Abstract

To provide a slot machine in which various measures are taken to improve notification of an operation mode.SOLUTION: When six-choice bell is won in a normal state, a symbol combination winning suggestion is executed at a higher probability than a case where six-choice bell is won in a CZ, so that when the six-choice bell is won in the CZ, a frequency when a symbol combination winning suggestion related to a winning of the six-choice bell decreases compared with a case when the six-choice bell is won in the normal state. Consequently, during the CZ, this configuration can avoid such a situation that a player recognizes to win the six-choice bell so as to prevent the player from having such dissatisfaction that, regardless of the winning of the six-choice bell, the navigation is not executed.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 9

Description

The present invention includes a variable display unit capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information, each of which can be identified, and after variably displaying the variable display unit, the variable display of the variable display unit is stopped to derive a display result. The present invention relates to a slot machine capable of generating a prize according to the display result.

Generally, a slot machine has a variable display section having a reel on which a plurality of types of symbols are drawn as identification information on the outer periphery, and by operating a start switch with a prescribed bet number set. The reel starts to rotate, and when the stop switch is operated to stop the rotation of the reel, a predetermined symbol combination on the winning line (for example, 7-7-7, hereinafter, the symbol combination is a combination of display results, or A prize is generated by deriving a winning combination.

The types of winning combinations include small winning combinations, special winning combinations, and re-playing combinations. Here, when the display result corresponding to the small winning combination is derived on the winning line, the number of medals determined for each small winning combination is paid out. When the display result corresponding to the special combination is derived on the pay line, the state can be shifted to a special state that is advantageous to the player, such as a regular bonus (RB) or a big bonus (BB). When the display result corresponding to the re-gaming combination is derived on the pay line, the next game can be played without consuming a new medal for setting the bet number.

As such a slot machine, it is possible to control the AT (assist time) for informing the player of the operation mode of the stop switch, and to let the player select the net increase of medals per game in the AT state. Then, there is a slot machine in which the net increase per game is different (for example, Patent Document 1).

JP, 2015-160095, A

In the slot machine described above, the operation mode of the stop switch is notified so that the net increase per game becomes the pure information number selected by the player, but in the game when the operation mode notification frequency is reduced. There was room for improvement in direction.

It is also possible to adopt a configuration in which the symbols can be variably displayed by moving the belt on which the symbols are arranged. Further, in the present embodiment, the variable display section is configured by a physical reel, but the variable display section may be configured by an image display device such as a liquid crystal display.

As shown in FIG. 1, on the front of the slot machine 1, a medal insertion portion 4 into which medals can be inserted, a medal payout opening 9 from which medals are paid out, and a credit (the number of medals stored as a gaming value owned by a player) ) Is used to set the maximum bet number out of the prescribed number (3 in the present embodiment) determined according to the gaming state within that range, the MAXBET switch 6, the game Start switch 7 operated when starting, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R operated when stopping the rotation of reels 2L, 2C, 2R, respectively, and a production switch 56 operated by the player during production. Are provided so that they can be operated by the player.

In the following, the operation on the start switch 7 (for example, the operation of manually pressing the start switch 7) is a “start operation”, and the operation on the stop switch for stopping the rotation of the first reel (for example, the stop switch is The operation of pushing down by hand is the “first stop operation”, the operation on the stop switch for stopping the rotation of the second reel (for example, the operation of pushing down the stop switch by hand) is the “second stop operation”, and The operation on the stop switch for stopping the rotation of the third reel (for example, the operation of manually pressing the stop switch) is also referred to as “third stop operation”. In addition, the first stop operation, the second stop operation, and the third stop operation are collectively referred to as “stop operation”. Further, releasing the depression (first stop operation) on the first stop switch (for example, releasing the hand from the stop switch) “releases the first stop” and pushing down the second stop switch (second stop). Operation (i.e., releasing the hand from the stop switch) is "second stop release", and pressing of the third stop switch (third stop operation) is released (i.e., stop switch). Releasing the hand) is also referred to as “third stop release”.

On the front surface of the slot machine 1, a side lamp 27 including a plurality of LEDs is provided beside the reels 2L, 2C, 2R. A reel that is provided near the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R so as to correspond to each of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R and that irradiates each of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R with light from the back side or side of the reel. Backlights 28L, 28C, 28C (hereinafter, also simply referred to as "reel backlight 28") are provided. Further, above the liquid crystal display 51, speakers 53 and 54 for outputting sound are provided.

The display area of the liquid crystal display 51 is provided with a specific area 60 capable of specifying the number of games remaining in the AT and the like. For example, in the specific area 60, a display showing the number of remaining games of the AT (display of "LAST○G" in the figure) and a display showing the number of medals paid out during the AT ("GET○" in the figure) Display of "○") is performed.

As shown in FIG. 1, on the front of the slot machine 1, a credit indicator 11 for displaying the number of medals stored as credits, the number of medals paid out due to the occurrence of a prize, and the contents thereof when an error occurs A game auxiliary display 12 that displays an error code, 1BETLED14 that informs that the number of bets is set to 1 by lighting, 2BETLED15 that notifies that the number of bets is set to 2 by lighting, and the number of bets is set to 3 3BET LED 16 for notifying that it is being turned on, insertion request LED 17 for notifying that a medal can be inserted by lighting, and start valid LED 18 for notifying that the start operation of the game by operating the start switch 7 is effective The game display unit 13 is provided with an advantageous zone LED 19 that lights up to inform that the advantageous zone is being controlled, which will be described later, and a replaying LED 20 that lights up to inform that a replay game is in progress.

As shown in FIG. 1B, inside the slot machine 1, there is provided a main controller 41 that controls the progress of the game and outputs various commands in accordance with the progress of the game. The main control unit 41 includes a main CPU 41a that performs various controls related to the progress of the game, and a RAM 41c that stores various data related to the progress of the game. The main control unit 41 detects operations on the MAXBET switch 6, the start switch 7, the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, etc., and the insertion of medals into the medal insertion unit 4, and in accordance with the detected operations, the reels 2L, 2C are detected. , 2R rotation/stop, turning on/off of each LED in the game display unit 13, and other controls relating to the progress of the game.

Inside the slot machine 1, a sub-control unit 91 that controls an effect in response to a command from the main control unit 41 is provided. The sub-control unit 91 includes a sub CPU 91a that performs various control related to the effect, and a RAM 91c that stores various data related to the effect. Based on the command from the main control unit 41, the sub control unit 91 displays an image on the liquid crystal display 51, outputs sound from the speakers 53 and 54, and turns on/off the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28. Control. The effect data used for the image display of the liquid crystal display 51 and the sound output of the speakers 53, 54 is stored in the RAM 91c. Further, the sub-control unit 91 detects an operation on the effect switch 56, and controls the display of an image on the liquid crystal display 51 and the sound output from the speakers 53 and 54 according to the detected operation.

When playing a game in the slot machine 1, the player sets a specified number of bets by inserting a medal into the medal inserting section 4 or operating the MAXBET switch 6. As a result, the pay line LN is activated, and the operation of the start switch 7 is activated so that the game can be started. The winning line LN is a line for determining whether or not the symbol combination on the reels 2L, 2C, 2R displayed on the see-through window 3 matches the winning symbol combination. In the present embodiment, only the pay line LN, which is set across the middle of the reel 2L, the middle of the reel 2C, and the middle of the reel 2R, that is, the middle, is defined as the pay line. Alternatively, a plurality of pay lines may be provided. In addition, an ineffective line may be provided to make it easy to recognize that the combination of the symbols forming the winning is aligned with the winning line LN.

When the start switch 7 is operated while the game can be started, the reels 2L, 2C, 2R rotate. At this time, an internal lottery is performed by the main controller 41. The internal lottery is a process of determining a symbol combination (display result combination) that is permitted to be derived. Allowing the derivation of the symbol combination by the internal lottery is also referred to as winning the winning combination corresponding to the symbol combination.

When the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated, the rotation of the reel corresponding to the operated stop switch is stopped. As a result, the symbol combination is derived and displayed in the see-through window 3. On the winning line LN, when the symbol combination matching the symbol combination of the winning combination is stopped, the winning corresponding to the winning combination is generated.

In the reel stop control, the reels 2L, 2C, 2R corresponding to the operation are rotated within the maximum stop delay time (190 ms (millisecond) in the present embodiment) from the time when the operation of each stop switch is performed. Control to stop is performed. The reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are rotated 80 times per minute, and 80 (rotation)×20 (the number of symbol frames per reel, 20 frames, for example)=1600 frames are varied, so the predetermined maximum By the time the stop delay time (190 ms) elapses, it is possible to pull in symbols for up to 4 frames. In other words, in the stop control, the symbols that are displayed when the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated and the symbols that are four frames ahead of that, a total of five symbols (withdrawal range) Can be selected and led to the reels 2L, 2R, 2R.

There are special combinations (bonuses), small combinations, and replay combinations as winning combinations. The special combination (bonus) is a combination in which the gaming state is controlled to be a bonus state in which the probability of winning a small combination is higher than that in the non-bonus state by winning. Special roles (bonuses) include first-class special properties such as RB (regular bonus) and BB (big bonus), and second-class special properties such as CB (challenge bonus). In this embodiment, CB is provided as a special character. The small role is a role to which a medal is given by winning the prize. The re-play role (replay) is a role in which the next game can be started by consuming a prize without consuming a medal owned by the player.

In order for the winning of each winning combination determined according to the gaming state to occur, it is necessary to win the internal lottery and set the winning flag of the winning combination. In the internal lottery, before the display result of all the reels 2L, 2C, 2R is derived by the main control unit 41, whether or not the winning of each of the above winning combinations is permitted (specifically, the start switch 7 (When is detected), it is determined by using a random number.

Of the winning flags of each combination, the winning flags of the small combination and the re-game combination are valid only in the game in which the flag is set, and are invalid in the next game, but the winning flags of the special combination are The flag is valid until the combination of the permitted combinations is completed, and is invalid in the game in which the combination of the permitted combinations is prepared. That is, once the winning flag of a special winning combination has been won, even if the combination of winning combinations allowed by that flag cannot be aligned, the winning flag will not be invalidated and will be carried over to the next game. ing.

