. Furthermore, when the AT is interrupted and the game shifts to the BB game, the lottery for adding the AT payout number in the BB game (based on the case where the game is uniformly performed and the winning combination in the BB game (for example, the rare role winning)) It is also possible to do this.

Therefore, when the BB is won during the AT, the count value C2 ′ of the AT counter 70a when the AT is resumed after the end of the BB game is compared with the count value C2 ′ of the AT counter 70a in the game won the BB. Is
C2 ′ ≧ C2
(In the case of an increment counter).
When the AT counter 70a is a decrement count,
C2 ′ ≦ C2
It becomes.

FIG. 19 is a flowchart (counter update process) showing a control flow of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b, the AT high-accuracy flag 69c, the AT counter 70a, and the AT flag 70c.
Note that the processing according to this flowchart is executed at the end of each game, for example.
In the example of this flowchart, it is assumed that the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b and the AT counter 70a are decrement counters. Therefore, at the beginning of the AT high accuracy period, “1500” is set as the initial value of the AT high accuracy counter 69a, and “3000” is set as the initial value of the AT high accuracy counter 69b. At the start of AT, “480” is set as the initial value of the AT counter 70a.

First, in step S11, the main control board 50 determines whether or not it is during the AT high-accuracy period. In this determination, it is determined whether or not the AT high-accuracy flag 69c is on. When it is determined that it is on, the process proceeds to step S12, and when it is determined that it is not on, the process proceeds to step S13.
In step S12, the main control board 50 executes the update process of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b. Since the AT high-accuracy counter 69b is updated as the number of games is exhausted, each game is executed. On the other hand, the AT high-accuracy counter 69b is updated only when a small role is won (when medals are paid out). Then, the process proceeds to step S13.

In step S13, the main control board 50 determines whether AT is in progress. In this determination, it is determined whether or not the AT flag 70c is on. When it is determined that the AT flag 70c is on, the process proceeds to step S14. When it is determined that the AT flag 70c is not on, the process proceeds to step S16.
In step S14, it is determined whether or not the BB (1BB or 2BB) is operating, that is, whether or not the BB game is being performed. Although not shown in the present embodiment, a BB flag that is turned on when the BB is operating is provided, and it is determined whether or not the BB flag is turned on. When it is determined that the BB is in operation, the process proceeds to step S16. When it is determined that the BB is not in operation, the process proceeds to step S15.

In step S15, the AT counter 70a is updated. Note that the AT counter 70a is a counter that updates the number of medals paid out, and therefore is not updated when a small role has not won (no medal paid out) in the game. Then, the process proceeds to step S16.
As described above, the AT flag 70c is not updated when the BB is operating even during the AT. However, when the BB is won during the AT and the game is shifted to the BB game, the AT is interrupted. However, in the example of this flowchart, the ON state of the AT flag 70c is maintained.

  In step S16, it is determined whether or not at least one of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b is “0”. Here, when the count value of at least one of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b is “0”, the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period is satisfied. When it is determined in step S16 that at least one of the count values is “0”, the process proceeds to step S18, and an AT high-accuracy period end process is executed. On the other hand, when it is determined in step S16 that none of the count values is “0”, the process proceeds to step S17.

  In step S17, it is determined whether or not the count value of the AT counter 70a is “0”. When the count value of the AT counter 70a is “0”, the AT end condition is satisfied. When it is determined that the count value of the AT counter 70a is “0”, the process proceeds to step S19. When it is determined that the count value is not “0”, the process according to this flowchart is terminated. In step S19, the AT flag 70c is turned off. Then, the process according to this flowchart is terminated.

  On the other hand, in step S18, the AT high-accuracy flag 69c is turned off. Further, the AT flag 70c is turned off, and the AT counter 70a is set to “0” (cleared). Although not described in step S18, when one of the count values of the AT high accuracy counter 69a or 69b is “0” and the process proceeds to step S18, the count value is “0”. A process of setting the count value of the other counter not present to “0” is executed. Specifically, in step S17, for example, when the AT high-accuracy counter 69a = "0" and the AT high-accuracy counter 69b ≠ "0" and the process proceeds to step S18, the AT high-accuracy counter 69b = "0" is set. Execute the process.

In FIG. 1, the external signal transmission means 71 transmits an external signal to the external concentration terminal board 100. This external signal is a signal indicating AT start, AT end, BB game start, and BB game end.
The main control board 50 executes a game and game end check process, and updates the external signal control number at the game end check process.
In the present embodiment, the “external signal control number” is a number that takes different values depending on AT start, AT end, BB game start, and BB game end.

  Further, when the start switch 41 is operated, the external signal flag is updated so that the value corresponds to the external signal control number. After the external signal flag is updated, the external signal transmission unit 71 transmits an external signal corresponding to the external signal flag from the predetermined output port 52. When this external signal is input to the external concentration terminal board 100, it is transmitted to the hall computer. The external signal is output to, for example, a data counter.

The control command transmission means 72 transmits information (control command) necessary for the effect output from the sub control board 80 to the sub control board 80.
The control command includes, for example, a first control command and a second control command. Each of the first control command and the second control command is, for example, 8-bit 1-byte data. One control command is a pair of the first control command and the second control command. Further, the first control command is data indicating the type of control command, and the second control command is data indicating a parameter (variable).

For example, in the case of a control command indicating RT, the first control command is “33 (H)” (00110011 (B)) in the present embodiment. In addition, when the parameter of RT is, for example, RT1, it is “00000001 (B)” in the present embodiment. Therefore, the 2-byte data obtained by combining these, “00110011/00000001” (“/” indicates the interval between the first control command and the second control command, and is not actually present) is an RT control command. Is transmitted from the main control board 50 to the sub-control board 80.
As for the push order instruction number, effect group number, and accessory condition device number, the first control command is the type data and the second control command is the data stored in the RWM 53, as in the above RT. It is.

  When the condition device having the correct pressing order is selected during the AT, the pressing order instruction number corresponding to the correct pressing order is acquired and stored in the RWM 53. On the other hand, the push order instruction number is not acquired or stored in the RWM 53 except when a condition device that is in AT and has the correct push order is selected.

In FIG. 1, the sub CPU 85 of the sub control board 80 includes effect output control means 91.
As described above, the effect output control means 91 is a control command transmitted from the main control board 50, specifically, each control such as RT number, push order instruction number, effect group number, and accessory condition device number. Based on the command, at what timing (when the start switch 41 is operated, when each stop switch 42 is operated, etc.), what kind of effect is output (how the lamp 21 is turned on, blinked, or turned off) The specific effects such as what kind of sound is output from the speaker 22 and what kind of image is displayed on the image display device 23 are determined by lottery.

Then, the effect output control means 91 controls the output of the effect lamp 21, the speaker 22, and the image display device 23 according to the determination. In addition, during the special game or AT, the acquired number of games, the number of games (the number of remaining games, the number of games being executed) and the like are displayed as images. Further, during AT, the correct answer pressing order is notified (image display).
In addition, since the information of “A0” is transmitted as the push order instruction number during non-AT, the sub control board 80 does not notify the correct push order during non-AT. However, it is possible to notify the pressing order of “left middle right” as a mere effect when a condition device unrelated to the pressing order, for example, Replay A is won.

  Furthermore, it can be said that the control command of the production group number does not include information on which condition device is actually won, but includes rough winning information. For example, when the control command corresponding to the production group number “5” is received, the sub-control board 80 cannot know which of the small roles A1 to A6 is won. However, it can be known whether one of the small roles A1 to A6 is won. Therefore, it is possible to output effects such as displaying the symbol of “bell” or lighting the frame lamp with “yellow” which is the corresponding color of “bell”.

  Further, the sub control board 80 receives the push order instruction number transmitted from the main control board 50. Here, when in the push order instruction state, the push order instruction number corresponding to the correct push order is transmitted, but when not in the push order instruction state, the transmitted push order instruction number regardless of the selected condition device. Becomes “A0” (no pressing order). Then, in the push order instruction state (during AT), the effect output control means 91 notifies the correct push order corresponding to the received push order instruction number when receiving a value other than the push order instruction number “A0”. To do. For example, when a small role A1 is won in a game in AT and a control command corresponding to the push order instruction number “A7” is received, “the first stop left” which is the correct push order, or “1- ○ − Like “O”, etc., the contents that the player can easily know the correct pressing order are notified.

  In the present embodiment, the main control board 50 displays the push order instruction information (operation of the display function) separately from the notification of the correct push order by the sub-control board 80 in the push order instruction state. The push order instruction information is displayed by the acquisition number display LED 39 in the medal display device. For example, when the small combination A1 is won as described above during the AT, push order instruction information “= 7” corresponding to the push order instruction number “A7” is displayed on the acquired number display LED 39.

20 and 21 show the timing of transmitting the control command of the push order instruction number, the effect group number, and the accessory condition device number, and the display of the push order instruction information by the acquisition number display LED 39 (display function operation (on the main side). ))), And is a time chart showing notification of correct pressing order by the image display device 23 (notification on the sub-side). 20 and 21, four examples 1 to 4 are shown.
20 and 21, first, when the start switch 41 is operated by the player, the condition device lottery is performed by the role lottery means 61, and the effect group number corresponding to the selected condition device is determined. In the push order instruction state, the push order instruction number corresponding to the selected condition device is determined.

  Further, the main control board 50 transmits a control command of the push order instruction number, the effect group number, and the accessory condition device number to the sub control board 80. When the sub control board 80 is in the AT state, the sub control board 80 notifies the correct pressing order based on the received pressing order instruction number. On the other hand, the main control board 50 displays the push order instruction information corresponding to the determined push order instruction number during the AT (operation of the display function).

  In “Example 1” of FIG. 20, when the push order instruction number is determined, first, the push order instruction information is displayed by the main control board 50. Thereafter, the push order instruction number is transmitted, and then the effect group number and the accessory condition device number are transmitted. Next, the sub-control board 80 determines that the start switch 41 has been operated in response to the reception of the accessory condition device number, and notifies the correct pressing order based on the received pressing order instruction number. Both the display of the pressing order instruction information and the notification of the correct pressing order are performed until the reel 31 reaches the constant speed rotation.

  Further, the notification of the correct pressing order by the image display device 23 is performed until the third (last) stop switch 42 is operated. When the third stop switch 42 is operated, the control command is transmitted from the main control board 50 to the sub control board 80 as described above, and therefore, the sub control board 80 receives the control command to receive the third stop. It can be determined that the switch 42 has been operated. When the third stop switch 42 is operated, the notification of the correct pressing order by the image display device 23 is terminated. Of course, effects other than the correct answer pressing order, for example, image display (character display etc.) peculiar to AT are continued.

