Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine.

  Conventionally, when the difference number exceeds a predetermined number, there has been known a gaming machine that performs an AT lottery or an additional lottery by changing to a table having a lower winning probability of an AT game or an extra (see paragraph number “Patent Document 1”). 0120 ").

JP 2015-119888 A

However, if the difference number exceeds a predetermined number and an AT lottery or an additional lottery is performed using a lottery table with a low winning probability, the player's interest will be reduced and the AT cannot be enjoyed to the end. There was a problem.
Therefore, the inventions described in the respective claims have been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the conventional technology, and the objects thereof are as follows.

That is, the present invention relates to a gaming machine capable of improving interest in the latter half by making the latter half more advantageous to the player than the first half.
Further, the present invention relates to a gaming machine capable of playing a variety of games by changing end conditions of the first half and the second half to different types of conditions.

Each invention described in each claim is made to achieve the above-mentioned object, and the features of each invention will be described below using embodiments of the invention shown in the drawings.
A gaming machine (10) according to the present invention includes at least a first state and a second state capable of shifting from the first state, wherein the first state is a normal state and is capable of shifting from the normal state. Yes, including an advantageous state that is more advantageous to the player than the normal state, wherein the advantageous state is a first half part that can be executed until a predetermined value of game value is obtained, and a predetermined number of games after the end of the first half part And a second half part that can be executed until the second part is executed. In the first half part, the number of games that can be executed in the second half part can be added, and the second half part shifts from the first half part to the second state. It is characterized by high expectations.

Here, the “first state” includes, but is not limited to, a normal state normally performed, a chance zone state, one mode of an assist time state and an assist replay time state, and the like, and can be shifted to the second state. Any condition is acceptable.
The “second state” includes, but is not limited to, an assist time state and an assist replay time state state different from the first state.

By making the second half part more advantageous to the player than the first half part, it is possible to provide a gaming machine (10) capable of improving the interest until the end of the second half part.
Also, by changing the type of the end condition between the first half part and the second half part, it is possible to provide a gaming machine (10) capable of playing a variety of games.

In addition, with such a configuration, when the first half part is set to the high state during the transition period to the second state and the second half part is set to the low state, the state may be changed to “the second state after the end of the first half part”. In the case where the number of games in the second half part is increased, the game in which the attitude of the transition period to the second state is lower becomes longer, and the player in the second half part This will cause a decrease in interest. "
Similarly, when the first half part can be executed until the predetermined number of games is consumed, and the second half part can be executed until the game value is obtained for a predetermined value, the result of the lottery result of the second half part may occur. In some cases, the difference in the length of the latter half part becomes too large and the balance of the game is lost. "

  Further, as a specific example of the gaming machine (10) according to the present invention, in the first state, when a predetermined condition is satisfied, a plurality of players having different degrees of expectation for giving a privilege to the player during the second state are provided. Among the stages, a stage lottery is performed in which a stage to be used when the state is shifted to the second state is determined by lottery.

  Here, the "privilege" is to notify the player of the correct answer pressing order when the stop switch is operated in a predetermined correct pressing order by the lottery and the winning is achieved. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and any type may be used as long as it is beneficial to the player, such as paying out medals to the player or making a special effect visible.

Thereby, before shifting to the second state, a stage to be used when shifting to the second state can be determined, and a gaming machine capable of improving interest before the second state starts. (10) can be provided.
In order to achieve such an effect, the determined stage may be notified to the player.

  In addition, as a specific example of the gaming machine (10) according to the present invention, the second state can execute a predetermined game section, and whether or not to continue the second state during the second state is determined. When the continuous lottery is performed and it is determined that the second state is to be continued by the continuous lottery, the next game is shifted to the third state. In the third state, at least the stage is set to the expected degree. A stage promotion lottery for whether or not to be promoted to a higher stage is performed. After the end of the third state, the predetermined section is reset by using the stage determined by the stage promotion lottery, and It is characterized in that two states are executed.

  Here, the “third state” includes, but is not limited to, one mode of an assist time state or an assist replay time state different from the first state and the second state, and the “second state”. It is sufficient if the state shifts by winning the continuous lottery performed in.

  Thereby, when it is determined that the second state is continued, the stage can be promoted in the shifted third state, and the third state is not simply a connection state until returning to the second state. It is possible to provide a gaming machine (10) capable of making a game rich in interest.

Further, as a specific example of the gaming machine (10) according to the present invention, further, before shifting to the second state, the game machine shifts to a specific state of a predetermined number of games, and the continuation rate of the continuous lottery in the specific state. It is impossible to inform the player of the correct order of pushing when the stop switch is operated by the lottery and the stop switch is operated in the predetermined order of pushing the correct answer. A non-advantaged section and an advantageous section that can be shifted from the non-advantaged section and that can notify the player of the pressing order of the correct answer, and at least the second state and the third state include the Belonging to the advantageous section, the predetermined number of games in the specific state is, for the first time after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, when transitioning to the specific state for the second time or later, the transition to the specific state. Is set shorter than if It is characterized by having.
Thus, if the number of games is long when the game shifts to the second time or later, there is a possibility that the interest of the player may be reduced, and the gaming machine ( 10) can be provided.

Further, as a specific example of the gaming machine (10) according to the present invention, further, it is not determined that the second state is continued by the continuous lottery performed during the second state, and the stage is a lowermost stage. In other cases, the stage is demoted by one stage and the second state is continued.
Thereby, even if it is not determined that the second state is continued, if the stage related to the expectation of the privilege given in the second state is other than the lowest level, the second state is continued. It is possible to provide a gaming machine (10) capable of improving the interest of the player by linking the privilege in the second state and the continuation of the second state.

Further, as a specific example of the gaming machine (10) according to the present invention, further, it is not determined that the second state is to be continued by the continuous lottery performed in the second state, and the stage is at the lowest stage. In some cases, the second state is terminated, and the state shifts to the first state.
Thereby, even if the stage in the second state is the lowest stage, it is possible to provide a gaming machine (10) capable of causing the player to throb and throb while paying attention to the continuous lottery performed in the second state.

Next, the winning combination group will be described with reference to FIGS.
The winning combination groups are not limited to those shown in FIGS.
11 to 13 show a plurality of predetermined winning combination groups, and each winning combination group is composed of one combination or a combination of a plurality of combinations.

Therefore, when the winning combination group is composed of a plurality of winning combinations, it means that a plurality of winning combinations of the winning combination group have been won simultaneously (overlapping winning).
Then, in the present embodiment, the role lottery means 210 determines whether or not any of the winning role groups shown in FIGS. 11 to 13 is won by the role lottery.

  As shown in FIG. 11, in the winning combination group including the bonus transfer combination, “RBB1” where RBB1 wins, “RBB2” where RBB2 wins, “RBB3” where RBB3 wins, and “RBB4” where RBB4 wins , RBB5 to win, and “RBB6” to win RBB6.

  As shown in FIG. 12, the winning combination group “HZ” (losing) indicates a case where no other winning combination group has been won.

  As shown in FIG. 12, the winning combination group including the replay combination includes “NXP1” where RP_1 to RP_14 wins, and “NXP2” where RP_1 to RP_14, RP_15 and RP_16 win.

  As shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, the winning combination group including the small combination includes “NCH” in which CH_1 to CH_3 (irregular cherry) and CHL_1 to CHL_15 (weak cherry: see FIG. 8) are elected, and CH_1 to CH_3. (Anomalous cherry: see FIG. 8), “HCH” that CHH_1 to CHH_13 (strong cherry: see FIG. 8) wins, “WM” that WM_1 to WM_8 (watermelon: see FIG. 8) wins, AT_1 to AT_6 (push order) "PZ", WM_1 to WM_8 (watermelon), AT_1 to AT_6 (push order correct answer: see FIG. 8), and ALL2 (all the payouts with one payout number) are won. ALL1 ”, AT_1, ATL_1, ATL_2, ATC_1 to ATC_4, ATR_1 to ATR_4, ONE_1 to ONE_6,“ ATA1 ” Such as are provided.

Here, for example, the winning combination group “ATA1” has different winning combinations depending on the pressing order of the stop switch 50, and AT_1 is established (winning) when the pressing order of the stop switch 50 is correct. If the pressing order is correct, ten medals are paid out, and if the pressing order is incorrect, another medal is established (winning) and one medal is paid out (FIG. 9, (See FIG. 10).
In addition, the notation such as “LCR is correct and AT_1” in FIG. 12 and FIG. 13 indicates that when the winning combination group “ATA1” is won, the correct answer in the pressing order of the stop switch 50 is LCR, that is, the left stop switch L, The order of the middle stop switch C and the right stop switch R indicates that when the stop switch 50 is operated in the order of pressing the correct answer, AT_1 is established (winning).

  Note that a winning combination group that simultaneously wins a plurality of winning combination groups in the combination lottery may be set.

Next, with reference to FIG. 14, a description will be given of a winning combination group which is randomly selected for each gaming state.
As shown in FIG. 14, in each winning combination group, whether or not the combination lottery is performed by the combination lottery means 210 is set according to the gaming state (see FIG. 16) and the number of inserted coins.

  FIG. 14A shows a winning combination group to be a lottery target when the player operates the max bet switch 34. Therefore, when the specified number is a game state of two or three (RT0, RT1, RT2), the number of inserted cards is three, and when the specified number is a game state of three (RBB1, RBB2, RBB4, RBB4). Indicates that the number of inserted cards is three, and in the gaming state where the specified number is two (RBB5, RBB6), the number of inserted cards is two.

FIG. 14B shows a winning combination group that is a target of a lottery when the player inserts two cards when the prescribed number is two or three.
For example, if the max bet switch 34 is operated in the gaming state “RT0” even in the case of the bonus transfer combination, the winning combination groups “RBB1” to “RBB4” are to be selected by lottery. When 35 is operated twice, the winning combination groups “RBB5” and “RBB6” are to be selected.

