Description

  The present invention relates to a spinning machine, other slot machines, arcade game machines, and other gaming machines. In particular, the present invention relates to a gaming machine provided with an advantageous section in which an instruction function for a stop operation can be activated.

  In Patent Literature 1, in the general game during the operation of the accessory continuous actuating device BB related to the first type special feature, the first type one special role that makes the blue 7 symbol single aligned with the right downward line in the display window. If you hit the object RB1, the lottery specification related to replay will be the one specification RT4 and you will not win the second type 1 special role RB2 that doubles the blue 7 symbol on the right down line and middle line in the display window In this case, the lottery specification relating to the replay is set to another specification RT8, and when the operation of the BB is finished in the state of RT4, the replay probability is displayed on the display of the replaying player 3 from RT4 to 1 / 1.2 for 100 games. When the BB operation is finished in the state of RT8, the replay probability is increased to 1 / 1.2 for 1000 games by displaying the replaying role 4 from RT8. Other high probability play There is a description of a gaming machine in which a transition is made to the state RT7 and a difference is made in the number of games in which the replay high probability state is set depending on whether the blue 7 symbols are single-aligned or double-aligned during the operation of the BB (paragraph) 0242, FIG. 24 (a) (b) etc.).

JP 2008-67946 A

  In the above, during the operation of the BB, it is possible to create a game that can be expected to be double-aligned rather than a single blue 7 pattern, but the privilege given to the player after the operation of the BB is 1000 games In the first place, replaying can be done only once again without the introduction of new medals, and no matter how many times replays are drawn, the number of medals will not increase. It is not possible to expect an increase in the number of balls directly and reliably. Therefore, it does not reach to remarkably raise the game interest during BB operation.

  Here, the correct answer about the winning combination that can win a medal with a high payout exceeding the number of throws when the correct answer is made in the order of pressing the stop button depending on whether the blue 7 symbols are single aligned or double aligned during the operation of BB If a specification for adding the number of continuous games of the assist time AT for notifying the pushing order is added, it is considered that the interest in the display appearance during the operation of the BB is further increased. However, if this is done, the operation frequency of the BB directly affects the performance of the instruction function, and the BB needs to have no setting difference that is drawn with a uniform probability regardless of the setting difference. If the winning probability of BB is made variable by setting, the frequency of processing related to the instruction function during BB operation depends on the setting difference of BB. This is because the preferential treatment specifications for playing balls due to the operation of the instruction function will be weighted, which will harm the fairness of the game. Therefore, when processing related to the instruction function is added to the above-described document, BB becomes no setting difference, and there is a lack of sharpness in which there is no difference in the operation of the BB itself and no difference in output due to the instruction function. .

  The object of the present invention is to provide a setting difference substantially for the performance of the instruction function while ensuring the fairness of the game, based on the operation of the continuous action device related to the first type special object having a setting difference. It is possible to provide a gaming machine that can make a game that is being operated in a fun and interesting manner and that can bring out a distinctive ball-out characteristic.

The reference numerals of the drawings are illustrated in parentheses for illustration.
It has a plurality of variable display elements (left reel 1L, middle reel 1C, right reel 1R) for variably displaying symbols of a plurality of frames,
An internal lottery means (K) for extracting a random number value for internal lottery triggered by a variable display start operation when the game medium is inserted, and determining a winning from a plurality of pre-defined baskets based on the extracted random number value; ,
Variable display control means (reel control) for allowing the variable display of the variable display element to be displayed based on the corresponding stop operation, and displaying the combination of symbols corresponding to the combination included in the winning combination determined by the internal drawing means. Means V),
A premise is a gaming machine in which a setting that is a combination of the winning probability of the kite can be changed, and an advantageous section is provided in which an instruction function for a stop operation on the variable display element can be activated.

The “variable display element” includes a reel, a belt, and an image.
“Game media” includes game medals, game balls, and electromagnetic records of storage devices.
“Kuji” is also called the winning area. The bag itself can also be called a conditional device or a conditional device group.
“Settings” means winnings, replays, and bonuses according to a specified number (specified for each type of game as the number of game medals that need to be inserted to obtain a game result once) Or the combination of the probability that each condition apparatus which concerns on the action | operation of an accessory continuous operation apparatus operates (figure machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 2 (3)). In short, it means a combination of the winning probabilities of the defined kites. Depending on the combination of the winning probabilities, it is generally possible to change the setting from 6 which is the lowest payout rate to 6 which is the highest payout rate.

The “instruction function” refers to a function for instructing a stop operation position (pressed position) and a stop order (push order) for a variable display element that is performed for the purpose of assisting acquisition of a game medium.
The main monitor (indicator) managed by the main controller (main board) has a number for identifying an instruction information signal that is a signal related to a condition device operating state that causes a difference in acquisition performance by an instruction function, that is, an instruction information signal, for example. Press the left stop button first, press the middle stop button second, press the right stop button third. If you want to indicate the stop order of “left middle right”, display the number “1” etc. At the same time, the navigation information corresponding to “123” or the like is generally displayed on the liquid crystal display device or the like managed by the peripheral control device (peripheral substrate) in accordance with the arrangement of the stop button. If the first stop instruction to press the first left stop button is instructed, the number “7” or the like is displayed on the main monitor (display), and “1xx” or the like is displayed on the liquid crystal display device or the like. It is also common to display “1--” or the like.