In addition, in the internal lottery, a small win that is more advantageous when the stop operation is performed in a predetermined operation mode (for example, operation sequence, operation timing) than when the stop operation is performed in another operation mode. The re-playing combination (hereinafter, also referred to as “pushing combination”) can be won. For example, the push order combination is a combination of a stop mode that is more advantageous than a stop mode that is stopped when a stop operation is performed in another predetermined operation mode when the stop operation is performed in a predetermined predetermined operation mode. , A combination in which the advantageous stop mode has a higher rate of stopping when the stop operation is performed in a predetermined operation mode than when the stop operation is performed in another operation mode. Further, the advantageous stop mode includes not only a stop mode involving awarding of medals but also a stop mode involving a transition to an advantageous game state, a stop mode in which a transition to an unfavorable game state is avoided.

The main control unit 41 is capable of executing a navigation for notifying the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R which is advantageous for the player, when the push winning combination is won by the internal lottery. Specifically, the main control unit 41 can execute navigation notification that notifies the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R that is advantageous to the player according to the internal lottery result by the lighting mode of the game auxiliary display device 12. It is possible to control the assist time (AT) which is a different notification period.

As will be described later in detail, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not to control the advantageous section that is advantageous to the player when the predetermined lottery condition set in advance in the normal section is satisfied. By conducting a transition lottery and winning the advantageous zone transition lottery, control of the advantageous zone is started. During the advantageous zone, the main control unit 41 executes the navigation notification by controlling the AT when the push forward combination is won, and the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R which is advantageous for the player ( For example, the operation order, the operation timing, etc.) are notified using the game auxiliary display device 12, and a command capable of specifying an operation mode that is advantageous to the player is transmitted to the sub-control unit 91, thereby performing the operation. A navigation effect for notifying the mode using the liquid crystal display 51 or the like is executed.

In the push order combination, a push order bell that wins a bell when the operation mode of the player matches the operation mode corresponding to the selected push order combination (hereinafter, also referred to as “correct answer procedure”), and the operation of the player The push order lip that wins the replay when the mode matches the operation mode corresponding to the selected push order combination is included. Hereinafter, the navigation that can be performed in the game in which the push order bell is won is also referred to as bell navigation. Note that the normal section is a state in which the bell navigation cannot be executed, unlike the state in which the bell navigation can be executed like the advantageous section.

By operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R in accordance with the correct answer procedure in accordance with the bell navigation, the player can win the winning combination of the winning combinations, which is included in the push order bell. Alternatively, the player can operate the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the correct answer procedure in accordance with Bell Navi to win a winning combination that is not likely to fail to win, out of the winning combinations included in the push order bell. In addition, among the winning combinations included in the push order bell, the winning winning combination when the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated in the correct answer procedure is the “main winning combination”, and the stop switch 8L in an incorrect answer procedure different from the correct answer procedure The winning combination that can be won when 8C or 8R is operated is also referred to as a "sub winning combination".

By operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in the operation mode informed by the navigation notification and the navigation effect, it is possible to surely win the protagonist included in the push order winning in the internal lottery. Is becoming In the control of the advantageous zone, the advantageous zone LED 19 is turned on to notify that the advantageous zone is being controlled.

[Transition of game state]
FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the game state. As shown in FIG. 3, the game state controlled by the liquid crystal display 51 includes non-inside and inside.

Inside is a state in which the game can proceed and a payout rate of medals based on a predetermined design value is secured. In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, most games are to be played by the player inside.

On the other hand, in the non-inside, the game is not played by the player, or even if the game is played, the time is extremely short. In the non-inside, when the CB is won and the winning of the CB is missed, the game state shifts from the next game to the inside. That is, the inside is a state in which the winning of CB is carried over. Once the gaming state is controlled inside, there is almost no chance of winning a CB that has been carried over, and even if there is, the probability is extremely low.

In the example shown in FIG. 3, the CB is not shown as the game state, but if there is a chance to win the CB in the non-inside or in the inside, the game is transferred from the non-inside or inside to the CB. The state shifts. In this case, the CB ends in approximately one game, and the game state shifts to the non-inside again.

The state in the inside includes a normal section and an advantageous section. In the normal section, Bellavi is not executed. The advantageous section is a state in which Bernavi can be executed. In the normal section, the state is controlled in the advantageous section when the advantageous section transition lottery is won.

The states in the advantageous zone include CZ and AT at normal times. In the normal state, the navigation can be executed, and is an example of the “third state”. CZ is a state in which navigation can be executed, and is an example of a “first state”. The AT is a state in which the navigation can be executed and the navigation execution probability is higher than that of the CZ, and is an example of the “second state”. The net increase per game that the player can obtain during AT is larger than the net increase per game that the player can obtain during CZ. In other words, the total number of net additions that can be obtained by the player during AT is larger than the total number of net additions that can be obtained by the player during CZ. The net increase per game is the number of medals paid out per game minus the number of medals used to set the number of bets per game. The net increase in a predetermined state (CZ or AT) means the total number of medals paid out in a predetermined state (CZ or AT) to the total number of medals used to set the bet number in the predetermined state (CZ or AT). It is the number deducted. The “net increase” is a number greater than 0.

In normal times, the state is controlled to CZ or AT when winning (advantageous winning) in an advantageous transition lottery described later. In normal times, a plurality of types of probability modes having different winning probabilities in the advantageous transition lottery are provided. In the present embodiment, the low probability mode in which the winning probability in the advantageous transition lottery is the lowest, the middle probability mode in which the winning probability in the advantageous transition lottery is higher than the low probability mode, and the high probability that the winning probability in the advantageous transition lottery is the highest. Modes and are provided.

When the state is controlled to CZ or AT from normal time, the state is controlled to CZ or AT by deriving a symbol combination in which three 7 symbols are aligned (hereinafter, also referred to as “7 alignment”). It is suggested to the player. Note that the navigation for notifying the operation procedure of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R for deriving the 7-set is also referred to as "7-set navigation".

The control to the CZ is managed by the number of games, and the CZ ends when the number of games consumed in the CZ reaches the preset upper limit number of games. The CZ is not limited to that managed by the number of games, and the number of times the navi (for example, Bell Navi) is executed or the number of wins of the bell reaches a preset upper limit number, and the payout number or the net increase number is set in advance. It may be managed on the basis of other conditions such as reaching the upper limit number.

During the CZ, the state is controlled by the AT when the player wins in the AT lottery described later (AT win). In the CZ, a plurality of types of probability modes having different winning probabilities in the AT lottery are provided. In the present embodiment, there are a low probability mode in which the winning probability in the AT lottery is the lowest, a middle probability mode in which the winning probability in the AT lottery is higher than the low probability mode, and a high probability mode in which the winning probability in the AT lottery is the highest. It is provided.

The control to the AT is managed by the number of times of execution of the navigation, and the AT ends when the number of times of execution of the navigation (for example, bell navigation) executed during the AT reaches the preset upper limit number. To do. The AT is not limited to the one managed by the number of times the navigation is executed, but the number of exhausted games reaches the preset maximum number of games, the number of bell wins reaches the preset maximum number of games, and the payout. It may be managed based on other conditions such as the number of sheets or the number of net additions reaching a preset upper limit number.

During AT, the control period for the AT is extended when a win (additional win) is made in an add-on lottery described later. Even during AT, a plurality of types of probability modes having different winning probabilities in the additional lottery may be provided.

When the AT ends, the state is controlled by the CZ again, and when the AT is won in the CZ, the state is controlled by the AT again. On the other hand, when the number of exhausted games reaches the upper limit number of games without winning the AT in the CZ, the state is controlled at normal time. In this way, the state is controlled from the normal time to the CZ or AT, and the state goes back and forth between the CZ and the AT. In CZ, the total net increase is about 0 or slightly less than 0 (for example, -20), and in AT, the total net increase is greater than 0 and about 100 medals are net increase. Is counted as Thus, the total net increase is designed to continue to increase as conditions switch between CZ and AT. On the other hand, in the normal time, the total net increase is about 0 or less than 0, so if the number of games staying in the normal time is larger than the number of games staying between CZ and AT, The total net increase continues to decline.

In this embodiment, the CZ or AT is directly controlled from the normal time, but when the state is controlled to the CZ or AT from the normal time, the navigation different from the CZ or AT is performed. The state may be controlled from the pseudo bonus to CZ or AT after the pseudo bonus is executable.

When the limiter condition is satisfied in the advantageous section or any end condition is satisfied, the state is controlled from the advantageous section to the normal section. For example, the limiter condition includes that the number of exhausting games in the advantageous section reaches 1500 G, or that the net increase number in the advantageous section reaches 2400. Further, for example, the arbitrary ending condition includes that the predetermined upper limit number of games has been exhausted without being advantageously won in the normal time.

[Winner]
FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining types of winning combinations, symbol combinations of winning combinations, and awarding at the time of winning. The name of the winning combination is shown in the name column of FIG. 4, and the combination of symbols in which the winning combination is won is shown in the symbol combination column. Also, in the symbol combination column that can be stopped on the ineffective line, a combination of symbols that can be stopped on the ineffective line when the winning symbol combination is stopped on the winning line is a combination of symbols that the player can easily recognize. It is shown. In the award column, the value (a medal payout number, a replay award, etc.) given at the time of winning is shown.

As shown in FIG. 4, CB is provided as a special role. As the small winning combination, a middle bell, upper bells 1 to 8, watermelon, cherry, and a single winning combination are provided. As the re-gaming combination, a normal lip and a 7-piece lip are provided.

The middle bell is a role corresponding to the main role described above. The upper bells 1 to 8 are the roles corresponding to the above-mentioned sub-wins, and the payout number is smaller than that of the middle bell. When a watermelon wins, watermelon symbols are aligned on the reels 2L, 2C, 2R. When 7 sets of Lips are won, White 7 or Black 7 is set on the reels 2L, 2C, 2R.

[Lottery target]
FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining combinations of winning combinations that are read out as the lottery target combinations for each gaming state. The combination number column of FIG. 5 shows the combination number determined for each lottery target combination, the lottery target combination column shows its name, and the combination column of the winning combination is included in each lottery target combination. A combination of winning combinations to be won is shown, and in the gaming state column, it is indicated by a circle for each gaming state that the lottery target combination is a lottery target.

