The front door 1b is pivotally supported at the side end of the housing 1a. As shown in FIG. 1, a predetermined portion of three reels 2L, 2C, and 2R (hereinafter also referred to as a left reel, a middle reel, and a right reel) disposed inside the housing 1a is disposed at the upper center of the front door 1b. A see-through window 3 is provided. As shown in FIG. 3, on the outer circumferences of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R, a plurality of types of symbols that can be distinguished from each other are drawn 21 in a predetermined order. The slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment is configured to include three reels 2L, 2C, and 2R as variable display units. However, the number of reels is not limited to three, and may be one. It may be 2 or more. In this embodiment, the physical reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are applied as the variable display unit. However, the variable display unit may be configured by an image display device such as a liquid crystal display.

  A liquid crystal display 51 having a display area 1a capable of executing a predetermined effect is provided in an area extending from the front side (player side) of the transparent window 3 to the upper part of the transparent window 3 in the front door 1b. The area corresponding to the transparent window 3 in the display area 1a is a transparent area 51b having transparency when no voltage is applied to the liquid crystal element, and the front surface through the transparent area 51b and the transparent window 3 is provided. The back side (reel side) can be viewed from the side (player side).

  In addition, the front door 1b is provided with a medal insertion portion 4 through which medals can be inserted, and a medal payout opening 9 through which medals are paid out. Number), the MAXBET switch 6 that is operated when setting a predetermined number of bets determined in accordance with the game state within the range of credits stored as a number), and the medals for the setting of credits and bets Settlement switch 10 that is operated when paying back and returning, Start switch 7 that is operated when starting the game, Stop switches 8L, 8C that are operated when stopping the rotation of reels 2L, 2C, and 2R, respectively. 8R, a production switch 56 used for production is provided.

  Further, the front door 1b has a credit indicator 11 for displaying the number of medals stored as credits, the number of medals paid out due to the occurrence of a prize, an error code indicating the contents when an error occurs, and a navigation notification described later. The game auxiliary display 12 displays information that can identify the order of stopping the reels, etc., 1 to 3 BETLEDs 14 to 16 that notify the set number of bets by lighting, and notifies that the medal can be inserted by lighting. Insertion request LED 17, start valid LED 18 that informs that the game start operation is valid by lighting, and wait (a state in which a reel rotation start is waited because a certain period has not elapsed since the previous game start) Waiting LED 19 to notify that there is a light, Lip to notify that a replay game is in progress Gaming display section 13 b in LED20 is provided is provided. The game auxiliary indicator 12 has a plurality of segments (for example, eight segments), and controls each segment to be turned on or off, so that numbers (0 to 9), alphabets (S, B), codes (. ) And the like can be displayed in a recognizable manner. In this embodiment, the game auxiliary display 12 is constituted by a display having a plurality of segments, but a display other than the display having a plurality of segments, for example, a liquid crystal display or the like is used as the game auxiliary display 12. The structure to be used may be used. Moreover, the structure using the one indicator which can display a several number, an alphabet, etc. so that recognition is possible may be sufficient.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an internal structure of the slot machine 1, and FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing a configuration of the slot machine 1. The slot machine 1 includes a main control unit 41 that controls the progress of the game and outputs various commands in accordance with the progress of the game, and is used for the progress of the game, such as the switches of the start switch 7 described above. Is directly connected to the game control board 40 to which the player is connected, the sub-control unit 91 for controlling the presentation according to the command, the stage control board 90 to which the stage device such as the liquid crystal display 51 is connected, and the sub-control unit 91. Various effect devices (for example, liquid crystal display 51, effect switch 56, etc.) that are controlled manually or indirectly are provided.

  When a game is played in the slot machine 1, the main control unit 41 first inserts a medal from the medal insertion unit 4 or operates the MAXBET switch 6 to operate a predetermined number of bets (for example, 3 ) Is set. Then, the winning line LN is validated and the acceptance of the operation of the start switch 7 is validated so that the game can be started. In addition, when a medal is inserted in a state where a predetermined number of bets is set, it is added to the credit, and the medal is inserted in a state where the credit reaches the upper limit value (50 in this embodiment). In the event of a failure, it will be returned from the medal payout exit 9.

  The winning line is a line for determining whether the symbol combination displayed on the see-through window 3 of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R is a winning symbol combination. In the present embodiment, the configuration has one winning line LN as the winning line, but a configuration having two or more winning lines may be used.

  When the start switch 7 is operated in a state where the game can be started, the main control unit 41 rotates the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R to display the symbols in a variable manner. In this state, when the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated, rotation of the corresponding reel is stopped, and three symbols are derived as display results in the upper, middle, and lower stages of the see-through window 3. As a display result, winning occurs when a combination of symbols (for example, “bell-bell-bell”) constituting a predetermined winning combination (for example, bell) on the winning line stops. When a winning occurs, a predetermined number of medals predetermined for each winning combination is awarded to the player according to the winning, and the number of medals to be given is added to the credit. When the credit reaches the upper limit number (50 in this embodiment), medals that are not added to the credit are paid out from the medal payout opening 9.

  The “game” in the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment means, in a narrow sense, from when the start switch 7 is operated until the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are stopped, but when the game is played, the operation of the start switch 7 is performed. Since the bet number is set before, the medals are paid out and the game state is shifted after the reels 2L, 2C, 2R are stopped, these incidental processes are also included in the “game” in a broad sense.

  In this embodiment, the player operates the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R in the order of operation (also referred to as the pushing order), in which the left reel 2L is first stopped and then the middle reel 2C is secondly stopped. This is called forward pressing, and the pressing order for stopping the right reel 2R for the second stop after stopping the left reel 2L for the first time is called forward pressing. After the middle reel 2C is stopped for the first time, the left reel 2L is moved to the second position. The pushing order to stop is called middle left pushing, and after pushing the middle reel 2C for the first stop, the pushing order to make the second reel 2R stop second is called middle right pushing, and after the right reel 2R is first stopped, The pushing order that causes the left reel 2L to stop for the second time is referred to as reverse pinching pushing, and the pushing order that causes the middle reel 2C to stop for the second time after the right reel 2R is first stopped is referred to as reverse pushing.

  In the present embodiment, the symbols that can be selected as the stop symbols are the total including the symbols displayed when the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated and the four symbols ahead of the four symbols. It is a design for 5 frames. For this reason, for example, when any one of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is operated and the symbol displayed on the lower stage of the reel corresponding to the stop switch is used as a reference, the symbol from the symbol to four frames ahead is used. Since the symbols can be displayed in the lower stage, when any one of the stop switches 8L, 8R is operated in each of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R, it is displayed on the winning line corresponding to the stop switch, that is, in the middle stage of the reel. The symbols arranged within 5 frames including the displayed symbols can be drawn on the winning line and stopped.

  In the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 determines whether the internal lottery win status and the ROM of the main control unit 41 when the rotation of the reels starts and when the reels stop and the reels that are still rotating still remain. The stop control table is created for each rotating reel with reference to the table index and table creation data stored in the table. Then, when the operation of the stop switch corresponding to the rotating reel is effectively detected, the number of sliding symbols is obtained based on the corresponding reel stop control table, and the rotation of the reel operated by the stop switch is obtained. The reel stop control is performed so that only the symbols corresponding to the number of sliding frames are drawn from the symbol when the stop switch is operated and stopped. In the stop control table, a value of 0 to 4 is determined as the number of sliding frames, and it is possible to stop the reel by drawing in a maximum of 4 symbols after the operation of the stop switch is detected. That is, when the operation of the stop switch is detected, the symbols arranged in the range of a maximum of 5 symbols from the symbol positioned on the winning line to the 4 symbols ahead can be stopped on the winning line.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, for example, in the left reel, “bell” symbols are arranged within 5 symbols, that is, within 4 frames, and the stop switch 8L is operated at any timing. Can also be pulled in. Similarly, the symbols “Bell” and “Replay a” on the middle right reel are arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less, and can be pulled in by operating the stop switch at any timing. Yes. On the other hand, for example, the “red 7” symbol on the left reel is not arranged within 5 symbols, that is, within 4 frames, so that it cannot be pulled in unless the stop switch 8L is operated at an appropriate timing. It has become. Also, the left reel “blue 7” “white 7” “BAR” “cherry a” “cherry b” “watermelon” “replay a” “replay b” “plum” design, “red 7” “ Similarly, the symbols “Blue 7”, “White 7”, “BAR”, “Cherry a”, “Cherry b”, “Watermelon” and “Plum” are not arranged within 5 symbols, that is, within 4 frames. If the stop switch 8L is not operated, it cannot be retracted.

  The main control unit 41 according to the present embodiment performs an internal lottery to determine whether or not to accept a prize for each predetermined combination at a predetermined probability according to the gaming state at the start of the game. A winning flag capable of specifying the lottery result is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c, and then, when the stop switch corresponding to the reel is operated, the corresponding reel is stopped based on the winning flag set in the RAM 41c. Perform stop control.

  The types of winning combinations for internal lottery are determined according to the gaming status, and can be broadly divided into small roles with payout of medals, and the next game can be started without the need to set the number of bets. A re-playing role that becomes possible and a special role that accompanies a transition to a gaming state that is advantageous to the player are defined. Below, a small role and a re-playing role are collectively called a general role. In order to win each winning combination, it is necessary to win the internal lottery and set the winning flag of the winning combination in the RAM 41c. Of the winning flags for each of the winning combinations, the winning flags for the small role and the replaying player are valid only in the game in which the flag is set, are erased at the end of the game, and are invalid in the next game. However, the special combination winning flag is not deleted at the end of the game until the combination of the combinations permitted by the flag is completed, and is valid after the next game. Becomes invalid. In other words, once the special combination winning flag is won, even if the combination of the combinations permitted by the flag cannot be made, the winning flag is not invalidated and is carried over to the next game. It becomes. In addition, for the winning combination in the internal lottery, the symbols constituting the winning combination are stopped on the winning line LN only when the stopping operation is performed in a predetermined order, and a winning is generated. The winning combination can be stopped by aligning the winning combination LN and the symbols that make up the winning combination LN regardless of the stopping order. And a re-playing role (sometimes referred to as a non-pushing forward role).

  In the reel stop control, the main control unit 41, for any reel for which the stop switch is operated, based on the winning flag set in the RAM 41c, In the case where the reel rotation is stopped so that it is drawn and stopped within the range of the maximum 5 symbols mentioned above in preference to the constituent symbols of the winning combination, and if any of the roles are not won in the internal lottery, Control is performed to stop the rotation of the reels so that symbols other than the constituent symbols of each combination are drawn and stopped so that the symbols of any combination do not stop on the winning line LN. As a result, by operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R at a timing at which the winning combination is won in the internal lottery and the constituent symbols of the winning combination can be stopped on the winning line LN, Are stopped in line with the winning line LN, and the winning combination is generated.

  In addition, when the winning combination of the special combination and the general combination is set simultaneously as the winning flag, the main control unit 41 gives priority to the above-described maximum configuration symbol of the general combination selected in the reel stop control. The game is drawn and stopped within a range of 5 symbols, and a special combination win is generated only in a game in which no general combination is won. In addition, reel control is performed so that the winning combination in the priority order of replaying role> small role> special role among the winning points in the internal lottery is performed, and in particular, the replaying role is won as a general role. Sometimes, the reels are controlled so as to win the re-gamer regardless of the stop order or stop timing, and if the special player and the re-gamer are won at the same time, the re-gamer will always win.