  Further, the display of the pressing order instruction information by the acquisition number display LED 39 is performed until the winning determination is performed on the main control board 50. The display of the acquisition number display LED 39 after the display of the pressing order instruction information is “00” (the upper digit and the lower digit are “0”), “* 0” (the upper digit is turned off (*), and the lower digit is “ 0 ”is displayed),“ ** ”(the upper and lower digits are turned off),“-”, and the like.

  In “Example 2” of FIG. 20, after the push order instruction number is transmitted to the sub control board 80 by the main control board 50, the push order instruction information is displayed by the acquisition number display LED 39, and then the production group number and the accessory condition Send the device number. After receiving the production group number and the accessory condition device number, the sub control board 80 notifies the correct pressing order.

  In “Example 3” of FIG. 21, after the main control board 50 transmits the push order instruction number, the production group number, and the accessory condition device number, the sub control board 80 displays the correct push order on the image display device 23. After that, the main control board 50 displays the push order instruction information at the moment (or immediately before) the reel 31 is rotated at a constant speed. In Examples 1 and 2 above, the display of the push order instruction information by the main control board 50 is performed at a timing earlier than the notification of the correct push order by the sub control board 80. On the other hand, in Example 3, the notification of the correct pressing order by the sub-control board 80 is performed at a timing earlier than the display of the pressing order instruction information by the main control board 50.

  “Example 4” in FIG. 21 performs display of the pressing order instruction information by the main control board 50 and notification of the correct pressing order by the sub control board 80 at substantially the same timing. In the case of such control, for example, the display of the push order instruction information is started after “N” ms have elapsed since the push order instruction number or the accessory condition device number is transmitted from the main control board 50 to the sub control board 80. In this way, the sub-control board 80 may be controlled to start notifying the correct push order after “N” ms have elapsed since receiving the push order instruction number or the accessory condition device number.

20 and 21 show four examples. However, when pressing order instruction information is displayed, it is preferable that the reel 31 is rotated at a constant speed after the start switch 41 is operated. In addition, it is preferable to perform push order notification from the sub control board 80 side after displaying the push order instruction information on the main control board 50 side. By setting in this way, when an incorrect push order instruction number is transmitted from the main control board 50 to the sub control board 80, or the sub control board 80 notifies a push order different from the received push order instruction number. Even in this case, since the push order instruction information by the main control board 80 has already been displayed, the player notices an error in notification by the sub control board 80 and the player is not disadvantaged. Absent.
Further, the display of the pressing order instruction information on the main control board 50 side is performed until the winning determination time, but may be performed until the third reel 31 is stopped.
Alternatively, the notification of the pressing order by the sub-control board 80 side may be performed until the winning determination time.

  Next, the case of displaying the pressing order instruction information and notifying the correct pressing order will be described more specifically. FIG. 22 is a diagram for explaining a game flow (flow from top to bottom in the figure), display of the acquired number display LED 39, and a notification example of the image display device 23. Note that the example of FIG. 22 is the timing corresponding to “Example 1” of FIG.

First, when the start switch 41 is operated, the main control board 50 displays push order instruction information on the acquisition number display LED 39. The example of FIG. 22 shows an example in which the winning combination corresponding to the push order instruction number “A1” (left middle right) is won. Therefore, the acquisition number display LED 39 displays the pressing order instruction information corresponding to the pressing order instruction number “A1”, that is, “= 1”. In this example, it is assumed that the small role C1 is won.
Then, before the reel 31 reaches constant speed rotation, the image display device 23 notifies the correct pressing order. In the example of FIG. 22, an example of displaying “123” is shown.

  Next, when the first (first) stop switch 42 is operated and the left stop switch 42 is operated, that is, in the correct pressing order, the portion corresponding to the correct pressing order of the image display device 23 is deleted. . Therefore, the display content is “−23”. On the other hand, when the operated first stop switch 42 is the middle or right stop switch 42, that is, in the incorrect answer pressing order, the notification of the correct answer pressing order is deleted at that time.

Next, when the second stop switch 42 is operated and the operated second stop switch 42 is the middle stop switch 42 (correct answer pressing order), the portion corresponding to the correct pressing order of the image display device 23 is displayed. to erase. Therefore, the display content is “−−3”. On the other hand, when the second stop switch 42 is the right stop switch 42 (incorrect pressing order), the notification of the correct pressing order is deleted at that time.
When the first stop switch 42 is on the left and the second stop switch 42 is in the middle, that is, when the correct push order is determined, the correct push by the image display device 23 is performed based on the operation of the third (right) stop switch 42. Clear notifications in order.

  In the example of FIG. 22, the display of the pressing order instruction information by the acquisition number display LED 39 is continued until the winning determination is made (the same applies to the example 1 of FIG. 20). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the display may be erased, for example, when the correct answer pressing order is notified by the image display device 23 when the incorrect answer pressing order is reached. However, in this case, it is desirable to stop the display of the acquisition number display LED 39 after the notification by the image display device 23 is stopped. This is to prevent the push order notification from being performed on the sub control board 80 side even though the push order instruction information is not displayed on the main control board 50 side. Of course, the display of the acquisition number display LED 39 may be stopped simultaneously with the notification by the image display device 23, or the display of the acquisition number display LED 39 may be stopped before the notification by the image display device 23.

Of course, even if the push order is incorrect, the image display device 23 may continue to notify the correct push order.
However, if the push order notification by the image display device 23 is stopped when the push order is incorrect, it is possible to switch to another effect.

  When all the reels 31 are stopped, a winning determination is performed. Here, when the small role 29 wins and three medals are paid out, the display of the acquisition number display LED 39 indicates that three medals have been paid out from the display “= 1” of the push order instruction information. It changes to “03” shown. Note that, when winning the small role C1, the three-piece role always wins. However, if the small role A1 or the like is won and the role is not winning, the display of the acquisition number display LED 39 indicates the push order. The information display changes from “= 1” to “00” (may be “**”). Note that “= 1” → “00” (“00” is displayed in order to reset the display once) from the display “= 1” of the push order instruction information to the display of the medal payout number “03”. ) → “03” may be displayed.

Alternatively, “= 1” → “**” (in order to reset the display, the upper and lower digits are turned off) → “03” may be displayed.
Further, when the player operates the bet switch 40 or inserts a medal and a bet is placed, the displayed content is changed to “00” to clear the content of the acquired number displayed on the acquired number display LED 39. (It may be “**”).

Second Embodiment
Next, the second embodiment will be described.
As described above, in the present invention, as described above, the lottery for the AT high accuracy period and the AT lottery are executed. However, both lotteries may be executed separately, and both lotteries may be performed by one lottery. You may go.
For example, in the former case, there is a method in which the lottery for the AT high-accuracy period and the AT lottery are performed using different random numbers. In this case, acquisition of two random number values may be performed at the same timing or at different timings. Furthermore, when performing at different timings, either may be performed first.

  On the other hand, in the latter case, one random number value is acquired, and the AT high-accuracy period and AT lottery are executed based on the random number value. For example, when the acquired random number value belongs to the first range, the winning period of the AT high-accuracy period and the winning of the AT are selected, and when the acquired random number value belongs to the second range, the winning period of the AT high-accuracy period and the non-winning of the AT are set. . Furthermore, when belonging to the third range, it is set so that the AT high-accuracy period is not elected and the AT is elected, and when belonging to the fourth range, the AT high-accuracy period is not elected and the AT is not elected. To do.

Furthermore, there are a method in which the AT high-accuracy period and AT lottery and the combination (condition device) lottery by the combination lottery means 61 are performed separately, and a method in which they are performed simultaneously.
In the case where the AT high-accuracy period and AT lottery and the role lottery are performed simultaneously, after obtaining one random value, the AT high-accuracy period and the success or failure of the AT are determined according to the range to which the random value belongs. And determining the winning combination (condition device).
Also, when the AT high-accuracy period and AT lottery and the combination lottery are performed separately, both are performed at the same timing (for example, at the moment when the start switch 41 is operated) at different timings. And when to do.

Furthermore, if the AT high-accuracy period and AT lottery and the role lottery are performed at different timings, the AT high-accuracy period and AT It can be clarified that this lottery is performed independently of the winning lottery (the AT high-accuracy period and the AT lottery are being executed without being based on the winning combination). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is needless to say that the AT high-accuracy period and AT lottery may be executed after the role lottery.
Furthermore, it is possible to associate the AT high-accuracy period and the AT lottery with the combination lottery. For example, the lottery during the AT high-accuracy period may be executed on condition that a so-called rare role is won among the winning combinations.

FIG. 23 is a diagram showing a random number soft latch register (RDSL) which is a built-in register provided in the main CPU 55 (actually MPU) of the main control board 50.
In the following description, it is assumed that 16-bit random number generation circuits have 16-bit random numbers RL0 and RL1.
In FIG. 23, “RDSL” of the address “FE74 (H)” is composed of D0 to D7 bits, and is data that determines whether or not a random value is taken into the register.
Particularly in the second embodiment, “RL0SL”, which is the D0 bit in the RDSL, takes in the random number value (16 bits) of the 16-bit random number RL0 into “RL0SV (RL0 soft latch random value register)” to be described later. Stipulated in a bit.

Further, “RL1SL” which is the D1 bit is defined as a bit for taking a random value (16 bits) of the 16-bit random number RL1 into “RL1SV (RL1 soft latch random value register)” to be described later.
The other bits D3 to D7 are also determined as bits for taking in predetermined random numbers, but the description thereof is omitted in this embodiment.

For example, when two lotteries are performed using a 16-bit random number based on the operation of the start switch 41, “00000011 (B)” is written in the address “FE74 (H)”.
At the moment when “1” is written in the D0 bit, the random number value (16 bits) of the 16-bit random number RL0 is taken into “RL0SV (RL0 soft latch random value register)”.
That is, of the random number value of the 16-bit random number RL0, the lower 8 bits are taken into the address “FE76 (H)”, and the upper 8 bits are taken into the address “FE77 (H)”.

Similarly, at the moment when “1” is written in the D1 bit, a process of fetching the random value (16 bits) of the 16-bit random number RL1 into “RL1SV (RL1 soft latch random number value register)” is performed.
That is, of the random number value of the 16-bit random number RL1, the lower 8 bits are taken into the address “FE78 (H)” and the upper 8 bits are taken into the address “FE79 (H)”.
In this way, even at the same timing when the start switch 41 is operated, different random number values can be obtained because random number values are obtained from different random number generation circuits (16-bit random numbers RL0 and RL1). .
For example, using the 16-bit random value stored in the addresses “FE76” and “FE77”, the AT high-accuracy period and the AT lottery are executed, and the 16-bit random value stored in the addresses “FE78” and “FE79” is used. It is possible to execute a lottery of a combination (condition device) by using.

