(About a definite change state)
The pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment has a function of providing a first bonus game state as a game state advantageous to the player after the end of the big hit game. Here, as the first bonus game state, the winning opportunity of the pachinko ball to the special winning opening 41 is a state where it increases compared to the state where the first bonus game state is not provided. Specifically, in the first bonus game state, the chance of winning a pachinko ball to the special winning opening 41 can be increased by changing the probability of winning a special figure from a low probability to a high probability. In the following description, the first bonus game state is referred to as a "probable change state" for the sake of convenience.

  The probability change function is a jackpot probability (big hit) after the end of the big hit game, provided that the type of the big hit symbol (special figure 1 or special figure 2) displayed as the fixed stop is a predetermined probability change symbol (specific symbol) The probability is a function of giving a probability change state in which the probability changes from low probability (168/65536 in the embodiment) to high probability (1516/65536 in the embodiment). Note that a state in which a definite change state is not given is referred to as a non-positive change state. A big hit to which a probability change state is given after the end of a big hit game is a probability change big hit, and a jackpot to which a probability change state is not given is a non probability change big hit. As described above, when the probability change state is given, the probability of winning the big hit fluctuates to a high probability and the hit is likely to occur, so the probability change state is advantageous for the player, and the player becomes the probability change big hit Playing games while expecting Further, in the embodiment, in the case of a big hit game in which the probability change state is given, the probability change state is continuously given until the next big hit game is generated (see FIG. 3). In addition, as a period when a definite change state is provided, it is not restricted to said thing.

The probability change flag is set to "0". In addition, when the period in which the probability variation state is given is the number of symbol variation effects (special figure variation display) (number of probability variation), the number of probability variation is set in the probability variation number counter in the storage area of the main control RAM 60c The value may be decremented by one for each symbol variation effect (every special image variation display), and the probability change flag may be set to “0” when it becomes “0”.

(About the change state)
In addition, the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment has a function of providing a second bonus game state (second game state) as a game state advantageous to the player after the big hit game is over. Here, as the second bonus game state, the winning opportunity of the pachinko ball to the second start winning opening 31 is increased compared to the state (first game state) in which the second bonus game state is not provided. It is an easy winning state (it becomes easy to win). Specifically, in the second bonus game state, (1) shortening the fluctuation time of the spread map fluctuation display, (2) changing the probability per spread map from low to high probability, (3) once per spread map By increasing the opening time of the opening / closing members 33, 33 for opening the second start winning opening 31, the winning opportunity of the pachinko ball to the second starting winning opening 31 can be increased. In the second bonus game state, the above (1) to (3) can be used alone or in combination. When increasing the opening time of the opening / closing members 33, 33 for opening the second starting winning opening 31 per one common drawing, the opening time of the opening / closing members 33, 33 is realized by simply extending It may be realized by increasing the number of times of opening / closing members 33, 33 for start, or these may be combined. In the embodiment, the second bonus game state is referred to as a variable state, and the variable state of the embodiment is set by combining the above (1) to (3). Further, a state in which no variable state is given is referred to as a non-variable state. That is, the variable state is a winning easy state in which the pachinko ball easily wins the second starting winning opening 31.

  Here, a period (hereinafter referred to as the number of times of variation) in which the variation state is given is determined according to the type of the big hit symbol (special figure 1 or special figure 2) that has won the big hit. Specifically, when the type of big hit symbol (special figure 1 or special symbol 2) is a predetermined symbol (symbol A, symbol B, symbol a, symbol b described later in the embodiment), a definite change state is given The number of times of variation is set so as to continuously give a variation state while being on. In addition, when the kind of big hit symbol (special figure 1 or special figure 2) is another symbol which is decided beforehand (the symbol C and the symbol c which it mentions later in the example), the number of times of variation given after the big hit game end is It is set to 50 times.

  Here, as described later, when the variable short state is given after the end of the big hit game, the variable short flag set in the storage area of the main control RAM 60c is set to "1" and the short short state is given. If not, the variable short flag is set to "0". Further, the number of times of variation is set in the number of times of variation counter set in the storage area of the main control RAM 60c, and the value of the counter is decremented by 1 for each of the symbol variation effects (every special figure variation display). When it becomes “,” the variable short flag is set to “0”.

(About the big hit game)
Next, the big hit game provided by the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment will be described. The jackpot game is set to be started after the jackpot symbol is displayed on the first special view display unit 50A or the second special view display unit 50B as a result of the special view change display, and the big hit game is won The special opening and closing member 43 of the special winning device 40 is opened and closed in accordance with the type of jackpot symbol).

It has become. One round game is ended when a specified number (for example, seven) of pachinko balls are won in the special winning opening 41 or a specified time (round game time) elapses from the start of each round game. In addition, during each round game in the big hit game, an interval time between rounds in which the special opening / closing member 43 is held in the closed state for a predetermined time is set.

  Here, the opening operation of the special opening / closing member 43 of the special winning device 40 in each round game of the big hit game is a condition that the pachinko ball is continuously fired at a predetermined firing interval (every 0.6 seconds in the embodiment) In a single opening operation (operation from opening to closing) a long time opening operation in which the specified number of pachinko balls defined in the round game continue to be open for a possible time for winning, and the long time opening The special opening / closing member 43 can be configured to have a short opening time set shorter than the operation, or the long time opening operation and the short time opening operation can be appropriately combined. In this short-time opening operation, under the condition that the pachinko ball is continuously fired at a predetermined shooting interval, the pachinko ball is set to a time substantially impossible to win in one opening operation, or Even if it is an open time in which the player can win a prize, it is possible to set a time when the winning of the pachinko balls of the specified number is substantially impossible. In the big hit game of the embodiment, as the opening operation of the special opening / closing member 43, one constituted only by the long opening operation is set, and the special opening / closing member 43 is opened for 25 seconds at maximum in the long opening operation. Are set to In addition, the interval time between rounds of the big hit game is set to "2.0 (seconds)".

(About the type of big hit game)
In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, one big hit game is selected from a plurality of big hit games (hit games) which are given different value to the player when the big hit judgment is won. A (hit game) is determined, and the determined big hit game is awarded. Here, which big hit game is awarded among multiple types of big hit games is determined based on the type of big hit symbol (special figure 1 and special figure 2) determined when winning the big hit judgment. It has become so. The special figure 1 as 100 kinds of big hit symbols that can be displayed on the first special figure display unit 50A in the embodiment is classified into three groups of the symbol A, the symbol B and the symbol C, and the first special figure display unit The big hit game according to the special figure 1 as a big hit symbol which is displayed on the fixed stop at 50A is given. Similarly, in the embodiment, special figures 2 as 100 types of big hit symbols that can be displayed on the second special figure display unit 50B are classified into three groups of a symbol a, a symbol b, and a symbol c. A big hit game according to the special figure 2 as a big hit symbol displayed as fixedly stopped on the figure display unit 50B is given. Here, in the special figure 1 as 100 types of big hit symbols, 20 types are assigned to the symbol A, 40 types to the symbol B, and 40 types to the symbol C, respectively. In addition, 50 special patterns 2 as 100 types of big hit symbols are distributed to 50 types for symbol a, 10 types for symbol b, and 40 types for symbol c. In addition, there is a case that only the big hit game is won after that the big hit judgment is decided and the big hit game is determined.

(About the relationship between the jackpot symbol and the jackpot game)
If the determination result of the big hit determination based on the first special view start reservation information (the winning of the pachinko ball to the first start winning opening 30) is affirmative (hit), the main control CPU 60a is a plurality of predetermined It is set to determine one big hit symbol from among the types of big hit symbols. Specifically, in the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, three types of big hit symbols (design A, based on the random numbers for special drawing determination obtained when the pachinko ball has won the first start winning opening 30) One of the symbols B and C) is designed to determine one big hit symbol. In the pachinko machine of the embodiment, when the determination result of the big hit determination based on the first special view start reservation information is affirmative, the symbol A as the big hit symbol is selected at a ratio of 20%, and as a big hit symbol at 40%. The symbol B is selected, and the determination value for special drawing determination is assigned so that the symbol C as a big hit symbol is selected at a ratio of 40%. Similarly, when the determination result of the big hit determination based on the second special view start reservation information (the winning of the pachinko ball to the second start winning opening 31) is a positive determination, the main control CPU 60a is predetermined It is set to determine one big hit design out of a plurality of types of big hit design. Specifically, in the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, three types of big hit symbols (design a, based on random numbers for special drawing determination obtained when the pachinko ball is won to the second start winning opening 31) One big hit design is determined from the design b and the design c). In the pachinko machine of the embodiment, if the determination result of the big hit determination based on the second special view start reserve information is a positive determination (hit), the symbol a as the big hit symbol is selected at a rate of 50%, a rate of 10% The symbol b as the big hit symbol is selected, and the determination value for special figure determination is assigned such that the symbol c as the big hit symbol is selected at a rate of 40%. In addition, the distribution ratio of the big hit design mentioned above is an example, and it is not restricted to this.

  Here, with regard to the jackpot game corresponding to the symbols A to C and the symbols a to c, common parts will be described first, and configurations specific to each jackpot game will be individually described. That is, each big hit game corresponding to the symbols A to C and the symbols a to c is set to cause the opening / closing member 43 to perform the opening operation to open the special winning opening 41 continuously from the start to the end of each round game It is done. That is, all round games of the big hit game are configured by a full open round game in which the opening / closing member 43 for special operation performs an opening operation to open from the start to the end of the round game. Therefore, in the big hit game, the special open / close member 43 is opened only once in each round game, and the special open / close member 43 repeats the open / close operation a predetermined number of times (prescribed number of rounds) in the entire big hit game . In each big hit game, as shown in FIG. 3, "25.0 (seconds)" is set as the round game time of one round game, and the special opening / closing member 43 is maximum at each round game.

