  For example, when the jackpot is won, the production symbols are stopped and displayed with a target such as "777". In the case of an out of place, the effect pattern is stopped and displayed with a loose eye such as "637". This makes it easy for the player to grasp the progress of the game. The player can grasp the jackpot lottery result by the image display 7 in addition to the first special symbol display 41a and the second special symbol display 41b. The position of the symbol display area may not be fixed. Moreover, as an aspect of the variation display of the effect pattern, it may be an aspect of scrolling in the vertical direction, or may be an aspect other than that. It is not limited to the above and can be arbitrarily set as to which combination of effect symbols is to be stopped and displayed according to each lottery result. Hereinafter, the effect of displaying the effect symbols 8L, 8C, 8R is also referred to as "change effect of effect symbol", "change effect of decorative symbol", or simply "change effect". In addition, this variation design of the decorative symbol counts the production in a period (also referred to as a special symbol variation period) from the start of the variation of the special symbol until the stop thereof as one variation production (one cycle of variation production). Therefore, even if there is a case where the decorative symbol is temporarily stopped in a period from when the special symbol starts to change until it stops, the effect of the temporary stop is included in the change effect of the decorative symbol.

  The image display device 7 can display on the display screen 7 a a jackpot effect performed in parallel to the jackpot game (an example of a special game), a demonstration effect for waiting for a customer, and the like, in addition to the effect symbol variation effect.

The winning of the game ball to the first starting opening 20 is the trigger of the lottery of the first special symbol (big hit lottery). In other words, the winning of the game ball to the first starting opening 20 is a trigger for obtaining a jackpot random number and the like, a jackpot determination, and the like.

  The normally variable winning device (electric chew) 22 is disposed below the first starting opening 20 in the game area 3 and includes a second starting opening (second starting winning opening, second entrance, variable starting opening) 21. ing. The winning of the game ball to the second starting opening 21 is a trigger for the second special symbol lottery (big hit lottery). The electric chow 22 includes the movable member 23 in front of the second start port 21, and opens and closes the second start port 21 by the operation of the movable member 23. The movable member 23 is driven by a power chew solenoid 24 (FIG. 3). The game ball can enter the second starting opening 21 when the movable member 23 is in the open state. The electric chew 22 is only required to easily enter the second start opening 21 when the movable member 23 is in the open state than when the movable member 23 is in the closed state. Entry into the ball may be possible.

  The gate (through chucker) 28 is disposed above the first big prize device (first attacker) 31 in the game area 3 and is configured to allow passage of the game ball. The passage of the game ball to the gate 28 is a trigger of the normal symbol lottery which determines whether or not the electric chew 22 is opened. In other words, the passage of the game ball to the gate 28 is a trigger for the acquisition of the normal symbol random number (the random number per hit) and the hit determination or the like.

  Here, with "lottery of special symbol", when the game ball is won in the first starting opening 20 or the second starting opening 21, a random number for special symbol determination is acquired, and this acquired random number is determined in advance. It is the processing which judges whether it is a big hit by comparing with the value corresponding to "big hit". The lottery result of the "big hit" is not immediately notified to the player, but the variation display of the special symbol is performed in the first special symbol display 41a or the second special symbol display 41b described later, and the predetermined fluctuation is made. When the time has passed, the special symbol corresponding to the lottery result is stopped and displayed (confirmed display), and the player is notified of the lottery result. In the image display device 7, a symbol matching game in which the effect symbols are variably displayed in synchronization with the variation display of the special symbol is performed, and the lottery result of the big hit is notified to the player more effectively by this symbol matching game.

  In addition, when the game ball passes the gate 28, “random symbol lottery” acquires a random number for ordinary symbol determination, and compares the acquired random number with a value corresponding to a predetermined “hit”. It is a process of determining whether or not a hit is made. Also about the lottery result of this normal symbol, the game ball does not just pass the gate 28 and the lottery result is not notified immediately, but the variation display of the normal symbol is performed in the ordinary symbol display 42 described later, and the predetermined fluctuation When the time has elapsed, the normal symbol corresponding to the lottery result is confirmed (turned on or off), and the player is notified of the lottery result.

  The first big prize device (the first attacker, the first special variable prize device) 31 is disposed on the upper right of the first starting opening 20 in the game area 3, and the first big prize port (the first special prize port) 30 , V region 39, non-V region 70, and V opening and closing member 71.

In FIG. 8A, in the “normal probability state”, when the jackpot random number value is “0 to 164”, it is determined to be “jackpot”, and the jackpot random number value is “numerical value other than 0 to 164 (165 to 65535 In the case of “)”, it is indicated that it is determined as “lost”. Also, in the "high probability state", if the jackpot random number value is "0 to 649", it is determined to be "jackpot", and the jackpot random number value is "numerical value other than 0 to 649 (650 to 65535)" Is shown to be determined as "loss". The contents of the “normal probability state” and the “high probability state” will be described later.

  In the reach determination table T2, in the main control main process (described later) of the gaming control microcomputer 81, whether the reach random number value (one of 0 to 127) acquired corresponds to "reach" or "reach not". Is a table referenced to determine whether In FIG. 8B, when the reach random number is "0 to 13" in the "non-time-saving state", it is determined that "reach is present", and the reach random value is "numerical value other than 0 to 13 (14 to In the case of “127)”, it is indicated that “no reach” is determined. Further, in the “time saving state”, when the reach random number value is “0 to 5”, it is determined that “reach exists”, and the reach random number value is “numerical value other than 0 to 5 (6 to 127)”. Is shown to be determined as "no reach". The contents of the "time saving state" and the "non-time saving state" will be described later. In the reach determination table T2, in the time saving state, the reach at the time of losing is less likely to be applied than in the non-time saving state. This is to speed up the speed of digesting the Tokusou reserve by selecting more reachless losses with short fluctuation time in the short time state.

  The normal symbol winning determination table T3 corresponds to whether the normal symbol random number value (one of 0 to 255) acquired by the gaming control microcomputer 81 in the main control main processing (described later) corresponds to "hit" or "lost". It is a table referenced to determine whether to In FIG. 8C, in the "non-time-saving state", when the normal symbol random number value is "0 to 2", it is determined as "hit", and the normal symbol random number value is "numerical value other than 0 to 2 (3 In the case of "255", it is shown that it is judged as "lost". Also, in the "time saving state", if the normal symbol random number value is "0 to 254", it is determined as "hit", and if the normal symbol random number value is "numerical value other than 0 to 254 (255)" It is shown that it is judged as "missing".

  The normal symbol variation pattern determination table T4 determines how many seconds the variation period of the normal symbol is in accordance with the gaming state (non-time-short status or time-short status) in the main control main processing (described later). Is a table that is referenced to In (D) of FIG. 8, the variation time of the normal symbol is determined to be “30 seconds” in the “non-short time state”, and the variation time of the normal symbol is determined to be “1 second” in the “time reduction state”. It is shown.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining the jackpot type determination table T5. In the jackpot type determination table T5, according to the jackpot type random number value (one of 0 to 127) acquired by the gaming control microcomputer 81 in the main control main process (described later), "class of jackpot" and "special symbol of It is a table referenced to determine the type. In FIG. 9, when winning in the first special symbol (special figure 1) lottery, if the jackpot type random number value is "0 to 24", it is determined that the jackpot type is "16 RV passage planned jackpot", special figure The stop symbol of 1 (special stop symbol) is determined to be "big hit symbol 1". When the jackpot type random number value is "25 to 49", it is determined that the jackpot type is "16 RV passage planned jackpot", and the special figure stop symbol is determined to be "big hit symbol 2". When the jackpot type random number value is "50 to 55", it is determined that the jackpot type is "16R (substantially 15R) V scheduled to pass through jackpot", and the special figure stop symbol is determined to be "big hit symbol 3". When the jackpot type random number value is "56 to 67", the jackpot type is determined to be "16R (essentially 13R) V scheduled to pass through jackpot", and the special figure stop symbol is determined to be "jackpot symbol 4". When the jackpot type random number value is "68 to 127", the jackpot type is determined to be "16R (essentially 13R) V non-scheduled scheduled jackpot", and the special figure stop symbol is determined to be "big hit symbol 5". On the other hand, when winning in the second special symbol (special figure 2) lottery, regardless of the jackpot classification random value (any one of 0 to 127), jackpot classification is determined to be "16 RV passage scheduled jackpot", It is shown that the stop symbol (special symbol stop symbol) of the special figure 2 is determined to be "big hit symbol 1". In addition, by referring to the jackpot type determination table T5, the "special figure stop symbol data" corresponding to the special view stop symbol, the "opening (OP) command" of the special game, the "round designated command", the "ending (ED) Commands can also be identified. For specific contents of "16 RV passing jackpot", "16R (15R substantial) V passing jackpot", "16R (real 13R) V scheduled jacking" and "16R (real 13R) V non-passing jackpot" I will mention later.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining the fluctuation pattern determination table T6 in the non-short time state. FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining the fluctuation pattern determination table T6 in the time saving state. The variation pattern determination table T6 is a table referred to by the gaming control microcomputer 81 for determining a variation pattern according to the acquired variation pattern random number value (0 to 127) in the main control main process (described later). . In FIG. 10, for example, the first starting opening 20 is won in the non-short time state, and it is determined as "lost" in the big hit determination table T1, and determined as "reach" in the reach determination table T2, and the number of holding balls is "1. When the variation pattern random number value is “0 to 60”, it is shown that the variation pattern is determined to be “P7”. In FIG. 11, for example, the second start hole 21 wins in a time saving state, is determined as "big hit" in the big hit determination table T1, is determined as "16 RV passing planned big hit" in the big hit type determination table T5, fluctuation pattern random value It is shown that the fluctuation pattern is determined to be "P61" when "is 0 to 10". As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, once the variation pattern is determined, the variation time is also determined. Also, when reaching, it is also determined whether the reach will be a normal reach or a super reach (SP reach). Super reach is a reach effect where the fluctuation time after reach is longer than normal reach. Here, three types of super reach (SP1, SP2, SP3) having different fluctuation times are set. The length of the fluctuation time is SP3> SP2> SP1. In SP1 to 3, it is evolved through normal reach. The difference between SP1 and SP3 may be, for example, the presence or absence of a pseudo run.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram for explaining the electric chew release pattern determination table T7. The electric chew open pattern determination table T7 is used by the gaming control microcomputer 81 to determine the open pattern of the electric chew 22 in accordance with the gaming state (non-short time state or short time state) in the main control main process (described later). It is a table to be referenced. In FIG. 12A, the open pattern of the electric chow 22 is determined to be "open pattern 11" in the "non-short time state", and the open pattern is determined to be "open pattern 12" in the "time short state". It is shown. The contents of the release pattern 11 and the release pattern 12 are shown in FIG. In the opening pattern 11, the opening operation is performed once and the opening time 0.2 second is released. In the opening pattern 12, the number of times of opening is three, the opening time per one time is 2.0 seconds, and the interval (opening interval) of 1.0 second is performed. However, the opening of the electric chew 22 is closed even if the opening time remains if there is a predetermined number of game ball winnings (prescribed number of winnings, maximum 10).

  FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining the special winning opening open pattern determination table T8. In the special winning opening open pattern determination table T8, the first large winning opening 30 and the second large winning opening according to the special view stop symbol data (FIG. 9) in the main control main processing (described later) of the gaming control microcomputer 81. It is a table referenced to determine the 35 open patterns. In FIG. 13A, when the special figure stop symbol data is "11H", "12H", or "21H", the opening pattern of the first large winning opening 30 and the second large winning opening 35 is "open pattern 21. When the special pattern stop symbol data is "14H" or "15H", the open pattern is determined as "open pattern 22". When the special pattern stop symbol data is "13H", the open pattern is "open". It is shown that the pattern 23 "is determined. FIG. 13B shows the contents of the release pattern 21, the release pattern 22 and the release pattern 23. The opening pattern 21 opens the first large winning opening 30 once for opening times 1 to 29.5 seconds (long opening) at opening times 1 to 13 and 15th, and opening times 1 to 14 times for opening 16th. The second big winning opening 35 is opened (long open) with an open time of 29.5 seconds. The opening pattern 22 opens the first big winning opening 30 (long opening) with the opening number of once and opening time of 29.5 seconds in the 1st to 13th eyes, and in the 14th and 16th eyes, the number of opening once, the opening time The second big winning opening 35 of 0.1 second is opened (short opening), and the opening number of the first big winning opening 30 of 0.1 second is opened (short opening) once at the 15th opening. . The opening pattern 23 opens the first large winning opening 30 (long opening) once for the opening times 1 to 29.5 seconds in the 1st to 13th and 15th eyes, and opens once for the opening number 14th. The second big winning opening 35 of 0.1 second is opened (short open), and the opening number of the second big winning opening 35 of 29.5 seconds is opened (long open) once at the opening frequency of 16R. . However, opening of the first large winning opening 30 and the second large winning opening 35, even if there is a predetermined number of game ball winning (predetermined number of winning, maximum 9), even if the opening time remains It is closed.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining the V open / close member open pattern determination table T9. The V open / close member open pattern determination table T9 is for the game control microcomputer 81 to determine the open pattern of the V open / close member 71 according to the special view stop symbol data (FIG. 9) in the main control main process (described later). It is a table to be referenced. In FIG. 14A, when the special figure stop symbol data is "11H", "12H" or "21H", the open pattern of the V open / close member 71 is determined to be "open pattern 31" and the special figure stop symbol When the data is "13H", the open pattern is determined to be "open pattern 32", and when the special view stop symbol data is "14H", the open pattern is determined to be "open pattern 33" and the special view stop symbol data is When "15H", it is shown that the release pattern is determined to be "release pattern 34". The contents of the open pattern 31, the open pattern 32, the open pattern 33, and the open pattern 34 are shown in FIG. 14 (B). In the opening pattern 31, the second opening of the V opening and closing member 71 is performed for an opening time of 0.1 second when the first winning opening 30 has a first winning at the second, fourth, sixth, and eighth Rs. In 10th and 12th R, when there is the first winning of the first big winning opening 30, the V open / close member 71 is opened for a short of 0.1 second, and when there is the second winning the opening time The V open / close member 71 is opened long for up to 31.5 seconds. In the opening pattern 32, at the second, fourth, sixth, and 12th eyes, when the first large winning opening 30 has a first winning, the V open / close member 71 is opened for a short time of 0.1 second. In the 8th and 10th eyes, when the first winning combination 30 has the first winning, the V open / close member 71 is opened for a short of 0.1 second, and when the second winning is found the opening time The V open / close member 71 is opened long for up to 31.5 seconds. In the opening pattern 33, when there is the first winning on the first big winning opening 30 at the second and sixth R eyes, the V open / close member 71 is opened for a short of 0.1 seconds for the opening time, and there is the second winning. When this is done, the V open / close member 71 is opened for a maximum of 31.5 seconds. At the fourth, eighth, tenth, and twelfth Rs, when the first large winning opening 30 has a first winning, the V open / close member 71 is short-opened for an open time of 0.1 second. In the opening pattern 34, at the second, fourth, sixth, eighth, tenth, and twelfth R, when the first large winning opening 30 has the first winning, the V open / close member 71 is opened for a short of 0.1 second. .

