  The variable display of the special figure 1 is executed when the special figure 1 lottery is performed in response to the winning of the game ball in the first starting port 20. The variable display of the special figure 2 is executed when the special figure 2 lottery is performed in response to the winning of the game ball to the second starting port 22. In the following description, special figure 1 and special figure 2 are collectively referred to as special figure, and special figure 1 lottery and special figure 2 lottery are collectively referred to as special figure lottery. Further, the special figure display 411 and the special figure 2 display 412 are collectively referred to as a special figure display 41. Further, the special figure 1 hold indicator 431 and the special figure 2 hold indicator 432 are collectively referred to as a special figure hold indicator 43.

  The special figure variable display notifies the result of the special figure lottery. In the special figure variable display, the special figure is variably displayed and then stopped. A special figure to be stopped (a special figure derived and displayed as a stop special figure or a variable display result) is one special figure selected from a plurality of types of special figures by special drawing lottery. When the stop special figure is a specific figure (a special figure of a specific stop mode, that is, a jackpot symbol) according to a predetermined special figure (that is, the type of the jackpot that has been won) A jackpot game is performed in which the big winning openings (the first big winning opening 30 and the second big winning opening 32) are opened in the opening pattern.

  The special figure indicator 41 is composed of eight LEDs arranged side by side, and displays a special figure corresponding to the result of the special figure lottery according to its lighting mode. For example, when the result of the special drawing lottery is a jackpot (one of a plurality of types of jackpots described later), the special chart indicator 41 displays “□□ ■■ □□ ■■” (□: lit, ■ : The jackpot symbol composed of the lighting of the first, second, fifth and sixth LEDs from the left is displayed. In addition, when the result of the special drawing lottery is a loss, a special symbol display 41 “■■■■■■■ □” is displayed, indicating a loss pattern consisting of only the rightmost LED. To do. In addition, the lighting mode of the LED corresponding to the result of the special drawing lottery is not limited, and can be set as appropriate. Therefore, for example, all LEDs may be turned off as a lost pattern.

  In the variable display of the special figure, the fluctuation display of the special figure is performed for a predetermined fluctuation time before the special figure is stopped and displayed. The variation display mode of the special figure is a mode in which each LED is lit so that light repeatedly flows from left to right, for example. In addition, the mode of the variable display is not particularly limited, and may be appropriately set such that all the LEDs blink all at once unless each LED is stopped (lighted display in a specific mode).

  By the way, in the pachinko gaming machine 1, when there is a winning game ball (entered) in the first starting port 20 or the second starting port 22, various random numbers (numerical information) for special drawing lottery and the like are acquired. Sometimes. These various random numbers are temporarily stored in the special figure storage unit 85 (see FIG. 15) as special figure reservation. In the following description, various random numbers acquired by winning a game ball at the first start opening 20 (referred to as a “win ball”) are referred to as “special figure 1 related random numbers” and winning the game ball at the second start opening 22. Various random numbers acquired by (entrance ball) are called “special figure 2 related random numbers”. Here, the special figure 1 related random number is stored in the special figure 1 storage unit 851 (see FIG. 15) in the special figure storage unit 85 as a special figure 1 storage. On the other hand, the special figure 2 related random numbers are stored in the special figure 2 storage unit 852 (see FIG. 15) in the special figure storage unit 85 as special figure 2 storage. The number of special figure 1 holds that can be stored in the special figure 1 storage unit 851 (number of special figures 1) and the number of special figures 2 that can be stored in the special figure 2 storage part 852 (number of special figures 2) Has an upper limit. In the first embodiment, the upper limit value of the special figure 1 holding number and the special figure 2 holding number is respectively set to four. In the following, the special figure 1 hold and the special figure 2 hold are collectively referred to as “special figure hold”, and the special figure 1 hold number and the special figure 2 hold number are collectively referred to as “special figure hold number”. The special figure 1 related random numbers and the special figure 2 related random numbers are collectively referred to as “special figure related random numbers”.

  In the pachinko machine 1, when the variable display of the special figure is not performed immediately after the game ball wins the first start opening 20 or the second start opening 22, the variable display of the special figure is being executed. If there is a prize during the execution of the big hit game, the variable display of the special figure for the prize (or the right of special figure lottery) can be reserved up to a predetermined number. The special figure hold stored in the special figure hold storage unit 85 is digested when variable display of the special figure based on the special figure hold becomes possible. In other words, the special figure reservation means that a special figure related random number or the like corresponding to the special figure hold is determined, and variable display of the special figure for indicating the determination result is executed.

  Then, the special figure hold number is displayed on the special figure hold indicator 43. Each of the special figure 1 hold indicator 431 and the special figure 2 hold indicator 432 is composed of four LEDs, and displays the number of special figure hold by turning on the LED for the number of special figure hold.

  In addition, the variable display of the normal symbol notifies the result of the normal symbol lottery. In the normal symbol variable display, the normal symbol is variably displayed and then stopped. A normal symbol that is displayed in a stopped state (a normal symbol that is derived and displayed as a display result of a stopped normal symbol or a variable display) is one normal symbol that is selected from a plurality of types of normal symbols by a normal symbol lottery. When the stopped normal symbol is a predetermined normal symbol (a normal symbol of a predetermined stop mode, that is, a winning symbol), the second start port 22 (electrical power) is opened in an open pattern according to the current gaming state. An auxiliary game for opening Chu 23) is performed.

  The general symbol display 42 is composed of, for example, two LEDs, and displays a normal symbol corresponding to the result of the normal symbol lottery according to the lighting mode. When the result of the normal symbol lottery is winning, the universal symbol display 42 displays a winning symbol constituted by lighting of both LEDs such as “□□” (□: lit, ■: unlit). Further, when the result of the normal symbol lottery is a loss, a lost symbol constituted by lighting of only the right LED, such as “■ □”, is displayed. You may employ | adopt the aspect which light-extinguishes all LED as a loss pattern. In addition, the lighting mode of the LED corresponding to the result of the normal symbol lottery is not limited, and can be set as appropriate.

  Also, before the normal symbol is stopped and displayed, the normal symbol is displayed in a variable manner over a predetermined fluctuation time. In the first embodiment, the normal symbol variation display mode is such that both LEDs are alternately lit. In addition, the mode of the normal symbol variation display is not particularly limited, and may be appropriately set such that all the LEDs blink at the same time unless each LED is stopped and displayed (lighted display in a specific mode). .

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1, when a game ball passes through the gate 28, a normal symbol random number (numerical value information) for performing a normal symbol lottery may be acquired. This random number is stored in the universal figure storage unit 86 (see FIG. 15) on the condition that the variable variable display or the auxiliary game is not executed. In the following, the normal symbol random number acquired by the game ball passing through the gate 28 is also referred to as “common symbol related random number”.

3. Description of Game by Main Control Board 80 Next, a game played by the main control board 80 will be described. First of all, I will explain the game related to the usual figure. When the launched game ball passes through the gate 28, the main control board 80 performs a lottery drawing on the condition that the usual variable display or the auxiliary game is not performed. When the main drawing circuit lottery is performed, the main drawing display 42 performs variable display of the normal drawing (stop display after the variable display is performed) on the general drawing display 42. Here, there are a winning symbol and a lost symbol in the usual symbols to be stopped and displayed. In addition, the losing symbol of the ordinary figure is also referred to as “losing ordinary figure” in order to distinguish it from the losing symbol of the special figure described later. When the winning symbol is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is executed, and the game related to the passage of the gate 28 ends. On the other hand, when the lost map is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is not performed and the game related to the passage of the gate 28 is ended. Further, in the following, passing of the game ball through the gate 28 when the usual variable display or the auxiliary game is not performed is referred to as “establishment of a general variable start condition”.

  When performing such a series of games (general drawing lottery, variable diagram variable display, auxiliary game), the main control board 80 acquires a general diagram related random number when the general diagram variation start condition is satisfied. The common figure-related random numbers to be acquired include normal symbol random numbers as shown in FIG. The normal symbol random number is a random number (determination information) for making a hit determination. Each random number has an appropriate range. Specifically, the range of normal symbol random numbers is 0 to 65535.

  Next, each determination performed using the common figure related random numbers will be described. First, the hit determination will be described. The hit determination is a determination for determining whether or not to win (whether or not to execute an auxiliary game) using the hit determination table shown in FIG. The hit determination table is associated with a gaming state to be described later. That is, the hit determination table includes a hit determination table used in a non-time-saving state (non-time-saving hit determination table) and a hit determination table used in a time-saving state (time-saving hit determination table). In each winning determination table, normal symbol random number determination values (ordinary symbol random number determining values) are assigned to the winning and losing results of the winning determination. Therefore, the main control board 80 collates the acquired normal symbol random number with the hit determination table, and determines whether or not it is a hit or a lose. If the result of the hit determination is a hit, basically, the winning symbol is stopped and displayed in the variable display of the usual figure. On the other hand, if the result of the hit determination is lost, basically, the lost map is stopped and displayed with variable display of the normal map.

  Next, normal pattern determination (general pattern change pattern determination) will be described. The common map variation pattern determination is a determination for determining a common map variation pattern using the general diagram variation pattern determination table shown in FIG. The normal map variation pattern is identification information related to a predetermined item related to a normal map change display such as a normal map change time.

  The normal variation pattern determination table is associated with a gaming state (non-short-time state / short-time state). In other words, the common figure fluctuation pattern judgment table includes a common figure fluctuation pattern judgment table (non-time-short ordinary figure fluctuation pattern judgment table) used in a non-temporal state and a normal figure fluctuation pattern judgment table (in a short-time state) ( There is a short time normal map fluctuation pattern judgment table).

  Each normal pattern variation pattern determination table stores one general pattern variation pattern, which is a result of the general pattern variation pattern determination, for each normal symbol to be stopped. That is, the main control board 80 is determined to be a normal pattern change pattern in which the normal figure change display time is 30 seconds for the normal change display when the normal pattern of the lost state (the lost normal figure) is stopped and displayed in the non-time-short state. In the case of the normal pattern change display when the winning symbol is stopped and displayed, the normal pattern change time is determined to be 30 seconds. In the short time state, the main control board 80 determines the normal figure fluctuation display for the normal figure fluctuation display when the lost common figure is stopped to be displayed as the normal figure fluctuation pattern having a normal figure fluctuation time of 5 seconds. In the case of the normal map change display, the normal map change time is determined to be 5 seconds. The general map change display of the normal map change time associated with the normal map change pattern determined in this determination is performed by the general map display 42.

  In this way, by performing the hit determination and the normal map variation pattern determination, the general map display 42 performs variable display of the normal map. When the winning symbol is stopped and displayed (derived) as a display result (result of the common symbol lottery) in the variable display of the normal symbol, an auxiliary game corresponding to the type of the winning symbol is executed.

  Various elements such as elements constituting the auxiliary game (auxiliary game elements), that is, the number of times the electric chew 23 is opened, and the opening time for each opening are included. Each of these elements is associated with a gaming state (non-time saving state / time saving state). The main control board 80 controls an auxiliary game using the auxiliary game control table shown in FIG. The auxiliary game control table is associated with the game state (non-time-short state / time-short state). Each auxiliary game control table stores auxiliary game components. Therefore, when the winning symbol is stopped and displayed, the main control board 80 executes an auxiliary game according to the gaming state. Here, the auxiliary game according to the game state will be described.

  In the auxiliary game in the non-short-time state, the electric chew 23 is opened once. The opening time at this time is 0.08 seconds. Then, after the electric chew 23 is released, the auxiliary game is finished through an ending of 0.08 seconds. Therefore, it is difficult to win the game ball in the electric chew 23 when this auxiliary game is executed. In the following, the auxiliary game in the non-time-short state is also referred to as “short opening auxiliary game”.

  In the auxiliary game in the short time state, the electric chew 23 is opened once. The opening time at this time is 3.00 seconds. Therefore, when this auxiliary game is executed, it is easy to win the game ball in the electric chew 23. In the following, the auxiliary game in the short-time state is also referred to as “long open auxiliary game”.

  Next, a game related to a special figure will be described. When the launched game ball wins the first starting port 20, the special figure 1 lottery is performed on condition that the special figure 1 holding number (U1) is less than four. When the special figure 1 lottery is performed, the special figure 1 display 411 performs variable display of the special figure 1 (stop display after performing the variable display), and notifies the result of the special figure 1 lottery. Here, the special figure 1 that is stopped and displayed includes a jackpot symbol and a lost symbol. That is, the special drawing 1 lottery results include a big hit and a loss. When the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is executed, a new gaming state is set, and the game based on the winning is completed. On the other hand, when the lose symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is not performed and the game based on the winning is completed.

  Similarly, when the launched game ball wins the second starting port 22, the special figure 2 lottery is performed on condition that the special figure 2 holding number (U2) is less than four. When the special figure 2 lottery is performed, the special figure 2 display 412 performs variable display of the special figure 2 (stop display after performing the variable display) to notify the result of the special figure 2 lottery. Here, the special figure 2 which is stopped and displayed includes a jackpot symbol and a lost symbol. That is, the special figure 2 lottery results include a big hit and a loss. When the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is executed, a new gaming state is set, and the game based on the winning is completed. On the other hand, when the lose symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is not performed and the game based on the winning is finished.

  In the following, when the special figure 1 hold number (U1) is less than 4, winning the game ball at the first start port 20 is referred to as “establishment of the first start condition”, and the special figure 2 hold number ( The winning of a game ball at the second start port 22 when U2) is less than 4 is referred to as “establishment of the second start condition”. Further, “satisfaction of the first start condition” and “satisfaction of the second start condition” are collectively referred to as “satisfaction of the start condition”. Further, the special symbol lose symbol is also referred to as a “special loss symbol” in order to distinguish it from the above-mentioned normal symbol lose symbol.

  In performing such a series of games (special drawing lottery, special display variable display, jackpot game, gaming state setting), the main control board 80 acquires special figure related random numbers when the start condition is established, Various determinations are made on the random numbers. As shown in FIG. 17B, the special figure related random numbers to be acquired include a special symbol random number, a jackpot symbol type random number, a reach random number, and a special symbol fluctuation pattern random number. The special symbol random number is a random number (determination information) for making a jackpot determination. The jackpot symbol type random number is a random number (determination information) for determining the jackpot symbol type. The reach random number is a random number (determination information) for performing reach determination. The special figure variation pattern random number is a random number (determination information) for determining the variation pattern of the special symbol. Each random number has an appropriate range. Specifically, the range of special symbol random numbers is 0 to 65535. The range of the jackpot symbol type random number is 0-9. The range of reach random numbers is 0-99. The range of special figure fluctuation pattern random numbers is 0-99.

  Next, each determination performed using the special figure related random number will be described. First, the jackpot determination will be described. The jackpot determination is a determination for determining whether or not the jackpot is determined (whether or not the jackpot game is executed) using the jackpot determination table shown in FIG. The jackpot determination table is associated with a gaming state, more specifically, whether it is a normal probability state or a high probability state. That is, the jackpot determination table includes a jackpot determination table (normal probability jackpot determination table) used in a normal probability state and a jackpot determination table (high probability jackpot determination table) used in a high probability state.

  In each jackpot determination table, a determination value of a special symbol random number (special symbol random number determination value) is distributed to a jackpot and a loss as a result of the jackpot determination. The main control board 80 collates the acquired special symbol random number with the jackpot determination table to determine whether it is a jackpot or a loss. As shown in FIG. 19A, the high probability jackpot determination table has more special symbol random number determination values determined to be jackpots than the normal probability jackpot determination table.

  Next, the jackpot symbol type determination will be described. The jackpot symbol type determination is a determination for determining the type of jackpot symbol (jackpot symbol type) using the jackpot symbol type determination table shown in FIG. 19B when the result of the jackpot determination is a jackpot. The jackpot symbol type is associated with a jackpot constituent element constituted by the contents of the jackpot, in other words, a game privilege given to the player.

  The jackpot symbol type determination table is a variably displayed special symbol type (special symbol 1 / special symbol 2), in other words, a prize that is caused by the jackpot symbol type determination (which generated the jackpot symbol type determination) is performed. It is associated with the type of the start port (first start port 20 / second start port 22). That is, in the jackpot symbol type determination table, the jackpot symbol type determination table (first jackpot symbol type determination table) used when performing variable display of special figure 1 and the jackpot symbol used when performing variable display of special figure 2 There is a symbol type determination table (second jackpot symbol type determination table).

  In each jackpot symbol type determination table, a jackpot symbol type random number determination value (a jackpot symbol type random number criterion value) is distributed to the jackpot symbol type as a result of the jackpot symbol type determination. Therefore, the main control board 80 collates the acquired jackpot symbol type random number with the jackpot symbol type determination table to determine the type of jackpot symbol. Two types of jackpot symbols, jackpot symbol A and jackpot symbol B, are provided as jackpot symbols (according to Special Figure 1) when winning the first starting port 20. On the other hand, one type of jackpot symbol C of jackpot symbol C is provided as a jackpot symbol (according to special figure 2) when winning at the second starting port 22. In the first jackpot symbol type determination table and the second jackpot symbol type determination table, the jackpot symbol type random number determination value is appropriately distributed to various jackpot symbols.

  The jackpot winning probability and the jackpot symbol type allocation rate (%) are not limited to those shown in FIGS. 19A and 19B, and can be set as appropriate. Further, the types of jackpot symbols are not limited to the three types of jackpot symbols shown in FIG. 19B, and can be set as appropriate. For example, in the first jackpot symbol type determination table, more or less than two types of jackpot symbols may be associated with the jackpot symbol type random number determination value. In the second jackpot symbol type determination table, more than one type of jackpot symbol may be associated with the jackpot symbol type random number determination value.