“Advantageous section” refers to a gaming section having a performance related to an instruction function, in which a push position and a stop order are instructed once or more for a winning combination relating to a winning where the maximum number of winnings is obtained. As a general rule, the number of games in the advantageous section exceeds the predetermined upper limit number of games (1500 times), or after the operation of the first kind special feature or the continuous action device that has been activated during the advantageous section. If there is no opportunity to indicate the pressing position and stop order for the winning combination related to the winning combination for obtaining the maximum number of winnings by the end of the arbitrarily determined advantageous section, the instruction may not be given. is there. It is preferable that the transition to the advantageous section is determined in association with the winning of the kite to be drawn with the winning probability regardless of the setting difference. Further, during the advantageous section, “processing related to the instruction function” can be performed.
“Processing related to the instruction function” means direct processing related to the instruction right such as addition and continuation of the instruction function, indirect processing such as a lottery state and transition of the state transition (such as subtraction of the number of games), and advantageous intervals Is the process of ending. The processing related to the instruction function includes things advantageous to the player such as addition of the instruction function and disadvantageous to the player such as the end of the advantageous section.

A non-favorable section that is not an advantageous section is, in principle, a “normal section”.
The “normal section” is a section in which a signal (instruction information signal) relating to a condition device operating state in which a difference in acquisition performance is caused by the instruction function should not be transmitted to the peripheral board, and performance related to the instruction function (however, A game section that does not have any performance related to the instruction function and has no effect on any of the lotteries that move to the advantageous section. As a general rule, when a lottery is drawn in conjunction with a condition device related to a continuous actuating device for an accessory or a first-class special accessory, and an advantageous section transition lottery is won, the inside of the condition device (the rate of play by a predetermined simulation test is Except for the case of 1 or more), the purpose is to exclude the “standby section” in which the start of the advantageous section can be waited until the operation of the accessory continuous action device or the first type special accessory.

In the above,
The continuous action of the first type special feature that will be won with the probability of winning according to the difference in the setting, when the specifications of the game related to replay that can be played without the introduction of new game media are changed Include the case where the specified combination (RB2) by the first-class special combination was hit during the operation of the set differential combination series (RBB1) by the device,
The gaming state (RT3) after the operation of the set differential effective group (RBB1) is finished in a manner in which the specification of the game related to replaying fluctuates due to the winning of the specific combination (RB2) is the specific combination ( Unlike the gaming state (non-RT) after the operation of the set differential effective group (RBB1) is finished in a manner in which the specification of the game related to replay does not fluctuate because there is no winning of RB2), the provision of predetermined conditions (RT4 transition) A specific gaming state (RT4) capable of executing processing (addition processing for assist replay time ART) advantageous to the player related to the instruction function in the advantageous section by displaying REP5 by winning of Lips 1 to 3) It is possible to migrate to.

"First-class special bonus" is an accessory that increases the number of symbol combinations related to winnings per prescribed number, or increases the probability that the "condition device" related to winnings per prescribed number will be activated. This means that the operation can be continued until a game result is obtained that does not exceed 12 times when it is determined in advance (gaming machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 2 (3) G). The first kind special combination is also called a regular bonus, and is written in RB or the like.
“Consecutive equipment continuous operation device” is a device that can continuously operate a first-class special product or a second-class special product, and is activated when a specific symbol combination is displayed. If it is done, it means that the operation is terminated (Attached Table 2 (3) h) of the Game Machine Rules Article 6 Attached Table 2). The accessory continuous actuating device related to the first kind special accessory is also referred to as a kind big bonus or simply a kind big, and is represented by RBB or BB.
“Functions” refers to special equipment that facilitates winning a prize (Article 9 of the Law Enforcement Regulations on Regulations on Customs Sales and Business Optimization).

"Condition device" is a device whose operation is a necessary condition for displaying a combination of symbols related to the operation of "winning", "re-playing", an accessory or an accessory continuous operation device, The one that operates when it wins an internal lottery (a lottery by an electronic computer performed in a gaming machine) (Attachment Rules 2 of Article 6 (3) E). In short, it means a winning flag.
“Winning” is displayed as a combination required in order to acquire a game medal or the like (game medal or game ball (gaming machine rule Article 6 Attached Table 2 (1) C)) for the symbol. That means (Guide Machine Rules Article 6 Attached Table 2 (3) D). A role related to “winning”, that is, a winning role is also called a small role.
“Re-game” refers to a game that can be played without inserting game medals or the like (gaming machine rule Article 6 Appendix 2 (3) b). A role related to “replay” is also referred to as a replay role.
It is also referred to as a non-actual character in the sense that it is not a character including a winning combination and a replay, and a character related to a non-character including a winning character (small role) and a re-playing character.
In addition, the operation of the re-game, the accessory, and the accessory continuous operation device is not a prize (National Institute of Technology, Chofu 155, May 26, 2004). (4) (1) B (C)).

  As mentioned above, when the operation of the set differential actors is completed in a manner that the specification of the spear related to replays does not change without winning a specific role, due to the difference in the operation frequency of the set differential actors depending on the setting difference It is possible to give an appropriate ball difference due to the operation itself of the set difference actors. When the operation of the set differential actors is completed in a manner in which the specifications of the game related to replay fluctuate due to the winning of the specified character, the specified game state can be entered by the predetermined condition, but the predetermined condition is not satisfied Does not shift to the specific gaming state, and in this case, an appropriate play difference can be given by the operation itself of the set difference effective series. Even if the operation of the set differential actors ends, it does not necessarily shift to the specific gaming state, and the operation of the set differential actors will execute processing that is advantageous to the player related to the instruction function in the advantageous section. Not directly connected. By these, the fairness of a game can be secured. Nevertheless, if the operation frequency of the setting difference effective group increases according to the setting, the frequency of shifting to the specific gaming state indirectly increases, so that the setting difference can be substantially given to the performance of the instruction function. In this way, the expectation of hitting a specific actor during the operation of the set differential actors can be raised, and the gaming interests during the operation of the set differential actors can be enhanced, and the distinctive appearance characteristics according to the setting difference Can be launched.