4. Description of jackpot, etc. In the gaming machine 1, there are "jackpot" and "loss" as a result of a jackpot lottery (special symbol lottery). In the case of "big hit", the "big hit symbol" is stopped and displayed on the special symbol display 41. In the case of "missing", the "missing symbol" is stopped and displayed on the special symbol display device 41. When the jackpot is won, the jackpot game is made to open the big winning opening (the first big winning opening 30 and the second big winning opening 35) with the opening pattern according to the type of the special symbol (the type of big hitting) stopped and displayed. Is executed. The jackpot game is an example of a special game. The jackpot game includes multiple round games (unit opening game), an opening (OP) before the first round game is started, and an ending (ED) after the final round game is over There is. Each round game starts with the end of the opening or the end of the previous round game and ends with the start of the next round game. The closing time (interval time) of the winning opening during the round game is included in the opening round game before the closing.

  There are several types of jackpots. The type of jackpot is as shown in FIG. Here, there are two major types of jackpots, "V passing scheduled jackpot" and "V non-passing scheduled jackpot". "V passing scheduled jackpot" operates the opening and closing member 32, the opening and closing member 37, and the V opening and closing member 71 in an opening pattern (V passage expected opening pattern) which allows passage of gaming balls to the V area 39 during the jackpot game. It is a jackpot. Here, the jackpot of special figure stop symbol data 11H-14H and 21H corresponds to "V passing scheduled jackpot". The combination of the opening pattern of the opening and closing member 32 and the opening and closing member 37 shown in FIG. 13 and the opening pattern of the V opening and closing member 71 shown in FIG. 14 is (open pattern 21: open pattern 31), (open pattern 22: open pattern 33). Or (open pattern 23: open pattern 32), it is possible to pass the gaming ball to the V area 39 during the jackpot game. The "V non-passing planned jackpot" is an opening pattern (V non-passing planned opening pattern) in which passage of the gaming ball to the V area 39 is impossible during the jackpot game, the opening / closing member 32, the opening / closing member 37 and the V opening / closing member 71 Is a jackpot to operate. Here, the jackpot of the special figure stop symbol data 17H corresponds to "V non-passing planned jackpot". When the combination of the open pattern of the open / close member 32 and the open / close member 37 shown in FIG. 13 and the open pattern of the V open / close member 71 shown in FIG. 14 is (open pattern 22: open pattern 34) Passage of the game ball to 39 becomes impossible. As described above, the opening pattern 22 of the opening / closing member 32 and the opening / closing member 37 doubles as the V-passing planned opening pattern and the V-non-passing planned opening pattern.

  "V passing scheduled jackpot" includes "16 RV passing scheduled jackpot", "16R (substantially 13R) V passing scheduled jackpot", and "16R (substantially 15R) V scheduled passing jackpot". The "16 RV scheduled jackpot" has a substantial total number of rounds of 16R. 1R to 13R and 15R open the first large winning opening 30 for up to 29.5 seconds per 1R. 14R and 16R open the second large winning opening 35 for up to 29.5 seconds per 1R (FIG. 13: opening pattern 21). In 10R and 12R, the V opening / closing member 71 is long-opened (FIG. 14: opening pattern 31), and passage to the V area 39 in the first large winning opening 30 is easily possible.

  Although "16R (essentially 13R) V scheduled passing jackpot" has a total number of rounds of 16R, a substantial total number of rounds is 13R. That is, 1R to 13R opens the first large winning opening 30 for a maximum of 29.5 seconds per 1R, but 15R only opens the first large winning opening 30 for 0.1 second per 1R, and 14R and Even in the 16R, the second large winning opening 35 is opened for only 0.1 second per 1R (FIG. 13: opening pattern 22). Therefore, in this "16R (actually 13R) V scheduled scheduled jackpot", the opening time of the big winning opening is extremely short from 14R to 16R, and it is a round in which the winning ball can not be expected. That is, "16R (essentially 13R) V passing planned jackpot" is a jackpot of substantially 13R. In 2R and 6R, the V opening / closing member 71 is long-opened (FIG. 14: opening pattern 33), and passage to the V area 39 in the first large winning opening 30 is easily possible.

  Although "16R (15R real) V scheduled jackpot" has a total number of rounds of 16R, a substantial total number of rounds is 15R. That is, 1R to 13R and 15R open the first large winning opening 30 for a maximum of 29.5 seconds per 1R, 16R open the second large winning opening 35 for a maximum of 29.5 seconds per 1R, but 14R The second large winning opening 35 is opened only for 0.1 second per 1 R (FIG. 13: opening pattern 23). Therefore, in this "16R (actually 15R) V passing scheduled jackpot", the opening time of the big winning opening is extremely short, and it becomes an unforeseeable round of winning balls. That is, "16R (15R in real) V scheduled jackpot" is a jackpot in 15R. In 8R and 10R, the V open / close member 71 is long-opened (FIG. 14: open pattern 32), and passage to the V area 39 in the first large winning opening 30 is easily possible.

  The "V non-passing jackpot" is the "16R (substantially 13R) V non-passing jackpot" of the opening pattern 22 having a total number of rounds of 16R but a substantial total number of rounds of 13. That is, 1R to 13R opens the first large winning opening 30 for a maximum of 29.5 seconds per 1R, but 15R only opens the first large winning opening 30 for 0.1 second per 1R, and 14R and Even in the 16R, the second large winning opening 35 is opened for only 0.1 second per 1R (FIG. 13: opening pattern 22). Therefore, in this "16R (effective 13R) V non-passing planned jackpot", the opening time of the big winning opening is extremely short from 14R to 16R, and it becomes an unforeseeable round of winning balls. That is, "16R (13R substantially) V non-passing planned jackpot" is a jackpot of 13R substantially. In 2R, 4R, 6R, 8R, 10R and 12R, although the V open / close member 71 is open, the open is short open (FIG. 14: open pattern 34) and the V area 39 in the first large winning opening 30 It is almost impossible for game balls to pass.

  As is clear from the above description, "16R (essentially 13R) V non-passing jackpot" and "16R (actually 13R) V scheduled planned jackpot" are the first large winning opening 30 and the second large winning opening 35 The open patterns of the open / close member 32 and the open / close member 37) are the same (open pattern 22), and only the open pattern of the V open / close member 71 is different (open pattern 34 and open pattern 33). That is, it is almost impossible for the game ball to pass through the V area 39 in the first large winning opening 30 in "16R (substantially 13R) V non-passing planned jackpot", and the gaming state after the jackpot is It becomes a low probability time short state (low probability high base state). On the other hand, “16R (actually 13R) V scheduled to pass the jackpot” allows the game ball to easily pass to the V area 39 in the first large winning opening 30, and the gaming state after the jackpot is highly probable It becomes time saving state (high probability high base state). From this, it becomes difficult for the player to distinguish between "16R (essentially 13R) V non-passable jackpot" and "16R (essentially 13R) V scheduled planned jackpot", and the gaming state after that jackpot is low certainty It becomes difficult to determine whether the time saving state (low probability high base state) or high probability time short state (high probability high base state) is reached. In other words, the gaming state after “16R (actually 13R) V scheduled to pass the jackpot” is a high probability time short state (high probability high base state when the gaming ball passes through the V area 39 in the first large winning opening 30 However, it is a latent state (a latent probability change state) that the probability is high.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 9, the distribution ratio of the jackpot in the lottery of the first special symbol (special figure 1) is 68/128 (approximately 53%) for V-passing planned jackpot and 60/60 for V-not scheduled planned jackpot. It is 128 (about 47%). On the other hand, jackpots won in the lottery of the second special symbol (special figure 2) are all V passage scheduled jackpots. That is, when the jackpot is won by the lottery based on the winning of the second starting port 21 which can be entered by execution of the electric support control described later, it is always the V-passing scheduled jackpot. As described above, in the gaming machine 1, the jackpot performed with the game ball in the second starting port 21 is performed rather than the jackpot lottery (lottery of the first special symbol) performed with the game ball in the first starting port 20. The lottery (the second special symbol lottery) is set to be advantageous to the player.

5. Description of gaming state The gaming state of the gaming machine 1 will be described. The game control microcomputer 81 can execute "probability fluctuation control" and "variation time reduction control" for the special symbol displayed on the special symbol display 41 and the normal symbol displayed on the normal symbol display 42, respectively. It is. Here, a state in which the game control microcomputer 81 performs probability fluctuation control on the special symbol of the special symbol display 41 is called “high probability state”, and a state in which probability fluctuation control is not performed is simply referred to as “normal probability state ( Non-high probability state, low probability state) The game control microcomputer 81 uses the jackpot determination table (FIG. 8A) in which the number of jackpot random numbers determined to be a jackpot is higher in the high probability state than the normal probability state as the probability variation control of the special symbol. The high probability state is realized by performing the jackpot determination. Therefore, the high probability state has a higher probability of jackpot than the normal probability state. That is, when the game control microcomputer 81 is executing probability variation control on the special symbol of the special symbol display 41, the special symbol indicator 41 is used as compared with the case where probability variation control is not executed. There is a high probability that the display result (stop symbol) of the variable display of the special symbol will be a big hit symbol.

  In addition, the state where microcomputer 81 for game control controls the fluctuation time shortening control to the special symbol of special symbol indicator 41 is called “time saving state”, the state where fluctuation time shortening control is not performed is simply “non time saving state”. It is said. In the time saving state, the variation time of the special symbol (the time from the start of variation display to the time of derivation display of the display result) is shorter than the non-time saving state. The game control microcomputer 81 uses the fluctuation pattern determination table T6 (FIG. 10, FIG. 11) determined so that selection of a fluctuation pattern with a short fluctuation time is more frequent than in the non-time-short state when in the time saving state. The variation pattern used is judged. That is, when the microcomputer 81 for game control is executing the fluctuation time shortening control on the special symbol of the special symbol display 41, the special symbol can be varied as compared to the case where the fluctuation time shortening control is not executed. It becomes easy to select short fluctuation time as fluctuation time of display. As a result, in the time saving state, the pace of the special figure reserve is increased, and a valid winning to the starting opening (a prize that can be stored as the special figure reserve) is easily generated. Thereby, it is possible to aim for a jackpot under the progress of the smooth game. The game control microcomputer 81 may simultaneously execute probability variation control and variation time reduction control on the special symbol of the special symbol display 41 or may execute only one of them.

  The game control microcomputer 81 executes probability fluctuation control and fluctuation time reduction control for the normal symbol of the normal symbol display 42 in synchronization with fluctuation time reduction control for the special symbol of the special symbol display 41. That is, the gaming control microcomputer 81 executes probability fluctuation control and fluctuation time reduction control on the normal symbol in the case of the time saving state and does not execute it in the non-time shortening state. The game control microcomputer 81 determines the number of normal symbol random number values (hit random number values) determined to be successful as the probability variation control of the normal symbol per unit regular symbol per shot determination table T3 in which the time saving state is larger than the non time saving state. Hit determination (normal symbol determination) is performed using FIG. 8 (C). Therefore, in the time saving state, the hit probability is higher than that of the normal symbol normal probability state. That is, when the game control microcomputer 81 is executing probability fluctuation control on the normal symbol of the normal symbol display 42, the normal symbol display 42 is used compared to the case where probability fluctuation control is not executed. The display result (stop symbol) of the variable display of the normal symbol hits and the probability of becoming a symbol increases. In the time saving state, the fluctuation time of the normal symbol is shorter than the non-time saving state. Here, the fluctuation time of the normal symbol is 30 seconds in the non-time-short state, but is 1 second in the time-short state (FIG. 8 (D)). Furthermore, in the time saving state, the open time of the electric chew 22 in the auxiliary game is longer than in the non-time short state (FIG. 12). That is, the gaming control microcomputer 81 executes open time extension control on the electric chew 22. In addition, in the time saving state, the number of times of opening the power chew 22 in the auxiliary game is greater than in the non-time saving state (FIG. 12). That is, the gaming control microcomputer 81 executes the opening count increase control on the power chew 22. Under circumstances where the gaming control microcomputer 81 is executing probability variation control and variation time reduction control for the normal symbol of the normal symbol display 42 and open time extension control and opening number increase control for the electric control 22 As compared with the case where these controls are not executed, the electric chew 22 is opened more frequently, and the gaming ball is more frequently won in the second starting opening 21. As a result, the base which is the ratio of the number of winning balls to the number of firing balls becomes high. Therefore, a state in which these controls are being executed is called a "high base state", and a state not being executed is called a "low base state". In the high base state, it is possible to aim for a jackpot without significantly reducing the number of game balls on hand. The high base state is a state in which so-called power supply control (control for supporting the winning of the second starting port 21 by the power control 22) is being executed. The high base state (power support control state) may not perform all the control described above. That is, among the probability fluctuation control for the ordinary symbol of the ordinary symbol display 42, the fluctuation time shortening control for the ordinary symbol of the ordinary symbol display 42, the opening time extension control for the electric chew 22, and the opening frequency increasing control for the elective chew 22 By performing one or more controls, it is only necessary that the electric tube 22 be more easily released than when the controls are not being executed. Further, the high base state (power support control state) may be controlled independently without being associated with the short time state.

  In gaming machine 1, the gaming state after the jackpot game by winning to V passing scheduled jackpot is a high probability state and time saving state and high base state if passage to V area 39 is made during the jackpot game . This gaming state is particularly referred to as "high probability high base state" or "high probability time short state". The high-accuracy high-base state ends when the variable display of the special symbol is executed a predetermined number of times (here, 160 times), or the jackpot is won and the jackpot game is executed. In addition, the gaming state after the jackpot game by winning to the V non-scheduled scheduled jackpot, if the passage of V area 39 has not been made during the jackpot game (almost not done), normal probability state (non-high probability States (low probability states) and short and high base states. This gaming state is particularly referred to as "low probability high base state", "low probability time short state". The low probability high base state is ended by the variable display of the special symbol a predetermined number of times (here, 100 times) being executed, or the jackpot is won and the jackpot game is executed. When the gaming machine 1 is played for the first time, the gaming state after the power is turned on is the normal probability state, the non-time-short state and the low base state (non-power-supply control state). This gaming state is particularly called "low probability low base state". The low probability low base state may be referred to as "normal gaming state" or "low probability non-short state (also referred to simply as non-short state)". In addition, the state during the execution of the special game (big hit game) is referred to as "special game state (big hit game state)". Furthermore, a state controlled to at least one of the high probability state and the high base state is referred to as a "specific gaming state".

  In a high base state such as a high probability high base state or a low probability high base state, it is possible to advance the game more advantageously if the game ball is made to enter the right gaming area 3B (FIG. 1) by right hitting. The electric support 22 makes it easier to open the electric chew 22 compared to the low base state, and the second start opening 21 is easier to win than the first start opening 20. is there. From this, in the high base state, the game ball is passed to the gate 28 serving as a trigger for the normal symbol lottery, and the right strike is performed to win the game ball to the second starting opening 21. As a result, it is possible to obtain a large number of start winnings (winnings on the starting opening) rather than hitting the left. In addition, in the gaming machine 1, the game is played by hitting the right even during the big hit game. On the other hand, in the low base state, it is possible to advance the game more advantageously if the game ball is made to enter the left gaming area 3A (FIG. 1) by left hitting. Since the power support control is not executed, the power chew 22 is less likely to be released compared to the high base state, and it is easier to win the first start opening 20 than to the second start opening 21. It is because it has become. From this, in the low base state, in order to win the game ball to the first starting opening 20, the left strike is performed. This makes it possible to obtain a large number of starting winnings rather than right-handed.

