On the other hand, the state in which the VAT opening and closing member 15k blocks the second big winning opening 15 is also referred to as "closed state". Thus, the second big winning opening 15 is opened and closed by the operation of the VAT opening and closing member 15k. When the gaming ball wins the second big winning opening 15, a predetermined number (for example, 14) of gaming balls are paid out as a winning ball.

  Here, the second big winning device 15D will be described in detail with reference to FIG. Inside the second big winning device 15D is provided a gate-like second big winning opening sensor 15a that can detect the gaming ball entering the second big winning opening 15 and allow the gaming ball to pass downward. It is done.

  A specific area 16 and a nonspecific area 17 through which game balls can pass (enter) are provided in the downstream of the second large winning opening sensor 15a. The game balls having passed through the second big winning opening sensor 15a are distributed to the specific area 16 or the nonspecific area 17 by the distribution device 16D. The distribution device 16D includes a distribution member 16k formed of a substantially rectangular flat plate, and a distribution solenoid 16s that drives the distribution member 16k. The distribution member 16k is configured to be slidable to the left and right by the drive of the distribution solenoid 16s.

  When the distributing solenoid 16s is not energized, the distributing member 16k prevents the passage of the gaming ball to the specific area 16 in the first state (pass blocked state: the left end of the distributing member 16k in front view of FIG. 3A) Is located slightly to the right of the left end of the specific area 16, and the distribution member 16k is in a state of covering the specific area 16 immediately above it. When the sorting member 16k is in the first state, the gaming ball that has won the second large winning opening 15 can not pass the specific area 16 after passing the second large winning opening sensor 15a or it is extremely difficult. It is difficult and passes through the nonspecific area 17. The route of the gaming ball flowing from the second large winning opening 15 to the non-specific area 17 is referred to as a first route.

  On the other hand, when the distributing solenoid 16s is energized, the distributing member 16k is allowed to pass (enter) the specific area 16 of the gaming ball in the second state (passing allowed state: shaking in front view of FIG. 3B) The left end of the dividing member 16k is located slightly to the left of the right end of the specific area 16, and the distributing member 16k does not cover the specific area 16 directly above it, and is directly open on the specific area 16). When the distributing member 16k is in the second state, the gaming ball having won the second large winning opening 15 can easily pass through the specific area 16 after passing through the second large winning opening sensor 15a. The route of the gaming ball flowing from the second large winning opening 15 to the specific area 16 is referred to as a second route.

  In addition, basically, the distribution member 16k is held in the first state. That is, it can be said that the first state is the normal state of the distribution member 16k. Then, only in a predetermined round game (for example, 16R), the distribution solenoid 16s can be energized to change to the second state.

  In the specific area 16 and the nonspecific area 17, a specific area sensor 16a and a nonspecific area sensor 17a are provided which detect the gaming balls having passed (entered) the respective areas 16 and 17 and allow the gaming balls to pass downward. .

  Note that it is possible to provide only one of the first big prize device 14D and the second big prize device 15D within a range that does not interfere with the game.

  Also, at the lowermost part of the game area 6, two out ports 19 are provided for discharging the game balls, which have been driven into the game area 6, but did not win any of the winning openings, to the outside of the game area 6. There is. In addition, the game board 1 is provided with a board lamp 54 capable of emitting light.

  By the way, the game area 6 where the game balls can flow can be divided into a left game area (first game area) on the left side from the center in the left-right direction and a right game area (second game area) on the right. The operation mode of the handle 72k that causes the game balls to fire so that the game balls flow down the left game area is referred to as "left strike". On the other hand, the operation mode of the handle 72k that causes the game ball to fire so that the game ball flows down the right game area is referred to as "right-handed". In pachinko gaming machine PY1, when the game ball is thrown by hitting the left, the channel where the game ball can flow down is called the first channel R1, and when the game ball is fired by hitting the game ball, the game ball flows down. A possible flow path is called a second flow path R2. The first flow passage R1 and the second flow passage R2 are also configured by a large number of playing nails and the like.

  On the first flow passage R1, a first starting opening 11 and two general winning openings 10 are provided. Therefore, the player can aim for winning in the first start opening 11 or the general winning opening 10 by firing the gaming ball so as to flow down the first flow path R1 by hitting left. On the other hand, on the second flow passage R2, a second start opening 12, a gate 13, a first large winning opening 14, and a second large winning opening 15 are provided. Therefore, the player shoots the game ball so as to flow down the second flow path R2 by hitting the right, so that the passage of the gate 13, the second starting opening 12, the first big winning opening 14, or the second winning opening It is possible to aim for a winning in the big winning opening 15.

  In addition, the game ball which did not enter any winning opening (1st starting opening 11, 2nd starting opening 12, general winning opening 10, 1st big winning opening 14, and 2nd big winning opening 15), It is guided to the out port 19 and discharged. In addition, it is possible to appropriately set the number of winning balls by winning in each winning opening.

  In addition, indicators 8 are disposed on the lower left of the game area 6 formed on the front of the game board 1 (a part other than the game area 6). As shown in FIG. 4, a special figure 1 display 81a for variably displaying the special figure 1, a special figure 2 indicator 81b for variably displaying the special figure 2, and a common figure are variably displayed on the display 8 A common picture display 82 is included. In addition, special figure 1 reserve indicator 83a which displays special figure 1 reserve number which it mentions later (U1: the number where variable indication of special figure 1 with special figure 1 indicator 81a is reserve) which it mentions later, A special figure 2 reserve display 83b is included to display the special figure 2 reserve number described later (U2: the number of the special view 2 variable display by the special figure 2 display 81b is pending).

  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 to the first starting opening 11. Further, the variable display of the special view 2 is executed when the special view 2 lottery is performed triggered by the winning of the game ball to the second starting opening 12. In the following description, special drawing 1 and special drawing 2 are collectively called special drawing, and special drawing 1 lottery and special drawing 2 drawing are generically called special drawing drawing. The special view 1 display 81 a and the special view 2 display 81 b are collectively referred to as a special view display 81. Furthermore, the special view 1 reserve display 83 a and the special view 2 reserve display 83 b are collectively referred to as a special view reserve display 83.

  The variable display of the special drawing reports the result of the special drawing lottery. In the special view variable display, the special view is variably displayed and then stopped. The special view (stop special view, a special symbol derived and displayed as a display result of variable display) to be stopped and displayed is one special view selected from among a plurality of types of special views by special drawing lottery. When the stop special figure is a predetermined specific figure (special figure of a specific stop mode, ie, a big hit symbol), the special winning opening (first large winning opening 14 and second large winning opening 15) is opened. A jackpot game (an example of a special game) is played.

  The special view display 81 includes, for example, eight LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) arranged side by side, and displays a special view according to the result of the special view lottery according to the lighting mode. For example, when the result of the special figure lottery is a big hit (one of a plurality of types of big hits described later), the special figure display 81 is “□□ ■■ □□ ■■” (□: lighting, ■ : The jackpot symbol consisting of the lighting of the first, second, fifth and sixth LEDs from the left is displayed. In addition, when the result of the special drawing lottery is a loss, a lost design configured by lighting only the LED at the rightmost is displayed, such as the special drawing display 81 "■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ Do. In addition, the lighting mode of LED corresponding to the result of a special figure lottery is not limited, It can set suitably. Therefore, for example, all the LEDs may be turned off as a lost symbol.

  Further, in the variable display of the special view, the variable display of the special view is performed over a predetermined fluctuation time before the special view is stopped and displayed. The aspect of the variable display of the special view is, for example, the aspect in which each LED is lighted so that light repeatedly flows from the left to the right. In addition, the aspect of the variable display of a special figure is not specifically limited, If each LED is not stop display (lighting display in a specific aspect), you may set suitably that all LED blinks simultaneously.

  By the way, in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, when there is a winning (entering) of the gaming ball to the first starting opening 11 or the second starting opening 12, various random numbers (numerical information and judgment information for performing special drawing lottery etc. An example may be obtained. These various random numbers are temporarily stored in the below-mentioned special figure reservation storage unit 105 as special figure reservation. In the following, various random numbers acquired by winning (entering) the gaming ball to the first starting opening 11 are referred to as “special figure 1 related random numbers”, and the winning of the gaming ball to the second starting opening 12 The various random numbers acquired by (entering) are referred to as "special figure 2 related random numbers". Here, the special view 1 related random number is stored as the special view 1 reserve, in the special view 1 reserve storage unit 105 a in the special view reserve storage unit 105. On the other hand, the special figure 2 related random number is stored as the special figure 2 reserve, in the special figure 2 reserve storage unit 105 b in the special figure reserve storage unit 105. For the number of special figure 1 reservations that can be stored in the special view 1 reservation storage unit 105a (the special figure 1 reservation number) and the number of special view 2 reservations that can be stored in the special view 2 reservation storage unit 105b (the special figure 2 reservation number) The upper limit (for example, four) can be set. In the following, the special figure 1 reserve and the special figure 2 reserve are generically called "special figure reserve", and the special figure 1 reserve number and the special figure 2 reserve number are generically called "special figure reserve number". Also, the special figure 1 related random number and the special figure 2 related random number are generically called "special figure related random number".

  In pachinko gaming machine PY1, when the variable display of the special view is not performed immediately after the game ball has won the first start opening 11 or the second start opening 12, specifically, the variable display of the special view is under execution. Or, when there is a prize during the execution of the jackpot game, it is possible to reserve a variable display (or the right of the special figure lottery) of the special figure for the prize. The special view reserve stored in the special view reserve storage unit 105 is digested when it becomes possible to variably display the special view based on the special view reserve. That is, the term “subtraction of a special view reserve” means that a special view relation random number or the like corresponding to the special view reserve is determined, and variable display of the special view to show the determination result is performed.

  Then, the number of to-be- reserved special drawings is displayed on the special-characteristic hold display 83. Each of the special view 1 reserve display 83a and the special view 2 reserve indicator 83b is constituted of, for example, 4 LEDs, and displays the number of the special view reserve by lighting the LED for the number of the special view reserve. It is possible.

  Further, the variable display of the common drawing reports the result of the common drawing lottery. In the variable display of the common drawing, after the common drawing is variably displayed, the stop display is performed. The stop-displayed common drawing (stop-general drawing, common drawing derived and displayed as a display result of the variable display) is one common drawing selected from among a plurality of common drawings by the common drawing lottery.

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

3-1. Games related to popular figures First, the games related to popular figures will be described. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs a common drawing lottery when the launched gaming ball passes the gate 13. When the drawing drawing lottery is performed, variable drawing display of the drawing drawing (stop display after the fluctuation display is performed) is performed on the drawing drawing display 82. Here, there are a hit symbol and a lost symbol in the common view that is displayed in a stop. In addition, about the lost design of a common drawing, in order to distinguish with the lost design of the special drawing mentioned later, it is also called a "loss common drawing". When the hit symbol is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is executed, and the game relating to the passage of the gate 13 ends. On the other hand, when the loss popular map is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is not performed, and the game relating to the passage of the gate 13 ends. In addition, in the following, it is referred to as "establishment of the common drawing fluctuation start condition" that the gaming ball passes the gate 13 when the variable display of the common drawing or the auxiliary game is not performed.

  The pachinko gaming machine PY1 acquires the common drawing relationship random number by the establishment of the common drawing change start condition when performing such a series of games (normal drawing lottery, variable display of common drawing, auxiliary game). As shown in FIG. 8A, the common drawing related random numbers to be acquired include normal symbol random numbers. 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. Hit Determination The hit determination is a determination to decide whether or not to hit (whether to execute an auxiliary game) using one or more hit determination tables as shown in FIG. 9A. The hit determination table can be associated with the gaming state described later. That is, the gaming state includes the non-time saving state and the time saving state, and as a hit determination table, a hit determination table (non-time saving use hitting determination table) used in the non time saving state and a hit determination table (time saving use) used in the time saving state It is possible to distinguish from the hit determination table). In each hit determination table, the determination value (normal symbol random number value) of the normal symbol random number is distributed to the hit and the loss which is the result of the hit determination. Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 collates the acquired normal symbol random number with the hit determination table, and makes a hit determination whether it is a hit or a loss. Then, based on the result of the collision determination, the common drawing fluctuation pattern determination for performing variable display of the common drawing is performed. Basically, when the result of the hit determination is a hit, the hit symbol is stopped and displayed in a variable display of a common figure. On the other hand, when the result of the collision determination is a loss, basically, the lost spread is stopped and displayed in the variable display of the spread. In addition, it is possible to appropriately change the winning probability of the win.

3-1-2. The common drawing fluctuation pattern judgment is a judgment for determining the common drawing fluctuation pattern using one or a plurality of common drawing fluctuation pattern determination tables as shown in FIG. 9 (B). The common drawing fluctuation pattern is identification information on predetermined matters concerning variable display of common drawing such as common drawing fluctuation time.

  The common drawing fluctuation pattern determination table can be associated with the gaming state. That is, as a common drawing fluctuation pattern determination table, a common drawing fluctuation pattern judgment table (non-short time common drawing fluctuation pattern judgment table) used in the non-time-short state, and a common drawing fluctuation pattern judgment table ( It is possible to distinguish from the time-shortened chart fluctuation pattern determination table).

  In each of the common drawing fluctuation pattern determination tables, one common drawing fluctuation pattern, which is the result of the common drawing fluctuation pattern determination, is stored for each of the common drawing to be stopped. That is, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 can make the spread map fluctuation time different between the non-time-short state and the time-short state. For example, in the non-time-short state, the variable display of the common drawing in the case of stopping and displaying the common drawing of the lost (the common drawing) is determined to the common drawing fluctuation pattern in which the common drawing fluctuation time is 30 seconds, for example. For the variable display of the common drawing in the case of stop display of the common drawing, it is determined that the common drawing fluctuation pattern in which the common drawing fluctuation time is 30 seconds, for example. Moreover, in the time saving state, the variable display of the common drawing in the case of stopping and displaying the lost common drawing is determined as the common drawing fluctuation pattern in which the common drawing fluctuation time is 5 seconds, for example. For the variable display of the figure, a common drawing fluctuation pattern in which the common drawing fluctuation time is 5 seconds, for example, is determined. The variable display of the common drawing of the common drawing fluctuation time associated with the common drawing fluctuation pattern determined by this determination is performed by the common drawing display 82. In addition, it is possible to appropriately change these common map fluctuation times. In this manner, by performing the hit determination and the common drawing fluctuation pattern judgment, variable display of the common drawing is performed on the common drawing display 82.

3-1-3. Auxiliary game The auxiliary game is a variable display of a common drawing, and is executed when a hit symbol is displayed as a stop (derived) as a display result (a result of a common drawing lottery).

  The auxiliary game includes various elements such as the elements constituting the auxiliary game (auxiliary game components), that is, the number of times the electric chew 12D opens and the opening time for each opening. And each of these elements is matched with the game state. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 controls an auxiliary game 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. Auxiliary game components are stored in each of the auxiliary game control tables. Further, the number of times of opening and the opening time of each of these elements can be changed as appropriate.

  The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can make the open time of the electric chow 12D different between the auxiliary game in the non-time-shortened state and the auxiliary game in the time-shortened state. For example, in the auxiliary game in the non-short time state, the electric chew 12D is opened only for the first opening time (a time (for example, 0.08 seconds) in which it is difficult to win the gaming ball in the electric chew 12D). In addition, below, the thing of the auxiliary | assistant game in a non-time saving state is also called "a short opening auxiliary | assistant game." In addition, in the auxiliary game in the time saving state, the electric Chu 12D only for a second opening time (a time (for example, 3.00 seconds) in which it is easy to win the gaming ball in the electric Chu 12D) longer than the first opening time. Open. In addition, the thing of the auxiliary | assistant game in time-saving state is also called "a long open | release auxiliary | assistant game" below.