  In the above, the specific game state (RT4) changes the specification of the game related to re-game in other game states (non-RT, RT3, etc.) during a predetermined finite number of games (for example, 30 times). Even if a combination of symbols (BLK1 to 3) as an opportunity is displayed, the specific game state (RT4) is maintained, and after the finite number of games, there is no winning of the specific combination (RB2). It is set as the specification which transfers to the same gaming state as the gaming state (non-RT) after the operation | movement of the said setting difference effective association (RBB1) is complete | finished in the aspect which does not change the specification of a bag.

  Thereby, the specific gaming state can be appropriately and effectively functioned as a specialized zone for executing processing advantageous to the player related to the instruction function, and the gaming interest can be effectively enhanced.

The perspective view of this invention gaming machine. The developed view of the reel which comprises a variable display element. A list of individual condition devices. A list of 籤 (winning areas) sorted by condition device to be won simultaneously. The block diagram of a control apparatus.

  FIG. 1 shows a swivel game machine to which the present invention is applied. The swivel type gaming machine is generally called a pachislot machine. In 1985, after revisions to the gaming machine rules, that is, the National Public Safety Commission Regulation No. 1 on January 30, 2004 (2004), 2 It is a slot machine that conforms to the National Public Safety Commission Regulation No. 4 “Rules for Game Machine Approval and Type Approval” on May 12. The terms and their technical contents are in accordance with the current game machine rules.

  The gaming machine housing 8B includes a honeycomb rear cabinet 8R, a cabinet frame 8W, and door-shaped upper and lower front cabinets 8E and 8F. The upper front cabinet 8E includes an upper liquid crystal display device 71 that displays in full color a navigation video corresponding to a production video, an instruction information signal by an assist time AT in an advantageous section, a dot matrix display device 73 that simulates a search light, a reel panel 8.

Note that left and right mean left and right in the player's line of sight facing the gaming machine.

  The lower front cabinet 8F has a lower liquid crystal display device 72 composed of a movable vision ATV that also serves as an operation unit 8S and a lower liquid crystal button AB for production, and displays a production movie or the like in cooperation with the upper liquid crystal display device 71. Side lamps E12 and E13 on both sides are provided. Reference numerals 91 to 94 denote speakers for outputting BGM and various sound effects, 8M denotes a medal payout port, and 8G denotes a medal tray. Inside the housing 8B is incorporated a woofer 90 that generates vibrations by reproducing heavy bass such as “do, do, do, doo”.

  The transparent display window 80 of the reel panel 8 includes a plurality of spinning cylinders, that is, a left reel 1L, a middle reel 1C, and a right reel 1R, which are variable display elements, on the outer periphery of each reel band 10L, 10C, 10R. Three consecutive frames out of a total of 20 symbols are exposed through the window. Each symbol scrolls from top to bottom during normal forward rotation, including during steady rotation. A plurality of rows and a plurality of symbol display positions displayed through the window of the display window 80, that is, the three rows of the left, middle, and right reels 1L, 1C, and 1R and the upper, middle, and lower three rows respectively. At 3 × 3 = 9 symbol display positions specified by columns and stages, for example, only the middle line (left middle-middle middle-right middle) is the effective line. Note that two or more lines including other lines may be effective lines.

  The operation unit 8S has a medal slot 2i for inserting a game medal as a game medium, a start button bi, up / down / left / right move buttons b1 to 4, and an end button bo, and can select and change the volume, light quantity, BGM, character, and the like. Cross key unit BT for customizing the actual machine, electromagnetic record of the storage device, that is, a bet button 3 for pulling out a prescribed number necessary for one game from credit, for example, 3 betting buttons, a medal tray 8G The adjustment button 4 is provided to correspond to the start lever 5 serving as a start switch for starting variable display (rotation) of each reel 1L, 1C, 1R, and the corresponding reel variable display ( Left stop button 6L, middle stop button 6C, and right stop, which are stop switches that individually stop rotation) Tan 6R, reject button 2R press when clogging medals downstream medal slot 2i, an operation hole 8K of door key.

  Also, a credit display DL1 for displaying the current number of credits, a main monitor MA for displaying the number of payout medals by winning and displaying a number for identifying the instruction information signal when the instruction function by the assist time AT in the advantageous section is activated. The payout indicator DL2 that also serves as an indicator that uses the dot to turn on when there is an advantageous section from the next game that has been determined to be transferred to the advantageous section, and turn off during the normal section from the next game after the advantageous section has ended The Ek, the 1-3 lamps EL1 to 3 that are turned on each time one, 2, or 3 medals are applied, the bet lamp ELb that is turned on when the medals can be accepted, and the start operation by the start lever 5 Start lamp ELs to light up when possible, light up when a combination of symbols related to replay is displayed and replay is activated It includes a game basic lamps 30 including a replay lamp ELr to.

  When the bet lamp ELb is lit, when one medal is inserted from the medal insertion slot 2i with the hanging medal being 0, the one lamp EL1 is lit, and when one is inserted, the two lamp EL2 is lit, and one more is inserted. The three-lamp lamp EL3 is lit and reaches the specified number. When the specified number of multiplying medals is reached, the start lamp ELs is turned on, and the start operation by the start lever 5 becomes possible. When a medal is further inserted into the medal insertion slot 2i without operating the start lever 5 from the state where the prescribed number has been reached, the counter of the credit indicator DL1 is advanced and can be stored up to a predetermined upper limit of 50 sheets. Up to 50 medals paid out by winning are added to the credit, and medals paid out exceeding 50 are received by the medal tray 8G from the medal payout opening 8M.

