Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine.

  Conventionally, a gaming machine such as a slot machine or a pachinko machine stores and stores a predetermined gaming history from a game after a player performs a predetermined operation (for example, password input operation) on the gaming machine. Providing predetermined information to a communication terminal (for example, mobile phone) possessed by the player by displaying an image relating to predetermined information (for example, a privilege for the player) coded based on the game history Some of them have a game history storage system (see, for example, Patent Document 1). The predetermined information includes an individual game history, and the player can check the game history from the communication terminal after the game is over.

  The player can play this game history, for example, the number of games played by the player on the gaming machine, the number of wins (probability) of the small role, the number of bonus winnings (probability), the advantageous game state (AT state described later, From the number of times (probability) of the transition to the AT state (chance zone state that is easy to transition to the AT state, etc.), the transition timing, etc. In some cases, it was used as information for playing, and that was a motivation for playing games again. In addition, in the advantageous gaming state mentioned here, there is one in which the transition is managed by the number of games so as to determine whether or not to shift to the advantageous gaming state by a predetermined number of games.

JP 2012-192054 A

  However, since the conventional game history storage system is intended to store an individual game history, the player's game history is stored as “0 game” when a predetermined operation is performed by the player. For example, at the start of storage of the game history (at 0 game), for example, the game is actually already counted by another player after N games (for example, after the game machine is turned on). In the case of being played, there will be a difference of N games between the number of games stored in the game history storage system and the number of games actually played.

  Here, for example, a gaming machine that manages the advantageous gaming state by the number of games, specifically, when a predetermined lottery is won, a setting is made so as to shift to the chance zone state for a predetermined period from the 200th game after power-on. In a gaming machine that has been turned on, a predetermined operation is performed at the 100th game after the game machine is turned on, and storage of the game history is started. In the case of transition to the zone state, on the game history storage system (on the game history), transition to the chance zone occurs in the game start 100 game (it appears to transition).

In other words, in such a game history storage system, the player cannot grasp the exact game history (actual number of games transferred) that the game zone has changed to the chance zone state after 200 games.
Therefore, there is a case where the guess of the setting of the gaming machine is lacking in accuracy, and there is a possibility that the motivation for strategically playing the game based on the gaming history is lost.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine capable of providing an accurate game history to a player.

  A first invention is a gaming machine including a game history storage system capable of storing a game history, the game history storage system including the game history after transitioning to a specific state by a predetermined operation of a player, It is possible to provide predetermined information based on the game history from before the transition to the specific state stored regardless of the user's operation.

  In the first invention, for example, the information stored in the information related to the game history after the transition to the specific state (for example, the login state) in the game history storage system by a predetermined operation of the player is stored regardless of the operation of the player By applying at least a part of the information relating to the game history before the state transition (for example, the game history after turning on the power of the gaming machine), the game history of the game played by the player (individual game history) The accuracy of such information can be improved.

  According to a second invention, in the first invention, the game history storage system includes a game history storage means for storing the number of games counted when a predetermined condition is satisfied, and a game generated during the game. Event information storage means for storing the event information in association with the number of games at the time of the event occurrence, and the event information storage means is based on the game history storage system transitioning to the specific state. The start event information related to the history storage start is stored in association with the number of games.

  In the second invention, the event information storage means stores the start time of the game history as a start event and stores it as a game history in association with the number of games at that time, so that the player can Can be recognized, and the transition timing of the gaming state (for example, advantageous gaming state) to be shifted based on the number of games can be accurately grasped.

  In a third aspect based on the second aspect, the number of games managed by the game history storage means is counted from the end of the most recent specific event when a specific event has already been performed among the events. The number of times of one game or the second number of games counted after the game machine is turned on when the specific event is not performed is included.

  In the third invention, the game history storage system, for example, when a specific event (for example, a bonus game) is performed after turning on the gaming machine, the first number of games counted after the end of the most recent bonus, Alternatively, when the bonus game is not performed, the game history is stored in association with the start event with respect to the second game count counted after the game machine is turned on. As a result, the accuracy of the personal game history can be further improved.

  According to the present invention, an accurate game history can be provided to a player.

When the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination is stopped and displayed on the winning determination line L, the winning combination is determined and processing corresponding to winning of the winning combination is executed as described later.

(Internal configuration of slot machine S)
Inside the housing 1, a reel unit 30 (see FIG. 4) including a reel 3L to 3R and a drive source (for example, a stepping motor (not shown)) for rotating the reels 3L to 3R, and an inserted medal A medal storage tank (not shown) for storing, a hopper unit 32 (see FIG. 4) capable of paying out stored medals in units of one unit, and a power supply unit capable of supplying external power to the slot machine S (Not shown), a main board 100 described later, and a sub board 500 (both see FIG. 4) are provided. The main board 100 and the sub board 500 are connected by unidirectional communication capable of transmitting a signal only from the main board 100.

