JP, 2017-093498, A

  An object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine capable of improving the taste of a game by using a general winning opening.

  The gaming machine according to the present invention made to solve the above problems is a winning opening in which the gaming ball may win in the gaming state in which the player aims to play a jackpot, and the gaming ball wins. A special winning opening where a jackpot lottery is executed in response to a jackpot, and a winning opening where the gaming ball may win in the gaming state aiming to win the jackpot, the trigger that the gaming ball wins The jackpot lottery is not executed as a general winning a prize, and the effect of notifying the probability that the lottery result executed with the game ball running on the specified prize winning opening will be a big hit or reporting the result of the yes or no And an effect control means for controlling a winning effect which is triggered by the game ball winning in the general winning opening.

  According to the gaming machine of the present invention, it is possible to improve the convenience of the game by using the general winning opening.

It is a front view of a game machine concerning this embodiment. (A) is a figure for demonstrating the outline | summary of a prize production, (b) is a figure for demonstrating the aspect of the reliability suggestion (light emission of a light emission part) by prize production. It is a figure for demonstrating a 1st example. It is a figure for demonstrating a 2nd example. It is a figure for demonstrating a 3rd example. It is a figure for demonstrating a 4th example. It is a figure for demonstrating a 5th example. It is a figure for demonstrating a 6th example. It is a figure for demonstrating a 7th example. It is a figure for demonstrating an 8th example.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of a gaming machine 1 according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. First, the entire configuration of the gaming machine 1 will be briefly described with reference to FIG.

  The gaming machine 1 comprises a gaming board 90. The game board 90 is formed of substantially square plywood, and the guide rails 903 forming a passage for guiding the game balls fired by the operation of the launch device 908 (launch handle) to the game area 902 have a substantially arc shape. It is provided as.

  In the game area 902, a display device 91, a start winning opening 904 (corresponding to a specific winning opening in the present invention), a special winning opening 906, an out opening 907 and the like are provided. The display area 911 of the display device 91 is an area that can be viewed through the opening 901 formed in the game board 90. Although the display area 911 is roughly described in some of the drawings, the shape and the like can be changed as appropriate (the shape and size of the opening 901, and the shape and size of the display device 91 itself can be changed). Shape and the like of the display area 911 can be changed).

  Further, in the game area 902, a plurality of game nails are provided as obstacles that change the flow-down mode of the game balls by collision of the game balls flowing down. The game balls flowing down the game area 902 change in various manners according to the conditions at the time of collision with the game nail.

  In such a gaming machine 1, by operating the launcher 908, the gaming ball is launched toward the gaming area 902. When a game ball flowing down the game area 902 wins a winning opening such as the start winning hole 904 or the big winning hole 906, a predetermined number of gaming balls (hereinafter, the game ball is paid out when the game ball wins). The gaming ball is called a winning ball) and is paid out by the payout device.

  Description of the components of the gaming machine 1 not related to the present invention, such as the frame of the gaming machine 1, the lower tray for storing gaming balls, and the upper tray, is omitted. About these, the thing of the structure similar to a well-known game machine is applicable.

  The jackpot lottery is executed by the acceptance determination means provided on the control board (not shown), triggered by the game ball winning to the start winning opening 904 (a plurality of such start winning openings may be provided). Specifically, a numerical value (appropriate determination information) is acquired from a random number source triggered by the game ball's winning on the start winning opening 904, and if the numerical value is the same as a predetermined jackpot value, it is a big hit If they are different, they will be lost. The detailed explanation is omitted because it is the same as a known gaming machine, but in the case of a big hit, the identification symbol 80 (symbol for notifying the result of the success or failure judgment; see FIG. 1 etc.) It is notified by becoming three sets of symbols), and when a combination other than that is displayed, it becomes a loss.

