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, deriving the display result by stopping the variable display of the variable display unit. The present invention relates to a slot machine in which a prize can be generated according to the display result.

A slot machine generally has a variable display section having a reel on which a plurality of types of symbols as identification information are drawn on the outer periphery, and by operating a start switch with a prescribed number of bets 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, a symbol combination is displayed, or 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 role 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-play combination is derived on the pay line, the next game can be played without consuming a new medal for setting the bet number.

As a slot machine like this, when the bonus is not won in the game where the bonus is won, by carrying over the bonus win, the internal bonus is controlled to be higher, and the winning probability of the replay during the bonus is higher than that in the non-internal bonus. A slot machine in which the winning probability in the internal lottery is set so as to become (for example, Patent Document 1) or a gaming machine that continuously executes the second part effect after executing the first part effect (eg, Patent Document 2) or a gaming machine (for example, Patent Document 3) that enlarges an image without changing the position of the image to give the player a strong impression of the image that the player wants to see. There is.

In addition, the first stop operation, the second stop operation, and the third stop operation are also collectively referred to as “stop operation”. Further, the release of the depression (first stop operation) on the first stop switch (eg, releasing the hand from the stop switch) is “first stop release” and the depression on the second stop switch (second stop operation). 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., the stop switch). (Releasing hand from) is also referred to as "third stop release" or "final 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 corresponding to each of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R, and that irradiates light to each of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R 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, a speaker 53 that outputs sound is provided.

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 by 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 The 3BET LED 16 that lights up to notify that the game is being played, the insertion request LED 17 that lights up to indicate that a medal can be inserted, and the start valid LED 18 that lights up to indicate that the game start operation by operating the start switch 7 is valid. The game display unit 13 is provided with a status LED 19 that lights up to inform that it is controlled to a state such as an advantageous section AT described later, and a replaying LED 20 that lights up to inform that a replay game is in progress. There is.

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 according to 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 the like related to the progress of the game.

Inside the slot machine 1, a sub-control unit 91 that controls the effect according 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. The sub control unit 91 controls display of images on the liquid crystal display 51, sound output from the speaker 53, turning on/off of the side lamp 27 and the reel backlight 28, and the like, based on commands from the main control unit 41. .. The effect data used for the image display of the liquid crystal display 51 and the sound output of the speaker 53 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 speaker 53 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 becomes valid, and the operation of the start switch 7 becomes valid 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, a so-called Oyama line is defined as the winning line, such as the lower stage of the reel 2L, the middle stage of the reel 2C, and the lower stage of the reel 2R. The winning line is not limited to the small mountain, and may be provided horizontally in the middle stage such as the middle stage of the reel 2L, the middle stage of the reel 2C, and the middle stage of the reel 2R. Lines may be provided. In addition, an ineffective line may be provided to make it easy to recognize that the combination of symbols forming the winning is aligned with the winning line LN.

When the start switch 7 is operated in a state where the game can be started, the reels 2L, 2C, 2R rotate. At this time, an internal lottery is performed by the main control unit 41. The internal lottery is a process of determining a symbol combination (display result combination) that is permitted to be derived.

Specifically, in the internal lottery process, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not each lottery target winning combination has been won in a predetermined order. For example, in the internal lottery process, the main control unit 41 acquires a random number from an integer within a predetermined range (0 to 65535). To each lottery target winning combination, the number of determination values according to the RT state is previously assigned from the integers within the predetermined range (0 to 65535). The main control unit 41 adds the determination value number of each lottery target combination to the acquired random number in a predetermined order, and when the addition result overflows (exceeds 65535), the addition target at that point The winning lottery target that has been determined to be the winning role. By winning the lottery target combination by the internal lottery, the derivation of the symbol combination corresponding to the lottery target combination is allowed.

The manager can change the winning probability of the winning combination in the internal lottery by changing the setting. Specifically, the payout rate of coins (payout rate) is changed by determining the winning probability used in the internal lottery according to the set value set by the administrator. The set value is made up of 6 levels from 1 to 6, where 6 is the highest payout rate and the payout rate becomes lower as the value decreases in the order of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. That is, when 6 is set as the set value, the advantage is the highest for the player, and as the value decreases in the order of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, the advantage decreases in stages.

In order to change the set value, the power switch of the power box provided inside the slot machine 1 is operated, and if the power of the slot machine 1 is ON, the slot machine 1 is once turned OFF, and then the setting is made. It is necessary to operate the key switch to turn on the setting key switch and then turn on the power source of the slot machine 1. When the setting key switch is turned on and the power source of the slot machine 1 is turned on, the state is changed to the setting change state in which the game cannot proceed, on condition that the door is open. When shifting to the setting change state, the current set value read from the RAM 41c is displayed on the set value display as a display value.

In the setting change state, when the reset/setting switch is operated, the display value displayed on the set value display is updated by one (when the setting 6 is further operated, the setting is returned to the setting 1). After that, when the start switch 7 is operated, the display value is set as the set value. When the setting key switch is turned off, the confirmed display value (setting value) is stored in the RAM 41c, and the game is allowed to proceed. The operation is collectively referred to as a setting changing operation because the setting is changed by turning off the power switch once, turning on the setting key switch and turning on the power switch.

When the setting is changed, the information about the game stored in the RAM 41c is initialized. Therefore, for example, as will be described later, when the setting is changed during the advantageous period, information in the advantageous period (for example, points accumulated in the advantageous period normal) is initialized and the information is output to the normal period. The ball state shifts.

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 the pattern for 80 (rotation)×20 (the number of symbol frames per reel, for example, 20 frames)=1600 frames is changed, 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 displayed when the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R are operated and the symbols up to four frames ahead of them, a total of five symbols (withdrawal range) Can be selected and led to the reels 2L, 2R, 2R.

As a winning combination, there are a special winning combination (bonus), a small winning combination, and a re-gaming winning combination. 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, BB is provided as a special character. The small role is a role to which a medal is given by winning the prize. The replay role (replay) is a role in which, by winning the prize, the next game can be started without consuming a medal owned by the player.

In order for the winning of each winning combination determined according to the gaming state (RT state) to occur, it is necessary to win the internal lottery and set the winning flag of the winning combination. In the internal lottery, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the winning of each winning combination described above is permitted before the display results of all the reels 2L, 2C, 2R are derived (specifically, the start switch 7 (When is detected), it is determined 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 allowed combinations is completed, and is invalid in the game in which the combination of allowed 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, that winning flag will not be invalidated and will be carried over to the next game. ing.

Further, in the internal lottery, when the stop operation is performed in a predetermined operation mode (for example, operation sequence (push order), operation timing), it is more advantageous than when the stop operation is performed in another operation mode. Small wins and re-gaming wins (hereinafter, also referred to as "push wins") can be elected. For example, when the stop operation is performed in a predetermined operation mode set in advance, the push order combination is a stop mode that is more advantageous than the stop mode in which the stop operation is performed when the stop operation is performed in another operation mode. In addition, when the stop operation is performed in a predetermined predetermined operation mode, a combination in which the advantageous stop mode is stopped at a higher rate than when the stop operation is performed in another operation mode is included. 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 navigation information corresponding to the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, which is advantageous to the player when the player wins the push combination 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 to an assist time (advantageous section AT) that is a different notification period.

As will be described later in detail, the main control unit 41 normally determines an advantageous section transition lottery that determines whether or not to control the state to a payout state in an advantageous section when a predetermined predetermined lottery condition is satisfied. Then, the control in the payout state in the advantageous section is started by winning the advantageous section transition lottery. Winning the advantageous section transition lottery is also referred to as "advantageous section winning". In the payout state in the advantageous section, the main control unit 41 executes the navigation notification when the push forward combination is won, and the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R which is advantageous to the player (for example, the operation. (The order, the operation timing, etc.) is notified using the game auxiliary display 12, and a command capable of specifying an operation mode that is advantageous to the player is transmitted to the sub-control unit 91, so that the operation mode is displayed on the liquid crystal display. A navigation effect to be informed using the display 51 or the like is executed.

In a game in which the player wins the push order combination, when the player's operation mode matches the operation mode corresponding to the selected push order combination (hereinafter, also referred to as “correct answer procedure”), a beneficial combination for the player (this implementation). In the form of, the role of plum) will win.

By operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the correct answer procedure in accordance with the navigation, the player can win the winning combination of the winning combinations, which has a larger number of medals. Alternatively, by operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the correct answer procedure in accordance with the navigation, the player can win a winning combination that is not likely to fail to win, out of the winning combinations included in the pushing forward combination. In addition, among the combinations included in the push sequence combination, the winning combination that can be won when the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated in the correct answer procedure is the “main character”, and the stop switch 8L in the 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 main character included in the push order winning in the internal lottery. Has become.

[State transition]
FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the RT state. FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the payout state. FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining the outline of each state. As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the states managed by the main control unit 41 include a gaming state (RT state) related to the winning probability in the internal lottery and a payout state related to payout.

RT states include non-internal, internal, and BB. 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 BB is won and the winning of the BB 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 BB is carried over.

A game that can win a BB (hereinafter, also referred to as a “BB winning game”) may be played both inside and outside. Specifically, in the non-inside, if the symbol combination of BB can be derived in accordance with the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in the game winning BB, the BB is won. In this case, the RT state is controlled to BB from the next game. That is, in the non-inside, the game that wins the BB becomes the BB winning game.

Inside, the BB election has been carried over. Here, when the BB and the small winning combination are simultaneously won, the reel control is performed so as to preferentially derive the symbol combination of the small winning combination. Furthermore, if the small win is a non-missing win, in the game in which both BB and the small win are simultaneously won, the small win will always win regardless of the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, and the BB will win. I can't. Similarly, when the BB and the re-game combination are won at the same time, the reel control is performed so as to preferentially derive the symbol combination of the re-game combination. Generally, the re-gaming role is a non-missing part, so in a game in which the BB and the re-gaming role are simultaneously won, the re-gaming role always wins regardless of the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R. Cannot win. Therefore, in the inside, if it is possible to derive the symbol combination of BB in accordance with the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, only in the games that are lost in the internal lottery (games in which no winning is won). , BB. In this case, the RT state is controlled to BB from the next game. That is, inside the game, the game that is lost in the internal lottery becomes the BB winning game.

In the BB, the BB game is played over a predetermined number of games (for example, 60G), but the payout rate in the BB is about 101%, so the net additional number hardly increases. Therefore, the BB is merely a state for the player to consume a predetermined number of games (for example, 60G). When BB ends, the RT state shifts to the non-inside again.

In the present embodiment, as the payout status managed by the main control unit 41, the payout status=0, the payout status=1, the payout status=2, the payout status=3, the payout status=4, Six types of payout states are provided: a payout state=5 and a payout state=6. The payout status = 0 is called "normal", the payout status = 1 is called "advantageous area normal", the payout status = 2 is called "advantageous area CZ", and the payout status = 3 is "advantageous area bonus". The payout state=4 is referred to as “advantageous section AT”, the payout state=5 is referred to as “advantageous section specialized zone”, and the payout state=6 is referred to as “advantageous section ending”.

The main control unit 41 stores a payout flag in a predetermined area as information for managing the payout state. For example, the main control unit 41 stores a payout flag so that the payout status=0 can be specified during normal control of the status, and the payout status= during the normal control of the advantageous section= The payout flag is stored so that 1 can be specified, and while the state is controlled in the advantageous zone CZ, the payout flag is stored so that the payout state=2 can be identified, and the state is controlled by the advantageous zone bonus. During the period, the payout flag is stored so that the payout state=3 can be specified, and while the condition is controlled in the advantageous section AT, the payout flag is stored so that the payout state=4 can be specified, and the advantageous section is specialized The payout flag is stored so that the payout status=5 can be specified while controlling the status in the zone, and the payout status=6 can be specified while controlling the status in the advantageous zone ending. Memorize The management of each payout state is not limited to using the payout flag, and other methods may be used.

Usually, it is also called a normal section. Advantageous Zone Normally, the advantageous zone CZ, the advantageous zone bonus, the advantageous zone AT, the advantageous zone specialized zone, and the advantageous zone ending are collectively referred to as an advantageous zone.

The normal section (normal) is a state in which navigation is not executed, and is a non-reporting state in which navigation information cannot be reported. The advantageous section is a state in which navigation can be executed, and is a notification state in which navigation information can be notified. In the present embodiment, among the advantageous sections, the advantageous section normal and the advantageous section CZ are not navigated, but the advantageous section bonus, the advantageous section AT, the advantageous section specialized zone, and the advantageous section ending are all Navigation can also be performed. It should be noted that the navigation may be executed in the advantageous section normal or the advantageous section CZ, but for example, in the advantageous section AT, the leading role is won at the time of pushing forward winning compared to the advantageous section normal or the advantageous section CZ. The probability of executing the navigator to make it happen is high.

The payout state and the RT state make state transitions independently of each other. In the present embodiment, it is possible to control the payout state in each of the non-inside and the inside. On the other hand, in BB, no payout state is provided.

For example, when the RT state is in the non-inside and the payout state is in the advantageous section normal, when the BB is won, the RT state shifts to the inside, but the payout state is maintained in the advantageous section normal. When the RT state is inside and the payout state is in the advantageous section normal, when the BB is won, the RT state is controlled to BB, but there is no payout state in the BB. After that, when the BB ends, the RT state shifts to the non-internal state, and the payout state is again controlled to the original advantageous section normal.

Further, when the RT state is non-internal and the payout state is the advantageous section AT, when the BB is won and the BB is won, the RT state is controlled to BB, but the payout state does not exist in the BB. .. After that, when BB ends, the RT state shifts to the non-inside, and the payout state is again controlled to the original advantageous section AT.

For example, when the advantageous section is won when the RT state is inside and the payout state is normal, the payout state is controlled to the advantageous section normal while the RT state remains inside. Further, when the AT is won when the RT state is inside and the payout state is in the advantageous zone CZ, the payout state is controlled to the advantageous zone AT while the RT state remains inside.

Normally, when a win is obtained in the advantageous section transition lottery (advantageous section winning), the state is controlled to a payout state in the advantageous section. In the present embodiment, the winning of most of the winning combinations that can be won during the normal condition is a condition for winning the advantageous section, so the normal game stay is about 1G. The conditions for winning the advantageous section may be satisfied when any of all the winning combinations that can be won during normal times is won.

Normally, Navi is not executed in the game that wins the push order, so the net increase in the number of games per player that can be obtained is 0 or a negative value when the number of medals used to set the bet number is taken into consideration. become. The net additional number 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. In this embodiment, the normal payout rate is set to 40%. Thus, normally, the payout rate is 1 or less (100% or less) or less than 1 (less than 100%).

Advantageous section Normally, navigation is not executed in the game that wins the push order, so the net increase in the number of games per player that can be obtained is 0 in consideration of the number of medals used to set the bet number. Or it will be negative. In this embodiment, the normal payout rate in the game section is set to 40%. As described above, in the advantageous section normal, the payout rate is 1 or less (100% or less) or less than 1 (less than 100%).

The advantageous zone CZ has a higher probability of being controlled to the advantageous zone bonus or the advantageous zone AT than the advantageous zone normal, and is in a state of being located on the way route from the advantageous zone normal to the advantageous zone bonus or the advantageous zone AT. Winning such that the state is controlled from the advantageous section normal to the advantageous section CZ is also referred to as “CZ winning”.

In the advantageous zone CZ, as in the case of the advantageous zone normal, since the navigation is not executed in the game that wins the push order, the net increase in number of games per player that can be obtained by the player is the number of medals used for setting the bet number. Considering the number of sheets, 0 or negative. In the present embodiment, the payout rate in the game zone CZ is set to 40%, which is the same as in the advantage zone normal. Thus, in the advantageous zone CZ, the payout rate is 1 or less (100% or less) or less than 1 (less than 100%). Although the advantageous zone CZ has the same payout rate as the advantageous zone normal, the probability of being controlled by the advantageous zone AT per game is set to be higher than that of the advantageous zone normal.

The advantageous zone bonus is a so-called pseudo bonus that can be controlled from both the advantage zone normal and the advantage zone CZ, and can increase the net additional number that the player can obtain by following the navigation. When the advantage zone bonus ends, the state is always controlled to the advantage zone AT.

It should be noted that, in the opportunity to win the middle tier cherry 7 win or the middle tier cherry character win, which will be described later, the win can be directly controlled to the advantage zone bonus without the advantage zone normal and the advantage zone CZ, or an advantage. The winning in which the advantageous section bonus is directly controlled to the advantageous section bonus without passing through the section CZ is also referred to as “direct hit bonus winning”. In addition, the 7 common 1 wins and the 1 character wins, which will be described later, are used as a trigger to win the prizes that are directly controlled to the advantageous zone bonus without the advantageous zone CZ, and the "common bonus win". ". Furthermore, the winning in which the state is controlled from the advantageous zone CZ to the advantageous zone bonus is also referred to as “bonus winning”.

In the advantageous zone bonus, since the navigation is executed in the game that wins the push forward combination, the net increase in the number of games per player that can be obtained by the player, even if the number of medals used to set the bet number is taken into consideration. , Will be a plus. In the present embodiment, the payout rate of the advantageous section bonus is set to 150%. In this way, in the advantageous section bonus, the payout rate exceeds 1 (100%). Therefore, the advantageous zone bonus is more advantageous than both the advantageous zone normal and the advantageous zone CZ.

The advantageous zone AT is in a state of being controllable from both the advantageous zone bonus and the advantageous zone CZ. A win in which the state is controlled from the advantageous zone CZ to the advantageous zone AT is also referred to as “AT win”. In the advantageous section AT, since the navigation is executed in the game selected as the push forward combination, the net increase in the number of games per player that can be obtained by the player is calculated even if the number of medals used for setting the bet number is taken into consideration. , Will be a plus. In the present embodiment, the payout rate of the advantageous section AT is set to 200%. Thus, in the advantageous section AT, the payout rate exceeds 1 (100%). Therefore, the advantageous section AT is in a more advantageous state than both the advantageous section, the advantageous section CZ, and the advantageous section bonus.

The advantageous zone specialized zone is a state in which control is possible from the advantageous zone AT. Winning in which the state is controlled from the advantageous zone AT to the advantageous zone specialized zone is also referred to as “specialized zone winning”. In the advantageous zone specialization zone, the navigation is executed in the game that wins the push order, so the net increase in number of games per player that can be won is based on the number of medals used to set the number of bets. But it will be a plus. In the present embodiment, the payout rate of the advantageous zone specializing zone is set to 200%. As described above, in the advantageous zone specialized zone, the payout rate exceeds 1 (100%). Furthermore, in the advantageous zone specialized zone, the number of AT games may be added. For this reason, if the zone is controlled to the advantageous zone specialized zone, the period controlled by the AT is easily extended. Therefore, the advantageous zone specialization zone is in a more advantageous state than all of the advantageous zone, the advantageous zone CZ, the advantageous zone bonus, and the advantageous zone AT.

Normally, when the direct hit bonus is won, the state is controlled to the advantageous section bonus. Note that normally, when the direct hit bonus is won, a precursor effect that suggests or agitates that the state is controlled by the advantageous zone bonus is not executed. In addition, normally, when the advantageous section is won, the state is controlled to the advantageous section normal.

Advantageous section Normally, when the direct hit bonus is won, the state is controlled to the advantageous section bonus. In addition, when the direct hit bonus is won in the advantage section normal, the precursor effect that suggests or agitates that the state is controlled by the advantage section bonus is not executed. In this way, in both the normal and the advantageous section normal cases, when the direct hit bonus is won, a precursor effect that suggests or agitates that the state is controlled by the advantageous section bonus is not executed.

Further, in the advantage section normal, when the common bonus is won, the state is controlled to the advantage section bonus. In addition, when the common bonus is won in the advantage section normal, a precursor effect that suggests or agitates that the state is controlled by the advantage section bonus is executed. For example, when the common bonus is won in the advantage section normal, the common bonus is won by the character image or the lighting of the lamp in the game in which the common bonus is won, or one or more games after the next game, and the advantage section bonus. Is performed to suggest or agitate that the state is controlled, and then the state is controlled by the advantageous zone bonus. As described above, when the common bonus is won in the advantage section normal, a precursor effect is suggested which suggests or agitates that the state is controlled by the advantage section bonus.

Further, normally, when the CZ is won, the state is controlled to the advantageous section CZ. In addition, when the CZ is won in the advantageous section normal, a precursor effect is suggested which suggests or agitates that the state is controlled in the advantageous section CZ. For example, when the CZ is won in the advantageous zone normal, in the game in which the CZ is won, or in one or a plurality of games after the next game, the fact that the CZ is won and the state in the advantageous zone CZ is obtained by lighting the character image or the lamp. An effect that suggests or incites to be controlled is performed, and then the state is controlled in the advantageous zone CZ.

