Description

  The present invention includes a variable display unit capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information each identifiable. After the variable display unit is variably displayed, the display result is obtained by stopping the variable display of the variable display unit. The present invention relates to a slot machine that can derive and win according to the display result.

  A slot machine generally includes a variable display device having a plurality of (usually three) reels on which a plurality of types of symbols as identification information are drawn on the outer periphery, and first, a bet number is determined by a player's BET operation. Set and start rotation with the specified number of bets set, start rotation of the reel, and rotate by operating the stop switch as the derivation operation means provided for each reel Stop. When all reels stop rotating, a winning combination is generated by deriving a predetermined winning symbol combination on the winning line (for example, 7-7-7, hereinafter the symbol combination is also referred to as a display result). To do.

  These winning combinations include special roles with a transition to a bonus state that is advantageous to the player, small roles with the addition of gaming values such as medals, and replays that can be played without using gaming values. There is a replay role with the grant of. In general, these winning combinations can be won on the condition that an internal lottery performed simultaneously with the start operation is won.

  For example, in the slot machine of Patent Document 1, there is one that can be controlled by ART that notifies the pressing order corresponding to the winning combination, and when the number of games that can be controlled by ART becomes “0”, the battle effect is given. It is controlled by the battle state to be executed, and a lottery is performed as to whether or not to return to the ART state by using the acquired ART point in the battle state. If it is determined by the lottery that the ART state is restored, the ART state is restored.

Japanese Patent No. 589264

  However, in the slot machine described in Patent Document 1, since only the lottery for returning to ART is performed in the battle state, the interest in the specific state taking the battle state as an example is sufficiently improved. I couldn't.

  The present invention has been conceived in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a slot machine that can improve interest in a specific state that can be controlled to an advantageous state.

(1) Provided with a variable display unit capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information each capable of being identified,
After displaying the variable display unit in a variable manner, the display result is derived by stopping the variable display of the variable display unit, and in a slot machine capable of generating a prize according to the display result,
Control is made to a specific state (for example, the battle ART shown in FIG. 13) when the end condition is satisfied during the advantageous state (for example, the non-battle ART shown in FIG. 13) (for example, when the 40-game non-battle ART is digested) After that, state control means (for example, the main control unit 41) that can be controlled to the advantageous state again when the return condition is satisfied during the specific state (when winning by the battle effect in the battle ART); ,
Granting means (for example, main control unit 41) capable of granting predetermined rights (for example, attack rights that can be given by the attack right lottery shown in FIGS. 14 and 15B);
A lottery process execution means (for example, a lottery process (for example, a damage lottery shown in FIG. 15A)) relating to the establishment of the return condition by consuming the predetermined right granted by the granting means in the specific state (for example, Main control unit 41),
The state control means can end the control to the specific state when the predetermined right does not exist in the specific state (for example, in a battle ART, as shown in FIG. When the right to attack becomes 0, the control of the battle ART ends and the last battle effect is executed)
The granting means can grant a predetermined right during the advantageous state and the specific state (for example, as shown in FIG. 14 and FIG. 15B, an attack is performed in both battle ART and non-battle ART). The right lottery is executed).

  According to such a configuration, the predetermined right can be given not only in the advantageous state but also in the specific state. Therefore, since the opportunity to be given the predetermined right can be increased, the interest in the specific state can be improved.

(2) In the slot machine of (1),
The lottery process execution means does not execute the lottery process in the unit game to which the predetermined right is granted (for example, as shown in FIG. 15, the winning combination in which the damage lottery is executed and the winning in which the attack right lottery is executed). Different from the role).

  According to such a configuration, it is possible to attract the player's attention to either one of the process for granting a predetermined right and the lottery process for determining whether or not the return condition is satisfied.

(3) In the slot machine of (1) or (2),
A game value providing means (for example, a main control unit 41) for providing a game value (for example, a medal);
The game value grant rate in the specific state is the same as the game value grant rate in the advantageous state (because it is RT2 in both non-battle ART and battle ART). , Medal grant rate is the same),
The game value grant rate in the specific state and the game value grant rate in the advantageous state both exceed 1 (for example, as shown in equation (2), during non-battle ART and battles) The medal grant rate P during ART is 1.28 or more).

  According to such a configuration, in the specific state, since it is the same as the game value grant rate in the advantageous state and exceeds 1, it is possible to increase the net increase in the game value and Rights can also be granted. Therefore, the interest in a specific state can be improved.

[Configuration of slot machine 1]
FIG. 1 is a front view showing the overall structure of the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment. The slot machine 1 includes a housing 1a having an open front surface and a front door 1b pivotally supported on a side end of the housing 1a. A liquid crystal display 51 for displaying predetermined information is provided at the upper center of the front door 1b. The player can visually recognize the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R (hereinafter also referred to as the left reel, the middle reel, and the right reel) that are arranged in parallel inside the housing 1a through the transparent window 3.

  A medal insertion portion 4 into which medals can be inserted is provided at the lower right of the fluoroscopic window 3, and a medal payout exit 9 and speakers 53 and 54 through which medals are paid out are provided at the lower part of the front door 1 b.

  As an example of operation means, the front door 1b has a predetermined number of bets determined according to the gaming state within a credit range stored as a gaming value (medal number) owned by the player. The MAXBET switch 6 operated by the user, the settlement switch 10 operated when the credit and the set bet number are settled and returned, the start switch 7 operated when starting the game, and the rotation of the reels 2L to 2R. Stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R and the like that are operated when stopping are provided.

  Of the three reels 2L, 2C, and 2R that have started to rotate, the reel that stops first is referred to as a first stop reel, and the stop is referred to as a first stop. Similarly, the reel that stops second is called the second stop reel, the stop is called second stop, the reel that stops third is called the third stop reel, and the stop is the third stop. Alternatively, it is called final stop. Of the three reels 2L, 2C and 2R, the first stop of the left reel 2L is the first stop of the left, the first stop of the middle reel 2C is the first stop of the middle, and the right reel 2R is the first stop. This is called right first stop. Further, the left middle right refers to an operation push order in which the middle reel 2C is second stopped after the left reel 2L is first stopped. Left and right middle refers to an operation push order in which the right reel 2R is second stopped after the left reel 2L is first stopped. Middle left and right refers to an operation push order in which the left reel 2L is second stopped after the middle reel 2C is first stopped. The middle right / left refers to an operation push order in which the right reel 2R is second stopped after the middle reel 2C is first stopped. The middle right and left refers to an operation push order in which the left reel 2L is second stopped after the right reel 2R is first stopped. Right middle left means an operation push order in which the second reel 2C is stopped second after the right reel 2R is first stopped, and is also called reverse push.

  The front door 1b is provided with a game display unit 13 for notifying information related to a game as an example of a notification unit. The game display unit 13 includes a credit display 11 that displays the number of medals stored as credits, a game auxiliary display 12 that displays a medal payout number and an error code when an error occurs, and a set bet. 1BETLED14 for informing the number, 2BETLED15, 3BETLED16, insertion request LED17 for informing that the medal can be inserted, start valid LED18 for informing that the game can be started by operating the start switch 7, start switch Waiting LED 19 for notifying that the weight is in a state of waiting for the start of rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R since a certain period of time has not elapsed since the start of the previous game, after the replay winning Replay to inform you that you are in a replay game LED20 is provided in. Hereinafter, the start switch operation (that is, the operation of rotating the three reels) in a state where the betting number is set appropriately is referred to as a lever-on operation.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a symbol arrangement of each reel. As shown in FIG. 2, on the outer periphery of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R, "white 7a" (for example, the design of the area number 16 of the left reel 2L) and "white 7b" (for example, the area of the left reel 2L) No. 19 symbol), “White 7c” (for example, the symbol of area number 3 on the left reel 2L), “Watermelon a” (for example, the symbol of area number 15 on the left reel 2L), “Watermelon b” (for example, left (Design of area number 1 on reel 2L), "cherry" (eg, design of area number 2 on left reel 2L), "bell a" (eg, design of area number 21 on left reel 2L), "bell b" ( For example, the symbol of the area number 18 of the left reel 2L), “lip a” (for example, the pattern of the area number 20 of the left reel 2L), and “lip b” (for example, the pattern of the area number 8 of the left reel 2L) Identifiable multiple Symbol of the kind is depicted in a predetermined order, one by 21, respectively.

  “White 7b” and “White 7c” are both common in that they are based on the design of “White 7a”, and “White 7b” has a vertical line at the upper left corner, and “White 7c” is different in that a line is added in the horizontal direction at the bottom. For this reason, although “white 7a” to “white 7c” are symbols of different types, they have similar external shapes, and are collectively referred to as “white 7”. “Watermelon b” is common in that it is based on the design of “watermelon a”, and is different in that a line is added in the horizontal direction at the top. For this reason, “watermelon a” and “watermelon b” have different types of symbols, but since the external shapes are similar, they are collectively referred to as watermelon. “Bell b” is common in that it is based on the design of “Bell a”, and the color of the sphere portion of the tongue is different in black. For this reason, “Bell a” and “Bell b” are different types of symbols, but since the external shapes are similar, they are collectively referred to as bells. “Lip b” is common in that it is based on the design of “Lip a”, and is different in that an underline is added to the character “REPLAY”. For this reason, “Lip a” and “Lip b” are different types of symbols, but since the external shapes are similar, they are collectively referred to as “lip”.

  The symbols drawn on the outer peripheries of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are displayed in upper, middle, and lower three stages in the see-through window 3 provided in the approximate center of the reel panel of the front door 1b. The number of reels is not limited to three, and may be one or two or more. Moreover, although the variable display part has shown the example comprised by the physical reel, you may be comprised by image display apparatuses, such as a liquid crystal display.