  Next, reach determination will be described. The reach determination is a determination for determining whether or not to generate a reach using the reach determination table shown in FIG. 19C when the result of the jackpot determination is a loss. Here, in order to explain the reach, the special figure variation effect that is the premise of the reach will be described.

  When the special figure variable display is performed, a special figure variation effect is performed according to the variable display of the special figure. The special figure variation effect is performed using various effect devices such as the image display devices 7 and 8, the speaker 11, the frame lamp 12, the movable devices 13 to 15, the hemispherical button 63, and the sword-shaped button 64. As the special figure variation effect, the display parts 7a and 8a of the image display devices 7 and 8 perform the variable display of the effect symbols synchronized or substantially synchronized with the variable display of the special figure. In other words, the effect symbol is displayed in a variable manner along with the special symbol, and the effect symbol is stopped (stop display) as the special symbol is stopped (stop display). The effect of displaying the effect symbol in a variable manner is also referred to as effect symbol variation effect. The effect symbol variation effect is a part of the “special symbol variation effect”.

  For example, in the display units 7a and 8a, the effect symbols are a left effect symbol EZ1 displayed relatively on the left side, a medium effect symbol EZ2 displayed relatively in the middle, and a right effect displayed on the right side. It is comprised with production design EZ3 (refer FIG. 25 etc.). In the following description, when the left effect symbol EZ1, the middle effect symbol EZ2, and the right effect symbol EZ3 are collectively referred to as “effect symbol EZ1, EZ2, EZ3”.

  The production symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are each composed of numbers from “1” to “8”, for example. In the variation display of the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3, the numbers constituting the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are viewed from the top and bottom of the upper display portion 8a and the lower display portion 7a that are viewed side by side in the vertical direction. The numbers displayed (viewed) in the display units 7a and 8a are sequentially switched. In addition, as a mode of the variable display of the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3, other modes such as a mode of scrolling in the left-right direction (for example, from right to left) may be used. Moreover, the aspect in which the numbers constituting the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are sequentially replaced at a predetermined fixed position instead of scrolling display (for example, rotating at the fixed position) may be employed. In the special figure variation effect, in addition to the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3, effect images other than effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 such as background images and character images described later are also displayed.

  When the special figure is stopped and displayed, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a predetermined arrangement (combination). That is, in the variable display, various numbers that are sequentially replaced in the display units 7a and 8a are specified as one. At this time, the special figure (result of variable display, that is, the result of the special symbol lottery) that is stopped and displayed on the special figure display 41 by the combination of the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 that are stopped and displayed (the specified symbols). Is displayed in an easy-to-understand manner. This makes it easier for the player to grasp the progress of the game. That is, the player generally does not grasp the result of the special drawing lottery by the special figure 1 display 411 or the special figure 2 display 412 but by the display units 7a and 8a of the image display devices 7 and 8. To do.

  The reach is an effect for causing the player to expect a big hit using the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 in the special figure variation effect. Specifically, the reach is a state in which the effect symbol that is scroll-displayed is one of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3, and the symbol that the scroll-displayed effect symbol is stopped is displayed. It is a state (for example, a state of “5 ↓ 5”) that is a combination of effect symbols indicating a big win depending on the situation (see FIG. 26D). The effect symbols that are not scroll-displayed in the reach are temporarily stopped at predetermined positions in the display units 7a and 8a. The temporary stop means that a predetermined effect symbol stays at a substantially predetermined position (the predetermined effect symbol continues to be displayed in the display unit 7a). Repetitive reciprocating motions in the vertical direction, repeated slight swings, repeated enlargement and reduction, etc.). In addition, the aspect of a temporary stop is not restricted to these.

  The reach determination table is associated with a gaming state (non-short-time state / short-time state). In other words, the reach determination table includes a reach determination table (non-time reduction reach determination table) used in a non-time reduction state and a reach determination table (time reduction reach determination table) used in a time reduction state. The details of the non-short-time state and the short-time state will be described later. However, the non-time-short state and the time-short state are the time required for the special symbol variation display (time from the start of the special diagram variation display to the time when the display result is derived: the special diagram. The game state has an influence on the fluctuation time), and in the short time state, the special figure fluctuation time is likely to be shorter than in the non-short time state.

  In each reach determination table, reach random number determination values (reach random number determination values) are assigned to the reach determination results “with reach (generate reach)” and “without reach (not generate reach)”. Yes. Therefore, the main control board 80 collates the acquired reach random number with the reach determination table and determines whether there is reach or not (whether or not reach is generated). As shown in FIG. 19C, the non-temporal reach reach determination table distributes more reach random number determination values determined to be “with reach (generate reach)” than the short reach reach determination table. ing. When the reach determination result is “reach is present (reach is generated)”, in most cases, reach occurs in the special figure variation effect. On the other hand, if the result of the reach determination is “no reach (no reach is generated)”, no reach occurs in the special figure variation effect. In the following, the result of reach determination performed on the assumption that the result of the jackpot determination is “losing” is “reach with reach (generates reach)” is referred to as “reach with reach” and “no reach ( "Reach is not generated)" is sometimes referred to as "no reach".

  By the way, when the special figure variable display is performed, in addition to the variable display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3, the small symbols are variablely displayed on the display units 7a and 8a. The small symbol variable display is performed, for example, in the upper left corner of the upper display portion 8a. The small symbol is composed of a left small symbol KZ1 displayed relatively on the left side, a medium small symbol KZ2 relatively displayed in the middle in the left-right direction, and a right small symbol KZ3 relatively displayed on the right side. (See FIG. 25 and the like). In the following description, the left small symbol KZ1, the medium small symbol KZ2, and the right small symbol KZ3 may be collectively referred to as “small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3”.

  The small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are displayed in a variable manner with the start of the special symbol fluctuation display. That is, the variation display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 and the variation display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are started simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. Each of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 is configured by numbers from “1” to “8”, for example. In the variation display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are sequentially replaced with different numbers on the spot. Therefore, while the special figure variation display is performed, the variation display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 and the variation display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are performed. Then, the fluctuation display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 is stopped when the special figure fluctuation display is stopped. That is, the stop display of the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 and the stop display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are started simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. The stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 and the stop display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are basically performed by the same combination of numbers (stop display mode). Although details will be described later, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are temporarily stopped before being completely stopped, but the temporary symbols are not displayed for the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3. In addition, when the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are in the reach state, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are not in the reach state, and the three small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are variably displayed.

  Next, special pattern variation pattern determination will be described. The special symbol variation pattern determination (special symbol variation pattern determination) is a special symbol variation pattern determination table (a special symbol variation pattern) shown in FIGS. This is a determination for determining a variation pattern (special diagram variation pattern) of variation display of a special symbol using a determination table. The special figure variation pattern is identification information for identifying predetermined matters relating to the special figure variation time and the production flow (production content) of the special figure fluctuation production. It should be noted that the special figure variation pattern includes information regarding the result of the jackpot determination and the result of reach determination in addition to the special figure variation time and the production flow (production contents) of the special figure fluctuation production.

  The special figure fluctuation pattern determination table is a type of special symbol (special figure 1 / special figure 2) for displaying the fluctuation to be judged, in other words, the start opening where the winning due to the special figure fluctuation pattern judgment is performed. It is associated with the type (first start port 20 / second start port 22). That is, the special figure fluctuation pattern determination table includes a special figure fluctuation pattern determination table (special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment table: FIG. 20) used when performing fluctuation display of special figure 1 and a fluctuation display of special figure 2. There is a special figure fluctuation pattern determination table (special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table: FIG. 21) used when performing.

  Each special figure variation pattern determination table is also associated with a gaming state (non-short-time state / short-time state). That is, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table includes a special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table (non-time reduction special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table) used in a non-short-time state and a special figure 1 used in time-short state. There is a fluctuation pattern determination table (temporal special chart 1 fluctuation pattern determination table). On the other hand, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table is similarly used in the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table (non-time reduction special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table) used in the non-short-time state and in the short-time state. There is a special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table (short-time special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table).

  Each special figure variation pattern determination table associated with the gaming state (non-short-time state / short-time state) is also associated with the jackpot determination result and the reach determination result. That is, the non-time-saving special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table and the non-time-saving special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table respectively include a jackpot, a reach with loss, and a non-reach loss. Similarly, the time-saving special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table and the time-shortening special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table also have a jackpot, a reach loss, and a non-reach loss, respectively.

  Furthermore, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for each reachless loss is also associated with the special figure holding number. Specifically, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for reachless loss used when the special figure 1 hold number (U1) is 0 to 2, and the special figure 1 hold number (U1) is 3 to 4. And a special figure 1 variation pattern determination table for losing without reach. In addition, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for each reachless loss is also associated with the special figure holding number. Specifically, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for reachless loss used when the special figure 2 hold number (U2) is 0 to 2, and the special figure 2 hold number (U2) is 3 to 4. And a special figure 2 variation pattern determination table for losing without reach.

  As described above, in each special figure fluctuation pattern determination table associated with the type of special symbol or the gaming state, the special figure fluctuation pattern random value (special value) is added to the special figure fluctuation pattern as a result of the special figure fluctuation pattern judgment. The figure variation pattern random number judgment value) is distributed. Therefore, the main control board 80 collates the acquired special figure fluctuation pattern random number with the special figure fluctuation pattern determination table to determine the special figure fluctuation pattern. Then, the special symbol display 41 performs the special symbol variation display of the special symbol variation time according to the special diagram variation pattern determined by this determination.

  When the special symbol variation display is performed, a special diagram variation effect based on the special diagram variation pattern is performed. The special figure variation effect includes the normal special diagram variation effect in which the variation display mode ends while the variation display mode is maintained in the normal normal mode after the start of the variation display of the effect symbol, and the variation display of the effect symbol. There is a special special figure variation effect in which the variation display mode becomes a special mode different from normal. Here, the special embodiment includes the reach described above.

  The special figure variation pattern includes information related to the production flow constituting the production content of the special figure fluctuation production based on the special figure fluctuation time. The effect flow of this special figure fluctuation effect is shown in the third item from the right of the special figure fluctuation pattern determination table shown in FIGS. Here, each effect which comprises the effect flow of the special figure fluctuation effect linked | related with the special figure fluctuation pattern is demonstrated.

  There are normal fluctuation, reach, normal reach (N reach), development effect, long reach (L reach), and special reach (SP reach) as effects constituting the flow of special figure fluctuation effects.

  The normal variation is basically an effect in which the effect symbols are displayed in a variable manner at a high speed so that it is difficult to recognize each effect symbol without causing the effect symbols to become special. All parts of the normal special figure fluctuation effect (the part from the start of change of the effect symbol to the stop of the change) and the part until the reach in the special special figure change effect is established (confirmed) are composed of normal fluctuations. .

  N Reach is a state in which the effect design constituting the reach is maintained for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds) immediately after the reach is established (confirmed), and the remaining one design symbol is decelerated. It is an effect that fluctuates at a lower speed than normal fluctuation. The jackpot expectation suggested by N reach is higher than normal fluctuations and lower than L reach and SP reach described later. When the special figure variation effect ends with N reach, the remaining one effect symbol that varies at the low speed stops. In the case of a big hit, the remaining one effect symbol basically stops at the same effect symbol as the effect symbol constituting the reach. In the case of losing, the remaining one effect symbol stops at an effect symbol different from the effect symbols constituting the reach. When the special figure variation effect is not finished in N reach, the remaining one effect symbol is changed again at high speed, and the reach is maintained (changed effect) from the N reach to the next effect (development effect).

  The development effect is an effect in which a background image dedicated to the development effect is displayed in a state where the reach is maintained, and connected to the SP reach or the L reach. In other words, the development effect branches to SP reach or L reach. Therefore, the variation effect does not end with the development effect. In other words, whenever the development effect is developed, either SP reach or L reach is performed.

  In the L reach, the established reach is maintained, but the effect symbols constituting the reach are reduced and at a predetermined position (for example, the left effect symbol EZ1 is directly below the left small symbols KZ1 to KZ3 in the upper left of the upper display portion 8a). On the other hand, in the state where the right effect symbol EZ3 is moved to the upper right part of the upper display portion 8a and about the same height as the left effect symbol EZ1, a background image dedicated to L reach is displayed (video is streamed), and from N reach Is a long-lasting performance. In the L reach, animation images by 2DCG are mainly displayed on the display units 7a and 8a. The content of the L reach is composed of a predetermined story.

  In the SP reach, the established reach is maintained, but the effect symbols constituting the reach are reduced and at a predetermined position (for example, the left effect symbol EZ1 is directly below the left small symbols KZ1 to KZ3 at the upper left of the upper display portion 8a). On the other hand, in the state where the right effect design symbol EZ3 has moved to the same position as the left effect design symbol EZ1 at the upper right of the upper display portion 8a, a dedicated background image for a longer time than the L reach background image is displayed. It is a production (video flows). In the SP reach, 3DCG images are mainly displayed on the display units 7a and 8a. Then, as the effect of the SP reach, a scene in which a predetermined character battles with an enemy character at the enemy base is displayed (videos for battle flow on the display units 7a and 8a).

  In the “reach maintained state” in the N reach, the development effect, the L reach, and the SP reach, the effect symbols that constitute the reach in the N reach, the L reach, and the SP reach are displayed on the display unit 7a. , 8a as well as a state in which the design symbols that make up the reach for a predetermined period of time in relation to a dedicated background image include a state that is difficult or impossible to view from the display units 7a, 8a. .

  As shown in the second column from the right in the tables of FIGS. 20 to 21, the special figure (hit determination result) for the special figure (big hit determination result) and the special figure fluctuation pattern including information on the contents of the effect of the fluctuation effect. ) And special drawing variation effects, etc. The special figure fluctuation pattern related to jackpot is also referred to as “jackpot fluctuation”. On the other hand, the special figure fluctuation pattern in which the SP reach is performed in the loss with reach is referred to as “SP loss fluctuation”, and the special figure fluctuation pattern in which the L reach is performed in the loss with reach is referred to as “L loss fluctuation”. Among the lost with reach, the special figure fluctuation pattern in which the special figure fluctuation effect ends with the N reach is called “N loss fluctuation”, and the special figure fluctuation pattern with respect to the loss without reach is called “normal loss fluctuation”.

  In addition, the flow of special figure variation effects related to normal A loss variation to normal C loss variation that can be selected in a non-time-short state is composed of only normal variation. The difference is 13 seconds, 8 seconds and 4 seconds. Similarly, the production flow of the variation effect related to the shortened A loss variation and the shortened B loss variation that can be selected in the short-time state is configured only by the normal variation, but the special diagram variation time of the special diagram variation pattern is 6 seconds. And 3 seconds.

  Further, when the game ball wins the start opening 20 or 22 and acquires the special figure related random number, the main control board 80 once stores it in an area (for example, a buffer) different from the special figure holding storage unit 85 of the RAM 84. Then, the start winning command is specified based on the random number and transmitted to the sub-control board 90. The start winning command includes information on special figure fluctuation patterns (special figure fluctuation pattern information) determined by special figure fluctuation pattern determination performed based on the acquired special figure-related random numbers. As described above, since the special figure variation pattern includes information on the type of the start opening, in other words, the type of the special figure, the start winning command includes the type of the starting opening that generated the start winning command. Information (winning start opening information), in other words, a variable display special figure type (special figure type information) to be performed by winning that generated the start winning command is also included. In addition, since the special figure variation pattern includes information on whether it is a big hit or a loss (presence / absence information) and information on the presence / absence of reach (reach information), the start winning command includes the success / failure information. And reach information.

  The main control board 80 specifies the start winning command using the start winning command specifying table shown in FIG. 22 based on the acquired special figure related random number. The start winning command specifying table is associated with the type of start opening (first start opening 20 / second start opening 22) related to the start winning. That is, the start winning command specifying table includes a starting winning command specifying table (first starting winning command specifying table) when winning at the first starting port 20 and a starting winning command specifying when winning at the second starting port 22. Table (second start winning command specifying table).

  Further, the start winning command specifying table is also associated with the gaming state (non-short-time state / short-time state). That is, the start prize command specifying table includes a start prize command specifying table (non-time saving start winning command specifying table) used in a non-short-time state and a start winning command specifying table (short-time start) used in a time-saving state. Winning command specific table).

  That is, the start winning command specifying table is used in the first start winning command specifying table used in the non-time-saving state, the first starting winning command specifying table used in the time-saving state, and used in the non-time-saving state. There are a second start winning command specifying table and a second starting winning command specifying table used in the time-short state.

  The start winning command only needs to include at least the success / failure information, and what information is included in the starting winning command can be appropriately changed. As described above, the special symbol variable display is performed based on the special symbol related random number. However, prior to the special symbol variable display executed based on the special symbol related random number, the success / failure information or the like is displayed on the sub-control board 90. By transmitting to, it becomes possible to execute a pre-reading effect that suggests the degree of expectation of jackpot, such as a pending change notice to be described later, and improve the game entertainment.

  As described above, by performing the jackpot determination, the jackpot symbol type determination, the reach determination, and the special figure variation pattern determination, the special figure display 41 performs variable display of the special figure. Then, if the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed as a display result (result of the special symbol lottery) in the special symbol variable display, the next special symbol variable display is not immediately performed, and the jackpot game is subsequently executed. The Next, the jackpot game will be described.

