Based on the detection signal from the full detection fitting 600, the main control unit 400 monitors whether or not the game medals inside the gaming machine are full.

  The main control unit 400 also provides predetermined game information (for example, game start information, game medals) to the hall computer HC that comprehensively manages the operating status of the gaming machines in the pachinko store via the external concentration terminal board 310. Information on the number of coins inserted / withdrawn, information on occurrence of winnings, information on occurrence of bonus games, etc.) can be transmitted.

  In addition, a rotating drum setting board 430 is connected to the main controller 400. The rotating drum setting board 430 includes a reset switch for releasing a predetermined operation error, a setting change switch for changing a setting value, a setting key switch for enabling the setting change switch, and the like. The rotation setting board 430 can transmit a detection signal to the main control unit 400 when these switches are operated.

  The above “set value” defines the expected value of profits to be given to the player (so-called machine discount and PAYOUT rate), and is exclusively for the sales strategy of the hall (amusement store). Based on the above, it is appropriately set by the hall clerk. In the present embodiment, it is determined that the machine discount (delay rate) increases in the order of the set values 1 to 6, and the higher the set value, the more the predetermined lottery executed on the gaming machine is preferentially treated. It has become. For example, as the set value increases, the internal lottery probability (FIG. 4A, FIG. 4B) of one or more types of specific lottery object (for example, weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, etc.) is relatively high. The probability is set so as to be advantageous to the player. Accordingly, regarding the machine discount, the lowest set value “1” is the most disadvantaged for the player, and the highest set value “6” is the most advantageous for the player.

  In addition, an effect control unit 410 is connected to the main control unit 400. The effect control unit 410 is mainly configured of an effect control board 420 and a liquid crystal control board 460, and the effect control board 420 is connected to the main control part 400 via an effect I / F (interface) board 340. The effect control board 420 is connected to the liquid crystal control board 460 via the effect I / F board 340.

  The main control unit 400 can transmit various effect control commands including information related to the game to the effect control unit 24 according to the processing state. However, in order to prevent the goto action, the main control unit 400 only transmits a signal to the effect control unit 410 (the effect control board 420) and cannot receive a signal from the effect control unit 24. It becomes the composition of.

(Production control unit 410: production control board 420, liquid crystal control board 460)
The effect control board 420 is equipped with a microprocessor with a built-in CPU (effect control CPU), a ROM (effect control ROM) storing effect data required for effect control processing, and a RAM (function area or buffer memory). In addition, an interrupt controller circuit having a timer interrupt / interrupt disable function and the like, and a counter circuit (16 for generating a certain range of random numbers in hardware) Bit counter). The effect control CPU acquires the numerical value indicated by the random number generation circuit as an effect lottery random value according to the processing state, and uses the random number value for effect lottery for selecting an effect.

  The effect control board 420 is connected to an effect button switch (not shown) for detecting the operation of the effect button, and the effect control board 420 can receive an operation detection signal from the effect button. .

  The main role of the effect control board 420 is to receive the effect control command from the main control unit 400, to determine the effect based on the effect control command, to send the liquid crystal control command to the liquid crystal control board 460, to control the sound of the speaker 16, and to decorate This includes light emission control of the lamp 13 and various effect LEDs, operation control of a movable body accessory (not shown), and the like.

  The effect control board 420 receives an effect control command from the main control unit 400 and displays an effect by light, sound, or a movable body accessory for an optical display device including the decoration lamp 13 and the effect LED. An optical display control unit, an acoustic control unit (sound source LSI) for a sound generator including a speaker 46, a drive control unit (motor drive circuit) for a movable body accessory motor for operating the movable body accessory, and the like are provided. The effect control board 420 can transmit a control signal for controlling the effect means to these control units.

  The liquid crystal control board 460 also includes a VDP that controls the overall video output processing such as image expansion processing and image drawing, an image ROM that stores image data (effect image data) that the VDP performs image expansion processing, and a VDP that A VRAM that temporarily stores the developed image data, a CPU (liquid crystal control CPU) that outputs control data necessary for the VDP to perform display control, a program that describes the display control operation procedure of the liquid crystal control CPU, and the program A ROM (Liquid Crystal Control ROM) that stores various data necessary for display control and a RAM (Liquid Crystal Control RAM) that functions as a work area or a buffer memory are mainly configured. The main role of the liquid crystal control board 460 is to receive a liquid crystal control command from the effect control board 420 and to control the appearance of the image display effect of the liquid crystal display device 6 based on the liquid crystal control command.

  As for the appearance control of the production, the production control board 420 (production control CPU) constructs the production scenario to appear based on a predetermined production control command sent from the main control unit 400, and the effect is displayed according to the production scenario. A dedicated control signal is transmitted to the sound generating device and the optical display device at a timing when sound and light effects need to be generated, and a liquid crystal control command is transmitted to the liquid crystal display device 6 at a timing at which image reproduction is necessary. Transmit to the control board 460. The liquid crystal control board 460 receives the liquid crystal control command, generates a display drive signal for the liquid crystal display device 6, and controls the appearance of the image display effect by the liquid crystal display device 6. The production scenario is a production in a broad sense including a plurality of types of production patterns, and each production pattern functions as one element (part production) constituting the production scenario. This realizes image display effects (effect image display), sound effects (sound playback), light effects (LED / lamp blinking lighting drive), and movable object effects (operation of an accessory) according to the effect scenario. Then, various production patterns are developed in time series to produce the desired production.

  Further, the presentation control board 420 receives a command from the main control unit 400 for designating the current gaming state (a gaming state managed on the main control unit side) and a command for designating the game state transition. It is the structure which can carry out transfer control between production | presentation states (production mode). Specifically, the production control board 420 has production state management means for managing the production mode related to the gaming state, and the production state management means is the main control unit 400 side from the information included in the specific production control command. Understand the various game states to be managed, for example, the initial game described later, the prepared ART game, the main ART game, the BB internal winning game, the bonus game, etc., and maintain consistency with the game state on the main control unit side. The transition control is performed from among a plurality of types of effect modes to the effect mode corresponding to the current game state, and an appropriate effect related to the game state is made to appear.

(Outline of game operation)
Next, an outline of the game operation will be described. The main control unit 400 executes a role lottery (internal lottery) when the operation of the start lever 11 is detected under a predetermined game start condition, and executes rotation control of the spinning cylinder. Specifically, the main control unit 400 determines a predetermined number (for example, three) of games that can be started based on a medal insertion signal (a detection signal from the medal detection sensor 7a, the MAX bet switch 8a, or the 1 bet switch 9a). It is monitored whether or not a game medal has been inserted, and if it is confirmed that the specified number has been inserted, the operation signal input from the start switch 11a is validated, that is, set to a “game start ready state”. When input of an operation signal from the start switch 11a is confirmed in this game startable state, an internal lottery is executed based on the internal lottery random value and the “role lottery table” shown in FIGS. 4A to 4B. To do.

The main control unit 400 determines which role has been won by the internal lottery process and whether it is a “losing”, and stores the lottery result information in a predetermined area of the main control RAM until the predetermined process is completed. Store (set). In principle, the lottery result information is cleared for each game.

(Role lottery table: FIGS. 4A and 4B)
FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B illustrate role lottery tables according to the present embodiment. The combination lottery table includes multiple types of combination lottery tables according to various game states (RT0 to RT3 games described later, BB inside (BB internal selection), BB (bonus game), etc.). It is.

  Further, in the role lottery table, a role lottery table corresponding to a set value (for example, set values 1 to 6) is provided. For example, for the role lottery tables corresponding to RT0 to RT3 games, the lottery probability of one or more types of specific lottery object (for example, weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, etc.) varies depending on the set value. The lottery probability of a specific lottery target role is determined such that the higher the set value, the more advantageous the player is. In the drawing, a role lottery table corresponding to a specific set value (for example, set value 6) is representatively shown, and the role lottery tables corresponding to other set values are omitted in order to avoid duplication.

  In the “role lottery table”, a lottery region (the size of the lottery region is 65536) having a winning area (determination value) corresponding to a lottery target role (a role to be a target of lottery) is defined as illustrated. Thus, the winning probability (determination value / lottery area size: internal winning probability) of each combination is defined. In the case of this embodiment, 43 types of lottery target roles including unsuccessful (losing) are provided as lottery target roles (details will be described later), and the main control unit 400 stores the role lottery table. With reference to which combination value the internal lottery random number value belongs to, it is determined which of the winning combinations has been won or is unfair (losing). Also, as shown in the figure, depending on the gaming state (RT0 to RT3, inside BB, during BB), the specific lottery target type, the winning probability of the specific lottery target, etc. are different, and lottery is performed according to the gaming state. The game content is enriched by changing the target roles.

  When the internal lottery process is completed, the main control unit 400 controls the rotation of the rotating drum drive motors 211a to 211c, starts rotating the rotating drums 5a to 5c, and rotates the rotating drums at a substantially constant speed. Thereby, the rotation operation | movement which rotates each rotation cylinder is implement | achieved. However, when a freeze effect (freeze at the time of lever operation) to be described later is executed, a normal rotation operation is started after a predetermined freeze time.

  When each spinning cylinder is rotated at a substantially constant speed, the main control unit 400 validates input of operation signals from the stop switches 12a 'to 12c', that is, sets the "stop operation allowable state". When the operation signal input from the stop switches 12a ′ to 12c ′ is confirmed in the stop operation permissible state, the symbol number existing at a specific position (for example, on the lower horizontal line in FIG. 7) is stopped at that timing. Acquired as “stop operation symbol number” for the target rotating cylinder, and set stop data to determine how many frames (sliding frame number) from the stopping operation symbol number to move to stop the rotating cylinder Index from the “stop table (not shown)” and stop the spinning cylinder at the target position.

  In the above-mentioned “stop table”, stop data that defines the number of sliding symbols for the “stop operation symbol number” is defined within the range of the maximum number of frames to be pulled in (in this embodiment, a maximum of four frames). It is possible to execute so-called “draw-in control” in which a specific symbol is drawn onto the effective winning line and stopped within the frame number range. Thereby, the stop control (pull-in control) of the spinning cylinder is realized in which the combination of symbols (winning combination) corresponding to the winning combination is drawn on the effective winning line and stopped. If the number of sliding symbols and the pull-in rate corresponding to the symbols in the symbol arrangement band 200 of each of the cylinders are determined using such characteristics of the “pull-in control”, the component symbol of the winning combination is stopped by the stop operation procedure (push order). (Depending on the stop operation timing), it is possible to stop on the effective pay line (with a pull-in rate of 100%), and depending on the stop operation procedure, even if the maximum number of sliding frames is drawn, it is impossible to stop on the effective pay line, A so-called “spillover” can occur.

  In the case of “unsuccessful (losing)” in which no winning combination has been won by internal lottery, the stop position of the spinning cylinder is determined so that the combination of symbols corresponding to any winning combination will not stop on the effective winning line. The Therefore, in a game that is “losing”, the combination of symbols corresponding to any combination does not stop on the effective winning line regardless of the stopping operation procedure of the spinning cylinder, and the game result is always “lost”. Become.

<About the role composition: FIGS. 5A to 5C>
Next, with reference to FIG. 5A to FIG. 5C, a combination structure according to the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 5A to FIG. 5C are for establishing the type of lottery target role (lottery target type), the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination (winning role type), the name of the role, and the combination of symbols according to the present embodiment. This illustrates the relationship between the stop operation procedure and the payout (game value).

  5A to 5C, the symbols corresponding to the columns of “left turning cylinder”, “middle turning cylinder”, and “right turning cylinder” are stop symbols on the effective winning line in the rotation cylinders 5a, 5b, and 5c. Show. In addition, regarding the notation of “left”, “middle”, and “right” in the “push order” column in the figure, “left” indicates that the stop operation target is the left rotating cylinder 5a, “middle” indicates the intermediate rotating cylinder 5b, and “right” indicates This means the right cylinder 5c, and the notations such as “left middle right” and “first stop left” in the same column indicate the combination of symbols corresponding to the “winning role type” column in the same figure. The order of the cylinder stop operation (push order) is shown. For example, the notation of “left middle right” means the pushing order of stopping the rotating cylinder in this order of the left rotating cylinder 5a, the middle rotating cylinder 5b, and the right rotating cylinder 5c, and the expression “first stop left” is The first stop operation means a pressing order in which the left cylinder 5a is used. Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, the X-th stop operation is abbreviated as “X-th stop”, and “the Xth stop to be subject to the stop operation” is “X-th stop left” “X-th stop” as necessary. Abbreviated as “medium”, “Xth stop right”, etc. However, in the lottery target types shown in the figure, when the winning combination is won, not only the pressing order but also a predetermined stop operation timing may be required as a condition for winning the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination. is there.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 5A to 5C, a plurality of types of lottery object combinations (lottery numbers 1 to 42) are provided. These lottery target roles belong to “special role types” that trigger the transition to “bonus game” described later, and “pay out a predetermined number of game medals (including 0 payouts). It is roughly divided into those belonging to “small role type” with “and“ replay role type (replaying role type) ”with“ replay ”.

  The above-mentioned “re-game” is performed regardless of the insertion of a game medal (game medium) or the like (including the use of a game medal for a game by a credit means or operation of other devices). A game that can be played. Specifically, the same amount (same number) as the amount of game media (number of inserted games) used in the current game is artificially given (automatically charged) to give the next game start condition. This re-game can be said to have game value in the same way as a game medal in that the player can play the next game without reducing the game medal. The game value given to the player includes not only re-games and game medals, but also a game state transition, a right to execute a game state transition lottery (for example, an AT lottery described later), and the like. In addition, the game value is not limited to the one that favors the player, but one that acts against the player adversely (for example, a fall transition to another gaming state having a lower profit level than the advantageous gaming state) Is also included.

  In the present embodiment, “BB1, BB2” (lottery numbers 41, 42) are provided for the special role types described above, and “weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, common” are used for the small role types. "Bell A, common bell B, push order bell type" (lottery numbers 23 to 40) are provided, and the replay role types are "normal replay, transition replay type, production replay, chance replay" (lottery numbers 1 to 22). ] "Etc. are provided (FIGS. 5A to 5C).

  If any of the above-mentioned lottery winning combinations is determined as a winning combination by internal lottery, the combination of symbols (winning combination) corresponding to the winning combination is allowed to be stopped and displayed on the effective winning line. Specifically, when a winning combination is determined by an internal lottery, one or more types of internal winning flags corresponding to the winning combination are established, and a combination of symbols (winning combination) corresponding to the established internal winning flag is: It is allowed to stop display on the effective pay line. Therefore, depending on the winning combination, there are some cases where a plurality of types of internal winning flags are established in one internal lottery, and there are a plurality of types of corresponding symbol combinations (winning combinations). For example, the RT2 transition replay (winning numbers 1 to 7), which will be described later, accepts winning of two types of winning combinations, a normal replay and an RT2 transition replay, as the winning combination. Such a lottery target is synonymous with simultaneous winning of both normal replay A and RT2 replay in one internal lottery (double winning), and multiple types of winnings can be won simultaneously in one internal lottery. Can be treated as a “duplicate role”. In this embodiment, like this “duplicate role”, there is provided a lottery target role in which a winning combination and a stop symbol pattern (winning combination) allowed by the winning combination are associated with 1 to N, and one winning combination is provided. On the other hand, the game contents are enriched by providing a plurality of types of stop symbols to make this effective. In addition to the above-described transition replay type (winning numbers 1 to 7), the replay type (lottery numbers 16 to 21), push order bell type (lottery numbers 29 to 40).

  In this specification, a combination of symbols that stops on the effective winning line corresponding to the winning combination may be referred to as a “winning combination”, and the combination of symbols treated as the winning combination is displayed on the effective winning line. Stopping (establishing) may be referred to as “winning”. It should be noted that a specific stop symbol display mode (so-called “spotted eye”) in the case where “missing” occurs can also be handled as one mode of winning combination. Further, in this specification, the notation of “symbol 1 / symbol 2 /./ symbol N” means “symbol 1, symbol 2,..., Or symbol N”. "-" Bell A "-" Upper / Cherry ", the combination of symbols" Replay "-" Bell A "-" Upper bullet ", or" Replay "-" Bell A "-" Cherry " This means a combination of symbols.

(Pseudo winning line)
Here, in order to facilitate understanding of the present invention, the relationship between a virtual winning line (hereinafter referred to as “pseudo winning line”) and an effective winning line will be described first with reference to FIG. deep.

  For the lottery subject in this embodiment, when winning, regardless of the order of pressing, the “Push order unquestioned role” that allows the winning of the corresponding winning combination, or at least different winning combinations depending on the pressing order is allowed. The “push order regulation role” is included, and the game is enriched by a wide variety of roles.

  In the case where a wide variety of roles are provided and the range of game play is widened as described above, for example, as seen in many conventional revolving game machines, for example, “Right Down Line” shown in FIGS. 6 (A) and 6 (B) "A number of effective winning lines such as a so-called" 5-line machine "that handles a total of five winning lines," Left Down Line "," Upper Horizontal Line "," Middle Horizontal Line "and" Lower Horizontal Line "as effective winning lines. If there is, the role composition becomes complicated in designing the gaming machine due to the pull-in control, the symbol component configuration of the role, the symbol arrangement configuration in the symbol arrangement band, etc., and the type of role must be limited It will disappear, and the degree of freedom of game will be hindered.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the number of effective pay lines is reduced, for example, a “one line machine” that handles only one “right down line” as shown in FIG. 6 (A) as an effective pay line, and FIG. 6 (B). The broken lines of “left down line”, “upper horizontal line”, “middle horizontal line” and “lower horizontal line” are virtual winning lines (hereinafter referred to as “pseudo winning lines”). A winning line simulating a “5-line machine” is formed. The relationship between the effective winning line and the pseudo winning line is as follows. For example, when “normal replay A” shown in FIG. 5A is won, the disparity stops at the glance of “replay” — “bell A” — “upper / cherry” on the effective pay line, On the “horizontal line”, the same symbol combination “replay”-“replay”-“replay” (replay symbol alignment) stops (upper replay display). In this way, on the effective winning line, at first glance, the discoloration like losing is stopped, but from the viewpoint of the pseudo winning line, the 'replay pattern alignment' is on the upper line. Is established, and the combination of symbols that the player can easily recognize is stopped (appears as if the normal replay was won). Similarly for other combinations, there are symbols on the pseudo pay line that can be easily recognized by the player, or special stop eyes can be stopped (for example, weak watermelon, push order bells A to B, push buttons). Order bell type). What should not be confused here is a symbol combination (true winning combination) corresponding to the actual winning combination, such as the above-mentioned “separation”, which stops on the pseudo winning line. Is a virtual winning combination (virtual winning combination) that is derived and displayed as an alternative symbol combination of a true winning combination that stops on the effective winning line. In this way, by making good use of the roles of the pseudo winning line and the effective winning line, the degree of freedom of the role composition can be increased and the game contents can be enriched.

  Returning to the description of FIG. 5A to FIG. 5C again, the combination of the roles according to the present embodiment (the relationship between the lottery object type, the combination of symbols corresponding to the winning combination (winning combination type) and the payout) will be described. In the following, for convenience of explanation, the “true winning combination” side that stops on the effective winning line is shown in the “design combination” column.

(Replay role: lottery numbers 1-22)
With reference to FIGS. 5A and 5B, the replay role type (lottery numbers 1 to 22) will be described first. In this embodiment, as the replay role type, “Push order unreplayed replay role (replay role that allows winning a specific replay symbol regardless of the push order)” belonging to the push order unquestioned role, And the like, “a push order prescribed replay game (replay game that allows winning different replay symbols depending on the push order)” and the like.

(Normal replay A: Lottery number 1)
First, “normal replay A” of lottery number 1 will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 5A, the combination of symbols allowed to win by winning the normal replay A is the combination of symbols “Replay”-“Bell A”-“Upper / Cherry” (normal replay). . This normal replay A belongs to the above-mentioned “push order unrequired role (push order unrequired replay role)”, and does not require a stop operation timing for winning a corresponding symbol combination (normal replay). That is, when the normal replay A is won, the normal replay wins regardless of any stop operation procedure, and “replay” is awarded as a payout. As for the cherry design of the right-handed cylinder 5c, if the cherry design other than the 6th cherry design is stopped and the normal replay is stopped on the effective winning line as described above, the replay is displayed on the upper horizontal line. The pattern alignment is displayed (upper replay display). In this regard, the same applies to other lottery targets that allow normal replay winnings, such as the RT2 transition lip type and the effect replay type described later.

(Transition replay type: lottery numbers 2 to 15)
Next, the “transition replay type” of lottery numbers 2 to 15 will be described. These transition replay types belong to the above-mentioned “push order prescribed combination (push order prescribed re-playing combination)”. To "RT1 fallen lip type" and lottery numbers 11 to 15 "RT3 promoted lip type".

  Note that the push order defining combination of the present embodiment includes a combination of symbols (advantageous winning combination) that works advantageously for the player in the case of a predetermined push order, and for the player in the case of a different push order. A combination of symbols that can act adversely (unfavorable winning combination) is determined so that it can be stopped (winning) on the effective winning line (for example, transition lip type or push order bell type described later), push Different symbol combinations are awarded according to the order, but without having the weight of dividends unlike the above-mentioned advantageous winning combination and unfavorable winning combination, it is produced by deriving and displaying different symbol combinations depending on the pressing order. Features that provide special effects such as those that exert a special effect (for example, replays 1 to 5 described later) are provided.

(RT2 transfer lip type: lottery numbers 2-7)
First, the “RT2 transition lip” type of lottery numbers 2 to 7 will be described. As shown in FIG. 5A, the RT2 transition lip types are provided with six types of RT2 transition lip, that is, RT2 transition lip 123 to RT2 transition lip 321 in total.

  The RT2 transition lip 123 to the RT transition lip 321 belong to the “push order regulation combination (push order regulation re-playing combination)” and are prize winning combinations (advantageous winning combinations) that can act advantageously for the player according to the pushing order. Or a winning combination that can act adversely (unfavorable winning combination) can be stopped (winning) on the effective winning line. The RT2 transition lip 123 to the RT transition 321 are substantially the same except for the difference in the pushing order regarding the winning combination of the advantageous winning combination or the unfavorable winning combination (see the “Pushing Order” column in FIG. 5A). Therefore, in order to avoid duplicate description, “RT2 transition lip 123” of lottery number 1 will be representatively described here.

(About RT2 transfer Lip 123)
The combination of symbols allowed to win by winning the “RT2 transition lip 123” is (1) a combination of “Replay”-“Replay”-“Replay” (RT2 transition replay: diagonally right replay display), ( 2) Similar to the normal replay A, the symbol combination of “replay”-“bell A”-“upper / cherry” (normal replay) is used. That is, when the RT2 transition lip 123 is determined as the winning combination, the RT2 transition replay and the normal replay are placed in the winning allowable state as the winning combination. In other words, the RT2 transition lip 123 serves as a “duplicate role” that can be won by the winning combination of the RT2 transition replay winning combination and the normal replay winning combination (normal replay A). It can be said that it has properties.

  Next, the combination of symbols allowed to win by winning the RT2 transition lip 123 will be described in detail from the standpoint of stop control as follows.

(When the pressing order is “left middle right”)
As shown in FIG. 5A, when the RT2 transition lip 123 is won, and the push order is “left middle right”, the rotation stop control is performed so that the RT2 transition replay stops (wins) on the effective winning line. (Retraction control) is performed.

(When the push order is other than “Left Center Right”)
On the other hand, when the pressing order is a pressing order other than “left middle right”, the rotating cylinder stop control is performed so that the normal replay stops on the effective pay line, not the RT2 transition replay.

  As can be seen from the “push order” column in FIG. 5A, “RT2 transition replay” stops on the active winning line when the RT2 transition lip type is a predetermined push order assigned to each. When the pressing order is different from the assigned predetermined pressing order, “normal replay” stops on the effective pay line. Further, in the case of this embodiment, in order to win a winning combination related to the RT2 transition lip type, only the pressing order is involved, and the stop operation timing is not required (in the case of this embodiment, described later). The same applies to the RT1 falling lip type and the RT3 promotion lip type). As for the push order for winning the RT transition replay, a different push order is assigned to each RT2 transition lip (see the “push order” column in FIG. 5A).

(About the dividend of RT2 transition Lip 123)
When the “normal replay” or “RT2 transition replay” wins, “replay” is awarded as a payout. However, when the RT2 transition replay wins, in addition to the replay, other game values such as “transition of gaming state” such as “transition to RT2 game having higher profit than RT1 game” are added. It has become so. On the other hand, even if “Normal Replay” wins, the game state does not change and the current RT game is maintained. In this regard, the RT2 transition replay related to the RT2 transition lip type is a winning combination on the side of an advantageous winning combination (a winning combination having a higher game value than the normal replay), and a normal replay is a winning combination on the side of a disadvantaged winning combination (more than the RT2 transition replay) It is positioned as a winning role with low gaming value). Thus, the RT2 transition lip 123 (same for other RT2 transition replay types) acts as a “state transition trigger” that triggers transition from one gaming state to another gaming state due to the winning. . The contents of each RT game and the transition control between each RT game will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

  Here, in FIGS. 5A to 5C, the Arabic numerals attached to the role names in the “Lottery target role type” column of FIG. 5 indicate the pressing order for winning a specific winning combination. Shows the pushing order for winning the winning prize winning side. For example, in the case of “RT2 transition lip 123”, for the Arabic numeral notation portion of “123”, the notation of “1” is the left turning cylinder 5a, the notation of “2” is the middle turning cylinder 5b, and the notation of “3” is the clockwise Corresponding to the body 5c, the notation "123" means the order of pressing "left middle right". Similarly, “132” is “left middle right”, “213” is “middle left and right”, “231” is “middle right left”, “312” is “right left middle”, “321”. "Means 'right middle left'. In addition, “1XX” indicates “the first stop left turn cylinder, the pushing order of the remaining turning cylinders is unquestioned”, “2XX” is “the first stop and the pushing order of the remaining turning cylinders does not matter”, “3XX "Means" the first stop right turn cylinder and the pushing order of the remaining turn cylinders are unquestioned ".

(RT1 fall lip type: lottery number 8-10)
Next, the “RT1 falling lip” type of lottery numbers 8 to 10 will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 5A, a total of three types of RT1 falling lip, RT1 falling lip 1XX to RT transition lip 3XX, are provided in the RT1 falling lip type. The RT1 fall lip type belongs to the “push order prescribed combination (push order prescribed re-game player)”, similar to the RT2 transition lip type.

  The above-mentioned RT1 fallen lip 1XX to RT transition lip 3XX are mainly the same except for the difference in pushing order regarding the advantageous winning combination or the disadvantageous winning combination, and in order to avoid duplication, The lottery number 9 “RT1 falling lip 1XX” will be representatively described. In addition, about the content substantially the same as the above-mentioned "RT2 transition lip type (RT2 transition replay 123)", the description is abbreviate | omitted suitably in order to avoid duplication description.

(About RT1 Tipping Lip 1XX)
The combination of symbols allowed to win by winning “RT1 Falling Lip 1XX” is (1) “Replay”-“Bell A”-“Upper / Cherry” symbol combination (normal replay), (2) It is a symbol combination of “Replay” − “Replay” − “Bell A / Bell B” (falling replay). That is, when RT1 falling lip 1XX is determined as a winning combination, the falling replay and the normal replay are placed in a winning allowed state.

  When the RT1 falling lip 1XX is won, as shown in the figure, which combination of symbols stops on the effective pay line is determined in the push order as in the above-mentioned event “RT2 transition lip 123”. Is done. Specifically, when the pressing order is “first stop left”, “normal replay” is stopped (winning replay) is stopped (winning) on any other pressing order. It has become. Similarly, for the other RT1 falling lip (falling lip 2XX to RT1 falling lip 3XX), it is determined according to the pressing order which combination of symbols stops on the effective pay line. As for the pressing order for winning “normal replay” or “falling replay”, different RT1 falling lips are assigned to each other (see the column “Pushing Order” in FIG. 5A).

(About the dividend of RT1 falling lip 1XX)
When the “normal replay” or “falling replay” wins, “replay” is awarded as a payout. However, when the fall replay wins, in addition to the replay as a payout, “RT2 game or RT3 game is dropped to RT1 game (replay probability is“ RT1 game <RT2 game, RT3 game ”relationship: FIG. 7)) and other game values such as “game state transition” are additionally given. On the other hand, even if the normal replay wins, the game state does not change and the current RT game is maintained. In this regard, the normal replay related to the RT1 falling lip type is a winning combination on the side of the advantageous winning combination (a winning combination having a higher game value than the falling replay), and a falling replay is a winning combination on the side of the disadvantaged winning combination (the game value is higher than the normal replay). Has a relatively low winning position). Thus, the RT1 falling lip 1XX also acts as a “state transition trigger” in the same way as the RT2 transition lip type described above, in that it also triggers the transition of the gaming state.

(RT3 promotion lip type: lottery numbers 11-15)
Next, the “RT3 promotion lip” type of lottery numbers 11 to 15 will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 5A, five types of RT3 promotion lip, RT3 promotion lip 1XX to RT transition 321 are provided in this RT3 promotion lip type. The RT promotion lip type belongs to the “push order prescribed combination (push order prescribed re-game player)”, similar to the RT2 transition lip type.

  The RT3 promotion lip 1XX-RT transition lip 321 is substantially the same except for the difference in pushing order regarding the advantageous winning combination or the disadvantageous winning combination. In order to avoid this, the lottery number 11 “RT3 promotion lip 1XX” will be representatively described. In addition, about the content substantially the same as the above-mentioned "RT2 transition lip type (RT2 transition replay 123)", the description is abbreviate | omitted suitably in order to avoid duplication description.

(About RT3 Promotion Lip 1XX)
The combination of symbols allowed for winning by winning the “RT3 Promotion Lip 1XX” is (1) “Watermelon A / Watermelon B / Red 7”-“Replay”-“Watermelon A / Watermelon B / Red 7” Combination (RT3 promotion replay (middle stage replay display): 9 types in total) and (2) “Replay”-“Replay”-“Bell A / Bell B” symbol combination (falling replay: 2 types in total) Yes. That is, when RT3 promotion lip 1XX is determined as a winning combination, RT3 promotion replay and fall replay are placed in a prize-permitted state.

  Even when the RT3 promotion lip 1XX is won, it is determined in the order of pressing, as in the above “RT2 transition lip 123”, which symbol combination is stopped on the valid pay line. Specifically, “RT3 promotion replay” is valid when the push order is “first stop left (first stop is left turn cylinder 5a)”, and “fall-down replay” is valid for other push orders. Stops on the winning line. Similarly, for other RT promotion lips, it is determined in accordance with the pressing order which combination of symbols stops on the valid pay line. As for the push order for winning the RT3 promotion replay, a different push order is assigned to each RT3 promotion lip (see the “push order” column in FIG. 5A).