  The gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment includes a general winning opening 10 in addition to the above-described start winning opening 904 and the large winning opening 906 as a winning opening through which a winning ball is paid out when the gaming ball is won (FIG. 1 reference). In addition, the number of prize balls to be paid out triggered by having won each prize opening can be set appropriately. The general winning opening 10 is different from the starting winning opening 904 in that a big hit lottery is not executed in response to a game ball winning. That is, although it is common in that the winning balls are paid out (regardless of the winning ball “number”), the two are different in that the jackpot lottery is performed. In addition, the general winning opening 10 differs from the big winning opening 906 in that the gaming ball may be winning in a gaming state in which the player aims to play a jackpot. That is, the big winning opening 906 is opened during the big hit game that is executed after winning the big hit, and while it is a winning opening that the gaming ball may win for the first time in the open state, while the general winning opening 10 is different in that the entrance is always open, and is a winning opening where the gaming ball may win even if it is not in the jackpot game. Of course, since the entrance of the general winning opening 10 is always open, there is a possibility that the game ball will win in the general winning opening 10 even during the jackpot game.

  The gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment has a relatively low probability of winning a jackpot lottery and a relatively low probability of winning a jackpot lottery as a gaming state aiming at a jackpot. A special gaming state (high probability gaming state) is set. The normal gaming state is a gaming state in which the player plays a game so that the game ball enters the left side of the gaming area (a so-called left strike). The special game state is a game state in which a player plays a game so that a game ball enters the right side of the game area (a so-called right strike). The specification of the gaming machine regarding the transition of the gaming state may be any. The special gaming state may be continued (so-called consecutive chanting) “probable change loop machine” as long as the special gaming state continues unless the jackpot is shifted to the normal gaming state after the end of the jackpot game, and the winning lottery continues for a predetermined number of times It may be a "ST machine" in which the special gaming state continues until it is reached. Note that the various items described below refer to those in the normal gaming state (when so-called left strike) unless otherwise specified.

  The gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment is provided with one or more general winning openings 10 at a position where the gaming ball may win when the player performs a left strike, that is, in the normal gaming state. In the present embodiment, three general winning openings 10 are provided in the left play area (see FIG. 1). The gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment can execute a winning effect using the general winning opening 10.

  The general winning opening 10 is provided with a winning sensor 11 for detecting that the gaming ball has won (see FIG. 2A). A prize effect is generated when the game ball is detected by the prize sensor 11. The winning effect indicates the probability (hereinafter, also referred to as a (big hit) reliability) that the success or failure judgment result will be a big hit.

  The suggestion of the jackpot reliability degree by the winning a prize production may be anything, but it is easy for the player to notice that the game ball is generated when the general winning opening 10 is won. Is preferred. In the present embodiment, the reliability indication is made by the light emitting unit 12 (see FIG. 2A) provided in the general winning opening 10. As shown in FIG. Thus, by the general winning opening 10 itself or by being provided in proximity to the general winning opening 10 (when provided with a plurality of general winning openings 10, it is provided at a position closer than the other general winning openings 10) By making the reliability indication be made, the probability that the player notices that the reliability indication has been made with the game ball entering the general winning opening 10 is increased.

  In the present embodiment, the light emitting color of the light emitting portion 12 (in the drawing, the color is indicated by characters) indicates the reliability (see FIG. 2A). The light emitting portion 12 can emit light with emission colors of blue, yellow, green, red, and rainbow colors (rainbow), and the reliability becomes high in this order (white is the lowest and rainbow colors are the highest). The rainbow color is determined to be a big hit in the target judgment result (see FIG. 2 (b)).

  The success or failure judgment result to be the target of the prize effect, that is, the success or failure judgment result to be the target of the reliability indication (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a target success or failure judgment result) It corresponds to the success / failure judgment result of the so-called “the fluctuation” in which (the effect until the fluctuation of the recognition symbol 80 is stopped is referred to as a combination showing the judgment result of the judgment from the start of the fluctuation of the identification symbol 80). Therefore, if the player asks for a reliability suggestion by the winning effect for the judgment result of the notification effect currently being executed, the player must continue the game even when the notification effect is being executed (if the game ball is not fired ), Which contributes to the promotion of the game. In addition, when the so-called notification effect of the determination result of the success or failure of the change is not executed, the winning effect is not generated.

  As described above, according to the gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the suggestion of the jackpot reliability is performed by the game ball being won in the general winning opening 10, so that the idea of the game is improved. It is possible to

  Hereinafter, specific examples in which the gaming machine 1 according to the above embodiment is improved, embodied, modified or the like will be described. Note that a plurality of techniques described using the following specific examples may be combined and applied.