6. Operation of Game Control Microcomputer 81 The operation of the game control microcomputer 81 provided on the main control board 80 (FIG. 3) will be described with reference to FIGS. A counter, a flag, a status, a buffer and the like appearing in the operation explanation of the gaming control microcomputer 81 are provided in the main RAM 84. The game control microcomputer 81 corresponds to the pass / fail judgment means (FIG. 23) and the pass / fail judgment means (FIG. 18, FIG. 19).

[Main control main processing]
FIG. 15 is a flowchart of the main control main process. When the power of the gaming machine 1 is turned on, the gaming control microcomputer 81 reads a program for executing main control main processing from the main ROM 83. Main Control In the main processing, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first performs initial setting (step S001). In the initial setting, for example, setting of the main CPU 82, resetting of various flags, status, counters and the like are performed. The initial value of the flag is "0" or "OFF", the initial value of the status is "1", and the initial value of the counter is "0". The initial setting is performed only once after the power is turned on, and is not performed thereafter.

  After the initial setting, the gaming control microcomputer 81 prohibits the interruption of the interruption process (step S002), and performs the normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (step S003). In this normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 is configured to receive various random number counter values (big hit random number, big hit type random number value, reach random number value, variation pattern random value) shown in FIG. , Normal symbol random number value) is added 1 and updated. Each random number counter value is returned to "0" and added again when the set upper limit value is reached. The initial value of each random number counter may be a value other than “0”, or may be randomly changed. Each random number may be a so-called hardware random number generated using a known random number generation circuit including a counter IC or the like.

  After the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 permits an interrupt of the interrupt process (step S004). While the interrupt is permitted, execution of the main timer interrupt process (step S005) is possible. The main timer interrupt process is executed based on an interrupt pulse repeatedly input to the main CPU 82 at a predetermined cycle (for example, 4 msec cycle). That is, the main timer interrupt process is executed every predetermined cycle (for example, 4 msec cycle). Then, after the end of the main timer interrupt processing, before the start of the main timer interrupt processing next time, the update processing of various counter values by the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update processing is repeatedly executed. . When an interrupt pulse is input to the main CPU 82 in the interrupt disabled state, the main timer interrupt process is not started immediately, but is started after the interrupt is enabled.

[Main timer interrupt processing]
FIG. 16 is a flowchart of the main timer interrupt process (FIG. 15: step S005). In the main timer interrupt process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first performs a random number update process (step S101). Specifically, the gaming control microcomputer 81 updates the various random number counter values shown in FIG. 7A. This random number updating process is the same as the normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process performed in the above-described main control main process (FIG. 15). That is, the update process of various random number counter values is the execution period of the main timer interrupt process and the other period (period from the end of the main timer interrupt process to the start of the next main timer interrupt process) And both.

  After the random number update process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs an input process (step S102). In the input process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 reads detection signals detected by various sensors attached to the gaming machine 1 and outputs payout data for the payout of a prize ball according to the type of winning opening to the main RAM 84. Set in buffer. The various sensors are, for example, a first starting opening sensor 20a, a second starting opening sensor 21a, a first large winning opening sensor 30a, a second large winning opening sensor 35a, and a normal winning opening sensor 27a (FIG. 3).

  After the input process, the game control microcomputer 81 performs the start opening sensor detection process (step S103), the normal operation process (step S104), the special operation process (step S105), the V area sensor detection process (step S106), the holding ball The number process (step S107) is sequentially performed. Details of these processes will be described later. After the holding ball number process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs an output process (step S108). In the output process, the game control microcomputer 81 outputs a command or the like set in the command set area 84a of the main RAM 84 in each process described above to the sub control board 90. After the output processing, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs other processing (step S109). In the other processing, for example, the second special view suspension indicator 43b is controlled to the display mode indicating the number based on the special diagram 2 suspension ball number described later, and the first special diagram is based on the special view 1 suspension ball number The hold indicator 43a is controlled to a display mode indicating the number.

[Starting mouth sensor detection processing]
FIG. 17 is a flowchart of the starting opening sensor detection process (FIG. 16: step S103). The gaming control microcomputer 81 first determines whether the gaming ball has passed through the gate 28 (step S201). This determination is performed based on whether or not the game ball is detected by the gate sensor 28a. If the game ball has not passed through the gate 28 (step S201: NO), the process skips to step S205. When the gaming ball passes the gate 28 (step S201: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the number of normal symbol holding balls is "4 (upper limit)" (step S202). The number of normal symbol holding balls is the number of common drawing holdings, and more specifically, is the value of a counter for counting the number of common drawing holdings provided in the main RAM 84. If the normal symbol holding ball number is "4" (step S202: YES), the process skips to step S205. If the normal symbol holding ball number is "3" or less (step S202: NO), "1" is added to the normal symbol holding ball number (step S203), and then a normal symbol random number acquisition process is performed (step S204). Here, the gaming control microcomputer 81 acquires the value of the normal symbol random number counter (FIG. 7: the value of the label-TRND-H), and the acquired random number is selected from the first to the first general drawing reserve storage area 86 of the main RAM 84. The fourth storage area is stored in a storage area corresponding to the current number of normal symbol holding balls.

  In step S205, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the gaming ball has won in the second starting opening 21. This determination is performed depending on whether or not the gaming ball has been detected by the second starting opening sensor 21a. If the gaming ball has not won in the second starting opening 21 (step S205: NO), the process skips to step S210. If the gaming ball has won (step S205: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the special figure 2 holding ball number is "4 (upper limit)" (step S206). The special figure 2 holding ball number is the number of second special figure reservations, more specifically, the value of a counter for counting the number of second special figure reservations provided in the main RAM 84. If the special figure 2 reservation sphere number is "4" (Step S206: YES), processing will skip to Step S210. When special figure 2 reservation sphere number is below 3 (step S206: NO), after adding 1 to special figure 2 retention sphere number (step S207), special figure 2 related random number acquisition processing is done (step S208). Here, the value of the jackpot random number counter (FIG. 7: the value of label-TRND-A), the value of jackpot type random number counter (FIG. 7: the value of label-TRND-AS), the value of reach random number counter (FIG. 7: label -TRND-value of RC), value of fluctuation pattern random number counter (Figure 7: value of label-TRND-T1) is acquired. The gaming control microcomputer 81 stores the acquired random number value group out of the first to fourth storage areas of the second special view storage area 85b in a storage area corresponding to the current special map 2 storage ball count. The gaming control microcomputer 81 temporarily suspends the acquired random number value group also to a buffer (prejudging buffer for pre-judging) different from the second special-character drawing storage area 85b for the special drawing 2 prior determination processing (FIG. 18) described later. To remember (hold). After the special figure 2 related random number acquisition process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs a special figure 2 prior determination process (step S209). The details of the special view 2 prior determination process will be described later.

  In step S210, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the gaming ball has won in the first starting opening 20. This determination is made based on whether or not the gaming ball has been detected by the first starting opening sensor 20a. If the gaming ball has not won in the first starting opening 20 (step S210: NO), this processing ends. When the game ball is won in the first starting opening 20 (step S210: YES), the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the special figure 1 holding ball number is "4 (upper limit value)" ( Step S211). The special figure 1 holding ball number is the number of first special figure holdings, and more specifically, is the value of a counter for counting the number of first special drawing holdings provided in the main RAM 84. If the special figure 1 holding ball number is "4" (step S211: YES), this processing ends. When the special figure 1 holding ball number is "3" or less (step S211: NO), after adding "1" to the special figure 1 holding ball number (step S212), special figure 1 related random number acquisition processing is performed (step S2) S213). Here, the value of the big hit random number counter, the value of the big hit type random number counter, the value of the reach random number counter, and the value of the variation pattern random number counter are obtained in the same manner as the special figure 2 related random number acquisition processing (step S208). The gaming control microcomputer 81 stores the acquired random number value group out of the first to fourth storage areas of the first special view storage area 85a in the storage area corresponding to the current special view 1 suspension ball count. The gaming control microcomputer 81 temporarily suspends the acquired random number value group also to a buffer (prejudging buffer for pre-judging) different from the first special-character drawing storage area 85a for the special drawing 1 prior determination process (FIG. 19) described later. To remember (hold). After the special figure 1 related random number acquisition process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs a special figure 1 advance determination process (step S214). The details of the special view 1 prior determination process will be described later.

[Special figure 2 prior judgment processing]
FIG. 18 is a flowchart of the special view 2 prior determination process (FIG. 17: step S209). First, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the probability change flag is ON (step S301). If the probability change flag is OFF (step S301: NO), this process ends. That is, when the probability change flag is OFF, the predetermination is not performed. On the other hand, when the probability change flag is ON, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs the jackpot prior determination with reference to the high probability state table in the jackpot determination table T1 (FIG. 8) (step S302). Specifically, the game control microcomputer 81 first acquires a jackpot random number value as a determination value temporarily stored in the prior determination buffer by the special figure 2 related random number acquisition process (FIG. 17: step S208). Do. Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 uses the jackpot determination table T1 (FIG. 8) to be referred to and the jackpot random number value to determine in advance whether or not a jackpot has occurred. Here, since the high probability state (probability change flag is ON), the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the high probability state table (big hit determination value “0” to “649”) in the big hit determination table T1. Determine in advance whether it is a jackpot by reference. That is, when the jackpot random number value is "0" to "649", the jackpot is determined in advance as "jackpot", and when the value is any other value, it is determined in advance that it is "loss". In the present embodiment, pre-judgment is performed using the jackpot judgment table T1 used in the jackpot judgment process (FIG. 23) described later, but as another embodiment, it is used for prejudgment different from the jackpot judgment table T1 Prior determination may be performed using the jackpot determination table of

  If the result of the jackpot prior determination is “lost” (step S304: NO), the process skips to step S306. On the other hand, if the result of the jackpot prior determination is "big hit" (step S304: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs a jackpot type advance determination (step S305). In the jackpot type advance determination, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first determines the jackpot type random number as a determination value temporarily stored in the advance determination buffer by the special view 2 relationship random number acquisition process (FIG. 17: step S208) To get Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs the preliminary determination of the jackpot type based on the acquired jackpot type random number value and the jackpot type determination table T5 (FIG. 9). Here, even if the jackpot type random number value is any of “0” to “127”, it is determined in advance that “16 RV passage planned jackpot”. In the present embodiment, pre-judgment is performed using the jackpot type judgment table T5 used in the jackpot judgment process (FIG. 23) described later, but as another embodiment, the advance judgment different from the jackpot type judgment table T5 Prior determination may be performed using a jackpot type determination table for determination.

  In step S306, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs a fluctuation pattern prior determination. More specifically, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first determines the fluctuation pattern random number value as the determination value temporarily stored in the prior determination buffer by the special figure 2 related random number acquisition process (FIG. 17: step S208). And, get reach random value. Next, here, since the time saving state (time saving flag is ON), the gaming control microcomputer 81 refers to the variation pattern determination table T6 (FIG. 11) for the time saving state, and the jackpot prior determination result of step S304, The fluctuation pattern is specified from the presence / absence prior determination result of the reach obtained from the reach random number value and the fluctuation pattern random value. In the variation pattern determination table T6 of FIG. 11, the variation pattern to be selected may differ depending on the difference in the number of holding balls. Here, it is assumed that all variation patterns that may be selected due to differences in the number of holding balls are selected. For example, from the jackpot prior determination result and the reach presence / absence prior determination result, the reach presence loss is determined in advance, and when the variation pattern random number value is "60", the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines that the number of holding balls is "1 to 2". In the case of “”, two patterns of the variation pattern “P64” to be selected and the variation pattern “P68” to be selected when the number of holding balls is “3 to 4” are selected. In the present embodiment, the prior determination is performed using the variation pattern determination table T6 used in the variation pattern selection process (FIGS. 24 and 25) described later, but as another embodiment, the variation pattern determination table T6 The prior determination may be performed using a variation pattern determination table for prior determination different from.

  In step S307, the gaming control microcomputer 81 creates an advance determination command. The predetermination command includes a jackpot advance determination result, (in the case of a hit, a jackpot type predetermination result), and a fluctuation pattern predetermination result. The game control microcomputer 81 sets the created prior determination command in the command set area 84a of the main RAM 84 (step S308), and ends this processing.

[Special figure 1 prior judgment processing]
FIG. 19 is a flowchart of the special view 1 prior determination process (FIG. 17: step S214). First, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the probability change flag is ON (step S401). Contrary to the above-described special view 2 prior determination process, when the probability change flag is ON (step S401: YES), this process ends. That is, when the probability change flag is ON, the prior determination is not performed. On the other hand, when the probability change flag is OFF (step S401: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs the jackpot prior determination by referring to the table for the normal probability state in the jackpot determination table T1 (FIG. 8) S402). Specifically, the game control microcomputer 81 first acquires a jackpot random number value as a determination value temporarily stored in the prior determination buffer by the special figure 1 related random number acquisition process (FIG. 17: step S213). Do. Next, here, since the normal probability state (probability change flag is OFF), the gaming control microcomputer 81 is a table for the normal probability state (big hit determination value “0” to “164” in the big hit determination table T1. It determines beforehand whether it is a jackpot based on "). That is, when the jackpot random number value is “0” to “164”, the jackpot is determined in advance as the “jackpot”, and when the value is any other value, it is determined in advance that the “loss” is made. Note that the jackpot prior determination may use a jackpot determination table for prior determination that is different from the jackpot determination table T1. Since the processes of steps S404 to S408 are the same as steps S304 to S308 of the special view 2 advance determination process (FIG. 18) described above, the description will be omitted.

[Normal operation processing]
FIG. 20 is a flowchart of the normal operation process (FIG. 16: step S104). First, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the electric chew 22 is in operation (step S501). If the electric chew 22 is in operation (step S501: YES), the process proceeds to step S520. If the electric chew 22 is not in operation (step S501: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the normal symbol is changing (step S502). If the symbol is changing normally (step S502: YES), the process skips to step S508. When the variation of the normal symbol is not in progress (step S502: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the number of holding balls of the normal symbol is "0" (step S503). When the number of holding balls is "0" (step S503: YES), this process ends. If there is one or more holding ball number (step S503: NO), the normal symbol holding ball number is decremented by 1 (step S504). Therefore, when the game ball passes the gate 28 in the state where the number of balls in the normal symbol is "0", the number of balls in the normal symbol is temporarily "1" in step S203 of the start opening sensor detection process (FIG. 17). After that, in the present step S504, the reserve is digested and the number of reserved balls of the normal symbol immediately becomes "0". The same applies to the number of balls held for special symbols. That is, in step S207 and step S212 of the starting opening sensor detection process (FIG. 17), the number of reserved special symbols temporarily becomes "1", and then step S1404 and steps in the special symbol standby process (FIG. 22) described later. In S1410, the reserve is digested and the number of reserved balls in the special symbol becomes "0". Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs a hit determination with reference to the normal symbol hit determination table T3 (FIG. 8C) (step S505). Specifically, first, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the normal symbol random number value (as the determination value) stored in the first storage area (corresponding to the first of the common drawing suspension) of the common drawing suspension storage area 86 Read the random number value). Then, it is determined whether or not a hit is made using the normal symbol random number value, the gaming state (whether the time saving state or not), and the normal symbol hit determination table T3. For example, in the non-time saving state, if the normal symbol random number value is "0" to "2", it is determined to be "hit", and if the normal symbol random number value is other than that, it is determined to be "loss" (See FIG. 8 (C)).

  Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 selects a variation pattern with reference to the normal symbol variation pattern determination table T4 (FIG. 8D) (step S506). Specifically, the game control microcomputer 81 first determines the gaming state (whether the time reduction state or not), and uses the determination result of the gaming state and the normal symbol fluctuation pattern judgment table T4 to change the normal symbol fluctuation. Select the variation time of the normal pattern as a pattern. Here, in the non-time-short state, the variation time of the normal symbol is determined to be "30 seconds", and in the time-short state, the variation time of the normal symbol is determined to be "1 second" (see FIG. 8D) . The game control microcomputer 81 starts the variation display of the normal symbol by setting the selected normal symbol variation pattern (step S507).

  In step S508, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the variation time of the normal symbol has elapsed and has ended. The normal symbol fluctuation time is the fluctuation time selected in step S506 (see FIG. 8D). When the fluctuation time has not ended (step S508: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 ends the present processing. That is, the variable display of the normal symbol is continued. On the other hand, when the fluctuation time is over (step S508: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 stops the fluctuation display (step S509), and in the case of "losing" in the above-mentioned hit determination (step S505). (Step S510: NO), this process ends. On the other hand, in the case of "hit" in the above-mentioned hit determination (step S510: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the power chew open pattern (step S511). The open pattern of the electric chew 22 is selected with reference to the electric chew open pattern determination table T7 (FIG. 12A). Specifically, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines the gaming state (whether the time reduction state or not), and uses the determination result of the gaming state and the electric chew open pattern judgment table T7 to use the open pattern of the electric chew 22. Choose Here, the "opening pattern 11" is selected in the non-time-short state, and the "opening pattern 12" is selected in the time-short state. After the opening pattern is selected, the gaming control microcomputer 81 starts the power-on operation so as to follow the selected opening pattern (step S512), and ends this processing.

  In the above-described step S501, when the electric chew 22 is in operation (step S501: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the closing condition of the electric chew 22 is satisfied (step S520). The closing condition here is that the number of winning prizes for the electric chow 22 has reached a prescribed maximum winning number (for example, six), or the time for which the electric chow 22 is closed after the operation time of the electric chow 22 is closed It is that one of the achievements is satisfied. The operation time of the electric chow 22 is an operation time corresponding to the opening pattern selected in step S511. If the closing condition of the electric chew 22 is not satisfied (step S520: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 ends the present process. On the other hand, when the closing condition of the electric chew 22 is satisfied (step S520: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 closes (blocks) the electric chew 22 and stops its operation (step S521) Finish.

[Special operation processing]
FIG. 21 is a flowchart of the special operation process (FIG. 16: step S105). Here, the processing relating to the special symbol display 41 and the big winning device (the first big winning device 31 and the second big winning device 36) is divided into four stages, and each stage is “1” of “special operation status”, Called "2", "3", "4". When the “special operation status” is “1” (step S1301: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs a special symbol standby process (step S1302). In the special symbol standby process, jackpot determination, variation pattern selection and the like are executed. When the "special operation status" is "2" (step S1301: NO, step S1303: YES), the special symbol change process is performed (step S1304). In the special symbol change processing, the output of the change stop command is executed after the change time has elapsed. When the "special operation status" is "3" (steps S1301, S1303: NO, step S1305: YES), special symbol determination processing is performed (step S1306). In the special symbol determination process, an output of an opening command or the like is executed at the time of a jackpot. When the "special operation status" is "4" (steps S1301, S1303, S1305: NO), special electric combination processing is performed (step S1308). In the special electric role processing, a jackpot game is executed. Details of each of the above processes will be described later. The special operation status is “1” in the initial setting.

[Special symbol standby process]
FIG. 22 is a flowchart of the special symbol standby process (FIG. 21: step S1302). In the special symbol standby process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first determines whether or not the special view 2 holding ball number is "0" (step S1401). When the special figure 2 reservation sphere number is “0” (step S1401: YES), that is, in the second special figure reservation storage area 85b, the random value group acquired due to the winning of the second starting port 21 If there is no memory, the process proceeds to step S1407. If the special figure 2 holding ball number is “1” or more (step S1401: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 executes the jackpot determination process (step S1402) and the variation pattern selection process (step S1403). Details of these processes will be described later. After the variation pattern selection process, the special figure 2 holding ball number is decremented by one (step S1404). Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 reads the storage location of the hold information (various random number values) stored in the first to fourth storage areas of the second special view hold storage area 85b to the side where the storage location is read from the current position. While shifting by one, the hold information stored in the farthest place from the side to be read out in the second special-image hold storage area 85b is cleared (step S1405). For example, when the hold information is stored in the first to third storage areas, the hold information stored in the third storage area is cleared and the hold information is stored in the first to fourth storage areas. If there is, the hold information stored in the fourth storage area is cleared. By the above-described steps, the second Tokusou reserve is digested in the order in which it is suspended. In this case, on the display screen 7a of the image display device 7, the holding image 9B (the leftmost holding image 9B among the four holding images 9B) corresponding to the first storage area of the second special It shifts to the reserve digest image display area side and is displayed as a reserve digest image 9C. In addition, the reserve images 9B (the second, third and fourth reserve images 9B from the left among the four reserve images 9B) corresponding to the second to fourth storage areas of the second special view reserve storage area 85b are on the left side, respectively. Shift one (Figure 1). As a result, the player can recognize that one second Tokusetsu reserve has been digested. Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs special figure 2 fluctuation start processing (step S1406). In the special figure 2 fluctuation start process, the fluctuation start command is set in the command set area 84a of the main RAM 84, and the fluctuation display of the second special symbol is started, and the fluctuation time timer is set. The fluctuation time determined according to the fluctuation pattern selected in the fluctuation pattern selection process is set in the fluctuation time timer. Further, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the special operation status to "2". In addition, in the fluctuation start command (special figure 2 fluctuation start command) set in the special figure 2 fluctuation start process, information about the special figure stop symbol data set in the big hit judgment process (step S1402) and the fluctuation pattern selection process ( Information on the fluctuation pattern set in step S1403) (including information on fluctuation time) is included.

  In step S1401, when the special figure 2 holding ball number is “0” (step S1401: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the special figure 1 holding ball number is “0” ( Step S1407). When the special figure 1 reservation ball number is “0” (step S1407: YES), that is, in the first special figure reservation storage area 85a, the random value group acquired due to the winning of the first starting port 20 If there is no memory, the process proceeds to step S1413. When the special figure 1 holding ball number is “1” or more (step S1407: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 executes the jackpot determination process (step S1408) and the variation pattern selection process (step S1409). Details of these processes will be described later. After the variation pattern selection process, the special figure 1 holding ball number is decremented by one (step S1410). Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 shifts the storage location of the various random number values stored in the first to fourth storage areas of the first special view storage area 85a to the side read from the current position by one. At the same time, the hold information stored in the farthest place from the side to be read out in the first special image hold storage area 85a is cleared (step S1411). By the above-described steps, the first special map reservation is digested in the order in which it is held. In this case, on the display screen 7a of the image display device 7, the hold image 9A (the hold image 9A at the right end of the four hold images 9A) corresponding to the first storage area of the first special It shifts to the reserve digest image display area side and is displayed as a reserve digest image 9C. In addition, reserve images 9A (the second, third and fourth reserve images 9A from the left among the four reserve images 9A) corresponding to the second to fourth storage areas of the first special view reserve storage area 85a are on the right side, respectively. Shift one (Figure 1). As a result, the player can recognize that one first Tokusetsu reserve has been digested. Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs special figure 1 fluctuation start processing (step S1412). In the special figure 1 fluctuation start process, the fluctuation start command is set in the command set area 84a of the main RAM 84, and the fluctuation display of the first special symbol is started, and the fluctuation time timer is set. The fluctuation time determined according to the fluctuation pattern selected in the fluctuation pattern selection process is set in the fluctuation time timer. Further, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the special operation status to "2" (step S1406). In addition, in the fluctuation start command (special figure 1 fluctuation start command) set in the special figure 1 fluctuation start process, information about the special figure stop symbol data set in the big hit judgment process (step S1408) and the fluctuation pattern selection process ( Information on the variation pattern set in step S1409) (including information on variation time) is included.

  In step S1407, when the special figure 1 holding ball number is “0” (step S1407: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the display screen 7a of the image display device 7 is a standby screen (step S1413). The standby screen is a demonstration screen for waiting for customers. The gaming control microcomputer 81 may determine, for example, by turning on / off the demonstration screen display flag for waiting for a customer. If it is the standby screen (step S1413: YES), this process ends. If it is not the standby screen (step S1413: NO), the game control microcomputer 81 sets a customer waiting standby command for displaying a standby scene in the command set area 84a of the main RAM 84 after a predetermined standby time has elapsed. (Step S1414), this processing ends. As described above, according to the special symbol standby process of the present embodiment, the variation display of the special symbol based on the first special view suspension is executed only when the second special view suspension is "0". That is, the second special view reserve digest is executed prior to the first special view reserve digest. Further, according to the jackpot type determination table T5 of the present embodiment, the jackpot based on the second special view suspension is a jackpot (V passing scheduled jackpot) for the player with a larger profit for the player than the lottery based on the first special view suspension. It is easy to win the

[Big hit judgment processing]
FIG. 23 is a flowchart of the jackpot determination process (FIG. 22: steps S1402 and S1408). The jackpot determination process (step S1402) of the special figure 2 and the jackpot determination process (step S1408) of the special figure 1 have the same process flow, and therefore will be collectively described. In the jackpot determination process, first, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the probability change flag is ON (step S1501). If the probability change flag is ON (step S1501: YES), the jackpot determination is performed with reference to the high probability state table in the jackpot determination table T1 (FIG. 8) (step S1502). Specifically, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first reads a jackpot random number value as a determination value. For example, in the jackpot determination process of the special view 2, the jackpot random number value stored in the first storage area (corresponding to the first of the second special view hold) of the second special view hold storage area 85b is read. In the jackpot determination process of the special view 1, the jackpot random number value stored in the first storage area (corresponding to the first of the first special view hold) of the first special view hold storage area 85a is read. Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not a jackpot is made using the jackpot determination table T1 to be referred to and the jackpot random number value. Here, since the high probability state (probability change flag is ON), whether or not the big hit is made based on the high probability state table (big hit determination value is “0” to “649”) in the big hit determination table T1 judge.

  In step S1501, when the probability change flag is OFF (step S1501: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs the jackpot determination with reference to the table for the normal probability state in the jackpot determination table T1 (FIG. 8) ( Step S1504). Specifically, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first reads the jackpot random number value by the same method as step S1502. Next, here, since the normal probability state (probability change flag is OFF), whether the jackpot based on the table for the normal probability state (jackpot determination value “0” to “164”) in the jackpot determination table T1 It is determined whether or not.

  If the result of the jackpot determination is "big hit" (steps S1503, S1505: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 turns on the jackpot flag (step S1506) and determines the jackpot type (step S1507). Specifically, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first reads out the jackpot type random number value as the determination value. For example, in the jackpot determination process of the special view 2, the jackpot type random number value stored in the first storage area of the second special view reservation storage area 85b is read. In the jackpot determination process of the special view 1, the jackpot type random number value stored in the first storage area of the first special view reservation storage area 85a is read. Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines the jackpot type based on the read jackpot type random number value and the jackpot type determination table T5 (FIG. 9). After the determination of the jackpot type, the special figure stop symbol data (FIG. 9) according to the identified jackpot type is set in the jackpot type buffer provided in the main RAM 84 (step S1520), and this processing is ended. On the other hand, in step S1503 or step S1505, when the result of the big hit determination is "loss", the special figure stop symbol data (01H) according to the lost symbol is set in the big hit type buffer provided in the main RAM 84 (step S1520) , End this process.

[Variation pattern selection process]
24 and 25 are flowcharts of the variation pattern selection process (FIG. 22: steps S1403 and S1409). The variation pattern selection process (step S1403) of the special figure 2 and the variation pattern selection process (step S1409) of the special figure 1 have the same process flow, and therefore will be collectively described. In the variation pattern selection process, first, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the gaming state is the short time state (step S1600). The determination as to whether or not the time saving state is made depends on whether the time saving flag is ON. When it is in the time saving state (step S1600: YES), the process proceeds to step S1612. If the time saving state is not set (step S1600: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the jackpot flag is ON (step S1602). If the jackpot flag is OFF (step S1602: NO), the process proceeds to step S1607. If the jackpot flag is ON (step S1602: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the jackpot is the special view 2 (step S1603). If the jackpot is the special view 2 (step S1603: YES), the jackpot type is always the V-passing scheduled jackpot, so the process skips to step S1605. If the jackpot is special view 1 (step S1603: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the jackpot type is the V passage scheduled jackpot (step S1604), and the jackpot type determination is set in the main RAM 84. It is carried out based on the special figure stop symbol data being done.

  If the jackpot type is V passage planned jackpot (step S1604: YES), the microcomputer for gaming control 81 changes with reference to the non-time-short state V passage planned jackpot table of the variation pattern determination table T6 (FIG. 10) A pattern is selected (step S1605). Specifically, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first reads out the fluctuation pattern random number value as the determination value. For example, in the variation pattern selection process of the special view 2, the variation pattern random number value stored in the first storage area (corresponding to the first of the second special view suspension) of the second special view suspension storage area 85b is read. In the variation pattern selection process of the special figure 1, the variation pattern random number value stored in the first storage area (corresponding to the first of the first special figure retention) of the first special figure retention storage area 85a is read out. Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 selects a variation pattern using the variation pattern determination table T6 and the variation pattern random number value. Here, as a table for the non-time short state V passing scheduled jackpot, a portion corresponding to the V passing scheduled jackpot in the variation pattern determination table T6 for non-time short status shown in FIG. 10 (the variation pattern is “P1 in FIG. The part from “P3” to “P3”, and from “P21” to “P23” as the variation pattern in Special Figure 2 is referred to (address is set). From the read variation pattern random value, any one of "P1" to "P3" is selected as a variation pattern in Special Figure 1 and any one from "P21" to "P23" is selected in Special Figure 2.

  If the jackpot type is V non-passing planned jackpot (step S1604: NO), the microcomputer for game control 81 refers to the table for non-time-short state V non-passing planned jackpot in the variation pattern determination table T6 (FIG. 10). Then, the variation pattern is selected (step S1606). Here, as a table for the non-time short state V non-passing scheduled jackpot, a portion ("P4" to "P6") corresponding to the V non-passing scheduled jackpot among the variation pattern determination table T6 for non-time short status shown in FIG. Part) is referenced. One of “P4” to “P6” is selected as the fluctuation pattern from the read fluctuation pattern random value.