As shown in FIG. 5, CB is provided as a winning combination for the special winning combination. Six winning bells 1 to 6, watermelons, and cherries are provided as small winning lottery target winning combinations. As a lottery target combination of the re-game combination, a normal lip and a special lip are provided. Watermelons and cherries have a lower winning probability in the internal lottery than the six-choice bell, so they are also called “rare roles”. Watermelons and cherries, which are rare characters, are not arranged within 5 frames on any reels. Therefore, depending on the operation timing of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R, it is not possible to stop the composition symbol on the winning line, and the winning of the winning rare role may be missed.

In the non-internal, all the winning combinations can be won, but in the internal, the winning of the CB has already been carried over, so only the CB cannot win.

[Reel control with push-down role]
FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the reel control at the time of the push forward combination winning. As shown in FIG. 6, the 6-selection bells 1 to 6 and the special lip are provided in the pushing sequence. In the game in which the 6-choice bell is won in AT, the bell navigation is executed, and the correct procedure is notified to the player. The player operates the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the correct answer procedure in accordance with Bell Navi to win a winning combination advantageous to the player.

For example, in a game in which one of the six-choice bells 1 to 6 is won, when the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated in the correct answer procedure, the central bell, which is the protagonist, wins while the stop switch 8L is in the incorrect answer procedure. , 8C and 8R are operated, the upper bell, which is the sub-winner, wins or loses the prize.

In the game in which the special lip is won, 7 sets of lip can be won when the stop switch 8R, the stop switch 8C, and the stop switch 8L are operated in this order. In the following, operating the stop switch 8R, the stop switch 8C, and the stop switch 8L in this order is also referred to as reverse pressing. On the other hand, in the game in which the special lip is won, the normal lip wins when the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated by other than reverse pressing.

In addition, in the game in which the special lip is won, there may be a case where the player completes the 7-navi navigation that prompts the player to operate the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R by reversely pressing the stop switch 8L according to the 7-navi navigation. , 8C and 8R are operated, 7 kinds of Lips will be won. In addition, in the game in which the special lip is won, a non-seven complete navigation (so-called kill navigation) may be performed that prompts the player to operate the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R other than reverse pressing. When the person operates the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the non-seven complete navigation, the normal lip wins.

[Various tables regarding benefits]
FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining various tables regarding benefits. The main control unit 41 executes a lottery on benefits based on various tables shown in FIG. 7. The table regarding the privilege in the present embodiment includes a mode lottery table, an advantageous transition lottery table, an AT lottery table, and an additional lottery table.

(Mode lottery table)
As shown in FIG. 7A, the main control unit 41 executes the mode lottery to determine the probability mode in each of the normal time and the CZ based on the lottery. The lottery conditions in the mode lottery include that the state has shifted from the normal state to CZ, the state has shifted from the CZ to the normal state, and that the AT has transitioned to the CZ during the advantageous zone.

In the mode lottery, when the state shifts from AT to CZ, the probability of being determined to the medium-probability mode or the high-probability mode is higher than when the state shifts from normal time to CZ. Therefore, it is easier to win the AT from the CZ that has been transferred from the AT than from the CZ that has been transferred from the normal time, and once the AT is controlled by the AT, it becomes easier to repeatedly switch between the CZ and AT states. ing.

(Advantageous transfer lottery table)
As shown in FIG. 7B, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not to control the state in the advantageous section by performing the advantageous transition lottery in the normal time based on the lottery. Rare part winning is included in the lottery conditions in the advantageous transition lottery.

In the advantageous transfer lottery, the presence or absence of the advantageous winning is determined with different probabilities depending on the type of the probability mode at the normal time. Specifically, the low-probability mode has the lowest probability of winning, the medium-probability mode has a higher probability of winning, and the higher-probability mode has the highest probability of winning. Is becoming

(AT lottery table)
As shown in FIG. 7C, the main control unit 41 executes the AT lottery during CZ to determine whether or not the AT controls the state based on the lottery. The lottery conditions in the AT lottery include rare winning and 6-bell winning.

In the AT lottery, the presence or absence of the AT win is determined with different probabilities depending on the type of the probability mode in CZ. Specifically, the probability of AT winning is the lowest in the low probability mode, the probability of AT winning is higher in the medium probability mode than the low probability mode, and the probability of AT winning is the highest in the high probability mode. Is becoming Further, in the AT lottery, the AT is elected with a higher probability when the rare part is elected than when the 6-choice bell is elected.

In addition, even if the Bell Navi is not executed when the 6-choice bell is elected in the CZ, the AT lottery is performed, so the player complains that the Bell-navi is not executed even though the 6-choice bell is elected. It can be made unnoticeable.

(Additional lottery table)
As shown in FIG. 7D, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not to extend the control period to the AT based on the lottery by executing the additional lottery in the AT. The rare lottery is included in the lottery conditions for the additional lottery. As described above, the control of the AT in the present embodiment is managed by the number of times the navigation is executed. For this reason, when the player wins in addition, the upper limit number of times provided in advance increases, or the counting of the number of times of executing the navigation is stopped. Note that the main control unit 41 may determine whether to extend the control period to the CZ or not even during the CZ based on the additional lottery.

[Navi table]
FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining a navigation table for managing the presence/absence of execution of navigation. The main control unit 41 manages whether or not to execute navigation for each state according to the navigation table.

(Navigation in normal time)
In normal times, in a game in which an advantageous transition is suggested, even if the 6-option bell is won, the bell navigation is not executed. As will be described later in detail, the advantageous transition suggestion is an effect that suggests that the state transitions from the normal time to the advantageous section. When the special lip is won in the game in which the advantageous transition is suggested, the 7-navigation navigation is executed, while the non-7-navigation navigation is not executed.

As a result, in the game in which an advantageous transition is suggested, the player operates the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the 7-advance navigation to derive the 7-advancement, and the state shifts from the normal time to the advantageous section. Can be suggested to the player.

In normal times, none of the bell navigation, the 7-series navigation, and the non-7-series navigation are executed in other games.

(Navigation in CZ)
In CZ, Bell Navi is not executed even if a 6-option bell is won in a game in which AT transition is suggested. As will be described later in detail, the AT transition suggestion is an effect that suggests that the state transitions from CZ to AT. Even if the special lip is won in the game in which the AT transition is suggested, neither the 7-series navigation nor the non-7-series navigation is executed.

As described above, in the game in which the AT transition suggestion is performed, since no navigation is executed, the player can concentrate on the effect regarding the AT transition suggestion without being disturbed by the navigation. In addition, in the game in which the AT transition is suggested, even the non-seven complete navigation is not executed, so that the player does not misunderstand that the bell navigation is executed.

In CZ, Bell Navi is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won in the game in which the result notification is performed. As will be described later in detail, the result notification is an effect of notifying the result of the game in the AT in the CZ which is shifted after the AT is finished. In addition, even if the special rep is won in the game in which the result notification is performed, neither the 7-series navigation nor the non-7-series navigation is executed.

As described above, in the game in which the result notification is performed, since no navigation is executed, the player can concentrate on the effect regarding the result notification without being disturbed by the navigation. Further, in the game in which the result notification is performed, even the non-seven complete navigation is not executed, so that the player does not misunderstand that the bell navigation is executed.

In CZ, Bell Navi is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won in the game in which the mode is suggested. As will be described later in detail, the mode suggestion is an effect that suggests the selection result of the probability mode during CZ. In addition, even if the special lip is won in the game in which the mode suggestion is performed, neither the 7-series navigation nor the non-7-series navigation is executed.

As described above, in the game in which the mode suggestion is performed, no navigation is executed, so that the player can concentrate on the effect regarding the mode suggestion without being disturbed by the navigation. Further, in the game in which the mode suggestion is performed, even the non-seven complete navigation is not executed, so that the player does not misunderstand that the bell navigation is executed.

Note that each of the game in which the AT transition is suggested, the game in which the result is informed, and the game in which the mode is suggested is a game in which the Bell Navi is not performed, and thus is also referred to as a “navi-free game”. On the other hand, a game in which Bell Navi is performed is also referred to as a “game with navi”.

In the CZ, in other games, when the 6-choice bell is won, the bell navigation is executed with a lower probability than in AT. Further, in other games, when the special lip is won, the 7-navigation navi is not executed, while the non-7-navigation navi is executed.

As a result, in a game in which any particular effect is not performed, it is possible to reassure the player that the leading role can be won by executing the Bell Navi with a low probability. In addition, in a game in which no particular effect is performed, non-seven sets of navigations are executed to prevent unnecessary derivation of the seven sets of symbol combinations used at the time of suggesting an advantageous transition. You can

(Navi in AT)
In the AT, when the player wins the 6-option bell in the game during the warning period, the Bernavi is executed with a higher probability than in the CZ time. As will be described later in detail, the precursory period is a period in which an effect is provided to encourage the player to determine whether or not the player has won the additional prize. In addition, in the game during the sign period, when the special lip is won, the 7-navigation navi is not executed, while the non-7-navigation navi is executed.

In the AT, the bell navigation is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won in the game in which the additional notice is given. As will be described later in detail, the add-on notification is an effect that suggests the add-on winning after the precursory period has passed. In addition, even if the special lip is won in the game in which the addition notification is made, neither the 7-series navigation nor the non-7-series navigation is executed.

As a result, in the game in which the additional notification is performed, no navigation is executed, so that the player can concentrate on the effect related to the additional notification without being disturbed by the navigation. In addition, in the game in which the addition notification is performed, even the non-seven complete navigation is not executed, so that the player does not misunderstand that the bell navigation is executed. Further, as described above, in the game during the precursory period, both the bell navigation and the non-seven complete navigation can be executed, whereas in the game in which the additional notification is given after the precursory period, both navigations are executed. Not done. As a result, during the warning period, it is possible to reassure the player that the leading role can be won by executing the bell navigation, and the non-seven complete navigation is executed, so that it is possible to suggest an advantageous transition. While it is possible to prevent unnecessary derivation of the 7 sets of symbol combinations used, in the game in which the additional notice is given, the player can respond to the effect regarding the additional notice without being disturbed by the navigation. Since it is possible to concentrate on, it is possible to perform an appropriate navigation at a suitable timing.

In AT, in other games, when the 6-choice bell is won, Bellnavi is executed with a higher probability than in CZ. Further, in other games, when the special lip is won, the 7-navigation navi is not executed, while the non-7-navigation navi is executed.