(Reel control means 220)
The reel control means 220 is a means provided in the main control board 200, and is for stopping the rotation of each of the rotating reels 62. The reel control means 220 stops the rotation of each rotary reel 62 based on the lottery result of the role lottery means 210 and the corresponding rotation position of the rotary reel 62 when each stop switch 50 is operated. It should be noted that the reel control means 220 may determine whether or not the order in which the stop switches 50 are stopped (the order in which they are pressed) conforms to a predetermined condition, if necessary, as a condition for stopping. The processing by the reel control means 220 is performed in step S12 (see FIG. 18) described later.

(Stop symbol determining means 230)
The stop symbol determining means 230 is a means provided in the main control board 200, and is used for storing a combination of the symbols 61 on the activated line 86 when all the rotating reels 62 are stopped and for determining a winning or the like. is there. The process by the stop symbol determining means 230 is performed in step S13 (see FIG. 18) described later.

(Payout control means 240)
The payout control means 240 is for performing predetermined processing such as medal payout based on the determination result of the stop symbol determination means 230. The payout control means 240 pays out medals when it is determined as a result of the determination by the stop symbol determination means 230 that the small winning combination is winning. The processing by the payout control means 240 is performed in step S14 (see FIG. 18) described later.

(Game control means 250)
The game control means 250 controls a game state.
More specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, the game control means 250 roughly includes normal game state control means 251, a bonus inside medium state control means 252, and a bonus game state control means 253.

(Normal game state control means 251)
The normal game state control means 251 controls the “normal game state” (see FIG. 16). Here, the normal game state refers to a state other than the inside bonus state by the inside bonus state control means 252 and the bonus game state by the bonus game state control means 253.

(Bonus internal state control means 252)
The inside bonus state control means 252 controls the “inside bonus state” (see FIG. 16). Here, the bonus inside middle state is entered when the bonus transfer combination “RBB1” to “RBB6” is won, but the combination of the symbols 62 corresponding to the bonus transfer combination cannot be stopped and displayed on the activated line 86. .

(Bonus game state control means 253)
The bonus game state control means 253 controls the “bonus game state” (see FIG. 16).
The bonus game state is shifted by winning the bonus transfer combination “RBB1” to “RBB6” and stopping and displaying the combination of the symbols 61 corresponding to the bonus transfer combination on the activated line 86.

Here, “RBB1” to “RBB4” end with payout of medals exceeding a predetermined number, for example, 36, and “RBB5” and “RBB6” end with payout of medals exceeding a predetermined number, for example, five. finish.
Then, after the bonus game state ends, the game mode shifts to the normal game state.

(Advantageous section control means 260)
The advantageous section control means 260 controls an advantageous section where an operation mode of the stop switch 50 described later with reference to FIG.
Then, an effect or the like for informing the pressing order of the stop switch 50 is executed using the effect control means 320 described later.

  Further, the advantageous section control means 260 wins a shift lottery from “non-advantageous section” to “advantageous section” performed when a predetermined condition is satisfied, for example, when a predetermined combination is won by a lottery lottery. This causes the transition from the “non-advantageous section” to the “advantageous section” (see FIG. 15).

  In addition, it is not limited to the case where it is determined that a shift to an advantageous section is made by a lottery (advantageous section shift lottery) executed when the player wins a predetermined combination by the role lottery. By winning the determined combination, it may be possible to shift from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section without performing the advantageous section shift lottery.

  In addition, as described later, the advantageous section control means 260 executes various lotteries in each state belonging to the advantageous section.

Further, the advantageous section control means 260 starts counting the number of games when shifting to the advantageous section, and the counted number of games is a predetermined number of games determined by a ceiling game number lottery described later, for example, 666 games, Is reached, a transition is made to a first AT state described later (so-called ceiling).
Here, before reaching a predetermined number of games, for example, 666 games, a lottery (first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state) or a first AT state transition lottery (hereinafter, “first AT state transition lottery”) as to whether or not to transition to the AT state described later. If the CZ point obtained by the CZ point lottery reaches a predetermined CZ point, the number of games counted by the ceiling game number counter is determined when the first AT state transition lottery (points) is won. Is initialized.
Note that the predetermined number of games is not limited to a case determined by lottery, and may be a predetermined number of games.

The ceiling game number counter counts only the number of games played with three bets, and does not count the number of games played with two bets.
This is because, as will be described later, only the game with three bets is performed on the advantageous section, for example, the advantageous section shift lottery and the push order navigation are performed. The number of games played in the game is not counted.

In the advantageous section, an upper limit is set for a game section in which a game can be played, and when a predetermined upper limit game number, for example, 1500 games is consumed after shifting from the non- advantageous section to the advantageous section, the upper limit of the advantageous section is set. When the number of games has been reached, a transition is made from the advantageous section to the non- advantageous section.
Further, in the present embodiment, even after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section and before the predetermined upper limit game number (1500 games) is exhausted (before reaching the upper limit game number of the advantageous section), When a predetermined predetermined number of payouts (for example, so-called MY2400) are obtained, the transition from the advantageous section to the non-advantageous section is performed even before the upper limit game number is exhausted.

(Transmitting means 270)
The transmitting means 270 is for transmitting a signal to the sub-control board 300.

(Sub control board 300)
As shown in FIG. 5, the sub-control board 300 includes the receiving unit 310 and the effect control unit 320. Details of each means will be described later.

With the above configuration, the sub-control board 300 receives a signal from the main control board 200 and performs an effect accompanying the progress of the game.
More specifically, the sub-control board 300 outputs data defining the turning on and off of the LED to an LED driving circuit (not shown) for driving the effect lamp 78, and outputs sound from the speaker 72. It outputs data defining audio to be output to an audio output circuit (not shown) for outputting and video data to be output to a liquid crystal control board (not shown) for driving the display device 84 Or output data that specifies

(Reception means 310)
The receiving means 310 receives a signal from the transmitting means 270.

(Production control means 320)
The effect control means 320 controls the effect of the gaming machine 10 according to the gaming state shown in FIG. 16 and the state of the advantageous section shown in FIG.

  In addition, during the advantageous section shown in FIG. 17, the effect control unit 320 receives the command for notifying the pressing order of the stop switch 50 from the advantageous section control unit 260 of the main control board 200, and presses the stop order of the stop switch 50. Can be performed.

  Specifically, on the screen of the display device 84 corresponding to the position of each stop switch 50 (specifically, the position of the rotating reel 62 corresponding to each stop switch 50), a plurality of images or videos (for example, “1 , "2" and "3") to indicate the pressing order. After that, every time the stop switch 50 is operated, the portion corresponding to the operated position of the stop switch 50 is deleted (or changed to an image not indicating the order) in the image or video indicating the pressing order.

(Explanation of game state using FIG. 16)
Next, the gaming state will be described with reference to FIG.
The game state is managed by the main control board 200, and is roughly divided into a normal game state, a bonus inside medium state, and a bonus game state as shown in FIG.

(Normal game state)
The normal game state is controlled by the normal game state control means 251.
The probability of winning the replay combination in the normal gaming state is normally set to (1 / 7.3).
If the winning combination is won by the lottery in the normal gaming state and the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus shifting combination is not stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, the state shifts from the normal gaming state to the inside bonus state and stops. If it is displayed, the game shifts to the bonus game state.

The prescribed number of normal gaming states is two or three, and when the max bet switch 34 is operated, three medals are inserted.
In the normal gaming state, as shown in FIG. 14B, only when the number of bets is two, the winning combination groups “RBB5” and “RBB6” are subjected to the role lottery. It is desirable to operate the single bet switch 35 twice without operating the max bet switch 34 to reduce the number of inserted sheets to two.
This is because, as will be described later, in the gaming state “RT1” (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F), the advantageous section shift lottery is not performed regardless of whether the number of bets is three or two. Winning role that is a bonus transfer role of the gaming state “RT2” so as not to shift to “RT1” (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F) and to shift to the gaming state “RT2” where the advantageous section shift lottery is possible. This is because the groups “RBB5” and “RBB6” are included in the lottery target.

  If the number of bets is three while staying in the normal gaming state, processing relating to an advantageous section, for example, a lottery transition to an advantageous section or a pushing order navigation is performed, but if the number of bets is two, an advantage is obtained. No processing is performed for the section.

(Inside bonus state)
The bonus inside medium state is controlled by the bonus inside medium state control means 252, and in the normal gaming state, the bonus winning combination "RBB1" to "RBB6" (see FIG. 11) is won, and the bonus transferring combination "RBB1" to "RBB1" to "RBB1" to "RBB1". If the symbol combination corresponding to “RBB6” is not stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, the processing is shifted to.

Specifically, when the bonus transfer role “RBB1” is won, the bonus transfer role is “RBB1F (RT1)”. When the bonus transfer role “RBB2” is won, the bonus transfer role is “RBB2F (RT1)” and the bonus transfer role “RBB3”. In the case of winning, "RBB3F (RT1)", in the case of winning the bonus transfer role "RBB4", "RBB4F (RT1)", in the case of winning of the bonus transfer role "RBB5", "RBB5F (RT2)". When the bonus transfer combination "RBB6" is won, the transfer to "RBB6F (RT2)" is made.
The probability of winning the replay combination in the bonus inside medium state is set higher than in the normal gaming state.

  The prescribed number of the inside bonus state is two or three, and when the max bet switch 34 is operated, three medals are inserted.

Also, among the bonus inside middle states, if the number of bets is three while staying in “RBB1F (RT1)”, “RBB2F (RT1)”, “RBB3F (RT1)”, or “RBB4F (RT1)”, it is advantageous. In the case where the processing relating to the section, for example, the advantageous section shift lottery or the pushing order navigation is not performed and the number of bets is two, similarly, the processing relating to the advantageous section is not performed.
In the bonus inside state, if the player is staying at “RBB5F (RT2)” or “RBB6F (RT2)” and has three bets, the process relating to the advantageous section, for example, the advantageous section shift lottery or the pushing order Navigation is performed, but when the number of bets is two, the process relating to the advantageous section is not performed.