  If the big hit flag is off in step S1602 (step S1602: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the reach random number is a reach establishment random number (step S1607). Specifically, the gaming control microcomputer 81 first reads out the reach random number value as the determination value. In the variation pattern selection process of the special view 2, the reach random number value stored in the first storage area (corresponding to the first of the second special view hold) of the second special view hold storage area 85b is read. In the variation pattern selection process of the special view 1, the reach random number value stored in the first storage area (corresponding to the first of the first special view hold) of the first special view hold storage area 85a is read. Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines the presence or absence of the reach using the reach determination table T2 (FIG. 8 (B)) and the reach random number value. Here, since it is in the non-time-short state, in the reach determination table T2, the table for the non-time-short state (the reach presence determination value (reach establishment random number value) is a portion of “0” to “13”) Determine the presence or absence.

  If the reach random number value is the reach establishment random number value (step S1607: YES), that is, if there is a reach presence loss, the gaming control microcomputer 81 is in the non-time-short state of the fluctuation pattern determination table T6 (FIG. 10). The variation pattern is selected with reference to the reach presence loss table (step S1608). Here, as a table for loss with non-time-short status reach, a portion corresponding to reach-with-miss in fluctuation pattern determination table T6 for non-time-short status shown in FIG. 10 (the variation pattern is “P7” in In the part "P14", in the special figure 2, the variation pattern is referred to as "P24" to "P31"). In Special Figure 1, any one of "P7" to "P14" is selected as the variation pattern from the read variation pattern random number value and the current special figure 1 holding ball number (1 to 4). In Special Figure 2, any of "P24" to "P31" is selected as the variation pattern from the read variation pattern random number value and the current special figure 2 holding ball number (1 to 4). Since the variation pattern to be selected changes depending on the number of holding balls, the function of the shortening variation according to the number of holding balls works. That is, in both of the special drawing 1 and the special drawing 2, when the number of holding balls is “3” to “4”, the fluctuation time is compared with when the number of holding balls is “1” to “2”. Short variation patterns are more likely to be selected. This makes it possible to speed up the speed at which special figures are suspended when the number of balls held is large.

  If the reach random number value is not the reach establishment random number value (step S1607: NO), that is, if there is no reach loss, the gaming control microcomputer 81 is in the non-time-short state of the fluctuation pattern determination table T6 (FIG. 10). The variation pattern is selected with reference to the no reach loss table (step S1609). Here, as a table for non-short time reach non-reach loss, a portion corresponding to non-reach non-reach out of fluctuation pattern determination table T6 for non-time short state shown in FIG. 10 (the fluctuation pattern is “P15” in special figure 1 to In the part "P16", in the special figure 2, the variation pattern is referred to as "P32" to "P33". In Special Figure 1, either "P15" or "P16" is selected as the variation pattern from the read variation pattern random number value and the current special figure 1 holding ball number (1 to 4). In the special figure 2, either "P32" or "P33" is selected as the variation pattern from the read variation pattern random number value and the current special figure 2 holding ball number (1 to 4). Here also, since the variation pattern to be selected changes depending on the number of holding balls, the function of the shortening variation according to the number of holding balls works.

  When it is determined in step S1600 that the gaming state is the short time state, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the jackpot flag is ON (FIG. 25: step S1612). The processes in steps S1613 to S1619 are the same as the processes in steps S1603 to S1609 described above except for the following points. The difference between the processing of steps S1613 to S1619 and the processing of steps S1603 to S1609 is that the portions of the fluctuation pattern determination table T6 to be referred to in steps S1615, S1616, S1618, and S1619 have already been described in steps S1605, S1606, S1608, and S1609. It is different from Specifically, in S1605, S1606, S1608, and S1609, while the variation pattern determination table T6 (FIG. 10) for the non-short time state is referred to, in steps S1615, S1616, S1618, and S1619, the time short state is used. The variation pattern determination table T6 (FIG. 11) is referred to. For example, in the case of step S1615, that is, when the jackpot type is V passage scheduled jackpot, a portion corresponding to V passage scheduled jackpot in the variation pattern determination table T6 for time shortening state shown in FIG. Are referred to as “P41” to “P43”, and the special pattern 2 refers to “P61” to “P63” as the variation pattern. From the read variation pattern random number value, any one of "P41" to "P43" is selected as a variation pattern in Special Figure 1 and any one of "P61" to "P63" is selected in Special Figure 2. Also, for example, in the case of step S1616, that is, when the jackpot type is V non-passing planned jackpot, a portion corresponding to V non-passing planned jackpot in the variation pattern determination table T6 for the short time state shown in FIG. "To" P46 "is referred to. One of “P44” to “P46” is selected as the variation pattern from the read variation pattern random value.

  After selecting the fluctuation pattern as described above, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the selected fluctuation pattern (step S1630) and ends the present processing. The information of the set fluctuation pattern is included in the fluctuation start command and transmitted to the sub control board 90 in the output process (FIG. 16: step S108). Thereby, the variable display of the special symbol is started.

[Process during special symbol change]
FIG. 26 is a flowchart of the special symbol variation process (FIG. 21: step S1304). First, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the variation time of the special symbol has elapsed and has ended (step S1701). The variation time of the special symbol is the variation time determined according to the variation pattern selected in the above-mentioned variation pattern selection process (FIG. 24, FIG. 25). If the fluctuation time has not ended (step S1701: NO), this processing ends. That is, the variation display of the special symbol started in step S1406 or S1412 of the special symbol standby process (FIG. 22) is continued. On the other hand, if the fluctuation time has ended (step S1701: YES), the fluctuation stop command is set (step S1702), and the special operation status is set to "3" (step S1703). In addition, the game control microcomputer 81 performs other processing in response to the fluctuation stop (step S1704). For example, the game control microcomputer 81 performs a process of stopping the variation display of the special symbol with a symbol according to the set special symbol stop symbol data. Thereafter, the gaming control microcomputer 81 ends the present process.

[Special symbol confirmation process]
FIG. 27 is a flowchart of special symbol determination processing (FIG. 21: step S1306). First, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs gaming state management processing (step S1801). The game state management process is a process for managing the number of times of ST and the number of times of time reduction, and the contents will be described later. After the gaming state management processing, it is determined whether the jackpot flag is ON (step S1802). If the jackpot flag is OFF (step S1802: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the special operation status to "1" (step S1808), and the present process is ended. Thereby, the jackpot game is not started, and the process shifts to the special symbol standby process (FIG. 22) again, and the jackpot determination etc. for the next hold is executed.

  If the jackpot flag is ON (step S1802: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the opening pattern of the big winning opening and the V opening / closing member according to the type of the jackpot winning (step S1803). Specifically, with reference to the special winning opening open pattern determination table T8 (FIG. 13), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines the opening pattern of the special winning opening from the special view stop symbol data, and the determined open pattern set. For example, when the special figure stop symbol data is "11H", "opening pattern 21" is set as the opening pattern of the special winning opening. Further, the game control microcomputer 81 determines the open pattern of the V open / close member 71 from the special view stop symbol data with reference to the V open / close member open pattern determination table T9 (FIG. 14) and sets the determined open pattern. . For example, when the special figure stop symbol data is "11H", "open pattern 31" is set as the open pattern of the V open / close member 71. The value of the round counter is set to the number of rounds according to the type of the jackpot which has been won, together with the set of the opening pattern of the big winning opening and the V opening / closing member. The round counter counts the number of unit opening games (round games) executed during the jackpot game. Here, “16” is set to the round counter (FIG. 13 (B)).

  After setting the release pattern, the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs gaming state reset processing (step S1804). The game state reset process is a process for resetting (returning to OFF) the probability change flag and the time saving flag, and the contents will be described later. After the game state reset process, in order to start the jackpot game, the jackpot opening command is set (step S1805), and the opening is started (step S1806). Thereafter, the special operation status is set to "4" (step S1807), and the process ends.

[Playing state management processing]
FIG. 28 is a flowchart of the gaming state management process (FIG. 27: step S1801). First, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the probability change flag is ON (step S2001). If the probability change flag is OFF (step S2001: NO), the process skips to step S2005. If the probability variation flag is ON (step S2001: YES), the value of the probability variation counter is decremented by 1 (step S2002). The probability variation counter counts the number of times of variation of the special symbol executed during the high probability state. Here, “160” is set in the probability change counter at the time of transition to the high probability state. The game control microcomputer 81 determines whether the value of the counter has become "0" as a result of decrementing the probability change counter by 1 (step S2003). If the value of the probability change counter is not “0” (step S2003: NO), the process skips to step S2005. If the value of the probability variation counter is "0" (step S2003: YES), the probability variation flag is switched to OFF (step S2004).

  In step S2005, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the time saving flag is ON. If the time saving flag is OFF (step S2005: NO), the process skips to step S2009. If the time saving flag is ON (step S2005: YES), the value of the time saving counter is decremented by 1 (step S2006). The time saving counter is to count the number of times of variation of the special symbol executed during the time saving state. Here, at the time of transition to the time saving state, "100" is set in the time reduction counter if the low probability high base state, and "160" is set in the time reduction counter if the high probability high base state. The microcomputer for game control 81 determines whether or not the value of the counter has become “0” as a result of decrementing the time reduction counter by 1 (step S2007). If the value of the time saving counter is not “0” (step S2007: NO), the process skips to step S2009. If the value of the time saving counter is “0” (step S2007: YES), the time saving flag is switched to OFF (step S2008).

  In step S2009, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets a gaming state designating command in the command set area (output buffer) 84a of the main RAM 84, and completes this processing. The game state specification command includes information on the currently set game state (whether or not a probability change state, a probability change counter value, a time reduction state, a time reduction counter value, etc.).

[Playing state reset process]
FIG. 29 is a flowchart of the gaming state reset process (FIG. 27: step S1804). First, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the probability change flag is ON (step S2101). If the probability change flag is OFF (step S2101: NO), the process skips to step S2103. If the probability change flag is ON (step S2101: YES), the probability change flag is switched to OFF (step S2102). In step S2103, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the time saving flag is ON. If the time saving flag is OFF (step S2103: NO), this process ends. If the time saving flag is ON (step S2103: YES), the time saving flag is switched OFF (step S2104). That is, during the execution of the jackpot game, the non-high probability state and the non-short time state. In the gaming machine 1, since the low base state is always in the non-time-short state, the low base state is in progress during the jackpot game.

[Special electric role processing]
FIG. 30 is a flowchart of the special electric symbol processing (FIG. 21: step S1308). First, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the big hit end flag is ON (step S2200). The "big hit end flag" is a flag indicating that all the big winning devices (the first big winning device 31 and the second big winning device 36) are completely opened based on the opening pattern in the running big hit game. If the big hit end flag is ON (step S2200: YES), the process proceeds to step S2230. When the big hit end flag is OFF (step S2200: NO), V opening and closing member operation processing for operating the V opening and closing member 71 is performed (step S2201). The V open / close member 71 of the present embodiment is configured to operate when a predetermined number of gaming balls are won in the first big winning opening 30, and in the V open / close member operation process, according to the V open / close member open pattern T9. The V opening and closing member 71 is opened for a predetermined period when the predetermined number of game balls are to be won. Details of the V open / close member operation process will be described later. After the V open / close member operation process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the big winning opening (the first big winning opening 30 and the second big winning opening 35) is open (step S2202). If it is open (YES in step S2202), the process proceeds to step S2210.

  When the special winning opening is not open (step S2202: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether it is time (timing) to open the special winning opening (step S2203). In the time of opening the big winning opening, for example, when the opening time of the big hit has passed and it has reached the opening start time in the first round game, or the big winning opening which is temporarily closed after opening is reopened It includes the time when the interval time (closing time) has passed and it is time to start opening again. If it is not time to open the special winning opening (step S2203: NO), the process proceeds to step S2220.

  If it is time to open the special winning opening (timing) (step S2203: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 performs a special winning opening opening process (step S2207). Specifically, the game control microcomputer 81 opens the large winning opening (the first large winning opening 30 or the second large winning opening 35) in accordance with the opening pattern (FIG. 13) corresponding to the type of the big hit. After the special winning opening opening process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets a round designating command (step S2208). The round designating command includes information on the number of rounds of the jackpot game being executed, and the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the round designating command in the output buffer of the main RAM 84. In addition, in this embodiment, the opening of the big winning a prize opening of a plurality of times is not made in one round game. However, as another embodiment, when the large winning opening is opened a plurality of times during one round game, the gaming control microcomputer 81 is configured to open the large winning opening in one round. It may be determined whether or not it is the first release, and the round designation command may be set only in the case of the first release. After setting the round designation command, the process ends.

  In step S2202 described above, if the special winning opening is open (YES in step S2202), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the closing condition of the special winning opening is satisfied (step S2210). The closing condition here is that the number of winning prizes for the special winning opening in the round game has reached the prescribed maximum winning number (for example, 9 per round), or it has reached the time for closing the special winning mouth That is, either (that is, that a predetermined opening time (FIG. 13) has elapsed since the opening of the special winning opening) is satisfied. Then, if the closing condition of the special winning opening is not satisfied (step S2210: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 ends the present processing. On the other hand, when the closing condition of the special winning opening is satisfied (step S2210: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 closes (blocks) the special winning opening (step S2211).

  If it is not the time (timing) to open the special winning opening in the above-described step S2203, the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the round game has ended (step S2220). Here, one round ends after a predetermined time (here, 2 seconds) elapses after the big winning opening is closed. As mentioned above, it is because time (interval time) of closing of a big winning opening between round games is included in the opening round game before the closing. The gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the round game is over depending on whether or not a predetermined interval time has elapsed since the closing of the special winning opening. If the round game has not ended (step S2220: NO), the game control microcomputer 81 ends the present process.

  When the round game is over (step S2220: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the value of the round counter to 1 decrement (step S2221), and the value of the round counter is "0" or not A determination is made (step S2226). If the value of the round counter is "0" (step S2226: NO), that is, if the defined number of round games has not been digested yet, the present process is ended to start the next round game. On the other hand, when the value of the round counter is “0”, the jackpot ending command is set as the jackpot end processing for ending the jackpot game (step S2227), and the jackpot ending is started (step S2228). In the present embodiment, the ending time (for example, 18 seconds) when there is a passage of gaming balls to the V region 39 in “16R (essentially 13R) V planned to pass jackpot” is “16R (essentially 13R) V non-passable scheduled It is the same length as the ending time when there is no passage of the gaming ball to the V area 39 in the "big hit". As a result, even if the game ball passes to the V region 39 in the "16R (essential 13R) V scheduled planned jackpot" for the player, the "16R (essentially 13R) V non-scheduled projected jackpot" And the passage of the gaming ball to the V area 39 can be recognized. In addition, the ending time when there is no passage of the game ball to V field 39 in "16R (actually 13R) V passage planned jackpot" is also the same length as these. After the start of the jackpot ending, the jackpot end flag is set to ON (step S2229), and the process ends.