  As shown in FIG. 2, on the outer peripheral surface of each reel strip 10L, 10C, 10R, all 10 types of red 7, black bar, cherry, watermelon, bell, replay, blank 1, blank 2, blank 3, blank 4 These symbols are drawn by printing or the like in accordance with the symbol numbers 0, 1 to 19 and according to a unique vertical arrangement. The upper and lower ends of each reel band 10L, 10C, 10R are connected to form a ring, and the symbols are scrolled endlessly.

  Each reel 1L, 1C, 1R is a 20-frame reel that arranges 20-frame symbols. For driving each reel 1L, 1C, 1R, a stepping motor SM having a specification in which one step angle for driving 21-frame reel is about 1.43 degrees and rotates once in 504 steps by 1-2 phase excitation is used. In the case of 21-frame reels, an equal number of steps of 504/21 = 24 steps can be assigned per symbol, but in the case of 20-frame reels, 504/20 = 25.2 does not result in an integer solution, so an uneven number of steps is assigned. ing. Symbol number 1,3,6,8,11,13,16 in which the remainder of the integer solution obtained by dividing 26 with the larger number of steps and 24 with the smaller number of steps and dividing symbol numbers 0 to 19 by 5 is odd. Assign the lesser 24 steps to 18 symbols, and assign the more 26 steps to the other symbols 0, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 17, 19 ing.

  The stepping motor SM has a permanent magnet built-in type rotor Rm having a large number of rotor teeth on the outer periphery of the iron core, and a plurality of sets of magnetic poles having a plurality of stator teeth on the inner periphery of the magnetic pole. And a stator Sw wound around a phase (A bar phase (inverted phase of A)) and D phase (B bar phase (inverted phase of B)). 1-phase excitation and 2-phase excitation that turns on one winding and other adjacent windings are turned on by 1-2 phase excitation that repeats alternately every interrupt time, for example, t = 1.49 ms. A half step angle (one step angle by two-step update) is displaced by one step update of the pulse, and one rotation is made by step update of 504. Further, forward rotation and reverse rotation are made possible by changing the step update direction of the excitation pulse.

  At the time of steady rotation, each reel 1L, 1C, 1R makes one rotation at 750.96 ms, which is multiplied by 504 steps and 1 interrupt time 1.49 ms. Approximately 80 rotations per minute. The average time required for the symbol to move one frame is approximately 37.55 ms. According to the gaming machine rules, the first specified time “within 190 ms” from the normal reel stop operation to the stop is the maximum sliding piece in which an integer solution of ((190 ÷ 37.55) −1) = 4 frames is allowed. Number. Therefore, in each reel band 10L, 10C, 10R, when a symbol to be displayed is displaced up and down with a symbol of four frames or less in between, the symbol to be displayed can always be displayed on an effective line, and the display probability is 1 It becomes.

  As the stepping motor SM, a motor having a specification of rotating once by step update of 400 or the like that is a multiple of 20 by 1-2 phase excitation may be used, and one interrupt time may be set to 1.875 ms.

  FIG. 3 shows a combination of symbols on the effective line corresponding to each condition device (winning flag) which is a component of a bag (winning area) drawn by an internal lottery. In the combination, the set differential effective group RBB1 by the continuous action device related to the first type special combination to be won with the winning probability according to the setting difference, and the setting differential effective group RBB1 in operation A first first-type special combination RB1 and a second first-type special combination RB2 that are drawn during a general game (during a game in which the first-type special combination is not activated) are defined. The second type 1 special combination RB2 corresponds to the specific combination referred to in the present invention.

RBB1 winning probability is one hundredth to several thousandth probability, for example,
Setting 1 is 131 / 65536≈1 / 500,
Setting 2 is 138 / 65536≈ 1/475,
Setting 3 is 146 / 65536≈1 / 449,
Setting 4 is 154 / 65536≈ 1/426,
Setting 5 is 164 / 65536≈1 / 400,
Setting 6 is 174 / 65536≈1 / 377.

  If the combination of RBB1 action symbols "Red 7"-"Red 7"-"Red 7" could not be displayed in the game won by RBB1, the game state of "Inside RBB1" where the winning flag of RBB1 was carried over It becomes. If you can display a combination of RBB1 action symbols in RBB1 winning game or inside RBB1, the specification of the replay game is non-variable non-RT (RT is short for replay time, non-RT is not replay time) ) Under the general game during the RBB1 operation ("Non-RT under general" during the RBB1 operation), and during the "non-RT general during the RBB1 operation" If you win the game, you will remain non-RT without changing the specifications of the samurai for replay, but if you win the second type 1 special role RB2, which is a specific role, The specification of the bag related to replay is changed to a replay time called RT3.

  In other words, while RBB1 is in operation, RB1 was won in “Non-RT General”, and “Red 7”-“Red 7”-“Black Bar”, which is the combination of RB1 action symbols, could not be displayed in the winning game In this case, the winning flag of RB1 is carried over to “Non-RT-under-RB inside”, and the display of the combination of the operating symbols of RB1 is awaited. If a combination of RB1 operation symbols can be displayed in "Non-RT under RB in general" or "Non-RT under RB inside", "Non-RT under RB is in operation" and RB1 operates. The operation of RB1 is completed after eight winnings and returns to “Non-RT under general”.