  When playing a game in the slot machine 1, first, a predetermined number of bets (for example, 3) are set by inserting medals into the medal insertion unit 4 or operating the MAXBET switch 6. As a result, the winning line LN becomes valid, the operation to the start switch 7 becomes valid, and the game can be started. If medals are inserted with the bet number set, the amount is added to the credit.

  The winning line is a line for determining whether a combination of symbols displayed on the see-through windows 3 of the reels 2L to 2R is a winning symbol combination. In the present embodiment, an example in which only one winning line LN is provided will be described. However, a plurality of winning lines may be provided. In addition, invalid lines LM1 to LM4 are provided to make it easy to recognize that the combination of symbols constituting the winning line is aligned with the winning line LN. The invalid lines LM1 to LM4 are not determined as winning lines, but when a combination of specific winning symbols (so-called disparity) is aligned on the winning line LN, any of the invalid lines LM1 to LM4 has a predetermined symbol. By aligning the combinations, it is easy to recognize that the combinations of symbols constituting a specific prize are aligned on the winning line LN.

  When the start switch 7 is operated in a state where the game can be started, the reels 2L to 2R are rotated to display the symbols variably, and when the stop switches 8L to 8R are operated, the rotation of the corresponding reel is stopped. The three symbols are derived and displayed as display results on the upper, middle, and lower stages of the fluoroscopic window 3. As symbols to be derived and displayed (display results), those that can be selected include symbols that are displayed on the LN when the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated, and symbols that are four frames ahead, A total of 5 symbols. Hereinafter, the pull-in range refers to the number of frames excluding the symbols displayed on the LN.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the white 7 is arranged within 5 frames in each reel. Therefore, white 7 is a symbol that can be derived regardless of the operation timing (a symbol that cannot be missed).

  When a combination of winning symbols stops on the winning line LN and a winning occurs, a predetermined number of medals are given to the player according to the winning and the credit is added or the credit reaches the upper limit (50). In this case, medals are paid out from the medal payout exit 9.

  FIG. 3 is a view showing the internal structure of the slot machine 1. FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a functional configuration example of the slot machine 1. Inside the housing 1, a reel unit 2, a hopper unit 34, a power supply box 100, and the like are provided.

  5 to 7 are diagrams for explaining the names of winning combinations, combinations of symbols of winning combinations, general games, and remarks. FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining a special outcome that is stopped on the winning line LN only when a predetermined small combination is missed. FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the gaming state controlled by the main control unit 41.

  The name column of FIGS. 5 to 7 shows the name of the winning combination, and the symbol combination column shows the combination of symbols in which the winning combination becomes a winning. In the general game column, a game value to be given is shown. In the remarks column of FIG. 7, names based on symbol combinations are shown. The re-games include 8 types of re-games such as promotion lip, fall lip, normal lip, and white 7 lip 1-5. The white 7 lips 1 to 5 are collectively referred to as “white 7 lips”.

  In the description of the symbol combination in this embodiment, “-” indicates “adjacent reel separation”, the left indicates “the symbol of the left reel 2L”, the middle indicates “the symbol of the middle reel 2C”, and the right Indicates the “design of the right reel 2R”. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the normal lip combinations are “lip a-lip a-lip a”, “lip a-lip a-lip b”, “lip a-lip a-watermelon a”, “lip “a-lip a-watermelon b”, “lip a-lip b-lip a”, “lip a-lip b-lip b”, “lip a-lip b-watermelon a”, “lip a-lip b-watermelon” "b", "lip b-lip a-lip a", "lip b-lip a-lip b", "lip b-lip a-watermelon a", "lip b-lip a-watermelon b", "lip b -Lip b-Lip a "," Lip b-Lip b-Lip b "," Lip b-Lip b-Watermelon a ", and" Lip b-Lip b-Watermelon b " means. Further, when a normal lip is won, a re-game is given (the next game can be played without subtracting and updating medal consumption and credits).

  FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a symbol combination of the transition outcome. For the transition, the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4, and the right bells 1 to 4 (see FIG. 10), which are the push order bells, are elected, and the reels other than the reels that are the winning conditions for the middle bell are the first stop And, if the top bell that has been won is missed, it is an outcome that matches the winning line LN.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the gaming state controlled by the main control unit 41. The slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment is controlled to one of RTs corresponding to a time from when the start condition is satisfied to when the end condition is satisfied, among RT0 to RT3 in which replay is won with a predetermined winning probability (FIG. 9). (See the winning combination or the outcome shown along the arrow). The types of replays to be randomly selected are determined for each RT type. For example, when the promotion lip is won while being controlled by RT1, it is controlled by RT2. Further, when the promotion lip or the normal lip is won while being controlled by RT3, the control to RT3 is maintained.

  FIG. 10 and FIG. 11 are diagrams showing combinations of lottery object combinations that are read as lottery object combinations for each gaming state. The lottery target role column indicates the name, and the game status column indicates that the lottery target role is subject to lottery for each RT type, and the winning probability is indicated by the numerical value under the circle. The number of determination values involved is shown, and the reel control indicates the content of the control executed by the main control unit executed in the game in which the lottery object combination is won.

  Further, the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4, and the right bells 1 to 4 are referred to as “push order bells”, and the ascending lips 1 to 5 are also referred to as “push order lips”. The push order bell and push order lip are collectively referred to as “push order”. The push order has a corresponding push order (correct push order). When operated in the pressing order, an advantageous display result advantageous to the player is derived, whereas when operated in a pressing order different from the corresponding pressing order (incorrect answer pressing order), the advantageous display result is disadvantageous. For example, in the game where the uplifting replay 1 is won, when operated in the correct answer pressing order (first left stop), the promotion lip is won, while the pressing order different from the correct answer pressing order ( When operated in the wrong order of pressing, the falling lip is awarded.

  In a game where one of the battle lips 1 to 5 is won, the white 7 lip is won when operated by reverse pressing, while the normal lip is won when operated in a pressing order other than reverse pressing. Further, the advantage for the player is the same when the white 7 lip is won and when the normal lip is won.

[About AT]
The main control unit 41 performs, for example, an AT lottery process in which whether or not to control the assist time (hereinafter referred to as AT) when a predetermined AT lottery condition is satisfied and the number of games controlled by the AT are determined by random lottery. Do. FIG. 12 shows an example of an AT lottery table used in the AT lottery process. In the example of FIG. 12, the AT lottery condition is a condition that is satisfied when a predetermined AT lottery target role (in this embodiment, middle cherry, weak cherry, strong cherry, weak watermelon, and strong watermelon) is won. To do. In the example of FIG. 12, for example, when a weak watermelon is won, the probability of being determined as 0 for the number of AT games to be awarded, the probability of being determined as 50 for the number of AT games to be granted, and the number of AT games to be awarded. The probabilities determined to be 100 are set to 85%, 10%, and 5%, respectively. When a strong watermelon or strong cherry is won, the special AT is controlled.

  When AT is won by AT lottery (when one or more AT games are awarded), the sub-control unit 91 performs an AT notification effect to notify the player of AT winning, and then the main control unit 41 performs AT The AT control process is controlled. In the AT control process, the AT is controlled according to the number of assigned AT games. The main control unit 41 transmits an AT game number command indicating the number of AT games (including 0) determined to be given to the sub-control unit 91 after the AT lottery process ends, and the sub-control unit 91 Can specify the number of AT games determined to be given by receiving and analyzing the AT game number command. In the AT notification process, the number of AT games to be awarded when the AT is won or when the AT is won is notified.

  During AT, the sub-control unit 91 performs an advantageous push order for deriving an advantageous symbol combination when receiving a command transmitted when the push order shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 is won by an internal lottery process. The navigation effect that informs the user is executed. The navigation effects include a navigation effect executed by the main control unit 41 and a navigation effect executed by the sub control unit 91.

  The navigation effect executed by the main control unit 41 uses the means that can be controlled by the main control unit 41 (for example, the game auxiliary display 12) to notify the advantageous pressing order. The game auxiliary display 12 also displays an error code at the time of an error and the number of medals paid out. The main control unit 41 displays information corresponding to the order of advantageous pressing on the game auxiliary display 12. In addition, the navigation effect executed by the sub-control unit 91 is an effect that notifies the liquid crystal display 51 of an advantageous pressing order.

[About special ART]
FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining the special ART. First, the special ART start conditions will be described. When a strong watermelon or strong cherry is won during a non-AT, a transition is made to a special AT. When the special AT is transferred, if the push order replay of the push order is won, a push order (correct push order) for winning the promotion lip is notified. The player can make a transition to RT3 by operating in accordance with the notified pressing order (see FIG. 9). The special ART is started by shifting to RT3 (the special ART transfer condition is satisfied).

  Special ART includes 40 non-battle ARTs and multiple game battle ARTs. When comparing the non-battle ART and the battle ART, both are ART, but the battle effect is executed in the battle ART, whereas the battle effect is not executed in the non-battle ART. In the present embodiment, the number of battle ART games is not determined when the special ART is won. As a modification, the number of battle ART games may be determined when the special ART is won. Further, in FIG. 13, a portion described in a rectangle (for example, non-AT, non-battle ART, etc.) indicates a state controlled by the main control unit 41 and the sub control unit 91, and a portion described in an ellipse (for example, , Specialization zone) shows the lottery executed by the main control unit 41.

  As shown in FIG. 13, in the non-AT (non-ART state), when the special ART transition condition is satisfied, the non-battle ART is started. In the non-battle ART, when 40 games are consumed, the battle ART is controlled. In battle ART, a battle effect is executed. The battle effect is an effect in which a friend character and an enemy character perform a battle. In the battle direction, the ally character attacks the enemy character as many times as the number of possession rights. The attack right is given by, for example, an attack right lottery described with reference to FIG. For example, when the attack right is “2”, the ally character attacks the enemy character twice. In the battle production, the teammate character wins when the HP (hit point) of the enemy character becomes 0 by attacking the enemy character by the number of times corresponding to the number of attack rights owned. On the other hand, when an ally character attacks an enemy character as many times as the number of attack rights owned, but the enemy character's HP is not 0 and the attack right number is 0, Defeat a friendly character. Therefore, the more attack rights, the more advantageous for the player.