In the advantageous zone CZ, when the bonus is won, the state is controlled to the advantageous zone bonus. In addition, when a bonus is won in the advantageous zone CZ, a precursor effect that suggests or agitates that the state is controlled by the advantageous zone bonus is executed. For example, when a bonus is won in the advantageous zone CZ, in the game in which the bonus is won, or in one or more games after the next game, the fact that the bonus is won and the advantageous zone bonus is indicated by lighting a character image or a lamp. An effect that suggests or incites to be controlled is performed, and then the state is controlled by the advantageous zone bonus. Further, in the advantageous zone CZ, when the AT is won, the state is controlled to the advantageous zone AT. In addition, when AT is won in the advantageous zone CZ, a symptom effect is executed that suggests or agitates that the state is controlled in the advantageous zone AT. For example, when an AT is won in the advantageous zone CZ, in the game in which the AT is won, or in one or more games after the next game, the fact that the AT has been won and the state in the advantageous zone AT is confirmed due to lighting of a character image or a lamp. An effect that suggests or incites to be controlled is performed, and then the state is controlled to the advantageous section AT.

The control to the advantageous section CZ is managed by, for example, the number of games, and the advantageous section CZ ends when the number of games consumed in the advantageous section CZ reaches the preset upper limit number of games. ..

The control to the advantageous section AT is managed by, for example, the number of games, and the advantageous section AT ends when the number of games consumed in the advantageous section AT reaches a preset upper limit number of games. .. In addition, the advantageous section AT is not limited to be managed by the number of games, and the number of times the navigation is executed reaches a preset upper limit number, and the number of winnings of the protagonist at the time of pushing forward winning is a preset upper limit number. May be controlled based on other conditions, such as reaching the maximum number of payouts and the number of net additions reaching a preset upper limit.

The control to the advantageous zone specializing zone is managed by, for example, the number of games, and the advantageous zone is controlled on condition that the number of games consumed in the advantageous zone specializing zone reaches a preset upper limit number of games. The specialization zone ends. The advantageous zone specialization zone is not limited to the one managed by the number of games, and the number of times of executing the navigation reaches the preset upper limit number and the number of winnings of the protagonist at the time of pushing forward winning is preset. It may be managed based on other conditions such as reaching the upper limit number and reaching the preset upper limit number of payout number or net increase number.

When the advantageous zone AT or the advantageous zone specialized zone ends, the state is controlled again to the advantageous zone CZ, and when the AT is won in the advantageous zone CZ, the advantageous zone AT is controlled again. The advantageous section AT may be controlled when the advantageous section specializing zone ends. On the other hand, if the number of exhausted games reaches the upper limit number of games without winning the AT in the advantageous section CZ, the state is controlled to the advantageous section normal.

In this manner, the state is controlled from the advantageous zone normal to the advantageous zone AT or the advantageous zone specialized zone via the advantageous zone CZ or the advantageous zone bonus, and the state between the advantageous zone CZ and the advantageous zone AT is changed. You will come and go. In the advantageous zone CZ, the total net increase is 0 or negative, and in the advantageous zone AT, the total net increase is 0 or larger than the minus in the advantageous zone CZ. Therefore, the total number of net added sheets is designed to continue to increase when the state changes between the advantageous section CZ and the advantageous section AT. On the other hand, in the advantage section normal, the total number of net increase is 0 or negative, so the number of games staying in the advantage section normal is more than the number of games staying between the advantage section CZ and the advantage section AT. As it gets bigger, the total number of net additions keeps decreasing.

As described above, a normal game stay is about 1G. On the other hand, in the advantageous zone, there are a plurality of states such as the advantageous zone usually, the advantageous zone CZ, the advantageous zone bonus, the advantageous zone AT, and the advantageous zone specialized zone, and when the transition from the normal to the advantageous zone occurs. The advantageous condition that the user will stay first is usually provided with a termination condition such that the upper limit number of times exceeds 1G. Therefore, the game stay in the payout state during the advantageous section exceeds 1G. As described above, the slot machine 1 is designed so that the normal game stay ratio is smaller than the game stay ratio in the payout state during the advantageous section.

Among the payout states in the advantageous section, the stay ratio of the game in the advantage section normal is more than the stay rate of the game in any of the advantage section CZ, the advantage section AT, the advantage section bonus, the advantage section AT, and the advantage section specialized zone. Is also big. In addition, the stay rate of the game in the advantage section normal is higher than the stay rate of the total game in which the advantage section CZ, the advantage section AT, the advantage section bonus, the advantage section AT, and the games in the advantage section specialized zone are summed up. Therefore, most of the advantageous section is consumed by the game in the advantageous section normal.

In addition, at least if the stay rate of the game in the advantage section normal is higher than the stay rate of the game in both the advantage section CZ and the advantage section AT, other stay rates may be set. Further, at least if the stay rate of the game in the advantage section normal is larger than the stay rate of the total game in which the games in the advantage section CZ and the advantage section AT are summed up, other stay rates may be set.

Normally, the advantageous zone CZ, the advantageous zone bonus, the advantageous zone AT, and the advantageous zone specialized zone are subjected to processing such as lottery related to control of the AT. Specifically, normally, the advantageous section transition lottery and point acquisition lottery, which will be described later with reference to FIG. 43, are performed, and the advantageous section normal lottery and point privilege lottery, which will be described later with reference to FIG. 45, are performed. 47 performs the privilege lottery described below in FIG. 47, the advantageous section AT performs the privilege lottery described below in FIG. 48, and the advantageous zone specialized zone performs the privilege lottery described below in FIG. 49. On the other hand, in the advantageous zone ending and BB, such processes as the lottery related to the control of the AT are not performed. Therefore, in the inside or the non-inside, it is more advantageous for the player to lose the BB prize than to win the BB even if the BB prize winning game is played.

In the payout state during the advantageous zone, the state is controlled to the advantageous zone ending when the total number of digested games in the advantageous zone updated based on the progress of the game reaches a predetermined ED transition G number. The ED transition G number is updated only in the advantageous section, and is not updated in normal or BB. The advantageous period ending is, for example, until the total value of the net increase number reaches the upper limit number (for example, 2400), or until the number of exhausted games in the advantageous period reaches the upper limit number (for example, 1500G), the output during the advantageous period. This is a state in which it is determined that control to the ball state will continue. The ED transition G number is set when the state shifts from the normal state to the payout state in the advantageous section. The number of ED transfer G may be determined by lottery or may be predetermined.

When the limiter condition is satisfied in the payout state in the advantageous section or an arbitrary ending condition is satisfied, the state is normally controlled from the payout state in the advantageous section. Specifically, in the payout state during the advantageous section, when the total number of digesting games (the number of advantageous sections G) updated based on the progress of the game reaches a predetermined upper limit G number (for example, 1500G). The advantageous zone ends, and the payout state is normally controlled. The number of advantageous sections G is counted by the advantageous section G number counter stored in the RAM 41c. Alternatively, in the payout state during the advantageous section, the advantageous section ends when the total number of net increase in the advantageous section updated based on the progress of the game reaches a predetermined upper limit number (for example, 2400). , The payout state is normally controlled. It should be noted that the net increase in the advantageous period is counted by the net increase counter stored in the RAM 41c.

When the state is normally controlled from the payout state in the advantageous zone, the total value of the number of digested games and the net additional number counted in the payout state in the advantageous zone, and the points that can be acquired during the game are also initialized. To be done. The number of advantageous sections G and the net number of sheets increased in the advantageous section are updated not only in the advantageous section but also in the BB, and are not updated in the normal section.

As described above, during the BB, the ED transition G number that approaches the control of the advantageous section ending, which is advantageous for the player by being updated, is not updated, but the normal section that is disadvantageous for the player by being updated is updated. The number of advantageous sections G approaching the control of 1 and the net number of sheets added in the advantageous section are updated. Therefore, in the inside or the non-inside, it is more advantageous for the player to lose the BB prize than to win the BB even if the BB prize winning game is played.

Further, as described above, in the BB, the payout rate is lower than that in the advantageous section AT and the advantageous section specialized zone, and the payout rate is about 101%. Therefore, during the BB, there is no increase or decrease in the number of net additions, and the BB is merely a state for the player to consume a predetermined number of games (for example, 60G). On the other hand, during the BB, the number of advantageous sections G and the number of net additions during the advantageous section are updated. Therefore, even if a BB winning possible game is played inside or outside, the BB winning is won. It is more advantageous for the player to miss the BB than to win the BB.

Further, for example, as the arbitrary ending condition, a predetermined ending condition is satisfied without winning the direct hit bonus, the common bonus, or the CZ in the advantageous section normal, and winning the bonus or AT in the advantageous section CZ. It includes that a predetermined termination condition is met without any exception.

When the setting is changed in the payout state in the normal or advantageous section, the state is normally controlled. At this time, the total value of the number of digested games and the number of net additions counted in the payout state in the advantageous section, and the points obtainable during the game are also reset. In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the payout rate of medals changes according to the set value. More specifically, the payout rate of medals can be changed by changing the winning probability in a predetermined lottery such as a point privilege lottery described later according to the set value (for example, 1 to 6). The clerk of the game shop or the like can change this set value by changing the setting. When the setting is changed, no lottery is performed such as determining the initial value of the number of exhausting games until the number of ceiling games is reached.

As described above, the conditions for the state to shift normally from the payout state in the advantageous zone include a limiter condition and an arbitrary ending condition that are established based on the progress of the game, and a condition that the setting is changed.

[Winner]
6 to 9 are diagrams for explaining types of winning combinations, symbol combinations of winning combinations, and awarding at the time of winning. The names of the winning combinations are shown in the name columns of FIG. 6 to FIG. 9, and the symbol combinations in which the winning combinations are winning are shown in the symbol combination columns. Further, in the award column, a value (a medal payout number, a replay award, etc.) given at the time of winning is shown.

As shown in FIG. 6, as the re-game combination, Lip 1 to Lip 6 are provided. As shown in FIG. 7, BB is provided as a special role. As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, as small winning combinations, plums 1 to 6, watermelons, and single winning combinations 1 to 33 are provided. Plums 1 to 6 are protagonists who can win in the push-winning combination, and in winning, nine medals, which is larger than the number of medals used for the number of bets (three), are paid out. The plums 1 to 6 are collectively referred to as a "plum role". The one-role combinations 1 to 33 are sub-roles that can be won at the time of winning the push order combination, and at the time of winning, one medal less than the number of medals used for the number of bets (three coins) is paid out. The one-to-one winning combinations 1 to 33 are collectively referred to as “one-to-one winning combinations”.

As shown in FIG. 8, when the "character-character-black 7" is derived from the reels 2L, 2C, 2R among the symbol combinations in which the winning of the one-piece winning combination 22 occurs, three character symbols are arranged side by side on the reel. Will be placed. Specifically, by deriving the character symbols in each of the lower stage of the left reel 2L, the middle stage of the middle reel 2C, and the upper stage of the right reel 2R, the character symbols are arranged side by side in an upward right direction. In addition, the fact that the character patterns are arranged side by side is also referred to as “character alignment”.

As shown in FIG. 9, when a "character-plum" or a "character-plum-plum" is derived from the reels 2L, 2C, 2R among the symbol combinations in which the winning of the one-piece winning combination 23 occurs, 7 symbols are obtained. Three of them are arranged side by side on the reel. Specifically, 7 symbols are derived in each of the upper stage of the left reel 2L, the upper stage of the middle reel 2C, and the upper stage of the right reel 2R, so that the 7 symbols are arranged side by side in the upper stage. It should be noted that the arrangement of the 7 symbols side by side is also referred to as “7 sets”.

[Combination target]
FIG. 10 is a diagram for explaining combinations of winning combinations that are read out as winning combinations for each gaming state. FIG. 11 is a diagram showing lottery target combinations arranged for each flag category. The winning combination number column of FIG. 10 and FIG. 11 shows the winning combination number determined for each lottery target winning combination, and the flag category column shows the flag category assigned for each type of winning lottery winning combination. The name of the winning combination is shown in the winning combination column, the winning combination is indicated by a circle for each RT condition in the RT status column, and there is an advantageous winning section in the advantageous section winning column. It is shown. The combination of winning combinations in FIG. 10 shows the combinations of winning combinations included in each lottery target winning combination.

As shown in FIG. 10, BB is provided as a winning combination for the special winning combination. As the lottery target combination for the re-game combination, there are provided a normal rep, a 7-match rep, a 7-unmatch rep, a character-match rep, and a character-unmatch rep. As small lottery target combinations, common plums, 123 combinations A to D, 132 combinations A to D, 213 combinations A to D, 231 combinations A to D, 312 combinations A to D, 321 combinations. A to D, watermelon, 7 pieces of 1 and 2 pieces, 1 piece of character piece, weak cherry, strong cherry piece, 7 pieces of middle row cherry piece, middle piece of cherry character set, and chance eyes A and B are provided. As the small wins in the BB, one small win in the BB and one small win in the BB are provided. In addition, 123 combinations A to D, 132 combinations A to D, 213 combinations A to D, 231 combinations A to D, 312 combinations A to D, and 321 combinations A to D are selected at the time of winning. It is a kind of push-and-play role because it is a role in which navigation can be executed. In addition, the one set of seven sheets 1 and 2 will be collectively referred to as “one set of seven sheets”.

In the non-internal, the BB medium and small-sized wins and the ones in the BB can be won, but in the internal, since the winning of the BB has already been carried over, the BB, the BB medium-small-sized win, and the BB in 1 It is impossible to win a piece.

As for the flag category, a flag category that is common to all of the inside, inside, and BB is assigned to each winning combination. Further, while the winning combination number is determined for each lottery target winning combination, the flag category is assigned for each type of lottery target winning combination. Therefore, the number of flag categories is smaller than the number of winning combination numbers. Further, as will be described later in detail, a normal point acquisition lottery, an advantageous section normal point acquisition lottery, an advantageous section CZ privilege lottery, an advantageous section AT privilege lottery, and an advantageous section special zone privilege lottery (hereinafter, these All of them are also collectively referred to as “lottery related to AT control”) based on the flag category. Therefore, the processing load can be reduced as compared with the case where the lottery related to the control of these ATs is performed based on the winning combination number.

In the present embodiment, the flag category is also assigned to loss and BB, and the same FC1 as other roles such as normal lip is assigned to BB. The common plum is assigned the same FC4 as the watermelon.

The number of each combination determination value will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 12 is a diagram for explaining the number of determination values in the internal lottery. A role corresponding to FC2 such as 1 set of 7 or 7 rep, a role corresponding to FC3 such as 1 set of character, a role corresponding to FC4 like watermelon or common plum, FC5 like weak cherry The corresponding winning combination, or the winning combination corresponding to FC6 such as strong cherry, has a lower probability of winning in the internal lottery than the winning combinations corresponding to FC0 and FC1, and is a so-called rare winning combination. In addition, the winning combination corresponding to FC7 like the chances A and B has a lower probability of winning in the internal lottery than any other winning combination including the rare winning combination, and is a so-called super rare winning combination.

For example, as shown in FIG. 12, the number of determination values of watermelon, cherry, or common plum is set smaller than the sum of the number of determination values of all push forward combinations. Further, the number of judgment values of the chance is set smaller than the number of judgment values of any other winning combination. Although not shown in the figure, the probability of winning the internal lottery for the middle-tier cherry 7 set and the middle-tier cherry character set is lower than that of any other combination including the rare combination, and is a so-called super rare combination. It can be said that the general roles corresponding to the role numbers 2, 7 to 31 have a higher probability of winning in the internal lottery than the rare role and the super rare role.

In the non-internal, the number of determination values of BB is set to 15000, which is larger than the number of determination values assigned to any other winning combination. Specifically, in the non-internal, the BB is won with a probability of about 1/4, which is higher than that of winning other winning combinations. That is, in the non-inside, the BB winning game is executed with a high probability of once in four games. However, since the BB determination value number (15000) is set to be smaller than the sum of the determination value numbers of all push forward combinations, there is a higher probability that the BB winning game is executed in the non-internal. Win one of the push-pushers.

On the other hand, in the inside, since the BB winning has been carried over, the judgment value number of 15000 of the BB set in the non-inside is directly set as the judgment value number of the loss. This is larger than the number of determination values assigned to any other winning combination. Specifically, in the inside, you will lose in the internal lottery with a probability of about 1/4, which is higher than when you win another winning combination. That is, inside the game, a BB winning game is executed with a high probability of once in four games. However, since the number of judgment values for loss (15000) is set to be smaller than the sum of the number of judgment values for all push-and-win combinations, there is a higher probability that a BB prize winning game will be played in the non-internal state. Win one of the push-pushers.

[Reel control with push-down role]
FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining the reel control at the time of pushing forward combination winning. As described above, in the present embodiment, the navigation is executed and the player is informed of the correct answer procedure in the advantageous section AT or the game in which the push forward combination is won in the advantageous section bonus. By operating the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R in accordance with the correct answer procedure in accordance with the navigation, the player can win a winning combination (main character) advantageous to the player.

For example, as shown in FIG. 13, 123 combinations A to D, 132 combinations A to D, 213 combinations A to D, 231 combinations A to D, 312 combinations A to D, and 321 combinations A to D. In the game that wins any of D, when the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R is operated in the correct answer procedure, the main role of the plum player is won, while the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R is operated in the incorrect answer procedure. When you play, the one-player role, which is the sub-role, wins. In addition, when the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R is operated in the incorrect answer procedure, if the winning of the one-winning role as the sub-winning is lost, no winning may be generated.

[Reel control of other roles]
FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining reel control when another winning combination is won. As shown in FIG. 14, in the game in which one of 7 pieces is won, when the stop switch 8R, the stop switch 8C, and the stop switch 8L are operated in this order, the one-piece winning combination 23 is won, and depending on the operation timing, 7 A set can be derived. In addition, 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 one of the seven pieces is won, the one-piece winning combination 16 is won when the stop switch is operated other than by reverse pressing. In addition, in the game in which one set of 7 sets is won, when the stop switch 8R, the stop switch 8C, and the stop switch 8L are operated in this order, 7 sets may be derived regardless of the operation timing.

In the game in which one character set is won, when the stop switch is operated by reverse pressing, the one-piece hand 22 is won, and the character set can be derived depending on the operation timing. On the other hand, in the game in which one character set is won, the one-piece winning combination 16 is won when the stop switch is operated other than by reverse pressing. In the game in which one character set is won, the character set may be derived regardless of the operation timing when the stop switch 8R, the stop switch 8C, and the stop switch 8L are operated in this order.

In the game in which the middle tier cherry 7 set is won, regardless of the operation order of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, the one-piece winning combination 23 is won, and 7 sets can be derived depending on the operation timing. In addition, in the game in which the middle cherries 7 set is won, the 7 sets may be derived regardless of the operation timing of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R.

In the game in which the middle-tier cherry character alignment is won, regardless of the operation mode of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R, the single-card combination 22 is won, and the character alignment can be derived depending on the operation timing. In addition, in the game in which the middle tier cherry character match is won, the character match may be derived regardless of the operation timing of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R.

In this way, in the game in which one of the seven sets is won, by operating the stop switch by reversely pressing, as in the game in which the middle cherry set of seven is won, the one-piece hand 23 is won and the operation timing is changed. Can derive 7 sets. On the other hand, in a game in which one of the seven rows has been won, by operating the stop switch other than by reversely pressing, a different winning combination from the game in which the middle row of seven rows has been won will be won.

Also, in the game in which one character is selected, the stop switch is operated by pressing it backwards, so that the one-role combination 22 is won as well as in the game in which the middle cherry character is selected. A set can be derived. On the other hand, in the game in which one character set is won, the stop switch is operated other than by reversely pressing, so that a different winning combination from the game selected in the middle cherry character set is won.