  The jackpot game includes a plurality of round games with opening and closing of the big prize opening (the first big prize opening 30 and the second big prize opening 32) and the first round game after the big hit game is started. It includes an opening (also expressed as OP) and an ending (also expressed as ED) from the end of the final round game until the end of the jackpot game. Each round game starts with the end of the opening or the end of the previous round game, and ends with the start of the next round game or the start of the ending. In the following, the round game of the predetermined number of times (predetermined order) is simply referred to as “round”. For example, the first round game (first round) is called “1 round (1R)”, and the 10th round game is called “10 rounds (10R)”.

  The elements constituting such a jackpot game (a jackpot game component) include the number of round games, the number of times the winning holes 30, 32 are opened in each round game, the type and opening of the winning holes for each opening. The time (opening pattern), the time for closing until the next opening (closing time), the opening time (opening time), the ending time (ending time), and the like are included. And each of these elements is matched with the type of the jackpot symbol stopped and displayed. The main control board 80 controls the jackpot game using the jackpot game control table shown in FIG. 23 based on the type of the jackpot symbol displayed in a stopped state. The jackpot game control table stores jackpot game components for each jackpot symbol. Therefore, when the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed, the main control board 80 executes a jackpot game corresponding to the type of the jackpot symbol that is stopped and displayed. Here, the jackpot game corresponding to the type of jackpot symbol will be described.

  In the jackpot game (first jackpot game) corresponding to the jackpot symbol A, the round game is played 16 times. From 1R to 8R, the first grand prize opening 30 is opened for 29.5 seconds at the maximum per round game, and from 1R to 15R, the first for the maximum 0.1 seconds per round game. The big prize opening 30 is opened, and in the 16R (final round), the second big prize opening 32 is opened for a maximum of 29.5 seconds per round game. In the jackpot game, from 9R to 15R, the opening time of the second big prize opening 32 is extremely short, and in reality, it is a round in which the winning to the second big prize opening 32 cannot be expected. That is, the total number of round games in this jackpot game is 16, but the actual number of round games is nine. The actual number of round games is the number of round games in which game balls can be won up to the maximum number of winnings per round game (eight in the first embodiment).

  In the jackpot game (second jackpot game) corresponding to the jackpot symbol B, the round game is played 16 times. From 1R to 8R, the first grand prize opening 30 is opened for 29.5 seconds at the maximum per round game, and from 1R to 15R, the first for the maximum 0.1 seconds per round game. The big prize opening 30 is opened, and in the 16R (final round), the second big prize opening 32 is opened for a maximum of 0.1 second per round game. In the jackpot game from 9R to 16R, the opening time of the second big prize opening 32 is extremely short, and in reality, it is a round in which the winning to the second big prize opening 32 cannot be expected. That is, the total number of round games in this jackpot game is 16, but the actual number of round games is 8.

  In the jackpot game corresponding to the jackpot symbol C (third jackpot game), the round game is played 16 times. From 1R to 15R, the first grand prize winning opening 30 is opened for 29.5 seconds at the maximum per round game, and in the 16R (final round), the maximum is 29.5 seconds per round game. The two major winning openings 32 are opened. That is, in this jackpot game, the total number of round games and the actual number of round games are 16 times.

  Here, since the specific area 34 takes a closed state in which a prize can not be won and an open state in which a prize can be won by the sorting member 361, the operating mode of the sorting member 361 is an opening / closing mode of the specific area 34. it can. Hereinafter, the operation mode of the sorting member 361 is also referred to as “opening / closing mode of the specific region 34”. In this way, the sorting member 361 is controlled in a constant operation mode (the specific region 34 is a constant opening / closing mode), but the constant operation mode of the sorting member 361 (the constant opening / closing mode of the specific region 34), In combination with the opening / closing mode of the second big prize opening 32 in the jackpot game, the difficulty (ease) of making the game ball enter the specific area 34 in the jackpot game is set. Hereinafter, the specific region 34 being in the open state is also referred to as “V open”.

  In 16R of each jackpot game 1-3, the distribution solenoid 362 is energized for 15 seconds after the start of 16R, and the distribution member 361 is controlled to the second state (FIG. 4A). . Therefore, in 16R of the first jackpot game and the third jackpot game, the game is determined from the relationship between the opening time and timing of the second big winning opening 32 and the time and timing controlled to the second state of the distribution member 361. It is easy for the ball to pass through the specific area 34 (the game ball enters the specific area 34). On the other hand, in the second jackpot game 16R, the game ball is placed in the specific area 34 based on the relationship between the opening time and timing of the second big winning opening 32 and the time and timing controlled to the second state of the sorting member 361. It is almost impossible (difficult) to pass through (to make the game ball enter the specific area 34). Thus, in the jackpot game, during the jackpot game, the VAT opening / closing member has a first opening pattern (V long opening pattern) that allows easy passage of the game ball through the specific area 34 (hereinafter also referred to as “V passing”). The VAT opening / closing member 331 and the sorting member 361 are operated in the jackpot game where the 331 and the sorting member 361 are operated and the second opening pattern (V short opening pattern) in which it is impossible or difficult to pass the specific area 34 of the game ball. There is a jackpot game. Thus, winning the jackpot symbol A and jackpot symbol C associated with the jackpot game in which the VAT opening / closing member 331 and the sorting member 361 operate in the V long opening pattern is referred to as “V long jackpot”. On the other hand, winning the jackpot symbol B associated with the jackpot game in which the VAT opening / closing member 331 and the sorting member 361 operate in the V short opening pattern is referred to as “V short jackpot”.

  The main control board 80 newly sets a gaming state after the jackpot game as the jackpot game ends. Specifically, if the game ball passes V during the jackpot game, the main control board 80 sets a high probability state as the jackpot game ends. On the other hand, the main control board 80 does not set a high probability state with the end of the jackpot game unless the game ball passes V during the jackpot game. Therefore, if the above-mentioned V long jackpot (bonus symbol A or jackpot symbol C) is won, the game will proceed with a high probability after the jackpot game with a high probability. Become. On the other hand, when a V short jackpot (big jackpot symbol B) is won, the game progresses with a high probability after the jackpot game in a normal probability state.

  Further, the main control board 80 sets a time-shortening state with the end of the jackpot game, regardless of whether or not V passes during the jackpot game (regardless of whether or not V passes). However, in this case, the number of time reductions differs depending on whether or not the game ball has passed V during the jackpot game. The number of time reductions is an upper limit value of the number of times of special symbol variable display that can be executed in the time reduction state. If the game ball passes V during the jackpot game, the number of time reductions is “180 times”. On the other hand, when the game ball does not pass V during the jackpot game, the number of time reductions is “100”.

  As described above, the distribution ratio of the jackpot symbol type according to the jackpot symbol type determination for special figure 1 is 50% for jackpot symbol A (V long jackpot) and 50% for jackpot symbol B (V short jackpot). . On the other hand, the jackpot symbol type allocation ratio for the special symbol 2 based on the jackpot symbol type determination is 100% for the jackpot symbol C (V long jackpot). That is, when the result of the jackpot determination based on the winning at the second starting port 22 is a jackpot, the V long jackpot game is always executed. In this way, in the pachinko gaming machine 1, the special drawing 2 lottery in which the game ball is won in the second starting port 22 rather than the special drawing 1 lottery in which the game ball is won in the first starting port 20 However, this is advantageous for the player.

  Next, the gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the first embodiment will be described. The gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 includes a gaming state related to the probability of being determined as “big hit” in the jackpot determination, and a gaming state related to the special figure change time and the ease of opening the second start port 22. The former includes a normal probability state and a high probability state. On the other hand, the latter includes a non-short-time state and a short-time state.

  The normal probability state is a gaming state in which the probability that the jackpot determination is determined to be a jackpot is a normal probability, and the high probability state is a gaming state in which the probability that the jackpot determination is determined to be a jackpot is higher than the normal probability. is there. When power is first turned on in the pachinko gaming machine 1, a normal probability state is set. A high probability state is set when the game ball passes through the specific area 34 (V passes) in the jackpot game. Then, after the high probability state is set, when the special figure variable display is executed 180 times without winning the jackpot, the state shifts from the high probability state to the normal probability state.

  Next, the non-time-short state and the time-short state will be described. The time-short state is a gaming state in which the special figure variation time is likely to be shorter than the non-time-short state. Specifically, in the short-time state, a special-figure fluctuation pattern is determined using a special-figure fluctuation pattern determination table that is determined so that a special-figure fluctuation pattern having a short special-figure fluctuation time is selected more than in the non-time-short state. A determination is made (see FIGS. 20 to 21). As a result, in the short-time state, the special-patch holding pace is accelerated, and an effective winning (a winning that can be stored as a special-pending hold) at the starting port is likely to occur. Therefore, it is possible to aim for a big hit with smooth progress of the game.

  In addition, it can be said that the short time state is a gaming state in which the normal time variation time is likely to be shorter than the normal gaming state as compared to the non-time short state. In the first embodiment, the usual figure fluctuation time is determined based on a usual figure fluctuation pattern determination table associated with the gaming state. Specifically, the normal time fluctuation time is determined to be 30.0 seconds in the non-short-time state, and is determined to be 5.0 seconds in the short-time state. Therefore, the number of times of the general drawing lottery per unit time is larger in the short time state.

  Furthermore, it can be said that the time-short state is a gaming state in which the opening time of the electric chew 23 in one auxiliary game is likely to be longer than the normal state as compared to the non-time-short state. This is because, in the non-short-time state, the electric chew 23 is released for 0.08 seconds in one auxiliary game, whereas the electric chew 23 is released in 3.0 seconds in one auxiliary game in the time-short state. is there.

  Furthermore, it can be said that the time-short state is a gaming state that is more likely to be determined as a win in the hit determination than the non-time-short state. This is because, in the non-short-time state, it is determined that the hit is determined with a probability of 6600/65536, whereas in the time-short state, it is determined that the hit is determined with a probability of 59936/65536. Therefore, the number of times that the time reduction state is determined to be successful in the hit determination per unit time is larger.

  As described above, in the time reduction state, the open time of the electric chew 23 per unit time is longer than in the non-time reduction state, and it is easy for the game balls to win the second start port 22 frequently. As a result, the base, which is the ratio of the number of prize balls to the number of shot balls, becomes high. Therefore, in a short time state with a high base, it is possible to aim for a big win without significantly reducing the number of game balls possessed.

  When power is first turned on in the pachinko gaming machine 1, a non-time-saving state is set. And a time-short state is set by winning a jackpot. Then, when the special time variable display is executed a predetermined number of times without winning the jackpot after the time reduction state is set, the state shifts from the time reduction state to the non-time reduction state. This predetermined number of times depends on whether or not V passes in the jackpot game. The predetermined number of times when V passes is 180 times, and the predetermined number of times when V does not pass is 100 times.

  In the short-time state, it is easier to win the win, the normal fluctuation time is likely to be shorter, and the opening time of the electric chew 23 in one auxiliary game is likely to be longer. Regarding the game according to the above, three points are set to be advantageous to the player, but the point set to be advantageous to the player may be a part of them. Finally, in the short time state, it is sufficient that the opening time of the electric chew 23 per unit time becomes longer than in the normal game state, and the game balls are likely to win frequently at the second start port 22.

  Note that the gaming state after the power is first turned on in the pachinko gaming machine 1 is a normal probability state and a non-time-short state, but this gaming state is also referred to as a “normal gaming state”. During the jackpot game, the game state is set to the normal game state. That is, with the start of the jackpot game, the game state is reset and the normal game state is set.

4). Description of production by the sub-control board 90 As described above, the main control board 80 performs special drawing lottery, special display variable display, jackpot game, etc., when the game ball wins the start openings 20 and 22. The sub-control board 90 executes various effects according to the contents of the games played by these main control boards 80. Hereinafter, specific examples of various effects performed by the sub-control board 90 will be described with reference to FIGS. 24 to 35, in order to explain various effects, the display units 7a and 8a, the left frame movable device 13L, the front panel movable device 14, and the rear panel movable device 15 of the pachinko gaming machine 1 are mainly partially arranged. It is simplified and extracted.

4-1. Special figure variation effect First, the special figure variation effect will be described. When the variable display of the special symbol is started, the sub-control board 90 has a special symbol variation pattern and a special symbol lottery result (a jackpot determination result, a jackpot symbol type determination result, a reach determination result, and The special figure fluctuation effect is controlled based on the special figure fluctuation pattern determination result). In the special figure variation effect, the display parts 7a and 8a perform variable display of the effect symbol in a superimposed manner on a predetermined background image. In the variable display of the effect symbol, the effect symbol stops after the effect symbol fluctuates. That is, after the special symbol variation time and the effect symbol variation display are performed, the variation is stopped, and the effect symbol stop display is performed. When the effect symbols are displayed in a variable manner, the possibility of winning the jackpot (the so-called “big hit expectation”) may be suggested. And the result of a special figure lottery is alert | reported by the stop display of an effect design. In the first embodiment, various images are used across the lower display unit 7a of the lower image display device 7 and the upper display unit 8a of the upper image display device 8 that are arranged side by side in a front view. A special figure variation effect is executed, that is, one image effect may be executed using the lower display unit 7a and the upper display unit 8a. Note that a specific image effect may be executed using only one of the lower display unit 7a and the upper display unit 8a.

  The production content of the special figure variation production is associated with the production mode. The effect mode is a category (or higher-level conceptual attribute) of the special figure change effect. In the first embodiment, a normal effect mode, a probability variation effect mode, and a time reduction effect mode are set as the effect modes. Therefore, the special figure variation effects include a special figure variation effect in the normal effect mode, a special figure variation effect in the probability variation effect mode, and a special figure variation effect in the time reduction effect mode.

  The normal effect mode is an effect mode that can be set in the normal game state and indicates the normal game state. When the normal effect mode is set, a mountain background image is displayed on the display units 7a and 8a. Further, the probability variation effect mode is an effect mode that can be set in a high probability state and a short time state, and is an effect mode that indicates a high probability state and a short time state. When the high probability state and the short time state mode are set, the background image of the universe is displayed on the display units 7a and 8a. Furthermore, the time reduction effect mode is an effect mode that can be set in the normal probability state and the time reduction state, and is an effect mode that indicates the normal probability state and the time reduction state. When the time reduction effect mode is set, an empty background image is displayed on the display units 7a and 8a. The background image here is mainly the development effect in the special variation effect, the L reach, and the SP reach effect, in other words, all the sections in the normal change effect and before the development effect in the special change effect where the reach is established. It is a background image when the section from the start of the special figure variation effect to the reach + during the reach + N reach and the special figure variation effect and the demonstration effect are not executed. As will be described later, in the development effect, the L reach, and the SP reach, a background image dedicated to the effect is displayed.

  As shown in FIG. 24, the background image in the normal effect mode includes a background image G100 (daytime normal background image G100) representing daytime mountain scenery and a background image G101 (evening evening) representing evening mountain scenery. There are a normal background image G101) and a background image G102 (night normal background image G102) representing a night mountain landscape. The daytime normal background image G100, the evening normal background image G101, and the nighttime normal background image G102 are displayed 50 times without winning a jackpot when the normal background image is displayed. It is switched as one condition that the figure variation effect is performed. In the first embodiment, when the special day variation effect is performed 50 times while the daytime normal background image G100 is displayed, the daytime normal background image G100 is switched to the evening normal background image G101, and the evening normal background is displayed. When the special figure change effect is performed 50 times while the image G101 is displayed, the normal background image G102 is switched from the evening normal background image G102 to the night normal background image G102, and 50 when the night normal background image G102 is displayed. When the special drawing change effect is performed, the night normal background image G102 is switched to the daytime normal background image G100. That is, the normal background image is switched in a predetermined order: daytime normal background image G100 → evening normal background image G101 → night normal background image G102 → daytime normal background image G100. Note that the normal daytime background image G100 is displayed immediately after the pachinko gaming machine 1 is powered on.

  Next, a region where an effect is produced in the display units 7a and 8a will be described. As shown in FIG. 25 (A), the left side, the center, and the right side of the display units 7a, 8a divided into three substantially equally in the horizontal direction are the left side design symbol region 70a1, the central product design symbol region 70a2, and the right side effect, respectively. Let it be a symbol area 70a3. The left effect symbol area 70a1 is an area for displaying the left effect symbol EZ1 when the special effect and the N reach in the special symbol variation effect and the effect symbol stop display. Similarly, the center effect symbol area 70a2 and the right effect symbol area 70a3 are areas for displaying the middle effect symbol EZ2 and the right effect symbol EZ3.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 25A, the small symbol area 71a formed by a section of the left end (upper left corner) of the upper end portion of the upper display portion 8a is small when the special figure variable display is performed. This is an area in which symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are variably displayed.

  In FIG. 25A, the left effect symbol area 70a1, the center effect symbol area 70a2, the right effect symbol area 70a3, and the small symbol area 71a are clearly indicated by broken lines. It is described to represent the range of the effect symbol area 70a2, the right effect symbol area 70a3, and the small symbol area 71a, and is not actually displayed.