In addition, the special figure fluctuation pattern for the big hit is a special figure fluctuation pattern that can be selected by the main control CPU 60a when the result of the big hit judgment is affirmative, and the special figure fluctuation pattern for the reach loss is the effect execution judgment described later. The special pattern fluctuation pattern that can be selected by the main control CPU 60a when the result is positive, and the special pattern fluctuation pattern for normal deviation is a special pattern fluctuation that can be selected by the main control CPU 60a when the result of the presentation execution determination is negative. It is a pattern. In addition, the reach effect is an effect performed from when the reach display is displayed in the symbol variation effect performed by the symbol display device 17 until the symbol combination of the decoration that is the big hit or the off is stopped and displayed. Hereinafter, the special pattern fluctuation pattern may be simply referred to as a fluctuation pattern.

  The types of special figure fluctuation patterns that can be determined by the main control CPU 60a based on winning on the start winning openings 30, 31 (triggered by establishment of predetermined conditions) will be specifically described with reference to FIG. A shift variation pattern P1 is normally set as a special figure variation pattern for a shift effect that can be determined when a big hit determination triggered by a winning on the start winning opening 30, 31 is a negative determination (loss). In the symbol variation presentation performed with the variation pattern P1 for out-of-place presentation, a normal background (normal variation image) is displayed as a background image. The normal background is a basic background image that is displayed as a normal symbol variation effect without a special effect, and is displayed as an effect for out of reach without a reach effect, or the symbol variation effect is completed. It means what is displayed before the next symbol variation production is started. In addition, the background is usually displayed in the period from the start of the change to the formation of the reach display in the symbol change effect with the reach effect.

  As shown in FIG. 9, as a special figure fluctuation pattern for out-of-reach reach effects that can be determined based on winning in start winning opening 30, 31, after executing normal reach effect (to be described later) A normal reach deviation fluctuation pattern P2 and a second normal reach deviation fluctuation pattern P3 are set, and a super reach deviation fluctuation pattern P4 in which a stop pattern is determined and stopped after executing super reach effect (described later) after normal reach effect is set.

Here, in the embodiment, a total of 124 integer values from “0” to “123” are set as random numbers for special drawing determination, and are updated one by one in a predetermined cycle (4 ms). There is. For each value of the special drawing determination random number, a random number corresponding to one kind of special drawing display showing the above-mentioned deviation and a random number corresponding to 100 kinds of special drawing display showing the winning of the big hit are set, Based on the value for the special drawing determination random number, the special drawing 1 displayed on the first special drawing display unit 50A as a fixed stop is specified, and the special drawing 2 displayed on the first special drawing display unit 50B. ing. That is, according to the value of the special drawing determination random number acquired triggered by the detection of the first start winning detection sensor 34, the special drawing 1 to be displayed on the first special view display unit 50A as a fixed stop is specified, and the second start winning The value of the special drawing determination random number acquired in response to the detection of the detection sensor 35 identifies the special drawing 2 that is displayed on the second special drawing display unit 50B in a fixed stop manner. Also, as described above, the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 as the big hit symbol are classified according to the type of the big hit game, and the special figure 1 or the special figure 2 is specified, so that the symbol variation effect is The type of jackpot game to be awarded after the end is specified. That is, the special drawing determination random number has a function as a random number that determines the type of the big hit game. In addition, as described above, whether or not a definite change state and a change short state are given after the big hit game is uniquely determined for each type of the big hit game, and the random number for special figure determination is the fixed change state and the short change state It also has a function as a random number that determines whether to assign or not. Furthermore, the grant period (number of variations) of the variable state to be granted after the big hit game is determined for each type of big hit game, and the random number for special drawing determination functions as a random number to determine the grant period of the variable state. Also have.

  In addition, the effect execution judgment random numbers perform effects that indicate the possibility that the hit display will be displayed when the judgment result in the above-mentioned big hit judgment is negative (when the big hit is not won). It is a random number used in the presentation execution determination (reach determination) of whether or not. In the embodiment, all 239 integer values from “0” to “238” are set as random numbers for effect execution determination, and are updated one by one in a predetermined cycle (4 ms). Here, as the production that suggests the possibility that the hit display will be displayed, the reach display performed in response to the reach display displayed in the process of the symbol change on the symbol display device 17 or the change stop from the change start of the decoration drawing Continuous notice effect (previous notice effect) that enables the fluctuation cycle to be performed several times in a row, and notice effect that indicates the possibility of being displayed on the symbol display device 17 or the lamp device 18 It includes a notice effect that suggests to the player the possibility that the hit display will be displayed by the light or the sound outputted from the speakers 19 and 81.

  The special figure variation pattern determination random number is a random number used when determining one special figure variation pattern from a plurality of special figure variation patterns specifying the contents of the effect in the symbol variation production. In the embodiment, a total of 229 integer values from “0” to “228” are set as random numbers for determining the special pattern fluctuation pattern, and are updated one by one in a predetermined cycle (4 ms). .

  In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the random number for special figure determination, the special figure determination random number, the effect execution determination random number, and the special figure fluctuation pattern determination random number are to the first start winning opening 30 or the second starting winning opening 31. The pachinko ball is temporarily stored in the main control RAM 60c triggered by the winning of the pachinko ball (more specifically, detection of the pachinko ball by the first start winning detection sensor 34 or the second start winning detection sensor 35) The main control CPU 60a acquires each random number at the same timing. In addition, each random number acquired with the pachinko ball winning at the first start winning opening 30 is the same as each random number obtained with the pachinko ball winning at the second starting winning opening 31 Is commonly used, and the main control CPU 60a acquires a random number corresponding to the timing of winning on each start winning opening 30, 31.

  Further, the main control CPU 60a is set to acquire various random numbers as passage detection information triggered by the pachinko ball passing through the gate member 48 (more specifically, the gate sensor 49 detects the pachinko ball). ing. Here, as random numbers acquired by the main control CPU 60a triggered by the detection of the gate sensor 49, various random numbers such as a random number for determination per common part and a random number for common part variation pattern determination are set. Then, the main control CPU 60a updates these random number values at a predetermined cycle (4 ms in the embodiment), temporarily stores the updated random number values in the main control RAM 60c, and rewrites the value before updating. A random number is acquired according to the timing when the detection signal of the sensor 49 is input to the main control CPU 60a. Further, the main control CPU 60a executes a timer update process that measures time. In the main control RAM 60c, various information (random number value, timer value, flag, etc.) that can be appropriately rewritten during operation of the pachinko machine 10 is stored (set).

  In addition, passage detection information (various random number values) acquired when a pachinko ball passes through the gate sensor 49 is temporarily stored in a predetermined common drawing storage area (storage area) of the main control RAM 60c as common drawing start reservation information. It is configured to be stored in memory. The common drawing start reservation information is stored in the main control RAM 60c when the common drawing storage area to be stored in the order of storing in the main control RAM 60c is determined and the common drawing fluctuation display is executed based on the common drawing start reservation information. The normal drawing start suspension information is read out by the main control CPU 60a in order.

  The random number per common drawing determination is a random number used in the per common drawing determination (lottery per common drawing) whether or not the opening of the second start winning opening 31 (per common drawing) is generated as a result of the common drawing fluctuation. . In the embodiment, a total of 65536 integer values from “0” to “65535” are set as random numbers for determination per common drawing, and are updated one by one in a predetermined cycle (4 ms). The random number for determining the common drawing fluctuation pattern is a random number used to determine the common drawing fluctuation pattern in which the fluctuation time of the common drawing fluctuation in the common drawing fluctuation display is determined. In the embodiment, a total of nine integer values “0” to “8” are set as random numbers for determining the common pattern fluctuation pattern, and are updated one by one in a predetermined cycle (4 ms). . When the pachinko ball passes through the gate member 48 (more specifically, the gate sensor 49 detects the pachinko ball), passage detection information temporarily stored in the main control RAM 60c (general drawing The main control CPU 60a is configured to acquire the hit determination random number, the common pattern variation pattern determination random number, etc.) at the same timing.

(About judgment value)
On the other hand, the main control ROM 60b stores a big hit determination value indicating that a big hit is to be generated as a result of the symbol variation effect. The big hit judgment value is a judgment value used in judgment (big hit judgment) whether it is a big hit or not using the judgment random number per special drawing, and it can be taken from "0" to "65535" which can be taken by the special random number per judgment. A predetermined number of determination values are determined from among the total of 65,536 integers. Here, as the jackpot determination value, the set number of determination values differs depending on whether or not the above-described probability change state is given at the time of performing the jackpot determination. Specifically, the number of jackpot determination values (1516 in the embodiment) set in the definite variation state is more than the number of jackpot determination values (168 in the embodiment) set in the non-probability variation state. Many are set. That is, by increasing the setting number of the jackpot determination value in the definite change state, the jackpot game is easily generated.

  Further, the main control ROM 60b stores a determination value for determining a special figure. When the result of the big hit determination is affirmative, the special figure determination use decision value causes the first special figure display unit 50A to display the fixed stop display on the special figure 1 or the second special view display unit 50B as the big hit symbol. It is a judgment value determined using a special figure determination random number for special figure 2 as a big hit design. Here, in the embodiment, an integer value of “0” to “123” corresponding to the 124 types of special drawing determination random numbers described above is set as the special drawing determination determination value, and the special drawing determination The special figure 1 and the special figure 2 are individually associated with each of the values.