[Example of reel control]
An example of reel control will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 15 is a diagram for explaining an example of reel control in a game in which the middle tier cherry 7 set or the middle tier cherry character set is won. As shown in FIG. 15(a), when the middle cherry 7 set or the middle cherry character set is won, when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, depending on the operation timing, the upper 7 symbols and the middle pattern are displayed. Cherry designs and character designs are derived in the lower row. In this way, in the left reel 2L, the cherry symbol is derived in the middle row, and in the upper and lower rows, such as the 7 symbol and the character symbol, the symbols that stand out as compared to general symbols such as replay symbols and plum symbols. Is derived, the player is urged to operate the stop switch at the timing of deriving the 7 symbols and the character symbols after the second stop operation.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 15B, when the second stop operation is performed on the middle stop switch 8C, the 7 symbols in the upper stage and the character symbols in the middle stage are derived depending on the operation timing. In this way, the 7 symbols and the character symbols are collectively derived on the left reel 2L and the middle reel 2C, so that the player operates the stop switch at the timing of deriving the 7 symbols and the character symbols in the third stop operation. You are prompted to do so.

As shown in FIG. 15C, when the middle cherries 7 are selected, when the third stop operation is performed on the right stop switch 8R, the 7 symbols are drawn to the upper stage depending on the operation timing. In this case, the one-piece winning combination 23 wins, and there are 7 sets in the upper row. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 15D, when the middle tier cherry character match has been won, when the third stop operation is performed on the right stop switch 8R, the hero symbol is derived in the upper tier. In this case, the one-sheet winning combination 22 wins, and the characters are aligned to the right.

FIG. 16 is a diagram for explaining an example of reel control in a game in which 7 pieces of middle cherries, 7 pieces of middle cherry characters, 1 piece of 7 pieces, or 1 piece of character set is won. As shown in FIG. 16(a1), when the middle row cherry 7 row or one row of 7 rows is won, when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, 7 symbols are drawn to the upper row depending on the operation timing. .. Then, as shown in FIG. 16(b1), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, 7 symbols are drawn to the upper stage depending on the operation timing. After that, as shown in FIG. 16(c1), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, depending on the operation timing, 7 symbols are derived in the upper stage and cherry symbols are derived in the middle stage. In this case, the one-piece winning combination 23 wins, and there are 7 sets in the upper row.

As shown in FIG. 16(a2), when the middle cherry character set or one character set is won, when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the character pattern is derived to the upper stage depending on the operation timing. .. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 16(b2), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, the character symbol is led to the middle stage depending on the operation timing. Then, as shown in FIG. 16(c2), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, depending on the operation timing, the character design is derived in the lower stage and the cherry design is derived in the middle stage. In this case, the one-sheet winning combination 22 wins, and the characters are aligned to the right.

As shown in FIG. 16(a3), when 7 pieces of 1 piece or 1 piece of character piece is won, when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, the plum symbol is on the upper stage, the replay symbol is on the middle stage, and While the black 7 symbol is derived in the lower row, the cherry symbol is not derived in the middle row. After that, as shown in FIG. 16(b3), the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, and as shown in FIG. 16(c3), the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R. Then, the symbol combination corresponding to the single winning combination 16 is derived.

In this way, when the middle tier cherry character set or the middle tier cherry 7 set is won, when the left reel 2L first stops, the cherry symbol is derived in the middle stage. On the other hand, in the case of winning one set of seven or one set of characters, when the left reel 2L first stops, the cherry symbols are not derived in the middle row. In addition, in the case of winning the middle-tier cherry character set or the middle-tier cherry 7 set, or one of the seven sets or one character set, when the right reel 2R first stops, the left reel 2L has a cherry pattern in the middle stage. Derive.

FIG. 17 is a diagram for explaining an example of reel control in a game winning the BB, the common plum, or the chance A. As shown in FIG. 17A, when the BB, the common plum, or the chance A is won, when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, black 7 symbols are displayed in the lower row according to the operation timing. Along with the derivation, the plum symbol is derived in the upper row. After that, as shown in FIG. 17B, when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, the plum symbol is drawn to the upper stage regardless of the operation timing.

After that, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, different reel control is performed depending on the winning combination. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 17(c1), when BB is won, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the replay symbol is displayed in the lower row in accordance with the operation timing. Derive. As a result, on the reels 2L, 2C, 2R, the BB missed eyes (plum, plum, cherry on the upper stage) are derived.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 17(c2), when the common plum is won, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the plum symbol is drawn to the upper stage regardless of the operation timing. .. As a result, on the reels 2L, 2C, 2R, the symbol combination corresponding to the plum 1 (plum alignment in the upper row) is derived, and the plum 1 wins.

Further, as shown in FIG. 17(c3), when the chance A is won, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the replay symbol is derived in the upper row regardless of the operation timing. To do. Thereby, in the reels 2L, 2C, 2R, the symbol combination (plum, plum, replay in the upper row) corresponding to the one-card combination 29 is derived, and the one-card combination 29 is won.

Here, in the lottery related to AT control such as the point acquisition lottery described later, it is more advantageous to win the common plum than the BB, and win the opportunity than the BB and the common plum. When is more advantageous. Therefore, when the plum symbols are lined up in the upper row at the time of the second stop operation, the player can be expected to derive the replay symbol in the upper row during the third stop operation. In addition, when the BB missed item is derived by the third stop operation, it is possible to let the player recognize that the BB winning has been carried over.

FIG. 18 is a diagram for explaining an example of reel control in a game in which a watermelon or a chance B is won. As shown in FIG. 18A, when the watermelon or the chance B is won, when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, the watermelon symbol is drawn to the upper stage according to the operation timing. Then, as shown in FIG. 18B, when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, the watermelon symbol is led to the middle stage according to the operation timing.

After that, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, different reel control is performed depending on the winning combination. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 18(c1), when the watermelon is won, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the watermelon symbol is displayed in the lower row according to the operation timing. Derive. As a result, on the reels 2L, 2C, 2R, a symbol combination corresponding to the watermelon (watermelon alignment diagonally to the lower right) is derived, and the watermelon wins.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 18(c2), when the chance B is won, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the replay symbol is derived in the lower row regardless of the operation timing. To do. As a result, in the reels 2L, 2C, 2R, the symbol combination (watermelon, watermelon, replay diagonally to the lower right) corresponding to the one-piece winning combination 26 is derived, and the one-single winning combination 26 wins.

Here, in the lottery related to AT control such as the point acquisition lottery described below, the advantage degree is higher when the chance B is won than the watermelon. Therefore, at the time of the second stop operation, when the watermelon symbols are lined up diagonally to the lower right, it is possible to expect the player to derive the watermelon symbols in the lower stage at the time of the third stop operation.

FIG. 19 is a diagram for explaining an example of reel control in a game in which a weak cherry or a strong cherry is won. As shown in FIG. 19A, when the weak cherry or the strong cherry is won, when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, the cherry symbol is derived in the lower stage according to the operation timing. Then, as shown in FIG. 19B, when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, the cherry symbol is led to the middle stage according to the operation timing.

After that, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, different reel control is performed depending on the winning combination. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 19(c1), when the weak cherry is won, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the plum symbol is displayed in the lower row regardless of the operation timing. Is derived and the one-sheet winning combination 31 is won.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 19(c2), when the strong cherry is won, when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the cherry symbol is derived in the upper row regardless of the operation timing. .. As a result, in the reels 2L, 2C, 2R, a symbol combination peculiar to strong cherries (cherry aligned diagonally to the upper right) is derived, and the one-card combination 31 is won.

Here, in a lottery related to AT control such as a point acquisition lottery, which will be described later, the advantage of winning a strong cherry is higher than that of a weak cherry. Therefore, when the cherry symbols are lined up diagonally to the upper right at the time of the second stop operation, the player can be expected to derive the cherry symbols in the upper row at the time of the third stop operation.

[Winning role suggestion production, privilege suggestion production]
An example of a winning combination suggestion effect and a privilege suggestion effect will be described with reference to FIGS. 20 and 21. FIG. 20 is a diagram for explaining an example of a winning combination suggestion effect and a privilege suggestion effect in a game in which the BB, the common plum, or the chance A is won. FIG. 21 is a diagram for explaining an example of a winning combination suggestion effect and a privilege suggestion effect in a game in which a watermelon, a common plum, or a chance eye A is won. In the example shown in FIG. 20, the respective effects at the time of winning the BB, when the common plum is won, and when the chance A is won will be described. In lottery related to AT control such as privilege lottery, the advantage is higher when the common plum is won than the BB, and when the chance is won than both the BB and the common plum. High degree of advantage.

The winning combination suggesting effect is an effect performed when a specific winning combination is won, and is an effect in which the winning combination is suggested to the player to predict the winning combination. The winning combination suggestion effect is executed in a payout state in an advantageous section other than the advantageous section, such as the advantageous section CZ and the advantageous section AT. In addition, the privilege suggestion effect is an effect of notifying whether or not a privilege advantageous to the player is granted, and finally notifying whether or not the privilege is granted. The privilege suggestion production is executed in a game in which a lottery related to AT control such as a lottery for obtaining points is performed, such as when a rare role is won. In the examples shown in FIGS. 20 and 21, the game during AT is shown, and the presence or absence of the addition of the AT game is notified as a privilege.

As shown in FIG. 20A, when the start operation is performed, an image in the shape of black diamond (black diamond image) is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 at a position corresponding to the left reel 2L. Since the black diamond image is colored in black, the player operates the left stop switch 8L so as to aim at the black pattern by displaying the black diamond image at the position corresponding to the left reel 2L. Be prompted.

Here, as shown in FIG. 2, the black 7 design is entirely colored in black. On the other hand, the white 7 pattern is framed in black, but as a whole, the occupation ratio of white is higher than that of black. Therefore, the black diamond image suggests both the black 7 pattern and the white 7 pattern, but when the black diamond image is displayed, the player tends to aim for the black 7 pattern having a higher black occupation ratio. is there.

Further, as shown in FIG. 20A, when a start operation is performed, a black diamond image is displayed, a sound “pyrone” that is not normally output is output from the speaker 53, and the side lamp 27 is further turned on. Illuminates or flashes in unusual lighting colors. This allows the player to concentrate on the operation of the left stop switch 8L even by the sound output from the speaker 53 and the lighting or blinking of the side lamp 27.

When the winning combination suggesting effect is executed when the start operation is performed, the player operates the stop switch 8L at the timing of drawing out the black 7 symbol on the left reel 2L. As a result, as shown in FIGS. 20(b1) to 20(b3), the black 7 symbol is led to the lower stage of the left reel 2L. After that, as described with reference to FIG. 17, the reel control is performed such that the derived symbol combination is different depending on whether the BB, the common plum, or the chance A is won. Note that, as shown in FIG. 20, among the winning combination suggestive effects, the display of the black diamond image and the sound output from the speaker 53 are performed only during the start operation, but regarding the lighting or blinking of the side lamp 27, the first stop operation is performed. It will continue afterwards. The lighting or blinking of the side lamp 27 continues after the second stop operation is performed, but ends when the third stop operation is performed thereafter.

Further, in the game in which the winning combination suggesting effect is executed, a different privilege suggesting effect is executed depending on the winning combination each time the stop switch is operated. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 20(b1), when BB is won, one star image is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L. Is displayed. Then, as shown in FIG. 20(c1), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, one star image is added. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 20(d1), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, a large star image is displayed and a character image of "addition" is displayed. As a result, the addition of the AT game is notified. In addition, when the AT game is not added, the character image of "..." is displayed in the large star image.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 20B2, when the common plum is won, the treasure chest image is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L. After that, as shown in FIG. 20(c2), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, an animation image in which the treasure box is slightly opened is displayed. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 20(d2), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, an animation image that opens the treasure box is displayed, and "add on" from the treasure box is displayed. The character image of appears. As a result, the addition of the AT game is notified. When the AT game is not added, the character image of "..." appears in the treasure box.

Further, as shown in FIG. 20(b3), when the chance A is won, when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, the liquid crystal display 51 indicates “Chance?”. The displayed circle image is displayed. Then, as shown in FIG. 20(c3), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, a circle image indicating "Chance!?" is displayed. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 20(d3), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, a circle image indicating "addition" is displayed. As a result, the addition of the AT game is notified. In addition, when the AT game is not added, a circle image with "..." is displayed.

In this way, regardless of whether the winning combination of BB, common plum, or chance A is won, the winning suggestion effect is executed in the same manner at the time of the start operation, and then the first stop operation is used as a trigger, depending on the type of winning combination. Different privilege suggestion effects are executed, and the presence or absence of the privilege is notified. As a result, for the player who performs the first stop operation as prompted by the winning combination suggestion effect, the game combination is varied due to the difference between the finally derived symbol combination and the executed winning combination suggestion effect. It is possible to improve the enjoyment of the game.

Next, with reference to FIG. 21, an effect at the time of winning the watermelon will be described as a comparison between the time when the common plum is won and the time when the chance A is won. Both the common plum and the watermelon are assigned to the flag category 4, and the common plum and the watermelon have the same degree of advantage in lottery related to AT control such as privilege lottery. In addition, the advantage is higher when you win the chance than the common plum and watermelon.

As shown in FIG. 21A, when a start operation is performed, a winning combination suggesting effect is executed, a black diamond image is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, and a sound “pyrone” is output from the speaker 53. Further, the side lamp 27 is lit or blinks in a lighting color that is not normally done. Note that, as shown in FIG. 21, among the winning combination suggestive effects, the display of the black diamond image and the sound output from the speaker 53 are performed only during the start operation, but regarding the lighting or blinking of the side lamp 27, the first stop operation is performed. It will continue afterwards. The lighting or blinking of the side lamp 27 continues after the second stop operation is performed, but ends when the third stop operation is performed thereafter.

When the winning combination suggesting effect is executed when the start operation is performed, the player operates the stop switch 8L at the timing of drawing out the black 7 symbol on the left reel 2L. As shown in FIG. 21(b1), when the watermelon is won, when the first stop operation is performed aiming at the black 7 symbol, the replay symbol positioned one above the black 7 symbol is derived to the lower stage. It After that, as described with reference to FIG. 18, the reel control is performed so that the watermelon symbols are drawn out in a diagonally lower right direction in accordance with the operation timing in the second stop operation and the third stop operation.

Further, in the game in which the winning combination suggesting effect is executed, a different privilege suggesting effect is executed depending on the winning combination each time the stop switch is operated. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 21(b1), when the watermelon is won, when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, the liquid crystal display 51 is hit with a gavel. The image is displayed. After that, as shown in FIG. 21(c1), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, an animation image in which the gavel is swung is displayed. Then, as shown in FIG. 20(d1), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, an oval image showing "addition" is displayed from the gavel for striking. As a result, the addition of the AT game is notified. In addition, when the AT game is not added, the character image of "..." is displayed in the small-sized image.

In this way, regardless of whether the watermelon, the common plum, or the chance eye A is won, the winning suggestion effect is executed in the same manner during the start operation, and then the first stop operation is used as a trigger, depending on the type of winning combination. Different privilege suggestion effects are executed, and the presence or absence of the privilege is notified. As a result, for the player who performs the first stop operation as prompted by the winning combination suggestion effect, the game combination is varied due to the difference between the finally derived symbol combination and the executed winning combination suggestion effect. It is possible to improve the enjoyment of the game.

[BB winning games]
(Regular period of advantage)
FIG. 22 is a diagram for explaining an example of a BB winning possible game in the advantage section normal. As shown in FIG. 22, in the advantage zone normal, the background image corresponding to the advantage zone normal is displayed in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and the map regions located at the lower and right ends of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51. At 520, a point map is displayed. The point map is an image of high interest to the player, such as points that are given based on the result of the point acquisition lottery, and will be described later in detail.

As a BB winning game in the advantageous zone normal, a game in which the BB is won in the non-internal and advantageous zone normal, or a game which is lost in the internal lottery in the internal zone and the advantageous zone normal is assumed. As shown in FIG. 45(c) described later, the point acquisition lottery is performed based on FC1 both when the BB is won and when the internal lottery loses. In this example, a bonus suggestion effect is executed in which whether or not points are awarded by the point acquisition lottery is fueled, and finally, whether or not points are awarded is informed.

As shown in FIG. 22A, in the BB winning possible game in the normal advantageous section, when the start operation is performed, the winning combination suggesting effect based on the black diamond image is not executed.

As shown in FIG. 22(b1), when the black 7 symbol is drawn to the lower stage in accordance with the operation timing when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, the removal of BB is determined. At this time, a small image of a bird is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a benefit suggestive effect. After that, as shown in FIG. 22(c1), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, the bird image is displayed in a large size and the character image of “?” is attached.

After that, when points are awarded, as shown in FIG. 22(d1), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, “10p” indicating that 10p is awarded. The character image is displayed in addition to the bird image. On the other hand, in the case where points are not awarded, as shown in FIG. 22(d2), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, "..." indicating that no privilege is awarded is displayed. The character image is displayed in addition to the bird image.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 22(b2), when the white 7 symbol is drawn to the lower stage according to the operation timing when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, one of the winning symbols of BB The department is displayed. At this time, the image of the bird is displayed small on the liquid crystal display 51 as a privilege suggesting effect, as in the case where the BB is missed. Then, as shown in FIG. 22(c2), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, the cherry symbol corresponding to the winning symbol combination of BB is derived in the middle row in accordance with the operation timing. , The image of the bird is displayed in large size and the character image of "?" is added.

Then, as shown in FIG. 22(d3), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the BAR symbol corresponding to the winning symbol combination of BB is derived to the lower stage in accordance with the operation timing. Then, a BB prize is generated. When a BB prize is generated, the award of the privilege is canceled even if the award of the point is determined by the point acquisition lottery. In this case, when the third stop operation is performed, an image regarding the BB (for example, a background image in the BB or a title notification image of the BB) is displayed.

Here, in the advantageous section normal, the background image and the image of the point map are displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, but when the BB is won, these images are invisible to the player, Images related to BB are displayed so as to overlap the front side of these images.

As described above, in the BB winning possible game in the advantage section normal, points can be given at the timing when the third stopping operation is performed when the BB winning is not made, whereas the third stopping operation is performed when the BB winning is made. No points are awarded at the timing of the action. Further, when a BB prize is won, an image regarding the BB is displayed at the same timing as when the third stop operation is performed, which is the same as when the point suggestion is given by the privilege suggestion effect. The notification image of whether or not points are given or the image regarding BB may be displayed not only at the timing when the third stop operation is performed but also at the timing thereafter.

(At advantageous zone CZ)
FIG. 23 is a diagram for explaining an example of a BB winning game in the advantageous zone CZ. As shown in FIG. 23, in the advantageous zone CZ, a background image corresponding to the advantageous zone CZ is displayed at the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and an image showing the number of games remaining in the advantageous zone CZ (in this example, “ An image showing "remaining 15G") and an image showing the degree of advantage of the lottery table (image showing "strong" in this example) are displayed.

As a BB winning possible game in the advantageous zone CZ, a game in which the BB is won in the non-internal and advantageous zone CZ, or a game which is lost due to an internal lottery in the internal and advantageous zone CZ is assumed. As shown in FIG. 47 described later, the privilege lottery is performed based on FC1 both when the BB is won and when the internal lottery loses. In this example, a bonus lottery is used to encourage presence/absence of promotion in the lottery table, and finally, a bonus suggestion effect is provided to notify the presence/absence of promotion in the lottery table. Note that the example shown in FIG. 23 is not limited to the presence/absence of promotion in the lottery table, and may be applied to a privilege suggestion effect that fuels the presence/absence of AT winning and finally notifies the presence/absence of AT winning.

As shown in FIG. 23(a), in the BB winning possible game in the advantageous zone CZ, when the start operation is performed, the winning combination suggesting effect based on the black diamond image is executed. Further, as the winning combination suggesting effect, the speaker 53 outputs a sound of "pyrone", and the side lamp 27 is lit or blinks in a lighting color which is not normally used.

As shown in FIG. 23(b1), when the black 7 symbol is drawn to the lower stage according to the operation timing when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, the dropout of BB is determined. At this time, the image of a whale is displayed in a small size on the liquid crystal display 51 as a benefit suggestive effect. Then, as shown in FIG. 23(c1), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, the image of the whale is displayed in a large size and the character image of "?" is attached. The display of the black diamond image and the sound output from the speaker 53 are ended by the first stop operation, but the winning suggestion effect by lighting or blinking the side lamp 27 is continued even after the second stop operation.

After that, in the case of promoting to the strong table, as shown in FIG. 23(d1), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, “strong” indicating to be promoted to the strong table is displayed. The character image is displayed by being attached to the image of the whale. On the other hand, if the player has not been promoted to the strong table and has not won the AT, as shown in FIG. 23(d2), no benefit is given when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R. A character image of "..." indicating that is attached to the image of the whale and displayed. In addition, the winning suggestion effect by lighting or blinking the side lamp 27 ends when the third stop operation is performed.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 23(b2), when the white 7 symbol is derived in the lower stage according to the operation timing when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, one of the winning symbols of BB is obtained. The department is displayed. At this time, as in the case of missing the BB, the image of the whale is displayed small on the liquid crystal display 51 as a privilege suggesting effect. After that, as shown in FIG. 23(c2), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, the cherry symbol corresponding to the winning symbol combination of BB is derived in the middle row according to the operation timing. , The whale image is displayed in large size and the character image of "?" is added. The display of the black diamond image and the sound output from the speaker 53 are ended by the first stop operation, but the winning suggestion effect by lighting or blinking the side lamp 27 is continued even after the second stop operation.

