Description

The present invention comprises a variable display unit capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information each identifiable,
The present invention relates to a gaming machine such as a slot machine capable of deriving a display result by stopping the variable display of the variable display unit after the variable display unit is variably displayed, and generating a winning according to the display result.

A slot machine, which is a type of gaming machine, generally includes a variable display unit having a reel having a plurality of types of symbols as identification information drawn on its outer periphery, and a start switch with a specified number of bets set. When the reel starts to rotate, and the stop switch is operated to stop the rotation of the reel, a predetermined symbol combination (for example, 7-7-7, hereinafter a symbol combination is selected on the winning line). A winning combination is generated by deriving a combination of display results (also called a combination).

As types of roles, there are types such as a small role, a special role, and a replay role. Here, when the display result corresponding to the small combination is derived on the winning line, the number of medals determined for each type of small combination is paid out. If the display result corresponding to the special role is derived on the winning line,
The game state can be shifted to a special game state advantageous to the player, such as a regular bonus or a big bonus. When the display result corresponding to the re-gamer is derived on the winning line, the next game can be played without consuming new medals for setting the bet amount.

As such a slot machine, it has multiple types of special roles, and on the bonus confirmation screen, after displaying the symbol combination corresponding to the unprofitable low-profit special role, it corresponds to the winning high-profit special role There is a slot machine that performs an upgrade effect that displays a symbol combination (for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent No. 5299929

The form for implementing a slot machine as a gaming machine concerning the present invention is explained below based on an example.

[Configuration of slot machine]
FIG. 1A is a front view of the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 1B is a view showing an example of a main internal configuration of the slot machine 1. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the symbol arrangement of the reels.

As shown in FIG. 1A, the slot machine 1 includes a liquid crystal display 51 that displays an image and a speaker 53 that outputs sound. A see-through window 3 is formed below the liquid crystal display 51. The player can visually recognize the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R arranged in parallel in the slot machine 1 through the see-through window 3. As shown in FIG. 2, on each reel 2L, 2C, 2R, symbols, which are a plurality of types of identification information that can be identified, are arranged in a predetermined order. Below the fluoroscopic window 3, a start switch 7 that is operated when starting a game (game), and a stop switch that is operated to stop the rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R and derive a display result. 8L, 8C, and 8R are provided.

As shown in FIG. 1B, a main control unit 41 that controls the progress of the game and outputs various commands according to the progress of the game is provided in the slot machine 1. The main control unit 41 includes a main CPU 41a that performs various controls related to the progress of the game, and a RAM 41c that stores various data related to the progress of the game. The main control unit 41 detects operations on the start switch 7 and the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R, and performs control related to the progress of the game according to the detected operations.

Inside the slot machine 1, there is provided a sub-control unit 91 that controls the production according to a command from the main control unit 41. The sub-control unit 91 includes a sub-CPU 91a that performs various controls related to effects, and a ROM that stores various data related to effects. The sub control unit 91 controls display of an image on the liquid crystal display 51 and sound output from the speaker 53 based on a command from the main control unit 41. Production data used for image display of the liquid crystal display 51 and sound output of the speaker 53 is stored in the ROM.

When playing a game in the slot machine 1, the player sets a prescribed number of bets by inserting medals into a medal insertion unit (not shown) or operating a BET switch (not shown). As a result, the winning line LN becomes valid, and the operation to the start switch 7 becomes valid so that the game can be started. The winning line is a line for determining whether or not the symbol combination on the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R displayed on the fluoroscopic window 3 matches the winning symbol combination.

If the start switch 7 is operated while the game can be started, the reels 2L, 2C, 2
R rotates. At this time, an internal lottery is performed by the main control unit 41. The internal lottery
This is a process of determining a symbol combination (display result) that allows derivation. The fact that the derivation of the symbol combination is permitted by the internal lottery is also said to have won the winning combination corresponding to the symbol combination. When the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated, the rotation of the reel corresponding to the operated stop switch is stopped. As a result, the symbol combination is derived and displayed on the transparent window 3. In addition,
Of the operations for the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R for stopping the rotation of the reels, the operation for stopping the rotation of the first reel is the first stop operation, and the operation for stopping the rotation of the second reel. The second stop operation and the operation for stopping the rotation of the third reel are also referred to as a third stop operation. When a symbol combination that matches the symbol combination of the winning combination is stopped on the winning line, a winning corresponding to the winning combination is generated. In this embodiment,
Five winning lines are set, and the occurrence of winning is determined according to the symbol combination stopped on any one of the first winning line LN1 to the fifth winning line LN5. In addition,
In this embodiment, five winning lines are set, but the number of winning lines is one.
It is only necessary to set more than this. Hereinafter, the first winning line LN1 to the fifth winning line LN5 are collectively referred to as winning lines.

[Winner]
As a winning combination (also referred to as “winning winning combination”), a special combination (bonus), a small combination, and a re-playing combination are provided. The bonus is a role in which the gaming state is controlled to a bonus state in which the probability of winning a small role is higher than that in the non-bonus state by winning a prize, and is a role that accompanies the bonus state. A small role is a role to which a medal is awarded by winning a prize. The re-playing combination (replay) is a combination that allows the next game to be started without consuming a medal owned by the player by winning. FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a winning combination.

In the present embodiment, a plurality of types of bonuses are provided. Multiple types of bonuses
It includes at least a plurality of types of bonuses having different degrees of advantage regarding the bonus state.
The degree of advantage related to the bonus state includes the degree of advantage during the period controlled by the bonus state and the degree of advantage of the transition-destination bonus state. In the present embodiment, among a plurality of types of bonuses, a plurality of types of bonuses having different degrees of advantage differ in the degree of advantage regarding the bonus state in that the periods (end conditions) controlled to the bonus state are different from each other.

Specifically, the bonus includes five types of bonuses: big bonuses 1 to 3 (hereinafter, each big bonus is referred to as BB), and regular bonuses 1 and 2 (hereinafter, each regular bonus is referred to as RB).

BB1 is awarded when the combination of “Black 7-Black 7-Black 7” is aligned on the winning line. BB2 is awarded when the combination of “white 7-white 7-white 7” is aligned on the winning line. BB3 is awarded when the combination of “white 7-black 7-bar” is aligned on the winning line. RB1 is awarded when the combination of “Black 7-Black 7-Bar” is aligned on the winning line. RB2 is awarded when the combination of “white 7-white 7-bar” is aligned on the winning line.

If any of BB1 to BB3, RB1 and RB2 is won, the bonus state is controlled until a predetermined number of medals are paid out after shifting to the bonus state. In particular,
When winning BB1, the bonus state is controlled until 200 or more medals are paid out. When winning BB2, the bonus state is controlled until 200 or more medals are paid out. When winning BB3, the bonus state is controlled until 300 or more medals are paid out. When winning RB1, the bonus state is controlled until 50 or more medals are paid out. When winning RB2, the bonus state is controlled until 50 or more medals are paid out.

That is, the period during which the bonus state is controlled is the longest when BB3 is won, followed by BB1 and BB2, then RB1 and RB2. Therefore, the degree of advantage regarding the bonus state is higher in BB1 and BB2 than in RB1 and RB2, and higher in BB3 than BB1 and BB2.

Small roles include cherry and bell. Each small combination is set with a symbol combination. Cherry is awarded when a combination of “cherry-cherry-any (any symbol is acceptable)” is arranged on the winning line. When Cherry wins, one medal is paid out.

A bell is awarded when a combination of “bell-bell-bell” is arranged on the winning line.
When Bell wins, 8 medals are paid out. During the bonus state, the probability of winning the bell among the small roles is higher than in the non-bonus state.

The replay player includes replay. Replay is awarded when a combination of “rip-rip-lip” is arranged on the winning line. The winning combination shown in FIG. 3 is an example, and other winning combinations may be set.

[Internal lottery]
In the internal lottery, whether or not the main control unit 41 allows the winning of each combination described above before the display results of all the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are derived (specifically, the start switch 7
At the time of detection). In the internal lottery, a lottery role (a lottery target role) is set for each gaming state such as a bonus state, and one lottery target role is determined from the set lottery target roles. Winning of a combination included in a combination is allowed. Here, winning a prize is also called winning.

In the present embodiment, the lottery target combination includes a lottery target combination including one combination and a lottery target combination including a plurality of combinations. Here, the fact that a plurality of winning combinations are determined as a lottery target winning combination including a plurality of winning combinations at the same time is also referred to as simultaneous winning.

Cherry is a role that can be won simultaneously with BB1 to BB3, RB1, and RB2 (hereinafter collectively referred to as “bonus”) during a normal state in which the bonus is not won. On the other hand, the replay and the small role are not won simultaneously with the bonus during the normal state where the bonus is not won.
Also, BB1 to BB3, RB1, and RB2 are not won simultaneously. For example, B
B1 and RB1 will not win simultaneously.

During normal conditions, replays and small roles do not win simultaneously with bonuses, while cherries are wins that can be won simultaneously with bonuses. In other words, if you win a cherry, you may have won the bonus at the same time. A combination that may have obtained the right to shift to an advantageous state such as a bonus state when winning is also referred to as a “rare combination”.

[Reel control]
The main control unit 41 functions as a derivation control unit that performs reel control for deriving a display result. The main control unit 41 performs reel control based on the result of the internal lottery and the manner in which the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated. The mode in which the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated includes the order in which the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated and the operation timing.

In the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 can stop the reel by drawing in a maximum of 4 symbols after detecting that the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated (stop operation). In other words, the stop position of the symbol can be designated from a range of a maximum of 5 frames including the stop operation position where the stop operation is detected. 1 to move the reel for one symbol
Since it is necessary to move the frame, it is possible to stop the reel by pulling up to 4 symbols after detecting the stop operation, and from the range of up to 5 symbols including the stop operation position where the stop operation is detected. The stop position can be specified.

In the present embodiment, the reels 2L, 2C, 2R rotate so that the symbols pass on the winning line LN in the numerical order shown in FIG. After “20”, the process returns to “1”. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the symbols constituting the lip and bell of the winning combination are reels 2L, 2L.
Both C and 2R are arranged at intervals within 5 symbols, that is, within 4 frames.
Therefore, regardless of the timing of operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, it is always possible to win a prize when winning a lip and a bell.

On the other hand, among the winning combinations, symbols constituting BB1 to RB3, RB1, RB2, and cherry are
None of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R is arranged within 5 symbols. for that reason,
Stop switch 8L when winning BB1-3, RB1, RB2, and cherry
, 8C, 8R may not be awarded depending on the timing of operation.

When the main control unit 41 wins BB1 to RB3, RB1, RB2, and cherry, the stop switches 8L and 8C are at the timing of drawing the symbols constituting the winning combination.
, 8R is operated, the winning combination is won, and on the other hand, when the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R is operated at a timing at which the symbols constituting the winning combination cannot be drawn, Reel control is performed so as not to win the role. In the present embodiment, since a plurality of winning lines are set, the winning line is selected depending on which winning line the symbols constituting the winning combination are stopped by the first stop operation.

[Game state]
FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the gaming state. As shown in FIG. 4, in the slot machine 1, a normal state, an internal medium state, and a bonus state are provided as controllable gaming states. When the main control unit 41 wins the bonus during the normal state and does not win the bonus in the game in which the bonus is won, the main control unit 41 controls the internal state from the next game. on the other hand,
When the bonus is won during the normal state and the bonus is won in the bonus-winning game, or when the bonus is won during the internal middle state, the bonus game is controlled from the next game.

Specifically, the main control unit 41 carries over the winning flag (bonus winning flag) set when the bonus is won to the game where the winning of the winning bonus occurs. The state where the bonus winning flag is carried over is the internal medium state. For example, the main control unit 4
1 is BB1 winning flag when winning BB1, BB2 winning flag when winning BB2, BB3 winning flag when winning BB3, RB1 when winning RB1
When the winning flag is won by RB2, the RB2 winning flag is carried over to the game where the winning bonus is won. When a small role or re-playing role is won during the internal state, or when a small role and bonus are simultaneously won during the normal state, the main control unit 41 responds to the selected small role or re-playing role. Reel control is performed so that the symbol combination is preferentially drawn onto the winning line. In other words, the small combination and the re-playing combination can be won with a higher priority than the bonus. Note that reel control may be performed so that a bonus can be preferentially won over a small combination or a re-playing combination. In addition, in the following, bonuses and rare roles will be won simultaneously during the normal state, bonuses and rare roles will be won simultaneously during the normal state, as a whole, bonuses and other roles will be won simultaneously To do. Moreover, it is also said that the bonus is independently won when the bonus and the other combination are not won simultaneously.

After controlling to the bonus state, the main control unit 41 controls to the bonus state until the end condition shown in FIG. 3 is satisfied, and controls to the normal state when the end condition is satisfied.

In the present embodiment, although not shown, the bonus states are the bonus state 1 that shifts with the winning of BB1, the bonus state 2 that shifts with the winning of BB2, and the bonus state that shifts with the winning of BB3. 3, a regular bonus state 1 that shifts with the winning of RB 1, and a regular bonus state 2 that shifts with the winning of RB 2.

[Outline of various productions]
First, various effects performed by the sub-control unit 91 in the slot machine 1 according to the present embodiment will be described. The sub-control unit 91 grasps the state of the game, such as bonus winning or bonus winning based on a command from the main control unit 41, and executes various effects using the effect data stored in the ROM.

(Development production)
In the present embodiment, in a game in which a rare combination that is a simultaneous winning combination that can be won simultaneously with a bonus is won, a development effect that causes a player to expect to develop into a mission effect described later may be executed. Note that the same development effect may be executed regardless of the type of the simultaneous winning combination, or different development effects may be executed depending on the type of the simultaneous winning combination. In the development effect, the development effect data is used as the effect data.

In the development effect, an image of the treasure box is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. When a cloud with the word “development” appears in the treasure box, the cloud image continues to move, and BGM (
Sound output such as Back Ground Music) and character voice continues. In the present embodiment, the character voice includes a speech sound by a human character, a sound effect by a treasure box or a cloud character, and the like. This gives the player a bright impression and suggests that the player develops into mission production.

On the other hand, when a cloud without any characters appears in the treasure box, darkening processing is performed, and the image of the cloud eventually stops, and sound output such as BGM and character voice stops. The darkening process is a process of gradually darkening the entire screen by gradually reducing the brightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51. In this way, the entire screen becomes dark, the moving image is changed to a still image, and the sound output is also stopped, thereby giving a dark impression to the player. This suggests that the player does not develop into a mission effect. In addition, the concrete effect aspect of an expansion effect is later mentioned, referring FIG.

(Mission production)
In the present embodiment, when the player is suggested to develop a mission effect in the development effect, a mission effect that causes the player to expect a bonus win is executed in the next game. Mission production includes battle mission production and castle search mission production. Which mission effect is executed is determined by lottery when the simultaneous winning combination is won. The mission effect to be executed may be determined according to the type of the simultaneous winning combination.

In the battle mission effect, battle mission effect data is used as effect data. In the castle search mission effect, castle search mission effect data is used as effect data. However, regardless of whether the battle mission effect or the castle search mission effect is executed, common effect data is used for the darkening process executed in the mission effect. That is, a common darkening process is performed in both the battle mission effect and the castle search mission effect.

In the battle mission effect, an effect image in which a teammate character and an enemy character develop a battle is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. When the teammate character eventually wins against the enemy character, a character image of “WIN” is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, and the image of the character continues to move, and sound output such as BGM and character voice is output. continue. This gives the player a bright impression and suggests that the player has won the bonus.

On the other hand, when the teammate character is eventually defeated by the enemy character, darkening processing is performed, and the image of the character or the like is eventually stopped, and sound output such as BGM or character voice is stopped. This gives a dark impression to the player and suggests to the player that the bonus was not won. A specific aspect of the battle mission effect will be described later with reference to FIG.

In the castle search mission effect, an effect image in which the character searches for a castle is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. When the character finally finds the castle, the character image “WIN” is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, and the image of the character or the like continues to move.
Sound output such as M and character voice continues. This gives the player a bright impression,
It is suggested to the player that the bonus was won.

On the other hand, if the character eventually gets lost in the forest without finding a castle, darkening processing is performed, and the image of the character or the like is eventually stopped, and sound output such as BGM or character voice is stopped. This gives a dark impression to the player and suggests to the player that the bonus was not won. In addition, the specific production | generation aspect of a castle search mission production is later mentioned, referring FIG.

(Bonus confirmed production)
In the present embodiment, when the player is informed that a bonus is won by a mission effect, a bonus confirmation effect is executed in the next game. Regardless of whether the battle mission effect or the castle search mission effect is passed, the bonus confirmed effect data is used as effect data in the bonus confirmed effect. That is,
Regardless of whether the battle mission effect or the castle search mission effect is passed, a common bonus confirmation effect is executed.

