In the AT section, an instruction necessary for winning a relatively advantageous role among the roles won by the internal lottery, specifically, stop buttons provided corresponding to the left, middle and right reels Is instructed to the player.

  Slot machines are required to have a proper gambling as a countermeasure against the "introduction" problem. In order for the slot machine to have an appropriate gambling property, it is necessary to suppress the payout rate in the AT section to a reference value or less.

JP 2014-23648 A

  However, depending on the number of payouts of the push order small hand, which is the small win in which the push order is instructed, even if the winning probability of the push order small hand is changed, the payout rate in the AT section can be suppressed well below the reference value. Can not.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a slot machine that can successfully suppress the payout rate to a reference value or less.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described. To facilitate understanding of the present invention, reference numerals and the like in the accompanying drawings are appended in parentheses, but the present invention is not limited to the display form.

  In order to achieve the above object, the slot machine (1) according to the present invention performs a lottery for each of a plurality of types of lottery targets including a plurality of types of pressing order small combinations according to a game start operation. Internal lottery means (41, 51, 55, 57); and reel starting means (41, 51) for rotating and starting a plurality of reels having a plurality of types of symbols arranged on respective outer peripheral surfaces after the lottery by the internal lottery means. And reel control means (41, 51, 58) for performing control to stop a reel corresponding to the stop instruction operation within a predetermined maximum draw-in range in response to a stop instruction operation for each reel after the rotation start of the plurality of reels. ), And in the game in which one of a plurality of different pressing order small wins has been won as a result of the lottery by the internal lottery means, indicates the correct answer operation order, which is the order of the stop instruction operation to obtain the maximum payout number. A slot machine provided with instruction means (33, 34L, 34R, 41, 42, 43, 51), wherein a maximum payout number is a first number for a plurality of types of small push orders. A first push order small win that includes a push order small win and a second push order small win whose maximum payout number is a second number smaller than the first number is won by the internal lottery means. A first payout ratio calculated based on the winning probability and the first number, and a second winning probability calculated based on the second number and a second number in the lottery by the internal lottery means. The first number, the second number, the first winning probability, and the second winning probability are set so that the total with the payout ratio does not exceed the reference value.

  According to this configuration, the plurality of types of push order small wins are the first push order small win with the maximum payout number being the first number, and the second number being the maximum payout number being smaller than the first number. The second pressing order small role is included. Then, the first winning percentage calculated based on the first winning probability and the first number to win the first push order small win, and the second winning to win the second push order small win by the internal lottery means. The first number, the second number, the first winning probability, and the second winning probability are set so that the sum of the probability and the second payout rate calculated based on the second number does not exceed the reference value. . Therefore, even in the order of the stop instruction operation in which the maximum payout number can be obtained, that is, in the section in which the correct operation order is instructed, the payout rate can be successfully suppressed to the reference value or less.

  The plurality of types of push order small combinations include one or more types of first push order small combinations and one or more types of second push order small combinations. It is preferable that the combined value of the two winning probabilities is larger than the combined value of the first winning probabilities of the first pushing order small wins.

  Since the payout number of the second push order small combination is a second number smaller than the first number which is the payout number of the first push order small combination, the total value of the second winning probability of the second push order small combination is By being larger than the sum of the first winning probabilities of the first push order small winning combinations, the payout rate can be suppressed to a reference value or less.

  The plurality of types of lottery targets by the internal lottery means in the normal state include a bonus start hand that shifts to the bonus state in accordance with a prize. In the role, a first winning mode including a first small role having a first number of payouts and a second small role having a second number of payouts, and the second small role is included in the winning small role, There is a second winning mode that does not include small wins in which the number of payouts exceeds the second number, and the winning probabilities of the first winning mode and the second winning mode in the bonus state are determined in the normal state. It is preferable that the setting is made so as to be medium or higher, and that the throwing rate in the bonus state is less than 1.