In the bonus inside medium state “RBB5F (RT2)” and “RBB6F (RT2)”, when the number of bets is three, the reel control means 220 prevents the corresponding symbol combination from being stopped and displayed on the activated line 86. Is set to
However, when the number of bets is two, the corresponding symbol combination is set to be stop-displayable on the activated line 86 by the reel control means 220, but as shown in FIG. In the states “RBB5F (RT2)” and “RBB6F (RT2)”, the winning combination group “HZ (losing)” is not a target of the role lottery, and another winning combination group is always won. In the means 220, since the pull-in control is performed with the small combination and the replay being given priority over the symbol 61 corresponding to the bonus transfer combination "RBB5" and "RBB6" (so-called small combination priority control, replay priority control), the bonus transfer is performed. Since the symbol combinations of the roles "RBB5" and "RBB6" are not stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, the bonus inside middle states "RBB5F (RT2)" and "RBB6F (R If once the transition to 2) "is set so as not to migrate to other gaming state.

(Bonus game state)
The bonus game state is controlled by the bonus game state control means 253. In the present embodiment, the bonus transfer combination “RBB1” to “RBB6” (see FIG. 11) is won, and the bonus transfer combination “RBB1” to “RBB6”. Is shifted when the symbol combination corresponding to "" is stopped and displayed on the activated line 86.
The probability of winning the replay combination in the bonus game state is set to “0”.

  In the present embodiment, the bonus gaming state is “RBB1” that can be transferred when the bonus transfer role “RBB1” is won, “RBB2” that can be transferred when the bonus transfer role “RBB2” is won, and the bonus transfer. "RBB3" that can be transferred when winning the role "RBB3", "RBB4" that can be transferred when winning the bonus transfer role "RBB4", and "RBB5" that can be transferred when winning the bonus transfer role "RBB5" “RBB5” is provided with “RBB6” that can be transferred when the bonus transfer combination “RBB6” is won.

  As described above, in the bonus game state “RBB5” or “RBB6”, the corresponding symbol combination is not stopped and displayed on the activated line 86 in the bonus inside middle state. This is a state in which the game shifts only when the symbol combination corresponding to the game that has won “RBB5” or “RBB6” is stopped and displayed on the activated line 86.

Here, “RBB1” to “RBB4” end with payout of medals exceeding a predetermined number, for example, 36, and “RBB5” and “RBB6” end with payout of medals exceeding a predetermined number, for example, five. finish.
Then, after the end of the bonus game state, the state shifts to the normal game state.

In the case of staying in the bonus game state “RBB1” to “RBB4” and the number of bets is three, the processing relating to the advantageous section, for example, the advantageous section shift lottery and the push order navigation are not performed.
In the bonus game states “RBB1” to “RBB4”, since the prescribed number is three, the game cannot be played with two bets.

If the number of bets is two while staying in the bonus game states "RBB5" and "RBB6", the processing relating to the advantageous section, for example, the advantageous section shift lottery and the push order navigation are not performed.
In the bonus game states “RBB5” and “RBB6”, since the prescribed number is two, the game cannot be performed with three bets.

(Explanation of advantageous section using FIG. 17)
As shown in FIG. 17, when the stop switch 50 is operated in the pressing order, if the player wins the pressing role which is a prize, a "non-advantageous section" in which the pressing order cannot be notified to the player, If the stop switch 50 is operated in a predetermined pressing order by a lottery and the stop switch 50 is operated, it is possible to shift from the "unfavorable section", and if the player wins the pressing order that wins, the pressing order is given to the player There is an “advantageous section” that can be notified.

The “non-advantageous section” is a section excluding the “advantageous section”.
In the present embodiment, from the “non-advantageous section” to the “advantageous section”, in the present embodiment, a combination determined in advance by a combination lottery. As shown in FIG. 15, when the gaming state is “RT0” and the number of bets is three, , The winning combination group “NXP1”, “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM”, “ATA1” to “ATA12”, and “non-advantaged section” to “advantaged section” ”, And a transition is made by winning the advantageous section transition lottery.

  In the case where the gaming state is “RT1” (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F) and the number of bets is 3, even if the result of the role drawing is any one of the winning group, the advantageous section shift lottery is not performed. Like that.

  When the gaming state is “RT2” (RBB5F, RBB6F) and the number of bets is 3, the winning combination groups “NXP1”, “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM”, When "ATA1" to "ATA12" are won, an advantageous section shift lottery from the "non-advantageous section" to the "advantageous section" is performed, and the transition is made by winning the advantage section shift lottery.

  Also, when the number of bets is two, regardless of whether the gaming state is RT0, RT1, or RT2, the advantageous section shift lottery is not performed even if the result of the role lottery is any one of the winning combination groups. I have to.

  Here, in the gaming state “RT1” (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F), the betting number is not determined when the betting number is three or two, so that the player enters the gaming state “RT1”. (RBB1F, RBB2F, RBB3F, RBB4F) so as not to shift to "RT2" by operating the single bet switch 35 twice as described above in the normal gaming state "RT0". It will be a game to shift.

In the present embodiment, the winning probability of the advantage section shift lottery is set to a high probability, and the game is set to shift to the advantage section in several games of the non-advantage section.
In addition, the transition from the "non-advantageous section" to the "advantageous section" is not limited to the case where the transition is made by winning the advantageous section shift lottery performed when a predetermined combination is won by the role lottery. When a predetermined combination is won, the game may be shifted to the advantageous section without performing the advantageous section shift lottery.

Further, in the present embodiment, the section notification lamp 90 is set to be turned on after a so-called third stop of the game that has been won in a predetermined combination, which is a trigger for shifting to an advantageous section.
The lighting of the section notification lamp 90 is not limited to the above-described case, and may be turned on in other cases, for example, when shifting to a first AT state described later.

(Advantageous section)
The “advantageous section” is a section that is more advantageous to the player than the “non-advantaged section”, and includes an “advantageous section normal state” and an “AT state”.

  In addition, the advantageous section may include an additional state in which the number of games in the AT state is additionally determined by lottery.

Here, the section advantageous to the player is, for example, in a non-advantageous section, when the stop switch 50 is operated in a predetermined pressing order by a lottery, the player wins the pressing role that wins. Even in such a case, since the state where it was impossible to notify the player of the pressing order has changed from a state where it was not possible, or an AT state which is not executed in the non-advantaged section is executed, It is a section that is advantageous to the elderly.
Therefore, it is not necessary to be advantageous to the player throughout the “advantageous section”, and may not be advantageous to the player in a part of the “advantaged section”.

In addition, when the predetermined upper limit number of games, for example, 1500 games, is exhausted after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, it is determined that the upper limit game number of the advantageous section has been reached, and the transition from the advantageous section to the non-advantageous section is performed. I have to.
Therefore, the main control board 200 is provided with an upper limit game number counter, and counts the number of digested games after the transition to the advantageous section in order to determine whether or not a predetermined upper limit game number (1500 games) is reached.

In addition, even after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section and before the predetermined upper limit game number (1500 games) is consumed (before reaching the upper limit game number of the advantageous section), a predetermined predetermined number of games is determined. When a payout (for example, so-called MY2400) is acquired, the transition from the advantageous section to the non-advantageous section is made with this as an opportunity even before the upper limit game number is exhausted.
Therefore, the main control board 200 counts the number of coins and the number of payouts after the transition to the advantageous section in order to determine whether a predetermined number of payouts (so-called MY2400) is reached. .

At the time of transition to the advantageous section, (1) normal state type lottery, (2) ceiling game number lottery, and (3) benefit lottery are performed.
In addition, the lottery performed at the time of shifting to the advantageous section is not limited to the above-described lottery, and among the above-described lotteries, there may be a lottery that is not executed.
In addition, the lottery performed when shifting to the advantageous section is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but is not limited to this.

  (1) The normal state type lottery is to determine, by lottery, which of the advantageous section normal states will be shifted to “low accuracy”, “normal”, “high accuracy”, or “ultra high accuracy” to be described later. is there.

(2) In the ceiling game number lottery, the number of ceiling games is determined by lottery.
In the present embodiment, a value obtained by multiplying the numerical value determined by lottery from the numerical values of “1”, “3”, and “6” by “111” is set as the number of ceiling games.
For example, when “1” is determined by lottery, the “111” game is the number of ceiling games.

(3) In the benefit lottery, the benefit to be won in the advantageous section is determined first.
Here, the benefit is a type of a first AT state described later, and includes “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, and “REG”.
Here, as will be described later, the “different color BIG” is more advantageous to the player because the expected value of payout of the medal is higher than the “REG”, and the “same color BIG” is more favorable than the “different color BIG”. Since the probability of the lottery transition to the 2AT state is high, it is set advantageously for the player.

Then, when “same color BIG” and “different color BIG” are determined by lottery, a lottery is further performed to determine whether a type more advantageous than “same color BIG” and “different color BIG” can be obtained.
Specifically, maintaining "same color BIG", "different color BIG", changing to "higher same color BIG" or "higher different color BIG" which is more advantageous to the player than "same color BIG" or "different color BIG", Will be drawn.

(Normal condition of advantageous section)
The advantageous section normal state is an example of the normal state of the first state, and is a state excluding a special state such as the “AT state” in the “advantageous section”.
The advantageous section normal state is a state in which the non-advantageous section normal state of the non-advantageous section is continued, and an effect similar to the non-advantageous section normal state is performed by the effect control unit 320. That is, the difference between the non-advantageous section normal state and the advantageous section normal state is the difference between the staying section and the “non-advantageous section” or the “advantageous section”.