  The main control unit 41 according to the present embodiment can be controlled to an assist time (hereinafter referred to as AT) that is a notification period in which a navigation notification for notifying an operation mode that is advantageous to the player can be performed according to the internal lottery result. ing.

  As shown in FIG. 5A, in this embodiment, a predetermined number is assigned in advance as a navigation number for each mode of operation for stopping the reel. When the navigation control is not performed, that is, when the navigation control is not performed, that is, when the control is not performed by the AT, or when the control is performed by the AT but the predetermined navigation target combination is not elected in the internal lottery, the main control unit 41 A navigation number (in this embodiment, “0”) indicating a standard stop order that is not disadvantageous or advantageous to the player is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c, and the navigation number is not displayed on the game auxiliary display 12. On the other hand, when navigation notification is performed, that is, when the control is performed by the AT and a predetermined navigation target combination is won in the internal lottery, a stop switch that is advantageous to the player according to the selected navigation target combination A navigation number corresponding to the operation mode of 8L, 8C, 8R is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c, and the navigation number is displayed on the game auxiliary display 12 so as to be identifiable. As the navigation notification, the navigation number is displayed on the game auxiliary display 12 to notify an operation mode that is advantageous to the player according to the internal lottery result. When the navigation number is displayed on the game auxiliary display 12, each segment of each display constituting the game auxiliary display 12 is displayed in a lighting mode (for example, FIG. 5B) that can recognize the corresponding navigation number. As shown in the figure, “1” is displayed on the game auxiliary display 12L so that the navigation number “1” can be identified, and the game auxiliary display 12R is turned on in a non-display manner.

  Further, the main control unit 41 transmits, to the sub-control unit 91, a push order command that can specify a navigation number set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c at the start of the game. At this time, if navigation notification is not performed on the main control unit 41 side, a push order command capable of specifying a standard push order that can specify a push order (in this embodiment, “0”) is transmitted. On the other hand, in the case of performing the navigation notification, a navigation number ("1" to "9" in this embodiment) that can specify an operation mode that is advantageous to the player according to the internal lottery result is set. Then, a push order command capable of specifying the navigation number is transmitted to the sub-control unit 91, and the sub-control unit 91 performs the AT control on the main control unit 41 side. The operation mode that is advantageous to the player can be specified according to the internal lottery result based only on the navigation number.

  Next, the transition of the control state related to the AT controlled by the main control unit 41 will be described with reference to FIG.

  The main control unit 41 according to the present embodiment has a control state related to the AT in a non-AT state that is not controlled by the AT, an AT state that is controlled by the AT (advantageous state), and a specific state that is controlled after the end of the AT state. It is possible to control.

  In the non-AT state as the AT control state, the main control unit 41 does not perform AT control, and navigation notification is not performed even when the push order is won in the internal lottery. The winning combination cannot be surely won, and the winning probability of the small combination is lower than the AT state in which the AT is controlled. In addition, when a predetermined AT lottery target is won by internal lottery, AT lottery is performed to determine whether or not to control to AT, and when it is determined to control to AT by AT lottery, When a predetermined start condition is satisfied (in this embodiment, a predetermined precursor period elapses after winning in the AT lottery), the non-AT state is terminated and the state is shifted to the AT state.

  In the AT state (advantageous state), the main control unit 41 performs navigation notification every time a predetermined navigation target combination (in this embodiment, push forward) is won in the internal lottery, and according to the internal lottery result An operation mode that is advantageous to the player is notified in a recognizable manner. As a navigation target role, navigation notification is performed when a push order combination is won, so that the winning push combination is reliably won by operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in the operation mode notified by the navigation notification. Therefore, the winning combination probability of the small role is higher than that in the non-AT state in which the AT is not controlled. In addition, as a predetermined lottery condition, the control of the AT is continued every time when the prescribed number of games (for example, 50 games) is established in the state controlled in the AT state and the second gaming state described later. If a continuous lottery to determine whether or not to continue in the continuous lottery is determined (continuation), the AT state is continued, but not continued in the continuous lottery (non-continuation) ) Is determined, the AT state is terminated. Thereafter, when a predetermined start condition (in the present embodiment, the fact that the second gaming state described later has ended after it has been determined that the continuation lottery does not continue) is established, the state is shifted to the specific state.

  Further, the main control unit 41 performs an extra lottery to determine whether or not to add the prescribed number of games controlled to the AT state every time a specific combination is won in the internal lottery, and 1 or more in the extra lottery When the number of added games is won, the number of won games is added to the specified number of games controlled by the AT, and the AT is controlled over the specified number of games after the addition, and the specified number of games is played. Continue lottery. In addition, in the extra lottery, when the second specific combination is won as the specific combination, a larger number of added games is more likely to be won than when the first specific combination is won.

  In the specific state, the main control unit 41 determines the number of games to be controlled to the specific state (10 + α game, α is 0 to 10 games in this embodiment) when starting the control of the specific state. A lottery is performed to control a specific state over the number of games determined in the specific state period lottery. In the specific state, as in the non-AT state, the AT is not controlled, and even if the push advancement is won in the internal lottery, the navigation notification is not performed, so the winning push advancement that has been won is surely won. This is a state where the winning probability of the small role is lower than that in the AT state. On the other hand, in a specific state, when a predetermined pull-out lottery target is won in the internal lottery, a pull-back lottery is performed to determine whether to return to the AT state (advantageous state) controlled by the AT again. If it is decided to return to the AT state (advantageous state) in the return lottery, when the number of games determined at the start of the specific state has elapsed and the specific state is ended, the winning lottery will be won Then, a pull-back notification for notifying that the vehicle is pulled back to the AT state is performed again. After the specific state is terminated, the state is shifted to the AT state (advantageous state), and AT control is started again. If it is decided not to return to the AT state (advantageous state) in the pull-back lottery, when the specific state is terminated, it is not won in the pull-back lottery in the specific state, and the AT state is again entered A non-return notification indicating that it is not pulled back is performed, the specific state is terminated, and then the state is shifted to the non-AT state.

  In the pull-back lottery, when the second specific combination is won as the specific combination, it is returned to the AT state (advantageous state) controlled by the AT again with a higher probability than when the first specific combination is won. The fact is decided.

  Further, in this embodiment, at the end of the specific state, a pull-back notification or a non-retraction notification is performed to notify whether or not the pull-back lottery is won in the specific state. If the winning lottery is won, a pullback notice is given. If the winning lottery is not won, no pullback notice or pullback notice is given. It may be configured to notify whether or not the winning is made. Further, in this embodiment, at the end of the specific state, a pull-back notification or non-retraction notification is performed to notify whether or not the pull-back lottery is won in the specific state. The configuration may be such that every time a lottery is performed, the result of the withdrawal lottery is notified.

  In the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 performs a continuous lottery every time a predetermined number of games are played in the AT state, and continues the AT state when it is determined to continue the continuous lottery. On the other hand, it is configured to end the AT state when it is determined not to continue, but the main control unit 41 sets the number of medals to be paid out in accordance with the winning of the small role in the AT state, and the number of bets It may be configured such that a continuous lottery is performed every time the difference number, which is the difference from the number of medals used in the game, reaches a predetermined number (for example, 100), or at the start of the AT state and at the continuous lottery Each time a continuation is determined, the number of games and the number of differences to be controlled in the AT state are determined by lottery, and the control is performed in the AT state over the determined number of games and the number of differences, and the period during which the AT state is controlled In the predetermined extraction When the conditions (for example, a predetermined role is won in the internal lottery) is established, an extra lottery is added to add the number of games and the number of differences to be controlled to the AT state. The configuration that controls the AT state over the number of games and the difference number, the number of games and the difference number to be controlled to the AT state at the start of the AT state are determined by lottery, and continues after controlling to the AT state over the number of games and the difference number The configuration may be such that the AT state is terminated without performing lottery or extra lottery.

  Further, in this embodiment, the main control unit 41 performs a pull-back lottery when a predetermined pull-out lottery target is won in the internal lottery in the specific state, and the AT state (advantageous state) in the pull-back lottery. If it is determined to return to the specified state, a return notification is made when the specific state is ended, a return notification is made to notify that the state is returned to the AT state again, and after the specific state is ended, again In the configuration in which the state is shifted to the AT state (advantageous state), the specific state is the AT state after the end of the specific state. As long as it is in a state where it is notified whether or not it is controlled, it may be configured to perform at least a pull-back notification. In such a configuration, the main control unit 41 may determine whether or not to shift to the AT state (advantageous state) again before performing the pull-back notification. For example, at the start of the specific state, the AT state again Configuration for determining whether or not to shift to (advantageous state), configuration for determining whether or not to shift to AT state (advantageous state) again at the end of the specific state, AT state before starting the specific state (advantageous) In the state), it may be configured to determine whether or not to shift to the AT state (advantageous state) again. In addition, when it is determined to continue the AT state in the continuous lottery performed in the AT state (advantageous state) before starting the specific state, as a configuration for continuing the AT state through the specific state, The structure which alert | reports a result in a specific state may be sufficient.

  Further, in this embodiment, the main control unit 41 performs a pull-back lottery when a predetermined pull-out lottery target is won in the internal lottery in the specific state, and the AT state (advantageous state) in the pull-back lottery. When it is determined to return to the state, after the specific state is ended, the main control unit 41 again shifts to the AT state (advantageous state). Whether or not is determined by means other than lottery, for example, a predetermined mission in a specific state (for example, winning a predetermined combination a predetermined number of times, operating in a predetermined operation mode, etc.). May be.

  Next, the effect which the sub-control part 91 of a present Example performs using the liquid crystal display 51 is demonstrated based on FIGS.

  When receiving the command, the sub-control unit 91 according to the present embodiment refers to the control pattern table stored in the ROM 91b based on the command, and the liquid crystal display 51, the effect based on the control content registered in the control pattern table. By performing output control of various effect devices such as the effect LED 52, the speakers 53 and 54, and the reel LED 55, effects according to the effect patterns and the progress of the game are executed. In addition, when a new command is received during the execution of an effect triggered by the reception of a certain command, the sub-control unit 91 stops the effect based on the control pattern being executed, and changes to the newly received command. An effect based on the corresponding control pattern is executed. In other words, even if the production is not finished to the end, when a new command is received, the production that was being executed is canceled and a new command is received unless the received new command is not a command that triggers a new production. An effect based on the command is executed.

  In this embodiment, the main control unit 41 presses an internal winning command that can specify the type of the winning combination in the internal lottery and a navigation number set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c at the start of the game. A sub-control unit 91 includes a command group including a forward command, a control state related to AT, and a control state command that can specify a control state on the main control unit 41 side including an AT lottery result, a continuous lottery result, and a pullback lottery result. Send to. Further, each time the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated according to the progress of the game, the reel to be stopped is the reel of the left reel, the middle reel, or the right reel, and the corresponding reel is stopped. A stop command capable of specifying the position is transmitted to the sub-control unit 91. On the other hand, the sub-control unit 91 is based on the winning status of the internal lottery specified based on the internal winning command and the push order command, the control state related to the AT specified based on the control state command, and the stop command. Depending on the specified reel stop mode, it is possible to perform effects using various effect devices, particularly the liquid crystal display 51.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the liquid crystal display 51 has a display area 1a in which a predetermined effect can be executed. In the display area 1a, the liquid crystal display 51 corresponds to the see-through window 3 through which the reels 2L, 2C, 2R can be seen. Above the provided transmission area 51b, there is provided a predetermined effect area A in which a predetermined effect for displaying a character or message image corresponding to the model of the slot machine 1 and the progress of the game can be performed. . Also, in the vicinity of the transmission area 51b in the predetermined effect area A, there is provided a first notification area B that can be superimposed on the predetermined effect area A and can display a stop operation mode corresponding to navigation notification. . In addition, a second notification area C capable of displaying a stop operation mode corresponding to the navigation notification over a wider area than the first notification area B is provided below the transmission area 51b in the display area 1a. It has been.