As a result, in a game in which no particular effect is performed, the Bernavi is executed with a high probability, which reassures the player that the leading role can be won. In addition, in a game in which no particular effect is performed, non-seven sets of navigations are executed to prevent unnecessary derivation of the seven sets of symbol combinations used at the time of suggesting an advantageous transition. You can

[Various tables related to production]
FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining various tables related to effects. The main control unit 41 and the sub control unit 91 execute effects based on the various tables shown in FIG. The tables relating to the effects in the present embodiment include a bell winning notification table, a winning suggestion table, a chance effect table, a mode UP effect table, a 6-option bell winning effect effect lottery table, and a 6-option bell winning effect effect lottery table. included.

(Bell prize notification table)
As shown in FIG. 9A, in the bell winning notification table, the mode of bell winning notification is determined according to the state. Bell prize notification is an effect that is performed when a protagonist is won in a game in which a 6-option bell is won.

In a normal state, when the bell winning notification is given, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54.

In the CZ navigation game, when the bell winning notification is given, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on, the winning sounds are output from the speakers 53 and 54, and the liquid crystal display 51 displays "GET!!". Is displayed (also referred to as “GET” display). On the other hand, in the game without navigation in CZ, when the bell winning notification is given, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sounds are output from the speakers 53 and 54, but the GET display is not performed.

As described above, in the CZ, when the 6-choice bell is won in the game without navigation, the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are accidentally operated by the player in the correct procedure even though the bell navigation is not executed. Even if the leading player wins the prize, the GET display is not displayed. As a result, it is possible to give a strong impression to the player that the Bernavi is not being executed without making it conspicuous that the Bernavi is not being executed when the six-choice bell is elected despite the advantageous section. It can be avoided.

In the AT, when the bell winning notification is given, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on, the winning sounds are output from the speakers 53 and 54, and the GET display is further performed.

As described above, the GET display is displayed in the bell winning notification during AT, whereas the GET display is not displayed in the bell winning notification during CZ. Therefore, when the leading role is won during AT, the leading role is displayed in the CZ. It is possible to emphasize that the main character has won the prize, rather than when the prize has been won, and to excite the game during AT.

(Position suggestion table)
As shown in FIG. 9B, in the winning suggestion table, the winning suggestion mode is determined according to the state. The winning suggestion is an effect that suggests the winning combination in the game in which one of the rare winning combination, the 6-bell, and the replay (normal rep, 7-repeat) is won. That is, the winning suggestion is a suggestive production related to the winning combination. For example, when the 6-option bell is won, as a suggestion effect related to the 6-option bell winning, a role-winning suggestion that suggests the 6-option bell winning is performed.

In normal times, when a cherry in a rare role wins, a red image corresponding to cherry is performed, and when a watermelon in a rare role wins, an image of green corresponding to a watermelon is imaged. The performance is executed. It should be noted that these effects can be executed even in a game without navigation.

When the 6-option bell is won in the normal state, an effect in the image of yellow corresponding to the bell is executed.

When any one of the winning combinations is won in the normal state, a production in which a white image corresponding to all winning combinations (including a loss) is imaged is executed.

In CZ, when cherry of the rare role is elected, a red image corresponding to the cherry is executed, and when watermelon of the rare role is elected, a green image corresponding to the watermelon is imaged. Is executed. It should be noted that these effects can be executed even in a game without navigation.

When the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, an effect that is imaged in white corresponding to all winning combinations (including loss) is executed.

When one of the winning combinations is won in the CZ, a white image corresponding to all winning combinations (including loss) is executed.

In AT, when a cherry in a rare role is elected, a red image corresponding to cherry is executed, and when a watermelon in a rare role is elected, a green image corresponding to a watermelon is imaged. Is executed. It should be noted that these effects can be executed even in a game without navigation.

When the 6-option bell is won at the AT, a yellow-colored image corresponding to the bell is executed.

When one of the winning combinations is won in the AT, an effect that is imaged in white corresponding to all winning combinations (including loss) is executed.

In this way, during the CZ, even in a game without navigation, the winning of the rare role is suggested when the rare role is won, so that the player can aim for the prize of the suggested rare role. It is possible to avoid missing a prize for a rare role.

In addition, when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, the effect that is imaged in yellow is not executed as in the normal case when the 6-bell is won, but the white corresponding to all the roles (including the loss) is executed. Since the imaged effect is executed, it is possible to avoid making the player aware of winning the 6-option bell as much as possible during the CZ.

(Chance production table)
As shown in FIG. 9C, in the chance effect table, the presence or absence of execution of the opportunity effect is determined according to the state. The chance effect is an effect that can be executed only during CZ, and is an effect that suggests that the AT lottery has been performed and the AT winning. The chance production can be executed when the 6-option bell, which is a role that is a condition for executing the AT lottery in the CZ, is won. The chance effect may be always executed when the 6-option bell is won during CZ, may be executed randomly based on a lottery, or may be executed based on a predetermined rule.

(Mode UP production table)
As shown in FIG. 9D, in the mode UP effect table, whether or not to execute the mode UP effect is determined according to the state. The mode UP effect is an effect that can be executed only during CZ, and is an effect that makes the player feel as if the probability mode had level UP from the medium probability mode to the high probability mode.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7A, in the mode lottery, when the state shifts from the normal time to the CZ, when the state shifts from the CZ to the normal time, and from the AT to the CZ during the advantageous section. It will be executed at any of the transitions. Therefore, the probability mode does not change in the middle of CZ. However, for example, even when the high probability mode is determined by the mode lottery, at the beginning of the CZ, an effect (background effect or the like) corresponding to the medium probability mode or the low probability mode is executed, and a true result is obtained in the middle of the CZ. There is a case to switch to the production (background production etc.) corresponding to the high probability mode of. Such an effect is referred to as a mode UP effect. In the present embodiment, the mode UP effect is executed only when the high probability mode is internally determined during CZ, and the effect corresponding to the middle probability mode is switched to the effect corresponding to the true high probability mode. .

(6 selection bell win lottery table)
As shown in FIG. 9(e), in the 6-choice bell winning effect lottery table, when the 6-choice bell is won, it is determined whether or not any of the effects is executed according to the state. The lottery probability is set. It should be noted that any of the effects includes the above-described winning suggestion effect, the chance effect, and the mode-up effect. Note that one of the effects may include other effects such as a navigation effect.

Specifically, when the 6-option bell is won in the normal state, one of the effects is executed with a probability of 20%. On the other hand, when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, one of the effects is executed with a probability of 80%.

In this way, when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, one of the effects such as the winning suggestion effect and the chance effect is executed with a higher probability than in the normal case when the 6-option bell is won. CZ, which is an advantageous section, can be heaped up by the effect rather than time.

(6 selection bell wins lottery table of production contents)
As shown in FIG. 9F, in the 6-choice bell win effect content lottery table, a lottery probability for determining the effect contents to be executed according to the state when the 6-choice bell is won is determined. ing.

Specifically, when the player wins the 6-option bell in the normal state, the winning suggestion is given with a probability of 80% and the state suggestion is given with a probability of 20%. In the present embodiment, the state suggestion includes a chance effect and a mode UP effect. That is, in the normal case, when the 6-option bell is won, there is an 80% probability of suggesting a winning combination, while there is a 20% probability of a chance effect or mode UP effect.

When the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, there is a 50% chance of suggesting a winning combination, and a 50% chance of suggesting a state (chance effect, mode UP effect). In other words, when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, there is a 50% chance of suggesting a winning combination, while a 50% chance of producing a chance effect or mode-up effect.

As described above, when the 6-option bell is normally won, the winning suggestion related to the 6-option bell winning is performed with a higher probability than when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ. Here, the CZ has a lower probability that the navigation will be executed when the 6-option bell is won than the AT, so the player recognizes that the navigation is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won. If this happens, the player will be dissatisfied. Therefore, as in the present embodiment, when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, the frequency of suggesting the winning of the 6-option bell is smaller than when the 6-option bell is normally won. By doing so, it is possible to prevent the player from recognizing that the player has won the 6-option bell during the CZ, and it is possible to prevent the player from feeling the above-mentioned dissatisfaction as much as possible.

[Example of flow of production]
FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining an example of the flow of effects. FIG. 10 shows an example in which the state shifts from the normal state to CZ, then the state shifts from CZ to AT, and then the state shifts from AT to CZ. “X1”, “X2”,... “X23” in the figure are arbitrary values.

As shown in FIG. 10, in the normal X1 game, when the 6-option bell (6-option bell 3 in this example) is won, a suggestion of winning the 6-option bell is made. In addition, in the X2 game at the normal time, when the rare part is won, a suggestion of winning the rare part is given. For example, FIG. 11 is a diagram for explaining an example of a winning suggestion and a winning notification in a normal time.

11(a1) to (d1) show effects in the X1 game. As shown in FIG. 11(a1), in the normal time, an animation image in which the character moves together with the background image of the mountain is displayed, and the speakers 53 and 54 output the BGM corresponding to the normal time. When the start operation is performed in the X1 game, the reels rotate. At this time, the 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, but since it is normal time, the bell navigation is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 11(b1), when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the bell is led to the middle reel 2C.

As shown in FIG. 11(c1), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the bell is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, the Bell Navi was not executed, but by accidentally operating the stop switch in the correct answer procedure, the winning of the leading role was confirmed, so a yellow image of the bell was displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a suggestion for winning the role. Is displayed.

As shown in FIG. 11(d1), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the bell is led to the right reel 2R, and then the third stop release is performed, As the bell winning notification, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54.

As described above, when the six-choice bell is won in the normal state, the bell navigation is not executed, but as the suggestion of winning the win, an effect in the image of yellow corresponding to the bell is executed. It should be noted that since the main character has not won the prize after the bell navigation has been executed, the GET display is not performed in the bell prize notification.

11(a2) to (d2) show effects in the X2 game. As shown in FIG. 11(a2), when the start operation is performed in the X2 game, the reels rotate. At this time, based on the fact that the cherry has been won, an effect in which a red image corresponding to the cherry suggesting a winning role is imaged is executed.

As shown in FIG. 11(b2), when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the cherry is led to the left reel 2L.

As shown in FIG. 11(c2), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the cherry is led to the middle reel 2C.

As shown in FIG. 11(d2), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the cherry is led to the right reel 2R, and then the third stop release is performed. As a cherry prize notification, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54.

As described above, when the cherry tree is won in the normal time, an effect in which a red color corresponding to the cherry tree is imaged is executed as a winning suggestion.