In the advantageous section normal state, “low accuracy”, “normal”, “high accuracy”, and “ultra high accuracy” having different degrees of expectation of shifting to the CZ state described later are provided.
Here, the degree of expectation of the transition to the CZ state is such that “low probability” is the lowest and “ultra high probability” is the highest.
In other words, in the sign shift lottery described later, the winning probability of the “sign” is set so that the “super high probability” is the highest and the “low probability” is the lowest. Conversely, the winning probabilities of “gase precursor” are set such that “very high probability” is the lowest and “low probability” is the highest.

In the advantageous section normal state, (1) 1st AT state transition lottery, (2) normal state type promotion lottery 1, (3) sign transition lottery, (4) CZ book sign game number lottery, (5) CZ gassing sign The number-of-games lottery and (6) the normal state type promotion lottery 2 are performed.
In addition, the lottery performed in the advantageous section normal state is not limited to the above-described lottery, and among the above-described lotteries, there may be a lottery that is not executed.
The lottery performed in the advantageous section normal state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but is not limited to this.

(1) The first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state) is a role determined in advance by the role lottery, for example, a winning role group “NCH”, “WM”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”. , And a lottery is performed to determine whether or not to shift to the first AT state.
In the present lottery, in the present embodiment, the higher the set value of the winning probability of the role lottery, the higher the winning probability, and the lower the set value, the lower the winning probability, but the present invention is not limited to this. Instead, the lottery may be performed with a uniform winning probability without depending on the set value.

  When the main lottery is won, the first AT state main precursor game number lottery is performed, and the number of games in the precursor state in which the precursor effect of performing the transition to the first AT state is performed is determined by the lottery. By digestion, the state shifts to the first AT state.

(2) The normal state type promotion lottery 1 is performed when the first AT state shift lottery (during the advantageous section normal state) is not won, and the number of advantageous section digestion games in the game is a predetermined value, for example, , “111”, “222”, “333”, and “444”, whether or not to be promoted by one step from “low accuracy” to “normal”, “normal” to “high accuracy”, etc. Regardless of which stage the stage is, it is determined by lottery whether or not to be promoted to “super high accuracy”.
Then, the state of the advantageous section normal state changes according to the lottery result.

(3) The sign shift lottery is performed at a timing after the lottery in the normal state type promotion lottery 1, and it is determined by the lottery whether or not to shift to the "forewar sign" or "gase sign" described later.
Here, the “foreboding sign” is a state in which the transition to the CZ state (chance zone state) has been determined, and the “gap sign” is a state in which the transition to the CZ state has not been decided.
Therefore, the sign transition lottery is also a transition lottery to the CZ state.
Note that the precursor shift lottery is not limited to being performed at the timing after the lottery of the normal state type promotion lottery 1, and may be performed before the normal state type promotion lottery 1 lottery.

(4) The CZ book precursor game number lottery is a lottery that is performed when “book precursor” is drawn in the precursor shift lottery, and determines the game number of the book precursor by lottery.
As the number of games is exhausted, a transition is made from the precursor to the CZ state as described later.

(5) The CZ gaseous omen game number lottery is a lottery performed when the “gasse omen” is drawn in the sign transition lottery, and determines the game number of the gaseous omen by lottery.
By exhausting the number of games, the game shifts from the omen to the advantageous section normal state as described later.

(6) In the normal state type promotion lottery 2, in the precursor transition lottery, there is a case where it is determined to shift to “Gase omen”, and in a case of “Loose” where neither the main omen nor the Gase omen is determined. This is a lottery to be performed. In the present embodiment, when a role determined in advance by the role lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM” is won. In the advantageous section normal state, it is determined by lottery whether or not to be promoted by one step from "low accuracy" to "normal", "normal" to "high accuracy", "high accuracy" to "super high accuracy". It is.
In addition, if the current stage of the advantageous section normal state is “ultra high accuracy”, it is not necessary to perform the main lottery, so it is not performed, but regardless of the result of the main lottery, “ultra high accuracy” is maintained. You may do it.

(A precursor state)
The precursor state is a state in which a stir-up effect to notify that there is a possibility of shifting to the CZ state is performed during the number of games determined by the CZ book precursor game number lottery and the CZ gaseer precursor game number lottery.
Then, by finishing the number of games determined by the lottery in the “foreboding state”, the state shifts to the “CZ state” in the case of “the foreboding”, and the “advantageous section normal state” in the case of the “forewarning”. Move to.

In addition, in the case of gaseous omen, the aforementioned first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state) is performed.
The lottery performed in the precursor state is not limited to the above.

(CZ state)
The CZ state is an example of the normal state of the first state. The CZ state is executed during a predetermined number of games, for example, 20 games, and has a higher degree of expectation to shift to the first AT state than the advantageous section normal state. Yes, specifically, the winning probability of the transition to the first AT state lottery (the first AT state transition lottery (during the CZ state)) is set higher than the first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state). It is in the state that it is.
The present invention is not limited to the case where the winning probability is set to be high, but may be such that the number of lotteries for shifting to the first AT state is increased.

In the CZ state, (1) first AT state transition lottery (during the CZ state), (2) CZ point lottery, (3) first AT state transition lottery (point), (4) benefit rewriting lottery (first AT state transition) Time), (5) benefit rewriting type lottery is performed.
In addition, the lottery performed in the CZ state is not limited to the above-described lottery, and among the above-mentioned lotteries, there may be a lottery that is not executed.
The lottery performed in the CZ state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but is not limited to this.

  (1) The first AT state transition lottery (during the CZ state) is a lottery performed from the eleventh game after the start of the CZ state and after the completion of 10 games, and determines whether or not to transition to the first AT state. In the present embodiment, the process is performed when a winning combination determined in advance by a lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NXP1” or “NXP2” is won.

  Here, by performing this lottery from the eleventh game in the CZ state, a predetermined effect, for example, a continuous effect over a plurality of games, can be executed for ten games after the start of the CZ state, so that the ten games can be executed. When the transition to the first AT state is determined in between, the effect is prevented from being terminated halfway.

If it is determined that the game will shift to the first AT state by this lottery (in the case of winning), the game will shift to the first AT state from the next game.
The transition from the next game to the first AT state is not limited, and the transition may be made after the CZ state ends. In such a case, after the start of the CZ state, the lottery may be performed without waiting for the completion of 10 games.

(2) The CZ point lottery is a lottery performed when the transition to the first AT state is not determined by the first AT state transition lottery (during the CZ state) (in the case of a loss), and the CZ points to be acquired, for example, 0 point, 1 point, 2 points, 3 points, and 4 points are determined by lottery.
Then, when a predetermined CZ point is obtained, the state shifts to the first AT state.

In addition, in the CZ point lottery, the lottery for determining whether or not to obtain CZ points is not performed, and the CZ points to be obtained are determined by lottery. This concept includes lottery.
Therefore, when 0 points are not included in the lottery target of the CZ point lottery, a lottery may be performed to determine whether or not to obtain CZ points prior to the CZ point lottery.

(3) First AT state transition lottery (point) is a lottery for determining whether or not to transition to the first AT state in the last game of the CZ state, based on the CZ points obtained by the CZ point lottery.
Then, the greater the number of acquired CZ points, the easier it is to decide to shift to the first AT state.

  If it is determined by this lottery to shift to the first AT state, the game shifts to the first AT state from the next game, and if it is not determined to shift to the first AT state, an advantageous section normal starts from the next game. Move to state.

  (4) In the benefit rewriting lottery (at the time of shifting to the first AT state), when a predetermined CZ point for shifting to the first AT state is obtained by the above-described CZ point lottery, the first AT state performed in the last game of the CZ state. This is a lottery performed when the transition to the first AT state is determined by the shift lottery (point), and a lottery is performed to determine whether to rewrite the benefit determined by the benefit lottery described above.

  (5) The benefit rewriting type lottery is performed when it is decided to rewrite the benefit by the benefit rewriting lottery (at the time of transition to the first AT state), and the rewriting to “same color BIG” or “different color BIG” is performed. You.

Here, in the case where the benefit determined by the benefit lottery is “same color BIG”, the rewriting lottery may rewrite to “different color BIG” which is more disadvantageous for the player than “same color BIG”.
In addition, when the benefit determined by the benefit lottery is “upper-same color BIG”, the rewriting lottery may rewrite to “different color BIG” which is more disadvantageous for the player than “upper same color BIG”.
Further, when the benefit determined by the benefit lottery is “different color BIG”, the rewriting lottery may rewrite to “upper same color BIG” which is more advantageous to the player than “different color BIG”.
As described above, the present invention is not necessarily limited to the case where the CZ state is rewritten to an advantageous state.

(AT state)
The “AT state” is a state that is more advantageous to the player than the “non-advantageous section”. When the state shifts to the “AT state”, a game (AT) in which the pressing order of the winning combination is notified (push order navigation) is started as a notification effect for assisting the winning of the predetermined combination, and the notified pressing is performed. By operating the stop switch 50 according to the order, it is possible to stop and display the combination of the winning small winning combination and the replaying winning combination. Therefore, a predetermined number of medals corresponding to the established small winning combinations are paid out.

  The “AT state” is to win the above-mentioned AT transition lottery (first AT state transition lottery (during the advantageous section normal state), first AT state transition lottery (during the CZ state), and first AT state transition lottery (point)). This is a state in which the CZ point acquired by the CZ point lottery reaches a predetermined CZ point, and the state is shifted.

In addition, in the “AT state”, the number of games whose counting is started after shifting from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section reaches the number of games (such as 666 games) determined by the above-mentioned ceiling game number lottery (so-called “66 state”). (Ceiling) to make the transition.
After the “AT state” ends, the state shifts to the non-advantageous section normal state.

In the present embodiment, the “AT state” includes a “first AT state”, an “AT rank determination zone”, a “second AT state”, and a “third AT state”.
It should be noted that the state provided in the “AT state” is not limited to the above-described state, and may include other states.