(About dividends for RT3 promotion Lip 1XX)
When the “RT3 promotion replay” or “falling replay” wins, “replay” is awarded as a payout. However, when the RT3 promotion replay wins, in addition to the re-game, other game values such as “transition of gaming state” such as “promoted transition from RT2 game to RT3 game” are given as a payout. . On the other hand, when the fall replay wins, as described above, a game value such as “falling down from RT2 game or RT3 game to RT1 game” is given. In this regard, the “RT3 promotion replay” relating to the RT3 promotion lip type is positioned as a winning combination on the side of an advantageous winning combination, and “falling replay” is positioned as a winning combination on the side of an unfavorable winning combination. In this way, the RT3 promotion lip 1XX also functions as a “state transition trigger” in the same manner as the RT2 transition replay 123 described above.

(Direction replay: lottery numbers 16-21)
Next, with reference to FIG. 5B, the production replay types of lottery numbers 16 to 21 will be described.

  In the effect replay type, as shown in FIG. 5B, a total of six types of effect replays of effect replay 123 to effect replay 321 are provided. The production replay type belongs to the “push order prescribed combination (push order prescribed re-playing combination)”, similar to the transition lip type.

(Winning design for production (Replay design for production))
However, the “production replay type” is greatly different from the “transition replay type (RT2 transition lip type, RT1 fall lip type and RT3 promotion lip type)” described above. The production replay type belongs to the “push order specified combination (push order specified re-playing type)” in the same manner as the transition replay type. A winning combination with a light weight (advantageous disadvantage) like an unfavorable winning combination does not stop on the effective winning line, and the same game value (replay) for the dividend regardless of the pushing order. The winning combination (replaying role) with is to win. In other words, the production replay type does not have a payout weight unlike the advantageous winning combination and the disadvantageous winning combination, and the combination of different symbols depending on the pressing order (the replay symbol for production (the winning design for production)) is derived and displayed. By doing this, it works as a “replay role for directing (directing role)” that exerts a stunning effect. This is very different from the transition replay type in which a different payout is awarded depending on the pressing order.

  The above-mentioned “production replay 123 to production replay 321” are substantially the same except for the difference in the pushing order regarding the winnings of the 7 replays, 7 rip fakes, and normal replays shown in the figure, and therefore are described here in duplicate. In order to avoid this, the “production replay 123” of the lottery number 16 will be representatively described.

  The combination of symbols allowed to win by winning the “Director Replay 123” is: (1) “Red 7 / Replay” − “Red 7 / Bell A” − “Red 7 / Upper / Cherry” (7 Replay), (2) “7 Lip Fake (7 Lip Hearing Eyes)”, and (3) “Replay”-“Bell A”-“Upper / Cherry” symbol combination (normal replay) Yes. That is, when the production replay 123 is determined as the winning combination, 7 replays, 7 rip fakes, and normal replays are placed in a winning-permitted state.

(7 replays)
The above “7 Replay” is a combination of symbols of “Red 7 / Replay” − “Red 7 / Bell A” − “Red 7 / Upper / Cherry” (7 Replays), but the pressing order matches. In the case of a specific stop operation timing, “red 7”-“red 7”-“red 7” are stopped on the effective pay line, and a special symbol combination of “red 7 symbol alignment” is stopped. . For example, in the case of the production replay 123, when the “left middle right” pressing order matches and the red 7 symbols are operated at a stop operation timing at which the red 7 symbols can be drawn, the “red 7 symbol set” that is 7 replays stops. .

  On the other hand, when the spinning cylinder is stopped, the pressing order is the same, but when the stop timing is that the red 7 pattern cannot be drawn, “replay” is stopped in the left spinning cylinder 5a, and the middle spinning cylinder 5b “Bell A” stops, and “upper / cherry” stops on the right cylinder 5c. That is, when the red 7 symbol cannot be drawn in all the cylinders, “normal replay” is won as a missed 7 replay. In the case of the present embodiment, with respect to the pressing order for winning “7 replays”, different pressing orders are assigned to each effect replay (see the “push order” column in FIG. 5B).

  Since “7 replays” is a combination of symbols with the impact of “seven red symbols,” the above renditions are particularly effective as “replay designs for productions (winning designs for special productions)”. The effects produced by the replay symbol for use will be described in detail in first to sixth notification forms (FIGS. 14A, 16A, 16B, 16D, 17B, etc.) to be described later. It is used when notifying information about the number of ART games that are concealed internally. However, in the case of this embodiment, in order to win 7 replays due to the fact that the drawing rate of the component symbols of 7 replays is less than 100% and that there are only “1 line” in the effective winning line, Requires a pressing technique. Therefore, when the red 7 symbol can be drawn on the pseudo winning line, the winning combination of the production replay may be determined so as to be pulled into the pseudo winning line and stop the “red 7 symbol alignment” (in 7 repeat fake described later). The same applies to the case where the “7-lip hearing loss” is established on the pseudo pay line). However, when “red 7 symbol set” is configured to be able to stop on the pseudo pay line, the combination of symbols stopped on the effective pay line (true winning combination) is established on the pseudo pay line “red 7 It is preferable to display an image showing a true winning combination in a predetermined display area (for example, the right corner) of the liquid crystal screen 6a so as to prevent the player from misidentifying that “the pattern is aligned” (seven-listen hearing loss is simulated) The same applies to the case of deriving on the winning line).

(7 Lip Fake)
The “7 Lip Fake”, like 7 Replay, is awarded in the same order of pushing and at a specific stop operation timing. In the case of the production replay 123, if the stop operation is performed at the stop operation timing at which 7 symbols can be drawn in on the condition that the “right middle left” is pressed, the red 7 The symbol is drawn (similar to the 7 replay stop control mode described above, it may be drawn on the pseudo winning line), and the stop eye is "Red 7"-"↓↓ (Rotating)"-"Red 7" However, at the time of the third stop, the red 7 symbol set (7 replays) is not established on any line, and the 7th replay is lost, for example, “red “7 Lip hearing loss” such as “7”-“Cherry”-“Red 7” is stopped. In other words, 7 Lip Fake works as “Replay Design for Fake Production (Normal Design Winning Design)” for deriving and displaying “7 Lip Hearing Loss” and earning 7-play play expectation. If the pressing order matches but the stop operation timing does not match, the component pattern of the normal replay is drawn on the effective pay line as in the case of the 7 replays described above.

(When the order of pressing “7 Replay” and “7 Lip Fake” does not match)
In addition, when the production replay is won, when the “7 replay” and “7 rip fake” do not match the pressing order (in the case of the production replay 123, “7 left re-middle”, “7 rip fake” “right left” The “normal replay” stops on the effective pay line regardless of the pressing order other than “medium” (see the column of the effect replay 123 in FIG. 5B) and the stop operation timing.

(Chance replay: lottery number 22)
Next, “chance replay” of lottery number 22 will be described.

  The symbol combinations that are allowed to win by winning the chance replay are “replay”-“bell A”-“watermelon A / watermelon B / red 7” symbol combinations (chance replay). This chance replay belongs to “Push order unrequired role (Push order unrequired re-playing role)” and, like normal replay A, does not require a stop operation timing for winning a corresponding symbol combination. When the chance replay wins, “replay” is awarded as a payout. In addition, the chance replay functions as an “AT lottery trigger” that triggers execution of an AT lottery (FIG. 20) described below under predetermined conditions. Further, in the case of RT3, the chance replay is changed to a role having the lowest internal winning probability among all the lottery target characters and functions as a premium role.

(Weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry: lottery numbers 23-26)
Next, with reference to FIG. 5B and FIG. 5C, the small role type (lottery numbers 23 to 40) will be described. First, “weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry” having lottery numbers 23 to 26 and “common bell A, common bell B” having lottery numbers 27 to 28 will be described.

  Weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, and strong cherry are common bell A and common bell B belong to “Push order unquestionable role (push order unquestionable small role)” respectively. Which symbol combination is to be stopped on the effective pay line is determined based on the stop operation timing because of the pull-in control. However, in the case of a specific stop operation timing, any combination of the illustrated symbols is not won, and “missing” occurs.

  Regarding the above-mentioned payouts, the weak watermelon or strong watermelon is “4 game medals”, the weak cherry or strong cherry is “2 game medals”, and the common bell A or common bell B is “9 game medals”. ing. In addition, “weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry” with lottery numbers 23 to 26 serve as “AT lottery opportunity” described later.

(Push order bell type: lottery numbers 29-40)
Next, with reference to FIG. 5C, the “push order bell type” of the lottery numbers 29 to 40 will be described.

  The push order bell type is a lottery target role belonging to “push order prescribed role (push order prescribed small role)”. In the case of a predetermined push order, the same payout as the above common bells A and B as an advantageous winning combination If nine “middle bells” are stopped (winning) and the order is different from the pushing order, “1 bell” or “1 bell” will be used as a disadvantageous winning combination. When the withdrawal is not possible, it is determined that the “one-bell overflow” (payout 0) in which no payout is obtained can be stopped. Hereinafter, “one bell” or “one bell overflow” on the disadvantaged winning side is abbreviated as “bell overflow (push order bell overflow)”. In the push order bell type, the push order in which the middle bell stops is referred to as “push order correct answer”, and the push order in which the bell overflow stops stops is referred to as “push order incorrect answer”.

  Each of the push order bells of the lottery numbers 29 to 40 described above is substantially the same except that the push order regarding the advantageous winning combination or the unfavorable winning combination is different. In order to avoid this, “push order bell 123A” of lottery number 29 will be described as a representative.

(About push order bell 123A)
The following is a specific description of the combination of symbols that are allowed to win by winning the push order bell 123A from the standpoint of stop control.

  As shown in FIG. 5C, when the push order bell 123A is won, in the case of “left middle right” which is the correct push order, nine “middle bells” of payouts are won, and other push orders are given. In the case of "wrong answer in pushing order", the "middle bell" is not won, and the stop control of the spinning cylinder is performed so that the following combination of symbols stops on the effective winning line.

  If the push order is “wrong push order answer”, the middle bell is missed and the above “bell overflow” is derived and displayed as a game result. Depending on the operating procedure, '1 bell A, 1 bell B, 1 bell E, 1 bell F, or 1 of 1 bell A to N having the combination of symbols shown in FIG. 5C (α). Any one of the bells I ′ (stop numbers 60, 61, 65, 66, 69) can stop (“push order incorrect answer stop number” relating to the push order bell 123A in FIG. 5C) and FIG. (Refer to the column “Incorrect order of push order” in (α)). However, if it is the stop operation timing at which “1 bell” cannot be withdrawn, one bell has been dropped out and “1 bell overflow (0 payouts)” stops. Therefore, the push order bell 123A, by winning, the role allowing the middle bell, the role allowing the single bell A, the role allowing the single bell B, and the one bell E winning. It can be said that it has a property as a “duplicate combination” that can be won in duplicate for a combination that allows a winning of one bell F, a combination that allows a winning of one bell F, and a combination that allows a winning of one bell I.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in the figure, a plurality of types of push order bells are provided, and only one push order with a large payout is assigned to each push order bell, and other push orders (push order incorrect answer) The game medal with the smallest payout or the winning combination with no payout is stopped. Among the push order bells (lottery numbers 29 to 40), the push order bell group A (lottery numbers 29, 31, 33) indicated by “push order bell *** A ′” (where “*” is an Arabic numeral in the drawing). , 35, 37, 39) or push order bell group B (lottery numbers 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40) with the notation “push order bell *** B”, at least win the middle bell As for the pressing order, different pressing orders are assigned to each pressing order bell. As a result, even if the player arbitrarily stops the spinning cylinder, unless the player is in the AT game described later, the middle bell of the high payout side is not won with a high probability, and an unexpected profit in terms of design. It is prevented from being given to the player. In addition, although the said push order bell classification demonstrated that the combination of a different symbol was stopped according to a push order and stop operation timing, this invention is not restricted to this, It changes according to a push order and / or stop operation timing. You may comprise so that the combination of a symbol may be stopped.

The push order bell type works as an AT lottery trigger which will be described later. In the case of push order bell, AT lottery is executed only when the push order is correct.
(Special role: BB1, BB2)
Next, with reference to FIG. 5B, “BB1, BB2” of lottery numbers 41 to 42 will be described.

  BB1 and BB2 are lottery target roles belonging to “special role type”. This special combination is a lottery subject related to the first type special feature or the second type special feature. For example, by winning a combination of symbols (bonus combination) corresponding to the special combination, It is a role that triggers a transition to a gaming state (CB) in which the probability fluctuates with a high probability or a gaming state (CB) in which the number of pull-in frames of one or more drums is varied within one frame (stopped within 75 ms). In this respect, the character is different from the small role type and the replay role type that do not become a trigger for the transition to the gaming state.

  The combinations of symbols that are allowed to win by winning BB1 and BB2 are “Bell A (No. 4)”-“Upper bullet”-“Lower bullet” symbol combinations (BB1), “Upper bullet”-“Lower”, respectively. Bullet "-" Bell A (No. 0) "symbol combination (BB2). In the case of the present embodiment, a stop eye exhibiting a significant design is formed by using a specific continuous symbol (upper bullet / lower bullet symbol), and BB1 stops on the effective winning line Is displayed with the impact stop eyes (cannonball alignment) such that three bullet designs are displayed in a straight line. However, when BB2 stops on the effective winning line, the stop eye that BB1's “cannonball alignment” has collapsed (the right shell 5c has a “cannonball collapse” in which the “artillery pattern” has shifted one frame upward) Derived and displayed.

  When BB1 or BB2 wins, the next game is shifted to a bonus game advantageous to the player. During this bonus game, the winning probability of the common bell B (lottery number 28) fluctuates with a high probability, the average net increase per game is improved over other game states, and the player can play a large number of game medals in a short time. (See the column in BB of FIGS. 4A and 4B). In this embodiment, the performance of the bonus game is different between BB1 and BB2, and the profit level of the bonus game is set to be relatively higher in BB1 than in BB2. For example, BB1 ends with a first specified payout number (for example, 146), and BB2 ends with payout of game medals equal to or greater than a second specified payout number (for example, 72). ing.

(About carrying over special roles)
The above-mentioned special combinations BB1 and BB2 are defined as “carry-over combinations” whose internal winning flags (bonus winning flags) can be carried over to the next and subsequent games. For this reason, if the special combination (BB1, BB2) is won, the game period until the combination of symbols corresponding to the selected special combination wins (BB internal winning), the bonus winning flag is maintained, During this time, all BBs are excluded from the internal lottery. During the BB internal winning, the game shifts to “RT4 game” in which the winning probability of the replay role fluctuates with a higher probability than the normal game (see the bonus internal winning game column in FIG. 7).

  On the other hand, general role types (small role type and replay role type) other than the special role type are defined as “non-carry-over roles” in which the winning flag cannot be carried over to the next game. For the general role type, the internal lottery is executed as usual even during the BB internal winning, and if the winning is won, the internal winning flag is established. For this reason, there is an “overlapping winning state” in which the bonus winning flag and the internal winning flag of the general role are simultaneously established. In this case, the combination of symbols corresponding to which winning combination is determined according to Is determined based on the pull-in priority order. In the case of this embodiment, the priority order is “special role type (BB) <small role type <replay role type” (small role priority control). As a result, in the game in which the special role type (BB1, BB2) and the general role type are selected and won, the general role type wins preferentially.

  There are no particular restrictions on the winning combinations related to the lottery object winning combination, the corresponding winning winning combination, the dividend, and the type thereof as long as the object of the present invention can be achieved. For example, the special role type may be one or a plurality of types, or may be configured such that the special role type itself is not provided. As for the general role type, the type and the number of types are not particularly limited as long as the object of the present invention can be achieved.

<Game form: FIG. 7>
Next, with reference to FIG. 7, the game form (game nature) of the rotating type gaming machine according to the present embodiment will be described.

  In the swivel type gaming machine according to the present embodiment, RT games, AT games, bonus games, and the like are provided as gaming states. An RT game is a gaming state that is a base for determining a lottery target role (see FIGS. 4A and 4B), and an AT game is redundantly generated along with the RT game, and a “preparation” described later is performed. "ART game" and "this ART game" are realized. The RT game, AT game, and bonus game are in a game state (main control unit side game state) controlled on the main control unit 400 side, and the main control unit 400 is a functional unit that controls these game states. RT game control, AT game control means, and bonus game control means. On the side of the production control unit 410, a plurality of types of production modes (production states) corresponding to the above-described various main control unit side gaming states are managed and controlled. These performance modes are managed in a form that maintains consistency with the main control unit side gaming state.

(About RT (replay time) games)
The RT game refers to a re-game probability fluctuation state in which the winning probability (replay probability) of the replay role type accompanied by the re-game is changed from a predetermined probability of the reference game state. In this embodiment, a plurality of types of RT games such as RT0 games to RT4 games are provided. With regard to the RT0 game to the RT4 game, the RT0 game having the lowest replay probability is set to the above-mentioned reference game state, and the RT game 1 to RT game 4 in which the replay probability fluctuates with a high probability compared to the RT game 0 is reproduced as described above. Treat as a game probability variation state. RT game 1 to RT game 4 can be said to be “re-game high probability lottery state” because the replay probability is higher than the reference game state (RT0 game). In this embodiment, the relationship between the replay probabilities of each RT game is “RT0 game (low probability RT game) <RT1 game (low probability RT game) <RT4 game (medium probability RT game (BB internal winning)) < The relationship is “RT2 game <RT3 game (super high probability RT game)” (see FIGS. 7 and 4A). The RT0 game and the RT1 game, and the RT2 game and the RT3 game have substantially the same replay probability. Therefore, it is difficult for the player to detect the difference between the RT0 game and the RT1 game and the difference between the RT2 game and the RT3 game from the viewpoint of the appearance rate of the replay role.

  Each RT game is roughly classified into an RT game related to “BB internal winning (bonus carryover gaming state)” or an RT game related to non-BB internal winning (general gaming state). In the case of the present embodiment, the RT game in the general gaming state is RT0 game to RT3 game, and the RT game currently selected in the BB is RT4 game. The BB internal winning is a gaming state belonging to the general gaming state as in the non-BB internal winning, and this general gaming state is defined as a gaming state in which the internal lottery probability of the small role type cannot be changed. ing.

(About AT games)
The AT game means presentation means (sub-notification means) such as the liquid crystal display device 6, the decorative lamp 13, and the speaker 16 and / or display means controlled by the main control unit 400 (for example, a payout number display unit 35: main notification means). ) Is a “privilege gaming state” that can be notified by a predetermined notification mode (image display effect, sound effect, light effect, 7-segment display, etc.). “Information related to the lottery result of a role” means stop operation procedure information for guiding a winning combination of a specific symbol combination (including advantageous winning combination, unfavorable winning combination, and other specific symbol combinations) The notification mode that reports this information is referred to as “assist notification”.

(About assist notification)
In this embodiment, as already described, a plurality of types of push order defining combinations are provided. For example, in the push order bells of the lottery numbers 29 to 40, depending on the push order, a combination of symbols (advantageous winning combination) that can act advantageously can win, such as a middle bell of nine payouts. However, during non-AT games, even if these winning combinations are won, stop operation procedure information (pushing order information) for guiding winning winning combinations will not be notified to the player, or even if it is notified, It is not in the game, but is simply notified as a notice effect related to the winning combination. For this reason, during a non-AT game, the player cannot obtain a clue for winning an advantageous winning combination, and is placed in a situation where the winning is difficult. Therefore, during non-AT gaming, the game progress is more disadvantageous to the player than during AT gaming.

  On the other hand, during AT games, information for guiding the winning of the winning combination is notified with a high probability or 100% probability, and the winning becomes extremely easy. For example, when the push order bell 123A of the lottery number 29 is won, push order information (in this case, “left middle right” push order information) for guiding the winning of the “middle bell” on the side of the advantageous winning combination is a game. The person is informed. At this time, if the player stops the spinning cylinder according to the notification content, the middle bell can be easily won. Therefore, the game development is more advantageous to the player during the AT game than during the non-AT game.

(Assist notification mode)
Even if the same winning combination is determined, the content of the notification may differ depending on a predetermined notification condition. In other words, it is not necessarily the content that causes the player to win a specific symbol combination (for example, an advantageous winning combination). For example, when the production replay type is won, the assist notification (this notification) for “7 replay” is executed under the specific notification condition. Or the case which performs assist alerting (lie notification) for normal replay is given.

  In addition, the assist notification according to the present embodiment, as a rule, only presents stop operation procedure information (push order information) to the player and does not present the winning combination information. This is because if the winning combination is clearly indicated, the player who knows the allocation of the pushing order without notifying the pushing order will know the pushing order of the advantageous winning combination or the unfavorable winning combination, and the player intends This is because, by refusing the assist notification, an unexpected profit is obtained, or an unintended game state shifts, and the significance of generating the assist notification is lost. For example, only the push order content is different as the assist notification effect mode, and the effect mode itself is treated as the same or very similar mode. In this manner, at least the assist notification for concealing the winning combination information is referred to as “combination secret assist notification”. For example, the same effect mode as shown in FIG. 14A (2) is displayed when the effect replay 213 is won and when the push order bell 213A is won. As one aspect of this role concealment assist notification, information that can determine the winning role is not notified, but a notification mode that the role classification to which the winning role belongs is determined, such as a special role type, a small role type, or a replay role type (A role classification assist notification) may be displayed. For example, if the current winning role is a replay type, assist notification using characters / images based on “blue” is used, and if the winning order is a push order bell, characters / images based on “yellow” are used. The assist notification that was present can be displayed.

  Of course, if there is no problem in notifying the winning combination information, the winning combination information and the pressing order information may be displayed redundantly (type assist notification). For example, when “Production Replay 123” is won, the display of “Aim at 777!” And the display of the push order “123 (meaning order of left middle right)” may be displayed simultaneously or in a superimposed manner. Yes (see FIG. 14A described later). In this case, it is notified that the pressing order in which 7 replays are established is “left middle right”, which indirectly suggests that the winning combination type is “production replay 123”. However, depending on the notification conditions, the message “Aim at 777!” Is displayed, but assist notification (lie notification) for 7 rip-fake or normal replay can also be executed (fake role assist notification: described later) 14B).

  Further, the assist notification may be executed even in the case of an unquestionable push order. For example, when the common bell A or the common bell B is won, a predetermined pressing order may be notified. In any case, if the assist notification is generated, the game development can be advantageous to the player. Therefore, the player positively follows the content of the assist notification.

(About assist notification control)
The main control unit 400 (AT game control means) includes at least a “non-AT game (normal notification state)” and an “advantage notification state (AT game)” that can act more advantageously on the player than the non-AT game. A plurality of types of notification states can be controlled. The “AT game” is provided with a plurality of types of AT games including AT1 game to AT3 game. Depending on which AT game is generated, the winning combination or assist notification mode (assist notification mode) ( Notification content) may be different. In the present embodiment, by implementing a plurality of types of AT games and RT games, various gaming states shown in FIG. 7 to be described later are realized and the fun of the game is improved.

  Regarding the assist notification control, when the AT game is being played, the main control unit 400 transmits information capable of executing the assist notification to the effect control unit 410 based on the winning combination information related to the current game. For example, during a non-AT game, if any of the push order bells (winning numbers 27 to 40) wins, the winning combination information (non-specific information) that cannot specify which push order bell was won is displayed. While the production control command is transmitted to the production control unit 410, if the AT game is in progress, specific winning combination information corresponding to each push order bell, that is, which push order bell is won A command including possible winning combination information (identifiable information) is transmitted to the effect control unit 410. In this case, when the non-specific information is sent, the production control unit 410 cannot identify the winning push order bell, and therefore cannot perform the correct assist notification (notification of the middle bell winning procedure). When possible information is sent, correct assist notification can be made. Therefore, correct assist notification can be executed only during an AT game.

  When executing the assist notification, the main control unit 400 controls the display of the main notification means to execute the assist notification (main assist notification), and produces an effect control command (assist notification command) including the identifiable information described above. Transmit to the control unit 410. When the effect control unit 410 receives an assist notification command during an AT game, the effect control unit 410 acquires the content of the command and causes the assist means (sub-assist notification) to appear using the effect means. The contents of the sub-assist notification are contents reflecting the notification contents of the main assist notification in a staging manner.

  In addition, the effect control unit 410 changes the contents of the effect during assist notification in accordance with the stop operation of the spinning cylinder by the player. For example, when the spinning cylinder is stopped in a pressing order different from the assist notification content (in the case of a pressing order error), a warning effect that notifies that a pressing order error has occurred is displayed. Note that the pressing order in which the player has performed the stop operation is such that the main control unit 400 (stop operation order monitoring means) specifies the pressing order each time the stop button 12 is operated. “Stop order data” is created, and a “stop command” including the stop order data information is transmitted to the effect control unit 410. This stop command includes information that can specify the current number of stop laps, the rotator to be stopped, the current pressing order, and the like. The effect control unit 410 receives a “stop command” transmitted each time the stop button 12 is operated, thereby grasping the current push order and the current stop operation number. Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, the term “assist notification” will be described as meaning sub-assist notification unless otherwise specified.

(About gaming state)
Next, various game states according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 7 is a game state transition diagram showing an outline of the contents of the game state and a transition form between the game states. Here, in order to facilitate understanding of the present invention, first, an outline of transition control between each gaming state will be described. In the following, for convenience of explanation, a non-AT game that is not in the assist notification allowable state is referred to as “AT0 game”, and the player is described as following the assist notification.

  In the present embodiment, when the main RAM is cleared, when the setting is changed, or after the bonus game is finished, the initial game state is started from “initial game (RT0 game + AT0 game)”. This initial game is a non-AT game (AT0 game), and even if the winning order bell type (lottery number 27 to 40) with a relatively high probability is won, the “middle bell” assist on the side of the advantageous winning combination No notification (hereinafter abbreviated as “middle bell navigator”) is generated, and the bell overflow can be won with high probability (see FIGS. 4B and 5C). When the bell overflow is stopped (winning), the game state transitions and the current RT0 game is shifted to the RT1 game, and the game state captured as the entire gaming machine is “normal game (RT1 game + AT0 game)”. It is transferred to. In this way, the initial game is shifted to the normal game with a relatively short number of games. In the initial game, an AT lottery (FIG. 20) is executed. The AT lottery will be described later.

  After the transition to the normal game, as shown in the drawing, the transition to the initial game is not performed unless the bonus game is passed, and basically, the RT1 game to the RT3 game such as the normal game, the prepared ART game, and the main ART game are performed. Follow the game route that circulates the relevant game state. Since the initial game is a gaming state related to a “non-AT game” in which an AT game does not occur like a normal game, the initial game may be handled as one mode of the normal game. Further, it is not necessary to provide the initial game itself. In this case, the transition route to the initial game may be replaced with the transition route to the normal game.

  In the above-mentioned normal game, an AT lottery (FIG. 20) described later is executed in response to the winning of the AT lottery opportunity. If the AT lottery is won (AT win), the game establishment period (preparation ART transfer) from the next game to the AT win state (AT win flag established state) is assumed, assuming that the conditions for establishing the transition to the real ART game (pseudo bonus) described later are satisfied. Move to previous game. When this AT winning state is established, an “elevation lip notification condition” that allows the generation of the assist notification of the RT2 transition replay to the ART game transition and the assist notification of the RT3 transition replay is established. Therefore, during the AT winning state, it becomes an “advantageous section” in which the generation of assist notification is allowed.

  In the above AT winning state, when the RT2 transition lip type (lottery numbers 2 to 7) is won, the push order of the RT2 transition replay is assisted (hereinafter abbreviated as “RT2 transition replay navigation”), and the RT2 transition replay win is awarded. The opportunity is shifted to “preparation ART game (RT2 game + AT1 game)”. The replay probability fluctuates with a higher probability than the normal game (RT0 game). Note that since the RT2 transition lip type is a lottery target role for a normal game (RT1 game), the RT2 transition lip assist notification is executed only during the normal game.

  When the RT3 promotion lip type (lottery numbers 11 to 15) is won during the above-mentioned preparation ART game, an “RT3 promotion replay” assist notification (hereinafter abbreviated as “RT3 promotion replay navigation”) occurs, and RT3 promotion replay Upon winning the prize, the game is shifted to “real ART game (RT3 game + AT2 game)”. If the RT1 fall lip type (lottery numbers 8 to 10) is won during the preparatory ART game, a “normal replay” assist notification (hereinafter abbreviated as “normal replay navigator”) is generated and falls into the RT1 game. Migration can be avoided. In addition, when the win order bell type (lottery numbers 27 to 40) is won, “middle bell navigator” is generated. Thus, during the preparatory ART game, the game state can be shifted to the “real ART game” (pseudo bonus) without reducing the game medals as much as possible.

  During the above-mentioned ART game, as in the preparation ART game, “normal replay navigation” occurs when winning the RT1 fall lip type, “middle bell navigation” occurs when winning the push order bell type, and the replay probability is a prepared ART game. However, the winning probability of the RT1 falling lip type is lower than that of the prepared ART game. Therefore, the game state that is more advantageous to the player than the preparatory ART game, that is, the general game state is most advantageous to the player in that the possibility of falling to the RT1 game due to a push order error is relatively low. (For example, a net increase of about 2 per game). This ART game is basically continued until a predetermined number of continuous games (for example, 100G to 1200G) is consumed. Although details will be described later, the number of games in which the ART game state is maintained is not necessarily clearly notified to the player, and the actual number of continued games in the ART game is kept in a concealed state. When the notification condition is established, at least a part of the number of remaining games is suggested or notified in an effect.

  During the above-mentioned prepared ART game (RT2 game + AT1 game) or this ART game (RT3 game + AT2 game), the player does not follow the assist notification due to a push order error etc., and the fall trigger (fall fall replay, bell overflow) Is won, the current RT game falls to “RT1 game”. However, the AT game (AT1 game, AT2 game) that is in progress is not terminated just because the fall opportunity is won, and if it falls, the game state before the fall is set as a relief measure. A return game to return is executed. During this return game, the RT2 transition replay navigation and the RT3 promotion replay navigation are executed, so that even if the RT1 game falls, the game state before the fall can be transferred again. However, the number of games until returning to this ART game is subtracted from the number of continuing games as a penalty.

  Each gaming state will be described in detail. Here, “normal game”, “preparation ART game”, and “main ART game” which are closely related to the present invention will be described.

(Regarding normal games)
First, “normal game (RT0 game + AT0 game)” will be described.