  As a result, in order to suppress gambling, it is possible to increase the payout rate in the non-bonus state while keeping the total payout rate in the bonus state and the non-bonus state at or below a certain level. It can increase interest.

  The slot machine calculates a payout rate during the most recent predetermined time period (41, 51, S11), and the payout rate during the predetermined time period calculated by the payout rate calculation means is a reference value. If it exceeds, the instruction of the correct operation order by the instruction means is prohibited for at least one of the first pressing small combination and the second pressing small combination, until the payout rate falls below the reference value. Instruction prohibiting means (41, 51, S12, S13).

  As a result, it is possible to suppress the state where the payout rate exceeds the reference value.

  According to the present invention, the payout rate can be successfully suppressed to a reference value or less even in a section in which the correct operation order of the stop instruction operation that provides the maximum payout number is instructed.

L1 becomes effective as a winning line.

<Basic game processing>
FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing a flow of one game in the slot machine 1.

  In the slot machine 1, for each game, the CPU 51 of the main board 41 executes a medal receiving process (S1), a betting process (S2), a lever receiving process (S3), an internal lottery process (S4), and a reel rotating process (S4). S5), reel stop processing (S6), symbol determination processing (S7), medal payout processing (S8), and state transition processing (S9) are executed in this order.

  In the medal acceptance process, the CPU 51 updates the number of medals deposited in the slot machine 1, that is, the number of credits, based on the detection signal of the medal insertion sensor 65, and controls the medal block solenoid 62. When a predetermined number of medals are bet on the game and the number of credits is less than 50, and a medal is inserted into the medal insertion slot 21, the inserted medals are stored in the medal storage unit and the number of credits is stored. Is added to. If a medal is inserted into the medal slot 21 with a predetermined number of medals bet on the game and the number of credits has reached 50, the inserted medals are discharged through the medal outlet 31 and the credits are discharged. No update of numbers. The number of credits is displayed on the credit number display 15.

  When the settlement button 27 is operated in a state where one or more medals are credited, the CPU 51 controls the medal payout motor 63 and all the credited medals are received from the medal discharge port 31 through the medal receiving port 31. 32. Accordingly, the display of the credit amount indicator 15 is updated to “0”.

  In the betting process, when a medal is inserted from the medal insertion slot 21 in a state where a predetermined number of medals are not bet on the game, the CPU 51 adds 1 to the bet number which is the number of medals bet on the game. You. When the MAX bet button 22 is operated in a state where medals of a specified number or more are credited to the slot machine 1 and medals are not bet on the game, the CPU 51 subtracts the specified number from the credit number. Then, a prescribed number of medals are bet on the game. When the single bet button 23 is operated in a state where the bet number is less than the specified number, the CPU 51 subtracts 1 from the credit number and adds 1 to the bet number. When the two bet button 24 is operated with the bet number being 0 or 1, the CPU 51 subtracts 2 from the credit number and adds 2 to the bet number.

  In the lever receiving process, the CPU 51 determines whether or not the start lever 25 has been operated, that is, whether or not an operation signal has been output from a switch attached to the start lever 25. When the start lever 25 is operated after a predetermined number of medals have been bet on the game, the operation of the start lever 25 is accepted by the CPU 51.

  In the internal lottery process, an internal lottery is executed by the CPU 51 in accordance with the operation of the start lever 25. Specifically, one random number is obtained by the CPU 51 from the random number generation circuit 55 at the timing when the start lever 25 is operated. The random number generation circuit 55 includes an increment counter that counts up in response to an output of a clock pulse from an oscillator, and generates a 16-bit random number (0 to 65535). After obtaining the random number, the CPU 51 refers to the lottery table 57 stored in the ROM 52. The lottery table 57 is created by associating one or more combinations with lottery values for each of a plurality of lottery categories. By comparing the random number acquired from the random number generation circuit 55 with the lottery value of each lottery section, one lottery section is drawn, and the hand associated with the lottery section is determined as the winning hand. If the lottery classification is not specified from the random number, the result of the internal lottery is determined to be out (non-winning).