(Main board 100)
Next, control of the slot machine S will be described with reference to FIG.
The main board 100 is a control board that controls the game in an integrated manner, and receives an ON signal (signal when switched to the ON state) from the medal detection switch 9a, the bet switch 10a, the start switch 15a, or the stop switch 16a. Thus, various arithmetic processes for advancing the game are performed, and output operations of the reel unit 30 and the hopper unit 32 are controlled based on the result of the arithmetic process.
The function of the main board 100 is realized when the CPU executes software including a program stored in a predetermined memory.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, the main board 100 includes a game control means 110, a chance zone management means 130, an AT management means 150, a payout control means 160, and a main memory 200. Is done.
Here, the main memory 200 stores a ROM in which the system program in the slot machine S of the present embodiment is stored, and various data such as a flag used in the system program generated in the main board 100 and a calculated value. At the same time, it is constituted by a RAM used as a work area. In the main memory 200, for example, an internal lottery table 201, a main flag storage means 202, a chance zone counter 203, an AT end determination are stored as storage areas for storing or referring to information required for processing by the game control means 110 or the like. A counter 204 or the like is set.

(Game control means 110)
The game control means 110 manages the progress of the game, and operates the start lever 15 and wins determination line based on whether a predetermined number of medals are inserted into the medal insertion slot 9 or a credit medal is bet. A process of enabling L is performed. Subsequently, when the start lever 15 is pressed (start operation), the game is started, the reels 3L to 3R are controlled to rotate, and an internal lottery described later is executed, so that the rotation speeds of the reels 3L to 3R are predetermined. On the condition that the speed has been increased, a process for enabling the operation of the stop buttons 16L to 16R is performed. Subsequently, when the stop buttons 16L to 16R are pressed (stop operation), the stop control table (stored in the main memory 200) so that the reels 3L to 3R stop at the stop positions according to the result of the internal lottery. The stop control is performed with reference to (not shown). Whether or not a symbol combination (hereinafter simply referred to as symbol combination) indicating the winning pattern of the winning combination with reference to a winning determination table (not shown) stored in the main memory 200 is displayed on the winning determination line L. If it is determined that the winning combination has been won based on the display of the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the winning winning combination (game result), the payout control means 160 receives a medal as will be described later. The game is completed by paying out from the medal payout opening 18 to the medal tray 19 (predetermined processing).

  Further, the game control means 110, based on the fact that a replay is won among the roles to be described later, does not insert medals (including credit medals) possessed by the player, and the number of bets or bets in the previous game. The automatic insertion processing (predetermined processing) for automatically inserting the same number of medals is performed. For the big bonus, control is performed to change a gaming state (to shift to another gaming state), which will be described later, when winning or winning.

  The game control means 110 transmits information relating to the result of the above processing relating to internal lottery, gaming state, etc. to the sub-board 500 as a command signal.

  In this specification, the reels 3L to 3R are rotated by pressing the start lever 15, and then the reels 3L to 3R are stopped by pressing the stop buttons 16L to 16R. As a result, the reels 3L to 3R are displayed on the winning determination line L. The process until the processing based on the symbol combination is completed will be described as a unit game, that is, one game (one game, hereinafter the unit is referred to as “G”).

Hereinafter, main processing and control performed by the game control unit 110 will be described in detail.
(Internal lottery)
The game control unit 110 acquires a random number value generated by a random number generation unit (not shown) provided on the main board 100 when the start lever 15 is pressed, and a plurality of internal units provided in the main memory 200 are obtained. With reference to one internal lottery table 201 corresponding to the gaming state, which will be described later, from the lottery table 201, an internal lottery is performed to determine a combination (including a gap) according to the acquired random value.

  As shown in FIG. 5, in the internal lottery table 201 referred to, for a value (for example, 0 to 65535) corresponding to the range of the random number value, a small role, a replay, a big bonus, and these roles, etc. One of the misses that are not won is set to correspond.

  For example, for the small role, for example, “Bell” consisting of a symbol combination mainly composed of bell symbols, “Cherry (specific role)” consisting mainly of a symbol combination in which a cherry symbol is displayed on at least the left reel 3L, mainly watermelon “Watermelon (special role)” consisting of symbol combinations composed of symbols, multiple “special small roles” consisting of symbol combinations of appropriate combinations of each symbol, etc. are set, and each indicates a payout or winning pattern It is set so that the number of symbol combinations may be different. Cherries and watermelons, which are specific roles with relatively low winning probabilities, serve as triggers for transition to advantageous game states such as bonus states, CZ states, and AT states described later, and extra lotteries during AT games. Is set.

  In addition, in the internal lottery table 201, a plurality of kinds of small roles (bells and bells) are won for the same value so that multiple types of small roles (for example, bells and special small roles) are won simultaneously in one internal lottery. A plurality of types of “batting order small roles 1 to 5” are set as the winning areas to which the winning combinations are associated, and depending on the types of the winning batting order small roles, a winning is made according to the pressing order of the stop buttons 16L to 16R. The small roles are set differently (either one of the bell or the special small role wins).