  Next, a specific example of the special figure variation effect will be described. However, in the following, the special figure variation effect performed when the normal effect mode is set and the normal daytime background image G100 is displayed on the display units 7a and 8a will be described. For example, as shown in FIG. 25A, on the display units 7a and 8a, the left effect symbol EZ1, the middle effect symbol EZ2, and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed on the daytime normal background image G100. The left small symbol KZ1, the medium small symbol KZ2 and the right small symbol KZ3 are displayed in a stopped state, the special symbol is not displayed, and the special symbol is changed. When the display is started, as shown in FIG. 25 (B), the display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is started with the start, and the left small symbol KZ1, the medium small symbol KZ2, and the right small symbol are displayed. KZ3 variation display is started. If the special figure fluctuation pattern of the newly started special symbol fluctuation display is a special figure fluctuation pattern with no reach loss (for example, a normal A loss fluctuation), the special symbol fluctuation does not occur without reaching. With the end of the display (stop display of the special symbol), the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped and displayed at the losing eyes (so-called “separated eyes”) peculiar to the losing without reach. For example, as shown in FIG. 25 (C), the left effect symbol EZ1 temporarily stops at a substantially central position in the up-down direction, and then moves toward the stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3. As shown in FIG. 25, the right effect symbol EZ3 temporarily stops at the approximately vertical center position, and as shown in FIG. 25E, the medium effect symbol EZ2 temporarily stops at the approximately vertical center position. And finally, as shown in FIG. 25 (F), the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 temporarily stopped in a state of being horizontally aligned at the substantially vertical position in the vertical direction, are completely stopped as they are, Stop is confirmed (stop display of effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is performed). When the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 that have been temporarily stopped completely stop with a break, that is, when the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are stopped, the three small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are It stops at the same break with the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3, and the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped.

  In the example of FIG. 25, when the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped, the effect symbols are temporarily stopped in the order of the left effect symbol EZ1, the right effect symbol EZ3, and the middle effect symbol EZ2. The aspect to stop is not restricted to this, It can set suitably.

  Next, the special figure variation effect when the reach occurs will be described. Also in this case, as in the case of no reach described above, the left effect symbol EZ1, the middle effect symbol EZ2, and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed on the display units 7a and 8a as shown in FIG. At the same time, when the left small symbol KZ1, the medium small symbol KZ2 and the right small symbol KZ3 are stopped and displayed, the special symbol variation display is started, and as shown in FIG. 26 (B), the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, It is assumed that the change display of EZ3 starts and the change display of the left small symbol KZ1, the medium small symbol KZ2, and the right small symbol KZ3 starts. Then, for example, as shown in FIG. 26 (C), the left effect symbol EZ1 consisting of the numeral “5” temporarily stops at the substantially vertical center position, and then, as shown in FIG. 26 (D), the same numeral The right effect symbol EZ3 consisting of “5” temporarily stops in parallel in the horizontal direction at approximately the center position in the vertical direction, and reaches (reach occurs or is established). Even if reach is established in the effect symbol, the variable display of the left small symbol KZ1, the medium small symbol KZ2, and the right small symbol KZ3 is continuously performed.

  In the example of FIG. 26, when the reach occurs, the effect symbols are temporarily stopped in the order of the left effect symbol EZ1 → the right effect symbol EZ3. Can do. In addition, the number of production symbols constituting the reach is not limited to “5”. Also, the temporary stop position is not limited to the substantially central position in the vertical direction. Further, the direction in which the production symbols constituting the reach are arranged is not limited to the horizontal direction, and may be another direction such as an oblique direction.

  Next, an effect (reach effect) performed in a state where the reach is held after reach is established will be described. As shown in FIG. 26D, when reach is established, N reach is started from that point. In the N reach, as shown in FIG. 27A, the state where the reach is established is maintained for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds). When the N reach is started, as shown in FIG. 27 (B), the medium effect symbol EZ2 that is changing and displaying (scrolling) at a high speed in the normal mode is gradually decelerated.

  Here, when the special figure variation effect being executed ends with N reach, the intermediate effect symbol EZ2 is temporarily stopped from the N reach state at a substantially central position in the vertical direction, and an effect according to the result of the special figure lottery. The symbol is stopped and displayed. If the lottery result of the special drawing lottery caused by the special drawing variation effect being executed is “losing”, the stop display of the production symbol indicating the losing is performed. In this special figure variation effect, since reach has occurred, as shown in FIG. 27 (C-1), from a number (“4” in FIG. 27 (C-1)) different from the numbers constituting the reach. During this period, the effect design EZ2 is temporarily stopped. Then, with the end of the special symbol variation display (special symbol stop display), as shown in FIG. 27 (D-1), the temporary stop state becomes a complete stop state, which is characteristic of the loss with reach. The left effect symbol EZ1, the middle effect symbol EZ2, and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed. In addition, when the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 that have been temporarily stopped completely stop at the losing eyes peculiar to the loss with reach, that is, when the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are stopped and displayed, The symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are stopped at the same time as the loss that is unique to the reach loss same as the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3, and the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped.

  On the other hand, when the lottery result of the special figure lottery is “big hit” and the special figure fluctuation effect ends with N reach, as shown in FIG. 27C-2, for example, it is the same as the numbers constituting the reach. As shown in FIG. 27 (D-2), the middle production symbol EZ2 consisting of numbers temporarily stops at the substantially central position in the vertical direction, and the special symbol change display ends (the special symbol stop display), as shown in FIG. The state is completely stopped, and the left effect symbol EZ1, the middle effect symbol EZ2, and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed with a hitting characteristic peculiar to a jackpot such as a doublet. In addition, when the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 that have been temporarily stopped completely stop at the hits unique to the jackpot, that is, when the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are stopped, the three small symbols KZ1 are displayed. , KZ2, and KZ3 are stopped at the same time as the big hits that are the same as the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3, and the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped.

  Further, when the special figure variation effect does not end with N reach, in other words, when it develops to L reach or SP reach via the development effect, for example, the medium effect design EZ2 when it ends with N reach temporarily stops. At substantially the same timing as the timing, the medium performance symbol EZ2 again performs the fluctuation display in the normal mode (at a high speed) and enters the development performance.

  Next, the development effect will be described. When the development effect is started, as shown in FIG. 28 (A), the temporarily stopped left effect symbol EZ1 moves to a position just below the small symbol region 71a on the upper left of the upper display portion 8a while being reduced, The temporarily produced right production symbol EZ3 is reduced and moves to the position of the same height as the left production symbol EZ1 at the upper right of the upper display portion 8a. Further, when the development effect is started, the normal background image G100 for daytime is switched to the background image G103 dedicated to the development effect (background image G103 for development effect). In the development effect background image G103, first, the whole body of the main character standing in a normal state without transformation is displayed. Then, as shown in FIGS. 28 (B) to 28 (C), the hero character gradually increases, and finally the entire face of the hero character is displayed in an up state.

  In this way, in the development effect, when the entire face of the main character in a normal state that has not been transformed is up, it is then expanded to any one of the plurality of effect contents. That is, the improvement of the entire face of the main character in the normal state that is not transformed becomes a branch point of the effect contents in the development effect (hereinafter also referred to as “branch point during development effect”). And the production contents ahead suggest the expectation of jackpot. In the first embodiment, three types of effect contents are set as effect contents after the entire face of the main character in a normal state not transformed. Next, the content of the branch point effect in the development effect will be described.

  In the first effect, first, as shown in FIG. 29A, the front panel movable device 14 is operated to operate the front left upper panel 14UL1, the front upper panel right movable body 14UR1, and the lower front panel movable body. 14D1 merges to cover the main character displayed on the lower display portion 7a. In this state, the main character in the normal state that has not been transformed and is displayed on the lower display unit 7a through the front left upper transmission part 14UL12, the front front right transmission part 14UR12, and the front lower transmission part 14D12. Can be visually recognized.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 29B, the rear panel movable device 15 is operated, and the rear panel upper movable body 15U1 and the rear panel lower movable body 15D1 are combined and displayed on the lower display portion 7a. It enters between the hero character and the front movable body 141 that is united and integrated to cover the hero character. That is, in the state of FIG. 29B, particularly in front view, the rear panel movable body 151 disposed on the rear side and the front panel movable body disposed on the front side of the lower display portion 7a. 141 and integrated. Further, in the rear panel movable device 15, the rear panel movable body 151 operates, and the rear panel upper point light emitting device 15U41 and the rear panel lower point light emitting device 15D41 emit light strongly in white. At this time, an image that emits white light is displayed in the entire area of the lower display portion 7a. Here, the rear panel movable device 15 emits white light as a whole, and the front panel movable body 141 has a front panel transmission part 1412, so that the front panel movable body 141 is white along the front panel transmission part 1412. It seems to emit light.

  A state in which the rear panel movable body 151 and the front panel movable body 141 are integrated by overlapping in the front-rear direction, and the rear panel upper point light emitting device 15U41 and the rear panel lower point light emitting device 15D41 emit white light for a predetermined time. When held (for example, for 3 seconds), the front panel movable body 141 once returns to the normal standby state (initial position). While the front panel movable body 141 returns to the normal standby state (initial position), the rear panel upper point light emitting device 15U41 and the rear panel lower point light emitting device 15D41 are turned off, but the rear panel upper surface light emitting device 15U42 and the rear panel lower surface. The light emitting device 15D42 weakly emits surface light. The rear panel upper surface light emitting device 15U42 and the rear panel lower surface light emitting device 15D42 emit surface light in white, and the rear panel upper movable body 15U1 and the rear panel lower movable body 15D1 have transmission portions 15U12 and 15D12. 151 appears to emit white light along the transmissive portions 15U12 and 15D12. Note that when the panel rear upper surface light emitting device 15U42 and the panel rear lower surface light emitting device 15D42 are weakly emitting light, a black image is displayed (blacked out) so as to be turned off in the entire area of the lower display portion 7a.

  Then, when the standby state of the front panel movable device 14 and the surface emission states of the rear panel top surface light emitting device 15U42 and the rear panel bottom surface light emitting device 15D42 are held for a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds), the front panel movable device 14 again. Is operated, the front front left movable body 14UL1, the front front right movable body 14UR1 and the front front lower movable body 14D1 are combined, and the combined rear integrated movable body 151 is covered. Here, when the front panel movable device 14 operates, the rear panel upper point light emitting device 15U41 and the rear panel lower point light emitting device 15D41 emit light in a predetermined color. Here, the rear panel upper point light emitting device 15U41 and the rear panel lower point light emitting device 15D41 emit point light in a predetermined color, and the front panel movable body 141 has the front panel transmission part 1412. It appears that light is emitted in a predetermined color along the front panel transmission part 1412.

  Further, a plurality of types of light emission colors are set when the back panel light emitting device 1541 emits light with the second operation of the front panel movable device 14. Specifically, white, green, blue and red are set. This emission color suggests the degree of expectation that will be a big hit in the special display variable display that is currently being executed (expected degree of big hit). In the first embodiment, the expectation level for jackpots suggested by the emission color of the rear panel light emitting device 1541 is high in the order of red> blue> green> white.

  The rear panel movable body 151 and the front panel movable body 141 are overlapped and integrated in the front-rear direction, and the rear panel point light emitting device 1541 emits light in a predetermined color for a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds). Then, as shown in FIGS. 29 (E) to 29 (F), the front panel movable body 141 returns to the normal standby state (initial position), and then the rear panel movable body 151 is in the normal standby state. Return to. When the front panel movable body 141 returns to the normal standby state, the rear panel point light emitting device 1541 is turned off, and the rear panel movable device 15 is not emitting light.

  When the rear panel movable device 15 returns to the normal standby state, a scene in which the main character transformed into a special state is displayed large across the lower display portion 7a and the upper display portion 8a is displayed, and the SP reach is developed.

  As described above, the main board until the front panel movable body 141 is actuated for the first time (FIG. 29A), and the rear panel movable device 15 is turned off to return to the standby state (FIG. 29F). A series of effects by the front movable device 14 and the rear panel movable device 15 is referred to as “drive light emission effect”. In the first time, the front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151 overlap in the front-rear direction on the substantially entire front side of the lower display portion 7a, and the panel rear point light emitting device 1541 emits white light for a short time. ) Is designated as “first half drive lighting effect”. Also, for the second time, the front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151 overlap in the front-rear direction on the substantially front side of the entire lower display portion 7a, and the rear panel point light emitting device 1541 performs point emission with a predetermined color for a long time ( State) is set to “second half drive light emission effect”.

  Although not shown, when the second half driving light emission effect is started, the left frame movable device 13L and the right frame movable device 13R are operated (the left frame movable body 13LU1 and the right frame movable body 13RU1 are operated). Rotating clockwise and left frame lower movable body 13LD1 and right frame lower movable body 13RD1 rotating counterclockwise) Overall third display portion 13L13 of left frame movable device 13L and overall third display of right frame movable device 13R The portion 13R13 is completed facing the front. At that time, the extreme hot light emitting devices 13LU131 and 13LD132 of the left frame movable device 13L and the extreme hot light emitting devices 13LU131 and 13LD132 of the right frame movable device 13R emit light in white, and the left frame movable device 13L and the right frame movable device 13R. Each of the letters “Gekiatsu” appears to be shining in white.

  In addition, as the content of the production after the branch point composed of the entire face of the main character in the normal state not transformed, the second production content is the first front content movable body in the first production content At approximately the same timing as when 141 is activated, the main character displayed on the lower display portion 7a is transformed into a special state as shown in FIG. 30A, and then 1 as shown in FIG. 30B. As in the case of the first production content, a scene in which the main character transformed into a special state is displayed large across the lower display portion 7a and the upper display portion 8a is displayed, and the SP reach is developed. In the development effect in this case, the frame movable device 13 does not operate or emit light, and the standby state is maintained.

  In addition, as the effect content after the branch point constituted by the entire face of the main character in the normal state not transformed, the branch point is configured as shown in FIG. 31 (A) in the third effect content. The hero character transformed into the special state with the second effect content is displayed across the lower display part 7a and the upper display part 8a. At another timing when the scene being displayed is displayed and developed into SP reach, it develops into L reach or SP reach. Even in the development effect in this case, the frame movable device 13 does not operate or emit light, and the standby state is maintained.

  In this way, in the development effect, one effect content of the three types of effect contents is developed after the branch point constituted by the entire face of the main character in the normal state not transformed. That is, in the first embodiment, three effect patterns are set for the development effect. In the following, after the branch point formed by raising the entire face of the main character in the normal state without transformation, as shown in FIGS. 29 (A) to 29 (F), the first half drive emission effect → the second half drive emission An effect pattern of the development effect in which the effect is executed in stages is referred to as “development effect pattern 1”. In addition, after the branch point formed by raising the entire face of the hero character, as shown in FIGS. 30A to 30B, the hero character in the normal state displayed on the lower display portion 7a is special. The development pattern of the development effect that transforms into a state is referred to as “development effect pattern 2”. Further, after the branch point formed by raising the entire face of the main character, as shown in FIG. 31 (A), the lower display unit 7a is not performed without driving light emission effect or transformation of the main character into a special state. The development pattern of the development effect in which the main character in the normal state displayed on is continuously displayed is “development effect pattern 3”.

  And if the development effect of the development effect pattern 1-the development effect pattern 3 is performed, SP reach or L reach will be performed after that. That is, the development effect is a crossroads that relays the development to L reach or SP reach. And the expectation degree in which L reach is performed and the expectation degree in which SP reach is performed differ with the production pattern of an expansion effect. In the first embodiment, the degree of expectation that SP reach is executed in the order of development effect pattern 1 = development effect pattern 2> development effect pattern 3 is high. On the other hand, the degree of expectation that L reach is executed in the order of development effect pattern 1 = development effect pattern 2 <development effect pattern 3 is high. Further, the degree of expectation for winning the jackpot symbol A, that is, the degree of expectation that the V long jackpot game is executed differs depending on the effect pattern of the development effect. In the first embodiment, the expectation of winning the jackpot symbol A in the order of development effect pattern 1> development effect pattern 2> development effect pattern 3 is high.

  Next, SP reach will be described. In the SP reach, the display unit 7a, 8a is a realistic image that is close to a real image by a three-dimensional drawing image, and the image of the hero character transformed into a special state battles with the enemy character at the enemy character base. Flowing (displayed). SP reach A and SP reach B are provided as SP reach production types. SP reach A is an effect of the content that the main character battles with the enemy character A. On the other hand, the SP reach B is an effect that the main character battles with the enemy character B. SP reach A and SP reach B have higher SP jackpot expectations. Here, SP reach will be described using SP reach A. In the SP reach, in addition to the effects produced by the images displayed on the display units 7a and 8a, the sound output from the speaker 11 and the light emission effect produced by the frame lamp 12 are appropriately performed.

  When SP reach A is started, the background image G104 (SP reach A background image G104) dedicated to SP reach A is switched. When switching to the SP reach A background image G104, first, as shown in FIG. 32A, the enemy character A appears largely across the lower display portion 7a and the upper display portion 8a, and FIG. As shown in the figure, a scene in which the main character and the enemy character A are confronting each other is displayed. Next, as shown in FIG. 32C, a large image (SP reach start title image) G1 indicating that SP reach A has started is displayed at the center of the display units 7a and 8a. The SP reach start title image G1 is composed of a title image G11 representing the title of SP reach A ““ Defeat enemy A! ”In FIG. 32C and an effect image G12 that enhances the title image G11.

  Here, a plurality of types of effect image G12 are set. Specifically, white, green, blue and red are set. The color of the effect image G12 suggests a degree of expectation (a degree of jackpot expectation) that is a big hit in the special figure variable display currently being executed. In the first embodiment, the big hit expectation degree suggested by the color of the effect image G12 in the order of red> blue> green> white is high.