(1st AT state)
The first AT state is an example of an advantageous state of the first state. In the present embodiment, the first AT state includes “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “upper same color BIG”, “upper different color BIG”, and “REG”.
Note that an example of the advantageous state of the first state is not limited to the first AT state, and may be a non-AT state (a state other than the AT state) that can be shifted to the “AT state” with a high probability, that is, a chance zone. good. When the chance zone is an example of the first state as described above, the “CZ state” described above is not a “CZ state” to the AT state, but a state that can be shifted to the chance zone with a high probability, so to speak, Chance zone CZ state ".

Further, an example of the advantageous state of the first state is not limited to the first AT state, and may be another state in the AT state, for example, the second AT state or the third AT state.
Further, an example of the advantageous state of the first state is not limited to the first AT state, and may be of any type as long as it is a state in which a transitional lottery to the second AT state, which is an example of the second state, is performed. Absent. Therefore, it can be said that the state is a second AT state transition lottery state.

At the start of the first AT state, a so-called freeze for stopping the progress of the game is executed, and the type of the first AT state (same color BIG), “different color BIG”, “upper same color BIG”, “upper different color BIG”, “REG” )), A reel effect is executed.
Here, the reel effect performed according to the type of the first AT state includes executing a reel effect predetermined for each type of the first AT state, and a lottery probability predetermined for each type of the first AT state. And determining a lottery among a plurality of reel effects having different times and contents.
Thereby, it is also possible to provide gaming properties such as estimating the type of the first AT state from the executed reel effect.

  In the first AT state, after the second AT state transition lottery (during the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, higher different color BIG) or the second AT state transition lottery (during the REG), the first AT state ends. , Through the AT rank determination zone, to the second AT state. If no win is made, the state shifts to the non-advantageous section normal state after the end of the first AT state.

  In the first AT state, in the same-color BIG, different-color BIG, higher-order same-color BIG, and higher-order different-color BIG, the first half part that can be executed until the game value is obtained by a predetermined value, and the predetermined number of games after the end of the first half part are consumed. And a second half part that can be executed until it is completed.

  Here, "until a predetermined value of the game value is obtained" means a predetermined game value for the winning combination by the lottery, for example, a medal paid out to the player when the corresponding symbols are completed. Until a predetermined number of medals are obtained and a predetermined number of medals independent of the number of payouts are obtained.

As an example of obtaining a predetermined number of medals paid out to a player when the corresponding symbols are completed, as shown in FIG. 12, for example, as shown in FIG. When three symbols are paid out when the corresponding symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, "+3" is given (see FIG. 8).
Similarly, by winning the lottery, the winning combination group “NCH” is won, and when one symbol is paid out when the corresponding symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the activated line 86, “+1” is given. (See FIG. 8).

When the number of acquired medals reaches 60, the first half part ends and the process shifts to the second half part.
In the case of this example, it is possible to manage the game using the acquired number based on the actually paid out medals.
In addition, the management of the game using the acquired number based on the actually paid out medals includes the first half part when the difference number between the inserted number of medals and the paid out number of medals reaches a predetermined number, for example, 60. May be ended.

  Also, as an example of the number of medals that does not depend on the number of payouts, the winning combination groups “HZ”, “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, and “ALL2” are won by the lottery. In this case, that is, when there is no payout of medals or when the number of payouts is one, a game value of “−3” (the same number as the number of coins) is stored and stored, and the winning combination group “ If the player wins NXP1, NXP2, or WM, that is, if the player wins the replay role and the payout number of three, the player stores the game value of "0" and acquires the winning value. When the group “PZ” and “ATA1” to “ATA12” are won, the game value is stored as “+7” game values have been acquired.

When the number of medals stored as acquired reaches 60, the first half part ends and the process shifts to the second half part.
In the case of this example, management is performed in the same manner as in the case where execution is possible until the difference between the number of inserted medals and the number of paid out medals reaches a predetermined number without counting the number of medals actually paid out. It becomes possible.
In addition, the present invention is not limited to the case where the same management as the difference number is performed as in the present example. The difference number is used as it is, and when the difference number reaches 60 (so-called MY60), the first half part ends. Is also good.

  Further, the above-described example stores the game value as having acquired a game value substantially equal to the number of payouts regardless of whether the medals were actually paid out. As another example, a predetermined number of game values may be stored in the combination regardless of the number of payouts, such as three rare combinations and one small combination.

Here, in the present embodiment, the “same color BIG” can be executed, for example, until the first half part obtains 60 medals, and can be executed until the second half part completes 10 games.
The “unique BIG” can be executed, for example, until the first half obtains 60 medals, and can be executed until the second half has completed 10 games.
The “upper-same-color BIG” can be executed, for example, until the number of medals of 60 is acquired, and can be executed until the second half part has completed 10 games.
The “upper-different-color BIG” can be executed, for example, until the number of medals of 60 is acquired, and can be executed until the latter part has completed 10 games.

  Note that the “same color BIG” has a higher winning probability in a second AT state transition lottery probability up lottery (at the start of the first AT state), even if the end conditions are the same, as compared to the “different color BIG”. Further, since the winning probability of the second AT state transition lottery probability up lottery (at the end of the first half part) is set high, the probability of the transition lottery to the second AT state is increased, which is an advantageous state.

  The “higher-order same-color BIG” and the “higher-order different-color BIG” indicate a second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state), a second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part), and a second Since the winning probability of the 2AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) is set higher than “same color BIG” and “different color BIG”, “same color BIG”, “different color” BIG ".

Note that "REG" has no distinction between the first and second parts, and ends when the number of medals is 40. However, "REG" also includes the first and second parts. You may do it.
In the present embodiment, the end condition of the first half part is managed based on the number of obtained medals. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the difference number described above may be used.

In the first half part, the number of games that can be executed in the second half part can be added.
More specifically, as will be described later, the number of games in the second part is increased by performing a lottery in the second half part (during the first half part) and further in the second half part by a lottery in the second half part (during the second half part). A lottery is performed to determine whether or not to add.

The second half part is set to have a higher degree of expectation of transition to the second AT state than the first half part.
Specifically, as described above, as a result of the addition of the number of games in the second half part, the possibility of playing for a longer time than in the first half part increases, and a second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color) Since the number of lotteries of BIG and higher-order different colors BIG) increases, the degree of expectation of transition to the second AT state increases, and in addition to the later-described second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state), The second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part) is also performed, and the latter half part is in the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, higher different color BIG). There is a case where there is a high possibility that the lottery probability of the shift lottery to the 2AT state becomes high.

  Also, regardless of the lottery result of the second AT state transition lottery probability up lottery (at the end of the first half part), the lottery probability of the second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, higher same color BIG, higher different color BIG) is originally Since the latter part is set higher, the latter part is set to have a higher degree of expectation of transition to the second AT state than the former part.

In the present embodiment, the end condition is managed by the number of medals acquired in the first half of the first AT state and the number of games having a high attitude during the transition to the second AT state in the second half.
This means that when the first half part is in a state of a high transition period attitude to the second AT state and the second half part is in a low state, after the end of the first half part, a game having a low degree of expectation of transition to the second AT state continues. In addition, if the number of games in the second part is increased, the game having a lower attitude during the transition to the second AT state becomes longer, resulting in a decrease in the interest of the player in the second part. Because there is a point. When the first part is managed by the number of games, and the latter part is managed by the number of medals acquired in the game having a high attitude during the transition to the second AT state, the length of the latter part may be controlled depending on the result of the role drawing of the latter part. This is because there is a problem that the difference between the game numbers becomes too large and the balance of the game may be lost.
Also, if both the first half and the second half are managed by the number of medals acquired, the difference in the length of the second half will be too large, depending on the result of the role lottery. If the number is managed by the number, the difference in the number of obtained medals may be too large depending on the result of the winning lottery, and the game may be out of balance.

  In the first AT state, (1) an image pattern lottery, (2) a second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state), (3) a second half part game number added lottery (during the first half part), (4) ) 2nd AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part), (5) second half part game number addition lottery (during the second half part), (6) 2nd AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, (7) Second AT state transition lottery (during REG), (8) Stage promotion lottery (during REG).

The lottery performed in the first AT state is not limited to the above-described lottery, and among the above-mentioned lotteries, there may be a lottery that is not executed.
The lottery performed in the first AT state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but is not limited to this.

(1) The image pattern lottery is performed at the start of the first AT state, and a pattern for informing the set value is determined by the lottery.
The pattern for notifying the set value is a pattern indicating that the set value is odd, a pattern indicating that the set value is even, a pattern notifying that the set value is 2 or more, and a pattern indicating that the set value is 2 or more. Or a pattern for notifying that the number is 6, but is not limited thereto.

  In addition, the notification of the set value is executed immediately after the main lottery, but is not limited to this. At another timing, for example, when the information execution lottery is performed and the lottery is won, the first AT is executed. It may be executed at the end of the state, executed during the first AT state, or the like.

  (2) The second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state) is performed at the start of the same color BIG, the different color BIG, the upper same color BIG, and the upper different color BIG, and a second AT state transition lottery (the same color BIG, The lottery is performed to determine whether or not to increase the probability of the transfer lottery to the second AT state performed in the different color BIG, the upper same color BIG, and the upper different color BIG.

(3) The lottery of the second half part game (in the first half part) is performed in the first half part of the same color BIG, the different color BIG, the upper same color BIG, and the upper different color BIG, and the lottery of whether or not to add the game number of the second half part is performed. Is what you do.
Here, the number of games to be added is determined by lottery from among 5, 10, and 20.
In the present embodiment, the winning combination is performed by winning a predetermined winning combination group by a lottery, and the winning probability of the number of games to be added is set to be different for each winning combination group.
It is to be noted that the game is not limited to being performed by winning a predetermined winning combination group by a lottery drawing, but may be performed every game, or a game to be added regardless of the winning combination group won. The winning probabilities of the numbers may be the same.

