In addition, the number of winning balls by winning in each winning opening can be set as appropriate.

  An indicator 8 is arranged on the lower left side of the gaming area 6 formed on the front surface of the gaming board 1 (a part other than the gaming area 6). As shown in FIG. 4, on the display devices 8, a special figure 1 display 81a for variably displaying the special figure 1, a special figure 2 display 81b for variably displaying the special figure 2, and a universal figure are variably displayed. A universal display 82 is included. Further, the display unit 8 displays a special figure 1 hold display 83a for displaying a special figure 1 hold number, which will be described later (U1: the number in which the variable display of the special figure 1 by the special figure 1 display 81a is held), Also included is a special figure 2 hold display 83b for displaying a special figure 2 hold number (U2: the number of the variable display of the special figure 2 by the special figure 2 display 81b being held) which will be described later.

  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 start port 11. 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 at the second start port 12. 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. The special figure display 81a and the special figure 2 display 81b are collectively referred to as a special figure display 81. Further, the special figure 1 hold indicator 83a and the special figure 2 hold indicator 83b are collectively referred to as a special figure hold indicator 83.

  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 predetermined special figure (a special figure of a specific stop mode, that is, a jackpot symbol), the big prize opening (the first big prize opening 14 and the second big prize opening 15) is opened. A jackpot game (an example of a special game) is played.

  The special figure display 81 is composed of, for example, eight LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) arranged side by side, and displays a special figure corresponding to the result of the special figure lottery according to the lighting mode. For example, when the result of the special drawing lottery is a jackpot (one of a plurality of types of jackpots to be described later), the special chart indicator 81 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 lost, a special symbol display 81 “■■■■■■■ □” is displayed, indicating a losing 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.

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

  By the way, in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, when there is a winning game ball (entering a ball) at the first starting port 11 or the second starting port 12, various random numbers (numerical information and determination information) for performing special drawing lottery, etc. An example) may be obtained. These various random numbers are temporarily stored in a special figure hold storage unit 105 described later as a special figure hold. In the following description, various random numbers acquired by winning a game ball at the first starting port 11 (referred to as a winning ball) are referred to as “special figure 1 related random numbers” and winning the game ball at the second starting port 12. 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 105a in the special figure storage unit 105 as a special figure 1 storage unit. On the other hand, the special figure 2 related random number is stored in the special figure 2 storage unit 105b in the special figure storage unit 105 as a special figure 2 storage unit. The number of special figure 1 holds that can be stored in the special figure 1 hold storage unit 105a (special figure 1 hold number) and the number of special figure 2 holds that can be stored in the special figure 2 hold storage unit 105b (special figure 2 hold number) It is possible to set an upper limit (for example, 4). 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 gaming machine PY1, when the variable display of the special figure is not performed immediately after the game ball wins the first start port 11 or the second start port 12, specifically, the variable display of the special figure is being executed. If there is a prize during the execution of the jackpot game, it is possible to reserve a variable display of a special figure (or the right to draw a special figure) for the prize. The special figure hold stored in the special figure hold storage unit 105 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.

  The special figure hold number is displayed on the special figure hold indicator 83. Each of the special figure 1 hold indicator 83a and the special figure 2 hold indicator 83b is composed of, for example, four LEDs, and displays the number of special figure hold by turning on the LED for the number of special figure hold. It is possible.

  Further, the variable display of the normal map notifies the result of the general map lottery. In the variable display of the normal map, the stop map is displayed after the variable map is variable. A general map that is displayed in a stopped state (a general map that is derived and displayed as a display result of a variable display or a variable display) is one common map selected from a plurality of types of general maps by a general drawing lottery.

3. Main games by the gaming machine Next, main games played by the pachinko gaming machine PY1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

3-1. Games related to general plans First, the games related to general plans will be explained. When the launched game ball passes through the gate 13, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs a regular drawing. When the general map lottery is performed, the general map display 82 performs variable display of the general map (stop display after the variable display is performed). 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 13 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 13 ends. In the following, the passage of the game ball through the gate 13 when the variable display or the auxiliary game is not performed is referred to as “establishment of the general variable start condition”.

  The pachinko gaming machine PY1 obtains a common figure-related random number when the general figure variable start condition is satisfied in performing such a series of games (a general drawing lottery, a variable drawing of a common drawing, and an auxiliary game). 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.

3-1-1. Winning determination The winning determination is a determination for determining whether or not to win (whether or not to execute an auxiliary game) using one or a plurality of hit determination tables as shown in FIG. The hit determination table can be associated with a gaming state to be described later. In other words, the gaming state includes a non-short-time state and a short-time state. As a hit determination table, a hit determination table used in the non-time-short state (non-time-short hit determination table) and a hit determination table used in the short-time state (short-time use) And a hit determination table). In each winning determination table, normal symbol random number determination values (ordinary symbol random values) are assigned to the winning and losing results of the hit determination. Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 collates the acquired normal symbol random number with the hit determination table, and determines whether or not it is a hit or lose. Then, based on the result of the hit determination, the normal map variation pattern determination for performing variable display of the normal map is performed. 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. In addition, the winning probability of winning can be changed as appropriate.

3-1-2. Normal Map Variation The universal map variation pattern determination is a determination for determining a general map variation pattern using one or a plurality of general map variation pattern determination tables as shown in FIG. The normal map variation pattern is identification information related to a predetermined item related to a variable display of a general map such as a normal map change time.

  The normal variation pattern determination table can be associated with a gaming state. In other words, as a normal figure fluctuation pattern determination table, a normal figure fluctuation pattern determination table (non-time-short normal figure fluctuation pattern determination table) used in a non-temporal state and a normal figure fluctuation pattern determination table (in a time-short state) ( It is possible to distinguish between a short time normal map fluctuation pattern determination table).

  Each normal pattern variation pattern determination table stores one general map variation pattern, which is a result of the general pattern variation pattern determination, for each general map to be stopped. That is, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 can vary the normal time variation time in the non-time-short state and in the time-short state. For example, in the non-time-short state, the variable display of the general figure when the lost figure (losing common figure) is stopped and displayed is determined as a normal figure change pattern in which the normal figure change time is 30 seconds, for example. For the variable display of the normal map when the display is stopped, the normal map change time is determined to be, for example, 30 seconds. In the short-time state, the variable display of the general map when the lost map is stopped and displayed is determined to be the normal pattern change pattern in which the normal map change time is, for example, 5 seconds, and the normal pattern when the win symbol is stopped and displayed. For the variable display of the figure, the usual figure fluctuation pattern is determined such that the usual figure fluctuation time is 5 seconds, for example. The universal map variable display of the regular map variable time associated with the regular map variation pattern determined in this determination is performed by the universal map display 82. Further, these normal time fluctuations can be changed as appropriate. Thus, by performing the hit determination and the normal variation pattern determination, the variable display of the normal map is performed on the general map display 82.

3-1-3. Auxiliary game Auxiliary game is a variable display of a normal figure, and is executed when a winning symbol is stopped (derived) as a display result (result of a common figure lottery).

  The auxiliary game includes various elements such as elements constituting the auxiliary game (auxiliary game components), that is, the number of times the electric Chu 12D is opened, and the opening time for each opening. Each of these elements is associated with a gaming state. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 controls auxiliary games using one or more auxiliary game control tables as shown in FIG. 9C based on the gaming state. The auxiliary game control table is associated with the game state. Each auxiliary game control table stores auxiliary game components. In addition, the number of times of opening and the opening time for each of these elements can be changed as appropriate.

  The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can make the opening time of the electric chews 12D different between the auxiliary game in the non-short-time state and the auxiliary game in the time-short state. For example, in the auxiliary game in the non-time-short state, the electric chew 12D is released only for the first opening time (the time during which it is difficult to win the game ball in the electric chew 12D (for example, 0.08 seconds)). 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 12D is held for the second opening time longer than the first opening time (the time during which it is easy to win the game ball on the electric chewing 12D (eg, 3.00 seconds)). Open. In the following, the auxiliary game in the short-time state is also referred to as “long open auxiliary game”.

3-2. Games related to special figures Next, games related to special figures will be described. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs the special drawing 1 lottery when the launched game ball wins the first starting port 11. When the special figure 1 lottery is performed, the special figure 1 display 81a performs the 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 lost symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is not performed and the game based on the winning is completed.

  Similarly, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs the special drawing 2 lottery when the launched game ball wins the second starting port 12. When the special figure 2 lottery is performed, the special figure 2 display 81b performs the variable display of the special figure 2 (stop display after performing the variable display), and notifies 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, winning a game ball at the first start port 11 is referred to as “first start condition establishment”, and winning a game ball at the second start port 12 “second establishment condition established”. That's it. Further, “satisfaction of the first start condition” and “satisfaction of the second start condition” are collectively referred to as “satisfaction of the start condition”. In addition, the special symbol lost pattern is also referred to as a “special lost symbol” in order to distinguish it from the above-mentioned common symbol lost pattern.