  The sub-control unit 91 is a case where the winning of a specific winning combination (hereinafter, referred to as a specific winning combination) is specified in the internal lottery based on the internal winning command, and the control related to the AT based on the control state command. When it is specified that the state is the non-AT state, it is possible to perform a specific combination suggestion effect that suggests that the specific combination has been won in the internal lottery at the start of the game.

  The specific role suggesting effects include a specific role suggesting effect 1 that suggests the possibility that the first specific role that is an AT lottery target in the non-AT state is won as a specific role, and an AT lottery target role in the non-AT state And a specific combination suggesting effect 2 that suggests the possibility that the second specific combination having a higher probability of winning in the AT lottery than the first specific combination has been won as the specific combination. The sub-control unit 91 performs a specific role suggestion effect lottery to determine which specific role suggestion effect 1 or specific role suggestion effect 2 is to be performed as the specific role suggestion effect when performing the specific role suggestion effect. The specific role suggestion effect 1 and the specific role suggestion effect 2 determined in the above are performed, and in the specific role suggestion effect lottery, the first specific role is won in the internal lottery. In some cases, the ratio of performing the specific role suggesting navigation 1 is high, while when the second specific combination is won in the internal lottery, the ratio of performing the specific combination suggesting navigation 2 is set to be high. .

  As shown in FIG. 8 (a), in the specific role suggestion effect 1, an effect image (in this embodiment, the character image and "" indicating that there is a high possibility that the first specific role has been won in the internal lottery. ! ”Is displayed in the predetermined effect area A of the liquid crystal display 51 to indicate the possibility that the specific combination has been won. In addition, as shown in FIG. 8B, in the specific role suggestion effect 2, an effect image (in this embodiment, a character image that suggests that there is a high possibility that the second specific role has been won in the internal lottery. And a “chance” message) are displayed in the predetermined effect area A to indicate the possibility that the specific combination has been won. In the specific role suggestion effect including the specific role suggestion effect 1 and the specific role suggestion effect 2, the effect image suggesting the winning of the specific role is not displayed in the first notification area B and the second notification area C. The stop operation mode corresponding to the navigation notification described later is not displayed. In addition, the specific role suggestion effect suggests that the specific role has been won in the non-AT state, and it is suggested that the specific role is won and the AT lottery is performed and controlled to the AT state. The Rukoto.

  The sub control unit 91 recognizes that during the period in which the control state related to AT is controlled to the AT state on the main control unit 41 side, it is controlled to an AT state different from the non-AT state (for example, A predetermined effect of the liquid crystal display 51 is an effect of contents according to one theme and the model of the slot machine 1 and an effect performed using one data preliminarily configured as an effect over a plurality of games over a plurality of games. This is performed using the region A. Further, when the control state related to AT is specified to be the AT state based on the control state command, and the winning of the push forward is specified in the internal lottery based on the internal winning command, that is, the main control When navigation notification is performed on the part 41 side, a navigation effect that notifies the stop operation mode corresponding to the navigation number notified on the main control part 41 side specified on the basis of the push order command is started. From time to time, the first notification area B and the second notification area C are used. In addition, when it is specified that the control state related to the AT is the AT state based on the control state command and the winning of the specific role is specified by the internal lottery based on the internal winning command, the internal winning A specific effect suggesting that the specific combination specified based on the command has been won is performed using the second notification area C from the start of the game.

  As shown in FIG. 9A, in the navigation effect, it is advantageous for the player who is notified by the stop operation mode corresponding to the navigation number specified based on the push order command, that is, the navigation notification on the main control unit 41 side. A navigation image that can identify the stop operation mode is displayed in the first notification area B and the second notification area C of the liquid crystal display 51, and is notified by the output of the navigation sound from the speakers 53 and 54. For example, in order to notify the stop order in the middle right and left which is the operation mode corresponding to the navigation number “3”, “231” (the left reel is the second stop, the middle reel is the third stop, and the right reel is the first stop. A navigation image indicating the stop order of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is displayed in the first notification area B and the second notification area C (see FIG. 9A). In addition, as the navigation voice, for example, “left middle right!” (Indicating that the left reel is the first stop, the middle reel is the second stop, and the right reel is the third stop) Is output. Further, for example, when notifying the stop order in which the left reel, which is the stop operation mode corresponding to the navigation number “5”, is set as the first stop, “1−−” (that the left reel is the first stop). A navigation image indicating the stop order of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is displayed in the first notification area B and the second notification area C (not shown). Further, as the navigation voice, for example, “left!” (Indicating that the left reel is in the first stop) (indicating that the left reel is in the first stop) indicating the stop switch stop order is output. To do. Further, when the sub control unit 91 displays the navigation image in the first notification area B and the second notification area C, the display mode of the navigation image to be displayed in the second notification area C is the first display area B. Display mode emphasized compared to the display mode of the navigation image displayed in the notification area B (in this embodiment, the navigation image of the second notification area C is displayed larger than the navigation image of the first notification area B) Display).

  In this embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 displays the navigation image in the second notification area C as the first notification when displaying the navigation image in the first notification area B and the second notification area C. The display mode of the navigation image displayed in the second notification area C is compared with the display mode of the navigation image displayed in the first notification area B. For example, the brightness and density of the navigation image displayed in the first notification area B may be the same as the brightness and density of the navigation image displayed in the second notification area C. In the second notification area C, only the navigation image is displayed, while the first notification area B displays the navigation image superimposed on the AT effect image. The navigation image to be displayed in the second notification area C is the first A notification area configuration or the like to be emphasized compared to the navigation image displayed on the B may be. In the present embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 displays navigation images in the first notification area B and the second notification area C provided in the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51 when performing a navigation effect. Although it is the structure which alert | reports the stop operation aspect alert | reported by the navigation alerting | reporting by the main control part 41 side by making it display, the sub control part 91 alert | reports the predetermined area | region outside the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51. The area may be configured to notify a stop operation mode notified by navigation notification in the notification area. As such a configuration, for example, a lamp corresponding to the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is provided on the front door 1b of the slot machine 1, and the lamp is turned on in a lighting mode corresponding to the stop operation mode notified by the navigation notification. Thus, it is possible to notify the stop operation mode notified by the navigation notification, and for example, by providing a display capable of displaying at least numbers on the front door 1b of the slot machine 1, the navigation can be performed. By displaying the stop operation mode notified by the notification in a recognizable display mode, the stop operation mode notified by the navigation notification can be notified.

  In the present embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 displays navigation images in the first notification area B and the second notification area C as a navigation effect, that is, a stop operation that is notified by navigation notification in two areas. Although it is the structure which alert | reports a state, the structure which alert | reports the stop operation state alert | reported by navigation alert | reporting in one area | region or three or more area | regions as a navigation effect may be sufficient. In such a configuration, it is sufficient that the stop operation state notified by the navigation notification on the main control unit 41 side is notified in at least one predetermined region, and in other regions other than the predetermined one region. A configuration in which a part of the content notified by the navigation notification is notified, and in other areas, a content that is different from the content notified by the navigation notification, for example, a combination of the winning operation with the stop operation mode notified by the navigation notification. It may be a configuration that suggests the type.

  As shown in FIGS. 9 (b) and 9 (c), the specific effect suggesting Navi 1 suggesting that there is a high possibility that the first specific combination that triggers the extra lottery in the AT state will be won, Specified role suggestion navigation that suggests that there is a high possibility that the second specified role having a higher probability of winning the number of added games is higher than the case where the first specified role is won in the AT state as an opportunity for the additional lottery 2 is included. When performing a specific effect in the AT state, the sub-control unit 91 performs the specific effect lottery 1 for determining whether the specific role suggesting navigation 1 or the specific role suggesting navigation 2 is performed as the specific effect, The specific role-suggesting navigation 1 and the specific role-suggesting navigation 2 determined in this way are performed, and in the specific effect lottery 1 in the AT state, the first specific role is won in the internal lottery. When the second specific combination is won in the internal lottery, the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 is set to be high when the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 is performed. Yes. The specific effect suggests that the specific role was won in the AT state, and it was suggested that the specific role won and added lottery, and that the number of games controlled to the AT state could be added. The Rukoto.

  As shown in FIG. 9B, in the specific role suggesting navigation 1, a navigation image (in the present embodiment, “!!!!”) suggesting that there is a high possibility that the first specific role has been won in the internal lottery. ) Is displayed in the second notification area C of the liquid crystal display 51 to indicate the possibility that the specific combination has been won. Further, as shown in FIG. 9C, in the specific role suggesting navigation 2, a navigation image (in this example, “thermal heat” suggesting that there is a high possibility that the second specific role is won in the internal lottery. The “heat” image) is displayed in the second notification area C of the liquid crystal display 51 to indicate the possibility that the specific combination has been won. In the specific effects including the specific combination suggesting navigation 1 and the specific combination suggesting navigation 2, a navigation image indicating that the specific combination is won is not displayed in the predetermined effect area A or the first notification area B. ing. In addition, the specific effect suggests that the specific role has been won in the AT state, and it is possible that the specific role will be won and the lottery will be performed to increase the number of games controlled in the AT state. Will be.

  The sub-control unit 91 recognizes that it is controlled to a specific state different from the non-AT state or the AT state during the period in which the control state related to AT is controlled to the specific state on the main control unit 41 side. An effect (for example, an effect of the content inherited from the effect pre-configured according to the theme of the effect during the AT and the model of the slot machine 1, and one data pre-configured as an effect over a plurality of games over a plurality of games Using the predetermined effect area A of the liquid crystal display 51. Further, when it is specified that the control state related to the AT is a specific state based on the control state command, and the winning of the push forward is specified in the internal lottery based on the internal winning command, the main It is a case where it is specified that the control state related to AT is in a specific state based on the control state command while not performing the navigation effect informing the stop operation mode notified by the navigation notification on the control unit 41 side. In addition, when the winning of the specific role is specified by the internal lottery based on the internal winning command, a specific effect is performed. The main control unit 41 performs the specific effect in the specific state in the same manner as the specific effect performed in the AT state, and when the winning of the specific role is specified, the specific effect lottery 2 is performed. The specific combination suggestion navigation 1 determined by the specific production lottery 2 and the navigation image corresponding to the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 are displayed in the second notification area, thereby notifying that the specific combination has been won in the internal lottery. To do. The specific effect suggests that the specific role has been won in the specific state, so that the specific role is won and a pull-back lottery is performed, and the AT state may be controlled again by being pulled back to the AT state. It will be suggested.

  As shown in FIG. 10A, in the specific effect lottery 2, whether or not the return to the AT state is won in the pullback lottery performed in the specific state, and the specific combination won in the internal lottery is the first. The specific combination suggesting navigation 1 or the specific combination suggesting navigation 2 is determined as the specific performance in the specific state depending on whether the specific combination is the second specific combination or the second specific combination.