○ 1st concrete example It explained that the winning a prize presentation in the above-mentioned embodiment was to report the big hit reliability of the object success or failure judgment result, but it is not the big hit reliability but whether the target success or failure judgment result will be big hit or not May be notified (a so-called “one-shot notification” function effect presentation) (see FIG. 3). For example, when the light emitting unit 12 is lighted in a predetermined mode (see FIG. 3 (b-1)) triggered by the game ball winning in the general winning opening 10, a jackpot is determined. Is considered. In this case, in the case where the lighting is not performed in the predetermined mode (when the big hit is not notified) (refer to FIG. 3 (b-2)), it is possible to set the target result of the determination The possibility of becoming a jackpot may be set.

Second Specific Example In the above embodiment, it has been described that the target yes / no determination result whose jackpot reliability is suggested by the prize effect is the so-called "corresponding variation", but the yes / no determination information has already been Although it has been acquired, the notification effect for notifying the result of the judgment has not been started (the fluctuation of the identification symbol 80 has not been started), that is, the notification of the result of the corresponding judgment is "pending" (note that The "hold" refers to the success / failure determination information for which notification of the success / failure determination result is held, and is a concept different from "hold" (holding) of the game ball by the holding device 20 described later. It may be suggested that the jackpot reliability of the success or failure judgment result in the state of The presence of the "pending" is displayed as a pending display 81 so as to be graspable to the player (see FIG. 4A).

  In the case where there are a plurality of “pending” (when a plurality of pending propriety determination information is stored in the storage means), it is suggested by the prize that the probability that any of the plurality of pendings will be a big hit You may For example, when there are four reservations, it is suggested that the probability of a yes / no judgment result corresponding to any of the four reservations is likely to be a jackpot (see FIG. 4B). Alternatively, a probability of winning may be suggested for any one of the plurality of reservations. For example, it is suggested that the probability that the success / failure determination result corresponding to the suspension is the fastest in the order in which the notification effect is started (the earliest in the suspension sequence) among the plurality of suspension stored in the storage means (See FIG. 4 (c)).

Third Specific Example It is assumed that a holding device 20 for holding the game ball's winnings on the general winning opening 10 is provided. The said holding | maintenance apparatus 20 hold | maintains the game ball which approached in the predetermined | prescribed area | region, and should just be what can be made to be able to win the general winning a prize opening 10 at a predetermined | prescribed timing. For example, a holding member 21 in which a holding area 211 to which game balls having passed through a certain passage (a passage formed of game nails or the like) can enter is formed, and a drive mechanism (not shown) for rotating the holding member 21 A holding device 20 is provided (see FIG. 5). In a state where the holding member 21 is positioned so that the holding area 211 is positioned on the upper side, the gaming ball is held in the holding area 211 (see FIG. 5B). By rotating the holding member 21 so that the holding area 211 faces downward, the gaming balls in the holding area 211 win a prize in the general winning opening 10 (see FIG. 5C). That is, holding the gaming ball in the holding device 20 promises that the gaming ball will win in the general winning opening 10 in the future, and the holding device 20 controls the timing of the winning. It is a thing.

  With such a configuration provided with the holding device 20, it is possible to control the timing at which a winning effect is generated. That is, in a state where the gaming ball is held by the holding device 20, the holding member 21 is rotated so that the holding area 211 faces downward when the predetermined condition is satisfied. As a result, the winning effect can be generated when the predetermined condition is established (strictly speaking, immediately after the predetermined condition is established). In the above embodiment, the timing at which the game balls flowing down the game area reach the general winning opening 10 comes at irregular intervals. On the other hand, in the present example, as long as the gaming ball is held by the holding device 20, it is possible to freely control the timing at which the gaming ball wins the general winning opening 10.

  The predetermined condition can be set from various viewpoints. The content of the notification effect of the target success or failure judgment result is determined by the lottery based on the success or failure judgment result as in the case of a known gaming machine, and as a kind of the lottery, whether or not to execute the prize effect Make sure that the lottery is executed. That is, it is conceivable to set winning of the lottery as the establishment of the predetermined condition.

  In this example, the game balls held by the holding device 20 are set almost certainly (with almost 100% probability) to win the general winning opening 10, but the holding device 20 holds The probability that the game ball will win the general winning opening 10 may be set to be less than 100%. For example, a member (game nail or the like) for changing the movement (fall) direction of the game ball is provided between the holding device 20 and the general winning opening 10, and the holding device is operated even when the holding device 20 is operated. The game ball held at 20 is set so as not to know whether or not the general winning opening 10 will be won. In this way, while wishing that the game ball is to be won in the general winning opening 10 (a prize ball can be obtained), and in the case of winning, it is possible to pay attention also to the aspect of the prize effect generated by the prize. It is possible.