  In the above-mentioned step S2200, when the big hit end flag is ON (step S2200: YES), since the last round is finished, the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the ending time of the big hit has passed. (Step S2230). If the ending time has not elapsed (step S2230: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 ends the present processing. On the other hand, when the ending time has elapsed (step S2230: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 turns off the big hit end flag (step S2231) and turns off the big hit flag (step S2232), and the special operation status Is set to "1" (step S2233). Thereby, the special symbol standby process (step S1302) is executed again in the next special operation process. Thereafter, a game state setting process (step S2234) described later is executed to complete this process.

[V opening and closing member operation processing]
FIG. 31 is a flowchart of the V opening / closing member operation process (FIG. 30: step S2201). The gaming control microcomputer 81 first determines whether the current round game (the round) is the opening round of the V opening / closing member 71 (step S2501). Here, the second round, the fourth round, the sixth round, the eighth round, the tenth round, and the twelfth round correspond to the opening round of the V opening / closing member 71. When the value of the round counter is “15”, “13”, “11”, “9”, “7”, “5”, the gaming control microcomputer 81 can determine that it is an open round. When it is not the open round of the V opening / closing member 71 (step S2501: NO), this process ends. This is because there is no need to operate the V open / close member 71 in the round.

  If it is the opening round of the V opening / closing member 71 (step S2501: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the first winning flag is ON (step S2502). The “first winning flag” is a flag indicating that the first big winning opening 30 has a first prize in the round. If the first winning flag is ON (step S2502: YES), the process proceeds to step S2520. If the first winning flag is OFF (step S2502: NO), it is determined whether a first winning is detected (step S2503). If the first ball winning combination has not been detected (step S2503: NO), this processing ends. This is because there is no winning in the first large winning opening 30 in the round, and there is no need to operate the V opening / closing member 71.

  When the first ball winning combination is detected (step S2503: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 opens the V open / close member 71 for short and performs V effective period setting processing (step S2504). In the opening pattern of the V opening / closing member 71 (FIG. 14B), the V opening / closing member 71 is short-opened, regardless of whether “short opening” or “long opening”, the first ball is won Sometimes it is to execute short release (here 0.1 second). Since the open time of the V open / close member 71 is very short in the short open of the V open / close member 71, the first game ball that has won the first large winning opening 30 does not pass the V area 39 and is not It is configured to pass through the V region 70. In the V effective period setting process, while the V open / close member 71 is open and for several seconds after the V open / close member 71 is closed, the V effective period in which the detection of the gaming ball by the V area sensor 39a is effective is set. Here, the game control microcomputer 81 opens the V open / close member 71 for short in accordance with the open pattern of the V open / close member 71 (FIG. 14B) and opens the V open / close member 71. And 1 second after closing is set to V effective period. The game control microcomputer 81 sets a period other than the V-effective period (including the case where the jackpot game is not executed) as a V-ineffective period in which the detection of the gaming ball by the V area sensor 39a is determined to be ineffective. Here, "determining that the detection of the game ball by the V area sensor 39a is effective" means that the V flag is turned on based on the detection of the game ball by the V area sensor 39a (V area sensor detection described later) Processing (see FIG. 33)). In addition, “determining the detection of the gaming ball by the V area sensor 39a as invalid” means that the V flag is not turned on even when the detection of the gaming ball by the V area sensor 39a is performed. The reason why the V effective period includes a few seconds after the closing of the V open / close member 71 (ball brushing period) is because there is a physical distance between the V open / close member 71 and the V region sensor 39a. It takes into consideration the period until the gaming ball having entered the V area 39 side immediately before the closing of the V opening / closing member 71 is detected by the V area sensor 39a. That is, in this case, the V flag is turned ON only when V passage (V game region passes to V region 39) during the V effective period is detected, and V flag is detected when V passage is detected outside the V effective period (V invalid period). It is decided not to turn it on. When the V flag is ON, the probability change flag is ON, that is, the gaming state after the big hit game is set to the high probability state (see later-described gaming state setting processing (FIG. 32)). By doing this, the V flag is turned on based on the V passage due to the fraudulent action, and the high probability state is not set. After the short open of the V open / close member 71 and the V effective period setting process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 switches the first winning flag to ON (step S2505), and proceeds to step S2540.

  In step S2502, if the first winning flag is ON, that is, if there is already a first ball winning (step S2502: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the second winning flag is ON or not (Step S2520). The “second winning flag” is a flag indicating that the first large winning opening 30 has a second winning in a case where the open pattern of the V open / close member 71 in the round is long open. If the second winning flag is ON (step S 2520: YES), the process proceeds to step S 2540. If the second winning flag is OFF (step S 2520: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the open pattern of the V open / close member 71 in the round is long open (step S 2521). If the long release is not performed (step S 2521: NO), that is, if the short release is performed, the process proceeds to step S 2540. On the other hand, if the game player is in the long open state (step S 2521: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the winning of the second ball has been detected (step S 2522). If the second winning combination has not been detected (step S 2522: NO), the process proceeds to step S 2540.

  When the winning of the second ball is detected (step S2522: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 opens the V opening / closing member 71 long and performs V effective period setting processing (step S2523). The V open / close member 71 is long open in the open pattern of the V open / close member 71 (FIG. 14B), in the case of “long open”, the long open at the winning of the second ball (here, up to 31.5 seconds) ) To execute. In this case, since one round game time is 31.5 seconds at the longest (29.5 seconds for the big winning opening maximum opening time + 2 seconds for the interval closing time), generally, the second game winning a prize The time from time to the end of the round is less than 31.5 seconds. As described later, since the V open / close member 71 is forcibly closed at the end of the round, the open time of the long open of the V open / close member 71 is shorter than 31.5 seconds. However, since the open time of the V open / close member 71 is relatively long, at least a part of the game balls after the second ball winning a prize in the first large winning opening 30 has the V area 39 It is configured to pass. In the V effective period setting process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the V open period as the V open period during the opening and closing of the V open / close member 71 and sets the V inactive period together with the closing of the V open / close member 71 at the end of the round. After the long opening of the V open / close member 71 and the V effective period setting process, the gaming control microcomputer 81 switches the second winning flag to ON (step S 2524), and proceeds to step S 2540.

  In step S 2540, the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether the V open / close member 71 is open. If the V opening / closing member 71 is open (step S 2540: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the round game has ended (step S 2550). As described above, the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the round game is over depending on whether or not a predetermined interval time (two seconds in this case) has passed since the closing of the special winning opening. Make a decision.

  When the round game is over (step S 2550: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 switches the first winning flag and the second winning flag to OFF (step S 2551), and the V open / close member closing process and the V invalid period A setting process is performed (step S2552). Here, at the end of the round game, the game control microcomputer 81 forcibly closes the V open / close member 71, and after a few seconds (1 second in this case) after the V open / close member 71 is closed, Set and finish this process.

  If the round game has not ended (step S 2550: NO), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether the closing condition of the V opening / closing member 71 is satisfied (step S 2560). The closing condition of the V open / close member 71 can be exemplified by, for example, that a predetermined period (for example, 0.1 second) has elapsed after the opening of the V open / close member 71 if the short open is open. If the closing condition is satisfied (step S2560: YES), the V open / close member closing process and the V invalid period setting process are performed (step S2552), and this process ends. When the closing condition is not satisfied (step S2560: NO), the processing is ended while the V opening / closing member 71 is in the open state and the V effective period is continued.

  In step S2540, when it is determined that the V opening / closing member 71 is closing (NO in step S2540), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not the round game is over (step S2571). If the round has ended (step S2571: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 switches the first winning flag and the second winning flag to OFF (step S2572), and ends this processing. If the round has not ended (step S2571: NO), this process ends.

[Playing state setting process]
FIG. 32 is a flowchart of the gaming state setting process (FIG. 30: step S2234). The gaming control microcomputer 81 first determines whether the V flag is ON (step S2301). If the V flag is OFF (step S2301: NO), the time saving flag is turned ON (step S2302), and "100" is set in the time saving counter (step S2303). As a result, the gaming state after the present jackpot game becomes the "non-high probability state", the "time saving state" and the "high base state" (that is, the low probability high base). This low-probability high-base state ends when either of the variable display of the special symbol is performed 100 times or the next jackpot is won, or the condition is met.

  On the other hand, if the V flag is ON at step S2301 (step S2301: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 turns on the probability change flag (step S2304) and sets "160" to the probability change counter (step S2305), The V flag is turned off (step S2306). Also, the gaming control microcomputer 81 turns on the time saving flag (step S2307), and sets "160" in the time saving counter (step S2308). As a result, the gaming state after the present jackpot game becomes "high probability state" and "time saving state" and "high base state" (that is, high probability high base). This high-probability-high-base state ends when either of the variable display of special symbols is performed 160 times or the next jackpot is won, or any of the conditions is met.

  In step S2309, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets a gaming state designating command in the command set area (output buffer) 84a of the main RAM 84, and completes this processing. The gaming state designation command includes information on the gaming state which has just been set.

[V-area sensor detection process]
FIG. 33 is a flowchart of the V area sensor detection process (FIG. 16: step S106). First, the game control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not there is a detection of a game ball by the V area sensor 39a (step S2601). If there is no detection of the game ball by the V area sensor 39a (step S2601: NO), this processing ends. On the other hand, if there is detection (step S2601: YES), the gaming control microcomputer 81 determines whether or not it is during the V-valid period (step S2602). The V effective period is a period set by the V effective period setting process (steps S2504 and S2523) of the V open / close member operation process (FIG. 31). The V validity period is set to the second round, the fourth round, the sixth round, the eighth round, the tenth round, and the opening and closing seconds of the V opening / closing member 71 during the twelfth round (ball brushing period) Be done. If the V effective period is not in progress (step S2602: NO), this process ends. On the other hand, if it is during the V effective period (step S2602: YES), the game control microcomputer 81 turns on the V flag (step S2603), sets the V pass command (step S2604), and ends this processing. .

[Holding ball processing]
FIG. 34 is a flowchart of the holding ball number process (FIG. 16: step S107). The gaming control microcomputer 81 first reads out the special figure 1 holding ball number, the special figure 2 holding ball number, and the normal symbol holding ball number stored in the main RAM 84 (step S 2701). Next, the gaming control microcomputer 81 sets the hold ball number command in the command set area (output buffer) 84a of the main RAM 84 (step S2702). The ball holding ball number command is a command for notifying the sub control board 90 of the ball holding number, and includes information about the special figure 1 holding ball number, the special figure 2 holding ball number, and the normal symbol holding ball number . After setting of the holding ball number command, the gaming control microcomputer 81 ends the present process.

7. Operation of Effect Control Microcomputer 91 The operation of the effect control microcomputer 91 provided on the sub control substrate 90 (FIG. 4) will be described on the basis of FIGS. A counter, a flag, a status, a buffer and the like appearing in the operation description of the effect control microcomputer 91 are provided in the sub RAM 94.

[Sub control main process]
FIG. 35 is a flowchart showing the sub control main process. When the game machine 1 is powered on, the effect control microcomputer 91 reads a program for executing the sub control main process from the sub ROM 93. In the sub control main process, the effect control microcomputer 91 first performs a CPU initialization process (step S4000). In the CPU initialization process, for example, setting of the sub CPU 92, resetting of various flags, status, counters and the like are performed. The initial value of the flag is "0" or "OFF", the initial value of the status is "1", and the initial value of the counter is "0". The CPU initialization process is executed only once after the power is turned on, and is not executed thereafter.

  After the CPU initialization process, the effect control microcomputer 91 prohibits the interruption of the interrupt process (step S4015) and performs the random number update process (step S4020). In this random number updating process, the effect control microcomputer 91 adds 1 to the random number counter value shown in FIG. Each random number counter value is returned to "0" and added again when the set upper limit value is reached. The initial value of each random number counter may be a value other than “0”, or may be randomly changed. In addition to adding one by one, two or more random numbers may be added. Each random number may be a so-called hardware random number.

  After the random number update process, the effect control microcomputer 91 permits the interrupt of the interrupt process (step S4025). While the interrupt is permitted, execution of the sub timer interrupt processing (step S4035) is possible. The sub timer interrupt process is executed based on an interrupt pulse repeatedly input to the sub CPU 92 at a predetermined cycle. That is, the sub timer interrupt process is executed at predetermined intervals. Then, after the sub timer interrupt processing ends, the random number updating process is repeatedly executed until the sub timer interrupt processing is started next.

[Sub side timer interrupt processing]
FIG. 36 is a flowchart of the sub timer interrupt process (FIG. 35: step S4035). First, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs a received command analysis process (step S4300). Details of the received command analysis process will be described later. After the received command analysis process, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs a process during variation effect (step S4305). The processing during fluctuation presentation is processing for setting a command before the end of fluctuation at a specific timing during fluctuation presentation and causing the display screen 7a to execute a particular display presentation, and the details will be described later. After the fluctuation effect processing, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs switch processing (step S4310). In the switch process, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets the display content of the display screen 7a based on the switch data (edge data and level data) output based on the detection signal from the effect button detection switch 63a. . After the switch processing, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs command transmission processing (step S4315). In the command transmission process, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs various commands set in the effect command set area 94b (output buffer) of the sub RAM 94 by the reception command analysis process etc. as the image control board 100, the voice control board 106, and the lamp control board 107. , Transmit to the relay board 108. The image control board 100 that has received various commands executes display effects corresponding to the received commands using the image display device 7. In addition, the voice control board 106 that has received various commands executes a voice effect that outputs voice from the speaker 67 according to the received command. The lamp control board 107 that has received various commands executes lamp effects for controlling the light emission of the panel lamp 5 and the frame lamp 66 according to the received commands. After the command transmission process, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs other processes (step S4320), and ends the process. In the other processes, for example, a random number update process or the like is performed.