  When the SP reach start title image G1 is displayed, the frame movable device 13 emits light while completing a predetermined entire display unit. Here, a combination of the light emission color of the entire display unit and frame movable device 13 to be completed and the color of the effect image G12 is set in advance. For example, when the color of the effect image G12 is white, the left frame movable body 13L1 faces the front face of the entire first display unit 13L11, and all the scale light emitting units 13L111 to 13L115 emit white light. When the color of the effect image G12 is blue, the left frame movable body 13L1 faces the front face of the entire first display portion 13L11, and all the scale light emitting portions 13L111 to 13L115 emit light in blue. When the color of the effect image G12 is green, the left frame movable body 13L1 faces the front face of the entire first display portion 13L11, and all the scale light emitting portions 13L111 to 13L115 emit light in green. If the color of the effect image G12 is red, the left frame movable body 13L1 faces the front surface of the entire third display unit 13L13, and the intense light emitting devices 13LU131 and 13LD132 emit light in red. The right frame movable body 13R1, the scale light emitting units 13R111 to 13R115 of the right frame movable device 13R, and the intense light emitting devices 13RU131 and 13RD132 of the right frame movable device 13R are also scale light emission of the left frame movable body 13L1 and the left frame movable device 13L. It is controlled to be in the same state as the light emitting devices 13LU131 and 13LD132 for the intense heating of the parts 13L111 to 13L115 and the left frame movable device 13L. In the following, an effect that suggests the degree of expectation of jackpot by the color of the effect image G12 of the SP reach start title image G1 is referred to as “title notice”. An effect in which the frame first light emitting device 1331 or the frame third light emitting device 1333 of the frame movable device 13 emits light in the same color as the effect image G12 when the title notice is executed is referred to as “frame light emission color effect”.

  In addition, when the drive light emission effect is executed as the development effect, the entire third display portion 1313 of the movable frame body 131 faces the front, and the intense light emitting devices 13131 and 13132 emit light in red. Therefore, when the color of the effect image G12 after the drive light emission effect is performed is white, the frame movable device 13 is activated and the frame movable body 13U1 rotates two upper display portions clockwise, The lower frame movable body 13D1 rotates two lower display parts, counterclockwise, and the entire display unit completed (facing the front) is switched from the entire third display unit 1313 to the entire first display unit 1311. Further, the red light emission of the intense light emitting devices 13131 and 13132 is switched to the white light emission of the scale light emitting units 13111 to 13115.

  Similarly, when the effect image G12 after the driving light emission effect is performed is green or blue, the entire display unit that is completed (facing the front) is displayed from the third display unit 1313 to the first display unit. In addition to switching to the unit 1311, the red light emission of the intense light emitting devices 13131 and 13132 is switched to the green light emission and blue light emission of the scale light emission units 13111 to 13115. Furthermore, when the color of the effect image G12 after the drive light emission effect is performed is red, the entire display unit that is completed (facing the front) is maintained as the third display unit 1313 and is also used for intense heating. Red light emission of the light emitting devices 13131 and 13132 is maintained.

  In addition, when the effect image G12 is white, green, or blue after the driving light emission effect is not performed, the entire frame display unit is maintained as the first first display unit 1311 without the frame movable device 13 being operated. However, the scale light emitting units 13111 to 13115 emit light in white, green, and blue. Furthermore, when the color of the effect image G12 is red after the driving light emission effect is not performed, the entire frame display unit is activated and completed (facing the front) from the entire first display unit 1311. While switching to the third display unit 1313, the intense light emitting devices 13131 and 13132 emit red light.

  Then, when the SP reach start title image G1 is erased, all the light emitting units and the light emitting devices that the frame movable device 13 includes can emit light with a predetermined emission color corresponding to the erased effect image G12. The frame movable body 131 starts to rotate. Specifically, the left frame upper movable body 13LU1 and the right frame movable body 13RU1 rotate clockwise in plan view, and the left frame lower movable body 13LD1 and right frame lower movable body 13RD1 counterclockwise in plan view. Rotate. The light emission and rotation in the predetermined color are continuously performed up to a winning / losing branch point described later.

  If SP reach B is executed, the enemy character B appears instead of the enemy character A, and the content of the title image G11 is “Destroy enemy B!”.

  Then, the battle in SP reach A further proceeds, and as shown in FIG. 33 (A), in the SP reach A background image G104, the profile of the hero character transformed into a special state is displayed. ) When the profile of the enemy character A is displayed, as shown in FIG. 33 (C), the swords of both characters tend to be misplaced, and the battle between the main character and the enemy character A is settled. The scene to try is greeted. This scene constitutes a branch point (winning / branching branch point) of whether the main character wins or loses in the battle. When the winning / losing branch point is reached, a period during which the pressing operation of the sword-shaped button 64 is valid (sword-shaped button operation effective period) occurs.

  Along with the occurrence of the sword-shaped button operation effective period, a sword-shaped button operation promotion effect is made to urge the sword-shaped button 64 to be operated. The sword-type button operation promotion effect is configured by displaying a sword-type button operation promotion image G3. As shown in FIG. 34A, the sword-shaped button operation promotion image G3 represents an image (sword-shaped button image) G31 representing the sword-shaped button 64 and an operation mode (that is, a pressing operation) of the sword-shaped button 64. An image (pressing operation image) G32 and an image (operation effective period remaining time image) G33 representing the remaining time of the operation effective period (sword-shaped button operation effective period) related to the operation of the sword-shaped button 64 are included. Note that the sword-shaped button operation effective period remaining time image G33 is generally composed of a linear progress bar, and changes with time so that the player can easily understand the remaining time of the effect button operation effective period. . FIG. 34B shows a state in which a sword-shaped button operation effective period has occurred and a time of 1/3 of the sword-shaped button operation effective time has elapsed.

  Here, when the special figure fluctuation pattern related to the SP reach A being executed is the SP jackpot fluctuation, when the sword-shaped button 64 is pressed during the sword-shaped button operation effective period, or during the sword-shaped button operation effective period. When the remaining time of the operation effective period runs out without operating the sword-shaped button 64, as shown in FIG. 34 (C), the front panel movable device 14 is activated, and the front left upper movable body 14UL1, front panel The upper right movable body 14UR1 and the front lower panel movable body 14D1 are united, and the rear panel movable device 15 is operated, and immediately behind the front panel movable body 141 integrated and integrated, the rear panel upper movable body 15U1, the panel The rear lower movable body 15D1 is united and integrated. As a result, the front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151 combined and integrated overlap each other in the front-rear direction. Further, the rear panel upper point light emitting device 15U41 and the rear panel lower point light emitting device 15D41 emit white light strongly.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 35 (A), a hero character in a special state that is large in the center across the lower display portion 7a and the upper display portion 8a and wins the battle and stands standing is displayed. A predetermined sound effect is output. At this time, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are temporarily stopped and displayed in a manner showing a big hit. Thus, the operation of the front panel movable device 14 and the rear panel movable device 15, the light emission of the rear panel point light emitting device 1541, the display of the hero character transformed into a special state that wins the battle and stands, The output of the sound effect constitutes an effect for notifying the jackpot (a jackpot notification effect). Finally, as shown in FIG. 35 (B), the SP reach A background image G104 is switched to the normal daytime background image G100, and as shown in FIG. , EZ2, EZ3 and small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are stopped and displayed.

  In addition, when the special figure fluctuation pattern related to the SP reach A being executed is SP loss fluctuation, when the sword-shaped button 64 is pressed during the effective period of the sword-shaped button operation at the winning or losing branch point, When the effect button operation valid period ends (the sword-shaped button operation valid time elapses) without pressing 64, as shown in FIG. 35 (A), the jackpot notification effect is not performed and the SP reach A In the background image G104, an image in which the main character by 3DCG is defeated in the battle flows. Then, for example, as shown in FIG. 27 (C-1), the temporary stop display of the effect symbol is performed in a manner indicating a loss, and the effect symbol is displayed as it is as shown in FIG. 27 (D-1). Is stopped.

  As described above, the rotation and light emission by the frame movable device 13 started when the SP reach start title image G1 is displayed are continuously executed up to the winning and losing branch point, and with the start of the sword-type button operation promotion effect. To finish. Then, the movable frame body 131 is rotated so that the entire first display portion 1311 faces the front, and the movable frame device 13 returns to the initial state.

  As described above, the pachinko gaming machine 1 is disposed on the rear side, and is disposed on the front side, with the rear panel movable device 15 including the rear panel movable body 151 provided with a planar design (hero character) on the front surface. A front panel movable device 14 having a front panel movable body 141 having a three-dimensional design (hero character) on its front surface. When the specific condition is satisfied, the rear panel movable body 151 and the front panel movable body 141 move, overlap in the front-rear direction, and are combined with a planar design and a three-dimensional design, so that the production effect is enhanced. , Game entertainment will improve. The rear panel movable body 151 includes a rear panel upper movable body 15U1 and a rear panel movable body 15D1, and the front panel movable body 141 includes a front panel movable body 14U1 and a front panel lower movable body 14D1. It is configured. Then, the rear rear movable body 15U1 and the front front movable body 14U1 are lowered, the rear rear movable body 15D1 and the front lower movable body 14D1 are lifted, and the rear rear movable body 15U1 and the rear rear movable body 15D1. As a result, the movable body 151 behind the board representing the hero character is completed, and the movable body 141 before the board representing the hero character by combining the movable body 14U1 in front of the board and the movable body 14D1 in front of the board is completed. Since the front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151 overlap in the front-rear direction, a powerful effect is produced in the production, and the production effect can be enhanced.

  In addition, since the front movable body 141 arranged on the front side has a three-dimensional design with more unevenness, the front movable body 141 that can be seen to be integrated in the front and rear, The stereoscopic effect of the rear panel movable body 151 can be enhanced. In addition, since the subject matter of the design applied to the front surface of the front movable body 141 and the design applied to the front surface of the rear movable body 151 is common to the main character in the special state (the same), it overlaps the front and rear. It can be suppressed that the front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151, which can be seen as if they are integrated, become complicated and the production effect is lowered.

  Furthermore, the front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151 can move and appear to be integrated in the front-rear direction, and in addition, only the front panel movable body 141 has moved, and the rear panel movable body is movable. Since there is also a state where only the body 151 has moved, the variety of effects using the movable front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151 is increased. Further, after the front panel movable body 141 moves (combines), the rear panel movable body 151 moves (combines), and the integration of the front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151 is completed in stages. The integration can be impressed and the production effect can be enhanced. Further, after the front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151 are integrated in the front-rear direction, the first front panel movable body 141 that has moved first returns to the standby state before the movement, and then moves (combines) again. The front panel movable body 141 and the rear panel movable body 151 are integrated. That is, in the series of driving light emission effects, the integration is completed twice through different paths, so that the effect of the driving light emission effects can be increased and the effect can be enhanced.

  Further, the rear upper movable body 15U1 is completely hidden by the upper image display device 8 in the standby state, and appears from the state through the gap S between the upper image display device 8 and the lower image display device 7. , It can surprise the player and enhance the production effect. In addition, it is easy to see through the opening 2A of the game board 2 in which the game area 3 located in front of the player is formed, and in front of the lower display part 7a in which various image effects are performed and easy to notice. Since the upper movable body 15U1 appears, it is possible to effectively enhance the effect of production by moving the rear movable body 15U1. Further, the lower display unit 7a and the upper display unit 8a are arranged without gaps in the vertical direction when viewed from the front (connected in the vertical direction), and the lower display unit 7a and the upper display unit 8a form one image effect. Therefore, when the rear upper movable body 15U1 appears from behind the upper image display device 8, the appearance can be prevented from being overlooked. Further, since the upper image display device 8 is attached so as to incline so that the upper end protrudes forward, the movement along the lower display portion 7a for appearance of the upper movable body 15U1 behind the panel is easy to understand and look good. can do.

  Further, the rear panel movable device 15 includes a rear panel light emitting device 154, and the front panel movable body 141 is provided with a front panel transmission portion 1412. Therefore, as an effect of showing the front movable body 141, an effect of showing the front movable body 141 in a state where the rear light emitting device 154 does not emit light from the rear of the front movable body 141 and the rear of the front movable body 141 from the rear. There is an effect of showing the front panel movable body 141 in a state where the light emitting device 154 emits light, and it is possible to diversify the effect of showing the front panel movable body 141 and to enhance the effect of the effect of showing the front panel movable body 141. it can. The panel rear light emitting device 154 has two types of light emission specifications: a panel rear point light emitting device 1541 capable of performing point light emission as a whole and a panel rear surface light emitting device 1542 capable of performing surface light emission as a whole. Therefore, in order to show the front movable body 141 in a state in which the rear panel light emitting device 154 emits light from the rear of the front movable body 141, the front movable body in a state where point light is emitted from the rear of the front movable body 141. There is an effect of showing 141 and an effect of showing the front movable body 141 in a state where surface light is emitted from the rear of the front movable body 141. The production effect of the production showing the movable body 141 can be enhanced. The rear panel light emitting device 154 is provided inside the rear panel movable body 151, and a rear panel transmission portion 1512 is provided on the front surface of the rear panel movable body 151. Therefore, as an effect of the pachinko gaming machine 1, as an effect of showing the rear panel movable body 151, an effect of showing the rear panel movable body 151 in a state where the rear panel light emitting device 154 does not emit light from the inside of the rear panel movable body 151, and after the board An effect of showing the rear panel movable body 151 in a state where point emission is performed from the inside of the movable body 151 and an effect of displaying the rear panel movable body 151 in a state where surface emission is performed from the inside of the rear panel movable body 151 are also added. As a result, it is possible to diversify the effects of the pachinko gaming machine 1 and prevent the game from becoming monotonous. In addition, the front panel transmission part 1412 is three-dimensionally formed with severe unevenness, while the rear panel transmission part 1512 is formed flat and planar. Therefore, although the light emitting devices 154 that pass through the back panel are used, different light emission modes are formed through the respective light emitting devices 154, so that it is possible to diversify the effects that pass through the light emitting device 154 and increase the effect. Moreover, the design theme represented by the front board transmission part 1412 and the design theme represented by the rear board transmission part 1512 are common (the same) for the main character in a special state, so that the effect of passing through the rear panel light emitting device 154 is produced. Can be prevented from becoming complicated and the production effect is reduced.

  The front panel lower movable body 14D1 including the front panel lower transmission part 14D12 rises along the lower display part 7a and protrudes forward. That is, it moves away from the rear panel light emitting device 15D4 that emits light from the rear. Therefore, in the effect of emitting the back panel light emitting device 15D4 toward the front panel lower movable body 14D1 and illuminating the front panel lower transmission part 14D12, the front panel lower transmission part 14D12 can prevent spotlighting. It is possible to enhance the production effect of the effect of shining the lower transmission part 14D12 cleanly and shining the front lower transmission part 14D12. In addition, it is easy to see through the opening 2A of the game board 2 in which the game area 3 located in front of the player is formed, and in front of the lower display part 7a in which various image effects are performed and attention is easy. Since the lower movable body 14D1 appears, it is possible to effectively enhance the effect of staging the front lower transmission portion 14D12. In addition, the logo movable body 161 of the logo accessory device 16 is disposed between the lower front movable body 14D1 and the game board 2. Therefore, it is possible to execute the effect of operating the logo movable body 161, and it is possible to enhance the effect of the effect of illuminating the front lower transmissive part 14D12 and shining the front lower transmissive part 14D12. Further, the lower front movable body 14D1 is hidden by the logo movable body 161 in the standby state in the standby state. Therefore, the player can be surprised when the lower front movable body 14D1 rises and appears.

  In addition, a movable frame upper body 13U1 and a movable lower frame body 13D1 that are coaxially arranged and reversely rotate with each other are provided, and the upper first display portions 13U11 to upper fourth are clockwise in plan view on the front surface of the movable frame body 13U1. The display unit 13U14 is formed side by side, and the lower first display unit 13D11 to the lower fourth display unit 13D14 are formed side by side in a plan view counterclockwise on the front surface of the lower frame movable body 13D1, and the upper first display unit 13U11. The upper fourth display unit 13U14 and the lower first display unit 13D11 to the lower fourth display unit 13D14 correspond to each other. Therefore, when the upper frame movable body 13U1 and the lower frame movable body 13D1 rotate and stop, a pair of upper first display unit 13U11 and lower first display unit 13D11, upper second display unit 13U12 and lower The second display unit 13D12, the upper third display unit 13U13 and the lower third display unit 13D13, or the upper fourth display unit 13U14 and the lower fourth display unit 13D14 are aligned (lined up and down) to represent different display contents. Any of the entire first display portion 1311 to the entire fourth display portion 1314 is completed. Here, in the process of completing the entire first display portion 1311 to the entire fourth display portion 1314, the upper first display portion 13U11 to the upper fourth display portion 13U14 representing different display contents and the lower first representing the different display contents. Since the display unit 13D11 to the lower fourth display unit 13D14 rotate in the opposite direction, it is possible to make the player feel strongly that the on-frame movable body 13U1 and the below-frame movable body 13D1 are rotating (movable on the frame). The rotational movements of the body 13U1 and the movable body 13D1 under the frame can be emphasized or easily recognized), and the overall first display portion 1311 to the overall fourth display portion 1314 can be strongly embraced. The effect can be enhanced. Further, the upper first display unit 13U11 to the upper fourth display unit 13U14 and the lower first display unit 13D11 to the lower fourth display unit 13D14 have one upper frame movable body 13U1 and one lower frame movable body 13D1 in the respective rotation directions. Each time the display portion (90 degrees) rotates, one entire display portion 1311 to 1314 is completed facing forward (the direction facing the player), and the two entire display portions 1311 to 1314 on both sides thereof are not completed. It is arranged as follows. Therefore, it is possible to add clarity to the effect of completing the entire first display portion 1311 to the entire fourth display portion 1314. Furthermore, since the upper frame movable body 13U1 and the lower frame movable body 13D1 can be continuously rotated in the reverse direction without completing any of the first overall display portion 1311 to the fourth overall display portion 1314, the pachinko gaming machine 1 Diversification of production can be achieved.