  “Normal game (RT0 game + AT0 game)” is a game state related to “non-AT game” in which an AT game does not occur as in the case of the initial game, and has a replay probability substantially the same as that of the initial game. This normal game is in a gaming state with the longest stay period, and the player mainly enjoys the game with an interest in whether or not to win the “AT lottery” in this normal game. Yes. The AT lottery is executed using the “AT lottery table” shown in FIG. 20 when the main lottery unit 400 wins a specific lottery role (AT lottery opportunity).

(AT lottery table: FIG. 20)
FIG. 20 shows an AT lottery table according to this embodiment. In the AT lottery table, as shown in the figure, AT lottery probabilities corresponding to the gaming state and a specific winning combination type (AT lottery trigger) are determined. The numerical value (AT lottery value) shown in the cell in the figure is the number of occupied areas of the determination value (winning area) with respect to the lottery area size (65536), and “AT lottery value / lottery area size” Is the AT lottery probability.

  In the AT lottery according to the present embodiment, it is determined that the current game state has won the AT0 game state and the “AT lottery opportunity” listed in the column of the winning combination type shown in the drawing, It is said. In the case of the present embodiment, the AT lottery probability is set to a lottery probability according to a freeze effect type (not generated, S freeze, L freeze), which will be described later. In this case, first, a freeze effect lottery based on a “freeze effect lottery table” shown in FIG. 19 described later is executed, and an AT lottery is executed based on the freeze lottery result and the AT lottery table. . With regard to the AT lottery probability, the AT lottery is more likely to be won with a freeze effect (S freeze, L freeze) than with a freeze effect (no occurrence (non-execution)) without a freeze effect. Regarding the AT lottery, the AT lottery is executed only for the push order bell type of lottery numbers 29 to 40 when there is a correct answer in the push order, that is, a “middle bell” win. Only when the push order bell that can be won with a relatively high probability is the correct answer in the push order, the opportunity for the AT lottery is given.

  In the AT lottery, the AT lottery is preferentially given to a winning combination type having a low internal lottery probability or a freeze effect type having a low probability (winning an AT lottery with a high probability). However, there is an exception for a specific AT lottery opportunity (for example, strong cherry).

(Freeze production)
Next, the freeze effect will be described. In the present embodiment, based on a predetermined condition, the progress of the game related to the gaming machine is delayed from the normal progress of the game (for example, the predetermined game operation process is prevented from progressing for a predetermined freeze time). It is configured to be possible. This freeze state is mainly generated by controlling a delay state in which the progress of the game is delayed more than usual so that the predetermined game operation process does not proceed for a predetermined time. An effect that appears using the period of the freeze state is referred to as a “freeze effect”.

  For the freeze production, the “reel production (main side production during the freeze)” using a rotating drum and the “freezing production (for example, a decoration lamp, an LED for production, a liquid crystal display device, a speaker, etc.) Sub-direction during freezing) ”.

  The “reel effect (rotation effect)” means an effect that uses a dynamic or static movement of the reel during the freeze state, or a combination thereof. The “dynamic movement of the rotating cylinder” means “anomalous rotation operation (irregular rotation)” in which at least a part of all the rotating cylinders rotates in a predetermined operation pattern during the frozen state. Typical examples of irregular rotation include reverse rotation of the rotating cylinder, inching in the reverse direction, folding motion that rotates in the forward direction from the reverse direction and returns to the reverse direction, and each rotating cylinder is shifted in time and in the reverse direction. Anomalous start that starts rotating at low speed, low-speed forward rotation, etc. The “static movement of the rotating cylinder” means that all the rotating cylinders are in a stationary state during the frozen state, that is, “no rotation operation” in which the rotating cylinder is stationary during the frozen state. It should be noted that the quasi-stationary state, which can be perceived as being stationary, such as the entire rotating cylinder being slightly vibrated, is an irregular rotating operation in that the rotating cylinder is moving even slightly. It may be handled as one aspect, or may be handled as one aspect of a non-rotating operation as a pseudo stationary state.

  Also, the “freezing effect” means an effect using the effect means, not the reel effect by the rotating drum. This effect during freezing usually appears along with the reel effect, and an effect with an impact appears using at least one effect among the sound effect, the light effect, the image display effect, and the movable object effect. . For example, a shocking sound or an intense flash (flash effect), a blackout effect (for example, FIG. 15A (3) to be described later) for blacking out a liquid crystal screen, and a movable object act in a special pattern. A representative example is a production such as. However, just because the freeze state occurs, the effect during the freeze does not necessarily occur. Even if there is no effect during freezing, the occurrence of “reel effect” due to non-rotation operation or irregular rotation operation itself will give the player a sense of incongruity. Can do.

  In the present embodiment, as an example of the freeze state, “freeze at start of rotation of the rotating cylinder (freeze at lever-on)” is employed. This rotation at the start of rotation of the spinning cylinder is the next operation in the progress of the game triggered by detecting the original operation of the startup lever 11, that is, the operation of the startup lever 11 performed for the purpose of rotating and rotating the cylinder at normal times. The operation or process (start of normal rotation of the cylinder), which is the stage of, is delayed, and the timing to activate it is delayed by a predetermined freeze time, and as a result, the progress of the game is temporarily interrupted (freeze) Control. Therefore, the end of the freeze time is the end of the freeze at the start of the rotation of the rotating cylinder.

  In this embodiment, “freeze at the start of rotation of the rotating drum” is used, and “S freeze (short freeze)”, “L freeze (long freeze)”, “SP freeze (special freeze)”, “N freeze (normal freeze)” It is configured to generate a plurality of types of freeze effects.

  “S Freeze” is a freeze effect including a reel effect (anomalous rotation reel effect) by an irregular rotation operation at a predetermined freeze time FSt after the start lever 11 is operated. In addition, “L Freeze” includes “anomalous rotation reel effect” as well as “S Freeze” described above, but the freeze time and reel effect related to S Freeze are different. For example, S freeze is “freeze time 1 second, reel effect that vibrates up and down the reel”, and L freeze is “freeze time 2 seconds, reel effect that reverses the spinner one frame”, and the like.

  The “SP freeze” is a freeze effect including a reel effect by an irregular rotation operation at a predetermined freeze time SPt after the start lever 11 is operated, but the reel is more flashy than the reel effect related to the S freeze or the L freeze. Production is to be executed. In the case of this embodiment, 'SP1 freeze' that temporarily stops “single 7 symbol alignment” on a predetermined line by reel production (for example, FIG. 16C described later), and “double 7 symbol alignment” on a predetermined line. “SP2 freeze” (for example, FIG. 15B described later) to be temporarily stopped is included. Regarding the freeze time SPt, the SP1 freeze is 7 seconds, and the SP2 freeze is 14 seconds longer than the SP1 freeze.

  In the reel effect related to the “SP1 freeze”, first, all the cylinders are kept stationary for a predetermined time (for example, 1 second for a short time) (first stage operation), and then, as an irregular rotation operation, After performing a specified amount of rotation for the specified amount of time (second stage operation), rotating the right turn cylinder in the opposite direction and the middle turn cylinder in the same rotation direction as normal, move the “7 designs” of each turn cylinder to the left turn cylinder. → In the order of “Right Cylinder → Middle Cylinder”, temporarily stop on a predetermined line (for example, on the middle horizontal line), temporarily display “7-pattern alignment” with impact, and specify the temporary stop state. The reel production mode is such that the time (in the present embodiment, until the freeze time ends) is held (third stage operation). To put it simply, the flow is “All-round cylinder stationary state during lever operation (stop operation acceptance invalid state) → irregular rotation (temporary stop with 7 symbols aligned) → normal rotation after stop freeze (stop operation acceptance acceptable state)” Reel production is developed.

  In the reel production related to the “SP2 freeze”, all the drums are first kept stationary for a predetermined time (for example, 6 seconds) (first stage operation), and then the same irregular rotation as the second stage operation of the SP1 freeze. After performing the operation (second stage operation), the “7 symbols” of each cylinder are placed in the order of “left cylinder → right cylinder → middle cylinder” in the order of the first and second lines (downward right line). And “X” line formed by the left descending line) are temporarily stopped, and “double 7 symbol alignment” having a stronger impact than “single 7 symbol alignment” is temporarily stopped and displayed. The reel effect mode is such that time (in the present embodiment, until the freeze time ends) and hold (third stage operation). To put it simply, the SP2 freeze is: “All the cylinders are stationary at the time of lever operation (stop operation acceptance disabled state) → Anomalous rotation (temporary stop with double 7 symbols aligned) → Normal rotation (stop operation acceptance allowable state after freeze) ) ”Will produce reel production.

  “N freeze” refers to a freeze effect that does not include a reel effect due to an irregular rotation operation, that is, a predetermined rotation time Nt (for example, 8 seconds) after the start lever 11 is operated. It has become. In any freeze effect, effects during freeze corresponding to each freeze effect can appear.

(Role of SP Freeze and N Freeze)
The above-mentioned “SP freeze (SP1 freeze, SP2 freeze)” and “N freeze” are not subject to the freeze effect lottery (FIG. 19) described later, nor are the freeze effects related to the AT lottery (FIG. 20). . In this respect, it is greatly different from “S Freeze” and “L Freeze” related to Freeze Production lottery and AT lottery. As will be described in detail later, “SP Freeze” and “N Freeze” occur at the start of a predetermined number of games (freeze execution game) after the start of this ART game. This is used as an effect for notifying predetermined game information related to a game (e.g., additional game number information, set continuation / non-continuation information, continuation set number information). Therefore, the SP freeze and the N freeze are freeze effects that are forcibly generated in the game without depending on the internal lottery result in the scheduled freeze execution game.

  The “freeze state” is not limited to “freeze at start of rotation of the rotating cylinder (freeze when lever is turned on)” that delays the normal rotation starting operation of the rotating cylinder, and any stop button 12 ( “Freeze at stop operation” after a stop operation of at least one of the stop buttons 12a, 12b, and 12c), or a freeze state for a predetermined freeze time after all cylinder stops “Freeze after stopping all cylinders” may be adopted. Further, a combination of one or more of these freezes may be employed. When “stop operation freeze”, “freeze after all cylinder stops” or the like is adopted, a freeze effect that can be adapted to second to sixth notification modes described later may be configured to be executable.

(Freeze production lottery)
Among the above-mentioned freeze effects, whether or not S freeze and L freeze are generated is determined based on the “freeze effect lottery”. The freeze effect lottery is executed on the main control unit 400 side using a “freeze effect lottery table” shown in FIG.

(Freeze production lottery table: Fig. 19)
FIG. 19 shows a freeze effect lottery table according to the present embodiment. As described above, since the lottery result by the freeze production lottery is used for the AT lottery, the freezing lottery conditions are the same as the AT lottery conditions and the same winnings as shown in the freeze lottery conditions column of FIG. It is a role type. When the AT lottery opportunity is won, the main control unit 400 executes the freeze effect lottery and sets the “free” effect that does not cause the freeze effect, “S Freeze” or “L Freeze”. Whether it is generated is determined by a lottery using a freeze effect lottery table. Then, the AT lottery is executed using the freeze effect lottery result and the “AT lottery table” shown in FIG. Further, when the AT lottery is won, the “ART game number lottery table” shown in FIG. 21 described later is used to perform “ART game number lottery” to determine the number of continued games related to the ART game.

  In the freeze production lottery table, basically, the winning role type having a lower internal lottery probability has a higher probability of occurrence of freeze production, and the lottery probability of L freeze is higher than that of S freeze. However, in the case of this embodiment, an exception is provided for a specific AT lottery opportunity (see, for example, the strong cherry column). The numerical value shown in the cell in the figure is the number of occupied areas of the judgment value (winning area) with respect to the size of the lottery area (65536), and the “judgment value / size of the lottery area” Occurrence probability, S freeze, L freeze). Note that the AT lottery opportunity type, freeze effect lottery opportunity type, AT lottery probability, and freeze effect lottery probability are not particularly limited, and can be changed as appropriate according to game play.

(Determination of the number of continuing ART games (art game number lottery))
In the present embodiment, when the AT lottery is won, the number of ART game continuing games (hereinafter referred to as “ART game number”) is also determined in the winning game. The number of ART games is determined by 'ART game number lottery' using the “ART game number lottery table” shown in FIG.

(ART game number lottery table: FIG. 21)
FIG. 21 shows an ART game number lottery table according to the present embodiment. In the ART game number lottery table, as shown in the figure, the number of ART games (100G to 1200G) and the lottery probability are determined for each winning combination type (AT lottery trigger in this example). Yes. The numerical value (lottery value) shown in the cell in the figure is the number of occupied areas of the judgment value (winning area) with respect to the size of the lottery area (65536), and “judgment value / lottery area size” The lottery probability corresponds to the number of games. In this embodiment, the minimum guaranteed number of games is 100G.

  In the “ART game number lottery table” shown in FIG. 21, the number of games subject to the lottery is “100, 200G, 300G,..., 1100G, 1200G” and the number of games (separated game number) divided every 100G. This is a target, but this is representatively shown as an example for simplifying the description of the present embodiment, and of course, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the number of separated games may be a lottery target for any number of games, such as every 1G, every 5G, every 10G, and the like, as long as the object of the present invention can be achieved. The number of games that are regularly arranged in a row may not be a lottery target, but a plurality of types of games determined at random may be a lottery target. In addition, the number of lottery target games corresponding to the winning combination type and how to determine the lottery probability can be appropriately determined according to game play.

(Games before preparation ART transition)
When the AT lottery is won, a “pseudo bonus winning notification effect” for notifying that the right to transition to the ART game has been acquired is executed. Further, as already explained, when the AT lottery is won, the AT winning state is entered and the AT1 game is generated, and the gaming state is shifted to the “game before transition to preparatory ART (RT1 game + AT1 game)”. If the RT2 transition lip type is won in this pre-art transition game, an “RT2 transition replay navigation” is generated by the action of the AT1 game, and if the player performs a stop operation in accordance with the assist notification, the RT2 transition replay is won. Then, the RT gaming state is promoted to the RT2 game from the current RT1 game. As a result, the gaming state (AT gaming state + RT gaming state) is shifted from the current “prepared ART transition game (RT1 game + AT1 game)” to “preparation ART game (RT2 game + AT1 game)”.

  In addition, during the game before the preparation ART shift, when the push order bell type (lottery numbers 27 to 40) is won, “middle bell navigation” is also generated. As a result, during the period from the occurrence of the AT winning state to the winning of the RT2 transition lip type, it is possible to shift to “prepared ART game” without reducing game medals as much as possible. However, when the “RT2 transition replay navigation” occurs, the player intentionally avoids the RT2 transition replay winning and intentionally extends the game by winning the normal replay, In other words, there is a risk that technical intervention elements such as waiting for “middle bell navigator” and acquiring profits by acquiring the middle bell will be born. Therefore, the assist notification here only informs the pressing order, reveals the “confidentiality assistance notification” that does not notify the winning combination information, and whether the pressing order bell type is won or the RT2 transition lip type is It is supposed to keep secret whether it was won or not. In addition, since the loss probability is set high under RT1 game, the net increase in the number of game medals per unit game is negative when the player's intentional obeying the assist notification is combined with the loss probability and the above secret / assist assist notification. It comes to lean to. As a result, the above-mentioned technical intervention elements are made meaningless. In the game before the transition to the preparatory ART, when the pushing order not following the assist notification is executed (the pushing order operation error at the time of assist), the AT1 game may be forcibly terminated assuming that the termination condition is satisfied. As the end condition, for example, in the current AT1 game, when the number of times that the assist notification is not followed reaches a predetermined number of times (for example, a total of three push order mistakes), or the assist notification continues for a predetermined number of times. The case where it did not follow (for example, 3 consecutive mistakes) is mentioned. The end condition as described above can be applied not only to the pre-preparation ART transition game but also to other game states involving AT game (for example, the preparatory ART game or the main ART game).

(First Promotion Normal Game)
As described above, the “AT1 game” occurs on the condition that the AT lottery is won, and the “RT2 transition replay navigation” is not executed unless the AT lottery is won. Therefore, the gaming state until winning the AT lottery basically stays in the “normal game (RT1 game + AT0 game)”. However, even during the normal game, when the RT2 transition lip type is won, the RT2 transition replay may be won by the player's arbitrary stop operation, and the RT1 game may be promoted to the RT2 game. However, in this case, it is assumed that the game has been promoted to “AT lottery not won” and no AT game is generated (not “prepared ART game (RT2 game + AT1 game)”), the game state is “RT2 game” The “first promoted normal game” is called “+ AT0 game”. Since this “first promotion normal game” is under RT2 game, the RT3 promotion lip type and RT1 fall lip type that allow the “fall fall replay” win, and the push order that allows the “bell overflow” win Many combinations of bell types are targeted for lottery, and any of these combinations is selected with high probability (see FIGS. 4A and 4B). Even if these winning combinations are won, the push order to avoid the fall replay and the bell overflow is not notified. Therefore, the game is re-transferred to the normal game with a relatively short number of games.

(Second promotion regular game)
In rare cases, the RT3 promotion replay wins by the player's arbitrary stop operation when the RT3 promotion lip type (lottery numbers 11 to 15) is won during the first promotion normal game, and the RT2 In some cases, the game is promoted to RT3 game. However, in this case as well, it is assumed that the game has been promoted to “when the AT lottery is not won” and no AT game is generated (not “this ART game (RT3 game + AT2 game)” described later), and the game state is “ The “second promoted normal game” is “RT3 game + AT0 game”. Since this second promoted normal game is under RT3 game, the RT1 falling lip type and RT3 promoted lip type are not eligible for the lottery as in RT2 game, but the push order that allows winning of the bell-overflow The bell type is a lottery subject, and the push order bell type is won with a relatively high probability (see FIGS. 4A and 4B). However, even if the push order bell type is won, the push order to avoid the “bell overflow” is not notified. Therefore, even if the game is shifted to the second promoted normal game, the game is re-transferred to the normal game with a relatively short number of games.

  In this way, even if the gaming state is the first promoted normal game or the second promoted normal game, if the AT lottery is not won, the RT1 game is easily dropped and returned to the normal game. . This prevents high-probability RT games such as RT2 games and RT3 games from continuing for a long number of games, and prevents the player from being given unexpected benefits due to the design of the gaming machine. .

  Even if the above-mentioned first and second promoted normal games are transferred, the AT lottery is executed if the AT lottery opportunity is won. In particular, in the case of the present embodiment, the AT lottery opportunity is determined as a common lottery target for RT1-3 games, and therefore, no penalty that adversely affects the player is provided. It is to be noted that these game states can be operated as a so-called “AT lottery high probability winning zone” by utilizing the short stay period of the first and second promoted normal games. For example, if the second promoted normal game related to the RT3 game is in progress, the replay type that is not subject to the internal lottery is added as an “AT lottery opportunity” in other RT games, and the AT lottery may be given preferential treatment over the normal game Good. As a result, the range of game play is widened, and the fun of the game can be improved. In contrast to the “AT lottery high probability winning zone”, the AT lottery may not be executed in the first and second promoted normal games, and the AT lottery probability is relatively lower than that in the normal game. You may comprise as follows.

(Preparation ART game)
Next, the “prepared ART game (RT2 game + AT1 game)” will be described.

  As described above, when the RT2 transition replay is won in the game before the preparation ART transition, the transition is made to the “preparation ART game (RT2 game + AT1 game)”. During this preparation ART game, due to the action of AT1 game, when RT3 promotion lip type is won, “RT3 promotion replay navigator” is selected, when RT1 fall lip type is won, “normal replay navigation” is selected, and when push order bell type is selected, “ "Middle bell navigator" occurs. When the RT3 promotion replay wins, the RT gaming state is promoted to transition from RT2 gaming to RT3 gaming, the AT gaming state is promoted to transition from AT1 gaming to AT2 gaming, and the gaming state is changed from the prepared ART game. Transition is made to “real ART game (RT3 game + AT2 game)”. As for assist notification during a preparatory ART game, the “privacy secrecy assist notification” is made to appear as in the case of the pre-preparation ART transition game and the case. For this reason, if the player does not follow the assist notification, the fall replay may win and suffer a disadvantage (it may fall to RT1 game), and the player will actively follow the assist notification.

(About this ART game)
Next, “this ART game (RT3 game + AT2 game)” will be described.

  During this ART game, due to the action of AT2 game, 'normal replay navigation' occurs when the RT1 fall lip type is won, and 'middle bell navigator' occurs when the push order bell type wins, avoiding falling to RT1 game However, this ART game can be continued. Although details will be described later, when the replay type is won, assist notification for winning 7 replays under predetermined notification conditions (hereinafter, assist notification for winning 7 replays is abbreviated as “7 Lip Navi”). Will occur.

(About the number of ART games)
As described above, the number of ART games according to the present embodiment is determined by lottery through the “ART game number lottery (FIG. 21)” executed when the AT lottery is won. It has come to be. This number of ART games is set as the number of continuing games of this ART game, but after being determined by the ART game number lottery, the number of games does not fluctuate due to so-called “addition” or the like. As a rule, it is “fixed number of games”.

  Here, the reason for the above “in principle, the number of games is fixed” is that “the advantageous period (instruction function related to the instruction function) is that the assistance notification is allowed to be generated due to a legal request regarding the spinning-type game machine. When the result of a predetermined number of games (1500 times) is obtained, regardless of the state of operation of the instruction function, during RT, inside, or during operation of an accessory, etc. This is because (when 1500 games are ended), the advantageous section must be ended (initialization process). If a special combination (BB1, BB2) is won during the advantageous period, the number of games until winning the BB is not counted as an advantageous period because it is a waiting period, but the number of games during the bonus game is counted as an advantageous period.

  In the present embodiment, the “advantageous section” described above starts counting from the next game after the AT winning game. That is, the number of games required to shift from the “game before transition to preparatory ART”, which is an AT winning state during normal game, to “main ART game” is counted as this advantageous section. Specifically, if the AT lottery is won in the current game, the game will be pre-preparation ART transition from the next game, but it takes 10 games to transition from this pre-arrangement pre-game to preparatory ART game. If 15 games are required for the transition from the ART game to the ART game, a total of 25 games are counted as advantageous sections. Therefore, even if the number of ART games determined in the ART game number lottery (FIG. 21) is determined as “1500 games”, the actual number of ART games according to the number of digested games in the advantageous section May fluctuate (decrease). In the case described above, the actual number of ART games is 1475 (1500 games determined by the ART game lottery-25 advantageous zone digest games = 1475 games).

  During the ART game, if the upper limit of “1500 games” is reached after the transition to the advantageous section, the advantageous section is forcibly terminated even if the number of ART games determined by lottery remains. That is, the AT game (AT2 game) is forcibly terminated and the current ART game is shifted to the “second promoted normal game (RT3 + AT0 game)”. In this second promoted normal game, no assist notification is generated. Therefore, a fall transition trigger (RT1 fall replay or bell overflow) wins and the game state is changed to “normal game (RT1 + AT0 game)”. Will be migrated. Hereinafter, the number of games (1500 games) for which this advantageous section is forcibly terminated is abbreviated as “number of restricted games”.

  By the way, the number of “ART games” lottered together at the time of winning the AT may be counted as the number of games in the advantageous section. In the case where “25G” is required before the transition to, the number of ART games related to the start of this ART game starts from “75G”. In other words, as the number of games required for the transition to the ART game increases, the number of the ART games further decreases, and in an extremely rare case, even if winning the AT lottery, the transition to the ART game is not made. In some cases, the process ends. In any case, every time an AT lottery is won, the game will start with a smaller number of games than the determined number of ART games, or the number of ART games will fluctuate every time. Invite distrust to the game machine. Therefore, it can be said that it is preferable to provide a gaming machine that can give a player the determined number of ART games as much as possible while satisfying legal requirements. Specifically, even if the maximum number of ART games is selected by the ART game number lottery, the number of games can be digested as much as possible without reaching the number of restricted games (1500G).

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the maximum number of games drawn in the ART game number lottery is determined to be at least less than the number of restricted games. Specifically, if the number of games N required for the transition from the AT winning game to the ART game is the restricted game number X and the maximum game number Y, the difference between the restricted game number X and the maximum game number Y ( In this example, the lottery probability of promotion replay (RT2 transition lip type, RT3 transition lip type) is determined so as not to exceed the regulated game number X (1500G) −maximum game number Y (1200G) = 300G). Specifically, as the lottery probability of promotion replay, the winning probability of RT2 transition lip type (RT1 game → promotion replay to RT2 game) is “6594/65536 (about 1 / 9.9)”, and RT3 transition lip type (RT2 The winning probability of “game → promotion to RT3 game” is set to “13355/65536 (about 1 / 4.9)”, and this ART game is almost 100% within about 150 games (number of games N) after winning AT. Has been moved to. That is, there is almost no case where the number of games from the next game after winning the AT to the transition to the present ART game exceeds 300 games (game number difference M).

  In the present embodiment, in order to control the ART game while satisfying legal requirements regarding the regulated game, an “advantageous interval counter” that counts the number of digested games in the advantageous interval and a “residual” counter that counts the number of remaining ART games. An “ART game number counter” and a “digested game number counter” for counting the number of digested games in the ART game are provided.

  As for the “advantageous section counter”, the number of restricted games “1500 games” is set in the AT winning game, while the “remaining ART game number counter” is triggered by this ART game transition (in this embodiment, The ART game number determined by the ART game number lottery is set as the default game number in response to the winning of the RT3 promotion replay during the preparatory ART game. The value of the “advantageous section counter” of the former is decremented by 1 every time one game is consumed from the next game of the AT winning game. (In this embodiment, after the RT3 promotion replay winning game, 1 is subtracted every time one game is consumed) and at least one of the “advantageous section counter” and the “remaining ART game number counter” is zero. In this game, the function related to the AT game is reset, and this ART game is forcibly terminated. In this way, since the number of ART games is counted independently of the advantageous section, the number of both games can be managed. For example, according to the number of digested games in the advantageous section or the number of digested games in the ART game It is possible to control the appearance of the effects (for example, freeze effects, assist notifications, various effects according to first to sixth notification modes to be described later) with relatively simple control based on each counter.

  Note that, in the rotary type gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the maximum ART game number determined by the ART game number lottery is configured to be less than the regulated game number (1200G). Of course, the number may be set to 1500G, which is the number of restricted games.

(Art game number notification mode)
In the present embodiment, as described above, the number of ART games is a “fixed number of games” that does not vary due to the addition. Such a “fixed number of games” has the advantage that it is easy to meet legal requirements because the number of games does not change due to the extra game number lottery or the like. On the other hand, however, if the number of ART games is fixed, if the number of remaining ART games is informed indefinitely, there is no change in the number of games due to the extra game lottery as in the prior art. There is a risk that the actual ART game will become monotonous because it is just a digestive game. Therefore, how to notify the number of ART games is an important factor for improving the fun of the game.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, at the start of the ART game, the number of ART games (the number of games determined by the ART game lottery) is kept in a concealed state, and the player knows how many games the ART game will continue. If the predetermined notification condition is satisfied while giving the player a feeling of continuation expectation of this ART game, information on the remaining number of ART games (the number of remaining ART games) is suggested or implied, or It has a configuration capable of notification (disclosure). That is, when a predetermined notification condition is satisfied, a part or all of the true remaining ART game number (internal remaining ART game number) in the concealed state can be notified (disclosed) (the concealment game). Number notification control means). This improves the fun of this ART game by giving the player an estimation element of the number of remaining ART games while the number of games is fixed.

  Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 8A to FIG. 28, notification forms 1 to 6 (first embodiment to sixth embodiment) of the number of ART games according to the present invention will be described in detail. In the specific examples according to each notification form shown in FIGS. 8A to 13, in order to facilitate understanding of each notification form, a normal game (RT1 + AT0 game) is won an AT lottery (“ART winning” shown in the figure). An example of a case that has entered the ART game will be described.

  In addition, in order to simplify the explanation, the number of games required to enter the ART game from the normal game (AT winning game) (the number of digested games before reaching ART) is ignored, and the “ART game number lottery” It is assumed that the number of ART games determined in the above is the number of games at the start of this ART game as it is. In other words, this ART game is started from the next game after the game won in the AT lottery. At the start of this ART game, a predetermined number of remaining ART games is publicly notified. The number of remaining ART games released at the start of this ART game is the number of continuing games that guarantees the minimum amount of this ART game, and is the minimum number of games for the ART game number lottery target game number of 100G.

[First Notification Form (First Embodiment)]
(A-1. Additional notification type: FIGS. 8A to 8C and FIGS. 14A to 14B)
With reference to FIG. 8A-FIG. 8C and FIG. 14A-FIG. 14B, the "add-on notification type" of the 1st notification form (1st Embodiment) of the number of ART games which concerns on this embodiment is demonstrated in detail.

  In short, this additional notification type is a revolving type equipped with an “additional lottery function” for adding the number of additional games determined by an additional game number lottery, etc., to the number of ART games, which is conventionally known. A game machine (for example, refer to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2015-213581 (for example, FIG. 29)) is reproduced in a pseudo manner. In this respect, this example is referred to as “add-on notification type”.

(A-2. Overview of the extra notification type)
In order to facilitate the understanding of the above “add-on notification type”, an outline thereof will be described first.

  In the additional notification type according to the present embodiment, at the start of this ART game, 100G of the guaranteed game number is disclosed, but the internal true ART game number (number of games by the ART game lottery) is notified to the player as a secret state. do not do. In the case of this example, the number of games played before reaching ART is ignored, so the number of ART games determined by this ART game number lottery is handled as the true number of ART games (second to sixth notifications described later). The same applies to the form).

  However, if a specific notification condition is satisfied, a part or all of the remaining residual ART game is notified (disclosed). Specifically, when a specific combination (additional notification opportunity) is won for a specific number of games in this ART game, a “pseudo addition effect (hereinafter referred to as“ pseudo addition effect ”) as if it was added by an additional lottery. (Refer to FIG. 14A (3) described later)) ”, and the number of remaining ART games currently disclosed, which is made clear to the player (the number of remaining ART games on the effect display (“ after-mentioned “ Residual ART game that is currently hidden and behaves as if a predetermined number of games have been added to the value of the remaining game number notification effect 6c (see FIG. 14A) ”). This “uplifting notification opportunity” is a pseudo-simulation of an additional lottery triggering role in a conventional spinning-type game machine equipped with an “uplifting lottery function”. Extra For example, a production replay type (winning number 16 to 21), weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, etc. can be used as an additional notification opportunity role. It is preferable to adopt the “production replay type” that wins with a higher probability than the other roles because the winning notification opportunity combination is the execution condition of the pseudo addition production. Depending on the combination of the high-impact design of “Red 7 Symbols Matching” and the normal order of replays, it is determined that the replay can be displayed. Can be concealed or notified, so that it can be said that it is a suitable lottery target combination as an additional notification trigger.