Then, as shown in FIG. 23(d3), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the BAR symbol corresponding to the winning symbol combination of BB is derived to the lower stage in accordance with the operation timing. Then, a BB prize is generated. When a BB prize is generated, even if the promotion of the lottery table or the AT win is determined by the privilege lottery, the grant of the privilege is canceled. In this case, when the third stop operation is performed, an image regarding the BB (for example, a background image in the BB or a title notification image of the BB) is displayed. The image regarding BB in the advantageous zone CZ is the same as the image regarding BB in the advantageous zone normal. Also, the winning suggestion suggestion effect by turning on or blinking the side lamp 27 ends when the third stop operation is performed.

Here, in the advantageous zone CZ, a background image, an image showing the number of remaining games in the advantageous zone CZ, and an image showing the degree of advantage of the lottery table are displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, but when the BB is won. , The images relating to BB are displayed so as to be superimposed on the front side of these images in such a manner that the player cannot visually recognize these images.

As described above, in the BB winning game in the advantageous zone CZ, when the BB is not won, the table promotion or AT can be given at the timing when the third stop operation is performed, whereas when the BB is won, the 3 Promotion of the table and AT are not given at the timing when the stop operation is performed. Further, when the BB is won, the image regarding the BB is displayed at the same timing as the third stop operation, which is the same as when the promotion of the table or the presence/absence of the AT is notified by the privilege suggestion effect. It should be noted that the notification image of the table promotion or the AT presence/absence or the image regarding the BB may be displayed not only at the timing when the third stop operation is performed but also at a timing thereafter.

(At advantageous section AT)
FIG. 24 is a diagram for explaining an example of a BB winning game in the advantageous section AT. As shown in FIG. 24, in the advantageous section AT, a background image corresponding to the advantageous section AT is displayed at the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and an image showing the number of games remaining in the advantageous section AT (in this example, “ An image showing "remaining 45 G") and an image showing the number of acquired images (image of "30 GET" in this example) are displayed.

As a BB winning game in the advantageous section AT, a game in which a BB is won in the non-internal and advantageous section AT, or a game in which the internal lottery is lost in the internal and advantageous section AT is assumed. As shown in FIG. 48 described later, the bonus lottery is performed based on FC1 both when the BB is won and when the internal lottery loses. In this example, the privilege lottery is used to support the presence/absence of the addition of the AT game number, and finally, the privilege suggestion effect of notifying the presence/absence of the addition of the AT game number is executed. Note that the example shown in FIG. 24 is not limited to whether or not the number of AT games is added, but may be applied to a benefit suggestion effect that stimulates the presence or absence of the special zone win and finally notifies the presence or absence of the special zone win. Good.

As shown in FIG. 24A, in the BB winning possible game in the advantageous section AT, when the start operation is performed, the winning suggestion effect based on the black diamond image is executed. Further, as the winning combination suggesting effect, the speaker 53 outputs a sound of "pyrone", and the side lamp 27 is lit or blinks in a lighting color which is not normally used.

As shown in FIG. 24(b1), when the black 7 symbol is drawn to the lower stage according to the operation timing when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, the removal of BB is determined. At this time, one star image is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a benefit suggestive effect. Then, as shown in FIG. 24(c1), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, one star image is added. The display of the black diamond image and the sound output from the speaker 53 are ended by the first stop operation, but the winning suggestion effect by lighting or blinking the side lamp 27 is continued even after the second stop operation.

Thereafter, when the AT game is added, as shown in FIG. 24(d1), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the "addition" indicating that the AT game is added is displayed. A large star image with a text image is displayed. On the other hand, when neither the addition of the AT game nor the special zone winning is performed, as shown in FIG. 24(d2), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, no privilege is given. A large star image with a character image of "..." indicating that it is not displayed is displayed. In addition, the winning suggestion effect by lighting or blinking the side lamp 27 ends when the third stop operation is performed.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 24(b2), when the white 7 symbol is derived in the lower stage according to the operation timing when the first stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8L, one of the winning symbols of the BB The department is displayed. At this time, one star image is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a privilege suggesting effect, as in the case of missing the BB. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 24(c2), when the second stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8C, the cherry symbol corresponding to the winning symbol combination of BB is derived in the middle row in accordance with the operation timing. , A star image is added. The display of the black diamond image and the sound output from the speaker 53 are ended by the first stop operation, but the winning suggestion effect by lighting or blinking the side lamp 27 is continued even after the second stop operation.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 24(d3), when the third stop operation is performed on the stop switch 8R, the BAR symbol corresponding to the winning symbol combination of BB is derived to the lower stage according to the operation timing. Then, a BB prize is generated. When a BB prize occurs, even if the addition of the AT game or the special zone win is determined by the privilege lottery, the grant of the privilege is canceled. In this case, when the third stop operation is performed, an image regarding the BB (for example, a background image in the BB or a title notification image of the BB) is displayed. The image regarding BB in the advantageous zone AT is the same as the image regarding BB in the advantageous zone normal or the advantageous zone CZ. Also, the winning suggestion suggestion effect by turning on or blinking the side lamp 27 ends when the third stop operation is performed.

Here, in the advantageous section AT, a background image, an image showing the number of games remaining in the advantageous section AT, and an image showing the number of obtained games are displayed on the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, but when the BB is won, these images are displayed. The images relating to the BB are displayed so as to be superposed on the front side of these images in a manner that the player cannot visually recognize the images.

As described above, in the BB winning game in the advantageous section AT, when the BB winning is not made, the addition of the AT game and the special zone can be given at the timing when the third stop operation is performed, while the BB winning is made. When this is done, the addition of the AT game and the specialized zone are not added at the timing when the third stop operation is performed. Further, when the BB is won, the image regarding the BB is displayed at the same timing as the third stop operation, which is the same as when the addition of the AT game or the presence/absence of the special zone is notified by the privilege suggestion effect. It should be noted that the notification image indicating whether or not the AT game is added or the special zone is added or the image regarding BB may be displayed not only at the timing when the third stop operation is performed but also at a timing thereafter.

[Point map]
An example of the point map used in the advantageous section normal will be described with reference to FIGS. 25 and 26. The state in the effect using the point map includes the normal mode and the acceleration mode.

(In normal mode)
FIG. 25 is a diagram for explaining an example of the point map in the normal mode. As shown in FIG. 25(a), the display area of the liquid crystal display 51 includes an effect area 510 in which an effect image regarding a game such as a background image is displayed, and a map area 520 in which a point map is displayed. .. The effect area 510 is a display area located near the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 and occupying most of the display area. The map area 520 is a display area that is located at the upper end of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 (lower and right ends of the screen in the present embodiment) and is smaller than the effect area 510.

In the point map of the map area 520, an update image 520a that displays the updated value of the points accumulated based on the game, and arrival icon images 520c, 520d, 520e that decorate the arrival point that is the target of the accumulated points, A final icon image 520f that decorates the final point and a moving image 520b including a character (hereinafter, also referred to as a “moving character”) that moves toward the reaching point corresponding to the accumulated points are integrally displayed. .. In the present embodiment, a plurality of points such as 100p, 300p, and 600p are set as reaching points, and 1000p is set as the final point. Since the reaching point is not displayed in the updated image 520a, the player will pay attention to the reaching point decorated with the reaching icon image as well as the updated value in the updated image 520a.

As the shape of the arrival icon image, three types of shapes such as a triangle, a circle, and a double circle are prepared. The circular arrival icon image has a higher degree of advantage than the triangular arrival icon image, and the double circle arrival icon image has a higher degree of advantage than either the round or triangular arrival icon image.

In the advantageous section normal, when points are given by the point acquisition lottery of FIG. 45C described later, the updated value is updated by the given points, and the number corresponding to the updated point is updated image 520a. Reflected in. Furthermore, the moving character moves to a position corresponding to the updated value, thereby approaching a target reaching point. While the moving character is moving, the number of the reaching point and the reaching icon are always displayed. Therefore, the player is required to reach the reaching point by the distance between the moving character and the target position of the moving character. Easy to recognize the number. When the moving character reaches the reaching point, a point privilege lottery of FIG. 45(b) described later is performed, and a CZ win or an AT win can be given based on the lottery. In the point privilege lottery, lottery is performed according to the degree of advantage of the reaching icon image described above.

As shown in FIG. 25B, when the current update value is 50p, the moving character has stopped at the position of 50p on the map 520m. As shown in FIG. 25C, when 10p is added thereafter, the updated value is updated to 60p, and the moving character moves to the position of 60p on the map 520m. After that, as shown in FIG. 25D, when 50p is further added, the updated value is updated to 110p, and the moving character moves on the map 520m to the position of 110p. In this case, since the moving character has reached the position of 100p, the point privilege lottery is performed.

(In acceleration mode)
FIG. 26 is a diagram for explaining an example of the point map in the acceleration mode. The modes related to the update of the updated value in the point map include the normal mode shown in FIG. 25 and the acceleration mode in which the updated amount (in other words, the moved amount of the moving character) is larger than the normal mode. As shown in FIG. 25, in the normal mode, the moving character moves while walking, but in the acceleration mode, the moving character moves while running. Further, the character "in acceleration" is displayed below the update image 520a. This allows the player to proceed with the game while recognizing whether the current mode is the normal mode or the acceleration mode.

As shown in FIG. 26B, when the current update value is 50p, the moving character has stopped at the position of 50p on the map 520m.

About twice as many points are awarded in the acceleration mode as in the normal mode. For example, in the point acquisition lottery, if the same lottery condition is satisfied, the normal mode and the acceleration mode are drawn with the same lottery probability, but the points given at that time are twice as much in the acceleration mode as in the normal mode. Points will be awarded. Furthermore, in the normal mode, the minimum updated point is 1p, but in the acceleration mode, the minimum updated point is 10p.

As shown in FIG. 26(c), in the acceleration mode, even if the point acquisition lottery is performed under the same lottery conditions and the same lottery probability as in the normal mode, 10p is given in the normal mode. On the other hand, in the acceleration mode, double 20p is added. In this case, the updated value is updated to 70p, and the moving character moves on the map 520m to the position of 70p. As shown in FIG. 26D, when 100p (twice of 50p) is further added thereafter, the updated value is updated to 170p and the moving character moves to the position of 170p on the map 520m. In this case, since the moving character has reached the position of 100p, the point privilege lottery is performed.

[Move point map]
FIG. 27 is a diagram for explaining an example of moving the point map. In the point map, the moving character moves on the map 520m at 10p intervals.

For example, as shown in FIG. 27A, when the current update value is 50p, the moving character has stopped at the position of 50p on the map 520m. As shown in FIG. 27B, when 1p is added thereafter, the update value in the update image 520a is updated to 51p, while the moving character remains stopped at the position of 50p on the map 520m. .. As shown in FIG. 27C, when 10p is added thereafter, the updated value in the updated image 520a is updated to 61p, and the moving character moves to the position of 60p on the map 520m.

Thus, the update in the update image 520a is updated at 1p intervals, while the movement of the moving character on the map 520m is updated at 10p intervals.

[Direction of point update]
FIG. 28 is a diagram for explaining an example of an effect of updating points.

First, an example of the effect of point update in the normal mode will be described. As shown in FIG. 28(a1), when the point is notified in the advantage section normal in the normal mode, the character image (“10p” in this example) indicating that the point is added to the liquid crystal display 51. Is attached to the image of the bird and displayed.

After that, as shown in FIG. 28(b1), only the character image indicating the point is closed up and displayed large in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51. As shown in FIG. 28(c1), thereafter, an effect is produced in which the character image indicating the point is reduced toward the update image 520a with an effect. As shown in FIG. 28(d1), after that, the update value in the update image 520a is updated, and the points for the update are displayed small near the update image 520a (above the update image 520a in this example).

Next, an example of the effect of updating the points in the acceleration mode will be described. As shown in FIG. 28(a2), when the point is notified during the advantageous section normal in the acceleration mode, the character image indicating that the point is added to the liquid crystal display 51 (“20p” in this example) Is attached to the image of the bird and displayed.

After that, as shown in FIG. 28(b2), only the character image indicating the point is enlarged and displayed in a large size in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51. As shown in FIG. 28(c2), thereafter, an effect is produced in which the character image indicating the point is reduced toward the update image 520a with an effect. At this time, the effect 511e is decorated on the character image indicating the point displayed in the center of the screen, so that a more flashy update effect than in the normal mode is performed. As shown in FIG. 28(d2), thereafter, the update value in the update image 520a is updated, and the points for the update are displayed small near the update image 520a (above the update image 520a in this example).

As described above, in the acceleration mode, the update value is updated with the effect 511e that is more flashy than in the normal mode. Here, in the acceleration mode, as in the normal mode, the background image corresponding to the advantageous section normal is displayed in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and the effect contents are common to both. Since such a background image is displayed for most of the period in which the player is playing the game, depending on the background image, the player cannot recognize whether the mode is the normal mode or the acceleration mode. Since the update mode of the update value is different between the normal mode and the acceleration mode, the player can recognize which of the normal mode and the acceleration mode is the effect at the time of the update. Further, in the acceleration mode, an effect image that is advantageous to the player is displayed in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51 as compared with the normal mode. For example, in the acceleration mode, an effect image is displayed to notify that an effect not performed in the normal mode is executed and high points are added. It should be noted that in the acceleration mode, an effect image notifying that high points will be added may be displayed with a higher probability than in the normal mode, and such an effect image may be used to add high points. It may be suggested to the player.

[Direction of point update on arrival]
Next, description will be made on the effect when the reaching point is reached by updating the points. FIG. 29 is a diagram for explaining an example of an effect of updating points when reaching.

As shown in FIG. 29A, it is assumed that the update value is 80p in the advantage section normal in the normal mode. In this case, when 50p is notified, a character image (“50p” in this example) indicating that points are to be added is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 along with the bird image.

As shown in FIG. 29( b ), thereafter, only the character image indicating the point is closed up and displayed large in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51. As shown in FIG. 29C, thereafter, an effect is produced in which the character image indicating the point is reduced toward the update image 520a with an effect. After that, as shown in FIG. 29D, the points for the update are displayed small near the update image 520a (above the update image 520a in this example), and the update value in the update image 520a is turned on or blinks. For example, the updated value before updating is highlighted. At this time, the moving character starts moving toward the reaching point of 100p.

As shown in FIG. 29E, thereafter, the updated value is updated while the updated value in the updated image 520a is highlighted, and the reaching point 100p is shown first. The moving character continues to move toward the reaching point of 100p. After that, as shown in FIG. 29(f), the updated value that has reached 100p increases, and the moving character continues to move toward the reaching point of 100p. After that, as shown in FIG. 29(g), the updated value of 100p further increases, and the moving character continues to move toward the reaching point of 100p and finally reaches the reaching point of 100p.

After that, as shown in FIG. 29(h), the updated value in the updated image 520a indicates the updated value 130p, the original size is restored, and the highlighted display is not displayed. The moving character exceeds the reaching point of 100p and stops at a position corresponding to 130p.

In this way, when the moving character reaches the reaching point, the reaching point is highlighted by the updated value in the update image 520a, and thereafter, the updated value exceeding the reaching point is displayed.

[Premonition production on arrival]
Next, the precursor effect executed after reaching the reaching point will be described. 30 and 31 are diagrams for explaining an example of the omen effect when reaching.

As shown in FIG. 30A, in the nth game, it is assumed that 100p has been reached by adding 50p to give an updated value of 130p. In this case, as shown in FIG. 30B, a star image 520g is attached to the reaching icon image 520c corresponding to the reaching point (100p) in the (n+1)th game. The star image 520g is integrally displayed on the point map displayed in the map area 520, like the moving image 520b which is the moving character. Further, the title of the precursor effect such as “castle search mission...” is displayed in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and the precursor effect is started. As a result, the star image 520g attached to the arrival icon image 520c suggests that the omen effect has started by reaching 100p.

As shown in FIG. 30C, in the (n+2)th game, an image showing that the character is searching for a castle is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a precursor effect. As shown in FIG. 30D, in the (n+3)th game, while the precursor effect continues, 10p is added and the updated value becomes 140p.

As shown in FIG. 30E, it is assumed that in the n+4th game, the acceleration value is controlled and 200p is added to give an updated value of 340p, which reaches 300p. That is, it means that the player has reached the next reaching point, which is 300p, during the execution of the precursor effect by reaching 100p.

In this case, as shown in FIG. 30(f), in the n+5th game, the aura effect due to the arrival of 300p is not executed, and the aura effect due to the arrival of 100p continues.

As shown in FIG. 30(g), in the n+6th game, when it is notified that the privilege has not been granted due to a mission failure as a result of the precursor effect due to the arrival of 100p, then as shown in FIG. 30(h). In the n+7th game, a cross image 520h is attached to the reaching icon image 520c corresponding to 100p, and the original effect image is displayed again in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51. Accordingly, the cross image 520h attached to the arrival icon image 520c suggests that the precursor effect due to the arrival of 100p has been completed and that the privilege has not been given.

As shown in FIG. 31(i), in the (n+8)th game, 100p is added to give an updated value of 440p. Further, a star image 520g is attached to the reaching icon image 520d corresponding to the reaching point (300p). Further, the title of the precursor effect such as “castle search mission...” is displayed in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and the precursor effect is started. As a result, the star image 520g attached to the arrival icon image 520d suggests that the omen effect is started when the number reaches 300p.

As shown in FIG. 31(j), in the (n+9)th game, an image showing that the character is searching for a castle is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a precursor effect. Note that 200p is further added to give an updated value of 640p, which reaches 600p. That is, it means that the player has reached the next reaching point, which is 600p, while the precursor effect by the arrival of 300p is being executed.

As shown in FIG. 31(k), in the (n+10)th game, the precursor effect due to the arrival of 300p continues to be executed. As shown in FIG. 31(l), the execution of the precursor effect due to the arrival of 300p continues even in the n+11th game. As shown in FIG. 31(m), in the (n+12)th game, 20p is added to give an updated value of 660p. The precursor effect due to the arrival of 300p continues.

As shown in FIG. 31(n), in the (n+13)th game, as a result of the precursor effect due to the arrival of 300p, it is informed that the privilege (control to the advantageous zone CZ) has been granted due to the mission success. As shown in FIG. 31(o), thereafter, in the (n+14)th game, the player enters the advantageous section CZ, and as shown in FIG. 31(p), the game is played in the advantageous section CZ.

In this way, when the moving character reaches the reaching point, the reaching image is attached with the star image 520g and the indication effect is executed. Therefore, even when the moving character is moving toward the next reaching point. It is possible to make the player easily recognize which reaching point the sign effect currently being executed has reached.

Further, since the cross image 520h is attached to the reaching point at which the precursor effect is completed, it is possible to make the player easily recognize which reaching point the precursor effect is completed.

Further, another example of the omen effect upon arrival will be described with reference to FIG. 32. FIG. 32 is a diagram for explaining another example of the omen effect when reaching.

As shown in FIG. 32A, in the nth game, it is assumed that 100p has been reached by adding 50p and making the updated value 130p. Next, as shown in FIG. 32B, the acceleration mode is controlled in the (n+1)th game. As shown in FIG. 32C, thereafter, in the (n+2)th game, 200p is added to give an updated value of 330p. That is, the player has reached the next reaching point, 300p, before the precursor effect by the arrival of 100p is executed.

In this case, as shown in FIG. 32D, a star image 520g is attached to the reaching icon image 520c corresponding to the reaching point (100p) in the (n+3)th game. Further, the title of the precursor effect such as “castle search mission...” is displayed in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and the precursor effect is started. As a result, the star image 520g attached to the arrival icon image 520c suggests that the omen effect has started by reaching 100p.

As shown in FIG. 32(e), in the (n+4)th game, an image showing that the character is searching for a castle is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51 as a precursor effect. As shown in FIG. 32(f), the indication effect continues in the (n+5)th game.