  In performing such a series of games (special drawing lottery, special display variable display, jackpot game, game state setting), the pachinko gaming machine PY1 acquires special figure-related random numbers when the start condition is established, Various determinations are made on the random numbers. As shown in FIG. 8B, the special figure-related random numbers to be acquired include special symbol random numbers (big hit random numbers), big hit symbol type random numbers, reach random numbers, and special figure variation pattern random numbers. The special symbol random number is a random number for determining the jackpot. The jackpot symbol type random number is a random number for determining the jackpot symbol type. The reach random number is a random number for performing reach determination. The special figure variation pattern random number is a random number for determining the variation pattern of the special symbol. Each random number has an appropriate range. A random number may be referred to as determination information.

3-2-1. Jackpot Determination The jackpot determination is a determination for determining whether or not a jackpot (whether or not a jackpot game is executed) using one or a plurality of jackpot determination tables as shown in FIG. The gaming state includes a normal probability state and a high probability state, and the jackpot determination table is associated with whether the game state is a normal probability state or a high probability state. That is, the jackpot determination table used in the normal probability state (normal probability jackpot determination table) and the jackpot determination table used in the high probability state (high probability jackpot determination table) can be distinguished as the jackpot determination table. Is possible.

  In each jackpot determination table, the determination value of the special symbol random number (special symbol random number value) is distributed to the jackpot and the loss that are the results of the jackpot determination. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 compares 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. 10A, 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. Also, the jackpot winning probability can be changed as appropriate.

3-2-2. Jackpot symbol type determination The jackpot symbol type determination is a jackpot symbol type determination (one jackpot symbol type) using one or more jackpot symbol type determination tables as shown in FIG. Is a determination for determining. For each jackpot symbol type, it is possible to associate jackpot components, such as the contents of jackpot, in other words, game benefits given to the player.

  The jackpot symbol type determination table is associated with the type of the special symbol that is variably displayed, in other words, the type of the start port where the winning is attributed to the jackpot symbol type determination (which generated the jackpot symbol type determination). Is possible. That is, as the jackpot symbol type determination table, the jackpot symbol type determination table (first jackpot symbol type determination table) used when performing variable display of the special figure 1 and the jackpot symbol used when performing variable display of the special figure 2 It is possible to distinguish the symbol type determination table (second jackpot symbol type determination table).

  There are multiple types of jackpot symbols, and in each jackpot symbol type determination table, the jackpot symbol type judgment value (big jackpot symbol type random value) is distributed to the jackpot symbol type that is the result of the jackpot symbol type determination Yes. Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 determines the type of the jackpot symbol by collating the acquired jackpot symbol type random number with the jackpot symbol type determination table. In the first jackpot symbol type determination table and the second jackpot symbol type determination table, the jackpot symbol type random number value is appropriately distributed to various jackpot symbols. Also, the distribution ratio of the jackpot symbol type can be changed as appropriate. Also, the type of jackpot symbol can be increased or decreased as appropriate.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 10 (B), the distribution ratio of the jackpot symbol type according to the jackpot symbol type determination for the special symbol 1 is 50% for the jackpot symbol X and 50% for the jackpot symbol Y. The jackpot symbol Z can be set to 100% for the distribution ratio of the jackpot symbol type by determining the jackpot symbol type. As described above, the special figure 1 lottery performed when the game ball is won at the first starting port 11 and the special figure 2 lottery performed when the game ball is won at the second start port 12 are different. It is possible to vary the fraction.

3-2-3. Reach Determination In the reach determination, when the result of the jackpot determination is a loss, whether or not to generate a reach with a special figure variation effect described later using one or a plurality of reach determination tables as shown in FIG. This is a determination for determining whether or not.

  The reach determination table can be associated with a gaming state. That is, as the reach determination table, a reach determination table (non-temporal reach reach determination table) used in a non-short-time state is distinguished from a reach determination table (short-time reach determination table) used in a time-short state. It is possible.

  In each reach determination table, reach random number determination values (reach random values) are distributed between reach determination results “reach” (reach is generated) and “reach is not generated (reach is not generated)”. . Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 compares the acquired reach random number with the reach determination table to determine whether there is reach or not (whether or not reach is generated). As shown in FIG. 10C, it is possible to vary the number of reach random numbers determined to be “with reach (generate reach)” between the non-short-time reach determination table and the short-time reach determination table. It is. In the following, “with reach (generates a reach)” performed on the assumption that the result of the jackpot determination is “lost” is referred to as “lost with reach” and “no reach (does not generate reach)” ) ”Is sometimes referred to as“ unreach without reach ”.

3-2-4. Special figure fluctuation The special figure fluctuation pattern judgment is performed by using one or a plurality of special symbol fluctuation pattern judgment tables (special figure fluctuation pattern judgment table) as shown in FIGS. 11 to 12. This is a determination for determining (special figure fluctuation pattern), and is performed regardless of whether the result of jackpot determination is a jackpot or a loss. The special figure variation pattern is identification information for identifying predetermined items relating to a special figure variation time, an effect flow (effect contents) of a special figure variation effect described later, and the like. The special figure variation pattern can include identification information regarding the result of the jackpot determination and the reach determination in addition to the special figure variation time and the production flow (production contents) of the special figure fluctuation production. As the special figure fluctuation pattern, a plurality of types of special figure fluctuation patterns having different identification information can be used, and the number thereof can be changed as appropriate.

  The special figure variation pattern determination table can be associated with the type of the special symbol that is subjected to variable display to be determined, in other words, the type of the start port where the winning due to the special diagram variation pattern determination is performed. That is, as the special figure fluctuation pattern determination table, the special figure fluctuation pattern determination table (special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment table: FIG. 11) used when performing variable display of special figure 1 and the variable display of special figure 2 are performed. It is possible to distinguish the special figure fluctuation pattern determination table (special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table: FIG. 12) used sometimes.

  Each special figure variation pattern determination table can also be associated with a gaming state. That is, as the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table (non-time reduction special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table) used in the non-short-time state and the special figure 1 used in time-short state. It is possible to distinguish the fluctuation pattern determination table (time-saving special figure 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. It is possible to distinguish between the 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 can be further associated with a jackpot determination result, a jackpot symbol type determination result, or a 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 include a jackpot (for each jackpot symbol type), a reach loss, and a non-reach loss, respectively. Similarly, the time-saving special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table and the time-saving special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table include a jackpot (for each jackpot symbol type), reach loss, and non-reach loss, respectively.

  Furthermore, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for each reachless loss can be associated with the number of special figure holds. For example, it is used when the special figure 1 hold number (U1) is 0 to 2, and when the special figure 1 hold number (U1) is 3-4. It is possible to distinguish from the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table for loss without reach. Further, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for each reachless lose can be associated with the number of special figure holds. For example, it is used when the special figure 2 hold number (U2) is 0 to 2, and when the special figure 2 hold number (U2) is 3-4. It is possible to distinguish from the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for losing without reach.

  Then, the special figure display unit 81 performs variable display of the special figure of the special figure fluctuation time according to the special figure fluctuation pattern determined in each special figure fluctuation pattern determination. When the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed as the display result (result of the special chart lottery) in the variable display of the special figure, the variable display of the next special figure is not immediately performed and the jackpot game is subsequently executed. The

  Further, each special figure variation pattern can be associated with the production flow of the special figure variation effect as shown in the second column from the right in the tables of FIGS.

  In addition, as shown in the rightmost column of the tables of FIGS. 11 to 12, the special figure variation pattern may be given a name in association with the special figure (big hit determination result) and the contents of the special figure variation production. is there. For example, a special figure fluctuation pattern related to jackpot is called “jackpot fluctuation”. On the other hand, the special pattern fluctuation pattern in which SP reach, which is a type of reach, is performed among the loses with reach is called “SP loss fluctuation”, and the L reach, which is a type of reach, among the loses with reach, is performed. The figure fluctuation pattern is “L Loss fluctuation”, and among the losses with reach, the special figure fluctuation pattern where the special figure fluctuation production ends with N reach, which is a type of reach, is “N lose fluctuation”, without reach. Such a special figure fluctuation pattern is referred to as “normal loss fluctuation”.

3-2-5. Pre-reading determination Pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs pre-reading determination using one or a plurality of pre-reading determination tables as shown in FIG. 13 based on the acquired special figure related random numbers. The look-ahead determination includes, for example, a determination as to whether or not a special symbol random number is determined to be a jackpot in the jackpot determination, a determination as to which jackpot symbol type the jackpot symbol type random number is determined in the jackpot symbol type determination, There are, for example, determination as to which special figure fluctuation pattern is determined by the special figure fluctuation pattern determination. The look-ahead determination table can be associated with the type of the start port related to the start winning. That is, as a pre-reading determination table, a pre-reading determination table (first pre-reading determination table) when winning at the first start port 11 and a pre-reading determination table (second pre-reading determination table) when winning at the second start port 12 , Can be distinguished.

  Further, the prefetch determination table can be associated with the gaming state. That is, the prefetch determination table used in the non-short-time state (non-temporal pre-read determination table) and the pre-read determination table (time-short pre-read determination table) used in the short-time state are distinguished as the pre-read determination table. It is possible.

  That is, the prefetch determination table includes a first prefetch determination table used in the non-time-short state, a first pre-read determination table used in the time-short state, and a second pre-read determination table used in the non-time-short state. And the second prefetch determination table used in the time-short state can be distinguished. Note that what kind of determination is included in the prefetch determination can be changed as appropriate.