The above shows an example in which two random number values are fetched from two random number generation circuits, but by writing “00000111 (B)” to address “FE74 (H)” Each random value can be taken into a predetermined register.
Thereby, for example, it is possible to simultaneously perform the lottery (first random number value), the AT lottery (second random number), and the combination (condition device) lottery (third random value) during the AT high-accuracy period. Become.
The lottery may be executed using the random number stored in each address as it is, but an arithmetic process for processing the random value (adding a predetermined constant or adding another random value) Etc.) can also be used.

For example, when performing a lottery and AT lottery in the AT high-accuracy period using a random number value (one random value) of the 16-bit random number RL0, a lottery different from the case where both lotteries are performed using one lottery table A case where both lotteries are executed using a table is mentioned.
In the case of the former, in one lottery table, if a range of numbers for winning the AT high accuracy period and a range of numbers for winning the AT are set, and a range of numbers that overlaps with each other is provided, the AT high There can be a case of winning a certain period and winning an AT.
In the latter case, one lottery table is a lottery table for a lottery during the AT high-accuracy period, and a range of numbers for winning the AT high-accuracy period is defined. Another lottery table is a lottery table for AT lottery, and a numerical range for AT winning is defined.

Furthermore, when a lottery of a combination is executed using a random number value of the 16-bit random number RL1, a case where the same lottery table is used as when performing a lottery or AT lottery during an AT high-accuracy period, or a case where a different lottery table is used. Can be mentioned.
In the former case, in the AT high-accuracy period and / or the lottery table for AT lottery, a range of numbers for winning each condition device is determined.
In the latter case, in the lottery table for the role lottery, a numerical range for winning each condition device is determined.

FIG. 24 is a flowchart showing the flow of AT high-precision lottery, AT lottery, and role lottery in the second embodiment.
First, in step S31, the main control board 50 determines whether or not the start switch 41 has been operated. In the present embodiment, the lottery is performed in response to the operation of the start switch 41. The lottery is performed with the operation of the start switch 41 as a trigger, but the AT high-precision lottery and the AT lottery are performed with another operation switch, for example, when the third stop switch 42 is operated as a trigger. It is also possible.

  When it is determined in step S31 that the start switch 41 has been operated, the process proceeds to step S32. In step S32, the internal random number is taken into the random value register. In the example of FIG. 23, “00000011 (B)” is written to the random number soft latch register (RDSL), and at this moment, the random number value of the 16-bit random number RL0 becomes the RL0 soft latch random number value register (RL0SV; FE76 (H) and FE77). (H)), and the random value of the 16-bit random number RL1 is taken into the RL1 soft latch random value register (RL1SV; FE78 (H) and FE79 (H)).

In the next step S33, the blocker 45 is turned off, and the insertion of medals from the medal insertion slot 43 is prohibited. This is to prohibit the insertion of medals during the game. In step S34, the AT high-accuracy control unit 69 and the AT control unit 70 execute an AT high-accuracy period and an AT lottery, respectively. For example, using the 16-bit random value stored in the RL0 soft latch random value register (RL0SV), the AT high-accuracy period and the AT lottery are executed. Next, proceeding to step S35, the winning lottery means 61 executes a lottery for the winning using the 16-bit random value stored in the RL1 soft latch random value register (RL1SV). And the process by a flowchart is complete | finished.
Although not shown in the flowchart, the AT high-accuracy period, the AT lottery result, and the winning combination information are stored in a predetermined address of the RWM 53.

<Third Embodiment>
The third embodiment relates to the output of a test signal and an external signal (outer end).
FIG. 25 is a diagram for explaining the third embodiment and shows a test signal during an AT high-accuracy period and an external signal during AT.
As described above, the external signal is transmitted to the external concentration terminal board 100 by the external signal transmission means 71 (through a predetermined port among the output ports 52). Here, one of the external signals is a signal (AT signal) indicating that AT is in progress. The AT signal starts transmission based on the start of AT and ends transmission based on the end of AT.
Here, for example, when the AT is started from the next game of the game won by the AT, an AT signal is transmitted from the next game.

In addition, there is a combination of symbols corresponding to the AT. When the AT is won, the AT will not start, and the AT will start on the condition that the symbol combination corresponding to the AT stops on the active line. Starts transmission of an AT signal on condition that the combination of symbols corresponding to the AT has stopped on the active line.
Furthermore, RT2 (replay high probability state) is provided as an RT corresponding to the AT. The AT is not started only by winning the AT, and the AT is started on the condition that the RT2 corresponding to the AT is shifted. In this case, transmission of the AT signal is started after the transition to RT2.
In addition, when AT is started on the condition that the combination of symbols corresponding to AT has stopped on the active line and has shifted to RT2, transmission of the AT signal is started when these conditions are satisfied. .

In addition to the external signal described above, a test signal may be transmitted. The output port 52 is provided with an output port for transmitting test signals.
Here, the “test signal” connects the slot machine 10 and the testing machine, and transmits the slot machine 10 to the testing machine. It is a signal used to confirm whether it is designed according to the “Rule”. Here, the connection between the slot machine 10 and the test machine is not limited to being directly connected, but may be connected via an interface board for relaying.
The output port for transmitting the test signal is removed when the slot machine 10 is shipped from the factory (installed value in the hall).

The test signal transmits the value of the “operation state flag” provided in the RWM 53 from the output port for transmitting the test signal. The operating state flag is a flag for determining whether, for example, 1BB, 2BB (including replay in some cases) or the like is operating. Specifically, for example, 1-byte data consisting of 8 bits. When 1BB is operating, the bit corresponding to 1BB is “1”.
Then, a specific bit for determining the presence or absence of the AT high-accuracy period is set in the specific bit of the operation state flag, and when the AT high-accuracy period is reached, the specific bit of the operation state flag is set to “1”.

Note that main processing (also referred to as a main loop) performed once per game is provided as information processing for proceeding with the game. The main process is a process in which inserted medals are detected or a winning process is performed after all reels 31 are stopped.
Further, during this main process, the main process is temporarily exited and an interrupt process (timer interrupt process) is executed. In the interrupt process, the process for detecting the input port 51 and the process for transmitting the external signal and the test signal are performed, and after the process is executed, the process for returning to the main process is performed again periodically. The interval of the interrupt time is 2.235 ms in this embodiment. That is, an external signal and a test signal are transmitted every interrupt processing at intervals of 2.235 ms.

In the third embodiment, an AT high-accuracy signal is transmitted as a test signal. The AT high-accuracy signal is a signal transmitted during the AT high-accuracy period. For example, in FIG. 18, during the period between “B” and “D”, the AT high-accuracy signal is transmitted as a test signal to the testing machine.
The AT high-accuracy signal is transmitted from the next game of the winning game in the AT high-accuracy period when the AT high-accuracy period is started from the next game in the winning period of the AT high-accuracy period.
On the other hand, there is a combination of symbols corresponding to the AT high-accuracy period, and after winning the AT high-accuracy period, the AT high-precision When the period is started (when counting of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b is started), the combination of symbols corresponding to the AT high-accuracy period is stopped and the AT high-accuracy period is started. Send a positive signal as a test signal.

In addition, when transmitting an AT high-accuracy signal as a test signal during the AT high-accuracy period, there are a method for preventing the outside (particularly a player) from knowing and a method for making the externally known.
When an AT high-accuracy signal is transmitted so as not to be recognized outside, there is no need to perform display on the slot machine 10 side or the data counter side.
On the other hand, when notifying the outside that the AT high-accuracy signal is being transmitted, it may be displayed by a lamp or the like provided on the slot machine 10 side or a data counter. For example, when notifying the outside that an AT high-accuracy signal is being transmitted by a lamp or the like provided on the slot machine 10 side, this means the same as informing the outside that the AT high-accuracy period is in progress. It will have something.

<Fourth embodiment>
In the fourth embodiment, when winning a BB during an AT high-accuracy period and during AT, and shifting to a BB game, at the end of the BB game, the AT high-accuracy period end condition is 1500 games or nearly 3000 cards. When it is reached, or when it has reached 1500 games or 3000 sheets which is the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period, a specific effect can be output.
That is, the specific effect is an effect that informs the player that the end of the AT high-accuracy period is approaching, or that the AT high-accuracy period (and AT) ends.

26 and 27 are time charts for explaining the fourth embodiment.
In the fourth embodiment, predetermined thresholds are provided for the count values of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b, respectively, and the count value of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b is determined at the end of the BB game, and at least one AT high When the certain counter 69a or 69 has reached a predetermined threshold value, it is determined to output a specific effect.
The “specific effect” may be a lighting control of the acquisition number display LED 39 or the like by the main control board 50, an image display effect of the image display device 23 by the sub control board 80, or an effect by both of them.

The specific effect is an effect that informs the player that the end of the AT high accuracy period is approaching or that the AT high accuracy period is about to end, so even if the player wins the BB during the AT and moves to the BB game, The specific effect is not output only by the fact.
Even during the AT high-accuracy period, when the player is not in AT, even if the player wins the BB and moves to the BB game, the specific effect is not output at the end of the BB game.
In the present embodiment, when the BB is won during the AT high-accuracy period and during the AT (the AT is interrupted by the BB win), the BB game is entered, and a predetermined threshold is reached at the end of the BB game. Outputs a specific effect.

In the present embodiment, the “predetermined threshold value” is set as follows.
AT high-accuracy counter 69a: 1450 games AT high-accuracy counter 69b: 2800 pieces In addition, as the output timing of the specific effect, when the AT high-accuracy counter 69a or 69b reaches a predetermined threshold (the predetermined threshold is reached during BB game) A game that has reached a predetermined threshold value, or an arbitrary period from the point in time until the end of the BB game.
Note that the above-described predetermined threshold value is an example, and the present invention is not limited to this.

  In Example 1 of FIG. 26, the “N” -th 1BB game and the “N + 1” -th 1BB game do not satisfy the condition that the predetermined threshold is reached during the AT high probability period. Production is not output. On the other hand, in the “N + 2” 1BB game, since the output condition of the specific effect is satisfied in the middle of the game, an example in which the specific effect is output between that time and the end of the 1BB game is shown. Yes. Further, after the end of the BB game, an AT high-accuracy period and AT (resumption of the suspended AT) are entered. Thereafter, when the AT high-accuracy period ends before the AT, the next game becomes the non-AT high-accuracy period and non-AT (example in FIG. 26). On the other hand, when the AT ends earlier than the AT high-accuracy period, the AT high-accuracy period and non-AT are entered from the next game.

In Example 2 of FIG. 27, BB is won during the AT high probability period, and before the end of the BB game, the count value of the AT high probability counter 69a or 69b reaches a value that satisfies the end condition of the AT high probability period. It is an example. If 1500 games or 3000 cards in the AT high-accuracy period are satisfied during the BB game, the non-AT high-accuracy period and non-AT are entered after the end of the BB game. In this case, the interrupted AT is not resumed after the end of the BB game.
In such a case, at the end of the BB game, a second specific effect (ending effect; an effect indicating that the state advantageous to the player is ended) is output. By this second specific effect, the player is notified that the interrupted AT is not resumed.