As shown in FIG. 32(g), in the n+6th game, when it is informed that the privilege has not been granted due to a mission failure as a result of the omen effect due to the arrival of 100p, then as shown in FIG. 32(h). In the n+7th game, a cross image 520h is attached to the reaching icon image 520c corresponding to 100p, and the original effect image is displayed again in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51. Accordingly, the cross image 520h attached to the arrival icon image 520c suggests that the precursor effect due to the arrival of 100p has been completed and that the privilege has not been given.

In this way, after the moving character reaches the reaching point, it may reach the next reaching point before the precursor effect by the arrival of the reaching point starts, but in this case, the reaching reached first. A star image 520g is attached to the point, and a precursor effect is executed. Accordingly, even when the moving character has reached a plurality of reaching points, it is possible to make it easier for the player to recognize which reaching point the sign effect currently being executed is. it can.

[Demonstration when the arrival icon image is displayed]
Next, an effect when displaying the reaching icon image on the point map will be described. 33 and 34 are diagrams for explaining an example of an effect when the reaching icon image is displayed.

When the advantageous section ends in the nth game as shown in FIG. 33(a), the game in the normal section starts in the (n+1)th game as shown in FIG. 33(b). In this example, the advantageous section is not won in the (n+1)th game. At this time, the reel image is displayed in the central areas 510L, 510C, and 510R of the liquid crystal display 51, and the point map is displayed in the map area 520 at the lower and right ends of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51. However, at this point, "--" is displayed on the updated image 520a, and the updated value is not yet displayed. Furthermore, the reaching icon image is not attached to each reaching point.

As shown in FIG. 33C, in the same n+1th game, the images of “x” are respectively displayed in the areas 510L, 510C, and 510R in accordance with the final symbol combination being derived on the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R. Is displayed. As a result, it is possible to let the player recognize that the advantageous section has not been controlled.

As shown in FIG. 33D, it is assumed that the advantageous section is won in the (n+2)th game. In this case, images are also displayed in the areas 510L, 510C, and 510R according to the stop (stop operation) of the reels.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 33(e), when the stop switch 8L is stopped to stop the left reel 2L, an image (in this case, a triangular image) is displayed in the area 510L. Then, as shown in FIG. 33(f), the effect 510e is generated from the triangular image in the area 510L. Then, as shown in FIG. 34(g), when the effect 510e from the triangular image in the area 510L reaches 100p which is a part of the reaching point, the reaching icon image having a triangular shape with respect to 100p is generated. Is displayed. At this time, when the stop switch 8C is operated to stop the middle reel 2C, an image (in this case, a triangular image) is also displayed in the area 510C.

Then, as shown in FIG. 34(h), the effect 510e is generated from the triangular image in the area 510C. Then, as shown in FIG. 34(i), when the effect 510e from the triangular image in the area 510C reaches 300p which is a part of the reaching point, the reaching icon image having a triangular shape with respect to 300p is generated. Is displayed. At this time, when the stop switch 8R is stopped to stop the right reel 2R, an image (circular image in this case) is also displayed in the area 510R.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 34(j), the effect 510e is generated from the circular image in the region 510R. Then, as shown in FIG. 34(k), when the effect 510e from the circular image in the area 510R reaches 600p which is a part of the reaching point, the reaching icon image having a circular shape with respect to 600p is generated. Is displayed. Then, finally, as shown in FIG. 34(l), the reaching icon image is displayed at each reaching point.

In this way, when the transition from the normal section to the advantageous section is performed, an effect in which each image greatly illustrated in each of the regions 510L, 510C, and 510R is connected to each reaching point with the effect 510e, and An arrival icon image is displayed at each arrival point. Further, each image in each of the areas 510L, 510C, 510R is sequentially displayed according to the stop operation of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R or the stop switch 8L, 8C, 8R. Further, after the image is displayed in the area 510L, the arrival icon image corresponding to the image is displayed at the arrival point 100p, and the image is displayed at the arrival point 300p after the image is displayed in the area 510C. The period in which the corresponding arrival icon image is displayed is the same as the period in which the image is displayed in region 510R and the arrival icon image corresponding to the image is displayed at 600p which is the arrival point.

[Direction when the icon changes]
Next, an effect when the reaching icon image on the point map changes will be described. FIG. 35 is a diagram for explaining an example of the effect when the icon changes.

In the present embodiment, when the moving character reaches the reaching point, the reaching icon image may change for the reaching point that arrives after that. For example, as shown in FIG. 35A, it is assumed that the updated value is 50p and 50p is added. In this case, the moving character reaches 100p, as shown in FIG.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 35(c), the effect 513e is generated for 300p and 600p, thereby suggesting to the player that the reaching icon image changes.

After that, as shown in FIG. 35D, the arrival icon image corresponding to 300p maintains a triangular image, but the arrival icon image corresponding to 600p changes to a double circle image. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 35(e), the arrival icon image corresponding to 300p changes into a circle image, and the arrival icon image corresponding to 600p changes into a double circle image.

In this way, when the reaching point is reached, the reaching icon image corresponding to the reaching point that arrives after the reaching point changes with the effect 513e. Further, after the change, the arrival icon image changes to an image with a high degree of advantage. As a result, it is possible to make a player who has reached a certain reaching point feel that he/she should continue playing the game thereafter. In addition, only one of the plurality of reaching points may change or both of the reaching points may change. Therefore, the player may determine which of the reaching icon images generated by the effect 513e changes. Can be noticed. In addition, when the reaching point is reached, the effect that the reaching icon image of the other reaching point is changed to the image with a high degree of advantage as described above, the grant of the privilege is not determined when the reaching point is reached. It may be executed on the condition that it is performed, or may be executed regardless of whether or not the grant of the privilege is determined when the reaching point is reached. Further, whether or not to grant the privilege may be already determined before reaching the reaching point, and when the reaching point is reached as in the present embodiment, whether to grant the privilege is determined by lottery. May be.

[Direction when changing settings]
Next, the effect when the advantageous section is shifted to the normal section will be described while comparing the case of shifting by setting change and the case of shifting as the game progresses. FIG. 36 is a diagram for explaining an example of an effect when the setting is changed.

First, a case where the advantageous section is changed to the normal section by changing the setting will be described. As shown in FIG. 36(a1), it is assumed that the vehicle is controlled to the advantageous section (in this example, the advantageous section AT). After that, when changing to the normal section by changing the setting, as shown in FIG. 36(b1), the effect image similar to that in the advantageous section normal is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. However, the point map as shown in FIG. 25 is not displayed, and “??????” is displayed in the updated image 520a so that the updated value is not recognized.

Note that the state shown in FIG. 36(b1) is a normal section even when the same effect image as that of the advantageous section normal is displayed, and the advantageous section transition lottery is executed. Even after winning the advantageous section by the advantageous section transition lottery, the point map is not displayed as shown in FIG. 36(b1), and the ceiling reaches 1000p so that the updated value is not recognized in the updated image 520a. “???” remains displayed until.

Next, a case where the advantageous section shifts to the normal section as the game progresses will be described. As shown in FIG. 36(a2), it is assumed that the advantageous section ends. After that, as also shown in FIG. 33, the point map is displayed in the map area 520 at the lower and right ends of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and the effect of determining the reaching icon image is executed.

Since the state shown in FIG. 36(b2) is a normal section, the advantageous section transition lottery is executed, and after winning the advantageous section by the advantageous section transition lottery, the point map as shown in FIG. 25 is used. The effect is done.

[Direction when power is cut off]
Next, the effect at the time of power interruption will be described while comparing the case where the slot machine 1 is cut off during the normal section and the case where the slot machine 1 is cut off during the advantageous section.

FIG. 37 is a diagram for explaining an example of an effect when electricity is cut off during a normal section. First, a case where the power is cut off before a specific time (4:00 am in this example) in the normal section and then the power is restored after the specific time (4:00 am in this example) will be described. As shown in FIG. 37(a1), when the power is restored from the power cut over 4:00 am without changing the setting in the normal section (for example, in the case of power cut due to closing of the store), it is shown in FIG. 37(b1). In this way, the effect image similar to that of the advantageous section normal is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. However, the point map as shown in FIG. 25 is not displayed, and “??????” is displayed in the updated image 520a so that the updated value is not recognized.

The state shown in FIG. 37(b1) is a normal section even when the same effect image as that of the advantageous section normal is displayed, and the advantageous section transition lottery is executed. Even after winning the advantageous section by the advantageous section transition lottery, the point map is not displayed as shown in FIG. 37(b1), and the ceiling reaches 1000p so that the updated value is not recognized in the updated image 520a. “???” remains displayed until.

Next, a case where the power is cut off before a specific time (4:00 am in this example) during the normal section and then the power is restored before the specific time (4:00 am in this example) will be described. As shown in FIG. 37(a2), when the power is restored from the power interruption without changing the setting in the normal section and without crossing 4:00 am (for example, in the case of a momentary interruption during business hours), As shown in (b2), the same screen as before the power interruption is displayed.

Since the state shown in FIG. 37(b2) is the normal section, the advantageous section transition lottery is executed, and after the advantageous section transition lottery is won, the point map as shown in FIG. 25 is used. The effect is done.

FIG. 38 is a diagram for explaining an example of an effect when electricity is cut off during the advantageous section. First, in the case where the power is cut off before a specific time (4 AM in this example) during the advantageous section (usually the advantageous section in this example), and then the power is restored after the specific time (4 AM in this example). explain. As shown in FIG. 38(a1), when the power is restored from the power interruption over 4 am without any setting change in the advantageous section (for example, in case of power interruption due to closing of the store), it is shown in FIG. 38(b1). As described above, the effect image before the power failure is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51. However, the point map displayed before the power failure is not displayed, and "????" is displayed in the updated image 520a so that the updated value is not recognized.

Since the state shown in FIG. 38(b1) is an advantageous section, the advantageous section transition lottery is not executed.

Next, during the advantageous section (usually the advantageous section is normal), the power was cut off before a specific time (4 AM in this example), and then the power was restored before the specific time (4 AM in this example). The case will be described. As shown in FIG. 38(a2), when the power is restored from the power interruption without changing the setting in the advantageous section and further without crossing 4:00 am (for example, in the case of a momentary interruption during business hours), As shown in (b2), the same screen as before the power interruption is displayed.

Since the state shown in FIG. 38(b2) is an advantageous section, the advantageous section transition lottery is not executed. The specific time described above may be any time as long as the game shop in which the slot machine 1 is installed is closed, and is not limited to 4:00 am. Further, as described above, the point map is not displayed when the power is cut off at 4:00 am, that is, the point map is not displayed when the game shop is opened.

Thus, as shown in FIGS. 36(a1) and 36(b1), when the slot machine 1 is cut off due to the setting change during the advantageous zone, and as shown in FIGS. 37(a1) and 37(b1) When the slot machine 1 is cut off over 4:00 am without changing the setting during the section, and when 4:00 am without changing the setting during the advantageous section as shown in FIGS. 38(a1) and (b1). In any case where the slot machine 1 is cut off across the power, the effect image of the same mode is displayed. As a result, the setting was changed by the administrator and the power was cut off, or the setting was not changed during the normal section, so-called setting deferred was cut off at the end of business hours, or the setting was changed during the advantageous section. Without this, it is possible to prevent the player from easily recognizing whether or not the power is cut off at the end of the business hours by so-called setting and deferring.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 37(a2) and (b2), and FIGS. 38(a2) and (b2), in the case of a momentary interruption, the original effect screen is displayed, so that the player plays the game. Even if a momentary interruption occurs during the power interruption, the player can continue the game from the state before the power interruption, and it is possible to prevent the player from feeling dissatisfied as much as possible.

[Setting change processing]
FIG. 39 is a flowchart of the setting change process executed by the main control unit 41. As shown in FIG. 39, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not there is a setting change operation (S1). When there is no setting change operation (NO in S1), the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

On the other hand, when there is a setting change operation (YES in S1), the main control unit 41 initializes the values for all counters and stocks (S2). For example, the total value of the number of completed games and the number of net additions counted in the payout state in the advantageous section, and the value of points obtainable during the game are initialized. Further, when the CZ stock which is the right to control the state in the advantageous zone CZ and the AT stock which is the right to control the state in the advantageous zone AT are held, the stock is also initialized.

After that, the main control unit 41 controls the state normally during the normal section (S3). For example, when the setting is changed normally, the state is normally maintained, and when the setting is changed in the payout state in the advantageous section, the state is normally controlled. After that, the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

When the setting is changed, for example, lottery related to games such as the type of mode in the advantageous section normal, the type of lottery table during CZ, or the number of games until reaching the ceiling is not performed.

[Main processing]
FIG. 40 is a flowchart of the main processing executed by the main control unit 41. As shown in FIG. 40, the main control unit 41 executes a game start waiting process (S11). In the game start waiting process, the main control unit 41 performs a process of setting the number of bets according to the insertion of medals, etc., and when the operation of the start switch 7 is detected in a state where the specified number of bets is set. , Performs processing for starting the next game. Next, the main controller 41 executes an internal lottery process (S12).

Next, the main controller 41 executes a payout control process (S13). The payout control process will be described later with reference to FIG. Next, the main control unit 41 executes reel rotation start processing (S14). In the reel rotation start process, the main control unit 41 starts rotation control of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R in a predetermined rotation mode.

Next, the main controller 41 executes reel stop control processing (S15). In the reel stop control process, the main control unit 41 performs a process related to navigation, and controls to stop the reel whose rotation is being controlled based on the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R.

Next, the main control part 41 executes a winning determination process (S16). In the winning determination process, the main control unit 41 determines the presence or absence of a winning and its type based on the result of the internal lottery and the symbol combination stopped on the reels 2L, 2C, 2R.

Next, the main controller 41 executes RT state setting processing (S17). In the RT state setting process, the main control unit 41 controls the RT state based on the result of the internal lottery and the result of the winning determination. For example, the main control unit 41 controls the RT state in the inside when the BB is won in the non-inside and the BB does not win. Further, the main control unit 41 controls the RT state of the BB when the BB wins inside.

Next, the main control unit 41 executes an AT state management process (S18). In the AT state management process, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the advantageous section G number is in the advantageous section based on whether the number of advantageous sections G is a value other than the initial value (for example, 0). When the main control unit 41 determines that it is in the advantageous zone, it counts the net number of medals paid out in the advantageous zone to update the net number increase counter, or the number of advantageous zones G or the ED transition G. Count the number. Further, the main control unit 41 determines whether the total number of increased nets has reached the upper limit value (for example, 2400) based on the updated net increased number counter, or the number of digestive games in the advantageous section based on the number of advantageous sections G. Reaches an upper limit value (for example, 1500 G), an advantageous zone end flag indicating that the advantageous zone is to be ended is set. Furthermore, the main control unit 41 sets an ED transition flag indicating that ED control is performed when the number of exhausted games in the advantageous zone reaches the ED transition G number based on the advantageous zone G number.

The advantageous section end flag set by the AT state management process is referred to by the main control unit 41. When the advantageous section end flag is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 41c, it relates to the advantageous section of the storage area of the RAM 41c. A predetermined area in which information (for example, the number of advantageous zones G, the number of net additions, the number of ED transitions G, and payout state information) is stored is initialized, thereby ending a series of advantageous zones.

Next, the main control unit 41 executes medal payout processing (S19). In the medal payout process, the main control unit 41 gives the player a predetermined number of medals predetermined for each winning combination, and adds the number of medals to be given to the credit. When the number of credits reaches the upper limit (50 in this embodiment), the medals that have not been added to the credits are paid out from the medal payout exit 9. After that, the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

[Ball output control processing]
FIG. 41 is a flowchart of the payout control process executed by the main control unit. As shown in FIG. 41, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not it is in the advantageous section (S21). When not in the advantageous section (NO in S21), the main control unit 41 executes normal processing (S22). The normal processing will be described later with reference to FIG. After that, the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

On the other hand, the main control unit 41 adds 1 to the advantageous period G number counter when it is in the advantageous period (YES in S21) (S23). The predetermined area of the RAM 41c in which the advantageous section G number counter is set is included in the predetermined area initialized when it is determined by the main processing that the advantageous section end flag is set. The number counter is set to an initial value (0) by being initialized at the end of the advantageous period.

Next, the main control unit 41 determines whether the RT state is BB (S24). When the RT state is not BB (NO in S24), the main control unit 41 ends this processing. On the other hand, when the RT state is BB (YES in S24), the main control unit 41 adds 1 to the ED transition G number counter (S25).

Next, the main control unit 41 executes a payout state process (S26). In the payout state process, the main control unit 41 performs processing according to the payout state that is currently being controlled. For example, as the payout state process, the main control unit 41 executes an advantageous-interval normal process shown in FIG. 44, which will be described later, and a lottery related to various benefits shown in FIGS.

As described above, regardless of whether the BB is in progress or not, the advantageous section G number is counted by the process of S23, while the ED transition G number is counted by the process of S25 only when the BB is not in progress, A lottery regarding the privilege is performed by the process of S27.

[Normal processing]
FIG. 42 is a flowchart of the normal processing performed by the main control unit 41. FIG. 43 is a diagram for explaining the privilege lottery table during normal operation. The main controller 41 executes the normal process when a start operation is performed in each normal game.

As shown in FIG. 42, the main control unit 41 carries out an advantageous section transition lottery (S31). In the advantageous section transition lottery, when one of the winning combination numbers 7 to 41 is won, the advantageous section is won.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 43(a), in the advantageous section transition lottery, when the winning combination number won in the internal lottery is 7 to 41, the advantageous section is won with 100% probability, while the internal lottery is drawn. If the winning number won in is any other number, the advantageous section is not won.

Returning to FIG. 42, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the advantageous zone has been won after performing the advantageous zone transition lottery (S32). When the advantageous section is not won (NO in S32), the main control unit 41 ends this processing. On the other hand, when the advantageous section is won (YES in S32), the main control unit 41 carries out a scenario lottery (S33).

As shown in FIG. 43(b), in the scenario lottery, one of the scenarios 1 to 5 is determined based on the type of flag category corresponding to the winning combination. For example, in the scenario lottery, it is easier to select scenario 5 or scenario 4 with FC4 with a higher probability than with FC1. Further, in the scenario lottery, when FC7 is selected, scenario 5 or scenario 4 is likely to be selected with a higher probability than when either FC4 or FC1 is selected.

Next, the main control part 41 performs a point acquisition lottery (S34). In the point acquisition lottery, points are determined based on the flag category assigned to the lottery target winning combination shown in FIG.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 43(c), in the point acquisition lottery, the number of points to be awarded is determined by lottery based on the flag category won in the internal lottery, and points are awarded to the player. .. Advantageous section Normally, when the points awarded based on the result of the point acquisition lottery reach the reaching point (for example, 100p, 300p, 600p), the point privilege lottery is conducted, and the CZ stock or AT stock is awarded to the player. It The CZ stock is a right for controlling the state in the advantageous zone CZ. For example, one CZ stock controls the state in the advantageous zone CZ over a period of 30G. The AT stock is a right for controlling the state in the advantageous section AT. For example, for each AT stock, the state is controlled in the advantageous section AT over a period of 30G, or 30 times of navigation is possible. The state may be controlled in the advantageous section AT over a period until it is executed.

Thus, as shown in FIG. 43(a), the advantageous section transition lottery is performed based on the winning combination numbers assigned to the respective lottery target combinations in the internal lottery, and as shown in FIG. 43(c), The point-acquisition lottery relating to the award of points used in the normal section is performed based on the category flag assigned for each type of lottery target combination in the internal lottery.

Returning to FIG. 42, after performing the point acquisition lottery, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the middle tier cherry 7 set has been won (S35). When the middle tier cherry 7 is won (YES in S35), the main control unit 41 performs the control for shifting the state from the normal to the advantageous zone bonus because the direct hit bonus is won (S36). Also, since the direct hit bonus is won, it is confirmed that the AT stock is given to the player and is controlled to the advantageous section AT.

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "0" which normally corresponds to "3" which corresponds to the advantageous zone bonus. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous zone bonus. Further, in this game, since the middle row of cherries has been won, the 7 rows can be derived regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch. The main control unit 41 ends this processing after the processing of S36.

On the other hand, when the middle tier cherry 7 set has not been won (NO in S35), the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the middle tier cherry character set has been won (S37). When the middle-tier cherry character match is won (YES in S37), the main control unit 41 carries out a freeze lottery (S38). Also, since the direct hit bonus is won, it is confirmed that the AT stock is given to the player and is controlled to the advantageous section AT. In the freeze lottery, it is determined whether or not the freeze is won, and when the freeze is won, the number of AT stocks to be granted is determined.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 43(d), in the freeze lottery, when the winning combination number in the internal lottery is 39 (middle cherry character alignment), whether or not the freeze is won and the freeze is won The number of AT stocks to be granted in the above is determined by lottery. When the freeze is won, the freeze control for delaying the progress of the game for a predetermined delay period is performed in the game after the game in which the middle-tier cherry character match is won. For example, the period until the first stop operation is validated after the start operation is delayed, or the period until the winning effect is executed after the third stop operation is delayed. Then, by performing the freeze control, the AT stock of the determined number of additions is additionally provided.