  In the reel rotation processing, the CPU 51 starts inputting a drive pulse signal to the stepping motors 61L, 61C, 61R. Upon input of the drive pulse signal, the stepping motors 61L, 61C, 61R rotate, and the left reel R1, the middle reel R2, and the right reel R3 rotate.

  In the reel stop process, when the left stop button 26L, the middle stop button 26C, and the right stop button 26R are pressed, the CPU 51 stops the output of the drive pulse signals to the stepping motors 61L, 61C, 61R. By stopping the output of the drive pulse signal, the stepping motors 61L, 61C, 61R stop, and the left reel R1, the middle reel R2, and the right reel R3 stop. At this time, the CPU 51 refers to the result of the internal lottery and the stop control table 58, and based on the rotation positions of the left reel R1, the middle reel R2, and the right reel R3, the left stop button 26L, the middle stop button 26C, and the right stop button. After the button 26R is pressed, each of the left reel R1, the middle reel R2, and the right reel R3 has a winning combination determined by the internal lottery within a range of a predetermined maximum number of drawn-in frames (for example, 4 frames) or less. Stopping of the left reel R1, the middle reel R2, and the right reel R3 (stepping motors 61L, 61C, 61R) is controlled so that the corresponding symbol combination is drawn on the pay line L1 (hereinafter, this control is referred to as "pull-in control"). .) The rotational positions of the left reel R1, the center reel R2, and the right reel R3 are obtained from the number of steps of the stepping motors 61L, 61C, 61R and the detection signals of the reel position detection sensors 64L, 64C, 64R.

  In the symbol determination process, after the left reel R1, the middle reel R2, and the right reel R3 are stopped, the CPU 51 determines that the combination of the symbols stopped on the winning line L1 is one of the symbol combinations corresponding to the winning combination in the internal lottery. It is determined whether they match. When the symbol combination stopped on the winning line L1 matches any of the symbol combinations corresponding to the winning combination in the internal lottery, the CPU 51 determines that the winning combination corresponding to the combination of the symbols has won. You. If the combination of symbols stopped on the winning line L1 does not match any of the combinations of symbols corresponding to the winning combination in the internal lottery, the CPU 51 determines that no combination has been won. You.

  In the medal payout process, when a combination of symbols related to the small winning combination is arranged on the pay line L1, the small winning combination is won, and the CPU 51 pays out a medal of a predetermined number of payouts to the small winning combination. The number of medals to be paid is displayed on the payout number display 16. The medals paid out for the winning are credited to the slot machine 1 with an upper limit of 50 medals, and the medals exceeding 50 medals are discharged from the medal discharge port 31 to the medal receiving tray 32.

  In the state transition processing, the CPU 51 transitions the gaming state of the slot machine 1 according to the result of the internal lottery or the combination of the symbols stopped on the winning line L1. Details of the state transition processing will be described later.

So that the total does not exceed 2.20 (220%), which is the reference value, and the total does not greatly fall below the reference value. The number of payouts for winning and the number of payouts for winning the winning combinations included in the lottery category “3-selection pressing order group B1 to B3” are determined, and their lottery values in the RT1 lottery table 57 are determined. For example, in the case of the lottery table 57 for RT1 used when the set value is “setting 6”, the lottery division “3-selection order group A1 to A3” or “3 When winning in the “3 selection pressing order groups B1 to B3”, it is determined that the winning combination determined by the winning will not be missed, and the payout rate is calculated as follows.
Payout rate = (6/3) × {(8500 + 8500 + 8500) / (65536-4500-4500-4036)} + (7/3) × {(8000 + 8000 + 8000) / (65536-4500-4500-4036)} 2. 038 (203.8%)

  When the role "BB" is won in the game (RT0) determined as the winning combination, the gaming state shifts to the bonus state (RT2). On the other hand, if the winning combination “BB” has not been won in the game (RT0) determined as the winning combination, the gaming state shifts to the inside bonus state (RT1). In the slot machine 1, the non-winning (losing) in the bonus inside medium state is set to 0, so that the role "BB" is not won in the game (RT0) determined as the winning role. , The winning combination "BB" will not be won in the subsequent bonus inside state.