Note that while the bonus finalized effect is being executed, an image corresponding to the mission effect that has passed through is displayed on the back side of the image corresponding to the bonus finalized effect. That is, when the battle mission effect is passed, an image of the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side based on the battle mission effect data, and an image of the bonus confirmation effect is displayed on the front side based on the bonus confirmed effect data. . In addition, when the castle search mission effect is passed, an image of the castle search mission effect is displayed on the back side based on the castle search mission effect data, and a bonus confirmation effect image is displayed on the front side based on the bonus determination effect data. Is displayed. Regardless of which image of battle mission effect data and castle search mission effect data is displayed on the back side, a common bonus confirmation effect image is displayed on the front side based on the common bonus confirmation effect data.

In the bonus confirmation effect, the character image of “BONUS determination” is enlarged and displayed in a reduced size, and then stops at a fixed position that does not hinder the visibility of the mission effect image being executed on the back side. Then, an effect for emphasizing the character image of “BONUS determination” is generated, and the sound of “bonus determination” is output from the speaker 53.
This indicates to the player that the bonus has been won. In addition, the concrete effect aspect of the bonus confirmation effect at the time of going through a battle mission effect is mentioned later, referring FIG. Further, a specific effect mode of the bonus confirmation effect when the castle search mission effect is passed will be described later with reference to FIG.

Further, the bonus finalization effect is executed regardless of which bonus is won or not. In addition, when a plurality of types of bonus finalization effects are set as bonus finalization effects, it is preferable that the execution ratio of the bonus finalization effects for each type to be executed is not changed regardless of the type of the winning bonus. By doing so, the player does not know which bonus is won at the stage when the bonus finalization effect is executed. Therefore, it is possible to give the player a sense of expectation as to which bonus is won.

(Designated role suggestion)
In the present embodiment, when a predetermined combination other than a rare combination and a special combination such as a bell or a replay is won, a predetermined combination suggestion effect that suggests the type of the selected combination may be executed.

In addition, while the predetermined role suggestion effect is being executed in the game after the bonus finalization effect is executed, an image corresponding to the transited mission effect is displayed on the back side of the image corresponding to the predetermined role suggestion effect. Is displayed. That is, when the battle mission effect is passed, an image of the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side based on the battle mission effect data, and an image of the predetermined role suggestion effect is displayed on the front side based on the predetermined role suggestion effect data. The In addition, when the castle search mission effect is passed, an image of the castle search mission effect is displayed on the back side based on the castle search mission effect data, and the predetermined role suggestion effect is displayed on the front side based on the predetermined role suggestion effect data. An image is displayed. Regardless of which image of battle mission effect data and castle search mission effect data is displayed on the back side, a common predetermined role suggestion effect image is displayed on the front side based on the common predetermined role suggestion effect data .

For example, in a predetermined role suggesting effect when a bell is won, a bell symbol image showing a symbol corresponding to the bell is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. The bell symbol image moves upward so as to look from the lower side of the screen, and finally stops at a fixed position that does not hinder the visibility of the mission effect image being executed on the back side as much as possible. In addition, the specific production | presentation aspect of the predetermined | prescribed role suggestion effect at the time of passing through a battle mission production is later mentioned, referring FIG. Further, a specific effect mode of the predetermined role suggestion effect when the castle search mission effect is passed will be described later with reference to FIG.

(Combination production)
In the present embodiment, when the bonus winning is carried over, a combination effect suggesting the type of the winning bonus is executed. Production data corresponding to the suggested bonus type is stored in the ROM. For example, if you suggest that you have won BB1,
RB when the B1 combination effect is executed and suggests that RB1 is won
One combination effect is executed. Regardless of whether the battle mission effect or the castle search mission effect is passed, the combination effect data is used as the effect data in the combination effect. That is, a common combination effect is executed regardless of whether the battle mission effect or the castle search mission effect is passed.

Note that while the combination effect is being executed, an image corresponding to the transmitted mission effect is displayed on the back side of the image corresponding to the combination effect. That is, when the battle mission effect is passed, an image of the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side based on the battle mission effect data, and an image of the combination effect is displayed on the front side based on the combination effect data. When a castle search mission effect is passed, an image of the castle search mission effect is displayed on the back side based on the castle search mission effect data, and a combination effect image is displayed on the front side based on the combination effect data. The Regardless of which image of battle mission effect data and castle search mission effect data is displayed on the back side, a common combination effect image is displayed on the front side based on the common combination effect data.

In the combination effect, a symbol image showing a symbol combination corresponding to a bonus that can be won is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. The symbol image is gradually reduced and displayed after being enlarged, and eventually stops at a fixed position where the visibility of the mission effect image being executed on the back side is not hindered as much as possible. For example, in the RB1 combination effect,
An image showing “black 7 black 7 bar” is used. In the BB1 combination effect, an image indicating “black 7 black 7 black 7” is used. In addition, the concrete effect aspect of RB1 combination effect at the time of passing through a battle mission effect is mentioned later, referring FIG. A specific effect mode of the BB1 combination effect in the case of going through the battle mission effect will be described later with reference to FIG. Further, a specific effect mode of the RB1 combination effect when the castle search mission effect is passed will be described later with reference to FIG. A specific effect mode of the BB1 combination effect when the castle search mission effect is passed will be described later with reference to FIG.

(Promotion promotion)
In this embodiment, when a bonus win is carried over, a series of bonuses that are carried over (a carry-over bonus) are suggested after a bonus of a type different from the carry-over bonus (a non-carry bonus) is suggested. There are cases where the promotion effect is executed.

The promotion effect is a game after the bonus finalization effect has been executed, and is a combination effect that suggests the winning of the non-carry-over bonus in a game in which the carry-over bonus cannot be won (
A false combination effect) is executed, and then a combination effect (true combination effect) suggesting a carryover bonus is executed.

Here, even when a combination effect that suggests a specific bonus is executed as a false combination effect, or when a combination effect that suggests the specific bonus is executed as a true combination effect, common combination effect data as effect data Is used. For example, the common combination effect data is used as the effect data both when the RB1 combination effect is executed as the false combination effect and when the RB1 combination effect is executed as the true combination effect.

In addition, regardless of whether the battle mission directing or the castle search mission directing is used, the combination directing data is used as the directing data in the combination directing, and either the battle mission directing or the castle searching mission directing is used. Regardless of this, a common combination effect is executed. Therefore, regardless of whether the battle mission directing or the castle search mission directing is passed, the promotion directing uses the common combination directing data as the directing data, and either through the battle mission directing or the castle searching mission directing Regardless, a common promotion effect is executed.

(Bonus winning effect)
In the present embodiment, when a bonus winning occurs, a bonus winning effect suggesting the occurrence of the bonus winning is executed. Regardless of whether the battle mission effect or the castle search mission effect is passed, in the bonus prize effect, the common bonus prize effect data is used as effect data. That is, a common bonus winning effect is executed regardless of whether the battle mission effect or the castle search mission effect is passed.

For example, in the bonus winning effect when winning BB1,
After the character image “is enlarged and displayed, the image is gradually reduced and then stops at a fixed position. Then, an effect for enhancing the character image of “BIGBONUS” occurs, and “
The sound “big bonus” is output from the speaker 53. This suggests a big bonus prize to the player. In addition, the concrete effect aspect of the bonus winning effect when going through the battle mission effect will be described later with reference to FIG. Further, a specific effect mode of the bonus winning effect when the castle search mission effect is passed will be described later with reference to FIG.

[Example of development]
An example of the development effect will be specifically described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the development effect. In FIG. 5, the same effects are executed in (h1) to (h4) regardless of whether or not the mission effects are developed, and then the effects (h5) to (h9) are performed when the mission effects are not developed. On the other hand, when the mission effect is developed, the effects (h11) to (h15) are executed. In the effects (h5) to (h9) and the effects (h11) to (h15), effects that change on the same time axis are shown in FIG. That is, in the present embodiment, it is assumed that the production periods (h5) to (h9) and the production periods (h11) to (h15) are the same length. Regardless of whether or not the bonus has been won and the type of bonus that has been won, when the execution of the development effect is determined, the same effect is executed in (h1) to (h4). Note that the reels 2L, 2C, 2R and the liquid crystal display 51 shown in FIG. 5 are schematic views, and the ratio of the sizes of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R and the liquid crystal display 51 in FIG. It does not necessarily match the actual machine ratio.

First, in the internal lottery performed when the start switch 7 is operated, it is assumed that a cherry that can be won simultaneously with a bonus is won. At this time, for example, whether to develop into a mission effect by lottery and the type of mission effect in the case of development are determined. Then, the development effect is executed in the game shown after (h1).

As shown in (h1), the reel is rotated by the operation of the start switch 7. On the liquid crystal display 51, an image indicating that the character is walking is displayed together with a background image of mountains and the sun indicating the normal state. A normal BGM is output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (h2), when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch, the development effect starts. On the liquid crystal display 51, an image of a treasure box and a key, a character image of “if there is development in the treasure box ...” that makes a cloud with the word “development” appear from the treasure box, and Is displayed. From the speaker 53, BGM for before development is output. Since the cherry that is a rare role is stopped at the lower stage of the stopped left reel, the player can recognize that the cherry is won as a rare role that can be won simultaneously with the bonus.

As shown in (h3), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch, an animation (moving image) that inserts a key into the treasure box is displayed. The pre-development BGM is continuously output from the speaker 53, and a sound effect “gacha” that unlocks the treasure chest is output.

As shown in (h4), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch, an animation is displayed in which the treasure chest is slightly opened and a part of the clouds can be seen from inside. From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM before development is continued, and further, a sound effect of “flickering” that allows a little cloud to be seen is output. With such an effect, the player can be expected to develop into a mission effect.

When it does not develop into a mission effect, as shown in (h5), an animation in which a treasure box opens and a cloud appears from the inside is displayed. When it does not develop into mission production, no characters are attached to the appearing clouds. A non-development BGM is output from the speaker 53, and further, a sound effect “paka” that opens the treasure chest is output.

After that, as shown in (h6), an animation that moves the appearing cloud is displayed. From the speaker 53, the output of the non-development BGM is continued, and “
The sound effect “shush” is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (h7), the dark turnover process is started. Specifically, the animation of moving clouds shown in (h6) is finished, the moving cloud image is stationary, and the brightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 is (h6). Lower than the brightness of the image shown,
The entire screen becomes dark. From the speaker 53, BGM for dark transition is output.

After that, as shown in (h8), the brightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 is further lowered by the darkening process, and the brightness of the image shown in (h7) is further lowered. The treasure chest and cloud images remain stationary and are in the same display state as (h7). From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for dark transition is continued, and further, “Gurn” is suggested as a sound suggesting that it has not developed into a mission effect so as to match the dark transition process from (h7) to (h8). Sound effects are output.

Thereafter, as shown in (h9), the lightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 is further lowered than the lightness of the image shown in (h8) by the darkening process, and the entire screen is further darkened. In addition, even if the darkening process is performed, clouds and treasure chests are visible. The treasure chest and cloud images remain stationary and are in the same display state as (h7) and (h8). The speaker 53 stops outputting sound, and no BGM or character sound is output from the speaker 53.

Thereafter, as shown in (h10), when the start switch 7 is operated, again (h1)
Return to the normal performance.

On the other hand, when developing into a mission effect, as shown in (h11), an animation is displayed in which a treasure box is opened and clouds appear from inside. Since this is a case where the mission develops, the characters “Development” are added to the appearing clouds. From speaker 53, B for development
GM is output, and further, a sound effect “Paka” that opens the treasure chest is output.

After that, as shown in (h12), an animation that moves the appearing cloud is displayed. From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for development is continued, and further, the cloud moves.
The sound effect “shush” is output.

After that, as shown in (h13), an animation that further moves the cloud is displayed. In addition, since it is a case where it develops into a mission effect, the darkening process like (h7) is not performed. From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for development is continued, and further, a sound effect “shush” that moves the cloud is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (h14), an animation is displayed so that the clouds gradually increase. In addition, since it is a case where it develops into a mission effect, the darkening process like (h8) is not performed. From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for development is continued, and further, a sound effect “pyrrolylorin” is output as a sound suggesting that it will be developed into a mission effect.

After that, as shown in (h15), an animation that further increases the cloud is displayed. In addition, since it is a case where it develops into a mission effect, the darkening process like (h9) is not performed. From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for development is continued, and further, the character voice “development” is output as a sound that suggests that the development will be a mission effect.
Thereafter, the mission effect described later with reference to FIG. 6 (a1) or FIG. 12 (b1) is developed.

Thus, in the development effect, when it does not develop into the mission effect, darkness processing is performed, so that the brightness of the images shown in (h7) to (h9) is higher than the brightness of the images shown in (h13) to (h15). In addition, as shown in (h7) to (h9), the image displayed as an animation is stopped and the sound output is stopped, so that a dark impression is given to the player. This suggests that the player does not develop into a mission effect. On the other hand, when the mission effect is developed, as shown in (h13) to (h15), the image is continuously displayed without being subjected to darkening processing, and sound output such as BGM and character voice is continued. By doing so, since the sound is output for a longer period than when it does not develop into a mission effect, a bright impression is given to the player. This suggests that the player develops into a mission effect.

[Examples of various effects when using battle mission effects]
With reference to FIGS. 6 to 11, specific examples of various effects when a battle mission effect is used will be specifically described.

(An example of battle mission production)
FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a battle mission effect. In FIG. 6, (a1) to (a) regardless of whether or not a bonus is won and the type of bonus that is won.
In 6), when the same performance is executed and the bonus is not won thereafter (a7)
While the effects (a11) to (a11) are executed, the effects (a13) to (a17) are executed regardless of the type of the winning bonus when the bonus is won. (A7) ~
In the effect of (a11) and the effects of (a13) to (a17), effects that transition on the same time axis are shown in parallel in FIG. That is, in this embodiment, (a7) to (
It is assumed that the production period of a11) and the production periods of (a13) to (a17) are periods of the same length. In FIG. 6, the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are omitted and only the liquid crystal display 51 is displayed. However, in the battle effect when the bonus is won, the winning bonus is not won. It will be explained as a thing.

After (h15) in FIG. 6, when the start switch 7 is operated to start the next game, a battle mission effect starts as shown in (a1). The liquid crystal display 51 displays an image in which the ally character (character on the left side of the screen) and the enemy character (character on the right side of the screen) face each other at the Colosseum. And a character image of “Defeat enemy character A!” Suggesting a subtitle for the battle mission effect. When there are multiple types of battle mission effects, for example, “Defeat enemy character B!” Or “Defeat boss!”
The subtitle may change depending on the type. A BGM for battle is output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (a2), when a predetermined time elapses, the character image of “Battle Mission” and the character image of “Defeat Enemy A!” Disappear, and the Colosseum displayed on the back side shows the friend character and the enemy character. The image facing the character appears more clearly. From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for battle is continued.

As shown in (a3), when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch, an image in which a friend character and an enemy character develop a battle is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In this example, an image in which the teammate character is dominant is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for battle is continued.

As shown in (a4), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch, an image in which a friend character and an enemy character battle each other is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In this example, an image in which the teammate character is inferior is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.
From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for battle is continued.

As shown in (a5), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch, the scene changes to a night scene, and an image in which the ally character and the enemy character confront each other at the Colosseum is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. . The speaker 53 continues to output the BGM for battle, and further outputs a speech sound “This is the last!” Indicating that the battle is settled.

Thereafter, as shown in (a6), an image in which the teammate character and the enemy character battle again is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. The speaker 53 continues to output the BGM for battle, and further outputs a “trier” speech sound that makes an incandescent battle unfold.

When the bonus is not won, as shown in (a7), an image in which the teammate character is defeated by the enemy character is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as an image indicating that the bonus has not been won. Specifically, an animation is displayed in which an ally character shakes and an enemy character is delighted. The speaker 53 outputs the BOSE for LOSE, and further outputs a speech sound “losing” indicating that the ally character has been defeated.

Thereafter, as shown in (a8), an animation is displayed in which the ally character shakes while falling and tears further spill and the enemy character is delighted. The BOSE output for LOSE is continued from the speaker 53, and the enemy character “comes at any time”.
Will be output.

Thereafter, as shown in (a9), the dark turnover process starts. Specifically, the animation in which the character shown in (a8) moves is finished, the character image is stopped, and the brightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 is the image shown in (a8). The brightness of the screen will be lower and the entire screen will be darker. From the speaker 53, BGM for dark transition is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (a10), the lightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 is further lowered than the lightness of the image shown in (a9) by the darkening process, and the entire screen is further darkened. The character image remains stationary and is in the same display state as (a9). Speaker 5
From No. 3, the output of the BGM for dark transition is continued, and a sound effect of “Gurn” is suggested as a sound suggesting that the bonus was not won so as to match the dark transition process from (a9) to (a10). Is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (a11), the lightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 is further lowered than the lightness of the image shown in (a10) by the darkening process, and the entire screen is further darkened. Even if the darkening process is performed, the character is visible. The character image remains stationary and is in the same display state as (a9) and (a10). Speaker 53
Stops the sound output, and no BGM or character sound is output from the speaker 53.