  On the other hand, during RBB1 operation, RB2 was won in “Non-RT General”, and “Red 7”-“Black Bar”-“Black Bar” which was the combination of RB2 operation symbols could not be displayed in the winning game In this case, the winning flag of RB2 is carried over to "inside RB under RT3", and the display of the combination of the operating symbols of RB2 is awaited. If the winning combination of RB2 in “Non-RT under RB” or the combination of RB2 action symbols can be displayed in “RT3 under RB inside”, “RT3 under RB is in operation” and RB2 is activated. The operation of the RB2 is completed by eight winnings, and after completion, “RT3 general under” is a general medium under RT3. If you hit RB1 or RB2 during "General under RT3" and you cannot display the combination of RB1 or RB2 related to winning, the winning flag of RB1 or RB2 related to winning will be carried over to "RB under RT3 Inside. " If the combination of the RB1 or RB2 action symbols related to the win can be displayed in the winning game of RB1 or RB2 in “RT3 general under” or “inside RT3 RB inside”, the RB1 or RB2 related to the win will be activated. RT3 under RB operation ".

  The operation of the RBB1 is ended when the number of medals obtained from the start of operation exceeds a predetermined upper limit, for example, 297, and the operation of the first-type special accessory RB1 or RB2 in operation is also ended. If there is no winning of RB2 during the operation of RBB1, a non-RT gaming state is entered, and if there is at least one winning of RB2 during the operation of RBB1, an RT3 gaming state is entered.

  In the non-combination that is not a combination, a combination (re-playing combination) REP 1 to 7 related to replay and a combination (winning combination (small combination)) NML 1 to 16 related to winning are defined. NML 13-16 pays out nine medals, and the other NML 1-12 pay out one medal. The blanks BLK1 to BLK3 are displayed at the time of overloading when the payout is 0 when any of the left bells 1 to 4, middle bells 1 to 4, and right bells 1 to 4 is selected. There are those that list a plurality of symbols in one column. For example, for REP2, the right symbol to be displayed corresponding to the right reel 1R means red 7 or black bar or watermelon. The double circle in the payout column means the operation of the role, and the same heavy circle means the operation of the replay. The remarks column shows the display of each role.

  FIG. 4 shows a winning area that is defined so as to have a different breakdown of the condition devices to be drawn by the internal lottery, that is, the simultaneous winning (double winning). For example, if the left bell 1 is NML5 + 9 + 14, it means that the bag of the left bell 1 simultaneously hits NML5, NML9, and NML14. In the internal lottery, when the start lever 5 is operated, one random number value from a counter that is updated at high speed within a predetermined range, for example, a 2-byte numerical range of 0 to 65535 (a total of 65536 numerical values) on the RWM of the main controller MC. Depending on which area the extracted random number value belongs to in the random number range 0 to 65535 divided by the numerical value range of the winning value corresponding to 籤, the 籤 related to winning, and therefore the conditions included in that 籤Determine the winning or winning flag of the device.

The specifications of the kite vary depending on the gaming state. There are the following 12 game states, and the game state transitions as shown in the game state transition diagram in the remarks column.
[1] The game state after the operation of RBB1 is completed in a manner in which the specification of the game related to replay does not fluctuate during the operation of RBB1 which is a set difference actor and there is no winning of RB2 which is a specific role, and the replay probability is For example, in a low-probability gaming state in which the combined number of winning values is 8978 and is relatively low as 8978 / 65536≈1 / 7.3, the non-RT in which the specifications of the game related to re-game are not changed.
[2] Transition from non-RT to any one of blanks BLK1 to 3 and the specifications of the game related to replay are different from non-RT, but the total number of winnings is the same as 8978, and the replay probability is about 1 First replay time RT1 in a low-probability gaming state that is relatively low at /7.3.
[3] Replay probabilities that are promoted by the display of REP3 or REP4 from RT1 and fall to RT1 by the display of any one of blanks BLK1 to 3, for example, 40000 / 65536≈1 / 1.1 when the total number of winning values is 40000. The second replay time RT2 in a highly probable gaming state that is relatively high with 64.

[4] A game state after the operation of RBB1 is finished in a manner in which the specifications of the game related to replay fluctuate by hitting RB2 which is a specific role during the operation of RBB1 which is a set difference role Although the specifications of the kite are different from non-RT and RT1, the third replay time RT3 in the low-probability gaming state in which the total number of winning values is the same as 8978 and the re-playing probability is also relatively low at about 1 / 7.3. Transition from RT3 to RT1 by displaying any one of blanks BLK1 to BLK3.
[5] The game is promoted by displaying REP5 from RT3, and during a predetermined finite number of games, for example, 30 games, the non-RT, RT2, and RT3, which are other gaming states, will change the specifications of the game related to regame. Even if one of the blanks BLK1 to 3 which is a combination of symbols is displayed, the game state is maintained, and after a finite number of games such as 30 times, there is no winning of the specified character RB2, and the specification of the game related to replaying A fourth replay time RT4 for shifting to the same gaming state as that after the operation of the set differential effective group RBB1 is finished in a non-changing manner, that is, non-RT.
The above gaming states [1] to [5] are in a general game.

[6] Regardless of whether the winning gaming state is non-RT, RT1, RT2, RT3, or RT4, the winning number of replays is increased to 8979, which is 1 more than the low probability gaming state. Inside the RBB1 in the almost low-probability gaming state in which the probability is relatively low as about 1 / 7.3.

[7] “Non-RT in general” during RBB1 operation.
[8] “Non-RT inside RB inside” during RBB1 operation.
[9] “Non-RT RB in operation” during RBB1 operation.
[10] “General under RT3” during RBB1 operation.
[11] “Inside RB under RT3” during RBB1 operation.

Note that the low-probability gaming state and / or the high-probability gaming state only needs to have at least one state, and there may be more states in which the breakdown and the number of winning values for re-games are different.