[Receive command analysis process]
FIG. 37 is a flowchart of the received command analysis process (FIG. 36: step S4300). First, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether a predetermination command has been received from the main control board 80 (step S4415). If it is received (step S4415: YES), pre-reading effect determination processing is performed (step S4420). The “pre-reading effect determination process” is a process of determining whether or not pre-reading effect is to be performed, and a pre-reading effect pattern in the case of performing the pre-reading effect. Details of the pre-reading effect determination processing will be described later. On the other hand, when not having received (step S4415: NO), the above-mentioned pre-reading effect determination processing is skipped. The preread effect is an effect that indicates that there is a high possibility that a jackpot is included in the hold information newly stored in the special view hold storage area 85, and is executed during the change effect.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not the ball holding ball number command has been received from the main control board 80 (step S4445). If it is received (step S4445: YES), a suspension display process is performed (step S4450). In the suspension display process, provided in the counter set area 94d of the sub RAM 94 based on the information about the special figure 1 reserve ball number, the special figure 2 reserve ball number, and the normal symbol reserve ball number included in the reserve ball number command The values of the first special view hold effect counter, the second special view hold effect counter, and the common drawing hold effect counter are updated. As a result, not only the main control board 80 side but also the sub control board 90 side can hold the information of the number of holding balls. Further, the effect control microcomputer 91 is configured to hold image 9A displayed on the display screen 7a based on the values of the first special view hold effect counter, the second special view hold effect counter, and the general drawing hold effect counter, Update 9B. On the other hand, when the holding ball number command has not been received (step S4445: NO), the above-mentioned holding display process is skipped.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not the change start command has been received from the main control board 80 (step S4455). If it is received (step S4455: YES), the fluctuation effect start process is performed (step S4460). The "variation effect start process" is a process of selecting a variation effect pattern (content) to be executed during special symbol variation. Details of the change production start process will be described later. On the other hand, when not received (step S4455: NO), the above-mentioned change production start process is skipped.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not the change stop command has been received from the main control board 80 (step S4465). If it is received (step S4465: YES), the fluctuation effect end process is performed (step S4470). "Variation production end processing" is processing for stopping the fluctuation production performed during special symbol variation. In the fluctuation effect end process, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets a counter and the like based on the analysis result of the fluctuation stop command, and sets a fluctuation effect end command for ending the fluctuation effect. As a result, the decorative symbol corresponding to the special figure 1 or the special figure 2 during the change is stopped and displayed. Further, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs an advance determination information shift process (FIG. 39) described later. If the fluctuation stop command has not been received (step S4465: NO), the above-mentioned fluctuation effect ending process is skipped.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether an opening command has been received from the main control board 80 (step S4475). If it is received (step S4475: YES), an opening effect pattern determination process is performed (step S4480). The “opening effect pattern determination process” is a process of selecting an opening effect pattern (content) to be executed at the start of the special game (big hit game). In the opening effect pattern determination process, the effect control microcomputer 91 first analyzes the opening command, and sets in the sub RAM 94 information related to the special figure stop symbol data set at the big hit winning determination included in the opening command. Then, an effect pattern of the opening effect set in advance corresponding to the hit type indicated by the special view stop symbol data is selected, and an opening effect start command for starting the selected opening effect is displayed in the effect command set area of the sub RAM 94 Set to 94b. When the opening effect start command set in the effect command set area 94 b is transmitted to the image control board 100 in the command transmission process (FIG. 36: step S 4315), the CPU 102 of the image control board 100 ROMs a predetermined opening effect image. , And displayed on the display screen 7 a of the image display device 7. When the opening command is not received in step S4475 (step S4475: NO), the above-mentioned opening effect pattern determination process is skipped.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not a round designation command has been received from the main control board 80 (step S4485). If it is received (step S4485: YES), round effect pattern determination processing is performed (step S4490). The “round effect pattern determination process” is a process for selecting an open game effect pattern (content) to be executed during the opening of the special winning opening or in the interval between open in the special game (big hit game). In the round effect pattern determination process, the effect control microcomputer 91 first analyzes the round designating command, and sets information relating to the special figure stop symbol data included in the round designating command and information relating to the number of rounds in the sub RAM 94 Do. Then, a special effect pattern of the round effect set in advance corresponding to the hit type and the number of rounds indicated by the special figure stop symbol data is selected, and a round effect start command for starting the selected round effect is produced by the sub RAM 94 It is set in the command set area 94b. When the round effect start command set in the effect command set area 94b is transmitted to the image control board 100, the CPU 102 reads a predetermined round effect image from the ROM 103 and causes the display screen 7a to display the same. When the round designation command is not received in step S4485 (step S4485: NO), the above-described round effect pattern determination process is skipped.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether an ending command has been received from the main control board 80 (step S4495). If it is received (step S4495: YES), ending effect pattern determination processing is performed (step S4500). The “ending effect pattern determination process” is a process of selecting an ending effect pattern (content) to be executed during the ending of the special game (big hit game or small hit game). In the ending effect pattern determination process, the effect control microcomputer 91 first analyzes the ending command, and sets information on special figure stop symbol data included in the ending command in the sub RAM 94. Then, an ending effect pattern corresponding to the type of hit indicated by the special view stop symbol data is selected, and an ending effect start command for starting the selected ending effect is set in the output buffer of the sub RAM 94. When the ending effect start command set in the effect command set area 94b is transmitted to the image control board 100, the CPU 102 reads a predetermined ending effect image from the ROM 103 and causes the display screen 7a to display the same. If the ending command has not been received (step S4495: NO), the above-mentioned ending effect pattern determination process is skipped.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs other processing (step S4545). In other processes, for example, when the effect control microcomputer 91 receives a game state designating command, information relating to the game state included in the game state designating command (high probability state or not, time change state or not, definite variation The sub RAM 94 holds the counter, the value of the time reduction counter, and the like. Further, when the V control command is received, the effect control microcomputer 91 causes the sub RAM 94 to hold the V-passed information. Further, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs processing based on commands other than the above (wait for customer wait command, RAM clear notification command, etc.), and ends this processing.

[Pre-reading effect determination processing]
FIG. 38 is a flowchart of pre-reading effect determination processing (FIG. 37: step S4420). First, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs predetermination information rewriting processing (step S4601). Specifically, the effect control microcomputer 91 is included in the advance determination command received from the main control board 80, the jackpot advance determination result (jackpot determination information), the jackpot type advance determination result (jackpot type information), and the fluctuation The pattern predetermination result (variation pattern information) is stored in the predetermination information storage area 94c.

  FIG. 39 is a diagram for describing the configuration of the prior determination information storage area 94c. In addition to the above-described jackpot determination information, jackpot type information, and variation pattern information, the advance determination information storage area 94c stores prefetch presentation effect pattern information. Pre-reading effect pattern information is information which shows the contents of pre-reading effect which is executed during fluctuation production, is selected in step S4604 which it mentions later. FIG. 39 (A) shows the jackpot determination information "losing" and fluctuation pattern information "P72" and "P73" as the first to third special determination results respectively corresponding to the first to third special drawing 2 reservations. It is stored in the storage area, and a state in which the prior determination result corresponding to the change is stored in the area is shown. In FIG. 39 (B), there is a prize in the special figure 2 from the state of FIG. 39 (A), and the preliminary determination information included in the preliminary determination command received from the main control board 80 is the fourth in the special figure 2 reserve. The state stored in the corresponding fourth storage area is shown. Here, as the prior determination information, the big hit determination information “big hit”, the big hit type information “21H”, and the fluctuation pattern information “P61” are stored. In addition, together with the first to fourth storage areas corresponding to the first to fourth special drawing 2 suspension and the corresponding areas corresponding to the fluctuation, “pattern A” as the preread effect pattern information "Is set. FIG. 39C shows a state in which the predetermination information shift process is performed after the change ends from the state of FIG. 39B. Specifically, the prior determination information stored in the first storage area is shifted to the area, and the prior determination information stored in the second to fourth storage areas is shifted to the first to third storage areas, 4 The prior determination information of the storage area is cleared. The prior determination information shift process is executed in the fluctuation effect end process (FIG. 37: step S4470).

  Returning to FIG. 38, subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not pre-reading effect pattern information is stored in the prior determination information storage area 94c (step S4602). Specifically, the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not the pre-reading effect pattern information is stored in any of the area of the prior determination information storage area 94 c and the first to fourth storage areas. If pre-reading effect pattern information is stored (step S4602: YES), this processing ends. That is, when the pre-reading effect pattern information is stored in any of the area of the prior determination information storage area 94c and the first to fourth storage areas, pre-reading effect pattern information is not newly selected and stored. On the other hand, when the pre-reading effect pattern information is not stored in the pre-judgment information storage area 94c (step S4602: NO), the effect control microcomputer 91 determines that the pre-judgment result included in the received pre-judgment command is “big hit”. Alternatively, it is determined whether or not "reach with loss" (step S4603). Whether the "big hit" or the "reach with loss" can be determined, for example, by the change pattern prior determination result (change pattern information). If the pre-determination result included in the received pre-determination command is “loss without reach” (step S4603: NO), the effect control microcomputer 91 ends the present process. This is because there is no need to perform pre-reading effects. On the other hand, when the preliminary determination result included in the received preliminary determination command is "big hit" or "reach with loss" (step S4603: YES), pre-reading effect execution determination to determine whether to perform pre-reading effect, And, pre-reading effect pattern selection is done (step S4604). Specifically, the effect control microcomputer 91 acquires the value of the counter of the prefetch effect random number, and refers to the acquired random value and the prefetch effect pattern determination table T51 stored in the sub ROM 93 to perform the prefetch effect Whether or not to perform, and a pre-reading effect pattern when performing pre-reading effect is decided.

  FIG. 40 is a diagram for explaining the pre-reading effect pattern determination table T51. In FIG. 40, when the preliminary determination result is "big hit" and the pre-reading effect random number value is "0 to 55", the pre-reading effect is "none", and the pre-reading effect random number value is "56 to 67" as a pre-reading effect When “pattern A” is selected and the pre-reading effect random number value is “68 to 127”, “pattern B” is selected as pre-reading effect. In addition, when the pre-determination result is “reach with loss” and the pre-reading effect random number value is “0 to 107”, the pre-reading effect is “absent”, and the pre-reading effect random number value is “108 to 114” as the pre-reading effect When “pattern A” is selected and the pre-reading effect random number value is “115 to 127”, “pattern B” is selected as pre-reading effect. The type and content of the pre-reading effect pattern, and the range of the random value to be selected can be set arbitrarily.

  Returning to FIG. 38, when it is determined in step S4604 that the pre-reading effect is to be executed (step S4605: YES), the selected pre-reading effect pattern is stored in the pre-determination information storage area 94c (step S4606). Here, when the pre-reading effect pattern is stored in the prior determination information storage area 94c, among the first to fourth storage areas, not only the storage area corresponding to the received prior determination command but also the storage before the corresponding storage area. The preread effect pattern is also stored in the area and the area. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 39 (B), not only “pattern A” is set in the fourth storage area corresponding to the received prior determination command, but also the first to third storage areas, and the area concerned Also set "pattern A". Thus, the prefetching effect pattern A is executed also in the fluctuation effect (variation effect corresponding to the area and the first to third storage areas) executed before the fluctuation effect corresponding to the fourth storage area is executed. . In addition, it is based on the progress condition of the said fluctuation production whether the prefetch effect is performed by the fluctuation production corresponding to the said area | region. That is, if the timing to execute the pre-reading effect has already passed in the variation effect, the pre-reading effect is not executed, but if it is before the timing to execute the pre-reading effect, it is executed at that timing. This will be described later. If it is determined in step S4604 that the pre-reading effect is not performed (step S4605: NO), the process ends.

[Change production start process]
FIG. 41 is a flowchart of the fluctuation effect start process (FIG. 37: step S4460). The effect control microcomputer 91 first analyzes the fluctuation start command (step S5000). Here, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets information on the special view stop symbol data included in the change start command and information on the change pattern in the sub RAM 94. The set information includes gaming state information indicating the current gaming state, symbol information indicating a symbol as a determination result of the hit determination processing of the special view 1 or the special view 2, and the like. The game state information and the symbol information acquired here can be referred to by the effect control microcomputer 91 as appropriate.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs key effect pattern determination processing (step S5010). The basic effect pattern determination process is based on the basic configuration of the change effect (for example, the display and switching of the background image on the image display device 7, the display and operation of a predetermined character, and the output of melody and sound effect using the speaker 67 , And lighting control of lamps, etc.). The fluctuation effect is completed by superimposing additional effects such as chance-up effect and pre-reading effect on this basic effect. The effect control microcomputer 91 determines the main effect pattern with reference to the main effect pattern determination table T52 stored in the sub ROM 93.

  FIG. 42 is a diagram for explaining a base effect pattern determination table T52. In FIG. 42, a plurality of types of backbone rendering patterns for performing normal reach rendering, a plurality of types of backbone rendering patterns for performing SP1 rendering, a plurality of types of backbone rendering patterns for performing SP2 rendering, and a plurality of types of backbone rendering patterns for performing SP3 rendering A plurality of basic effect patterns are set to perform a no reach non-stop effect. The type of the core rendering pattern can be set arbitrarily. Here, for example, when the fluctuation pattern included in the fluctuation start command is “P1”, a key effect pattern for performing the SP1 effect is selected. In addition, when the fluctuation pattern included in the fluctuation start command is “P72”, a base effect pattern for performing a no reach loss effect is selected.

  Returning to FIG. 41, after determining the main effect pattern, the effect control microcomputer 91 performs a chance-up effect pattern determination process (step S5015). The chance-up effect pattern determination process is a process for determining an additional effect to be superimposed on the fluctuation effect. The effect control microcomputer 91 acquires the value of the chance-up random number counter, and determines the chance-up effect pattern with reference to the acquired random value and the chance-up effect pattern determination table T53 stored in the sub ROM 93.

  FIG. 43 is a diagram for explaining the chance-up effect pattern determination table T53. Here, only a portion of the chance-up effect pattern determination table T53 for determining the change effect pattern of the special view 1 in the non-time-short state is shown. That is, FIG. 43 shows a chance-up effect pattern that is executed when the fluctuation pattern included in the fluctuation start command is “P1” to “P16”. In addition, the chance-up effect pattern determination table T53 is a portion that determines the chance-up effect pattern to be executed when the variation pattern is “P21” to “P33” “P41” to “P56” “61” to “73”. It may or may not be provided.

  In FIG. 43, as the chance-up effect pattern, “2-NO”, “2-SP1”, “2-SP2”, “2-SP3”, “3-NO”, “3-SP1”, “3-SP2”, “3-SP3” “4-NO”, “4-SP1”, “4-SP2”, “4-SP3” and “ANO” are set. These chance presentation patterns correspond to the various chance-up presentation described later.

  Returning to FIG. 41, after determining the chance-up effect pattern, the effect control microcomputer 91 further refers to the random number value and the stop symbol pattern determination table T54, and combines the effect symbols 8L, 8C, 8R etc. You may decide By these, it is determined what kind of effect to be performed as the fluctuation effect.

  The effect control microcomputer 91 sets a change effect start command in the effect command set area 94b (output buffer) of the sub RAM 94 so that a change effect based on the change effect pattern determined in the above steps S5010 to S5015 is realized Step S5020). When the fluctuation effect start command set in the effect command set area 94b of the sub RAM 94 is transmitted to the image control board 100 in the command transmission process (FIG. 36: step S4315), the CPU 102 of the image control board 100 changes the fluctuation effect image. It is read from the ROM 103 and displayed on the display screen 7 a of the image display device 7.

  Subsequently, the effect control microcomputer 91 sets a variation effect timer (step S5030), and ends the present process. A fluctuation time (FIG. 42) corresponding to the fluctuation pattern fluctuation pattern included in the fluctuation start command is set in the fluctuation production timer. For example, when the fluctuation pattern is "P1", "40 seconds" is set to the fluctuation effect timer.

[Processing during variation production]
FIG. 44 is a flowchart of the process (FIG. 36: step S 4305) in the time of the variable effect production. The effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether or not a change effect is being performed (step S4701). Whether or not the variation effect is being performed can be determined, for example, based on whether or not the variation effect timer is zero. If the variable performance is not in progress (step SS4701: NO), this processing ends. On the other hand, when the variable effect is being performed (step SS4701: YES), the effect control microcomputer 91 determines whether it is the timing to set the command before the end of the change in the effect command set area 94b of the sub RAM 94 (step S4702). The pre-variation end command is a command to notify the image control board 100 or the like that the effect control microcomputer 91 has a specific timing during the variable stage effect, and the image control board 100 receives the pre-variation end command. Switching of the effect contents, display of a specific image, and the like are performed according to the information included in the command before the end of fluctuation.