3-3. Next, the jackpot game will be described. The jackpot game includes a plurality of round games that involve opening and closing of the big prize opening (the first big prize opening 14 or the second big prize opening 15) 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. Moreover, it is possible not to provide OP or ED. 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 of opening of the big prize opening (the first big prize opening 14 or the second big prize opening 15) in each round game, Includes the type and opening time (opening pattern) of each winning prize opening, opening time (closing time), opening time (opening time), ending time (ending time), etc. ing. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 controls the jackpot game using one or a plurality of jackpot game control tables as shown in FIG. The jackpot game control table stores jackpot game components for each jackpot game. As a jackpot game, it is possible to control one or more types of jackpot games.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 14, from 1R to 15R, a round game in which the first grand prize opening 14 opens for a maximum of 29.5 seconds, or the first big prize opening 14 for a maximum of 0.1 seconds. Opening round game is performed. In 16R (final round), there is a round game in which the second grand prize opening 15 is released for a maximum of 29.5 seconds, or a round game in which the second big prize opening 15 is released for a maximum of 0.1 seconds. Done. In each round game, when a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls are detected by the big prize opening sensor, even before the maximum opening time of the big prize openings 14, 15 has elapsed, End the round game.

  Further, the number of times and the time in each element can be changed as appropriate. Further, the jackpot game can be performed using both the first grand prize winning port 14 and the second grand prize winning port 15, or using only one of them.

  Here, the specific area 16 will be described in detail. Since the specific region 16 takes a closed state in which a prize cannot be awarded and an open state in which a prize can be won by the distribution member 16k, the operating mode of the distribution member 16k can be referred to as an open / close mode of the specific region 16. Hereinafter, the operation mode of the sorting member 16k is also referred to as “opening / closing mode of the specific region 16”. In this way, the sorting member 16k is controlled in a constant operation mode (the specific region 16 is a constant opening / closing mode), but the constant operation mode of the sorting member 16k (the constant opening / closing mode of the specific region 16), In combination with the opening / closing mode of the second big winning opening 15 in the jackpot game, the difficulty (ease) of making the game ball enter the specific area 16 in the jackpot game is set. Hereinafter, the specific region 16 being in the open state is also referred to as “V open”.

  The distribution solenoid 16s is energized for 15 seconds after the opening of the second big prize opening starts, and the distribution member 16k is controlled to the second state (FIG. 3B). Therefore, in the round game in which the second grand prize opening 15 is opened for 29.5 seconds at the maximum, the opening time and timing of the second big prize opening 15 and the time controlled to the second state of the distribution member 16k and From the relationship with the timing, it is easy for the game ball to pass through the specific area 16 (to enter the specific area 16). On the other hand, in a round game in which the second grand prize opening 15 is opened for 0.1 seconds at the maximum, the opening time and timing of the second big prize opening 15 and the time controlled to the second state of the distribution member 16k and From the relationship with the timing, it is almost impossible (difficult) that the game ball passes through the specific area 16 (the game ball enters the specific area 16). 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 16 (hereinafter also referred to as “V passing pattern”). The VAT opening / closing member 15k and the sorting member 16k are operated in the jackpot game in which the 15k and the sorting member 16k are operated and the second opening pattern (V short opening pattern) in which it is impossible or difficult to pass the specific area 16 of the game ball. It is possible to execute a jackpot game. Thus, the jackpot game in which the VAT opening / closing member 15k and the sorting member 16k operate in the V long opening pattern is referred to as “V long jackpot”. On the other hand, the jackpot game in which the VAT opening / closing member 15k and the sorting member 16k are operated in the V short opening pattern is referred to as “V short jackpot”.

3-4. Game State Next, the game state will be described. As shown in FIG. 15, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 has a “low probability low base gaming state”, “low probability high base gaming state”, “high probability low base gaming state”, “high probability high base gaming state” and “ The game state can be any one of the “hit game state”. “Low probability low base gaming state” is “low probability low base state”, “low probability high base gaming state” is “low probability high base state”, and “high probability low base gaming state” is “high probability The “low base state” and the “high probability high base game state” can be abbreviated as “high probability high base state”, respectively. As the states constituting the gaming state, there are a state related to the probability of being determined as “big hit” in the jackpot determination, and a state related to the ease of opening of the electric Chu 12D. 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 state that is set in the “low probability low base gaming state” or the “low probability high base gaming state”, and the probability that the jackpot determination is determined to be a jackpot is a normal probability. The high probability state is a state that is set in the “high probability low base gaming state” or the “high probability high base gaming state”, and the probability that the jackpot determination is determined to be a jackpot is higher than the normal probability. Therefore, it can be said that the high probability state is more advantageous to the player than the normal probability state. When power is first turned on in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, a normal probability state is set. And it becomes possible to switch from a normal probability state to a high probability state by winning a jackpot. For example, in a jackpot game, it is possible to switch to a high probability state when a game ball passes through the specific area 16. It is also possible to switch to a high probability state depending on the type of jackpot symbol. In the high-probability state, it is possible to switch from the high-probability state to the normal-probability state by performing a jackpot determination a predetermined number of times without winning a jackpot or winning the next jackpot.

  The non-time-short state is set in the “low probability low base gaming state”, “high probability low base gaming state”, or “big hit gaming state”. The short-time state is set in the “low-probability high-base game state” or “high-probability high-base game state”. It is. For example, in the short time state, the open time (for example, 3.00 seconds) is longer than the open time (for example, 0.08 seconds) of the electric chew 12D in the non-short time state. In the short-time state, the special-figure variation pattern determination is performed using a special-figure variation pattern determination table that is determined so that the number of special-figure variation patterns with a short special-figure variation time is selected more than in the non-time-short state. It is also possible to do this (see FIGS. 11 to 12). 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, the time reduction state can easily make the normal time change time shorter than the non-time reduction state. For example, in the short-time state, the normal time fluctuation time (5 seconds) shorter than the normal time fluctuation time (30 seconds) determined in the non-time-short state is determined. Therefore, the number of times of the general drawing lottery per unit time is larger in the short time state.

  In addition, it is possible to make it easier for the time-short state to be determined as a win in the hit determination than in the non-time-short state. For example, in the short-time state, the hit is determined with a higher probability (for example, 59936/65536) than the probability (for example, 6600/65536) that is determined to be a hit in the non-time-short state. 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 chews 12D per unit time is longer than in the non-time reduction state, and it is easy for the game balls to win frequently at the second start port 12. 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. Therefore, it can be said that the short-time state is more advantageous to the player than the non-short-time state.

  When the power is first turned on in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, the non-time-saving state is set. And, for example, a short time state can be set by winning a jackpot. In the short-time state, it is possible to change from the short-time state to the non-short-time state by making a jackpot determination a predetermined number of times without winning a jackpot or by winning the next jackpot.

  In the short-time state, it is easier to win a win, the normal fluctuation time is likely to be shorter, and the opening time of the electric Chu 12D in one auxiliary game is likely to be longer than in the non-time-short state. The game according to the usual figure is set to be advantageous to the player in three respects. However, some of the points that are advantageously set for the player may be included.

  The gaming state after the power is first turned on in the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is a “low probability low base gaming state” in which a normal probability state and a non-time-short state are set. This gaming state is also referred to as a “normal gaming state”. In the “hit game state”, the hit determination is performed but the jackpot determination is not performed. Therefore, the non-short-time state is set as the jackpot game is started. As for the gaming state, it is possible to use all of the gaming state described above or only a part thereof.

4). Next, main effects performed by the pachinko gaming machine PY1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

4-1. Production Mode First, the production mode will be described. The production mode is a division of production (or higher conceptual attribute). The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can set a customer waiting effect mode, a normal effect mode, a probability variation effect mode, a time reduction effect mode, and a jackpot effect mode as effect modes.

  In the customer waiting effect mode, special figure variation effects are performed in “low probability low base gaming state”, “low probability high base gaming state”, “high probability low base gaming state” and “high probability high base gaming state”. It is an effect mode that can be set when there is not, and indicates a standby state in which no special figure variation effect is performed. The customer waiting effect is performed when the customer waiting effect mode is set. In the customer waiting effect, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (A-1), a customer waiting demonstration video G100 introducing the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is displayed on the display unit 50a. Further, when the normal button 40 is operated while the customer waiting demo video G100 is displayed, as shown in FIG. Is displayed. Settings related to effects include volume setting of sound output from the speaker 52, luminance setting of the display unit 50a ("light quantity setting"), frequency setting of effects to be executed ("effect setting"), and the like.

  The normal performance mode is an effect mode that can be set when the special figure variation effect is being performed in the “low probability low base game state” or the “high probability low base game state” and indicates a non-time-short state. is there. In the normal effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16B-1, a first normal effect mode in which a background image (daytime normal background image G102) representing a daytime mountain landscape is displayed on the display unit 50a. As shown in FIG. 16B-2, a second normal effect mode in which a background image (evening normal background image G103) representing the evening mountain scenery is displayed on the display unit 50a, and FIG. As shown in -3), there is a third normal effect mode in which a background image (night-time normal background image G104) representing a night mountain landscape is displayed on the display unit 50a. It is switched as one condition that the special figure variation effect is performed one or more times. Further, each of the first to third normal performance modes includes a normal first stage production mode before reach is established and a normal rear stage production mode after reach is established in the special figure variation production. In the normal front stage production mode, any one of the daytime normal background image G102, the evening normal background image G103, and the night normal background image G104 is displayed on the display unit 50a. A corresponding background image is displayed. Further, a special performance mode that is set only in the “high probability low base gaming state” may be provided.