  Furthermore, when the AT high-accuracy period end condition (the number of payouts) is 3000 sheets and the AT end condition is 480 sheets, the AT may be executed up to 6 times during the AT high-accuracy period. is there. For example, when the sixth AT is executed during the AT high-accuracy period, a third specific effect (ending effect) can be output at the end of the AT (not shown). In this case, the ending effect is output not at the end of the BB game but at the end of the AT.

When the AT is interrupted and the 1BB game is started, the 1BB game is a game in which the small role E (condition device number “30”) wins every game as in the first embodiment, and the display function When the game does not operate the AT counter 69a is not updated.
On the other hand, even in the 1BB game, it is possible to set the AT counter 69a to be updated when the push order bell is drawn and the display function is activated when the push order bell is won. It is.

In FIG. 26 and FIG. 27, there are a case where the production contents are different in the middle of the “N + 1” -th BB game and an “N + 2” -time BB game, and a case where the production contents are changed from the beginning. .
When the content of the “N + 2” BB game is changed from the middle, the content of the “N + 2” BB game is displayed before the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a or 69b reaches a predetermined threshold. , Common to the contents of the “N + 1” BB game. When the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a or 69b reaches a predetermined threshold value, the content of the “N + 2” -th BB game is made different from the content of the “N + 1” -th BB game.

Also, when the content of the “N + 2” -th BB game is changed from the beginning, the “N + 2” -th BB game is based on the average value of medals that can be obtained in the BB game at the start of the “N + 2” -th BB game. It is estimated whether or not a predetermined threshold is reached at the end of the BB game. When it is determined that the predetermined threshold value is reached, the contents of the “N + 2” -th BB game are changed from the contents of the “N + 1” -th BB game from the beginning.
Furthermore, after the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a or 69b reaches a predetermined threshold, BB may be won. In this case, it is possible to output a special effect from the start of the BB game.

<Fifth Embodiment>
FIG. 28 is a diagram for explaining the fifth embodiment.
The fifth embodiment is an effect that wins the winning expectation of a special role (1BB or 2BB) and can output a continuous effect over a plurality of times (for example, about 3 to 5 games).
For example, when the condition device is the same as that of the first embodiment, it is set so that a continuous effect is output with a probability of 30% of when Replay D is selected alone (when BB is not won), and “1BB + Replay D "Is selected so that a continuous performance is output with a probability of 50%.
As described above, when a special role is won, a continuous performance is not always output. On the other hand, when the special role is not won, the continuous production is not always output.
Then, at the end of such a continuous production (final game of the continuous production), it is common to output a finalized production as to whether or not a special role has been won.

Therefore, when a continuous performance is output after winning the special role, the player continues the game while watching the continuous performance, and during the continuous performance, the combination of symbols corresponding to the special role becomes an effective line. There isn't much going to stop. Therefore, when a special combination is won and a continuous production is output, it is generally inside the special combination until a finalized production at the end of the continuous production is output. For this reason, when a continuous effect is output, the game in the special role is executed as many times as the number of games of the continuous effect.
On the other hand, during the AT high-accuracy period, the upper limit value of the number of games is set to 1500 games. If the BB is won, it is possible to reduce the consumption of the number of games during the AT high-accuracy period by winning the BB more quickly.

Therefore, in the fifth embodiment, when the special role is won in the AT high-accuracy period and the non-AT high-accuracy period, the appearance rate of the continuous effect is set to be different.
For example, when the special role is won during the non-AT high-accuracy period, the ratio of notifying the special role after the continuous performance is output is x1,
When the special role is elected during the AT high-accuracy period, when the ratio of notifying the special role after the continuous performance is output is x2,
x1> 0, x2 ≧ 0, and x1> x2
Set to.

In the example of FIG. 28, “x1 = 50%” and “x2 = 3%” are set.
Furthermore, during the AT high-accuracy period, a special role is won and the game won for the special role without outputting a continuous performance, or until the next game of the game won for the special role (until the start switch 41 is operated) (Including after the operation of the bet switch 40)) When the ratio of notifying that the special role is won (prompt notification ratio) is x3,
x3> x2
Set to.

  If set in this way, without limiting the appearance ratio of the continuous production more than necessary, during the AT high-accuracy period, rather than performing the special role winning notification through the continuous production after winning the special role, When a special role is won, the special role is notified promptly (the special role is won as soon as possible), thereby reducing the number of games played during the AT high-accuracy period.

  It is also possible to vary the appearance ratio of the continuous effect according to the set value. Specifically, for example, when the set value is “1”, “x1 = 50%” and “x2 = 3%” are set, and when the set value is “6”, “x1 = 75%”. And “x2 = 10%”. In this way, the player can estimate the set value from the frequency of occurrence of continuous effects, and therefore can expect an improvement in the operating rate of the slot machine 10.

<Sixth Embodiment>
In the sixth embodiment, the appearance frequency of reach is made different between the AT high probability period and the non-AT high probability period.
FIG. 29 is a diagram for explaining the sixth embodiment.
First, the reach eye means a special stop appearance that does not appear when the special role is not won during the period from when the special role is won until the special role is won (inside the special role).
In general, a reach is a stop that can be stopped on the condition that it is inside the special role, but for example, a chance that appears with a low probability even when the special role is not inside. May be included.

For example, when the special role is not elected, “Replay”-“Replay”-“Bell” can be stopped on the active line, but “Replay”-“Replay”-“Watermelon” (reach eyes) is not stopped. To control.
On the other hand, when it is in the special role inside, “Replay”-“Replay”-“Watermelon” (reach eyes) can be stopped on the active line.
In addition, although the reach eye is a stop appearance that appears when a winning combination is not won in the game, it may appear as a winning mode when winning a small role or replay. In this embodiment, there is one effective line. For example, when the effective line is 5 lines, a combination of symbols on a specific effective line is set to reach when a small role or replay is won. Can be mentioned.

Further, in the sixth embodiment, the role lottery means 61 performs a lottery of a role including a lottery of a high probability opportunity role. When the winning lottery means 61 wins a high-probability trigger and the combination of symbols corresponding to the high-probability trigger is stopped, the AT high-accuracy period starts.
That is, in the sixth embodiment, it is not a lottery for whether or not the AT high-accuracy control means 69 starts the AT high-accuracy period, but a lottery for whether or not the role lottery means 61 starts the AT high-accuracy period. Will be performed. However, the AT high-accuracy control means 69 controls the number of games, the number of payouts, etc. during the AT high-accuracy period as in the other embodiments.

Note that the AT high-accuracy period does not start from the next game of the game in which the combination of symbols corresponding to the high-probability trigger is stopped, but starts from the next game of the game won by the high-probability trigger. May be.
Further, each symbol of the symbol combination corresponding to the high-probability trigger may be “PB = 1”, and the game may be always stopped at the game won for the high-probability trigger. Alternatively, at least one symbol combination corresponding to the high-probability trigger may be set to “PB ≠ 1”, and the symbol combination corresponding to the high-probability trigger may be displayed. Good.

When the AT high-accuracy period is one of the objects (high-probability opportunity combination), the reel 31 is in the non-operating state (non-AT high-accuracy period) and when the accessory is operating (AT high-accuracy period). It becomes possible to change the stop control.
This is based on the fact that, for example, the stop control of the reel 31 can be made different when the BB is not operating (during a normal game) and when the BB is operating (a BB game).
Therefore, in the AT high probability period, when the special role is won (inside the special role), the reach ratio of reach is set higher than in the non-AT highly accurate period.

For example, as described above, it is assumed that “replay” − “replay” − “watermelon” is set as the reach eye. Then, it is assumed that when the left and middle reels 31 are stopped, a stop form of “replay” − “replay” − “rotating” is obtained.
In this case, within the special role during the non-AT high-accuracy period, when the right stop switch 42 is operated, the “watermelon” symbol on the right reel 31 is within two symbols from the effective line. To the active line, and reach eyes appear.
On the other hand, when the right stop switch 42 is operated and the “watermelon” symbol of the right reel 31 is within four symbols from the effective line when the right stop switch 42 is operated, To the active line, and reach eyes appear.

Thereby, the appearance rate of reach eyes can be set to double during the non-AT highly accurate period and during the AT highly accurate period.
In addition, it is possible to variously change the appearance ratio of reach eyes by changing the drawing rate of the reach eyes, or stopping the target design on the effective line only when the symbols in a specific range are on the active line it can.

As described above, when the appearance rate of reach eyes within the special role during the AT high probability period is x1, and the appearance rate of reach eyes within the special role during the non-AT high probability period is x2,
x1 ≧ x2
Set to.
In the AT high-accuracy period, the number of games of 1500 games continues to be counted even when the special role is won and the special role is inside. For this reason, when a special role is won during the AT high-accuracy period, the appearance rate of the reach is increased so that the player can quickly notice the special role.
In the example of FIG. 29, an example is shown in which the appearance rate of reach eyes during the non-AT highly accurate period is set to 30%, and the appearance rate of reach eyes during the AT highly accurate period is set to 60%. Yes.

<Seventh embodiment>
30 and 31 are diagrams for explaining the seventh embodiment.
FIG. 30 is a time chart showing the relationship between winning in the AT high accuracy period, during the AT high accuracy period, inside the AT high accuracy period, winning in the AT, and during AT.
In the seventh embodiment, as in the sixth embodiment, the role lottery means 61 performs a lottery with a high probability opportunity. And if a high-probability opportunity is won, it will be inside the AT high-accuracy period.

In addition, when an AT is won in the AT high-accuracy period, a combination of symbols corresponding to a high-probability trigger can be displayed. When the combination of symbols corresponding to the high-probability trigger is stopped on the active line, the inside of the AT high-accuracy period ends, and the AT high-accuracy period and AT start. The combination of symbols corresponding to the high-probability trigger can be stopped on the active line only when the stop switch 42 is operated in the correct answer pressing order.
In the seventh embodiment, the combination of symbols corresponding to the high-probability trigger is “blue 7 / red 7 / white BAR / black BAR” − “blue 7 / red 7 / white BAR / black BAR” − “blue 7 "/ Red 7 / White BAR / Black BAR" are provided in 60 ways except for combinations of four symbols which are the same symbols on all reels 31. Furthermore, for each symbol combination, one pressing order is set so that the symbol combination can be stopped.

For example, a combination of symbols consisting of “Blue 7”-“Red 7”-“Blue 7”, which has a combination of symbols that can be stopped on the active line in the order of pressing “Right / Left / Middle” is won. Suppose that
With the winning of this high probability opportunity, the AT counters 69a and 69b start counting. Therefore, the AT high-accuracy period starts even before the symbol combination corresponding to the high-probability trigger is stopped (inside the high-probability trigger). However, in this state, it is still non-AT.
Then, when winning the AT, the image display device 23 is used to display an image of the combination of symbols corresponding to the selected high-probability opportunity and the correct answer pressing order.