3-2. Next, the game related to the special drawing will be described. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs a special figure 1 lottery when the fired game ball wins the first start hole 11. When the special figure 1 lottery is performed, the special figure 1 display 81a performs variable display of the special figure 1 (display of variation and then stop display) to notify the result of the special figure 1 lottery. Here, there are a big hit symbol and a lost symbol in the special view 1 which is stopped and displayed. That is, there are a big hit and a loss in the result of the special figure 1 lottery. 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 ended. 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 ended.

  Similarly, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs a special figure 2 lottery when the fired game ball wins the second starting opening 12. When the special figure 2 lottery is performed, the special figure 2 display 81b performs variable display of the special figure 2 (display of change and then stop display) to notify the result of the special figure 2 lottery. Here, there are a big hit symbol and a lost symbol in the special view 2 which is stopped and displayed. That is, there are a jackpot and a loss in the result of the special figure 2 lottery. 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 ended. 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 ended.

  In the following, the game ball winning in the first start hole 11 is referred to as "establishment of the first start condition" and the game ball wins in the second start aperture 12 is satisfied "the establishment of the second start condition" It is said. In addition, “satisfaction of the first start condition” and “satisfaction of the second start condition” are collectively referred to as “satisfaction of the start condition”. Moreover, about the lost design of a special design, in order to distinguish from the lost design of the above-mentioned common drawing, it is also called a "lost special drawing".

  The pachinko gaming machine PY1 acquires a special drawing relationship random number by the establishment of the start condition when performing such a series of games (special drawing lottery, special display variable display, big hit game, setting of gaming state), Perform various judgments on random numbers. As shown in FIG. 8 (B), there are special symbol random numbers (big hit random numbers), a big hit symbol type random number, a reach random number, and a special feature fluctuation pattern random number as the special feature related random numbers to be acquired. The special symbol random number is a random number for making a jackpot determination. The jackpot symbol type random number is a random number for making a jackpot symbol type determination. The reach random number is a random number for performing reach determination. The special figure variation pattern random number is a random number for performing the variation pattern determination of the special symbol. Each random number has an appropriate range. Note that random numbers may be referred to as determination information.

3-2-1. Jackpot Determination The jackpot determination is a determination to determine whether or not a jackpot (whether a jackpot game is to be executed) using one or more jackpot determination tables as shown in FIG. 10A. The gaming state includes a normal probability state and a high probability state, and the jackpot determination table is associated with the normal probability state or the high probability state. That is, as the jackpot determination table, the jackpot determination table (normal probability jackpot determination table) used in the normal probability state and the jackpot determination table (high probability jackpot determination table) used in the high probability state may be distinguished. It is possible.

  In each jackpot determination table, the judgment value (special symbol random number value) of the special symbol random number is distributed to the jackpot and the loss which is the result of the jackpot determination. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 collates the acquired special symbol random number with the jackpot determination table to determine whether it is a jackpot or a loss. As shown in FIG. 10A, the special symbol random number judgment value in which the jackpot judgment table for high probability is judged to be a jackpot is set more than the jackpot judgment table for normal probability. In addition, it is possible to appropriately change the winning probability of the jackpot.

3-2-2. Big hit symbol type determination If the result of the big hit decision is a big hit, the type of big hit symbol (big hit symbol type using one or more big hit symbol type judgment tables as shown in FIG. 10 (B) It is a judgment to decide). For each jackpot symbol type, it is possible to associate jackpot components composed of the contents of the jackpot, in other words, the game benefits provided to the player, and the like.

  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 starting opening for which the jackpot symbol type determination is caused (the jackpot symbol type determination has been generated) Is possible. That is, as the big hit symbol type determination table, the big hit symbol type determination table (first big hit symbol type determination table) used when performing the variable display of the special figure 1 and the big hit used when performing the variable display of the special figure 2 It is possible to distinguish from 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 judgment value (jackpot symbol type random value) of jackpot symbol type random number is distributed to jackpot symbol type which is the result of jackpot symbol type determination There is. Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 checks the acquired jackpot symbol type random number on the jackpot symbol type determination table to determine the type of jackpot symbol. Then, in the first big hit symbol type determination table and the second big hit symbol type determination table, the big hit symbol type random number values are appropriately distributed to various big hit symbols. Moreover, it is possible to change suitably about the distribution ratio of big hit symbol classification. In addition, 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 by the jackpot symbol type determination for the special figure 1 is 50% for the jackpot symbol X and 50% for the jackpot symbol Y. It is possible to make the jackpot symbol Z 100% of the distribution ratio of the jackpot symbol type by the jackpot symbol type determination of. In this way, the special hit 1 lottery performed with the game ball in the first start opening 11 and the special view 2 lottery performed with the game ball received in the second start opening 12 It is possible to make the fractions different.

3-2-3. Reach determination In the reach determination, when the result of the big hit determination is a loss, it is determined whether or not to generate reach in the special figure fluctuation effect described later using one or more reach determination tables as shown in FIG. 10 (C) It is a determination to determine the

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

  In each reach determination table, the reach random number determination values (reach random numbers) are distributed to the reach determination results “reach (generate reach)” and “no reach (do not generate reach)”. . Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 collates the acquired reach random number with the reach determination table, and determines whether there is reach or no reach (whether or not to cause reach). As shown in FIG. 10C, it is possible to make the number of reach random numbers determined to be “reached (to generate reach)” different between the non-time-shortening reach determination table and the time-shortening reach determination table. It is. In addition, in the following, the thing of "with reach (to generate reach)" performed on the premise that the result of the big hit judgment is "loss" is called "with reach loss", and "no reach (does not cause reach)" ) May be referred to as "no reach lost".

3-2-4. Special figure fluctuation Special figure fluctuation pattern judgment, using the fluctuation pattern judgment table (special figure fluctuation pattern judgment table) of one or more special symbols as shown in Figure 11-Figure 12, the fluctuation pattern of the variable indication of the special figure It is a determination for determining (special figure fluctuation pattern), and the result of the big hit determination is performed in any case of the big hit and the loss. The special figure fluctuation pattern is identification information for identifying predetermined matters related to the special figure fluctuation time, the flow of the special figure fluctuation effect to be described later (content of the effect), and the like. In addition, it is possible to include identification information on the result of the jackpot determination and the result of the reach determination, in addition to the special map change time and the special process change flow and the effect flow (effect contents of the special view change effect). As the special figure fluctuation pattern, it is possible to use a plurality of kinds of special figure fluctuation patterns each having different identification information, and the number thereof can be appropriately changed.

  The special figure fluctuation pattern determination table can be associated with the type of the special symbol that is subject to variable display to be determined, in other words, the type of starting opening at which the winning due to the special figure fluctuation pattern determination is performed. That is, as the special figure fluctuation pattern determination table, the special view fluctuation pattern determination table (special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table: FIG. 11) used when performing the variable display of the special figure 1 and the variable display of the special figure 2 are performed. It is possible to distinguish from the special figure fluctuation pattern determination table (special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table: FIG. 12) used at the time.

  And, each special figure fluctuation pattern decision table, it is possible to associate also game state. That is, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table includes the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table (special pattern 1 non-time-saving special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table) used in the non-time-short state and the special figure 1 used in the time-short state It is possible to distinguish from the variation pattern determination table (time chart for special figure 1 variation pattern determination table). On the other hand, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table is also used similarly to the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table (non-time-saving special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table) used in the non-time-short state and in the time-short state It is possible to distinguish from the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern judgment table (time chart for special figure 2 fluctuation pattern judgment table).

  Further, each special view fluctuation pattern determination table associated with the gaming state can be further associated with the jackpot determination result, the jackpot symbol type determination result or the reach determination result. That is, the non-time-saving special figure 1 variation pattern determination table and the non-time-shorting special figure 2 variation pattern determination table respectively include one for large hit (for each big hit symbol type), one for reach loss, and one for reach loss. Similarly, the time-saving special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table and the time-shorting special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table each include a large hit (for each large hit symbol type), a reach presence loss, a no reach loss, and the like.

  Furthermore, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for each non-reach loss can be associated with the number of special figure reservations. For example, it is used when the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for reach without loss used when the special figure 1 reserve number (U1) is 0-2 and when the special figure 1 reserve number (U1) is 3-4. It is possible to distinguish from a special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for a no reach loss. In addition, it is possible to associate the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern decision table for each non-reach loss with the special figure reservation number. For example, it is used when the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for reach without loss used when the special figure 2 reserve number (U2) is 0 to 2 and when the special figure 2 reserve number (U2) is 3 to 4 It is possible to distinguish between a special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for a no reach loss.

  The special view display 81 variably displays a special view of the special view change time according to the special view change pattern determined in each special view change pattern determination. Then, when the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed as the display result (the result of the special drawing lottery) in the variable display of the special drawing, the variable display of the next special drawing is not performed immediately, and the big hit game is subsequently executed. Ru.

  Moreover, it is possible to link | relate to the production | presentation flow of special figure fluctuation presentation as shown to the 2nd column from the right of the table | surface of FIG.

  In addition, as shown in the rightmost column of the table | surface of FIG. 11-12, about a special figure fluctuation pattern, a special figure (big hit judgment result) and the special contents of the special figure fluctuation production etc. is there. For example, the special figure fluctuation pattern relating to the jackpot is referred to as the "big hit fluctuation". On the other hand, the special pattern fluctuation pattern in which SP reach, which is a kind of reach, is performed among the lose with reach is called “SP loss fluctuation”, and in the loss with reach, the L reach which is a kind of reach is performed The figure variation pattern is "L lost variation", among the presence of reach, the figure of the special figure variation pattern where the special figure variation effect is finished with N reach which is a kind of reach is "N loss variation", without reach The special pattern fluctuation pattern is called "normal loss fluctuation".

3-2-5. Pre-reading Determination The 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 drawing relation random numbers. For the pre-reading determination, for example, it is determined whether or not the special symbol random number is determined to be the big hit in the big hit determination, the big hit symbol type random number is the determination of which big hit symbol type is determined in the big hit symbol type determination, For example, it may be determined which special pattern fluctuation pattern is determined as the special pattern fluctuation pattern determination. The pre-reading determination table can be associated with the type of starting opening according to the starting winning combination. That is, as a pre-reading determination table, a pre-reading determination table (first pre-reading determination table) when winning in the first starting opening 11, and a pre-reading determination table (second pre-reading determination table) when winning in the second starting opening 12 , Can be distinguished.

  Also, the pre-read determination table can be associated with the gaming state. That is, as the pre-reading determination table, the pre-reading determination table (non-time-shortening pre-reading determination table) used in the non-time-short state and the pre-reading determination table (time-saving pre-reading determination table) used in the time-short state It is possible.

  That is, in the prefetch determination table, a first prefetch determination table used in the non-time-short state, a first prefetch determination table used in the time-short state, and a second prefetch determination table used in the non-time-short state It is possible to distinguish between the second pre-reading determination table used in the time saving state and the second pre-reading determination table. Note that what judgment is included in the pre-reading judgment can be changed as appropriate.

3-3. Jackpot game Next, the jackpot game will be described. In the jackpot game, a plurality of round games involving opening and closing of the big winning opening (the first big winning opening 14 or the second big winning opening 15), and from the start of the big hit game to the start of the first round game It includes an opening (also referred to as OP) and an ending (also referred to as ED) from the end of the last round game to 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 and ED. In addition, the round game of the predetermined number of times (predetermined order) is only called "round" below. For example, the first round game is called "one round (1R)", and the tenth round game is called "10 round (10R)".

  The elements constituting such a big hit game (big hit game components), the number of round games, the number of opening of the big winning opening (first big winning opening 14 or the second big winning opening 15) in each round game, Type and opening time (opening pattern) of big winning opening where each opening takes place, time to close until next opening (closing time), opening time (opening time), ending time (ending time), etc. are included. ing. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 controls the jackpot game using one or more jackpot game control tables as shown in FIG. 14 after the stop display of the special view. 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 jackpot games.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the round game in which the first large winning opening 14 opens up to 29.5 seconds from 1R to 15R, or the first large winning opening 14 up to 0.1 seconds. A round game to open is performed. And in the 16R (final round), the round game in which the second large winning opening 15 opens up to 29.5 seconds, or the round game in which the second large winning opening 15 opens up to 0.1 seconds, To be done. In each round game, when a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls are detected by the large winning opening sensor, even before the maximum opening time of the large winning openings 14 and 15 elapses, End the round game.

  In addition, the number and time of each element can be changed as appropriate. It is also possible to play the jackpot game using both the first large winning opening 14 and the second large winning opening 15 or only one of them.

  Here, the specific area 16 will be described in detail. The specific area 16 is in the closed state where it is impossible to win and the open state where it is possible to win by the distribution member 16k, so the operation mode of the distribution member 16k can be said as the open / close mode of the specific area 16. In the following, the operation mode of the distribution member 16k is also referred to as "opening / closing mode of the specific area 16". Thus, although the distributing member 16k is controlled in a fixed operating mode (the specific area 16 is a fixed opening and closing mode), a fixed operating mode of the distributing member 16k (a fixed opening and closing mode of the specific area 16); In combination with the opening / closing mode of the second big winning opening 15 in the jackpot game, the difficulty (easiness) of entering the gaming ball into the specific area 16 in the jackpot game is set. In the following, the fact that the specific area 16 is 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 winning opening, and the distribution member 16k is controlled to the second state (FIG. 3 (B)). Therefore, in the round game in which the second big winning opening 15 opens up to 29.5 seconds, the opening time and timing of the second big winning opening 15 and the time controlled to the second state of the distributing member 16k and From the relationship with the timing, it is easy for the game ball to pass through the specific area 16 (to make the game ball enter the specific area 16). On the other hand, in a round game in which the second large winning opening 15 is opened for a maximum of 0.1 seconds, the opening time and timing of the second large winning opening 15, and the time controlled to the second state of the distributing member 16k and Because of the relationship with timing, it is almost impossible (difficult) for the game ball to pass through the specific area 16 (to make the game ball enter the specific area 16). Thus, for the jackpot game, the VAT opening / closing member with the first opening pattern (V long opening pattern) that facilitates the passage (hereinafter also referred to as "V passage") of the specific area 16 of the gaming ball during the jackpot game. The VAT opening and closing member 15k and the distributing member 16k operate with the jackpot game in which the 15k and the distributing member 16k operate, and the second opening pattern (V short opening pattern) in which passage of the game ball to the specific area 16 is impossible or difficult. It is possible to perform a jackpot game. Thus, the jackpot game in which the VAT opening / closing member 15k and the distributing member 16k operate in the V long opening pattern is referred to as "V long jackpot". On the other hand, a jackpot game in which the VAT opening / closing member 15k and the distributing member 16k operate in the V short open pattern is referred to as "V short jackpot".

3-4. Game State Next, the game state will be described. Pachinko gaming machines PY1 are, as shown in FIG. 15, "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 " It is possible to make it into any game state of "the jackpot game state". In addition, "low probability low base gaming state""low probability low base state", "low probability high base gaming state""low probability high base state", "high probability low base gaming state""high probability "Low base state" and "high probability high base gaming state" can be abbreviated as "high probability high base state". As a state constituting the gaming state, there are a state relating to the probability of being judged as a "big hit" in the big hit determination, and a state relating to the ease of opening the electric chew 12D. The former includes a normal probability state and a high probability state. On the other hand, the latter includes a non-time-short state and a time-short state.