Returning to FIG. 10, in the X3 game at the normal time, when the special lip is won, 7-navigation is executed. Although illustration is omitted, when the player operates the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the 7-set navigation, the 7-set is derived. Further, an advantageous transition suggestion (for example, an image display such as “CZ winning”, “WIN”, or “rush into CZ”) that suggests that the state transitions from the normal time to the advantageous section is performed. This allows the player to recognize that the state shifts from the normal time to the advantageous section. Then, the CZ starts from the X4th game in the CZ. In addition, in the X4th game, even if the 6-option bell is won, the bell navigation is not executed. Thereby, the CZ start suggestion that suggests the start of CZ is not disturbed by Bernavi.

In the X5th game in the CZ, when a 6-option bell (6-option bell 3 in this example) is won, a suggestion of a winning hand suggesting a 6-option bell is made. On the other hand, also in the X6 game, when the 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example) is won, a suggestion of winning the 6-choice bell is made, but in this game, the Bernavi is also executed. .. For example, FIG. 12 is a diagram for explaining an example of a winning suggestion and winning notification during CZ.

12(a1) to (d1) show effects in the X5 game. As shown in FIG. 12(a1), in the CZ, an animation image in which the character moves is displayed together with the background image of the sea, and the speakers 53 and 54 output the BGM corresponding to the CZ. The background image of the sea is a background image corresponding to the medium probability mode in CZ. When the start operation is performed in the X5th game, the reels rotate. At this time, an image of white squid is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a winning suggestion. It should be noted that the 6-navigation bell (6th-election bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, but the Bernavi is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 12(b1), when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the bell is led to the middle reel 2C.

As shown in FIG. 12(c1), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the bell is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, the Bell Navi is not executed, but by accidentally operating the stop switch in the correct answer procedure, the winning of the leading character is confirmed. It should be noted that the image of the squid imaged in white, which was executed as a suggestion for winning the role, may be changed to an image in yellow when the winning of the leading role is confirmed.

As shown in FIG. 12(d1), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the bell is led to the right reel 2R, and then the third stop release is performed, As the bell winning notification, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54.

As described above, when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, the bell navigation may not be executed, and a white image corresponding to all the winning combinations is executed as a winning suggestion. It should be noted that since the main character has not won the prize in accordance with the execution of the Bell Navi, the GET display is not performed in the Bell prize notification. By doing this, it is possible to avoid making the player aware of winning the 6-choice bell as much as possible during the CZ, and to make it clear that the Bernavi has not been executed in spite of winning the 6-choice bell. Nor.

12(a2) to (d2) show effects in the X6 game. As shown in FIG. 12(a2), when the start operation is performed in the X6th game, the reels rotate. At this time, the 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, and the bell navigation is executed. Further, a white image of a squid is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a winning suggestion. It should be noted that since the player has recognized the winning of the six-choice bell by executing the bell navigation, an image imagining yellow may be displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a winning suggestion.

As shown in FIG. 12(b2), when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the bell is led to the middle reel 2C.

As shown in FIG. 12C2, when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the bell is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, the winning of the leading character is confirmed by operating the stop switch in the correct answer procedure. It should be noted that the image of the squid imaged in white, which was executed as a suggestion for winning the role, may be changed to an image in yellow when the winning of the leading role is confirmed.

As shown in FIG. 12(d2), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the bell is led to the right reel 2R, and then the third stop release is performed, As the bell winning notification, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54. Further, since the main character has won the prize according to Bellnavi, the GET display is performed.

In this way, when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, there are cases where the bell navigation is not executed and cases where the bell navigation is executed. When the bell navigation is executed, the GET display is performed, whereas the bell navigation is executed. If is not executed, GET display is not performed. As a result, the fact that the Bernavi has not been executed is not conspicuous even though the player has won the six-choice bell.

Returning to FIG. 10, in the X7th game in CZ, when the special lip is won, the non-seven complete navigation is executed. Although illustration is omitted, when the player operates the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the non-seven complete navigation, the symbol combination of the normal lip is derived. As a result, it is possible to avoid unnecessarily deriving 7 sets when the special lip is won.

In the X8th game in the CZ, the mode UP effect is executed when the 6-option bell is won. After that, in the X9th game in the CZ, the AT winning is determined by the AT lottery based on the winning of the rare role, which suggests the winning of the rare role when the rare role is won. After that, in the X10th game in the CZ, when the 6-option bell is won, the chance effect is executed. For example, FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining an example of a mode UP effect and a chance effect during CZ.

13A1 to 13D1 show effects in the X8 game. As shown in FIG. 13(a1), when the start operation is performed in the X8 game, the reels rotate. At this time, although the 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, the bell navigation is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 13B1, when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the replay is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, the character image of "mode..." Indicating the level up of the probability mode is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. The character image of "mode..." may be displayed at the start operation.

As shown in FIG. 13(c1), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the white BAR is led to the middle reel 2C. At this time, a character image of "mode UP!!", which definitely notifies the level increase of the probability mode, is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 13(d1), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the replay is led to the right reel 2R and the winning is lost. After that, when the third stop release is performed, the screen in CZ is switched from the background image of the sea corresponding to the medium probability mode to the background image of the night sky corresponding to the high probability mode. Further, the sound of "mode UP" is output from the speakers 53 and 54.

As described above, during the CZ, by performing the mode UP effect, it is possible to notify that the probability mode has been leveled up by the appearance of the effect. Furthermore, in a game in which such a mode UP effect is executed, since the Bell Navi is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won, the player can concentrate on the Mode UP effect without being disturbed by the Bell Navi. You can In addition, in the game in which the mode UP effect is performed, the GET display is not performed even if the protagonist is accidentally won. As a result, the fact that the Bell Navi has not been executed despite the fact that the 6-option bell has been won is not conspicuous and the mode UP effect is not disturbed.

FIGS. 13A2 to 13D2 show effects in the X10th game. As shown in FIG. 13A2, when the start operation is performed in the X10th game, the reels rotate. At this time, although the 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, the bell navigation is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 13(b2), when the player performs a first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, a replay is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, the chance effect is executed, and the cloud image with "?" is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. The cloud image with "?" may be displayed during the start operation.

As shown in FIG. 13C2, when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the white BAR is led to the middle reel 2C. At this time, the chance effect is executed, and the cloud image with "!" is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 13D2, when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the replay is led to the right reel 2R and the winning is lost. After that, when the third stop-and-release is performed, a chance effect indicating that it is a chance is executed, and an image of a cloud in which “chance” is shown is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. In addition, the sound of "chance" is output from the speakers 53 and 54.

In this way, in the CZ, when the 6-choice bell is won, the chance to be executed is executed instead of the Bernavi not being executed, thereby suggesting to the player that the AT lottery has been performed and the AT winning. Therefore, the interest of the game can be improved. Furthermore, in a game in which such a chance effect is executed, since the Bell Navi is not executed even if the 6-choice bell is won, the player can concentrate on the chance effect without being disturbed by the Bell Navi. .. It should be noted that, in a game in which chance production is performed, GET display is not performed even if a protagonist is accidentally won. As a result, the fact that the Bell Navi has not been executed is not conspicuous even though the player has won the six-choice bell, and the chance production is not disturbed.

Returning to FIG. 10, in the X11 game in CZ, when the 6-option bell is won, AT transition is suggested. After that, the AT starts from the X12th game in the CZ. For example, FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining an example of AT transition suggestion during CZ.

14A1 to 14E1 show effects in the X11 game. As shown in FIG. 14(a1), when the start operation is performed in the X11th game, the reels rotate. At this time, the character image of “LAST game” indicating that the X11th game is the final game of CZ is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. It should be noted that the 6-navigation bell (6th-election bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, but the Bernavi is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 14B1, when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the replay is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, a liquid crystal display 51 displays an image of a diamond indicating “?” that stirs whether or not to shift to AT. The diamond image with "?" may be displayed during the start operation.

As shown in FIG. 14(c1), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the white BAR is led to the middle reel 2C. At this time, a liquid crystal display 51 displays an image of a diamond indicating “!” that indicates whether or not to shift to AT.

As shown in FIG. 14(d1), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the replay is led to the right reel 2R and the winning is lost. After that, when the third stop release is performed, "!" shown on the diamond changes to "AT" according to the movement by the character.

As shown in FIG. 14(e1), thereafter, a character image is displayed together with the character image of “AT rush” as an AT transition suggestion. This suggests to the player that the state shifts from CZ to AT.

In this way, since the AT transition is suggested during the CZ by suggesting the AT transition, the player can be made aware of the transition from the CZ to the AT by the effect of one game. Further, in the game in which such AT transition suggestion is performed, since the Bernavi is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won, it is possible to concentrate on the AT transition suggestion without being disturbed by the Bernavi. it can. In a game in which AT transition is suggested, GET display is not performed even if the protagonist is accidentally won. As a result, the fact that the Bernavi is not executed is not conspicuous despite winning the six-choice bell, and the AT transition suggestion is not disturbed.

14A2 to 14D2 show effects in the X12 game. As shown in FIG. 14(a2), when the start operation is performed in the X12th game in the CZ, the reels rotate. At this time, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an animation image of a character for indicating that the AT starts. It should be noted that the 6-navigation bell (6th-election bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, but the Bernavi is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 14B2, when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the replay is led to the left reel 2L. In the production, the animation image of the character is continuously displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 14C2, when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the white BAR is led to the middle reel 2C. In the production, the animation image of the character is continuously displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 14(d2), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the replay is led to the right reel 2R and the winning is lost. After that, when the third stop release is performed, AT start suggestion is performed, and the character image of "AT start" is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. The AT starts from the next game.

As described above, since the AT start is suggested by the AT start suggestion during the CZ, it is possible to let the player recognize that the AT starts from the next game by the effect of one game. .. Furthermore, in a game in which such AT start suggestion is performed, since the Bernavi is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won, it is possible to concentrate on the AT start suggestion without being disturbed by the Bernavi. it can. In the game in which the AT start suggestion is made, the GET display is not displayed even if the leading role is accidentally won. As a result, the fact that the Bernavi has not been executed is not conspicuous despite winning the 6-option bell, and the AT start suggestion is not disturbed.

Although the AT start suggestion has been described as the game in CZ, it may be performed in the first game in AT. Even in this case, it is preferable that the bell navigation is not executed when the 6-option bell is won.