When the combination of symbols corresponding to the selected high-probability opportunity is stopped and displayed, AT is started from the next game.
Various conditions can be set for the start AT end condition. For example, as in the first embodiment, it may be continued until the number of payouts reaches 480. Alternatively, the AT may be continued until each game and a falling lottery is performed and the winning lottery is won.
In the seventh embodiment, when the AT ends, the AT high-accuracy period also ends. Therefore, the AT ends and the AT high-accuracy period ends. As a result, the next game becomes a normal game (non-AT high-accuracy period and non-AT).

In the seventh embodiment, since the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are operated in accordance with the winning of the high-probability opportunity, the AT high-accuracy counter 69a is counted until the AT is started after the high-probability opportunity is won. The value (number of games) is updated every game, but the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69b (number of payouts) should be updated as little as possible.
Therefore, after winning the high-probability opportunity, before the start of AT, control is performed so that only the number priority is performed when winning the small roles A1 to B6. If the number priority control is performed when the small roles A1 to B6 are selected, the progress of the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69b can be suppressed.
Therefore, as shown in FIG. 31, priority is given to the number / number of sheets in the non-AT high-accuracy period and non-AT. Also, the number priority is executed during the AT high accuracy period and non-AT (the number priority is not executed), and the number / number priority is executed during the AT high accuracy period and the AT.

In addition, when there is a combination of symbols that execute the AT high-accuracy period, such as a high-probability trigger, the AT high-accuracy period is won, but until the combination of symbols that execute the AT high-accuracy period stops The stop control of the reel 31 can be made different for the game before winning the AT high-accuracy period or after the combination of symbols executing the AT high-accuracy period is stopped. This is because the game state is different from the inside of the high-probability opportunity combination. For example, the reach is not caused to appear in the inside of the BB, but the reel 31 is stopped and controlled so that the reach can appear in the inside of the BB.
Therefore, we won the high-probability trigger, but until the combination of symbols corresponding to the high-probability trigger stops (inside the high-probability trigger), the number / number priority control is not performed. To do.

Here, the number / number priority when winning the small roles A1 to B6 is the same as the contents shown in FIGS. 9 and 10 described above.
On the other hand, in the case where only the number priority is performed, for example, in FIG. 9, even when the small role A1 is won, the first left stop, that is, the correct answer in the pressing order, the small role 10, the small role 11, the small role 18 , Or a small combination 19 is controlled to win, and when these small combinations cannot be won, control is performed to display a special figure. Therefore, when only the number priority is performed, even if the small combination A1 is won, even if the correct answer is in the pressing order, a winning combination or a special figure display (missing) is displayed.
Note that when the small roles C1 to C6 are won, the number / number priority is not applied as described in the first embodiment. Therefore, the same stop control as in the first embodiment is performed in the seventh embodiment.

Further, a game period in which only the number priority is provided may be provided, and for example, a game period in which only the number priority is given may be provided. As shown in FIG. 31, after winning a special role, the period until shifting to a special game (inside the special role) is set to a game period in which only the number priority is given.
When only the number priority is performed, the stop control is reverse to that when only the number priority is performed. For example, in FIG. 9 described above, when the small combination A1 is won, control is performed so that the small combination 01 is won in any pressing order.

<Eighth Embodiment>
In the eighth embodiment, when the end of the AT high probability period is approaching, the RT is shifted, and even when the AT high probability period ends, control is performed so that the transition destination RT stays for a certain period of time. .
FIG. 32 is a diagram illustrating RT transition in the eighth embodiment.
First, in the eighth embodiment, RT4 and RT5 are provided as RT.
In addition, replay 07 is provided as a replay. Further, as a replay condition device, a replay E in which replays 01, 02, and 07 are repeatedly won is provided.
Replay E is drawn only at RT2.

In the game at the time of replay E winning, when the stop switch 42 is operated in the correct push order (any one of the 6 choices), the replay 07 is won and the stop switch 42 is operated in the incorrect push order. Sometimes you will win Replay 01 or 02.
At RT2, when Replay E is won, when Replay 07 wins, the process shifts to RT4, and when Replay 01 or 02 wins, the process shifts to non-RT as in the first embodiment.

  RT4 is an RT (complete running type finite RT) that, once transferred, does not shift to another RT until a predetermined number of games have been consumed. In addition, the small combination in RT4 is drawn in the same manner as in the first embodiment. Furthermore, in the replay, for example, only Replay A is drawn in the same manner as RT3. In addition, when a special combination is won in RT4, the point of transition to RT3 (internal RT) is the same as in the first embodiment (in FIG. 32, RT3 and special games are not shown).

When the end of the AT high-accuracy period is approaching and staying at RT2, when the replay E is won, the display function is activated to display the correct answer pressing order. Thereby, the player can move to RT4 by operating the stop switch 42 in accordance with the displayed correct pressing order.
Further, “when the end of the AT high-accuracy period approaches” means that the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a or 69b has reached a specific threshold. For example, the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a is It is set to “1400” or more, or the count value of the AT high accuracy counter 69b is set to “2900” (in the case of an increment counter). When this condition is satisfied, if the user stays at RT2 and wins Replay E, the display function is activated to prompt guidance to RT4.

  As described above, the display function may be activated only when the user stays at RT2. For example, when the user stays at RT1, the count value of the AT high accuracy counter 69a or the AT high accuracy counter 69b is used. May reach the above-mentioned specific threshold value, the display function may be activated when replays B1 to B6 are won, and the correct answer pressing order for winning replay 03 or 04 may be displayed. In addition, after switching from RT1 to RT2 by activating the display function and before winning Replay E, in the game that won the push order bell, the display function is activated and the correct answer push order (push order that does not fall from RT2) ) May be displayed. Similarly, in RT2, when the replays B1 to B6 are won, the display function may be activated to display the correct push order (push order not falling from RT2).

The RT4 end condition (digestion of a predetermined number of games) can be set in various ways. For example, it is set to digestion of about 100 games or 200 games.
Also, after shifting to RT4, a method of continuing the AT high accuracy period as long as the count value of the AT high accuracy counter 69a or 69b does not satisfy the end condition of the AT high accuracy period, and the AT high accuracy period at the time of shifting to RT4 (The count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a or the AT high-accuracy counter 69b is cleared when the process proceeds to RT4).

Furthermore, the replay winning probability of RT4 can be set to, for example, RT2 or less and non-RT or more.
Also, for example, if the specification is to stay at a constant RT during the AT high-accuracy period, the above-mentioned constant RT replay winning probability ≧ RT4 replay winning probability> non-RT replay winning probability may be set. Can be mentioned.
That is, the RT replay winning probability is set slightly higher than the replay winning probability in the AT high-accuracy period, but higher than the so-called normal game.
As a result, after the end of the AT high-accuracy period, the replay winning probability during the AT (replay winning probability in RT2) and the replay winning probability in the normal game (non-RT or RT1) is set to an intermediate. Go through RT.

  When the predetermined number of games is consumed in RT4, the process proceeds to RT5. RT5 is an RT for returning to a normal game (non-RT or RT1). In RT5, a lottery of condition devices similar to non-RT is performed. When the replay 01 or 02 is displayed in RT5 or when the small roles 02 to 27 are displayed, the process shifts to non-RT, and when the special figure is displayed, the process shifts to RT1.

In the eighth embodiment, the transition from RT2 to RT4 can be performed. However, for example, the replay E may be drawn in any of non-RT, RT1, and RT2 so that the transition can be made from any RT to RT4. .
Further, when BB is won during the stay of RT4, the process proceeds to RT3 (inside the BB), and RT4 ends (puncture).

<Ninth Embodiment>
FIG. 33 is a diagram for explaining the ninth embodiment.
In the first embodiment, the number of inserted medals (the number of bets) is set to “3”.
On the other hand, in the ninth embodiment, it is possible to play with either the number of bets “3” or “2”. Further, the present invention is not limited to this, and the game may be made possible with the number of bets “1”.
The update condition of the count value by the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b is set so that the bet number is “3”. For this reason, for example, after winning in the AT high-accuracy period, when the game is digested with the bet number “2”, the count values by the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are not updated.
On the other hand, the AT counter 70a is updated regardless of the number of medals bet. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the AT counter 70a may not be updated when the special combination is won.

As a result, for example, when the player is elected to the special role during the AT high-accuracy period, when the player knows that the special role has been won (for example, when the special role is notified), the bet number is changed to “ 2 ”can be played. As a result, the winning special combination can be won with the bet number “2”. Therefore, when the special role is being elected, the update of the count values of the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b can be temporarily stopped, so that the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period must be reached accordingly. Can be delayed.
Specifically, when a special role is won, a continuous performance is output, and when a player notices that the special role is won in a game in the middle of the continuous performance (for example, an output with a very high possibility of winning the special role is output) The game can be played with the bet number “2” from that point on.

In the ninth embodiment, when a game is played with the bet number “2”, updating of both the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b is temporarily stopped. For example, updating of only one of them is temporarily stopped. Also good. For example, when a game is played with the bet number “2”, only the update of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a may be paused.
As a result, even if the beginner of the slot machine 10 unfamiliar with the game spends the game before winning the special role, the number of games in the AT high-accuracy period (count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a) is wasted. There is no end.

<Tenth Embodiment>
FIG. 34 is a diagram for explaining the tenth embodiment.
As in the ninth embodiment, in the tenth embodiment, when playing a game with the bet number of medals set to “3”, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are updated, but the bet number of medals is set to “2”. When playing a game, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are set not to be updated.
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 34, in a non-special game (meaning a game other than a special game), as described above, it is possible to play with either the bet number “2” or “3”. In general, when the bet number “3” is changed to the bet number “2”, the winning probability of the small role is “2/3”.

Therefore, also in the tenth embodiment, after winning the special combination, it is possible to play an internal game with the bet number “2” and win the special combination.
Further, when shifting to the special game, the bet number is limited to “2” in the special game, and the game is set so that the game cannot be performed with the bet number “3”.
Further, even during the special game, when the game is played with the bet number “2”, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are not updated.

As a result, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are not updated in both the game inside the special role and the special game, so that the AT high-accuracy period is not reduced by winning the special role or digesting the special game. be able to.
However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, when a transition is made to a special game during a non-AT high-accuracy period, the special game is set to be played with the number of bets “3”. When the game is shifted to the game, the special game may be set to play with the bet number “2”.

  Further, the special game is not limited to the bet number “2”, but the player can arbitrarily select the bet number “2” or “3”. If it is set so that there is no change in the difference between the special game with the bet number “2” and the special game with the bet number “3”, the player will have a non-AT high probability period. When the game shifts to the special game, the bet number “3” can be selected as usual, and when the game shifts to the special game during the AT high-accuracy period, the bet number “2” can be selected.