Replays A to D are set as replays.
In the internal lottery table 201, a plurality of types of replays A and a plurality of types of replays (any combination of replays A to D) are simultaneously won by one internal lottery. A plurality of types of “batting order replays 1 to 3” are set as the winning areas associated with the replays, and the replays to be awarded differ depending on the pressing order of the stop buttons 16L to 16R depending on the types of the hitting order replays selected It is set (so that any one of the replays A to D wins).

  In addition, when the big bonus is won, the game shifts to a bonus state (advantageous game state) in which many medals (for example, about 200) can be obtained in one game period (game state) as described later. It is possible.

  Specifically, a plurality of internal lottery tables 201 are set in accordance with game states (normal state, bonus internal state, and bonus state) to be described later, and as shown in FIG. 5, internal lottery tables corresponding to the normal state. The big bonus is set as a lottery target at T1 and T2, but the big bonus is excluded from the lottery in the internal lottery table T3 corresponding to the bonus internal state and the internal lottery table T4 corresponding to the bonus state. Yes.

  Further, the internal lottery tables T1 and T2 may win the batting order small roles 1 to 5, the batting order replays 1 to 3, and the replay A, respectively. 5 and Replay A may each win, and the internal lottery table T4 may be won by a bell (this bell is different from the bell that is won simultaneously in the batting order small role). Also, in the internal lottery tables T1 to T4, respective values are set for each combination so that cherries or watermelons may win each. The internal lottery tables T1 and T2 corresponding to the normal state have different replay lottery states, the internal lottery table T1 corresponds to the replay low probability state, and the internal lottery table T2 corresponds to the replay high probability state. . The replay lottery state will be described together with the description of the game state transition described later.

(Reel control processing)
The game control means 110 performs a reel control process for controlling the rotation and stop of the reels 3L to 3R.
The reel control process is a result of internal lottery of reels 3L to 3R based on reel rotation control for rotating the reels 3L to 3R mainly based on the pressing operation of the start lever 15 and the pressing operation of the stop buttons 16L to 16R. The symbols attached to the reels 3L to 3R are fluctuated and stopped by performing the reel stop control for stopping in a manner according to the above.

  In the slot machine S of the present embodiment, the game control means 110 performs the reel stop control as appropriate when any of the batting order small plays 1 to 5 and the batting order replays 1 to 3 is won, so that the stop buttons 16L to 16R are controlled. In accordance with the pressing order, in other words, according to the stop operation order of the reels 3L to 3R, the stop position of the reel (design) is determined and the winning combination is controlled to be different.

Here, the correct answer pressing order and the incorrect answer pressing order are set in advance in the batting order small combinations 1 to 5, respectively. When the batting order small combination is won in the internal lottery, the stop buttons 16L to 16R are displayed in the correct pressing order. Is pressed, the reels 3L to 3R are controlled so that the bell wins regardless of the timing of pressing the stop buttons 16L to 16R, and the stop buttons 16L to 16R are pressed in the incorrect pressing order. In this case, the reels 3L to 3R are controlled to stop so that the special small combination wins regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons 16L to 16R.
Note that because the bell has a higher payout than the special small role, the player operates more in the correct push order when winning the batting order small role than in the incorrect push order. It can be acquired. On the other hand, when the special small role is elected, when the replay lottery state to be described later is in the replay high probability state, it falls to the replay low probability state.

  On the other hand, in the batting order replays 1 to 3, the correct pressing order or the like like the batting order small role is not set, but the replaying does not affect the change in the game state according to the pressing order of the stop buttons 16L to 16R. A and B, the replay lottery state described later falls from the replay high probability state to the replay low probability state, the replay C that triggers the end of the CZ state described later, and also from the replay low probability state to the replay high probability state The reels 3L to 3R are controlled to stop so that the replay D that becomes the opportunity to be promoted wins regardless of the timing of pressing the stop buttons 16L to 16R.

(Game state transition control)
The game control means 110 performs game state transition control for shifting (starting and ending) the game state between the normal state, the bonus internal state, and the bonus state based on the establishment of a predetermined transition condition.

  As shown in FIG. 6, in the game state transition control, the normal state is set to the initial state, and in the normal state, the big bonus is won by the internal lottery, and the bonus internal state is triggered. The state is shifted to a state, and the bonus state is terminated when the total number of medals paid out exceeds a predetermined number (for example, 200) in the bonus state, and control is performed to shift to the normal state.

Here, in each gaming state, the replay lottery state is set in each of the corresponding internal lottery tables T1 to T4 so that the winning probability of the replay is different.
The normal state is set so as to be able to shift between a low replay probability state (replay winning probability is 1 / 7.3, for example) and a replay high probability state (replay winning probability is 1 / 1.5, for example). Yes. The bonus internal state is set to the replay probability state (replay winning probability is 1 / 3.7, for example), and the bonus state is set to the no replay lottery state (replay is excluded from the lottery).

