(Description of the relationship between the number of advantageous games and the number of displayed games using FIG. 38)
The relationship between the "number of advantageous games" and the "number of displayed games" will be described with reference to FIG.
Here, "the number of advantageous games" is the "number of games" determined by the display game number lottery means 900 on the side of the main control means 200 shown in FIG. 2, and corresponds to the gaming section of ART which is an example of advantageous games. .
On the other hand, the "display game number" is the "game number" on the display determined by the display game number lottery means 900 on the side of the sub control means 300 shown in FIG. 2, and within the "advantage game number" It is determined.

As shown in FIG. 38, the “displayed game number” is often determined to a value lower than the “advantage game number”. For example, assuming that it is determined that "the number of displayed games" (initial value) is "300" G while "the number of advantageous games" (initial value) is "500" G, "the number of displayed games" is "the advantageous games""200" G is a lower value than "number", and "the number of displayed games" becomes "0" G first.
Within the range of the number of differences between the “number of advantageous games” and the “number of displayed games” determined by the number-of-displayed-games lottery means 900 by the additional display-numbers lottery means 930 during the progress of ART which is an example of advantageous games Within the range of 200 "G, the" number of added games "of the displayed number of games is determined.

  For example, if the “number of games played on top” on the first display is “50” G, the difference number is “150” G (200−50 = 150). If the second "number of added games" is "100" G, the difference number is "50" G (150-100 = 50). If the third "number of top games played" is "50" G, the difference is "0" G (50-50 = 0), and the "number of displayed games" matches the "number of advantageous games" Do. Therefore, ART, which is an example of the advantageous game, becomes “final game” when “the number of display games” becomes “0” G, and the ART is also ended when the “final game” is ended.

(Description of the relationship between the number of displayed games and the object 1000 using FIG. 39)
The correspondence between the "display game number" and the "object 1000" will be described using FIG.
The “number of displayed games” includes (1) “the number of displayed games” determined by the number-of-display-games lottery means 900, and (2) the number of remaining games reduced by the displayed-games subtraction means 920, (3) There are three types of "remaining number of games" after addition of the "number of additional games" determined by the display number lottery means 930.
The three types of "display game numbers" are divided into three by the display game number dividing means 912, and the three "decimal numbers" after division are converted into "hexadecimal numbers" by the hexadecimal number conversion means 915, and three pieces are displayed.

Here, the "determined number of games" is the "remaining number of games" after the subtraction in step S30. Although not shown, when "the number of remaining games = 0", after the game ends, "ART" which is "advantage game" is ended, and as shown in FIG. 3, it returns to "normal game".

After the "additional lottery process", the process proceeds from step S32 to the next step S33. In step S33, "determination of addition" is determined. That is, the determination is performed by the advantageous game control means 260 shown in FIG.
As a result of the determination, in the case of "addition determination", that is, the "addition lottery process" in step S32 is won and the "number of additional games" is determined, the process proceeds from step S33 to the next step S34. In step S34, the "remaining game number addition process" is executed. That is, the "number of additional games" determined in step S33 is added to the "number of remaining games" after the subtraction in step S30. The addition process is executed by the advantageous game control means 260 shown in FIG.
After the addition process, the process proceeds to step S23 described above, and the "determined number of games" is transmitted to the sub. That is, the "determined number of games" is the "remaining number of games" after addition in step S34.

On the other hand, if the "add-on lottery process" in step S32 is "loss" in step S23 described above, the process branches to step S23 described above, and "determined number of games" is sub Will be sent. Here, the "determined number of games" is the "remaining number of games" after the subtraction in step S30.
(Description of processing during sub-side ART using FIGS. 55 and 56)
The processing in the sub-side ART will be described with reference to FIGS. 55 and 56.
Here, the "sub side" means the side of the sub control means 300 shown in FIG.
Here, "ART" is one of "advantage game" shown in FIG. 3, and is controlled by the advantageous game effect control means 330 shown in FIG.

First, the process proceeds to step S40, and "first hit" is determined. "First hit start" means the first presentation of "ART". The determination is executed by the advantageous game effect control means 330 on the sub control means 300 side.
As a result of the determination, in the case of “first hit”, the process proceeds from step S40 to the next step S41.