  When you win the battle production (when the ally character wins), you return to non-battle ART. On the other hand, if the battle effect is defeated (when the enemy character's HP is not 0 and the attack right is 0), the last battle effect is executed. The last battle effect is executed over 4 games.

  In the last battle direction, a friendly character and an enemy character battle. However, the last battle effect is not performed by consuming the right to attack like the battle effect in the battle ART. This is because the condition for executing the last battle is that the right to attack is zero. Whether or not to win the last battle effect is determined by a random number lottery executed at a predetermined timing among the four games in which the last battle effect is executed. After the random number lottery is executed, the result of the last battle effect is notified at the 4G predetermined timing (for example, at the time of the third stop) of the last battle effect.

  If the ally character wins in the last battle production, it will return to a non-battle ART. As described above, even if the battle ART is defeated, if it is won by the last battle effect, it may be returned to the non-battle ART in a revival manner. Therefore, the player can have a sense of expectation even after the right to attack becomes zero. In the last battle effect, the probability of winning and the probability of losing are respectively determined. For example, the probability of winning and the probability of losing are 30% and 70%, respectively.

  In addition, when defeating the last battle production, a special zone lottery is executed. The special zone lottery is a lottery for determining whether or not to control a special zone. During the specialized zone, a battle effect is not executed (the right to attack is not reduced) as in the case of non-battle ART. When it is determined that the special zone is controlled in the special zone lottery (when the special zone is won), the special zone of 100 games is controlled. Further, when it is determined in the special zone lottery that the special zone is not controlled (when the special zone is not won), it is returned to non-AT. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the number of right to attack is 0 in the battle ART, the player is defeated in the last battle effect, and is not elected in the special zone, it is returned to the non-AT.

  Next, the attack right lottery executed by the main control unit 41 during the non-battle ART and the specialized zone will be described. FIG. 14 shows an example of an attack right lottery table used in the attack right lottery. Hereinafter, the weak watermelon and the strong watermelon are collectively referred to as “watermelon”, and the middle cherry, the weak cherry, and the strong cherry are collectively referred to as “cherry”. In the example of FIG. 14, when a watermelon or a cherry is won during a non-battle ART and a specialized zone, an attack right lottery is executed. In the example of FIG. 14, for example, when a watermelon is won, one attack right is granted with a probability of 50%, and two attack rights are granted with a probability of 50%. As a modification, the attack right lottery table used during non-battle ART may be different from the attack right lottery table used during the specialized zone. For example, the attack right lottery table used during the specialized zone is more advantageous than the attack right lottery table used during the non-battle ART (the expected value of the assigned attack right). May be increased). The assigned attack right is stored in the RAM 41c.

  Next, the battle lottery executed during the battle ART will be described. FIG. 15 shows an example of a lottery table during battle used in the lottery during battle. FIG. 15A is a damage lottery table used in the damage lottery. The damage lottery is a lottery that is determined when any of the battle lips 1 to 5 wins the damage to the enemy character during the battle ART. Damage is a value that reduces the HP of an enemy character. For example, when the damage is determined to be 5 pt (points), the enemy character's HP can be reduced by 5.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 15A, when Battle Lip 1 is won, it is determined to give 1 pt of damage with a probability of 90%, and 3 pt of damage is determined with a probability of 5%. It is determined to give 5 pt of damage with a probability of%. As shown in FIG. 15A, the expected damage value to be determined increases in the order of Battle Lip 1, Battle Lip 3, Battle Lip 2, Battle Lip 4, and Battle Lip 5. Therefore, the advantage for the player is high in the order of Battle Lip 1, Battle Lip 3, Battle Lip 2, Battle Lip 4, and Battle Lip 5.

  FIG. 15B is an attack right lottery table used in the attack right lottery during the battle ART. The attack right lottery is executed when any of watermelon, cherry, and push order bell wins during the battle ART. When these roles are won, the damage lottery is not performed (the enemy character cannot be damaged), but the attack right lottery is executed instead. In the example of FIG. 15B, for example, when a watermelon is won, the probability of being given 0 attack rights (no attack right is given) and the probability of being given 1 attack right are each 50%. It is stipulated that

  In addition, when comparing the advantages of the non-battle ART and the battle ART, both of the navigation effects are executed, but there is a possibility that the battle ART may be controlled to non-AT, while the non-battle ART is non-AT. Not controlled. Therefore, non-battle ART is more advantageous than battle ART. Also, the specialized zone is not controlled to non-AT as in the case of non-battle ART, and the number of games in which the attack right lottery using the attack right lottery table shown in FIG. 14 can be executed is 100 games. Therefore, it is a period in which more attack rights can be accumulated than both non-battle ART and battle ART.

  Next, the medal grant rate P between the non-battle ART and the battle ART will be described. The medal grant rate P is a value obtained by dividing "the total number of medals paid out by winning a prize" by "the number of medals consumed by setting the bet number". Normally, both the non-battle ART and the battle ART are in the state of RT3. In the following description, “winning” of “total number of medals paid out by winning” is limited to “pushing order bell winning”.

  The number of medals consumed by setting the number of bets per game is “3”. Further, the winning probability of the push order bell in one game is 16824/65536. Also, in the case of RT3 (ART), if the push order bell is won, bell 1 or bell 2 wins by executing the navigation effect, so 15 medals are paid out (see FIG. 7). Then, the expected value Q of the number of medals given by pushing-bell winning in one game is expressed by the following formula (1).

Q = 15 × (16824/65536) ≈3.85 (1)
As described above, the expected value Q of the number of medals to be awarded by pushing the bell in one game is about 3.85. Then, the medal grant rate P is expressed by the following equation (2).

P = 3.85 / 3≈1.28 (2)
As described above, when the “winning” of the “total number of medals paid out by winning” is limited to “push order bell winning”, both the non-battle ART and the battle ART are about 1.28. In fact, during ART (RT3), since common bells, cherries, watermelons, and the like can also win, the medal grant rate for non-battle ARTs and battle ARTs is higher than 1.28.

  Thus, in the non-battle ART and the battle ART, the medal grant rate P is the same, and the grant rate P is 1 or more. In the non-battle ART, an attack right lottery is executed while medals are awarded at a rate of 1 or more (see FIG. 14). In the battle ART, medals are awarded at a rate of 1 or more, a battle effect is performed, and an attack right lottery is executed (see FIG. 15B). That is, the right to attack can be granted in both non-battle ARTs and battle ARTs. Therefore, the attack right can be given to the player in both the non-battle ART and the battle ART.

[Relationship between reel from which white 7 is derived and expected damage value]
Next, the relationship between the reel from which white 7 is derived during the battle effect and the expected value of damage will be described. FIG. 16 is a diagram showing the relationship between the reel from which white 7 is derived and the expected value of damage. FIG. 16 is a drawing based on the display result of the white 7 lip in FIGS. 5 and 6 and the description of the table in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 16, the winning combination and the winning combination display result, the expected damage value of the winning combination and the winning combination (see parentheses) to be won when the winning combination is reversed in the winning game are displayed. The order and the ally character displayed in the game next to the game won by the winning combination (the game from which the display result is derived) are determined (see FIG. 17). In the display result column, blanks other than white 7 indicate other symbols. For example, the left reel blank in the display result column of the battle lip 2 winning indicates lip a or lip b (see the combination of symbols of white 7 lip 2 in FIG. 5).

  As shown in FIG. 16, when a white 7 lip 1 in which the white 7 is derived to the right reel wins (when the battle lip 1 is elected), and when a white 7 lip 3 in which the white 7 is derived to the middle reel wins (When the battle lip 3 is won), when the white 7 lip 2 in which the white 7 is derived to the middle reel and the right reel wins (when the battle lip 2 is won), the white 7 is derived to the middle reel and the left reel. When white 7 lip 4 wins (when battle lip 4 wins), when white 7 lip 5 where white 7 is derived to all reels wins (when battle lip 5 wins), in order of damage It is set so that the expected value of damage is high.

  Further, when the white 7 lip is won during the battle effect, the teammate character corresponding to the reel from which the white 7 is derived is displayed (see FIG. 17C). In this embodiment, the right reel corresponds to character A, the middle reel corresponds to character B, and the left reel corresponds to character C. Further, it is assumed that the degree of expectation of damage to the enemy character in the order of character A, character B, and character C is high.

  In the example of FIG. 16, character A is displayed when white 7 lip 1 wins, character A and character B are displayed when white 7 lip 2 wins, and character B when white 7 lip 3 wins. Is displayed, character A and character C are displayed when white 7 lip 4 wins, and character A, character B and character C are displayed when white 7 lip 5 wins.

[Direction screen for battle production]
FIG. 17 is an example of a screen displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 by performing a battle effect in the battle ART. In this embodiment, a battle effect is executed over two games by consuming one attack right. 17A and 17B, the screen displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 is shown in the upper part, and the display state of the reel 3 is shown in the lower part. In addition, the display state of the reel 3 shows only the place of the winning line LN and does not show other lines.

  As shown in FIG. 17A, in the game where one of the battle lips 1 to 5 is won, one attack right is consumed, and the sub-control unit 91 presses the white lip for winning. A navigation effect informing the order (hereinafter referred to as “white 7 Lip Navi effect”) is executed. In the example of FIG. 17, a navigation effect that displays characters such as “Aim by pressing white 7 in reverse!” Is executed. In the example of FIG. 17A, the navigation effect is executed at the time of a lever-on operation that triggers an internal lottery in which one of the battle lips 1 to 5 is won. Further, during the battle ART, the remaining number of attack rights is displayed in a predetermined area (upper right area in the example of FIG. 17). In the example of FIG. 17, the remaining number of attack rights is “2”. When the battle lip is won, the attack right is decreased by 1, and the display of the attack right is also decreased by 1. Moreover, in the example of FIG. 17, the case where the battle lip 2 is won is shown.