  Here, a characteristic point of the “add-on notification type” is that the number of games in which the pseudo-addition effect is generated is scheduled. Specifically, at the start of this ART game (which may be at the time of AT lottery (the same applies to each notification form described later)), at what game number (one or a plurality of games) in this ART game , “Direction scenario” in this ART game regarding “pseudo addition effect (which may include a later-described pseudo add-on effect)” that determines what number of extra games will be notified in what role is won Is done. That is, the ART game according to the present embodiment is a “ready race type” (fixed race type) in which the number of ART games is fixed, and is also a “finished race type” in terms of production. Yes.

  The number of appearances of the pseudo-addition effect can be determined one or more times in consideration of the number of ART games. However, the number of pseudo-addition effects can be executed a plurality of times for a relatively large number of ART games. preferable. This is because, when the number of ART games is a relatively long game period (for example, 500G or more), it is more than one time to notify all the number of true ART games in a single pseudo-addition effect. This is because it is preferable that the information is added and notified separately in order to make the production during the ART game monotonous and to increase the player's sense of continuity.

  Regarding the determination of the above-mentioned production scenario, when the number of games at the start of the ART game (in this example, the number of ART games determined by the ART game number lottery) is “500G”, for example, when the ART game starts. It is determined that “pseudo addition effect” is executed for one or a plurality of specific game numbers as an effect scenario (which may be at the time of winning the AT lottery). For example, it is determined that the “pseudo addition effect” is executed on the condition that an additional notification trigger (for example, an effect replay type) is won in “99G, 150G, 299G, and 399G” (for example, FIG. 14A described later). reference). The “execution scheduled game” scheduled to execute the pseudo-addition effect is hereinafter referred to as “addition notification game”.

  In this production scenario, even if the number of ART games is the same, a number of production scenarios are prepared so that the game in which the pseudo-addition production is generated becomes various (random) cases. A production scenario is selectively determined by lottery or the like. In order to avoid duplicate descriptions, explanations of other examples are omitted, but the above example is merely an example of an effect scenario, and there are many effect scenarios with different games where pseudo-addition effects occur. Yes.

  In addition, in consideration of the game number of the additional notification game, the number of occurrences of the additional game, etc., the content of the production “how many additional games (the number of additional games to be added) to be notified in each pseudo additional production” is determined. And incorporated into the above-mentioned production scenario. However, when the “pseudo addition effect” is executed a plurality of times, it is determined so that the true number of ART games is notified in a plurality of times. For example, when the number of true ART games is 500G, when the “pseudo-addition effect” is executed four times in the '99G, 150G, 299G, and 399G's, It is determined to notify the pseudo added game number (pseudo added game number) so as not to exceed “400 G” excluding the initial notification of 100 G (guaranteed game number). As an example, for example, “100G” in the 99G pseudo-addition effect immediately before the end of the security game, “100G” in the 150G pseudo-addition effect, “100G” in the 299G pseudo-addition effect, and “399G” pseudo-addition effect Then, it is determined to notify the number of pseudo-addition games of “100G” (notification of the addition of a total of 400G). The 299Gth and 399Gth are the number of games immediately before the separation game.

  In the case of the present embodiment, in the additional notification game (for example, the 99th G), a pseudo additional effect is generated on the condition that the additional notification trigger (for example, the effect replay type) is won. That is, when an additional notification game arrives, whether or not a pseudo additional effect is generated is determined according to the winning combination of the game. In the present embodiment, the effect replay type is adopted as an additional notification trigger.

  When the replay type (additional notification trigger) is won in the additional notification game, first, “7 Lip Navi (this announcement)” is generated as a pseudo additional effect, and the “red 7 symbol set with impact is given to the player. (7 replay) "is stopped, and when the red 7 symbol set is derived and displayed, the liquid crystal screen 6a is informed of the fact that there has been a pseudo-addition (the number of pseudo-addition games) (described later). 14A (3)). Even if the player has failed to push and 7 replays have not been derived and displayed, a fact that there has been a pseudo-addition appears. However, except for the supervision notification game, even if the stage replay type is won, the normal notification '7 Lip Navi' is not generated, but the lie notification 'Normal Lip Navi (Normal Replay Assist Notification)' is performed. In other words, it is avoided that “red 7 symbol alignment (7 replays)” is derived (see FIG. 14A (2) described later). That is, the winning of the additional notification opportunity is concealed by lie notification. As a result, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of “red 7 symbol alignment (7 replays)” in the dark clouds, and to prevent the player from being excessively expected to generate the pseudo-addition effect (addition notification). (The same applies when effect replay is employed in other notification modes described later).

(A-2-1. About the case where the additional notification opportunity is not won in the additional notification game)
However, in the above “add-on notification game”, the effect replay type that is the additional notification trigger is not necessarily won. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when an additional notification trigger is not won in the additional notification game, a pseudo additional effect is forcibly generated at the “specific game after the next game”. Although details will be described later, when an event in which the pseudo-addition effect cannot be executed occurs in the scheduled number of games (addition notification game), the number of remaining ART games on the effect display (the “remaining game number notification effect 6c” described later). The value (see FIG. 14A (1)) ”) is at least“ zero ”before the game, and the“ pseudo addition effect ”is forcibly generated. This is because, even if the additional notification trigger is not won in the additional notification game and the pseudo additional effect does not occur, the number of remaining ART games (the value of the remaining game number notification effect 6c) on the effect display. ) Means that there is a possibility that a pseudo-addition effect will be generated until the game becomes zero. This gives the player a sense of continuation expectation and a sense of tension, and deepens the fun of the game. In addition, the matter regarding the case where the above-described pseudo-enhancement effect cannot be executed is a pseudo-addition in the other notification form (particularly the fourth notification form (combined notification type)) described later by winning the additional notification trigger. The same applies to the case where the production is presented.

  In accordance with the above-mentioned production scenario, if “100G” is notified in the 99G game, which is the first addition notification game, at this time, in addition to the remaining 1G, the additional 100G is notified, so at least another 101G (1G + additional remaining). 100G) is maintained (at least 200 games (continuation of guaranteed game number 100G + additional 100G)). Thereby, the player can know that the ART game can be continued further. After that, the second 150G is added “150G”, the third 299G is added “100G”, the fourth 399G is added “100G”, and at the 399G, at least another 101G Continuation (continuation up to at least 500 games) is guaranteed, that is, at least 500G ART games are guaranteed. Thereafter, if no pseudo-addition effect is generated, it is notified that the number of ART games at this time is 500G, and the present ART game is terminated when 500G is consumed. Thereby, the player knows that the current number of ART games was 500G.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the pseudo-addition effect (pseudo-addition notification) regarding the number of ART games appears at a specific number of games, and at least a part of the number of concealed ART games is made bright. When the number of concealed ART games is all bright, no further superimposition notification is generated. Further, in the present embodiment, the “effect replay” having a high production effect is added and used as a notification trigger, thereby enabling a pseudo addition notification with impact. In particular, if the game in which the production replay is won is a game other than the addition notification game, a “lie announcement” is performed to pretend to be a normal replay winner, and “red 7 symbol set” is derived and displayed in the dark cloud. In order to avoid this, the pseudo-addition notification is not excessively given to the player.

  In this embodiment, it is described that the number of games before reaching the ART is ignored, so the number of games before reaching the ART is not taken into account. The number of digest games before reaching ART is also taken into account when determining the additional limit value. In other words, the added range (additional limit value) NR is “the number of restricted games (1500 G) −the number of games played before reaching ART X (the number of variable games) −the number of guaranteed games Y (in this example, fixed 100 G) = the added range NR Thus, the added range and the actual number of continued games in the ART game vary depending on the value of the number X of games before reaching ART. Similarly, in the second to sixth notification modes described later, the actual number of continued games of the ART game may vary depending on the value X of the number of games before reaching ART.

(A-3. Specific examples of the extra notification type: FIGS. 8A to 8C, FIGS. 14A, and 14B)
A specific example of the extra notification type will be described with reference to FIGS. 8A to 8C, 14A, and 14B. 8A to 8C representatively show a case where 500G (specific example 1), 300G (specific example 2), and 100G (specific example 3) are determined by the ART game number lottery as an example of the extra notification type. It is a thing. FIG. 14A and FIG. 14B show an example of the production mode developed during the ART game, and are explanatory diagrams for explaining the “pseudo addition production”.

(Specific example 1: 500G case)
First, the case where the number of ART games is “500G” (specific example 1) will be described with reference to FIGS. 8A, 14A, and 14B.

  In this specific example 1, as described in “A-2. Overview of the additional notification type”, the number of ART games is “500G”, the effect replay type as the additional notification trigger, the additional notification game (occurrence of the pseudo additional effect) As an example, a scenario of a production scenario in which a total of four times (the number of additional games) of “99G, 150G, 299G, and 399G” is scheduled as “game” is shown. However, in the case of this example, the effect replay is not won at 299G (a case where an event in which the pseudo-addition effect cannot be executed occurs in the extra notification game), and the pseudo-addition effect occurs at the 300th game, which is the number of divided games. Shows the case to be. This “separated game number” takes into account that the number of games to be drawn in this ART game lottery is every 100G, and in this example, every 100G is referred to as a “separated game number”.

(0G: This ART start game)
When the main ART game is started, first, as an effect mode at the start of the main ART game, together with a light effect and a sound effect, the liquid crystal screen 6a displays a “game state notification effect 6y” for notifying the current game state, “Acquired number notification effect 6b” for notifying the acquired number (for example, a net increase number in this ART game), “Remaining game number notification effect 6c (internal ART game number ( (Real ART game number) is an effect that informs that at least the number of games currently displayed remains) ”,“ digestion game number notification effect 6d ”that informs the number of digested games during the ART game, An effect such as “story effect (character effect) 6e” having a story characteristic is displayed as an effect mode dedicated to the ART game. Among these effects, the display contents of the “acquired number notification effect 6b”, “remaining game number notification effect 6c”, and “digested game number notification effect 6d” may vary depending on the game progress. In addition, the contents of the effects of “character effect 6e” and “background effect (not shown)” may change depending on the game progress status. Specifically, the content of the effect changes according to the winning combination type, and the effect mode changes according to the number of digested games. The character effect 6e, the background effect, and the like are used as, for example, a specific small role winning (for example, weak / strong cherry or weak / strong watermelon) or a bonus effect (BB1, BB2) for predicting the effect (role type notification effect). Various characters appear depending on the game situation.

  In the case of this example, as shown in FIG. 14A (1), as the gaming state notification effect 6y, an information image of “the second type approaching encounter” indicating that the gaming state is in the present ART game, and the acquired number notification effect 6b The information image of “0 GET” with the current number of acquisitions of zero, and the remaining game number notification effect 6c indicating that there is at least 100G of remaining ART games “100 (here, the guaranteed game 100G is displayed as the number of open games) ) ”, A digested game number notification effect 6d is a“ 0 ”information image indicating 0G digestion, and a flying object (disc) that seems to be an extraterrestrial intelligent life form as a character effect 6e at the start of this ART. A character image (a disk-up image) representing the appearance of flying is displayed.

  Here, production control such as the “acquired number notification effect 6b”, “remaining game number notification effect 6c”, and “digested game number notification effect 6d”, which are closely related to the present invention, will be described. These effects are controlled by the following function units included in the effect control unit 410.

  The effect control unit 410 includes “acquired number effect control means” for controlling the appearance of the “acquired number notification effect 6b”. The acquired number effect control means is sent by a predetermined effect control command from the main control unit 400 (for example, a payout command transmitted for each payout number or a game start information command including internal lottery result information). Based on the game medal payout information (including automatic insertion information by re-game) and the internal lottery result information (winning combination information), the current acquired number is counted and the display value of the acquired number notification effect 6b is controlled.

  The effect control unit 410 also includes an “ART game number command” that can specify the number of ART games determined in the ART game number lottery among the effect control commands sent from the main control unit 400, the remaining ART game number (remaining number of remaining games) “Remaining ART Game Number Command” that can specify the ART game number counter information), “Digested Game Number Command” that can specify the number of digested games (digested game number counter information), and game start information including internal lottery result information “Sub-side residual ART game number counter” that can manage the number of remaining ART games using information included in commands such as “game start information command” that can be performed, and “sub-side that can manage the number of digested games” Digestion game number counter ”.

  In addition, the effect control unit 410 includes “residual game number notification control means” that controls the appearance of the “remaining game number notification effect 6c”. The remaining game number notification control means controls the display value of the remaining game number notification effect 6c based on the sub-side remaining ART game number counter value. The remaining game number notification control means conceals the number of ART games determined by the ART game number lottery, and the number of games for the guaranteed number of games in the start game controlled by the ART game is displayed as a public game of the ART game. “Public game number notification control means” for notification as a number (100G of guaranteed game) is included.

  The effect control unit 410 includes “digested game number notification control means” for controlling the appearance of the “digested game number notification effect 6d”. The digest game number notification control means controls the display value of the digest game number notification effect 6d based on the sub-side digest game number counter. The above-mentioned “sub-side residual ART game number counter” and “sub-side digest game number counter” are not limited to the display control of the remaining game number notification effect 6c and the digest game number notification effect 6d, and the remaining ART game number information and It is also used when other effects that require digested game number information appear.

(Eighty-eighth G: just before the additional notification game)
Thereafter, 97G is digested (not shown), and the game progresses to the 98th G (before the additional notification game 1G) in FIG. 14A (2). In the 98th G, as shown in the figure, as the acquired number notification effect 6b, an information image of “197 GET” indicating that the current acquired number is 100, and as the remaining game number notification effect 6c, at least the remaining ART game is “ As the information image “2” indicating that “2G” exists and the digested game number notification effect 6d, an information image “98” indicating that the current number of digested games is 98G, and the like are displayed. The character effect 6e displays a character image representing a strange light beam being emitted from the disk as part of the story effect during the ART game. The character effect 6e of this game is a sign effect (notice game sign effect) that suggests that an additional notification game or a separation game is approaching, for example, one or more games before the additional notification game (99G eyes) (For example, 96G before 3 games), and this indication effect can be executed across a plurality of games of 96G to 98G. In addition, this indication effect is not necessarily displayed for the additional notification game, but is targeted for a number of games unrelated to the additional notification game, or a notification game (gase For example), in this case, the content of the indication effect can indicate the degree of expectation as to whether or not a pseudo addition effect will occur. Such an indication effect can be applied to notification games according to second to sixth notification modes described later.

  In addition, at the 98th G, an assist notification 6f for assisting a predetermined pressing order appears. The illustrated assist notification 6f is a role concealment assist notification for concealing the winning role type, and exemplifies a case where “effect replay 213” is won among the effect replay types. However, since the 98th G is not an additional notification game, the assist notification 6f is not a push order “213 (middle right / left)” (this announcement) in which 7 replays are established, but a normal replay (7) For example, a push order in which “312 (middle right-left order)” (lie notification)) is established is notified (the push order in which 7 rip-fake is established may be used as the lie notice).

(99G: Add-on notification game (first time))
The progress of the game moves to FIG. 14A (3), and in the 99Gth, which is an additional notification game, the “effect replay 123” is won among the effect replay types, and the “pseudo additional effect” is shown. . In the following, the contents of this pseudo addition effect and its effect control will be described.

  For the production mode during the ART game, the main control unit 400 first creates an production control command (a command at the start of the ART game) including information on the number of ART games at the start of the ART game or at the time of AT lottery. This is sent to the production control unit 410. The effect control unit 410 determines one or more additional information games based on the ART game number information included in the ART game start time command (determines on which G the pseudo-addition effect is to be executed) and is determined. In addition, in the pseudo-addition effect in the additional notification game (additional game number notification effect 6h: FIG. 14A (3b)), an effect scenario regarding which pseudo-addition game number is to be notified in a range not exceeding the number of ART games is determined. This effect scenario may be selectively determined from a plurality of types of effect scenarios prepared according to the number of ART games, or an additional notification game is determined by a predetermined lottery, and the determined additional information game It is good also as a structure which can determine the production content (the number of pseudo addition games etc.) of the pseudo superimposition effect concerning. In this way, with respect to the production mode during the ART game, various productions during the ART game (for example, assist notification and pseudo-addition production) are performed by the production system in which the main control unit 400 and the production control unit 410 are well coordinated. Is realized.

  Note that, as described above, the production control unit 410 may not lead the determination of the production scenario, but the main control unit 400 may lead the production scenario. Specifically, the main control unit 400 determines a basic production scenario during the ART game (for example, based on the number of ART games, how many G of one or more additional notification games are to be viewed), and this basic production scenario. An effect control command (command for starting this ART game) that can specify information is created and sent to the effect control unit 410. As a result, basic information regarding the production during the ART game is sent to the production control unit 410. The effect control unit 410 determines, based on information included in the ART game start command, what pseudo-addition game number is to be notified in the pseudo-addition effect related to one or a plurality of additional notification games.

  The appearance control of the “pseudo addition effect” is as follows. Under the game play start condition (setting the number of bets), the main control unit 400 can detect the internal lottery and detect the internal lottery result (winning role type) when the operation of the start lever 11 by the player is detected. An effect control command (game information command) is created and sent to the effect control unit 410. When the winning combination of the current game is an additional notification trigger and the current game is an additional notification game, the effect control unit 410 causes a pseudo additional effect to appear.

(Pseudo addition effect mode: FIG. 14A (3))
In the case of this example, the additional notification trigger is the production replay type. Therefore, when one of the production replay types is won in the additional notification game, “7 Lip Navi (this announcement) corresponding to the selected production replay is used as the assist notification. ) "Appears. The reason why the effect replay type is added as a notification trigger is that 7 replays are a combination of symbols with an impact of 'red 7 symbol set', which has a high effect in effect and is suitable as a winning combination when performing an additional notification. Because. In the example shown in the figure, the “production replay 123” is won in the 99G notification game, and the assist notification 6g displays “Aim at 777!” And the push order “123 (left middle right)”. ”Is displayed at the same time and belongs to the“ role-type assistance notification (true role-type assistance notification) ”.

  When the player stops the stop button 12 according to the above “assist notification 6g” (when all the torso is stopped), “red 7 symbol alignment (7 replays)” on the effective winning line on the torso side is derived and displayed. (Not shown) On the liquid crystal screen 6a, an “additional game number notification effect 6h (first result notification effect)” appears, and a pseudo additional game number is notified. This “additional game number notification effect 6h” is an effect mode (pseudo addition notification) that makes it appear as if a predetermined number of games has been added to the current number of remaining ART games. For example, FIG. 14A (3b) As shown in the figure, “+100 GET!” Is displayed largely in the center of the liquid crystal screen 6a.

  When the added game number notification effect 6h is notified by the added game number notification effect 6h, the remaining game number notification effect 6c is added with the pseudo added game number “100G” currently notified to the remaining ART game currently displayed. Changed (updated) values are displayed. In the example shown in the figure, the display is changed to “101”, which is obtained by adding the number of games “100G” to the current remaining ART game “1G”. Thereby, the player can know at least that this ART game can continue for another 101G (the total number of continued operations 200G is guaranteed). Even when the player has failed to push and 7 replays are not derived and displayed, the “additional game number notification effect 6h” appears. In addition, when “Red 7 symbol set” is configured to be able to be stopped and displayed on the pseudo winning line (for example, on the upper, middle, or lower horizontal line), the combination of symbols stopped on the effective winning line (true winning line) It is preferable to display an image indicating a true winning combination in a predetermined display area (for example, the right corner) of the liquid crystal screen 6a so that the player does not mistake that the combination is “7 replays”.

(150G: Additional notification game (second time))
Thereafter, even at the 150th G, a pseudo extra effect having the same content as the above-mentioned 99G pseudo additional effect appears (see the box around the 150G in FIG. 8A), and this ART game continues for at least 101G. It is notified that it is possible (total continuation number 300G is guaranteed). As in the case of “99G”, the pseudo-addition effect of the 150G indicates that “the number of remaining ART games on display (the value of the remaining game number notification effect 6c) is at least one game (0 <N). Shown is a case that is executed in 'state'.

(From 299G to 300G: Additional notification game (third time))
The game progresses further, and in the illustrated 299G, it is the third extra information game, but here, even though it is an extra information game, the case where the stage replay type was not won (the extra information game) The case where the phenomenon which cannot carry out a pseudo-addition production has occurred is shown. In this case, the effect control unit 410 forcibly generates a pseudo-addition effect (additional game number notification 6h) in a specific game after the next game based on the fact that the pseudo-addition effect has not occurred. In the case of this example, a pseudo-addition effect is forcibly generated at the 300th G of the next game. That is, in the 300Gth, a pseudo-addition effect is forcibly produced regardless of what combination is won. In the 300th G, when the number of remaining ART games N on the display (the value of the remaining game number notification effect 6c) is just “zero (N = 0)”, it is compulsory regardless of the internal lottery result. In this case, the pseudo-addition game notification 6h is executed.

  The reason why the “pseudo addition effect (pseudo addition game number notification)” is forcibly generated when the number of remaining ART games N on display (the value of the remaining game number notification effect 6c) becomes zero (N = 0) If the ART game is continued even after the number of remaining ART games on the display (the value of the remaining game number notification effect 6c) becomes “zero”, there will be a contradiction in the effect display, causing confusion for the player. Because it invites. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when an event in which the pseudo-addition effect cannot be executed in the additional notification game occurs, the pseudo-addition effect is forcibly generated in the game in which the number of remaining ART games on the display is “zero”. Consistency between the internal number of remaining ART games and the number of remaining ART games on the effect display is achieved. Of course, as in the 99G and 150G above, before the remaining number of remaining ART games N on the display becomes “zero” (0 <N), a pseudo-addition effect may be executed, and the internal remaining ART The notification mode is not particularly limited as long as the number of games is reported so that the consistency between the number of games and the number of remaining ART games on the effect display is maintained. The point of maintaining this consistency is the same for other notification modes described below (in particular, a fourth notification mode (composite notification type) described later).

Moreover, it is good also as the following structures from a viewpoint of alert | reporting a pseudo-superimposed game shockingly, maintaining a player's tension | tensile_strength.
(A) For example, without generating a “pseudo addition effect” at the 300th eye, a “real ART end effect (see FIG. 14B (5))” indicating that the real ART game has ended once appears. Above, pretend to be the end of this ART game. Then, with the bet number setting (when the MAX bet button 8 or the 1 bet button 9 is operated) at the time of starting the 301Gth or the operation of the start lever 11 after the bet number is set, a pseudo additional effect (pseudo additional game number notification) May be configured to be able to appear such that a pseudo-addition game number is notified by generating
(B) In addition, in the 299G game, which is an additional notification game, a “Gase pseudo-addition effect (FIG. 14B (4))” described later is generated, making it appear as if there was no additional game (a pseudo-addition to be originally reported) The number of games may be concealed once), and it may be configured to appear as if the ART game has ended in the production, and then make the “resurrection effect” appear.
(C) Also, in the extra notification game (299G), if the production replay type is won and 7 Lip Navi (this announcement) has occurred, but the 7 Replay has failed to push (in this case, 7 Lip Fake or normal It is also possible to have a configuration in which an “additional game number notification (additional game number notification effect 6h)” is suddenly displayed when all the trunks are stopped.
(D) In addition, in the extra notification game (299G), even if the production replay type is won, it is determined whether to make a notice or a lie notice by lottery (for example, 90% for this notice, 10% for lie notice). In the case where it is determined that a lie notification will be made, it is also possible to have a configuration in which an “additional game number notification (additional game number notification effect 6h)” suddenly appears when all the torso stops.
In any case, if the pseudo-addition effect (true pseudo-addition effect) has not occurred in the current game, the player advances the game while expecting the occurrence of the pseudo-addition effect in the next game or later. It will be. In the case of this example, if the pseudo-addition effect does not appear, there is a possibility that it will end at the 300Gth that is the subject of the ART game lottery. It is said that the number of games that the tension will be dramatically increased.

(399G: Add-on notification game (fourth time))
Next, in the 399G, similar to the above-described pseudo-addition effects such as the 99G and 150G eyes, a pseudo-addition effect appears (see the box around the 399G in FIG. 8A), and this ART game can be continued for at least 101G. It is notified that there is a total continuation number of 500G.

(Eye 499G: Gase pseudo-addition production)
Next, in the 499Gth, a case is shown in which “play pseudo-addition effect” appears instead of “pseudo-addition effect” although winning for the effect replay has been won.

(Gase pseudo-addition effect mode: FIG. 14B)
The “pseudo addition effect of Gase” will be described with reference to FIG. 14B. The “Gase's pseudo-addition effect” is an effect that gives the player a sense of expectation to add, and is the same as the “true pseudo-addition effect (FIG. 14A (3))” except for the effect result (result notification effect) indicating the addition. As something very similar, it is possible to disguise a true pseudo-additional production. For example, when the production replay type is won, a display of “Aim at 777!” And “Assist notification for lie notification” appear, and notification that the number of added games is zero as a production result (gase notification) To do.

  The example of FIG. 14B shows a case where “effect replay 123” is won among the effect replay types. In the example shown in the figure, “Aim 777!” Is displayed as the assist notification 6g, but the push order (7 Lip Fake Navi) that establishes 7 Lip Fake (7 Lip Hearing Loss) is displayed. (See FIG. 14B (4a)). Therefore, even if the player stops the spinning cylinder according to the contents of the assist notification, “Red 7 pattern alignment” is not established on any line, and it is reported that the number of added games is zero when all the cylinders are stopped. "Additional game number notification effect 6j (second result notification effect)" appears. For example, as shown in FIG. 14B (4b), a large “disappointing” character is displayed at the center of the liquid crystal screen 6a.

  As for the appearance control of “Gase's pseudo-addition effect”, as shown in this example, it may be incorporated into the effect scenario when starting this ART game as one of the effects related to the add-on notification game. It is good also as a structure which is comprised and is not incorporated in the said production | presentation scenario.

  For example, a “gase addition notification game” is determined independently from the true addition notification game, and the “gase use notification game” for the gase addition notification game is determined separately from the production scenario related to the true addition notification game. “Direction scenario” may be set. Specifically, in any one or a plurality of games other than the extra notification game that generates a true pseudo extra effect (in the case of this example, games other than the 99G, 150G, and 299G games), the Gase pseudo extra effect It is possible to selectively determine whether or not to appear by “pseudo addition effect lottery for Gase” or the like. In this case, the production scenario at the start of this ART does not include the game for Gase, but only the contents of the true game for information and the real pseudo addition are determined. When the “pseudo-addition effect lottery” is executed and this is won, it can be configured so that the pseudo-addition effect of gasse can be displayed. In the pseudo-addition effect lottery for Gase, for example, the appearance probability of the pseudo-addition effect of Gase can be varied according to the winning combination.

  The function control unit 410 may have the function unit of the “pseudo addition effect drawing lottery” or the main control unit 400. In the case where the main control unit 400 has an additional effect lottery function unit, an effect control command including additional effect lottery result information (winning result information) can be transmitted to the effect control unit 410, and the effect control unit 410 However, it is only necessary to adopt a configuration that allows the appearance control of the pseudo-addition effect of the gusset based on the addition effect lottery result information. In addition, the control processing content of the fake pseudo stock acquisition effect according to the third notification form (stock notification type) described later (determination of the stock notification game for the fist, determination of the production scenario related to the fake pseudo stock acquisition effect, etc.) Can be made substantially the same control processing content as the above-described pseudo-addition effect of Gase (replace Gase's pseudo-addition effect with Gase's pseudo-stock acquisition effect).

  The “pseudo addition effect of Gase” may be displayed not only once but a plurality of times. In addition, in this example, when winning for the production replay type, an example in which a pseudo-superior effect of Gase appears was explained, but even if it is a winning role other than the production replay (including losing), a pseudo-superior effect of Gase May appear. In this case, in order to increase the player's sense of expectation, a “continuation expectation effect” described later appears, and the player expects whether or not the game will remain internally, while a true pseudo effect or gas It is preferable to present a pseudo-addition effect.

(500G: This ART end game)
Returning to the description of FIG. 14B, the present ART game is terminated at the 500th game of the next game without generating a pseudo-addition effect. On the 500th G, “present ART end effect 6z” shown in FIG. 5 (5) appears as an effect for notifying that the present ART game is terminated. In the present ART end effect 6z, for example, as shown in the figure, an “end” information image, the number of game medals finally acquired, and the like are notified.

(Specific example 2: 300G case)
Next, the case where the number of ART games is “300G” (specific example 2) will be described with reference to FIG. 8B. In addition, about the content substantially the same as the content of the above-mentioned specific example 1, it abbreviate | omits suitably in order to avoid duplication description.

  Specific example 2 illustrates a case of a production scenario in which a pseudo addition production is scheduled only once. This is different from the specific example 1 described above in which the pseudo-addition effect is executed a plurality of times.

  In the case of specific example 2, on the 80th G, which is an additional notification game, the “representation superimposition effect” appears by winning the replay type, but all the ART games being concealed by one “pseudo surrender effect” The number of additional games “200G” corresponding to the number is notified. Therefore, the additional game number “200G” notified here corresponds to “200G” which is the game difference between the current ART game number and the guaranteed game number. As in this example, the pseudo-addition effect mode for notifying all of the number of remaining ART games that are concealed by one “pseudo-addition effect” through this ART game is referred to as “one-shot increase notification effect”.

  When the additional game number “200G” is notified by this one-shot additional notification effect, a pseudo additional game number “200G” is added to the remaining ART game “20” currently displayed in the remaining game number notification effect 6c. The display is changed to “220”. Thereby, the player can know at least that the ART game can continue for another 220G (the total number of continued 300G is guaranteed). However, in this example, since the number of ART games is 300G, after that, there is no pseudo-addition effect (see the box "100G to 300G" in FIG. 8B). The “ART end effect” appears, and the present ART game is ended with the end of the 300th G.

(Specific example 3: 100G case)
Next, with reference to FIG. 8C, the case where the number of ART games is “100G” (specific example 3) will be described. Specific example 3 shows a case where the game ends with “100G” of the guarantee game. In the case of the specific example 3, the 100G-th game that will be the ART ending game arrives without generating any effects related to the added game (pseudo added effect or pseudo added effect). Then, at the 100th G, the “real ART end effect” appears, and it is notified that the current real ART game is to be ended. In addition, before the 100th G is digested (1st to 100th G), you may make the pseudo-addition effect of the gasse appear.