  For the internal lottery in the game at RT2, a lottery table 57 for RT2 is used. In the lottery table 57 for RT2, as shown in FIG. 12, lottery categories “correct answer order group A1, A2” and “wrong answer order group” are defined.

  The RT2 lottery table 57 is one type, and is commonly used regardless of the setting value “setting 1 to 6”. That is, in the lottery table 57 for RT2, the lottery value “501” is associated with the lottery category “correct answer order group A1”, and the lottery value “8001” is associated with the lottery category “correct answer order group A2”. The lottery value “57034” is associated with the lottery category “illegal answer pressing order group”.

  The lottery division “correct answer order group A1” is associated with the role “Bell A1-15”, and the lottery division “correct answer order sequence A2” is the role “bell A1-15” and “Bell B1-3”. , “Watermelons A1 to 5”, “watermelons B1 to 4”, and “cherry 1” are associated with each other. Therefore, as can be understood with reference to FIG. 13, the winning probability of each of the roles “Bell A1 to 15” increases from 8500/65536 to 8502/65536 in RT2 as compared with RT0 and RT1, and the role “ The winning probability of each of "Bells B1 to B3" has increased from 8000/65536 to 8001/65536.

In addition, in RT2, when the lottery section “Correct Answer Push Order Group A1” is won, a 6-sheet payout is awarded. When the lottery section “Correct Answer Push Order Group A2” is won, a 7-sheet payout is awarded. In the case of winning in the category “Illegal push order group”, no payout is awarded. Therefore, the payout rate at RT2 is obtained as follows.
Payout rate = (6/3) × 501/65536 + (7/3) × 8001/65536 + 0 ≒ 0.300 (30.0%)
Therefore, with this setting, the payout rate during the bonus can be set to less than 1.

  After the end of the bonus game, the RT state shifts from RT2 to RT0.

Next, transition of the gaming state will be described with reference to FIG. 9B.
When the power of the slot machine 1 is turned on, the gaming state is set to a non-advantaged state.
In the non-advantageous state, in the internal lottery in which the RT state is RT0 or RT1, when the lottery division “yellow bar aligned replay”, “watermelon” or “cherry” is won, it is advantageous to determine whether or not to shift to the advantageous state. A state transition lottery is executed.
Although the RT state is set to RT0 or RT1, once it shifts to RT1, it stays at RT1, so that the non-advantageous state and the advantageous state transition during the actual RT1 state.

  When the lottery division “Yellow Bar Match Replay” is won, the slot machine 1 always transitions to the advantageous state from the next game, and when the lottery division “watermelon” is won, the slot machine 1 has a 30% probability of starting from the next game. When the game is shifted to the advantageous state and the lottery division “CELLY” is won, it is set to shift from the next game to the advantageous state with a probability of 50%. The probability (transition probability) is not limited to this.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing the relationship between the AT continuation rate lottery table and the expected number of base AT games according to the AT continuation rate. FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating an example of an additional specialization zone lottery table. FIG. 16 is a diagram illustrating an example of the additional game number lottery table.

In the advantageous state, the AT lottery for determining whether or not to shift to the AT state is executed in accordance with the satisfaction of the predetermined condition. The predetermined condition may be a condition that the specific combination is determined as the winning combination in the internal lottery. In that case, a plurality of specific combinations may be set, and the winning probability in the AT lottery may be set for each specific combination. When the AT lottery is won, the transition to the AT state is determined, and the gaming state transitions to the AT state.
The slot machine 1 performs the AT lottery via the advantageous state (normal) when transitioning from the non-advantageous state to the advantageous state, but may set the AT state when transitioning from the non-advantageous state to the advantageous state. .