  FIG. 17B is an example of a screen displayed when the third stop is performed by reverse pressing and a display result derived. In FIG. 17B, white 7 lip 2 is derived. Also, as shown in FIG. 5, the white 7 lip 2 is a winning combination in which the number of reels from which the white 7 is derived is two. Specifically, the white 7 lip 2 is a winning combination in which the white 7 is led to the right reel and the left reel. On the liquid crystal display 51, characters corresponding to the number of reels from which white 7 is derived are displayed. In the example of FIG. 17, since the number of reels from which white 7 is derived is “2”, characters such as “double attack!” Are displayed. This double attack means that two ally characters attack an enemy character in the next game (see FIG. 17C). When the lever-on operation is executed in a state where the screen of FIG. 17B is displayed (a state where the first game of the battle effect is finished) (when a game of the second game of the battle effect is started), The screen shown in FIG. 17C is displayed. In FIG. 17C and FIG. 17D, description of the reel display result is omitted.

  In the screen of FIG. 17C, characters A and B as friend characters (see FIG. 16), an enemy character, the HP gauge of the enemy character, and characters such as “attack start!” Are displayed. Further, there are a plurality of types of enemy characters, and any of the plurality of types of enemy characters is determined by lottery by the main control unit 41 as an enemy character for battle production. Different types of enemy characters have different HPs. In the present embodiment, there are two types of enemy characters as a plurality of types of characters. The HPs of the two types of enemy characters are 5 points and 10 points, respectively. In order to defeat an enemy character, the enemy character's HP must be set to zero. Therefore, an enemy character having a higher HP can be said to be a stronger enemy character (an enemy character that is difficult to defeat). In this embodiment, when a strong enemy character (enemy character with high HP) is defeated, the advantage is higher than when a weak enemy character (enemy character with low HP) is defeated. For example, when a strong enemy character is defeated, a predetermined number (eg, 1) of attack right is granted, but when a weak enemy character is defeated, the attack right may not be granted.

  In the screen of FIG. 17C, characters A and B are displayed as the friend characters based on the “double attack!” Displayed on the screen of FIG. Attack enemy characters. When the first stop operation is executed in a state where the screen of FIG. 17C is displayed, the screen of FIG. 17D is displayed. On the screen of FIG. 17D, a screen is displayed in which the friendly characters (Character A and Character B) are damaging the enemy characters. In FIG. 17D, a screen giving damage of 5 points is displayed. In addition, a screen on which the HP gauge is reduced by 5 points is displayed.

  Although not shown in particular, a navigation effect (see FIG. 17 (A)) is performed in which a reverse push is performed when another battle lip (one of battle lip 1 and battle lip 3 to 5) is selected. Therefore, in the game where the battle lip is won, the player can win the white 7 lip by operating in the pressing order notified by the navigation effect. In addition, when operated in a push order different from the push order notified in the navigation effect executed when the battle lip is won (that is, push order other than reverse push), the white 7 lip is not won, but the next When the teammate character is displayed in the game (see FIGS. 17C and 17D), the effect of giving damage is executed. In addition, you may make it perform the production which gives damage, without displaying an ally character.

  Although not specifically illustrated, when the number of reels from which the white 7 is derived is 1 (that is, when the white 7 lip 1 or the white 7 lip 3 wins), a character such as “single attack!” Is displayed. When the number of reels from which the white 7 is derived is three (that is, when the white 7 lip 5 is won), a character such as “triple attack!” Is displayed. In addition, even when the white 7 lip 4 wins, since the number of reels from which the white 7 is derived is two, characters such as “double attack!” Are displayed.

  Also, in the battle production, ally character A appears based on derivation of white 7 on the right reel, ally character B appears on the basis of derivation of white 7 on the middle reel, and derivation of white 7 on the left reel. Friend character C appears based on For example, when white 7 lip 1 wins, a character such as “single attack!” Is displayed in FIG. 17B, and thereafter, character A is displayed as a friend character in FIG. 17C. When White 7 Lip 3 wins, a character such as “Single Attack!” Is displayed in FIG. 17B, and thereafter, Character B is displayed as a friend character in FIG. 17C. When White 7 Lip 4 wins, a character such as “Double Attack!” Is displayed in FIG. 17B, and then Character A and Character B are displayed as friendly characters in FIG. 17C. . When White 7 Lip 5 wins, a character such as “Triple Attack!” Is displayed in FIG. 17B, and then in FIG. 17C, characters A, B, and C are used as friendly characters. Is displayed.

  In addition, it has been described that there are two types of enemy characters, and the HPs of both enemy characters are 5 and 10. As shown in FIG. 15, when the battle lip 5 is won, it is always decided to give 10 points of damage. Therefore, even if any enemy character of the two types of enemy characters is selected, the enemy character can always be defeated with one attack right.

  Further, as shown by the mark * in FIG. 14, during the last battle (during 4 games) and during the non-battle ART, even if the battle lip is won, the white 7 lip navigation effect is not executed. The reason why the white 7 Lip Navi effect is not executed during the last battle will be described. The last battle is controlled when the right to attack becomes zero. If the White 7 Lip Navi effect is executed in the game in which the Battle Lip is won during the last battle, the White 7 Lip will be won if operated in the push order notified by the White 7 Lip Navi effect. . Then, even if the right to attack is 0, an unreasonable case that white 7 lip wins. Therefore, in the present embodiment, in order to prevent such an unreasonable occurrence, the white 7 Lip Navi effect is not executed during the last battle.

  Next, the reason why the white 7 Lip Navi effect is not executed during non-battle ART will be described. During the non-battle ART, the battle effect is not executed. If a white 7 Lip Navi effect is executed in a game in which a battle Lip is won during a non-battle ART, the white 7 Lip will win if operated in the push order notified by the White 7 Lip Navi effect. . Then, even if the battle effect is not executed, if the white 7 lip that causes damage in the battle effect wins, the player will be confused. Therefore, in this embodiment, in order to prevent such a confusion, the white 7 Lip Navi effect is not executed during the non-battle ART.

[Effect of this embodiment]
Next, main effects obtained by this embodiment will be described.

  (1) According to the configuration of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 15A and FIG. 16, the damage lottery is executed when any one of the battle lip 1 to the battle lip 5 is won during the battle ART. As a result, the damage that can be given to the enemy character is determined. Also, when the reverse push operation is executed when the battle lip 2 is won, the number of reels from which the white 7 is derived is larger and the expected damage value in the damage lottery is higher than when the battle lip 1 is won. (See FIG. 16). Accordingly, the player's attention can be gathered with respect to the number of reels from which the white 7 is derived, so that the interest of the damage lottery can be improved.

In addition, in other words, the slot machine of this embodiment is
A pre-determining means (for example, an internal lottery) for determining a display result that is allowed to be derived;
Derivation control means (for example, reel control) for performing control for deriving a display result in accordance with a determination result of the prior determination means;
Control is made to a specific state (for example, the battle ART shown in FIG. 13) when the end condition is satisfied during the advantageous state (for example, the non-battle ART shown in FIG. 13) (for example, when the 40-game non-battle ART is digested) After that, state control means (for example, the main control unit 41) that can be controlled to the advantageous state again when the return condition is satisfied during the specific state (when winning by the battle effect in the battle ART); ,
Granting means (for example, main control unit 41) capable of granting predetermined rights (for example, attack rights that can be given by the attack right lottery shown in FIGS. 14 and 15B);
A lottery process execution means (for example, a lottery process (for example, a damage lottery shown in FIG. 15A)) relating to the establishment of the return condition by consuming the predetermined right granted by the granting means in the specific state (for example, Main control unit 41),
The derivation control means is capable of variably displaying the specific identification information on two or more variable display portions of the plurality of variable display portions (for example, as shown in FIG. 2 and the like, white 7 is arranged on each reel). Therefore, when the determination result of the prior determination means is the second determination result (for example, winning the battle lip 2 shown in FIG. 16), the first determination result (for example, the battle lip 1 shown in FIG. 16) It is controllable so that the number of variable display sections from which the specific identification information is derived as a display result is larger than that in the case of winning (for example, when the battle lip 2 is won, the reel from which white 7 is derived) White 7 lip 2 with two is won, while when battle lip 1 is won, white 7 lip 1 with one reel from which white 7 is derived wins)
The lottery process execution means can execute the lottery process when the determination result of the prior determination means is the first determination result and the second determination result (for example, FIG. ) When the battle lip 1 and the battle lip 2 are won as shown in FIG.
The state control means can end the control to the specific state when the predetermined right does not exist in the specific state (for example, in a battle ART, as shown in FIG. When the right to attack becomes 0, the control of the battle ART ends and the last battle effect is executed)
The advantage of the lottery process is higher when the determination result of the prior determination means is the second determination result than when the determination result is the first determination result (for example, FIG. 15A and FIG. 16). As shown in FIG. 3, the damage expectation value in the lottery is larger when the battle lip 2 is won than when the battle lip 1 is won).

  According to such a configuration, when the determination result of the prior determination means is the second determination result, the variable in which the specific identification information is derived as the display result is more variable than when the determination result is the first determination result. The number of display units is large, and lottery processing is advantageous. Therefore, the player's attention can be gathered with respect to the number of variable display units from which the specific identification information is derived as a display result, so that the interest of the lottery process can be improved.