  The normal probability state is set in the “low probability low base gaming state” or the “low probability high base gaming state”, and is a state in which the probability that it is determined to be a big hit in the big hit determination is a normal probability. The high probability state is set in the “high probability low base gaming state” or the “high probability high base gaming state”, and is a state in which the probability of being judged as a jackpot by jackpot determination is a high probability 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 the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is powered on for the first time, the normal probability state is set. Then, by winning the jackpot, it is possible to switch from the normal probability state to the high probability state. For example, it is possible to switch to the high probability state by the game ball passing through the specific area 16 in the jackpot game. It is also possible to switch to the high probability state depending on the type of jackpot symbol. The high probability state can be switched from the high probability state to the normal probability state by performing the jackpot determination a predetermined number of times without winning the jackpot, or winning the next jackpot.

  The non-short time state is set in the "low probability low base gaming state", the "high probability low base gaming state" or the "big hit gaming state". The time saving state is set in the “low probability high base gaming state” or “high probability high base gaming state”, and the gaming state in which the open time of the electric chew 12D in one auxiliary game tends to be longer than the non time saving 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 tube 12D in the non-short time state. Also, in the time saving state, the special figure fluctuation pattern determination is performed using the special figure fluctuation pattern determination table that is selected such that the selection of the special figure fluctuation pattern with a short special figure fluctuation time is greater than in the non-short time state. It is also possible to do it (see FIGS. 11 to 12). As a result, in the time saving state, the pace of the special figure reserve is increased, and a valid winning to the starting opening (a prize that can be stored as the special figure reserve) is easily generated. Therefore, it is possible to aim for a jackpot under the progress of a smooth game.

  In addition, the time saving state can easily make the common drawing fluctuation time shorter than the non-time saving state. For example, in the short time state, a spread time (5 seconds) shorter than the spread time (30 seconds) determined in the non-short state is determined. Therefore, in the time saving state, the number of times the common drawing lottery is executed per unit time is more.

  In addition, the time saving state can be more easily determined as a hit in the hit determination than in the non-time saving state. For example, in the time saving state, the hit is determined with a probability (eg, 59936/65536) higher than the probability (eg, 6600/65536) determined to be a hit in the non-time short state. Therefore, in the time saving state, the number of times it is determined to be a hit in the hit determination per unit time is more.

  As described above, in the time saving state, the open time of the electric chow 12D per unit time is longer than that in the non-time saving state, and the gaming ball is more likely to win frequently to the second starting opening 12. As a result, the base which is the ratio of the number of winning balls to the number of firing balls becomes high. Therefore, in the high base state, it is possible to aim for a jackpot winning without greatly reducing the number of gaming balls possessed. Therefore, it can be said that the time saving state is more advantageous to the player than the non-time saving state.

  When the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is powered on for the first time, the non-short time state is set. Then, for example, the time saving state can be set by winning the jackpot. The time saving state can be changed from the time saving state to the non-time saving state by performing the jackpot determination a predetermined number of times without winning the jackpot, or winning the next jackpot.

  In the time saving state, compared to the non-time saving state, it is easy to win a hit, the spread map fluctuation time is easily shortened, and the open time of the electric chew 12D in one auxiliary game is likely to be long. The game is set to the player in an advantageous manner in three points with respect to the game according to the common drawing. However, points set to be advantageous to the player may be part of these.

  The gaming state after the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is powered on for the first time is the "low probability low base gaming state" in which the normal probability state and the non-short time state are set. This gaming state is also referred to as "normal gaming state". In the "big hit gaming state", since the hit determination is performed but the big hit determination is not performed, the non-short time state is set along with the start of the big hit game. Further, with regard to the gaming state, it is possible to use all or only a part of the gaming states described above.

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 effect mode is a division of the effect (or an upper conceptual attribute). The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can set a customer waiting effect mode, a normal effect mode, a probability change effect mode, a time reduction effect mode, and a jackpot effect mode as an effect mode.

  In the customer waiting effect mode, special figure fluctuation 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" This is an effect mode that can be set when there is no, and in a standby state in which the special image variation effect is not 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 for introducing the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is displayed on the display unit 50a. When the normal button 40 is operated while the customer waiting demonstration moving image G100 is displayed, as shown in FIG. 16 (A-2), a setting screen G101 for setting for the effects of the pachinko gaming machine PY1. Is displayed. The settings relating to the effect include volume setting of the sound output from the speaker 52, brightness setting of the display unit 50a (“light amount setting”), frequency setting of the effect to be performed (“effect setting”), and the like.

  The normal effect mode can be set when the special figure fluctuation effect is being performed in the "low probability low base gaming state" or the "high probability low base gaming state", and is an effect mode indicating that it is a non-time-saving state is there. In the normal effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B-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 16 (B-2), a second normal effect mode in which a background image representing the scenery of a mountain in the evening (the background image for ordinary evening G103) is displayed on the display 50a as shown in FIG. 16 (B-2); As shown in -3), there is a third normal effect mode in which a background image (Night normal background image G104) representing the view of a mountain at night is displayed on the display unit 50a; It can be switched as one condition that one or more special image variation effects are performed. Furthermore, in each of the first to third normal rendering modes, there are a normal front stage rendering mode before reaching reach and a normal rear stage rendering mode after reaching reach in the special figure fluctuation presentation. In the normal front effect 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, but in the normal rear effect mode, the type is reach. A dedicated background image is displayed. Also, a special effect mode may be provided which is set only in the "high probability low base gaming state".

  The probability change effect mode is an effect mode that can be set when the special figure change effect is performed in the “high probability and high base gaming state”, and is an effect mode indicating that the state is a high probability state and a short time state. In the probability variation effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B-4), a background image (positive variation background image G105) representing space is displayed on the display unit 50a. Furthermore, in the special variation variation production mode, there are a second variation production mode before the reach is established and a second variation production mode after the reach is established in the special figure variation presentation. Although the background image for definite variation G105 is displayed on the display unit 50a in the first stage effect mode, the dedicated background image corresponding to the type of reach is displayed in the second stage effect mode.

  The time-saving effect mode is an effect mode that can be set when the special figure variation effect is being performed in the "low probability high base gaming state", and is an effect mode indicating that it is a normal probability state and a time-saving state. In the time-saving effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B-5), a background image (time-saving background image G106) representing the sky is displayed on the display unit 50a. Furthermore, in the time reduction rendering mode, there are a time reduction preceding rendering mode before reaching reach and a time shortening later rendering mode after reaching. In the short front-side effect mode, the time-shortening background image G106 is displayed on the display unit 50a. However, in the time-short rear-side effect mode, a dedicated background image according 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 performed in the "jackpot game state", and is an effect mode that indicates that the jackpot game is being performed. In the jackpot effect mode, for example, during the opening in the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16 (C-1), in the display unit 50a, the opening image G107 that suggests the start of the jackpot game and the right prompting “right strike” A jackpot opening effect in which the beating image G108 is displayed is performed. During the rounds in the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16 (C-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 paid out. The round effect is performed. During the ending in the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16 (C-3), in the display unit 50a, suggesting the ending image G111 suggesting the effect mode set after the jackpot game and the number of total prize balls paid out A jackpot ending effect is performed in which a winning prize ball number image G112 is displayed.

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

4-2. Special figure fluctuation production Next, special figure fluctuation production (also simply referred to as "variation production") will be described. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 starts the variable display of the special drawing, the special drawing fluctuation pattern and the special drawing lottery result (big hit judgment result, big hit symbol type judgment result, reach judgment result, and The special figure fluctuation presentation is executed based on the special figure fluctuation pattern determination result) and the like. In the special figure change effect, variable display of the effect pattern is performed on the predetermined background image in the display unit 50a. The effect pattern is composed of, for example, 1 to 9 numeral symbols. In the effect pattern variation display, the effect pattern varies with the start of the variable display of the special figure, and the effect pattern with the end of the variable display of the special figure Will stop. That is, after the special view fluctuation time and the fluctuation display of the effect pattern are performed, the fluctuation is stopped, and the stop display (full stop display) of the effect pattern is performed. Then, the result of the special drawing lottery is notified by the stop display of the effect symbol.

  In addition, in the special figure fluctuation production, in addition to the fluctuation display of production design, various such as image display 50, speaker 52, frame lamp 53, board lamp 54, movable devices 55, 56, 58, normal button 40, special button 41 etc. It is possible to perform other renderings using a variety of rendering devices. In this case, it is possible to continue performing other effects even after the stop display of the effect symbols.

4-2-1. In the display portion 50a of the image display device 50, as shown in FIG. 17A, the left portion, the center, and the right side are obtained by dividing the display portion 50a into three in the horizontal direction substantially equally. It is possible to provide a symbol area 50b1, a middle effect pattern area 50b2, and a right effect pattern area 50b3. The left effect pattern area 50b1 is an area for displaying the left effect pattern EZ1 at the time of the stop display of the effect pattern in the special figure variation effect. Similarly, the middle effect pattern area 50b2 and the right effect pattern area 50b3 are areas for displaying the middle effect pattern EZ2 and the right effect pattern EZ3.

  Moreover, as shown to FIG. 17 (A), it is possible to provide the small symbol area | region 50c in one division of the left end (upper left corner) of the upper end part of the display part 50a. The small symbol area 50c is an area in which the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are variably displayed when the variable display of the special figure is performed. The small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are, for example, configured by numeral symbols of 1 to 9.

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

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

  When the variable display of the special view is started, for example, as shown in FIG. 17A, in the display unit 50a, the left effect symbol EZ1, the middle effect symbol EZ2, and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed, The left small symbol KZ1, the middle small symbol KZ2 and the right small symbol KZ3 are stopped and displayed, and the variable display of the special view is not performed, and from the state of waiting for the variable display of the special view, FIG. As shown in the figure, at the same time as the start, the variable display of the rendering symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is started, and the variable display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is started. In addition, "(down)" in FIG. 17 has shown that the change display of a symbol is in process. And, when the special view fluctuation pattern of the variable display of this special view is, for example, “normal loss change”, as shown in FIG. 17 (C-1), the left production design EZ1 and the right production design EZ3 are different After temporary stop in the stop mode, as shown in FIG. 17 (D), the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 stop display in the stop mode (so-called loose eyes) suggesting a loss. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also simultaneously displayed 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, in the case of the special figure fluctuation pattern with reach such as “N lost fluctuation”, for example, as shown in FIG. 17 (C-2), in the special figure fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special figure, the left presentation symbol EZ1 And the right effect pattern EZ3 are temporarily stopped in the same stop mode (the so-called reach eye), and the reach is established. At this time, the fluctuation display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 is continuously performed, and the reach effect according to the special pattern fluctuation pattern is performed. In addition, it is possible to change suitably the stop order and stop mode of production | design pattern EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3.

4-2-3. N reach Pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform N reach when reach is established in normal fluctuation. The N reach is an effect that suggests that the result of the jackpot determination may have been a "big hit", and functions as a effect for making a player expect a jackpot.

  In the N reach, as shown in FIG. 18A, the state in which the reach is established is maintained for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds), and as shown in FIG. 18B, the fluctuation speed of the middle effect pattern EZ2 gradually Slow down. Then, when the special view fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special view is, for example, “N loss change”, as shown in FIG. 18 (C-1), the rendering is performed in the stop mode (so-called reach close eyes) suggesting reach loss. The symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 stop display. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also simultaneously displayed in a stop mode that suggests a reach loss. There are a plurality of types of stop modes that indicate reach loss, such as “7 · 6 · 7” and “5 · 3 · 5”, where the left and right symbols are the same and the symbols in the middle are different from the left and right symbols. On the other hand, when the special view fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special view is, for example, “N jackpot fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. 18 (C-2), stop in the stop mode (so-called Zoro eyes) that suggests a big hit indicate. There are a plurality of types of stop modes that indicate the jackpot, such as “7 · 7 · 7” and “2 · 2 · 2”, and the like. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also displayed in a stop at the same time in a stop mode that suggests a big hit. In addition, the content of the effect of N reach is not limited to that the middle effect pattern EZ2 is gradually decelerated, and can be appropriately changed or added.

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 jackpot determination result is “big hit” is higher than the N reach, and functions as an effect for making the player expect a jackpot.

  In the SP reach, as shown in FIG. 19A, for example, a background image (SP reach background image G113) for SP reach is displayed on the display unit 50a after N reach, and the SP at the center of the display unit 50a. An image (SP reach start title image) G1 indicating that the reach has been started is displayed. After that, as shown in FIG. 19 (B), an effect for SP reach only (for example, battle effect) is performed. Then, when the final phase of the SP reach-only effect is reached, as shown in FIG. 19 (C-1), the special figure fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “SP jackpot fluctuation”. At 50a, an effect that suggests a big hit (for example, an indication that the main character is willing to win the battle) is performed, and stop is performed in a stop mode (so-called Zoro eyes) where the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 suggest a big hit indicate. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also displayed in a stop at the same time in a stop mode that suggests a big hit. On the other hand, when the special view fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special view is, for example, “SP loss change”, as shown in FIG. 19 (C-2), an effect that suggests a loss (for example, the enemy character is in battle The display which is pleased to win) is carried out, and the stop display of the effect patterns EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 in a stop mode suggesting a reach loss is performed. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also simultaneously displayed in a stop mode that suggests a loss. In addition, it is possible to change or add suitably the presentation content of SP reach.

  Here, the possibility that the effect design symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 for each reach may be stopped in a manner showing a big hit (big hit expectation) will be described in detail. The jackpot expectation for each reach is determined by the execution probability based on the result of the jackpot decision. For example, if the execution probability of N reach is 10% if the result of the big hit judgment is "losing" and 100% if the result of the big hit judgment is "big hit", the execution probability of the SP reach is If the result of the jackpot judgment is 4% if the result of the "losing" is 100% if the result of the jackpot judgment is "big hit", the jackpot expectation of the SP reach is greater than the jackpot expectation of the N reach It is possible to 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 2% if the result of the big hit judgment is "loss", and the result of the big hit judgment is "big hit" In the case of 20%, the execution probability of SP reach B is 2% if the result of the big hit judgment is "loss" and 30% if the result of the big hit judgment is "big hit" For example, it is possible to set the jackpot expectation of SP reach B higher than the jackpot expectation of SP reach A. As described above, the jackpot expectation can be set by appropriately setting the execution probability according to the result of the jackpot determination.

4-3. Hold Icon Display Area As shown in FIG. 20A, the display unit 50a of the image display device 50 can be provided with a hold icon display area 50d consisting of four display areas. The reserved icon display area 50d is composed of a first display area 50d1, a second display area 50d2, a third display area 50d3 and a fourth display area 50d4, and each of them is selected according to the special view 1 reserve count or the special view 2 reserve count. It is possible to display the hold icon HA in the display areas 50d1, 50d2, 50d3 and 50d4. For example, when the special drawing 1 holding number is "1", the holding icon HA is displayed in the first display area 50d1, and when the special drawing 1 holding number is "2", the first display area 50d1 and the first display area 50d1 are displayed. The hold icon HA is displayed in the second display area 50d2.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 20A, the icon display area 50e consisting of one display area can be provided in the vicinity of the reserved icon display area 50d. The icon display area 50e can display the icon TA, which is the same as or different from the hold icon HA, in response to the start of the special figure change effect.