  In particular, as shown in FIG. 10 (b), when the return to the AT state is not won in the pull-back lottery performed in connection with the winning of the specific role that triggered the specific performance. The ratio of the probability (d) of performing the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 in the probability (c + d) of performing either the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 or the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 at the time of winning the second specific combination is the first specific It is set to be higher than the ratio of the probability (b) of performing the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 in the probability (a + b) of performing either the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 or the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 at the time of winning the combination. Yes. In addition, if the return to the AT state is won in the pull-back lottery performed in connection with the winning of the specified role that triggered the specific performance, the specified role suggestion at the time of winning the second specified role The ratio of the probability (h) of performing the specific role suggesting navigation 2 in the probability (g + h) of performing either the navigation 1 or the specific role suggesting navigation 2 is the specific role suggesting navigation 1 or the specific role at the time of winning the first specific role It is set to be higher than the ratio of the probability (f) of performing the specific role suggesting navigation 2 in the probability (e + f) of performing any of the suggesting navigations 2. Thereby, it is suggested that the second specific combination is more likely to be won than the first specific combination by performing the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 as the specific effect.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 10 (c), when the return to the AT state is won in the pull-back lottery, the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 and the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 when the first specific combination is won. The ratio of the probability (f) of performing the specific role suggestion navigation 2 in the probability (e + f) of performing any of the above is the case where the return to the AT state is not won in the pull-back lottery, and the first specific It is set to be higher than the ratio of the probability (b) of performing the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 in the probability (a + b) of performing either the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 or the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 at the time of winning the combination. Yes. Further, in the case where the return to the AT state is won in the pull-back lottery, the probability (g + h) of performing either the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 or the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 when winning the second specific combination The ratio of the probability (h) of performing the specific role suggestion navigation 2 is the case where the return to the AT state is not won in the pull-back lottery, and the specific role suggestion navigation 1 and the specific time at the time of winning the second specific role It is set to be higher than the ratio of the probability (d) of performing the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 in the probability (c + d) of performing any of the combination suggestion navigation 2. Thereby, when the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 is performed as the specific effect, it is suggested that there is a high possibility that the return to the AT state is won in the pull back lottery.

  Next, with regard to the navigation effect and the specific effect performed by the sub-control unit 91, the flow of the effect in one game will be described based on FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the sub-control unit 91 starts rotation control of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R with the start of the game after performing a start operation when performing a navigation effect and a specific effect. Sometimes, control is started to display navigation images (for example, the navigation image “heat” of the specific role suggesting navigation 2 as a specific effect) for all the reels 2L, 2C, 2R in the second notification area C. Thereafter, each time the stop switch 8L, 8C, or 8R is operated, the navigation image for the corresponding reel is controlled to be hidden, while the navigation image for the reel for which the stop switch is not operated is continuously displayed. Control to maintain the state in which Thereafter, when the operation of the stop switch of the third stop operation is terminated (when the stop switch is pressed and then released), the navigation image for the third stop reel is controlled to be hidden. All the navigation images displayed at the start of the game are hidden, and the navigation effect and the specific effect are ended. As a result, in a game in which a navigation effect and a specific effect are performed, the navigation is performed over a period from when the game is started to when the reel is operated to stop all the reels, that is, during the game. The image is continuously displayed, and the stop operation mode notified by the navigation notification and the winning of the specific combination are suggested.

  Further, in the navigation effect, the navigation image is displayed in the first notification area B in a display mode smaller than the navigation image displayed in the second notification area C, as in the case where the navigation image is displayed in the second notification area C. By displaying, together with the notification in the second notification area, the stop operation mode notified by the navigation notification is also notified in the first notification area.

  In this embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 performs the second notification area when the rotation control of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is started with the start of the game when performing the navigation effect and the specific effect. The navigation image display is started in C. The timing for starting the display of the navigation image is that the rotation control of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is started with the start of the game from the start operation. Any configuration may be used as long as all the reels rotate at a constant speed and display of the navigation image is started at one timing within a period until the operation of all the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is validated. As described above, when the game is disclosed, the display of the navigation image by the navigation effect and the specific effect is started before the operation of the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R is validated, so that the stop switch 8L, 8C is displayed. In the state where the operation of 8R is effective, the navigation image can be displayed reliably and the winning of the specific combination can be notified. Further, in such a configuration, particularly when the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is validated, the start operation is performed by the configuration in which the navigation image and the display of the navigation image by the specific effect are started. In the period from when the operation is performed to the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R to the time when the operation of the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R is validated, the navigation effect and the specific effect are not displayed. Can maintain a sense of expectation of being elected.

  As described above, the main control unit 41 according to the present embodiment can be controlled to a plurality of control states including the non-AT state, the AT state, and the specific state as the control state related to the AT. When a predetermined navigation target combination is won in the internal lottery, it is possible to notify a navigation number that can recognize a stop operation mode advantageous to the player by navigation notification. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 12, when the navigation notification is performed on the main control unit 41 side, the sub control unit 91 notifies the stop mode corresponding to the navigation number notified by the navigation notification. Perform navigation. Further, when the main control unit 41 is controlled to the AT state, when the specific combination is won in the internal lottery, it is possible to perform a specific effect that suggests that the winning combination has been won. Even when the main control unit 41 side is controlled to a specific state after the AT state is ended, in the same manner as the effect mode performed when the main control unit 41 side is controlled to the AT state, When a specific role is won in the lottery, a specific effect is given to indicate that the winning role has been won, so that the AT state will continue to be controlled even in the specific state after the AT state has ended. The expectation can be maintained.

  In addition, when the sub control unit 91 performs the navigation effect, the sub control unit 91 sets a stop mode corresponding to the navigation number notified by the navigation notification in the first notification area B and the second notification area C in the liquid crystal display 51. When a recognizable navigation image is displayed and a specific effect is performed, a navigation image suggesting that the specific role has been won is displayed in the second notification area C of the liquid crystal display 51. The sub-control unit 91 performs a specific effect in the second notification area C in which the navigation effect is performed in the AT state, and the second notification region C in which the navigation effect is performed in the AT state even in the specific state. A specific production will be performed.

  In addition, when the sub control unit 91 is controlled in the non-AT state on the main control unit 41 side, when the specific combination is won in the internal lottery, the specific combination indicating that the winning combination is won While performing the suggestion effect, when the main control unit 41 is controlled to the AT state, it is possible to perform a specific effect that suggests that the winning combination has been won, and the AT state is ended. When controlled to a specific state later, when it is controlled to the AT state on the main control unit 41 side, not the specific combination suggestion effect performed when the main control unit 41 is controlled to the non-AT state Since the specific effect performed in the same manner as in the case of being controlled to the AT state, it is possible to maintain the expectation that the AT state will continue to be controlled even in the specific state. Going on.

  The conventional slot machine is controlled to an advantageous state (advantageous RT) advantageous to the player, and after the advantageous state (advantageous RT) is finished, it is controlled to a specific state (CZ) that is easily controlled to the advantageous state again. Has been proposed.

  In such a slot machine, after the advantageous state is finished, the state is controlled again to a specific state that is easily controlled to the advantageous state. Was not fully considered.

  On the other hand, the main control unit 41 of the present embodiment can be controlled to a plurality of control states as the control state related to the AT, and when the internal lottery result becomes a predetermined result in the control state related to the AT. In the notification state in which the operation mode according to the predetermined result is notified to the AT where the navigation notification for notifying the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R advantageous to the player according to the result of the internal lottery is performed. It is configured to include a controlled AT state and a specific state that is controlled after the end of the AT state and performs a pull-back lottery that determines whether to return to the AT state again. The sub-control unit 91 performs notification The liquid crystal display 51 is provided as a notification means that can perform the operation, and an operation notified by the navigation notification in a predetermined notification area of the liquid crystal display 51 when the navigation notification is performed on the main control unit 41 side. It is possible to perform a navigation effect that suggests a situation, and it is possible to perform a specific effect that suggests that the internal lottery has become the specific result when the specific role is won as the specific result. The sub-control unit 91 performs a specific effect in the notification area of the liquid crystal display 51 when the specific combination is won in the internal lottery when the control state related to the AT is the AT state, and the control state related to the AT is specified. When the specific combination is won in the internal lottery in the state, since the specific effect is performed in the notification area of the liquid crystal display 51, the specific effect performed in the AT state is also in the AT state in the specific state. This is performed continuously in a predetermined notification area common to the navigation effect of No. 1, and a sense of expectation for being controlled again in the AT state in the specific state can be maintained. Moreover, since the effect mode of the specific effect can be shared between the AT state and the specific state, the control related to the execution of the specific effect can be simplified.

  In the present embodiment, the notification state is a configuration in which the AT state controlled by the AT for which the navigation notification is performed is applied when a predetermined combination of the internal lottery is won. When the result is a predetermined result, any operation mode corresponding to the type of the predetermined result may be notified in the predetermined notification area of the notification means. Regardless of the state in which the operation mode for shifting to the high state is informed, the state in which the operation mode for avoiding the transition to the state of relatively low advantage is informed, and the advantage, the reels 2L, 2C, It may be configured to apply a state such as a state in which an operation mode for stopping a specific symbol in 2R is notified or a state in which an operation mode to which a predetermined privilege is given is notified. In addition, when an operation mode corresponding to a predetermined result type is notified in a specific gaming state, the specific gaming state may be applied as the notification state. A specific gaming state is, for example, a state where the probability of winning a small role in an internal lottery is higher than that of another state, and the probability of winning a small role in an internal lottery is compared to another state In a low state, the probability of winning a re-gamer in the internal lottery is higher than in another state, and the probability of winning a re-gamer in the internal lottery compared to the other state Applicable to low conditions.

  In this embodiment, the notification means applies the liquid crystal display 51 whose display content is controlled by the sub-control unit 91, and the second notification area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51 is used as the predetermined notification area. Although it is the structure which applies the alerting | reporting area | region C, an alerting | reporting means should just be provided with an alerting | reporting area | region and can alert | report an operation mode in the predetermined alerting | reporting area | region among alerting | reporting areas, and means other than the liquid crystal display 51 Even so, for example, by a lamp or LED that is provided on a panel or the like provided around the front door 1b or the see-through window 3 of the slot machine 1 and can be notified in a lighting mode, by an operable and player, etc. The structure which is provided so that visual recognition is possible, and the movable body which can alert | report by an operation | movement aspect, these combinations, etc. may be applied.

  In addition, the notification area is an area where some notification is performed in the notification means. In the case of a liquid crystal display, it corresponds to a display area where an image is displayed. It is.

  In addition, the predetermined notification area is an area where an operation mode is notified among a plurality of notification areas (for example, a display area by a liquid crystal display and a notification area by a lamp (LED)) included in the notification means, and one notification area (for example, , The display area of the liquid crystal display) is a part of the area where the operation mode is notified.

  In addition, the specific state is a state controlled after the AT state in this embodiment, and whether or not to shift to the AT state again when a predetermined pullback lottery object is won in the internal lottery. When the withdrawal lottery to be determined is performed and the withdrawal lottery is won, the configuration is shifted to the AT state (advantageous state) again after the specific state. As long as the specific state is ended, the pull-back notification or the non-retraction notification is performed at the end of the specific state, so that the control is returned to the notification state again after the specific state ends. It is possible to be in a state where it is notified whether or not it is performed, a state where it is notified whether or not it is controlled again to the notification state during the specific state, and a notification state again before the specific state is started. Whether it is controlled or not. Whether the control may be configured to condition or the like to be broadcast to.

  In addition, the main control unit 41 is configured to control other control states when controlling to a specific state, and the other control states have different probabilities of winning a small role in, for example, an internal lottery. In a configuration that can be controlled in multiple states, when the probability of winning a small role in the internal lottery is changed to a state where the probability of winning a small role in the internal lottery is changed to a specific state, control is also performed As another control state, for example, it is possible to control to a plurality of states with different probabilities of winning a re-gamer in internal lottery, and by controlling to the AT state, It is possible to maintain the first state with a high probability of winning, and it is difficult to maintain the first state because the AT state is not controlled. Move to second state with low chance of winning In the configuration that facilitates the control, the configuration may be such that the control is also performed in the specific state when the control is in the first state until the transition to the second state after the control of the AT state is completed. . In addition, by controlling to the AT state, it is possible to maintain the first state where the probability of winning the re-gamer in the internal lottery is maintained, and because the AT state is not controlled, the first state In the configuration that makes it easier to shift to the second state where the probability of winning the re-gamer than the state is low, the control is shifted from the first state to the second state after the control of the AT state is finished. Sometimes, it may be configured to control even a specific state.