  (2) As shown in FIG. 16, there is one reel from which white 7 is derived in the game won by Battle Lip 1 and the game won by Battle Lip 3. In both games, one reel from which white 7 is derived is different from each other, and the expected value of the damage lottery is also different. In FIG. 16, the game won by Battle Lip 3 has a higher expected value for damage lottery than the game won by Battle Lip 1. Therefore, the player's attention can be gathered with respect to the position of one reel from which the white 7 is derived.

  There are two reels from which white 7 is derived in the game in which Battle Lip 2 is won and in the game in which Battle Lip 4 is won. In both games, the combination of two reels from which white 7 is derived is different from each other, and the expected value of the damage lottery is also different. In FIG. 16, the game in which the battle lip 4 is won has a higher expected value for the damage lottery than the game in which the battle lip 2 is won. Therefore, the player's attention can be gathered for the combination of two reels from which white 7 is derived.

  (3) As shown in FIG. 17 (A), when a battle lip is won, a navigation effect that notifies the pressing order (in this embodiment, reverse pressing) for winning a white 7 lip is executed. Therefore, the player can easily win a white 7 lip.

  (4) As shown by the mark * in FIG. 14, even during the last battle (during 4 games), even if the battle lip is won, the white 7 lip navigation effect is not executed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the irrational that the white 7 lip is won even though the attack right is 0.

  (5) As shown in FIG. 17, when a battle lip is won during a battle ART, a battle effect is executed over two games by consuming one attack right. In the first game of the battle effect, the white 7 lip corresponding to the winning battle lip is won, and in the next game (the second game), the enemy character is notified of the damage. Therefore, it is possible to improve the interest of the two games in which the battle effect is executed.

  (6) In the non-battle ART, the attack right lottery using the attack right lottery table shown in FIG. 14 is executed, and also in the battle ART, the attack right lottery using the attack right lottery table shown in FIG. 15 (B) Is executed. Thus, in this embodiment, since the attack right lottery is executed in both the non-battle ART and the battle ART, the attack right can be granted. Therefore, for example, as compared to a slot machine in which the attack right is not granted in the battle ART but the attack right is granted only in the non-battle ART, the opportunity to be given the attack right can be increased. Can be improved.

In addition, in other words, the slot machine of this embodiment is
Control is made to a specific state (for example, the battle ART shown in FIG. 13) when the end condition is satisfied during the advantageous state (for example, the non-battle ART shown in FIG. 13) (for example, when the 40-game non-battle ART is digested) After that, state control means (for example, the main control unit 41) that can be controlled to the advantageous state again when the return condition is satisfied during the specific state (when winning by the battle effect in the battle ART); ,
Granting means (for example, main control unit 41) capable of granting predetermined rights (for example, attack rights that can be given by the attack right lottery shown in FIGS. 14 and 15B);
A lottery process execution means (for example, a lottery process (for example, a damage lottery shown in FIG. 15A)) relating to the establishment of the return condition by consuming the predetermined right granted by the granting means in the specific state (for example, Main control unit 41),
The state control means can end the control to the specific state when the predetermined right does not exist in the specific state (for example, in a battle ART, as shown in FIG. When the right to attack becomes 0, the control of the battle ART ends and the last battle effect is executed)
The granting means can grant a predetermined right during the advantageous state and the specific state (for example, as shown in FIG. 14 and FIG. 15B, an attack is performed in both battle ART and non-battle ART). The right lottery is executed).

  According to such a configuration, the predetermined right can be given not only in the advantageous state but also in the specific state. Therefore, since the opportunity to be given the predetermined right can be increased, the interest in the specific state can be improved.

  (7) During the battle ART, the damage lottery is executed when the battle lip 1 is won, while the attack right lottery is executed when the watermelon, cherry, and push order bell are won. Thus, both the damage lottery and the attack right lottery are not executed in the same game, and either the damage lottery or the attack right lottery is executed. Therefore, the player's attention can be gathered in either the damage lottery or the attack right lottery.

  (8) As explained in Expression (1) and Expression (2), the medal grant rate is 1 or more for both the non-battle ART and the battle ART. Therefore, in the non-battle ART and the battle ART, it is possible to increase the number of medals and increase the right to attack. In addition, the non-battle ART and the battle ART have the same medal grant rate. Therefore, the processing related to medal grant can be simplified as compared with a slot machine having a different medal grant rate in non-battle ART and battle ART.

  Also, in the battle AT, the battle effect based on the right of attack is executed over two games, so the net increase in the number of medals is increased compared to the slot machine in which the battle effect of one game is executed. be able to.

  (9) Also, in a game in which a battle lip is won during the battle performance, when operated by reverse pressing, a white 7 lip is won. In the next game after the game, as shown in FIG. 16, a teammate character corresponding to the winning white 7 lip (a teammate character corresponding to the white 7 reel derived by winning the white 7 lip) is displayed. . Therefore, the player can recognize the expected degree of damage to the enemy character by the displayed friendly character as well as the reel symbol.

  (10) In the game in which the battle lip is won during the battle effect, the white 7 lip navigation effect (see FIG. 17A) is executed. In addition, when the player operates in a pressing order different from the pressing order notified in the white 7-lip navigation effect due to an erroneous operation of the player, the white 7-lip is not won. For example, in the “slot machine that cannot damage the enemy character when the white 7 lip is not won”, the player who made the erroneous operation feels regret. On the other hand, in the slot machine of the present embodiment, the damage given to the enemy character is determined based on the winning of the battle lip, not the white 7 lip winning. Therefore, even when the operation is performed in a push order different from the push order notified in the white 7 Lip Navi effect, the enemy character can be damaged. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a player who has made an erroneous operation from feeling sorry.

  (11) Also, in the battle effect, one of the two types of enemy characters appears and battles with a friendly character. Of the two types of enemy characters, when a strong enemy character (enemy character with high HP) is defeated, the advantage is higher than when a weak enemy character (enemy character with low HP) is defeated. Therefore, in the battle effect, the player's attention can be gathered even for the enemy characters that appear, so the interest of the battle effect can be improved.

  (12) Further, the battle lip includes battle lip 5 that can surely win against enemy characters. In the game where the battle Lip 5 is won, when the white 7 Lip navigator effect is executed and the reverse push operation informed by the white 7 Lip navigator effect is executed, the white 7 Lip 5 in which the white 7 Lip is aligned on all reels is won. To do. Therefore, when the white 7 lip navigation effect is executed, it is possible to provide the gameability that the player can have a sense of expectation that the white 7 is derived to all the reels.

  (13) Next, the reason why the pressing order for winning the white 7 lip is reversed in the game where the battle lip is won will be described. The slot machine of the present embodiment is not penalized regardless of the pushing order. Therefore, when the player is controlled by RT1, if the player operates other than the forward push, the promoted replay wins and may be controlled by RT3 even though it is not AT. Also, the battle lip is a winning combination that is won only by RT3. Here, generally, the player operates the stop switch by pressing it forward. In the game where the battle lip is won, if the pressing order for winning the white 7 lip is assumed to be forward, the battle effect is not executed when controlled by RT3, although not AT. The white 7 lip may be won, and the white 7 lip may lack premierness. Therefore, in this embodiment, the white 7 lip is won as much as possible even if it is controlled by RT3, even though it is not AT, by reversing the pressing order for winning the white 7 lip. Can be. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the loss of premier white 7 lip.

Second Embodiment
Next, the slot machine of the second embodiment will be described. In the description of the first embodiment, the bonus combination to be shifted to the bonus state is not described. In the second embodiment, a slot machine having the bonus combination will be described. Further, the AT lottery table of the slot machine of the second embodiment is the same as that in FIG. 12, and the special ART transition control shown in FIG. 13 can be executed. Moreover, the battle effect of 1st Embodiment can be performed also during special ART. Further, in the first embodiment, 7 lip 1 to 5 are provided as winning combinations, and battle lips 1 to 5 are provided as winning combinations, while in the second embodiment, bar lips 1 and 2 are provided as winning combinations (see FIG. 20). As a winning combination, battle lips 1 and 2 are provided (see FIG. 25). The symbol that suggests damage to the enemy character is white 7 in the first embodiment, whereas it is a bar in the second embodiment. Further, in the second embodiment, the attack right lottery tables of FIGS. 14 and 15B are used, and only the battle lip 1 and the battle lip 2 of FIG. 15A are defined (battle lips 3 to 5 are omitted). D) A damage lottery table is used.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram showing a reel symbol arrangement according to the second embodiment, and FIGS. 19 and 20 are diagrams showing types of winning combinations, symbol combinations of winning combinations, and the like. BB1 and BB2 shown in FIG. 19 are winning combinations with a transition to an advantageous state of bonus. In the BB1 and BB2 payout number columns, bonus termination conditions to be transferred by winning are shown. Each bonus is ended by paying out more than a predetermined number of medals. For example, a bonus controlled by winning / winning BB1 ends in a game in which the number of medals paid out during the bonus is 351 or more.

  FIG. 21 is a diagram showing a symbol combination and the like of the transition event. The transition outcome shown in FIG. 21 is an outcome that is aligned with the winning line LN when operated in a pushing order (incorrect answer pushing order) different from the corresponding pushing order of the push order bells shown in FIG.

  FIG. 22 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the gaming state controlled by the main control unit 41, and FIG. 23 is a diagram showing an outline of the gaming state and RT. In the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment, RT0 to RT4 in which replay is won with a predetermined winning probability (refer to the numerical value in the replaying role column in the upper diagram of FIG. 23), and the winning probability of the small role is in RT0 to RT4. Among a plurality of types of gaming states including a bonus that improves more than the time, the game state is controlled to one of the corresponding gaming states from when the start condition is satisfied until the end condition is satisfied (shown along the arrow in FIG. 22). Refer to the winning combination or the outcome, see the start condition / end condition column in the upper diagram of FIG. 23).