  Moreover, the aspect of the holding | maintenance apparatus 20 of this example is an example to the last. The game ball may be dropped toward the general winning opening 10 after stopping the game ball using electric or other power as in the holding device 20 of this example, or by a magnet or the like. The game ball may be dropped toward the general winning opening 10 after the game ball is adsorbed. That is, the game ball on the game board 90 may be kept on the spot regardless of the action of gravity, and it may be possible to drop the game ball toward the general winning opening 10 when it is operated.

○ Fourth specific example (example in which the third specific example is further embodied)
In the third specific example, as long as the gaming apparatus is held by the holding device 20, it is possible to freely control the timing at which the gaming ball wins the general winning opening 10. Therefore, prior to the occurrence of a winning effect, a preliminary effect for warning that the winning effect is to occur is generated. That is, unlike the above embodiment, in the configuration provided with the holding device 20, since the timing at which the winning effect is generated can be controlled, the player is notified in advance that the winning effect is generated.

  It may be anything as an aspect of the advance presentation. As an example, it can be considered to display in the display area 911 of the display device 91 the generation of the advance notice effect (see FIG. 6). For example, the player can easily display that "the ラ ン プ lamp (point to the light emitting unit 12)!" (See FIG. 6A) and the light emitting unit 12 emits light in a mode according to the reliability from now on To be able to By doing this, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the player misses the winning effect.

○ Fifth example (an example that further embodies the third example)
The timing at which a winning effect is generated can be determined by the player's intention. Specifically, an operation means 30 (a push button etc.) (see FIG. 1) operable by the player is provided, and the operation means 30 is operated in a state where the game ball is held by the holding device 20. As, the holding device 20 is driven (the holding member 21 is rotated so that the holding area 211 is directed downward), the gaming ball in the holding area 211 wins the general winning opening 10, and a prize effect is generated. (See Figure 7). In other words, it is assumed that "the operation means 30 has been operated" is set as a "predetermined condition" which is a trigger for generating a winning effect (driving the holding device 20).

  In this way, it is possible to make the player have a playability as if the player himself or herself is generating a winning effect. In addition, it becomes possible for the player to arbitrarily select the success or failure judgment result which is the target of the reliability degree indication by the prize effect.

○ Sixth example (an example that further embodies the third example)
It is assumed that the holding device can hold a plurality of gaming balls. Specifically, a plurality of gaming balls are held in the holding area 211 of the holding member 21. Then, when the number of gaming balls held by the holding device 20 reaches a predetermined number, the holding device 20 is driven so that the held gaming balls are sent to the general winning opening 10 (see FIG. 8). That is, when the number of gaming balls held by the holding device 20 reaches a predetermined number, a winning effect is generated. In this way, the player aims to play a predetermined number of gaming balls held in the holding device 20 (general winning opening 10), which contributes to promotion of the game.

  Any method may be used to determine whether the number of gaming balls held by the holding device 20 has reached a predetermined number. One example is a method of counting the number of gaming balls entering the holding device 20 (holding area 211) by the sensor 22 provided at the entrance of the holding device 20. Further, the number of game balls that can be held by the holding device 20 (holding area 211) may be the same as or different from the predetermined number. The number of gaming balls that can be held by the holding device 20 (holding area 211) needs to be equal to or more than the predetermined number.

  The aspect of the holding | maintenance apparatus 20 holding the several game ball shown in FIG. 8 is an example to the last. A plurality of game balls can be held, and it is sufficient that the plurality of game balls held by operation fall toward the general winning opening 10. As another example of the holding device 20, it is assumed that a passage in which a predetermined number of gaming balls can be arranged in a line substantially in the vertical direction is provided above the general winning opening 10. The outlet of the passage is opened and closed by an opening and closing member. When the opening and closing member is in the closed position, that is, when the exit of the passage is closed, gaming balls are stored in the passage. By displacing the opening and closing member to the open position, that is, opening the outlet of the passage, the gaming ball held in the passage falls toward the general winning opening 10.