  The game control means 110 sets the replay lottery state to the replay high probability state in response to the replay D winning in the replay low probability state in the normal state, and wins the replay C winning or special small role in the replay high probability state. As a trigger, the replay low probability state is set.

  The game control means 110 sets or clears the flag corresponding to the game state or the replay lottery state in the main flag storage means 202 set in the main memory 200, so that each game state or each replay lottery state. Control is performed so that the internal lottery tables T to T4 that are referred to in each gaming state are set.

(Chance zone management means 130)
The chance zone management means (hereinafter also referred to as CZ management means) 130 manages a chance zone state (hereinafter referred to as CZ state) in which the winning probability of AT lottery described later is improved, and the number of games is a predetermined number of times (for example, a slot machine) Chance zone lottery for determining whether to shift to the CZ state (winning) or not (non-winning) upon reaching 200G, 400G, 800G, 1000G, etc. (Hereinafter referred to as CZ lottery) is performed with reference to a CZ lottery table (not shown) stored in the main memory 200. In the present embodiment, the CZ lottery is executed when either of the conditions at the time of turning on the power of the slot machine S or the end of the bonus is satisfied, but is executed when the number of games reaches a predetermined number. Also good. In any case, the beginning of the CZ state is managed by the number of games.

  The CZ management means 130 shifts (sets) the production state to the CZ state based on the winning of the CZ lottery, sets “50”, for example, to the chance zone counter 203, and every time a game is performed in the CZ state, the chance zone A process of decrementing the count value of the counter 203 is performed. When the count value of the chance zone counter 203 becomes “0” or the end lottery based on the winning of the replay C is won, the CZ management unit 130 ends the CZ state and enters the gaming state before the transition to the CZ state. Control to return.

  In this CZ state, the winning probability of AT lottery based on the winning of a specific role cherry or watermelon, for example, is doubled, and it is set to perform AT lottery with other roles (bell or replay), This is an advantageous gaming state that is advantageous to a player who is more likely to shift to the AT state than the normal state (non-CZ state).

  The CZ management unit 130 switches between the CZ state and the non-CZ state (start and end of the CZ state) by setting and clearing the CZ flag with respect to the main flag storage unit 202 of the main memory 200.

(AT management means 150)
The AT management means 150 performs management related to the AT state and games in the AT state (hereinafter also referred to as AT games).

  Here, as shown in FIG. 6, since the AT state is a gaming state that can be shifted in the normal state, the same internal lottery table T1 or internal lottery table T2 as in the normal state is referred to, and the batting order small 1 to 5 In the game in which any of the hitting order replays 1 to 3 is won, the effect control means 510 described later plays a predetermined role (bell or replay D) based on a command signal from the AT management means 150 (main board 100). This refers to a state in which special effects (first special effects and second special effects described later) for assisting the winning are executed by the effect device 600, for example, the effect display device 5, the speaker 6, or the effect lamp 7.

  In the AT state, when a special effect is executed, as will be described later, when any of the batting order small roles 1 to 5 is won in the internal lottery, a special small role (an opportunity to fall into the replay low probability state) It is easy to win a bell with a relatively high payout without winning a winning combination with a relatively low payout, and if any of the batting order replays 1 to 3 is won, the replay high probability state Since it becomes easy to win Replay D, which is an opportunity for promotion to Replay, and Replay A or B that does not affect the lottery status of Replay, it is easy to promote to Replay High Probability State, and Low Replay It is easy to maintain the replay high probability state once transferred without winning Replay C, which is a chance to fall into the probability state, so it is difficult to consume medals and catch medals. And it has a favorable advantageous gaming state in easy player to. The state in which the AT state is set and the replay lottery state is set to the replay high probability state is referred to as an assist replay time (ART) state (see FIG. 6).

  The AT management unit 150 switches between the AT state and the non-AT state (start and end of the AT state) by setting and clearing the AT flag with respect to the main flag storage unit 202 of the main memory 200.

  The AT management means 150 changes from the non-AT state to the AT state in the non-AT state (for example, the normal state (including the CZ state) or the bonus state) based on the fact that the cherry or watermelon that is a specific role is won in the internal lottery AT lottery is performed to determine whether or not to shift to (winning) or not (non-winning).

  The AT management means 150 sets the AT flag when the AT lottery is won and shifts to the AT state, and then starts the AT game based on the transition to the ART state with a high probability of replay. To do. The AT management means 150 refers to an initial number table (not shown) stored in the main memory 200 in order to determine the initial number of games of the AT game at a predetermined opportunity after shifting to the AT state. A lottery (processing related to the start of an advantageous game) is performed.

  The AT management means 150 performs control to forcibly shift to the AT state based on the fact that the game has not shifted to the big bonus or AT game for a predetermined number of games (for example, 1000 G) after the big bonus or AT game. As described above, the AT management means 150 manages the start of the AT state by the number of games.