  When either BB1 or BB2 is won, RT4 (inside the bonus) is controlled regardless of whether AT (including special ART) or non-AT. The winning flag that is set when either BB1 or BB2 wins is carried over until winning of the winning BB occurs. RT4 is continuously controlled from BB winning to BB winning. During RT4, it is lower than during RT0 and RT2, and wins the replay with the same probability as during RT1 and RT3 (see the numerical value in the re-playing role column in the upper diagram of FIG. 23). Note that the replay probability in RT4 is set to a probability that the payout rate does not exceed 1 even if the winning combination can be won without being missed. In other words, the replay probability in RT4 is the total number of medals to be paid out when winning a winning combination without losing the winning combination during RT4. The total number of medals is not exceeded and the probability that the medals will not increase is set. When a BB winning occurs during RT4, the bonus is controlled, and the bonus is ended by paying out more than the number of medals described with reference to FIG. 19, and the process is controlled to RT3. The types of replays to be internally drawn are determined for each RT type (circles in the lower diagram of FIG. 23 indicate replays to be drawn).

  Also, when controlled by the BB during an AT, the AT-related rights (for example, the number of AT remaining games, the attack right, etc.) are put on hold. After that, when the controlled BB is finished, the RT 3 is controlled in a state where the right regarding the reserved AT is held.

  24 and 25 are diagrams showing combinations of lottery object combinations that are read out as lottery object combinations for each gaming state. The lottery target role column indicates the name, and the game status column indicates that the lottery target role is subject to lottery for each RT type, and the winning probability is indicated by the numerical value under the circle. The number of judgment values involved is indicated. For example, the bell is a lottery target winning combination in 360/65536 in any state of RT0 to RT3. During RT4, bonus lottery is not performed, but the winning combination of the winning combination that can be won at the same time as the bonus (hereinafter also referred to as simultaneous winning combination) is the same probability as during other RTs. For weak watermelons, an internal lottery is performed with the number of judgment values shown in parentheses.

  During the bonus, for example, the middle bell is set as a lottery target and it is determined to win with an extremely high probability (64000/65536). The middle bell is a role that can generate a prize regardless of the operation timing. For this reason, during the bonus, regardless of the operation timing and the order of pressing, the middle bell win can be generated with a very high probability, and the number of medals can be increased efficiently. For this reason, the bonus is an advantageous state for the player.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 25, battle replay 1 and battle replay 2 are won during RT2 (ART).

  FIG. 26 is a diagram showing combinations of winning combinations included in a lottery target combination. For example, the weak cherry is the lower cherry. The weak watermelon includes a right-down watermelon, an upper watermelon, and a middle watermelon. Therefore, when the weak watermelon is won in the internal lottery, it means that the right-down watermelon, the upper watermelon, and the middle watermelon are won.

  Among the lottery target combinations, bonus 1 to bonus 12 are combinations that can be won by simultaneously reading out a predetermined winning combination such as BB1 or BB2 and weak cherry or bell. Also, as shown in FIG. 24, different numbers of determination values are defined for bonus 1 to bonus 12. For this reason, the bonus 6 or 12 is the advantage for the player, that is, the ratio of BB1 or BB2 actually winning simultaneously when winning the simultaneous winning combination (hereinafter also referred to as reliability). The number of determination values is determined so that the middle cherries are the highest, followed by strong cherries, strong watermelons, weak cherries, and weak watermelons in this order, and the bell (hereinafter also referred to as the middle tier bell) is the lowest.

  27 to 29 are diagrams for explaining reel control when a plurality of winning combinations are simultaneously won. When a winning operation is performed in the pressing order shown in the pressing order column for each winning lottery object, the reel control is performed to stop the winning symbol combination shown in the symbol combination to be stopped on the winning line LN. For example, when the replay GR1 is won, the promotion replay 1 is derived when the pressing order is left middle right, and the normal replay is derived when the pressing order is other than left middle right. Also, for example, when the left bell is elected, if the pushing order is the first left stop, the lower right bell is derived, and if the pushing order is other than the first left stop, the upper bell or the transition start Is derived.

  Further, when the battle lip 1 or the battle lip 2 is won, the bar replay is derived when the pressing order is reverse pressing, and the normal replay is derived when the pressing order is other than reverse pressing.

  Further, when winning the simultaneous winning combination, reel control different from that when not winning the simultaneous winning combination can be performed. For example, when a weak watermelon is won, reel control is performed so that a watermelon that falls to the right or an upper watermelon is prioritized over a middle watermelon, but is pulled to the winning line, while a right watermelon is lowered when a strong watermelon is won. Reel control is performed in which the middle-stage watermelon is given priority over both the watermelon and the upper-stage watermelon to be drawn onto the winning line. When a weak cherry or a strong cherry is won, reel control is performed to draw the lower cherries onto the winning line, and when a middle cherry is selected, reel control is performed to pull the middle cherries onto the winning line. . As a result, it is possible to estimate whether it is cherry or watermelon, weak or strong, or mid-stage cherry from the combination of symbols when the reels 2L to 2R are stopped, and the expectation for bonus winning or AT winning is different. Can be made.

[Relationship between RT state, winning role, and navigation production]
FIG. 30 shows the relationship between the RT state, the winning combination, and the navigation effect. The relationship between the RT state, the winning combination, and the navigation effect will be described with reference to FIG. During RT2 (usually controlled by AT), the navigation effect is not executed in the game where the normal lip is won. This is because the normal lip is a role in which the normal lip wins regardless of the pressing order. This can prevent unnecessary navigation effects from being executed.

  In RT2 and RT4, in a game in which the push order bell is won, a navigation effect that notifies the correct push order is executed. In RT2, the navigation effect that notifies the correct pressing order is executed in the game in which the pressing order lip (replay GR11 to 13) is won. In addition, special lip is not won during RT2. As described above, in FIG. 30, “-” indicates that the winning combination is not won.

  In addition, the navigation effect is not executed in the game in which the normal lip and the special lip are won during RT4 (inside the bonus). This is because the normal lip and the special lip are roles in which the normal lip wins regardless of the pressing order. This can prevent unnecessary navigation effects from being executed.

  Further, the navigation effect when the push order bell in FIG. 30 is won and the navigation effect when the push order lip is won are in the same mode (push order display mode, sound output mode, and LED light emission mode). Executed.

[Production performed when a cherry or watermelon is won]
FIG. 31 is a diagram for explaining an effect executed in a game after a cherry or watermelon is won during a special ART (for example, during a non-battle ART or a battle ART shown in FIG. 13). The effect performed when a cherry or watermelon is won will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 31A is a diagram for explaining the effects executed in the game after cherry and BB are simultaneously won during the special ART and after the watermelon and BB are simultaneously won during the special ART. In addition, when Cherry and BB are simultaneously elected during special ART, and when Watermelon and BB are simultaneously elected during special ART, the right to attack is granted by executing RT right lottery as well as being controlled by RT4. (See FIGS. 14 and 15B).

  As shown in FIG. 31A, a chance effect is executed in a game in which normal replay is won during RT4. The chance effect is an effect that suggests the possibility of the right to attack. The chance effect is an effect of displaying characters such as “CHANCE!”, For example. By executing the chance effect, it is possible to give the player a sense of expectation that the grant of the right to attack has occurred. The chance effect is an effect that is executed with a predetermined probability even when the right to attack is not granted. In this case, the chance effect is a so-called gas effect.

  In addition, the situation in which the chance effect is executed can be said that there is a high possibility that the right to attack is granted, that is, there is a high possibility that a cherry or watermelon is won. Therefore, when the chance effect is executed, it can be said that RT4 is controlled by winning BB, or control to RT2 is maintained without winning BB. In addition, as described in FIG. 30, the navigation effect is not executed when the normal lip is won during RT4. In a game where a normal lip is won, the normal lip wins regardless of the order of pressing.

  As shown in FIG. 31 (a), a chance effect is executed and a navigation effect is executed in the game in which the push order bell is won during RT4. As shown in FIG. 31C, when the special replay is won during RT4, neither the navigation effect nor the attack right granting effect is executed. The attack right granting effect is an effect for notifying that the attack right has been granted. The attack right granting effect is an effect of displaying characters such as “attack right GET!”, For example.

  Next, it is a figure for demonstrating the production | presentation performed by the game after a cherry or watermelon is elected alone (BB is not elected) during special ART. Even if a watermelon or cherry is elected alone during the special ART, the RT state maintains the control to RT2, and the attack right is granted by executing the attack right lottery (see FIG. 14 and FIG. 15B) ).

  As shown in FIG. 31D, a chance effect is executed in a game in which normal replay is won during RT2. Further, as described in FIG. 30, the navigation effect is not executed when the normal lip is won during RT2. As shown in FIG. 31 (o), a chance effect is executed and a navigation effect is executed in a game in which the push order bell is won during RT2. As shown in FIG. 31 (f), when a push order replay is won during RT2, a navigation effect is executed. In the game in which the pushing order replay is won, when the replay (either the fall replay or the normal replay) is won by the third stop, the attack right giving effect is executed. If the player operates according to the pressing order notified in the navigation effect, the normal lip wins and the control to RT2 is maintained.

  Next, a suggestion event that suggests that BB is not won will be described with reference to FIG. In the following, a situation where a cherry or watermelon is won alone and the BB is not won is referred to as a “BB non-winning situation”, and a situation where a cherry or watermelon is simultaneously won with a BB is referred to as a “BB winning situation”.