  In the AT state, the AT function operates. When the lottery division “3-selection pressing order group A1-3, B1-3” is drawn by internal lottery in the game in the AT state, the maximum number (6 or 7) of payouts is obtained by the operation of the AT function. The correct answer order is notified. The notification of the correct answer order may be notification by display of the liquid crystal display 33, notification by sound output from the speakers 34L and 34R, or both. By being notified of the correct answer order, the player can reliably obtain the maximum number of payouts by performing the first operation of the left stop button 26L, the middle stop button 26C, or the right stop button 26R according to the correct answer order.

  The AT state ends when the number of remaining games becomes 0 and the game shifts to the AT continuous lottery. That is, when the number of remaining games in the AT state becomes 0, the AT continuous lottery is executed, and when the game is shifted to the AT continuous lottery, the AT state ends. When the AT state ends, the gaming state shifts from the AT state to a non-advantaged state. The initial value of the number of remaining games is set to the number of games for one set, for example, 50G.

  In the AT continuation lottery, it is determined whether the AT state is continued or ended. The probability that the continuation of the AT state is drawn by the AT continuation lottery, that is, the AT continuation rate, is determined by the AT continuation rate lottery when the AT state is started. The AT continuation rate lottery table shown in FIG. 14 is used for the AT continuation rate lottery. In the AT continuation rate lottery table, the lottery value "30000" is associated with the continuation rate 33%, the lottery value "20,000" is associated with the continuation rate 50%, and the lottery value "9000" is associated with the continuation rate 70%. The lottery value “4000” is associated with the continuation rate 75%, the lottery value “1500” is associated with the continuation rate 80%, the lottery value “600” is associated with the continuation rate 90%, and the continuation rate 92 The lottery value “350” is associated with the percentage, the lottery value “80” is associated with the continuation rate 95%, and the lottery value “6” is associated with the continuation rate 100%.

  If the AT continuous lottery is won, the number of games for one set, that is, 50G is added to the number of remaining games.

  The slot machine 1 is provided with a limiter. When the number of digested games in the advantageous state reaches the advantageous state limit (for example, 1500 G), or when the difference number generated in the advantageous state reaches the advantageous state limit (for example, 2400), the limiter is activated and the game is played. The state is forcibly transitioned from a favorable state to a non-favorable state.

  Further, in the AT state, the additional game number lottery is executed by the CPU 51 of the main board 41 in accordance with the satisfaction of the predetermined condition. In the additional game number lottery, the number of games to be added to the remaining game number in the AT state is randomly selected. When the number of games other than 0 is drawn in the additional game number lottery, the number of selected games is added to the number of remaining games, and when 0 is drawn in the additional game number lottery, the number of remaining games is not added.

  Further, in the AT state, the additional special zone lottery is executed by the CPU 51 of the main board 41. The additional special zone lottery is a lottery that determines whether or not to shift the gaming state from the AT state to the additional special zone state. When the additional special zone lottery is won, a transition from the AT state to the additional special zone state is determined. In the additional special zone state, the probability that the number of games other than 0 is randomly selected in the additional game number lottery is higher than in the AT state. The additional special zone state ends when the specified number of games (for example, 10G) has elapsed (digested).