  In addition, the SP reach start title notice that suggests the degree of expectation of jackpot with the color of the effect image G12 is executed, and the frame first light emitting device 1331 or the third frame light emitting device 1333 emits light with the same color as the effect image G12. Since the (light emission color effect) is performed, the color (the color of the effect image G12 or the light emission color of the frame first light-emitting device 1331 or the frame third light-emitting device 1333) that suggests the degree of jackpot expectation is impressed, and the degree of jackpot expectation by color The production effect of the production that suggests can be enhanced. Furthermore, the luminescent color effect is a winning / losing branch point immediately before being notified of whether or not the jackpot determination is successful (whether or not the jackpot game can be executed), that is, a winning / losing branch point (sword type) that branches into a jackpot notification effect and a lost notification effect. Button operation promotion effect), the player's expectation of winning the big hit can be sustained moderately and reasonably. This is because even if the light emission color effect continues after the notification of whether or not the jackpot is made, the effect of the light emission color effect is deteriorated. Furthermore, after the light emission color effect is started, the movable frame 131 on which the frame first light emitting device 1331 or the frame third light emitting device 1333 is mounted rotates, and the light emission color effect suggesting the jackpot expectation is generally flashy. As a result, the player's expectation for winning the jackpot can be raised (increased). When the drive light emission effect is executed, the frame movable body 131 is rotated so that the entire third display unit 1313 faces the front, and the frame third light emitting device 1333 emits red light. After that, when SP reach is executed and the white, green, or blue effect image G12 is displayed in the SP reach start title notice, the movable frame 131 rotates and the entire first display unit 1311 is in front. The frame first light emitting device 1331 emits light in white, green or blue. When the red effect image G12 is displayed in the SP reach start title notice, the movable frame 131 does not rotate, the entire third display unit 1313 continues to face the front, and the third frame light emitting device 1333 is displayed. Continues to emit red light. In this way, a combined effect is executed by combining the color of the light emission color effect and the entire display unit facing the front, and the type of the entire display unit that passes the emitted color according to the color of the light emission color effect. Since they are different, it is possible to prevent boredom with respect to the luminescent color effect.

5. Game control by the game control microcomputer 81 [Main control main processing]
Next, game control by the game control microcomputer 81 will be described with reference to FIGS. Note that a counter, timer, flag, status, buffer, and the like that appear in the game control by the game control microcomputer 81 described below are provided in the RAM 84. The initial value of the counter is “0”, the initial value of the flag is “0”, that is, “OFF”, and the initial value of the status is “1”. When the pachinko gaming machine 1 is powered on, the game control microcomputer 81 provided on the main control board 80 reads out and executes the main control main process program shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, in the main control main process, first, a power-on process (S001) is performed. In power-on processing, permission setting for access to the RAM 84, setting of the CPU 82, setting of SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time) and the like are performed.

  Following the power-on process, interrupts are prohibited (S002), and the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S003) is executed. In this normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S003), the counter values of various random numbers shown in FIG. 17A and FIG. When the counter value of each random number reaches the upper limit value, it returns to “0” and is added again. The initial value of each random number counter may be a value other than “0” or may be changed randomly. Further, at least a part of each random number may be a so-called hardware random number generated using a known random number generation circuit including a counter IC or the like.

  When the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S003) is completed, the interruption is permitted (S004). While the interrupt is permitted, the main timer interrupt process (S005) can be executed. The main timer interrupt process (S005) is executed based on an interrupt pulse that is repeatedly input to the CPU 82, for example, at a cycle of 4 msec. That is, the main timer interrupt process (S005) is executed at a cycle of 4 msec. Then, after the main timer interrupt process (S005) is finished and until the main timer interrupt process (S005) is started next, various kinds of normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S003) are performed. The update process of the random number counter value is repeatedly executed. When an interrupt pulse is input to the CPU 82 in the interrupt disabled state, the main timer interrupt process (S005) is not started immediately, but is started after the interrupt is enabled (S004).

[Main timer interrupt processing]
Next, the main timer interrupt process (S005) will be described. As shown in FIG. 37, in the main timer interrupt process (S005), first, an output process (S101) is executed. In the output process (S101), commands set in the output buffer provided in the RAM 84 of the main control board 80 in each process described below are output to the sub control board 90, the payout control board 110, and the like.

  In the input process (S102) performed subsequent to the output process (S101), the game control microcomputer 81 also captures a detection signal from the lower plate full switch for detecting the fullness of the excess recess 612, and outputs the lower plate full data to the RAM 84. Store in buffer.

  The normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S103) performed next is the same as the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S003) performed in the main control main process of FIG. That is, the update processing of the counter values of various random numbers shown in FIGS. 17A and 17B includes the execution period of the main timer interrupt process (S005) and the other period (main timer interrupt process ( After the end of S005) and the period until the next main timer interrupt processing (S005) is started).

  Subsequent to the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S103), the game control microcomputer 81 performs the sensor detection process (S104), subsequently performs the normal operation process (S105), and further performs the special operation process (S106). Do. The sensor detection process, the normal operation process, and the special operation process will be described later.

  Subsequent to the special operation process (S106), a sorter control process for controlling the sorter 36 is performed (S107). The game control microcomputer 81 opens V for 15 seconds when the last round (16 rounds) of the jackpot game is started in the distribution device control process.

  Next, the game control microcomputer 81 executes other processing (S108) and ends the main timer interrupt processing (S005). As other processing (S108), power-off monitoring processing when power is cut off, updating of a timer provided in the RAM 84, and the like are performed. As other processing (S108), payout control processing for paying out a prize ball to the player is performed. In the payout control process, a winning ball counter for the first starting port 20, a winning ball counter for the second starting port 22, a winning ball counter for the first large winning port 30, and a winning ball counter for the second large winning port 32 are shown. Then, it is checked whether or not the prize ball counter for the general winning opening 27 exceeds “0”, and if it exceeds “0”, a prize ball request signal is transmitted to the payout control board 110. Then, when a prize ball signal is transmitted, an update process for subtracting “1” from the prize ball counter related to the signal is performed.

  The game control microcomputer 81 repeatedly executes the processes of steps S002 to S004 of the main control main process until the next interrupt pulse is input to the CPU 82 (see FIG. 36), and when the interrupt pulse is input ( After about 4 msec), the main timer interrupt process (S005) is executed again. In the output process (S101) of the main timer interrupt process (S005) that has been executed again, the game control microcomputer 81 receives the command set in the output buffer of the RAM 84 in the previous main timer interrupt process (S005). Output.

[Sensor detection processing]
Next, the sensor detection process will be described with reference to FIGS. In the sensor detection process (S104), first, it is determined whether or not a game ball has been won in the general winning opening 27, that is, whether or not a game ball has been detected by the general winning slot sensor 27a (S201). If a game ball has not been won in the general winning opening 27 (NO in S201), the process proceeds to step S203. If a game ball has been won in the general winning opening 27 (YES in S201), a predetermined number of game balls are placed in the game. General winning award ball processing for paying out a prize ball is performed (S202). In the general winning opening prize ball processing, the number of winning balls (“3” in the first embodiment) corresponding to the winning in the general winning opening 27 is added to the winning ball counter for the general winning opening 27.

  In step S203, it is determined whether or not the game ball has passed through the gate 28, that is, whether or not the game ball has been detected by the gate sensor 28a. If the game ball has not passed through the gate 28 (NO in S203), the process proceeds to step S206. On the other hand, if the game ball has passed through the gate 28 (YES in S203), it is determined whether or not a general operation status described later is 1, in other words, neither a general display variable display nor an auxiliary game is performed. It is determined whether or not (S204). If the normal figure operation status is not 1 (NO in S204), the process proceeds to step S206. If the normal figure operation status is 1 (YES in S204), the normal symbol random number counter (label-TRND-F) is set. The ordinary symbol random number indicated by the counter value is acquired, the acquired ordinary symbol random number is stored in the ordinary symbol storage unit provided in the RAM 84 (S205), and the process proceeds to step S206.

  In step S206, it is determined whether or not a game ball has won the second start port 22, that is, whether or not a game ball has been detected by the second start port sensor 22a. If no game ball has been won at the second start port 22 (NO at S206), the process proceeds to step S213. If a game ball has been won at the second start port 22 (YES at S206), the game ball is predetermined. Second start opening prize ball processing for paying out the number of prize balls is performed (S207). In the second starting opening prize ball processing, the number of winning balls (“4” in the first embodiment) corresponding to the winning at the second starting opening 22 is added to the winning start counter for the second starting opening 22.

  Next, whether the special figure 2 holding number (specifically, the value of the special figure 2 holding number counter provided in the RAM 84 (special figure 2 holding number counter)) is "4" (upper limit storage number) or more. It is determined whether or not (S208). If the special figure 2 hold number is “4” or more (YES in S208), the process proceeds to step S213, but if the special figure 2 hold number is not “4” or more (less than “4”) ( NO in S208), special figure 2 holding number addition processing is performed (S209). In the special figure 2 hold number addition process, the special figure 2 hold number counter is incremented by “1”, and the special figure 2 hold number indicated by the special figure 2 hold indicator 432 is increased by “1”.

  Subsequently, a special symbol random number counter (label-TRND-T), a jackpot symbol type random number counter (label-TRND-OS), a reach random number counter (label-TRND-RC), and a special symbol variation pattern random number counter (label-TRND-) HP-related special figure 2 related random numbers are acquired and stored in a special figure related random number buffer provided in the RAM 84 (S210).

  Next, a second start winning command specifying process is performed (S211). In the second start winning command specifying process, the second starting winning command is checked by comparing the current gaming state with the special figure 2 related random number obtained in step S210 in the second starting port start winning command specifying table shown in FIG. And the specified second start winning command is set in the output buffer of the RAM 84.

  Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 81 stores the special figure 2 related random number acquired in step S210 in the special figure 2 storage unit 852 (S212).

  Subsequently, in step S213, it is determined whether or not a game ball has won the first start port 20, that is, whether or not a game ball has been detected by the first start port sensor 20a. If the game ball has not won the first starting port 20 (NO in S213), the process proceeds to step S220, and if the game ball has won the first starting port 20 (YES in S213), the game ball is predetermined. First start opening prize ball processing for paying out the number of prize balls is performed (S214). In the first starting opening prize ball processing, the number of winning balls (“4” in the first embodiment) corresponding to the winning at the first starting opening 20 is added to the winning ball counter for the first starting opening 20.

  Next, the special figure 1 holding number (specifically, the value of the special figure 1 holding number (special figure 1 holding number counter) provided in the RAM 84) is equal to or greater than "4" (upper limit storage number). It is determined whether or not (S215). If the special figure 1 hold number is “4” or more (YES in S215), the process proceeds to step S220, but if the special figure 1 hold number is not “4” or more (less than) (NO in S215). ), Special figure 1 holding number addition processing is performed (S216). In the special figure 1 hold number addition process, the special figure 1 hold number counter is incremented by "1", and the special figure 1 hold number indicated by the special figure 1 hold indicator 431 is increased by "1".

  Subsequently, a special symbol random number counter (label-TRND-T), a jackpot symbol type random number counter (label-TRND-OS), a reach random number counter (label-TRND-RC), and a special symbol variation pattern random number counter (label-TRND-) HP-related special figure 1 related random numbers are acquired and stored in a special figure related random number buffer provided in the RAM 84 (S217).

  Next, a first start winning command specifying process is performed (S218). In the first starting winning command specifying process, the first starting winning command is checked by comparing the current gaming state and the special figure 1 related random number acquired in step S217 against the starting winning command specifying table for the first starting port shown in FIG. The command is specified, and the specified first start winning command is set in the output buffer of the RAM 84.

  Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 81 stores the special figure 1 related random number acquired in step S217 in the storage area corresponding to the current special figure 1 hold number in the special figure 1 hold storage unit 851 (S219).

  In step S220, it is determined whether or not a game ball has won the first grand prize opening 30, that is, whether or not a game ball has been detected by the first big prize port sensor 30a. If no game ball has won the first big prize opening 30 (NO in S220), the process proceeds to step S224. If a game ball has won the first big prize opening 30 (YES in S220), it is stored in the RAM 84. It is determined whether or not the counter value of the provided big winning opening winning counter is “9” or more (S221). The big prize winning prize counter is a counter for counting the number of winning prizes in the first big winning prize opening 30 and the second big winning prize opening 32 in one round game of the big hit game. The grand prize winning counter is cleared at the end of each round game. In the first embodiment, the prescribed number of winnings is set to “9”. Therefore, the process of step S221 is performed.

  If the counter value of the big prize winning prize counter is “9” or more (YES in S221), the process proceeds to step S224, and the counter value of the big prize winning prize counter is not “9” or more, that is, less than “9”. (NO in S221), the counter value of the big prize opening prize counter is incremented by “1” (S222), and the first big prize opening prize ball processing for paying out a predetermined number of prize balls to the player is performed (S223). ), Go to step S224. In the first grand prize opening prize ball processing, the number of prize balls according to the prize winning to the first big prize opening 30 is stored in the prize ball counter for the first big prize opening 30 (“14” in the first embodiment). Is added.

  In step S224, the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not a game ball has won the second big prize opening 32, that is, whether or not a game ball has been detected by the second big prize port sensor 32a. If a game ball has not won the second big prize opening 32 (NO in S224), the process proceeds to step S228. If a game ball has won the second big prize opening 32 (YES in S224), the big prize is won. It is determined whether or not the counter value of the winning prize counter is “9” or more (S225).

  If the counter value of the big prize winning prize counter is “9” or more (YES in S225), the process proceeds to step S228, and the counter value of the big winning prize winning counter is not “9” or more, that is, less than “9”. (NO in S225), the counter value of the winning prize winning counter is incremented by “1” (S226), and the second winning prize winning ball processing for paying out a predetermined number of winning balls to the player is performed (S227). ), Go to step S228. In the second grand prize winning ball processing, the number of prize balls according to the winning at the second big winning prize port 32 (“14” in the first embodiment) is added to the prize ball counter for the second big prize winning hole 32. Is added.

  In step S228, the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the game ball has passed through the specific area 34 (entered into the specific area 34), that is, whether or not the game ball has been detected by the specific area sensor 34a. If the game ball has not passed the specific area 34 (NO in S228), the sensor detection process is completed. If the game ball has passed the specific area 34 (YES in S228), whether the V validity period is in effect. It is determined whether or not (S229). The V effective period is a period during which V is opened in the sorting apparatus control process. If it is not during the V effective period (NO in S229), the sensor detection process is completed, and if it is during the V effective period (YES in S229), the V passes according to the passage of the specific region 34 (V passing) during the V effective period. Processing is performed (S230), and the sensor detection process is terminated. In the V passing process, the game control microcomputer 81 turns on a V flag indicating that the game ball has passed through the specific area 34 (entered into the specific area 34) during the V effective period in a predetermined area of the RAM 84, and the V passing command Is set in the output buffer. When the V flag is turned ON, a high probability state is set in the game state setting process at the time of jackpot game end.

[Normal operation processing]
Next, normal operation processing relating to the control of the general map display 42 and the electric chew 23 will be described. As shown in FIG. 41, the processing related to the general-purpose display 42 and the electric Chu 23 is divided into four statuses (stages). “Normal operation status = 1, 2, 3, 4” is assigned to each status. In the normal operation process (S105), the game control microcomputer 81 first confirms the “normal operation status” (S1101). When the “normal operation status” is “1”, the normal symbol standby process (S1102) is performed. When the “normal operation status” is “2”, the normal symbol variation process (S1103) is performed. When the “normal operation status” is “3”, a normal symbol determination process (S1104) is performed, and when the “normal operation status” is “4”, an auxiliary game control process (S1105) is performed. The “normal operation status” is set to “1” by default.

  The normal symbol standby process (S1102) is a process performed during standby when the variable display and the auxiliary game are not performed. In the normal symbol standby process (S1102), a hit determination is performed based on the normal symbol random number stored in the general symbol hold storage unit 86. Further, the base map change pattern is determined based on the current game state, the base map change pattern is determined, and the base map change display of the base map change time corresponding to the determined base map change pattern is displayed. The normal operation status is changed to “2”.

  The normal symbol variation process (S1103) is a process performed when the ordinary symbol is displayed in a variable manner. In the normal symbol fluctuation process (S1103), it is determined whether or not the normal figure fluctuation time has elapsed since the start of the fluctuation display of the currently executed normal figure (whether or not to terminate the normal figure fluctuation display). If it is determined that the diagram change time has elapsed, the normal stop display is performed based on the hit determination result, and the normal operation status is changed to “3”.

  The normal symbol determination process (S1104) is a process performed when the general symbol is stopped and displayed. In the normal symbol determination process (S1104), whether or not a predetermined stop time (for example, 0.8 seconds) has elapsed since the stop display of the currently executed normal diagram has started (whether to stop the stop display of the normal diagram) If it is determined that a predetermined stop time has elapsed, it is determined whether or not the normal symbol displayed in a stopped state is a winning symbol. If it is not a winning symbol (if the stopped symbol is a lost symbol), the normal operation status is changed to “1”. On the other hand, if the winning symbol is stopped, the normal operation status is changed to “4” and the auxiliary game is started based on the current game state and the auxiliary game control table.

  The auxiliary game control process (S1105) is a process performed when an auxiliary game is being performed. In the auxiliary game control process (S1105), the auxiliary game is controlled based on the current game state and the auxiliary game control table. When the auxiliary game ends, the normal operation status is changed to “1”.