  When the BB is won and the BB is won, the bonus state is controlled to be advantageous to the player, so the player has a sense of expectation that the BB is won. In the following, a BB non-winning event that has not won BB will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 31 (a) and FIG. 31 (c), the chance effect is executed in the game in which the normal lip is won regardless of whether the BB win situation or the BB non-win situation. The navigation effect is not executed. Regardless of the BB winning situation or the BB non-winning situation, the normal lip is won regardless of the pressing order in the game. Therefore, in a game in which the normal lip is won, the player cannot determine whether the BB winning situation or the BB non-winning situation. Therefore, it can be said that no BB non-winning event has occurred.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 31 (a) and FIG. 31 (e), regardless of whether the BB winning situation or the BB non-winning situation, in the game where the push order bell is won, the chance effect and navigation Production is performed. Regardless of whether the BB winning situation or the BB non-winning situation, the right-down bell or the middle bell is won by operating in the game according to the pressing order notified in the navigation effect ( (See FIG. 29). Therefore, in the game in which the push order bell is won, the player cannot determine whether the BB winning situation or the BB non-winning situation. Therefore, it can be said that no BB non-winning event has occurred.

  Next, FIG. 31C will be described. While the chance effect is executed, the navigation effect is not executed and the replay is won, as shown in FIG. 31A and FIG. 31C, either the BB winning situation or the BB non-winning situation. The player cannot determine whether it is. Therefore, it can be said that no BB non-winning event has occurred.

  Next, FIG. 31 (F) will be described. In the example of FIG. 31 (f), a chance effect and a navigation effect (in the example of FIG. 31 (f), a navigation effect that notifies the right first stop) are executed. A normal replay wins when operated in the pressing order notified in the navigation effect, and a fall replay wins when operated in a pressing order different from the pressing order. In this way, the replay wins in any of the pressing order notified in the navigation effect and when operated in a pressing order different from the pressing order. Replay winning means that the replay is winning. Furthermore, the fact that the replay has been won and the pressing order has been notified does not mean that it is controlled by RT4 but that it is controlled by RT2 (see FIG. 30). Therefore, as shown in FIG. 31 (f), when the navigation effect is executed and the replay is won, the player determines that the BB is not won, that is, the BB non-winning event has occurred. I can say that. The attack right granting effect is executed when the BB non-winning event occurs.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 31 (a) and 31 (o), the game in which the chance effect and the navigation effect are executed is in either the BB winning situation or the BB non-winning situation until the display result is derived. The player cannot determine if there is any. In the game in which the chance effect and the navigation effect are executed, when the bell wins, the player cannot determine whether the BB winning situation or the BB non-winning situation, and when the replay wins, the BB non-winning event (It can be said that the player can determine that a BB non-winning event has occurred). Further, as shown in FIG. 31 (f), when a cherry is won (chance production is executed) and a non-winning event has occurred, an attack right is granted when a replay is won. The effect is executed for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds).

[Effect of this embodiment]
Next, main effects obtained by this embodiment will be described.

  (1) According to the configuration of the present embodiment, when a cherry is won (chance production is executed) and a BB non-winning event occurs (BB is not won), the right to attack is An attack right granting effect for notifying that it has been granted is executed. Further, even if the attack right is granted, this attack right granting effect is not executed when a BB winning event occurs (when BB is won) (see FIG. 31 (c)). ). Therefore, the disappointment when the BB non-winning event occurs (BB is not won) can be reduced by executing the attack right giving effect.

  (2) In addition, the game in which the BB non-winning event occurs is randomly determined from among a plurality of games after the cherry winning game. For example, as shown in FIG. 31 (B), whether or not a BB non-winning event occurs after a game in which Cherry is elected alone (a game in which BB is not won), that is, whether or not a push order replay is won This is randomly determined by the internal lottery of the main control unit 41. Therefore, it is possible to give a sense of tension to the game after the cherry win, that is, the game after the game in which the chance effect is executed.

  (3) Further, as shown in FIG. 31 (f), the BB non-winning event occurs when a replay wins in a game in which a chance effect and a navigation effect are executed. Therefore, the player can recognize that the BB has not been won based on the effect to be executed and the derived display result.

  (4) When an attack right lottery is executed, an attack right giving effect is executed when a BB non-winning event occurs in a game after the game in which the attack right lottery is executed. Therefore, the timing of the attack right lottery can be separated from the timing of executing the attack right granting effect, so the processing load is reduced compared to the slot machine that executes both the attack right lottery and the attack right giving effect. Can be reduced.

  (5) Moreover, in this embodiment, it has the battle lip 1 and the battle lip 2 which were demonstrated in 1st Embodiment. Therefore, the effects described in the first embodiment are also achieved. The slot machine of the first embodiment can also achieve the effects of the second embodiment as long as it has BB as a winning combination.

[Modification]
Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the drawings, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications and applications are possible. Hereinafter, modifications and the like applicable to the present invention will be described. Further, at least two of the technical items described in the present embodiment described above and the technical items described in the following modifications may be implemented in combination, and the technical items described in the above-described embodiment. May be implemented by replacing the technical matters described in the following modified example, or the technical items described in the following modified examples may be further combined with the replacement. .

[About BB Non-Winning Suggestion Events]
The BB non-winning suggestion event of the present embodiment has been described as an event that occurs when a chance effect and a navigation effect are executed and a replay wins. However, the BB non-winning suggestion event is not limited to such an event, and may be another event. For example, the slot machine of this modification can derive a suggestion display result that suggests that BB is not won. The BB non-winning suggestion event may be an event that occurs when the suggestion display result is derived. Here, the suggestion display result may be CB. CB is a challenge bonus and is a game in which all the small roles (Bell 1 to Middle Cherry shown in FIG. 24) are won. As with BB, the winner of the challenge bonus is carried over until winning. The challenge bonus is a combination that is not won when another bonus (for example, BB) is won. The challenge bonus is started when the CB symbol is derived on the winning line in the game where the challenge bonus is won. During the challenge bonus, all small roles win. Further, during the challenge bonus, the drawing range of at least one specific reel among the three reels is one frame or less, and the drawing range of the remaining reels of the three reels is four frames or less.

  As described above, the BB non-winning suggestion event may be an event that occurs when a suggestion display result such as CB is derived. Accordingly, the player may be made to recognize that the BB non-winning suggestion event has occurred only by the display result.

  Further, the BB non-winning suggestion event is not limited to the above, and the BB non-winning suggestion event may be, for example, an event in which a BB non-winning effect executed when the BB is not won is executed. .

[Battle production]
(1) In the present embodiment, the second combination (for example, battle lip 2) whose expected value of the damage lottery is larger than that of the first combination (for example, battle lip 1) in which the damage lottery is executed. However, it has been described that the number of reels from which the white 7 is derived is large. However, the number of whites 7 to be derived may be larger in the second combination than in the first combination. For example, in the first role and the second role, white 7 is not derived to the left reel and the middle reel, while white 7 is derived to the right reel. In the right reel, white 7 is 2 in the second role. However, one white 7 may be derived in the first role. With such a configuration, the player's attention can be gathered with respect to the number of whites 7 to be derived, so that the interest of the game can be improved.

  (2) In this embodiment, the corresponding symbol corresponding to the battle lip (the symbol symbolizing the battle lip, white 7 in the first embodiment and BAR in the second embodiment) is within 5 frames in each reel. It was described as being arranged. That is, in each battle lip, when the operation is performed in the pressing order notified in the navigation effect (correct pressing order), the number of corresponding symbols corresponding to the battle lip is derived regardless of the operation timing. However, in at least one specific reel among the three reels, the corresponding symbols may be arranged 5 or more frames apart. In the case of such a configuration, when the specific reel is operated at a specific timing, the corresponding symbol is derived, and when operated at a timing different from the specific timing, the corresponding symbol is not derived. Reel control is executed. According to such a configuration, it is possible to make the player feel nervous about operating a specific reel at a specific timing.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the damage lottery has been described as being executed in response to the winning of the battle lip. However, the damage lottery may be, for example, a winning of 7 white lips. In this case, for example, when “a configuration in which at least one specific reel among the three reels is arranged so that the corresponding symbols are separated by 5 frames or more” is employed, depending on the operation timing of the specific reel , White 7 Lip may not win. Therefore, according to such a configuration, it is possible to make the player feel nervous about operating the specific reel at a specific timing. In addition, “a configuration in which the corresponding symbols are arranged at least 5 frames apart on at least one specific reel of the three reels” and “a damage lottery is not executed unless a white 7 lip is won (doing damage) If the white 7 lip is not won in the case of adopting the “configuration” that is not possible, the right to attack may not be reduced. According to such a configuration, damage is caused by white 7 lip not winning as compared to “slot machine where white 7 lip cannot win but cannot be attacked, but the right to attack is reduced”. Can reduce the discouragement that cannot be done.

  In addition, when “a configuration in which the corresponding symbols are arranged at least 5 frames apart on at least one specific reel among the three reels” is employed, for example, a timing at which white 7 lip cannot be won When the operation is performed, a display result in which white 7 is not derived at all may be derived. This allows the player to clearly recognize that the white 7 lip has not won.

  In the present embodiment, the corresponding symbol is described as being arranged on each of the three reels. However, for example, the corresponding symbol is arranged on each of the two reels, and the other reels are arranged. It may not be possible.

  (3) In the present embodiment, it has been described that whether or not the player has won the last battle effect is determined by a random number lottery executed at a predetermined timing among the four games in which the last battle effect is executed. However, whether or not the player has won the last battle effect is determined by performing an attack right lottery (see, for example, FIG. 14) between the four games in which the last battle effect is executed. As a result, it is determined that the player has won in the last battle production, and it is determined that the right to attack is not granted by the attack right lottery, so that the player has been defeated in the last battle production. It may be. According to such a configuration, since the type of lottery performed by the main control unit 41 can be reduced, the burden on the main control unit 41 can be reduced.

  (4) In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12, the special AT is controlled regardless of whether a strong cherry is won during non-AT or a strong watermelon is won during non-AT. As explained. That is, in the present embodiment, it has been described that the advantage for the player is the same whether the strong cherry is won during non-AT or the strong watermelon is won during non-AT. However, the advantage for the player may be different when a strong cherry is won during non-AT and when a strong watermelon is won during non-AT. For example, when a strong watermelon is won, it is only controlled to a special AT, but when a strong cherry is won, it is controlled to a special AT and a predetermined privilege may be given. Here, the predetermined privilege is, for example, an attack right. In addition, the number of the attack rights granted may be determined by random number lottery or the like. The player's attention can be attracted to the winning combination during non-AT, that is, the display result based on the corresponding winning combination.