  (4) In the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part), at the end of the first half part of the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG, the latter half part game number addition lottery is added. The second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) has not been performed, and the transition to the second AT state is not determined by the lottery described later. Like the second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state), the second AT state transition lottery (during the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, and higher different color BIG) is carried out to the second AT state lottery. Is performed to determine whether or not to increase the probability.

(5) The lottery for the second half part game number addition (during the second half part) is performed during the second half part of the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, and upper different color BIG, and a lottery for determining whether to add the second half part game number. Is what you do.
In the present embodiment, the winning combination is performed when a winning combination determined in advance by a lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “WM”, “HCH”, “SPA”, or “SPB” is won. The number of games is determined by lottery from among 5, 10, and 20, which are the same as the number of games in the latter half part game number addition lottery (during the first half part).

  In addition, the present invention is not limited to the case where a predetermined combination is won by a lottery, and may be performed every game. It is not limited to the same case as during the part), and may be more or less than the lottery (during the first half) added to the number of the latter part games.

(6) Second AT state transition lottery (during same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) is performed during same color BIG, different color BIG, higher same color BIG, higher different color BIG, and shifts to the second AT state. A lottery is performed to determine whether or not the lottery is required.
In the present embodiment, the process is performed when a winning combination determined in advance by a winning combination, for example, a winning combination group “NXP1” or “NXP2” is won.
In addition, as described above, the winning probability of the main lottery is as follows: when the player wins the second AT state transition lottery probability-up lottery (at the start of the first AT state) and the second AT state transition lottery probability-up lottery (at the end of the first half part), It has a higher probability than when it is not won.

The game is not limited to being performed by winning a predetermined combination by a lottery, but may be performed every game.
When the lottery is won, after the end of the latter half part, the game shifts to the second AT state via the AT rank determination zone.

Also, in the second AT state shift lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG), even when it is determined to shift to the second AT state, the same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, The process is continuously executed during the higher-order different color BIG. In this case, a lottery is performed as to whether or not the stage in the second AT state described later is promoted.
That is, when the first AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, upper different color BIG) is won, the transition to the second AT state is determined, and the second AT state is used. When the stage to be set is set to “1” and the second election is made, the stage in the second AT state is promoted from “1” to “2”. When the third election is made, the stage in the second AT state is changed to “1”. "2" is promoted to "3".

Note that the stage of the stage used when shifting to the second AT state determined by the lottery may be notified to the player.
In the case where the stage of the stage is notified to the player, before the transition to the second AT state, the player is focused on whether or not to promote the stage in which the degree of advantage of the second AT state changes, and the second AT state Before the start of the game, it is possible to improve the interest.

  In addition, when the first AT state transition lottery (during same color BIG, different color BIG, upper same color BIG, higher different color BIG) is won for the first time, the above described second AT state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the start of the first AT state), the second AT The probability increased in the state transition lottery probability increase lottery (at the end of the first half part) returns to the original probability, and the lottery for determining whether to promote the stage in the second AT state is performed with the original non-increased probability.

(7) The second AT state transition lottery (during the REG) is performed during the REG to perform a lottery to determine whether or not to transition to the second AT state.
In the present embodiment, a winning combination determined by a lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NXP1”, “NXP2”, “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM” has been won. Done if done.

In addition, among the above-mentioned predetermined combinations, for example, when a transition to the second AT state is determined in a game that has been won in the winning combination group “NXP1” or “NXP2”, a stage in a second AT state described later is set. It is set to “3”, and is set to “1” when the transition to the second AT state is determined for a game that has been won for another combination.
If the lottery is won, after the end of the “REG”, the state shifts to the second AT state via the AT rank determination zone.

(8) The stage promotion lottery (during the REG) is performed during the REG in which the transition to the second AT state is determined by the above-described second AT state transition lottery (during the REG), and whether or not the stage in the second AT state is promoted. The lottery is performed.
When the lottery is won, the stage is promoted to "2" when the stage is "1" and to "3" when the stage is "2".

(AT rank determination zone)
The AT rank determination zone is an example of a specific state, and is a state in which, when it is determined to shift to the second AT state in the first AT state, the state shifts before shifting to the second AT state. This is a state in which the continuation rate of the continuous lottery for determining whether to continue the executed second AT state is determined.

Here, the continuation rate of the continuous lottery for determining whether or not to continue the second AT state is determined by the rank. For example, the continuation rate of 40% for rank 0, the continuation rate of 45% for rank 1, and the continuation rate of rank 2 50%, Rank 3 has 55% continuation rate, Rank 4 has 60% continuation rate, Rank 5 has 65% continuation rate, Rank 6 has 70% continuation rate, Rank 7 has 75% continuation rate, and Rank 8 has 80% continuation rate , Rank 9 is set to a continuation rate of 85%, and rank 10 is set to a continuation rate of 90%. Then, in the AT rank determination zone, the continuation rate of the continuous lottery is determined by determining the rank by lottery as described later.
Note that the continuation rate is not limited to the example described above.

The number of games in the AT rank determination zone is from 11 games when shifting to the AT rank determination zone for the first time after shifting from the non-advantaged section to the advantageous section, and starting from 11 games when shifting to the AT rank determination zone after the second time. Are also set to seven short games.
That is, the number of games in the first AT rank determination zone, which has been determined to shift from the first AT state to the second AT state, is 11 games, and the number of games has not been won in the continuous lottery described later. Is determined to return to the second AT state by winning, the number of games when the game shifts to the AT rank determination zone after the second time is seven games.
In the case where the vehicle shifts from the advantageous section to the non-advantageous section and then shifts to the advantageous section again, the first AT rank determination zone is similarly set, that is, 11 games.

  In the present embodiment, the AT state is provided with an AT rank determination zone, and the continuation rate of the continuous lottery is determined. The rate may be determined.

  In the AT rank determination zone, (1) rank lottery and (2) rank promotion lottery (during the AT rank determination zone) are performed.

Note that the lottery performed in the AT rank determination zone is not limited to the above-described lottery, and among the above-mentioned lotteries, there may be a lottery that is not executed.
The lottery performed in the AT rank determination zone is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but is not limited to this.

(1) The rank lottery is performed at the start of the AT rank determination zone, and the rank for which the continuation rate is determined is determined by lottery.
In the present embodiment, among the above-mentioned ranks 0 to 10, 0 to 3 are determined by lottery.
The ranks 4 to 10 are determined by a lottery by a rank promotion lottery (in the AT rank determination zone) described later.

The rank determined by the lottery is reported to the player, but may not be reported.
In the case where the rank is notified to the player, it is possible to improve the interest of the player before the second AT state is started by asking the player whether to promote the rank at which the advantage of the second AT state changes. become able to.

(2) The rank promotion lottery (during the AT rank determination zone) is performed during the AT rank determination zone, and performs a rank promotion lottery to determine whether or not to promote the rank determined by the rank lottery to a rank with a higher continuation rate. It is.
In the present embodiment, the rank promotion lottery includes a case where the rank is promoted by one step and a case where the rank is promoted by two steps.
Further, when the rank is promoted by the main lottery, the player is notified of the promotion and the promoted rank, but may not be notified.

(2nd AT state)
The second AT state is an example of the second state, and has a plurality of stages with different degrees of expectation for giving a privilege to a player.
Here, as will be described later, in the case of winning the AT combination (winning combination group “ATA1” to “ATA12”) by the lottery during the second AT state, the “privilege” includes the correct answer of the selected AT combination. Notification of the pressing order is included.
The “expectation degree” includes a lottery probability of whether or not to give a privilege (a lottery probability of a navigation occurrence lottery described later).

  The “stage” includes a plurality of stages, in this embodiment, “1” to “3”, and is a second AT state transition lottery (same color BIG, different color BIG, higher-order same color BIG) which is an example of the stage lottery described above. , Upper-order BIG).

  The second AT state is a central state of the AT state, and the AT state may include only the second AT state.

  In the second AT state, a predetermined game section, in the present embodiment, 33 games can be executed. In the first half of the 29 games, a normal effect of the second AT state is executed. An effect of notifying that the number of games in the state is small or the result of the continuous lottery performed in the second AT state is executed.

In the second AT state, as will be described later, continuous lottery (second AT state continuous lottery 1, second AT state continuous lottery 2, and second AT state continuous lottery 3) is performed at a continuation rate based on the rank, and the continuous lottery is won. If so, the second AT state is terminated halfway, and the next game is shifted to a third AT state described later.
Therefore, the continuous lottery is also a transition lottery to the third AT state.
Then, after the end of the third AT state, the game section of the second AT state is reset, and the second AT state is not restarted from the first game, that is, from the game shifted to the third AT state. , The second AT state is started from the beginning of the predetermined game section.

  In addition, the second AT state started from the beginning is set when the rank is promoted by the rank promotion lottery (rank promotion lottery 1, rank promotion lottery 2, rank promotion lottery 3) described later performed in the third AT state. If the stage is promoted by the promoted rank and the stage promotion lottery (stage promotion lottery (during the first stage) or stage promotion lottery (during the second stage)), the second AT state starts at the promoted stage. Is done.

In addition, when the continuous lottery performed in the second AT state is won, the second AT state is terminated and the state shifts to the third AT state. However, the game shifts to the third AT state before the state shifts to the third AT state. The system moves to a sign that is suggested to the player after executing the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state.
The transition from the second AT state to the third AT state may be performed without executing the precursor.

In addition, when the continuous lottery performed in the second AT state is not won, after the end of the second AT state, a gaseous omen that suggests to the player to shift to the third AT state is digested for a predetermined time, and then the stage is re-started. If the lower stage is not “1”, that is, if the stage is “2” or “3”, the stage is downgraded by one stage, and the process shifts to the AT rank determination zone and shifts to the second AT state. When the stage is "1", which is the lowest stage, the state shifts to the non-advantageous section normal state.
That is, the numerical value indicating the stage of the stage also indicates the number of times the second AT state can be executed.