  The probability variation effect mode is an effect mode that can be set when the special figure variation effect is being performed in the “high probability high base game state”, and is an effect mode that indicates a high probability state and a short time state. In the probability changing effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16B-4, a background image (probability changing background image G105) representing the universe is displayed on the display unit 50a. Further, the probability variation effect mode includes a probability variation pre-stage effect mode before reach is established and a probability change post-stage effect mode after reach is established in the special figure variation effect. In the pre-change change effect mode, the probability change background image G105 is displayed on the display unit 50a. In the post-change change effect mode, a dedicated background image corresponding to the type of reach is displayed.

  The short time effect mode is an effect mode that can be set when a special figure variation effect is being performed in the “low probability high base game state”, and is an effect mode that indicates a normal probability state and a short time state. In the time reduction effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B-5), a background image representing the sky (time reduction background image G106) is displayed on the display unit 50a. Further, the short-time effect mode includes a short-time pre-stage effect mode before reach is established and a short-time post-stage effect mode after reach is established in the special figure variation effect. In the pre-time reduction effect mode, the time-shortening background image G106 is displayed on the display unit 50a, but in the time-shortage post-effect mode, a dedicated background image corresponding to the type of reach is displayed.

  The jackpot effect mode is an effect mode that can be set when a jackpot game is being played in the “hit game state”, and is an effect mode that indicates that a jackpot game is being played. In the jackpot effect mode, for example, during the opening in the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16C-1, on the display unit 50a, the opening image G107 suggesting the start of the jackpot game or the right for prompting “right hit” A jackpot opening effect in which the hit image G108 is displayed is performed. During the round in the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16C-2, the display unit 50a displays a round image G109 indicating the number of rounds and a prize ball number image G110 indicating the number of prize balls that have been paid out. Round production will be performed. During the ending in the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16C-3, the display unit 50a suggests the ending image G111 indicating the effect mode set after the jackpot game and the total number of paid-out balls. The jackpot ending effect is displayed in which the total prize ball number image G112 to be displayed is displayed.

  In addition, about the kind of effect mode, it is possible to change or add suitably.

4-2. Next, the special figure fluctuation effect (also simply referred to as “fluctuation effect”) will be described. When the variable display of the special figure is started, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 has a special figure variation pattern and a special figure lottery result (a jackpot determination result, a jackpot symbol type determination result, a reach determination result, and The special figure variation effect is executed based on the special figure fluctuation pattern determination result). In the special figure variation effect, the display unit 50a displays a variation of the effect symbol in a superimposed manner on a predetermined background image. The production symbol is composed of, for example, numeric symbols 1 to 9, and in the variation display of the production symbol, the production symbol fluctuates with the start of the variable display of the special figure, and the production symbol with the end of the variable display of the special figure Stops. 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. And the result of a special figure lottery is alert | reported by the stop display of an effect design.

  In the special drawing variation effect, in addition to the effect symbol variation display, the image display device 50, the speaker 52, the frame lamp 53, the panel lamp 54, the movable devices 55, 56, 58, the normal button 40, the special button 41, etc. It is possible to perform other effects using a simple effect device. In this case, other effects can be continuously performed even after the effect symbol is stopped and displayed.

4-2-1. Effect symbol display area As shown in FIG. 17A, the display 50a of the image display device 50 has a left effect on each of the left side, the center, and the right side of the display unit 50a divided into three substantially horizontally. It is possible to provide a symbol area 50b1, a middle effect symbol area 50b2, and a right effect symbol area 50b3. The left effect symbol area 50b1 is an area for displaying the left effect symbol EZ1 when the effect symbol stop display is performed in the special symbol variation effect. Similarly, the medium effect symbol area 50b2 and the right effect symbol area 50b3 are areas in which the medium effect symbol EZ2 and the right effect symbol EZ3 are displayed.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 17A, a small symbol region 50c can be provided in a section of the left end (upper left corner) of the upper end portion of the display unit 50a. The small symbol area 50c is an area in which the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are variably displayed when the special symbol variable display is performed. The small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are composed of numeric symbols 1 to 9, for example.

  In FIG. 17A, the left effect symbol region 50b1, the middle effect symbol region 50b2, the right effect symbol region 50b3, and the small symbol region 50c are clearly indicated by a two-dot chain line, but this is the left effect symbol region 50b1. These are described to represent the ranges of the medium effect symbol area 50b2, the right effect symbol area 50b3, and the small symbol area 50c, and are not actually displayed.

4-2-2. Normal fluctuation The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can first perform a normal fluctuation in the special figure fluctuation effect. The normal variation functions as an effect that suggests that variable display of the special figure has started.

  When the special display variable display is started, for example, as shown in FIG. 17A, the left effect symbol EZ1, the middle effect symbol EZ2, and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed on the display unit 50a. The left small symbol KZ1, the medium small symbol KZ2, and the right small symbol KZ3 are stopped, the variable display of the special figure is not performed, and the state of waiting for the variable display of the special figure from FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, with the start, the change display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is started, and the change display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is started. Note that “↓” in FIG. 17 indicates that the symbol variation is being displayed. When the special figure variable pattern of the special figure variable display is, for example, “normal loss fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. 17C-1, the left effect symbol EZ1 and the right effect symbol EZ3 are different. After the temporary stop in the stop mode, as shown in FIG. 17D, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a stop mode (so-called disparity) that suggests a loss. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed together in a stop mode that suggests a loss. There are multiple types of stop modes that suggest a loss, such as “1, 1, 2” and “2, 4, 6”, where the left and right symbols are not the same. On the other hand, when the special figure variation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is a special figure fluctuation pattern with a reach such as “N loss fluctuation”, for example, as shown in FIG. And the right effect design EZ3 temporarily stop in the same stop mode (so-called reach eyes), and reach is established. At this time, the variation display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 is continuously performed, and the reach effect according to the special diagram variation pattern is performed. In addition, the stop order and stop mode of the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 can be changed as appropriate.

4-2-3. N-reach The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform N-reach when reach is established in normal fluctuations. The N reach is an effect suggesting that there is a possibility that the result of the jackpot determination is a “hit”, and functions as an effect for causing the player to expect a jackpot.

  In the N reach, as shown in FIG. 18A, the state where the reach is established is maintained for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds), and as shown in FIG. Will slow down. When the special figure variation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “N loss fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. 18C-1, a stop mode (so-called reach lose eye) suggesting reach loss is produced. The symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are stopped and displayed. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed all together in a stop mode that suggests reach loss. There are multiple types of stop modes that suggest reach loss, such as “7, 6, 7” and “5, 3, 5”, in which the left and right symbols are the same and the middle symbol is different from the left and right symbols. On the other hand, when the special figure variation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “N big hit fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. indicate. There are multiple types of stop modes that suggest a big hit, such as “7, 7, 7” and “2, 2, 2”, which have the same left and right symbols. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed simultaneously in a stop mode that suggests a big hit. It should be noted that the effect content of N reach is not limited to the moderate effect symbol EZ2 gradually decelerating, and can be changed or added as appropriate.

4-2-4. SP Reach The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform SP reach after N reach. The SP reach is an effect that suggests that the possibility that the result of the jackpot determination is a “hit” is higher than the N reach, and functions as an effect for causing the player to expect a jackpot.

  In SP reach, after N reach, for example, as shown in FIG. 19A, a background image dedicated to SP reach (SP reach background image G113) is displayed on the display unit 50a, and SP is displayed in the center of the display unit 50a. An image (SP reach start title image) G1 representing the start of reach is displayed. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 19B, an SP reach exclusive effect (for example, a battle effect) is performed. Then, when the final phase of the SP reach exclusive effect is reached, when the special figure variable pattern of the special figure variable display is, for example, “SP jackpot fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. At 50a, an effect that suggests a jackpot (for example, a display in which the main character is delighted to win the battle) is performed, and the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped in a stop mode that suggests a jackpot (a so-called doublet) indicate. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed simultaneously in a stop mode that suggests a big hit. On the other hand, when the special figure variable pattern of the special figure variable display is, for example, “SP loss fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. 19 (C-2), an effect suggesting the loss (for example, an enemy character in battle) Display that is delighted to win) is performed, and the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 stop display in a stop mode that suggests reach lose. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also stopped and displayed together in a stop mode that suggests a loss. It should be noted that the effect content of SP reach can be changed or added as appropriate.