  In addition, the favorable section where the instruction function for the stop operation can be operated is a predetermined condition associated with the winning of the set no difference, which is drawn with a uniform winning probability regardless of the setting difference from the normal section of the non-favoring section. Transition below, a chance zone CZ to be continued for a predetermined number of guaranteed games, for example 5 games (5G and G are games), and transition from a normal section or a chance zone CZ under specific conditions linked to a bag with no setting difference, There is provided an assist replay time ART that is more advantageous to the player as an assist time AT for operating the instruction function for a predetermined number of continuous games, for example, one set of 50 games or more in RT2, which is a highly probable gaming state.

  The chance zone CZ has a higher probability of going to ART than in the normal section, and it cannot win the transition to ART during the guaranteed 5 games, and the maximum number of medals that can be earned during that 5 games is 9 If the instruction function has been activated at least once by winning any of the choices that can win, the game ends when 5 games are exceeded and returns to the normal section. If it is not possible to win the transition to ART during 5 games, and there is no winning of any elected role, it waits for an advantageous section after 5 games and activates the instruction function when the elected role is won After that, return to the normal section. If you hit RBB1 during chance zone CZ, if you hit RBB1 during ART or during an advantageous section where the transition to ART has been decided, maintain the advantageous section and continue games in chance zone CZ or ART Is stopped, and after the operation of RBB1 is completed, it is possible to return to the chance zone CZ or ART.

  The wrong number with the number 0 is drawn in the gaming state except for “non-RT under RB operation” and “RT3 under RB operation” during RBB1 operation. During a general game, there is a setting difference in which the winning probability (number of winning values) is different depending on the setting 1-6.当 Winning an unjustified number 0, that is, drawing an unjustified means that there was no winning condition device in the game, and in principle, any combination of symbols corresponding to the role is displayed. If you don't do it, you can display the combination of the RBB1's operating patterns related to carry-over, and display “Unable to RB inside non-RT under RB” or “Inside RB inside RT3” during RBB1 operation. When pulled, the combination of the operating symbols of RB1 or RB2 related to carryover can be displayed.

  The normal lip number 1 (REP1's single winning) is drawn in all gaming states, and there is no setting difference, but the winning probability differs depending on the gaming state. If you hit a normal lip, the next game will be a replay.

  The RT2 transition lips 1 to 6 with the numbers 2 to 7 are drawn using only RT1. The combined winning probability of the RT2 transition lip 1 to 6 is, for example, 5460 / 65536≈1 / 12, and there is no setting difference, and the probability 910 / 65536≈1 / 72 is equally distributed among the six types of transition lip 1 to 6 Let me win. REP3 or REP4 is displayed at the correct answer in the pressing order by 6 choices and can be promoted to RT2. Regardless of the display result, the next game is a re-game.

In the advantageous section where the transition to the assist replay time ART has been decided, when the RT2 transition lip 1-6 is hit at RT1, the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is made to correspond to the arrangement of the stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R,
If the correct answer push order is “left middle right” transition Lip 1, the navigation with “123” in the blue circle,
If the correct answer order is “Right / Left / Middle” Transition Lip 2, the navigation with “132” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is “middle left and right” transition Lip 3, the navigation with “213” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is “middle right left” transition lip 4, the navigation with “312” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is “Right / Left / Middle” Transition Lip 5, the navigation with “231” in the blue circle
If the correct answer push order is “Right-Middle-Left” transition Lip 6, the navigation marked with “321” is displayed in the blue circle, and REP3 or REP4 is displayed by the operation of the indication function by displaying the promoted navigation, and RT2 Easily promote to. The blue circle corresponds to blue, which is a general color of the replay symbol. This promotion navigator is not the navigator for the winning combination related to the winning in which the maximum number of acquisitions is obtained, but is issued only when the transition to ART has been decided.

  After the promotion to RT2, the subtraction of the number of continuing games of the assist replay time ART is started, and when the number of continuing games becomes 0, the assist time AT is ended. With the end of AT, the operation of the instruction function disappears, and it falls to RT1 when any one of blanks BLK1 to 3 is displayed, and at the time of falling to RT1, the advantageous section is terminated and shifted to the normal section. The advantageous period ends even when the continuous stay period exceeds the predetermined upper limit number of games of 1500, and when it exceeds 1500, even if the number of remaining continuous games of ART is 1 or more, the advantageous period ends and the normal period ends. Transition to the section. Even when the operation is terminated due to exceeding 1500 times, the operation of the instruction function is lost, and the display falls to RT1 by displaying any one of the blanks BLK1 to 3. When the advantageous section is terminated and shifted to the normal section, all variables affecting the performance related to the instruction function, that is, all the stored information of the RWM of the main controller MC regarding the advantageous section including the occurrence and disappearance of the advantageous section are initialized. Turn into.

  The RT4 transition lips 1 to 3 with the numbers 8 to 10 are drawn only with RT3. The combined winning probability of the RT4 transition lip 1 to 3 is, for example, 5460 / 65536≈1 / 12, there is no setting difference, and the probability of equally distributing the three types of transition lip 1-3 is 1820 / 65536≈1 / 36. Let me win. REP5 is displayed at the correct push order by 3 choices and can be promoted to RT4. Regardless of the display result, the next game is a re-game.

When hitting RT4 transition lip 1-3 at RT3, the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is made to correspond to the arrangement of stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R,
If the correct answer is the first left stop transition Lip 1, the navigation with “1xx” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is the middle first stop transition lip 2, the navigation with “× 1 ×” in the blue circle
If the correct answer is in the right first stop transition Lip 3, the navigation with “XX1” in the blue circle
Each is displayed, and REP5 is displayed by the operation of the instruction function by the display of these promotion navigations, and is easily promoted to RT3. Since this promotion navigation is not a navigation for a winning combination related to a winning that can obtain the maximum number of winnings, it is issued regardless of whether it is a normal section or an advantageous section.