(Additional notification type modification 1)
In addition, in the above “add-on notification type”, a specific role (expected production opportunity role: for example, one or more specific small roles (weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry (winning numbers 23 to 26), etc.)) In the case of winning, a “continuation expectation effect” for informing game information related to the number of remaining ART games may be configured to appear. For example, a specific character image or object image can be displayed in accordance with the number of internal remaining ART games. More specifically, when the number of remaining ART games is greater than or equal to a predetermined number of games, a continuation expectation effect can be displayed. As a result, it is possible to give the player a guess element of the number of remaining ART games or the number of current ART games. In addition, when making a continuation expectation effect appear, it is preferable to determine by predetermined lottery (for example, appear at 10%). When providing a plurality of expected performance triggers, it is preferable to determine the appearance probability according to each expected performance trigger (for example, 20% for a weak cherry and 50% for a strong cherry).

  In addition, when a plurality of expected continuation effects including a first continuation expectation effect and a second continuation expectation effect are provided and the number of remaining ART games is equal to or greater than the first game number (for example, 200G or more), the second continuation expectation effect is provided. In the case where the first success expectation effect is displayed with a higher probability than the first game number and the number of second games is greater than the first game number (for example, 500G or more), the first expectation effect effect is more It is possible to make the second expected production appear with high probability.

  The notification timing of the “continuation expectation effect” may be triggered by the operation of the start lever 11, or may be triggered by the fact that all the cylinders are stopped and the game result is derived. Further, when there is a possibility that the specific combination (expected production trigger) may be missed by the pressing operation, the continuous expected production may be displayed when the missing combination does not occur.

  Note that there may be one or more types of expected performance triggers. In addition, the continuation expectation effect may be displayed by a predetermined lottery. When multiple types of expected effect triggers are provided, the role with the lower probability of winning will be displayed with a higher probability of the continuation expectation effect. It is preferable to configure.

  Moreover, the continuation expectation effects as described above can also be applied in the case of second to sixth notification modes described later. For example, in the case of the second notification form (set notification type) described later, since the remaining set number information can be a notification target due to the continuation expectation effect, information on the number of remaining ART games or the number of remaining sets (number of remaining notification games) The continuation expectation effect can be made to appear. When providing a plurality of expected continuation effects including a first continuation expected effect and a second continuation expected effect, if the number of remaining sets is equal to or greater than the first set number (for example, two or more sets), the second continuation expectation In the case where the first success expectation effect is more likely to appear than the effect and the number of second sets is greater than the first set number (for example, 5 sets or more), the first expectation effect effect is It is possible to make the second expected production more appear with higher probability than. The number of remaining sets may be configured so that the number of remaining sets can be calculated based on the current number of digested games and the contents of the production scenario. Further, in the case of a third notification mode (stock notification type) described later, since the remaining stock number information can be a notification target by the continuous expectation effect instead of the remaining set number according to the second notification mode described above, the same applies. In addition, the expected continuation effect can be made to appear for information regarding the number of remaining ART games or the number of remaining stocks (the number of remaining stock notification games). Similarly, for the other third to sixth notification modes, the above-described continuation expectation effect can be configured to appear based on the number of remaining sets and the number of remaining ART games.

(Additional notification type modification 2)
Further, in the present embodiment, the winning condition of the additional notification trigger is described as the condition as the appearance condition of the pseudo additional effect (pseudo additional notification). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a configuration in which a pseudo-superior effect is displayed regardless of the internal lottery result triggered by the execution of an extra game (in this example, 99G, 150G, 299G, and 399G) It is good.

  Specifically, (a) in the extra notification game, when the production replay type is won, the “type assist notification” (“Aim for 777!” And 7 Lip Navi (this announcement) are generated), “ The player is prompted to stop the “Red 7 Pattern Match”, and the “Red 7 Pattern Match” is generated and displayed with the impact of the stop of the whole body, and the pseudo-addition game is notified in a congratulatory direction (FIG. 14B (3 (See “Additional game number notification effect 6h”)), except for the additional notification game, “Red 7 symbol set” is not derived and displayed in the dark clouds, and a “lie notification” is made.

  On the other hand, (b) when the push order bell type is won, unlike the case where the above-mentioned production replay is won, the “middle bell navigation (push (Successful answer) ”is generated (in particular, the effect“ Aim for the bell! ”Is not displayed), and the pseudo-addition effect (addition notification) is displayed with the stoppage of the entire body (not shown). (C) In addition, if any of the “unsuccessful push order” “weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, common bell A or common bell B” (lottery numbers 23 to 28) is won, As shown, a “role classification notification effect” for notifying the winning role type this time is displayed, and a pseudo-addition effect is displayed when the all-round torso is stopped (not shown). (D) In the case of lose (winning number 0) or normal replay (winning number 1), only a background display that does not generate any role type notification effect or assist notification is displayed, and a pseudo-addition effect is created when all body stops. Appear (not shown). In other words, when a role other than the replay is won, a normal game (non-superior information game) and an additional information game (including an additional information game for gaze) in this ART game are produced according to the supervision notification. The effects other than the aspect are the same.

  In other words, when the effect replay type is won in the extra notification game, the “7-pattern match” having an impact is derived and the extra notification is executed in a blessing manner. On the other hand, in the case of a winning combination other than that, it is possible to suddenly execute an extra notification and inform the player of the extra impact. However, in the case of (b), (c), and (d) described above, “chance! (High expectation)” and “chance ??” triggered by the start of the additional notification game or other non-addition notification game! "Low)" or the like may be displayed, and an "expanded expectation effect" may be made to appear. In this case, it is preferable to set the appearance probability of the expected effect to be relatively higher in the additional notification game than in the non-addition notification game in order to increase the player's feeling of additional expectation.

  It is as follows when the preferable form of 1st Embodiment is put together. In addition, although the parenthesis shows the corresponding element in the embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this (the same applies to preferred embodiments according to second to sixth embodiments described later).

  Note that the above-described configuration (8) (normal addition notification form) can also be applied to second to fifth embodiments described later. The “reward game” is a game state that is more advantageous to the player than a normal game (RT0 game (or RT1 game may be used) + AT0 game), and when the number of digest games reaches a predetermined upper limit game number, Any gaming state that is necessarily terminated may be used. As a privilege game, for example, a game state with an allowed state in which at least an assist notification is permitted (a game state in an advantageous section), a game state with at least an AT game), and a game with at least a re-game probability variation state State, bonus game, gaming state with 'high probability game' in which at least “AT lottery probability” and / or “freeze effect lottery probability” is relatively higher than normal game can be adopted (second 2 described later) The same applies to the sixth embodiment).

[Second Notification Form (Second Embodiment)]
(B-1. Set notification type: FIGS. 9A to 9C and FIGS. 15A to 15C)
Next, with reference to FIG. 9A to FIG. 9C and FIG. 15A to FIG. 15C, the “set notification type” of the second notification form (second embodiment) according to the present invention will be described in detail.

(B-2. Overview of set notification type)
This “set notification type” is different from the above “pseudo addition notification type”, and the number of multiple games (in this example, 100G) is set as one set unit, and the set is one or a plurality of sets in a pseudo manner. This is a “set notification type” in which this ART game is continued in a pseudo manner. For example, if the guarantee game is 100G and one set is 100G, if only one set is continued, a total of 200G of "guarantee game 100G (first set) + one set 100G (second set)" The number of continuous games.

  In order to facilitate understanding of the “set notification type”, an outline thereof will be described first. Here, the substantially same contents as the contents of the above “pseudo addition notification type” will be described while being omitted as appropriate in order to avoid duplication, and substantially the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals. is there.

  In the set notification type according to the present embodiment, as in the case of the “pseudo addition notification type”, 100 G of the guaranteed game number is notified as the initial number of games at the start of the ART game. The number of games determined by the ART game number lottery) is not informed to the player as a concealed state. However, the following points are different from the “pseudo addition notification type”.

  In the case of the “set notification type”, a “set continuation notice effect” for notifying whether or not one set (100G) will continue is displayed regardless of the internal lottery result for a specific game number, and this ART is displayed. It is configured to notify whether or not the game is continued. In the case of this embodiment, a special freeze effect (SP freeze or N freeze) that does not occur in the normal game or bonus game is adopted as the set continuation notice effect, and the presence or absence of the continuation of this ART game is shockedly notified. It has become.

  A characteristic point of the “set notification type” is that the number of games in which the “set continuation notice effect” is generated is scheduled. Specifically, at the start of this ART game (which may be at the time of the AT lottery), the game in which the set continuation notice effect (SP freeze or N freeze) is executed (for example, The production scenario regarding the set continuation notice effect is determined. That is, the “set notification type” is also a “finished race type” production scenario, similar to the “pseudo addition notification type”.

For example, when the number of games at the start of the ART game (in this example, the number of ART games determined by the number of ART game lotteries) is “500G”, one set of effect scenarios (reel effect scenarios) related to freezing Is fixed at 100G units,
'SP freeze for set continuation notification (in this example, SP2 freeze for double 7-pattern matching)' for "100G, 200G, 300G and 400G" It is determined that the “N freeze” for the non-continuation notification of the set is generated at the 500G when the set ends. In other words, at the start of this ART game (which may be at the time of AT winning), based on the current number of ART games, a game that is scheduled to generate “SP2 freeze” for set continuation notification, The game in which the occurrence of “N freeze” is scheduled is determined. The reel effect scenario described above is determined on the main control unit 400 side that controls the freeze (the same applies to other notification forms).

  In the above “SP2 freeze for set continuation notification”, the reel production on the rotating side (main production during freeze) and the production during freeze (sub-stage production during freeze: set continuation notice production described later) In cooperation, one set continuation is notified (see FIGS. 15A and 15B described later). On the other hand, in the above “N freeze for non-continuation notification of set”, the reel production on the rotating side and the effect during the freeze on the production means side (the set non-continuation notification production described later) cooperate to end the current game. Accordingly, the end of set continuation (end of this ART game) is notified (see FIG. 15C described later). That is, in the set notification type according to the present embodiment, SP2 freeze is generated when the ART game is continued and the set continuation is notified, and when the ART game ends (the last game of the number of ART games), it is not SP2 freeze. N freeze occurs, the set discontinuation is notified, and the end of the ART game is notified.

  As described above, a game in which a freeze for continuation / non-continuation notification (SP freeze for set continuation notification and N freeze for set non-continuation notification) occurs is the game at the end of one set, specifically, the 100Gth and 200G Eyes, 300G eyes, 400G eyes,..., 1000G eyes, 1100G eyes, 1200G eyes, and fixed game numbers. Therefore, the production scenario does not include a plurality of production scenarios in which the continuation / non-continuation notification freezes are different depending on the number of ART games, but the number of ART games and the occurrence of freezes. A production scenario corresponding to a one-to-one game is prepared. Hereinafter, the game in which the occurrence of the “freeze effect” related to the set continuation / non-continuation of the set will be described as a “notification game”.

  Thus, in the case of the set notification type, at least “one set (100G)” is ensured by notifying “continuation of one set” in the notification game. If “Continue” is notified, the ART game is ended with the end of the game of the set. The real pleasure of the “set notification type” is the notification game in which it is determined whether or not the one set end game (every 100G) continues to be set. Each time a set of ending games arrives, the player can enjoy the ART game with an apprehension of the result of the freeze effect (whether or not the set is continued).

(B-3. Specific example of set notification type: FIGS. 9A to 9C)
Next, specific examples of the set notification type will be described with reference to FIGS. 9A to 9C and FIGS. 15A to 15C. FIG. 9A to FIG. 9C representatively show cases where 500G (specific example 4), 300G (specific example 5), and 100G (specific example 6) are determined by the ART game number lottery as an example of the set notification type. It is a thing. FIG. 15A to FIG. 15C show an example of the production mode developed during the ART game. The reel production related to SP2 freeze (the main production during the freeze) and the production during the freeze (the sub production during the freeze). It is explanatory drawing with which it uses for description.

(Specific example 4: 500G case)
First, the case where the number of ART games is “500G” (specific example 4) will be described with reference to FIGS. 9A and 15A to 15C.

  In specific example 4 of FIG. 9A, the number of ART games is set to “500G”, and the SP2 freeze occurrence game is set to the set end game “100G, 200G, 300G and 400G” for a total of 4 times (multiple times), The case of the production scenario which makes generation | occurrence | production of N freeze "500G eyes" is illustrated.

(0G: Start of this ART game)
Referring to FIG. 9A and FIG. 15A, when the ART game is started, first, as the (0G) effect mode at the start of the ART game, the liquid crystal screen 6a has a light effect and a sound effect. 1) As shown, “game state notification effect 6y”, “acquired number notification effect 6b”, “remaining game number notification effect 6c”, “digested game number notification effect 6d”, “story effect (character effect) 6e”, An effect such as “background effect (not shown)” is displayed. “Acquired number notification effect 6b”, “Remaining game number notification effect 6c”, “Digested game number notification effect 6d”, “Character effect 6e”, and “Background effect” are the same as those described in the pseudo additional notification type. The contents of the production can change according to the game progress status.

  In addition to the above-mentioned effects, “set number notification effect 6r” for displaying the number of sets (continuation set number) is displayed as an effect specific to the set notification type. The display content of the set number notification effect 6r can change every time the number of sets continues. In the example of FIG. 15A (1), an information image of “encounter 1” indicating that the current set number is the first set is displayed as the set number notification effect 6r in the display area near the lower right corner. . The value of this information image changes as the number of sets continues. For example, “Encounter 2” for the second set, “Encounter 3” for the third set,. From the 7th and the 7th set onward, the display changes to a special display “During Alien Abduction” indicating that Dalian Zhuang is in operation. Further, the twelfth set of the maximum number of sets is changed to a congratulatory display “implanted”.

(99G: Immediately before the notification game (first time))
Thereafter, 98G is digested (not shown), and the game progresses to the 99th G (before the notification game 1G) in FIG. 15A (2). In the 99th G, as shown in the figure, an information image of “197 GET” as the acquired number notification effect 6b and an information image of “1” indicating that there is at least “1G” of the remaining ART game as the remaining game number notification effect 6c. As the digest game number notification effect 6d, an information image of “99” indicating that 99G of this ART game has been digested is displayed.

  Further, the character effect 6e (FIG. 15A (2a)) of the game is a sign effect (notice game sign effect) that suggests that the notifying game is approaching. It appears from a plurality of games before (for example, 96G before three games), and this indication effect can be executed across a plurality of games of 96G to 98G. In addition, this indication effect does not necessarily appear for the notification game, but is intended for a game number irrelevant to the notification game, or a notification game related to set non-continuation notification (N freeze for set non-continuation notification) In this case, the expected degree of whether or not the set continuation notification (SP2 freeze) is generated can be suggested by the contents of the sign effect.

  In addition, at the 99Gth, an assist notification 6f that assists in a predetermined pushing order appears. The illustrated assist notification 6f is a role concealment assist notification for concealing the winning role type, and exemplifies a case where “effect replay 213” is won among the effect replay types. In the set notification type, the production scenario is determined so that the SP2 freeze is generated in the scheduled notification game regardless of the internal lottery result. Therefore, even if this announcement is made when the production replay type is won. Either assist notification may be used even if a lie is notified, but it is preferable to notify a lie because “red 7 symbol set” is not derived and displayed in the dark clouds. In addition, the set notification type does not require an additional notification like the pseudo-addition notification type, and therefore it is not necessary to provide an effect replay type that acts as an additional notification trigger.

(100G: 1st set end game (notification game))
The progress of the game moves to FIG. 15A (3), and at the 100th G, which is a notification game, an “SP2 freeze” for setting continuation notification occurs when the start lever 11 is operated, and one set of this ART game is continued. (The total continuation number 200G is guaranteed). Here, execution control of a freeze effect (SP freeze, N freeze) during this ART game will be described.

  For the set notification type effect mode (effect mode during this ART game) according to the present embodiment, the main control unit 400 first starts this ART game (may be at the time of winning the AT lottery), and this time ART. Based on the number of games, a basic effect scenario (reel effect scenario) during this ART game is determined (for example, based on the number of ART games this time, SP freeze is executed in which game, N Determine whether to execute freeze), create a “reel effect scenario command” that can specify the content of the reel effect scenario, and an “ART game number command” that can specify the number of ART games this time, These commands are sent to the effect control unit 410. As a result, basic information regarding the production during the ART game is sent to the production control unit 410. The effect control unit 410 determines the content of “set continuation notice effect (set continuation / set non-continuation notification effect)” as an effect during freezing, which will be described later, based on information included in each command.

  Appearance control of effects related to SP freeze (reel effect and effect during freeze) is as follows. The main control unit 400 performs an internal lottery when the operation of the start lever 11 by the player is detected under a game game start condition, and determines whether or not the current game is a notification game. When the game this time is an SP freeze notification game, the main control unit 400 controls the production of a “freeze command (here, a command for designating the SP freeze)” that can specify the type of freeze as the production control command. While being transmitted to the unit 410, the reel effect (main side effect during freeze) related to the SP freeze is executed and controlled over a predetermined freeze time SPt. The effect control unit 410 controls the appearance of the “set continuation notice effect” related to the SP2 freeze as the effect during the freeze (sub-effect during the freeze) based on the information included in the freeze command. In the case of SP2 freeze, a “set continuation notification effect” for notifying the continuation of the set appears as an effect result of the set continuation notice effect (see FIG. 15B (3e) described later).

  The N freeze control is substantially the same processing content as the SP freeze described above, and if the current game is an N freeze notification game, the reel effect related to the N freeze over a predetermined freeze time Nt. And a “freeze command (here, a command for designating N freeze)” that can specify a freeze type is transmitted to the effect control unit 410 as an effect control command. The effect control unit 410 controls the appearance of the “set continuation notice effect” related to the N freeze as the effect during the freeze (the effect during the sub-freeze) based on the information included in the freeze command. In the case of N freeze, a “set non-continuation notification effect” for notifying the discontinuation appears as an effect result of the set continuation notice effect (see FIG. 15C (4c) described later).

  However, in the notification game, if the winning order role such as the pressing order bell is won, the necessary assist notification will be given in duplicate (simultaneously) with the set continuation / non-continuation notification effect or after the freeze ends. Make it appear.

(Production mode during SP2 freeze (set continuation notification): FIG. 15A (3), FIG. 15B)
Next, with reference to FIG. 15A and FIG. 15B, a freeze effect mode during SP2 freeze will be described. FIG. 15A (3) and FIG. 15B show an example of the set continuation notice effect (reel effect and effect during freeze) related to SP2 freeze.

  In the case of this example, in the one set end game, “SP2 freeze” occurs when the set is continued, and the set continuation notice effect during the SP2 freeze is notified of the set continuation. Specifically, when the SP2 freeze is started, first, the reel effect time (6 seconds) in the all-cylinder stationary state of the SP2 freeze is used, and the player participation type “button notice” shown in FIG. 15A (3a) is used. The effect 6p "and the" blackout effect "shown in FIG. 15A (3b) appear in time series. Specifically, with the start of the freeze state, first, “button notice effect 6p” including a “button image” imitating the effect button together with the characters “press!” Prompting the effect button operation at the center of the liquid crystal screen 6a. Appears for a predetermined time (for example, 4 seconds). This button notice effect 6p appears as part of the set continuation notice effect, and whether or not the result of the set continuation notice effect is a set continuation notice effect, that is, this ART game ends in this set. It works as an expectation production to raise expectations about whether or not. It should be noted that the degree of expectation of SP2 freeze or N freeze using the difference in effect mode of the button notice effect 6p, in other words, whether or not the set continuation notification is made (whether or not the set is continued). You may suggest a degree of expectation. For example, when the button notice effect 6p is an animation image, a difference in the color scheme of the button notice effect 6p (low expectation level if the PUSH character of the button image is blue, high expectation degree if the button character is red, etc.) The degree of expectation may be notified due to a difference or the like.

  When the player presses down (operates) the effect button while the button notice effect 6p appears (within the operation valid period), the “blackout effect” shown in FIG. 15A (3b) appears. Here, the “blackout effect” is an effect mode in which the player's expectation / tension is expressed with respect to the effect by making the display screen “blackout state (dark display)” as a whole. In addition, even if there is no operation of the effect button within the operation valid period, if the effect time (4 seconds) of the button notice effect 6p has elapsed, the blackout effect appears. . In addition, when the player does not operate the effect button, the continuation confirmation notification effect (for example, a special sound such as a lightning sound is generated) does not occur during the blackout effect, and the player operates the effect button. As long as the continuation confirmation notification effect is generated. Therefore, if the player wants to know the effect of the set continuation notice effect (here, the set continuation notification effect) in advance, it is recommended to operate the effect button, and if he wants to feel the tension to the end. It is recommended to wait for the end of the blackout effect without operating the effect button.

  Then, when the production time (6 seconds) in the all-cylinder stationary state elapses, the “blackout production” is ended. Next, using the reel effect by the irregular rotation operation and the effect during the freeze accompanying the reel effect, the effect of the set continuation notification effect is displayed.

  Specifically, an irregular rotation operation of each spinning cylinder is started, and as shown in FIG. 15B (3c), “7 symbols” of each spinning cylinder are placed on the “X” line formed by the right descending line and the left descending line. The temporary stop is performed, and the “double red 7 symbol alignment” having an impact is derived and displayed, and this temporary stop state is held for a predetermined time. The temporary stop state of “double red 7 symbols aligned” is maintained until the freeze time SPt ends. Also, as shown in FIG. 15B (3d), as an effect during the freezing operation and a temporary stop display of “double red 7 symbols”, as a freeze effect, an impact sound by the sound effect and a flash effect by the light effect, as shown in FIG. 15B (3d) A large “7-match notification image 6k” is displayed in the center of 6a to notify the establishment of double red 7-pattern alignment (7-match notification effect 6k).

  Thereafter, the “seven uniform notification image 6k” disappears, and as shown in FIG. 15B (3e), a large “continuation confirmed” information image 6m is displayed at the center of the liquid crystal screen 6a (result notification effect 6m), and the remaining The display value of the game number notification effect 6c is changed (updated) to a value obtained by adding the number of games “100G” for one set notified this time to the remaining ART game on the current display. In the case of this example, the display is changed to “100” obtained by adding “100G” for one set to the remaining ART game “0G” on the current display. Thus, the player can at least know that the ART game can continue for another 100G (the total number of continued games 200G is guaranteed). When the freeze time SPt ends, each cylinder is controlled to a normal rotation operation, and the stop operation of the stop button 12 is allowed (FIG. 15B (3f)).

  That is, in the case of this example, the result of the set continuation notice effect (set continuation notification) is “double red 7 symbol alignment” by the reel effect, “7 alignment notification image 6k” and “result notification effect 6m” accompanying the reel effect. One set of continuations is notified by a series of effects.

(200G ~ 400G: End game of 2nd set ~ 4th set)
Referring to FIG. 9A again, in the 200G, 300G, and 400G as well, the “SP2 freeze” occurs in the same way as the 100G described above (see the frame around the 200G in FIG. 9A), and this ART game Is further notified that the total number of continuations 300G, 400G, and 500G is guaranteed.

(500G: This ART game end game (5th set end game))
The game progresses further, and in the 500th G, which is the end of the fifth set, the “real ART end effect 6z” shown in FIG. 15C (4d) appears without SP2 freeze, and five sets of this ART game are displayed. With this (one set of guaranteed games + 4 sets of total continuation number 500G), the current ART game is ended.

(Production mode during N freeze (non-continuation notification of set): FIG. 15C)
In the case of this example, “N freeze” is generated at the 500th G, which is the final (end) game (set continuation end game) of this ART game, and the set continuation notice effect during the N freeze is set. Non-continuation is notified. N Freeze works as a Gase set continuation notice in that it reports a set discontinuation.

  The set continuation notice effect related to N freeze will be described with reference to FIG. 15C. FIG. 15C shows an example of a set continuation notice effect (reel effect and effect during freeze) related to N freeze.

  As described above, the N freeze is a “freeze at the start of rotation of the rotating cylinder” in which all the rotating cylinders are kept stationary for a predetermined freezing time Nt when the start lever 11 is operated. Using this, in the N-freeze at the end of the set, as shown in FIGS. 15C (4a) and (4b), as shown in FIGS. 15C (4a) and (4b), the effect mode (button notice effect 6p and black) The effect during the freeze that is the same as or very similar to the “out effect” is made to appear, and on the effect, it appears as if the SP2 freeze has occurred. As a result, even if N freeze occurs, it is possible to pretend as if SP2 freeze has occurred until the effect result (result notification effect 6n of FIG. 15C (4c)) is derived. The set continuation expectation can be greatly appreciated.

  However, in the case of “N freeze”, the “result notification effect” shown in FIG. 15C (4c) appears after the blackout effect. Unlike the result notification effect 6m (continuous notification) related to SP2 freeze, this “result notification effect 6n” is an effect mode (non-continuous notification) that notifies that the set continuation is complete. For example, as shown in the figure, a large information image 6n of “continuation failure” is displayed at the center of the liquid crystal screen 6a (result notification effect 6n). As a result of the notification effect 6n, the player knows the end of the ART game in the current game.

  Then, when the freeze time Nt ends, each cylinder is controlled to a normal rotation operation and the stop operation of the stop button 12 is allowed, and the ART game is ended with the end of the 500th G. In addition, after the normal rotation operation, a “real ART end effect 6z” shown in FIG. 15C (4d) and the like appear, and it is notified that the real ART game has ended. In the case of this example, the information image of “end”, the number of game medals finally acquired, the number of set times finally digested (in the example shown, 5 sets), etc. are notified.

(Modification 1 of set notification type)
Note that it is not necessary to generate N freeze in the final game of this ART game (set continuation end game). Specifically, the SP2 freeze is generated at the 100G, 200G, 300G, and 400G to notify the continuation of the set. At the 500G, the ART end effect is displayed without generating the freeze itself, and the effect is displayed. In this configuration, the set discontinuation is notified and the end of the ART game is notified. When this “notification mode that does not generate N freeze (hereinafter referred to as“ N-freeze notification mode ”)” is adopted, for SP2 freeze, the player participation type button notice effect 6p is not displayed. It is preferable to do. This is because when the SP2 freeze occurs, the set continuation is confirmed, so in such a situation, if a player participation type effect that prompts the player to operate the effect button is displayed, This is because it causes trouble for the player. Therefore, as the SP freeze in the “N-freeze notification mode”, for example, when the start lever 11 is operated, an irregular rotation operation of the rotating cylinder is started (it may be started together with the blackout effect, or the blackout effect may be started). After the completion (may be started after all the cylinders are stationary for a predetermined time (for example, 2 seconds)), “double red 7 symbol alignment”, “7 alignment notification effect 6k” and “result notification effect 6m” A series of production modes are configured to appear.

  In the case of this embodiment, the SP freeze is “freeze at start of rotation of the rotating cylinder (freeze when lever is turned on)”. Therefore, when the “N-freeze notification mode” is adopted, the setting is triggered by the operation of the start lever 11. In the case of continuation, a flashy effect (SP2 freeze) appears, and in the case of non-continuation of the set, it is possible to create a situation in which the game starts indifferently without causing a freeze. Therefore, in the game where the set is ended, it is immediately determined whether the set is continued or not set when the start lever 11 is operated. Therefore, when the start lever 11 is operated when the game is started, the player's expectation to continue is set. It can be the moment when the feeling and tension reach the climax. Hereinafter, the SP2 freeze in the above “N-freeze notification mode” is referred to as “immediate notification SP2 freeze”.

(Specific example 5: 300G case)
Next, a case where the number of ART games is “300G” (specific example 5) will be described with reference to FIG. 9B. In addition, about the content substantially the same as the content of the above-mentioned specific example 4, in order to avoid duplication description, it demonstrates, abbreviate | omitting suitably.

  Specific example 5 in FIG. 9B is an effect scenario in which the occurrence of SP freeze is scheduled in the middle of a game period in which one set ends (in the middle of a set game: in this example, a specific number of games between 1st to 99G). This is an example of the case. This is different from the above-described specific example 4 in which the SP freeze is executed in the one-set end game.

  In Example 5, as the production scenario, the number of ART games is “300G”, the SP freeze occurrence game is “80G in the middle of the end of the first set, 200G of the end game of the second set”, and N freeze occurs This is a case where the notification game to be performed is the 300Gth. As in this example, by suddenly generating an SP freeze before the end of one set, the set continuation notification with impact can be performed.

(Modification 2 of set notification type)
In addition, when performing the set continuation notification in the middle of the game period in which one set ends as in this specific example 5, the above “immediate notification SP2 freeze” is employed in order to perform the set continuation notification with a stronger impact. It is preferable. Specifically, the following (α) (β) can be adopted.
(Α) “Instant notification SP2 freeze” is generated in the mid-setting game (80G in this example) and the set end game (200G in this example) to notify the set continuation.
(Β) The “continuous notification SP2 freeze” is generated at 80 G to notify the set continuation, and the “SP freeze” is generated at the 200 G end of the set to notify the set continuation (heterogeneous SP freeze mixed notification mode).
In (α) and (β) above, “N Freeze” may be generated in the final game of this ART game (300G in this example) to notify the non-continuation of the set, or set according to the N-freeze notification form. Non-continuation may be notified (setting non-continuation is notified by this ART end effect without generating N freeze).

(Specific example 6: 100G case)
Next, the case where the number of ART games is “100G” of the guaranteed game (specific example 3) will be described with reference to FIG. 9C. Specific example 6 in FIG. 9C shows a case where the game ends in the first set (100G guaranteed game). In the case of this example, the ART game is ended with the end game (100G) of the first set without generating a freeze effect related to whether or not the set is continued. However, as shown in the figure, at the 100th G, which is the end game of the first set, N freeze may be generated to notify the set non-continuation, or the set non-continuation may be notified by the N-freeze notification form. .

  It is as follows when the preferable form of 2nd Embodiment is put together. Note that substantially the same components as those in the first embodiment are omitted as appropriate.

(1) Game result display means, start means, combination lottery means, stop means, stop control means, and privilege game control means (FIGS. 9A to 9C) for controlling the privilege game, A revolving type gaming machine configured to be able to give a corresponding gaming value,
As the number of continuation games of the privilege game, the number of games is determined from a plurality of types of divided games divided for each predetermined number of games within a predetermined number of guaranteed games from a predetermined number of guaranteed games. Bonus game number determination means (main control unit 400, FIG. 21)
The number of games determined by the bonus game number determining means is concealed, and based on a predetermined notification condition, the number of concealed game number notification control means (function for controlling the set continuation advance notice effect) is notified. Unit: for example, FIG. 15A (3), FIG. 15C (4)),
The secret game number notification control means is configured to be able to notify information regarding whether or not to continue the set game with the number of separated games as one set unit based on the number of games determined by the privilege game number determination means. When the set game is continued, in a predetermined game, set continuation notification control means for executing set continuation notification for notifying that the bonus game can be continued for at least one set (result) A functional unit for controlling the notification effect 6m (set continuation notification): for example, FIG. 15B (3e)),
The privilege game control means always ends the privilege game when the upper limit number of games has been consumed (FIGS. 9A to 9C and FIG. 15B).
This is a spinning machine.
(2) The set continuation notification control means sets the predetermined game as an end game in which the current set game ends (for example, the number of divided games of the 100G, 200G, 300G, and 400G in FIG. 9A). Executing the set continuation notification;
The above described spinning machine according to (1) above.