  Further, the main control ROM 60b stores an effect execution determination value (reach determination value). The effect execution determination value indicates whether or not to execute an effect such as reach effect that suggests that the hit display may be displayed on the symbol display device 17 when the result of the hit determination (big hit determination) is negative. It is a determination value used in determination (reach lottery), and is determined from among all possible 239 integers from "0" to "238" that can be taken by the effect execution determination random number. That is, when the value of the acquired effect execution determination random number matches the set effect execution determination value, the main control CPU 60a determines to execute the effect such as the reach effect.

(Judgment value for determining special pattern fluctuation pattern)
Further, the main control ROM 60b stores a determination value for determining a special figure fluctuation pattern. The special figure fluctuation pattern determination determination value is a determination value for determining one special figure fluctuation pattern from among a plurality of types of special figure fluctuation patterns, and “0” which can be taken by the special figure fluctuation pattern determination random number A total of 229 integers of “228” are assigned a predetermined number of determination values for determining a special pattern variation pattern for each special pattern variation pattern. Then, the main control CPU 60a determines the special figure fluctuation pattern to which the determination value corresponding to the acquired special figure fluctuation pattern determination random number is assigned, whereby the contents and effect time of the effect executed in the symbol fluctuation effect (special figure The fluctuation pattern is identified.

  Here, in the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the probability that the main control CPU 60a determines the fluctuation pattern (decision probability in FIG. 9) is larger than the normal reach jackpot fluctuation patterns P5 and P6 when the jackpot determination result is affirmative. The reach big hit fluctuation pattern P7 is set to be higher. On the other hand, when the jackpot determination result is negative, the probability that the main control CPU 60a determines the fluctuation pattern is set to increase in the order of the super reach deviation fluctuation pattern P4, the normal reach deviation fluctuation patterns P2, 3 and the normal deviation fluctuation pattern P1. It is done. By setting the probability of determining each of the fluctuation patterns P1 to P4 and P5 to P7 in this manner, the reliability (expected degree) of the player to the jackpot is higher after the reach display is displayed. Furthermore, after the normal reach effect is performed, the background image becomes higher later than before the background image is switched from the background to the reach effect image. In other words, when the big hit determination result is positive (in the case of a hit), the main control CPU 60a does not specify the second period as the effect content from the variation patterns (P1, P2, P3, P5, P6), The second period is set to easily determine the fluctuation pattern (P4, P7) specified as the effect content.

  Further, the main control ROM 60b stores, as a result of the common drawing change effect, a common drawing determination value indicating that the common drawing is to be generated. The judgment value per common drawing is a judgment value used in the judgment (common judgment per common drawing) whether or not per common drawing using the judgment random number per common drawing, “0” which can be taken by the random number per judgment per common drawing A predetermined number of determination values are determined from among the total of 65,536 integers from '65535'. Here, the determination value per common drawing is different from the set number of determination values depending on whether or not the above-described variable state is applied at the time of making the determination per common drawing. Specifically, the number of judgment values per common drawing (in the example, 65535) set in the case of the variable short state is the number of judgment values per common drawing set in the case of the non-shortened state (example) Is set more than one). That is, by increasing the set number of determination values per common drawing in the variable / short state, the common drawing can easily occur.

  Further, the main control ROM 60b stores determination values for determining a common drawing fluctuation pattern corresponding to a plurality of kinds of common drawing fluctuation patterns. The determination value for determining the common drawing variation pattern is a determination value used to determine the common drawing variation pattern using the random number for determining the common drawing variation pattern, and the numerical value “0” to “possible” of the random number for determining the common drawing variation pattern. It is determined from among all nine integers up to 8 ". Then, a predetermined determination value is assigned to each of the common drawing fluctuation patterns, and the common drawing fluctuation pattern to which the common drawing fluctuation pattern determining judgment value corresponding to the acquired common drawing fluctuation pattern determining random number is assigned is the main control It is specified by the CPU 60a. Here, the determination value for determining the common drawing fluctuation pattern is the type and number of the common drawing fluctuation patterns to be assigned depending on whether the gaming state at the time of making the judgment per common drawing is the variable state or the non-shortening state. Are different. Specifically, in the embodiment, a determination value for determining a common drawing fluctuation pattern is assigned to one common drawing fluctuation pattern in the non-shortening state, and a common drawing to determine a fluctuation time (for example, 2000 ms) of a predetermined time While fluctuation patterns are determined, determination values for common drawing fluctuation pattern determination are assigned to a plurality (two in the example) common drawing fluctuation patterns in the case of fluctuation state, and each common drawing fluctuation pattern A common drawing fluctuation pattern that defines a fluctuation time (for example, 820 ms) of a predetermined time and a common drawing fluctuation pattern that determines a fluctuation time different from this (for example, 200 ms) at a ratio according to the number of determination values for common drawing fluctuation pattern determination for Any common drawing fluctuation pattern is determined.

(About effect control board 65)
The effect control board 65 is provided with an effect control CPU 65a. The effect control ROM 65b and the effect control RAM 65c are connected to the effect control CPU 65a as shown in FIG. Further, the effect control CPU 65a updates the values of various random numbers every predetermined cycle, stores (sets) the updated value in the setting area of the effect control RAM 65c, and rewrites the value before updating. The operation button 85 is connected to the effect control CPU 65a. Specifically, the operation button 85 includes a switch for outputting an operation signal when the operation button 85 is operated (pressed), and the switch is connected to the effect control CPU 65a.

  The effect control ROM 65b stores the effect pattern specifying the specific effect contents of the symbol change effect to be executed in the symbol change effect. The effect pattern is associated with the special figure fluctuation pattern, and the effect control CPU 65a determines the corresponding effect pattern based on the special figure fluctuation pattern determined by the main control CPU 60a. The effect pattern is not associated with the special pattern fluctuation pattern in a one-to-one relationship, and one of a plurality of effect patterns is determined for one special pattern fluctuation pattern. It has become. In addition, stop timing of the decoration figure of each design line L, C and R in the design fluctuation production is decided in the production pattern, the decoration figure is stopped in each line according to the stop timing which is decided with the production pattern In accordance with the stop of the decoration, appropriate sound effects are output from the speakers 19 and 81, and the lamp device 18 performs appropriate light emission. In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, as the effect pattern, a plurality of types of operation effect patterns 1a to 1c associated with the operation of the operation button 85 and a plurality of types of non-operation effect pattern 1k not associated with the operation of the operation button 85 Although 2k are set, the operation effect patterns 1a-1b and the non-operation effect patterns 1k-2k will be described later.

  The effect control program for integrally controlling the display control board 70, the lamp control board 72 and the sound control board 73 is stored in the effect control ROM 65b. When the effect control CPU 65a inputs various control commands, the effect control CPU 65a executes various controls based on the effect control program.

  That is, the main control CPU 60a has a function as random number acquiring means for acquiring various random numbers triggered by winning on the start winning opening 30, 31 and at the start of the symbol variation effect, the random numbers acquired by the random number acquiring means A function as a hit judging means for making a hit judgment whether or not a hit game (big hit game) is given by judging whether the value matches a predetermined hit judgment value (big hit judgment value) or not Is equipped. In addition, the hit determination means, which determines whether or not to be hit in response to a winning on the start winning openings 30, 31; a hit determining means for determining a hit type to be awarded from a plurality of types of hits; The main control CPU 60a has respective functions as a winning game awarding means for granting a hit game after completion of the special figure change display (after the end of the symbol change production, after the change game). The main control CPU 60a determines a special figure fluctuation pattern from among a plurality of special figure fluctuation patterns (variation patterns) stored by the main control ROM 60b based on winning on the start winning hole 30, 31. It has a function as fluctuation pattern determination means (variation pattern determination means). In addition, the main control CPU 60a functions as a probability variation determination unit that determines whether or not to apply a probability variation state in which the probability that a hit occurs (the probability that the determination result by the hit determination unit is a hit) is higher than usual. At the same time, it is configured to function as a probability variation giving means for giving a probability variation state after the end of the hit game. Here, the main control CPU 60a is configured to determine whether or not to apply a positive change state only when a hit occurs (when the determination result of the hit determination means is a hit). In addition, that a pachinko ball is won in the start winning opening 30, 31 is set as the establishment of the start condition (predetermined condition), and the main control CPU 60a is hit as the determination means when the start condition (predetermined condition) is met. While performing determination, it is determined from a plurality of types of fluctuation patterns that specify the contents of the effect of the fluctuation game.

  Furthermore, the main control CPU 60a, when a hit occurs (if the determination result of the hit determination means is a hit), the probability of winning a pachinko ball to the second start winning opening 31 is a high probability of improving the winning rate state ( It functions as a winning rate improvement state determination unit that determines whether or not to apply variation state), and when a winning rate improvement state is applied, a winning rate improvement state provision period for determining a period for applying a winning rate improvement state It functions as a determination means, and also functions as a variable short state giving means for giving a variable short state only during a period in which the determined winning rate improvement state is given after the end of the winning game. Here, the main control CPU 60a waits until the special figure fluctuation display (design fluctuation effect presentation) is performed a predetermined number of times after the end of the hit game, or until the next hit game is awarded. One of the periods is selected as the winning rate improvement state provision period. As described above, when the hit determination is hit (positive determination), the main control CPU 60a is based on the winning on the start winning opening 30, 31 and in a benefit state (probable change state, change short) advantageous to the player after the hit game. It has a function as a privilege state determination means for determining whether or not to give a state). Then, the main control CPU 60a that determines whether or not to give the player a benefit state (probable change state, change state) advantageous to the player after the winning game is a game state from among a plurality of types of game states provided in the pachinko machine 10 It has a function as game state control means to set. Further, the main control RAM 60c is acquired while the symbol variation effect is being performed by the symbol display device 17 (that is, while the special view variation display is being performed by the first and second special view display portions 50A and 50B). It functions as a hold storage unit capable of storing a plurality of winning combination information as start hold information. Specifically, while the variable display is being performed by the display means (the symbol display device 17 and the first special view display unit 50A), the winning information acquired triggered by the detection of the first start winning detection sensor 34 is Triggered by the detection of the second start winning detection sensor 35 while the fluctuation display is being performed by the first hold storage means and the display means (the symbol display device 17 and the second special view display unit 50B) which store as start hold information It functions as a second hold storage unit that stores the acquired winning information as second start hold information.