  The AT management means 150 sets a value (for example, “50”) corresponding to the initial number of games determined by the initial number lottery to the count value of the AT end determination counter 204 stored in the main memory 200.

The AT management means 150 determines that the next game in which the AT state and the replay high probability state are set in a superimposed manner (ART state) is the AT game start game, and from the start game, the AT game Each time is performed, the count value of the AT end determination counter 204 is decremented. Then, based on the count value of the AT end determination counter 204 reaching “0”, the AT management means 150 clears the AT flag, ends the AT state, and ends the AT game.
As described above, the AT game is managed by setting the initial number of games determined by the initial number lottery as one set.

  Note that the AT management means 150 also ends the AT state even when a big bonus is won in the AT state. In this case, the AT management unit 150 may end the AT state, reset the value of the AT end determination counter 204, and carry over the value of the AT end determination counter 204 before the end of the AT state, After the big bonus ends, the AT state may be set again to start the AT game, and the number of games corresponding to the remaining count value may be consumed.

  The AT management means 150 performs an extra lottery based on the winning of cherries and watermelons in order to increase the number of AT games in the AT state during or before the AT game. Addition processing to add to the value set in the end determination counter 204 is performed. In addition, the AT management means 150 performs the continuous lottery based on the winning of the cherry or watermelon in order to continue the AT game currently being performed without ending, and based on the fact that the continuous lottery is won. When the continuation flag is set in the main flag storage unit 202 and the count value of the AT end determination counter 204 reaches “0”, the AT end determination counter 204 is set based on the fact that the continuation flag is set. For example, “50” is set and the continuation flag is cleared. As a result, the AT game can be continued for 50 games or more with one set of AT games even without adding.

  The AT management unit 150 transmits a command signal necessary for an effect control unit 510 (described later) to perform an effect related to the AT state to the sub-board 500 in a timely manner.

(Payout control means 160)
The payout control means 160 performs payout control for paying the hopper unit 32 a number of medals corresponding to a payout determined in advance for each winning combination based on the winning of the winning combination as a result of the internal lottery. The payout control means 160 counts the number of medals actually paid out by detecting the medals paid out from the hopper unit 32 by a payout sensor (not shown). The number of payouts (acquired number) from the start to the end is counted.

  In the slot machine S of the present embodiment, for example, when the so-called “setting” managed in six stages is changed, the main board 100 is controlled to win the big bonus or the special role cherry or watermelon. The number of balls (medal payout number) is controlled to change by changing the probability, the winning probability of CZ lottery or AT lottery, and the like.

  Next, the rendering process of the slot machine S of this embodiment will be described. The sub-board 500 controls the overall performance. The functions of the sub board 500 are realized by the CPU executing software including a program stored in a predetermined memory, like the main board 100.

(Sub-board 500)
Based on the input of the command signal from the main board 100, the sub board 500 performs various arithmetic processes for executing an effect according to the progress of the game, and based on the result of the arithmetic process, the effect device 600 ( Control of the output operation such as a production by (see FIG. 4).

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, the sub-board 500 includes an effect control unit 510, an input information management unit 520, a game number counting unit (game history storage unit) 530, and a game history management unit (event information storage). Means) 540, coded information generation / display means 550, and sub memory 590.

  In addition, the game history storage system of the slot machine S is constituted by these configurations (effect control means 510, input information management means 520, game count counting means 530, game history management means 540, and coded information generation / display means 550). The game history network system 300 is configured.

  Here, the sub memory 590 includes various types of data such as a ROM that stores a program related to effects in the slot machine S of the present embodiment, flags used in the program related to effects generated in the sub board 500, and calculated values. And a RAM used as a work area. Specifically, the sub memory 590 is set with a table or the like for storing information required for each processing by each means provided in the sub substrate 500, information related to the processing result, and the like.

(Production control means 510)
The effect control means 510 performs control to set (transition) an effect state corresponding to the game state from a plurality of types of effect states at a predetermined opportunity in order to execute the effect in accordance with the progress of the game.

  For example, the effect state includes a normal effect state corresponding to the normal state, a bonus winning effect state corresponding to the bonus internal state, a bonus effect state corresponding to the bonus state, a CZ effect state corresponding to the CZ state, and an AT state. The AT effect state corresponding to is set respectively. The effect control unit 510 sets a corresponding effect state based on a command signal related to a game state or the like from the main board 100.

  The effect control means 510 performs control for shifting (setting) the effect state by setting or clearing a flag corresponding to the effect state in the sub flag storage means (not shown) set in the sub memory 590.

  The effect control means 510 refers to an effect data storage area (not shown) of the sub memory 590 in which effect data is stored based on a command signal related to winning of a role or winning from the main board 100 and an effect state. Then, the effect control related to the display effect performed via the effect display device 5 which is one of the effect devices 600, the sound effect performed via the speaker 6, or the illumination effect performed via the effect lamp 7 or the like is performed.