Returning to FIG. 42, after the processing of S38, the main control portion 41 performs control for shifting the state from normal to the advantageous zone bonus (S39).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "0" which normally corresponds to "3" which corresponds to the advantageous zone bonus. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous zone bonus. In addition, in this game, since the middle-tier cherry character alignment has been won, the character alignment can be derived regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch. The main control unit 41 ends this processing after the processing of S39.

On the other hand, the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state from normal to the advantageous section normal when the middle cherry character is not won (NO in S37) (S40).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "0" corresponding to normal to "1" corresponding to normal in the advantageous section. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous section normal. The main control unit 41 ends this processing after the processing of S40.

In this way, when a winning combination corresponding to winning combination number 7 to 41, which is an advantageous section transition combination, is won by the internal lottery, the processing for shifting the state from the normal state to the payout state in the advantageous section is performed, and the point Winning lottery will be held. In addition, if you win 1 set of 7 or 1 set of characters, you will win the advantageous section, but you will not win the direct hit bonus like you would if you got 7 sets of middle-tiered cherry or the same set of middle-tiered cherry characters. In addition, the advantageous section bonus is not controlled to the advantageous section AT.

[Advantageous section normal processing]
FIG. 44 is a flowchart of the advantageous zone normal process executed by the main control unit 41. FIG. 45 is a diagram for explaining the privilege lottery table during the normal advantageous section. FIG. 46 is a diagram for explaining the production related table. The main control unit 41 executes processing during the advantageous period normal during each game during the advantage period normal during the start operation.

As shown in FIG. 44, the main control unit 41 determines whether the number of digesting games in the advantageous section is 300G, 600G, or 900G (S51). When the number of exhausting games in the payout state in the advantageous section is any of 300G, 600G, and 900G (YES in S51), the main control unit 41 performs the prescribed game number CZ lottery (S52). In the prescribed game number CZ lottery, it is determined whether or not to win the CZ.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 45(a), in the prescribed game number CZ lottery, it is determined whether or not to win the CZ in the lottery, based on the number of advantageous sections G reached. When CZ is won in the prescribed game number CZ lottery, CZ stock is given to the player.

Returning to FIG. 44, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the number of exhausting games in the payout state in the advantageous section is 900G (S53). When the number of exhausting games in the payout state in the advantageous zone is 900G (YES in S53), the main control unit 41 gives the player AT stock (S54).

On the other hand, when the number of playing games in the payout state in the advantageous section is neither 300G, 600G, nor 900G (NO in S51), the main control unit 41 determines that the number of playing games in the payout state in the advantageous section is 900G. If not (NO in S53), or after the process of S54, it is determined whether or not the reaching point (for example, 100p, 300p, 600p) has been reached (S55). When the reaching point is reached (YES in S55), the main control unit 41 performs a point privilege lottery (S56). In the point privilege lottery, whether to win the CZ and whether to win the AT are determined.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 45(b), in the point privilege lottery, a lottery is performed based on the scenario determined in the scenario lottery of FIG. 43(b) and the level determined based on the reaching point. Whether to win the CZ and whether to win the AT are determined. Further, for example, as shown in FIG. 46(a), in the present embodiment, the level is determined based on the scenario determined by the scenario lottery in FIG. 43(b) and the reaching point. Specifically, the higher the reaching point is, the higher the level is. Further, the levels of scenario 4 and scenario 5 are set to be higher than those of scenario 1 to scenario 3.

As shown in FIG. 45(b), in the point privilege lottery, the higher the level, the higher the probability of winning the privilege. Furthermore, in the point privilege lottery, even in the privilege type determined at the time of privilege winning, the higher the level, the higher the probability of AT winning than the CZ winning. In the point privilege lottery, the probability of privilege winning differs depending on whether the current setting value is 1 to 5 or the current setting value is 6. Specifically, when the current setting value is 6, the probability of privilege winning is higher than when the current setting value is 1 to 5.

Further, as shown in FIG. 46(b), the type of icon display of the reaching point (that is, the type of reaching icon image) is determined according to the level. For example, in Level 1 and Level 2, the double circle is not displayed as the reaching icon image, but in Level 3 and Level 4, the double circle is displayed as the reaching icon image. Therefore, when a double circle is displayed as the reaching icon image, it is possible to suggest to the player that the level is high, that is, it is easy to win the bonus in the point bonus lottery and also easy to win the AT.

Also, as shown in FIG. 46(c), the type of the initial icon display of the reaching point (that is, the type of the reaching icon image at the start of the advantageous section as shown in FIGS. 33 and 34) depends on the level. It is set. For example, in Level 1, the circle is not initially displayed as the reaching icon image, but in Level 2 to Level 4, the circle is initially displayed as the reaching icon image. Therefore, when the circle is initially displayed as the arrival icon image, the player can be made aware that it is not level 1. Further, in Level 1 to Level 3, the double circle is not initially displayed as the reaching icon image, but in Level 4, the double circle may be initially displayed as the reaching icon image. Therefore, when the double circle is initially displayed, it is possible to suggest to the player that it is at level 4, that is, it is easy to win the bonus in the point bonus lottery and the AT is easily won.

Returning to FIG. 44, the main control unit 41 performs the point acquisition lottery after the process of S56 or when the reaching point has not been reached (NO in S55) (S57). In the point acquisition lottery, points are determined based on the flag category assigned to the lottery target winning combination shown in FIG.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 45(c), in the point acquisition lottery, the number of points to be awarded is determined by lottery based on the flag category won in the internal lottery, and points are awarded to the player. .. For example, in the point acquisition lottery, in the case of FC4, more points are likely to be added with a higher probability than in the case of FC1. Further, in the point acquisition lottery, when FC7, more points are more likely to be added with a higher probability than when either FC4 or FC1.

Further, in the present embodiment, the point acquisition lottery is performed based on a lottery table that differs depending on whether the mode is the normal mode or the acceleration mode. Specifically, although the winning probability is the same in the acceleration mode and the normal mode, more points are added in the acceleration mode than in the normal mode. For example, 1p is set as the lowest addition point in the normal mode, but 10p is set as the lowest addition point in the addition mode. Therefore, in the addition mode, by adding points, at least the moving character moves. In the acceleration mode, the winning probability may be higher than in the normal mode.

Here, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, FC1 is assigned to both the loss and the BB winning in the internal lottery. For this reason, in the advantageous section normal, the point acquisition lottery is performed based on the common lottery table shown in FIG. 45(c) depending on whether the BB is won in the non-internal or the internal loss. become.

In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 46(d), a different effect is executed for each addition point. Specifically, when the points are added, the effect is not executed or one of the effects A to D is executed. For example, when the added points are 1p, the effect is not executed, but when the added points are 10p or more, some effect is executed. The battle effect with a strong enemy and the treasure box effect are executed only when the added points are 50p or more. As described above, whether or not the effect is executed differs depending on the added points, and the type of effect is different. Therefore, when the point reaches the reaching point, whether or not the effect is executed, and the effect when the effect is executed. The player can be paid attention to.

Returning to FIG. 44, the main control unit 41 performs the acceleration mode promotion lottery after performing the point acquisition lottery (S58). In the acceleration mode promotion lottery, points are determined based on the flag category assigned to the lottery target winning combination shown in FIG.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 45(d), in the acceleration mode promotion lottery, it is determined whether or not to promote to the acceleration mode based on the flag category won in the internal lottery. For example, in the acceleration mode promotion lottery, FC4 facilitates promotion to the acceleration mode with a higher probability than FC1. In addition, in the acceleration mode promotion lottery, it is easier to promote to the acceleration mode in FC7 with a higher probability than in either FC4 or FC1.

Returning to FIG. 44, after performing the acceleration mode promotion lottery, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the middle tier cherry 7 set has been won (S59). If the middle tier cherry 7 is won (YES in S59), the main control unit 41 performs the control for shifting the state to the advantageous zone bonus because the direct hit bonus is won (S60). Also, since the direct hit bonus is won, it is confirmed that the AT stock is given to the player and is controlled to the advantageous section AT.

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "1" corresponding to the advantage section normal to "3" corresponding to the advantage section bonus. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous zone bonus. Further, in this game, since the middle row of cherries has been won, the 7 rows can be derived regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch. After the processing of S60, the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

On the other hand, when the middle tier cherry 7 set is not won (NO in S59), the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the middle tier cherry character set is won (S61). When the middle-tier cherry character match is won (YES in S61), the main control unit 41 carries out a freeze lottery (S62). Also, since the direct hit bonus is won, it is confirmed that the AT stock is given to the player and is controlled to the advantageous section AT. In the freeze lottery, it is determined whether or not the freeze is won, and when the freeze is won, the number of AT stocks to be granted is determined.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 45(e), in the freeze lottery, when the winning combination number won in the internal lottery is 39 (middle cherry character alignment), whether the freeze is won and the freeze is won The number of AT stocks to be granted in the above is determined by lottery. When the freeze is won, the freeze control for delaying the progress of the game for a predetermined delay period is performed in the game after the game in which the middle-tier cherry character match is won. For example, the period until the first stop operation is validated after the start operation is delayed, or the period until the winning effect is executed after the third stop operation is delayed. Then, by performing the freeze control, the AT stock of the determined number of additions is additionally provided.

Returning to FIG. 44, the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state to the advantageous zone bonus after the process of S62 (S63).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "1" corresponding to the advantage section normal to "3" corresponding to the advantage section bonus. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous zone bonus. In addition, in this game, since the middle-tier cherry character alignment has been won, the character alignment can be derived regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch. After the processing of S63, the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

On the other hand, if the main controller 41 has not won the middle cherry character set (NO in S61), the main controller 41 carries out the common bonus lottery (S64). In the common bonus lottery, the common bonus first lottery is first performed, and the common bonus second lottery is performed only when the common bonus first lottery is won. In the common bonus second lottery, it is determined whether or not the advantageous zone bonus is controlled.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 45(f), in the common bonus first lottery, when one of the combinations is won in the internal lottery, it is determined whether or not the bonus first prize is won in the lottery. .. When the first bonus is won in the common bonus first lottery, the common bonus second lottery can be taken.

Further, as shown in FIG. 45(g), in the common bonus second lottery, it is determined whether or not the second bonus is won in the lottery, based on the flag category won in the internal lottery. Specifically, in the common bonus second lottery, lottery is performed with different probabilities depending on whether the flag category won in the internal lottery is FC2 or FC3. The combination corresponding to FC2 includes one set of seven, and the combination corresponding to FC3 includes one set of character. In other words, if one player wins a set of 7 and one character, a chance to control the advantageous zone bonus is given. Further, in the common bonus second lottery, the probability of the second bonus winning is different with different probabilities depending on whether the current setting value is 1 to 5 or the current setting value is 6. Specifically, when the current setting value is 6, the probability of the second bonus winning is higher than when the current setting value is 1 to 5. When the second bonus is won in the common bonus second lottery, the common bonus is won.

Returning to FIG. 44, after the processing of S64, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the common bonus has been won (S65). When the common bonus is won (YES in S65), the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state to the advantageous zone bonus (S66). Also, since the common bonus is won, it is confirmed that the AT stock is given to the player and the player is controlled to the advantageous section AT.

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "1" corresponding to the advantage section normal to "3" corresponding to the advantage section bonus. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous zone bonus. In addition, in this game, when one of the 7 sets is won, a navigation is performed to allow the player to operate the stop switch by pressing the switch backward, and the player presses the switch backwards to derive the 7 sets. Can be done. Alternatively, when one character set is won, a navigation for causing the player to operate the stop switch by reversely pressing is performed, and by the player being reversely pressed, the character combination can be derived. In addition, when the precursor effect is performed over a plurality of games, since the common bonus winning is not definitely notified, in the game for which the common bonus is won, navigation for deriving 7 sets or character sets is not performed. Good. After the processing of S66, the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

On the other hand, when the common bonus is not won (NO in S65), the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the accumulated points are 1000p or more (S67). When the accumulated points are 1000p or more (YES in S67), the main control unit 41 adds CZ stock instead of subtracting 1000p from the accumulated points (S68). After that, the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state to the advantageous zone CZ (S69).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "1" corresponding to the advantage section normal to "2" corresponding to the advantage section CZ. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous zone CZ. The main control unit 41 ends this processing after the processing of S69. If the accumulated points are 1000p or more, AT stock may be given.

On the other hand, when the accumulated points are not 1000p or more (NO in S67), the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the CZ stock is added (S70). When the CZ stock is added (YES in S70), the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state to the advantageous zone CZ (S71).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "1" corresponding to the advantage section normal to "2" corresponding to the advantage section CZ. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous zone CZ. The main control unit 41 ends this processing after the processing of S71.

On the other hand, when the CZ stock has not been added (NO in S70), the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the AT stock has been added (S71). When the AT stock is provided (YES in S71), the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state to the advantageous section AT (S72).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "1" corresponding to the advantage section normal to "4" corresponding to the advantage section AT. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous section AT. The main control unit 41 ends this processing after the processing of S72.

On the other hand, if the AT stock has not been added (NO in S71), the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

[Special lottery during advantageous zone CZ]
FIG. 47 is a diagram for explaining the privilege lottery table in the advantageous zone CZ. As shown in FIG. 47, in the privilege lottery during the advantageous zone CZ, whether to win the AT is determined based on the flag category assigned to the lottery target combination shown in FIG. For example, in the privilege lottery during the advantageous zone CZ, it is easier to win the AT when FC4 is more likely than when FC1. In addition, in this privilege lottery, when it is FC7, it is easier to win the AT with a higher probability than when it is either FC4 or FC1.

Furthermore, in this privilege lottery, whether to win the AT is determined with different probabilities depending on whether the weak table or the strong table is used. For example, in the privilege lottery during the advantageous zone CZ, the AT is won with a higher probability when the strong table is used than when the weak table is used. Further, when the weak table is used, whether or not to promote to the strong table is also determined by lottery. Regardless of whether the weak table or the strong table is used, the probability that the advantageous section CZ is controlled to the advantageous section AT per game is set to be higher than that of the advantageous section normal.

Here, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, FC1 is assigned to both the loss and the BB winning in the internal lottery.

[State transition]
FIG. 50 is a diagram for explaining the transition of the payout state according to the second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 50, also in the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, non-inside, inside, and BB are provided as the game state, and normally in the payout state in the inside, it is advantageous. Section In general, an advantageous section CZ, an advantageous section bonus, an advantageous section AT, an advantageous section specializing zone, and an advantageous section ending are included.

Normally, when the advantageous section is won, it is determined whether or not to control the state in the advantageous section AT. Normally, the state is controlled to the advantageous section AT when the control to the advantageous section AT is determined. It should be noted that, in the normal operation or the advantageous area normal, the winning in which the state is directly controlled in the advantageous area AT without using the advantageous area CZ or the advantageous area bonus is also referred to as “direct hit AT winning”.

Normally, when a direct hit AT is won, a precursor effect that suggests that the state is controlled in the advantageous section AT or agitates is executed. For example, when a direct hit AT is normally won, in the game in which the direct hit AT is won, or in one or more games after the next game, the direct hit AT is won and the advantageous section AT is reached by lighting a character image or a lamp. Is effected to suggest or stir, and then the state is controlled to the advantageous section AT.

Advantageous section Normally, an advantageous lottery is performed, and it is determined whether or not to control to the advantageous section CZ, whether to control to the advantageous section bonus, and whether to control to the advantageous section AT. In the advantageous lottery, the winning such that the state is controlled in the advantageous zone CZ is "CZ winning", the winning in which the state is controlled by the advantageous zone bonus is "beneficial zone bonus winning", and the state is controlled in the advantageous zone AT. Such winning is also referred to as “direct hit AT winning”.

Advantageous section Normally, when the direct hit AT is won, the state is controlled to the advantageous section AT. In this case, a symptom effect that suggests or agitates that the state is controlled in the advantageous section AT is executed. For example, when the direct hit AT is won in the advantageous section normal, the direct hit AT is won by the direct hit AT or one or a plurality of games after the next game by the lighting of the character image or the lamp, and the advantageous section AT is selected. The effect that suggests or agitates that the state is controlled is performed, and then the state is controlled in the advantageous section AT.

Advantageous section Normally, when the advantageous section bonus is won, the state is controlled to the advantageous section bonus. In this case, a precursor effect that suggests or incites that the state is controlled by the advantageous zone bonus is executed. For example, when the advantageous section bonus is won in the advantageous section normal, the advantageous section bonus is won by a character image, a lamp, or the like in the game in which the advantageous section bonus is won, or in one or more games after the next game, and An effect that suggests or agitates that the state is controlled by the advantageous zone bonus is performed, and then the state is controlled by the advantageous zone bonus.

The other control and processing relating to the state transition are the same as the control and processing relating to the state transition of the slot machine 1 according to the first embodiment shown in FIG.

[Normal processing]
FIG. 51 is a flowchart of the normal processing performed by the main control unit 41 according to the second embodiment. FIG. 52 is a diagram for explaining a normal privilege lottery table according to the second embodiment. The main controller 41 executes the normal process when a start operation is performed in each normal game.

As shown in FIG. 51, the main control unit 41 carries out an advantageous section transition lottery (S131). In the advantageous zone transition lottery, the presence or absence of a win is determined based on whether or not the random number value obtained from the numerical values belonging to the predetermined range matches a predetermined determination value. Specifically, one or a plurality of random number values are acquired from the numerical values belonging to the range of 1 to 255, and if the acquired random number value matches the predetermined determination value, the advantageous section is won, and if not, it is advantageous. Do not win the section. The same method is used not only in the advantageous section transition lottery, but also in other lottery such as AT lottery, ED transition difference lottery, advantageous lottery, and highly accurate transition lottery, which will be described later.

In the advantageous section transition lottery, when one of the winning combination numbers 7 to 41 is won, the advantageous section is won. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 52(a), in the advantageous section transition lottery, when the winning combination numbers that are won in the internal lottery are 7 to 41, the number of judgment values corresponding to the advantageous section winning is 255. It is set. On the other hand, when the winning combination number that is won in the internal lottery is any other number, the number of determination values corresponding to the winning of the advantageous zone is set to 0. Therefore, in the advantageous section transition lottery, the advantageous section is always won when the winning combination numbers that are won in the internal lottery are 7 to 41.

Returning to FIG. 51, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the advantageous zone has been won after performing the advantageous zone transition lottery (S132). When the advantageous section is not won (NO in S132), the main control unit 41 ends this processing. On the other hand, when the advantageous section is won (YES in S132), the main control unit 41 performs scenario lottery (S133).

As shown in FIG. 52(b), in the scenario lottery, one of the scenarios 1 to 5 is determined based on the type of flag category corresponding to the winning combination.

Next, the main control unit 41 performs a point acquisition lottery (S134). In the point acquisition lottery, points are determined based on the flag category assigned to the lottery target winning combination shown in FIG.

Specifically, in the point acquisition lottery, as shown in FIG. 52(c), the number of points to be awarded is determined by lottery based on the flag category won in the internal lottery, and points are awarded to the player. ..

Next, the main control part 41 performs AT lottery (S135). In the AT lottery, whether or not to win the AT is determined based on the winning combination number assigned to the lottery target winning combination shown in FIG.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 52(d), in the AT lottery, the number of judgment values used in the AT lottery is set based on the winning combination number won in the internal lottery, and the acquired random number value is If the set judgment value is matched, the direct hit AT is won, and if it is not matched, the direct hit AT is not won. Further, in the AT lottery, different determination value numbers are set depending on whether the current setting value is 1 to 5 or the current setting value is 6. Specifically, when the current setting value is 6, the number of determination values is set so that the probability of winning the direct hit AT is higher than when the current setting value is 1 to 5. When a direct hit is won in the AT lottery, AT stock is given to the player.