(About processing with main control board)
Next, processing executed by the main control CPU 60a of the main control board 60 based on the control program will be described. The main control CPU 60a executes an initial setting process such as a security check upon power-on of the pachinko machine 10, and then shifts to a state in which the pachinko machine 10 can play a game. In this state, normal processing is performed at a predetermined control cycle (every 4 milliseconds). Here, in the normal processing executed by the main control CPU 60a, random number updating processing for updating various random numbers, timer updating processing for measuring time, command input / output processing for inputting / outputting various commands, game information display unit The processing concerning the display contents of the flag, the setting processing of the flag, the processing concerning the execution of the big hit game, etc. are executed, and the special drawing input processing about winning in the starting part (start winning opening) and the special drawing per judgment (big hit judgment) The figure start process is to be executed. Hereinafter, the special view input process and the special view start process will be specifically described.

(About special map input processing)
In the special view input process, as shown in FIG. 5, the main control CPU 60a determines whether or not a pachinko ball has won in the first starting winning opening 30 (step A11). That is, in step A11, the main control CPU 60a determines whether or not a detection signal output when the first start winning detection sensor 34 corresponding to the first start winning opening 30 detects a pachinko ball is input. If the determination result in step A11 is negative, the process proceeds to step A15. If the determination result in step A11 is affirmative, the main control CPU 60a determines whether or not the number of reservations of the first special view start suspension information stored in the main control RAM 60c is less than the upper limit number 4 ( Step A12). If the determination result in step A12 is negative (that is, the number of reservations of the first special view start suspension information is 4), the main control CPU 60a proceeds to step A15.

  If the determination result in step A12 is affirmative (the number of reservations for the first special view start reservation information <4), the number of the first special view start reservation information is increased by one and the first special information stored in the main control RAM 60c is stored. The number of pendings of the figure start pending information is rewritten (step A13). Subsequently, winning information (value of random number for determination for special figure, value of random number for determining special figure, value of random number for effect execution determination, value of various random numbers such as random number for special pattern fluctuation pattern determination) from main control RAM 60c The main control CPU 60a reads out and sets the winning information (value of random number) in a predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 60c associated with the number of holdings as first special drawing start holding information (step A14). Thus, the process proceeds to step A15.

  Further, in step A15, the main control CPU 60a determines whether or not the pachinko ball has won in the second starting winning opening 31. That is, in step A15, the main control CPU 60a determines whether or not a detection signal output when the second start winning detection sensor 35 corresponding to the second start winning opening 31 detects a pachinko ball is input. When the determination result in step A15 is negative, the special map input process is ended. If the determination result in step A15 is affirmative, the main control CPU 60a determines whether or not the number of reservations of the second special view start suspension information stored in the main control RAM 60c is less than the upper limit number 4 ( Step A16). If the determination result in step A16 is negative (that is, the number of reservations for the second special view start suspension information is 4), the main control CPU 60a ends the special view input process.

  If the determination result in step A16 is affirmative (the number of reservations of the second special view start suspension information <4), the number of the second special view start suspension information is increased by one and the second special function stored by the main control RAM 60c The number of pendings of the start-up pending information is rewritten (step A17). Subsequently, winning information (value of random number for determination for special figure, value of random number for determining special figure, value of random number for effect execution determination, value of various random numbers such as random number for special pattern fluctuation pattern determination) The main control CPU 60a reads out and sets the winning information (value of random number) in a predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 60c associated with the number of holdings as second special drawing start holding information (step A18). Thus, the special map input process is ended.

(About special processing start processing)
Next, special drawing start processing will be described based on FIG. The main control CPU 60a executes the special drawing start process every predetermined cycle (4 ms in the embodiment). In the special view start process, the main control CPU 60a determines whether the special view 1 or the special view 2 is being variably displayed in the special view display portions 50A, 50B and the symbol display device 17, or whether the big hit is in play. To do (step B11). If the determination result in step B11 is affirmative, the main control CPU 60a ends the special drawing start process. On the other hand, if the determination result in step B11 is negative, the number of reservations for the second special view start suspension information is read (step B12), and the number of reservations for the second special view startup suspension information is greater than "0". It is determined (step B13). If the determination result in step B13 is negative (if the number of holdings of the second special view start suspension information is 0), the main control CPU 60a proceeds to the process of step B16. Further, when the determination result in step B13 is affirmative (the number of holdings of the second special view start suspension information> 0), the main control CPU 60a stores the special view stored in a predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 60c. In the variation processing flag, a value "1" indicating that the second special figure variation presentation is to be performed is set. Next, the main control CPU 60a subtracts one from the number of reservations of the second special view start reservation information (step B14), and the second special information stored in the predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 60c associated with the number of reservations. The main control CPU 60a acquires the figure start reservation information (value of random number for determination for special figure, value of random number for special figure determination, value of random number for presentation execution determination, value of various random numbers such as special figure variation pattern determination random number) (Step B15).

  Here, the main control CPU 60a acquires second special view start reservation information (random number) from the first special view storage area in which the second special view start reservation information stored earliest is stored. Then, after the main control CPU 60a acquires the random number associated with the second special view start reservation information, the second special view storage area in which the second special view start reservation information stored second earlier is stored is stored. 2) The special view start reservation information (random number) is stored in the first special view storage area. Similarly, the main control CPU 60a stores second special view start reserve information (random number) of the third special view storage area in which the second special view start reserve information stored third earlier is stored. The second special view start reserve information (random number) of the fourth special view storage area in which the second special view start reserve information stored in the area and stored the fourth fastest (that is, the newest) is stored in the third special It is stored in the figure storage area. That is, the second special view start suspension information is read out by the main control CPU 60a in the order stored in the main control RAM 60c. Further, the main control CPU 60a changes the display of the second special view suspension display unit 53 so as to correspond to the number of suspension of the second special view start suspension information after subtraction.

  When the various random numbers as the second special view start reservation information are acquired by the process of the step B15, as shown in FIG. 7, the main control CPU 60a determines the acquired value of the random number per determination for the special view A big hit determination (hit lottery) is performed to determine whether or not it matches the stored big hit determination value (step B22). As described above, the probability (that is, the jackpot probability) that the judgment result of the big hit judgment is positive in the non-probability state (in the low probability state) is set to 168/65536, and it is in the positive state (high probability) The probability (big hit probability) that the judgment result is positive at the time of (1) is set to 1516/65536. Then, if the determination result of the big hit determination in step B22 is affirmative (if a big hit occurs), "1" is set in the hit flag indicating that the variation is a big hit (step B23). Then, the main control CPU 60a determines a final stop symbol (special figure 2) to be a big hit symbol to be displayed on the second special figure display unit 50B as a decision stop based on the acquired special figure determination random number for special figure determination (step B24). ). Here, since the big hit design of the special figure 2 is associated with the value of the special figure determination random number, the main control CPU 60a selects the special figure 2 associated with the acquired special figure determination random number. It will decide the jackpot design by making a decision. Further, in the case of the big hit symbol giving a positive variation state, the main control CPU 60a sets a positive variation flag indicating a positive variation state to “1” after the end of the big hit game and in the case of a big hit symbol not giving a positive variation state. Set the definite change flag to "0". Also, in the case of a big hit symbol giving a variable state short jackpot symbol, set the variable short flag showing the variable short state to "1" after the end of the big hit game, in the case of a big hit symbol not giving a variable short state Set the variable short flag to "0". The variable short flag is set to “0” when the condition for ending the variable short is satisfied. When the jackpot symbol (special drawing) is determined, the main control CPU 60a determines one special drawing fluctuation pattern from among the drawing fluctuation patterns for hitting based on the value of the special drawing fluctuation pattern determining random number (step B25) ).

  On the other hand, if the determination result of the big hit determination in step B22 is negative (if it is not a big hit), the main control CPU 60a performs effect execution determination (reach determination) to determine whether or not reach effect is to be executed ( Step B27). In the embodiment, the main control CPU 60a performs the winning determination based on whether or not the value of the effect execution determination random number acquired from the main control RAM 60c in the process of step B15 matches the effect execution determination value. Then, if the determination result in step B27 is affirmative (in the case of performing reach effect), the main control CPU 60a sets the final stop symbol (special symbol for the stop symbol displayed on the second special view display unit 50B) It determines as FIG. 2) (step B28). Next, the main control CPU 60a determines one special figure fluctuation pattern out of the special figure fluctuation patterns for out-of-reach reach based on the value of the special figure fluctuation pattern determining random number (step B29).

  Further, when the determination result of the effect execution determination in step B27 is negative (when the reach effect is not performed), the main control CPU 60a is an out-of-design symbol that is displayed on the second special view display unit 50B as a fixed stop Is determined as the final stop symbol (special figure 2) (step B30). Next, the main control CPU 60a determines one special figure fluctuation pattern out of the special figure fluctuation patterns for outliers based on the value of the special figure fluctuation pattern determining random number (step B31).