  The additional special zone lottery table shown in FIG. 15 is used for the additional special zone lottery. When using the additional special zone table, the remaining number of advantageous section games, which is a difference value obtained by subtracting the number of games that have been consumed in the advantageous state up to the present time from the finite state limit relating to the number of games, is obtained. A difference value obtained by subtracting the number of base AT games is obtained. The number of base AT games represents the average length of an advantageous section in which the AT state continues, and is determined by prediction from the AT continuation rate. As shown in FIG. 14, when the AT continuation rate is 33%, the average number of continuation sets is 1.5 sets, and the number of base AT games is determined to be 74.7 games. If the AT continuation rate is 50%, the average number of continuation sets is determined to be 2.0 sets, and the number of base AT games is determined to be 100 games. If the AT continuation rate is 70%, the average number of continuation sets is Is 3.3 sets, the base AT game number is determined to be 166.7 games, and if the AT continuation rate is 75%, the average continuous set number is 4.0 sets and the base AT game number is 200 games. If the AT continuation rate is 80%, the average number of continuation sets is 5.0 sets, the number of base AT games is determined to be 250 games, and if the AT continuation rate is 90%, If the average number of continuation sets is 10.0 sets and the number of base AT games is determined to be 500 games, and the AT continuation rate is 92%, the average number of continuation sets is 12.5 sets and the base If the number of T games is determined to be 625 games and the AT continuation rate is 95%, the average number of continuation sets is 20.0 sets, the number of base AT games is determined to be 1000 games, and the AT continuation rate is 100%. , It is determined that the finite state limit is reached, and the number of base AT games is determined to be 1500 games.

  In the additional specialization zone lottery table, as shown in FIG. 15, a plurality of ranges related to a difference value obtained by subtracting the number of base AT games from the number of remaining advantageous section games are defined, and the lottery classification in the internal lottery is defined for each range. And the lottery value are determined.

  In other words, when the difference value obtained by subtracting the number of base AT games from the number of remaining advantageous section games is less than 50 games, each of the lottery categories “watermelon”, “cherry”, and “yellow bar aligned replay” in the internal lottery The lottery value “0” is associated.

  When the difference value obtained by subtracting the number of base AT games from the number of remaining advantageous section games is in a range of 50 or more and less than 100 games, the lottery value “5000” is associated with the lottery type “watermelon” in the internal lottery, and the lottery type A lottery value “2048” is associated with “cherry”, and a lottery value “4096” is associated with the lottery category “yellow bar aligned replay”.

  When the difference value obtained by subtracting the number of base AT games from the number of remaining advantageous section games is 100 games or more and less than 300 games, the lottery value “10000” is associated with the lottery type “watermelon” in the internal lottery, and the lottery type A lottery value “4096” is associated with “cherry”, and a lottery value “8192” is associated with the lottery category “yellow bar aligned replay”.

  In addition, in the AT state, the left stop button 26L, the middle stop button 26C, and the right stop button 26R are operated in the AT state without following the correct order notified by the AT function, and the left stop button 26L, the middle stop button This is a batting method for preventing a winning combination from being won when the 26C and the right stop button 26R are operated in the correct order. The life extension method and its countermeasures are described below.

  In the AT state, for example, as shown in FIG. 17, in the game next to the game that has won the winning combination "rp", the winning combination "suica" is determined by internal lottery, and the winning combination "suica" is won. It is assumed that a three-sheet payout is awarded and the difference number becomes 2397. In the game after winning the winning combination "rp" in the following two games, the winning combination "bel6" is won by the internal lottery, and the left stop button 26L, the middle stop button 26C, and the right in the correct order notified by the AT function. When the stop button 26R is operated in the order of the correct answer and a payout of six is awarded, the difference number becomes 2400. As a result, the difference number exceeds the advantageous state limit, the limiter operates, and the gaming state falls from the advantageous state to the non-advantageous state.

  On the other hand, when the winning combination "bel6" is won by the internal lottery, if the left stop button 26L, the middle stop button 26C, and the right stop button 26R are operated in an order different from the correct order, the winning combination "bel6" is missed. No dividend is awarded. However, in the slot machine 1, the left stop button 26L and the middle stop are set in the AT state in order to continue the AT state (extend the life) despite the fact that the winning combination "bel6" has been won and the correct answer order has been notified in the AT state. When the button 26C and the right stop button 26R are operated in a different order from the correct answer order (when the life extension method is performed), it is considered that the winning combination "bel6" has been won, and the difference number is calculated. In addition, a role that may be missed in the AT state, that is, a winning combination of “Watermelons A1-5, B1-4” and “Chery” is won by an internal lottery, and even if it is missed, the winning prize is won. And the difference number is calculated.