  Further, the effect control means 510 controls the display of the menu display screen and the password input screen on the display screen of the effect display device 5 and moves the cursor based on the operation of the jog dial JD, as will be described later. If the entered password is correct, control is performed to display that the password is correct, and that the password is incorrect if it is incorrect.

  For example, when the production state is the normal production state, the production control unit 510 uses the character of the slot machine S of the present embodiment to suggest winning of a role, winning a prize, etc., or wins a lottery for shifting to an advantageous game state Control is performed to execute a precursor effect that suggests that the game has been performed, a confirmed effect that displays confirmation of the transition to the advantageous gaming state, and the like.

  In addition, when the production state is the bonus winning production state, the production control unit 510 is a special production mode different from the normal production state, and continuously gives big bonuses while giving priority to winning of small roles until the big bonus is won. In the case where the presentation state is the bonus production state, control is performed to perform the presentation for notifying the winning of the small role in a special production mode different from the normal production state.

  Further, the production control means 510 performs control to execute a special production that suggests that the winning probability of the AT lottery is high when the production state is the CZ production state, and when the production state is the AT production state, a plurality of roles are performed. Control is performed to cause the effect display device 5, the speaker 6, the effect lamp 7, etc. to execute a first special effect and a second special effect, which will be described later, to assist in making it easy to win a predetermined role in the selected game. Further, in the same way as in the normal performance state, in addition to the special performance, control is performed to execute an effect suggesting winning of a replay, a small role, or a big bonus, an effect suggesting the possibility of those winnings, and the like.

  Specifically, in the AT effect state, the effect control means 510 has stop buttons 16L-16R that can win a bell when any one of a plurality of batting order small roles is elected in the internal lottery. Control is performed to cause the effect display device 5, the speaker 6, the effect lamp 7, etc. to execute the first special effect informing the order of pushing (the correct answer push order).

  Also, in the AT effect state, the effect control means 510 can stop the replay A, B or D to be awarded when any one of the plurality of batting order replays is won in the internal lotteries 1 to 3. Control is performed to cause the effect display device 5, the speaker 6, the effect lamp 7, or the like to execute the second special effect informing the pressing order of 16R.

  Further, in the AT effect state, the effect control means 510 controls the effect display device 5 to display the initial game number determined by the initial number lottery, the fact that the additional lottery is won in the addition process, the fact that the continuous lottery is won, etc. I do.

  In the present embodiment, as the state relating to the production managed by the production control means 510, in addition to the above-described production state, a plurality of production environments include production data in the sub memory 590 according to the password issued by the management server SV described above. It is stored in the storage area.

  The production control means 510 can set one or a plurality of production environments according to the password information from a plurality of production environments based on the input of the password by the player. When the production environment is set in the slot machine S, a character that does not appear if the production environment is not set (character clothes, accessories, background, etc.) is displayed (changed), or the production environment is not set. Can select music that is not output (played).

  That is, the production environment is a kind of production state that can be changed only when the production environment is set without depending on the game state.

  Note that the player can select one production environment from a plurality of production environments when performing an operation for a password generation request by the game information management application AP of the communication terminal M.

(Input information management means 520)
The input information management means 520 inputs a character string (including symbols) by a predetermined operation (password input operation) to the jog dial JD by the player when the password input screen is displayed on the effect display device 5. In other words, whether or not a character string input operation has been performed is determined, and whether or not the input predetermined character string is the same as the password (official password) issued by the management server SV is determined. When the input information management means 520 determines that the password is an official password, it shifts from the logout state to the login state (specific state) in the management of the game history. Do not migrate to.

  Based on the fact that the input information management unit 520 determines that the password is an official password, the production control unit 510 indicates that the input character is a password (the password is correct) and that the input password is not an official password. Based on this determination, the effect display device 5 is controlled to display that the input character is different from the password (the password is incorrect).

  The password includes user information, and when the user enters the login state, the personal management mode for the player is entered, and the game history management means 540 performs the game performed with the user information of the player. The history is associated and stored.

(Game number counting means 530)
The game number counting means (game history storage means) 530 includes a first count means 531 and a second count means 532, and counts (counts) the number of games of the slot machine S.

The first counting means 531 counts the number of all-day games (first game number) from when the slot machine S is turned on until when the power is turned off.
The first counting means 531 increments the count value of the first counter 591 set in the sub memory 590 based on the command signal transmitted when the start lever 15 is operated in the game start preparation state. The number of games played all day is counted. The number of all-day games is reset upon a bonus winning or power-off.

  Further, based on the fact that the slot machine S has shifted to the login state, the first count means 531 performs a takeover process of taking over the count value of the first counter 591 at that time to the second counter 592. The takeover processing is performed, for example, in such a manner that the count value of the first counter 591 is overwritten on the second counter 592, or the count value of the second counter 592 is once cleared and the same value as the count value of the first counter 591 is substituted. Do.