Returning to FIG. 51, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not a direct hit AT is won (S136). When the direct hit AT is won (YES in S136), the main controller 41 performs control for shifting the state from the normal to the advantageous section AT (S137).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "0" corresponding to normal to "4" corresponding to the advantageous section AT. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous section AT. After the processing of S137, the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

On the other hand, when the direct hit AT is not won (NO in S136), the main control unit 41 carries out the ED transition difference lottery (S138). In the ED transition differential lottery, the ED transition differential is determined. Note that, unlike the first embodiment, the second embodiment is advantageous when the total value of the net increase in medals updated based on the progress of the game reaches a predetermined ED transition difference during the advantageous section. The state is controlled by the section ending. In the advantageous zone ending, for example, it is determined that the control to the payout state in the advantageous zone is continued until the total value of the net additional number reaches the upper limit number, and for example, the ED transition difference sheet is set to 2100 sheets, and When the maximum number of coins is set to 2400, and when the total value of the net increase in the payout state during the advantageous period reaches 2100, the number of net increases in the advantageous period is 2400. The ball state (specifically, the advantageous section AT) continues. In this case, the acquisition of 300 medals will be confirmed when the total value of the net increase in number reaches 2100. The ED shift difference sheet is set when the state shifts from the normal state to the payout state in the advantageous section. The ED transition difference sheet is not limited to the one determined by the lottery, and may be set in advance.

As shown in FIG. 52(e), in the ED transition difference sheet lottery, different judgment value numbers are set according to a plurality of types of ED transition difference sheets, and when one of the winning combinations is won in the internal lottery. , ED transition difference sheet is determined by lottery.

Returning to FIG. 51, the main control unit 41 sets the ED transition difference sheet determined by the ED transition difference sheet lottery after the processing of S138 (S139). After that, the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state from normal to the advantageous section normal (S140).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "0" corresponding to normal to "1" corresponding to normal in the advantageous section. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous section normal. The main control unit 41 ends this processing after the processing of S140.

[Advantageous section normal processing]
FIG. 53 is a flowchart of the advantageous zone normal process executed by the main control unit 41 according to the second embodiment. FIG. 54 is a diagram for explaining the privilege lottery table during the advantageous section normal according to the second embodiment. The main control unit 41 executes processing during the advantageous period normal during each game during the advantage period normal during the start operation.

As shown in FIG. 53, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the reaching point (for example, 100p, 300p, 600p) has been reached (S151). When the reaching point is reached (YES in S151), the main control unit 41 performs a point privilege lottery (S152). In the point privilege lottery, whether to win the CZ and whether to win the AT are determined.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 54(a), in the point privilege lottery, a lottery is performed based on the scenario determined in the scenario lottery of FIG. 43(b) and the level determined based on the reaching point. Whether to win the CZ and whether to win the AT are determined.

Returning to FIG. 53, after the process of S152 or when the reaching point has not been reached (NO in S151), the main control unit 41 performs a point acquisition lottery (S153). In the point acquisition lottery, points are determined based on the flag category assigned to the lottery target winning combination shown in FIG.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 54B, in the point acquisition lottery, the number of points to be awarded is determined by lottery based on the flag category won in the internal lottery, and points are awarded to the player. ..

Further, in the present embodiment, the point acquisition lottery is performed based on a lottery table that differs depending on whether the mode is the normal mode or the acceleration mode. Specifically, although the winning probability is the same in the acceleration mode and the normal mode, more points are added in the acceleration mode than in the normal mode.

Returning to FIG. 53, the main control unit 41 performs the acceleration mode promotion lottery after performing the point acquisition lottery (S154). In the acceleration mode promotion lottery, points are determined based on the flag category assigned to the lottery target winning combination shown in FIG.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 54C, in the acceleration mode promotion lottery, it is determined whether or not to promote to the acceleration mode based on the flag category won in the internal lottery.

Returning to FIG. 53, the main control unit 41 carries out the advantageous lottery after carrying out the acceleration mode promotion lottery (S155). In the advantageous lottery, whether to win the CZ, whether to win the advantageous zone bonus, and whether to win the AT are determined.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 54(d), in the advantageous lottery, the number of determination values used in the advantageous lottery is set based on the winning combination number in the internal lottery, and the acquired random number value is The winning type that matches the set determination value is determined. Furthermore, in the advantageous lottery, different determination value numbers are set depending on whether the probability state currently under control is low probability or high accuracy. In the advantageous lottery, the number of judgment values does not differ according to the set value.

Here, comparing the AT lottery during normal operation shown in FIG. 52(d) with the advantage lottery during advantageous interval normal shown in FIG. 54(d), the middle-tier cherries 7 (role number 38 ) Or middle-tier cherry character assortment (role number 39), the number of judgment values for the AT win in the advantageous lottery is that the middle-tier cherry 7 assortment (role number 38) and the middle-tier cherry character assortment (role number 39) are normally used. It is smaller than the number of judgment values of the direct hit AT winning in the AT lottery when winning. In other words, the number of judgment values for the direct hit AT win in the AT lottery when the middle tier 7 set (role number 38) and the middle tier cherry character set (role number 39) are won during the normal period is It is larger than the number of judgment values of the AT winning in the advantageous lottery when the match (role number 38) or the middle-tier cherry character alignment (role number 39) is won. As described above, the AT lottery during the normal period has a higher probability of being controlled to the advantageous period AT than the advantageous lottery during the advantageous period normal, and is a lottery advantageous for the player.

In addition, in the AT lottery during the normal period, the number of judgment values for the direct hit AT win when the general role corresponding to the winning combination numbers 2 to 8 to 31 is set is set, while the advantageous lottery during the advantageous section normal period is set. In the above, the number of judgment values for AT win when the general wins corresponding to the winning numbers 2, 8 to 31 are won is not set. As described above, in the AT lottery during the normal operation, when the general winning combination corresponding to the winning combination numbers 2, 8 to 31 is won, the lottery for controlling the advantageous area AT is performed, while in the advantageous interval during the normal operation. In the advantageous lottery, the lottery for controlling the advantageous section AT is not performed when the general combination corresponding to the combination numbers 2, 8 to 31 is won.

Further, in the AT lottery during the normal operation, the lottery table differs depending on the set value, whereas in the advantageous lottery during the advantageous section normal, the lottery table does not differ according to the set value.

In the advantageous lottery, the CZ stock is given to the player when the CZ is won, the advantageous zone bonus is given to the player when the advantageous zone bonus is won, and the AT stock is given to the player when the AT is won. ..

Returning to FIG. 53, the main control unit 41 performs a highly accurate transition lottery after the processing of S155 (S156). As shown in FIG. 54(e), in the high-probability transition lottery, the number of determination values is set for each of the low-probability and the high-probability based on the winning combination number won in the internal lottery, and the acquired random number The probability state in which the numerical value matches the set judgment value is determined. It should be noted that in the high-accuracy transfer lottery, the number of judgment values does not differ depending on the set value.

In the high-accuracy transition lottery, the probability state is controlled with low accuracy when it is determined with low accuracy, and the probability state is controlled with high accuracy when determined with high accuracy.

Returning to FIG. 53, after the processing of S156, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not CZ stock has been added (S157). When the CZ stock is added (YES in S157), the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state to the advantageous zone CZ (S158).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "1" corresponding to the advantage section normal to "2" corresponding to the advantage section CZ. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous zone CZ. After the processing of S158, the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

On the other hand, when the CZ stock is not given (NO in S157), the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the advantageous zone bonus is won (S159). When the advantageous zone bonus is won (YES in S159), the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state to the advantageous zone bonus (S160).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "1" corresponding to the advantage section normal to "3" corresponding to the advantage section bonus. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous zone bonus. After the processing of S160, the main control unit 41 ends this processing.

On the other hand, if the advantageous section bonus has not been won (NO in S159), the main control unit 41 determines whether or not AT stock has been given (S161). When the AT stock is provided (YES in S161), the main control unit 41 performs control for shifting the state to the advantageous section AT (S162).

Specifically, the main control unit 41 updates the payout flag so that the payout state is changed from "1" corresponding to the advantage section normal to "4" corresponding to the advantage section AT. As a result, the state is controlled from the next game to the advantageous section AT.

On the other hand, the main control unit 41 ends this processing when the AT stock is not given (NO in S161) or after the processing of S162.

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

(1-1) Equipped with a variable display unit 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,
A payout state control means for controlling the payout state (for example, a process for controlling the payout state by the main controller 41);
And a pre-determination means (for example, a process of performing an internal lottery by the main control unit 41) for determining a display result that permits derivation,
The payout state includes a first payout state (for example, advantageous zone normal), a second payout state (for example, advantageous zone CZ), and more than the first payout state and the second payout state. A third payout state that is advantageous to the player (for example, advantageous section AT) is included,
The determination result of the pre-determination means is a special determination result (for example, BB winning) that allows derivation of a special display result (for example, BB symbol combination) for controlling to a special game state (for example, BB). Included,
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determination means is the special decision result and the special display result is not derived, the special decision result is Carried over after the next game (for example, a process of carrying over the BB winning by the main control unit 41),
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, a derivable game in which the special display result can be derived (for example, a game in which BB is won in the non-internal, a game in which the internal is lost) In the derivable game, it is more advantageous for the player that the special display result is not derived than the special display result is derived (for example, in the advantage section normal and the advantage section CZ). Is advantageous not to win BB),
In the derivable game in the first payout state, when the special display result is not derived, the first benefit relating to the third payout state (for example, points used in the point benefit lottery shown in FIG. 45B). ) Can be given, while the first privilege cannot be given when the special display result is derived (for example, the example shown in FIG. 22 ),
In the derivable game in the second payout state, when the special display result is not derived, the second benefit (for example, promotion of the table used in the benefit lottery shown in FIG. 47) related to the third payout state. While the grant is possible, the second privilege cannot be granted when the special display result is derived (for example, the example shown in FIG. 23).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 22, in the normal advantageous section game, points are awarded when a BB prize is missed in the BB winning possible game, but points are not awarded when the BB prize is won. Also, as shown in FIG. 23, in the advantageous zone CZ, in the BB winning game, when the BB winning is missed, the lottery table is promoted, while when the BB winning is won, the lottery table is not promoted. In this way, when the BB winning is missed, the privilege given to each payout state is different, and the interest of the game can be improved by constructing the game play in consideration of a plurality of states. It is possible to continue the motivation to continue playing. In addition, in a BB winning game, the player can be made aware that the BB winning is missed.

(1-2) In each of the first payout state and the second payout state, the rate of giving the gaming value per unit game is less than 1 (for example, the example shown in FIG. 5),
The second payout state has a higher probability of being controlled to the third payout state per unit game than the first payout state (for example, control to the advantageous zone AT per game of the advantageous zone CZ). The probability of being set is higher than usual in the advantageous section).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, in both the advantageous section normal and the advantageous section CZ, the payout rate per game is less than 1, but the advantageous section CZ is controlled to the advantageous section AT per game. The probability of being hit is set to be higher than that of the advantage section. In this way, since the probability of being controlled to the advantageous section AT is different for each payout state, it is possible to improve the interest of the game.

(1-3) Even in the third payout state, when the determination result of the pre-determination means is the special determination result and the special display result is not derived, the special determination result is after the next game. Carried over (for example, the process of carrying over the BB win by the main control unit 41),
Even in the third payout state, the derivable game may be performed, and in the derivable game, it is more advantageous for the player that the special display result is not derived than the special display result is derived. (For example, it is more advantageous not to win a BB in the advantageous section AT),
In the derivable game in the third payout state, when the special display result is not derived, it is possible to give a third privilege related to the third payout state (for example, addition of an AT game). When the special display result is derived, the third privilege cannot be granted (for example, the example shown in FIG. 24).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 24, in the BB winning possible game in the advantageous section AT, when the BB winning is missed, the addition of the AT game is given, while when the BB winning is made, the AT game is added. No add-on is added. As a result, in the BB prize winning game, the player can be made aware that the BB prize is lost.

(1-4) The first privilege is a privilege for facilitating control to the third payout state (for example, points used in the point privilege lottery shown in FIG. 45B),
The second privilege is a privilege for facilitating control to the third payout state and is more advantageous to the player than the first privilege (for example, used in the privilege lottery shown in FIG. 47. Table promotion),
The third benefit is a benefit for extending the control period in the third payout state (for example, addition of an AT game).

In this way, since the privilege granted according to the payout state is different, the game is diversified and the interest of the game can be improved.

(1-5) A plurality of variable display sections are provided, and a prize can be generated according to a display result combination that is a combination of display results of the plurality of variable display sections,
A display means (for example, a liquid crystal display 51) for displaying an image is provided,
The display unit displays an image suggesting the granting of the first privilege, the second privilege, or the third privilege at a specific timing after all the variable displays of the plurality of variable display units are stopped ( For example, FIG. 22(d1), FIG. 23(d1), and FIG. 24(d1)).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 22(d1), FIG. 23(d1), and FIG. 24(d1), an image that suggests the award of a privilege at the timing after the third stop operation is performed in the BB winning game. Is displayed. This allows the player to pay attention to whether or not the privilege is awarded during the third stop operation.

(1-5) In the above (1-4),
When the special display result is derived in the derivable game in any one of the first payout state, the second payout state, and the third payout state, the display means, at the specific timing, An image indicating that control to the special game state is being performed is displayed (for example, the example of FIG. 22(d3), FIG. 23(d3), and FIG. 24(d3)).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 22(d3), FIG. 23(d3), and FIG. 24(d3), when the BB is won in the BB winning game, the BB is performed at the timing of the third stop operation. An image indicating that it is inside is displayed. This allows the player to recognize that the privilege has not been granted during the third stop operation.

(1-6) The probability that the derivable game is played is higher than the determination probability of each determination result by the predetermination means (for example, the example shown in FIG. 12).

Specifically, the probability of winning the BB in the non-internal and the probability of losing in the internal are higher than the winning probabilities of the other lottery target winning combinations. As a result, since the BB prize winning games are played with high frequency, it is possible to make the player frequently expect that the privilege is given when the BB prize is missed.

(1-7) A plurality of the variable display sections are provided, and a prize can be generated according to a display result combination which is a combination of display results of the plurality of variable display sections,
A plurality of derivation operation means (for example, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R) operated to derive the display result combination,
The determination result of the pre-determination means includes a plurality of operation order determination results (for example, push forward combination) with different display results derived according to the operation order of the plurality of derivation operation means,
The probability that the derivable game is played is lower than the sum of the determination probabilities of the plurality of operation order determination results by the predetermination means (for example, the example shown in FIG. 12).

Specifically, the probability of winning BB in the non-internal and the probability of losing in the internal are higher than the winning probability of each pushing forward combination. As a result, since the BB prize winning games are played with high frequency, it is possible to make the player frequently expect that the privilege is given when the BB prize is missed.

(2-1) Equipped with a variable display unit 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,
A payout state control means for controlling the payout state (for example, a process for controlling the payout state by the main controller 41);
And a pre-determination means (for example, a process of performing an internal lottery by the main control unit 41) for determining a display result that permits derivation,
The payout state includes a first payout state (for example, advantageous zone normal), a second payout state (for example, advantageous zone CZ), and more than the first payout state and the second payout state. A third payout state that is advantageous to the player (for example, advantageous section AT) is included,
The determination result of the pre-determination means is a special determination result (for example, BB winning) that allows derivation of a special display result (for example, BB symbol combination) for controlling to a special game state (for example, BB). Included,
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determination means is the special decision result and the special display result is not derived, the special decision result is Carried over after the next game (for example, a process of carrying over the BB winning by the main control unit 41),
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, a derivable game in which the special display result can be derived (for example, a game in which BB is won in the non-internal, a game in which the internal is lost) In the derivable game, it is more advantageous for the player that the special display result is not derived than the special display result is derived (for example, in the advantage section normal and the advantage section CZ). Is advantageous not to win BB),
In the derivable game in the first payout state, when the special display result is not derived, the first benefit relating to the third payout state (for example, points used in the point benefit lottery shown in FIG. 45B). ) Can be given, while the first privilege cannot be given when the special display result is derived (for example, the example shown in FIG. 22 ),
In the derivable game in the second payout state, when the special display result is not derived, the second benefit (for example, promotion of the table used in the benefit lottery shown in FIG. 47) related to the third payout state. While the grant is possible, the second privilege cannot be granted when the special display result is derived (for example, the example shown in FIG. 23 ),
In the derivable game, the first derivable game in which the determination result of the pre-determining means is the special determination result when the special determination result is not carried over (for example, a game in which BB is won during non-internal). ), and when the special decision result is carried over, the second derivable game in which the decision result of the pre-determining means is a decision result that does not allow the derivation of any display result (for example, loses in the inside). And the game)
In the first payout state, based on a lottery table common to the first derivable game and the second derivable game (for example, a point privilege lottery table shown in FIG. 45B), the first privilege A lottery related to granting is done,
In the second payout state, a lottery related to the granting of the second benefit based on a lottery table common to the first derivable game and the second derivable game (for example, a privilege lottery table shown in FIG. 47). Is done.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 22, in the normal advantageous section game, points are awarded when a BB prize is missed in the BB winning possible game, but points are not awarded when the BB prize is won. Also, as shown in FIG. 23, in the advantageous zone CZ, in the BB winning game, when the BB winning is missed, the lottery table is promoted, while when the BB winning is won, the lottery table is not promoted. In this way, when the BB winning is missed, the privilege given to each payout state is different, and the interest of the game can be improved by constructing the game play in consideration of a plurality of states. It is possible to continue the motivation to continue playing. In addition, in a BB winning game, the player can be made aware that the BB winning is missed. Further, during non-internal and internal during the advantageous section normal, or during non-internal and internal during the advantageous section CZ, since a privilege is given by using a common table in the BB winning game, the processing load related to the lottery. Can be reduced.

(2-2) Probability that the first derivable game is played when the special decision result is not carried over, and probability that the second derivable game is performed when the special decision result is carried over. Are the same (for example, the example shown in FIG. 12).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 12, since the probability of winning the BB in the non-internal is the same as the probability of losing in the internal, regardless of whether it is in the non-internal or internal. The player can be allowed to play the BB winning game with a certain probability.

(2-3) Even in the third payout state, when the determination result of the pre-determination means is the special determination result and the special display result is not derived, the special determination result is after the next game. Carried over,
Even in the third payout state, the derivable game may be performed, and in the derivable game, it is more advantageous for the player that the special display result is not derived than the special display result is derived. And
In the derivable game in the third payout state, when the special display result is not derived, it is possible to give the third privilege related to the third payout state, while the special display result is derived. When the above, it is impossible to grant the third privilege,
In the third payout state, a lottery relating to the granting of the third benefit is performed based on a lottery table common to the first derivable game and the second derivable game.

Specifically, during the non-inside and inside of the advantageous section AT, since the privilege is awarded using the common table in the BB winning game, it is possible to reduce the processing load related to the lottery.

(2-4) A lottery for granting a privilege is performed based on category information (for example, flag category) assigned for each type of the determination result of the pre-determination means,
Specific category information (for example, FC1) common to the determination result of the predetermination means in the first derivable game and the determination result of the predetermination means in the second derivable game is assigned,
The number of pieces of category information is smaller than the number of pieces of allocation information allocated to each of the determination results of the pre-determining means (for example, the examples shown in FIGS. 10 and 11).

Specifically, the lottery of the privilege is performed based on the flag category having a smaller number than the winning combination number, and FC1 is assigned to both the loss and the BB winning in the internal lottery. Thereby, since it is not necessary to use the winning combination number for the lottery of the privilege, it is possible to perform a suitable lottery without a control burden.

(2-5) In the above (2-4),
The decision result of the pre-determination means includes a predetermined decision result different from the special decision result (for example, normal lip winning),
The specific category information is also assigned to the predetermined determination result (for example, the examples shown in FIGS. 10 and 11).

Specifically, since the same FC1 as that for BB and loss is assigned to the normal lip as well, it is possible to reduce the capacity required for the process related to the lottery of the privilege.

(3-1) Equipped with a variable display unit capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of identification information (for example, designs) 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,
A payout state control means for controlling the payout state (for example, a process for controlling the payout state by the main controller 41);
And a pre-determination means (for example, a process of performing an internal lottery by the main control unit 41) for determining a display result that permits derivation,
The payout state includes a first payout state (for example, advantage zone normal), a second payout state that is more advantageous to the player than the first payout state (for example, advantage zone CZ), and the second payout state. The first payout state and the third payout state that is more advantageous to the player than the second payout state (for example, advantageous section AT) are included.
The determination result of the pre-determination means is a special determination result (for example, BB winning) that allows derivation of a special display result (for example, BB symbol combination) for controlling to a special game state (for example, BB). Included,
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determination means is the special decision result and the special display result is not derived, the special decision result is Carried over after the next game (for example, a process of carrying over the BB winning by the main control unit 41),
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, a derivable game in which the special display result can be derived (for example, a game in which BB is won in the non-internal, a game in which the internal is lost) In the derivable game, it is more advantageous for the player that the special display result is not derived than the special display result is derived (for example, in the advantage section normal and the advantage section CZ). Is advantageous not to win BB),
In the derivable game, the first derivable game in which the determination result of the pre-determining means is the special determination result when the special determination result is not carried over (for example, a game in which BB is won during non-internal). ), and when the special decision result is carried over, the second derivable game in which the decision result of the pre-determining means is a decision result that does not allow the derivation of any display result (for example, loses in the inside). And the game)
In the first payout state, no specific suggestion (e.g., winning suggestion of a black diamond image) suggesting the special decision result is made in any of the first derivable game and the second derivable game (for example, , The example shown in FIG. 22),
In the second payout state, the specific suggestion common to the first derivable game and the second derivable game is performed (for example, the example shown in FIG. 23).