  In addition, the present embodiment can be a swivel type gaming machine according to the above (1) or (2) having the configuration of the “normal addition notification mode”.

[Third Notification Form (Third Embodiment)]
(C-1. Stock notification type (zero game consecutive resort notification type): FIGS. 10A to 10C and FIGS. 16A to 16D)
Next, with reference to FIGS. 10A to 10C and FIGS. 16A to 16C, the “stock notification type” of the third notification form (third embodiment) according to the present invention will be described in detail.

(C-2. Overview of stock notification type)
In the “stock notification type”, similarly to the “set notification type” described above, the number of multiple games (100G in this example) is set as one set unit, and one or a plurality of sets are continued in a pseudo manner. As a result, the ART game is continued in a pseudo manner. However, the “stock notification type” of the present embodiment and the “set notification type” of the second notification form differ in the manner of notification of set continuation. Details will be described below.

  In order to facilitate understanding of the “stock notification type”, an outline thereof will be described first. In addition, about the content substantially the same as the content of above-mentioned "set alerting | reporting type (specific examples 4-6)", it abbreviate | omits suitably in order to avoid duplication description, and it is set as the substantially same component. Are given the same reference numerals.

  In short, the “stock notification type”, which has been known for a long time, temporarily stores the right to execute a bonus game when a predetermined lottery is won, and activates the right when a predetermined release condition is met. This is a simulated reproduction of a spinning-reel game machine with a so-called “stock function”. In this respect, this example is referred to as a “stock notification type”.

  In the stock notification type according to the present embodiment, as in the case of the “addition notification type” and “set notification type”, at the start of this ART game, 100G of the guaranteed game number is notified as the initial number of games. The number of ART games (the number of games determined by this ART game number lottery) is not informed to the player as a concealed state.

  However, when a specific number of games arrives, a “pseudo stock acquisition effect” (hereinafter referred to as “pseudo stock acquisition effect”) as if at least one set (100G) was added internally, regardless of the internal lottery result. (See FIG. 16A (2) and FIG. 16B (3) described later)), and the number of games for one or a plurality of sets is further obtained for the set game currently being executed for the production. Thus, the number of sets to be continued (the number of set continuations and the number of ART continued games) can be notified. In this way, the number of concealed ART games (the number of concealed set continuations) is disclosed according to the number of appearances of the “pseudo stock acquisition effect”, in other words, in the same manner as the extra notification type A part or all of the remaining ART game being concealed is notified by a special effect called “pseudo stock acquisition effect”. In the case of the present embodiment, the pseudo stock acquisition effect includes a later-described “gase pseudo stock acquisition effect (see FIG. 16D described later)” that notifies the stock acquisition failure.

  When the above “pseudo stock acquisition effect” occurs (at least when one set is continued), after the game for one set that is currently being digested (in this example, the next game of the end game) ), A “pseudo stock release effect (hereinafter referred to as a“ pseudo stock release effect ”(see FIG. 16C (5)) described later)) that behaves as if the acquired stock has been released appears, and the set continuation confirmation ( The start of the next set game) is notified. In the case of this example, a freeze effect by “SP1 freeze” is adopted as the pseudo stock release effect, and the set continuation is notified by the flashy effect.

  Here, the characteristic points of the “stock notification type” are that the game in which the “pseudo stock acquisition effect” is generated is scheduled and the game in which the pseudo stock release effect is generated is scheduled. is there. Specifically, at the start of this ART game (which may be at the time of AT lottery), based on the number of ART games, the “pseudo stock acquisition effect (Gase stock acquisition effect is (In which game and in which game it is executed), in which game the “pseudo stock release effect ((SP1 freeze))” for set continuation notification is executed, etc. A production scenario is determined. That is, this “set notification type” is also a “successful race type” production scenario, similar to the “addition notification type” and “set notification type”.

  For example, when the number of games at the start of this ART game (in this example, the number of ART games determined by lottery of the number of ART games) is “500G” (the case of the specific example of FIG. 10A described later), , “Pseudo stock acquisition effect” is generated at “30G, 80G, 280G, and 380G (4 times in total)” and the next game at the end of one set is “101G, 201G, 301G, and 401G” It is determined that the pseudo stock release effect (SP1 freeze) is generated by “eyes (total 4 times)”. In this production scenario, even if the number of ART games is the same, a number of production scenarios are prepared so that the pseudo stock acquisition production game can be various (random) cases. The production scenario is selectively determined by lottery or the like. In order to avoid duplication, explanation of other examples is omitted, but the above example is merely an example of a production scenario, and a number of production scenarios with different games in which a pseudo stock acquisition production occurs are prepared. ing.

  Hereinafter, for the sake of convenience of explanation, a game scheduled to generate a pseudo stock acquisition effect will be referred to as a “stock notification game”, and a game scheduled to generate a pseudo stock release effect will be referred to as a “stock release game”.

  As for the specific determination process contents of the above-described production scenario, as in the case of the “set notification type” described in the second embodiment, the main control unit 400 starts the ART game (at the time of winning the AT lottery). And a basic production scenario of how many games the pseudo stock release production (SP1 freeze) is executed based on the number of ART games this time (how many G is the stock release game) Reel production scenario) is determined. The game to be executed for the pseudo stock release effect (stock release game) is determined as a fixed number of games according to the number of ART games. For example, if the number of ART games is 200G, this stock release game is for 101G for one set, for 300G, for 101G and 201G for two sets, and for 400G, for 3 sets. 101G, 201G, and 301G are determined. When determining the reel effect scenario, the main control unit 400 creates a “reel effect scenario command” that can specify the content of the reel effect scenario and an “ART game number command” that can specify the current ART game number. Then, these commands are sent to the effect control unit 410.

  The effect control unit 410 determines what game the pseudo stock acquisition effect is to be executed (how many G is the stock notification game) based on information included in the ART game start command. As the stock notification game, one or a plurality of stock notification games are determined according to the number of ART games. Then, it is determined how many “acquired stock numbers (notification stock numbers)” to be notified in the pseudo stock acquisition effect (stock notification effect 6x described later) related to the determined stock notification game. Thereby, a series of effect scenarios during the present ART game is determined.

  With regard to the “notification stock number”, for example, if the above-mentioned ART game number is “500G”, a total of 5 sets (1 set of guaranteed games + 4 sets, a total of 5 sets (500G)) should be notified. Therefore, it is necessary to notify the number of acquired stocks “4.” Therefore, for example, when the stock notification game is performed four times, that is, when the number of occurrences of the pseudo stock acquisition effect is four, the pseudo stock acquisition is performed four times. The number of notification stocks in each pseudo stock acquisition effect is determined so that the total number of stocks to be notified in the effect is “4.” In this example, the total number of acquired stocks is four times in four pseudo stock acquisition effects. Since the notification is made, it may be determined that the number of acquired stock “1” is notified in each pseudo stock acquisition effect.

  Further, in the case of informing the total number of acquired stocks of “4”, for example, when the stock notification game is 3 times, that is, when the number of occurrences of the pseudo stock acquisition effect is 3 times, The number of notification stocks for each pseudo stock acquisition effect is determined so that the total is four. For example, two pieces are notified in the first pseudo stock acquisition effect, and one each is notified in the second, third and third pseudo stock acquisition effects.

  When the number of occurrences of the pseudo stock acquisition effect is two, the number of notification stocks for each pseudo stock acquisition effect is determined so that the total number of acquired stocks is four in the two times (for example, 1 In the second and second pseudo stock acquisition effects, 2 are each notified), and if the pseudo stock acquisition effect is only once, it is determined that the number of acquired stocks will be 4 at that time. The number of notification stocks is determined according to the number of ART games (number of set continuations) and the number of occurrences of pseudo stock acquisition effects. It should be noted that what number of notification stocks are notified in one or a plurality of pseudo stock acquisition effects can be determined as appropriate.

(C-2-1. Production of pseudo stock according to winning role)
Further, as a characteristic point of the “stock notification type”, the effect mode of the “pseudo stock acquisition effect” is different depending on the winning combination in the stock notification game.

  Specifically, (a) When the production replay type is won, the “type assist notification” (“Aim for 777!” And 7 Lip Navi (this announcement) is generated), “Red 7 pattern assortment” Is urged to stop the player, and the pseudo stock acquisition effect appears at the timing of the stop of the entire body (see FIG. 16A described later).

  On the other hand, (b) when the push order bell type is won, unlike the case where the above-mentioned production replay is won, the “middle bell navigation (push (Successful answer) ”is generated (in particular, the effect“ Aim for the bell !! ”does not appear), and the pseudo stock acquisition effect appears (not shown in the figure) when all cylinders stop. (C) In addition, if any of the “unsuccessful push order” “weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, common bell A or common bell B” (lottery numbers 23 to 28) is won, Then, a “role classification notification effect” for notifying the role type elected this time is displayed, and a pseudo stock acquisition effect is displayed at the timing of stopping the entire body (not shown). (D) In the case of lose (winning number 0) or normal replay (winning number 1), only the background display that does not generate any role type notification or assist notification is displayed, and the pseudo stock acquisition effect is triggered by the stop of the entire body. Appear (not shown). In other words, when a combination other than the effect replay type is won, the effect mode that appears in the normal game (non-stock notification game) and the stock notification game during the ART game are the same.

  That is, in a specific game in the middle of a game period in which one set ends (a game in the middle of a set), when an effect replay type is won, an “7-pattern set” with an impact is derived and a stock acquisition is notified as a blessing effect. To do. On the other hand, in the case of a winning combination other than that, a pseudo stock acquisition effect is suddenly displayed to inform the player of the stock acquisition shockingly. However, in the cases of (b), (c), and (d) described above, “chance! (High expectation)” and “chance may be?” Triggered by the start of the stock notification game or other non-stock notification game! “Low)” or the like may be displayed, and a “stock acquisition expectation effect” may be displayed that expects a pseudo stock acquisition effect to occur. In this case, the appearance probability is relatively higher in the case of the stock notification game than in the non-stock notification game.

  As described above, in the case of the “stock notification type”, the “stock acquisition” by the pseudo stock acquisition effect is notified, so that at least another “1 set (100G)” is guaranteed. When the present set end game is reached without the occurrence of the pseudo stock acquisition effect, the ART game is ended with the end of the game of the set. The best part of the above “stock notification type” is that the set is determined by how many times the pseudo stock acquisition effect is generated. You can enjoy the game.

(B-3. Specific example of stock notification type: FIGS. 10A to 10C)
Next, specific examples of the stock notification type will be described with reference to FIGS. 10A to 10C and FIGS. 16A to 16D. FIG. 10A to FIG. 10C representatively show cases in which 500G (specific example 7), 300G (specific example 8), and 100G (specific example 9) are determined by the ART game number lottery as an example of the stock notification type. It is a thing. FIG. 16A to FIG. 16C show an example of the production mode developed during the ART game. The explanation mainly serves to explain the pseudo stock acquisition effect, the fake pseudo stock acquisition effect, and the pseudo stock release effect. FIG.

(Specific example 7: 500G case)
First, with reference to FIG. 10A and FIGS. 16A to 16C, a case where the number of ART games is “500G” (specific example 7) will be described.

  In specific example 7 of FIG. 10A, the number of ART games is “500G”, and the stock notification game (the game in which the pseudo stock acquisition effect is generated) is “30G, 80G, 280G, and 380G” for a total of 4 times (multiple times), Case of production scenario (1 set of guarantee game + 4 sets) scheduled for a total of 4 times (multiple times) of “101G, 201G, 301G and 401G” as stock release game (next game at the end of 1 set) 5 sets (5 ARTs, 500G in total)).

(0G: Start of this ART game)
Referring to FIG. 10A and FIG. 16A, when the ART game is started, first, as the (0Gth) effect mode at the start of the ART game, along with the light effect and the sound effect, the liquid crystal screen 6a has FIG. 1) As shown, "game state notification effect 6y", "acquired number notification effect 6b", "remaining game number notification effect 6c", "digested game number notification effect 6d", "story effect (character effect) 6e" An effect such as “background effect (not shown)” is displayed. “Acquired number notification effect 6b”, “Remaining game number notification effect 6c”, “Digested game number notification effect 6d”, “Character effect 6e”, “Set number notification effect 6r”, “Background effect”, etc. Similar to what is described in the type, the contents of the presentation can change depending on the game progress.

(30G: Stock notification game (first time))
Then, 29G is digested (not shown), and the game progresses to the 30th G (stock notification game) in FIG. 16A (2). In the 30th G, as shown in the figure, the obtained number notification effect 6b, the remaining game number notification effect 6c, and the digested game number notification effect 6d are displayed as information images indicating the current game situation, respectively “60 GET” and “70 ( “There is at least“ 70G ”of the remaining ART game)” and “30 (current number of digest games)” are displayed. In addition, an information image of “encounter 1” indicating the first set is displayed in the set number notification effect 6r.

(Pseudo stock acquisition effect mode: FIG. 16A (2))
The 30th G is a “stock notification game” in which a pseudo stock acquisition effect appears. In the example shown in the drawing, a case where “Direction Replay 123” is selected as the winning combination and “Assistance Replay 123” is presented and an assist notification 6g of “7 Lip Navi (this announcement)” appears. Here, since the winning combination in the notification game is the effect replay type, “7 Lip Navi (this notice)” corresponding to the selected effect replay is displayed as the assist notification. However, at this stage, it is a “pseudo stock acquisition effect of Gasse (to be described later, FIG. 10B, Example 8 and FIG. 16D)” that notifies the stock acquisition failure, or “true pseudo” that notifies the stock acquisition. Whether or not it is a “stock acquisition production” is a production mode that is unclear to the player, so that the player does not realize the true or false of the stock acquisition production until all the cylinders stop It has become.

  When the player stops the stop button 12 according to the above “assist notification 6g” (when all the torso is stopped), “red 7 symbol alignment (7 replays)” on the effective winning line on the torso side is derived and displayed. (FIG. 16A (2a)) As a part of the pseudo stock acquisition effect, the “stock notification effect 6x” that appears as if the stock was acquired in a pseudo manner appears on the liquid crystal screen 6a. For example, as shown in FIG. 16A (2c), “STOCK + 1” is largely displayed at the center of the liquid crystal screen 6a. Note that the number of stocks notified by the stock notification effect 6x is not limited to one, and a plurality of stock numbers may be notified. Then, when the stock acquisition is notified by the stock notification effect 6x, the “stock number notification effect 6s” appears. This stock number notification effect 6s is an effect mode for notifying information related to the current stock number. In the example shown in the drawing, it is indicated that there is one current stock number. Thereby, the player can know at least that one more set of the ART game is continued (the total number of continued games 200G is guaranteed).

  It should be noted that, in the stock notification game, even if the player fails to hold on and the winning combination is missed, the “stock notification effect 6x” appears and the set acquisition is notified. It has become.

(80G: Stock notification game (second time)
The progress of the game moves to FIG. 16B (3), the 80G is a second stock notification game, and the same pseudo stock acquisition effect as the 30G described above appears. In the example shown in the figure, the case where the effect replay 123 is won is illustrated as in the 30th G. When stock acquisition is notified by the current stock notification effect 6x, the current stock acquisition number “1” is added to the display value “1” of the stock number notification effect 6s, and the display value is changed to “2”. (Update) is displayed (FIG. 16B (3c)). Thereby, the player can know that at least two sets of the ART game continue (the total number of continued games 300G is guaranteed).

(100G: 1st set end game)
The game progress shifts to FIG. 16B (4), and in the 100G, which is the first set end game (ART 1st end game), it is shown that the current set game is ended by the “character effect 6e” and the background effect. “Set end effect” is notified (FIG. 16B (4a)).

(101G: Stock release game)
The game progresses to FIG. 16C (5), and the 101G game, which is the next game after the first set of end games, is a “stock release game” in which a pseudo stock release effect appears. It is a game. In the stock release game, an “SP1 freeze” occurs when the start lever 11 is operated, and this ART game is continued for another set by the freeze effect (pseudo-stock release effect) (a total of 200G is guaranteed) To be notified). The execution control of the SP1 freeze is substantially the same as the processing content related to the SP freeze described in the set notification type, and is omitted to avoid duplication.

(Production mode during SP1 freeze (pseudo-stock release production): FIG. 16C (5))
Next, a freeze effect mode (pseudo stock discharge effect) during SP1 freeze will be described with reference to FIG. 16C. FIG. 16C (5) shows an example of the pseudo stock discharge effect. This pseudo stock release effect is similar to the “set continuation notice effect (result notification effect 6m: FIG. 15B (3e))” in FIG. 15B (3) described in the set notification type in that the set continuation effect is notified. It is a content.

  In the case of this example, the above-mentioned “SP1 freeze” reel effect is used, and the reel effect by the irregular rotation operation and the effect during the freeze accompanying the reel effect are used, and the pseudo stock release effect is made to appear. Specifically, irregular rotating operation of each cylinder is started, and as shown in FIG. 16C (5a), “single red 7 symbols” is temporarily stopped on the middle horizontal line, and this temporarily stopped state is maintained for a predetermined time. To do. The temporary stop state of “single red 7 symbols aligned” is maintained until the freeze time SPt ends. Also, as shown in FIG. 16C (5b), as an effect during the freezing operation and a temporary stop display of “single red 7 symbols”, as a freeze effect, an impact sound by the sound effect and a flash effect by the light effect, as shown in FIG. 16C (5b) An information image “ART 2nd start” indicating that the second set has started is displayed together with a “continuation” information image at the center of 6a (continuation notification effect 6t). At this time, for the remaining game number notification effect 6c, “99G” obtained by subtracting one game of this time from the number of games 100G of one set notified this time is added to the remaining ART game currently displayed. It is changed (updated) to the updated value, and the digest game number notification effect 6d is changed and displayed to the value obtained by adding the current one game. Here, the remaining game number notification effect 6c is changed to the display of “99” obtained by adding the above-mentioned “99G” to the current remaining ART game “0G”, and the digest game number notification effect 6d adds the current one game. The display is changed to “101”. In addition, the stock number notification effect 6s is changed and displayed to a value “1” obtained by subtracting 1 from the number of stocks currently displayed (a stock is pseudo-released), and the set number notification effect 6r is Is changed to “encounter 2” indicating that the number of sets is the second set. When the freeze time SPt ends, each cylinder is controlled to a normal rotation operation and the stop operation of the stop button 12 is allowed (FIGS. 16C (5c) and (5d)).

  That is, in the case of this example, the production result (set continuation notification) of the pseudo stock release effect is one set according to a series of production modes of “single red 7 symbol alignment” by the reel production and “continuation notification production 6t” accompanying the reel production. Continuation (stock release) is reported.

(102G ~ 499G eyes)
Next, with reference to FIG. 10A, an effect scenario of the 102nd to 499th G will be described. In this example, as described above, the number of ART games is “500G”, the stock notification game is “30G, 80G, 280G, and 380G”, and the stock release game is “101G, 201G, 301G, and 401G” Since the case of the production scenario scheduled for a total of 4 times (a plurality of times) of “eye” is described, the development of the production scenario of the 102G to 499G is as follows.

  As shown in FIG. 10A, the stock notification game does not exist between the start and end of the second set (101G to 200G), and the stock acquisition effect does not occur. Therefore, at the 201G, one stock acquired in the second stock notification game (80G) will be released (occurrence of set continuation notification due to the pseudo stock release effect), thereby entering the third set (ART 3rd) To do. With this stock release, the number of stocks becomes “zero”.

  However, the third stock notification game arrives at 280G in the middle of the third set, and it is notified that the pseudo stock acquisition effect has appeared and the stock number “1” is acquired, and the stock number becomes “1”. .

  Next, at the 301G, which is the starting game of the fourth set (ART 4th), one stock acquired at the 280G is released, and the fourth set (ART 4th) is entered. With this stock release, the number of stocks becomes “zero”.

  However, it is informed that the fourth stock notification game has arrived at 380G in the middle of the fourth set, the pseudo stock acquisition effect has appeared, and the stock number “1” has been acquired.

  Next, in the 501G, which is the starting game of the fifth set (ART 5th), one stock acquired in the 380G is released, thereby entering the 5th set (ART 5th). With this stock release, the number of stocks becomes “zero” again. After that, until the fifth set is completed (401G to 500G), the stock notification game does not exist and the stock acquisition effect does not occur. That is, at the end of the fifth set, the number of stocks remains “zero”, and the player knows that the current ART game has ended due to this fact.

  Therefore, the “real ART end effect” is generated at the 500th G when the fifth set ends, and the current real ART game is ended with the 500G. For example, as shown in FIG. 16D (2), which will be described later, the information image of “End”, the number of game medals finally obtained, and the number of times of final set (5 sets in this example) are notified. (This ART end effect 6z).

(Example 8: 300G case)
Next, the case where the number of ART games is “300G” (specific example 8) will be described with reference to FIG. 10B. In addition, about the content substantially the same as the content of above-mentioned specific example 7, in order to avoid duplication description, it demonstrates, abbreviate | omitting suitably.

  In specific example 8 of FIG. 10B, the number of ART games is “300G”, the stock notification game is “99G, 160G, 250G” three times in total, and the stock release game is “101G, 201G” two times in total ( This is an example of a production scenario in which a total of 3 sets (1 set of guarantee games + 2 sets (ART 3 series, total continuation number 300G)) is scheduled.

(Gase's pseudo stock acquisition effect: FIG. 10B, FIG. 16D)
The specific example 8 differs from the specific example 7 in that the stock notification game includes a game in which a “gase (fake) pseudo stock acquisition effect” is generated (a stock notification game for the case). In this example, the 99G and 160G games are “true pseudo stock acquisition effects” notification games, and the 250G eye is a “Gasse pseudo stock acquisition effects” notification games. As shown in FIG. 16D (1), this “Gase's pseudo stock acquisition effect” is, for example, as shown in FIG. 16A (2) and FIG. 16B (3), when the effect replay type is won. ”Is displayed, but the assist notification shows“ assist notification for lie notification 6g ”, and as a result of the production,“ red 7 symbol alignment ”is not established, and the acquired stock is zero (stock not acquired) Notification) (FIG. 16D (1b) to (1c)).

  Gase's pseudo stock acquisition effect may appear not only once but multiple times. In addition, in this example, when winning the production replay type, an example in which a pseudo stock acquisition production of Gasse is displayed has been explained. However, even if it is a winning role (including losing) other than the production replay, Acquired production may appear. In this case, in order to reinforce the player's continuation expectation, the above "stock acquisition expectation effect" will be displayed, and the game will be added to the game while expecting whether the game will remain on the inside. It is preferable to make it appear.

  In the case of this example, in the 101G, which is the starting game of the second set (ART 3rd), one stock acquired in the 160G at the 99G is released, and this enters the second set (ART 2nd). As a result, the number of stocks becomes “zero”. However, at 160G, it is notified that the pseudo stock acquisition effect has appeared again and the stock number “1” has been acquired, and the stock number becomes “1”.

  Then, in the 201G, which is the starting game of the third set (ART 3rd), one stock acquired in the 160G is released, so that the third set (ART 3rd) is entered, and again the stock The number becomes “zero”. Thereafter (202G to 300G), there is no true stock notification game, and the game proceeds without generating a true pseudo stock acquisition effect (the “Gase pseudo stock acquisition effect” occurs at 250G). The 300th G, which is the end of the third set with the number “zero”, is reached.

  Then, the “real ART end effect 6z” shown in FIG. 16D (2) is generated at the 300Gth, and the current real ART game is terminated with the 300Gth.

(Variation 1 of stock notification type)
In the present embodiment, an example in which the stock notification game includes a “stock notification game for gasses” in advance (an example in which a true stock notification game and a stock notification game for gasses are included when creating a production scenario) Although the present invention is not limited to this, the planned number of true stock notification games is determined when determining the production scenario, and the planned number of stock notification games for the gaze is determined by the production scenario. It is good also as a structure which can be determined independently separately from. Specifically, in any one or a plurality of games other than the stock notification game that generates a true pseudo stock acquisition effect (in this example, games other than the 99G and 160G games), a predetermined gasse lottery by the effect control unit 410 It can be configured so as to be determinable. In other words, the production scenario at the start of this ART does not include the stock notification game for the gaze, only the true stock notification game is determined, and in other games, a predetermined gasse lottery (for example, depending on the winning combination) If the player wins this, the Gase pseudo-stock acquisition effect can be configured to appear.

(Specific example 9: 100G case)
Next, with reference to FIG. 10C, the case where the number of ART games is “100G” (specific example 9) will be described. Specific example 9 in FIG. 10C shows a case where the game ends in the first set (100G guaranteed game). In the case of this example, the ART game is ended with the first set of end games (100G) without generating a stock acquisition effect. However, before the end of the first set, a pseudo stock acquisition effect of Gasse may be displayed and the player's continuation expectation may be given.

  It is as follows when the preferable form of 3rd Embodiment is put together. Note that components substantially the same as those in the second embodiment are omitted as appropriate.

  In addition, the present embodiment can be a swivel type gaming machine according to any one of the above (1) to (4) having the configuration of the “normal addition notification mode”.

[Fourth Notification Mode (Fourth Embodiment)]
(D-1. Composite notification type: FIGS. 11A and 11B)
Next, with reference to FIG. 11A and FIG. 11B, the “composite notification type” of the fourth notification mode (fourth embodiment) according to the present invention will be described in detail. Here, the contents substantially the same as the contents of the above “pseudo additional notification type” and “set notification type” will be described while being omitted as appropriate in order to avoid duplication, and have substantially the same functions. Elements will be described using the same reference numerals.

(D-2. Overview of combined notification type)
This “composite type notification type” is a case of using the freeze effect (reel effect) for the method of increasing the number of pseudo-addition games (freeze effect), and without using the freeze effect. A case (non-freeze pseudo-addition effect) performed by a non-freeze effect by the side game result and effect means is mixed. In this respect, it is greatly different from the “pseudo additional notification type” in which there is no additional notification by freeze. However, this combined notification type is also a “finished race type” production scenario similar to the “pseudo additional notification type” and “set notification type”.

  In addition, the effect mode relating to the “addition notification” is basically an effect mode including the same content as the “additional game number notification effect 6h” shown in FIG. 14A (3b). The pseudo extra effect is substantially the same as the “pseudo extra effect” described in the “pseudo extra notification type”. In the following, a game in which a freeze pseudo addition effect is generated is referred to as a “freeze addition notification game”, and a game in which a non-freeze pseudo addition effect is generated is simply referred to as an “addition notification game”.

(D-3. Specific example of composite notification type: FIGS. 11A and 11B)
Next, the composite notification type will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 11A and 11B. FIG. 11A representatively shows an example of an effect scenario when 1200G is determined by the present ART game number lottery, and FIG. It is explanatory drawing.

  In order to facilitate the understanding of the composite notification type, first, the processing content related to notification control of pseudo-addition notification will be described with reference to FIG. 11B.

  The flow of processing for determining the production scenario according to the present embodiment is as follows. Referring to FIG. 11B, when the AT lottery is won, the main control unit 400 executes an ART game number lottery in the winning game to determine the ART game number (S101), and then performs “reel effect scenario lottery”. Execute (S102).

  In the “reel effect scenario lottery”, the effect scenario (reel effect scenario) related to freeze, such as what freeze type is generated in what game, is determined based on the number of ART games determined in the ART game number lottery. (S103). There are many production scenarios for reel production scenarios, so that even if the number of ART games is the same, the production of reel production will be in various cases. To be determined. The description of other examples is omitted in order to avoid duplication, but for example, the example of FIG. 11A is merely an example of a production scenario, and there are a number of different freeze-up notification games depending on the number of the same or different ART games. A production scenario is provided. In the same way, there are also a number of presentation scenarios with different numbers of additional notification games and pseudo-additional games, as well as lottery etc. It is determined selectively by.

(Freeze type for reel production scenario lottery)
In the present embodiment, “N freeze (all-round torso freeze)” without irregular rotation operation and “SP freeze (for example, SP1 freeze)” with irregular rotation operation are selected as the reel production scenario lottery targets. Multiple types of freeze are included. When a freeze occurs during this ART game, a pseudo-addition effect is generated as an effect during the freeze, and a predetermined number of pseudo-addition games is notified. It should be noted that SP freeze is more flashy with an irregular rotation action than N freeze, and if SP freeze occurs, the number of extra games is relatively higher than when N freeze occurs. The number is reported.

(Reel production scenario typical example)
In the above “reel production scenario”, for example,
(Α) When the number of ART games is 100G, a reel effect scenario for 100G that “no freeze” occurs,
(Β) In the case where the number of ART games is 200G, the first scenario “not to generate freeze”, the second scenario “performs N-freeze once between 50 and 150G”, and “SP between 50 and 100G” 200G reel production scenario including 3rd scenario etc. “Freeze once”
(Γ) In the case of 300G, the first scenario “does not generate freeze”, the second scenario “performs N freeze once between 50 and 100G”, and the SP freeze occurs once between 50 and 100G “The third scenario, and“ one N-freeze between the 50th and 100th G and one SP freeze between the 101st and 150th G ”. The fourth scenario (the first to third scenarios are the same as in the 200G case) ) Scenario for reel production for 300G including
(The explanation of the number of other ART games is omitted), and various reel production scenarios are determined according to the number of ART games. Basically, the greater the number of ART games, the more the number of occurrences of freezes. Will increase. In the above scenario example, for example, the 300G reel effect scenario includes a 200G reel effect scenario and one or more types of common scenarios, and a common scenario is selected between 200G and 300G. It is configured to be possible. That is, a common reel effect scenario may be developed by one ART game number and another ART game number. Therefore, for example, in a case where a reel effect scenario of “perform 50 freezes to 100G for N freezes” is selected, it is determined that the number of ART games is 200G or 300G only by the occurrence of the N freezes. Cannot distinguish. This prevents the player from becoming aware of the number of ART games this time, and prevents this ART game from becoming monotonous or presenting a mere digestive game, thereby reducing the gaming interest of the player. ing.