Specifically, if the stage is "3", the stage is demoted to "2", and the stage is set to "2" in the next second AT state, and if the stage is "2", the stage is "1". And the stage is set to "1" in the next second AT state.
Then, as will be described later, as the stage is demoted, the probability of notifying the player of the pressing order of the correct answer of the AT combination (the winning probability of the navigation occurrence lottery) is reduced as a benefit to the player.

Note that when the stage is “1”, which is the lowest stage, the state is not limited to the transition to the non-advantageous section normal state, and the state shifts to the pullback state in which the pullback lottery is performed again to determine whether to shift to the second AT state. You may do it.
In this case, by winning the pull-back lottery, the game shifts to the second AT state of the stage “1” via the AT rank determination zone, and if the pull-out lottery is not won, the game shifts to the non-advantageous section normal state. .

  In the second AT state, (1) the third AT state transition lottery, (2) the third AT state type lottery 1, (3) the third AT state type lottery 2, (4) the navigation occurrence lottery, and (5) the second AT state continuation. Lottery 1, (6) second AT state continuation lottery 2, (7) second AT state continuation lottery 3, are performed.

The lottery performed in the second AT state is not limited to the above-described lottery, and among the above-described lotteries, there may be a lottery that is not executed.
The lottery performed in the second AT state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but is not limited to this.

  (1) The third AT state transition lottery is performed at the start of the second AT state, and determines whether to transition to the third AT state after the end of the second AT state by lottery.

  (2) The third AT state type lottery 1 is performed at the start of the second AT state, and satisfies all of the following conditions: the stage is “1”, the rank is 0 to 5, and the number of AT digestion games is a predetermined number of times, for example, 150 or less. This is a lottery that is performed in this case, and determines whether or not to acquire “special REG” as the type of the third AT state.

By winning the main lottery, the type of the third AT state is set to “special REG”.
Here, the “AT digested game number” means the digested game number after the AT rank determination zone, but may be the digested game number after the first AT state.

(3) The third AT state type lottery 2 is performed at the start of the second AT state in the case where the above-mentioned third AT state type lottery 1 does not satisfy the conditions of the loss or the third AT state type lottery 1, and the third AT state is selected. The type is determined.
Here, although the type of the determined third AT state is described later, there are “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, and “upper-level REG”.

  Here, as will be described later, the “top REG” is more advantageous to the player than the “REG” because the rank is easily promoted by the rank promotion point lottery and the rank promotion lottery 2. Is also advantageous to the player because the expected value of payout of medals is higher for “unique BIG”, and “same color BIG” is ranked higher than “different BIG” by rank promotion point lottery and rank promotion lottery 2 Is set to be advantageous for the player because the player is easily promoted.

  (4) The navigation occurrence lottery is performed when the player wins the AT combination (winning combination group “ATA1” to “ATA12”) by the combination lottery in the second AT state, and is based on the lottery probability predetermined for each stage. It is determined by lottery whether or not to notify the player of the pressing order of the correct answer of the winning AT combination as a privilege.

For example, if the stage is "1", a lottery probability of 40% is set, if the stage is "2", a lottery probability of 60% is set, and if the stage is "3", 100%. Lottery probability is set.
By winning in this lottery, the pressing order of the correct answer of the AT combination is notified, and the player operates the stop switch 50 in accordance with the notified pressing order of the correct answer, thereby obtaining the winning combination groups “ATA1” to “ATA12”. Among the winning combinations included in the above, “AT_1” to “AT_6” are established (winning), and it becomes possible to obtain payout of ten medals (see FIG. 8).
The notification of the pressing order of the correct answer of the AT combination is executed by the display device 84 and the payout number display 88.
If the lottery is not won, the order of pushing the correct answer of the AT combination is not notified.

  Therefore, when the stage is “2” than when the stage is “1”, it is easier to win the navigation occurrence lottery when the stage is “3” than when the stage is “2”. The number of medals that can be acquired increases.

As described above, when the stage is “2” or “3” other than “1” at the bottom, the continuous lottery (second AT state continuous lottery 1, second AT state continuous lottery 2, second AT state continuous lottery 3). Even if the player does not win in ()), the stage is demoted by one stage and the second AT state is continued, so in the second AT state in which the one-stage stage has been demoted, the winning probability of the navigation occurrence lottery also decreases.
Therefore, it is possible to lower the winning probability of the navigation occurrence lottery and continue the second AT state.

  The lottery probability for each stage is not limited to the example described above.

Further, even if the user does not win the navigation occurrence lottery, the pressing order of the correct answer of the AT combination may be notified.
For example, if the stage is "1", if the winning combination group "HZ" is won by the winning lottery, or if the navigation occurrence lottery is not won, the next AT role ( In the game that the winning combination groups “ATA1” to “ATA12”) are won, the pushing order of the correct answer is always notified.
When the stage is "2", if the winning combination group "HZ" is won by the lottery, or if the navigator occurrence lottery is not won, the next game will be notified of the correct answer pressing order. I am trying to.

(5) The second AT state continuation lottery 1 is performed in the first 29 games of the second AT state, and is a continuation lottery for determining whether or not to continue the second AT state based on the rank.
In the present embodiment, this lottery is performed when a winning combination determined in advance by a winning lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM” is won. .

The game is not limited to being performed by winning a predetermined combination by a lottery, but may be performed every game.
Then, when the main lottery is won, a sign of the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state is executed, and then the state shifts to the third AT state.

  (6) The second AT state continuation lottery 2 is a continuation lottery performed in addition to the second AT state continuation lottery 1 during the second AT state, and is a combination determined in advance by a combination lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NXP1”, When the player wins “NXP2”, “PZ”, “ATA1” to “ATA12”, a continuous lottery is performed to determine whether or not to continue the second AT state based on the rank.

The game is not limited to being performed by winning a predetermined combination by a lottery, but may be performed every game.
Then, when the main lottery is won, a sign of the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state is executed, and then the state shifts to the third AT state.

(7) The second AT state continuation lottery 3 is a continuation lottery performed during the second AT state, and when the winning combination group “HZ” has been won by the role lottery, the second AT state based on the rank is continued. A continuous lottery of whether or not is performed.
This lottery is set so that if the winning combination group “HZ” is the first time, it is lost in the continuous lottery. If the winning combination group “HZ” is continuous, for example, if it is repeated twice, three times The setting is made so that there is a case where a continuous lottery is won, for example, in a case where the lottery is continued.
Then, when the main lottery is won, a sign of the number of games within the remaining number of games in the second AT state is executed, and then the state shifts to the third AT state.

(3rd AT state)
The third AT state is an example of the third state, and shifts by winning the continuous lottery (second AT state continuous lottery 1, second AT state continuous lottery 2, and second AT state continuous lottery 3) performed in the second AT state. As will be described later, the rank promotion lottery (rank promotion lottery 1, rank promotion lottery 2, rank promotion lottery 3) for determining whether or not to promote a rank to a rank with a higher continuation rate, and the stage is expected degree. Stage promotion lottery (stage promotion lottery (during the first stage) and stage promotion lottery (during the second stage)) as to whether or not to be promoted at a stage with a higher rank.
Then, after the end of the third AT state, the state shifts to the second AT state.

  Note that an example of the third state is not limited to the third AT state. If the state is shifted by winning the continuous lottery in the second AT state, which is an example of the second state, and if the stage promotion lottery is performed, the type is not limited. Regardless of the present embodiment, it is not necessary to be in the AT state as in the present embodiment. Therefore, it can be said that the stage is the second AT state stage promotion lottery state.

In the present embodiment, the third AT state includes “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, “higher order REG”, and “special REG”.
Here, the “same color BIG” can be executed, for example, until the first part acquires 130 medals, and can be executed until the second part finishes one game.
Here, the “unique BIG” can be executed, for example, until the first half part has obtained 130 medals, and can be executed until the second half part has completed one game.
"REG" can be executed, for example, until the first half obtains 50 medals, and can be executed until the second half completes one game.
The “top REG” can be executed, for example, until the first half obtains 50 medals, and can be executed until the second half finishes one game.
The “special REG” can be executed, for example, until the game has been played 20 times.

  The management of the end condition of the first half part is the same as the management of the end condition of the first half part in the first AT state described above, and the management may be performed based on the difference number instead of the medal acquisition number.

  Note that “same color BIG” is more advantageous than “different color BIG” because the winning probabilities of rank promotion point lottery and rank promotion lottery 2 described later are set higher even if the end conditions are the same. Has become.

  In addition, the “higher-order REG” is in an advantageous state because the winning probability of the later-described rank promotion point lottery and rank promotion lottery 2 is set higher than “REG”.

Also, at the start of the third AT state, a so-called freeze for stopping the progress of the game is executed, and the type of the third AT state (“same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, “high-order REG”, “special REG”) ), A reel effect is executed.
Here, in the reel effect performed in accordance with the type of the third AT state, a reel effect predetermined for each type of the third AT state may be executed, and a lottery probability predetermined for each type of the third AT state may be selected. And determining a lottery among a plurality of reel effects having different times and contents.
As a result, it is possible to provide a playability such as estimating the type of the third AT state from the executed reel effect.

  In the third AT state, (1) stage promotion lottery (during the first stage), (2) stage promotion lottery (during the second stage), (3) rank promotion point lottery, (4) rank promotion lottery 1, ( 5) Rank promotion lottery 2, (6) Rank promotion lottery 3, (7) 3rd AT state stock lottery, (8) Special REG game number addition lottery 1, (9) Special REG game number extra point lottery, (10) Special REG game number addition lottery 2 is performed.

The lottery performed in the third AT state is not limited to the above-described lottery, and among the above-described lotteries, there may be a lottery that is not executed.
The lottery performed in the third AT state is performed when the player operates the start switch 40, but is not limited to this.

  (1) The stage promotion lottery (during the first stage) is performed during the third AT state, and the current stage is “1” and the type of the third AT state is “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”. , "High-order REG", and a stage promotion lottery for determining whether or not to promote the stage.