  Here, the possibility that the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 for each reach will be stopped in a manner that indicates a jackpot (expected degree of jackpot) will be described in detail. The jackpot expectation for each reach is determined by the execution probability based on the result of the jackpot determination. For example, when the execution probability of N reach is 10% when the result of the jackpot determination is “losing” and 100% when the result of the jackpot determination is “hit”, the execution probability of the SP reach is If the jackpot determination result is “losing” and 4%, and if the jackpot determination result is “hit”, 100%, the SP reach jackpot expectation is higher than the N reach jackpot expectation It can be set high. In addition, SP reach A and SP reach B can be executed as SP reach, and the execution probability of SP reach A is set to 2% when the result of the jackpot determination is “losing”, and the result of the jackpot determination is “big hit”. In the case of 20%, the execution probability of SP reach B is 2% when the result of the jackpot determination is “losing”, and 30% when the result of the jackpot determination is “big hit”. For example, the SP jackpot expectation degree of SP reach B can be set higher than the SP jackpot expectation degree of SP reach A. In this way, the jackpot expectation can be set by appropriately setting the execution probability according to the result of the jackpot determination.

4-3. On-hold icon display area The display unit 50a of the image display device 50 can be provided with an on-hold icon display area 50d composed of four display areas as shown in FIG.

The special symbol determination process is a process performed when the special symbol is stopped and displayed. In the special symbol determination process, when the special symbol currently stopped and displayed is a jackpot symbol, the game is shifted to the jackpot gaming state. Then, an opening command indicating the start of the jackpot game is generated. The opening command includes information related to the result of the jackpot type determination. In addition, when the special figure currently stopped and displayed is a lost symbol and the high probability state is terminated, the normal probability state is set. Then, a high probability end command indicating the transition to the normal probability state is generated. When the special figure currently stopped and displayed is a lost symbol and the time-short state is to be ended, the non-time-short state is set. Then, a time saving end command indicating the transition to the non-time saving state is generated. If the special figure currently stopped is a lost symbol and the special figure 2 hold number and the special figure 1 hold number are “0”, the customer wait indicating that the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is in a standby state. Generate a command.

[2-3-4. Big hit game control processing]
The jackpot game control process is a process performed in the jackpot game state. In the jackpot game control process, a jackpot game is performed using the jackpot game control table. After the transition to the jackpot game state, each round game is started according to the elapse of the opening time or the closing time. Then, a round game command indicating the start of the round game is generated. Also, the ending is started in response to finishing the final round game. Then, an ending command indicating the end of the jackpot game is generated. The ending command includes information on the result of the jackpot type determination.

[2-3-5. Game state setting process]
The game state setting process is a process that is performed when the jackpot game state ends. In the gaming state setting process, when changing from the normal probability state to the high probability state, the high probability state is set at the end of the jackpot gaming state. When the duration of the high probability state is limited, the duration of the high probability state (for example, the number of special display variable displays that can continue the high probability state without winning a jackpot) is also set. Then, a high probability setting command indicating the setting of the high probability state is generated. When changing from the non-time saving state to the time saving state, the time saving state is set when the jackpot gaming state ends. When the duration of the short-time state is limited, the duration of the short-time state (for example, the number of special display variable displays that can continue the short-time state without winning a jackpot) is also set. Then, a time reduction setting command indicating the setting of the time reduction state is generated.

  Note that the commands generated by the game control microcomputer 101 in each process can be added or changed as appropriate.

6). Production Control by Production Control Microcomputer 121 Next, production control by production control microcomputer 121 will be described with reference to FIGS. 25 and 26. FIG. It should be noted that counters, timers, flags, buffers, and the like that appear in the following description of control of effects by the effect control microcomputer 121 are provided in the effect RAM 124.

[1. Sub-control main process]
When the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is powered on, the effect control microcomputer 121 provided on the sub control board 120 reads out and executes the program of the sub control main process shown in FIG. 25 from the effect ROM 123. 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, setting of the CPU 122 for production, setting of SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time) and the like are performed.

  Next, interruption is 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. As an example, the update method of the effect determination random number counter for various effects can be the same as the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process performed by the main control board 100 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 normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process performed by the main control board 100 described above.

  When the random number seed update process ends, a command transmission process is executed (S4004). In the command transmission process, various commands stored in the output buffer in the effect RAM 124 of the sub control board 120 are transmitted to the image control board 140. The image control board 140 that has received the command displays an image on the display unit 50a in accordance with the received command (executes various effects based on the image). In addition to the various effects performed by the image control board 140, the sub-control board 120 outputs sound from the speaker 52 via the sound control circuit 161 (executes various sound effects by sound), and lamp control. The frame lamp 53 and the panel lamp 54 are caused to emit light via the circuit 151 (perform various light emission effects by light emission), and the movable devices 55, 56, 58 are actuated (various movable body effects depending on the operation). Or run).

  Next, the production control microcomputer 121 permits interruption (S4005). Thereafter, steps S4002 to S4005 are looped. While the interrupt is permitted, the reception interrupt process (S4010) and the sub timer interrupt process (S4011) can be executed.

  The reception interrupt process (S4010) is executed each time various commands sent from the main control board 100 are input to the effect control microcomputer 121. In the reception interrupt process (S4010), the effect control microcomputer 121 stores various commands transmitted and received in the output process (S101) of the main control board 100 in the reception buffer of the effect RAM 124. This reception interrupt process is executed with priority over other interrupt processes (S4011).

[2. Sub timer interrupt processing]
The sub timer interrupt process (S4011) is executed every time an interrupt pulse having a predetermined period (for example, 1 msec period) is input to the sub control board 120. In the sub timer interruption process (S4011), as shown in FIG. 26, the input process (S4101), the light emission data output process (S4102), the movable device control process (S4103), the watchdog timer process (S4104), and the received command analysis A process (S4105), an effect timer update process (S4106), an audio control process (S4107), and an effect data creation process (S4108) are sequentially performed.

  In the input process, an operation on an operation unit that can be operated by the player, such as the normal button detection switch 40a and the special button detection switch 41a, is detected. In the light emission data output process, the light emission data is generated so that the lamps such as the frame lamp 53 and the panel lamp 54 emit light based on the production data created in the production data creation process, which will be described later. Is output to the lamp control circuit 151. That is, the effect control microcomputer 121 causes the frame lamp 53, the panel lamp 54, and the like to emit light in a predetermined light emission mode according to the light emission data. In the movable device control process, drive data is output in order to perform a movable body effect that operates the movable devices such as the movable devices 55, 56, and 58 at a predetermined timing based on the production data created in the production data creation process. To do. That is, the effect control microcomputer 121 performs a movable body effect that operates the movable devices 55, 56, 58, and the like in a predetermined operation mode according to the drive data. In watchdog timer processing, the watchdog timer is reset.

  In the received command analysis process, the command stored in the reception buffer of the effect RAM 124 by the reception interrupt process (S4010) is analyzed, and the process corresponding to the command (for example, selecting an effect, setting an effect mode, setting a command, etc.) I do. In the effect timer update process, a timer for measuring the time related to each effect is updated. In the voice control process, voice data (data for controlling voice output from the speaker 52) is created and output to the voice control circuit 161 based on the processing result of the received command analysis process. In the production data creation process, production data is created based on the processing result of the received command analysis process.

<First Embodiment>
Hereinafter, the first embodiment will be described. Unless otherwise stated, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the basic embodiment described above is also applied to the first embodiment.

  First, the special figure 1 variation pattern that can be determined by the game control microcomputer 101 will be described. The gaming ROM 103 stores a special figure 1 variation pattern determination table shown in FIG. The gaming control microcomputer 101 can determine the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern using the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table shown in FIG. In the first embodiment, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table shown in FIG. 27 is used. However, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment table shown in FIG. 11 can be used in combination.

  The game control microcomputer 101 determines the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern based on the jackpot determination result, the reach determination result, and the special figure fluctuation pattern random number in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination processing in the non-time-saving state. As shown in FIG. 27, the game control microcomputer 101 has 12 types of special charts of “THP001” to “THP004”, “THP011” to “THP016”, and “THP021” to “THP022” as special figure 1 variation patterns. One variation pattern can be determined. Which special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is determined depends on the special figure fluctuation pattern random number.

  Specifically, when the result of the jackpot determination is “big hit”, one of the four types of special figure 1 variation patterns “THP001” to “THP004” is determined. Of the four types of special figure 1 fluctuation patterns, “THP003” and “THP004” are more easily determined than the other special figure 1 fluctuation patterns. “THP001” is called “final battle jackpot fluctuation”, “THP002” is called “battle jackpot fluctuation”, “THP003” is called “battle / story jackpot fluctuation”, and “THP004” is “story jackpot fluctuation”. That's it.

  If the result of the jackpot determination is “losing” and the result of the reach determination is “with reach”, one of the six types of special figure 1 variation patterns “THP011” to “THP016” is determined. The Of the six types of special figure 1 fluctuation patterns, “THP015” and “THP016” are more easily determined than the other special figure 1 fluctuation patterns. “THP011” is referred to as “final battle loss fluctuation”, “THP012” is referred to as “battle loss fluctuation”, “THP013” is referred to as “battle / story loss fluctuation”, and “THP014” is referred to as “story loss fluctuation”. “THP015” is referred to as “branch A loss fluctuation”, and “THP016” is referred to as “branch B loss fluctuation”.