  In this embodiment, the maximum number of occurrences of freeze is determined according to the number of ART games in order not to cause freeze in the dark clouds. For example, when the number of ART games is 200G, the maximum number of occurrences of N freeze is 2 times, and the maximum number of occurrences of SP freeze is 1. When the number of ART games is 300G, the maximum number of occurrences of N freeze is Is twice, and the maximum number of SP freeze occurrences is twice. Further, instead of limiting the maximum number of occurrences of each freeze type, the total maximum number of occurrences of freezes may be limited. For example, if the number of ART games is 200G, “the maximum maximum number of occurrences of freezing is up to 3 times”, and within that range, for example, “N freezing twice and SP freezing once” may be used. , “N freeze once, SP freeze twice”, “SP freeze three times”, or “N freeze three times”.

  In the example of the “reel effect scenario” shown in FIG. 11A and FIG. 11B, as an example of the reel effect scenario of the ART game number 1200G, for example, N freeze is generated at 510G (only once) and SP freeze is at 150G ( A case (hereinafter referred to as “reel effect scenario A”) in which a total of two times of the first time) and 880G (second time) is generated is illustrated.

  When determining the reel effect scenario, the main control unit 400 sends an “ART game number command” that can specify the number of ART games and a “reel effect scenario command” that can specify the reel effect scenario to the effect control unit 410. Transmit (S104).

  The effect control unit 410 determines an effect scenario (hereinafter referred to as “out-of-game scenario”) related to an extra notification developed during the ART game based on information included in the ART game number command and the reel effect scenario command. .

  The “development scenario” includes a “freeze-time production scenario (a series of production scenarios related to a freeze pseudo-addition production)” that indicates what kind of pseudo-superimposition effect is to be generated in the freeze addition announcement game. “Non-freeze effect scenario (a series of effect scenarios related to non-freeze pseudo-addition effect)” as to which game to generate “non-freeze pseudo-addition effect” for informing the number of pseudo-addition games in the add-on notification game The production control unit 410 determines these production scenarios.

  The effect control unit 410 first determines the “freeze-time effect scenario” based on the current reel effect scenario (reel effect scenario A) (S112). In the case of this example, as an example of the effect scenario at the time of freeze, an additional 400G is notified in the first SP freeze of the 150G, an additional 100G is notified in the N freeze of the 510G, and an additional is added in the second SP freeze of the 880G. A case in which 300G is notified and the total pseudo-addition game number 800G by the freeze pseudo-addition effect is determined is shown (see S112 in FIG. 11B).

  Next, the effect control unit 410 determines a “non-freeze effect scenario” (S113). This non-freezing effect scenario is determined based on the number of ART games and the above-described freezing effect scenario. Specifically, the contents of the effect scenario at the time of freeze (how many games the freeze-informing notification game is, how many games are added (if it is executed multiple times, how many games are added) In consideration of the “non-freeze pseudo-addition effect”, the content of the effect such as “how many games will be added to the informing game and what pseudo-addition game number to be notified” is determined.

  In the case of this example, since a total of 800G is informed by the pseudo-addition performance at the time of freezing, the non-freeze-time production scenario is made so that the remaining 300G except for the guarantee game 100G is informed by the non-freeze pseudo-addition effect. It has come to be decided. However, when the non-freeze pseudo-addition effect is executed a plurality of times, the number of ART games to be notified separately in the plurality of times as in the “pseudo-addition notification type” already described (in this example, the above-described case) (300G) is notified, and the internal number of remaining ART games and the number of remaining ART games on the effect display (the value of the remaining game number notification effect 6c) do not occur. Then, the number of additional games to be notified (number of pseudo additional games) is determined. In the case of this example, the non-freeze pseudo-addition effect is displayed regardless of the internal lottery result of the extra notification game. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a notification control mode similar to the “pseudo superimposition notification type” can be employed. Specifically, it is possible to adopt a configuration in which a pseudo-superior effect can be made available when a predetermined additional notification trigger (for example, an effect replay type) is won. Also, in the case of this configuration, in the case where the additional information triggering role is not won in the additional information game (when an event in which the pseudo additional effect cannot be performed occurs in the additional information game), the “pseudo additional information type” A similar notification control mode can be employed (see “A-2-1. When the additional notification trigger is not won in the additional notification game”).

  In the case of this example, as an example of the non-freeze production scenario, the non-freeze pseudo-superior effect of the 100G and 650G (second superimposition information game) is the non-freeze pseudo-superior effect of the 80Gth (first extra announcement game). A case in which a scenario of 200G notification (total notification game number 300G by non-freeze pseudo-addition effect) is determined is shown (see S113 in FIG. 11B).

  As described above, when the effect scenario at the time of freezing and the effect scenario at the time of non-freezing are determined, a series of “departure scenarios” to be developed during the ART game is determined. The effect control unit 410 sets a payout scenario in the payout scenario storage area of the RAM 243 (S114). Thereafter, the appearance scenario is referred to according to the progress of the ART game, and various effects such as a pseudo-addition effect are realized.

  Summarizing the game-out scenario of this example, the production aspect related to the pseudo-addition notification during this ART game is 80G (100G addition by non-freeze pseudo-addition production), 150G (SP freeze based on pseudo-price addition production) 400G on top), 510G on top (100G on top of N-freeze pseudo-overlay effect), 650G (200G on top of non-freeze top-up effect), and 880G (300G on top of SP freeze) Thus, this ART game is executed in which an internal ART game number of 1200G is executed.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 11A, a description will be given of a pseudo-uplifting effect developed along the “out of ball scenario”. The contents of specific examples 1 to 3 of “addition notification type” (FIGS. 8A to 8C) and the substantially same contents as specific examples 7 to 9 (FIGS. 10A to 10C) of “stock notification type” are duplicated. The description will be omitted as appropriate to avoid the description, and will be described with reference to FIGS.

(0G: Start of this ART game)
When this ART game is started, first, as the (0Gth) effect mode at the start of this ART game, along with the light effect and the sound effect, on the liquid crystal screen 6a, as shown in FIG. "Effect 6y", "Acquired number notification effect 6b", "Remaining game number notification effect 6c", "Digested game number notification effect 6d", "Story effect (character effect) 6e", "Background effect (not shown)", etc. Is displayed. “Acquired number notification effect 6b”, “Remaining game number notification effect 6c”, “Digested game number notification effect 6d”, “Character effect 6e”, and “Background effect” are the same as those described in the pseudo additional notification type. The contents of the production can change according to the game progress status.

(Eighty-G: Additional notification game)
In the 80th G, which is an additional notification game, a “non-freeze simulated additional effect” appears (S212 in FIG. 11B). This production mode is substantially the same production mode as shown in FIG. 14A (3). Here, “+ 100G” is notified as the number of pseudo-addition games in accordance with the game appearance scenario. By this additional notification, at least a total of 200G (guaranteed game number 100G + current additional 100G) is confirmed to be continued.

  Note that the non-freeze pseudo-enhancement effect appears regardless of the internal lottery result, but can be configured in the same manner as the above-described “addition notification type modification 2”. Specifically, (i) when the production replay type is won, as in the first notification form (pseudo addition notification type) shown in FIG. ”And 7 rip navigator (this announcement)), and when all the trunks stop, the“ red 7 symbol set ”with impact is derived and displayed, and a pseudo-addition game is announced in a congratulatory direction. Other than the superimposing notification game, “red 7 symbol set” is not derived and displayed in the dark clouds, so “lie notification” is given. Also, (b) when the push order bell type is won, unlike the case where the above-mentioned effect replay is won, the “middle bell navigation (push order) Correct answer) "is generated, and a pseudo-addition effect (additional notification) is made to appear when all the cylinders stop. (C) In addition, if any of the “unsuccessful push order” “weak watermelon, strong watermelon, weak cherry, strong cherry, common bell A or common bell B” (lottery numbers 23 to 28) is won, As shown, a “role classification notification effect” for notifying the role type won this time is displayed, and a pseudo-addition effect is displayed with the stop of the entire body as a trigger. (D) In the case of lose (winning number 0) or normal replay (winning number 1), only a background display that does not generate any role type notification effect or assist notification is displayed, and a pseudo-addition effect is created when all body stops. Make it appear. That is, when the production replay type is won, “7-pattern matching” having an impact is derived, and an additional notification is executed in a blessing production. On the other hand, in the case of a winning combination other than that, it is possible to suddenly execute an extra notification and inform the player of the extra impact. However, in the cases of (b), (c), and (d) described above, when the game is started, a “chance!” Or the like is displayed, and an “expected expectation effect” is displayed to expect the occurrence of a pseudo-addition effect. Also good.

(150G: Freeze addition notification game (first time))
In the 150th game, where the game progresses and becomes an additional notification game, “SP1 freeze (freeze pseudo-addition effect)” appears according to the appearance game (see S201 and S211 in FIG. 11B). During the SP1 freeze, first, a blackout effect appears during the all-turn cylinder stationary state at the time of operating the start lever, and thereafter, as shown in FIG. 16C (5a), “single 7 assortment” is temporarily stopped and displayed. At the same time, as an effect corresponding to FIG. 16C (5b), “additional game number notification effect 6h” shown in FIG. 14A (3b) appears. In the added game number notification effect 6h, “+ 400G”, which is a large amount added (for example, 300G or more added), is notified. For example, a congratulatory effect display such as “+ 400GGET! Excellent!” Indicating a large amount of addition appears in the center of the liquid crystal screen 6a. With this addition notification, the continuation confirmation of at least a total of 600G (100G of guaranteed games 100G + 80G addition 100G + this addition 400G) is notified. In addition, as described above for the control of the SP freeze, the main control unit 400 transmits a freeze command (here, a command for designating the SP1 freeze) and executes a reel effect related to the freeze for a predetermined freeze time. Control. Based on the information included in the freeze command, the effect control unit 410 controls the appearance of the pseudo-addition effect during freeze (such as the blackout effect described above, the added game number notification effect 6h, etc.) (S201, S211).

(510G: Freeze addition notification game (second time))
In the 510G, when the game further progresses and becomes an additional notification game, “N Freeze”, which is a second freeze pseudo-addition effect, appears in accordance with the payout scenario (see S201 and S211 in FIG. 11B). Since this N-freeze is a reel effect related to the state where all the cylinders are stationary, first, a blackout effect appears at the time of operating the start lever, and then the “addition game number notification” shown in FIG. 14A (3b) The “production 6h” appears and “+ 100G” is notified. By this additional notification, the continuation confirmation of at least a total of 700G (guaranteed game number 100G + 80G additional 100G + 150G additional 400G + current additional 100G) is notified.

(650G eyes: Additional information game)
Further, the game progresses and the second “non-freeze pseudo-addition effect” appears in the 650G game, which is an additional notification game (see S212 in FIG. 11B). The effect mode of the game is substantially the same as the 80G eye. Here, “+ 200G” is notified as the number of pseudo-addition games. By this addition notification, the continuation confirmation of at least a total of 900G (guaranteed game number 100G + 80G addition 100G + 150G addition 400G + 510G addition 100G + current addition 200G) is notified.

(Eighty-eighth G: Freeze addition notification game)
Furthermore, at the 880Gth when the game further progresses and becomes a freeze addition game, “SP1 Freeze”, which is the third freeze pseudo-addition effect, appears according to the payout scenario (see S201 and S211 in FIG. 11B). The effect mode of the game is substantially the same as the 150G eye. Here, “+ 300G! Excellent!”, Which is a large amount of addition, is notified. With this additional notification, it is notified that the maximum number of ART games is 1200G (guaranteed game number 100G + 80G additional 100G + 150G additional 400G + 510G additional 100G + 650G additional 200G + current additional 300G).

(881G-1200G eyes: this ART game end game)
In the case of this example, from the 881Gth onward, it is a play-out scenario in which there is no additional notification game and no freeze additional notification game. Therefore, after the 881Gth, it is placed under control that does not generate any pseudo-addition effect. Then, at the 1200th G, which is an ART end game, for example, “this ART end effect (see, for example, FIG. 14B (5a))” informed of the information image of “end”, the number of game medals finally acquired, and the like. The present ART game is ended with the end of the 1200th G.

The above described spinning machine according to any one of (1) to (7) above.

  In addition, the present embodiment can be a swivel type gaming machine according to the above (8), which has the configuration of the “normal addition notification mode”.

[Fifth Notification Mode (Fifth Embodiment)]
(E-1. ST notification type: FIG. 12A to FIG. 12C, FIG. 17A, FIG. 17B)
Next, with reference to FIGS. 12A to 12C, FIGS. 17A and 17B, the “ST notification type” of the fifth notification mode (fifth embodiment) according to the present invention will be described in detail.

(E-2. Overview of ST notification type)
This “ST notification type” is different from the above “pseudo additional notification type” and the like during a special game period “ST section (ST mode)” (in this example, the ST section is set as one set 50G). In addition, when the “notification per ST” occurs, a new ST section is started (50G is started as a new ST section). It informs the continuation of the game. In other words, the ART game is configured to continue in a pseudo manner by adding a pseudo-addition game of “one set 50G” one or more times. The ST notification type according to the present embodiment is, for example, a revolving type gaming machine having a gaming property that a new ST will continue if the AT lottery is won in the high probability AT winning state (corresponding to the ST section). It has been reproduced in a pseudo manner. In this respect, this example is referred to as “ST notification type”.

  In order to facilitate understanding of the “ST notification type”, an outline thereof will be described first. Here, the substantially same contents as the contents of the above “pseudo addition notification type” will be described while being omitted as appropriate in order to avoid duplication, and substantially the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals. is there. Further, regarding the ST notification type according to the present embodiment, the number of ART games subject to the “real ART game number lottery” shown in FIG. Specifically, 100G (for guaranteed games), 110G, 120G, 1300G, 140G, 150G,..., 1150G, 1160G, 1170G, 1180G, 1190G, and 1200G are the numbers of ART games to be drawn.

  In the ST notification type according to the present embodiment, during the first 50G as an initial game, a “pseudo hit section (pseudo hit game)”, which is a game before the start of ST, is set (the ART game start to the pseudo hit in FIG. 12A). When the “pseudo hit section” ends, the set section 50G ST section is entered. That is, a total of 100G of the “pseudo hit section” and the initial ST period corresponds to the number of guaranteed games (100G) such as the “addition notification type” and the “stock notification type”. Of course, both the pseudo hit section and the ST section are the actual ART games, and the appearances of the game are made to look different by changing the production.

  When entering the ST section, the ST section with one set 50G is started. When the number of ART games exceeds 100G, the continuation of one set (50G) of the ST section is further notified at the specific number of games in the 50G ST section regardless of the internal lottery result. “Effect per ST (notification per ST)” appears, the continuation of a new ST section (second station) is notified, and a new ST section (second station) is started from the next game (this notification) A new ST section may be started from the game). For example, after the start of this ART game, if notification per ST occurs at the 70th G (from the first ST section to the 20th G), the second game is entered from the 71st G of the next game (for example, FIG. 12A). (Refer to the block frame of notification per ST of 70G)). Further, according to the true number of ART games, such as when a notification per ST occurs in the specific number of games in the second ST section, a new ST section (third series) is started. Thus, the retreat in the ST section is generated one or more times, and the continuation of this ART game is thereby notified.

  That is, when the ST section continues, “pseudo hit section (fixed at 50G) → first ST section (first station) (notification per ST) → ST section (second station) (notice per ST) → ST section (Third station) (notification per ST) → ST section (fourth station) (notification per ST) →... ”, And no effect per ST (notification per ST) occurs in the ST section. If the player leaves the ST section 50G as it is, this ART game ends, and as long as an effect per ST occurs during the ST section, the ST section loops and the ART game continues. It becomes. However, this “ST notification type” is also a “competitive race type” production scenario, and of course, the number of games in the ST section will not be recognized by the player in terms of production. It has become. Therefore, the “ST notification type” also notifies the predetermined number of guaranteed games as the initial number of games at the start of this ART game, like the “pseudo addition notification type” and “set notification type” already described. The number of ART games (number of games determined by lottery of the number of ART games) is not concealed to the player.

  A characteristic point of the “ST notification type” is that the number of games in which the effect per ST (notification per ST) is generated is scheduled. Specifically, at the start of the ART game (which may be at the time of the AT lottery), the number of games in the ART game that the effect per ST is executed (for example, what game and which game The production scenario regarding the production per ST is determined.

  For example, if the number of games at the start of this ART game is “300G”, the production scenario is “70G, 100G, 140G, 170G, 200G, 220G, 230G and 250G” per ST. It is determined that the production will be generated. That is, at the start of this ART game (which may be at the time of AT winning), a game for which an effect per ST is scheduled to be generated is determined based on the number of ART games. In this production scenario, even if the number of ART games is the same, a large number of production scenarios are prepared so that the production of the production per ST can be in various cases. It is selectively determined by the above. In order to avoid duplication, explanations of other examples are omitted, but the above example is merely an example of an effect scenario, and there are many effect scenarios with different games that produce effects per ST. Yes. Hereinafter, the game in which the “per-ST effect” is scheduled to occur will be referred to as a “per-ST notification game”.

  As described above, in the case of the ST notification type, an effect per ST occurs in the notification game per ST and “ST section continuation” is notified, so that at least “one set (50G) ST section” continues. Is guaranteed, and if 50G is consumed without any effects per ST in the ST section, this ART game is ended with the end of the current ST section.

  The best part of the “ST notification type” is whether or not an effect per ST occurs during the ST section, and the player can expect to play one game or one game in the ST section while expecting the generation of the effect per ST. Interesting that the game becomes more tense and the degree of tension increases as the end of the ST section is approaching without any staging effects being generated. This ART game can be provided.

(E-3. Specific examples of ST notification type: FIGS. 12A to 12C, FIGS. 17A, and 17B)
Next, specific examples of the ST notification type will be described with reference to FIGS. 12A to 12C, FIGS. 17A, and 17B. FIGS. 12A to 12C representatively show cases in which 300G (specific example 11), 200G (specific example 12), and 100G (specific example 13) are determined by the ART game number lottery as an example of the ST notification type. It is a thing. FIG. 17A and FIG. 17B show an example of the effect mode developed during the ART game, and are explanatory diagrams for explaining the effect per ST.

(Specific example 11: 500G case)
First, a case where the number of ART games is “300G” (specific example 11) will be described with reference to FIGS. 12A, 17A, and 17B.

  In specific example 11 of FIG. 12A, the number of ART games is “300G” and the notification game per ST is “70G, 100G, 140G, 170G, 200G, 220G, 230G, and 250G” for a total of 8 times ( This is an example of a production scenario in which ST9 Renso is scheduled multiple times).

(0G to 50G: per pseudo)
Referring to FIGS. 12A and 17A, when this ART game is started, first, a “pseudo hit game” is started. This pseudo hit game continues for the 50th G. The effect mode at the start of the pseudo hit game (0G) is the same as the other notification modes, as well as the light effect and the sound effect, as shown in FIG. 17A (1) on the liquid crystal screen 6a. The effects such as “acquired number notification effect 6b”, “remaining game number notification effect 6c”, “digested game number notification effect 6d”, “story effect 6e”, “background effect (not shown)” are displayed. “Acquired number notification effect 6b”, “Remaining game number notification effect 6c”, “Digested game number notification effect 6d”, “Character effect 6e”, “Game state notification effect 6y”, and “Background effect” The production content can change accordingly.

  Then, at the 50th G when the pseudo hit section ends, a “pseudo hit end effect” indicating that the pseudo hit section ends and the ST section starts appears (FIG. 17A (2)). In the figure, as a part of the story production during the pseudo hit game, a strange light beam is emitted from the disk, and a character image representing the appearance of an alien in the mysterious light beam is displayed. In addition, here, as a part of the pseudo-hit end effect, as shown in FIG. 17A (2a), the display value of the remaining game number notification effect 6c is changed to the ST-only display (for example, “ST50” indicating one set 50G) The display is changed: the remaining game number notification effect 6cst), and the “game state notification effect 6y” is changed from “during second type approach encounter” to “third type approach encounter risk”.

(51G: ST section start game)
When the pseudo hit section ends and the 51G game of the next game is reached, the ST section is started. When this ST section is started, as shown in FIG. 17A (3), “character effect 6e”, “game state notification effect 6y”, and the like are changed to the effect mode for the ST section. Specifically, as shown in the figure, the “gaming state notification effect 6y” is changed from the display of “second type approaching encounter” to the display of “third type approaching encounter” indicating the ST section. As the “character effect 6e”, a conversation effect that an alien speaks alien language appears.

(70G: Notification game per ST (first time))
Thereafter, 69G is digested (not shown), and the game progresses to the 70th G in FIG. 17B (4). This game is “notification game per ST”.

  In the 70th G of this example, as shown in the figure, “30” indicating that the information image of “140 GETs” is obtained as the obtained number notification effect 6b and the remaining ST game number is “30G” as the remaining game number notification effect 6c. The information image of “70” indicating that the ART game has been digested by 70G is displayed as the information image of the digest game number notification effect 6d, and “game state notification effect 6y” is, for example, “During encounter” is changed to “fourth type approach encounter risk” (FIG. 17B (4a)), which is used as a notice effect for encouraging the generation expectation of the effect per ST.

  In addition, the ST notification type according to the present embodiment has a different per-ST effect mode according to the winning combination in the ST notification game, similar to the stock notification type. The details of this point are substantially the same as the contents described in “(C-2-1. Pseudo stock acquisition effect according to internal winning combination)” above. I will explain.

(E-2-1. Staging per ST according to the winning role)
In the per-ST notification game, when the effect replay type is won, “7 Lip Navi (this notice)” corresponding to the selected effect replay is displayed as an assist notification, and an impact “red 7 symbol set” is derived. As a blessing effect, the player is notified of the ST, and the “red 7 symbol set” is not derived and displayed in the dark clouds except for the ST notification game. In the example of FIGS. 17B (4a) and (4b), a case where “effect replay 123” is won is shown. On the other hand, in the case of other winning combinations, an effect per ST is suddenly displayed, so that the player is informed of the ST continuation shockingly. However, when a notification game per ST or another “not-per-ST notification game” is started, “chance! (High expectation)”, “chance may?” (Low expectation), etc. are displayed, and per ST An “ST winning notification expectation effect” may be made to be expected to occur (“(C-2-1. Pseudo stock acquisition effect according to internal winning role) (I) (B) (C)” Refer to the description of. In this case, the appearance probability is relatively higher in the case of the notification game per ST than in the notification game per non-ST.

(Per-ST effect mode (notification per ST): FIG. 17B (4a) to (4c))
Next, with reference to FIG. 17B (4), an effect mode per ST is described. In the 70G ST-notification game, a case where “Production Replay 123” is won is shown.

  In this example, “Production Replay 123” is the winning case, so “7 Lip Navi (Assist Notification 6g)” is first displayed when the current game starts (FIG. 17B (4a)). When the player performs a stop operation on the stop button 12 according to the “assist notification 6g” (when all the torso is stopped), “red 7 symbol alignment (7 replays)” on the effective winning line on the torso side is derived and displayed ( FIG. 17B (4b)), “notification effect per ST (result notification effect) 6est” appears (FIG. 17B (4c)). With this per-ST notification effect 6est, it is notified that a new ST section will continue. In the case of this example, as shown in the figure, a “character effect 6est” representing that an animal is taken away by a mysterious ray emitted from the disk appears in the center of the liquid crystal screen 6a, and “game state notification effect 6y” is displayed. "Is changed from" 4th type approach encounter danger "to" 4th type approach encounter risk ", and" Remaining game number notification effect 6cst "is reset to" ST50 "indicating 1 set 50G. As a result, the player acquires the right to execute a new ST section (ST mode), and at least knows that the ART game can continue for another 50G (the total number of continuations 120G is guaranteed). it can. Even if the player has failed to push and 7 replays are not derived and displayed, the “notification effect per ST 6est” appears.

  Although not shown, in order to give the player a feeling of continuation of the ST, a “predictive effect” suggesting that the notification game is approaching from one or more games before the notification game per ST. (For example, refer to “Character effect 6e” in FIG. 14A (2a) related to the pseudo surrendering notification type already described). In addition, this indication effect does not necessarily appear for the ST per-notification game, but may be targeted for a number of games unrelated to the ST per-notification game or a non-ST per-notification game). In this case, the degree of expectation as to whether or not an effect per ST is generated can be suggested by the contents of the indication effect.

(71G: ST start game of 2nd series: FIG. 17B (5))
The 71G game of the next game is the start game of the second ST segment. Here, “ST Renso notification effect 6q” appears as an effect at the time of Renso (FIG. 17B (5a)). In the example shown in the figure, a blessing information image “Alien abduction Completed” for notifying the ST reunion and the ST reunion number “ST2 ream start” is displayed. Also, the “gaming state notification effect 6y” is changed from “currently encountering fourth type approach” to “presenting third type approaching encounter” indicating the ST section. Although not shown in the figure, when the push order defining combination is won, a corresponding assist notification appears. At this time, the display priority of the assist notification is made higher than that of the ST consecutive resort start effect 6q, or is displayed prominently in the empty display area, so that the assist notification is highlighted so that the player does not miss it. It has come to be.

(72G to 250G: FIG. 12A)
Between 72G and 250G, the per-ST notification game arrives at "100G, 140G, 170G, 200G, 220G, 230G and 250G". In each informing game per ST, as in the “70th G” already described, it is informed that an effect per ST appears and another one set of ST sections is continued. Specifically, as can be seen from FIG. 12A, the continuation of at least a total of 150G (guaranteed game 100G + ST50G (determined third station)) is ensured by the 100G ST per-notification. After that, 140G, 170G, 200G, 220G, 230G and 250G are reported per ST, and the 250G is the last per ST report.

(251G-300G (this ART end game): FIG. 12A)
Between 251G and 300G, notification per ST does not occur, and at 300G, an “ST end effect” indicating the end of the ST section appears, and the player knows that this ART game has ended. It will be. With the 300th G, the current ST segment ends, and the current ART game ends. The total number of games of this ART game in this example is 300 G, which is the sum of 50 G pseudo-hit games and the ST section of 9 consecutive resorts 250 G. In the ST end effect, for example, as shown in FIG. 14B (5) or FIG. 16D (2), in addition to the fact that this ART game has ended and the number of game medals finally acquired, In the case of this example, for example, an information image “ST9 consecutive achievement!” Is reported.

(Specific example 12: 200G case)
Next, with reference to FIG. 12B, the case where the number of ART games is “200G” (specific example 12) will be described. In addition, about the content substantially the same as the content of the above-mentioned specific example 11, in order to avoid duplication description, it demonstrates, abbreviate | omitting suitably.

  Specific example 12 of FIG. 12B shows four cases in which the number of ART games is 200G, the hit game section is 50G, and the per-ST notification game is “70G, 100G, 140G, 150G”. In the case of this example, the fourth ST notification game, the 150th G, is the last ST notification, and the end of the ST section (151G to 200G) of the ST5th run, the present ART game is completed. Is terminated.

(Example 13: 100G case)
Next, with reference to FIG. 12C, the case where the number of ART games is “100G” (specific example 13) will be described. Specific example 13 in FIG. 12C shows a case where the game ends with a guarantee game with 100G ART games. In the case of this example, the notification effect per ST does not occur during the first ST section, and it ends in a single shot.

(ST notification type modification 1)
In the ST notification type according to the present embodiment, a game form in which the number of ART games is digested by a pseudo-ST section resort is described. However, a “set-type ST” in which the pseudo hit section and the ST section are set as one set. May be adopted. In the case of this modification, if the first set is “pseudo hit section (fixed at 50G) + first ST section (50G)”, and an effect per ST (notification per ST) appears in the first ST section, The game form is such that the second set of “pseudo hit section (50G) + first ST section (50G)” is started. In other words, the flow of the game is: “pseudo hit section (fixed 50G) → ST section (first station) (notification per ST) → pseudo hit section (fixed 50G) → ST section (second station) (notice per ST) → pseudo The hit transition (50G fixed) → ST section (third station) (notification per ST) → pseudo hit section (fixed 50G) (notification per ST) → ST section (fourth station) →. This is a game form in which a pseudo hit section and an ST section loop.

  Further, in the ST notification type according to the present embodiment, the configuration having the pseudo hit section (the number of guaranteed games) has been described. However, by not providing the pseudo hit section, the ST section is repeated one or more times (recessed). A game form in which the number of ART games is digested may be used. Since the first ST section is replaced with a game section equivalent to the pseudo hit section, if the game is not consecutive, this ART game is ended with the end of the first ST section 50G, that is, the end of the guarantee game. It will be. Further, the number of games in the pseudo hit section and the ST section is not limited to 50G and can be determined as appropriate.

  The preferred embodiment of the fifth embodiment is summarized as follows. Note that components substantially the same as those in the second embodiment are omitted as appropriate.

(1) Game result display means, start means, combination lottery means, stop means, stop control means, and privilege game control means (FIGS. 12A to 12C) for controlling the benefit game are provided. A revolving type gaming machine configured to be able to give a corresponding gaming value,

  In addition, the present embodiment can be a swivel type gaming machine according to any one of the above (1) to (3), which has the configuration of the “normal addition notification mode”.

[Sixth Embodiment]
(F-1. Non-scenario type additional notification type: FIGS. 13, 18, 22 to 28)
Next, with reference to FIG. 13, FIG. 18, and FIG. 22 to FIG. 2, the “non-scenario type additional notification type” of the sixth notification mode (sixth embodiment) according to the present invention will be described in detail.

(F-2. Overview of the non-scenario type extra notification type)
In order to facilitate understanding of the “non-scenario type superimposing notification type”, an outline thereof will be described first. This "non-scenario-type extra announcement type" is a spinning-type game machine equipped with the above "additional lottery function" (not a "pseudo extra announcement type that performs pseudo extra announcements", but a true extra lottery function. The type of game that increases the number of continued games in this ART game by adding the number of additional games from the additional lottery, as in the case of the type provided), but the maximum number of continued games is the number of restricted games (1500G). It is the structure which controls the number of additional games so that it may not exceed. Therefore, the “non-scenario type additional notification type” can increase the number of continuous games (ART games) of this ART game depending on the player's pull, but the maximum number of continuous games (maximum number of ART games) The game operation is controlled so that the number of games does not exceed the number of restricted games. In this respect, this example is referred to as a “non-scenario type additional notification type”. Here, the contents substantially the same as the contents of the above “pseudo addition notification type” will be described while being omitted as appropriate in order to avoid duplication. In addition, in the non-scenario type additional notification type according to the present embodiment, the “ART game number lottery” shown in FIG. 21 is not executed, the initial number of ART games (number of guaranteed games) starts from 50G, and the number of ART games is The number of games is treated as being added by an additional lottery (see FIGS. 22 to 26) described later.