  In addition, even in the case of using the holding device 20 for holding a plurality of gaming balls as in this example, all of the plurality of held gaming balls must almost certainly be won in the general winning opening 10 It doesn't have to be. A member such as a game nail may be provided between the holding device 20 and the general winning opening 10, and a part or all of the plurality of held gaming balls may not be winning in the general winning opening 10. In this case, a setting may be made such that a winning effect is generated when the number of gaming balls having won in the general winning opening 10 is equal to or more than a predetermined number. For example, by using a holding device 20 capable of holding X game balls, Y or more game balls (Y <X) win the general winning opening 10 during a predetermined period after the holding device 20 operates. When it is determined, a winning effect is generated, and the winning effect is not generated when only the game balls of less than Y (including 0) have not won the general winning opening 10. In this way, when the holding device 20 is operated, the player wishes that the number of gaming balls winning in the general winning opening 10 becomes a predetermined number or more (Y or more), and wishes that a prize effect is generated. It is possible to realize the

Seventh Specific Example In the above embodiment, it has been described that, as the winning effect, the lightness of the target determination result is suggested by the light emission of the light emitting portion 12, but the light emission mode of the light emitting portion 12 at the time of the winning effect In another aspect, another effect (hereinafter, referred to as a specific effect) in which the light emitting unit 12 emits light can be generated. That is, the light emission mode of the light emitting unit 12 at the time of the specific effect is different from any light emission mode of the light emitting unit 12 at the time of the winning effect. According to the above embodiment, the light emitting unit 12 emits light of any of blue, yellow, green, red and iridescent colors at the time of winning effects, while at the time of specific effects it is a light emitting color other than that (for example, white) It is exemplified to emit light (see FIG. 9). The light emission mode may be different according to elements other than the color (for example, by “flashing” or the like). By doing this, it becomes possible to make it easy to understand that a winning effect has occurred (it is possible to reduce the possibility that a player may mistake a specific effect for a winning effect).

  As the specific effect, it is possible to illustrate an effect that indicates that the gaming ball has won the general winning opening 10 when there is no target of the winning effect. That is, when the notification effect of notifying the result of the determination of the success or failure is not executed (when the identification symbol 80 is not in motion), when the game ball wins the general winning opening 10, it is provided corresponding to the general winning opening 10 A specific effect of causing the light emitting unit 12 to emit light in a light emission mode different from the winning effect is performed (see FIG. 9).

  In addition, as the specific effect, an effect not related to the general winning opening 10 may be set. For example, when a predetermined image is displayed in the display area 911, the light emitting unit 12 of the general winning opening 10 is different from that at the time of the prize generation in order to make the effect gorgeous (make the gaming area gorgeous). The light may be emitted in the light emission mode.

Eighth Specific Example In a configuration provided with a plurality of general winning openings 10, in some general winning openings 10 (hereinafter referred to as target general winning opening 10a), a winning effect is triggered when the game ball wins. Although it occurs, a winning effect is prevented from being generated when the game ball wins the other general winning opening 10 (hereinafter referred to as a normal general winning opening 10b) (see FIG. 10). In this way, the behavior of the game ball at the time of winning is the target general winning opening 10a (the light emitting unit 12 corresponding to the target general winning opening 10a) and the normal general winning opening 10b (the normal general winning opening 10b) And the game player, who has grasped the difference in the behavior, can easily notice the presence of a winning effect.

  It is good also as composition which is not provided with the corresponding light-emitting part 12 (because it is not necessary to perform a prize production) about the normal general winning a prize mouth 10b. In addition, the target general winning opening 10a and the normal general winning opening 10b have a presence or absence of a winning effect by making the target general winning opening 10a different from the aspect of the normal general winning opening 10b (such as the form of the pocket constituting the winning opening). The player may easily notice that they are different.

Ninth Embodiment With respect to a general winning opening, a winning effect is generated when two or more predetermined numbers of gaming balls have won. That is, instead of generating a winning effect every time one gaming ball wins, a winning effect occurs every time two or more gaming balls win. In this way, it is not only a suggestion of reliability by the winning effect but also a measure of how much the gaming ball has won with respect to the general winning opening 10 (how much the winning ball has been paid out).

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described in detail, this invention is not limited at all to the said embodiment, A various change is possible in the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention.