  If the result of the jackpot determination is “losing” and the result of the reach determination is “no reach”, one of the two types of special figure 1 variation patterns “THP021” to “THP022” is determined. The Which one of the two types of special figure 1 fluctuation patterns is determined depends on the number of special figure 1 reservations. When the special figure 1 holding number is 0 to 1, “THP021” having a relatively long special figure fluctuation time of 13000 ms is easily determined, and when the special figure 1 holding number is 2 to 4, the special figure “THP022” having a relatively short fluctuation time of 4000 ms is easily determined. “THP021” is referred to as “normal A loss fluctuation”, and “THP022” is referred to as “normal B loss fluctuation”.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 28, a movable device mounted on the effect unit 1U of the game board unit YU will be described. In addition to the on-board movable device 55 and the below-board movable device 56, the rendering unit 1U is equipped with a left panel movable device 57L and a right panel movable device 57R.

  A motor is connected to each of the on-board movable device 55, the below-board movable device 56, the left-panel movable device 57L, and the right-panel movable device 57R, and each motor is connected to the sub-control board 120 as various actuators SA. . The production control microcomputer 121 can drive the on-board movable device 55, the below-board movable device 56, the on-board left movable device 57L, and the on-board movable device 57R by controlling each motor.

  As described above, the on-board movable device 55 includes the on-board movable body 55k that is disposed in front of the display unit 50a and is movable along the display unit 50a. As described above, the lower panel movable device 56 includes the lower panel movable body 56k that is disposed in front of the display unit 50a and is movable along the display unit 50a. The panel left movable device 57L includes a panel left movable body 57Lk that is disposed in front of the display unit 50a, the panel movable device 55, and the panel movable device 56 and is movable along the display unit 50a. The panel right movable device 57R includes a panel right movable body 57Rk that is disposed in front of the display unit 50a, the panel movable device 55, and the panel movable device 56 and is movable along the display unit 50a.

  As shown in FIG. 28 (A), the panel left movable body 57Lk and the panel right movable body 57Rk are operated by the display unit 50a of the image display device 50 before the panel left movable device 57L and the panel right movable device 57R are driven. It is held in a standby state that is easily visible. When the panel left movable device 57L is driven, the panel left movable body 57Lk moves to the right, and when the panel right movable device 57R is driven, the panel right movable body 57Rk moves to the left. At this time, as shown in FIG. 28B, the display unit 50a is covered with the moved panel left movable body 57Lk or the moved panel right movable body 57Rk, and the display unit 50a becomes difficult to visually recognize.

  The on-board movable body 55k is provided with a on-board lamp 55SL, the down-panel movable body 56k is provided with a down-board lamp 56SL, and the on-board left movable body 57Lk is provided with a on-board left lamp 57LSL. The body 57Rk is provided with a panel right lamp 57RSL. The panel lamp 55SL, the panel lower lamp 56SL, the panel left lamp 57LSL, and the panel right lamp 57RSL each include an LED, and are connected to the sub-control board 120 as various lamps SL. The effect control microcomputer 121 can cause the lamps 55SL, 56SL, 57LSL, and 57RSL to emit light in an arbitrary emission color.

  The on-board movable body 55k, the on-board movable body 56k, and the on-board right movable body 57Rk are each provided with a semi-transparent lens body. This is done via each lens body. In addition, the board left movable body 57Lk is provided with a translucent logo lens body 57Lkl that imitates a “story” character that reminds the player of “story reach” to be described later. This is done through the logo lens body 57Lkl.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 29 to FIG. 39, the special figure variation effect that can be executed by the effect control microcomputer 121 according to the special figure 1 variation pattern determined by the game control microcomputer 101 will be described. The effect control microcomputer 121 can execute the following effects in the special figure fluctuation effect in the non-time-short state.

A. Normal variation “Normal variation” is an effect that may be performed in response to the start of variable display of a special figure, and is an effect in which the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are variably displayed. Since “normal fluctuation” is first performed in the special figure fluctuation effect, it functions as an effect suggesting that the special figure fluctuation effect has been started.

B. Reach “Reach” is an effect in which the left effect symbol EZ1 and the right effect symbol EZ3 stop and display with the same effect symbol after “normal fluctuation”. Since “reach” is sometimes performed when the result of the jackpot determination is “jackpot”, it functions as an effect suggesting that a jackpot game may be performed. In addition, “reach” may later develop into reach production such as “battle reach” and “story reach”, and thus also functions as an effect suggesting that there is a possibility of reach production.

C. Branch effect “Branch effect” is an effect that may be performed after “reach” is established, and is an effect that suggests whether the effect will develop after that. Since the “branch effect” is sometimes performed when the result of the jackpot determination is “hit”, it functions as an effect that suggests that a jackpot game may be performed. In addition, since the “branch effect” may later develop into a reach effect such as “battle reach” or “story reach”, it also functions as an effect that suggests that a reach effect may be performed.

D. Battle development gimmick production “Battle development gimmick production” is an effect that may be performed in the “branch production”, and the on-board movable body 55k, the down-panel movable body 56k, and the on-board movable body 57Rk are displayed in a predetermined order. This is a step-up effect that appears on the part 50a. Since the “battle development gimmick production” may subsequently develop into “battle reach”, it functions as an effect that suggests that “battle reach” may be performed.

E. Story development gimmick production “Story development gimmick production” is an effect that may be performed in the “branch production”. This is a step-up effect that appears on the display unit 50a in a predetermined order. Since the “story development gimmick production” may subsequently develop into “story reach”, it functions as a production that suggests that “story reach” may be performed.

F. Battle Reach “Battle Reach” is an effect that may be performed after a “branch effect” in which a “battle development gimmick effect” is performed, and is a reach effect in which an ally character battles with an enemy character. “Battle Reach” is more likely to be a big hit game because it is more likely to be a “big hit” than when the result of the big hit determination is “losing”. Function. In addition, since “battle reach” may later develop into “final battle reach” or “story reach”, it also functions as an effect suggesting that there is a possibility that the reach effect will develop.

G. Final Battle Reach “Final Battle Reach” is an effect that may be performed after “Battle Reach”, and is a reach effect in which an ally character battles with a strong enemy character. "Last Battle Reach" is more likely to be a big hit game than the case where the big hit judgment result is "losing", suggesting that a big hit game is likely to be played Function as. In addition, since it is easier to play a jackpot game when developing from "Battle Reach" to "Final Battle Reach" than when it was not developed from "Battle Reach" to "Final Battle Reach" “Reach” also functions as an effect suggesting that there is a higher possibility that a jackpot game will be played than “Battle Reach”. In addition, “Final Battle Reach” functions as an effect that suggests a failure because there is no effect that develops thereafter.

H. Story Reach “Story Reach” is an effect that may be performed after “Battle Reach” or after “Branch Production” where “Story Development Gimmick Production” is performed. Production. “Story Reach” is a performance that suggests that a jackpot game is more likely to be played because it is easier to perform a “hit” than when it is “losing” Function. In addition, since it is easier to play a jackpot game when developing from "battle reach" to "story reach" than when it did not develop from "battle reach" to "story reach", "story reach" , It also functions as an effect that suggests that there is a high possibility that a jackpot game will be played than "Battle Reach". Also, since it is easier to play a jackpot game when developing from "battle reach" to "story reach" than when developing from "battle reach" to "final battle reach", "story reach" It also functions as an effect that suggests that a big hit game is more likely to be played than "Final Battle Reach". In addition, “story reach” also functions as an effect that suggests a failure because there is no effect that develops thereafter.

I. Resurrection and development gimmick production “Resurrection and development gimmick production” is an effect that may be performed after a loss is suggested in “Battle Reach”. This is a notice effect that may appear on the display unit 50a simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. Since the “revival development gimmick production” may later develop into “story reach”, it functions as a production that suggests that “story reach” may be performed.

  Next, the production flow of main special figure fluctuation effects in the non-time-short state will be described. The effect control microcomputer 121 displays an effect image on the display unit 50a in each effect constituting the effect flow, and according to the display of the effect image, a light emission effect using the frame lamp 53 and the panel lamp 54, and a speaker. Sound production using 52 can be executed.

  As shown in FIG. 29 (A), in the special figure fluctuation effect of the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern of “final battle jackpot fluctuation” and “final battle loss fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. 29A, “normal fluctuation” → “reach” → “branch effect” → An effect flow composed of “battle reach” → “final battle reach” is executed. In addition, a “battle development gimmick effect” may be performed as a “branch effect” in these special figure variation effects.

  In addition, in the special figure fluctuation effect in which the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is “battle big hit fluctuation” and “battle loss fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. 29 (B), “normal fluctuation” → “reach” → “branch effect” → An effect flow composed of “Battle Reach” is executed. In addition, a “battle development gimmick effect” may be performed as a “branch effect” in these special figure variation effects. In addition, as will be described in detail later, in the “battle reach” in the special figure variation effect of “Battle Loss Variation”, a so-called gasse effect in which the “revival development gimmick effect” is performed halfway may be performed.

  In addition, in the special figure fluctuation effect in which the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is “battle / story jackpot fluctuation” and “battle / story loss fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. 29 (C), “normal fluctuation” → “reach” → “ A production flow consisting of “branch production” → “battle reach” → “story reach” is executed. In addition, “Battle development gimmick production” may be performed in “Branch production” in these special figure fluctuation productions, and “Restoration development gimmick production” in “Battle reach” in these special figure fluctuation productions. There is.