  In the present embodiment, the specific result of the internal lottery means that the specific combination is won by the internal lottery. The specific combination is determined by the AT lottery to determine whether or not to control the AT, and the remaining AT. It is a role that triggers the extra lottery to decide whether or not to add the number of games, and it becomes a situation that a privilege that is advantageous to the player can be given by the special role winning as a specific result of the internal lottery The specific result of the internal lottery is not limited to a result in which a privilege that is advantageous to the player can be given. For example, the main control unit 41 can control to a different control state, and a predetermined combination is won. Thus, in the configuration in which the control state is shifted from one control state to another control state, a predetermined combination that triggers the transition of the control state is won by internal lottery, and the winning of the predetermined combination is Acceptable results For example, in an internal lottery, a winning combination of symbols including a specific symbol wins, resulting in a situation where a specific symbol can stop on the reel winning line, or in an internal lottery The result may be a situation where a specific symbol can be stopped on the reel winning line when a predetermined combination is not won or any combination is not selected. In such a configuration, a predetermined privilege may be given by stopping a specific symbol on the reel winning line, or a configuration in which the predetermined privilege is not given. May be.

  In the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 is configured to notify the navigation number that can recognize the operation order of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R as a stop operation mode advantageous for the player in the navigation notification. In the navigation notification, as a stop operation mode that is advantageous to the player, a configuration in which an operation mode operated at any one of the operation timings of a plurality of different stop switches may be notified, and a plurality of different stop switches The configuration may be such that the operation mode operated at any one of the operation timings and the operation mode based on the combination of the operation modes operated at any one of the plurality of operation orders are notified.

  In the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not to return to the AT state again when the specific combination is won in the internal lottery when the control state related to the AT is controlled to the specific state. If a pull-back lottery is performed, and a pull-back to the AT state is won again in the pull-back lottery, a pull-back notification is made to notify that the state is returned to the AT state again when the specific state is terminated, The configuration is such that after the specific state is ended, the AT state (advantageous state) is shifted again. The specific state may be any state as long as it is notified whether the AT state is controlled after the specific state ends. Alternatively, it may be configured to perform at least pull back notification.

  Further, in this embodiment, after the AT state controlled by the AT as an advantageous state advantageous to the player in the notification state is over, the state is controlled to the specific state, and in the specific state, it is determined whether or not to return to the AT state again. A configuration in which the control state other than the AT state, which is an advantageous state advantageous to the player, is applied as the notification state. For example, as an advantageous state, a special state in which a small role is won with a high probability in the internal lottery compared to other control states is applied, and a specific state is reached after the end of the special control state. In a specific state, a lottery for determining whether or not to control again in a special control state is performed, and by winning in the lottery, a configuration that is controlled again in a special control state, for example, advantageous As a state Applying an extra state in which an extra lottery to determine whether or not to add the number of games to be controlled to the AT state with a higher probability than the T state is applied, and controlling to a specific state after completion of the extra state, Alternatively, a configuration may be employed in which a lottery for determining whether or not to control again in the added state is performed, and the control is again performed in the added state by winning in the lottery.

  The sub-control unit 91 according to the present embodiment performs a navigation effect in the AT state in which a stop operation mode that is advantageous for the player is performed in a predetermined notification area in the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51, and a specific role. In the AT state and the specific state, it is possible to perform a specific effect that suggests winning, and the first notification area and the first notification area as the predetermined notification area in the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51 A second notification area that has a wider area than the notification area and can perform notification in a manner emphasized from the first notification area, and the sub-control unit 91 is in the AT state and the specific state. Since the specific effect is performed in the aspect emphasized from the effect mode in the first notification area by executing the specific effect in the second notification area in the predetermined notification area of the liquid crystal display 51, the specific Directing the player It can be effectively focused for.

  The sub-control unit 91 performs a specific effect in the second notification area in the predetermined notification area of the liquid crystal display 51 in the AT state and the specific state, thereby producing an effect mode in the first notification area. Although it is the structure which performs a specific production | presentation in the aspect emphasized more, in the aspect emphasized rather than the production | presentation aspect in a 1st alert | report area by means other than providing the alerting | reporting area | region which performs a specific effect comparatively widely The configuration may be such that a specific effect is performed. For example, the size of a navigation image displayed in the specific effect is relatively increased, and a notification area for performing the specific effect is provided at a central position when viewed from the front of the slot machine 1. That is, by providing a notification area for performing a specific effect at a position corresponding to the line of sight of the player of the slot machine 1, the specific effect is performed in a manner emphasized from the effect mode in the first notification area. Also good For example, in a configuration in which a notification area for performing a specific effect is provided in the display area of the liquid crystal display, the liquid crystal display for performing the specific effect is movably provided, and the liquid crystal display is moved, and the liquid crystal display is displayed. The specific effect may be emphasized by relatively increasing the brightness of an image related to the specific effect, or by decorating the liquid crystal display itself that performs the specific effect.

  The notification area where the sub-control unit 91 performs the navigation effect is not limited to the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51, and the reels 2L, 2C are provided on the front door 1b of the slot machine 1 or a panel provided around the see-through window 3. It may be configured by a lamp provided corresponding to 2R, a display other than the liquid crystal display, or the like. As such a configuration, for example, the sub-control unit 91 includes a lamp provided in a notification area in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51, a panel provided around the front door 1 b of the slot machine 1 and the see-through window 3, and the like. It is possible to perform a navigation effect in the notification area constituted by the information area, and the information area of the liquid crystal display 51 is more emphasized than the notification area constituted by a lamp or the like provided on the panel or the like. In the configuration in which the specific effect can be performed in the aspect, the specific effect that suggests the winning of the specific role is performed in the notification area of the liquid crystal display 51, so that the specific effect is enhanced. It can be performed.

  The slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment is an AT state controlled by an AT in which a navigation notification for notifying the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is performed according to the result of the internal lottery as an advantageous state advantageous to the player. And a control state related to a plurality of ATs including a specific state in which a pull-back lottery for determining whether or not to return to the AT state again is controlled. In the state, since the AT is not controlled, the winning percentage of the navigation target role is reduced compared to the AT state in which the AT is controlled, and the control is performed in a state where the value is given less than the advantageous state. Even when the AT state is controlled to the advantageous state again after passing through the specific state, it is possible to prevent the euphoria from being excessively increased.

  Moreover, in the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, since the specific effect is performed in the specific state to indicate the winning of the specific role, when the specific role is won in the internal lottery, the stop operation is performed based on the specific effect. By doing so, it is possible to prevent the winning specific role from being missed.

  The slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment is an AT state controlled by an AT in which a navigation notification for notifying the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is performed according to the result of the internal lottery as an advantageous state advantageous to the player. And a control state related to a plurality of ATs including a specific state in which a pull-back lottery for determining whether or not to return to the AT state again is controlled. After starting the control of the specific state after the end of the state, the specific state is ended by performing a predetermined number of specified games, so that it is guaranteed to stay in the specific state over the specified number of games. It is possible to increase the expectation of being controlled again in the AT state.

  In the present embodiment, the slot machine 1 is configured to end the specific state by starting the control of the specific state after the end of the AT state and then performing a predetermined number of games. In a state in which the specific state is being controlled, the specific state combination may be terminated by stopping a combination of predetermined symbols on the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R as a result of the game. By adopting the configuration, attention can be paid to the stop mode of the reel in the specific state.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 has an AT state controlled by the AT and a specific state in which a pull-back lottery is performed to determine whether to return to the AT state again after the AT state ends. In the internal lottery, it can be controlled to a plurality of gaming states having different winning probabilities for the small role and the re-gamer. Also good. In such a configuration, the period controlled to the specific state has a configuration that matches the period controlled to one gaming state, a configuration that matches a part of the period controlled to one gaming state, It may be a configuration over a period controlled by the gaming state. For example, the end condition for the AT state and the end condition for the predetermined gaming state are the same (for example, a predetermined combination of symbols stops on the reel, and a predetermined number of games have been played from a predetermined reference point. Etc.), the starting point of the period controlled to the specific state after the end of the AT state and the starting point of the period controlled to one gaming state after the end of the predetermined gaming state can be matched, Furthermore, the end condition of the specific state after the end of the AT state and the end condition of the one game state after the end of the predetermined gaming state are the same (for example, a combination of predetermined symbols is stopped on the reel) In other words, the period controlled to a specific state and the period controlled to one gaming state can be configured such that a predetermined number of games have been played from a predetermined reference point). . In addition, for example, the start point of the period controlled to the specific state after the end of the AT state is matched with the start point of the period controlled to one gaming state after the end of the predetermined gaming state, while the end of the AT state ends. It is controlled to a specific state by adopting a configuration in which a termination condition for a later specific state and a termination condition for one gaming state after the end of the predetermined gaming state are different conditions, or vice versa. The period may be configured to match a part of the period controlled to one gaming state, or may be configured to cover a period controlled by a plurality of gaming states.

  The main control unit 41 of this embodiment determines whether or not winning of a plurality of combinations including the first specific combination and the second specific combination is permitted in the internal lottery, and the control state related to the AT is set to the specific state. If the first specific combination and the second specific combination are elected in the internal lottery, a pull-back lottery is performed to determine whether or not to return to the AT state again. When the return to the AT state is won again in the lottery, it is configured to return to the AT state after the end of the specific state. In the pull back lottery, the second specific is made more than when the first specific combination is won. On the other hand, the sub-control unit 91 is set in a specific state on the main control unit 41 side while the probability that the return to the AT state is won as a privilege advantageous to the player when the winning combination is set. If controlled, specified by internal lottery When the first specific combination and the second specific combination are won, it is possible to perform a specific effect informing that the specific combination has been won. When the specific effect is performed including the navigation 2, a specific effect lottery 2 for determining which of the specific role suggestion navigation 1 and the specific role suggestion navigation 2 is performed is performed, and the specific role suggestion navigation winning in the specific effect lottery 2 is performed. 1 or a specific combination suggestion navigation 2, and in the specific effect lottery 2, the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 is one of the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 and the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 when the first specific combination is won. The ratio of winning is different from the ratio of the specified role suggesting Navi 2 among the specified role suggesting Navi 1 and the specified role suggesting NAVI 2 when the second specified role is winning. Ratio that specific role suggestion Navi 2 wins when winning In comparison, since the ratio that the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 wins when the second specific combination is won is set high, the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 is executed or the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 is executed. Depending on whether or not the first specific role with a different possibility of winning back to the AT state in the pull-out lottery as a bonus is won or whether the second specific role is won in the internal lottery Can be guessed.

  In addition, in this embodiment, by winning in the pull-back lottery in a specific state, it is a configuration in which a return to the AT state is given as a privilege advantageous for the player, the privilege advantageous for the player is The right to be able to shift to an advantageous state advantageous to the player (winning a lottery to determine whether or not to generate the advantageous state, allowing a prize to shift to the advantageous state, etc.), the player The right to be notified of an operation mode advantageous to the player, the right to be controlled to a gaming state with a high expected value to which a gaming value is given, and the right to be notified whether the current gaming state is a gaming state advantageous to the player It may be a privilege that is directly advantageous to the player, such as a period controlled by the advantageous state (the number of fixed games, the average value of the number of games that varies depending on the end condition, etc.) or directly to the player But not interest, for example, such a condition for obtaining the benefits on the Internet, may be indirectly favorable benefits for the player.