  As a result, as shown in FIG. 18, in the next game after the game in which the winning combination "rp" is won, the winning combination "suica" is determined by the internal lottery, and even if the winning combination "suica" is omitted. The calculated difference number is 2397. Then, in the game after winning the winning combination "rp" in the subsequent two games, the winning combination "bel6" is won by the internal lottery, and the left stop button 26L is set in a different order from the correct answer notified by the AT function. Even if the stop button 26C and the right stop button 26R are operated and the six winning combinations "bel6" are missed, the calculated difference number becomes 2400. As a result, the calculated difference number exceeds the advantageous state limit, the limiter operates, and the gaming state falls from the advantageous state to the non-advantageous state. In this case, the actual difference number is 2391. Therefore, the player suffers more when performing the life extension method.

<Effects>
As described above, the additional special zone lottery table is created such that the greater the difference value obtained by subtracting the number of base AT games from the number of remaining advantageous section games, the greater the probability of winning the additional special zone lottery. . Further, the additional game number lottery table is created so that the larger the difference value obtained by subtracting the number of base AT games from the number of remaining advantageous section games, the higher the number of additional games in the additional game number lottery. Therefore, even if the number of remaining games frequently increases in the additional specialization zone, the limiter can be prevented from operating with the remaining number of games remaining, and the additional number of remaining games can be prevented from being wasted. As a result, it is possible to prevent the player from being given a sense of loss due to wasting of the privilege.

  Also, in the slot machine 1, in the AT state, the winning combination "bel6" is won, and if the order of correct answer is announced, but the life extension method is performed, the winning combination "bel6" is won. And the difference number is calculated. Also, in the AT state, if a winning combination that may be missed is won by an internal lottery and the winning combination is missed, the difference is calculated assuming that the winning combination has been won. Thereby, the life extension method can be substantially invalidated, and the operation of the limiter relating to the difference number can be prevented from being avoided by the life extension method. As a result, it is possible to prevent the slot machine 1 from being captured by the extended life hitting method, and it is possible to prevent the hole from being greatly annoying.

  Further, in the slot machine 1, in the AT state, the payout rate due to the winning of the lottery section “3-selection order group A1 to A3” and the lottery section “3-selection order group B1 to B3” win. Included in the lottery category "3-selection pressing order group A1 to A3" so that the total with the payout rate does not exceed the standard value of 2.20 (220%) and the total does not greatly fall below the standard value. The number of payouts for winning a winning combination and the number of payouts for winning a win included in the lottery classification “3 selection pressing order groups B1 to B3” are determined, and their lottery values in the lottery table 57 for RT1 are determined. I have. Therefore, even in the AT state, the payout rate can be suppressed to a value equal to or less than the reference value, and the gambling property can be increased as much as possible because the payout rate does not greatly fall below the reference value.

  In addition, when the winning probability of each minor role during the bonus (during RT2) is equal to or higher than the winning probability of each minor role during the non-bonus (during RT0 and RT1), and the throwing rate during the bonus falls below 1, In order to suppress gambling, it is possible to increase the payout rate during non-bonus while keeping the total payout rate during bonus and non-bonus less than a certain value, and increase the interest of the game during non-bonus be able to.

  In the slot machine 1, the CPU 51 of the main board 41 may execute the AT function operation inhibition processing shown in FIG. 19 for each game.

  In the AT function operation prohibition process, the payout rate during the latest predetermined period is calculated (S11). The predetermined period may be a period from the start of the AT state to the current time, or may be a period going back from the current time by a certain number of games (for example, 50G) in the past.