  The freezing lip number 11 is drawn with the same winning probability without any setting difference during general games. The winning probability is as extremely low as a few thousandth to 1/17500, for example, 4/65536 = 1/16384. If it can win the freeze-lip, the internal lottery (for example, using a 1-byte counter (0 to 255) that is updated at high speed on the RWM of the main controller MC independently of the random number for internal lottery following the internal lottery ( If the player is in the normal zone or the chance zone CZ with a predetermined probability, for example, 256/256 (100%), a preferential predetermined number of initial continuous games, for example, 300G (G; game), that is, one set is obtained. For 50G, the shift to the assist replay time ART for 6 sets is confirmed, and during ART, the addition of the number of sets for 6 sets (300G) is confirmed.

  In addition, when the freeze is hit, a predetermined surprise effect such as blacking out the display on the upper liquid crystal display device 71 and a predetermined rotation such as reverse rotation of each reel 1L, 1C, 1R under a so-called freeze that temporarily stops the progress of the game. Accompanied by the rotator effect that makes the operation of Of course, the next game will be a re-game.

  Chance lip No. 12 is drawn with the same winning probability without setting difference only in RT4. The winning probability is, for example, 8192/65536 = 1/8. If you can win a chance lip, the internal distribution lottery (two-step lottery) following the internal lottery will give you a set probability if you are in an advantageous section with a predetermined probability, for example, 256/256 (100%). (50G) Then, the additional number of assist replay times ART is confirmed.

  The RBB small and medium-sized role ALL (NML 1-16, which is a duplicate of NML1) with the number 13 is drawn only when the RBB1 is in operation, “non-RT under RB operation” or “RT3 under RB operation”. The RBB small / medium role ALL is won over a wide range excluding the replay winning value of 8978, and any one of the NMLs 13 to 16 having a large payout is won and nine medals are paid out.

  The common bell of number 14 (NML13 and 14 overlapping wins) is the same win probability with no setting difference in the gaming state except “non-RT under RB operation” or “RT3 under RB operation” during RBB1 operation. I will draw in. The winning probability is one-hundredth to one-hundredth, such as 256/65536 = 1/256, and the NML 13 in which the bells are arranged in the middle stage is preferentially awarded and 9 medals are paid out. The NML 14 functions as a control changer that is not necessarily intended for display. Except for the inside of RBB1, except for the internal lottery (two-stage lottery) following the internal lottery, if it is in the normal section, a predetermined probability such as 64/256 (25%), one set (50G) Therefore, it is possible to shift to the assist replay time ART.

  ス イ No. 15 watermelon (NML15 single winning) draws at the same winning probability with no setting difference in the gaming state except “non-RT under RB operation” or “RT3 under RB operation” during RBB1 operation . The winning probability is one-tenth to one-hundredth of winning probability, for example, 1024/65536 = 1/64, and nine medals are paid out. Except for the inside of the RBB1, the internal distribution lottery (two-step lottery) following the internal lottery makes the transition to the chance zone CZ with a predetermined probability, for example, 64/256 (25%) when in the normal section.

  チ ェ リ ー No. 16 cherry (NML16 single winning) draws at the same winning probability with no setting difference in the gaming state except “non-RT under RB operation” or “RT3 under RB operation” during RBB1 operation . The winning probability is one-tenth to one-hundredth, for example, 512/65536 = 1/128, and nine medals are paid out. Except for the inside of the RBB1, the internal distribution lottery (two-step lottery) subsequent to the internal lottery makes a transition to the chance zone CZ with a predetermined probability, for example, 128/256 (50%) when in the normal section.

  Except for the inside of RBB1, any one of the common bell of 籤 number 14, the watermelon of 籤 number 15, and the cherry of 籤 number 16 in the advantageous zone by CZ triggered by the winning of watermelon of 籤 number 15 or cherry of 籤 number 16 If you can win, you can hit a certain high probability, for example, 256/256 (100%) or any one of the numbers 17-28 by the internal distribution drawing (two-step drawing) Then, instead of the probability of the internal distribution lottery (two-step lottery) in the normal section, for example, 25/256 (about 10%) is transferred to ART for one set (50G). Furthermore, if the watermelon of No. 15 can be hit during the advantageous section in which the transition to ART is determined during the ART or the transition to ART except for the inside of the RBB1, a predetermined probability, for example, 64 / If it is possible to hit the cherry of the number 16 with a probability of 256 (25%), a predetermined probability of 128/256 (50%), for example, 10G, is obtained with the internal distribution drawing (two-stage drawing). Add the number of games.

  The left bells 1 to 4 of the numbers 17 to 20 are the first stop to the left where the correct push order in which nine medals can be obtained by winning the NML 14 with the bells lined down to the right is to press the left stop button 6L first. The middle bells 1 to 4 of the 籤 numbers 21 to 24 are the first stop when the middle stop button 6C is pushed first, and the correct answer push order in which 9 medals can be obtained by winning the NML 13 where the bells are arranged in the middle row, The right bells 1 to 4 of numbers 25 to 28 are the first right stop where the right stop button 6R is pressed first in the correct pressing order in which nine medals can be won by winning the NML 13 in which the bells are arranged in the middle row. In the case of incorrect answer in the pressing order, either one of the single roles NML1 to NLM1 to be won in each winning area is won with a display probability of 1/4, or one of blanks BLK1 to 3 is displayed with a display probability of 3/4. .