Returning to FIG. 10, in the X13th game in AT, when the 6-option bell (6-option bell 3 in this example) is won, a suggestion of winning the 6-option bell is made. Further, in the X14th game, when the special lip is won, the non-seven complete navigation is executed. Although illustration is omitted, when the player operates the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the non-seven complete navigation, the symbol combination of the normal lip is derived. As a result, it is possible to avoid unnecessarily deriving 7 sets when the special lip is won. After that, in the X15th game in AT, when the rare part is won, the winning of the rare part is suggested, and the additional winning is determined by the additional lottery based on the winning of the rare part. For example, FIG. 15 is a diagram for explaining an example of a winning suggestion and winning notification during AT.

15(a1) to (d1) show effects in the X13th game. As shown in FIG. 15(a1), when the start operation is performed in the X13th game, the reels rotate. At this time, the 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, and the bell navigation is executed. Further, as an indication of winning a winning combination, a yellow bell image is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 15(b1), when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the bell is led to the middle reel 2C.

As shown in FIG. 15(c1), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the bell is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, the winning of the leading character is confirmed by operating the stop switch in the correct answer procedure.

As shown in FIG. 15(d1), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the bell is led to the right reel 2R, and then the third stop release is performed, As the bell winning notification, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54. Further, since the main character has won the prize according to Bellnavi, the GET display is performed.

As described above, when the 6-option bell is won in the AT, the bell navigation is executed, and the GET display is performed in the prize notification when the main character is won.

15A2 to 15D2 show effects in the X15th game. As shown in FIG. 15(a2), when the start operation is performed in the X15th game, the reels rotate. At this time, based on the fact that the cherry has been won, an effect in which a red image corresponding to the cherry suggesting a winning role is imaged is executed.

As shown in FIG. 15B2, when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the cherry is led to the left reel 2L.

As shown in FIG. 15(c2), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the cherry is led to the middle reel 2C.

As shown in FIG. 15(d2), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the cherry is led to the right reel 2R, and then the third stop release is performed, As a cherry prize notification, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54.

In this way, when cherry is won at the AT, a red image corresponding to cherry is suggested as a winning suggestion.

Returning to FIG. 10, from the X16 game to the X18 game during AT, it is a precursory period for boosting the additional winning. During this precursory period, continuous effects over a plurality of games are executed. Specifically, when the teammate character and the enemy character battle, and when the teammate character wins in the final battle, the additional winning is notified. In addition, in this example, in the X16 game, when the 6-option bell (6-option bell 3 in this example) is won, a suggestion of winning the 6-option bell is made. Further, in the X17th game, when the special lip is won, the non-seven complete navigation is executed. Although illustration is omitted, when the player operates the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the non-seven complete navigation, the symbol combination of the normal lip is derived. As a result, it is possible to avoid unnecessarily deriving 7 sets when the special lip is won.

Next, in the X18 game in AT, when a 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example) is won, the player is informed once that the player has not won the additional prize as a notification of the goose. Non-reporting is performed. After that, in the X19th game during AT, when a 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example) is won, as a true notice, a plus notice is given to inform the player that the addition is won. Be seen. For example, FIG. 16 is a diagram for explaining an example of non-addition notification and additional notification during AT.

16A1 to 16D1 show effects in the X18th game. Although illustration is omitted, in the X16 game and the X17 game during the precursory period, a plurality of battles and battle preparations are performed.

As shown in FIG. 16(a1), when the start operation is performed in the X18th game, the reels rotate. At this time, the 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, and the bell navigation is executed. At this time, an image in which the ally character and the enemy character face each other is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 16(b1), when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the bell is led to the middle reel 2C. At this time, an image in which the teammate character and the enemy character battle each other is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 16C1, when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the bell is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an image in which the teammate character and the enemy character continue the battle.

As shown in FIG. 16(d1), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the bell is led to the right reel 2R, and then the third stop release is performed, As the bell winning notification, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54. Further, since the main character has won the prize according to Bellnavi, the GET display is performed. Further, at this time, as a result of the battle, an image in which the ally character is collapsed by the attack by the enemy character is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. As a result, the player is informed that the player has not won the additional prize.

16A2 to 16D2 show effects in the X19th game. As shown in FIG. 16(a2), when the start operation is performed in the X19th game, the reels rotate. At this time, the teammate character is revived, and an image in which the teammate character and the enemy character face each other is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. It should be noted that although the 6-option bell (6-option bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, wins, the bell navigation is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 16B2, when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the replay is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, an image in which the teammate character and the enemy character battle each other is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 16(c2), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the white BAR is led to the middle reel 2C. At this time, the liquid crystal display 51 displays an image in which the teammate character and the enemy character continue the battle.

As shown in FIG. 16D2, when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the replay is led to the right reel 2R and the winning is lost. After that, when the third stop release is performed, as a result of the battle, an image indicating that the enemy character collapses due to the attack by the teammate character and the teammate character wins is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. Furthermore, an animation image in which a cloud showing "addition" appears appears on the liquid crystal display 51. As a result, the player is informed of the fact that he/she has won the prize.

As described above, in the game in which the result of the additional lottery is finally notified, the Bell Navi is not executed even if the 6-choice Bell is won, so that the player is not obstructed by the Bell Navi and is directed to the player regarding the effect regarding the additional ride notification. You can focus. Further, in the game in which the result of the additional lottery is notified during the aura period or in the case of a gaze, the bell navigation or the non-seven complete navigation can be executed, whereas the result of the additional lottery is finally notified after the aforesaid period. In the game, neither navigation is executed. As a result, it is possible to reassure the player that the leading role can be won by executing the Bell Navi in the warning period or in the game in which the result of the additional lottery is notified, and the non-7 By executing the navigation, it is possible to prevent unnecessary derivation of the seven combinations of symbols used when suggesting an advantageous transition, while in the game where the additional notification is finally given, the navigation is Since it is possible for the player to concentrate on the effect relating to the addition notification without being disturbed, it is possible to perform appropriate navigation at a suitable timing.

Returning to FIG. 10, in the X20 game during AT, AT ends, and the state shifts to CZ again from the X21 game. In the X21th game in CZ, a result notification for notifying the result of the game in AT is performed. For example, FIG. 17 is a diagram for explaining an example of result notification during CZ.

17(a1) to (d1) show effects in the X20 game, and FIGS. 17(a2) to (d2) show effects in the X21 game. As shown in FIG. 17(a1), when the start operation is performed in the X20th game, the reels rotate. At this time, the character image of “LAST game” indicating that the X20th game is the final AT game is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. At this time, the 6-choice bell (6-choice bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, and the bell navigation is executed.

As shown in FIG. 17(b1), when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the bell is led to the middle reel 2C.

As shown in FIG. 17(c1), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the bell is led to the left reel 2L.

As shown in FIG. 17(d1), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the bell is led to the right reel 2R, and then the third stop release is performed, As the bell winning notification, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54. Further, since the main character has won the prize according to Bellnavi, the GET display is performed.

As shown in FIG. 17(a2), when the start operation is performed in the X21st game, the reels rotate. At this time, a count image (an image of “TOTAL sheets” in the figure) for indicating the total payout amount of medals in AT is displayed together with the character image on the liquid crystal display 51. BGM corresponding to the result notification is output from the speakers 53 and 54. It should be noted that although the 6-option bell (6-option bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, wins, the bell navigation is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 17B2, when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the replay is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, the first digit (“0” in the figure) is shown in the count image.

As shown in FIG. 17(c2), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the white BAR is led to the middle reel 2C. At this time, the second digit (“2” in the figure) is shown in the count image.

As shown in FIG. 17(d2), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the replay is led to the right reel 2R and the winning is lost. At this time, in the count image, the third digit number (“4” in the figure) is shown, and the player is informed that 420 medals have been paid out during AT.

In this way, during the CZ after the state is changed from AT, the result of the game in AT is notified by the result notification, so the result of the game in AT is played by one game. Can be recognized by the person. Further, in the game in which the result notification is performed, the bell navigation is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won, so that the player can concentrate on the result notification without being disturbed by the bell navigation. In addition, in the game in which the result notification is performed, the GET display is not displayed even if the leading character is accidentally won. As a result, the fact that the Bell-navi is not executed is not conspicuous even if the 6-bell is won, and the result notification is not disturbed.

Returning to FIG. 10, in the X22th game in CZ, mode suggestion indicating the selection result of the probability mode in CZ is performed. After that, the CZ starts from the X23th game in the CZ. For example, FIG. 18 is a diagram for explaining an example of mode suggestion during CZ.

18(a1) to (d1) show effects in the X22 game. As shown in FIG. 18(a1), when the start operation is performed in the X22 game, the reels rotate. BGM corresponding to the mode lottery is output from the speakers 53 and 54. At this time, a character image of "mode lottery" indicating that a mode lottery for determining the probability mode in CZ is performed is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. It should be noted that although the 6-option bell (6-option bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, wins, the bell navigation is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 18(b1), when the player performs a first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, a replay is led to the left reel 2L. At this time, the three probability mode options such as the city mode corresponding to the low probability mode, the sea mode corresponding to the middle probability mode, and the night sky mode corresponding to the high probability mode are displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 18(c1), when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the white BAR is led to the middle reel 2C. At this time, the three probabilistic mode options rotate like roulette so that the options located on the front side are switched in order.

As shown in FIG. 18(d1), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the replay is led to the right reel 2R and the winning is lost. At this time, the sea mode corresponding to the middle probability mode is finally selected from the three probability modes, and only the character image of “sea mode (medium probability)” remains and is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 18(a2), when the start operation is performed in the X23th game, the reels rotate and the CZ starts.

As described above, when the CZ starts, the mode suggestion is performed to suggest the selection result of the probability mode in the CZ. Therefore, the player can recognize the probability mode in the CZ by the effect of one game. it can. Further, in the game in which such mode suggestion is performed, the Bell Navi is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won, so that the player can concentrate on the mode suggestion without being disturbed by the Bell Navi. In addition, in the game in which the mode suggestion is performed, the GET display is not displayed even if the main character is won by chance. As a result, the fact that the Bell Navi is not executed is not conspicuous even though the player has won the 6-option bell, and the mode suggestion is not disturbed.