  The number of display areas constituting the reserved icon display area 50d can be changed as appropriate. In addition, it is possible to set the reserved icon display area 50d as a display area for displaying both the number of special views 1 suspension and the number of special views 2 suspension or as a display area for displaying only one of them.

4-3-1. Hold Effect The pachinko gaming machine PY 1 can perform hold effect in response to the game ball winning in the first start hole 11 or the second start hole 12. The holding effect can notify the player of the number of special drawing 1 holding or special drawing 2 holding.

  In the hold effect, when the gaming ball wins the first starting hole 11 when the number of special drawing 1 hold is "0", the special view fluctuation effect is started, for example, as shown in FIG. 20 (B), the icon The icon TA is displayed in the display area 50e. Then, when two more game balls win the first starting hole 11 during the special figure fluctuation effect, as shown in FIG. 20C, the first display area 50d1 and the second display area 50d of the reserved icon display area 50d A reserve icon HA is displayed at 50d2, and the player is notified that the special view 1 reserve number is "2". After that, when the special figure fluctuation production ends and a new special figure fluctuation production is started, as shown in FIG. 20 (D), the holding icon displayed in the first display area 50d1 of the holding icon display area 50d The HA is moved to the icon display area 50e and displayed as the icon TA, and the hold icon HA displayed in the second display area 50d2 of the hold icon display area 50d is moved to the first display area 50d1 and displayed. The player is notified that the special drawing 1 holding number is “1”.

4-4. Advance Notification Notification Effect The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform the advance notification notification effect at an arbitrary timing during the special figure fluctuation effect. The notice notification effect is an effect using the image display device 50, the speaker 52, the frame lamp 53, the panel lamp 54, the movable devices 55, 56, 58, the input devices 40, 41, etc. It is possible to suggest the result of pattern determination.

4-4-1. Movable Body Effect The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform movable body effect using the movable devices 55, 56, 58 as the advance notice effect. The movable body effect is an effect of operating the movable devices 55, 56, and 58, and functions as an effect for making the player expect a jackpot.

  In the movable body effect, for example, when developing from N reach to SP reach, as shown in FIG. 21A, the on-board movable device 55 and the on-board movable device 56 operate to move the on-board movable body 55k and the board. It is suggested that the lower movable body 56k moves so as to overlap on the display unit 50a as viewed from the player, and develops into the SP reach. At this time, an effect image is displayed in a space not overlapping the on-board movable body 55k and the on-board movable body 56k of the display unit 50a. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 21B, the on-board movable body 55k and the on-board movable body 56k return to the normal standby state and develop into the SP reach. In addition, about movable body production, it is not restricted to the development suggestion to SP reach, and it is possible to change or add suitably. Further, the operation content of the movable device in the movable body effect can be appropriately changed or added.

4-4-2. Operation Effect The pachinko game machine PY1 can perform an operation effect using the normal button 40 and the special button 41 as the advance notice effect. The operation effect is an effect in which the player operates the normal button 40 or the special button 41, and functions as an effect for making the player expect a jackpot.

  In the operation effect, for example, in SP reach, a period (button operation effective period) in which the pressing operation of the special button 41 is effective occurs, and as shown in FIG. , An effect (button operation promotion effect) for urging the operation of the special button 41 is performed. In the button operation promotion effect, a button operation promotion image G3 is displayed on the display unit 50a. The button operation promotion image G3 is an image simulating the special button 41 (special button image G31), an image representing the operation mode of the special button 41 (that is, pressing operation) (pressing operation image G32), and the button operation valid period. And an image representing a remaining time (operation effective period remaining time image G33). The operation valid period remaining time image G33 is composed of a roughly curved progress bar, and changes with the passage of time so that the player can easily understand the remaining time of the operation valid period. Thereafter, in response to the pressing of the special button 41 in the button operation valid period, or after the button operation valid period elapses without the special button 41 being operated in the button operation valid period, FIG. As shown in the diagram, the on-board movable device 55 is activated, and the on-board movable body 55k moves so as to overlap the display unit 50a when viewed from the player, suggesting a jackpot expectation. The operation effect is not limited to the operation of the on-board movable device 55, and can be appropriately changed or added.

4-4-3. Pre-reading effect The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform pre-reading effect for the special-image 1 holding or the special-image 2 holding without the special drawing lottery being performed as the advance notice information effect. The pre-reading effect functions as an effect for suggesting the lottery result of the special drawing lottery for the special drawing 1 holding or the special drawing 2 holding in advance.

  In pre-reading effect, for example, when the result of pre-reading decision for special figure 1 reservation is “big hit”, as shown in FIG. May be displayed as "☆". In addition, when the result of the pre-reading determination is “missing”, the hold icon HA may be displayed as “☆” as so-called “gasse effect”. In addition, it is possible to perform the pre-reading effect on both or one of the special figure 1 reserve and the special figure 2 reserve. Further, the present invention is not limited to the change of the display mode of the hold icon HA, and can be appropriately changed or added.

5. Control of the Game by the Game Control Microcomputer 101 Next, the control of the game by the game control microcomputer 101 will be described with reference to FIGS. Note that counters, timers, buffers, and the like that appear in the control of the game by the game control microcomputer 101 described below are provided in the game RAM 104.

[1. Main control main processing]
When the pachinko gaming machine PY 1 is powered on, the gaming control microcomputer 101 provided on the main control board 100 reads out and executes the program of the main control main processing shown in FIG. 23 from the gaming ROM 103. As shown in the figure, in the main control main process, first, a power-on process (S001) is performed. In the power-on process, permission setting for access to the game RAM 104, setting of the game CPU 102, setting of SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time), and the like are performed.

  Next to the power-on process, the interrupt is inhibited (S002), and the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S003) is executed. In this normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (S003), the counter values of the various random numbers shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B are incremented by one and updated. When the upper limit value is reached, the counter value of each random number is returned to "0" and added again. The initial value of the counter of each random number may be a value other than “0”, or may be randomly changed. Further, at least a part of each random number may be a so-called hardware random number generated using a known random number generation circuit including a counter IC or the like.

  When the normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (S003) is finished, the interruption is permitted (S004). While the interrupt is permitted, execution of the main timer interrupt process (S005) is possible. The main timer interrupt process (S005) is executed based on an interrupt pulse repeatedly input to the gaming CPU 102, for example, in a cycle of 4 msec. That is, the main timer interrupt process (S005) is executed in a cycle of 4 msec. Then, after the main side timer interrupt process (S005) is finished and before the main side timer interrupt process (S005) is started next, various patterns by the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S003) The process of updating the counter value of the random number is repeatedly executed. When an interrupt pulse is input to the gaming CPU 102 while the interrupt is disabled, the main timer interrupt process (S005) is not started immediately, but is started after the interrupt is permitted (S004).

[2. Main timer interrupt processing]
Next, the main timer interrupt process (S005) will be described. As shown in FIG. 24, in the main timer interrupt process (S005), an output process (S101) is first executed. In the output process (S101), a command or the like set in an output buffer provided in the gaming RAM 104 of the main control board 100 in each process described below is output to the sub control board 120, the payout control board 170, and the like.

  In the input process (S102) performed subsequent to the output process (S101), the gaming control microcomputer 101 takes in, for example, a detection signal from the lower plate full switch for detecting the lower plate 35 full, and plays the game as lower plate full data. It stores in the output buffer of RAM104.

  The normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (S103) performed next is the same as the normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (S003) performed in the main control main processing of FIG. That is, the updating process of the counter values of various random numbers shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B is performed during the execution period of the main timer interrupt process (S005) and the other period (main timer interrupt process (S500). After the end of S005), it is performed both in the period until the next main timer interrupt processing (S005) is started.

  After the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S103), the game control microcomputer 101 performs a sensor detection process (S104), then performs a normal operation process (S105), and further performs a special operation process (S106) Do. The sensor detection process, the normal operation process and the special operation process will be described later.

  Next to the special operation process (S106), a distribution apparatus control process for controlling the distribution apparatus 16D is performed (S107).

  Next, the game control microcomputer 101 executes other processing (S108), and ends the main timer interrupt processing (S005). As the other process (S108), a power-off monitoring process when the power is shut off, update of a timer provided in the game RAM 104, and the like are performed. Further, as another process (S108), a payout control process of paying out a prize ball to the player is performed. In the payout control process, a winning ball request signal is transmitted to the payout control board 170 in accordance with the winning of the gaming ball to each winning opening. That is, the payout control board 170 pays out the winning balls based on the winning ball request signal.

  Then, the gaming control microcomputer 101 repeatedly executes the processing of steps S002 to S004 of the main control main processing (see FIG. 23) until the next interrupt pulse is input to the gaming CPU 102 (see FIG. 23), and the interrupt pulse is input. And (after about 4 msec), the main timer interrupt process (S005) is executed again. The game control microcomputer 101 executes the command set in the output buffer of the game RAM 104 in the previous main timer interrupt process (S005) in the output process (S101) of the main timer interrupt process (S005) executed again. Output etc.

And the special figure 1 fluctuation start command showing the judged special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is generated. The special figure 1 change start command is associated with information about being special figure 1, information about the result of big hit determination, information about the result of reach determination, information about result of big hit type determination, special figure 1 change pattern It includes information on the special map fluctuation time. Then, the variable display of the special view 1 is started on the special view 1 display 81 a based on the special view change time associated with the determined special view 1 change pattern.

  The special figure 1 reserve storage unit shift process is a process that is performed when the special figure 1 determination process and the special figure 1 variation pattern determination process are performed. In the special figure 1 reserve storage unit shift process, the special figure 1 related random number stored in the special figure 1 reserve storage unit 105a is shifted by one toward the first area side, and the special figure 1 relevant random number for the first area is Clear from the holding storage unit 105a in FIG. In this way, the special figure 1 related random numbers are digested in the order of acquisition. Then, a special figure 1 pending number command representing the special figure 1 pending number after the processing is generated.

  In the present embodiment, when both the special drawing 2 reservation number and the special drawing 1 reservation number exist, the special drawing 2 determination process is performed with priority, and the variable display of the special drawing 2 and the variable display of the special drawing 1 And is not supposed to be done in parallel.

2-3-2. Special symbol variation processing]
Special symbol variation processing is processing that is performed during variable display of a special drawing. In the special symbol variation processing, in response to the passage of the special figure variation time, the special view display 81 terminates the variable display of the special figure and causes the special figure according to the result of the jackpot determination to be stopped and displayed. If the result of the big hit determination is a big hit, the big hit symbol indicating the big hit is stopped and displayed, and if the result of the big hit determination is a loss, a lost symbol indicating a loss is stopped and displayed. Then, a special view fluctuation stop command indicating the end of the variable view of the special view is generated.

2-3-3. Special symbol confirmation process]
The special symbol determination process is a process performed when the special view is stopped and displayed. In the special symbol determination process, when the special view currently displayed with a stop is a big hit symbol, it is shifted to the big hit gaming state. Then, an opening command indicating the start of the jackpot game is generated. The opening command includes information on the result of the jackpot type determination. Further, when the special view currently displayed stopped is a lost symbol and the high probability state is ended, the normal probability state is set. Then, a high probability end command indicating transition to the normal probability state is generated. Also, when the special view currently displayed stopped is a lost symbol and the time saving state is ended, the non-time saving state is set. Then, a time saving end command indicating transition to the non-time saving state is generated. In addition, when the special figure currently displayed with a stop is a lost design, and the special figure 2 reserve number and the special figure 1 reserve number are "0", the customer wait which shows that pachinko game machine PY1 is in standby state Generate a command

2-3-4. Jackpot game control process]
The jackpot game control process is a process performed in the jackpot gaming state. In the jackpot game control process, a jackpot game is performed using the jackpot game control table. After the transition to the jackpot gaming state, each round game is started depending on the opening time or the closing time. Then, a round game command indicating the start of the round game is generated. In addition, ending is started according to ending 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 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. In the case of limiting the duration of the high probability state, the duration of the high probability state (for example, the number of times of variable display of the special view in which the high probability state can be continued without winning a jackpot) is also set. Then, a high probability setting command indicating the setting of the high probability state is generated. Further, when changing from the non-time saving state to the time saving state, the time saving state is set at the end of the jackpot gaming state. When limiting the duration of the time saving state, the duration of the time saving state (for example, the number of times of the variable display of the special view in which the time saving state can be continued without winning the jackpot) is also set. Then, a time saving setting command indicating the setting of the time saving state is generated.

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

6. Control of Effect by the Effect Control Microcomputer 121 Next, control of effect by the effect control microcomputer 121 will be described based on FIG. 25 and FIG. A counter, a timer, a flag, a buffer, and the like appearing 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 processing]
When the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is powered on, the effect control microcomputer 121 provided on the sub control board 120 reads out the program of the sub control main processing shown in FIG. 25 from the effect ROM 123 and executes it. As shown in the figure, in the sub control main process, first, a power on process according to the power on is performed (S4001). In the power-on process, for example, setting of the effect CPU 122, setting of SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time) and the like are performed.

  Next, interrupt 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 performing determination regarding various effects are updated. The method for updating the effect determination random number counter for various effects can be, for example, the same method as the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update processing performed by the main control board 100 described above. The random number value may be added by two instead of one by one when updating. The same applies to the normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process performed by the main control board 100 described above.

  When the random number seed update process is completed, the 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 which has received the command displays an image on the display unit 50a according to the received command (performs various effects by the image). Further, the sub control board 120 causes the speaker 52 to output a sound (perform various sound effects by sound) or the lamp control, along with various effects performed by the image control board 140. The frame lamp 53 and the board lamp 54 are made to emit light through the circuit 151 (to execute various light emission effects by light emission), or the movable devices 55, 56, 58 are operated (to perform various movable object effects by operation) Do)

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 121 permits an interrupt (S4005). After that, step S4002 to step S4005 are looped. While the interrupt is permitted, execution of the reception interrupt process (S4010) and the sub timer interrupt process (S4011) is possible.

  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 received and received by 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 prior to other interrupt processes (S4011).

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

  In the input process, an operation on an operation unit operable 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, light emission data so that lamps such as the frame lamp 53 and the board lamp 54 are made to emit light at a timing or the like that matches the effect by the image based on the effect data created in the effect data creation process described later. Is output to the lamp control circuit 151. That is, the effect control microcomputer 121 causes the frame lamp 53, the board 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, based on the data for presentation created in the presentation data creation process, the drive data is output to perform the movable body effect to operate the movable devices such as the movable devices 55, 56, 58 at a predetermined timing. Do. That is, the effect control microcomputer 121 performs movable body effect to operate the movable devices 55, 56, 58, etc. in a predetermined operation mode according to the drive data. In watchdog timer processing, reset setting of the watchdog timer is performed.

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

That is, SP reach is performed through normal fluctuation and reach including “type 1 advance notice effect” to be described later, and then, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are displayed on the main stop in the stop mode indicating a loss. In addition, in the reach of this special figure fluctuation pattern, as left production design EZ1 and right production design EZ3, the same one of the production design which includes the odd number and the same among the production design which includes the even number. The temporary stop display is displayed. This special figure fluctuation pattern "P43" is referred to as "special 1 first SP loss fluctuation" of the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern.