In order to shift from the bet number “3” state to the bet number “2” state, RT transition is sufficient. Therefore, for example, it is possible to limit the RT within the special combination non-inside the bet number “3” and limit the RT inside the special combination to the bet number “2”.
Further, when the number of bets in the special role inside (RT3) is limited to “2”, if the player can suddenly play only with the bet number “2” during the game, the player will notice that the special role is won. Can do.
In the special game, since the RT shifts to the RT for the special game, the bet number can be limited to “2” even in the special game.

<Eleventh embodiment>
FIG. 35 is a diagram for explaining the eleventh embodiment.
In the eleventh embodiment, as in the ninth embodiment, the game is played with the bet number “3” in the normal game (non-special game), and the game is played with the bet number “2” in the 1BB game. is there.
Further, in both the normal game and the 1BB game, a lottery for the AT high-accuracy period is executed. Furthermore, the lottery for the AT high-accuracy period is related to the lottery (condition device) lottery.
In the figure, the reference example shown in (a) is an example in which the bet number “3” is set for the normal game and the 1BB game. There are various relationships between the number of bets and the number of lotteries selected during the AT high-accuracy period. In this reference example, when the number of bets is the same, the number of lotteries selected during the AT high-accuracy period is also set to the same It is based on the idea of that.
In the eleventh embodiment, the lottery for the winning combination and the lottery for the AT high-accuracy period are performed using one lottery table. For example, in the figure, the lottery table that defines the winning number range for the winning combination and the lottery table that defines the winning number range for the AT high-accuracy period are the same lottery table.

Here, in the reference example, the winning number of AT high-accuracy periods is set for a part of the non-winning of the winning combination and the rare winning combination.
In FIG. 35, the winning combination is simplified, but actually, it is set in the same manner as in the first embodiment (FIG. 12). The rare combination is, for example, at least one of replay C, replay D, small combination D1, or small combination D2.
In the reference example, there is no change in the number of wins in the AT high-accuracy period between the normal game and the 1BB game. In addition, after setting the number of winning roles, the number of winning points in the AT high-accuracy period is set in accordance with the number of winning positions (a part of non-winning and rare role winning).
In addition, the number of winning combinations in 1BB game is set to match the number of winning selections during the AT high-accuracy period. As a result, in the 1BB game, the winning number of rare roles is assigned to the winning number in the AT high-accuracy period.

However, when setting in this way, there is a possibility that allocation of the number range of winning combination in 1BB game may be limited. Also, in 1BB games, there is a case where an AT high-accuracy period is won when a push order bell or the like is won.
Therefore, in the eleventh embodiment, the range of winning numbers in the AT high-accuracy period is made different by changing the number of bets between the normal game and the 1BB game.
FIG. 35 (b) is a diagram showing the number of winners in the eleventh embodiment. Here, the number range of the winning combination in the normal game and the number range of the AT high-accuracy period are the same as in the reference example.
On the other hand, the 1BB game is played with the bet number “2” as in the ninth embodiment. Since the bet numbers are different, it is possible to change the winning number range during the AT high-accuracy period.

Therefore, as shown in (b) in the figure, the winning number range in the AT high-accuracy period in 1BB game is combined into one range. The range of the winning number matches the winning number range of the rare combination in the 1BB game. Of course, it may be set to be won during the AT high-accuracy period in addition to the rare role winning. Furthermore, of course, it may be set so that it is not won during the AT high-accuracy period when the rare role is won.
In the eleventh embodiment, the winning number in the AT high-accuracy period has been described, but the AT winning number can also be set in the same way as in the eleventh embodiment.
As in the eleventh embodiment (FIG. 35 (b)), by using the winning number range of the AT high-accuracy period, the capacity can be reduced and the development man-hours can be reduced.

<Twelfth embodiment>
FIG. 36 is a diagram for explaining the twelfth embodiment.
The twelfth embodiment has an RT corresponding to the AT high probability period, and corresponds to RT6 in the figure.
During the non-AT high-accuracy period, as in the first embodiment, when the AT is won, when the replays B1 to B6 are won in RT1, the correct pressing order for winning the replay 03 or 04 is displayed, and the process proceeds to RT2, RT2 Execute AT. After the AT is over, the player shifts to non-RT or RT1 by winning the RT fall combination or displaying a special figure.
On the other hand, when the AT high-accuracy period is won during the non-AT high-accuracy period, control is performed to shift to RT6.

In the twelfth embodiment, replay 08 is provided as replay.
Further, a replay F in which replays 01, 02, and 08 are repeatedly won is provided as a replay condition device that is selected by non-RT, RT1, and RT2.
In the game at the time of winning Replay F, when the stop switch 42 is operated in the correct push order (any one of 6 choices), Replay 08 is won and the stop switch 42 is operated in the incorrect answer push order. Sometimes you will win Replay 01 or 02.
Then, when Replay F wins, when Replay 08 wins, the process shifts to RT6 (AT high probability period), and when Replay 01 or 02 wins, it shifts to non-RT as in the first embodiment. That is, the replay 08 plays a role of a game state (RT) transition role.

Further, the replay F has a winning probability set very low (for example, “1/65536”) when the number of bets is “3” and hardly wins.
On the other hand, the bet number “2” is set to about the winning probability of replays B1 to B6.
In addition, the AT high-accuracy period is set so that the bet number “3” wins with a predetermined probability, but the bet number “2” hardly wins.
Therefore, in the non-AT highly probable period, the player executes a game with the bet number “3” and waits for winning in the AT highly probable period.

When winning in the AT high-accuracy period, it is notified that a game is played with the bet number “2”. When the game is played with the bet number “2” and the replay F is won, the correct answer pressing order is displayed. Thereby, when Replay 08 wins, it will transfer to RT6 from the next game.
RT6 is set to have a high replay probability similar to RT2. Thereby, it is possible to execute the AT high probability period by reducing the number of medals as in a normal game.

Further, after the transition to RT6 (AT high probability period), when the AT is won, the RT is maintained and the AT is executed. In RT6, since the replay winning probability is about the same as RT2, there is no difference between the AT being executed in RT2 and the payout rate.
Furthermore, in RT6, it is assumed that a game is played with a bet number "3". For example, in the AT high probability period during RT6, when the bet number is "3", the AT winning probability is high (for example, "1/30"), but when the bet number is "2", the AT By setting the winning probability to a low probability (for example, “1/300”), the game is played with the bet number “3” in RT6.

Furthermore, in the twelfth embodiment, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b update the count value when the bet number is “3”, but do not update the count value when the bet number is “2”. This is the same as in the ninth embodiment.
Therefore, when winning in the AT high-accuracy period, the game is played with the number of bets “2” until the transition to RT6. Therefore, the AT high-accuracy period is between the winning of the AT high-accuracy period and the transition to RT6. You can prevent it from progressing.
Then, the process proceeds to RT6, and when the AT high accuracy period is started with the bet number “3”, the AT high accuracy counters 69a and 69b update the count values.

  RT6 that is the AT high-accuracy period is continued until the end condition of the AT high-accuracy period is satisfied. For example, RT6 is a complete RT that ends with 1500 games or 3000 payouts. When the AT high-accuracy period ends, the process proceeds to RT7 (non-AT high-accuracy period). RT7 is an RT for returning to a normal game (non-RT, RT1, RT2), and corresponds to RT5 of the eighth embodiment. Note that the winning probability of replay in RT7 is a normal probability (non-RT, equivalent to RT1). In RT7, when the special figure is displayed, the process shifts to RT1, and when the replay 01 or 02 or the small roles 02 to 27 wins, the process shifts to non-RT. Thereby, it shifts to a normal game.

  When BB is won while staying at RT6, the process proceeds to RT3 (inside BB). Further, the AT high-accuracy flag 69c is kept on, and control is performed so as not to end the AT high-accuracy period. Then, after the end of the BB game, when a transition to non-RT is made, it is notified again that the game is performed with the bet number “2”. When replay F is won in this state, the correct answer pressing order is displayed. Thereby, since Replay 08 wins, it shifts to RT6 and restarts the AT high probability period.

As mentioned above, although one Embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, For example, the following various deformation | transformation are possible.
(1) The AT high-accuracy period end condition is set to 1500 games or 3000, but is not limited to this, and can be variously set to 1000 games or 2000, for example. Furthermore, it is possible to provide a plurality of types of AT high-accuracy periods, draw these, and execute the winning AT high-accuracy period. For example,
AT high accuracy period 1: 100 games or 200 cards end AT high accuracy period 2: 500 games or 1000 cards end AT high accuracy period 3: 1000 games or 2000 cards end AT high accuracy period 4: 1500 games or 3000 cards Ends in (first embodiment)
And lottery these.

Furthermore, after winning the AT high-accuracy period, when displaying a combination of symbols corresponding to the AT high-accuracy period, it is possible to change the combination of symbols corresponding to the AT high-accuracy periods 1 to 4.
For example,
AT high accuracy period 1: "Red 7"-"Red 7"-"Blue 7"
AT high accuracy period 2: "Blue 7"-"Blue 7"-"Red 7"
AT high accuracy period 3: "White BAR"-"White BAR"-"Red 7"
AT high accuracy period 4: "Black BAR"-"Black BAR"-"Blue 7"
It is determined.
Then, by notifying the symbol combination corresponding to the winning AT high-accuracy period, the player can know which AT high-accuracy period has been won.

(2) Although the AT termination condition is set to 480 sheets, the present invention is not limited to this, and various conditions such as 200 sheets and 1000 sheets can be set. In addition, the AT end condition is not set by the number of payouts, but can be the number of games or the number of differences.
Further, similarly to the above-described AT high-accuracy period, it is also possible to provide a plurality of ATs, draw these, and execute the winning AT. For example,
AT1: End with 200 sheets AT2: End with 500 sheets AT3: End with 1000 sheets

(3) In the above embodiment, the AT high-accuracy period lottery and the AT lottery are executed independently. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and when either one is won, the other lottery is set to be executed. Also good.
For example, during the non-AT high-accuracy period and during non-AT, a lottery for the AT high-accuracy period is executed, and when a lottery for the AT high-accuracy period is won, an AT lottery is executed. Note that in this case, the AT lottery period is selected, but if the AT lottery is not won, then only the AT lottery is executed during the AT highly accurate period.
Also, during the non-AT high-accuracy period and during non-AT, the AT lottery is executed, and when the AT lottery is won, the AT high-accuracy period lottery is executed. In this case, if the player wins the AT and also wins the AT high-accuracy period, the AT high-accuracy period is entered after the end of the AT, and only the AT lottery is executed.