18A2 to 18D2 show the effects in the X23 game. As shown in FIG. 18(a2), when the start operation is performed in the X23 game in the CZ, the reels rotate. At this time, an animation image of a character for indicating that the CZ is started is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. It should be noted that the 6-navigation bell (6th-election bell 3 in this example), which is the pusher, is elected, but the Bernavi is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 18(b2), when the player performs the first stop operation for stopping the left reel 2L, the replay is led to the left reel 2L. In the production, the animation image of the character is continuously displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 18C2, when the player performs the second stop operation for stopping the middle reel 2C, the white BAR is led to the middle reel 2C. In the production, the animation image of the character is continuously displayed on the liquid crystal display 51.

As shown in FIG. 18(d2), when the player performs the third stop operation for stopping the right reel 2R, the replay is led to the right reel 2R and the winning is lost. After that, when the third stop release is performed, the CZ start is suggested, and the character image of “CZ start” is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. CZ starts from the next game.

In this way, since the CZ start is suggested by suggesting the CZ start, it is possible to let the player recognize that the CZ starts from the next game by the effect of one game. Furthermore, in a game in which such a CZ start suggestion is made, since the Bernavi is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won, the player can concentrate on the CZ start suggestion without being disturbed by the Bernavi. it can. In the game in which the CZ start suggestion is given, even if the leading role is accidentally won, the GET display is not displayed. As a result, despite not winning the 6-choice bell, it is not noticeable that the Bernavi was not executed, and the suggestion to start the CZ is not disturbed.

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

(1-1) A variable display section (for example, reels 2L, 2C, 2R) capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information (for example, symbols) that can be identified,
After variably displaying the variable display unit, the display result is derived by stopping the variable display of the variable display unit, and in a slot machine (eg, slot machine 1) in which a prize can be generated according to the display result,
State control means for controlling the state (for example, a process for controlling the state by the main control unit 41),
A predetermination means for determining a display result that permits derivation (for example, a process of performing an internal lottery by the main control portion 41),
Derivation operation means (for example, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R) operated to derive the display result,
An informing unit capable of informing the operation mode of the derivation operating unit (for example, a process of executing a navigation by the main control unit 41 and the sub control unit 91),
The determination result of the pre-determination means includes an award display result (e.g., the middle row) accompanied by an award of the game value (e.g., 8 cards) larger than the game value (e.g., 3 cards) used for setting the bet number. Includes the decision result (eg, 6-choice bell) that allows the derivation of the Bell symbol combination),
The states controlled by the state control means include a first state (for example, CZ) and a second state (for example, AT),
The second state is designed so that the net increase obtained by subtracting the total number of gaming values used for setting the bet number from the total number of gaming values provided is larger than that in the first state (for example, , AT has a larger net increase per game than CZ, AT has a larger total net increase that a player can get than CZ),
The state control means can shift the state between the first state and the second state (for example, see the transition of the game state shown in FIG. 3),
The notifying means is
When the determination result of the pre-determination means is the assignment determination result, it is possible to notify a specific operation mode (for example, a correct answer procedure) corresponding to the assignment determination result,
In the game in the first state in which the transition from the first state to the second state is suggested (for example, the game of the X11 game or the X12 game shown in FIG. 14), the determination by the predetermination means is made. Even if the result is the grant determination result, the specific operation mode is not notified (for example, the bell navigation is not executed in the game in which AT transition suggestion or AT start suggestion is performed).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 14, since the AT transition is suggested during the CZ, the transition to the AT is suggested. It is possible to make the player recognize it by the effect. Further, in the game in which such AT transition suggestion is performed, since the Bernavi is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won, it is possible to concentrate on the AT transition suggestion without being disturbed by the Bernavi. it can. In this way, the number of net additions can be increased by executing the bell navigation at a suitable timing.

(1-2) The notification means is
In any of the first state and the second state, it is possible to inform the operation mode of the derivation operation means (for example, as shown in FIG. 8, the bell navigation is executed in both CZ and AT).
In the second state, the operation mode of the derivation operation means is informed with a higher probability than in the first state (for example, in AT, Bernavi is executed with a higher probability than in CZ).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, Bernavi may be executed in both CZ and AT, but in AT, Bernavi is executed with a higher probability than in CZ. Thus, not only AT but also CZ has a low probability of performing the Bell Navi, so that it is possible to reassure the player that the leading role can be won.

(1-3) In the game in which the game result in the second state is displayed on the display unit (for example, the liquid crystal display 51) (for example, the X21st game shown in FIG. 17), the notification means Even if the determination result of the pre-article determination means is the addition determination result, the specific operation mode is not notified (for example, the bell navigation is not executed in the game in which the result notification is performed).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 17, during the CZ after the state is transferred from the AT, the result notification is performed to notify the result of the game during the AT, so that the AT is being executed. The player can be made to recognize the result of the game in 1 by the effect of one game. Further, in the game in which the result notification is performed, the bell navigation is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won, so that the player can concentrate on the result notification without being disturbed by the bell navigation. In this way, the number of net additions can be increased by executing the bell navigation at a suitable timing.

(1-4) In the first state, the game is performed in any one of a plurality of types of modes having different transition probabilities to the second state (for example, low probability mode, medium probability mode, high probability mode) Progresses,
In the game in which the type of mode is suggested (for example, the game of the X22 game shown in FIG. 18), the notifying unit performs the specific operation even if the determination result of the pre-determination unit is the grant determination result. The mode is not notified (for example, the bell navigation is not executed in the game in which the mode is suggested).

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 8 and 18, the mode suggestion is performed to suggest the selection result of the probability mode in the CZ. Therefore, the probability mode in the CZ is represented by one game by the player. Can be recognized. Further, in the game in which such mode suggestion is performed, the Bell Navi is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won, so that the player can concentrate on the mode suggestion without being disturbed by the Bell Navi. In this way, the number of net additions can be increased by executing the bell navigation at a suitable timing.

(1-5) The determination result of the pre-determination means includes a special determination result (for example, cherry winning) that allows derivation of a special display result (for example, a cherry symbol combination),
When the determination result of the pre-determination means is the special determination result, the special display result may not be derived according to the operation mode of the derivation operation means (for example, cherry prize may be missed).
Suggestion production means (for example, suggestion of winning by the main control unit 41 and sub control unit 91) for performing suggestion production (for example, suggesting winning combination) that suggests that the determination result of the pre-determination unit is the special determination result. Further processing),
The suggestion effect means can execute the suggestion effect even in a game in which the specific operation mode is not notified by the notification means (for example, the game without navigation shown in FIG. 8).

Specifically, as in the case of the X9 game shown in FIG. 10, when a rare role, such as cherry, is won, a winning suggestion is made, so that the player is aimed to win the suggested rare role. It is possible to avoid losing the prize of the rare role. Further, as shown in FIG. 9, since such a winning suggestion is given when a rare role is won even in a NAVI-free game in CZ, even in a NAVI-free game, the winning of a rare role is won. It is possible to avoid missing.

(1-6) Specific prize notification capable of executing a specific prize notification (for example, GET display in the bell prize notification) for notifying that a specific prize (for example, a winning prize of a protagonist) is generated in accordance with the derivation of the award display result. Means (for example, a process of performing a bell prize notification by the sub-control unit 91),
In the game in which the specific operation mode is not notified by the notification unit (for example, the X5th game in FIG. 12), the specific prize notification unit does not execute the specific prize notification even if the specific prize occurs. (For example, the GET display is not performed in the game in which the bell navigation is not executed).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 12, in the game in which the bell navigation is not executed during the CZ, the GET display is not performed in the bell winning notification even if the main character wins. By doing this, it is possible to avoid making the player aware of winning the 6-choice bell as much as possible during the CZ, and to make it clear that the Bernavi has not been executed in spite of winning the 6-choice bell. Nor.

(1-7) In the determination result of the pre-determination means, a specific determination is permitted in which the derivation of a specific display result (for example, a symbol combination of 7 uniform lips) and a predetermined display result (for example, a symbol combination of normal lips) is allowed. Includes results (eg special lip wins),
The advantage of the player does not change regardless of whether the specific display result or the predetermined display result is derived (for example, the 7-repeat rep and the normal rep are both replays),
The notifying means is
When the determination result of the pre-determination means is the specific determination result, it is possible to notify a predetermined operation mode for deriving the previous predetermined display result (for example, an operation mode other than reverse pressing),
In a game that does not notify the specific operation mode (for example, a game without navigation), the predetermined operation mode is not notified even if the determination result of the pre-determination means is the specific determination result (for example, as shown in FIG. 8). In addition, in the game without navigation, non-7 navigation is not executed).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, in the game without navigation, the non-7 complete navigation is not executed. Therefore, it is possible to avoid making the player misunderstand that the bell navigation is executed in the game without navigation as much as possible. ..

(1-8) Benefit notification means (eg, main control unit) that notifies the grant of the privilege when a predetermined period (eg, precursory period) has elapsed after the condition for granting the privilege (eg, AT addition) is satisfied. 41 and a process of informing the AT winning by the sub-control unit 91),
The notification means can notify the operation mode of the derivation operation means during the predetermined period, but does not notify the specific operation mode in a game in which the privilege is notified by the privilege notification means (for example, As shown in FIG. 8, FIG. 10, and FIG. 16, Bellnavi is executed during the precursory period, whereas Bellnavi is not executed in the game in which the additional information is given).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, FIG. 10, and FIG. 16, the bell navigation is executed during the warning period, whereas the bell navigation is not executed in the game in which the additional information is given. As a result, during the warning period, it is possible to reassure the player that the leading role can be won by executing the bell navigation, while the navigation is disturbed in the game in which the additional information is given. Instead, since it is possible to concentrate on the player regarding the effect regarding the additional information, the bell navigation can be performed at a suitable timing.