  The special figure fluctuation pattern "P44" is a special figure 1 fluctuation pattern corresponding to the "loss" of the above "P32", "P33", "P34" and "P41". That is, SP reach is performed through normal fluctuation, reach, N reach, and development effects that do not include various notice effects (type 1 notice, type 2 notice, type 3 notice and type 4 notice). After that, the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are displayed as a main stop in a stop mode that suggests a loss. In addition, in reach of this special figure fluctuation pattern, same as the above-mentioned “P43”, as the left production design EZ1 and the right production design EZ3, among the production design which includes the odd number the same one, or includes the even number The same one of the effect symbols is displayed temporarily. This special figure fluctuation pattern "P44" is called "special 1 second SP loss fluctuation" of the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern.

  The special figure fluctuation pattern "P45" is a special figure 1 fluctuation pattern corresponding to the "loss" of the "P35", "P36", "P37" and "P42". That is, N reach is performed through normal fluctuation and reach not including various advance notice effects, and then, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are displayed as a main stop in a stop mode indicating a loss. In addition, in reach of this special figure fluctuation pattern, same as the above-mentioned “P43” and “P44”, as the left production design EZ1 and the right production design EZ3, the same one among the production design including odd number, or even The same one of the rendering symbols including the numbers of is temporarily displayed. This special figure fluctuation pattern "P45" is referred to as "N loss fluctuation" of the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern.

  According to FIG. 28, in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table in the case where the gaming state is non-short time state and the result of the big hit determination is "lost" and the result of the reach determination is "reach available", the result of the big hit determination is " Unlike in the case of the jackpot, there is no special pattern fluctuation pattern including “type 2 advance notice effect” described later. Therefore, it is possible for the player to grasp that the result of the jackpot determination is the "big hit" when the "type 2 advance notice effect" is usually performed in a fluctuating manner, and while confirming that the jackpot is won, "the second It is possible to enjoy the special figure fluctuation presentation after the "kind notice presentation".

  Also, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table (Fig. 28) when the result of the big hit judgment is "loss" and the result of the reach judgment is "reach" is a special drawing including "type 3 notice effect" described later There is no fluctuation pattern. Therefore, it is possible for the player to grasp that the result of the jackpot determination is the "big hit" when the "type 3 advance notice effect" is usually performed in a fluctuating manner, and while being convinced that the jackpot is won, "third It is possible to enjoy the special figure fluctuation presentation after the "kind notice presentation".

  Furthermore, the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table (Fig. 28) when the result of the big hit determination is "lost" and the result of the reach determination is "reach available" is a special figure including "type 4 notice effect" described later. There is no fluctuation pattern. Moreover, as described above, the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table in the case where the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the result of the big hit symbol type determination is "big hit symbol 2" is a special figure including "type 4 notice effect" There is no fluctuation pattern. Therefore, it is possible for the player to grasp that the result of the jackpot determination is "big hit" and the result of the jackpot symbol type determination is "big hit symbol 1" at the time when the "type 4 advance notice effect" is performed normally. Yes, it is possible to enjoy the special figure fluctuation effects after the "type 4 advance notice effect" while being convinced that the jackpot is switched to the high probability high base gaming state after the jackpot game.

  FIG. 29 shows the distribution ratio (execution probability) of the special figure fluctuation pattern in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table (FIG. 28) when the gaming state is the non-short time state. In this embodiment, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the result of the big hit symbol type determination is "big hit symbol 1" in the non-time-short state, the special figure in the distribution ratio shown in FIG. The fluctuation pattern is determined. Moreover, in the non-time saving state, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the result of the big hit symbol type determination is "big hit symbol 2", the special figure fluctuation pattern is in the distribution ratio shown in FIG. It is decided. Furthermore, when the result of the jackpot determination is "lost" and the result of the reach determination is "reach" in the non-time-short state, the special figure fluctuation pattern is determined by the distribution ratio shown in FIG.

  According to FIG. 29A, the value of the total of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation patterns “P21”, “P22” and “P23” is “42%”, and the special figure fluctuation patterns “P32” and “P33”. And “P34” total value (“30%”). That is, when the result of the determination in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination process is "big hit" and "big hit symbol 1", according to the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern in which the SP reach is performed through normal fluctuation without performing various advance notice effects. Also, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern in which the SP reach is performed through the normal fluctuation including the first-class preview effect is more easily selected.

  On the other hand, according to FIG. 29C, the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P43", which is the special figure fluctuation pattern for the "lost" of the special figure fluctuation patterns "P21", "P22" and "P23". The value of is 5%. This value is the distribution ratio value ("25%") of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P44" which is the special figure fluctuation pattern for the special figure fluctuation patterns "P32", "P33" and "P34" for the "loss" Smaller than). That is, when the determination result in the special figure 1 variation pattern determination process is "reach with loss", the normal variation including the first kind notice effect contrary to the case where the determination result is "big hit symbol 1" It is easier to select the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern in which the SP reach is performed after the normal fluctuation in which various advance notice effects are not performed, than the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern in which the SP reach is performed through the.

  By the above, when the result of the judgment in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment processing is “big hit” and “big hit symbol 1”, “the first kind of SP reach via normal fluctuation without performing various advance notice effects” It is easier to perform SP reach through normal fluctuation including "preliminary effects". Therefore, the player is expected to perform the subsequent jackpot game 1 more when the "type 1 advance notice effect" is performed due to the normal fluctuation than when the SP reach is performed without the execution of various advance notice effects. Easy to do.

  In addition, the total value (“30%”) of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation patterns “P32”, “P33” and “P34” is the fluctuation of the special figure fluctuation patterns “P35”, “P36” and “P37”. It is larger than the value of the sum of fractions ("6%") (see FIG. 29A). That is, when the determination result in the special figure 1 variation pattern determination process is "big hit" and "big hit symbol 1", the special figure 1 variation pattern is performed only up to N reach through normal variation without performing various advance notice effects It is easier to select the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern in which the SP reach is performed after the normal fluctuation in which various advance notice effects are not performed. On the other hand, the distribution ratio value ("25%") of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P44" is the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern for the "losing" of the special figure fluctuation patterns "P35", "P36" and "P37". It is smaller than the value (“70%”) of the distribution ratio of a certain special figure fluctuation pattern “P45”. That is, when the determination result in the special figure 1 change pattern determination process is “reach with loss”, contrary to the case of “big hit symbol 1”, the SP reach is performed through normal change without performing various advance notice effects. It is easier to select the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern which is performed only up to the N reach through the usual fluctuation without performing various advance notice effects than the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern to be performed.

  By the above, when the result of the judgment in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern judgment processing is “big hit symbol 1”, it is easy to be done to the SP reach through the normal fluctuation and N reach which do not perform various advance notice effects. Therefore, it is easier for the player to expect execution of the subsequent jackpot game 1 when the SP reach is performed than when the N reach is performed only when the various advance effects are not performed due to the normal fluctuation. .

  Further, according to FIG. 29A, the value of the total of the distribution ratios of the special figure fluctuation patterns “P24”, “P25” and “P26” is “10%”. Further, the value of the total of the distribution ratios of the special figure fluctuation patterns “P27”, “P28” and “P29” is “10%”. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the result of the determination in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination process is “big hit” and “big hit symbol 1”, “type 2 notice effect” and “type 3 notice effect” described later. And “can be performed with similar frequency.

  In addition, the value of the total of the distribution ratios of the special figure fluctuation patterns “P30” and “P31” is “2%” (see FIG. 29A). Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the result of the determination in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination process is "big hit" and "big hit symbol 1", the "type 4 advance notice effect" described later is "type 2 notice" It is less likely to be performed than the "representation" and the "type 3 advance notice".

  Further, according to FIG. 29 (B), the distribution ratio value of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P38" is "44%", and the distribution ratio value of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P40" ("10%" Greater than). However, according to FIG. 29 (C), the distribution ratio value ("5%") of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P43" which is the special figure fluctuation pattern for the "loss" of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P38". Is smaller than the distribution ratio value (“25%”) of the special figure fluctuation pattern “P44”, which is the special figure fluctuation pattern for the “losing” of the special figure fluctuation pattern “P39”. Therefore, when the determination result in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination process is "big hit" and "big hit symbol 2", as in the case where the determination result is "big hit symbol 1", various advance notice effects are not usually performed. It is easier to perform SP reach through normal fluctuation including “type 1 advance notice effect” than SP reach through fluctuation. Therefore, the player is expected to perform the subsequent jackpot game more when the "type 1 advance notice effect" is performed due to the normal fluctuation than when the various types of advance notice effects are performed and the SP reach is performed. easy.

  In addition, the distribution ratio value ("30%") of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P41" is larger than the total value ("6%") of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P42" (FIG. 29) (B)). On the other hand, the distribution ratio value ("25%") of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P44" is a special figure fluctuation pattern "P45" which is a special figure 1 fluctuation pattern for "loss" of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P42". Less than the distribution ratio value (“70%”) of Therefore, when the determination result in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination process is "big hit" and "big hit symbol 2", as in the case where the determination result is "big hit symbol 1", various advance notice effects are not usually performed. It is easy to be changed to SP reach through fluctuation and N reach. Therefore, the player is more likely to expect the execution of the subsequent jackpot game when the SP reach is performed only when the N reach is performed when the various advance effects are not performed due to the normal fluctuation.

  Further, the value of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation pattern “P39” and the value of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation pattern “P40” are both “10%” (see FIG. 29B). Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the determination result in the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination process is "big hit" and "big hit symbol 2", "type 2 notice effect" and "type 3 notice effect" described later. It is feasible with similar frequency.

Therefore, it is possible to enjoy the special figure fluctuation effect after the "type 2 advance notice effect" with certainty that the jackpot has been won.

  In addition, in the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern judgment table (Fig. 30) when the result of the big hit judgment is "loss" and the result of the reach judgment is "reach", the special drawing fluctuation including "the third kind notice effect" There is no pattern. Therefore, when "type 3 advance notice effect" is performed with normal fluctuation, the player can grasp that the result of the jackpot determination is "jackpot", and while convinced that the jackpot is won, "third It is possible to enjoy the special map fluctuation presentation after the "kind notice presentation".

  Furthermore, in the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern judgment table (Fig. 30) when the result of the big hit judgment is "loss" and the result of the reach judgment is "reach", the special drawing fluctuation including "type 4 advance notice effect" There is no pattern. Moreover, as described above, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table in the case where the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the result of the big hit symbol type determination is "big hit symbol 4" or "big hit symbol 5" There is no special pattern fluctuation pattern including "preliminary effect". Therefore, it is possible that the player can grasp that the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the result of the big hit symbol type determination is "big hit symbol 3" at the time when the "type 4 advance notice effect" is performed with normal fluctuation. It has become. Then, it is possible to enjoy the special figure fluctuation effects after the “type 4 advance notice effect” while being convinced that the jackpot will be shifted to the high probability high base gaming state after the jackpot game.

  FIG. 31 shows the distribution rate (execution probability) of the special figure fluctuation pattern in the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table (FIG. 30) when the gaming state is the short time state. In this embodiment, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 3" in the time saving state, the special figure fluctuation pattern is determined by the distribution ratio shown in FIG. . Moreover, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 4" in the time saving state, the special figure fluctuation pattern is determined by the distribution ratio shown in FIG. 31 (B). Furthermore, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 5" in the time saving state, the special figure fluctuation pattern is determined by the distribution ratio shown in FIG. 31 (C). Further, when the result of the big hit determination is "lost" and the result of the reach determination is "reach" in the time saving state, the special figure fluctuation pattern is determined by the distribution ratio shown in FIG. 31 (D).

  According to FIG. 31 (A), in the present embodiment, the effect including the number “7” among the special figure 2 fluctuation patterns when the result of the big hit determination is “big hit” and the big hit symbol type is “big hit symbol 3” While the value of the total of the distribution ratio of the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern where the reach using the design is done “10%”, the reach where the reach which uses the production design which includes the number other than “7” is done The value of the sum of distribution ratios in the variation pattern is “88%”.

  Therefore, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 3", "7" is more than the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern in which the reach using the effect symbol including the number "7" is performed. The special figure 2 fluctuation pattern in which the reach using a rendering pattern including numbers other than "" is performed is easy to be selected. Therefore, it is difficult for the player to specify that the jackpot symbol type is “big hit symbol 3” at the time of reach after the normal fluctuation including various advance notice effects.

  Further, according to FIG. 31 (B), in the present embodiment, among the special figure 2 fluctuation patterns in the case where the result of the big hit determination is “big hit” and the big hit symbol type is “big hit symbol 4”, other than “7”. While the value of the total of the distribution ratio of the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern where the reach using the effect design including the odd number is performed is “34%”, the reach using the effect design including the even number is The total value of the distribution ratio of the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern to be performed is "66%".

  Therefore, when the result of the big hit judgment is "big hit" and the big hit symbol classification is "big hit symbol 4", the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern where the reach using the production design which includes the odd number other than "7" is performed Also, the special figure 2 variation pattern in which the reach using the effect pattern including the even number is performed is easier to be selected. Therefore, at the time of reach, it is difficult to identify that the result of the jackpot determination is "jackpot" and the jackpot symbol type is "jackpot symbol 4". In addition, it is easier for the player to be aware that the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 4" since reach using the effect symbols including even numbers is more easily performed. ing.

  In addition, the total value of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation patterns “P84”, “P85” and “P86” is “42%”, and the special pattern fluctuation patterns “P93”, “P94” and “P95” Greater than the value of the sum of fractions ("12%"). That is, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 4", the first figure 1 is more than the special figure 2 variation pattern in which SP reach is performed via normal variation without performing various advance notice effects. Special pattern 2 variation pattern in which SP reach is performed through normal variation including species preview effect is more easily selected.

  On the other hand, according to FIG. 31 (D), the distribution ratio ratio of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P103" which is the special figure fluctuation pattern for the "lost" of the special figure fluctuation patterns "P84", "P85" and "P86". The value is "10%". This value is the distribution ratio value ("20%") of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P104" which is the special figure fluctuation pattern for the "special loss" pattern of the special figure fluctuation patterns "P93", "P94" and "P95". Less than. That is, when the determination result in the special figure 2 variation pattern determination process is "reach with loss", contrary to the case of the "big hit symbol 4", SP reach after passing the normal variation including the first kind notice effect It is easier to select the special figure 2 variation pattern in which the SP reach is performed through the normal variation in which various advance notice effects are not performed, than the special figure 2 variation pattern in which is performed.

  As described above, when the result of the big hit judgment is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 4", usually including the first kind notice effect rather than the SP reach through the normal fluctuation which does not perform various notice effects SP reach is more likely to go through fluctuations. Therefore, the player usually hits the jackpot in the case where SP reach is performed after the execution of the first type advance notice effect due to the normal fluctuation, as compared with the case where the SP reach is performed without the execution of various advance notice effects. It is easy to expect the execution of the game 4.

  Furthermore, the total value ("12%") of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation patterns "P93", "P94" and "P95" is the sum of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation patterns "P96" and "P97" Greater than the value of "4%". That is, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 4", the special figure 2 variation pattern performed until the SP reach through the usual variation which does not perform various advance notice effects is various It is easier to select than the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern which is performed only up to reach through normal fluctuation which does not perform advance announcement effects.

  On the other hand, according to FIG. 31D, the distribution ratio value ("20%") of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P104" corresponds to the special figure fluctuation patterns "P96" and "P97" for the "loss" special It is smaller than the value (“70%”) of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation pattern “P105” which is the figure fluctuation pattern. That is, when the determination result in the special figure 2 variation pattern determination process is “reach with loss”, contrary to the case of “big hit symbol 4”, only the line is reached through normal variation without performing various advance notice effects. The special figure 2 fluctuation pattern which is not excluded is easier to be selected than the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern which is performed up to the SP reach through the normal fluctuation without performing various advance notice effects.