Thereafter, as shown in (a12), when the start switch 7 is operated, again (h1)
Return to the normal performance.

On the other hand, when the bonus is won, as shown in (a13), an image in which the teammate character wins the enemy character is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as an image indicating that the bonus has been won. Specifically, an animation that the enemy character shakes and the ally character is pleased is displayed. From the speaker 53, BGM for WIN is output.
A speech sound “win” indicating that the ally character has won is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (a14), an animation is displayed in which the enemy character trembles while falling and tears spill further, and the friendly character is pleased. The speaker 53 continues to output the BGM for WIN, and further, the speech sound “I did” by the teammate character is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (a15), the character image “WIN” is displayed on the upper left of the liquid crystal display 51 while the ally character and the enemy character are moving. Since the bonus is won, the darkening process as in (a9) is not performed. From speaker 53, W
Output of BGM for IN continues, and "Mission clear" by allied characters
Will be output.

After that, as shown in (a16), an animation is displayed in which the confetti falls further while the character is moving. In addition, since it is a case where a bonus is won,
The darkening process as in (a10) is not performed. The speaker 53 continues to output the WIN BGM, and further outputs a sound effect “Pyrrololien” as a sound indicating that the bonus has been won.

After that, as shown in (a17), an animation is displayed in which a larger amount of confetti falls while the character is moving. Since the bonus is won, the darkening process as in (a11) is not performed. WIN BG from speaker 53
The output of M is continued, and further, a character voice “WIN” is output as a sound indicating that the bonus has been won. Thereafter, the bonus winning is carried over, and the process proceeds to a bonus confirmation effect described later with reference to FIG.

Thus, in the battle mission effect, when the bonus is not won, the lightness of the images shown in (a9) to (a11) becomes (a15) to (a1) by performing the darkening process.
7) The brightness of the image is lower than that shown in (7), and as shown in (a9) to (a11), the animated image is stopped and the sound output is also stopped, giving the player a dark impression. . This suggests to the player that no bonus has been won. On the other hand, when a bonus is won, as shown in (a15) to (a17), an image is displayed so that the image continues to move without performing darkening processing, and sound output such as BGM and character voice continues. By doing so, since the sound is output for a longer period than when the bonus is not won, a bright impression is given to the player. This suggests to the player that the bonus has been won.

In order to advance the game while the effects shown in (a7) to (a11) when the bonus is not won or the effects shown in (a13) to (a17) when the bonus is won are being executed. (For example, the start operation of the next game and the setting operation of the bet number) are possible. For this reason, when it transfers to the next game before a series of battle mission effects are complete | finished, it is also possible to end a battle mission effect in the middle (what is called cancellation).

Moreover, even if any bonus is won, a battle mission effect may be executed. Therefore, in the stage after the stage (a13) in which the bonus win is suggested in the battle mission stage, the player is in a situation where he / she does not know which bonus is won. In addition, when multiple types of battle mission effects are provided, the types of bonuses and the types of battle mission effects may be associated with each other. Even in this case, the type of bonus is not determined by the type of battle mission effects. Thus, the battle mission effect is performed. For example, when winning BB1 or BB2, the first battle mission effect is executed with a high probability, and when winning BB3, the second battle mission effect is executed with a high probability, and RB1 or RB2 is won. If so, the third battle mission effect may be executed with a high probability.

(An example of a bonus confirmation effect via a battle mission effect)
FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of the bonus confirmation effect via the battle mission effect. It is assumed that the start switch 7 is operated as shown in (a18) after it is suggested that the bonus is won in (a17) described above. In the internal lottery performed at this time, it is assumed that the replay is won together with the carry-over bonus. In FIG. 7, it is assumed that the same effect is executed regardless of the type of bonus that has been won.

As shown in (a18), after the start switch 7 is operated, the bonus confirmation effect starts. The liquid crystal display 51 displays on the back side an image in which the teammate character in the battle mission effect has won the enemy character, but the character image “BONUS confirmed” is enlarged on the front side. At this time, some of the characters “BONUS confirmed” (“B” and “S”) are outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 and are not visible.
Further, the remaining characters (“O”, “N”, “U”, “definite”) among the characters “BONUS confirmed”
, “Fixed”) does not fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in (a19), the character image “BONUS confirmed” is then gradually reduced and displayed toward the center of the screen. As a result, some characters (“B” and “S”) outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 can be barely recognized within the display area.
The remaining characters (“O”, “N”, “U”, “certain”, “fixed”) among the characters “US confirmed” fit within the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. However, some characters (“B” and “S”) that are outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 have not yet been accommodated in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 and are thus difficult to recognize.

As shown in (a20), the character image “BONUS confirmed” is further reduced and displayed gradually toward the center of the screen. This makes it easier to recognize the characters “BONUS confirmed”.

As shown in (a21), the character image “BONUS confirmed” is further reduced and displayed gradually toward the center of the screen. As a result, the characters “BONUS confirmed” completely fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in (a22), the character image “BONUS confirmed” is further reduced and displayed gradually toward the center of the screen, and then temporarily stops at the center of the screen as a fixed position.

As shown in (a18) to (a22), it is suggested that a bonus is won in a series of screen states in which the character image of “BONUS confirmed” is changed from an enlarged display state in which recognition is difficult to a reduced display state in which recognition is easy. A sound effect “Pappara” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound.

Thereafter, as shown in (a23), the character image “BONUS confirmed” starts moving toward the upper left of the screen while being reduced again.

Then, as shown in (a24), the character image “BONUS confirmed” continues to move toward the upper left of the screen while being further reduced in size.

As shown in (a25), the “BONUS confirmed” character image is further reduced and displayed, and stops at a fixed position in the upper left of the screen. The fixed position at the upper left of the screen is a position that does not hinder the visibility of the image related to the battle mission displayed on the back side. In this embodiment, “BON
The character image of “US confirmed” is not superimposed on various images (friend characters, enemy characters, colosseum, moon, stars) of the battle mission effect.

As shown in (a23) to (a25), the character image “BONUS confirmed” moves in a series of screen states that stop at a fixed position in the upper left of the screen while the character image “BONUS confirmed” is reduced and displayed. The combined sound effect “Schein” is output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (a26), when the “BONUS confirmed” character image stops at a fixed position in the upper left of the screen, an effect for enhancing the “BONUS confirmed” character image is generated. The effect is an effect of emphasizing the “BONUS confirmed” character image by applying processing to the “BONUS confirmed” character image or adding another image such as a decorative image.

For example, as an example in which no effect has occurred, in the screen state shown in (a25) or (a27) described later, as shown in (* 1), only the character image “BONUS confirmed” is displayed. Absent. On the other hand, as an example in which an effect is generated, (a26)
In the screen state shown in (a28), which will be described later, as shown in (* 2), a large and small diamond-shaped decorative image is displayed superimposed on the “BONUS confirmed” character image. Thus, “B
When an effect occurs in the character image of “ONUS confirmed”, the character image of “BONUS confirmed” is decorated with a diamond-shaped decorative image, so that the player can effectively focus on the character image of “BONUS confirmed”. . Note that the effect on the “BONUS confirmed” character image is not limited to the decoration of the diamond-shaped decorative image. For example, the diamond-shaped decorative image or the “BONUS confirmed” character itself shines. Any processing may be performed as long as it emphasizes.

Further, as shown in (a26), when an effect for emphasizing the “BONUS confirmed” character image is generated, a sound effect “Killan” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect, and a bonus is provided. A character sound of “bonus confirmation” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound indicating that the player has won.

As shown in (a27), after that, the effect once disappears again and no sound corresponding to the effect is output.

Then, as shown in (a28), the effect is generated again, and the sound effect “Killan” is output from the speaker 53 as the sound corresponding to the effect.

Thereafter, in this game, the state where the effect as shown in (a27) is not generated and the state where the effect as shown in (a28) is generated are repeated.

As shown in (a29), when the stop switch is performed up to the third stop operation, in this example, the replay wins and the bonus winning is missed, and one game ends.

As described above, in the bonus confirmation effect, the character image of “BONUS confirmation” is displayed as follows. In other words, during the period shown in (a18) to (a22), “BON consisting of one image is displayed in a state where an image related to the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side.
An animation is displayed in which the character image of “US confirmed” is gradually reduced from the enlarged state toward the center of the screen. As a result, the position of the “BONUS confirmed” character image moves toward the center of the screen. Then, as shown in (a22), the reduced “BONUS confirmation” is displayed.
Is temporarily stopped at the center of the screen. After that, during the period shown in (a23) to (a25), the character image “BONUS confirmed” consisting of one image continues to shrink again.
This time, an animation that gradually reduces from the enlarged state toward the upper left of the screen is displayed. As a result, the position of the “BONUS confirmed” character image moves toward the upper left of the screen. Then, as shown in (a25), the character image of “BONUS confirmed” further reduced and displayed stops at the upper left position of the screen. After the animation of the “BONUS confirmed” character image is completed and the “BONUS confirmed” character image stops, as shown in (a26), the “BONUS confirmed” character image does not move, The character sound “bonus confirmed” is output from the speaker 53 and an effect is generated. Then (a27)
As shown in (a28) and (a28), the state in which the character image “BONUS confirmed” is stopped and no effect is generated and the state in which the effect is generated are repeated.

Such a series of sound data and image data of the bonus confirmed effect is stored in the ROM as bonus confirmed effect data, and is stored in the ROM as effect data different from the battle mission effect data. Then, on the front side where the battle mission effect is executed based on the battle mission effect data, the bonus fixed effect is executed based on the bonus determined effect data. For this reason, even during execution of the bonus confirmation effect, an image related to the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side thereof, so that it is possible to improve the interest of the game.

In addition, a common bonus confirmation effect is performed regardless of which bonus is won. Therefore, at the stage where the bonus finalization effect is performed, the player is in a situation where he does not know which bonus is won.

(Example of RB1 combination production via battle mission production)
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of the RB1 combination effect via the battle mission effect. Assume that the start switch 7 is operated after it is suggested in (a29) that the bonus has been won. In FIG. 8, the RB1 combination effects shown in (a30-1) to (a35-1) are executed both when RB1 is won and when RB1 is not won. That is, the common RB1 combination effect is executed both when the RB1 combination effect is executed as the false combination effect and when the RB1 combination effect is executed as the true combination effect.

In the example shown in FIG. 8, it is assumed that RB1 is won alone, or that a predetermined combination (replay in this example) is simultaneously won together with BB1. That is, when RB1 is elected alone, it is assumed that the RB1 combination effect is performed as a true combination effect. When a predetermined combination (replay in this example) is simultaneously won together with BB1, it is assumed that the RB1 combination effect is performed as a false combination effect.

As shown in (a30-1), the RB1 combination effect starts with the start operation as a trigger, and BGM for after bonus determination is output from the speaker 53.
The liquid crystal display 51 displays on the back side an image in which the teammate character in the battle mission effect has won the enemy character. It is displayed. In this example, winning of RB1 is suggested, and a character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” corresponding to RB1 is displayed in an enlarged manner. At this time, some of the characters “black 7 black 7 bar” (left “black 7” and right “bar”) do not fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. For this reason, at this time, it is difficult for the player to recognize the symbol combination that is urged to be derived among the big bonus and the regular bonus.

Thereafter, as shown in (a31-1), the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is gradually reduced and displayed. This makes it slightly easier to recognize the characters “black 7 black 7 bar”.

Thereafter, as shown in (a32-1), the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is gradually reduced and displayed. As a result, the “black 7” on the left and the “bar” on the right of the characters “black 7 black 7 bar” completely fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. As a result, R
The player can clearly recognize that the derivation of the B1 symbol combination is prompted.

As shown in (a32-1), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is completely within the display area, derivation of the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus suggested by the combination effect is indicated. A sound effect “Truon” is output from the speaker 53 as an urging sound.

As shown in (a33-1), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” stops at a fixed position in the upper left of the screen, an effect for enhancing the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” occurs.

For example, as an example in which no effect occurs, (a32-1) and (a34) described later
In the screen state shown in (-1), as shown in (* 3), the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is only displayed. On the other hand, as an example where an effect occurs, (a
33-1) and a screen state shown in (a35-1) described later, as shown in (* 4), a large and small diamond-shaped decorative image is superimposed on a character image of “black 7 black 7 bar”. Is displayed. As described above, when an effect is generated on the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar”, the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is decorated with a diamond-shaped decorative image. The character image of “7 black 7 bar” can be noticed. Note that the effect on the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is not limited to the decoration of the diamond-shaped decorative image.
Any processing may be applied as long as the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is emphasized, such as the “bar” character itself shines.

Further, as shown in (a33-1), when an effect for enhancing the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is generated, a sound effect “Kira” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect. Is done.

As shown in (a34-1), after that, the effect once disappears again, and the sound corresponding to the effect is not output.

Then, as shown in (a35-1), an effect is generated again, and a sound effect “Kira” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect.

Thereafter, in this game, a state where the effect as shown in (a34-1) is not generated and a state where the effect as shown in (a35-1) is generated are repeated.

As shown in (a36-1) to (a36-3), when the stop switch is performed up to the third stop operation, the presentation is controlled according to the winning situation and the winning situation, and one game is finished. To do.

As shown in (a36-1), when RB1 is elected alone and the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated at a timing at which RB1 can be won, RB1 wins and RB1 wins. Informed. Specifically, the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” disappears, and the character image “regular bonus” is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 to notify the winning of RB1.

As shown in (a36-2), if the RB1 is elected alone and the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated at timings different from the timing at which the RB1 can be won, any combination is won. Symbol combinations that are not to be derived are derived. (A36-2) is an example of a display result when the operation timing for the left reel 2L and the middle reel 2C is correct but the operation timing for the right reel 2R is not correct. As shown in (a36-2), the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” disappears at the timing when the third stop operation is performed.

As shown in (a36-3), when BB1 and replay are won simultaneously, the replay wins, the RB1 combination effect is a fake combination effect, and the RB1 combination effect performed in this game is promoted. It is suggested that it is a part of the production.
Specifically, the character image “black 7 black 7 bar” disappears and the character image “promotion” is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In the example shown in (a36-3), it is assumed that the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated at a timing at which “black 7 black 7 bar” can be derived.

In the examples shown in (a36-1) and (36-2), the RB1 combination effect from (a30-1) to (a35-1) is executed as a true combination effect suggesting a bonus during carryover. On the other hand, in the example shown in (36-3), (a30-1) to (a3
The RB1 combination effect up to 5-1) is executed as a false combination effect suggesting a different type of bonus from the carry-over bonus.

In both (a36-1) and (a36-2), RB1 is elected alone. Therefore, in (a36-1) and (a36-2), RB1 can be won if the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated in an operation mode that can win RB1 in any situation. . On the other hand, in (a36-3), since BB1 and replay are won simultaneously, even if the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated in an operation mode that can win BB1, The replay to be derived is preferentially derived.

As described above, in the RB1 combination effect, a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is displayed as follows. In other words, during the period shown in (a30-1) to (a32-1), a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” made up of a single image in a state where an image relating to the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side. However, an animation that gradually reduces from the enlarged state toward the center of the screen is displayed. As a result, the position of the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” moves toward the center of the screen. Then, as shown in (a32-1), “
The character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” stops at the center of the screen. After the animation of the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” is completed and the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” is stopped, the character image “777” is displayed as shown in (a32-1). Without moving the position, the sound “Truon” is output from the speaker 53, and as shown in (a33-1), the character image of “Black 7 Black 7 Black 7” does not move the position, Sound is output from the speaker 53 and an effect is generated. Then, as shown in (a34-1) and (a35-1), “
The state where the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is stopped and no effect is generated and the state where the effect is generated are repeated.

The sound data and image data of such a series of RB1 combination effects is RB1.
It is stored in the ROM as combination effect data, and is stored in the ROM as effect data different from the battle mission effect data. Then, on the front side where the battle mission effect is executed based on the battle mission effect data, the RB1 combination effect is executed based on the RB1 combination effect data. For this reason, even during execution of the RB1 combination effect, an image related to the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side thereof, so that it is possible to improve the interest of the game.

(This is an example of the specified role suggestion effect via the battle mission effect)
FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of the predetermined role suggesting effect via the battle mission effect. In the internal lottery, a predetermined combination suggestion effect that suggests that a predetermined combination (replay in this example) is won will be described. In the present embodiment, the predetermined combination suggestion effect is executed in the internal middle state. The sub-control unit 91 makes the control of the predetermined role suggestion effect different between a game in which the combination effect is executed and a game in which the combination effect is not executed. Specifically, (a
30-2) to (a38-2) show an example in the case where the predetermined combination suggestion effect is executed in the game that executes the RB1 combination effect. (A40)-(a44) have shown the example in the case of performing the predetermined role suggestion effect in the game which does not perform the RB1 combination effect.