By winning this lottery, the stage is promoted from “1” to “2”.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the lottery is performed in a case where a predetermined combination by the role lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NXP1” or “NXP2” is won, but the present invention is not limited to this. It may be performed when the role is won, or may be performed regardless of the result of the role lottery.

  (2) The stage promotion lottery (during the second stage) is performed during the third AT state, the current stage is “2”, and the type of the third AT state is “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”. , "High-order REG", and a stage promotion lottery for determining whether or not to promote the stage.

By winning this lottery, the stage is promoted from “2” to “3”.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the lottery is performed in a case where a predetermined combination by the role lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NXP1” or “NXP2” is won, but the present invention is not limited to this. It may be performed when the role is won, or may be performed regardless of the result of the role lottery.

  (3) The rank promotion point lottery is performed during the third AT state, and is performed when the type of the third AT state is “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, or “higher order REG”; This is a lottery to determine whether or not to acquire rank promotion points used in rank promotion lottery 1 described later.

Here, in the present embodiment, the winning probability of the main lottery is set to be different depending on the type of the third AT state.
For example, “same color BIG” is set higher than “different color BIG”, and “upper REG” is set higher than “REG”.
The present invention is not limited to the case where the winning probability is made different depending on the type of the third AT state, and the lottery may be performed with the winning probability irrespective of the type of the third AT state.

(4) Rank promotion lottery 1 is performed in the last game of the number part of the 3rd AT state whose type is “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, and “top REG”, and is obtained by rank promotion point lottery. A rank promotion lottery is performed based on the rank promotion points.
By winning this lottery, the rank is promoted by one level.

  (5) Rank promotion lottery 2 is performed when the type of the third AT state is “same color BIG”, “different color BIG”, “REG”, or “upper rank REG”, and the rank promotion point is a predetermined point, for example, 7 This is a rank promotion lottery performed when points are reached.

Here, in the present embodiment, the winning probability of the main lottery is set to be different depending on the type of the third AT state.
For example, “same color BIG” is set higher than “different color BIG”, and “upper REG” is set higher than “REG”.
The present invention is not limited to the case where the winning probability is made different depending on the type of the third AT state, and the lottery may be performed with the winning probability irrespective of the type of the third AT state.

By winning this lottery, the rank is promoted by one level.
If the lottery is won when the rank is "10", one third AT state is stocked.
That is, after the number of games in the third AT state has been consumed, the right to start the third AT state can be acquired again.

In the present embodiment, this lottery is performed when a winning combination determined in advance by a winning lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “HCH”, “SPA”, “SPB”, “WM” is won. .
The game is not limited to being performed by winning a predetermined combination by a lottery, but may be performed every game.

(6) Rank promotion lottery 3 is a rank promotion lottery performed during the latter half of the third AT state.
In this lottery, a case where the rank is promoted by one rank, a case where the rank is promoted by two ranks, and a case where the rank is promoted to rank 10 are selected.

  (7) The third AT state stock lottery is a lottery performed during the latter part of the third AT state, and determines whether or not to stock the right to shift to the third AT state by lottery.

  By winning this lottery, it is possible to acquire the right to start the third AT state again after the number of games in the third AT state has been consumed.

(8) The special REG game number addition lottery 1 is performed from the eleventh game after the start of the special REG and after the ten games are exhausted, and determines whether or not to add the number of special REG games by lottery.
By winning this lottery, the number of special REG games is increased by, for example, 15 games.

  (9) The special REG game addition point lottery is a lottery performed when the special REG game number addition lottery 1 is not won during the special REG, and is a lottery for determining whether or not to acquire an additional point.

(10) The special REG game number addition lottery 2 is a lottery performed in the last game of the special REG game, and performs an additional lottery using the extra points obtained in the special REG game number additional point lottery. .
In the remaining games of the special REG after winning the main lottery, the above-described rank promotion lottery 2 is executed, and when the main lottery is won, one third AT state is stocked.
That is, after the number of games in the third AT state has been consumed, the right to start the third AT state can be acquired again.
At the start of the third AT state again with such stock, a so-called freeze for stopping the progress of the game is executed, and the type of the third AT state ("same color BIG", "different color BIG", "REG", "higher order REG", " Special REG ”), a reel effect is executed.
Here, in the reel effect performed in accordance with the type of the third AT state, a reel effect predetermined for each type of the third AT state may be executed, and a lottery probability predetermined for each type of the third AT state may be selected. And determining a lottery among a plurality of reel effects having different times and contents.
As a result, it is possible to provide a playability such as estimating the type of the third AT state from the executed reel effect.

In addition, the “AT state” may include, for example, a retraction state.
The pull-back state is a case where it is not determined that the second AT state is continued by the continuous lottery. When the stage is the lowest stage, the state is shifted from the second AT state, and during a predetermined number of games, for example, during three games, This is a state in which a pull-back lottery is performed to determine whether or not to perform the second AT state again.

If the player has the pullback state, the player returns to the second AT state via the AT rank determination zone by winning the pullback lottery.
If the pull-out lottery has not been won, the state shifts to the non-advantageous section normal state.

In the present embodiment, the pull-back lottery is performed when a winning combination determined in advance by the lottery, for example, a winning combination group “NCH”, “HCH”, “WM”, “SPA”, or “SPB” is won. .
The game is not limited to being performed by winning a predetermined combination by a lottery, but may be performed every game.

(Explanation of the basic flow of the game using FIG. 18)
Based on the flowchart shown in FIG. 18, a general game control process executed by the main control board 200 for each game will be described.

  In step S10, the main control board 200 determines whether or not the start switch 40 has been operated. Here, if it is determined that the start switch 40 has been operated, the main control board 200 sets a state in which the bet amount cannot be set. After that, it advances to the next step S11. On the other hand, if it is determined that the start switch 40 has not been operated, the process returns to step S10.

  Note that a bet amount setting process is performed as a premise of step S10. In this bet amount setting process, it is determined whether or not a prescribed bet amount is set as the bet amount. Specifically, the main control board 200 determines whether or not the number of medals set as the number of bets for the game has reached a specified number of bets (three).

  In step S11, the role lottery processing is performed by the role lottery means 210. At this time, the result of the role lottery is transmitted from the main control board 200 to the sub control board 300. When the role lottery process ends, the process proceeds to the next step S12.

  In step S12, rotation fluctuation processing of the rotation reel 62 in the reel unit 60 is performed. After the rotation reel 62 reaches a predetermined rotation speed, if the stop switch 50 corresponding to the rotating rotation reel 62 is operated by the main control board 200, the reel control means 220 controls the rotation of each rotation reel 62. The rotation is stopped. The pressing order corresponding to the winning combination of the stop switch 50 (left stop switch L, middle stop switch C, right stop switch R) at this time is stored in a predetermined storage area formed on the main control board 200, and It is read in the subsequent processing.

Further, after all the stop operations are completed, the rotation stop information of the full rotation reel 62 is transmitted from the transmission means 270 of the main control board 200 to the reception means 310 of the sub control board 300. Then, when the rotation fluctuation processing of all the rotation reels 62 is completed, the process proceeds to the next step S13.
In step S13, the stop symbol determination means 230 performs a determination process such as a prize to determine whether or not the combination of the symbols 61 of the predetermined combination is equal to the combination of the symbols 61 on the activated line 86. Here, the data of the determination result of the determination processing such as winning is transmitted from the main control board 200 to the sub control board 300. Then, when the determination process ends, the process proceeds to the next step S14.

  In step S14, the payout control means 240 performs payout processing or the like corresponding to the determination result of the stop symbol determination means 230. In the case where the payout is unnecessary as a result of the determination, the payout process is not performed. Then, the process ends.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various changes other than those described above can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.

The present invention can provide the gaming machine 10 capable of improving the interest to the end of the latter part by making the latter part more advantageous to the player than the former part.
Further, by changing the type of the end condition between the first half part and the second half part, it is possible to provide the gaming machine 10 capable of playing a variety of games.

Further, by configuring as in the present embodiment, when the first half part is set to a state where the transition period attitude to the second AT state is high and the second half part is set to a low state, this may occur when “after the end of the first half part, A game having a low degree of expectation of transition to the second AT state will continue, and if the number of games in the latter part is added, the game with a lower attitude during the transition to the second AT state will be longer, and the latter part will be longer. This will cause a decrease in the interest of the player in "."
Similarly, when the first half part can be executed until the predetermined number of games is consumed, and the second half part can be executed until the game value is obtained for a predetermined value, the result of the lottery result of the second half part may occur. In some cases, the difference in the length of the latter half part becomes too large and the balance of the game is lost. "

Further, according to the present invention, before shifting to the second AT state, it is possible to determine a stage to be used when shifting to the second AT state, and to improve interest before the second AT state starts. The gaming machine 10 capable of performing the above-described operations can be provided.
In order to achieve such an effect, the determined stage may be notified to the player.

  Further, according to the present invention, when it is determined that the second AT state is to be continued, the stage can be promoted in the transitioned third AT state, and even in the third AT state, the connection is continued until the state returns to the second AT state. It is possible to provide the gaming machine 10 capable of playing an interesting game instead of the state described above.

  Further, the present invention may further reduce the interest of the player if the number of games is long when the game shifts to the second time or later, and it is possible to prevent such a decrease in the interest of the player. A possible gaming machine 10 can be provided.

  Further, the present invention further provides a case where, even when it is not determined to continue the second AT state, the stage related to the degree of expectation of the privilege given in the second AT state is other than the lowest stage, It is possible to provide the gaming machine 10 capable of continuing the second AT state, and linking the privilege in the second AT state with the continuation of the second AT state, thereby improving the interest of the player. it can.

  Further, the present invention further provides a gaming machine 10 capable of causing the player to throb and throb by paying attention to the continuous lottery performed in the second AT state even when the stage in the second AT state is the lowest stage. Can be.