(1-9) A privilege that notifies the grant of the privilege after executing a continuous effect (for example, battle effect) for a predetermined period (for example, a precursory period) after the condition for granting the privilege (for example, AT addition) is satisfied. A notification unit (for example, a process of notifying the AT winning by the main control unit 41 and the sub control unit 91),
In the effect pattern of the continuous effect, after the first game (for example, the X18th game shown in FIG. 16) in which it is suggested that the privilege is not awarded is passed, the second in which it is suggested that the privilege is awarded. A pattern in which a game (for example, a game of the X19th game shown in FIG. 16) is performed is included,
The notification means can notify the operation mode of the derivation operation means in the first game, but does not notify the specific operation mode in the second game (for example, FIGS. 8, 10, and 16). As shown in (1), Bellnavi is executed in the game in which the result of the additional lottery is notified, whereas Bellnavi is not executed in the game in which the result of the true additional lottery is notified).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8, FIG. 10, and FIG. 16, Bell Navi is executed in the game in which the result of the additional lottery of Gase is notified, whereas the result of the true additional lottery is notified. In the game played, Bernavi is not executed. As a result, in the game in which the result of the additional lottery of Gase is informed, it is possible to reassure the player that the leading role can be won by executing the Bernavi, while the result of the true additional lottery is In the game in which the additional notification is notified, the player can concentrate on the effect related to the additional notification without being disturbed by the navigation, so that the bell navigation can be performed at a suitable timing.

(2-1) A variable display section (for example, reels 2L, 2C, 2R) capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information (for example, symbols) that can be identified,
After variably displaying the variable display unit, the display result is derived by stopping the variable display of the variable display unit, and in a slot machine (eg, slot machine 1) in which a prize can be generated according to the display result,
State control means for controlling the state (for example, a process for controlling the state by the main control unit 41),
A predetermination means for determining a display result that permits derivation (for example, a process of performing an internal lottery by the main control portion 41),
Derivation operation means (for example, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R) operated to derive the display result,
An informing unit capable of informing the operation mode of the derivation operating unit (for example, a process of executing a navigation by the main control unit 41 and the sub control unit 91),
The determination result of the pre-determination means includes an award display result (e.g., the middle row) accompanied by an award of the game value (e.g., 8 cards) larger than the game value (e.g., 3 cards) used for setting the bet number. Includes the decision result (eg, 6-choice bell) that allows the derivation of the Bell symbol combination),
The states controlled by the state control means include a first state (for example, CZ) and a second state (for example, AT), and a third state (controlled to the first state or the second state). For example, normal time) and
The notifying means is
When the determination result of the pre-determination means is the assignment determination result, it is possible to notify a specific operation mode (for example, a correct answer procedure) corresponding to the assignment determination result,
In the second state, the specific operation mode can be notified with a higher probability than in the first state when the determination result of the pre-determining means is the assignment determination result (for example, in FIG. 8). As shown, in AT, Bernavi occurs with a higher probability than in CZ),
In the third state, with a higher probability than in the first state, when the determination result of the pre-determining means is the grant determination result, a suggestion effect associated with the grant determination result is executed (for example, , As shown in FIG. 9(f), in a normal time, the winning suggestion is performed with a higher probability than in CZ).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9(f), in a normal time, the winning suggestion is performed with a higher probability than that of CZ. That is, when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, the frequency of suggesting a winning combination relating to the 6-option bell winning is lower than when the 6-option bell is normally won. As a result, it is possible to prevent the player from recognizing that the player has won the 6-option bell during the CZ, and the player is dissatisfied with the fact that the navigation is not executed even though the 6-option bell is won. You can make it feel as little as possible.

(2-2) In the first state, when the determination result of the pre-determination means is the assignment determination result, it is suggested whether or not to shift from the first state to the second state ( For example, the fact that the AT lottery has been performed and the AT winning has been suggested by the chance effect performed in the X10 game shown in FIG. 13).

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 9C and 13, in the CZ, when the 6-option bell is won, the bell navigation is not executed but the chance effect is executed. As a result, it is possible to suggest to the player that the AT lottery has been performed and the AT win, by the chance effect, so that the interest of the game can be improved.

(2-3) In the first state, when the determination result of the pre-determination means is the assignment determination result, a lottery is performed to determine whether or not to shift to the second state (for example, FIG. 7). As shown in (c), the AT lottery is held when the 6-choice bell is won).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7C, the AT lottery is performed when the 6-option bell is won. As a result, even if the Bell Navi is not executed when the 6-choice Bell is won in the CZ, the AT lottery is performed, so the player is complained that the Bell-Navi is not executed even though the 6-choice Bell is won. You can make it feel as little as possible.

(2-4) In the first state, when the determination result of the pre-determination unit is the assignment determination result, the suggestive effect (for example, the role of the white effect shown in FIG. 12 is obtained by using a white image. Winning suggestion) is executed,
In the third state, when the determination result of the pre-determining means is the assignment determination result, the suggestive effect (for example, the suggestion of winning a role by the yellow effect shown in FIG. 11) is executed using a yellow image. To be done.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9B, FIG. 11 and FIG. 12, in the normal state, when the 6-option bell is won, a yellow effect suggestion of the winning part is given, whereas in the CZ. When the 6-choice bell is won, the white-winning effect suggests a winning role. In this way, when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, not all the effects in the image of yellow are executed as in the normal case when the 6-option bell is won, but all the roles (including the loss) are dealt with. Since the effect of imagining white is executed, it is possible to avoid making the player aware of winning the 6-option bell as much as possible during the CZ.

(2-5) In the first state, with a higher probability than in the third state, an effect occurs when the determination result of the pre-determining means is the assignment determination result (for example, FIG. 9(e As shown in ), when the 6-option bell is won in the CZ, one of the effects such as the role-winning suggestion effect and the chance effect is executed with a higher probability than when the 6-option bell is won in the normal time.) ..

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9(e), in the 6-choice bell winning production lottery, when the 6-choice bell is won in the CZ, there is a higher probability than in the normal case when the 6-choice bell is won. , One of the effects such as a winning suggestion effect and a chance effect is executed. As a result, the CZ can be made heavier by the effect than in the normal state.

(2-6) In the second state, a prize notification (for example, a bell) that informs that a specific prize (for example, a winning prize of a leading character) is generated in accordance with the derivation of the addition display result in the second state. The winning notification is performed in an emphasized notification mode (for example, as shown in FIG. 9A, GET display is performed in the bell winning notification in AT, whereas GET display is performed in the bell winning notification in CZ). Is not done).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9A, the GET display is performed in the bell winning notification in AT, whereas the GET display is not performed in the bell winning notification in CZ. As a result, when the main character wins in AT, it can be emphasized that the main character has won, rather than when the main character wins in CZ.

(2-7) In the second state, there are a plurality of types of prize notifications (for example, bell prize notifications) that notify that a specific prize (for example, a winning prize of a leading character) has occurred in accordance with the derivation of the addition display result. Of the production means (for example, the side lamp 27, the reel backlight 28, the speakers 53 and 54, the liquid crystal display 51),
In the first state, the prize notification is performed using any one of the plurality of types of effect means (for example, the side lamp 27, the reel backlight 28, the speakers 53, 54).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9A, in the bell prize notification in the AT, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on, the prize sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54, and further, the liquid crystal display 51. In contrast to the GET display, in the bell prize notification in CZ, the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28 are turned on and the prize sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54. As a result, when the main character wins during AT, it can be emphasized that the main character wins, rather than when the main character wins during CZ, and the game during AT can be excited.

[Modification]
Although the main embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications and applications are possible. Hereinafter, modified examples of the above-described embodiment applicable to the present invention will be described.

[About Bernavi]
In the present embodiment, the probability is lower in CZ than in AT, but when the six-choice bell is won, the Bernavi is executed. However, the slot machine is not limited to this, and may be configured as follows.

The notification means does not notify the operation mode of the derivation operation means in both the first state and the third state (for example, the bell navigation is not executed in both CZ and normal times).

As described above, in the CZ, the bell navigation may not be executed at all when the 6-option bell is won. That is, in the CZ, the probability of performing the Bell navigation may be 0%.

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 16, as the notification of the goose, the bell navigation is not executed in the game in which the player is informed that the player has not won the addition, but the bell navigation is not executed. As a notification, in the game in which the player is notified of the fact that the player has won the additional prize, the Bernavi has been designed to be executed, but the relationship between the additional notification and the execution of the Bernavi may be configured as follows. ..

That is, when the presence or absence of additional winning is notified as a result of the final continuous production (for example, battle production) after the precursory period, in the final game in which the presence or absence of additional winning is finally notified, a 6-option bell is displayed. Even if you win, Bernavi does not run. Further, in the pre-final game in which the presence or absence of a win is notified as a gusset before the final game, the bell navigation is not executed even if the 6-option bell is won.

Alternatively, when the presence or absence of additional winning is notified as a result of the final continuous production (for example, battle production) after the warning period, in the final game in which the presence or absence of additional winning is finally notified, a 6-option bell is displayed. Even if you win, Bernavi is not executed. On the other hand, in the pre-final game, in which the presence or absence of winning is notified as a gusset before the final game, the bell navigation is executed when the 6-option bell is won. In this case, the 6-option bell is won regardless of whether it is reported that the player has won the additional win in the final pre-game or not when the fact that the extra win has been announced in the final pre-game. When you do, Bernavi is executed.

Further, during the CZ, as in the case of during the AT, the additional lottery for extending the control period of the CZ may be performed. Further, regarding the notification of the result of the additional lottery during the CZ, the presence/absence of the additional prize may be performed after the warning period as in the case of the AT. Further, even during CZ, as in the case of AT, in a game in which the player is informed of the fact that he/she has not won an additional win, as a notification of a race, in a game in which no additional bonus is given, a true notification is given while the bell navigation is not executed. Alternatively, in the game in which the player is informed that the player has won the additional prize, the bell navigation may be executed. The modified example described above can also be applied to the additional notification during CZ.

[About Bell prize notification]
In the present embodiment, in the game in which the bell navigation is not executed even though the 6-choice bell is won in the CZ (the game without navigation), the GET display is not performed as the winning notification, but the side lamp 27 and the reel are not displayed. The backlight 28 is turned on and the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54. However, it is not limited to this.

For example, in the game without navigation, the winning sound may not be output from the speakers 53 and 54. That is, in the game in which the 6-navigation bell is won in the CZ and the bell navigation is executed, the winning sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54, and the GET display is performed, which is more important than the game without the navigation in the CZ. The prize notification may be emphasized. In this way, the bell prize notification does not disturb the AT transition suggestion, the result notice, and the voice in the mode suggestion that can be performed in the game without navigation.

Note that various configurations, various processes, timings of various processes, and the like in the above-described present embodiment and modified examples can be appropriately combined.

The embodiments disclosed this time are to be considered as illustrative in all points and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is shown not by the above description but by the claims, and is intended to include meanings equivalent to the claims and all modifications within the scope.