  Specifically, when the count value of the first counter 591 at the time of the login state is, for example, “300”, the first count unit 531 sets the count value 300 as the count value of the second counter 592. To do. Note that the count value (300) of the first counter 591 is maintained even after the handover process.

  The second counting means 532 counts the number of individual games (second game number) from the game immediately after shifting to the login state until the encoding process described later is performed. The count value at the start of the number of individual games is a value that has been handed over by the first counting means 531 described above.

  In the normal state (non-AT state), the second count means 532 is based on a command signal transmitted when the start lever 15 is operated in the game start preparation state in the same manner as the first count means 531. The count value of the second counter 592 set in the memory 590 is incremented to count the number of normal games.

  Further, the second counting means 532 does not count the second counter 592 in the AT state, but separately counts the AT game number in the AT state to the AT game number counter 593 set in the sub memory 590. ing. The second counting means 532 clears the count value of the second counter 592 when the AT game starts, and clears the count value of the AT game number counter 593 when the AT game ends.

  By the above processing, the second counter 592 that counts the number of individual games does not count the number of games from “0”, but the actual number of games of the slot machine S (the number of games since power-on or after the bonus ends) Therefore, it is possible to accurately grasp the number of transition games in the advantageous gaming state (for example, the CZ state) managed by the number of games, and this information is set in the slot machine S. It can be used as a guessing material. Similarly, the number of AT games can be used as a setting estimation material.

(Game history management means 540)
The game history management means (event information storage means) 540 is an individual set in the sub-memory 590 with the individual game history from the game immediately after the slot machine S shifts to the above-described login state to the encoding process described later. Store in the game history table 594. The personal game history is cleared when the power of the slot machine S is turned off, the setting is changed, or when the logout is performed.

Here, the game history includes event information related to an event that occurs when the game is played, information related to the number of games when the event occurs, and the like. The event information stored as the game history includes: winning information of a combination, bonus winning (specific event) information, transition status to CZ state (CZ lottery winning information), transition status to AT state (AT lottery winning information) ), The appearance rate information (event information), etc. of the premium performance (event) with a low AT state continuation rate and appearance rate are set.
Furthermore, in the event information in the slot machine S of the present embodiment, “start” indicating the start of storage of the personal game history based on the transition to the login state is set.

The game history management means 540 shows the event (type), detailed information about the event, etc. as the number of individual games in association with the number of normal games (G number) in the normal state or the number of AT games (G number) in the AT state. The personal game history table 594 (see FIG. 7) set in the sub memory 590 is stored.
Note that the number of games and events shown in FIG. 7 are examples, and the information stored varies depending on the events and timing that occur.

  As shown in FIG. 7, first, the game history management means 540 uses the count value of the second counter 592 (the number of normal games, for example, 125G) that has been handed over as described above in the individual game history table. In addition to being stored in the game number area 594, “start” indicating that the storage of the personal game history has been started is stored in the event area for storing event information.

  Then, when the player starts the game and, in a normal state, for example, when the CZ lottery is won and the CZ state is entered, “CZ entry” is stored in the event area of the personal game history table 594, and The count value (the number of normal games, for example, 325G) of the second counter 592 at the time of transition to the CZ state is stored in the game number area of the individual game history table 594.

  Further, in the CZ state, when the AT game is started by winning the AT lottery, “AT rush” is stored in the event area of the personal game history table 594, and the second counter 592 at the start of the AT game is counted. The value (normal game count, for example, 370G) is stored in the game count area of the personal game history table 594, and “cherry winning” indicating that the winning trigger of the AT lottery was cherry is detailed information in the personal game history table 594 Store in the area. At that time, the second counting means 532 clears the count value of the second counter 592.

  In addition, when the big game is won and the bonus game is started during the AT game, “Big Bonus” is stored in the event area of the individual game history table 594 and the AT game number counter 593 at the time of winning the big bonus. Is stored in the number-of-games area of the individual game history table 594, and after the end of the big bonus, “185 cards acquired” indicating the number of medals actually acquired with the big bonus is stored. Store in the detailed information area of the game history table 594.

  After the end of the big bonus, the AT game is started again, and the continuous lottery is won at a predetermined timing. When the count value of the AT end determination counter 204 becomes “0”, the AT area is displayed in the event area of the personal game history table 594. “AT continuation” indicating that the game is continued is stored, and the count value (AT game count, for example, 80G) of the AT game count counter 593 when the count value of the AT end determination counter 204 becomes “0” is personal Stored in the number-of-games area of the game history table 594.

  Then, when the count value of the AT end determination counter 204 becomes “0” at 50G after continuing the AT game, “AT end” indicating that the AT game is ended is stored in the event area of the personal game history table 594, In addition, the count value of the second counter 592 (the number of AT games, for example, 130 G) when the count value of the end determination counter 204 becomes “0” is stored in the game count area of the personal game history table 594 and actually “535 acquisitions” indicating the number of medals acquired in the AT game is stored in the detailed information area of the individual game history table 594. At that time, the second counting means 532 clears the count value of the AT game number counter 593.