  By the above, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the big hit symbol classification is "big hit symbol 4", it is easy to be further performed to SP reach via the usual fluctuation and reach which do not perform various advance notice effects. Therefore, the player expects the execution of the subsequent jackpot game 4 in the case where the SP reach is performed than in the case where only the reach is performed when the various advance effects are not performed due to the normal fluctuation. easy.

  According to FIG. 31 (C), the value of the distribution rate of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P98" is "42%", and from the value ("12%") of the distribution rate of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P101" Too big. That is, when the result of the big hit determination is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 5", the first figure 1 is more than the special figure 2 variation pattern in which SP reach is performed through normal variation without performing various advance notice effects. Special pattern 2 variation pattern in which SP reach is performed through normal variation including species preview effect is more easily selected.

  On the other hand, according to FIG. 31D, the distribution ratio value of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P103" which is the special figure fluctuation pattern for the "losing" of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P98" is "10%". . This value is smaller than the distribution ratio value ("20%") of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P104" which is the special figure fluctuation pattern for the "lost" of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P101". That is, when the determination result in the special figure 2 variation pattern determination process is "reach with loss", contrary to the case of the "big hit symbol 5", SP reach after passing the normal variation including the first kind notice effect It is easier to select the special figure 2 variation pattern in which the SP reach is performed through the normal variation in which various advance notice effects are not performed, than the special figure 2 variation pattern in which is performed.

  As described above, when the result of the big hit judgment is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 5", the normal fluctuation including the first kind notice effect is more than passing through the normal change where the various advance notice effects are not performed. If it passes, SP reach is easy to be executed. Therefore, the player who has performed the first-class advance notice effect due to the normal fluctuation and then the SP reach is performed does not have the execution of the various advance notice effects and is performed later than the SP reach is performed. It is easy to expect

  Furthermore, the value ("12%") of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P101" is larger than the value ("4%") of the total of the distribution ratio of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P102". That is, when the result of the big hit judgment is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 5", the special figure 2 variation pattern performed until the SP reach through the normal variation which does not perform various advance notice effects is various It is easier to select than the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern which is performed only up to reach through normal fluctuation which does not perform advance announcement effects.

  On the other hand, according to FIG. 31 (D), the distribution ratio value ("20%") of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P104" is a special figure fluctuation pattern for "missing" of the special figure fluctuation pattern "P102". It is smaller than the value (“70%”) of the distribution ratio of a certain special figure fluctuation pattern “P105”. That is, when the determination result in the special figure 2 variation pattern determination process is "reach with loss", contrary to the case of "big hit symbol 5", only the line is reached through the normal variation without performing various advance notice effects The special figure 2 fluctuation pattern which is not excluded is easier to be selected than the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern which is performed up to the SP reach through the normal fluctuation without performing various advance notice effects.

  As described above, when the result of the big hit judgment is "big hit" and the big hit symbol type is "big hit symbol 5", various notice effects are performed rather than only reaching until reaching normal after not performing various notice effects. It is easy to be done to the SP reach through normal fluctuation that is not Therefore, the player expects the execution of the subsequent jackpot game 5 in the case where the SP reach is performed than in the case where only the reach is performed when the various advance effects are not performed due to the normal fluctuation. easy.

7-3. Various Effects Next, various effects in the present embodiment will be further described. The effect control microcomputer 121 according to the present embodiment can execute the "special figure fluctuation advance notice effect" in the normal change of the special figure fluctuation effect. In addition, it is possible to execute “design change effect” in the special figure fluctuation effect. Furthermore, in the round effect in the jackpot production mode, it is possible to execute the "at jackpot game advance notice effect". The special effect fluctuation advance notice effect is an effect for giving notice of the subsequent execution of the SP reach, and the jackpot notice effect during the big hit is an effect for giving notice of the execution of the subsequent big hit ending effect, so these special figure change notification effects at the time of these special effects And the jackpot game announcement effect at the time of the jackpot is also referred to simply as the "announcement effect".

7-3-1. First, the special figure fluctuation presentation of the present embodiment will be described. In the special figure fluctuation effect, fluctuation display of three effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is performed on the display unit 50a. The effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 fluctuate with the start of the variable display of the special view, and stop with the end of the variable display of the special view. That is, in the special figure fluctuation time of the variable display of the special figure, fluctuation display of production design EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 is done, after that stop display (full stop display) of production design EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 is done. Then, the result of the special drawing lottery is notified by the stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3.

  In the present embodiment, temporary stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 may be performed before main stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3. The temporary stop display is, for example, a sway fluctuation display of the rendering symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3, or a stationary display for a short time before re-changing the rendering symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3. Unlike the main stop display, the temporary stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 does not necessarily notify the result of the special drawing lottery.

  Furthermore, in the special figure fluctuation effect, fluctuation display of three small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is performed on the display unit 50a. These small symbols KZ1, KZ2 and KZ3 fluctuate with the start of the variable display of the special view and stop with the end of the variable display of the special view, similarly to the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3. Then, the stop display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 notifies the result of the special drawing lottery. However, unlike the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 have no temporary stop indication.

  There are eight different types of effect designs in the effect designs EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 of the present embodiment. There are eight types of small designs corresponding to the rendering designs EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 in the small designs KZ1, KZ2, KZ3. Specifically, it includes symbols including the number "1" (effect symbols and small symbols), symbols including the number "2", images including the number "3", symbols including the number "4", and numbers "5". There are symbols, symbols including the number "6", symbols including the number "7", and symbols including the number "8".

  In addition, the symbol (render symbol, small symbol) including the number “1”, the symbol including the number “3”, the symbol including the number “5”, and the symbol including the number “7” especially including the odd number (It is called a production design, a small design). On the other hand, symbols including the number "2" (effect symbols, small symbols), symbols including the number "4", symbols including the number "6", and symbols including the number "8" are particularly even numbers. It is said that it includes the symbols (production symbols, small symbols).

7-3-2. SP Reach Next, the SP reach of the present embodiment will be further described. SP reach is an effect that suggests that the result of the jackpot determination may be a "big hit". This suggests that this SP reach is more likely to be a "big hit" than the N reach described above (see Fig. 29). In the pachinko gaming machine PY1, when the result of the jackpot determination is "big hit", the gaming state is changed to the jackpot gaming state along with the execution of the subsequent jackpot game, so SP reach can be changed in the gaming state It can be said that this is an effect that suggests that there is a sex.

  The SP reach in the present embodiment includes a first aspect, a second aspect, and a third aspect in which the SP reach-only effects are different. The SP reach in the first aspect is an SP reach in which the SP reach-only effect is a battle effect between the main character and the “enemy A”. The SP reach in the second aspect is an SP reach in which the SP reach-only effect is a battle effect between the main character and the “enemy B”. On the other hand, the SP reach of the third aspect is an SP reach in which the dedicated effect for SP reach is a so-called "all rotation reach".

  As shown in FIG. 32A, in the SP reach of the first embodiment, first, a background image (SP reach background image) G113 dedicated to SP reach is displayed on the display unit 50a. Then, an image (SP reach start title image) G11 representing the start of the SP reach is displayed so as to be superimposed on the near side of the SP reach background image G113. The SP reach start title image G11 is an image showing the character string "S Destroy enemy A!" (See FIG. 32A). That is, this SP reach start title image G11 suggests that the contents of the effect for the SP reach-exclusive effect after this are a battle (competition) with “Enemy A”.

  After the display of the SP reach background image G113 and the SP reach start title image G11, the SP reach-specific effect in the SP reach of the first mode as shown in FIG. 32 (B) is started. In this SP reach-only effect, an image GM indicating the main character and an image GA indicating enemy A are displayed on the display unit 50a.

  In addition, the contents of the effect of the final phase (final stage) of the SP reach-only effect differ depending on the result of the special figure lottery (the special figure fluctuation pattern being executed). Specifically, as shown in FIG. 32 (C-1), when the special drawing lottery result is "big hit" (that is, the special drawing fluctuation pattern under execution corresponds to "big hit"), as shown in FIG. A display indicating the jackpot (a display in which the main character is happy to win the battle) is displayed on the part 50a, and temporary stop display of the rendering symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is performed in the stop mode indicating the jackpot.

  In the present embodiment, when the temporary stop display effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 are three sets of effect symbols including the number "7", then the main stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 is performed. At the same time, the stop display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is also performed in the same stop mode. On the other hand, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 displayed as temporary stop are numbers other than "7" (in the embodiment, "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6" "," "8"), in the case of three sets of rendering design including, after, pattern change production described later may be executed.

  On the other hand, when the result of the special drawing lottery is "loss" (that is, when the special drawing fluctuation pattern under execution corresponds to "loss"), as shown in FIG. 32 (C-2), the loss is suggested. The display to be performed (the display that the enemy A is happy to win the battle) is performed, and the temporary stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is performed in the stop mode indicating the reach loss. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 32D, along with the main stop display of the rendering symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3, the stop display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2 and KZ3 is also performed in the same stop mode (that is, the stop mode that suggests a loss). To be done.

  Subsequently, the SP reach of the second aspect will be described. As shown in FIG. 33A, in the SP reach of the second aspect, the same background image G113 for SP reach as in the first aspect is displayed on the display unit 50a. However, an SP reach start title image G12 different from the first mode is displayed so as to be superimposed on the near side of the SP reach background image G113. The SP reach start title image G12 is an image showing the character string "S Destroy enemy B!" (See FIG. 33A). That is, the SP reach start title image G12 suggests that the effect contents of the subsequent SP reach-only effect are a battle (competition) with the “enemy B”.

  After the display of the SP reach background image G113 and the SP reach start title image G12, the SP reach-specific effect in the SP reach of the second mode is started as shown in FIG. In the SP reach-specific effect, an image GM indicating the main character and an image GB indicating enemy B are displayed on the display unit 50a.

  As in the first aspect, the contents of the effect of the final phase (final stage) of the SP reach-specific effect in the second aspect differ depending on the result of the special figure lottery (the special figure fluctuation pattern in execution). Specifically, when the special drawing lottery result is "big hit", as shown in FIG. 33 (C-1), a display indicating a big hit on the display unit 50a (a protagonist character happily wins the battle) Is displayed, and temporary stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is performed in a stop mode that suggests a big hit. On the other hand, when the result of the special drawing lottery is "loss", as shown in FIG. 33 (C-2), a display suggesting a loss (display in which the enemy B is happy to win the battle) is performed. At the same time, temporary stop display of the rendering symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is performed in a stop mode that suggests reach loss. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 33 (D), together with the main stop display of the rendering symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3, stop display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is also performed in the same stop mode as that.

  Subsequently, the SP reach of the third aspect will be described. As shown in FIG. 34A, in the SP reach of the third aspect, an SP reach start title image G13 different from the first aspect or the second aspect is displayed. The SP reach start title image G13 is an image indicating the character string "full rotation" (see FIG. 34A). That is, this SP reach start title image G13 suggests that the effect contents of the subsequent SP reach-only effects are all-rotation reach. Note that, unlike the first aspect and the second aspect, there is no display of the SP reach background image G113 behind the SP reach start title image G13.

  After the display of the SP reach start title image G13 described above, SP reach-specific effects in the SP reach of the third aspect as shown in FIG. 34 (B) are started. All rotation reach is performed as this SP reach exclusive production. The all-rotation reach is an effect in which the variable display is performed in a state where three effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 on the display unit 50a include the same numbers. Specifically, three sets of effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are scrolled from above the display unit 50a downward at a speed that allows the player to distinguish.

  In the final phase (final stage) of the SP reach-only effect in the SP reach of the third aspect, temporary stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is performed in a stop mode that suggests a jackpot. In the present embodiment, temporary stop display is performed with three sets of effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 including the number "7". Then, as shown in FIG. 34C, together with the main stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3, stop display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is also performed in the same stop mode as that.

  As described above, in the case that the special symbols are displayed as a stop on three sets including the number “7” in the special pattern fluctuation production, the player is “big hit symbol 1” or “big hit symbol 3”. It is possible to grasp that it was elected. By the execution of the full rotation reach of the present embodiment, which is finally stopped and displayed with three sets of effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 finally including the number "7", the player, after this, is the jackpot gaming state It is possible to grasp that it is changed to the high probability high base gaming state through. That is, it can be said that the SP reach of the third aspect is an effect that suggests that the gaming state is changed to the high probability high base gaming state through the jackpot gaming state.

7-3-3. Special figure fluctuation advance notice effect Next, special figure fluctuation advance notice effect in the present embodiment will be described. The special figure fluctuation advance notice effect is an effect that can be performed during the execution of the special figure change effect, and is an effect that gives notice (proposes) the subsequent execution of the SP reach. That is, when the special figure fluctuation advance notice effect is executed, the SP reach is always executed in the same special figure fluctuation effect.

  There are four types of special effect fluctuation advance notice effects of this embodiment: type 1 advance notice effect, type 2 notice effect, type 3 notice effect and type 4 notice effect.

7-3-3-1. Type 1 Preview Effects The type 1 preview effects include those that give notice of execution of the SP reach of the first aspect and those that give notice of the execution of the SP reach of the second aspect.

  In the first-type advance notice effect for notifying the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect, first, as shown in FIG. 35A, the first title image G201 is displayed at the center of the display unit 50a. The first title image G201 is an image indicating the character string "next time". By the display of the first title image G201, it is possible to indicate to the player that the special view fluctuation advance notice effect is to be performed and that the SP reach is to be performed thereafter.

  After the display of the first title image G201, the execution of the first digest effect as shown in FIG. 35B is started on the display unit 50a. In this first digest effect, among the SP reach dedicated effects of the SP reach of the first aspect described above, the effects of portions excluding the final stage are summarized (abbreviated) in a short time (specifically, 5 seconds) is there. By executing such a first digest effect, it is possible to associate the player with the SP reach of the first aspect to the player, and it is consciously aware in advance that the SP reach of the first aspect will be performed as a subsequent SP reach. It is possible to recall.

  After execution of the first digest effect, a second title image G202 and a first subtitle image G203 shown in FIG. 35C are displayed on the display unit 50a. Similar to the first title image G201, the second title image G202 is an image indicating the character string "next time". Therefore, by the display of the second title image G202, it is possible to again instruct the player that the special view fluctuation advance notice effect is to be performed and that the SP reach is to be performed thereafter.

  The first subtitle image G203 is an image showing the character string "enemy A, appear". The enemy A is an enemy character appearing in the SP reach of the first aspect described above. Therefore, it is possible for the player to associate the SP reach of the first aspect with such a first subtitle image G203. That is, in the first type preliminary effect presentation, in addition to the execution of the first digest effect, it is possible to associate the player with the SP reach of the first aspect also by the subsequent first subtitle image G203. Therefore, it is possible to make the player more conscious (remembering) that the SP reach of the first aspect will be performed after this.

  In the case where the first-type preview effect for notifying the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect is performed, the SP reach of the first aspect is subsequently executed. That is, after such execution of the first type preview effect, the SP reach of an aspect in which the player is conscious (remembering) by the first type advance effect is executed.