  Here, the main control CPU 60a that has determined the special figure fluctuation pattern and the final stop symbol (special figure 2) in steps B25, B29, B31 sets a predetermined control command (step B26). Specifically, the main control CPU 60a designates the determined special figure fluctuation pattern and instructs the start of the symbol fluctuation and also designates the special figure 2 to be the final stop pattern. 2 Set the specified command. Then, the main control CPU 60a ends the special drawing start process.

  On the other hand, if the determination result in step B13 is negative (if the number of reservations for the second special view start suspension information = 0), the number of suspension of the first special view startup suspension information is read (step B16). It is determined whether the number of holdings of the figure start reservation information is larger than "0" (step B17). If the determination result in step B17 is affirmative (the number of reservations for the first special view start suspension information> 0), the main control CPU 60a changes the special view fluctuation stored in the predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 60c. The processing flag is set to a value “0” indicating that the first special figure fluctuation effect is to be performed. Next, the main control CPU 60a subtracts 1 from the number of holdings of the first special view start reservation information (step B18), and is stored in a predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 60c associated with the first special view start reservation information. The main control CPU 60a acquires the value of the judgment random number per special drawing, the value of the special drawing determination random number, the value of the effect execution judgment random number, and the value of the special drawing fluctuation pattern determination random number (step B19). Execute hit determination processing. That is, in the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the first start winning opening is stored when the second special view start suspension information acquired triggered by the winning of the second starting winning opening 31 is stored in the main control RAM 60c. Even if the first special drawing start reservation information acquired triggered by winning in 30 is stored in the main control RAM 60c, it is possible to preferentially execute the symbol variation effect based on the second special drawing start reservation information It has become.

  Here, the main control CPU 60a acquires first special view start reservation information (random number) from the first special view storage area in which the first special view start reservation information stored earliest is stored. Then, after the main control CPU 60a acquires the random number associated with the first special view start reservation information, the second special view storage area in which the first special view start reservation information stored second earlier is stored is stored. (1) The special drawing start reservation information (random number) is stored in the first special drawing storage area. Similarly, the main control CPU 60a stores the first special view start reserve information (random number) of the third special view storage area in which the first special view start reserve information stored third earlier is stored. The first special drawing start reservation information (random number) of the fourth special drawing storage area in which the first special drawing start reservation information stored in the area and stored fourth fastest (that is, the newest) is stored in the third special It is stored in the figure storage area. That is, the first special view start suspension information is read out by the main control CPU 60a in the order stored in the main control RAM 60c. Further, the main control CPU 60a changes the display of the first special view hold display unit 52 so as to correspond to the hold number of the first special view start hold information after the subtraction.

  When various random numbers as first special view start reservation information are acquired by the process of the step B19, as shown in FIG. 8, the main control CPU 60a determines the acquired value of the judgment random number per special view in the main control ROM 60b. A big hit determination (hit lottery) is performed to determine whether or not it matches the stored big hit determination value (step B32). Then, if the determination result of the big hit determination in step B32 is a big hit (if a big hit game occurs), "1" indicating the big hit fluctuation is set in the hit flag (step B33). Then, the main control CPU 60a determines a final stop symbol (special figure 1) to be a big hit symbol to be displayed on the first special figure display unit 50A as a decision stop based on the acquired special figure determination random number value (step B34). ). Here, since the big hit symbol of the special figure 1 is associated with the value of the special figure determination random number, the main control CPU 60a selects the special figure 1 associated with the acquired special figure determination random number. The big hit design will be determined by deciding the. Then, when the big hit symbol (special figure 1) is determined, the main control CPU 60a determines one special figure variation pattern from among the special figure variation patterns for big hit based on the value of the special figure variation pattern determination random number. To do (step B35).

  On the other hand, if the determination result of the big hit determination in step B32 is negative (if it is not a big hit), the main control CPU 60a performs effect execution determination (reach determination) to determine whether or not reach effect is to be executed ( Step B37). In the embodiment, the main control CPU 60a performs the winning determination based on whether or not the value of the effect execution determination random number acquired from the main control RAM 60c at the time of the process of step B19 matches the effect execution determination value. Then, if the determination result in step B37 is affirmative (in the case of performing reach effect), the main control CPU 60a sets the final stop symbol (special symbol for the stop symbol displayed on the first special view display unit 50A) It determines as FIG. 1) (step B38). Next, the main control CPU 60a determines one special figure fluctuation pattern out of the special figure fluctuation patterns for out-of-reach reach based on the value of the special figure fluctuation pattern determining random number (step B39).

  Further, when the determination result of the effect execution determination in step B37 is negative (in the case where the reach effect is not performed), the main control CPU 60a is an out pattern that is displayed on the first special view display unit 50A as a fixed stop Is determined as the final stop symbol (special figure 1) (step B40). Next, the main control CPU 60a determines one special figure fluctuation pattern out of the special figure fluctuation patterns for outliers based on the value of the special figure fluctuation pattern determining random number (step B41).

  Here, the main control CPU 60a that has determined the special figure fluctuation pattern and the final stop symbol (special figure 1) in steps B35, B39, B41 sets a predetermined control command (step B36). Specifically, the main control CPU 60a designates the determined special figure fluctuation pattern and instructs the start of the symbol fluctuation and also designates the special figure 1 to be the final stop design. 1 Set the specified command. Then, the main control CPU 60a ends the special drawing start process.

  On the other hand, if the determination result in step B17 is negative (if the number of reservations in the first special view start suspension information is 0), has the main control CPU 60a already output a demonstration designation command to start execution of the demonstration effect? It is determined whether the determination is negative (step B20), and if the determination result is negative, the demonstration designation command is output and the special view start process is ended (step B21). If the determination result in step B20 is affirmative (if the demonstration designation command has already been output), the main control CPU 60a ends the special view start process.

  Here, each control command set in the special view start process is output to the effect control board 65 by the main control CPU 60a in the command input / output process in the above-described normal process, and in the special view fluctuation pattern in the timer update process. Main control CPU 60a starts measurement of the identified fluctuation time, and at the same time, main control CPU 60a controls corresponding special view display portions 50A and 50B to start special view fluctuation display. Then, the main control CPU 60a instructs the fluctuation stop of the decoration drawing based on the fluctuation time defined in the designated special drawing fluctuation pattern, and effects control of all the symbol stop commands for displaying the symbol combination in the decision stop display Output to the substrate 65.

  Here, in the case of the big hit symbol (big hit symbol A, B, a, b) of the type to which the main control CPU 60a gives the big hit symbol a definite change state, a probability change state indicating the positive change state after the end of the big hit game Set the flag to "1". The main control CPU 60a is configured to set the probability change flag to “0” in the flag setting process when the probability change state end condition is satisfied. In the embodiment, the termination condition of the probability change state is to be satisfied when the next big hit game starts, so that the probability change flag is set to "0" at the timing when the main control CPU 60a starts the big hit game. It has become. That is, the main control CPU 60a can specify the game state by referring to the probability change flag as the game state specification information.

(About presentation control)
Next, the process performed by the effect control board 65 will be described. The effect control CPU 65a of the effect control board 65 determines the effect pattern to be executed in the symbol change effect based on the special view change pattern specification command input from the main control CPU 60a, and specifies the determined effect pattern The designation command is output to the display control board 70, the lamp control board 72, the sound control board 73 and the like. The effect control ROM 65b stores a plurality of effect patterns that specify effect contents corresponding to each effect mode, and stores effect pattern distribution determination values corresponding to each effect pattern. The judgment value for effect pattern distribution is a judgment value used by the effect control CPU 65a to determine the effect pattern using the effect pattern distribution random number, and a predetermined judgment value is assigned for each effect pattern, and is acquired. The effect pattern to which the determination value for effect pattern distribution corresponding to the effect pattern distribution random number is assigned is specified. Then, the effect control CPU 65a determines an effect pattern corresponding to the special figure fluctuation pattern specification command input from the main control CPU 60a based on the setting value of the effect mode flag input. That is, the effect control CPU 65a has a function as effect pattern determination means for determining a predetermined effect pattern from among a plurality of effect patterns according to the effect mode based on the special view fluctuation pattern determined by the main control CPU 60a. doing.

  In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, there are provided three types of gaming states: normal gaming state (non-probability change / non-short play state), probability change / short play state and non-probability change / short play state. As an effect mode corresponding to each gaming state, a normal effect mode, a probability change effect mode, and a variation effect mode are set. In addition, the effect mode corresponding to each gaming state can be made to recognize the gaming state by the background image etc. displayed on the display section 17a of the symbol display device 17, but it is a definite change state It is possible to provide a latent presentation mode in which a background image or the like that can not be identified is displayed. Further, the effect mode corresponding to the game state is not limited to one to one.

Describing the specific configuration for determining the effect pattern, the effect control CPU 65a uses the random number and the determination value stored in the effect control ROM 65b to select the type of effect pattern as the first operation effect pattern 1a, the second operation. The effect pattern 1b, the third operation effect pattern 1c, the first non-operation effect pattern 1k, and the second non-operation effect pattern 2k are determined by lottery. The random number and the determination value used when determining the type of the effect pattern may be referred to as a random number for effect pattern lottery and a determination value for effect pattern lottery. The effect pattern lottery random number is set to a predetermined number of integer values, and the effect control CPU 65a updates the effect pattern lottery random number one by one at a predetermined cycle (4 ms), and updates the updated value to the effect control RAM 65c. It is configured to temporarily store and rewrite the value before updating. In the effect tables V1A and L1A, each effect pattern of the first operation effect pattern 1a, the second operation effect pattern 1b, the third operation effect pattern 1c, the first non-operation effect pattern 1k and the second non-operation effect pattern 2k Corresponding to the type of the effect pattern lottery random number, an integer value that can be taken of the effect pattern lottery effect is distributed.