  The main control unit 41 according to the present embodiment is configured to perform a specific effect when the first specific combination and the second specific combination are won as the specific combination in the internal lottery in the specific state. The specific effect suggestion navigation 1 for determining whether to perform the specific role suggestion navigation 1 or the specific role suggestion navigation 2 is performed, and the specific role suggestion navigation 1 or the specific role suggestion navigation 2 won in the specific effect determination lottery 2 is performed. In the specific production lottery 2, when the pull-out lottery is won, the ratio of the specific-portion suggestion navigation 1 and the specific-portion suggestion navigator 2 among the specific-portion suggestion navigation 2 and the pull-out lottery are not won In this case, the ratio of the specific role suggestion navigation 2 and the specific role suggestion navigation 2 of the specific role suggestion navigation 2 is different from the winning ratio, and if the return lottery is won, the return lottery is not won. Compared to the case, the ratio that the specific role suggestion Navi 2 wins Is set to be high, whether or not the pull-back lottery is won, that is, whether or not the AT state is returned again, depending on whether the specific combination suggestion navigation 1 or the specific combination suggestion navigation 2 is executed. Can be guessed.

  When the game is started when the sub control unit 91 of the present embodiment is controlled to the AT state and the specific state on the main control unit 41 side and the specific combination is won in the internal lottery. After starting the specific effect, when the third stop operation of the reel is performed and the stop switch of the third stop is released, the specific effect is ended, and when the game ends Therefore, the fact that the specific combination has been won in the internal lottery can be continuously recognized until the end of the game.

  When the game is started when the sub control unit 91 of the present embodiment is controlled to the AT state and the specific state on the main control unit 41 side and the specific combination is won in the internal lottery. After the start of the specific effect, the third stop operation of the reel is performed, and when the third stop stop switch is released, the specific effect is ended, and the specific effect is ended before the game ends. Even if it is impossible to generate a winning combination, it will end at the same time as the operation that triggers the end of the game, so the combination of symbols of the specific winning combination won in the internal lottery in the middle of the game Even if it is impossible to stop the game, it is possible to recognize that the specific combination has been won in the internal lottery until the end of the game.

  In the present embodiment, the sub control unit 91 is controlled in the AT state and the specific state on the main control unit 41 side, and the game is started when the specific combination is won in the internal lottery. When a specific effect is started, the third stop operation of the reel is performed, and when the third stop stop switch is released, the specific effect is ended, and the game ends. However, the sub-control unit 91 may not stop the combination of symbols of the specific role on the reel before the end of the game game after starting the specific effect. It is good also as a structure which complete | finishes a specific effect, even if it is before the game is complete | finished when it comes to a possible situation. By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to recognize that it has become impossible to stop the combination of symbols of specific roles on the reel during the game.

  The main control unit 41 according to the present embodiment starts the rotation of the reels after the game start operation, and then stops all the stop switches 8L and 8C when all the reels are rotated at a predetermined constant speed. , While enabling the acceptance of the stop operation by 8R, the sub control unit 91 is controlled to the AT state and the specific state on the main control unit 41 side, and the specific combination is won in the internal lottery When the rotation of the reel is started at the start of the game, the specific effect is started. The specific effect is made before the stop operation acceptance by the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is validated. Since it is started, before the stop operation by the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, the specific combination is won by the internal lottery, and the combination of symbols of the specific combination can be stopped on the reel. It is possible to recognize the Rukoto.

  The sub-control unit 91 according to the present embodiment can perform an effect during AT that recognizes that the AT state is controlled in the AT state by using the predetermined effect region A in the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51. By using the second notification area C of the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51, it is possible to perform navigation notification with a specific effect that suggests that the internal lottery result has become a specific result in the AT state. It is possible to perform a navigation effect that informs the stop operation mode to be notified, and in the effect during AT, while performing the effect by using one pre-configured data over a plurality of games, the specific effect and the navigation In the production, when a predetermined condition is established, the production is performed using a navigation image that can identify the stop operation mode. In the specific production and the navigation production, the production during the AT is performed. However, by displaying the navigation image in the second notification area C, it is possible to superimpose the AT effect and the specific effect or the navigation effect in the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51, Even if a specific effect and a navigation effect may be performed during an AT effect, there is no need to interrupt the AT effect or reconfigure the data for performing the AT effect. An effect during AT can be performed using the one data.

  Further, the sub-control unit 91 can perform an effect during a specific state that recognizes that the specific state is controlled in the specific state, using the predetermined effect region A in the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51. In addition, using the second notification area C of the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51, it is possible to perform a specific effect even in a specific state. Similarly, it is a configuration in which a pre-configured data is used for a plurality of games to produce an effect, and in the specific state, as in the AT state, the specific effect is when the effect during the specific state is performed. However, by displaying the navigation image in the second notification area C, it is possible to perform the effect during the specific state and the specific effect independently in the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51. Even if a specific production is performed when the production during the state is performed, it is not necessary to interrupt the production during the specific state or to reconfigure the data for performing the production during the specific state. It is possible to produce an effect during a specific state using a single data. In the specific effect, a navigation image can be displayed using common data in both the AT state and the specific state.

  In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the combination of symbols constituting the winning combination in the internal lottery result stops on the winning line LN, and the winning combination of the winning combination is generated. A plurality of types of combinations are included, and in the plurality of types of combinations, at least one component symbol constituting a combination of symbols of the combination is obtained by operating the corresponding stop switch in a special operation mode. A predetermined combination which is a special symbol that can be stopped on the winning line LN is included, and the main control unit 41 is applicable when a predetermined combination including the special symbol as a constituent symbol is won in the internal lottery. When the stop switch to be operated is operated in a special operation mode, the special symbol is stopped on the winning line LN, and the corresponding stop switch is operated in a different operation mode from the special operation mode. When it is made, the special symbol on the reel winning line LN corresponding to the stop switch is different from the special symbol, and the stop switch is operated while the predetermined symbol in the drawing range is stopped. For reels other than reels, reel control is performed on the winning line LN so as to stop special symbols (including similar symbols). On the other hand, when it is specified that a predetermined combination including a special symbol as a constituent symbol is determined in the internal lottery based on the internal winning command, the sub-control unit 91 at the start of the game Winning suggestion direction that suggests the possibility that the role of was won.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 13, in the internal lottery, for example, the combination of constituent symbols is “cherry-any-any” (any indicates any symbol), and left as a special symbol. In the case where a cherry including the reel configuration symbol “cherry” is won as a predetermined combination, the sub-control unit 91 is configured to start rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R when the main control unit 41 starts the game. As the winning suggestion effect, a red effect using a red image is performed, and it is suggested that a predetermined role including a red symbol (in this embodiment, red 7, cherry) is won (FIG. 13A). reference).

  As shown in FIG. 13B, after that, as a special operation mode, when the stop switch 8L corresponding to the left reel is operated at a timing at which the cherry symbol can be drawn into the winning line LN, The main control unit 41 controls the left reel to stop on the winning line LN so as to stop the cherry symbol as a special symbol. After the symbols of the cherry as a predetermined combination are stopped on the winning line LN of the left reel, the remaining middle and right reels are symbols that constitute the cherry when the stop switches 8C and 8R are performed. The symbols within the pull-in range (in this embodiment, “any” (any indicates that any symbol may be used)) are stopped according to the timing when the stop switch is operated.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 13C, as an operation mode different from the special operation mode, the stop switch 8L of the left reel is operated at a timing at which it is impossible to draw the cherry symbol into the winning line LN. In this case, the main control unit 41 has a symbol different from the cherry which is a special symbol on the winning line LN, and stops a predetermined symbol within the pull-in range (in this embodiment, a bell symbol). Stop and control the left reel.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 13D, when the stop switch 8C corresponding to the middle reel is operated, the timing of the operation can draw the cherry symbol on the winning line of the middle reel. When the timing is reached, the middle reel is controlled to stop so that the cherry symbol as a special symbol is stopped on the winning line. In addition, as shown in FIG. 13E, when the timing of the operation is different from the timing at which the cherry symbol can be drawn on the winning line of the middle reel, the symbol is similar to the cherry. Yes, the middle reel is controlled to stop so that the red 7 symbol within the drawing range that can be drawn on the winning line is stopped on the winning line LN. In this embodiment, the red 7 symbol and the cherry symbol are both similar in that the main mode is red.

  After the special symbols (including similar symbols) constituting the predetermined combination are stopped on the winning line LN of the middle reel, the remaining right reel is configured as a cherry when the stop switch 8R is performed. A symbol that is a symbol and within the pull-in range (in this embodiment, “any” (any indicates that any symbol may be used)) is stopped according to the timing when the stop switch is operated (not shown).

  In this way, the main control unit 41 of the present embodiment, for example, has a combination of configuration symbols of “cherry-any-any” (any indicates that any symbol may be used) in the internal lottery. If the cherry including the left reel configuration symbol “Cherry” is won as a predetermined role, at least regardless of whether or not the stop operation is a stop mode capable of stopping the special symbol on the winning line LN. Since the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are controlled so as to stop the special symbols on the winning line LN for one reel, the special symbols are stopped on the winning line LN as a stop mode of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R. Therefore, it is possible to prevent erroneous recognition of symbols displayed on the winning line LN. In addition, when the predetermined winning combination is won in the internal lottery, the special symbol is stopped on the winning line LN for at least one reel. If it is specified in a lottery that a specified role that includes a special symbol as a constituent symbol has been won, even if a winning suggestion effect suggesting the possibility that a predetermined role that includes a special symbol as a constituent symbol has been won Since the special symbol is always stopped on the LN, only the symbol that is not stopped on the winning line LN is not suggested in the winning suggestion effect. For this reason, there is no inconsistency between the content of the result of one game for which a symbol not on the winning line LN is a winning determination target and the stop mode of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R.

  In this embodiment, in the internal lottery, for example, the combination of the constituent symbols is “cherry-any-any” (any indicates that any symbol may be used), and the special symbol “ When the cherry including “cherry” is won as a predetermined role and the stop operation is performed in the order of stopping the left middle right reel, the flow of the stop control of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R performed by the main control unit 41 is as follows. As described above, a re-game combination may be applied as the predetermined combination, and the combination that is not missed by the stop operation mode may be used. Even in such a configuration, it is a constituent symbol of a predetermined role, and a special symbol that can be stopped on a predetermined reel by performing a stop operation according to a special operation mode performs a stop operation different from the special operation mode. In such a case, it is possible to prevent misrecognition of symbols displayed on the winning line LN by adopting a configuration that can be stopped on the winning line LN in another reel. Also, even if the special symbol cannot be stopped on a predetermined reel, a winning will occur, so that the interest of the game can be improved.

  In this embodiment, in the internal lottery, for example, the combination of the constituent symbols is “cherry-any-any” (any indicates that any symbol may be used), and the constituent symbol “ When the cherry including “cherry” is won as a predetermined role and the stop operation is performed in the order of stopping the left middle right reel, the flow of the stop control of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R performed by the main control unit 41 is as follows. As described above, the special symbol is a symbol other than the “cherry” symbol, for example, a watermelon or BAR symbol, for example, a watermelon composed of a combination of symbols “watermelon-watermelon-watermelon”, “ BAR, which consists of a combination of “BAR-BAR-BAR” symbols, etc., and the special stop mode is to stop watermelon and BAR on the winning line LN in each reel 2L, 2C, 2R. So it may be configured such that the operation mode.