[Special action processing]
Next, a special operation process related to the control of the special figure display 41, the special figure hold display 43, and the special winning devices 31, 33 will be described. As shown in FIG. 42, the processing related to the special figure display 41, the special figure hold display 43, and the special winning devices 31, 33 is divided into five statuses (stages). “Special operation status = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5” is assigned to each status. The game control microcomputer 81 first confirms the “special operation status” (S1501). The game control microcomputer 81 performs a special symbol standby process (S1502) when the “special operation status” is “1”, and changes the special symbol when the “special operation status” is “2”. Process (S1503) is performed, and when “Special action status” is “3”, special symbol confirmation process (S1504) is performed, and when “Special action status” is “4”, jackpot game control Processing (S1505) is performed, and when “special operation status” is “5”, gaming state setting processing (S1506) is performed. The “special operation status” is set to “1” by default.

  The special symbol standby process (S1502) is a process that is performed while the special symbol is variably displayed and the jackpot game is not being performed. The special symbol standby process will be described in detail later.

  The special symbol variation process (S1503) is a process performed when the special symbol is variably displayed. The special symbol variation process will be described in detail later.

  The special symbol determination process (S1504) is a process performed when the special symbol is stopped and displayed. The special symbol confirmation process will be described in detail later.

  The jackpot game control process (S1505) is a process performed in the jackpot game. The game control microcomputer 81 performs a jackpot game according to the jackpot game control table shown in FIG. 23 by performing a jackpot game control process. When the jackpot game ends, the special action status is changed to “5”.

  The game state setting process (S1506) is a process for setting the game state according to the jackpot symbol, ON / OFF of the V flag (whether or not V passes during the jackpot game), etc. when the jackpot game ends. If there is V passing during the jackpot game, the high probability state is set by turning on the high probability flag in the high probability flag area of the RAM 84. Further, at this time, the specified number of times (the specified number of high probabilities) that can set (continue) the high probability state without winning a jackpot is set in the high probability remaining number counter provided in the RAM 84. In the first embodiment, the high probability prescribed number is set to 180 times. Further, the time reduction state is set by turning on the time reduction flag in the time reduction flag area of the RAM 84. Further, at this time, the specified number of times (the specified number of time reductions) that can set (continue) the time reduction state without winning a jackpot is set in the time reduction remaining number counter provided in the RAM 84. In the first embodiment, the specified number of time reductions varies depending on whether or not V passes. The specified number of time reductions when there is a V passage during the jackpot game is 180 times, and the specified number of time reductions when there is no V passage during the jackpot game is 100 times. In other words, in the first embodiment, the game is controlled in the time-saving state after the big hit game regardless of whether or not VAT passes, but the specified number of times for the time-short state varies depending on whether or not V passes. The target of the “number of times” of the high probability specified number of times and the short time specified number of times is a special figure variable display. Therefore, for example, the high-probability state is maintained until the special figure variable display is executed 180 times without setting the jackpot winning.

[Special symbol standby processing]
Next, the special symbol standby process will be described with reference to FIG. In the special symbol standby process (S1502), first, it is determined whether or not the special figure 2 holding number is “0” (S1601). If the special figure 2 hold number is “0” (YES in S1601), that is, if there is no special figure 2 related random number obtained due to winning at the second start port 22, the special figure 1 is stored. It is determined whether the number of holds is “0” (S1608). If the special figure 1 hold number is also “0” (YES in S1608), that is, if there is no special figure 1 related random number acquired due to winning at the first starting port 20, the customer It is determined whether the wait flag is ON (S1618). If the customer waiting flag is ON (YES in S1618), the special symbol standby processing is finished. If the customer waiting flag is not ON (NO in S1618), the customer waiting command is set in the output buffer (S1619). Then, the customer waiting flag is turned ON (S1620), and the special symbol waiting process is finished.

  Also, if the special figure 2 hold number is “0” but the special figure 1 hold number is not “0” (YES in S1601 and NO in S1608), that is, there is no hold information of special figure 2, but the first start When there is more than one special figure 1 related random number storage (holding information of special figure 1) acquired due to winning in the mouth 20, special figure 1 determination processing (S1609) and special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination Processing (S1610) is performed.

  In the special figure 1 determination process (S1609), the special symbol random number stored first in the special figure 1 holding storage unit 851 is read out and the jackpot determination table (in accordance with the current gaming state) ( Based on (see FIG. 19 (A)), it is determined whether it is a big hit or a loss (big hit determination). At present, if the normal probability state, the jackpot determination is performed using the normal probability state jackpot determination table, and if the high probability state, the jackpot determination is performed using the high probability state jackpot determination table.

  If the result of the jackpot determination is a jackpot, the jackpot symbol type random number is read out and the jackpot symbol type determination (jacket symbol type determination) is performed based on the first jackpot symbol type determination table (see FIG. 19B). Then, the jackpot symbol data representing the jackpot symbol type is set in the special symbol buffer provided in the RAM 84, and the symbol designation command representing the jackpot symbol type is set in the output buffer provided in the RAM 84. If the result of the jackpot determination is “losing”, the symbol design data indicating the loss is set in the special buffer, and the symbol designating command indicating the loss is set in the output buffer.

  Next, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination process (S1610) will be described with reference to FIG. In the special figure 1 variation pattern determination process, first, it is determined whether or not the current state is the normal gaming state (non-time saving state) (S1651). If it is the normal gaming state (YES in S1651), the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table for the normal gaming state is selected (S1652), and then the process proceeds to step S1654. After selecting the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for the state (S1653), the process proceeds to step S1654.

  In step S1654, the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the jackpot determination result is “jackpot”. If it is a big hit (YES in S1654), the step after selecting the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment table for jackpot from the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment table selected in either step S1652 or step S1653 (step S1659) The process proceeds to S1660, and if it is not a big hit (NO in S1654), reach determination is performed (S1655). In the reach determination, the reach random number is read out, and the reach random number is collated with a reach determination table (see FIG. 19C) corresponding to the current game state (non-short-time state / short-time state), with or without reach. Determine whether.

  Next, it is determined whether or not the reach determination result in step S1655 is “with reach” (S1656). If there is a reach (YES in S1656), the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment table for the loss with reach is selected from the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment table selected in either step S1652 or step S1653 (S1658). Then, the process proceeds to step S1660, and if there is no reach (NO in S1656), the current number of reserved special figure 1 is confirmed, and in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table selected in either step S1652 or step S1653 From FIG. 1, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for reachless losing according to the number of reserved special figure 1 is selected (S1657), and the process proceeds to step S1660.

  In step S1660, the game control microcomputer 81 reads the special figure fluctuation pattern random number, and compares the special figure fluctuation pattern random number with the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table selected in any of steps S1657 to S1659. Special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment which judges special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is performed. Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 81 sets a special figure 1 fluctuation start command indicating the decided special figure 1 fluctuation pattern in the output buffer (S1661), and the special figure fluctuation corresponding to the decided special figure 1 fluctuation pattern. The time is set in the special operation timer (S1662), the special figure 1 variation pattern determination process is terminated, and the process returns to the special symbol standby process. The special operation timer is updated for 4 ms in the other processing (S108) of FIG. The special figure 1 change start command to be set includes information on the special symbol type (that is, special figure 1), information on the result of the jackpot determination performed in the special figure 1 determination process (S1609), and special information. 1 includes information on the result of the special pattern fluctuation pattern determination performed in the fluctuation pattern determination process (S1610) (information including the presence / absence of reach and information on the special figure fluctuation time).

  Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 81 causes the special figure 1 display 411 to start the fluctuation display of the special figure 1 based on the special figure fluctuation time corresponding to the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determined in step S1610 (S1611). .

  Next, the game control microcomputer 81 shifts the storage location (storage area) of various counter values in the special figure 1 hold storage unit 851 to the side read from the current position, and also displays the special figure 1 hold storage unit 851. The special figure 1 hold storage unit shift processing is performed to clear the storage area corresponding to the first hold in (the storage area farthest from the read side) (S1612). In this way, the special figure 1 suspension is digested in the order of suspension.

  Next, the game control microcomputer 81 decrements the special figure 1 hold number counter by “1” (S1613), and changes the special figure 1 hold number indicated by the special figure 1 hold indicator 431 by “1” (change) ( S1614), the special operation status is changed to “2” (S1615).

  Thereafter, the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the customer waiting flag is ON (S1616), and if it is ON (YES in S1616), the customer waiting flag is turned OFF (S1617), and the special symbol standby processing is performed. If it is not ON (NO in S1616), the special symbol standby process is terminated without executing step S1617.

  Also, if the number of reserved special figure 2 is not “0” in step S1601 (NO in S1601), that is, there is one or more special figure 2 related random numbers stored due to winning at the second starting port 22. In this case, special figure 2 determination processing (S1602) and special figure 2 variation pattern determination processing (S1603) are performed. The special figure 2 determination process (S1602) and the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination process (S1603) are basically the same as the special figure 1 determination process (S1609) and the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination process (S1610). .

  The special figure 2 determination process (S1602) is the same process as the special figure 1 determination process (S1609) except that the table used in the big jackpot symbol type determination table is the second jackpot symbol type determination table, and thus description thereof is omitted. . Also, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination process (S1603) is basically the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment process (except for the fact that the table used in the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern judgment is the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern judgment table). Since this is the same processing as S1610), the description is omitted.

  Next, the game control microcomputer 81 causes the special figure 2 display 412 to start the fluctuation display of the special figure 2 based on the special figure fluctuation time corresponding to the special figure fluctuation pattern determined in step S1603 (S1604).

  Next, the game control microcomputer 81 shifts the storage location (storage area) of various counter values in the special figure 2 reservation storage unit 852 by one to the side read from the current position, and the special figure 2 reservation storage unit 852. The special storage area shift processing for clearing the storage area corresponding to the fourth storage area (the storage area farthest from the read side) is performed (S1605). In this way, the special figure 2 suspension is digested in the order of suspension.

  Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 81 decrements the special figure 2 hold number counter by “1” (S1606), and changes the special figure 2 hold number indicated by the special figure 2 hold indicator 432 by “1” (S1607). ), The special operation status is changed to “2” (S1615), and the process proceeds to step S1616.

  As described above, in the first embodiment, the special symbol variation display based on the special figure 1 hold is performed only when the special figure 2 hold is “0” (YES in S1601). That is, the special figure 2 suspension digestion is executed in preference to the special figure 1 suspension digestion. In the first embodiment, the lottery based on the special figure 2 hold is more likely to win the jackpot symbol that is more profitable for the player than the lottery based on the special figure 1 hold (see FIG. 19B). ).

[Special symbol variation processing]
Next, the special symbol variation process will be described with reference to FIG. In the special symbol variation process (S1503), the game control microcomputer 81 first determines whether or not to end the special symbol variation display, that is, the special diagram variation time set in the special operation timer in step S1603 or step S1610 has elapsed. It is determined whether or not (special operation counter = 0) (S1701). When the special symbol fluctuation display is not terminated (NO in S1701), when the special symbol variation processing is terminated and the special symbol variation display is terminated (YES in S1701), the special symbol display on the special symbol display 41 is displayed. And a special symbol stop display according to the symbol data (big hit symbol data or lost symbol data) set in the special symbol buffer in step S1602 or S1609 (S1702).

  Subsequently, a special figure fixed time (for example, 0.8 seconds) set in advance is set in the special operation timer (S1703), and a special figure fluctuation stop command indicating that the special symbol fluctuation display is ended is output to the buffer. (S1704), the special operation status is changed to "3" (S1705), and the special symbol variation process is terminated.

[Special symbol confirmation processing]
Next, the special symbol determination process will be described with reference to FIG. In the special symbol determination process (S1504), the game control microcomputer 81 first determines whether or not to stop the special symbol stop display, that is, the special symbol determination time set in the special operation timer in step S1703 has elapsed (special). It is determined whether or not the operation counter = 0) (S1751). When the special symbol stop display is not terminated (NO in S1751), when the special symbol confirmation process is terminated and the special symbol stop display is terminated (YES in S1751), a high probability state (high probability flag is ON) It is determined whether or not (S1752).

  If the current state is not in a high probability state (NO in S1752), the process proceeds to step S1756. The value of the high probability remaining number counter for measuring the remaining number) is decremented by “1” (S1753), and it is determined whether or not the value of the high probability remaining number counter is “0” (S1754). If the value of the high probability remaining number counter (high probability remaining number) is not “0” (NO in S1754), the process proceeds to step S1756, and the value of the high probability remaining number counter (high probability remaining number) is “0”. If (YES in S1754), the high probability state is shifted to the normal probability state (the high probability flag is turned OFF) (S1755).

  In step S1756, the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the current state is the time-short state (the time-short flag is ON). If it is not in the time-short state (NO in S1756), the process proceeds to step S1760. If it is currently in the time-short state (YES in S1756), the remaining number of special symbol variable display that can be executed in the time-short state (remaining time in short time) The value of the time remaining count counter to be measured is decremented by “1” (S1757), and it is determined whether or not the value of the time remaining count counter is “0” (S1758). If the value of the time remaining count counter (time remaining count) is not "0" (NO in S1758), the process proceeds to step S1760, and if the value of the time remaining count counter (time remaining count) is "0" (S1758 YES), the time-short state is shifted to the non-time-short state (the time-short flag is turned OFF) (S1759).

  Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets a gaming state command indicating the current gaming state in the output buffer (S1760), and determines whether or not the special symbol currently stopped and displayed is a jackpot symbol (S1761). . If it is not a jackpot symbol (NO in S1761), the special action status is changed to “1” (S1765), and the special symbol confirmation process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if it is a jackpot symbol in step S1761 (YES in S1761), the gaming state is reset (the normal gaming state is set. Specifically, the high probability flag and the short time flag are turned off, the high probability remaining number counter and The value of the hourly remaining counter is set to “0”) (S1762). Subsequently, the game control microcomputer 81 performs jackpot game preparation processing (S1763), changes the special operation status to “4” (S1764), and ends the special symbol determination processing. In the jackpot game preparation process, a special game control table (TBL No. 9-1 to 9-3) corresponding to the type of jackpot symbol is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 84, and a jackpot opening flag indicating that the jackpot game is being opened Is turned on in a predetermined area of the RAM 84, and according to the type of the jackpot symbol, a predetermined opening time (time from the start of the jackpot game to the start of one round) is set in the special operation timer, A jackpot opening command corresponding to the type is set in the output buffer of the RAM 84. The jackpot opening command corresponding to the type of jackpot symbol represents that a jackpot game (opening of jackpot game) corresponding to the type of the jackpot symbol that has been stopped is started.

6). Production control by production control microcomputer 91 [Sub-control main processing]
Next, production control by the production control microcomputer 91 will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. Note that a counter, a timer, a flag, a buffer, and the like that appear in the description of the production control by the production control microcomputer 91 below are provided in the RAM 94. When the pachinko gaming machine 1 is powered on, the effect control microcomputer 91 provided on the sub control board 90 reads out the program of the sub control main process shown in FIG. 44 from the ROM 93 and executes it.

  As shown in the figure, in the sub-control main process, first, a power-on process corresponding to power-on is performed (S4001). In the power-on process, for example, settings of the CPU 92, SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time) and the like are performed.

  Next, interrupts are prohibited (S4002), and random number seed update processing is executed (S4003). In the random number seed update process (S4003), the values of various effect determination random number counters for making determinations regarding various effects are updated. The effect determination random numbers include an SP reach pattern determination random number, an L reach pattern determination random number, an extended effect pattern determination random number, an N reach pattern determination random number, a normal variation effect pattern determination random number, and an SP reach start. There are various random numbers for determining effect contents such as a random number for determining a title notice pattern and a random number for determining a driving light emission effect light emission color notice pattern. As an example, the determination random number counter updating method for various effects can be the same as the random number updating process performed by the main control board 80 described above. Random values may not be added one by one at the time of update, but may be added two by two. The same applies to the random number update process performed by the main control board 80 described above.

  When the random number seed update process ends, a command transmission process is executed (S4004). In the command transmission processing, various commands stored in the output buffer in the RAM 94 of the sub-control board 90 (for example, a special drawing change effect start command, a customer waiting start command, an opening effect start command, a round effect start command, which will be described later, And an ending effect start command or the like) are transmitted to the image control board 100. The image control board 100 that has received the command displays an image on the display units 7a and 8a according to the received command (executes various effects based on the image). In addition to the various effects performed by the image control board 100, the sub-control board 90 outputs sound from the speaker 11 via the sound control circuit 106 (executes various effects by sound), and a lamp control circuit. 107, the frame lamp 12, the frame light emitting device 133, and the rear panel light emitting device 154 emit light (perform various effects by light emission), the frame movable body 131, the front panel movable body 141, and the rear panel movable. The body 151 is actuated (various effects by the action are executed). Various effects include special figure variation effects, jackpot game effects (opening effects, round effects, ending effects), customer waiting effects, and the like.

  Next, the production control microcomputer 91 permits interruption (S4005). Thereafter, steps S4002 to S4005 are looped. While interrupts are permitted, reception interrupt processing (S4010), 1 ms timer interrupt processing (S4011), and 10 ms timer interrupt processing (S4012) can be executed.

  The reception interrupt process (S4010) is executed each time an STB signal (strobe signal), that is, various commands sent from the main control board 80 are input to the external INT input unit of the effect control microcomputer 91. In the reception interrupt process (S4010), the effect control microcomputer 91 stores various commands received and received in the output process (S101) of the main control board 80 in the reception buffer of the RAM 94. This reception interrupt process is executed with priority over other interrupt processes (S4011, S4012).