The type of effect pattern is determined in comparison with the effect pattern lottery determination value set in.

(About the distribution ratio of the judgment value for the effect pattern lottery in the effect table)
Next, the distribution ratio of the determination values for effect pattern lottery in each of the first effect tables V1A and L1A will be specifically described.

(Distribution ratio of production table V1A for a hit)
In the winning effect table V1A, the first operation effect pattern 1a is determined at a rate of 40%, the second operation effect pattern 1b is determined at a rate of 25%, and the third operation effect pattern 1c is determined at a rate of 15%. The first non-operation effect pattern 1k is determined at a rate of 15%, and the second non-operation effect pattern 2k is set at a rate of 5%. That is, with regard to the determination ratio of each effect pattern when referring to the first effect table V1A for winning, the operation system effect patterns such as the first to third operation effect patterns 1a to 1c and the first non-operation effect pattern 1k and the first 2 When comparing with the non-operation-based effect pattern such as the non-operation-based effect pattern 2k, the ratio at which the operation-based effect pattern is determined is 80%, and the ratio at which the non-operation-based effect pattern is determined is set to 20%. The operation system effect pattern is easier to be determined than the non-operation system effect pattern. In addition, when only a plurality of types of operation system effect patterns are compared, the determination ratio increases in the order of the third operation effect pattern 1c, the second operation effect pattern 1b, and the first operation effect pattern 1a (1c <1b <1a). It is set.

(Distribution ratio of out-of-order production table L1A)
In the effect table L1A for release, the first operation effect pattern 1a is determined at a rate of 2%, the second operation effect pattern 1b is determined at a rate of 10%, and the third operation effect pattern 1c is determined at a rate of 15%. The first non-operation effect pattern 1k is determined at a rate of 20%, and the second non-operation effect pattern 2k is set at a rate of 47%. That is, with regard to the determination ratio of each effect pattern when referring to the effect table L1A for release, the operation system effect patterns such as the first to third operation effect patterns 1a to 1c and the first non-operation effect pattern 1k and the second non-operation effect pattern When comparing with the non-operation type effect pattern such as the operation effect pattern 2k, the ratio at which the operation type effect pattern is determined is 37%, and the ratio at which the non-operation type effect pattern is determined is set to 67%. The non-operation type effect pattern is more easily determined than the effect pattern. In addition, when comparing only a plurality of types of operation system effect patterns, the determination ratio increases in the order of the first operation effect pattern 1a, the second operation effect pattern 1b, and the third operation effect pattern 1c (1a <1b <1c). It is set.

  That is, in the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, in each of the effect tables V1A, L1A, the ratio at which the operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c are determined is set to be different, and the operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c are set. As the effect table in which a plurality of types of effects including the button effects specified in are set, a plurality of types are provided in which the ratio at which the effect control CPU 65a determines the button effects is different.

(Regarding the relationship between the determination ratio of the operation-based effect pattern in the hit effect table and the shift effect table)
Next, the relationship of the ratio at which the operation system effect patterns 1a, 1b, and 1c in the winning effect table V1A and the off effect table L1A are determined will be described. Here, in the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the effect control CPU 65a receives a fluctuation pattern designation command for specifying the super reach deviation fluctuation pattern P4 or the super reach big hit fluctuation pattern P7 from the main control CPU 60a. The effect pattern is determined with reference to the effect table V1A for effect or the effect table L1A for removal. Specifically, when the jackpot determination result is affirmative (hit) (when a variation pattern designation command for specifying the super reach jackpot variation pattern P7 is input), the effect pattern is determined with reference to the winning effect table V1A. If the jackpot determination result is negative (missing) (if the variation pattern designating command specifying the super reach deviation variation pattern P4 is input), it is set to determine the rendering pattern with reference to the misalignment rendering table L1A. There is.

  As described above, when the ratio (probability) in which the first to third operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c are determined in the winning effect table V1A and the off effect table L1A is compared, the case of the big hit determination result is positive The ratio at which the effect control CPU 65a determines the first operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, and 1c is set to increase in the order of the third operation effect pattern 1c, the second operation effect pattern 1b, and the first operation effect pattern 1a. . On the other hand, the ratio (probability) that the effect control CPU 65a determines the first to third operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c when the big hit determination result is negative is the first operation effect pattern 1a, the second operation effect pattern 1b, It is set to become higher in the order of the third operation effect pattern 1c. By setting the ratio for determining the first to third operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c in this manner, the reliability (expected degree) of the player for the big hit is the third operation effect pattern 1c, the second operation. It becomes high (it changes with kinds) in order of the production | presentation pattern 1b and the 1st operation production | presentation pattern 1a. Note that the ratio at which the first to third operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c are determined with reference to the winning effect table V1A and the offset effect table L1A is an example, and the first to third operation effect patterns If the specific effect specified in 1a, 1b, 1c is executed, the jackpot display is displayed (the big hit is given), and the degree of expectation is the third operation effect pattern 1c <second operation effect pattern 1b < It is not limited to this as long as it is in the relation of the first operation effect pattern 1a.

  Here, in the super reach effect after the operation button 85 is operated in the button effect specified by the second operation effect pattern 1b and the third operation effect pattern 1c, the sound effect by the first speaker 19 is performed On the other hand, in the super reach effect after the operation button 85 is operated in the button effect specified by the first operation effect pattern 1a, the sound effect by the second speaker 81 is executed. That is, in the super reach effect, the big hit display is displayed when the sound effect of the low sound by the second speaker 81 is performed than when the sound effect of the middle and high sound by the first speaker 19 is performed This game is granted) The degree of expectation is high.

  In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the effect control CPU 65a determines the operation effect pattern for specifying the effect contents of the speakers 19, 81 based on the change pattern determined by the main control CPU 60a as the change pattern determining means by lottery. , It has a function as effect control means for controlling the speakers 19, 81. In addition, the sound effect by the first speaker 19 is executed in the button effect (first period), and the sound effect is executed in the first speaker 19 during the super reach effect after the button effect (second period). The effect control CPU 65a, which determines the operation effect patterns 1b and 1c being carried out by drawing, controls the first speaker 19 so as to output a sound from the first speaker 19 in the first period and the second period. Further, in the above-described winning effect table V1A, the first operation effect pattern 1a in which the sound content is to be executed by the second speaker 81 during the second period (during super reach effect) is set as the first period The effect control CPU 65a is set to be easier to determine than the second and third operation effect patterns 1a and 1c which are not set as effect contents to execute the sound effect by the second speaker 81 (before the start of the super reach effect) The effect control CPU 65a as the effect control means is a ratio of outputting the bass (specific sound) from the second speaker 81 in the second period based on the ratio of outputting the bass (specific sound) from the second speaker 81 in the first period It can be said that the second speaker 81 can be controlled to be high.

  Furthermore, in the embodiment, when the main control CPU 60a as the variation pattern determination unit determines the super reach out-of-out variation pattern P4 or the super reach big hit variation pattern P7 (when the variation pattern specifying the second period is determined) In the effect tables V1A and L1A in which the effect control CPU 65a as the effect control means determines the effect pattern by lottery, the sound effect (output of specific sound) is performed with the second speaker 81 during super reach effect (second period) The first operation effect pattern 1a set as the effect content to be executed and the effect content for executing the sound effect (output of a specific sound) by the second speaker 81 during the super reach effect (second period) is not set The second and third operation effect patterns 1b and 1c are set. That is, when the main control CPU 60a as the variation pattern determining means determines the variation pattern specifying the second period as the effect content, the effect control CPU 65a as the effect control means identifies from the second speaker 81 in the second period It can be said that it is configured to determine whether or not to output a sound (bass) by lottery.

[Operation of Example]
Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 10 according to the embodiment configured as described above will be described.

  When the player rotates the operation lever 16a of the operation handle 16 provided on the front side of the front frame 13, a pachinko ball fired from the ball striking device is launched into the game area 21. At this time, the launch position of the pachinko ball changes in accordance with the amount of rotation of the control lever 16a, and the pachinko ball flows down the first flash flow path 21a or the second flash flow path 21b of the game area 21 in accordance with the launch position. .

  When the pachinko ball hit in the game area 21 of the game board 20 wins in the start winning openings 30, 31 of the start winning device 29, the start winning detection sensors 34, 35 detect the winning of the pachinko ball. When a detection signal is inputted from the start winning detection sensor 34, 35 to the main control CPU 60a, the main control CPU 60a executes a big hit judgment (hit judgment), and if the judgment result of the big hit judgment is affirmative (big hit (big hit) When giving a game), main control CPU60a decides the special figure fluctuation pattern for the big hit. Further, if the determination result of the big hit determination (hit determination) is negative (if the big hit game is not given), the main control CPU 60a determines a special figure fluctuation pattern for removal.