  The sub-control unit 91 of the present embodiment does not suggest only symbols that are not on the winning line LN in the display result in the winning suggestion effect. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of inconvenience that causes a player to misidentify a symbol that is not on the winning line LN as a result of one game that is a winning determination target.

  The sub-control unit 91 according to the present embodiment executes the winning suggestion effect by displaying a predetermined image (for example, a red image) on the display area 51a of the liquid crystal display 51 that the player is paying attention to. For this reason, it is possible to more reliably prevent the occurrence of inconvenience that misidentifies the player.

  The sub-control unit 91 of the present embodiment performs the winning suggestion effect without changing it in the same manner until the end of the game after starting the game. For this reason, since the player does not think that the winning suggestion effect suggests the result of the game, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of inconvenience that misidentifies the result of the game.

  It should be noted that the main control unit 41 of this embodiment controls the AT state for notifying the stop operation mode advantageous to the player as the control state related to the AT, and after returning to the AT state again after the end of the AT state. Although it is a configuration that can be controlled to a plurality of control states including a specific state in which a pull-back lottery to determine whether or not, the main control unit 41 further includes a plurality of different winning probabilities for re-game players. The structure which can be controlled to a game state may be sufficient. As such a configuration, for example, it is possible to control the first gaming state as a gaming state and a gaming state in which the winning probability of the re-gamer is higher than usual than the first gaming state, and the AT state. It is possible to control to both the first gaming state, to control to both the AT state and the second gaming state, and in this state to control to both the AT state and the second gaming state, When a special re-game player who can only win is won, a configuration that gives a privilege advantageous to the player may be used.

  In such a configuration, during the period in which the control is performed in both the AT state and the second gaming state, the operation is performed in accordance with the notified push order, thereby controlling both the AT state and the second gaming state. While it is possible to avoid that the end condition of the period is satisfied, if the player operates in a pushing order different from the notified pushing order, both the AT state and the second gaming state are set. If the second gaming state is terminated even when the control period termination condition is not satisfied, not only the second gaming state is terminated but also the second gaming state is terminated. Since the re-players are not eligible for the lottery and can no longer win, the opportunity to be given a privilege that is advantageous to the player will be lost, and the disadvantage to the player may be significantly increased. But That.

  On the other hand, for example, the main control unit 41 has the same probability of winning a predetermined small combination, but the first gaming state and the second gaming state having different probabilities of winning a specific re-playing combination. To control a plurality of gaming states including a game, and to perform an internal lottery to determine whether or not to allow winnings for each predetermined combination with a predetermined probability according to the gaming state at the start of the game In the configuration in which the number of AT games can be added as a benefit advantageous to the player when controlling to the AT state as the specific control, and controlling to the AT state as the specific control, the AT state as the specific control And the second gaming state is controlled at the start of the game, the second lottery can be performed again based on the first gaming state, and the AT state control is performed as a specific control. Are you going When controlling to the first gaming state at the start of the game, the number of AT games is added based on the fact that a specific role is won in the internal lottery based on the first gaming state. If the AT state is controlled and the game is controlled to the second gaming state at the start of the game, whether or not a predetermined small role or the like has been won in the internal lottery based on the second gaming state Regardless of the AT state, the second lottery is performed based on the first gaming state, and the number of AT games is increased based on the fact that a specific role is won in the second lottery. Although the control is executed, even if the game state is controlled to a game state other than the first game state, a specific combination is won in the second lottery when the game state is set to the first game state. As a result, the number of AT games will be increased. Regardless of whether the game state is controlled to the first gaming state or the second gaming state, the player's profit greatly changes by making a determination regarding the addition of the AT game as a privilege under the same conditions. Can be prevented.

  In addition, the main control unit 41 controls to a plurality of gaming states including the first gaming state and the second gaming state, performs an internal lottery with a probability corresponding to the gaming state at the start of the game, In a configuration (hereinafter referred to as configuration A) in which a privilege advantageous to the player can be given when the control is performed, for example, the main control unit 41 is in the second gaming state at the start of the game. In such a case, a predetermined small role or the like that does not change the probability determined whether the lottery result of the internal lottery based on the gaming state at the start of the game is in the first gaming state or the second gaming state Regardless of whether or not the game state is the second lottery based on the first game state, the game state at the start of the game is the second game state, the first game state In performing the second lottery based on the previous internal lottery It is not necessary to consider the result, it is possible to reduce the program capacity at the time of performing a second drawing based on the first game condition.

  Further, in the configuration A, for example, when the AT state control is performed as the specific control, the first gaming state regardless of the first gaming state or the second gaming state. It is good also as a structure which performs the 2nd lottery based on this, and adds the number of games of AT based on the fact that the specific combination wins in the said 2nd lottery. Even in such a configuration, the control of the AT state is executed, but when the game state is controlled to the second game state other than the first game state, the game state is changed to the first game state. In this case, the number of AT games is added based on the winning of a specific combination in the second lottery. Therefore, the game state is controlled to the first gaming state or the second gaming state. It is possible to prevent the player's profit from changing greatly by making a determination regarding the addition of the AT game as a privilege under the same conditions.

  Further, for example, in the configuration A, the benefit that is advantageous to the player is to add the number of AT games as a benefit that is advantageous to the player, that is, the period that is controlled to the advantageous state as the privilege that is advantageous to the player. For example, a right that allows the player to shift to an advantageous state that is advantageous to the player (winning a lottery to determine whether or not to generate an advantageous state, (E.g., winning to enter an advantageous state is allowed), right to be notified of an operation mode advantageous to a player, right to be controlled to a gaming state with a high expected value to which a gaming value is given, current gaming state May be a privilege that is directly advantageous to the player, such as the right to be notified of whether or not the gaming state is advantageous to the player, or may be directly advantageous to the player. Bur, for example, such a condition for obtaining the benefits on the Internet, may be indirectly favorable benefits for the player. Further, the length (number of games) of the period controlled to the advantageous state given as a privilege advantageous to the player may vary depending on the result of a predetermined lottery or the like, or the fixed game The average value of the number of games and the number of games that vary depending on the end condition may be used.

  Further, for example, in the configuration A, the first gaming state and the second gaming state may have different probabilities of winning a predetermined re-gamer, and the second game is also in the first gaming state. Even in the state, a configuration may be adopted in which a predetermined re-gamer becomes a lottery target, and the probabilities that the predetermined re-gamer will win are different.

  In addition, for example, the main control unit 41 controls to a plurality of gaming states including a first gaming state and a second gaming state, and performs an internal lottery with a probability corresponding to the gaming state at the start of the game. A configuration capable of giving a privilege advantageous to the player based on the fact that a specific combination is won in the second lottery in which the gaming state is set as the first gaming state when performing the specific control (Hereinafter referred to as “configuration B”), the specific combination is not limited to the re-playing role, but a small role with a medal payout, or a combination of predetermined symbols without paying out a medal or giving a re-playing role, for example, transition It may be a dice or the like.

  In addition, for example, in the configuration B, even if a specific combination is awarded as a combination for winning a prize by performing a stop operation in a predetermined operation mode, a privilege is given based on the fact that the specific combination has won. Well, as such a configuration, for example, the main control unit 41 controls the AT state as the specific control, and the gaming state at the start of the game is the first gaming state, which is based on the first gaming state. A specific combination is won in the internal lottery and a stop operation is performed in a predetermined operation mode, so that a privilege is granted based on the winning of the specific combination, while the gaming state at the start of the game is the second In the gaming state, when a specific winning combination is won in the second lottery based on the first gaming state, when all reels are stopped, the stop operation is performed in a predetermined operation mode. Based on the configuration that grants benefits based on Case also, it is possible to prevent the benefit of the player is changed greatly.

  In addition, for example, in the configuration B, a specific role may be won in the internal lottery or the second lottery, and further, a predetermined condition may be established to give a privilege advantageous to the player. Whether or not to give a privilege advantageous to the player based on the fact that a specific role is won in the internal lottery or the second lottery, or a stop operation is performed in order of stop corresponding to the specific role A lottery to determine whether or not the content of the privilege to be granted, etc., and a combination of granting the privilege won in the lottery, or every time a specific role is won in the internal lottery or the second lottery A configuration may be employed in which a predetermined number of points according to the number of points is given, and a privilege is given by the sum of the points reaching a predetermined number.

  Further, for example, in the configuration B, when the game state is a second game state other than the first game state at the start of the game, the second lottery is performed with the game state as the first game state, In the lottery, as in the internal lottery, it is determined whether or not all the lottery targets including a specific winning combination are won according to the gaming state, and the winning number of the winning combination is determined in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c. The configuration may be set.

  Further, for example, in the configuration B, when the second lottery is performed with the gaming state as the first gaming state, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not only a specific combination is won, and the specific combination is won. In the case where determination information is determined, the winning information that can specify the type of the specific winning combination is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c. It is good also as composition which specifies winning. By setting it as such a structure, the load of the main control part 41 in the case of determination of a specific combination can be reduced.

  In addition, for example, in the configuration B, it is determined whether or not the specific control is performed, and it is determined that the specific control is performed, and the game state is the second game state other than the first game state at the start of the game. In the gaming state, the second lottery may be performed with the gaming state as the first gaming state. By setting it as such a structure, the load of the main control part 41 in the state which is not performing specific control can be reduced.

  Further, for example, in the configuration B, the second game state includes a plurality of game states having different winning probabilities for a specific role to which a privilege is granted (a specific role is won only in one game state). If the gaming state is other than the first gaming state at the start of the game, the main control unit 41 performs the second lottery based on the first gaming state and specifies When the control is performed, it is possible to prevent the player's profit from changing greatly by adopting a configuration in which a privilege is given based on the fact that a specific combination is won in the second lottery.

  Further, for example, in the configuration B, the main control unit 41 acquires the gaming state at the start of the game in the main lottery process, sets the acquired gaming state as a gaming state for internal lottery, and performs the internal lottery process. By executing, it is possible to perform an internal lottery based on the gaming state at the start of the game, and after performing the internal lottery, the first gaming state is set as the gaming state for internal lottery and the internal lottery process By executing the second lottery based on the first gaming state, the lottery result is determined using the internal lottery process common to the internal lottery process and the second lottery process. Therefore, the program capacity when performing the second lottery based on the first gaming state can be reduced.

  Further, for example, in the configuration B, the main control unit 41 performs the second lottery based on the first gaming state after executing the internal lottery processing based on the gaming state at the start of the game in the main lottery processing. After executing the internal lottery process, the lottery result by the internal lottery is backed up to a predetermined area other than the winning number area of the RAM 41c, after executing the internal lottery process. Then, since the process which performs a 2nd lottery is performed, in performing the process which performs a 2nd lottery, it can prevent that the lottery result by an internal lottery is impaired.