The predetermined role suggestion effect is a stop switch 8L in an operation mode corresponding to the winning bonus.
, 8C, 8R can be executed in a bonus non-payable game in which reel control is performed to derive a symbol combination other than the symbol combination corresponding to the winning bonus on the winning line.

The RB1 combination effects shown in (a30-2) to (a38-2) are shown in FIG.
-1) to (a35-1) are common to the RB1 combination effects. for that reason,(
Description of the RB1 combination effects shown in (a30-2) to (a38-2) is omitted.

Assume that it is determined in (a29) that the bonus is won and then the start switch 7 is operated to execute the RB1 combination effect and the predetermined role suggestion effect. As shown in (a30-2), the RB1 combination effect is started with the start operation as a trigger, and the BGM for bonus determination is output from the speaker 53. Then, as shown in (a31-2) and (a32-2), “Black 7 Black 7 Bar”
The character image is gradually reduced and displayed.

As shown in (a32-2), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is completely within the display area, the predetermined suggestion effect starts. The liquid crystal display 51 displays an image in which the ally character in the battle mission effect wins the enemy character on the back side, and shows a symbol corresponding to the symbol combination of the predetermined role in the lower right of the screen on the front side. The predetermined role suggestion image is displayed so as to look into from the lower part of the screen.

As shown in (a33-2), in the lower right of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, the predetermined role suggestion image moves further upward, and a part of the predetermined role suggestion image becomes visible.

As shown in (a34-2), in the lower right of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, the predetermined combination suggestion image moves further upward, and the predetermined combination suggestion image is completely within the display area. In the game that executes the RB1 combination effect, as shown in (a34-2), the first predetermined role suggestion image in which the character image of “?” Is superimposed on the image of the replay symbol as the predetermined role suggestion image is predetermined. Used for role suggestion production.

As shown in (a38-2), when the stop switch is performed up to the third stop operation, the first predetermined combination suggestion image disappears, and in this example, the replay is won and one game ends. That is, the first predetermined combination suggestion image continues to be displayed until the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch from the state (a34-2) in which the first predetermined combination suggestion image is displayed in the display area.

Next, a predetermined combination suggestion effect executed in a game that does not execute the RB1 combination effect will be described.

In (a40), after it was suggested that the bonus was won in (a29),
Alternatively, the RB1 combination effect is executed in (a36-3) described above, and the RB
It is assumed that after it is suggested that one combination effect is a part of the promotion effect, it is determined that the start switch 7 is operated to execute the predetermined role suggestion effect. That is, (a4
The example shown in (0) to (a44) is an example of the predetermined role suggestion effect that is executed before and after the false combination effect is executed as a part of the promotion effect.

As shown in (a40), the predetermined role suggestion effect starts with the start operation as a trigger. At this time, if a start operation is performed after it is suggested that a bonus is won in (a29), a BGM for after bonus determination is output. On the other hand, after the RB1 combination effect is executed in (a36-3) and it is suggested that the RB1 combination effect is a part of the promotion effect, if the start operation is performed, after the bonus is determined BGM is output. On the liquid crystal display 51, an image is displayed on the back side where the ally character in the battle mission effect wins the enemy character.
A predetermined role suggestion image indicating a symbol corresponding to the symbol combination of the predetermined role is displayed so as to be looked into from the lower part of the screen.

As shown in (a41), in the lower right of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, the predetermined role suggestion image moves further upward, and a part of the predetermined role suggestion image becomes visible.

As shown in (a42), in the lower right of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, the predetermined combination suggestion image moves further upward, and the predetermined combination suggestion image is completely within the display area. In a game that does not execute a combination effect, as shown in (a42), a second predetermined role suggestion image that is an image of a replay symbol is used as the predetermined role suggestion image as the predetermined role suggestion image.

As shown in (a43), when the second predetermined role suggestion image is completely within the display area,
A sound effect “BASH” is output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (a44), when the stop switch is performed up to the third stop operation, the predetermined combination suggestion image disappears, and in this example, the replay is won and one game ends.

A series of predetermined role suggestion effect data (including sound data and image data) shown in (a32-2) to (a37-2) is stored in the ROM as predetermined role suggestion effect data, and battle mission effect data Is stored in the ROM as different presentation data. And
On the front side where the battle mission effect is executed based on the battle mission effect data, the predetermined role suggestion effect is executed based on the predetermined role suggestion effect data. For this reason, even during execution of the predetermined role suggestion effect, an image related to the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side thereof, so that the interest of the game can be improved.

(An example of BB1 combination production via battle mission production)
FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of the BB1 combination effect via the battle mission effect. In a situation where a bonus is won alone, the sub-control unit 91 executes a combination effect corresponding to the winning bonus. That is, in a game in which a winning bonus can be won by operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R in an operation mode corresponding to the winning bonus, a true combination effect is executed.

After the situation shown in the above (a29), (a36-3), (a38-2) or (a44), the start switch 7 is operated, and any lottery object combination is not won, and BB1
It is assumed that it is decided to execute the combination effect.

As shown in (a50), the combination effect starts with the start operation as a trigger. After the situation shown in (a29) where the BGM for after bonus confirmation is not output from the speaker 53, the BGM for after bonus determination is output from the speaker 53 in response to the start operation. On the other hand, in the situation where the BGM for after bonus determination is output from the speaker 53, the BGM for after bonus determination is continuously output from the speaker 53. The liquid crystal display 51 displays on the back side the image that the teammate character in the battle mission effect has won the enemy character. On the front side, the image indicating the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus that can be won is displayed on the liquid crystal display. 51 is enlarged and displayed. In this example, a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” indicating that BB1 has been won and black 7 alignment corresponding to BB1 is displayed in an enlarged manner. At this time, some of the characters “Black 7 Black 7 Black 7” (“Black 7” on both sides)
Is not within the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. For this reason, at this time, it is difficult for the player to recognize the symbol combination that is urged to be derived among the big bonus and the regular bonus.

Thereafter, as shown in (a51), the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is gradually reduced and displayed. This makes it easier to recognize the characters “black 7 black 7 black 7”.

Thereafter, as shown in (a52), the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is gradually reduced and displayed. As a result, the left and right “black 7” of the characters “black 7 black 7 black 7”
The liquid crystal display 51 is completely within the display area. Thereby, the player can clearly recognize that the derivation of the big bonus symbol combination is prompted.

As shown in (a52), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is completely within the display area, “Truon” is a sound that prompts the derivation of 7 matches corresponding to the winning bonus. Sound effects are output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (a53), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” stops at a fixed position on the upper left of the screen, an effect for enhancing the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” occurs.

For example, as an example where no effect has occurred, in the screen state shown in (a52) or (a55) described later, a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is displayed as shown in (* 5). It ’s just that. On the other hand, as an example in which an effect is generated, in the screen state shown in (a53) or (a55) described later, as shown in (* 6), a large and small diamond-shaped decorative image is “black 7”. It is displayed superimposed on the character image of “black 7 black 7”. In this way, when an effect occurs on the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7”, the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is decorated with a diamond-shaped decorative image, so that it is effective for the player. A character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” can be noted. Note that the effect on the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is not limited to the decoration of the diamond-shaped decorative image. For example, the diamond-shaped decorative image or the character “black 7 black 7 black 7” shines. Any process may be applied as long as it emphasizes the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7”.

Further, as shown in (a53), when an effect for emphasizing a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” occurs, a sound effect “kirakira kira” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect. The

As shown in (a54), after that, the effect once disappears again and no sound corresponding to the effect is output.

Then, as shown in (a55), the effect is generated again, and a sound effect “shiningly” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect.

Thereafter, in this game, the state where the effect as shown in (a54) is not generated and the state where the effect as shown in (a55) is generated are repeated.

As shown in (a56), when the third stop operation is performed, the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” disappears, and in this example, BB1 wins and one game ends.

As described above, in the BB1 combination effect, a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is displayed as follows. That is, in the period shown in (a50) to (a52), the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” consisting of one image is displayed in the center of the screen in a state where the image related to the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side. An animation that gradually reduces from an enlarged state toward is displayed. As a result, the position of the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” moves toward the center of the screen. Then, as shown in (a52), “black 7 black 7 black 7
"Stops at the center of the screen. After the animation of the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” is completed and the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” is stopped, as shown in (a52), “7
The sound “Truon” is output from the speaker 53 without moving the position of the character image “77”.

Such a series of sound data and image data of the BB1 combination effect is BB1.
It is stored in the ROM as combination effect data, and is stored in the ROM as effect data different from the battle mission effect data. Then, on the front side where the battle mission effect is executed based on the battle mission effect data, the BB1 combination effect is executed based on the BB1 combination effect data. For this reason, even during execution of the BB1 combination effect, an image related to the battle mission effect is displayed on the back side thereof, so that it is possible to improve the interest of the game.

A combination effect is provided for each type of bonus. In particular,
For each of BB1 to BB3, RB1, and RB2, combination effect data is stored in the ROM. In addition, when the one combination effect is executed as a true combination effect and when it is executed as a false combination effect, the combination effect is executed using the same combination effect data.

Here, FIG. 8 (a33-1) and (a35-1) and FIG. 10 (a53) and (
As shown in a55), when an effect occurs on a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” (
“Kirakkira” is the sound of the effect when the character image of “Black 7 Black 7 Bar” occurs (
The number of “Kira” sounds is larger than “Kira”, and the sound output time is longer. Also, the sound when an effect occurs on the character image of “Black 7 Black 7 Black 7” (“Kirakkira”)
Is louder than the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” (“Kira”). That is, the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” (“kirakira kira”) is the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” (“kira kira”). ) Is emphasized and output.

Further, as shown in FIG. 8 (* 4) and FIG. 10 (* 6), the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” corresponding to BB1 having a higher advantage than RB1 is “black 7 black 7 bar”. Than the text image of "
The number of diamond-shaped decorative images when an effect occurs is large and flashy. In other words, “Black 7
The effect for the character image of “black 7 black 7” is displayed more emphasized than the effect for the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar”.

(An example of bonus prize production via battle mission production)
FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of a bonus winning effect via a battle mission effect.
After winning the bonus at (a56) described above, the bonus winning effect is started as shown at (a60). On the liquid crystal display 51, a character image of “BIGB ONUS” that suggests winning of BB1 is displayed in an enlarged manner. At this time, some of the characters “BIG BONUS” (“B” and “S”) are outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 and are not visible. In addition, the remaining characters (“B”, “I”, “G”) of the characters “BIG BONUS”
, “O”, “N”, “U”) are not within the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

Thereafter, as shown in (a61), the character image “BIG BONUS” is gradually reduced and displayed. As a result, some characters (“B” and “S” that were outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 are displayed.
”) Is also visible in the display area, and the remaining characters (“ B ”,“ I ”,“ G ”,“ O ”,“ N ”,“ U ”) of the characters“ BIG BONUS ”are also displayed. ) Within the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. However, some characters (“B” and “S”) outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 do not fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

Thereafter, as shown in (a62), the character image “BIG BONUS” is gradually reduced and displayed. Thereby, the characters “BIG BONUS” completely fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

Thereafter, as shown in (a63), the character image of “BIG BONUS” is gradually reduced and displayed, and temporarily stops at the center of the screen at the fixed position.

As shown in (a60) to (a63), in a series of screen states in which the character image “BIG BONUS” is changed from an enlarged display state in which recognition is difficult to a reduced display state in which recognition is easy,
A sound effect “Papparapa” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound suggesting a bonus winning.

As shown in (a64), when the character image “BIG BONUS” stops at a fixed position in the center of the screen, an effect for enhancing the character image “BIG BONUS” occurs.
The effect is an effect of emphasizing the character image of “BIG BONUS” by processing the character image of “BIG BONUS” or adding another image such as a decoration image.

For example, as an example in which no effect occurs, in the screen state shown in (a63) or (a65) described later, as shown in (* 7), only the character image “BIG BONUS” is displayed. Absent. On the other hand, as an example in which an effect is generated, (a6
In the screen state shown in 4) or (a66) described later, as shown in (* 8), a large and small diamond-shaped decorative image is displayed superimposed on the character image “BIG BONUS”. In this way, when an effect occurs on a character image of “BIG BONUS”, “BIG BONU”
Since the character image of “S” is decorated with a diamond-shaped decorative image, the player can effectively “BIG B
The character image “ONUS” can be noticed. Note that the effect on the character image of “BIG BONUS” is not limited to the decoration of the diamond-shaped decorative image. Any processing may be performed as long as it emphasizes.

Further, as shown in (a64), when an effect for emphasizing the character image of “BIG BONUS” occurs, the character image is displayed, and a sound effect “Killan Killan” is generated as a sound corresponding to the effect. In addition to being output from the speaker 53, a “big bonus” character voice is output from the speaker 53 as a sound suggesting a bonus winning.

As shown in (a65), after that, the effect once disappears again and no sound corresponding to the effect is output.

Then, as shown in (a66), when the effect is generated again, a sound effect “Killan Killan” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect.

Thereafter, in this game, the state where the effect as shown in (a65) is not generated and the state where the effect as shown in (a46) is generated are repeated.

As described above, in the bonus winning effect, the character image “BIG BONUS” is displayed as follows. That is, in the period shown in (a60) to (a63),
An animation is displayed in which a character image of “BIG BONUS” composed of one image gradually decreases from an enlarged state toward the center of the screen. As a result, “BIG BON
The character image of “US” moves toward the center of the screen. Then, as shown in (a63), the reduced-size “BIG BONUS” character image stops at the center of the screen. "B
After the animation of the character image of “IG BONUS” is completed and the character image of “BIG BONUS” is stopped, as shown in (a64), the character image of “BIG BONUS” does not move, A sound “big bonus” is output from the speaker 53 and an effect is generated. After that, as shown in (a65) and (a66), the state where the character image “BIG BONUS” is stopped and no effect is generated and the state where the effect is generated are repeated.

Such a series of bonus winning effect sound data and image data is stored in the ROM as bonus winning effect data, and is stored in the ROM as effect data different from the battle mission effect data. Then, a bonus winning effect is executed based on the bonus winning effect data.

Here, the character image of “BIG BONUS” shown in (a64) and (a66) is more than the character image of “BONUS confirmed” shown in (a25) and (a27) described above in FIG.
The size is large and the proportion of the liquid crystal display 51 in the display area is large. In other words, “B
The character image “IG BONUS” is displayed more emphasized than the character image “BONUS confirmed”.

Furthermore, the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “BIG BONUS” (“Killan Killan”) is the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “BONUS confirmed” (
There are more “Kilaan” sounds than “Kiraan”), and the sound output time is longer. In addition, the sound when the effect is generated on the character image “BIG BONUS” (“Kirang Killan”) is the sound when the effect is generated on the character image “BONUS confirmed” (“
Volume is higher than "Kiraan"). In other words, the sound when the effect occurs on the character image of “BIG BONUS” (“Kirang Killan”) is “BONUS confirmed”
The sound is output with more emphasis than the sound (“Killan”) when the effect occurs on the character image.

Further, as shown in FIG. 7 (* 2) and FIG. 11 (* 8), the character image of “BIG BONUS” is a diamond-shaped decorative image when an effect occurs than the character image of “BONUS confirmed”. The number of is flashy. In other words, the effect for the character image “BIG BONUS” is displayed in a more emphasized manner than the effect for the character image “BONUS determined”.

Note that while the bonus winning effects shown in (a60) to (a66) are being executed, operations for advancing the game (for example, a start operation for the next game and an operation for setting the bet number) are possible. For this reason, when the next game is entered before the series of bonus winning effects is completed, the bonus winning effects can be ended (so-called cancellation) in the middle.

With reference to FIGS. 12 to 17, an example of various effects when the castle search mission effect is used will be specifically described.

(An example of a castle search mission)
FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of a castle search mission effect. In FIG. 12, (b1) to (b1) to (b) regardless of whether or not a bonus is won and the type of bonus that is won.
In (b6), the same effect is executed, and after that, when the bonus is not won (b
While the effects 7) to (b11) are executed, when the bonus is won, the bonus types (b13) to (b17) that are won are executed. (B7) to (b1
In the effect 1) and the effects (b13) to (b17), the effects that change on the same time axis are shown in parallel in FIG. That is, in this embodiment, (b7) to (b1
It is assumed that the production period 1) and the production periods (b13) to (b17) are the same length. In FIG. 12, the reels 2L, 2C, 2R are omitted, and the liquid crystal display 5
Although only 1 is displayed, the description will be made assuming that the winning bonus is not won in the battle effect when the bonus is won.

Further, the effects of FIGS. 12B7 to 12B11 and the effects of FIGS. 6A7 to A11 described above transition on the same time axis. That is, in the present embodiment, FIG.
2 (b7) to (b11) and the production period shown in FIGS. 6 (a7) to (a11) have the same length, and the start timing of the darkening process in (b9) is (a9) This is the same as the start timing of the dark turnover process. Also, the start timing of the darkening process is that the third stop operation has been performed, and both are common.