  The main control CPU 60a that has determined the special figure fluctuation pattern outputs a special figure fluctuation pattern specification command (control command) for specifying the determined special figure fluctuation pattern to the effect control CPU 65a. Then, the effect control CPU 65a determines an effect pattern based on the input special pattern fluctuation pattern designating command, and an effect pattern designating command for identifying the effect pattern is displayed on the display control board 70, the lamp control board 72, and the sound control board 73. Output to Under the control of the display control board 70, the lamp control board 72, and the sound control board 73 to which the effect pattern designation command is input, the symbol display effect is started by the symbol display device 17, and the lamp device 18, the first speaker Also in the second speaker 81, an effect associated with the symbol variation effect is executed. In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the second speaker 81 is controlled by the sound control board 73 (effect control CPU 65a) so as to perform the sound effect only when the specific condition is satisfied. Further, the main control CPU 60a instructs the fluctuation stop of the decoration drawing based on the fluctuation time defined in the designated special drawing fluctuation pattern, and outputs the all symbol stop command for displaying the symbol combination in the fixed stop display. As a result, the decoration drawing is hit on the display unit 17a of the symbol display device 17 or displayed on the display unit 17a in the fixed display or off display. When a predetermined symbol combination is displayed on the display unit 17a of the symbol display device 17 as a result of the symbol variation effect in which the decoration figure is displayed and stopped, a big hit occurs after the end of the symbol variation effect. When a big hit occurs, the special opening / closing member 43 for opening / closing the special winning opening 41 of the special winning portion 40 provided on the gaming board 20 is controlled to open under predetermined conditions according to the symbol combination displayed on the display unit 17a. A big hit game is executed, and on the basis of the control of the sub control means 65, 70, a big hit effect is performed on the display unit 17a of the symbol display device 17.

(About button production)
Next, the operation until the determination of the button effect based on the special figure fluctuation pattern designation command input from the main control CPU 60a to the effect control CPU 65a will be described. As described above, in the embodiment, the case where the button effect is performed in the after-reach execution period K2 will be described.

  When the special control pattern specifying command for specifying the super reach outlier fluctuation pattern P4 is input to the effect control CPU 65a, the effect control CPU 65a acquires a random number for effect pattern lottery, and the acquired random number for effect pattern lottery The type of effect pattern is determined by comparing the value of F with the effect pattern lottery determination value set in the effect table L1A for losing. In this release effect table L1A, as described above, the first to third operation effect patterns 1a, 1b and 1c, and the first non-operation effect pattern 1k and the second non-operation effect pattern 2k are as shown in FIG. Each of the first operation effect pattern 1a, the second operation effect pattern 1b, the third operation effect pattern 1c, the first non-operation effect pattern 1k and the second non-operation effect pattern 2k is set to be determinable at the ratio shown. It is determined by the corresponding ratio. Then, when the effect control CPU 65a determines any of the first to third operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c, the button effect specified by the operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c is executed after the reach The symbol display device 17, the lamp device 18, and the first speaker 19 are controlled via the display control board 70, the lamp control board 72, and the sound control board 73 so as to be performed in the period K2. In addition, when one of the non-operation effect patterns 1k and 2k is determined, the effect control CPU 65a causes the non-operation effect specified by the non-operation effect patterns 1k and 2k to be executed in the post-reach execution period K2. The symbol display device 17, the lamp device 18 and the first speaker 19 are controlled via the display control board 70, the lamp control board 72 and the sound control board 73.

  When a special figure fluctuation pattern designation command for specifying the super reach big hit fluctuation pattern P7 is input to the effect control CPU 65a, the effect control CPU 65a acquires a random number for effect pattern lottery, and the acquired random number for effect pattern lottery Is compared with the effect pattern lottery determination value set in the winning effect table V1A to determine the type of effect pattern. In the winning effect table V1A, as described above, the first to third operation effect patterns 1a, 1b and 1c, and the first non-operation effect pattern 1k and the second non-operation effect pattern 2k are shown in FIG. Each of the first operation effect pattern 1a, the second operation effect pattern 1b, the third operation effect pattern 1c, the first non-operation effect pattern 1k and the second non-operation effect pattern 2k is set to be determinable at the ratio shown. It is determined by the corresponding ratio. Then, when the effect control CPU 65a determines any of the first to third operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c, the button effect specified by the operation effect patterns 1a, 1b, 1c is executed after the reach The symbol display device 17, the lamp device 18, and the first speaker 19 are controlled via the display control board 70, the lamp control board 72, and the sound control board 73 so as to be performed in the period K2. In addition, when one of the non-operation effect patterns 1k and 2k is determined, the effect control CPU 65a causes the non-operation effect specified by the non-operation effect patterns 1k and 2k to be executed in the post-reach execution period K2. The symbol display device 17, the lamp device 18 and the first speaker 19 are controlled via the display control board 70, the lamp control board 72 and the sound control board 73.

  If the detection signal from the operation detection sensor of the operation button 85 is input during the effective period E of the button effect executed in the after-reach execution period K2, the effect control CPU 65a starts the super reach effect The symbol display device 17 and the lamp device 18 are controlled. In this case, when the detection signal from the operation detection sensor is input to the effect control CPU 65 a in the button effect based on either the second or third operation effect pattern 1 b or 1 c, the effect control CPU 65 a is a sound control board 73. Control the first speaker 19 to execute corresponding sound effects in the super reach effect. On the other hand, when the detection signal from the operation detection sensor is input to the effect control CPU 65a in the button effect based on the first operation effect pattern 1a, the effect control CPU 65a receives the second speaker 81 via the sound control board 73. The control and corresponding sound effects are executed in the super reach effect.

  In the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the first operation effect pattern 1a is easily determined from the other operation system effect patterns 1b and 1c in the case of a big hit judgment, and the first operation effect pattern 1a in the case of a deviation in the big hit judgment. Since the operation effect pattern 1a is set to be difficult to determine from the other operation system effect patterns 1b and 1c, the expectation for giving a big hit when the effect based on the first operation effect pattern 1a is performed is high. When the detection signal from the operation detection sensor is input to the effect control CPU 65a in the button effect based on the first operation effect pattern 1a, the sound effect is executed by the second speaker 81, so the player can By the sound effect by the low sound by the second speaker 81, it can be recognized that the degree of expectation given a big hit is high, and the interest can be improved. That is, in the case of a big hit advantageous to the player, since the low sound is easily outputted from the second speaker 81, the degree of expectation that the big hit game is given when the low sound is outputted can be enhanced to improve the interest. Further, in the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, when a specific condition is satisfied that the operation button 85 is operated in a state in which the first operation effect pattern 1a is determined, the sound effect with the bass by the second speaker 81 is satisfied. Since it is executed only in the above, it is possible to enhance the interest of the game in combination with the rarity of the sound effect with the bass by the second speaker 81.

  Here, in the pachinko machine 10 of the embodiment, the super reach deviation fluctuation pattern P4 and the super reach specifying the super reach effect (second period) in which the sound effect by the second speaker 81 may be performed as the effect content Normal reach not specifying the type of the big hit fluctuation pattern P7, as a super reach effect (the second period) in which the sound effect by the second speaker 81 may be performed off normal reach out of phase effect fluctuation patterns P2, P3 and normal reach big hit Since the number is set smaller than the types of effect variation patterns P5 and P6 (see FIG. 9), the appearance rate of effects in which bass is output from the second speaker 81 in the symbol variation effect (variation game) is low, and the effects by the bass Interest can be improved by the rarity of In addition, even when the main control CPU 60a determines the super reach deviation fluctuation pattern P4 and the super reach big hit fluctuation pattern P7 specifying the super reach effect (second period) as the effect content, the effect control CPU 65a is the second speaker. Since there is a case where the first operation effect pattern 1a for executing the sound effect by 81 is determined, and a case where the first operation effect pattern 1a for executing the sound effect by the second speaker 81 is not determined, The appearance rate of the sound effect is lower, and the rarity of the effect by the bass can be further enhanced to improve the interest.

  When super reach big hit fluctuation pattern P7 is decided as fluctuation pattern which specifies the production contents of design fluctuation production with the opportunity of the pachinko ball winning to the starting winning a prize mouth 30, 31 (the establishment of the specified condition) as a trigger, The sound effect by the second speaker 81 is executed when the first operation effect pattern 1a is determined as the pattern, whereas the second speaker is performed when the first operation effect pattern 1a is determined as the operation effect pattern. Since the sound effect by 81 is not executed, the effect by the bass (specific sound) is not uniform even if the same fluctuation pattern is determined, and the interest can be improved.

[Another embodiment]
In the other embodiment, only the configuration different from the above embodiment will be described. In another embodiment, when the main control CPU 60a determines the super reach out-of-out fluctuation pattern P4 or the super reach big hit fluctuation pattern P7, the button effect specified in the operation effect pattern can be determined as the operation effect pattern that can be determined by the effect control CPU 65a. When the operation button 85 is operated, the transition to the super reach effect (second period) and the sound effect by the second speaker 81 are executed in the super reach effect (second period), When the operation button 85 is not operated, the specific operation effect pattern set in the effect contents in which the sound effect by the second speaker 81 is not executed without shifting to the super reach effect (second period) is set. That is, according to the configuration in which the specific operation effect pattern is set, the sound effect by the second speaker 81 can be selected by the presence or absence of the operation button 85 of the player in the button effect. It is possible to make a presentation and improve the interest.

  In another embodiment, it is not necessary that the button effect and the subsequent effect are all specified by the specific operation effect pattern, but the sub effect pattern that can be determined by the effect control CPU 65a according to the presence or absence of the operation button 85 in the button effect. As the first sub effect pattern specifying the super reach effect and the sound effect by the second speaker 81, and the second sub effect specifying the other effect contents without executing the super reach effect and the sound effect by the second speaker 81 Set the pattern. Then, the effect control CPU 65a determines the first sub effect pattern when the operation button 85 is operated in the button effect, and the second sub effect pattern when the operation button 85 is not operated in the button effect. The configuration to be determined can be adopted.