択 Numbers 17-28 are drawn with no setting difference in the game state except “non-RT under RB operation” or “RT3 under RB operation” during RBB1, and each of the four types of left bells, The winning probability is equally distributed for the middle bell and the right bell, for example, 1960/65536 for each saddle, and the total 23520/65536. There is no setting difference and there is no game state transition, but it does not function as a transition lottery from the normal section to the advantageous section. During the chance zone CZ or during the assist replay time ART or during the advantageous section where the transition is determined, the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is made to correspond to the arrangement of the stop buttons 6L, 6C, 6R,
If the correct answer is the left bell at the first stop on the left, the navigation with “1xx” in the yellow circle
If the correct push order is the middle bell at the first stop, the navigation with “× 1 ×” in the yellow circle
If the right answer is the right bell with the right first stop, the navigation indicated with “xx1” is displayed in the yellow circle, and nine pieces can be easily paid out by displaying the bell navigation. The yellow circle corresponds to yellow, which is a common color for bell designs. Even in the advantageous zone, such a bell navigation is not output in RT3, and the specification is such that it is easy to shift to RT1 by displaying any one of the blanks BLK1 to 3.

  RBB1 of number 29 (RBB1's single winning) is drawn with a setting difference as described above in non-RT, RT1, RT2, RT3, and RT4 which are in general games. In the case where an unfairness is drawn inside the RBB 1, the navigation system is designed so that a navigation of “Aim at Red 7!” Is displayed on the upper liquid crystal display device 71.

  The RB1 with the number 30 is made to hit with no setting difference, for example, 26200 / 65536≈1 / 2.5 only in “non-RT general” or “RT3 general” during the RBB1 operation. During RBB1 operation, in RB inside non-RT under RB or inside RB under RT3, the winning area of RB1 and RB2 is shifted to illegitimate, and the RB in the RB where the RB1 winning flag is carried forward When pulled, the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is designed to provide a navigation “Aim at Red 7-Red 7-Black Bar!”.

  No. 31 RB2 of No. 31 is hit with no setting difference, for example, 5000 / 65536≈1 / 13 only in “non-RT general” or “RT3 general” during RBB1 operation. During RBB1 operation, during RB inside non-RT or inside RB under RT3, the winning area of RB1 and RB2 is shifted to illegitimate, and the RB in the RB where the RB2 winning flag is carried forward When pulled, the upper liquid crystal display device 71 is designed to provide a navigation “Red 7—Black bar—Aim for the black bar!”.

  In the above specifications, the winning combinations with winning numbers 14 to 28 have the same winning probability. This is because the probability variation of the winning combination is prohibited except when the combination is in operation (the gaming machine rule Article 6 Appendix Table 5 (1) B).

  As described above, the opportunity to change the specifications of the game related to replay includes the case where the specified combination RB2 is hit during the operation of the set differential combination series RBB1, and the RBB1 after hitting the specified combination RB2 at least once RT3 after the completion of the operation of RB5 is different from non-RT after the completion of the operation of RBB1 after there has been no RB2 winning, and REP5 is displayed by the winning of RT4 transition Lip 1-3 To RT4. In RT3, since the bell navigation is not issued when the winning combination is won, the game is aimed at displaying REP5 before displaying the blanks BLK1 to BLK1.

  If you can move to RT4, if you are in an advantageous section for 30 games (waiting for the end of the chance zone CZ or the advantageous section, or hitting RBB1 during the advantageous section where the transition to ART or ART has been decided, After the operation of RBB1 is over, if it is an advantageous section even after moving to RT4 after passing through RT3, we expect to win a chance lip (REP7). By hitting the chance zone CZ or by hitting the ART by hitting the common bell or freeze lip, the winning zone is shifted to an advantageous section, and then the chance lip (REP7) or the like is expected. At RT4 in the normal section, if you hit the chance zone CZ and you can hit the chance lip (REP7) during CZ, as with the common bell, watermelon, cherry, ART for one set (50G) The transition is determined. Therefore, ART can be determined with a high probability by winning an advantageous section (chance zone CZ) at RT4. Further, in the chance zone CZ at RT4, the probability of the internal distribution lottery (two-stage lottery) may be increased to 256/256 (100%) when any one of the numbers 17 to 28 is selected. . If the chance lip (REP7) can be hit multiple times during the RT4 30 games, provided that it is in the advantageous section, the ART can be transferred or added for multiple sets. Therefore, if the player hits RBB1 during the advantageous section and can move to RT4 while maintaining the advantageous section, a large number of ART sets can be obtained. Even if blanks BLK1 to 3 are displayed during 30 games of RT4, there is no transition to RT1. In this way, RT4 can effectively function as a high-probability zone for ART or as a specialization zone by adding the number of sets in which one or more sets of ART can be added. In addition, it is possible to create a game that makes it possible to expect to hit RBB1 during ART and hit RB2 during RBB1 operation more than before.

  When the operation of the set difference effective combination RBB1 is finished without being in RT, an appropriate difference in the ball due to the operation of the set difference effective combination RBB1 itself can be given due to the difference in the operation frequency of the setting difference effective combination RBB1. When the operation of the setting difference effective combination RBB1 is finished at RT3, even when there is no transition from RT3 to RT4, an appropriate difference in the ball due to the operation of the setting difference effective combination RBB1 itself can be given. Even if the operation of RBB1 ends, the process does not necessarily shift to RT4, and the operation of RBB1 is not directly linked to the addition of the number of ART sets. However, when the operation frequency of RBB1 increases according to the setting, the frequency of shifting to RT4 indirectly increases, and the degree of expectation for adding the number of ART sets increases. Therefore, a setting difference can be given to the performance of the instruction function substantially. In addition, since RT4, which is a specific gaming state, shifts to non-RT after a finite number of 30 games have elapsed, it is possible to comply with the provisions of gaming machine rules Article 6 (5) (1) c (d) and e.
