Description

このようなＡＴ機能を有する遊技機として、例えば、特許文献１には、遊技者が有利となるような情報を報知可能な有利区間と、当該情報を報知しない非有利区間（通常区間）とを設け、有利区間が長期間にわたり継続した場合に（例えば、差枚数が２４００枚を超える場合に）、残りのゲーム数に関わらず強制的に有利区間を終了させるリミット処理を行う遊技機が開示されている。このような遊技機によれば、有利区間中に遊技者が得る利益を一定の範囲に収めることができるため、遊技の射幸性が徒に高まってしまうことを抑制することができる。As a gaming machine having such an AT function, for example, in Patent Document 1, an advantageous section capable of notifying information that is advantageous to the player and a non-advantageous section (normal section) not notifying the information are provided. Disclosed is a gaming machine that performs limit processing for forcibly ending the advantageous section regardless of the number of remaining games when the advantageous section continues for a long period of time (for example, when the difference number exceeds 2400). ing. According to such a gaming machine, since the profit obtained by the player during the advantageous section can be kept within a certain range, it is possible to prevent the gambling of the game from being unnecessarily increased.

ところで、有利区間と通常区間とを有する遊技機では、有利区間中に報知を行わない（又は行う頻度が低い）期間と報知を行う期間とを設けることがある。なお、このような遊技機では、有利区間中の報知を行う期間が、メダルが増加する増加区間として機能し、遊技者にとって有利な状態となるものの、有利区間中の報知を行わない期間は、必ずしも遊技者にとって有利な状態とはならない。このように有利区間中に報知を行わない期間と報知を行う期間とを設けることで、有利区間中の遊技を多様化することができるものの、報知を行わない期間は有利区間中であることに変わりはないため、当該期間が長期間にわたり継続してしまうと、その後、報知を行う期間に移行できたとしても、上述のリミット処理に掛かってしまい、遊技者の損失感を高めてしまうという問題があった。By the way, in a gaming machine having an advantageous section and a normal section, a period during which notification is not performed (or the frequency of notification is low) and a period during which notification is performed may be provided during the advantageous section. In such a gaming machine, the period during which the notification is performed during the advantageous section functions as an increasing section in which medals increase, which is advantageous for the player, but the period during which the notification during the advantageous section is not performed is It is not always advantageous for the player. By providing a period in which notification is not performed and a period in which notification is performed in the advantageous section in this way, it is possible to diversify the games in the advantageous section, but the period in which notification is not performed is in the advantageous section. Since there is no change, if the period continues for a long period of time, even if it is possible to shift to the notification period after that, the above-mentioned limit processing will be applied, which will increase the player's sense of loss. was there.

本発明はこのような問題に鑑みてなされたものであり、射幸性を適切に抑制しつつも、遊技者の損失感を軽減可能な遊技機を提供することを目的とする。The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine capable of reducing a player's sense of loss while appropriately suppressing gambling.

本発明に係る遊技機は、複数の識別情報を変動表示可能な可変表示部と、所定の契機に基づいて当籤役を決定可能な役決定手段と、前記可変表示部の変動表示を停止させるための停止操作を検出可能な停止操作検出手段と、前記役決定手段により決定された当籤役と前記停止操作検出手段により検出された停止操作態様に応じて前記可変表示部の変動表示を停止可能な停止制御手段と、を備え、遊技を行う遊技状態として、遊技者にとって有利な情報を報知不能な通常区間と、遊技者にとって有利な情報を報知可能な有利区間と、を有し、前記有利区間は、遊技者にとって有利な情報を報知することで遊技価値が単位遊技当たりに第１期待値だけ増加する第１状態と、遊技者にとって有利な情報を報知することで遊技価値が単位遊技当たりに前記第１期待値とは異なる第２期待値だけ増加する第２状態とを少なくとも含むものであり、前記通常区間において移行条件を満たすと、前記通常区間から前記有利区間に移行させる状態制御手段と、前記有利区間に関する数値を計数可能な計数手段と、前記計数手段が計数する前記数値がリミット閾値に達すると、前記有利区間を継続可能な残り期間に関わらず前記有利区間を終了して、前記通常区間に移行させるリミット手段と、を更に備え、前記計数手段は、前記有利区間の終了時に計数している前記数値を初期化し、前記状態制御手段は、前記通常区間において前記役決定手段による決定が特定の決定結果である場合、遊技状態を前記有利区間に移行することなく前記通常区間のまま維持し、前記役決定手段により決定可能な当籤役には、遊技価値の付与に係る小役が含まれ、前記状態制御手段は、前記通常区間、かつ、前記通常区間から前記有利区間に移行させる旨を決定可能な遊技状態では、当該遊技状態において当籤役として決定可能な前記複数の小役のうちの何れが当籤役として決定された場合であっても、必ず、前記通常区間から前記有利区間に遊技状態を移行し、前記第１状態と前記第２状態とでは、遊技者にとって有利な情報を報知する確率が異なることを特徴とする。 The gaming machine according to the present invention has a variable display unit capable of variablely displaying a plurality of identification information, a combination determining means capable of determining a winning combination based on a predetermined opportunity, and a variable display of the variable display unit. It is possible to stop the variable display of the variable display unit according to the stop operation detecting means capable of detecting the stop operation of the above, the winning combination determined by the combination determining means, and the stop operation mode detected by the stop operation detecting means. The advantageous section is provided with a stop control means, and has a normal section in which information advantageous to the player cannot be notified and an advantageous section in which information advantageous to the player can be notified as a gaming state in which the game is performed. Is the first state in which the game value increases by the first expected value per unit game by notifying the information advantageous to the player, and the game value increases by the first expected value per unit game by notifying the information advantageous to the player. It includes at least a second state in which the second expected value is different from the first expected value, and when the transition condition is satisfied in the normal section, the state control means for shifting from the normal section to the advantageous section. When the numerical value counted by the counting means reaches the limit threshold, the advantageous section is terminated regardless of the remaining period during which the advantageous section can be continued. Further provided with a limit means for shifting to the normal section, the counting means initializes the numerical value counted at the end of the advantageous section, and the state control means determines by the combination determining means in the normal section. Is a specific decision result, the winning combination that can be determined by the combination determining means is a small winning combination related to the addition of the gaming value, while maintaining the gaming state as the normal section without shifting to the advantageous section. In the gaming state including the normal section and in which it can be determined to shift from the normal section to the advantageous section, the state control means of the plurality of small winning combinations that can be determined as winning combinations in the gaming state. Regardless of which of the winning combinations is determined, the gaming state is always shifted from the normal section to the advantageous section, and the first state and the second state are information advantageous to the player. It is characterized in that the probability of notifying is different.

本発明によれば、射幸性を適切に抑制しつつも、遊技者の損失感を軽減可能な遊技機を提供することができる。 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a gaming machine capable of reducing a player's sense of loss while appropriately suppressing gambling.