  (5) In the present embodiment, as a condition for returning from the battle AT to the non-battle AT, the condition that is satisfied when the total amount of damage determined by one or more damage lotteries exceeds the enemy character's HP is exemplified. . However, it may be determined whether the condition for returning from the battle AT to the non-battle AT is satisfied by one lottery. According to such a configuration, it is possible to reduce the burden of the lottery process.

  (6) As shown in FIG. 17, the battle effect of this embodiment is executed over two games, and the damage and the number of attacking teammates are determined in the first game, and the damage determined in the second game is suggested. As explained. As a modified example of the battle effect, while determining the number of attacks according to the number of reels from which white 7 is derived in the first game (or the type of winning battle lip) and the damage lottery table according to the number of reels The damage may not be determined. Here, the damage lottery tables include the damage lottery tables 1 to 5 corresponding to the battle lips 1 to 5, respectively. The damage lottery tables 1 to 5 are expected to have a damage lottery table 1, a damage lottery table 3, and a damage lottery table. The lottery table 2, the damage lottery table 4, and the damage lottery table 5 increase in order. In addition, for each of the damage lottery tables 1 to 5, damage is defined according to the winning combination. For example, for a winning combination with a low winning probability (for example, a rare combination such as cherry and watermelon), a lot of damage is caused. It is prescribed to be given.

  In the second game of the battle effect, using the determined damage lottery table, the damage corresponding to the winning combination of the second game is determined as the damage to the enemy character in the second game. For example, when a rare role is won in the second game, a lot of damage can be given to the enemy character in the second game. According to such a configuration, the damage that can be given in the battle effect is related not only to the winning role of the first game of the battle effect but also to the winning role of the second game. In addition, the player's attention can be gathered not only for the winning role in the second game.

  (7) It has been described that the number of battle effect games based on the right of attack 1 of the present embodiment is two games. However, the number of battle effect games based on one attack right may be three or more. In this case, for example, the damage may be determined in the first game in which the battle lip is won, and the determined damage may be executed in the final game of the battle effect. Further, the number of games for the battle effect may be determined by a game number lottery (random number lottery). For example, when the battle lip 1 is won, the damage is determined and the number of battle production games is determined by lottery. Here, in the game number lottery, the number of games is determined so that the greater the damage to be given, the greater the number of battle effect games. When the number of games is determined, an effect giving the determined damage is executed in the final game of the battle effect. According to such a structure, a player's attention can be attracted also with respect to the number of games in which a battle effect is executed.

[About internal lottery]
(1) In the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 25, the special replay has been described as not winning in RT2, but may be won in RT2. Further, although it has been described that the push order replay is not won at RT4, it may be won at RT4. In the case where the push order replay is won at RT4, even if the push order replay is won during RT4, the navigation effect is not executed. Further, in the case where the special replay is won during RT2, when the special replay is won during RT2, the navigation effect may be executed or the navigation effect may not be executed.

  As described above, the push order replay can achieve the same effect as the effect described in the second embodiment even if it is configured to win at RT4.

  (2) In the first embodiment, the winning probabilities of the battle lips 1 to 5 are the same (see FIG. 11), and in the second embodiment, the winning probabilities of the battle lip 1 and the battle lip 2 are the same (see FIG. 25). ) Explained. However, the winning probability of each battle lip may be different. For example, the winning probability may be lowered for a battle lip with a large expected value of bonus lottery. For example, in 1st Embodiment, you may make it make the winning probability of the battle lip 5 the lowest among the battle lips 1-5, and make the winning probability of the battle lip 5 the highest.

[About rights]
In the second embodiment, the “predetermined right regarding the control to the advantageous state” is exemplified as the “attack right consumed to execute the lottery process”. However, the predetermined right is not limited to the attack right, and may be another right. For example, when the advantageous state is AT, the predetermined right may be an AT game.

[About benefits]
As a privilege, an AT game and an attack right are mainly exemplified. Thus, in the present embodiment, the value that directly affects the payout rate of medals and pachinko balls is exemplified. However, in the first embodiment, the privilege may be the number of games to be shifted to an advantageous state, bonus winning, or the like. Further, the privilege may be a value that improves the degree of advantage for the player, and may be a value that does not directly affect the medal payout rate, for example. Specifically, when an AT lottery has a high probability state in which AT is won with a higher probability than usual, execution of a probability suggestion effect to suggest whether or not the current state is a high probability state , Execution of a premier effect together with sound on the liquid crystal display 51 (special character appearance, execution of special bonus effect in the next generated bonus, etc.), execution of a set value suggestion effect to suggest a set value, Collecting a certain number of liquid crystal displays a two-dimensional code that gives points that can be exchanged for services determined at the amusement store where the slot machine 1 is installed, and that can download bonus videos and bonus information on a predetermined website A display or the like may be displayed in the device 51.

  Moreover, although the number of AT games is illustrated as an example of the privilege, the privilege related to the AT is not limited to this. Good. In addition, when the number of times that the navigation effect can be executed is determined and the AT is controlled until the navigation effect is executed for the determined number of times that the navigation effect can be executed, Good. Further, for example, when the upper limit grant amount is determined and the AT is controlled until the assigned game value (medal payout number) reaches the determined upper limit grant amount, the upper limit grant amount may be a privilege. In addition, when the AT is controlled from when the predetermined AT start condition is satisfied until the predetermined AT end condition is satisfied, and if the AT is continued when the AT end condition is satisfied, the continuous lottery is performed. The continuation probability determined to continue in the lottery may be used as a privilege.

[Advantageous state]
In the above-described example, as an advantageous state, a big bonus (BB) or AT, which has a higher probability of winning the small role than the predetermined state, is exemplified as an advantageous state, but in an advantageous state for the player, The present invention is not limited to this, and an example of a slot machine will be described below.

  Advantageous states include, for example, a regular bonus (RB) and replay time (RT) in which a winning probability of a predetermined winning combination is high, a concentrated state of small roles, and a range in which at least one reel can be pulled in than normal. Not only does it change the challenge time (CT), the winning probability of winning prizes, etc., but also changes the winning order for winning the winning prizes in each game. It may be a pseudo bonus that is notified over a period (for example, until 50 games are consumed). In addition, the probability of being controlled to these advantageous states may be a high probability, the probability of being controlled to the freeze state is high, and the number of games such as the number of AT games is high. You may set the advantageous state of a different aspect from the said embodiment, such as the state added and the state where it is easy to increase the number of additional games of AT. In addition, it is indirectly advantageous for the player, such as the condition for obtaining a privilege on the communication line network and the probability of establishing a condition for executing a premium effect (freeze effect, premium effect, etc.). It may be a state where a special privilege or an interest of the game is improved. Further, the allowance determining means for determining whether or not to allow the transition to an advantageous state is not limited to the internal lottery process, and may be a means for determining regardless of the winning combination.

  Further, the advantageous state is given when, for example, in the privilege grant lottery that determines whether or not a privilege is granted, the “probability that a privilege is granted” and “the privilege is given” are determined. At least one of “the value of the privilege (or the expected value of the privilege)” may be higher than the normal state (a state different from the advantageous state). In addition, the advantageous state may be one in which the number of execution opportunities for the privilege grant lottery is larger than that in the normal state. In addition, the advantageous state may be a state where the number of digestion-required games that need to be digested in order to give a privilege is less than a normal state.

  For example, in the case where the privilege is the number of AT games, the advantageous state means that “AT winning probability in AT lottery” and “AT awarded when winning AT in AT lottery” than in the normal state At least one of “the value of the number of games” may be higher than the normal state. Further, the advantageous state may be that the number of AT lottery triggers is larger than that in the normal state. For example, when the AT lottery execution opportunity in the normal state is the first role winning and the second role winning, the AT lottery execution opportunity in the advantageous state is the first role winning and the second role winning. In addition to the above, it is possible to win the third role.

[Other variations]
(1) When the setting key switch 37 is turned on and the power is turned on, the setting value read from the RAM of the main control unit 41 is displayed on the setting value display 24 as a display value, and the reset / setting switch 38 is operated. You may make it transfer to the setting change state in which the change operation of a setting value is possible. In addition, regarding the setting change state, transition to the setting change state may be made on condition that “power ON” + “setting key switch ON” + “front door open detection”. Thereby, an unauthorized setting change in a state where the front door is not opened can be prevented. Once the setting change state is entered, the setting change state is maintained regardless of the open / closed state of the front door until the end condition (setting key switch is turned OFF after setting value is established) is satisfied. You may make it do. As a result, even if the front door is closed during the setting change state, the setting change state is not terminated, so that it is possible to prevent the trouble of shifting to the setting change state again.

  (2) Further, in order to confirm the set value, after the game is over, the setting key switch 37 may be turned on with no bet amount set. When the setting key switch 37 is turned on in such a situation, the setting value read out from the RAM of the main control unit 41 is displayed on the setting value display 24 so that the setting value can be confirmed. Transition. In addition, regarding the setting confirmation state, “setting key switch ON” + “front door opening detection” may be used as a condition to shift to the setting confirmation state. Thereby, unauthorized setting confirmation in the state where the front door is not opened can be prevented. Once the setting confirmation state has been entered, the setting confirmation state is maintained regardless of whether the front door is open or closed until an end condition (setting key switch is turned OFF) for ending the setting confirmation state is satisfied. Also good. Thereby, even if the front door is closed during the setting confirmation state, the setting confirmation state is not terminated, and therefore it is possible to prevent the trouble of shifting to the setting confirmation state again.