  In addition, in the special figure fluctuation effect in which the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is “story jackpot fluctuation” and “story loss fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. 29D, “normal fluctuation” → “reach” → “branch effect” → A production flow consisting of “story reach” is executed. In addition, a “story development gimmick effect” may be performed as a “branch effect” in these special figure change effects.

  In addition, in the special figure fluctuation effect in which the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is “Branch A Loss Fluctuation” and “Branch B Loss Fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. Is produced. Although the details will be described later, in the “branch effect” in these special figure change effects, a so-called “gasse effect” in which the “battle development gimmick effect” or “story development gimmick effect” is performed halfway may be performed.

  In addition, in the special figure fluctuation effect of the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern of “normal A loss fluctuation” and “normal B loss fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. Is executed.

  Next, the main effects executed in the special drawing variation effect in the non-time-short state will be specifically described. In addition, in the special figure variation effect described below, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are displayed together with the variation symbols of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3, but the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are not shown. There are things to do. Further, in the special figure variation effect described below, the hold icon HA is also displayed in parallel, but the illustration of the hold icon HA may be omitted.

  First, the “branch effect” will be specifically described. The production control microcomputer 121 has the special pattern 1 variation patterns of “final battle jackpot variation”, “final battle loss variation”, “battle jackpot variation”, “battle loss variation”, “battle / story jackpot variation”, “battle / Execute “branch production” after “reach” has been established in the special variation production of “Story Loss Fluctuation”, “Story Jackpot Fluctuation”, “Story Loss Fluctuation”, “Branch A Loss Fluctuation”, “Branch B Loss Fluctuation” Is possible. The “branch production” suggests the possibility of developing into “battle reach” or “story reach”.

  FIG. 30A to FIG. 32H are diagrams showing how the “branch effect” is performed. In “branch production”, “battle development gimmick production” or “story development gimmick production” is performed. As shown in FIG. 30A, when the left effect symbol EZ1 and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed in the same type of effect symbol and “reach” is established, the “branch effect” is started.

  When the “branch effect” is started, as shown in FIG. 30B, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are reduced and moved to the left center portion of the display unit 50a. After that, the special pattern 1 fluctuation patterns are “Final Battle Jackpot Fluctuation”, “Final Battle Loss Fluctuation”, “Battle Jackpot Fluctuation”, “Battle Loss Fluctuation”, “Battle / Story Jackpot Fluctuation”, “Battle / Story Loss Fluctuation” In this case, a “battle development gimmick production” is performed, and when the special figure 1 variation pattern is “story jackpot variation” and “story loss variation”, “story development gimmick production” is performed. On the other hand, when the special pattern 1 variation pattern is “branch A loss variation” or “branch B loss variation”, the “battle development gimmick production” or “story development gimmick production” is performed halfway.

  FIG. 31A to FIG. 31G are diagrams illustrating a state where a “battle development gimmick effect” is performed. Special Figure 1 When the fluctuation pattern is "Final Battle Jackpot Fluctuation", "Final Battle Loss Fluctuation", "Battle Jackpot Fluctuation", "Battle Loss Fluctuation", "Battle / Story Jackpot Fluctuation", "Battle / Story Loss Fluctuation" The “battle development gimmick effect” to be performed is composed of four stages of Step 1 to Step 4, and the effect proceeds in the order of Step 1 → Step 2 → Step 3 → Step 4. In the “Battle development gimmick effect” in Step 1, as shown in FIG. 31 (A), the lower panel simulating the lower panel movable body 56k on the display unit 50a above the lower panel movable body 56k in the standby position. The movable body image G10 is displayed blinking. The display of the lower panel movable body image G10 suggests that the lower panel movable body 56k may appear on the display unit 50a. That is, the display of the lower panel movable body image G10 functions as an effect that encourages the appearance of the lower panel movable body 56k.

  Further, in the “battle development gimmick effect” in Step 2, as shown in FIG. 31 (B), the under-board movable body 56k appears up to the position where it overlaps with the under-board movable body image G10, and then in FIG. 31 (C). As shown, the lower panel movable body 56k returns to the standby position. At this time, the lower panel movable body image G10 is erased, and the panel right movable body image G11 simulating the panel right movable body 57Rk is flashed and displayed on the left display unit 50a of the panel right movable body 57Rk in the standby state. Is done. The display of the panel right movable body image G11 suggests that the panel right movable body 57Rk may appear on the display unit 50a. That is, the display of the panel right movable body image G11 functions as an effect that encourages the appearance of the panel right movable body 57Rk.

  Further, in the “battle development gimmick effect” in Step 3, as shown in FIG. 31D, the panel right movable body 57Rk appears up to the position where it overlaps the panel right movable body image G11, and then, in FIG. 31E. As shown, the panel right movable body 57Rk returns to the standby position. At this time, the panel right movable body image G11 is erased, and the panel movable body image G12 simulating the panel movable body 55k is flashed and displayed on the display unit 50a below the panel movable body 55k in the standby state. The The display of the on-board movable body image G12 suggests that the on-board movable body 55k may appear on the display unit 50a. That is, the display of the on-board movable body image G12 functions as an effect that encourages the appearance of the on-board movable body 55k.

  Further, in the “battle development gimmick effect” in step 4, as shown in FIG. 31 (F), the on-board movable body 55k appears up to the position where it overlaps with the on-board movable body image G12, and then in FIG. 31 (G). As shown, the on-board movable body 55k returns to the standby position. At this time, the on-board movable body image G12 is erased, and the reach title image G13 (here, the character image of “battle reach”) is displayed on the display unit 50a. The display of the reach title image G13 suggests that it will develop into “battle reach”. Although the details will be described later, in the “battle development gimmick effect”, a light emission effect by the panel lamp 55SL, the panel lower lamp 56SL, the panel left lamp 57LSL and the panel right lamp 57RSL is also performed in parallel.

  On the other hand, the “battle development gimmick effect” performed when the special figure 1 variation pattern is “branch A loss variation” or “branch B loss variation” does not proceed to step 4 but proceeds only to step 2 or step 3. . In the “branch effect” in the special branch variation effect of “Branch A Loss Fluctuation”, a “battle development gimmick effect” that only proceeds to Step 3 is performed, and the “branch effect” in the special branch variation effect of “Branch B Loss Fluctuation” Then, “battle development gimmick production” that only proceeds to step 2 is performed. That is, the “battle development gimmick effect” that progresses only up to step 2 or step 3 functions as a so-called gasse effect. In addition, after progressing to step 2 or step 3, the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a manner that suggests a loss, and the “branch production” ends.

  32 (A) to 32 (H) are diagrams showing how the “story development gimmick effect” is performed. Special Figure 1 “Story development gimmick production” performed when the variation pattern is “story jackpot variation” or “story loss variation” is composed of five steps from Step 1 to Step 5; Step 1 → Step 2 → Step 3 The production proceeds in the order of step 4 → step 5. In the “story development gimmick effect” in Step 1, as shown in FIG. 32A, a swinging motion in which the movable board 56k below the board swings up and down is performed. It is suggested that the under-board movable body 56k may appear on the display unit 50a by the swinging operation of the under-board movable body 56k. That is, the swinging motion of the lower panel movable body 56k functions as an effect that encourages the appearance of the lower panel movable body 56k.

  Further, in the “story development gimmick effect” in Step 2, as shown in FIG. 32B, the under-board movable body 56k appears up to a predetermined appearance position on the display unit 50a, and the under-board movable body 56k that has appeared. The effect image G14a is displayed on the display section 50a around the. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 32 (C), a swinging motion in which the panel right movable body 57Rk swings left and right is performed in a state where the panel lower movable body 56k appears. It is suggested that the panel right movable body 57Rk may appear on the display unit 50a due to the swinging motion of the panel right movable body 57Rk. That is, the swinging motion of the panel right movable body 57Rk functions as an effect that depresses the appearance of the panel right movable body 57Rk.

Here, the position of the panel left movable body 57Lk in the standby state is the tenth position, the position where the panel left movable body 57Lk appears is the eleventh position, and the position where the panel left movable body 57Lk moves maximum is the first position. This will be described as 12 positions. The distance from the 10th position to the 11th position is 50 mm, and the distance from the 10th position to the 12th position is 30 mm. The swinging motion of the left panel movable body 57Lk is performed three reciprocations within 3000 ms. The panel left movable body 57Lk may move to the eleventh position after the swinging operation ends and returns to the tenth position.

  Next, the “final battle reach” will be specifically described. The effect control microcomputer 121 can execute the “final battle reach” after the “battle reach” in the special figure change effect in which the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is “final battle big hit fluctuation” and “final battle loss fluctuation”. In “Final Battle Reach”, it is suggested that a jackpot game may be played.

  FIG. 38A to FIG. 38C are diagrams illustrating how the “final battle reach” is performed. When the strong enemy character image G22 is displayed on the display unit 50a in “battle reach” (see FIG. 36E), “final battle reach” is performed.

  In “Final Battle Reach”, as shown in FIG. 38A, the teammate character image G20 and the strong enemy character image G22 are displayed on the display unit 50a, and a moving image in which the teammate character and the strong enemy character battle is displayed. Thereafter, when the special figure 1 variation pattern is “final battle jackpot variation”, as shown in FIG. 38 (B), the scene where the teammate character has won the strong enemy character is displayed on the display unit 50a, and the production symbol EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a manner suggesting a jackpot (here, “5, 5, 5”). On the other hand, when the special figure 1 variation pattern is “final battle loss variation”, as shown in FIG. 38C, a scene in which the ally character is defeated by the strong enemy character is displayed on the display unit 50a, and the production symbol EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 stop and display in a manner suggesting a loss (here, the reach loss eye of “5, 6.5”).