  Thereafter, when it is determined that the game history information is to be coded based on a predetermined operation by the player, “game end” is stored in the event area of the personal game history table 594 to end the storage of the personal game history. Then, the count value of the second counter 592 (ordinary number of games, for example, 173G) when the coding of the game history information is determined is stored in the number of games area of the individual game history table 594.

(Coded information generation / display means 550)
The coded information generation / display means 550 is stored in the personal game history table 594 by the game history management means 540 when the coding of the game history information is determined in response to a predetermined operation of the jog dial JD by the player. Based on the personal game history, a two-dimensional code (for example, a barcode, a QR code (registered trademark), etc.) related to the personal game history information and privileges is generated, and the generated two-dimensional code is displayed on the display screen of the effect display device 5. Control (encoding process) is performed.

  The player reads the two-dimensional code described above with the communication terminal M (game information management app AP) described above, so that the original personal game history or the like that has been two-dimensionally encoded with the game information management application AP of the communication terminal M can be obtained. It can be visually recognized. As described above, the slot machine S can provide the player with the personal game history and the like by performing the encoding process.

  Note that the input information management unit 520 performs control to shift the management state of the game history from the login state to the logout state based on the determination of the encoding of the game history information as described above.

(Main flow related to personal game history storage)
With reference to FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, the main flow related to the storage of the game history will be described. Note that the user information is registered in the management server SV by the communication terminal M (game information management application AP) is a precondition for the slot machine S to store the personal game history.

  As shown in FIG. 8, when the player operates the jog dial JD on the slot machine S to input a password, the input information management means 520 determines that there has been a password input operation (YES in step S100). Then, a password determination is made as to whether or not the input password is issued by the management server SV (step S110), and if it is determined that the password is correct (YES in step S120), the logged-in state in managing the game history (S130). On the other hand, if it is determined that the password is not correct (NO in step S120), based on this determination, the effect control means 510 displays via the effect display device 5 that the password is incorrect (step). S125), the process is performed again from step S100.

The first counting means 531 performs a takeover process of overwriting the count value of the first counter 591 on the second counter 592 (step S140), and the game history management means 540 performs the count value of the second counter 592 subjected to the takeover process ( “Start” is stored in the corresponding areas in the individual game history table 594 as current game count) and event information (step S150).
The series of steps (processes) up to here are not performed unless there is a password input operation (NO in step S100).

  Through the above steps S100 to S150, the initial process for storing the personal game history is completed, and in particular, the actual number of games of the slot machine S at the time of login (from the time of power-on) by the process of step S150. Since the number of games or the number of games since the end of the bonus can be stored in association with the “start” of the storage of the personal game history as event information, for example, an advantageous game state managed by the number of games (for example, The number of transition games in the (CZ state) can be accurately grasped, and the individual game history can be used as a guessing material for setting the slot machine S.

  When the start lever 15 is operated in the game start preparation state as shown in FIG. 9 after the above-described initial process for storing the personal game history is completed (YES in step S200), the second counting means 532 is operated. Counts “1” as the count value of the second counter 592 (step S210). When a specific combination is won by various lotteries based on the operation of the start lever 15, a CZ lottery is won to shift to the CZ state, or an AT lottery is won to shift to the AT state (step S220). YES), the event information is associated with the count value of the second counter 592 when the event occurs and stored in the personal game history table 594 (step S230).

  In this way, by storing the event information and the actual number of games of the slot machine S (the number of games since the power was turned on or the number of games after the end of the bonus), the count value of the second counter 592 is stored. Accurate gaming history can be managed. If an event does not occur (NO in step S220), the process in step S230 is skipped, and the process in step S240 and later described below is performed.

  When the player determines the coding by operating the jog dial JD on the slot machine S in order to acquire the personal game history and privileges stored so far (YES in S240), the coded information generation / display means 550 A two-dimensional code related to a personal game history and a privilege output based on the game history is generated, and a coding process for displaying the two-dimensional code on the display screen of the effect display device 5 is performed (step S250). As a result, the player can read the two-dimensional code into the communication terminal M he owns and visually recognize (use) the personal game history and the like via the game information management application AP.

When the encoding is determined, the input information management unit 520 shifts to a logout state in managing the game history (step S260). On the other hand, when the jog dial JD is not operated and the encoding is not determined (NO in S240), the processes in steps S250 and S260 are skipped, and the series of processes is terminated.
The series of steps (processing) up to this point is not performed unless the start lever 15 is operated in the game start preparation state (NO in step S200).

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, it is possible to give the following deformation | transformation and change with respect to these embodiment within the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention. Moreover, it is possible to combine suitably each structural member, process, conditions, etc. in said one Embodiment of this invention, and the following modification.

(Modification 1)
In the above embodiment, the game history management means 540 stores only the individual game history. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the all-day game history from when the slot machine S is turned on until when the power is turned off is stored in the sub memory.