When the start switch 7 is operated after (h15) in FIG. 5 to start the next game, the castle search mission effect starts as shown in (b1). The liquid crystal display 51 displays an image of the character walking along the road leading to the castle. On the front side of the image, a character image of “castle search mission” suggesting the type of mission effect, and a castle search mission effect A character image of “You can safely reach the castle!” Suggesting a subtitle is displayed. When there are multiple types of castle search mission effects, the subtitles may change depending on the type, for example, “Get to the castle in time!” Or “Get the treasure chest in the castle!” . A BGM for searching for a castle is output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (b2), when a predetermined time elapses, the character image of “castle search mission” and the character image of “successfully reach the castle!” Disappear and continue to the castle displayed on the back side thereof. An image of a character walking along the road appears more clearly. The speaker 53 continues to output a castle search BGM.

As shown in (b3), when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch, an image for searching for a castle while the character sweats is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. The speaker 53 continues to output a castle search BGM.

As shown in (b4), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch, the image changes to a night scene, and an image in which the character searches for a castle while sweating is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. The speaker 53 continues to output a castle search BGM.

As shown in (b5), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an image in which the character arrives at the fork and decides which of the left and right paths to select. Is done. The speaker 53 continues to output the BGM for searching for a castle and further outputs a speech sound “Which?”.

Thereafter, as shown in (b6), an image in which the character starts walking by selecting the right path is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. The speaker 53 continues to output the BGM for searching for a castle, and further outputs a speech sound “It is right”.

When the bonus is not won, as shown in (b7), as an image suggesting that the bonus has not been won, an image in which a character falls down in the forest without flying to the castle and a bird flies is displayed on a liquid crystal display. Displayed on the device 51. Specifically, an animation is displayed in which the character shakes and a bird is flying toward the left in the center of the screen. From the speaker 53, LOS
The BGM for E is output, and further, a speech sound “stray” indicating that the character is lost is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (b8), an animation is displayed in which the character trembles while falling in the forest and tears spill further, and a bird is flying further toward the left in the center of the screen. From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for LOSE is continued, and further, the speech sound “an already limit” by the character is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (b9), the dark turnover process is started. Specifically, the animation of moving the character or bird shown in (b8) ends, the image of the character or bird stops, and the brightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 is (b8). The brightness of the image shown in is reduced, and the entire screen becomes dark. From the speaker 53, BGM for dark transition is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (b10), the lightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 is further lowered than the lightness of the image shown in (b9) by the darkening process, and the entire screen is further darkened. The character and bird images remain stationary and are in the same display state as (b9). From the speaker 53, the output of the dark background BGM is continued, and “Gurn” is used as a sound suggesting that the bonus has not been won so as to match the dark transition process from (b9) to (b10).
Is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (b11), the lightness of the image displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 is further lowered than the lightness of the image shown in (b10) by the darkening process, and the entire screen is further darkened. Note that the character and the bird are visible even when the darkening process is performed. Character and bird images remain stationary and are in the same display state as (b9) and (b10). The speaker 53 stops the sound output, and no BGM or character voice is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (b12), when the start switch 7 is operated, again (h1)
Like, return to normal game production.

On the other hand, when the bonus is won, as shown in (b13), an image indicating that the character has reached the castle is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as an image indicating that the bonus has been won.
Specifically, an animation that makes the character happy is displayed. Speaker 53
, BGM for WIN is output, and further, a speech sound “find” indicating that the character has found the castle is output.

Then, as shown in (b14), an animation that makes the character happy is displayed. From the speaker 53, the output of the BGM for WIN is continued, and further, a speech sound “Yes” by the character is output.

Thereafter, as shown in (b15), the character image “WIN” is displayed on the upper left of the liquid crystal display 51 while the character is moving. Since the bonus is won,
The darkening process as in b9) is not performed. The speaker 53 continues to output the BGM for WIN, and further outputs a speech sound “mission clear” by the character.

After that, as shown in (b16), an animation is displayed in which the confetti falls further while the character is moving. In addition, since it is a case where a bonus is won,
The darkening process as in (b10) is not performed. The speaker 53 continues to output the WIN BGM, and further outputs a sound effect “Pyrrololien” as a sound indicating that the bonus has been won.

Thereafter, as shown in (b17), an animation is displayed in which a large amount of confetti falls while the character is moving. Since the bonus is won, the darkening process as shown in (b11) is not performed. WIN BG from speaker 53
The output of M is continued, and further, a character voice “WIN” is output as a sound indicating that the bonus has been won. After that, the bonus winning is carried over, and Fig. 13 (b18)
Then, the process proceeds to a bonus finalization effect described later.

Thus, in the castle search mission effect, when the bonus is not won, the lightness of the images shown in (b9) to (b11) is set to (b15) to (b1) by performing the darkening process.
7) The brightness is lower than the brightness of the image shown in FIG. 7B. Also, as shown in (b9) to (b11), the animated image is stopped and the sound output is also stopped, which gives the player a dark impression. . This suggests to the player that no bonus has been won. On the other hand, when a bonus is won, as shown in (b15) to (b17), an image is displayed so that the image continues to move without performing dark-inversion processing, and sound output such as BGM and character voice continues. By doing so, since the sound is output for a longer period than when the bonus is not won, a bright impression is given to the player. This suggests to the player that the bonus has been won.

In order to advance the game while the effects shown in (b7) to (b11) when the bonus is not won or the effects shown in (b13) to (b17) when the bonus is won are being executed. (For example, the start operation of the next game and the setting operation of the bet number) are possible. For this reason, when a transition is made to the next game before a series of castle search mission effects are completed, the castle search mission effects can be ended (so-called cancellation) in the middle.

Even if any bonus is won, a castle search mission effect may be executed. Therefore, in the stage after the stage (b13) in which the bonus winning is suggested in the castle search mission stage, the player does not know which bonus is won. If there are multiple types of castle search mission effects, the types of bonuses may correspond to the types of castle search mission effects. In this case, the type of bonus depends on the type of castle search mission effects. The castle search mission will be performed so that is not fixed. For example, if BB1 or BB2 is won, the first castle search mission effect is executed with a high probability. If BB3 is selected, the second castle search mission effect is executed with a high probability, and RB1 or RB2 is executed. In the case of winning, the third castle search mission effect may be executed with a high probability.

(An example of bonus finalization via castle search mission)
FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of the bonus confirmation effect via the castle search mission effect.
After suggesting that the bonus was won in (b17), as shown in (b18)
Assume that the start switch 7 is operated. In the internal lottery performed at this time, it is assumed that the replay is won together with the carry-over bonus. In FIG. 13, it is assumed that the same effect is executed regardless of the type of bonus that has been won.

As shown in (b18), after the start switch 7 is operated, the bonus confirmation effect starts. On the liquid crystal display 51, an image in which the character in the castle search mission effect arrives at the castle is displayed on the back side, and a character image of “BONUS confirmed” is enlarged on the front side. At this time, some of the characters “BONUS confirmed” (“B” and “
S ") is outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 and is not visible. Also, “BO
The remaining characters (“O”, “N”, “U”, “certain”, “fix”) among the characters “NUS confirmed” do not fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in (b19), the character image “BONUS confirmed” is then gradually reduced and displayed toward the center of the screen. As a result, some characters (“B” and “S”) outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 can be barely recognized within the display area.
The remaining characters (“O”, “N”, “U”, “certain”, “fixed”) among the characters “US confirmed” fit within the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. However, some characters (“B” and “S”) that are outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 have not yet been accommodated in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 and are thus difficult to recognize.

As shown in (b20), the character image “BONUS confirmed” is further reduced and displayed gradually toward the center of the screen. This makes it easier to recognize the characters “BONUS confirmed”.

Thereafter, as shown in (b21), the character image of “BONUS confirmed” is further reduced and displayed gradually toward the center of the screen. As a result, the characters “BONUS confirmed” completely fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in (b22), the character image “BONUS confirmed” is further reduced and displayed gradually toward the center of the screen, and then temporarily stops at the center of the screen, which is a fixed position.

As shown in (b18) to (b22), it is suggested that a bonus is won in a series of screen states in which the character image of “BONUS confirmed” is changed from an enlarged display state in which recognition is difficult to a reduced display state in which recognition is easy. A sound effect “Pappara” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound.

Thereafter, as shown in (b23), the character image “BONUS confirmed” starts moving toward the upper left of the screen while being reduced again.

Then, as shown in (b24), the “BONUS confirmed” character image continues to move toward the upper left of the screen while being further reduced in size.

As shown in (b25), the “BONUS confirmed” character image is further reduced and displayed, and stops at a fixed position in the upper left of the screen. The fixed position in the upper left of the screen is a position that does not hinder the visibility of the image related to the castle search mission displayed on the back side. In this embodiment, “BON
The character image of “US confirmed” is not superimposed on various images (character, castle) of the castle search mission effect.

As shown in (b23) to (b25), the character image “BONUS confirmed” moves in a series of screen states where the character image “BONUS confirmed” stops at a fixed position in the upper left of the screen while being reduced in size. The combined sound effect “Schein” is output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (b26), when the “BONUS confirmed” character image stops at a fixed position in the upper left of the screen, an effect for enhancing the “BONUS confirmed” character image is generated. The effect is similar to the effect shown in (a26) as described above, by processing the character image of “BONUS confirmed” or adding another image such as a decoration image to “BO”.
This is an effect of emphasizing the character image of “NUS determination”.

For example, as an example in which no effect has occurred, in the screen state shown in (b25) or (b27) described later, as shown in (* 9), only the character image “BONUS confirmed” is displayed. Absent. On the other hand, as an example in which an effect is generated, (b26)
In the screen state shown in (b28), which will be described later, as shown in (* 10), a large and small diamond-shaped decorative image is displayed superimposed on the “BONUS confirmed” character image. in this way,"
When an effect occurs on the character image “BONUS confirmed”, the character image “BONUS confirmed” is decorated with a diamond-shaped decorative image, so that the player can effectively focus on the character image “BONUS confirmed”. . Note that the effect on the character image of “BONUS determination” is not limited to the decoration of the diamond-shaped decorative image. For example, the effect of the diamond-shaped decorative image or “BONUS”
Any processing may be performed as long as the character image of “BONUS confirmation” is emphasized, such as the “confirmation” character itself shines.

Further, as shown in (b26), when an effect for emphasizing the “BONUS confirmed” character image is generated, a sound effect “Killan” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect, and a bonus is provided. A character sound of “bonus confirmation” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound indicating that the player has won.

As shown in (b27), after that, the effect once disappears and the sound corresponding to the effect is not output.

Then, as shown in (b28), when the effect is generated again, a sound effect “Killan” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect.

Thereafter, in this game, the state where the effect as shown in (b27) is not generated and the state where the effect as shown in (b28) is generated are repeated.

As shown in (b29), when the stop switch is performed up to the third stop operation, in this example, the replay wins and the bonus winning is missed, and one game ends.

As described above, in the bonus confirmation effect, the character image of “BONUS confirmation” is displayed as follows. In other words, during the period shown in (b18) to (b22), the “BON” made up of one image is displayed with an image relating to the castle search mission effect displayed on the back side.
An animation is displayed in which the character image of “US confirmed” is gradually reduced from the enlarged state toward the center of the screen. As a result, the position of the “BONUS confirmed” character image moves toward the center of the screen. Then, as shown in (b22), the “BONUS confirmation” displayed in a reduced size is displayed.
Is temporarily stopped at the center of the screen. Thereafter, during the period shown in (b23) to (b25), the character image of “BONUS confirmed” made up of one image continues to shrink again.
This time, an animation that gradually reduces from the enlarged state toward the upper left of the screen is displayed. As a result, the position of the “BONUS confirmed” character image moves toward the upper left of the screen. Then, as shown in (b25), the character image “BONUS confirmed” further reduced and displayed is stopped at the upper left position of the screen. After the animation of the “BONUS confirmed” character image is completed and the “BONUS confirmed” character image stops, as shown in (b26), the “BONUS confirmed” character image does not move, The character sound “bonus confirmed” is output from the speaker 53 and an effect is generated. Then (b27)
And as shown in (b28), the state where the character image “BONUS confirmed” is stopped and no effect is generated and the state where the effect is generated are repeated.

Such a series of sound data and image data of the bonus finalization effect is stored in the ROM as bonus finalization effect data, and is stored in the ROM as effect data different from the castle search mission effect data. Then, on the front side where the castle search mission effect is executed based on the castle search mission effect data, the bonus confirmation effect is executed based on the bonus determination effect data. For this reason, even during execution of the bonus confirmation effect, an image related to the castle search mission effect is displayed on the back side thereof, so that the interest of the game can be improved.

Further, in the bonus confirmation effect via the castle search mission effect, the same bonus confirmation effect data as the bonus confirmation effect via the battle mission effect shown in FIG. 7 is used. For this reason, even if it goes through any of the battle mission effect and the castle search mission effect, the effect form of the bonus confirmation effect is common to both. Thereby, it is possible to easily indicate to the player that the bonus has been won.

In addition, a common bonus confirmation effect is performed regardless of which bonus is won. Therefore, at the stage where the bonus finalization effect is performed, the player is in a situation where he does not know which bonus is won.

(An example of RB1 combination production via castle search mission production)
FIG. 14 is a diagram illustrating an example of the RB1 combination effect via the castle search mission effect. Assume that the start switch 7 is operated after it is suggested that the bonus is won in (b29) described above. In FIG. 14, the RB1 combination effects shown in (b30-1) to (b35-1) are executed both when RB1 is won and when RB1 is not won. That is, the common RB1 combination effect is executed both when the RB1 combination effect is executed as the false combination effect and when the RB1 combination effect is executed as the true combination effect.

In the example shown in FIG. 14, it is assumed that RB1 is won alone or that a predetermined combination (replay in this example) is simultaneously won together with BB1. That is, when RB1 is elected alone, it is assumed that the RB1 combination effect is performed as a true combination effect. When a predetermined combination (replay in this example) is simultaneously won together with BB1, it is assumed that the RB1 combination effect is performed as a false combination effect.

As shown in (b30-1), the RB1 combination effect is started with the start operation as a trigger, and the BGM for bonus confirmation is output from the speaker 53.
The liquid crystal display 51 displays on the back side an image in which the character in the castle search mission effect has arrived at the castle. On the front side, an image showing the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus that can be won is displayed on the liquid crystal display. 51 is enlarged and displayed. In this example, winning of RB1 is suggested, and a character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” corresponding to RB1 is displayed in an enlarged manner. At this time,
Some of the characters “black 7 black 7 bar” (left “black 7” and right “bar”) do not fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. For this reason, at this time, it is difficult for the player to recognize the symbol combination that is urged to be derived among the big bonus and the regular bonus.

Thereafter, as shown in (b31-1), the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is gradually reduced and displayed. This makes it slightly easier to recognize the characters “black 7 black 7 bar”.

Thereafter, as shown in (b32-1), the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is gradually reduced and displayed. As a result, the “black 7” on the left and the “bar” on the right of the characters “black 7 black 7 bar” completely fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. As a result, R
The player can clearly recognize that the derivation of the B1 symbol combination is prompted.

As shown in (b32-1), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is completely within the display area, “Truon” is a sound that prompts the derivation of the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus that can be won. Is output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (b33-1), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” stops at a fixed position in the upper left of the screen, an effect for enhancing the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” occurs.

For example, as an example in which no effect is generated, (b32-1) and (b34) described later are used.
In the screen state shown in (-1), as shown in (* 11), only the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is displayed. On the other hand, as an example of an effect, (
In the screen state shown in (b33-1) or (b35-1) to be described later, as shown in (* 12), a large and small diamond-shaped decorative image is superimposed on a character image of “black 7 black 7 bar”. Is displayed.
Thus, when an effect occurs on a character image of “black 7 black 7 bar”, “black 7 black 7 bar”
The character image is decorated with a diamond-shaped decoration image.
It is possible to draw attention to the character image. Note that the effect on the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is not limited to the decoration of the diamond-shaped decorative image.
Any processing may be performed as long as the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is emphasized, such as the character of “black 7 bar” shines.

Further, as shown in (b33-1), when an effect for enhancing the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is generated, a sound effect “Kira” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect. Is done.

As shown in (b34-1), after that, the effect once disappears and the sound corresponding to the effect is not output.

Then, as shown in (b35-1), an effect is generated again, and a sound effect “Kira” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect.

Thereafter, in this game, the state where the effect as shown in (b34-1) is not generated and the state where the effect as shown in (b35-1) is generated are repeated.

As shown in (b36-1) to (b36-3), when the stop switch is performed up to the third stop operation, the presentation is controlled according to the winning situation and the winning situation, and one game is finished. To do.