[1ms timer interrupt processing]
Next, the 1 ms timer interrupt process will be described with reference to FIG. The 1 ms timer interrupt process (S4011) is executed each time an interrupt pulse with a 1 msec period is input to the sub-control board 90. In the 1 ms timer interrupt process (S4011), the effect control microcomputer 91 first performs an input process (S4101). In the input process, the effect control microcomputer 91 creates hemispherical button switch data based on the detection signal from the hemispherical button detection switch 63a. In the input process, the effect control microcomputer 91 creates sword-shaped button switch data based on the detection signal from the sword-shaped button detection switch 64a.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs light emission data output processing (S4102). In the light emission data output process, the effect control microcomputer 91 emits light in a 10 ms timer interrupt process, which will be described later, in order to cause the frame lamp 12, the frame light emitting device 133, and the rear panel light emitting device 154 to emit light at a timing suitable for the effect by the image. The light emission data created in the data creation process (S4207) is output to the lamp control circuit 107. That is, the effect control microcomputer 91 causes the frame lamp 12, the frame light emitting device 133, and the rear panel light emitting device 154 to emit light in a predetermined light emission mode according to the light emission data.

  Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs a movable device control process (S4103). In the movable device control process, the effect control microcomputer 91 drives the drive data (the movable frame body 131, the front panel movable body) to drive the movable frame body 131, the front panel movable body 141, and the rear panel movable body 151 at a predetermined timing. Data for driving the body 141 and the movable body 151 after the board) is generated or output. The drive data set in each process in the later-described 10 ms timer interrupt process is also output in this process. That is, the effect control microcomputer 91 drives the frame movable body 131, the front panel movable body 141, and the rear panel movable body 151 in a predetermined operation mode according to the drive data.

  Then, the production control microcomputer 91 performs watchdog timer processing for resetting the watchdog timer (S4104), and ends the 1 ms timer interrupt processing.

[10ms timer interrupt processing]
Next, the 10 ms timer interrupt process will be described with reference to FIG. The 10 ms timer interrupt process (S4012) is executed every time an interrupt pulse with a 10 msec cycle is input to the sub-control board 90. In the 10 ms timer interrupt process, the effect control microcomputer 91 first performs a reception command analysis process for analyzing the command stored in the reception buffer in step S4010 (S4201). The received command analysis process will be described later.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs effect timer update processing for updating a timer for measuring the time related to each effect such as the special figure change effect, the operation promotion effect, and the customer waiting effect (S4202). Furthermore, a customer waiting effect execution process (S4203) for starting the customer waiting effect is performed.

  Next, the production control microcomputer 91 stores the hemispherical button switch data and the sword-shaped button switch data created by the 1 ms timer interrupt processing in the RAM 94 as hemispherical button switch data and sword-shaped button switch data for the 10 ms timer interrupt processing. Button state acquisition processing is performed (S4204). The effect control microcomputer 91 can recognize whether or not the hemispherical button 63 and the sword-shaped button 64 are operated by the button state acquisition process.

  Next, the production control microcomputer 91 performs button operation effective period control processing for setting and canceling the period during which the operation of the hemispherical button 63 or the sword type button 64 is effective, such as the above-described sword-shaped button operation effective period ( S4205). If there is an operation of the hemispherical button 63 or the sword-shaped button 64 during a period when the operation of the hemispherical button 63 or the sword-shaped button 64 is valid, a command indicating that the operation has been performed is this button operation effective period control process. Is set in the output buffer of the RAM 94. The set command is transmitted to the image control board 100 in the transmission process of step S4004. When the image control board 100 receives a command indicating that the hemispherical button 63 or the sword button 64 has been operated, the image control board 100 performs an effect (image display) according to the operation.

  Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs voice control processing (S4206). In the voice control process, as will be described later, creation of voice data (data for controlling the output of voice from the speaker 11) and voice control circuit based on the contents of effects indicated by the special figure fluctuation effect data set in the RAM 94, etc. Output to 106 is performed.

  Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs light emission data creation processing (S4207). In the light emission data creation process, as will be described later, light emission data is created based on the contents of effects indicated by the special figure variation effect data set in the RAM 94.

[Received command analysis processing]
Next, received command analysis processing will be described with reference to FIGS. In the reception command analysis process, the production control microcomputer 91 first receives a start winning command (first start winning command or second start winning command) from the main control board 80, in other words, receives the start winning command. It is determined whether or not the data is stored in the buffer (S4301). If a start winning command has been received (YES in S4301), the process proceeds to step S4302, while if a starting winning command has not been received (NO in S4301), the process proceeds to step S4303.

  In step S4302, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs a start winning process according to the winning of a game ball in the first start port 20 or the second start port 22. In the start winning process, the received start winning command is stored in the start winning command holding storage unit 95 in the RAM 94. Here, the production control microcomputer 91 stores the first start winning command hold storage unit 951 in the start winning command hold storage unit 95 in the case of the first start winning command. On the other hand, the production control microcomputer 91 stores the second start winning command hold storage unit 952 in the start winning command hold storage unit 95 in the case of the second start winning command. The first start winning command hold storage unit 951 and the second start winning command hold storage unit 952 are configured in the same manner as the special figure 1 reservation storage part 851 and the special figure 2 reservation storage part 852 of the RAM 84. Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 analyzes the stored start winning command and performs a lottery to determine whether or not to execute a prefetch effect indicating the expected degree of jackpot. As the pre-reading effect, there are a continuous notice effect and the like related to each other over a continuous variation display of special symbols in addition to the holding effect that displays the number of special figure reservations in a special manner. When it is determined to execute these pre-read effects, a pre-read effect start command for executing the determined effects is set in the output buffer of the RAM 94.

  In step S4303, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether a symbol designation command is received from the main control board 80, in other words, whether the symbol designation command is stored in the reception buffer. If the design control microcomputer 91 does not receive the symbol designation command (NO in S4303), the process proceeds to step S4305. If the symbol designation command is received (YES in S4303), the symbol designation command is stored in the RAM 94. The special figure analysis result storage unit 96 stores the result (S4304). Here, the information (special drawing analysis result) acquired by the effect control microcomputer 91 can be used as appropriate in processes executed thereafter.

  In step S4305, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether a special figure change start command has been received from the main control board 80, in other words, whether the special figure change start command has been stored in the reception buffer. If the special figure change start command has not been received (NO in S4305), the process proceeds to step S4307, while if the special figure change start command has been received (YES in S4305), the production contents of the special figure change effect are determined. Then, a special figure fluctuation effect start process (S4306) for starting the special figure fluctuation effect is performed. The special figure variation effect start process will be described later.

  In step S4307, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether a special figure fluctuation stop command has been received from the main control board 80, in other words, whether the special figure fluctuation stop command has been stored in the reception buffer. If the special control fluctuation stop command is not received (NO in S4307), the process control microcomputer 91 proceeds to step S4309, but if the special control fluctuation stop command is received (YES in S4307), the special figure change A special figure change effect end process (S4308) for ending the effect (stopping the change display of the effect symbol and the small symbol and performing the stop display) is performed.

  In the special figure fluctuation effect end processing, the special figure fluctuation stop command is analyzed, and the special figure fluctuation effect is appropriately terminated based on the analysis result (the fluctuation display of the production symbols EZ1 to EZ3 and the small symbols KZ1 to KZ3 is stopped). A special figure change effect end command for setting the output to the output buffer of the RAM 94 is set. When the image control board 100 receives the special figure variation effect end command, the image control board 100 terminates the special graphic variation effect being executed (stops the changing effect symbols EZ1 to EZ3 and the small symbols KZ1 to KZ3).

  In step S4309, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not the jackpot opening command is received from the main control board 80, in other words, whether or not the jackpot opening command is stored in the reception buffer. If the jackpot opening command is not received (NO in S4309), the performance control microcomputer 91 proceeds to step S4311, while if the jackpot opening command is received (YES in S4309), the jackpot game opening is started. Accompanied jackpot opening effect start processing is performed (S4310). In the jackpot opening effect start processing, the effect control microcomputer 91 analyzes the jackpot opening command and determines whether or not to execute the jackpot opening effect according to the opening of the jackpot game to be executed based on the analysis result. If it is determined and executed, the effect content of the jackpot opening effect (hit opening effect pattern) is selected, and a jackpot opening effect start command for starting the jackpot opening effect with the selected jackpot opening effect pattern is output to the RAM 94 Set to.

  In step S4311, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether a round number designation command is received from the main control board 80, in other words, whether the round number designation command is stored in the reception buffer. If a round number designation command has not been received (NO in S4311), the process proceeds to step S4313. On the other hand, if a round number designation command has been received (YES in S4311), a round effect start process associated with the start of the round game is performed. (S4312). In the round production start process, the production control microcomputer 91 analyzes the round number designation command to determine whether or not to execute the round production according to the round game to be started. The effect content (round effect pattern) is selected, and a round effect start command corresponding to the selected round effect pattern is set in the output buffer of the RAM 94.

  In step S4313, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not the jackpot ending command has been received from the main control board 80, in other words, whether or not the jackpot ending command has been stored in the reception buffer. If the jackpot ending command has not been received (NO in S4313), the process proceeds to step S4316, whereas if the jackpot ending command has been received (YES in S4313), the jackpot ending effect start processing (at the start of the jackpot game ending) ( S4314) and production mode setting processing (S4315) are performed.

  In the jackpot ending effect start process, the effect control microcomputer 91 analyzes the jackpot ending command, determines whether or not to execute the jackpot ending effect according to the ending of the jackpot game to be executed, and executes it. For example, the effect content of the jackpot ending effect (the jackpot ending effect pattern) is selected, and a jackpot ending effect start command corresponding to the selected jackpot ending effect pattern is set in the output buffer of the RAM 94.

  In addition, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs processing (effect mode) for setting the effect mode after the jackpot game based on the analysis result of the jackpot ending command and the presence or absence of V passage during the jackpot game in the effect mode setting process. To perform the process). The presence or absence of V passage can be recognized by ON / OFF of a V passage designation flag described later.

  In step S4316, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not the V passing command is received from the main control board 80, in other words, whether or not the V passing command is stored in the reception buffer. If the V pass command has not been received (NO in S4316), the process proceeds to step S4318. If the V pass command has been received (YES in S4316), the V pass effect start process associated with the V pass is performed (S4317). . In the V passing effect start process, the effect control microcomputer 91 turns on the V passing designation flag indicating that the V has passed in the V passing designation flag area of the RAM 94, and the V passing is in the jackpot game being executed. It is determined whether or not it is the first V pass. If it is the first V pass, a V pass effect start command for notifying the V pass is set in the output buffer of the RAM 94. If it is not the first V pass, the V pass effect start process is ended without setting the V pass effect start command in the output buffer of the RAM 94. That is, the V pass effect is performed only in response to the first V pass in the jackpot game.

  In step S4318, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not a gaming state command has been received from the main control board 80, in other words, whether or not the gaming state command has been stored in the reception buffer. The effect control microcomputer 91 proceeds to step S4320 if no game state command has been received (NO in S4318), while if it has received a game state command (YES in S4318), it analyzes the game state command. Then, the gaming state represented by the gaming state command is specified, and a gaming state setting process for setting the gaming state is performed (S4319). In the gaming state setting process, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets a gaming state flag corresponding to the gaming state indicated by the gaming state command in the gaming state flag area of the RAM 94. For example, if the gaming state indicated by the gaming state command is the normal gaming state, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets the gaming state flag “00H” in the gaming state flag area of the RAM 94. Further, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets the gaming state flag “01H” in the gaming state flag area of the RAM 94 if the gaming state indicated by the gaming state command is the normal probability state and the short time state. Further, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets the gaming state flag “02H” in the gaming state flag area of the RAM 94 if the gaming state indicated by the gaming state command is a high probability state and a short time state.

  In step S4320, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not a customer waiting command has been received from the main control board 80, in other words, whether or not the customer waiting command has been stored in the reception buffer. If the waiting control command is not received (NO in S4320), the effect control microcomputer 91 finishes the received command analysis process. If the waiting command is received (YES in S4320), the waiting effect waiting process is performed. (S4321). In the customer waiting effect waiting process, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines a waiting time (customer waiting effect waiting time: for example, 20 seconds) from when the stop display of the effect symbol or the small symbol is performed until the customer waiting effect is started. Set in the waiting time production timer. Whether or not this waiting time has elapsed is monitored by the customer waiting effect execution process in step S4203. If the effect control microcomputer 91 determines in step S4203 that the waiting time has elapsed in the customer waiting effect execution process, it sets a customer waiting effect start command for starting the customer waiting effect in the output buffer of the RAM 94.

[Special figure variation production start processing]
Next, the special figure variation effect start process will be described with reference to FIGS. The effect control microcomputer 91 first stores the received special figure fluctuation start command in the special figure fluctuation pattern analysis result storage unit 97 in the RAM 94 in the special figure fluctuation production start process (S4401).

  Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 finally combines the combination of effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 (hereinafter referred to as “stop effect symbol”) and the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 (hereinafter, Stop symbol determination processing for determining “stop small symbol” is performed (S4402). In the first embodiment, the stop display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 is always performed when the special symbol stop display is performed, but the stop symbol display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 may not be performed. is there. In the stop symbol determination process, first, based on the contents of the stop special symbol (type of jackpot symbol, loss special symbol) indicated by the symbol designation command already stored in step S4304 and the special symbol variation pattern indicated by the special symbol variation start command, A stop symbol pattern determination table for performing stop symbol determination for determining a stop effect symbol and a small stop symbol is selected. A plurality of stop symbol pattern determination tables are provided in association with the special symbol and the special symbol variation pattern. Therefore, the production control microcomputer 91 selects one stop symbol pattern determination table associated with the stop special symbol type and the special symbol fluctuation pattern. In each stop symbol pattern determination table, a random number value for stop symbol pattern determination (stop symbol pattern determination value) is distributed to a plurality of stop effect symbols and stop symbols so as to have a predetermined distribution ratio (%). ing. Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 acquires the value indicated by the stop symbol pattern determination random number counter as a stop symbol pattern determination random number, and performs stop symbol pattern determination based on the acquired stop symbol pattern determination random number. In the stop symbol pattern determination, the effect control microcomputer 91 compares the acquired stop symbol pattern determination random number with the selected stop symbol pattern table, and determines the stop symbol (stop effect symbol and stop small symbol). Data representing the stopped symbols (stop effect symbols and stop small symbols) is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 94.

  Next, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs special figure variation effect pattern determination processing for determining the effect content (variation effect pattern) of the special figure variation effect (S4403). Here, the special figure variation effect pattern determination process will be described with reference to FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 53, the effect control microcomputer 91 first determines whether or not there is SP reach (SP reach) in the variation effect to be performed based on the result of the special diagram variation pattern analysis in the special diagram variation effect pattern determination process. In other words, it is determined whether or not “SP reach” is included in the effect flow associated with the special figure variation pattern analysis result (S4501). If the SP reach is not included (NO in S4501), the performance control microcomputer 91 proceeds to step S4506, and if the SP reach is included (YES in S4501), the value indicated by the SP reach pattern determination random number counter is displayed. SP reach pattern determination random numbers are acquired (S4502), and SP reach pattern determination is performed to determine an SP reach pattern (SP reach production contents) based on the acquired SP reach pattern determination random numbers (S4503).

  The SP reach pattern determination is performed using an SP reach pattern determination table. As shown in FIG. 54A, a plurality of SP reach pattern determination tables are provided in association with the special figure to be stopped and displayed. Each SP reach pattern determination table includes a plurality of SP reach patterns (contents of SP reach) for determining SP reach patterns so as to have a predetermined distribution ratio (described in FIG. 54A). Random values (random numbers for SP reach pattern determination) are assigned. In the SP reach pattern determination, the effect control microcomputer 91 first selects one SP reach pattern determination table corresponding to the stop special map indicated by the special map analysis result, and acquires the acquired SP reach pattern in the selected table. Random numbers are collated, an SP reach pattern (SP reach effect) is determined and set in a predetermined area of the RAM 94.

  In the first embodiment, since the SP reach is performed, the SP reach start title preview is always performed. Therefore, the effect control microcomputer 91 next uses the value indicated by the random number counter for title preview pattern determination as the title preview pattern. Obtained as a random number for determination (S4504), and based on the acquired random number for determining the title notice pattern, a title for determining the title notice pattern (effect content of the SP reach start title notice: the color of the effect image G12 in the SP reach start title notice) The notice pattern is determined (S4505).

  The title notice pattern determination is performed using the title notice pattern determination table. As shown in FIG. 54 (B), a plurality of title notice pattern determination tables are provided in association with the special figure to be stopped and displayed. In each title notice pattern determination table, a random number value for title notice pattern determination (title notice pattern) is added to a plurality of title notice patterns so as to have a predetermined distribution ratio (described in FIG. 54B). (Random number for determination) is distributed. In the title notice pattern determination, the effect control microcomputer 91 first selects one title notice pattern determination table corresponding to the stop special figure indicated by the special figure analysis result, and the obtained title notice pattern judgment is selected in the selected table. Random numbers are collated to determine a title notice pattern and set in a predetermined area of the RAM 94.

  Subsequently, the production control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not there is L reach in the special figure fluctuation effect to be performed based on the special figure fluctuation pattern analysis result, in other words, the production corresponding to the special figure fluctuation pattern analysis result. It is determined whether or not “L reach” is included in the flow (S4506). If there is no L reach (NO in S4506), the effect control microcomputer 91 proceeds to step S4509.