  The maximum feature points of the non-scenario type superimposition notification type are as follows. In the case of the non-scenario-type additional notification type, the maximum number of continued games of the ART game is limited to the restricted game (1500G). Therefore, the number of additional games that can be added in this embodiment is from the restricted game number of 1500G to the guaranteed game number. 1450G obtained by subtracting 50G (fixed game) is the limit value of the number of additional games (hereinafter referred to as “additional limit value”). Therefore, when the number of added games has reached 1450G, no more games can be added. Therefore, the execution of the extra lottery is prohibited or restricted, and the extra lottery is not executed, or the extra lottery is executed, but the “additional zero game” is processed as 100% and the extra lottery is substantially invalidated. However, in the case of the present embodiment, it is described that the number of games required to enter the ART game from the normal game is ignored, so that the normal game (AT winning game) to the start of the ART game are started. Although the number of digested games (the number of digested games before reaching ART) is not taken into account, precisely, the number of digested games before reaching ART is counted as a regulated game number, and the number of digested games before reaching ART is also set as an upper limit value. Will be taken into consideration. In other words, the upper limit value is accurately “regulated game number (1500 G) −number of pre-arrival game X X (variable game number) −guaranteed game number Y (fixed 50 G) = addition limit value NR”. The additional limit value varies depending on the value of the pre-arrival digest game number X.

  However, when the extra is invalidated, the extra lottery is prohibited / restricted (hereinafter simply referred to as “prohibited”), even though the extra lottery opportunity is won and the right of extra lottery is obtained. ) Will be. In other words, the winning of the extra lottery opportunity will be simply “defeated”, increasing the player's dissatisfaction, or presenting this game as a mere digestive game, reducing the player ’s gaming interests. End up.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, until the total value N (total number of added games) of the current number of added games reaches the added limit value NR (total added game number N <added limit value NR), execution of the added lottery is permitted. Control is made to the “additional lottery permission state”, and when the total number N of added games reaches the additional limit value NR (total additional game number N ≧ additional limit value NR), execution of the additional lottery is prohibited (restricted). On the other hand, the information regarding the “set value” is selected when the “extra lottery prohibition state” is controlled (the setting suggestion performance appearance section in FIGS. 27, 28, and 13 described later), and when the extra lottery opportunity is won during the prohibition state. “Setting suggestion effect” can be displayed.

  This “setting suggestion effect” refers to an effect that gives an inferred element of the set value to the player (implies (suggests) the set value) or an effect that definitely notifies the set value. The set value is an important factor that greatly affects the player's profit. Therefore, it can be said that one of the greatest interests of the player is to play a game on a high setting game table. In the present embodiment, as setting suggestion effects, “low setting suggestion effects” that imply low settings (settings 1 to 3), “even number setting suggestion effects” that imply even settings (settings 2, 4, and 6), and odd settings. “Odd setting suggesting effect” implying (settings 1, 3, 5), “high setting suggesting effect” implying high setting (settings 4 to 6), and “setting 6” of the maximum setting value are definitely notified. A “setting 6 finalizing effect” or the like is provided (see FIG. 28 to be described later), and by giving a guessing element of a setting value to the player, it is not merely a “loss”.

(Additional lottery table during this ART game: FIGS. 22 to 27)
The extra lottery according to the present embodiment will be described. The extra lottery in this embodiment is executed on the side of the production control unit 410 (the extra lottery means) based on the “extra lottery table during the present ART game” according to the current total number of extra games.

  FIG. 22 to FIG. 27 show “the extra lottery table during the ART game (hereinafter abbreviated as“ the extra lottery table ”)”. 22 to 26, the total number of added games is “0 to 50G”, the total number of added games is “51 to 100G”, FIG. 24 is the total number of added games is “1301 to 1350G”, and FIG. FIG. 26 shows an extra lottery table that is referred to when the total number of added games is “1351 to 1400 G” and FIG. 26 is “1401 to 1449 G”, and FIG. 27 is referred to when the upper limit is reached. “Special extra lottery table (for reaching extra limit value)”.

  In the present embodiment, every time the total number of added games reaches 50G (number of table change games), change (switching) control to another added lottery table is performed. The reason for doing this is that, firstly, providing an additional lottery table corresponding to the total number of additional games causes a problem that the control burden increases in the dark clouds. Second, the table change game This is because if the number is set to a wide range (for example, the number of table change games is 500G), a delicate addition game cannot be set, and the degree of freedom of gameability is hindered. In this embodiment, it is described that the guaranteed game number is 50G without considering the number of games before reaching ART), so the minimum continuation game number of this ART game is 50G, and the additional limit value is a restricted game. Due to the relationship of 1500G, it is “1450G”. Therefore, although not shown in order to avoid duplicate description, the total number of added games is for 51 to 100G, 101 to 150G,..., 1251 to 1300G, in addition to the lottery tables shown in FIGS. A plurality of types of lottery tables corresponding to the total number of added games such as those for 1301G to 1350G are provided.

  The added lottery tables in FIGS. 22 to 25, as shown in the respective drawings, the number of added games (the “additional G number” column in the drawing) according to a specific winning combination type (additional lottery opportunity type) and the lottery probability thereof. Is stipulated. The numerical value (determination value) shown in the cell in the figure is the number of occupied areas of the determination value (winning area) with respect to the size of the lottery area (65536), and the added lottery probability is “determination value / lottery” The size of the area (65536) ”. The additional lottery table shown in FIG. 26 and FIG. 27 differs from the additional lottery table shown in FIGS. 22 to 25, and will be described later.

  As shown in the figure, the “additional lottery opportunity” is provided with a specific small role and a specific re-game player. The extra lottery trigger may be determined as appropriate. For example, it may be composed of a small role type and / or a re-playing role type, may be excluded, or may include a special role. Further, one or more types of extra lottery triggers can be provided. Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, the weak cherry, the weak watermelon, the production replay, the loss, and the common bell A may be referred to as “weakly added role”, and the strong cherry and the strong watermelon may be referred to as “strongly added role”.

  Further, a plurality of types of games are prepared as the number of additional games to be selected. Basically, a role with a lower winning probability (internal winning probability) due to a role lottery is easier to win the extra lottery, and a relatively large number of extra games can be drawn. In the case of the present embodiment, the strong additional combination is easier to add than the weak additional combination, and the number of games with a relatively large number of additional games is added. In addition, “chance replay” with the lowest internal winning probability among all roles is a “premium role” that promises to add a large amount. Also, as an exception, for example, in the case of “weak cherry”, the internal winning probability is a relatively high winning probability even among rare roles, but a large amount of “1000G” can occur with a very low probability (the weakness in FIG. 22). (See the column for cherry). In addition, when generating an addition, you may alert | report an addition by freeze production. Moreover, you may be able to alert | report the number of extras according to a freeze classification. For example, paying attention to the fact that SP freeze performs flashy freeze production accompanied by irregular rotation action than N freeze, and when SP freeze occurs, a relatively higher amount of extra games than when N freeze occurs You may comprise so that a number may alert | report. Further, the degree of expectation of the number of additional games may be notified depending on the freeze effect type. For example, when SP freeze occurs rather than N freeze, the expected degree of winning for a relatively large number of additional games is notified, and the number of additional games during the freezing effect or in a predetermined effect after the freezing effect ends. Can be notified.

  In the case of the present embodiment, the extra lottery is executed as usual until the total extra game reaches the extra limit value. When the total additional game is up to 50G, first, the “extra lottery table (for 0-50G)” in FIG. 22 is referred to, and the extra lottery is executed. Thereafter, each additional lottery table is determined according to the total number of additional games. It has come to be referenced.

  In addition, when winning the extra lottery by production replay, in order to achieve an extra stage production with impact, this notice is generated and “red 7 symbol set” is derived and displayed. It is preferable to In addition, in the case of non-winning lottery, it may be possible to make the player feel a sense of expectation by adding a gaze addition effect.

  In addition, when an additional notification is executed, an “addition notification effect” appears, but for the effect mode, for example, as in the “pseudo additional effect” shown in FIG. 13A (3), the number of additional games Is in the production mode. Although not shown in the figure because of duplication, “game state notification effect 6y”, “acquired number notification effect 6b”, “remaining game number notification effect 6c”, “digested game number notification effect 6d”, “story effect ( An effect such as “character effect) 6e” is also displayed.

  However, in the case of the present embodiment, since it is a type in which the number of additional games is acquired by actual addition lottery, not the pseudo addition lottery, the “number of added games” notified in the pseudo addition effect is a pseudo Not the number of added games but the number of games actually added is notified. In addition, the “number of remaining ART games” notified by the remaining game number notification effect 6c is displayed by adding the number of additional games actually acquired by the player through the lottery. That is, in the sixth embodiment, as in the first to fifth embodiments, a part or all of the number of remaining ART games being concealed is not notified (disclosed) in a production manner. The number of added games actually added in the added lottery and the number of internal remaining ART games are notified as in the conventional spinning-type game machine with the added lottery function.

(Specific example of non-scenario onboard notification type)
Next, with reference to FIG. 13, a specific example (specific example 14) of the above-described non-scenario additional notification type will be described. Here, in order to simplify the description of the present embodiment, in a rare case, for example, “5G” is added to the strong watermelon (lottery number 24), and “70G” is selected (total addition). Game 70G), chance replay on “10th G” (lottery number 22) and “1250G” added by winning (winning game 1320G), and stage replay on “15th G” (for example, stage replay 123 (lottery number 17)) ) "50G" added by winning (total added game 1370G), "30G" again, stage replay 123 (lottery number 17) "50G" won by winning (total added game 1420G), A case where a strong cherry (winning number 26) is won is shown as a representative example in "40G".

(1G ~ 4G eyes)
In the case of the specific example 14 shown in FIG. 13, from 1G to 4G, the extra lottery opportunity is not won, and the extra lottery itself is not performed.

(5G: Winning lottery opportunity (strong watermelon))
In the 5Gth, “strong watermelon (lottery number 24)”, which is an extra lottery opportunity, is won, and the extra lottery is executed. In the extra lottery at the 5G, the current total extra game number is “0G”, so the “extra lottery table (for 0-50G)” in FIG. 22 is referred to. In this example, the case where “70G” is won in the 5th game is described. Therefore, in the additional lottery after the next game (6th game), the “addition” in FIG. 23 corresponding to the total number of added games “70G” is shown. The lottery table (for 51-100G) will be referred to.

  Here, referring to the “additional lottery table (for 51-100G)” in FIG. 23, the number of additional games to be a lottery object is different from the “additional lottery table (for 0-50G)” in FIG. It has become a number. The characteristic point is that the maximum number of extra games is limited to 1400 G in the “upward lottery table (for 0-50G)” in FIG. 22, and in the case of the “upper lottery table (for 51-100G)” in FIG. The maximum number of additional games is limited to 1350G (see the “chance replay” column of lottery number 22 in FIGS. 23 and 24), that is, the maximum number of additional games varies depending on the total additional game. ing. This is because of the restriction game (1500G regulation), the maximum number of additional games is limited to 1400G when the total additional game is 0 to 50G, and similarly the maximum additional number of games is 1350G when the total additional game is 51 to 100G. This is because the range of the number of added games is adjusted so as to suppress it by the time. More specifically, the maximum number of games that can be added within the range of 0 to 50G, that is, the maximum number of continued games in this ART game is “guaranteed game number 50G + total value of additional game 50G (the addition lottery table is changed) The number of added games to be played is “100G”. In this embodiment, when there is an increase in the maximum digest game number 100G, the maximum value of the additional game number is determined so as not to exceed the regulated game number 1500G. That is, the maximum additional game in the range of 0 to 50G in the total added game is 1400G of “1500G-100G”. Similarly, when the total added game is in the range of 51 to 100G, the maximum number of games to be digested is 150G of "guaranteed game number 50G + maximum value of total added game 100", and the maximum additional game is 1350G of "1500G-150G". . Similarly, the other added lottery tables have the maximum added game number of 100 G in the “added lottery table (for 1301-1350G)” in FIG. 24 and the maximum in the “addition lottery table (for 1351-1400 G)” in FIG. The range of the number of added games to be added and selected as a lottery is limited so that the number of added games is limited to 50G.

  In the present embodiment, as the total number of additional games increases, the maximum number of additional games in each additional lottery table is set to a value that takes into consideration the number of digest games and the number of restricted games. In other words, with respect to the number of additional games determined by the extra lottery, the number of additional games subject to the extra lottery can be adjusted so that the number of games of this ART game by the extra does not exceed the number of restricted games (FIG. 22). To FIG. 26).

(10G: winning lottery opportunity (chance replay))
Returning to the description again, in the 10th G, the “chance replay (lottery number 22)” which is an extra lottery opportunity is won and the extra lottery is executed. In the extra lottery here, the “additional lottery table (for 51-100G)” in FIG. 23 is referred to based on the current total extra game number “70G”. In the case of this example, the case of winning a large amount of addition “1250G” is described, so the current total addition game in this game is 1320G (5G addition “70G” + 10G addition “1250G”) . Therefore, in the extra lottery after the next game (11G), the “extra lottery table (for 1301-1350G)” in FIG. 24 corresponding to the total number of extra games “1320G” is referred to.

(15G: winning lottery opportunity (directing replay))
Next, in the 15th G, winning “lottery replay (for example, stage replay 123 (lottery number 17))”, which is an extra lottery opportunity, is won and the lottery is added. In the extra lottery here, the “extra lottery table (for 1301-1350G)” in FIG. 24 is referred to based on the current total number of extra games “1320G”. In this game, since the replay is won, the “7 Lip Navi” by this announcement appears, and if the player operates the stop button 12 in the push order according to 7 Lip Navi, a red 7 symbol alignment is derived. , An additional notification effect appears. In the case of this example, the case of winning the “50G” addition is described, so the current total addition game in this game is 1370G (5G addition “70G” + 10G addition “1250G” + 15G addition) “50G”). Therefore, in the extra lottery after the next game (16G), the “extra lottery table (for 1351-1400G)” in FIG. 25 corresponding to the total number of extra games “1370G” is referred to.

(30G: winning lottery opportunity (directing replay))
Next, at the 30th G, the “effect replay 123” is won again, and an extra lottery is executed. In the extra lottery here, the “extra lottery table (for 1351-1400G)” in FIG. 25 is referred to based on the current total number of extra games “1370G”. In the case of this example, the case where the winning “50G” is won is explained, so the current total adding game is 1420G (5G adding “70G” + 10G adding “1250G” + 15G adding) “50G” + the 30th G addition (“50G”)). Therefore, in the extra lottery after the next game (31G), the “extra lottery table (for 1401-1449G)” in FIG. 26 corresponding to the total number of extra games “1420G” is referred to.

(40G: Winning of lottery opportunity (strong cherry))
Next, in the 40th G, “strong cherry (winning number 26)” is added, and the lottery is executed.
Reference is made to “Additional lottery table (for 1401-1449G)” in FIG. This “additional lottery table (for 1401-1449G)” is a final extra lottery table that is referred to below the upper limit value.

(Regarding “Additional lottery table (for 1401-1449G)”: FIG. 26)
The “uplift lottery table (for 1451-1499G)” has a special configuration, unlike the other extra lottery tables. In the present embodiment, when the total number of added games reaches 1450G, no more games can be added due to the restriction game (1500G). This is because, even if the number of added games is increased, if the number of games to be played in the advantageous section reaches the restricted game, the current ART game being executed is forcibly terminated and shifted to the normal game.

  Therefore, there is a high possibility that only a few tens of G will be added even if it is an additional lottery target that can acquire a relatively large number of additional games. Such a situation may reduce the player's willingness to play. There is. In consideration of such circumstances, in the present embodiment, when the total additional game is won by the additional lottery in 1401G to 1449G, the upper limit value (1450G in this embodiment) is used regardless of the remaining number of additional games that can be added. ) Is given, and a “blessing on arrival effect” is presented to congratulate the reaching of the extra limit value.

(About the blessing production mode when reaching)
In this “arrival blessing effect”, as shown in “Additional lottery table (for 1401-1449G)” in FIG. 26, a plurality of types of blessing effects “MAX display 1” and “MAX display 2” are prepared. Any production is selected by lottery.

  In the “MAX display 1”, for example, a specific character effect 6e that congratulates the arrival of the maximum addition game, a specific background display, or the like appears. On the other hand, “MAX display 2” displays the “setting suggestion effect” in addition to the effect contents of “MAX display 1”. Therefore, “MAX display 2” is an effect that acts more advantageously for the player than “MAX display 1” in that a setting suggestion effect appears.

  The “MAX display 1” mainly includes an extra lottery with a relatively low extra lottery winning probability or a relatively small extra game number, as shown in the judgment value column of FIG. It becomes easy to appear in the case of an opportunity (for example, a loser, a weak additional role, etc.). On the other hand, “MAX display 2” is an extra lottery opportunity that has a relatively high winning probability of extra lottery, or an extra lottery opportunity that makes it easy to win a relatively large number of extra games (for example, chance replay or strong extra role) It is easy to appear in the case of. In other words, “MAX display 2” reports information advantageous to the player so as not to give the player a “feeling of losing” when a particularly rare role is drawn among the extra lottery triggers. The “setting suggestion effect” is generated additionally. In addition, what kind of effect modes (low setting suggestion effect, even setting suggestion effect, odd setting suggestion effect, high setting suggestion effect, setting 6 finalizing effect, etc.) will appear as “setting suggestion effect” will be described later. Is determined based on the “setting suggestion effect lottery table” shown in FIG.

  In the case of the specific example 14, since it is a case where a strong cherry (winning number 26) is won in the 40th G (total added game “1420G” of the game), the “addition lottery table (for 1401-1449G)” in FIG. The column corresponding to the strong cherry (winning number 26) is referred to. In the case of a strong cherry, an additional game number of 30G that will reach the additional limit value is given, and either “MAX display 1” or “MAX display 2” “blessing effect at arrival” appears. It will be.

(Blessing on arrival mode: Fig. 18)
FIG. 18 shows a blessing effect upon arrival of the present embodiment. FIG. 18 shows a case where the above “MAX display 2 (blessing effect when reaching with setting suggestion effect)” appears.

  In the example shown in the drawing, first, when the winning lottery is won, a character effect 6e (alien group image) for notifying the winning will appear (FIG. 18 (a)). In addition, since the 40Gth of the specific example 14 is described here, the remaining game number notification effect 6c is “1430 (1430G of“ total added game number up to the 40Gth 1420 + guarantee game 50G−digested game number 40G ”)” An information image indicating the presence of the number of remaining ART games, an information image of “40” indicating 40G digestion, etc. are displayed as the digest game number notification effect 6d.

  Next, a character effect 6me that informs that the additional limit value has been reached appears (FIG. 18 (b)), and the display of the remaining game number notification effect 6c indicates “MAX” indicating that the additional limit value has been reached. The information image is changed and displayed. In the illustrated example, a conversation effect by a specific character image is displayed on the liquid crystal screen 6a as the character effect 6me. At this time, in the case of a blessing effect at the time of “MAX display 2”, a setting suggestion effect (alien appearance effect (alien image) 77) appears as shown, but “MAX display 1”. In such a case, such a setting suggestion effect is not displayed. In this example, an internal set value is suggested (implied) by an alien color scheme in the alien image 77. For example, if the color of the alien's body is white, it will be “low setting suggestion effect”, if it is blue it will be “even setting suggestion effect”, if it is yellow it will be “odd setting suggestion effect”, if it is red it will be “high setting suggestion effect” “Production”, in the case of gray, “setting 6 finalization (premium production)” and the like.

  Next, the dialogue effect line is changed, and the display of the remaining game number notification effect 6c is “1460G” (in this case, 1450G + guarantee game 50G−digestion game number 40G = 1460G) is changed and displayed, and a series of MAX display 2 (blessing effect upon arrival) is completed.

(Regarding the game after reaching the extra limit: the setting suggestion appearing section in FIG. 13)
The game after the addition limit value 1450G is added (in this case, the 40th and subsequent games) is controlled so that the addition lottery is not executed, and under the gaming state in which the addition to the ART game does not occur (the addition lottery prohibited state). Placed. However, when the extra lottery opportunity is won in the extra lottery prohibition state, when the “setting suggestion lottery” is won, the setting suggestion effect can be displayed. In the case of this example, the “setting suggested performance appearance section” shown in FIG. 13 corresponds to the game section in the extra lottery prohibited state.

(Special extra lottery table (for reaching the extra limit): FIG. 27)
The “setting suggestion effect lottery” is executed based on the “special extra lottery table (for reaching the extra limit value)” shown in FIG. In the “special extra lottery table”, the appearance (execution) probability of the “setting suggestion effect” is determined according to the extra lottery trigger as shown in FIG. The appearance probability of the setting suggestion effect is basically set such that a role having a lower winning probability (internal winning probability) by a role lottery is easier to win. For example, a setting suggestion effect appears with a probability (100%) of 6553/65536 when winning a weak cherry and 65536/65536 when chance replaying. In the case of the present embodiment, the loss, the effect replay, and the common bell A have a relatively low probability. As an exception, the strong suggestion effect appears in the strong cherry with a higher probability than the strong watermelon with a low internal winning probability among the strong addition roles.

  When the “setting suggestion effect lottery” based on the special extra lottery table is won, “setting suggestion effect type lottery” is then executed to determine the setting suggestion effect type. Specifically, which setting suggestion effect is to be displayed among “low setting suggestion effect”, “even setting suggestion effect”, “odd setting suggestion effect”, “high setting suggestion effect”, and “setting 6 final effect” Determined by As for the setting suggestion effect type, an internal set value is suggested (implied) by the alien color scheme in the alien image 77 described above.

(Setting suggestion effect lottery table: FIG. 27)
The “setting suggestion effect type lottery” is executed based on the “setting suggestion effect lottery table” shown in FIG. The setting suggestion effect lottery table is provided with a lottery table corresponding to each of the setting values 1 to 6, and an additional lottery opportunity and a setting suggestion effect type are defined in association with each other with a predetermined probability. The setting suggestion production is determined. In addition, the numerical value (determination value) shown in the cell in the figure is the number of occupied areas of the determination value (winning area) with respect to the size 256 of the lottery area.

  In this embodiment, each setting suggestion effect lottery table with setting values 1 to 6 has the following characteristics. The strong additional role (strong watermelon, strong cherry, etc.) suggests a set value with higher reliability than the weak additional role (weak watermelon, weak cherry, etc.). That is, instead of prohibiting the execution of the extra lottery, in the case of a combination that is easy to win the extra lottery or a combination that is easy to win the number of high addition games, it is easy to select a setting suggestion effect that implies the current set value, As a setting estimation element, information with high reliability is given to the player. For example, referring to the setting suggestion effect lottery table of setting 1, if the current setting value is “setting 1” which is the lowest setting and odd setting, paying attention to the ratio at which “low setting suggesting effect” is selected. The weak cherry is 60/256 and the strong cherry is 72/256, and the strong cherry is more likely to produce a low setting suggestion effect. Focusing on the ratio of the “odd setting suggestion effect”, the weak cherry is 84/256 compared to the strong cherry 100/256, and the odd cherry suggestion effect appears. It is easy to be done. Therefore, the strong cherry (strongly added role) has a stronger observation factor of the current set value than the weak cherry (weakly added character), and can be said to be an additional lottery opportunity that is useful for setting estimation. Each of the setting suggestion effect lottery tables of the other settings 2 to 6 is also determined to have the relationship between the above-described strong addition combination and weak addition combination.

  In addition, in the setting suggestion effect lottery table related to each setting value, the “chance replay (premium role)” in which the number of extra lotteries and the number of added games is the most preferential is more than the other extra lottery opportunity in the setting suggestion effect lottery. Preferential treatment and high-reliability setting value suggestion, in other words, information with a very strong setting disagreement element is provided. Specifically, when the chance replay is won and the current setting value is setting 1 to 2, “low setting suggesting effect” is selected at a ratio of 256/256 (100%). In the case of setting 3 in the intermediate setting, “low setting suggesting effect” is 224/256 (87.5%), “odd setting suggesting effect” is 32/224 (12.5%), In the case of setting 4, the “high setting suggesting effect” is 256/256 (100%), and in the case of setting 5, the “odd setting suggesting effect” is 32/224 (12.5%), “high setting” When the “suggested effect” is 224/256 (87.5%) and the setting 6 is the highest setting, the “high setting suggesting effect” and the “setting 6 finalized effect” are 128/256 (50%) respectively. It is to be selected. Therefore, if a “low setting suggesting effect” appears at the chance replay win, settings 1 and 2 are confirmed, and if a “high setting suggesting effect” appears, any of settings 4, 5, or 6 Determine.

  The “setting suggestion effect” can be displayed at any timing of the game won by the extra lottery opportunity. For example, the game may be triggered, the operation of any one of the first to third stop buttons 12 may be triggered, or the whole body stop may be triggered (the game result derivation display is triggered). It may be triggered by the end of payout of game medals.

  As described above, the non-scenario-type superimposing notification type is provided with an extra lottery function using the special extra lottery table shown in FIGS. Can be realized. In addition, when an additional lottery opportunity is won in the game section after reaching the upper limit value, a “setting suggestion effect” that can provide useful information to the player can be displayed (FIG. 27 and FIG. 27). FIG. 28). Thereby, it is possible to prevent the player from being given a “feeling of loss” caused by the regulation game. According to the present embodiment, it is possible to provide a novel gaming machine that can comply with legal requirements, follows conventional game playability, and does not give a “feeling of loss” caused by a regulated game.

(Variation 1 of the non-scenario type additional notification type)
The non-scenario-type superimposing notification type according to the present embodiment described above does not execute the “ART game number lottery” shown in FIG. 21, and the initial ART game number (guaranteed game number) is a fixed game number (50G ). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and may be a variable number of games as determined by “ART game number lottery”. However, the number of lottery target games targets a plurality of types of games determined within the range of the number of restricted games. In this case, an extra lottery table corresponding to the extra limit value may be used based on the number of games determined by the ART game number lottery (the number of initial ART games). For example, when the number of guaranteed games is 1400G, the additional limit value is “100G”. Therefore, when the total additional game is between 0G and 50G, the “additional lottery table (for 1351-1400G)” in FIG. , Using the extra lottery table with the maximum extra game number suppressed to 50G, the extra extra game is between 51G and 99G, as shown in “Additional lottery table (for 1401-1449G)” in FIG. An extra lottery table can be used that gives the number of extra games to be a value and can make a “blessing effect on arrival (MAX display 1, 2)” appear. However, in this modified example, it is described that the number of games required to enter the ART game from the normal game is ignored. Therefore, when determining the additional limit value, more precisely, before reaching the ART It is assumed that the number of digested games is included, and an extra lottery table corresponding to the extra limit value may be selected.

(Variation 2 of the non-scenario type superimposition notification type)
Note that the extra lottery function according to the sixth embodiment (the mode in which the number of ART games is increased by the extra lottery) can also be applied to the notification modes according to the first to fifth embodiments. For example, in the case of the notification forms according to the above first to fifth, the number of ART games is determined by drawing a predetermined number of games within a range of 100 G (minimum number of games: guaranteed number of games) to 1200 G (maximum number of games). In consideration of the number of games that have been digested before reaching ART, up to 1500G, which is the target number of games, a margin of 300G is provided.

  Here, as already explained, the number of games before reaching ART is about 150 games at maximum, so even if the maximum number of games is 1200G, the restricted game Until this is reached, there is a margin of about 150G. Focusing on this point, when the number of ART games determined by the ART game number lottery is less than the regulated game, the extra lottery according to the sixth embodiment may be executed (normal addition notification form). . For example, if the number of ART games this time is 1000G and there is a surplus number of games of 500G up to the restricted game, this 500G can be defined as the “number of games that can be added” that can be added by lottery. As described above, the actual number of ART games varies somewhat depending on the number of pre-ART arrival games, but if there is at least the number of games that can be added, until the number of games is added. , It can be determined as a game section that can be added lottery. Specifically, if the relationship “number of regulated games−number of ART games (number of games including the number of guaranteed games) −number of digested games before reaching ART = number of games that can be added up> 0” is satisfied, an additional lottery can be executed. When the number of games that can be added reaches the upper limit value due to the extra lottery, execution of the extra lottery is prohibited (the extra lottery prohibition state is controlled). During the “additional lottery prohibition state”, it can function as the “setting suggestion effect lottery section”.

  Whether or not the extra lottery is executed in the current game is determined according to whether the first embodiment is a “true / gasse extra notification game”, the second embodiment is a “notification game”, the third In the case of the embodiment, a “stock notification game / stock release game”, in the case of the fourth embodiment “freeze addition notification game / addition notification game”, and in the case of the fifth embodiment, a “notification game per ST” game. In consideration of the number, it is only necessary to determine whether or not to execute the extra lottery. For example, in the case where the characteristic effects of each embodiment and the additional effects are not made to appear redundantly, other than the notification game In the game, it is only necessary to allow the extra lottery to be executed, and if an effect with an impact is caused to appear by overlappingly generating, it is only necessary to allow the extra lottery to be executed regardless of the notification game. .

  The period controlled to the “additional lottery permission state” according to this modification may be the entire period during the ART game, or may be a specific game period of (H) to (N) below.

  (H) A part of the period during the ART game (the number of ART games) can be added to the lottery permission state. For example, it is possible to control the addition lottery permission state until the number of digested games in the ART game reaches a predetermined number of games. There is no particular limitation on how many games the predetermined number of games is, but the continuation of this ART game is limited to the number of games determined in the ART game number lottery. It can be set to any number of games. For example, the guarantee game may be consumed.

  (I) Also, instead of the number of digest games, for example, a guarantee game or at least one separated game (for example, between 100G and 200G) is divided into a plurality of game sections, and at least one of them is added to enter a lottery permission state. Can be controlled. For example, the security game can be divided into a first half section (1-25G) and a second half section (26G-50G), and the latter half section can be added to be controlled in a lottery permission state.

  (Nu) In addition, on the condition that the specific combination is won, it is possible to control the addition to the lottery permission state. The specific combination is not particularly limited and can be determined as appropriate, but is preferably a chance replay with a low winning probability or a strong addition combination. Further, the starting game in the added lottery permission state may be a game next to the winning game won by the specific combination, or may be a game after a predetermined number of games have been consumed from the winning game. Further, the termination condition of the extra lottery permission state can be determined when a predetermined number of games have been consumed or when a termination trigger (for example, a weak extra or lost) is won. Moreover, it is good also considering the period of an addition lottery permission state as a special area where the number of ART games is not digested. For example, when the extra lottery permission state is started on the 40th G and the extra lottery permission state is continued for 30G, the ART game can be restarted from the 41st G. However, even if the added lottery is permitted, if the number of restricted games is reached, the ART game is forcibly terminated.

  In the case of the second modification, even the spinning-type game machine according to the first to fifth embodiments can be provided with an extra lottery function. In particular, during the extra lottery permit state, it can function as an “additional chance zone” that can acquire additional games depending on the player's pull, contributing to a wealth of gameplay and improving the fun of the game. Can do.