[Modification example]
The present application is not limited to the configurations of the above-described embodiments and the like, and other configurations can be adopted as appropriate. In addition, the following modifications can be combined with each other as long as possible.
(1) In the embodiment, a period from the start of fluctuation to the start of super reach production is a first period in the fluctuation time specified by the super reach loss fluctuation pattern or the super reach jackpot fluctuation pattern, and the super reach production is Although the period to be executed is configured as the second period, the sound effect by the second speaker can be performed in the second period, but the second period in which the sound effect by the second speaker is possible is not limited to this. For example, the period in which the pre-reach effect is performed can be set as the first period, and the period in which the normal reach effect can be performed can be set as the second period.
(2) In the embodiment, the operation condition of the operation button in the button effect is mentioned as the specific condition for executing the sound effect using the second speaker, but the specific condition is that the hit game substantially raises the ball It may be the condition that the big jackpot game is set to the opening and closing pattern of the big winning opening that can not be obtained, the condition that the advantageous state (RUSH state) using the small hit game is given, etc. The sound effect using the second speaker may be performed in the effect of notifying that the player is in an advantageous state. That is, a period in which an effect to notify the player to be in an advantageous state can be executed is referred to as a second period, and the other periods are referred to as a first period, and sound effects by the first speaker are in the first period and the second period. While setting it as possible, sound production by the 2nd speaker is set possible only in the 2nd period.
(3) The sound effect using the first speaker and the sound effect using the second speaker are the same, even if the types of symbol variation effects performed by the symbol display device are different. It is also good. For example, in the situation where the same kind of pattern variation effect is being executed, the sound effect with medium and high sound using the first speaker and the sound effect with bass using the second speaker are the judgment results of the hit judgment. It is possible to adopt a configuration to select and execute accordingly. That is, when the determination result of the hit determination is a hit, it is easier to determine the sound effect with bass using the second speaker than the sound effect with medium and high tones using the first speaker, and the determination result of the hit determination is off In this case, it is difficult to determine the sound effect in the low frequency using the second speaker than the sound effect in the middle and high frequency using the first speaker, so that even if the same type of symbol variation effect is being performed, the sound It can be made to recognize that the degree of expectation given to the player to be different is different depending on the type of sound in the effect (the height of the sound).

(4) In the embodiment, the sound effect with the bass using the second speaker is performed in the effect accompanying the button effect (the super reach effect in the embodiment), but as the advance effect, the model of the pachinko machine In particular, a special notice effect for displaying a characteristic item or character and a non-specific notice effect for not displaying the characteristic item or character are set, and a characteristic item or character in the special notice effect is displayed. At the same time, it may be configured to execute a sound effect with bass using the second speaker. Then, in this configuration, when the non-specific advance notice effect is executed (the effect control means (effect control means) when the specific advance effect is executed (when it is determined by the effect control means (effect control CPU)) By setting it higher than the hit expectation of (when it is determined by the control CPU), it is possible to improve the interest due to the sound effect with the bass using the second speaker.
(5) The sound effect with the low sound using the second speaker may be any one as long as it is used when the expectation of being awarded a hit game is high, for example, in the button effect, to urge the operation of the operation button The operation button is configured to vibrate, and when the effect pattern (variation pattern) having a high degree of expectation that the hit game is given is determined, while the operation button vibrates, the low frequency sound is output from the second speaker When the effect pattern (variation pattern) having a low degree of expectation for winning a hit is determined, medium to high sound may be output from the first speaker at the timing when the operation button vibrates.
(6) In the embodiment, the ratio at which the sound effect is performed by the second speaker (the specific sound is output) is set to zero in the first period, but the sound effect is performed by the second speaker in the first period. If the rate at which the sound effect is performed by the second speaker in the second period (the specific sound is output) is higher than the rate at which the specific sound is output (in the second period), the second speaker is used in the first period. Sound effects may be performed.

(7) A non-decision effect which indeterminately indicates that the judgment result of the judgment is a hit, and a definite effect which definitely indicates that the judgment result of the judgment is a hit In the determined effect, a sound effect in middle and high tones using the first speaker is performed, while in the determined effect, a sound effect in the bass using the second speaker is performed.
(8) In the embodiment, the second speaker outputs the low-pitched sound from the first speaker, but the output amount of the second speaker is set larger than the output amount of the first speaker for the predetermined specific sound. It may be As the specific sound, for example, the sound of a specific scale, the sound of a specific range, a specific sound effect, or the like may be used. As a specific sound effect, for example, in a notice effect such as a pseudo ream, a sound effect characteristic of the pachinko machine may be set, and an output amount of the second speaker may be set larger than that of the first speaker. Moreover, not only the thing (The 2nd speaker is a big thing) which differs in the output amount of the specific sound in the case of using a 1st speaker and a 2nd speaker independently, both the 1st speaker and a 2nd speaker are used together In the state where the second speaker is larger than the first speaker, the output amount of the specific sound may be larger. In addition, the magnitude of the specific sound of the first and second speakers may be set according to the variation pattern or the effect pattern.
(9) In the embodiment, whether or not the sound effect with the second speaker is uniquely determined by the operation effect pattern, but after the operation effect pattern is determined, the sound effect with the second speaker is It is possible to adopt a configuration in which the availability is determined by lottery. Then, if the possibility of sound effect with the second speaker is determined by lottery after the operation effect pattern is determined, the probability of executing the sound effect with the second speaker may be changed according to the type of the operation effect pattern .
(10) As the effect mode, set the medium / high sound effect mode (first period) to perform the sound effect using the first speaker and the bass effect mode (second period) to perform the sound effect using the second speaker In default (initial state), in the configuration to be set to the middle and high sound effect mode, an effect pattern for executing a button effect is determined, and a button effect to be executed during a symbol change effect (during a change game) or a big hit game A configuration can be adopted in which the mode is shifted to the bass effect mode under the condition that the operation button is operated.

(11) In the embodiment, the button effect is executed in the post-reach execution period, and the super reach effect is started (transitioned to the second period) triggered by the operation of the operation button in the button effect. However, the button effect may be performed during the super reach effect (during the second period).
(12) In the embodiment, the button effect (operation effect) is described for the button effect (operation effect) executed during the symbol variation effect, but the button effect (operation effect) is a big hit game (hit game) It may be a button effect (operation effect) to be executed in the jackpot effect (hit effect) to be executed during. Then, when the button is operated in the button effect in the big hit effect, the sound effect by the second speaker is executed, suggesting the expected degree of possibility that the positive change state or the variable short state is given after the end of the big hit game You may do it.
(13) In the button effect (operation effect), whether or not the random number value (winning information) acquired with the pachinko ball winning at the starting winning opening as a trigger matches the preset big hit judgment value (hit judging value) It is executed in accordance with the judgment result of the prior judgment in the symbol variation effect executed based on the start reservation information stored when the pachinko ball wins by judging beforehand whether or not the pachinko ball has won May be
(14) In the embodiment, the second speaker is disposed in the middle frame, but the location of the second speaker may be a front frame, an outer frame, or a design board.
(15) The operation means is not limited to the operation button of the pressing form, and mechanical or electrical operation action by the player such as a joystick controller or a touch panel capable of a touch operation or a pressing operation. As long as they can be detected magnetically, various types of operation means can be adopted. Further, the disposing position of the operation means may be provided at a position other than the upper ball receptacle, for example, the upper side of the window in the front frame or the left or right side, which can be operated by the player.

(16) In the embodiment, only the effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the first speaker is set as the non-operation effect pattern, but the non-operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the second speaker may be set. And, similarly to the relationship between the operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the first speaker and the operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the second speaker, the big hit of the non-operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the second speaker By setting the expectation of being given a higher than the expectation of being given a big hit of a non-operation effect pattern for executing a sound effect by the first speaker, an operation effect and a non-operation effect can be obtained as a notice effect. Even when any advance notice effect is performed, the interest due to the sound effect being performed by the second speaker can be enhanced.
(17) In the configuration in which the non-operation effect pattern for performing the sound effect by the second speaker specified in (16) is set, the advance effect is determined by lottery in the pre-reach execution period set as the advance execution period. The non-operation effect pattern is determined from among the non-operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect with the first speaker and the non-operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect with the second speaker as options of Then, as an option for determining the advance presentation effect by lottery, the operation presentation pattern is determined from among the operation presentation pattern for executing the sound presentation with the first speaker and the operation presentation pattern for performing the sound presentation with the second speaker Configure. Then, the expectation for the reach state of the non-operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the second speaker is set to be higher than the expectation for the reach state of the non-operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the first speaker And an expectation degree of the possibility of developing into a super reach effect of the operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the second speaker, and a possibility of developing the super reach effect of the operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the first speaker The second speaker can enhance the expectation of the possibility of shifting to the state desired by the player (the state where the big hit display is displayed) by setting it to be higher than the expectation of It can improve.
Further, in the configuration in which a non-operation effect pattern is selected from a plurality of types in the pre-reach execution period, a period from the start of variation of the symbol variation effect (variation game) to the reach state is defined as a first period. The ratio of the non-operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the second speaker is determined by the lottery of the non-operation effect pattern in the first period, with the period from the end to the fluctuation end as the second period. By setting the ratio at which the operation effect pattern for executing the sound effect by the second speaker is determined by the lottery of the pattern to be lower than the ratio, the second effect can be obtained even though the sound effect by the second speaker is performed in the first period. In the period, the sound effect by the second speaker was not executed and it did not shift to the super reach effect, or the big hit display was not displayed It can be suppressed to. That is, although the sound effect by the second speaker is executed at an early stage after the symbol variation effect is started, the jackpot is not given even though the player enhances the expectation that the jackpot is given. It is possible to suppress disapproval and a decline in gaming will.