(B36-1) As shown in (b36-1), when RB1 is elected alone and the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated at a timing at which RB1 can be won, RB1 wins and RB1 wins. Informed. Specifically, the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” disappears, and the character image “regular bonus” is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 to notify the winning of RB1.

(B36-2) As shown in (b36-2), if the RB1 is elected alone and the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated at timings different from the timing at which the RB1 can be won, any combination is won. Symbol combinations that are not to be derived are derived. (B36-2) is an example of a display result when the operation timing for the left reel 2L and the middle reel 2C is correct but the operation timing for the right reel 2R is not correct. As shown in (b36-2), the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” disappears at the timing when the third stop operation is performed.

As shown in (b36-3), when BB1 and replay are won simultaneously, the replay wins, the RB1 combination effect is a fake combination effect, and the RB1 combination effect performed in this game is promoted. It is suggested that it is a part of the production.
Specifically, the character image “black 7 black 7 bar” disappears and the character image “promotion” is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In the example shown in (b36-3), it is assumed that the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated at a timing at which “black 7 black 7 bar” can be derived.

In the examples shown in (b36-1) and (36-2), the RB1 combination effects from (b30-1) to (b35-1) are executed as true combination effects that suggest a carry-over bonus. On the other hand, in the example shown in (36-3), (b30-1) to (b3
The RB1 combination effect up to 5-1) is executed as a false combination effect suggesting a different type of bonus from the carry-over bonus.

In both (b36-1) and (b36-2), RB1 is elected alone. Therefore, in (b36-1) and (b36-2), RB1 can be won if the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R is operated in an operation mode that can win RB1 in any situation. . On the other hand, in (b36-3), since BB1 and replay are won at the same time, even if the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated in an operation mode capable of winning BB1, The replay to be derived is preferentially derived.

As described above, in the RB1 combination effect, a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is displayed as follows. That is, during the period shown in (a30-1) to (a32-1), the characters “black 7 black 7 black 7” made up of a single image are displayed in a state where an image related to the castle search mission effect is displayed on the back side. An animation is displayed in which the image is gradually reduced from the enlarged state toward the center of the screen. As a result, the position of the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” moves toward the center of the screen. Then, as shown in (a32-1), “
The character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” stops at the center of the screen. After the animation of the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” is completed and the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” is stopped, the character image “777” is displayed as shown in (a32-1). Without moving the position, the sound “Truon” is output from the speaker 53, and as shown in (a33-1), the character image of “Black 7 Black 7 Black 7” does not move the position, Sound is output from the speaker 53 and an effect is generated. Then, as shown in (a34-1) and (a35-1), “
The state where the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is stopped and no effect is generated and the state where the effect is generated are repeated.

The sound data and image data of such a series of RB1 combination effects is RB1.
It is stored in the ROM as combination effect data, and is stored in the ROM as effect data different from the castle search mission effect data. Then, on the front side where the castle search mission effect is executed based on the castle search mission effect data, the RB1 combination effect is executed based on the RB1 combination effect data. For this reason, even during execution of the RB1 combination effect, an image related to the castle search mission effect is displayed on the back side thereof, so that the interest of the game can be improved.

Furthermore, in the RB1 combination effect via the castle search mission effect, the same RB1 combination effect data as the RB1 combination effect via the battle mission effect shown in FIG. 8 is used. For this reason, even if it goes through any of the battle mission effect and the castle search mission effect, the effect mode of the RB1 combination effect is common to both. Thereby, it is possible to easily suggest to the player the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus that can be won.

In addition, although RB1 combination production was mentioned as an example, in any combination production of RB2, BB1 to BB3, the same combination production data is used regardless of whether the battle mission production or the castle search mission production is passed. It is done.

(This is an example of the specified role suggestion effect via the castle search mission effect)
FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating an example of the predetermined role suggesting effect via the castle search mission effect. In the internal lottery, a predetermined combination suggestion effect that suggests that a predetermined combination (replay in this example) is won will be described. In the present embodiment, the predetermined combination suggestion effect is executed in the internal middle state. The sub-control unit 91 makes the control of the predetermined role suggestion effect different between a game in which the combination effect is executed and a game in which the combination effect is not executed. Specifically, (
b30-2) to (b38-2) show an example in the case where the predetermined combination suggesting effect is executed in the game in which the RB1 combination effect is executed. (B40) to (b44) are RB1
An example in which a predetermined combination suggestion effect is executed in a game where a combination effect is not executed is shown.

The predetermined role suggestion effect is a stop switch 8L in an operation mode corresponding to the winning bonus.
, 8C, 8R can be executed in a bonus non-payable game in which reel control is performed to derive a symbol combination other than the symbol combination corresponding to the winning bonus on the winning line.

The RB1 combination effects shown in (b30-2) to (b38-2) are shown in FIG.
This is common with the RB1 combination effects shown in (0-1) to (b35-1). for that reason,
Description of the RB1 combination effects shown in (b30-2) to (b38-2) is omitted.

It is assumed that after it is suggested that the bonus is won in (b29) described above, it is determined that the start switch 7 is operated to execute the RB1 combination effect and the predetermined role suggestion effect. As shown in (b30-2), with the start operation as an opportunity, the RB1 combination effect is started, and the BGM for bonus determination is output from the speaker 53. Thereafter, as shown in (b31-2) and (b32-2), the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is gradually reduced and displayed.

As shown in (b32-2), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” is completely within the display area, the predetermined suggestion effect starts. The liquid crystal display 51 displays on the back side an image in which the ally character in the castle search mission effect has won the enemy character. In the lower right of the screen on the front side, the symbol corresponding to the symbol combination of the predetermined role is displayed. The predetermined role suggestion image to be displayed is displayed so as to look into from the lower part of the screen.

As shown in (b33-2), at the lower right of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, the predetermined role suggestion image moves further upward, and a part of the predetermined role suggestion image becomes visible.

As shown in (b34-2), in the lower right of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, the predetermined combination suggestion image moves further upward, and the predetermined combination suggestion image is completely within the display area. In the game that executes the RB1 combination effect, as shown in (b34-2), the first predetermined combination suggestion image in which the character image of “?” Is superimposed on the image of the replay symbol is predetermined as the predetermined combination suggestion image. Used for role suggestion production.

As shown in (b38-2), when the stop switch is performed up to the third stop operation, the first predetermined combination suggestion image disappears, and in this example, the replay is won and one game ends. That is, the first predetermined combination suggestion image continues to be displayed until the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch from the state (b34-2) in which the first predetermined combination suggestion image is displayed in the display area.

Next, a predetermined combination suggestion effect executed in a game that does not execute the RB1 combination effect will be described.

In (b40), after it was suggested that the bonus was won in (b29),
Alternatively, the RB1 combination effect is executed in (b36-3) described above, and the RB
It is assumed that after it is suggested that one combination effect is a part of the promotion effect, it is determined that the start switch 7 is operated to execute the predetermined role suggestion effect. That is, (b4
The example shown in (0) to (b44) is an example of the predetermined role suggestion effect executed before and after the false combination effect is executed as a part of the promotion effect.

As shown in (b40), the predetermined role suggesting effect starts with the start operation as a trigger. At this time, if the start operation is performed after it is suggested that the bonus is won in (b29), the BGM for determining the bonus is output. On the other hand, after the RB1 combination effect is executed in (b36-3), and it is suggested that the RB1 combination effect is a part of the promotion effect, if the start operation is performed, the bonus is continuously determined. BGM is output. On the liquid crystal display 51, an image in which the ally character in the castle search mission effect wins the enemy character is displayed on the back side.
A predetermined role suggestion image indicating a symbol corresponding to the symbol combination of the predetermined role is displayed so as to be looked into from the lower part of the screen.

As shown in (b41), in the lower right of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, the predetermined combination suggestion image further moves upward, and a part of the predetermined combination suggestion image becomes visible.

As shown in (b42), in the lower right of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, the predetermined combination suggestion image moves further upward, and the predetermined combination suggestion image is completely within the display area. In a game that does not execute the combination effect, as shown in (b42), the second predetermined role suggestion image that is an image of the replay symbol is used as the predetermined role suggestion effect as the predetermined role suggestion image.

As shown in (b43), when the second predetermined role suggestion image is completely within the display area,
A sound effect “BASH” is output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (b44), when the stop switch is performed up to the third stop operation, the predetermined combination suggestion image disappears, and in this example, the replay is won and one game ends.

A series of effect data (including sound data and image data) of the predetermined role suggestion effect shown in (b32-2) to (b37-2) is stored in the ROM as the predetermined role suggestion effect data, and the castle search mission effect It is stored in the ROM as effect data different from the data. And
On the front side where the castle search mission effect is executed based on the castle search mission effect data, the predetermined role suggestion effect is executed based on the predetermined role suggestion effect data. For this reason, even during execution of the predetermined role suggestion effect, an image related to the castle search mission effect is displayed on the back side thereof, so that the interest of the game can be improved.

Further, in the predetermined suggestion effect via the castle search mission effect, the same predetermined suggestion effect data as the predetermined suggestion effect via the battle mission effect shown in FIG. 9 is used. For this reason, even if it goes through any of a battle mission production and a castle search mission production, the production mode of a predetermined suggestion production is common to both. Thereby, it is possible to easily indicate to the player the type of the predetermined role that has been won.

(An example of BB1 combination production via castle search mission production)
FIG. 16 is a diagram illustrating an example of the BB1 combination effect via the castle search mission effect. In a situation where a bonus is won alone, the sub-control unit 91 executes a combination effect corresponding to the winning bonus. That is, in a game in which a winning bonus can be won by operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R in an operation mode corresponding to the winning bonus, a true combination effect is executed.

After the situation shown in (b29), (b36-3), (b38-2), or (b44) described above, the start switch 7 is operated, and any of the lottery roles is not won, and BB1
It is assumed that it is decided to execute the combination effect.

As shown in (b50), the combination effect starts with the start operation as a trigger. After the situation shown in (b29) where the BGM for after bonus determination is not output from the speaker 53, the BGM for after bonus determination is output from the speaker 53 in response to the start operation. On the other hand, in the situation where the BGM for after bonus determination is output from the speaker 53, the BGM for after bonus determination is continuously output from the speaker 53. The liquid crystal display 51 displays on the back side an image in which the ally character in the castle search mission effect wins the enemy character, and on the front side, an image showing the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus that can be won is displayed on the liquid crystal display. The device 51 is enlarged and displayed. In this example, a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” indicating that BB1 has been won and black 7 alignment corresponding to BB1 is displayed in an enlarged manner. At this time, some of the characters “Black 7 Black 7 Black 7” (“Black 7” on both sides)
Is not within the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. For this reason, at this time, it is difficult for the player to recognize the symbol combination that is urged to be derived among the big bonus and the regular bonus.

Thereafter, as shown in (b51), the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is gradually reduced and displayed. This makes it easier to recognize the characters “black 7 black 7 black 7”.

Thereafter, as shown in (b52), the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is gradually reduced and displayed. As a result, the left and right “black 7” of the characters “black 7 black 7 black 7”
The liquid crystal display 51 is completely within the display area. Thereby, the player can clearly recognize that the derivation of the big bonus symbol combination is prompted.

As shown in (b52), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is completely within the display area, “Truon” is a sound that prompts the derivation of 7 matches corresponding to the winning bonus. Sound effects are output from the speaker 53.

As shown in (b53), when the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” stops at a fixed position in the upper left of the screen, an effect for enhancing the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” occurs.

For example, as an example in which no effect occurs, in the screen state shown in (b52) or (b55) described later, a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is displayed as shown in (* 13). It ’s just that. On the other hand, as an example in which an effect is generated, (b53)
In the screen state shown in (b55), which will be described later, as shown in (* 14), a large and small diamond-shaped decorative image is displayed superimposed on a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7”. In this way, when an effect occurs on the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7”, the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is decorated with a diamond-shaped decorative image, so that it is effective for the player. A character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” can be noted. Note that the effect on the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is not limited to the decoration of the diamond-shaped decorative image. For example, the diamond-shaped decorative image or the character “black 7 black 7 black 7” shines. Any process may be applied as long as it emphasizes the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7”.

Further, as shown in (b53), when an effect for enhancing the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” occurs, a sound effect “kirakira kira” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect. The

As shown in (b54), after that, the effect once disappears again and no sound corresponding to the effect is output.

Then, as shown in (b55), the effect is generated again, and a sound effect “shiningly” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect.

Thereafter, in this game, the state where the effect as shown in (b54) is not generated and the state where the effect as shown in (b55) is generated are repeated.

As shown in (b56), when the third stop operation is performed, the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” disappears, and in this example, BB1 wins and one game ends.

As described above, in the BB1 combination effect, a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is displayed as follows. That is, during the period shown in (b50) to (b52), a character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” consisting of one image is displayed on the screen in a state where an image relating to the castle search mission effect is displayed on the back side. An animation that gradually reduces from an enlarged state toward the center is displayed. As a result, the position of the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” moves toward the center of the screen. Then, as shown in (b52), “black 7 black 7 black 7
"Stops at the center of the screen. After the animation of the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” is completed and the character image “black 7 black 7 black 7” is stopped, as shown in (b52), “7
The sound “Truon” is output from the speaker 53 without moving the position of the character image “77”.

Such a series of sound data and image data of the BB1 combination effect is BB1.
It is stored in the ROM as combination effect data, and is stored in the ROM as effect data different from the castle search mission effect data. Then, on the front side where the castle searching mission effect is executed based on the castle searching mission effect data, the BB1 combination effect is executed based on the BB1 combination effect data. For this reason, even during execution of the BB1 combination effect, an image related to the castle search mission effect is displayed on the back side thereof, so that the interest of the game can be improved.

In the BB1 combination effect via the castle search mission effect, the same BB1 combination effect data as the BB1 combination effect via the battle mission effect shown in FIG. 10 is used. For this reason, even if it goes through any of a battle mission production and a castle search mission production, the production mode of a BB1 combination production is common to both. Thereby, it is possible to easily suggest to the player the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus that can be won.

A combination effect is provided for each type of bonus. In particular,
For each of BB1 to BB3, RB1, and RB2, combination effect data is stored in the ROM. In addition, when the one combination effect is executed as a true combination effect and when it is executed as a false combination effect, the combination effect is executed using the same combination effect data. In addition, the combination effect is performed using the combination effect data common to both cases, whether through the castle search mission effect or the battle mission effect.

Here, as shown in FIGS. 14 (b33-1) and (b35-1) and FIGS. 16 (b53) and (b55), the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7”. (“Kirakkira”) has more “Kira” than the sound (“Kira”) when an effect occurs on the character image of “Black 7 Black 7 Bar”, and the output time of the sound. Is long.
Also, the sound when the effect occurs on the character image of “Black 7 Black 7 Black 7” (“Kirakkirara”
) Has a louder volume than the sound (“Kira”) when the effect is generated on the character image of “Black 7 Black 7 Bar”. That is, the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” (“kirakira kira”) is the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” (“kira kira”). ) Is emphasized and output.

Further, as shown in FIG. 14 (* 12) and FIG. 16 (* 14), the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” corresponding to BB1 having a higher advantage than RB1 is “black 7 black 7 bar”. The number of diamond-shaped decorative images when the effect is generated is larger than the character image “”. That means
The effect on the character image of “black 7 black 7 black 7” is displayed more emphasized than the effect on the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar”.

(An example of bonus prize production via castle search mission production)
FIG. 17 is a diagram illustrating an example of a bonus winning effect via a castle search mission effect.
After winning the bonus in (b56) described above, the bonus winning effect is started as shown in (b60). On the liquid crystal display 51, a character image of “BIGB ONUS” that suggests winning of BB1 is displayed in an enlarged manner. At this time, some of the characters “BIG BONUS” (“B” and “S”) are outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 and are not visible. In addition, the remaining characters (“B”, “I”, “G”) of the characters “BIG BONUS”
, “O”, “N”, “U”) are not within the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

Thereafter, as shown in (b61), the character image of “BIG BONUS” is gradually reduced and displayed. As a result, some characters (“B” and “S” that were outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 are displayed.
”) Is also visible in the display area, and the remaining characters (“ B ”,“ I ”,“ G ”,“ O ”,“ N ”,“ U ”) of the characters“ BIG BONUS ”are also displayed. ) Within the display area of the liquid crystal display 51. However, some characters (“B” and “S”) outside the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 do not fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

Thereafter, as shown in (b62), the character image of “BIG BONUS” is gradually reduced and displayed. Thereby, the characters “BIG BONUS” completely fit in the display area of the liquid crystal display 51.

Thereafter, as shown in (b63), the character image of “BIG BONUS” is further reduced and displayed, and temporarily stops at the center of the screen at the fixed position.

As shown in (b60) to (b63), in a series of screen states in which the character image “BIG BONUS” is changed from an enlarged display state in which recognition is difficult to a reduced display state in which recognition is easy,
A sound effect “Papparapa” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound suggesting a bonus winning.