  After calculating the payout rate, it is determined whether or not the payout rate is equal to or more than a reference value (for example, 2.20) (S12). If the payout rate is equal to or higher than the reference value, the operation of the AT function is prohibited, and the notification of the correct answer order by the AT function is stopped. Since the correct answer order is not notified, even if the player wins the lottery division “3 choice push order group A1 to A3” or “3 choice push order group B1 to B3”, the winning of the winning combination of the highest payout number is lost. , The payout rate can be reduced.

  Therefore, by executing the AT function operation prohibition process, it is possible to suppress the state where the payout rate exceeds the reference value.

<Modification>
The embodiments of the present invention have been described above, but the present invention can be embodied in other forms.

  For example, in each of the above-described embodiments, the number of base AT games representing the average length of the advantageous section in which the AT state continues is predicted from the AT continuation rate, and the difference obtained by subtracting the number of base AT games from the number of remaining advantageous section games. It is assumed that the additional specialization zone lottery and the additional game number lottery are performed using the values. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and as shown in FIG. 19, the base AT difference number (MY number) indicating the average length of the advantageous section in which the AT state continues is predicted from the AT continuation rate, A difference value obtained by subtracting the difference number in the current advantageous state from the finite state limit is obtained, and a difference value obtained by subtracting the base AT difference number from the remaining advantage section difference number is added. A lottery zone lottery and an additional game number lottery may be performed.

  In the example illustrated in FIG. 20, when the AT continuation rate is 33%, the average number of continuation sets is set to 1.5, and the base AT difference number is determined to be 197.6. When the AT continuation rate is 50%, the average number of continuation sets is determined to be 2.0 sets, the base AT difference number is determined to be 264.8, and when the AT continuation rate is 70%, the average continuation number is set. When the number of sets is 3.3, the base AT difference number is determined to be 441.3, and when the AT continuation rate is 75%, the average continuation set number is set to 4.0 and the base AT difference number is set. If it is determined to be 529.5 and the AT continuation rate is 80%, the average number of continuation sets is set to 5.0, the base AT difference number is determined to be 661.9, and the AT continuation rate is 90%. , The average continuous set number is determined to be 10.0 sets and the base AT difference number is determined to be 1323.7. If the AT continuation rate is 92%, the average continuous set number is 12.5. As a set, the base AT difference number It is determined to be 654.7 sheets, if AT continuation rate of 95% and 100%, as it reaches the finite state limit, based AT difference number is determined to be 2400 sheets.

  Although the initial value of the number of remaining games is set to the number of games for one set, for example, 50G, it may be determined by the first AT-assigned game number lottery. In this case, as shown in FIG. 20, the base AT difference number may be predicted from the number of provided games (the initial value of the number of remaining games) determined in the lottery.

  In the example shown in FIG. 21, when the number of provided games is 50G, the base AT difference number is determined to be 132.4. If the number of provided games is 70G, the base AT difference number is determined to be 185.4, and if the provided game number is 100G, the base AT difference number is determined to be 264.8, and the provided game number is 150G. In some cases, the base AT difference number is determined to be 397.2, the number of provided games is 200G, the base AT difference number is determined to be 529.5, and the base AT difference number is determined to be 300G. If the number is determined to be 794.3 and the number of provided games is 500G, the base AT difference number is determined to be 1323.7, and if the number of provided games is 750G, the base AT difference number is 1985.6. When the number of provided games is 1000G, the base AT difference number is determined to be the upper limit of 2,400.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, a so-called AT machine in which the RT state is maintained in the bonus inside medium state. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a so-called A + ART machine that executes an advantageous state transition lottery in a bonus game started by a bonus prize may be used. In that case, the bonus combination may also be set as the specific combination, and the winning probability in the advantageous state transition lottery may be set for each specific combination.

  In addition, various design changes can be made to the above-described configuration within the scope of the matters described in the claims.