  In the first type preview effect for previewing the execution of the SP reach of the second aspect, first, as shown in FIG. 36A, the above-mentioned first title image G201 is displayed at the center of the display unit 50a. By the display of the first title image G201, it is possible to indicate to the player that the special view fluctuation advance notice effect is to be performed and that the SP reach is to be performed thereafter.

  After the display of the first title image G201, execution of the second digest effect as shown in FIG. 36B is started on the display unit 50a. The second digest effect is an effect obtained by putting together the effects of the part excluding the final stage in a short time among the SP reach dedicated effects of the SP reach of the second aspect described above. By executing such a second digest effect, it is possible to associate the player with the SP reach of the second aspect to the player, and to be aware in advance that the SP reach of the second aspect will be performed as the subsequent SP reach ( It is possible to recall.

  After execution of the second digest effect, a second subtitle image G204 is displayed on the display unit 50a in addition to the above-described second title image G202 shown in FIG. 36C. The second subtitle image G204 is an image showing the character string "enemy B, appear". The enemy B is an enemy character appearing in the SP reach of the second aspect described above. Therefore, it is possible for the player to associate the SP reach of the second aspect with such a second subtitle image G204. That is, in the first type preliminary effect presentation, in addition to the execution of the second digest effect, it is possible to associate the player with the SP reach of the second mode also by the subsequent second subtitle image G204. Therefore, it is possible to make the player more conscious (remembering) that the SP reach of the second mode will be performed after this.

  In the case where the first-type preview effect for notifying the execution of the SP reach of the second aspect is performed, the SP reach of the second aspect is subsequently executed. That is, the first type notice effect for giving notice of the execution of the SP reach of the second aspect is also the same as the first type notice effect for giving the notice of the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect. By the effect, the SP reach of the aspect in which the player was conscious (remembering) is executed.

7-3-3-2. Second-class preview effect The second-class preview effect is an effect for previewing the execution of the SP reach in the first mode, as in the first-class preview effect for previewing the execution of the SP reach in the first mode described above. However, unlike the first-type preview effect for previewing the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect, a subtitle image (third subtitle image G205 described later) not related to the SP reach of the first aspect is displayed.

  In the second type preview effect, first, as shown in FIG. 37A, the above-mentioned first title image G201 is displayed as in the first type preview effect for previewing the execution of the SP reach in the first mode. By the display of the first title image G201, it is possible to indicate to the player that the special view fluctuation advance notice effect is to be performed and that the SP reach is to be performed thereafter.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 37 (B), the execution of the above-mentioned first digest effect is started, as in the case of the first type advance notice effect of giving an advance notice of the execution of the SP reach of the first mode. By executing such a first digest effect, it is possible to associate the player with the SP reach of the first aspect to the player, and it is consciously aware in advance that the SP reach of the first aspect will be performed as a subsequent SP reach. It is possible to recall.

  However, in the second type preview effect, after the execution of the first digest effect, a third subtitle image G205 shown in FIG. 37C is displayed in addition to the second title image G202 described above. The third subtitle image G <b> 205 is an image indicating the character string “Near”. Then, after such a second type notice effect is performed, the SP reach of the first aspect is executed as in the first type notice effect of giving notice of execution of the SP reach of the first aspect.

  In the second type advance notice effect, there is no relationship between the contents of the third subtitle image G205 and the contents of the subsequent SP reach (SP reach dedicated effect) of the first aspect. Therefore, unlike the first digest effect, it is difficult for the player to associate the SP reach of the first aspect with the display of the third subtitle image G205, and the first aspect is executed by the execution of the first digest effect (FIG. 37B). It is possible to make a player who has already been conscious (remembering) that SP reach will take place.

  In particular, the second type preview effect is different from the first type preview effect of previewing the execution of the SP reach of the first mode only in that the third subtitle image G205 is displayed instead of the first subtitle image G203. . Therefore, a player who is aware of the first type notice effect for giving notice of the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect is likely to be uncomfortable when the third subtitle image G205 for the second type notice effect is displayed. Therefore, it is possible to make the player who has received a sense of discomfort notice the end of the special figure fluctuation presentation thereafter.

7-3-3-3. The third type notice effect The third type notice effect is an effect that gives notice of an SP reach different from (contradicted with) the SP reach executed subsequently, unlike the first type notice effect described above. Specifically, before the execution of the SP reach of the second aspect described above, it is an effect that suggests the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect, not the execution of the SP reach of the second aspect. In other words, this is an effect that does not indicate the execution of the SP reach of the second mode to be executed thereafter.

  In the third type preview effect, the first title image G201 shown in FIG. 35 (A) is displayed as in the first type preview effect for previewing the execution of the SP reach according to the first aspect, and is shown in FIG. 35 (B). Execution of the first digest presentation is started. Furthermore, after the execution of the first digest effect, the second title image G202 and the first subtitle image G203 shown in FIG. 35 (C) are displayed.

  Therefore, it is possible to suggest to the player the execution of the special-effect time advance notice effect by the display of the first title image G201 and the second title image G202 as in the first-type advance notice effect for giving notice of the execution of the SP reach of the first embodiment. It has become. Then, by executing the first digest effect and displaying the first subtitle image G203, it is possible to associate the player with the SP reach of the first aspect. Therefore, it is possible to make the player more conscious (remembering) that the SP reach of the first aspect will be performed after this.

  However, unlike the first type preview effect for previewing the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect, the SP reach of the second aspect is executed after the execution of such a third type of preview effect. Therefore, at the time of execution of the SP reach of the second aspect, it is possible to poke an intention of the player who was conscious (remembering) that the SP reach of the first aspect is performed by the third kind notice effect. .

  In particular, a player who knows the first type notice effect for giving notice of the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect and the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect thereafter is the second aspect of the second aspect after the execution of the third type notice effect. It is easy to feel uncomfortable when the SP reach is done. Therefore, it is possible to make the player who has received a sense of discomfort notice the end of the special figure fluctuation presentation thereafter.

7-3-3-4. Fourth-class preview effect The fourth-type preview effect is an effect for previewing the execution of the SP reach (so-called "all rotation reach") of the third aspect. There are a first effect mode and a second effect mode in the modes of the fourth type preliminary effects. The fourth type notice effect of the first effect aspect is an effect in which the above-mentioned second title image G202 is subsequently displayed after the above-mentioned first title image G201 is displayed. On the other hand, the fourth type notice effect of the second effect aspect is an effect such as switching to the fourth type notice effect of the first effect aspect during execution of the above-described first type notice effect. That is, the fourth type notice effect of the second effect aspect is an effect (content) such that the above-mentioned special view fluctuation advance notice effect is performed a plurality of times.

  First, the fourth type notice effect of the first effect aspect will be described. In the fourth type notice effect of the first effect aspect, as shown in FIG. 38A, the above-described first title image G201 is displayed at the center of the display unit 50a. By the display of the first title image G201, it is possible to indicate to the player that the special view fluctuation advance notice effect is to be performed and that the SP reach is to be performed thereafter.

  After the display of the first title image G201, a fourth subtitle image G206 is displayed on the display unit 50a in addition to the above-described second title image G202 shown in FIG. 38 (B). The fourth subtitle image G206 is an image showing the character string "full rotation". Therefore, it is possible for the player to associate the SP reach ("all rotation reach") of the third aspect with such a fourth subtitle image G206.

  In the present embodiment, the SP reach of the third aspect is performed after such type 4 advance notice effect is performed. That is, after the execution of the fourth type advance notice effect of the first effect mode, the SP reach of the aspect which the player is conscious of is performed by the execution of the fourth type advance effect. Therefore, it is possible for the player to be convinced in advance of the execution of the SP reach of the third mode by the execution of the fourth type advance notice effect of the first effect mode.

  Next, the fourth type notice effect of the second effect aspect will be described. In the fourth type notice effect of the second effect aspect, first, the first title image G201 shown in FIG. 39A is displayed as in the first effect aspect. As a result, it is possible to suggest to the player the start of the execution of the special effect variation advance notice effect.

  However, after the display of the first title image G201, unlike the first effect mode, the execution of the above-described first digest effect shown in FIG. 39 (B) is started. The first digest effect is the same as the effect performed in the first type advance effect, the second type advance effect, and the third type advance effect for giving notice of the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect. By executing such a first digest effect, it is possible to associate the player with the SP reach of the first aspect to the player, and it is consciously aware in advance that the SP reach of the first aspect will be performed as a subsequent SP reach. It is possible to recall. In the present embodiment, a series of modes including the display of the first title image G201 shown in FIG. 39A and the first digest effect shown in FIG. It is called the first stage aspect).

  This first stage aspect is the first digest effect (FIG. 35B) from the display (FIG. 35A) of the first title image G201 of the first type preview effect for previewing the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect. It is the same as the contents until execution. That is, it is the same as the first half of the first type advance notice effect for giving notice of the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect. Therefore, it is difficult to determine from the previous stage aspect whether it is the fourth type notice effect of the second effect mode or the first type notice effect of notifying the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect.

  However, in the type 4 advance notice effect of the second effect aspect, the display is switched to the display of the first title image G201 shown in FIG. 39 (C) during execution of the first digest effect. Specifically, when the first digest effect having an execution period of 5 seconds is performed for 3 seconds, the first title image G201 shown in FIG. 39C is displayed. That is, the execution of the first digest effect is completed earlier than the first type of advance notice effect for giving notice of the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect, and the first title image G201 is displayed again. As a result, the player can determine that the special figure fluctuation advance notice effect being executed is not the first type advance notice effect for noticing the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect. Moreover, since the first title image G201 is displayed in the middle of the execution of the first digest effect as well as at the start of the various advance notice effects described above, the first type of notice effect of the first type of advance notice of the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect The execution is interrupted, and it is possible to show the player as if the execution of another special-character-variation advance notice effect was started again.

  After the display of the first title image G201 shown in FIG. 39C, the above-described second title image G202 and fourth subtitle image G206 shown in FIG. 39D are displayed. Therefore, it is possible to associate the player with the SP reach ("all rotation reach") of the third mode by the display of the fourth subtitle image G206, as in the fourth type preview effect of the first effect mode. In this embodiment, a series of display including the display of the first title image G201 shown in FIG. 39C, the display of the second title image G202 shown in FIG. 39D, and the display of the fourth subtitle image G206. The aspect is referred to as an aspect (post-stage aspect) of the rear part of the second effect aspect.

  In the latter stage aspect, the display of the first title image G201 shown in FIG. 38A and the display of the second title image G202 shown in FIG. , And the same as the display of the fourth subtitle image G206. That is, it is the same as the fourth type advance notice effect of the first effect aspect.

  As described above, in the fourth preview effect of the second effect aspect including the above-described first aspect and the second aspect, the execution of the first type preview effect for informing the execution of the SP reach of the first aspect is the first effect aspect on the way It is the production of the contents which are switched to the execution of the 4th kind notice production of. Therefore, at the time of execution of the fourth type notice effect of the second effect mode, the two special figure fluctuation advance notice effects (type 1 notice effect of giving notice of execution of the SP reach of the first mode, and the first effect mode It is possible to show the player as a combination of four types of preview effects). That is, by executing the fourth type notice effect of the second effect mode, it is possible to show the player that the special figure fluctuation advance notice effect (notice effect) is repeated twice.

  Further, in the first digest effect of FIG. 39B in the front stage aspect, it is possible to make the player be aware of SP reach of the first aspect as an SP reach to be executed thereafter, and a diagram in the rear stage aspect. In the display of the fourth subtitle image G206 of 39 (D), it is possible to make the SP reach of the third aspect be conscious (remembering). However, in the fourth notice effect of the second effect mode, since it is executed in the later stage after the execution in the earlier stage, it is already aware that the SP reach of the first mode is performed when executed in the later stage In addition to being able to poke off the player's intention, it is possible to remind again that the SP reach of the third aspect is performed instead of the SP reach of the first aspect.

7-3-4. Design Change Effect Next, the symbol change effect in the present embodiment will be described based on FIG. The symbol change effect is an effect capable of changing the numbers of the three sets of effect patterns EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 temporarily displayed temporarily after execution of the reach or SP reach. There are five types of symbol change effects of the present embodiment: first symbol change effect, second symbol change effect, third symbol change effect, fourth symbol change effect and fifth symbol change effect. The 1st design change production, the 2nd design change production, the 3rd design change production and the 4th design change production are effects that change the figures of the 3 sets of production design EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 before and after the execution. On the other hand, the fifth symbol change effect is an effect that does not change the numbers of the three sets of effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 before and after the execution.

  First, the first symbol change effect, the second symbol change effect, the third symbol change effect, and the fourth symbol change effect will be described. The first symbol change effect is an effect of changing the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 in the temporary stop display with one even number of three sets into one type of odd three sets. In addition, the second symbol change effect is an effect that changes the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 in the temporary stop display with one odd three sets other than the number "7" into three sets of the number "7". It is. Further, the third symbol change effect is an effect of changing the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 in the temporary stop display with one even number of three sets into three sets of the number "7". The fourth symbol change effect is an effect of changing the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 in the temporary stop display with one even number of three sets into one set of three odd numbers other than "7". .

  In the present embodiment, the first symbol change effect, the third symbol change effect or the fourth symbol change effect is executed when the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are being displayed for temporary stop with one even number of three sets. There are times when On the other hand, there is a case in which the second symbol change effect is executed when the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are in temporary stop display with one set of three odd numbers other than the number "7".

  In these first symbol change effect, second symbol change effect, third symbol change effect and fourth symbol change effect, first, a character image G120 consisting of a head and a speech image G121 showing a character string "chance!" And the display effect (first display effect) is performed (see FIG. 40A). FIG. 40A exemplifies the case of the first symbol change effect, the third symbol change effect or the fourth symbol change effect.

  Following the execution of the first display effect, a display effect (second display effect) using an image G122 indicating “blackout” as shown in FIG. 40 (B) is performed. As a result, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 in the temporary stop display disappear from the display unit 50a. Therefore, it is possible to surprise the player who has focused on the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 in the temporary stop display, and to make the player pay attention to the development of the effects thereafter.

  After execution of the second display effect, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are displayed on the display unit 50a again for temporary stop (see FIG. 40C). When the symbol change effect is the first symbol change effect, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are temporarily stopped and displayed with one set of three odd numbers. Also, when the symbol change effect is the second symbol change effect or the third symbol effect, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are temporarily stopped and displayed with three sets of the number "7". Then, in the case of the fourth symbol change effect, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are temporarily stopped and displayed with one set of three odd numbers other than the number "7". FIG. 40C exemplifies the case of the first symbol change effect, the third symbol change effect, or the fourth symbol change effect. In this embodiment, the symbol change effect ends when the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are re-displayed.

  After that, as shown in FIG. 40 (D), the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 re-displayed on the display unit 50a are displayed on a real stop. Then, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are also displayed on a standstill (see FIG. 40 (D)). This is the end of the special figure variation production.

  Next, the fifth symbol change effect will be described. This fifth symbol change effect is temporary stop display with one of even number of three sets of effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 during temporary stop display, or one of odd three sets of numbers other than the number "7" It is the production which does not change the production design EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 in the end. In the present embodiment, when one of the even numbered three sets of the effect design symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 is in the temporary stop display, or one odd number of three sets of the numbers other than “7”, the effect pattern EZ1 , EZ2 and EZ3 are displaying a temporary stop, there are times when the fifth symbol change effect is executed.