  If it is not the timing to set the command before the end of change (step S4702: NO), this processing ends. On the other hand, if it is time to set a command before the end of fluctuation (step S4702: YES), it is judged whether or not there is prefetch presentation effect pattern information in the area of the prior judgment information storage area 94c (step S4703). If there is pre-reading effect pattern information in the area (step S4703: YES), a pre-variation end command including pre-reading effect pattern information is set in the effect command set area 94b of the sub RAM 94 (step S4704). On the other hand, if there is no pre-reading effect pattern information in the area (step S4703: NO), a pre-variation end command not including pre-reading effect pattern information is set in the sub command generation area 94b of the sub RAM 94 (step S4705). Thereby, when there is pre-reading effect pattern information in the area, a pre-change end command including pre-reading effect pattern information is transmitted to the image control board 100 two seconds before the end of the changing effect. Then, the image control microcomputer 101 causes the display screen 7 a of the image display device 7 to start the pre-reading effect for displaying the pre-reading effect image. On the other hand, even when there is no pre-reading effect pattern information in the area, a command before the end of change is transmitted to the image control board 100 two seconds before the end of the change. Here, when the preview image is already displayed on the display screen 7 a of the image display device 7, the image control microcomputer 101 starts a preview fade effect in which the preview image is faded.

8. Operation of Image Control Microcomputer 101 The operation of the image control microcomputer 101 provided on the image control board 100 (FIG. 4) will be described based on FIG. A buffer or the like appearing in the description of the operation of the image control microcomputer 101 is provided in the RAM 104. FIG. 45 is a flowchart of the display control process. When the power of the gaming machine 1 is turned on, the image control microcomputer 101 reads a program from the ROM 103, and after CPU initialization processing, display control processing is repeatedly executed. In the display control process, first, the image control microcomputer 101 determines whether or not a fluctuation presentation start command has been received from the sub control board 90 (step S5001). If it is received (step S5001: YES), the image control microcomputer 101 starts the fluctuation effect display (step S5002). Specifically, the image control microcomputer 101 analyzes the received change effect start command, reads a predetermined change effect image instructed in the change effect start command from the ROM 103, and displays it on the display screen 7a of the image display device Display. On the other hand, when not having received (step S5001: NO), the above-mentioned processing is skipped.

  Subsequently, the image control microcomputer 101 determines whether or not a command before the end of fluctuation is received from the sub control substrate 90 (step S5003). If it is received (step 5003: YES), the image control microcomputer 101 starts the pre-reading effect display (step S5004). Specifically, the image control microcomputer 101 analyzes a command before the end of change, and when the command before the end of change includes pre-reading effect pattern information, reads out a predetermined pre-reading effect image from the ROM 103, and displays the image display device 7 is displayed on the display screen 7a. In addition, even if the pre-reading effect pattern information is not included in the command before the end of the fluctuation, if the preliminary image is displayed on the display screen 7 a of the image display device 7, the preliminary fading effect is to fade the preliminary image. Do. On the other hand, when not having received (step S5003: NO), the above-mentioned processing is skipped.

  Subsequently, the image control microcomputer 101 determines whether or not a fluctuation rendering end command has been received from the sub control board 90 (step S5005). If it is received (step 5005: YES), the image control microcomputer 101 reads out from the ROM 103 the image on which the change effect is displayed in a stopped state, and displays the changed effect stop display on the display screen 7a of the image display device 7. (Step S5006). On the other hand, if not received (step S5005: NO), the above process is skipped.

  Subsequently, the image control microcomputer 101 performs other processing (step S4545). In the other processes, for example, when the image control microcomputer 101 receives the opening effect start command, it reads out from the ROM 103 a predetermined opening effect image instructed in the opening effect start command, and displays the display screen of the image display device 7 Display on 7a. Further, when the round effect start command is received, the predetermined round effect image instructed in the round effect start command is read from the ROM 103 and displayed on the display screen 7a. Also, when the ending effect start command is received, the predetermined ending effect image instructed in the ending effect start command is read out from the ROM 103, displayed on the display screen 7a, and the present process is ended.

9. Operation of Movable Part (Panel Movable Body 15) FIG. 46 is a diagram for describing the operation of the movable part (panel movable body 15).
The effect control microcomputer 91 movably controls the board movable body 15 in the game effect (display effect), the initial operation at the time of power on, and the like. The movable plate 15 is at the home position in the position shown in FIG. On the other hand, the movable plate 15 is in the unfolded position in the position shown in FIG. The effect control microcomputer 91 can movably control the board movable body 15 from the home position to the unfolded position. The movable board 15 is basically at the home position, and is controlled movably to the unfolded position by the effect control microcomputer 91 according to the display effect (game effect). The movable board 15 is disposed on the display screen 7a of the image display device 7 (in front of the display screen 7a) when movably controlled to the unfolded position, in other words, viewed from the player, the display screen 7a It is arranged at the position which overlaps with the predetermined field of. Therefore, in this case, the board movable body 15 is in a state of blocking the predetermined area of the display screen 7a as viewed from the player. Further, the movable board 15 is provided with a star-shaped hole 15a at the center. Therefore, when the board movable body 15 is in the unfolded position, a part of the area of the display screen 7a can be seen from the hole 15a. In addition, when the movable plate 15 is at the home position, the movable plate 15 does not overlap the display screen 7a.

  The revival effect will be described below with reference to FIGS. 59 to 61. This resurrection production may be performed, for example, during reach production (super reach production), etc., during the change production of the decorative symbol.

First, before explaining the resurrection effect, an example of the lost effect and the jackpot effect will be described with reference to FIG.
[No stage effect]
FIG. 59 is a diagram for explaining the missing effect and the big hit effect.
In the loss effect, first, reach effect is executed as shown in FIG. 59 (A). The reach effect is an effect performed during the reach state in which the decorative symbols 8L and 8R have the same symbol. Reach production includes normal reach production with relatively low jackpot expectation and super reach production with relatively high jackpot expectation. Super reach production is a production that may be developed and executed from normal reach production. In addition, in this reach production, it is a reach state with "6" symbol.

If you hit the jackpot using three "6" symbols (ie, jackpot symbol array "666"), the gaming state after the jackpot game may be a definite change state, or it may be a non-determination state . Therefore, in the case of the jackpot symbol array "666", the player can not judge from this symbol array whether the gaming state after the jackpot game will be the definite change state or the non-positive change state. Such decorative symbols are also referred to as probability variation uncertain symbols. In this embodiment, the even variation symbol corresponds to the probability variation uncertain symbol. Not limited to this, for example, symbols other than "3" and "7" symbols may be used as probability variation uncertain symbols.
In addition, when the jackpot using three “7” symbols (ie, the jackpot symbol array “777”), it is determined that the gaming state after the jackpot game will be a definite change state. Therefore, in the case of the jackpot symbol array "777", the player can determine from this symbol array that the gaming state after the jackpot game will be a probability change state. Such a decorative pattern is also called a definite variation definite pattern. In the present embodiment, the odd variation symbols correspond to the definite variation confirmed symbols. The present invention is not limited to this, and for example, only the "3" and "7" symbols may be considered as definite variation determined symbols.

  In addition, this reach production includes reach production with relatively high jackpot expectation degree and reach production with relatively low jackpot expectation degree. In the loss production, the appearance ratio is higher in the reach production with a relatively large jackpot expectation degree than the reach production with a relatively high jackpot expectation degree.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 59 (B), a cut-in effect as a chance-up effect is performed. In this cut-in effect, a cut-in image H1A is displayed. The cut-in image H1A is a chance-up image indicating that the jackpot expectation is relatively low, and represents the character “CHANNEL!”. In addition, the cut-in effect in the loss effect is not limited to the effect shown in FIG. 59 (B), but as shown in FIG. 59 (E) described later, a cut-in effect with a relatively high hit probability with a cut-in image H1B. (Chance up presentation) may be executed. In this case, in the loss effect, the appearance rate of the cut-in effect with a relatively large hitting expectation using the cut-in image H1A is higher than the cut-in effect with a relatively high hitting probability using the cut-in image H1B. Is high.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 59 (C), a loss notification effect is executed. In this loss notification effect, a lost symbol arrangement using the decorative symbols 8L, 8C, 8R is shown. In FIG. 59 (C), in the lost symbol array, the left decorative symbol 8L and the right decorative symbol 8R are the same symbol (6 symbols), and the middle decorative symbol 8C is a different symbol (7 symbols).

[Hit hit production]
In the jackpot effect, first, as shown in FIG. 59 (D), reach effect is executed as in FIG. 59 (A). In addition, this reach production includes reach production with relatively high jackpot expectation degree and reach production with relatively low jackpot expectation degree. In the jackpot production, the appearance ratio is higher in the reach production with a relatively high jackpot expectation degree than the reach production with a relatively large jackpot expectation degree.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 59E, a cut-in effect as a chance-up effect is performed. In this cut-in effect, a cut-in image H1B is displayed. The cut-in image H1B is a chance-up image indicating that the jackpot expectation is relatively high, and represents the text "It's hot!" In addition, the cut-in effect in the jackpot effect is not limited to the effect shown in FIG. 59 (E), but as shown in FIG. 59 (B), the cut-in effect with a relatively low probability of big hit using the cut-in image H1A (chance Up presentation) may be performed. In this case, in the jackpot effect, the appearance rate of the cut-in effect with a relatively high jackpot expectation degree using the cut-in image H1B is higher than the cut-in effect with a relatively low jackpot expectation degree using the cut-in image H1A Is high.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 59 (F), a jackpot notification effect is executed. In this jackpot notification effect, a jackpot symbol arrangement using the decoration symbols 8L, 8C, 8R is shown. In FIG. 59 (F), the jackpot symbol arrangement is a square that the decorative symbols 8L, 8C, 8R become the same symbol (six symbols). That is, the jackpot symbol arrangement in this case is formed by a probability variation uncertain symbol.

[Resurrection production A]
FIG. 60 is a diagram for explaining the resurrection effect A.
In the resurrection effect A, first, as shown in FIG. 60 (A), reach effect is executed as in FIG. 59 (A). In addition, this reach production includes reach production with relatively high jackpot expectation degree and reach production with relatively low jackpot expectation degree. In the resurrection production A, the appearance rate is higher in the reach production with a relatively high jackpot expectation degree than the reach production with a relatively high jackpot expectation degree.

Next, as shown in FIG. 60 (B), similarly to FIG. 59 (E), a cut-in effect (chance-up effect) having a relatively high degree of jackpot expectation using the cut-in image H1B is executed. The cut-in effect in the resurrection effect A is not limited to this, and as shown in FIG. 59 (B), a cut-in effect (chance-up effect) with a relatively low probability of big hit using the cut-in image H1A is executed. May be In this case, in the resurrection effect A, the cut-in effect with a relatively high hit probability expectation using the cut-in image H1B appears rather than the cut-in effect with a relatively low hit probability using the cut-in image H1A The rate is high.
Next, as shown in FIG. 60 (C), as in FIG. 59 (C), a loss notification effect is executed.

Next, as shown in FIG. 60 (D), an accessory movable effect is executed. This feature movability effect is an effect in which the movable panel 15 is movably controlled to the unfolded position and disposed on the display screen 7a (a position to hide a part of the display screen 7a). By this feature movable effect, it can be suggested to the player that the variable effect is not yet finished.
Next, as shown in FIG. 60E, a jackpot notification effect using a definite variation confirmed symbol is executed.

[Resurrection production B]
FIG. 61 is a diagram for explaining the resurrection effect B.
In the resurrection effect B, the reach effect of FIG. 61 (A), the cut-in effect of FIG. 61 (B) and the loss notification effect of FIG. 61 (C) are the reach effect of FIG. 60 (A) and FIG. 60 (B) Since it is the same as the cut-in effect of FIG. 60 (C) and the loss notification effect of FIG.

  In addition, this reach production includes reach production with relatively high jackpot expectation degree and reach production with relatively low jackpot expectation degree. In the resurrection production B, the appearance ratio is higher in the reach production having a relatively high jackpot expectation degree than the reach production having a relatively high jackpot expectation degree. In addition, the cut-in effect in the resurrection effect B is not limited to the effect shown in FIG. 61 (B), but as shown in FIG. 59 (B), the cut-in effect with a relatively low probability of big hit using the cut-in image H1A ( A chance up effect may be executed. In this case, in the resurrection effect B, a cut-in effect having a relatively high jackpot expectation rate using the cut-in image H1B appears as a cut-in effect using the cut-in image H1A, rather than a cut-in effect having a relatively low expectation level The rate is high.

Next, as shown in FIG. 61D, a button depression prompting display effect is executed. In this button pressing promotion display effect, a button image H1C is displayed. The button image H1C is an image for prompting the player to operate the effect button 63. In other words, the button image H1C is an image indicating that the effect button 63 is in an effective operation period. Specifically, the button image H1C is an image that is represented as "PUSH" in the image, and represents a state as if it was lit. In addition, in order to urge the player to operate the effect button 63 adjacent to the button image H1C, the characters “press !!” are also displayed.
Next, as shown in FIG. 61 (E), as in FIG. 60 (E), a jackpot notification effect using a definite variation confirmed symbol is executed.

The timer image C3D is displayed in a countdown mode in which the timer value counts down, and is arranged in the button image C3A. In the timer image C3D shown in FIG. 105 (B), "30 seconds" is shown as the timer initial value.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 105C, the second button display effect is executed. In the second button display effect, a button image C3C and a timer image C3D are displayed. The timer image C3D shows a timer value “0 seconds” in the button image C3C. The button image C3C is displayed after the timer value of the timer image C3D reaches "0 seconds". The present invention is not limited to this, and may be displayed after the timer value reaches a predetermined value (for example, the timer value is 1 second) before it becomes "0 second". The effective operation period of the effect button 63 may be, for example, 3 seconds. In this case, the button image C3C returns to the state of the button image C3A when the valid operation period has passed.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 105D, in response to the player pressing the effect button 63, the re-timer display effect is executed. In this re-timer display effect, the timer display is performed again, that is, the timer image C3D and the button image C3A are displayed. In this case, as in FIG. 105 (B), the timer image C3D is disposed in the button image C3A. In the timer image C3D shown in FIG. 105 (D), “50 seconds”, which is longer than the case of FIG. 105 (B), is shown as the timer initial value. This can suggest that the re-timer display effect has a high jackpot expectation.

  In the timer display effect in the timer button effects A and B, a plurality of patterns of timer initial values of the timer images C3B and C3D are prepared. For example, as the timer initial values of the timer images C3B and C3D, the first pattern is set to 50 seconds and 30 seconds respectively as shown in FIGS. 104 and 105, and the second pattern is based on the first pattern. It is set to long 70 seconds and 50 seconds respectively. In this case, the jackpot expectation is higher in the case where the second pattern is set than in the case where the first pattern is set as the timer initial value of the timer images C3B and C3D. When displaying in the first pattern or displaying in the second pattern as the timer initial value of the timer images C3B and C3D, it functions as a chance-up effect (chance-up display).