  Further, for example, in the configuration B, the main control unit 41 has a gaming state that is the first gaming state at the start of the game, and when a specific combination is won in the internal lottery based on the first gaming state, When a stop operation is performed in a specific operation mode (including operation order and operation timing), control is performed to stop a specific symbol combination on the winning line LN, and the operation is performed in an operation mode other than the specific operation mode. Sometimes when a combination of symbols other than a specific symbol combination is controlled to stop the winning line LN, and the lottery result of the internal lottery becomes a specific role when controlling to the first gaming state When a stop operation is performed in a specific operation mode, a specific symbol combination is stopped in the winning line by LN, and the sub-control unit 91 sets the display on the liquid crystal display 51 as the notification mode 1 for specific control. When it is configured to display an image indicating that it is being performed and that a privilege is granted and to notify the grant of the privilege, and when the lottery result of the internal lottery becomes a specific role in the first gaming state When a stop operation is performed in an operation mode other than the specific operation mode, the display of the liquid crystal display 51 by the sub-control unit 91 is notified as the notification mode 2 in a mode different from the notification mode 1 to notify the grant of the privilege. When the combination of specific symbols is stopped, it is notified that the privilege is given in a different manner, the gaming state at the start of the game is the second gaming state, and the lottery result of the second lottery is specified When the stop operation is performed, the main control unit 41 is configured so that the display of the liquid crystal display 51 by the sub-control unit 91 notifies the provision of the privilege as the notification mode 2. Is the second gaming state When a specific winning combination is won in the second lottery during the control, the game is controlled to the first gaming state, and when a specific winning combination is won in the internal lottery, an operation other than a specific operation mode is performed. When the stop operation is performed in the mode, that is, it is notified that the privilege is granted in the same mode as when the combination of specific symbols cannot be stopped, the second game state is the second It is possible to reduce the uncomfortable feeling given to the player even when a privilege is given by winning a specific combination in the lottery.

  Further, for example, in the configuration B, the main control unit 41 controls the AT state as the specific control, and performs the navigation notification according to the lottery result of the internal lottery based on the game state at the start of the game. If the gaming state is the first gaming state when executing the control of the AT state, the navigation state is notified when a predetermined push order is won in the internal lottery, while the gaming state is In the case of the second gaming state, navigation notification is performed when a predetermined push order is won in the internal lottery, depending on whether the first gaming state or the second gaming state Since the lottery results for which the navigation notification is performed are different, it is possible to recognize whether the current gaming state is the first gaming state or the second gaming state. Moreover, it is good also as a structure by which the navigation notification of a different aspect is performed with respect to the same alerting | reporting object according to the 1st gaming state or the 2nd gaming state, and even in such a structure, the present gaming state is Whether the game state is the first game state or the second game state can be recognized.

  Further, for example, the main control unit 41 has a plurality of games including a first gaming state and a second gaming state that have the same probability of winning a predetermined small role but have different probabilities of winning a special role. To control the state, to perform an internal lottery to determine whether or not to allow winning in each of the predetermined combinations with a predetermined probability according to the game state at the start of the game, AT as a specific control In the first gaming state when it is controlled to the AT state as the specific control and is controlled to the first gaming state or the second gaming state at the start of the game. If the second lottery can be performed again based on the AT state control as the specific control and the first gaming state is controlled at the start of the game, the first gaming state Special role won in the second lottery based on The specific control is terminated based on the fact that the AT state control is performed as the specific control, and the control is performed in the second gaming state at the start of the game. Since the second lottery is performed and the specific control is terminated based on the fact that a special role is won in the second lottery, the AT state control is executed, but the first gaming state is a special role Even if it is controlled to the second gaming state where the probability of winning is different, the special winning combination is determined by the probability in the first gaming state by the second lottery, Since the specific control is terminated based on the winning of the winning combination, the player's profit greatly changes depending on whether it is controlled to the first gaming state or the second gaming state. Can be prevented.

  In addition, for example, the main control unit 41 controls to a plurality of gaming states including a first gaming state and a second gaming state, and performs an internal lottery with a probability corresponding to the gaming state at the start of the game. The specific control is performed based on the fact that the special combination is won based on the fact that the special combination is won in the second lottery in which the gaming state is set as the first gaming state when the control is controlled to the specific control. In the configuration to be ended (hereinafter referred to as configuration C), the main control unit 41 controls the AT state as the specific control, and controls to the first gaming state at the start of the game. Without performing the second lottery again based on the gaming state of 1, the specific control is terminated based on the fact that a special role is won in the internal lottery based on the first gaming state at the start of the game, and the specific control As the AT state control And when the game is controlled to the second gaming state at the start of the game, the second lottery is performed again based on the first gaming state, and a special role is won in the second lottery. The specific control may be terminated based on the above. Even in such a configuration, the control of the AT state is executed, but when the game state is controlled to the second game state other than the first game state, the game state is changed to the first game state. Since the specific control is ended based on the fact that a special combination is won in the second lottery in the case of being played, whether it is controlled to the first gaming state or the second gaming state Regardless, the specific control can be terminated under the same conditions, and it is possible to prevent the period of the specific control from fluctuating and greatly changing the player's profit.

  Further, for example, in the configuration C, the main control unit 41 draws a predetermined re-game combination as a special combination in the first game state, while the predetermined game combination is selected in the second game state. By not redrawing the re-playing role as a lottery target, the first gaming state and the second gaming state may be configured as a gaming state having different probabilities that a predetermined re-playing role will be won as a special role, The first gaming state and the second gaming state may be configured so that the probability of winning a predetermined re-playing role is different, and is determined as a special role in both the first gaming state and the second gaming state. It is also possible to adopt a configuration in which the re-game players are subject to lottery and the probabilities that the predetermined re-game players will win are different.

  Further, for example, in the configuration C, the main control unit 41 is configured to end the specific control based on the fact that the special combination is won in the second lottery, and the special combination is not limited to the re-playing combination, It is also possible to adopt a configuration in which a small combination accompanied with a payout or a combination of predetermined symbols not accompanied by a medal payout or re-playing game combination, for example, a transitional outcome.

  Further, for example, in the configuration C, the main control unit 41 controls the AT state as the specific control, and sets the gaming state as the special combination in the internal lottery or the second lottery based on the first gaming state. A configuration in which the AT state as the specific control is ended or a special combination is stopped according to a predetermined operation mode by winning a predetermined combination that can be shifted from the gaming state to another gaming state. As a winning combination, the AT state may be terminated based on the winning of a special role. As such a configuration, the main control unit 41 is controlled to the AT state, and the game is started. The game state is a first game state, a special role is won in an internal lottery based on the winning probability of the first game state, and a stop operation is performed in a predetermined operation mode. That won On the other hand, when the game state at the start of the game is the second game state and the special state is won in the second lottery based on the winning probability of the first game state, When all reels are stopped, the player's profit is prevented from changing significantly even when the AT state is terminated based on the stop operation being performed in a predetermined operation mode. it can.

  Further, for example, in the configuration C, the main control unit 41 performs the second lottery with the gaming state as the first gaming state when the gaming state is the second gaming state other than the first gaming state at the start of the game. In the second lottery, in the same way as the internal lottery, it is determined whether or not all the lottery target roles including the special role are won according to the gaming state, and the winning number of the winning combination is determined. May be configured in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c, and the main control unit 41 determines whether or not only a special combination is won when the second lottery is performed with the gaming state being RT2, and the special combination is determined. When winning is determined for, the winning information for specifying the type of the special role won is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c, and in the AT state control, the special winning of the special role is determined based on the winning information. Special It may be configured to be. By setting it as such a structure, the load of the main control part 41 at the time of determination of a special combination can be reduced.

  Further, for example, in the configuration C, the main control unit 41 has a second gaming state other than the first gaming state at the start of the game regardless of whether or not the main lottery-related process is controlled to the AT state. In the gaming state, the game state may be the first gaming state and a second lottery may be performed to determine whether or not a special combination has been won, and whether or not the AT state is controlled. When the game state is determined to be controlled to the AT state and the gaming state is the second gaming state other than the first gaming state at the start of the game, the gaming state is set to the first gaming state. It is good also as a structure which performs a 2nd lottery as a state. With such a configuration, it is possible to reduce the load on the main control unit 41 in a state where the control is not performed in the AT state.

  Further, for example, in the configuration C, the main control unit 41 includes a configuration in which the second gaming state includes a plurality of gaming states having different winning probabilities of special roles that will end the specific control (in one gaming state). Main control unit 41, when the game state is other than the first game state at the start of the game, the main control unit 41 determines the first game state based on the first game state. When performing a lottery and performing a specific control, the player's profit changes greatly by adopting a configuration in which the specific control is terminated based on the fact that a special role is won in the second lottery. Can be prevented.

  Further, for example, in the configuration C, the first gaming state and the second gaming state have the same probability that a predetermined small role or the like is won, and the main control unit 41 sets the gaming state at the start of the game. Regardless of whether or not a predetermined winning combination is won in the internal lottery based on the first game state, the second lottery is performed again based on the first game state, By determining whether or not a lottery special role has been won with a probability according to the gaming state, in performing the second lottery based on the first gaming state in the second gaming state, Since it is not necessary to consider the lottery result of the internal lottery based on the gaming state, the program capacity when performing the second lottery can be reduced.

  Further, for example, in the configuration C, the main control unit 41 can control the AT state as the specific control, the gaming state is the first gaming state at the start of the game, and the first gaming state is set. When a special combination is won in the internal lottery based on the control, the combination of symbols of the special combination is controlled to stop on the winning line LN when the stop operation is performed, and the AT state end notification is made by the sub-control unit 91 The effect is executed and the effect mode is set as the end notification mode, and an image indicating that the specific control is ended is displayed to notify the end of the specific control, while the game state is the second game state at the start of the game. Yes, when the internal lottery is performed again with the gaming state as the first gaming state and a special combination is won, when the stop operation is performed, the sub-control unit 91 performs an AT state end notification effect. When the mode is set as the end notification mode, an image indicating that the specific control is ended is displayed to notify the end of the specific control, so that the first gaming state is controlled. When a special combination is won in the second lottery based on the gaming state, the first gaming state is controlled, and when the special combination is won in the internal lottery, a stop operation is performed, that is, Since it is informed that the specific control is ended in a common end notification mode when the special symbol combination is stopped, the lottery result of the second lottery based on the first gaming state is special in the second gaming state. Even when the specific control is ended due to the important role, the discomfort given to the player can be reduced.

  Further, for example, in the configuration C, the main control unit 41, in the internal lottery, wins the special combination as a special re-playing combination that is a trigger for ending the AT state as the specific control. In such a case, the special winning combination may be always won, and as the special winning combination, the first closing winning combination that suggests the end of the AT state and the first closing winning combination cannot be awarded. And a second ending combination that can be won when the stop operation is performed in the first game state, and in the first gaming state, the first ending combination and the second ending combination as a special combination are simultaneously When the special result to win can be won, and when the special result is won by internal lottery, when the stop operation is performed in a special operation mode (timing at which the first finisher can be stopped on the winning line LN) Enter the first terminator When control is performed to stop the line LN and the operation is performed in an operation mode other than the special operation mode (a timing at which the first end combination cannot be stopped on the winning line LN), the second end combination is selected as the winning line LN. When the special result is won by the internal lottery in the first gaming state (RT2) and the stop operation is performed in a special operation mode, the first winning combination is placed on the winning line. In addition to being stopped by the LN, the sub-control unit 91 executes an AT state end notification effect to notify the end of the specific control (AT state) with the effect mode as the end notification mode 1, and the first game When a special result is won by an internal lottery in a state, and a stop operation is performed in an operation mode other than the special operation mode, the sub-control unit 91 executes an AT state end notification effect. By notifying the end of the specific control as the end notification mode 2 that is different from the end notification mode 1 as the effect mode, the specific control ends in a mode different from when the first end combination is stopped. When the special result is won by the second lottery in the second gaming state, when the stop operation is performed, the sub control unit 91 executes the AT state end notification effect to notify the end of the effect mode. Notification that the specific control is completed in the same manner as when the special result is won by the internal lottery in the mode 2, that is, when the first end combination is missed and the second end combination is won. By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to reduce a sense of incongruity given to the player even when the specific control is ended by winning the special result in the second lottery in the second gaming state.