  In the fifth symbol change effect, first, as with the first symbol change effect to the fourth symbol change effect, the first display effect shown in FIG. 40 (A) and the above-described fifth signal shown in FIG. 40 (B) 2 Display effect is performed. By the execution of the second display effect, even the fifth symbol change effect surprises the player who has focused on the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 in the temporary stop display, and also focuses the player on the development of the effect after this It is possible to

  After execution of the second display effect, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 are temporarily stopped and displayed again on the display unit 50a. However, in the case of the fifth symbol change effect, as shown in FIG. 40 (E), the same effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 as before the execution of the second display effect are displayed temporarily. Specifically, in the case where the effect designs EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 before execution of the second display effect are one set of odd three other than the number "7", the same number "after execution of the second display effect A temporary stop display is performed again on one odd odd three-set effect design pattern EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 other than 7 ". In addition, in the case where the effect design patterns EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 before execution of the second display effect are one set of even number three, even after the execution of the second display effect, the same one type even number three effect pattern EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 are displayed again temporarily.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 40F, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 re-displayed on the display unit 50a are displayed on a full stop, and the small symbols KZ1, KZ2 and KZ3 are also displayed on a full stop.

7-3-5. Jackpot ending effect Next, jackpot ending effect in the present embodiment will be described based on FIG. The jackpot ending effect includes a first ending effect and a second ending effect.

  The first ending effect is an effect that suggests that the gaming state shifts to the low probability high base gaming state after the end of the jackpot game. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 41 (A), in addition to the above-mentioned right-handed image G108, an image G207 showing the character string “time reduction effect mode rush” is displayed on the display unit 50a. By the display of the image G207, it is possible for the player to grasp transition to the low probability high base gaming state after the end of the jackpot game.

  On the other hand, the second ending effect is an effect that suggests that the gaming state shifts to the high probability high base gaming state after the end of the jackpot game. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 41 (B), in addition to the above-mentioned right-handed image G108, an image G208 indicating the character string “probability change effect mode entry” is displayed on the display unit 50a. By the display of the image G208, it is possible for the player to grasp transition to the high probability / high base gaming state after the end of the jackpot game.

  The second ending effect is executed as a big hit ending effect accompanying the big hit game after the real stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 with the odd numbered numbers being arranged in a real stop. Therefore, the gaming state is advantageous for the player after the big hit game (the high game state (high), both from the stop mode of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 before the big hit game and from the second ending effect just before the end of the big hit game. It is possible to be confident that the game is changed to the probability high base gaming state).

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the special pattern variation pattern “P23”, “P26”, “P29”, “P34”, “P37”, “P86”, “P89”, “P92” or “P95” is performed. The second ending effect is executed also as the big end ending effect accompanying the large hit game. That is, it is executed as a big hit ending effect accompanying a part of big hit game after the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are displayed in real stop with three sets including even numbers. Therefore, from the stop mode of the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 before the jackpot game, after the jackpot game, poke off the will of the player who gave up when transitioning to the low probability high base gaming state which is more disadvantageous than the high probability high base gaming state It has become possible. Therefore, the player can enjoy the subsequent game while feeling great pleasure.

  In the first ending effect, the above special figure fluctuation pattern "P23", "P26", among the big hit games after the real stop display of the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 including an even number of three sets in real stop. "P29", "P34", "P37", "P86", "P89", "P92" and "P95" are executed as a jackpot ending associated with a jackpot game through a special pattern fluctuation pattern. Therefore, it is possible for the player to be sure that the gaming state is changed to the low probability high base gaming state after the jackpot game from the first ending effect.

7-3-6. Big hit game time notice production (type 5 notice production, promotion production)
Next, the jackpot game announcement effect (type 5 advance announcement effect, promotion effect) in the present embodiment will be described based on FIG. 42 (A). The big hit game time advance notice effect is a play that can be carried out as a round effect in the big hit game in the big hit game and is also a play that suggests the execution of the second ending effect thereafter.

  Specifically, as a round effect accompanying the execution of a predetermined round game (specifically, a 4R round game), the second title shown in FIG. In addition to the image G202, a fifth subtitle image G209 is displayed on the display unit 50a. The fifth subtitle image G209 is an image showing the character string “probable effect mode”. The fifth subtitle image G209 suggests the contents of the subsequent second ending effect (that is, the image G208 is displayed).

  After execution of such a jackpot game advance notice effect, the above-mentioned second ending effect shown in FIG. 42 (B) is executed.

  In the present embodiment, the player is convinced in advance (before the execution of the jackpot ending effect) that the second ending effect is performed as the subsequent jackpot ending effect by the display of the fifth subtitle image G209 shown in FIG. It is possible to

  Furthermore, during the execution of the jackpot game through the special figure fluctuation pattern “P23”, “P26”, “P29”, “P34”, “P37”, “P86”, “P89”, “P92” or “P95” mentioned above The second ending effect is executed on the. In other words, it is executed along with a part of the big hit game after the real stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 with three even numbers including the even numbers. Therefore, from the stop mode of the production symbols EZ1, EZ2 and EZ3 before the big hit game, after the big hit game, the player's sentiments are said to be shifted to a relatively disadvantageous gaming state (low probability high base gaming state) It is possible to poke. Therefore, the player can enjoy the subsequent game while feeling great pleasure during the round game.

8. Effects of the First Embodiment As described above in detail, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the first embodiment is normally played (low probability low base gaming state), low probability high base gaming state or high probability high base There is an SP reach of the first aspect and an SP reach of the second aspect suggesting that there is a possibility of changing from gaming state to jackpot gaming state. Then, there is special effect fluctuation advance notice effect (type 1 notice effect to type 3 notice effect) for giving notice of execution of the SP reach of the first aspect or execution of the SP reach of the second aspect. In addition, there is an SP reach of the third aspect that suggests that there is a change from the normal gaming state, the low probability high base gaming state or the high probability high base gaming state to the big hit gaming state, and the execution of the SP reach of the third aspect There are special effects at the time of special feature change (type 4 notice effect) to give notice of. Furthermore, there is a second ending effect that suggests that there is a change from the jackpot gaming state to the high probability high base gaming state, and the jackpot game announcement effect at the time of the jackpot to announce the execution of the second ending effect (type 5 preview effect, There is a promotion effect).

  Therefore, if the player is in the setting of the normal gaming state, the low probability high base gaming state or the high probability high base gaming state, the player can expect execution of the special feature fluctuation advance notice effect, and the jackpot gaming state is being set. If, for example, it is possible to expect the execution of the jackpot game announcement effect. That is, the player can expect execution of the notice effect even at the time of special figure fluctuation or at the time of jackpot game.

  Moreover, although various SP reach is effects that suggest a change (or possibility of change) of the game state to the jackpot game state, a second ending effect is an effect that suggests the change of the game state from the jackpot game state It is. That is, from the viewpoint of changing the gaming state regarding the jackpot gaming state, the meaning of the various SP reach and the second ending effect are different. Therefore, the notice effect of the present embodiment for giving notice of execution of various SP reach or giving notice of execution of the second ending effect can give notice of execution of effects having different meanings for each gaming state.

  The notice effect is an effect of displaying the second title image G202 and various subtitle images on the display unit 50a. Specifically, although the second title image G202 is the same among the various notice effects, the various subtitle images are different among the various notice effects. Moreover, the various subtitle images may sometimes suggest the effect contents of the subsequent SP reach or the effect contents of the second ending effect. Specifically, for example, the first subtitle image G203 of the first type preview effect suggests the effect contents of the SP reach of the first aspect after that, and the second subtitle image G204 of the first type preview effect is the second subtitle image G204 of the second type. The fourth subtitle image G206 of the fourth type preliminary presentation effect suggests the subsequent contents of the SP reach of the third aspect, suggesting the SP reach of the aspect. In addition, the fifth subtitle image G209 of the fifth preliminary announcement effect suggests the contents of the subsequent jackpot ending effect.

  Therefore, by the second title image G202, special effects at the time of the notice change (type 1 notice effect, type 2 notice effect, type 3 notice effect and type 4 notice effect), also the big hit game time notice effect (5 It is possible for the player to grasp that the same kind of notice effect is also the same kind of notice effect. In addition, when the various subtitle images suggest the contents of the suggested effects such as the first-type preliminary effects, the fourth-type preliminary effects and the fifth-type preliminary effects, the subsequent effects are displayed by the display of the various subtitle images. It is possible to make the player grasp in advance the contents of the effect of (SP reach or second ending effect).

  In particular, in this embodiment, in addition to the normal gaming state, the low probability high base gaming state or the high probability high base gaming state, the notice effect is sometimes performed in the big hit gaming state as well, so the player executes the big hit game. It is possible to expect the execution of the notice effect (prediction effect at the time of the jackpot game) during that time.

  In addition, when the fourth type notice effect of the second effect mode is executed while setting the normal gaming state, the low probability high base gaming state or the high probability high base gaming state, the jackpot from the gaming state being set thereafter It is changed to the game state. Therefore, the player can be confident in the subsequent change to the jackpot gaming state by execution of the fourth type notice effect of the second effect mode in the normal gaming state, low probability high base gaming state or high probability high base gaming state It has become.

  In addition, the fourth type notice effect of the second effect mode is such that the first type notice effect that suggests the execution of the SP reach of the first mode and the fourth type notice effect of the first effect mode are continuously performed. In other words, the special effect variation advance notice effect other than the type 4 advance notice effect of the second effect mode is performed a plurality of times. An aspect in which the game is performed a plurality of times more than once is likely to give an impact to the player, and to draw attention of the player. Therefore, the player can easily notice that the type 4 advance notice effect of the second effect mode is being performed.

  Also, for the fourth type notice effect of the second effect aspect, the former stage aspect as shown in FIGS. 39 (A) and 39 (B), and as shown in FIGS. 39 (C) and 39 (D), There is a second stage aspect that is the same as the fourth type preliminary presentation effect of the first presentation aspect. And a front | former stage aspect is an aspect in which a 1st type preliminary announcement production which suggests execution of SP reach of a 1st aspect different from the production | presentation content of SP reach performed after that is performed, and a back | latter stage is It is an aspect in which the fourth type notice effect of the first effect aspect is performed, which suggests the effect contents of the first effect to be executed thereafter.

  Therefore, it is possible to cause the player to be conscious (remembering) that the SP reach of the first aspect is performed with the effect contents suggested by the first stage aspect. Then, according to the subsequent second aspect, the player reaches the point where the SP reach of the first aspect is already realized, and the SP reach of the third aspect is not the SP reach of the first aspect. It is possible to be reminded (reminded) of what will be done.

  Further, as described above, the SP reach of the third aspect is "all rotation reach", and finally the production symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are displayed in real stop with three sets including the number "7". In the present embodiment, the main stop display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 in the three sets including the number "7" indicates the winning of "big hit symbol 1" or "big hit symbol 3". Therefore, the SP reach of the third aspect is effect content that suggests that the gaming state is changed to the high probability high base gaming state through the jackpot gaming state.

  As described above, the player can be made to grasp the transition to the big hit gaming state and the transition to the high probability high base gaming state thereafter by execution of the fourth kind notice effect of the second effect aspect including the second stage aspect. It has become. Therefore, it is possible to give surprise and joy (excitation) to the player who was aware that the subsequent SP reach is to be performed with the presentation content suggested by the front stage aspect.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 35 and FIG. 36, the first type notice effect is an effect that suggests the contents of the SP reach effect to be executed thereafter, whereas the second type notice effect is FIG. It is an effect of the mode using the 3rd subtitle picture G205 which does not suggest the contents of an effect of SP reach performed after that, as shown in a. In the case where the second type preview effect that does not indicate the contents of the subsequent SP reach is performed using the third subtitle image G205, the SP reach type is executed more than at the time of executing the first type preview effect. It is difficult for the player to recognize the contents of the effect. Therefore, it is easy for the player to notice the execution of the second type notice effect, and it is possible to grasp in advance that the gaming state is changed to the jackpot gaming state after the execution.

  In addition, as described above, the type 3 advance notice effect is an effect that suggests the effect contents of the SP reach different from the effect contents of the SP reach performed subsequently. Therefore, when such a third type notice effect is performed, the player can not find out the relevance between the SP reach and the third type notice effect more than when the first type notice effect is performed. It is easy to feel uncomfortable. Therefore, the player can easily notice the execution of such third type advance notice effect, and can grasp in advance that the gaming state is changed to the big hit gaming state after the execution.

  In addition, as described above, the fourth type notice effect of the second effect mode is the fourth type notice of the first effect mode in the middle of the execution of the first type notice effect that suggests the execution of the SP reach of the first mode. It is a mode switched to the execution of the effect. Then, the SP reach of the third aspect is performed thereafter. In the case where the execution of the first type notice effect that suggests the execution of the SP reach of the first mode is not switched to the execution of the type 4 advance notice effect of the first effect mode, after the execution of the first type notice effect. , SP reach of the first aspect is performed.

  Therefore, the SP of the first aspect is performed when the SP reach of the third aspect is performed by switching from the first-type advance notice effect that suggests execution of the SP reach of the first aspect to the fourth-type advance notice effect of the first effect aspect. The player who is already conscious (remembering) of the execution of the reach can be surprised and expect in advance the execution of the second suggestion effect.

  Also, the SP reach of the third aspect is an SP reach with a determined jackpot, which suggests that the possibility of a jackpot is relatively higher than that of the first aspect. Therefore, the player can improve the sense of expectation for the jackpot by switching from the first-type preview effect to suggest the execution of the SP reach of the first mode from the first-type preview effect of the first mode. ing.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 38A and FIG. 39C, when switching from the first type notice effect that suggests execution of the SP reach of the first mode to the fourth type notice effect of the first effect mode, The type 4 advance notice effect of the first effect aspect is started from the beginning. Therefore, it is possible to show the player that the advance notice effect is executed again. That is, it is possible to give the player an impression that the advance notice effect is repeated. Therefore, it is possible to make the player pay attention to the execution of the fourth type notice effect of the first effect mode corresponding to the repeated notice effect.

Moreover, the technical features in the first embodiment and the following modified example can be appropriately deleted if they are not described as essential in the present specification.

  In the first embodiment, the SP reach is a suggestion effect that suggests that there is a possibility of changing the gaming state. However, reach effects other than SP reach (for example, N reach and L reach) may be set as such suggested effects. In addition, the jackpot ending effect (the second ending effect) was taken as a suggestion effect that suggests that there is a possibility of changing the gaming state. However, in place of the jackpot ending effect, a round effect of a predetermined round or a jackpot opening effect may be used as such a suggested effect.

  Further, in the first embodiment, of the special figure fluctuation effects, during the execution of the normal fluctuation, that is, before the reach (notice effect production at the time of special figure fluctuation, first type notice effect, second type notice effect, third) It was set as the composition which can perform a seed notice production and a 4th class notice production). However, the configuration may be such that the advance notice effect can be executed after the reach of the special figure change effect.

  Specifically, for example, it may be configured to be switched to advance notice effect (special effect change advance notice effect) during execution of N reach and then to perform suggestion effect. Examples of suggested effects in this configuration include N reach, L reach, and SP reach that are different from the N reach performed earlier. Alternatively, for example, the advance notice may be performed in parallel during the N reach, and the suggestion effect may be performed after the execution of the notice effect. Examples of suggested effects in this configuration include N reach, L reach, and SP reach different from the N reach performed previously. Further, for example, the configuration may be such that the display effect is switched to the preliminary production during execution of the L reach, and then the suggested production is performed. Examples of the suggested effects in this configuration include L reach and SP reach different from the L reach performed previously.