As shown in (b64), when the character image of “BIG BONUS” stops at a fixed position in the center of the screen, an effect for enhancing the character image of “BIG BONUS” occurs.
The effect is an effect of emphasizing the character image of “BIG BONUS” by processing the character image of “BIG BONUS” or adding another image such as a decoration image.

For example, as an example where no effect has occurred, in the screen state shown in (b63) or (b65) described later, as shown in (* 15), only the character image “BIG BONUS” is displayed. Absent. On the other hand, as an example where an effect occurs, (b
64) and a screen state shown in (b66) described later, as shown in (* 16), a large and small diamond-shaped decorative image is displayed superimposed on the character image “BIG BONUS”. Thus, when an effect occurs on the character image of “BIG BONUS”, “BIG BONS”
Since the character image of “NUS” is decorated with a diamond-shaped decorative image,
The character image “BONUS” can be noticed. Note that the effect on the character image of “BIG BONUS” is not limited to the decoration of the diamond-shaped decorative image. For example, the diamond-shaped decorative image or the character of “BIG BONUS” shines.
Any processing may be performed as long as the character image is emphasized.

Further, as shown in (b64), when an effect for emphasizing the character image of “BIG BONUS” occurs, the character image is displayed, and a sound effect “Killan Killan” is generated as a sound corresponding to the effect. In addition to being output from the speaker 53, a “big bonus” character voice is output from the speaker 53 as a sound suggesting a bonus winning.

As shown in (b65), after that, the effect once disappears again and no sound corresponding to the effect is output.

Then, as shown in (b66), when the effect is generated again, a sound effect “Killan Killan” is output from the speaker 53 as a sound corresponding to the effect.

Thereafter, in this game, the state where the effect as shown in (b65) is not generated and the state where the effect as shown in (b46) is generated are repeated.

As described above, in the bonus winning effect, the character image “BIG BONUS” is displayed as follows. That is, in the period shown in (b60) to (b63),
An animation is displayed in which a character image of “BIG BONUS” composed of one image gradually decreases from an enlarged state toward the center of the screen. As a result, “BIG BON
The character image of “US” moves toward the center of the screen. Then, as shown in (b63), the reduced-sized “BIG BONUS” character image stops at the center of the screen. "B
After the animation of the character image of “IG BONUS” is completed and the character image of “BIG BONUS” is stopped, as shown in (b64), the character image of “BIG BONUS” does not move, A sound “big bonus” is output from the speaker 53 and an effect is generated. After that, as shown in (b65) and (b66), the character image “BIG BONUS” is stopped and the state where the effect is not generated and the state where the effect is generated are repeated.

Such a series of bonus winning effect sound data and image data is stored in the ROM as bonus winning effect data, and is stored in the ROM as effect data different from the castle searching mission effect data. Then, a bonus winning effect is executed based on the bonus winning effect data.

Further, in the bonus winning effect via the castle search mission effect, the same bonus winning effect data as the bonus winning effect via the battle mission effect shown in FIG. 11 is used. For this reason, even if it goes through any of a battle mission production and a castle search mission production, the production mode of a bonus prize production is common to both. This
A bonus prize can be suggested to the player in an easy-to-understand manner.

Here, the character image of “BIG BONUS” shown in (b64) and (b66) is larger in size than the character image of “BONUS determination” shown in (b25) and (b27) described above with reference to FIG. The ratio occupied in the display area of the display 51 is large. In other words,
The character image “BIG BONUS” is displayed more emphasized than the character image “BONUS confirmed”.

Furthermore, the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “BIG BONUS” (“Killan Killan”) is the sound when the effect is generated on the character image of “BONUS confirmed” (
There are more “Kilaan” sounds than “Kiraan”), and the sound output time is longer. In addition, the sound when the effect is generated on the character image “BIG BONUS” (“Kirang Killan”) is the sound when the effect is generated on the character image “BONUS confirmed” (“
Volume is higher than "Kiraan"). In other words, the sound when the effect occurs on the character image of “BIG BONUS” (“Kirang Killan”) is “BONUS confirmed”
The sound is output with more emphasis than the sound (“Killan”) when the effect occurs on the character image.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 13 (* 10) and FIG. 17 (* 16), “BIG BONU
The character image of “S” is more flashy than the character image of “BONUS confirmed”, because the number of diamond-shaped decorative images when an effect occurs is large. In other words, the effect for the character image “BIG BONUS” is displayed in a more emphasized manner than the effect for the character image “BONUS determined”.

Note that while the bonus winning effects shown in (b60) to (b66) are being executed, operations for advancing the game (for example, a start operation for the next game or a setting operation for the bet number) are possible. For this reason, when the next game is entered before the series of bonus winning effects is completed, the bonus winning effects can be ended (so-called cancellation) in the middle.

[Example of promotion production]
An example of the promotion effect will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. 8 to 10 and FIGS. 14 to 16. The following three flows are illustrated in FIGS. 8 to 10 and FIGS. 14 to 16 as a series of promotions.

(1) The false combination effect is executed in the game after the bonus confirmation effect is executed, and then the true combination effect is executed. Specifically, when the battle mission effect is passed, (a30-1) to (a35-1), (a36-3), (a50) to (a
It is a series of effects performed in the order of 56). If you go through the castle search mission direction, (b
30-1) to (b35-1), (b36-3), and (b50) to (b56).

(2) The false combination effect and the predetermined role suggestion effect are executed in the game after the bonus confirmation effect is executed, and then the true combination effect is executed. Specifically, when going through the battle mission effect, (a30-2) to (a38-2), (a50) to (
a series of effects performed in the order of a56). If you go through the Castle Search Mission Direction,
It is a series of effects performed in the order of b30-2) to (b38-2) and (b50) to (b56).

(3) The false combination effect is executed in the game after the bonus finalized effect is executed, and then the predetermined combination suggesting effect is executed, and then the true combination effect is executed. Specifically, when a battle mission effect is passed, (a30-1) to (a35-1), (a
36-3), (a40) to (a44), and (a50) to (a56) are a series of effects performed in this order. When going through the castle search mission production, (b30-1) to (b35-1),
It is a series of effects performed in the order of (b36-3), (b40) to (b44), (b50) to (b56).

As shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 14, the case where the RB1 combination effect is executed as the false combination effect, the case where the RB1 combination effect is executed as the false combination effect, and the case where the RB1 combination effect is executed as the true combination effect. The effect mode of the RB1 combination effect remains the same when executed. Therefore, in the situation of FIG. 8 (a30-1) to (a35-1) in which the RB1 combination effect has been executed, or the situation of FIGS. 14 (b30-1) to (b35-1), the player can play the RB1 combination effect. Is not executed as a false combination effect, or whether the RB1 combination effect is executed as a true combination effect.

Thereafter, when the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R is operated in an operation mode corresponding to RB1 that is urged to be derived by the RB1 combination effect, when the RB1 is won, that is, the RB1 combination effect is executed as a true combination effect. If it is, RB1 wins as shown in FIG. 8 (a36-1) or FIG. 14 (b36-1). On the other hand, when RB1 is not won, that is, when the RB1 combination effect is executed as a false combination effect, FIG. 8 (a36-3) or FIG. 14 (b36-3)
RB1 does not win as shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 8 (a36-3) or FIG. 14 (b36-3), the player operates RB1 even though the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated in the operation mode corresponding to RB1.
Since the symbol combination different from the symbol combination corresponding to is derived on the winning line, it can be recognized that the RB1 combination effect being executed is a fake combination effect. As a result, it can be recognized that a bonus other than RB1 is won.

In the present embodiment, in a situation where it is possible to recognize that another bonus that is not RB1 is won, a character image that suggests that a bonus advantageous to RB1 called “promotion” is won. It is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. By displaying the character image “promotion”, it is easy to understand that another bonus other than RB1 is won. For example, the player can easily determine whether he / she did not win RB1 due to a mistake in the operation mode, or whether the RB1 combination effect is a false combination effect and the RB1 combination effect is being executed as part of the promotion effect. Can grasp.

[Direction processing during carry-over]
The sub CPU 91a executes the effect processing during carry-over for determining the presence / absence of execution of the combination effect and the predetermined role suggestion effect performed in the post-confirmation game after the bonus confirmation effect is performed, and the effect mode. The carry-in effect process is performed when the sub-control unit 91 receives a command indicating the internal lottery result sent from the main control unit 41, and is performed in each game until the bonus state is entered. In addition, in the effect processing during carryover, the effect processing during carryover is executed in common even when the bonus confirmed effect is performed via the battle mission effect and when the bonus confirmed effect is performed via the castle search mission effect. FIG. 18 is a flowchart of the effect processing during carryover.

In step S11, the sub CPU 91a determines whether or not a predetermined combination is won. Here, the predetermined combination is a combination other than the rare combination and the special combination.

If it is determined that the predetermined combination is not won (NO in step S11), the sub CPU
91a determines execution of a true combination effect in step S12, and complete | finishes a process. For example, the sub CPU 91a determines the execution of the true combination effect when the cherry that is a rare combination is won in the internal state, or when no lottery target combination is won.

If it is determined that the predetermined combination is won (YES in step S11), the sub CPU
91a switches to step S13. Here, when the carry-over effect process is being executed, one of the special roles of BB1 to BB3, RB1, and RB2 is won. Therefore, winning the predetermined combination means that the predetermined combination derived in preference to the bonus being won is won. In the present embodiment, the predetermined combination is a combination that wins regardless of the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R. Therefore, winning the predetermined combination means an operation mode corresponding to the bonus being won. And stop switch 8L,
Even when 8C and 8R are operated, a symbol combination other than the symbol combination corresponding to the winning bonus is derived on the winning line LN.

In step S13, the sub CPU 91a determines whether or not a true combination effect has already been executed. For example, the sub CPU 91a temporarily stores information indicating that the true combination effect is executed in the RAM 91c of the sub control unit 91 in the game for executing the true combination effect, and stores the information until the bonus state is entered.

If it is determined that the true combination effect has already been executed (YES in step S13), the sub CPU 91a determines execution of the predetermined combination suggestion effect in step S15 and ends the process.

If it is determined that the true combination effect has not yet been executed (YES in step S13), the sub CPU 91a switches to step S14. In step S14, the sub CPU 91a determines whether or not a false combination effect has already been executed. For example, the sub CPU 91a temporarily stores information indicating that the false combination effect has been executed in the RAM 91c of the sub control unit 91 in a game for executing the false combination effect, and stores the information until the bonus state is entered.

If it is determined that the false combination effect has already been executed (YES in step S13), the sub CPU 91a determines execution of the predetermined combination suggestion effect in step S15 and ends the process. Here, the case where the false combination effect is already executed means that the combination effect is executed as a part of the promotion effect.

If it is determined that the false combination effect has not yet been executed (YES in step S14), the sub CPU 91a switches to step S16. In step S16, an effect to be executed is determined according to the effect determination table, and the process ends.

[Direction determination table]
19 and 20 are diagrams showing an effect determination table. The effect determination table shown in FIG. 19 is a table for determining which of the false combination effects and the predetermined role suggestion effects is to be executed. The effect determination table shown in FIG. 20 is a table for determining the type of combination effect to be executed as a false combination effect when execution of the false combination effect is determined.

As shown in FIG. 19, the sub CPU 91a executes a false combination effect according to the number of games that have elapsed since the bonus finalization effect is executed and the type of bonus that has been won, or performs a predetermined role suggestion effect. Decide what to do.

As shown in FIG. 19, when RB1 and RB2 having a low advantage are won, the false combination effect is not executed. That is, when RB1 and RB2 are won, the promotion effect is not executed.

Further, as can be seen by comparing BB1 to BB3, the execution of the false combination effect is determined with different probabilities according to the type of the winning BB. That is, the promotion effect is executed with different probabilities according to the type of BB that has been won.

Also, as you can see by comparing the number of games that have passed since the bonus finalization effect was executed,
The execution of the false combination effect is determined with different probabilities according to the number of games that have been struck. That is, the promotion effect is executed with different probabilities according to the number of games that have passed since the bonus finalization effect was executed.

The effect determination table shown in FIG. 20 is a table for determining the type of combination effect to be executed as a false combination effect when execution of the false combination effect is determined. That is, in accordance with the effect determination table shown in FIG.
When 1a determines execution of the false combination effect, the sub CPU 91a determines the type of combination effect to be executed according to the effect determination table shown in FIG.

The type of combination effect is determined according to the winning combination. Specifically, when BB1 is won, the sub CPU 91a determines the execution of the RB1 combination effect with a probability of 90%, and determines the execution of the RB2 combination effect with a probability of 10%. On the other hand, BB2
In the case of winning, the sub CPU 91a determines the execution of the RB2 combination effect with a probability of 90%, and determines the execution of the RB1 combination effect with a probability of 10%. Also,
When BB3 is won, the sub CPU 91a determines execution of the RB1 combination effect with a probability of 50% and determines execution of the RB2 combination effect with a probability of 50%.

Here, as shown in FIG. 3, when the symbol combination constituting RB1 is compared with the symbol combination constituting RB2, the symbol combination constituting RB1 constitutes BB1 compared to the symbol combination constituting RB2. There are many symbols in common with symbol combinations. on the other hand,
The symbol combination constituting RB2 is BB2 compared to the symbol combination constituting RB1.
There are many symbols in common with the symbol combinations that make up

That is, when BB1 is won, the combination effect corresponding to RB1 having many symbol combinations common to the symbol combinations constituting BB1 is executed with a higher probability than the combination effect corresponding to RB2. On the other hand, if BB2 is won, BB2
The combination effect corresponding to RB2 that has many symbol combinations in common with the symbol combination that constitutes is executed with a higher probability than the combination effect corresponding to RB1.

[Variation of production after fake combination production]
FIG. 21 is a diagram illustrating a modification example of the effect after the false combination effect. The example shown in FIG. 21 is a situation where the RB1 combination effect is executed after passing through the battle effect. Here, the production contents shown in FIGS. 21 (a30-1) to (a35-1) are shown in FIG. 8 (a30-).
1) to (a35-1) in common with the production contents, FIG. 21 (a36-1) and (a36-2)
The production contents shown in FIG. 8 are the same as the production contents shown in FIGS. 8A36-1 and 8A36-2.
Description is omitted.

FIG. 21 (a'36-3) is a BB1 prize-impossible game in which BB1 and replay are won at the same time, and BB1 cannot be won, and an RB1 combination effect is executed as a false combination effect on the winning line. It is a figure which shows the display content of the liquid crystal display 51 in the condition where symbol combinations other than the symbol combination corresponding to RB1 were derived | led-out.

As shown in FIG. 21 (a′36-3), when the third stop operation is performed, the character image “black 7 black 7 bar” disappears. That is, as shown in FIGS. 21 (a36-2) and (a'36-3), the RB1 combination effect is executed in the RB1 winning-winning game, and RB1
The stop switches 8L, 8C, and
RB1 is operated as a fake combination effect in the situation where 8R is operated and a symbol combination other than the symbol combination corresponding to RB1 is derived on the winning line, and BB1 no-winning game
A combination effect may be performed, and a common effect may be performed in a situation where a symbol combination other than the symbol combination corresponding to RB1 is derived on the winning line.

[Main effects]
Next, main effects obtained by the embodiment described above will be described.

(1) When the predetermined combination such as replay or bell is won in the internal state, the main control unit 41 gives priority to winning the predetermined combination winning over the bonus carried over.
As a result, in a game in which a predetermined combination such as replay or bell is won during the internal state, the winning bonus is not derived. In such a bonus non-payable game, the sub-control unit 91 can execute a false combination effect suggesting that a bonus different from the winning bonus is won. During the fake combination production, the stop switch 8L, 8C, and the operation mode corresponding to the bonus suggested by the fake combination production
Even if 8R is operated, the bonus is not won, so the suggested bonus is not won, and the winning of the predetermined role is prioritized over the winning bonus.
The winning bonus will not be awarded.

In this way, in the bonus non-payable game, the stop switch 8L is operated in the operation mode corresponding to the bonus suggested by the combination combination being executed, regardless of whether the true combination effect is executed or the false combination effect is executed. , 8C, 8R are not operated, the suggested bonus is not won. Therefore, even if a false combination effect is executed, there is no disadvantage to the player.

Further, depending on the lottery result, a bonus non-payable game may continue. In such a case, if the true combination effect is continuously executed, an impression that the game is extended is given to the player. As in this embodiment, in a bonus non-payable game, a false combination effect can be executed, so the range of effects during a bonus non-payable game is widened and the impression that the game is extended can be reduced. As a result, the interest of the game is improved.

In this embodiment, if a bonus is won, it is carried over until the winning bonus is won, so winning a bonus means that, in other words, it is determined to be controlled in a bonus state. That is, for example, BB1 is won
It means that it is determined to be controlled to the bonus state 1, and winning RB1 means that it is determined to be controlled to the regular bonus state 1.