(4) When starting AT, replay 03 or 04 was won at the time of replay B1-B6 winning, and after shifting to RT2 (high replay probability), AT was started.
Here, even during the normal game, the game is set so that the player can play any of the bet numbers “2” and “3”. When the AT is not won, the game is advanced with the bet number “3”. In RT1, it is set so that the replays B1 to B6 are hardly won at the bet number “3”, and the bet number “2” is set at the probability shown in the first embodiment.

When winning the AT, the player is informed that the game is progressing with the bet number “2”, and is set so that the replays B1 to B6 are won in RT1.
By setting in this way, it is possible to make almost no transition to RT2 when the AT is not won. Further, if the AT lottery is not executed in RT2, it is possible to intentionally set the bet number to “2” when the AT is not won and to prevent the transition to RT2.
After the transition to RT2, the game is played with the bet number “3”.

(5) In the sixth embodiment, the appearance rate of reach is set to be high in the AT high-accuracy period.
Here, in the case of having the reach eyes 1 and the reach eyes 2, the appearance rate is set to be the same for the non-AT highly accurate period and the AT highly accurate period for the reach eye 1, and the appearance rates are different for the reach eye 2 (The appearance rate is higher in the AT high-accuracy period than in the non-AT high-accuracy period).
For example, the reach eye 1 may be set to a general reach eye, the reach eye 2 may be set to a well-known reach eye, 1st eye (an output that becomes a reach eye only at the stop position of the left reel 31), or the like.

  (6) In this embodiment, after acquiring the push order instruction number, it is converted into the push order instruction information (for example, “A1” is set to “= 1”) and displayed. It is also possible to display the instruction number itself. Alternatively, the selected condition device number itself may be displayed. For example, “10” may be displayed when winning the small combination A1.

(7) In this embodiment, when the small roles A1 to B6 are won, the stop control of the reels 31 by the number priority and the number priority is performed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the following stop control of the reel 31 can also be adopted.
For example, the push order is 6 choices. When the first stop is incorrect, a symbol combination that satisfies the transition condition to non-RT is displayed. In addition, when the first stop correct answer and the second stop incorrect answer, a combination of symbols (special figure) that satisfies the transition condition to RT1 is displayed. Even with this setting, three patterns of non-RT transition, RT1 transition, and RT2 maintenance can be provided when the push order bell is won.

(8) In the present embodiment, when the transition from non-RT to RT1 is performed, the push order bells A1 to B6 are won, and a special figure is displayed. Further, as described above, informing the incorrect answer pressing order has a rule restriction.
Therefore, if there is no problem in the rules, in non-RT, when the push order bells A1 to B6 are elected, the push order (transition push order) that can display a special chart for transition from non-RT to RT1 is obtained. You may display on display LED39. In this case, it can be said that it is one of the operations of the display function. Note that whether or not to notify the image display device 23 of the shift push order is arbitrary.
Further, even when the small roles A1 to B6 are won in the non-RT, the correct pressing order may be displayed on the acquired number display LED 39. In this case, the image display device 23 may not notify the pressing order.

  (9) The acquisition number display LED 39 is used to display the push order instruction information. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and other LEDs or LEDs dedicated to display the push order instruction information may be provided. Alternatively, if there is no possibility of misunderstanding / confusing whether the storage number is displayed or the push order instruction information is displayed, it is also possible to display the push order instruction information on the storage number display LED 38. For example, if “=” is used to display the upper digits as in the present embodiment, it is considered that there is no possibility of being misidentified and confused with the number of stored items.

  (10) It is desirable to initialize various data related to AT (data of AT high accuracy counters 69a and 69b, data of AT counter 70a, etc.) stored in RWM 53 based on the end of the AT high accuracy period. . Here, “initialization” does not only mean “0” (clear) the data of the RWM 53 but also includes setting a predetermined initial value.

  (11) Depending on the example of the above-described embodiment, for example, it is assumed that the AT high-accuracy period is started, but the AT is never started. However, when the AT high-accuracy period is started, at least (at least) a plurality of times, “push order bells with different payouts depending on the push order (in the embodiment, small roles A1 to B6) display function operation game at the time of winning (below , “Display function operation game at the time of pushing order bell win”)) ”. For example, the display function operation game at the time of pushing order bell winning is executed two games.

In this case, various settings can be made as to which timing to execute the display function operation game at the time of pushing order bell winning as the minimum guaranteed number of times.
For example, after shifting to the AT high-accuracy period, the first two games won in the push order bell may be set as the display function operation game in the push order bell win.

  Specifically, it is assumed that the AT high probability period is won (“N” game) and the AT high probability period starts from the next game (“N + 1” game). When the first order game in the AT high-accuracy period, that is, the “N + 1” game is won for the push order bell, the first push order bell win display function operation game is executed. In the next “N + 2” game, for example, when Replay A is won, the push function bell win display function operating game cannot be executed. Further, in the next “N + 3” game, when the push order bell is won, the second push order bell win display function operation game is executed. Thereby, the display function operation | movement game at the time of pushing order bell winning of the minimum guarantee frequency | count mentioned above can be performed.

  On the other hand, instead of determining the minimum guaranteed number of times the push order bell wins display function operation game, the minimum guarantee period in which the push order bell wins display function operation game can be executed may be determined. For example, when shifting to the AT high-accuracy period, the first two games (regardless of whether or not the pushing order bell is won) are determined as the minimum guarantee period.

In this case, when both of the two games win the push order bell, the push function bell win display function operation game is executed. On the other hand, of the two games, one game was won for the push order bell, but when the other one game was won for Replay A or the role was not won, only one game is displayed when the push order bell is won. A function-operated game will be executed, which ends the minimum warranty period. Therefore, when the “n” game period is provided as the minimum guarantee period, the display function operation game at the time of pushing order bell winning is “0” to “n” times during the “n” game period.
Note that the minimum number of guarantees and the minimum guarantee period may be one game.

In addition, when winning in the AT high-accuracy period, the display function operation game at the time of pushing the bell with the minimum guaranteed number of times is executed, or when a minimum guaranteed period is provided, It may be executed after a sign of the number of games.
For example, after winning the AT high-accuracy period, a period of 30 games (but not limited to this may be set as any game) is positioned as a precursor period. During the precursor period, an effect indicating whether or not the AT high-accuracy period is won may be output. In addition, although it is not won in the AT high-accuracy period, when it is decided to output a gazette precursor effect, an effect indicating whether or not the AT high-accuracy period is won may be output.

Then, when the AT high-accuracy period is won, the display function operation game at the time of push order bell winning of the minimum guaranteed number of times or the minimum guaranteed period is executed after the precursor period of 30 games.
Furthermore, when winning in the AT high-accuracy period, switching from the precursor effect to the production (display) of the AT high-accuracy period. On the other hand, when the AT high-accuracy period is not won (at the time of output of the gazette precursor effect), the output of the effect relating to the AT high-accuracy period is ended with a gaze precursor effect of 30 games.

  In addition, the minimum guaranteed number of times or the minimum guaranteed period of the display function operation game at the time of push order bell winning in the AT highly accurate period may be performed at or near the end of the AT highly accurate period. For example, when the remaining number of games in the AT high-accuracy period becomes “2” based on the count value by the AT high-accuracy counter 69a, the minimum guarantee period may be executed. In this case as well, at the start of the AT high-accuracy period, there are cases in which both games become a push-bell winning display function operation game, and only one game becomes a push-bell winning display function operation game. In some cases. Alternatively, there is a case where the display function operation game is not executed when the push order bell is won.

  Furthermore, when the minimum guaranteed number of times of the push function bell winning display function operation game is set to 2 games in the AT high-accuracy period, for example, when the remaining number of games in the AT high-accuracy period is, for example, “50” or less. In addition, it is possible to execute a display function operation game at the time of push order bell winning in the two games that have won the push order bell.

(12) In the eleventh embodiment, based on the difference in the number of bets, the winning number for the AT high-accuracy period during 1BB game is provided in one range. However, if the number of bets is the same (for example, 3) in both the normal game and the 1BB game, and if the winning probability of the AT high-accuracy period is the same, based on the winning combination (the winning condition device) It is possible to perform a lottery during the AT high-accuracy period.
For example, in a normal game, the winning probabilities of the AT high-accuracy periods of the part lottery result A, the part lottery result B, and the part lottery result C are set to “1/900”. That is, the winning probability of the AT high-accuracy period in the combination of the combination lottery result A, the combination lottery result B, and the combination lottery result C is “1/300”.

In this case, in the 1BB game in which the number of bets is the same as that of the normal game, the winning probability of the AT high-accuracy period when the result is the winning lottery result D can be set to “1/300”.
Further, in the combination lottery and the lottery in the AT high-accuracy period, lottery may be performed using the same random number value, or lottery may be performed using different random number values as shown in the second embodiment.
Furthermore, during the normal game, as shown in FIG. 16, there is a possibility of staying in any RT among non-RT, RT1, and RT2. Therefore, when performing a lottery during the AT high-accuracy period based on the lottery result, if the lottery is executed based on a role (small role or special role) whose winning range does not change by RT, the main control board 50 It leads to capacity reduction.

(13) The AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b of the above embodiment start counting with the start of the AT high-accuracy period, and end counting with the end of the AT high-accuracy period.
However, for example, when a special role is won and a transition is made to a special game, the game after the end of the special game is set to the AT high probability period. In other words, a special combination is provided which becomes an AT high probability period after the end of the special game.
In this case, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b may be counted at the start of the game won for the special role, the next game of the game won for the special role (internal game), or the start of the special game. .
Therefore, the AT high-accuracy counters 69a and 69b are counters that count game sections that are advantageous to the player, including special games, and can also be referred to as advantageous section counters.

(14) As described above, the AT high probability period may be displayed so that the player can understand. When displaying so that the player can know that the current game is an AT high-accuracy period, for example, using an information display device such as a segment display device or an effect output device such as a lamp, the AT high-accuracy period What is necessary is just to display.
Here, since the information display device such as the acquisition number display LED 39 is controlled by the main control board 50, when the AT high-accuracy period is displayed by the information display apparatus, the main control board 50 displays the AT high-accuracy period. The display is controlled. On the other hand, an effect output device such as the image display device 23 (liquid crystal display device) is controlled by the sub-control board 80, and therefore, when the AT high-accuracy period is displayed by the effect output equipment, the sub-control board 80 causes the AT. The display of the high-accuracy period is controlled.

As a specific method for notifying (displaying) the AT high-accuracy period to the player, for example, the following method may be mentioned.
In the above-described embodiment, the push order indication information is displayed using the acquisition number display LED 39. However, in this display, different displays are performed depending on whether the period is an AT high probability period or a non-AT high probability period. Is mentioned. For example, in the example of FIG. 22, an example of displaying “= 1” is shown, but it is assumed that this display is a display of a non-AT highly accurate period. In the AT high-accuracy period, for example, a display different from “= 1” is given, for example, “≡1”.

Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 22, the acquisition number display LED 39 is an LED composed of seven segments, but is not limited to this, and may be composed of eight segments. . Specifically, a dot-like segment is added to the lower right of seven segments representing numbers, such as “0.”.
Then, the display in the non-AT highly accurate period is “= 1 (dots are not lit)” as in the example of FIG. 22, and the display in the AT highly accurate period is “= 1. (Dots are lit)”. Display.

  In addition, it is possible to notify the image display device 23 (liquid crystal display device) that it is an AT high-accuracy period. In the case of displaying on the image display device 23, it is preferable to display the image display area in a size that is easy to visually recognize at a position where the player can easily visually recognize. Further, when a game is not performed for a certain period of time (while waiting for a game), the image display device 23 is controlled to shift to a demonstration screen. When the image display device 23 shifts to the demonstration screen during the AT high-accuracy period, it is not necessary to display that the AT high-accuracy period is in progress. Then, when a medal is inserted or when a game is started, it is possible to display that it is the AT high probability period. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and during the game standby, it may be notified that the AT high-accuracy period is in use by lighting patterns such as a side lamp and a lower panel provided in the slot machine 10.

Furthermore, when the AT high-accuracy period is notified by lighting the lamp, if the lighting area is small, the player may not easily understand the AT high-accuracy period. For this reason, it is preferable to ensure a certain lighting area when notifying the AT high-accuracy period by lighting the lamp. For example, if the size of the symbol attached to the reel 31 is set to be greater than or equal to the size of the symbol (for example, 25 mm or more and 35 mm or more), the player can easily know that it is the AT high-accuracy period when it is turned on.
Furthermore, the place where the lighting is performed is preferably in the visible range when the player plays a game. For example, a lamp disposed around the display window 11 of the reel 31 or a lamp provided on the upper portion of the slot machine 10 may be used.

  (15) In the above embodiment, the winning probability of the AT high-accuracy period in the non-AT high-accuracy period is “1/300”. Here, it is conceivable that the winning probability in the AT high-accuracy period varies depending on the set value, but it is preferable that the winning probability does not vary. That is, the winning probability during the AT high-accuracy period is set to a constant value regardless of the set value.

(16) When performing AT during the AT high-accuracy period, for example, it is conceivable to perform a plurality of ATs continuously. Specifically, the first AT is executed during the AT high-accuracy period, and the second AT is started in the next game of the final game of the first AT.
As described above, when performing AT multiple times during the AT high-accuracy period, it is conceivable that the AT execution pattern is set to be different depending on the set value. Regardless of whether it is constant.

  (17) In the twelfth embodiment, the RT (RT6) peculiar to the AT high-accuracy period is provided. However, RT transition is not necessarily required at the start and end of the AT high-accuracy period. That is, the transition to RT is not a condition for the end of the AT high-accuracy period. When the count value of the AT high-accuracy counter 69a or 69b satisfies the end condition for the AT high-accuracy period, the AT high-accuracy period is determined with the game. , And the next game will be a non-AT high-accuracy period. At this time, it does not matter whether RT shifts.

  (18) According to the rules of Unit 5, in order to avoid excessive gambling of the player, the appearance rate (machine discount) in 17500 games must be 55% or more and less than 120%. It is stipulated that it must be done. Here, regarding the AT high probability period, it is conceivable that a certain range is defined between 17500 games. Specifically, the proportion of the AT high-accuracy period among 17500 games may be set to 70% or less, for example. The reason for setting in this way is that after the AT high-accuracy period ends, the AT high-accuracy period is won immediately after the AT high-accuracy period, and so on. This is because it has the possibility of occupying many.

If the setting is made in this way, an AT high-accuracy counter 69d different from the above embodiment is provided, and this AT high-accuracy counter 69d indicates the number of games occupied by the AT high-accuracy period in the past 17500 games from the present time. Count. And, for example, when it is determined that the AT high-accuracy period has reached 70% or more between the past 17500 games (12250 games or more out of 17500 games), the AT high-accuracy period limiter is activated with the game, One example is to end the AT high-accuracy period. Note that even when the AT high-accuracy period ends in this way, as shown in the fourth embodiment, a specific effect can be output.
In addition, the number of games in the AT high-accuracy period between 17500 games (stored in a predetermined storage means) may be cleared when the setting is changed, or may not be cleared even when the setting is changed. It may be.
Furthermore, it is not limited to 17500 games but can be set to about 6000 games, for example. The reason for setting it to about 6000 games is that the number of games that the player will consume within the hall business hours of the day. Also when it sets between 6000 games, a count value may be cleared at the time of a setting change, and does not need to be cleared. Furthermore, when the game is set between 6000 games, for example, at the time of 4,000 games (midway), whether the proportion of the AT high probability period is 70% or less (the number of games in the AT high probability period is 2800 games or less) You may provide the judgment in a relay point, such as confirming it. Even when the 6000 game is set from the time of the setting change, the AT high accuracy period limiter is operated when the AT high accuracy period is 70% or more at the time of 6000 game digestion.

  (19) In the 2BB game, the reel 31 is controlled to stop so that eight winning combinations are won. However, since the stop control of the left reel 31 is stop control within 75 ms, the eight winning combinations may not be won. Yes, in this case, it was set to be a non-winning role. And in the said embodiment, it set so that a lottery of a combination might not be performed during 2BB game (refer FIG. 12). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a replay or special combination (RB or SB) can be drawn during the 2BB game. When a replay is won during 2BB game, the winning of the replay won is given priority over all the small roles for which the winning flag is set. Even when the replay is won, the stop control is performed for one reel 31 within 75 ms, but the replay is preferably “PB = 1”. Therefore, it is preferable to set the symbol combination of the replay and the symbol arrangement of the reels 31 so that the replay is won with “PB = 1” even when the replay is won during the 2BB game.

  Also, when a special combination (RB or SB) is won during 2BB game, the winning of the special combination won is given priority over all the small combinations for which the winning flag is set, as in the case of the above replay winning. Here, the priority ranking of winning combinations in the 2BB game is “replay> special combination (RB, SB)> all small combinations with flag set”. Therefore, for example, when both the replay and the special combination are won during the 2BB game, the replay winning is given the highest priority.

Note that “replay> special role> small role”, which is the priority order for winning a winning combination, can also be applied during normal games. When both the replay and special roles are won during the normal game, the replay winning is given priority. On the other hand, if both the special role and the small role are won during normal games, the special role is given priority, and if the special role cannot be won, the control is performed so that the small role is won next. To do.
Since the replay is normally set to “PB = 1”, when the replay winning is given priority, no role other than the replay wins.
The same applies to the case where a special role is won during a normal game and the game is shifted to an internal game. When a replay is won in an internal game, the replay winning is given priority over the special role carrying over the winning. On the other hand, when the small role is won in the internal game, the winning of the special role carrying over the win is given priority over the small role.

  (20) Each embodiment and various modified examples are not limited to being implemented alone, and can be implemented in appropriate combination.

In the conventional slot machine, during AT, the correct pressing order is displayed by the operation of the display function, so that it is possible to objectively determine whether or not the gaming situation is in accordance with the lottery result. On the other hand, in a situation where the display function is not activated (for example, during non-AT), there is a problem that it is not possible to objectively determine whether or not the gaming situation is in accordance with the lottery result. .
The problem to be solved by the invention 3 at the beginning is to enable objective judgment of whether or not the gaming situation is in accordance with the lottery result even in a situation where the display function is not activated. That is.

(A) Problem to be solved by the original invention 4 The original invention 4 relates to a slot machine having a high probability lottery period set with a high probability of deciding to execute the display function continuous operation period (AT). .
Conventionally, in a game in which an advantage / disadvantage is caused in the game result according to the operation mode of the stop switch, a display function operation game for operating a function for displaying an advantageous operation mode of the stop switch is executed in at least a plurality of games. A display function continuous activation period (AT) is known.
Here, in addition to what performs AT control (management) with a sub-control board, what performs with a main control board is known (for example, refer to Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 2014-150881).

In a conventional slot machine, even if AT control (management) is executed by either the main control board or the sub control board, there are cases where the number of balls in the AT is extremely large. For this reason, there is a risk of excessive gambling for the player.
Here, for example, it is conceivable to provide an upper limit value of a ball that includes an AT (to restrict the ball). However, the slot machine has a special game such as a BB game in addition to the AT. For example, when a special role is won during the AT and the special game is entered, Reaching the value is also conceivable. In such a case, it is not preferable to restrict the appearance based on the fact that the upper limit of the appearance has been reached without any advance notice, resulting in a surprise to the player.
The problem to be solved by the invention 4 at the beginning is to make the display function continuous operation period (AT) more appropriate by balancing the continuity of the display function continuous operation period (AT) with the ball, It is to be able to suggest that the upper limit value of the ball is approached.

Further, by setting the specific effect as an effect that is not normally output, a special effect (premier effect) can be shown to the player at the end of the high probability lottery period.

5). Initial invention 5
(A) Problem to be solved by the original invention 5 The original invention 5 relates to a slot machine having a high probability lottery period set with a high probability of deciding to execute the display function continuous operation period (AT). .
Conventionally, a slot machine in which a special combination such as 1BB and a rare combination are won is known. And when a special combination and a rare combination are won, there is a case of outputting a continuous effect over a plurality of games. When the continuous effect is output, an effect that suggests whether or not the special role has been won is output during the continuous effect (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-87634). Note that, in general, the continuous production is performed until the final game is completed, and whether or not a special role is won in the final game is notified.

In the conventional slot machine, when the special role is won and the output of the continuous effect is started, the continuous effect is inside the special role. On the other hand, when the continuous effect is output, it is assumed that the continuous effect is shown to the player until the end, so that the chance of winning a special role is reduced during the continuous effect in the special role. For this reason, outputting the continuous production leads to extending the inside of the special role.
The problem to be solved by the invention 5 at the beginning is to make the output frequency of the continuous effect appropriate when outputting the continuous effect in which the winning expectation of the special role is expected.

x1> 0, x2 ≧ 0, and x1> x2
And
A ratio of notifying the winning of the special role until the start of the next game of the game in which the special role is won and the special role is won without outputting the continuous performance during the high probability lottery period is x3 When
x3> x2
It is characterized by.

(C) Effect of Initial Invention 5 According to the initial invention 5, during the high-probability lottery period, the number of games in the special role can be reduced by reducing the output ratio of the continuous performance. Thereby, a high probability lottery period can be efficiently consumed.

(C) Effect of Initial Invention 6 According to the initial invention 6, a high-probability lottery period with a high probability of deciding to execute the display function continuous operation period is provided, and a high-probability opportunity is won. Since the high-probability lottery period is executed when the combination of symbols corresponding to the trigger is stopped, it is possible to vary the appearance ratio of the specific stop event between the high-probability lottery period and the non-high-probability lottery period.