  Next, “story reach” will be described in detail. The production control microcomputer 121 can execute “story reach” after “battle reach” in the special figure fluctuation production where the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is “battle / story jackpot fluctuation” and “battle / story loss fluctuation”. Yes, in the special figure fluctuation effect in which the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is “story jackpot fluctuation” and “story loss fluctuation”, “story reach” can be executed after the “branch effect”. "Story reach" suggests the possibility of a big hit game.

  FIG. 39A to FIG. 39C are diagrams showing how “story reach” is performed. When the “story development gimmick production” of step 5 is performed in the “branch production” (see FIG. 32H), or the “board reach movable body” 55k, the board left movable body 57Lk and the board right movable body in the “battle reach”. When the “revival development gimmick effect” in which 57Rk appears on the display unit 50a is performed (see FIG. 37B), “story reach” is performed.

  In “Story Reach”, as shown in FIG. 39A, a teammate character image G20, a heroine character image G23, and a story title image G24 are displayed on the display unit 50a, and a video of meeting the teammate character and the heroine character is displayed. Is displayed. After that, when the special figure 1 variation pattern is “story jackpot variation”, the scene where the teammate character and the heroine character meet is displayed on the display unit 50a, and as shown in FIG. EZ2 and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a manner that suggests a jackpot (here, “5 · 5 · 5”). On the other hand, when the special figure 1 variation pattern is “story loss variation”, a scene in which the ally character and the heroine character cannot be met is displayed on the display unit 50a, and as shown in FIG. , EZ2 and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a manner suggesting a loss (here, “5, 6.5” reach loss).

  Here, the story title image G24 displayed on the display unit 50a at the start of “story reach” will be described. As described above, “story reach” is performed after “story development gimmick production” or “revival development gimmick production”. In the “story development gimmick production” and “resurrection development gimmick production”, a panel left movable body 57Lk provided with a logo lens body 57Lkl that imitates the characters “story” appears on the display unit 50a. On the other hand, the character image “story” is also included in the story title image G24. In other words, after the appearance of the logo lens body 57Lkl that imitates the characters of "Story", the character image of "Story" will be displayed, so "Story development gimmick production" or "Resurrection development gimmick production" and "Story It is easy to recall that “reach” is associated, and that “story reach” is developed by the appearance of the left panel movable body 57Lk.

<Consideration of First Embodiment>
Hereinafter, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 described in the first embodiment will be considered. First, the probability that a big hit game is played after the right board movable body 57Rk and the upper board movable body 55k appear in order, and the big hit game is played after the right board movable body 57Rk and the upper board movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. Consider the relationship between the probability of being caught. When the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear in order, there are cases where the panel right develops to “battle reach” and “story reach”. On the other hand, if the right panel movable body 57Rk and the upper panel movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially simultaneously, they always develop into “story reach” thereafter. In other words, since “story reach” is more likely to have a big hit game than “battle reach”, the right board movable body 57Rk and the onboard movable body 55k appear in sequence, and the right board movable body 57Rk and the board It can be said that the probability that the big hit game is performed is different when the upper movable body 55k appears simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. In the first embodiment, the jackpot game is greater when the right board movable body 57Rk and the upper board movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially simultaneously than when the right board movable body 57Rk and the upper board movable body 55k appear in sequence. The probability of being done is high.

  Next, the board left movable body 57Lk appears when the panel right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear in sequence, and the board when the panel right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. Consider the relationship between the appearance of the left movable body 57Lk. When the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear in order, the panel left movable body 57Lk may or may not appear. On the other hand, when the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially simultaneously, the panel left movable body 57Lk always appears. That is, when the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear in order, and when the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially simultaneously, the panel left movable body 57Lk It can be said that the probability of appearing is different. In the first embodiment, the board right movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k appear at the same time or substantially at the same time than the board right movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k appear in order. The probability that the left movable body 57Lk appears is high.

  Next, the relationship between the appearance of the left panel movable body 57Lk provided with the logo lens body 57Lkl and the jackpot game will be considered. When the board left movable body 57Lk appears in the “branch effect”, it develops to “story reach”. On the other hand, if the left panel movable body 57Lk does not appear in the “branch effect”, there are a case where it develops into “battle reach” and a case where it does not develop into “battle reach” or “story reach”. . In other words, since “story reach” is more likely to be a big hit game than “battle reach”, when the left panel movable body 57Lk provided with the logo lens body 57Lkl appeared and when it did not appear, It can be said that the probability of playing a jackpot game is different. In the first embodiment, the probability that a jackpot game is played is higher when the left board movable body 57Lk does not appear than when the board left movable body 57Lk does not appear.

  Next, the relationship between the appearance of the left panel movable body 57Lk and the development to “story reach” will be considered. When the left panel movable body 57Lk appears in the “branch effect”, it always develops to “story reach”. On the other hand, when the left panel movable body 57Lk does not appear in the “branch effect”, it may be developed into “battle reach” and then developed into “story reach” and may not be developed. That is, it can be said that the probability of developing to “story reach” is different between the case where the panel left movable body 57Lk appears and the case where the panel left movable body 57Lk does not appear. In the first embodiment, there is a higher probability of development to “story reach” when the left panel movable body 57Lk appears than when the left panel movable body 57Lk does not appear (development to “story reach”). easy).

  Next, when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the board right movable body 57Rk, the probability that a big hit game will be played and when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the standby state of the board right movable body 57Rk Consider the relationship between the probability of playing games. When the on-board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the right panel movable body 57Rk in the “branch effect”, it always develops to “story reach” thereafter. On the other hand, when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the standby state of the right panel movable body 57Rk in the “branch effect”, when it develops into “battle reach” and then develops into “story reach” There is. In other words, since “story reach” is more likely to have a big hit game than “battle reach”, when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the right board movable body 57Rk, the right board movable body 57Rk It can be said that the probability that the big hit game is performed is different from the case where the on-board movable body 55k appears in the standby state. In the first embodiment, the big hit game is when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the on-board movable body 57Rk than on the on-board movable body 55k in the standby state of the on-board movable body 57Rk. Is likely to occur.

  Next, the relationship between the appearance of the on-board movable body 55k and the jackpot game will be considered. When the on-board movable body 55k appears in the “branch effect”, it develops into “battle reach” or “story reach”. On the other hand, when the on-board movable body 55k does not appear in the “branch effect” (in the case of the gaze effect), the game is lost without developing into “battle reach” or “story reach”. In other words, since “Battle Reach” and “Story Reach” are highly likely to be a jackpot game, the probability that a jackpot game will be played is the same when the on-board movable body 55k appears and when it does not appear. It's different. In the first embodiment, when the on-board movable body 55k does not appear, the probability that the jackpot game is played is higher when it appears.

  Next, the probability that the on-board movable body 55k appears after the on-board movable body 55k is shaken, and the probability that the on-board movable body 55k appears after the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed. Consider the relationship. After the on-board movable body 55k is shaken in the “branch effect”, the on-board movable body 55k appears with a probability of about 73%. On the other hand, after the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed in the “branch effect”, the on-board movable body 55k appears with a probability of about 69% (see FIGS. 27 and 33). That is, it can be said that the probability that the on-board movable body 55k appears is different between when the on-board movable body 55k is shaken and when the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed. In the first embodiment, the probability that the on-board movable body 55k appears is higher when the on-board movable body 55k is swayed than when the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed.

  Next, the probability that both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear after one swinging operation of the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k, and the panel right movable body 57Rk and The relationship between the probability that both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k will appear after both the swing operations of the panel movable body 55k are performed will be considered. After one swinging motion of the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k is performed, both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear with a probability of about 73%. On the other hand, after both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k are shaken, both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear with a probability of about 70% (see FIG. 27, see FIG. 33). That is, when one swing operation of the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel top movable body 55k is performed, and when both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel top movable body 55k swing, It can be said that the right movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k have different probabilities of appearance. In the first embodiment, when one swing operation of the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k is performed, compared to when both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k swing. There is a higher probability that both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear.

  Next, the probability that a jackpot game will be performed when both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear after one swinging operation of the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k is performed. The probability that a jackpot game will be performed when both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear after the swing operation of both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k is performed, Consider the relationship. If both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after one swinging motion of the panel right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, the jackpot game has a probability of about 75%. Is done. On the other hand, when both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear after the swing operation of both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k is performed, there is a probability of about 86%. A jackpot game is played (see FIG. 27). That is, both the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k appear after one swinging operation of the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k is performed, and the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55Rk. It can be said that the probability that a big hit game is performed is different between the case where both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after both the swinging motions of the upper movable body 55k are performed. In the first embodiment, the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k are swung, and then the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k both appear more than the case where the panel right movable body 57Rk and the panel movable body 55k both appear. The probability that a big hit game is performed is higher when both the board right movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k appear after the swinging motions of both the movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k are performed.