Moreover, since various combination effects suggest the timing for operating the suggested bonus, as shown in FIGS. 8, 10, 14, and 16, for example, the suggested bonus can be derived. It can be said that this is an effect that suggests an operation mode.

(2) As shown in FIGS. 8 and 10, and FIGS. 14 and 16, the true combination effect is executed after the false combination effect is executed. As shown in FIG. 19, the probability of executing the false combination effect varies depending on the number of games that have elapsed since the bonus finalization effect was executed. For this reason, the probability of executing a false combination effect changes according to the period of time since the bonus finalization effect has been executed, and irregularities are produced in the post-bonus finalization effect, so that the entertainment of the game after the bonus finalization effect has occurred. Will improve.

(3) In step S11 of FIG. 18, it is determined not to execute the false combination effect depending on whether or not the predetermined combination is won. Specifically, there is a possibility that a false combination effect will be executed if a bonus and a predetermined combination are simultaneously won, but a false combination effect will not be executed if a rare combination different from the predetermined combination is simultaneously selected. .

That is, the execution probability of the false combination effect varies depending on the combination that is won at the same time as the bonus. Therefore, irregularities are produced in the effect after the bonus finalization effect, and the interest of the game after the bonus finalization effect is improved.

In the present embodiment, a false combination effect can be executed when a winning combination and a bonus that can be won regardless of the manner of operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are simultaneously won. When a combination that cannot be won regardless of the mode of operating the switches 8L, 8C, and 8R and a bonus are won simultaneously, the false combination effect is not executed. That is, even if the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated by an operation mode corresponding to a combination that does not win a prize, such as a fake combination effect, a combination won simultaneously with the bonus is won. Therefore, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8
Executing a fake combination effect without penalizing the player by performing a fake combination effect when a winning combination and bonus that can be won regardless of the mode of operating R are performed simultaneously. Can do.

(4) As shown in FIG. 19, the false combination effect is not executed when RB1 or RB2 is won, whereas the false combination effect can be executed when any of BB1 to BB3 is won. . In other words, when one of BB1 to BB3 is won, a false combination effect is executed with a higher probability than when RB1 or RB2 is won.

Therefore, when a false combination effect is executed, it can be expected to win a specific bonus. In a game in which a false combination effect is executed, the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8 are operated in an operation mode corresponding to a bonus suggested by the false combination effect.
In a situation where the bonus is not won despite operating R, the player can recognize that the combination effect being executed is a fake combination effect, and expects to win a specific bonus.

Further, in the present embodiment, the combination aspect of the combination effect does not change when the combination effect suggesting the winning of the same kind of special role is executed as the true combination effect or when the combination effect is executed as the false combination effect. Therefore, until the player recognizes that the bonus suggested by the fake combination effect is not won, the player does not know whether the executed combination effect is a fake combination effect or a true combination effect. It is like that.

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, when BB1 to BB3 which is more advantageous than RB1 and RB2 is won, and when any of RB1 and RB2 is won, BB1 to BB3 which are advantageous If one of them is won, a false combination effect is executed with a higher probability. Therefore, it can be expected that an advantageous bonus such as BB1 to BB3 is won.

(5) As shown in FIG. 20, when BB1 is won, the probability that the RB1 combination effect is executed as a false combination effect is higher than the RB2 combination effect. That is, the possibility of being suggested by a false combination effect varies depending on the type of bonus. Therefore, the bonus suggested by the fake combination effect can be noted.

In the present embodiment, an example is shown in which the type of bonus that is likely to be suggested by a fake combination effect varies depending on the type of bonus that has been won. Note that the possibility of being suggested by the fake combination effect only changes depending on the type of bonus, and the selection probability is not limited to the example shown in FIG.

FIG. 22 is a diagram illustrating a modification of the effect determination table. Specifically, this is a table for determining the type of combination effect to be executed as a false combination effect when it is determined to execute a false combination effect. As shown in FIG.
Even if any of the bonuses B1 to BB3 is won, the RB1 combination effect may be executed with a probability of 90% as the fake combination effect, and the RB2 combination effect may be executed with a probability of 10%. . Thus, when the probability of the combination effect to be executed does not change regardless of the winning bonus, the combination is performed at the timing when the specific combination effect (RB1 combination effect in the example shown in FIG. 22) is executed. It can be expected that the production is a fake combination production.

(6) As mentioned above, when BB1 is won, R is used as a false combination effect.
The probability that the RB1 combination effect is executed is higher than the B2 combination effect. As shown in FIG. 3, the symbol combination corresponding to RB1 is “black 7 black 7 bar”, the symbol combination corresponding to RB2 is “white 7 white 7 bar”, and the symbol combination corresponding to BB1. Is “black 7 black 7 black 7”. That is, the symbol combination corresponding to RB1 has more symbols in common with the symbol combination corresponding to BB1 than the symbol combination corresponding to RB2. Therefore, a bonus highly relevant to the bonus actually won can be suggested by the fake combination effect, so that the fun of the game is improved.

In the present embodiment, a bonus that is not related to the winning bonus may be suggested by a fake combination effect (for example, B
When executing a false combination effect at the time of B1 winning, the RB2 combination effect is executed with a probability of 10%), and only the bonus highly relevant to the winning bonus may be suggested by the false combination effect. .

(7) As shown in FIG. 8 (a36-2), the RB1 combination effect can be executed in an RB1 winning-winning game in which RB1 is won and RB1 can be won. In addition, as shown in FIG. 8 (a36-3), the RB1 combination effect is also executed in the BB1 non-winning game where BB1 is won and a symbol combination different from the symbol combination corresponding to BB1 is derived on the winning line. Can be done.

In the RB1 winning game, the RB1 combination effect is executed, and the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated in an operation mode different from the operation mode in which the RB1 can be won, and the symbols other than the symbol combination corresponding to RB1 on the winning line In the first situation in which the symbol combination is derived (also referred to as RB1 winning is missed), the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” corresponding to the RB1 combination effect disappears. On the other hand, in the second situation in which the RB1 combination effect is executed in the BB1 non-winning game and the symbol combination other than the symbol combination corresponding to RB1 is derived on the winning line, the character image of “black 7 black 7 bar” disappears. At the same time, a character image “promotion” is displayed. In other words, the sub-control unit 91 performs different effects in the first situation and the second situation.

Therefore, the player can recognize whether the situation is the first situation or the second situation. Specifically, it can be seen whether the executed RB1 combination effect is a true combination effect or a false combination effect. Further, the player can recognize whether or not the operation mode is wrong.

In the present embodiment, the example in which the display content of the liquid crystal display 51 is different is shown as an example in which the effects of the different modes are executed in the first situation and the second situation. You may change the control about the sound output from, or when the slot machine 1 is provided with LED, the light emission control with respect to LED may be changed. Here, changing the control includes outputting a sound on the one hand but not outputting a sound on the other side, and causing the LED to emit light on the one hand but not causing the LED to emit light on the other side.

(8) In the game in which the RB1 combination effect is executed as a true combination effect, and in the RB1 winning possible game in which RB1 can be won, the effect mode in the first situation where RB1 is missed is shown in FIG. As shown in -2), the character image used for the RB1 combination effect is erased, and the entire image displayed on the back side of the character image is displayed.

On the other hand, in a game in which the RB1 combination effect is executed as a fake combination effect and the winning BB1 cannot be won,
The aspect of the production in the second situation where neither BB1 nor RB1 won is shown in FIG.
As shown in (a'36-3), the character image used for the RB1 combination effect may be erased, and the entire image displayed on the back side of the character image may be displayed.

That is, in the present embodiment, different aspects of the production are executed in the first situation and the second situation, but a common aspect of the production may be executed. By doing in this way, it can be made unknown whether it is the 1st situation or the 2nd situation. Specifically, whether the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R was correct or incorrect, or whether the combination effect being executed is a true combination effect or a false combination effect. The person can not be identified.

By doing so, it is possible to continue expectation of which bonus the winning bonus is, including the bonus corresponding to the executed combination effect.

(9) As shown in FIG. 8, when the combination effect is not executed, the predetermined effect suggestion effect is performed using the second predetermined role suggestion image and the voice “bashi”, whereas the combination effect is executed. The predetermined role suggestion effect is performed using the first predetermined role suggestion image.
That is, the control relating to the predetermined combination suggestion effect is different between when the combination effect is not executed and when the combination effect is executed.

Therefore, the predetermined role suggesting effect can be executed according to the situation of whether or not to execute the combination effect, and as a result, the effect according to the situation can be performed.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the combination effect is executed, the execution of the predetermined combination suggestion effect is controlled so that the combination effect is given priority. Specifically, when the sound used for the combination effect is output when executing the combination effect,
The sound used in the predetermined role suggesting effect is not output. Thereby, the predetermined role suggestion effect can be executed so as not to disturb the effect being executed.

[Modification]
As mentioned above, although main embodiment in this invention has been described, this invention is not restricted to said embodiment, A various deformation | transformation and application are possible. Hereinafter, modifications of the above-described embodiment applicable to the present invention will be described.

[Predicted role suggestion]
In the present embodiment, as an example in which the control of the predetermined role suggestion effect is different between the game in which the combination effect is executed and the game in which the combination effect is not executed, the effect mode of the predetermined role suggestion effect is taken as an example. Listed. In addition, as a method of making the control of the predetermined role suggestion effect different, the predetermined role suggestion effect may not be executed in one game and the predetermined role suggestion effect may be executed in the other game.

In the present embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 performs the predetermined role suggestion effect using a display unit such as the liquid crystal display 51. The sub control unit 91 may perform the predetermined role suggesting effect using at least one of a sound output unit such as the speaker 53, a light emitting unit such as an LED, and a display unit.

In the present embodiment, an example is given in which an effect that suggests a predetermined combination that is actually won is executed as the predetermined combination suggestion. However, a combination that is different from the predetermined combination that is actually won is selected. You may perform the production | presentation which suggests doing.

[Combination production]
In the present embodiment, an example is shown in which a true combination effect is executed in a bonus winning game. The true combination effect may be executed during a bonus non-winning game. Further, when a true combination effect is executed during a bonus non-winning game, a predetermined combination suggestion effect may be executed. Even in this case, the same control as the control for the predetermined role suggesting effect during the false combination effect is performed. In this way, it is possible to prevent the player from specifying whether the combination effect is a false combination effect or a true combination effect.

Note that the combination effect suggesting the type of winning bonus is not limited to the effect aspect shown in the present embodiment. For example, it may be an effect that outputs a voice “aiming for black 7 black 7 bar”.

Moreover, although the operation timing is suggested by displaying the symbol combination constituting the suggested bonus, the operation order may also be suggested. For example, a character image “from the left” may be added to a character image “black 7 black 7 bar”. In this way, it is possible to derive from a display result common to the bonus actually won and the bonus suggested by the fake combination effect. As a result, it is possible to lengthen the period until the player recognizes that the combination effect being executed is a fake combination effect.

In addition, an example in which the combination effect is performed in a game after the bonus finalization effect is executed has been shown. However, in the bonus finalization effect, an operation for starting the next game is executed after the bonus finalization is performed. A combination effect may be executed before being performed.

Further, in FIG. 19, the game played after FIG. 7 (a29) or FIG. 13 (b29) is 1
As a game, the number of games after bonus finalization is calculated. Note that the game with the character image “WIN” shown in FIG. 6 or FIG. Therefore, the number of games may be calculated from the next game shown in FIG. 6 (a17) or FIG. 12 (b17), and a false combination effect is produced before the next game starts from FIG. 6 (a17) or FIG. 12 (b17). May be executed.

In addition, the combination effect suggesting the type of winning bonus is not limited to the effect aspect shown in the present embodiment.

[Execution probability of fake combination production]
The process of determining execution of the false combination effect shown in FIGS. 18 and 19 is an example. In the present embodiment, in the bonus non-payable game, the execution of the false combination effect is determined so that the execution probability of the false combination effect varies depending on whether the predetermined role is won or the rare role is won. The Note that the execution of the false combination effect may be determined according to the type of the predetermined combination that has been won. For example, in a slot machine having a plurality of types of replay roles (for example, replay 1 and replay 2) and a plurality of types of bell roles (for example, bell 1 and bell 2), replay 1 or bell 1 and a bonus are won simultaneously. The false combination effect may be executed with a different probability between the case where the player is present and the case where the replay 2 or the bell 2 and the bonus are simultaneously won. Also, when Replay 2 or Bell 2 and a bonus are won simultaneously, the derivation of Replay or Bell 2 is prioritized over the bonus winning.

In addition, an example is shown in which a false combination effect is executed when the derivation of the display result accompanied by the transition to the advantageous state is permitted and the derivation of other display results is also permitted. In addition,
When only the derivation of the display result accompanied by the transition to the advantageous state is permitted, the false combination effect may be executed. Further, the false combination effect may be executed when the special role having the lowest advantage is won. That is, a false combination effect may be executed when RB1 or RB2 is won. In this case, as a fake combination effect, suggest a regular bonus that is won after suggesting a regular bonus rather than suggesting a regular bonus that is won after suggesting a big bonus that is not won Is preferred.

[Advantageous state]
In the present embodiment, the bonus state is exemplified as an advantageous state, but the advantageous state is not limited to the bonus state. For example, the advantageous state includes all the replay time (RT) in which the winning probability of a predetermined winning combination is high, the concentrated state of small roles, and the attraction range of at least one reel is narrower than usual and every game. It does not change the challenge time (CT) in which the occurrence of a small combination is allowed, the winning probability of winning a winning combination, etc., but the operation procedure for winning the winning small combination is digested for a predetermined period (for example, 50 games) It may be a pseudo bonus for informing over the period up to). In addition, the probability of being controlled to these advantageous states may be a high probability, the probability of being controlled to the freeze state is high, and the number of games such as the number of AT games is high. You may set the advantageous state of a different aspect from the said embodiment, such as the state added and the state where it is easy to increase the number of additional games of AT. In addition, it is indirectly advantageous for the player, such as the condition for obtaining a privilege on the communication line network and the probability of establishing a condition for executing a premium effect (freeze effect, premium effect, etc.). It may be a state where a special privilege or an interest of the game is improved. Further, the allowance determining means for determining whether or not to allow the transition to the advantageous state is not limited to the internal lottery process, and may be a means for determining regardless of the winning combination.

[Internal state]
In the present embodiment, the inside middle state is taken as an example as the timing for executing the promotion effect. For example, as in the case of this embodiment, when it is not a bonus that suggests winning of a bonus that has been won, but the right to shift to an advantageous state such as a bonus is carried over, and a predetermined role is won during the carry-over In the case of transition, the promotion effect may be executed when the right to transition to an advantageous state is carried over.

[Control for deriving display result different from one special display result]
As an example of control for deriving a display result different from one special display result, control giving priority to derivation of another display result has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the derivation of one special display result may not be allowed. Moreover, you may perform control which derives | leads-out the display result different from the one special display result by alert | reporting the operation mode different from the operation mode for deriving one special display result.

[About darkening process]
In the present embodiment, the dark transition process is a process of darkening the entire screen by reducing the brightness of the entire screen of the liquid crystal display 51. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the darkening process may be a process of darkening part of the screen by reducing the brightness of part of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51.

Note that the darkening process is not limited to an object that lowers the brightness of the screen, and may be a process that changes the display color of the screen to a dark color. Further, the brightness and display color of the screen may be partially changed, and the area where the darkening process is performed may be enlarged step by step. Further, the dark conversion process may be a process in which a dark dark image is superimposed on the front side of a character, cloud, or treasure box still image, and a result image is further superimposed on the front side.

In the present embodiment, the darkening process is performed in response to the third stop operation. However, the present invention is not limited to this. When the start switch 7 is operated, the first stop operation, or the second stop operation is performed. The darkening process may be performed when triggered. Even if the darkening process is performed at any time, the trigger and the start timing of the darkening process may be the same in the battle mission effect and the castle search mission effect.

[About mute]
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5 (h9), FIG. 6 (a11), and FIG. 12 (b11), the sound output from the speaker 53 stops after the darkening process is performed. . However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the sound output may be stopped at the same time as the darkening process is performed, or the sound output may be stopped before the darkening process is performed. In order to give a dark impression to the player, the sound output from the speaker 53 may be stopped at any timing as long as the darkening process is performed and the darkening process is completed.

[About mission production]
In the present embodiment, the battle mission effect and the castle search mission effect are illustrated as effects that make the player expect a bonus winning, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the mission effect may include a mission effect other than the battle mission effect and the castle search mission effect, and these mission effects may be determined by lottery or selectable by the player. Good. In addition to the mission effect, any effect may be executed as long as it is an effect that is performed up to the bonus confirmation effect, the combination effect, and the bonus prize effect.

The embodiment disclosed this time should be considered as illustrative in all points and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the terms of the claims, rather than the description above, and is intended to include any modifications within the scope and meaning equivalent to the terms of the claims.