As shown in FIG. 22, in the BB prize winning game in the advantage section normal, points are awarded when a BB prize is missed, but points are not awarded when a BB prize is won. Also, as shown in FIG. 23, in the advantageous zone CZ, in the BB winning game, when the BB winning is missed, the lottery table is promoted, while when the BB winning is won, the lottery table is not promoted. In this way, when the BB winning is missed, the privilege given to each payout state is different, and the interest of the game can be improved by constructing the game play in consideration of a plurality of states. It is possible to continue the motivation to continue playing. In addition, in a BB winning game, the player can be made aware that the BB winning is missed. Further, in the advantageous section normal, the winning combination is not suggested in the BB winning possible game, while in the advantageous section CZ, the winning combination is suggested in the non-internal and internal winning games. As a result, it is possible to cause the player to lose the BB prize in both the inside and the inside of the advantageous zone CZ. Further, by suggesting the winning combination, the player can be inferred that the payout state under control is the advantageous zone CZ.

(3-2) In each of the first payout state and the second payout state, the rate of giving the gaming value per unit game is less than 1 (for example, the example shown in FIG. 5),
The second payout state has a higher probability of being controlled to the third payout state per unit game than the first payout state (for example, control to the advantageous zone AT per game of the advantageous zone CZ). The probability of being set is higher than usual in the advantageous section).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, in both the advantageous section normal and the advantageous section CZ, the payout rate per game is less than 1, but the advantageous section CZ is controlled to the advantageous section AT per game. The probability of being hit is set to be higher than that of the advantage section. In this way, since the probability of being controlled to the advantageous section AT is different for each payout state, it is possible to improve the interest of the game.

(3-3) Even in the third payout state, when the determination result of the pre-determining means is the special determination result and the special display result is not derived, the special determination result is after the next game. Carried over,
Even in the third payout state, the derivable game may be performed, and in the derivable game, it is more advantageous for the player that the special display result is not derived than the special display result is derived. And
In the third payout state, the specific suggestion common to the second payout state is performed in both the first derivable game and the second derivable game.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 23 and FIG. 24, in both the advantageous section CZ and the advantageous section AT, a common winning combination suggestion is made in the BB winning possible games. In either case, the player can be made to miss the BB prize. Furthermore, the common winning suggestion is made easier to understand.

(3-4) A plurality of the variable display sections are provided, and a prize can be generated according to a display result combination which is a combination of display results of the plurality of variable display sections,
Start operation means (for example, start switch 7) operated to start variable display of the plurality of variable display sections,
A plurality of derivation operation means (for example, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R) operated to derive a display result combination,
The suggesting means for making the specific suggestion includes a first suggesting means (for example, a liquid crystal display 51) and a second suggesting means (for example, a side lamp 27),
In the first derivable game or the second derivable game, when the start operation means is operated, the specific suggestion by the first suggesting means and the second suggesting means starts, and the plurality of variable displays When the part is variably displayed, when any one of the plurality of derivation operation means is operated and there is no possibility of derivation of the special display result, the specific suggestion by the first suggestion means ends. On the other hand, when the specific suggestion made by the second suggesting means continues and one variably displaying section is variably displayed, when the derivation operating means corresponding to the one variably displaying section is operated, The specific suggestion by the second suggestion means ends (for example, the examples shown in FIGS. 20, 21, 23, and 24).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 20, FIG. 21, FIG. 23, and FIG. 24, when the start operation is performed, the winning combination suggesting effect is started using the liquid crystal display 51 and the side lamp 27, and then, When the failure to win the BB prize is confirmed by the 1 stop operation, the suggestion by the liquid crystal display 51 ends, while the suggestion by the side lamp 27 continues, and the suggestion by the side lamp 27 when the third stop operation is performed. Ends. In this way, since the winning combination suggestion is performed in two stages, it can be suggested to the player in an easy-to-understand manner.

(3-5) In the above (3-4),
When the specific suggestion by the second suggesting means is finished, the first suggesting means suggests that a privilege is to be given,
Suggestions for awarding are different between the first payout state and the second payout state (for example, FIG. 23(d1) and FIG. 23(d1)).

Specifically, when a BB winning is missed in a BB winning game, the liquid crystal display 51 suggests that the privilege according to the payout state is suggested after the winning winning suggestion effect is finished, so that the enjoyment of the game is improved. Can be made.

(3-6) The determination result of the pre-determination means includes a specific determination result (for example, common plum winning) different from the special determination result,
Even when the determination result of the pre-determination means is the specific determination result, the specific suggestion is made (for example, the example shown in FIGS. 20 and 21).

Specifically, not only for games that can win BB prizes, but also for games that have won rare roles such as common plums, the winning suggestion effect is executed, so it is urged to drop BB prizes and wins rare roles. It is possible to make the player expect that the player is playing.

(3-7) In the second derivable game, the special game state is controlled when the special display result is derived,
When the special game state ends, a game is performed in which the original payout state is controlled and the special decision result is not carried over (for example, after the end of BB, the original payout state in the non-internal state is performed). Controlled).

Specifically, after the BB ends, the original payout state in the non-internal state is controlled, but in the game in which the BB winning is possible, the player can avoid the BB winning by the winning suggestion suggestion effect. It is safe.

(3-8) The stay ratio of the game in the first payout state is higher than the stay ratio of the game in any of the second payout state and the third payout state, and in the second payout state. It is higher than the stay ratio of the game and the game in the third payout state (for example, the stay ratio of the game in the advantage section normal is higher than the stay rate of the game in both the advantage section CZ and the advantage section AT, And it is higher than the stay ratio of the total game totaling the games in the advantageous section CZ and the advantageous section AT)
Specifically, the stay rate of the game in the advantage section normal is higher than the stay rate of the game in both of the advantage section CZ and the advantage section AT, and the total of the total game totaling the games in the advantage section CZ and the advantage section AT. Greater than stay rate. It is possible to prevent the player from feeling annoyed as much as possible by making an image, sound, light, or the like by suggesting the winning combination so that the winning combination is not suggested in the advantageous section where the stay ratio is large.

(3-9) In the game in the special game state, the lottery for granting the privilege related to the third payout state is not performed, whereas in the derivable game, the lottery for granting the privilege is performed. , The derivable game is more advantageous to the player than the game in the special game state (for example, the lottery related to the privilege is not performed during the BB, whereas the lottery related to the privilege is performed in the BB winning game). Will be).

Specifically, the lottery related to the privilege is not performed during the BB, whereas the lottery related to the privilege is performed in the BB winning game, and if the BB prize is won, the grant of the privilege is canceled. For the player, it is advantageous to drop the BB prize in the BB prize winning game.

(3-10) When the count value counted based on the progress of the game reaches the upper limit value, the initial payout state (for example, normal in the normal section) is controlled,
In the special game state, the update value is not updated for each payout state, while the count value is counted (for example, in BB, the ED transition G number and points are updated). However, the number of advantageous zones G and the number of net additions are counted.

Specifically, while the ED transition G number and points are not updated during the BB, the advantageous section G number and the net increase are counted, so that the player can win the BB in the BB winning game. It is more advantageous to miss.

(3-11) The value-added rate for the game value per unit game in the special game state is lower than the value-added rate in the third payout state (for example, in BB, payout is higher than in the advantageous section AT). Low rate).

Specifically, during the BB, the payout rate is lower than that in the advantageous section AT, and therefore, it is advantageous for the player to lose the BB winning in the BB winning possible game.

(4-1) Equipped with a variable display unit 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,
A payout state control means for controlling the payout state (for example, a process for controlling the payout state by the main controller 41);
A pre-determination means for determining a display result that permits derivation (for example, a process of performing an internal lottery by the main control unit 41),
And a count means (for example, a process of updating the advantageous section G number by the main control unit 41) for updating a count value (for example, the advantageous section G number) based on the progress of the game,
The payout state includes a first payout state (for example, advantageous zone normal), a second payout state (for example, advantageous zone CZ), and more than the first payout state and the second payout state. A third payout state that is advantageous to the player (for example, advantageous section AT) is included,
The determination result of the pre-determination means is a special determination result (for example, BB winning) that allows derivation of a special display result (for example, BB symbol combination) for controlling to a special game state (for example, BB). Included,
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determination means is the special decision result and the special display result is not derived, the special decision result is Carried over after the next game (for example, a process of carrying over the BB winning by the main control unit 41),
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, a derivable game in which the special display result can be derived (for example, a game in which BB is won in the non-internal, a game in which the internal is lost) In the derivable game, it is more advantageous for the player that the special display result is not derived than the special display result is derived (for example, in the advantage section normal and the advantage section CZ). Is advantageous not to win BB),
The counting means counts the count value in any of the first payout state, the second payout state, and the third payout state (for example, in any payout state in the advantageous zone. Also the number of advantageous sections G is updated),
In the third payout state, when the count value reaches the upper limit value, the control to the third payout state ends (for example, as shown in FIG. 4, the advantageous section G number is 1500 G in the advantageous section. State transitions to the normal section when is reached),
In the special gaming state controlled by the special display result being derived in the first payout state (for example, BB controlled in the advantage zone normal), the third payout state in the first payout state While the process for controlling the state (for example, the process related to AT such as the point privilege lottery shown in FIG. 45B) is not performed, the count value is counted (for example, the number of advantageous intervals G is counted). , The example shown in FIG. 5),
In the special gaming state controlled by the special display result being derived in the second payout state (for example, BB controlled in the advantageous zone CZ), the third payout in the second payout state While the processing for controlling the state (for example, processing related to AT such as privilege lottery shown in FIG. 47) is not performed, the count value is counted (for example, the number of advantageous intervals G is counted, FIG. 5).

Specifically, in the advantageous section normal, the processing related to the AT such as the point privilege lottery is performed, while the processing related to the AT is not performed in the BB, but the number of the advantageous section G is counted. Further, in the advantageous zone CZ, processing related to AT such as privilege lottery is performed, while processing related to AT is not performed in BB, but the number of advantageous zones G is counted. In this way, the privilege given to each payout state is different, and the interest of the game can be improved by constructing the playability in consideration of multiple states, so that the player's motivation to continue the game is maintained. be able to. In addition, in a BB winning game, the player can be made aware that the BB winning is missed.

(4-2) A display means (for example, a liquid crystal display 51) for displaying an image is provided,
The display means is
A related image (for example, a point map, an image showing the number of remaining games in the advantageous zone CZ) related to the third payout state is displayed for each payout state,
In the special game state, a background image (for example, an image regarding BB) is displayed so as to hinder the visual recognition of the related image,
The background image is common regardless of the special game state controlled in any of the payout states (for example, the examples shown in FIG. 22(d3) and FIG. 23(d3)).

And a derivation control unit (for example, a process of performing reel control by the main control unit 41) that performs control for deriving the display result combination,
The payout state includes a first payout state (for example, advantageous zone normal), a second payout state (for example, advantageous zone CZ), and more than the first payout state and the second payout state. A third payout state that is advantageous to the player (for example, advantageous section AT) is included,
The determination result of the pre-determination means is a special determination result (for example, BB winning) in which the derivation of a special display result combination (for example, a symbol combination of BB) for controlling to a special game state (for example, BB) is allowed. ) Is included,
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determining means is the special decision result and the special display result combination is not derived, the special decision result Is carried over to the next game or later (for example, a process of carrying over the BB winning by the main control unit 41),
In any of the first payout state and the second payout state, a derivable game capable of deriving the special display result combination (for example, a game in which BB is won in the non-internal, a game in which the internal is lost) ) May be performed, and in the derivable game, it is more advantageous for the player that the special display result combination is not derived than the special display result combination is derived (for example, the advantage section normal and advantage). It is more advantageous not to win BB in section CZ),
In the derivable game in the first payout state, when the special display result combination is not derived, the first benefit related to the third payout state (for example, used in the point benefit lottery shown in FIG. 45B). While the point) can be given, the first privilege cannot be given when the special display result combination is derived (for example, the example shown in FIG. 22),
In the derivable game in the second payout state, when the special display result combination is not derived, the second benefit related to the third payout state (for example, promotion of the table used in the benefit lottery shown in FIG. 47). While the special display result combination is derived, the second privilege cannot be granted (for example, the example shown in FIG. 23).
The derivation control means,
In the derivable game, the specific derivation operating means (for example, the left stop switch 8L) of the plurality of derivation operating means is operated at a specific timing (for example, the timing for stopping the red 7 at the lower portion of the left reel 2L). Sometimes, a specific display result (for example, red 7 at the bottom) is led out to a specific variable display portion (for example, the left reel 2L) of the plurality of variable display portions, and then the remaining derivation operation means that is not operated. When, for example, the middle stop switch 8C and the right stop switch 8R are operated, a display result combination (for example, BB missed) in which a winning does not occur regardless of the mode of the operation (for example, operation sequence or operation timing). Derived (example shown in FIG. 17),
In the game in which the determination result of the pre-determination means is the first specific determination result (for example, common plum winning), the specific derivation operation means is at the specific timing (for example, the timing at which red 7 is stopped at the bottom of the left reel 2L). ), the specific display result (for example, red 7 at the bottom) is led to the specific variable display portion (for example, the left reel 2L), and then the remaining derivation operation means (for example, red 7) not operated (for example, red). , The middle stop switch 8C, the right stop switch 8R) is operated, the display result combination (for example, the display result combination corresponding to the first specific determination result, for example, according to the mode of the operation (for example, the operation sequence, the operation timing)). Plum 1 symbol combination) is derived (example shown in FIG. 17),
In the game in which the determination result of the pre-determination means is the second specific determination result (for example, watermelon winning), the specific derivation operation means is at the specific timing (for example, timing at which red 7 is stopped at the bottom of the left reel 2L). Is operated, the special display result (for example, replay at the bottom) is led to the specific variable display portion (for example, the left reel 2L), and then the remaining derivation operation means (for example, middle stop) not operated. When the switch 8C, the right stop switch 8R) is operated, a display result combination (for example, a watermelon symbol) corresponding to the second specific determination result is obtained according to the mode of operation (for example, operation sequence or operation timing). Combination) is derived (example shown in FIG. 18).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 22, in the normal advantageous section game, points are awarded when a BB prize is missed in the BB winning possible game, but points are not awarded when the BB prize is won. Also, as shown in FIG. 23, in the advantageous zone CZ, in the BB winning game, when the BB winning is missed, the lottery table is promoted, while when the BB winning is won, the lottery table is not promoted. In this way, when the BB prize is missed, the privilege given to each payout state is different, and the enjoyment of the game can be improved by constructing the game playability in consideration of a plurality of states. In addition, in a BB winning game, the player can be made aware that the BB winning is missed. Further, as shown in FIG. 17, when the red 7 symbol is derived from the lower part of the left reel 2L, there is a possibility that the player has won either BB or the common plum, so the symbol combination derived thereafter is On the other hand, the player can be paid attention. Further, as shown in FIG. 18, when the replay symbol is derived at the lower part of the left reel 2L, the BB winning is denied, but there is a possibility that the watermelon is won, so the symbol combination derived thereafter. The player can be paid attention to. As a result, the player's motivation to continue playing can be maintained.

(5-2) In the game in which the derivation control unit determines that the determination result of the pre-determination unit is a third specific determination result (for example, chance A win), the specific derivation operation unit determines the specific timing (for example, When the red reel 7 is operated at the bottom of the left reel 2L at a timing), the specific display result (for example, the red 7 at the bottom) is led to the specific variable display portion (for example, the left reel 2L), and then, When the remaining unoperated derivation operation means is operated, the display result combination corresponding to the third specific determination result is derived according to the mode of the operation (example shown in FIG. 17).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 17, when the red 7 symbol is derived from the lower part of the left reel 2L, it is possible that the player has won either BB, common plum, or chance A. It is possible to make the player pay attention to the symbol combination derived thereafter.

The background image is an image that the player sees most when playing a day.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 28, in the acceleration mode, as in the normal mode, the background image corresponding to the advantageous section normal is displayed in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, so that the current mode is set. In order to determine which is, the player can focus on the update mode in the map area 520.

(9-3) The specific image includes a numeric image and a moving image that moves on a path provided with a memory,
When the update value is updated by 10, the moving image moves on the route by one memory, while the numerical image is updated by 10 (for example, the example shown in FIG. 27).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 27, the update in the update image 520a is updated at 1p intervals, while the movement of the moving character on the map 520m is updated at 10p intervals. This allows the player to recognize the update value in detail by the number in the update image 520a while allowing the player to recognize the distance to the reaching point to some extent by the moving character.

(9-4) In the second mode, the update value is updated by at least the amount of movement of the moving image by one memory on the route (for example, the lottery table shown in FIG. 45C).

Specifically, 1p is set as the minimum addition point in the normal mode, but 10p is set as the minimum addition point in the addition mode. As a result, in the acceleration mode, the moving character always moves when the points are updated, so that the enjoyment of the game can be improved.

(9-5) In the first mode and the second mode, the background image is common and the effect contents are also common.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 28, in the acceleration mode, as in the normal mode, the background image corresponding to the advantageous section normal is displayed in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and the effect contents are also displayed. Since both are common, the player can be made to pay attention to the update mode in the map area 520 in order to determine which is the current mode.

(9-6) In the second mode, with a higher probability than in the first mode, an effect image advantageous to the player is displayed in the first area (for example, in the acceleration mode, in the normal mode). Than that, an effect image that is advantageous to the player is displayed in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51).

Specifically, in the acceleration mode, an effect image that informs that an effect that is not performed in the normal mode is executed and high points are added is displayed, so that the enjoyment of the game can be improved.

An image is displayed, and then, when the number image included in the specific image is updated, a number image smaller than the predetermined size and corresponding to the update is displayed near the number image (for example, FIG. 28). Example).

Specifically, when points are added, the points to be added are displayed large in the center of the screen of the liquid crystal display 51, and then the points to be added are displayed small in the map area 520. As a result, the points to be added can be easily communicated to the player.

(10-1) A gaming machine for playing a game (for example, a slot machine 1, a modified pachinko gaming machine),
Update means (for example, processing for updating points by the main control unit 41) for updating an updated value (for example, points) based on the progress of the game,
A privilege suggesting unit that suggests whether or not to grant a privilege when the updated value reaches a specific value (for example, 100, 300, 600p) (for example, a process for executing the aura effect shown in FIGS. 30 to 32). With and
The specific value is a first specific value (for example, 100p), a second specific value (for example, 300p) that arrives later than the first specific value, and a third that is later than the second specific value. With a specific value (eg 600p),
For each of the second specific value and the third specific value, when an initial value is set as the update value, an expectation degree suggestion corresponding to the degree of expectation of granting the privilege at the time of arrival (for example, The triangular image shown in FIG. 35(a) is performed,
When the grant of the privilege is not suggested when the updated value reaches the first specific value, the expectation degree suggestion in at least one of the second specific value and the third specific value, It is changed to a high degree of expectation suggestion (for example, the images of circles and double circles shown in (d1) and (d2) of FIG. 35) (for example, the example shown in FIG. 35).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 35, when the privilege is not suggested when reaching 100p, the reaching icon image corresponding to 300p or 600p changes with the effect 513e, and after the change, Changes the reaching icon image to a highly advantageous image. This allows the player who has reached 100p to continue the game while expecting the award of the privilege. In this way, the motivation for the game can be maintained. In addition, only one of the plurality of reaching points may change or both of the reaching points may change, so that the reaching icon image corresponding to 300p is not changed and the reaching icon corresponding to 600p is not changed. When only the image changes to an image with a high degree of advantage, it is possible to urge the player to play the game up to 600p, and since it is a distant target of 600p, the game can be stopped, and the player can be stopped. Can be favorably supported.

(10-2) When the initial value is set as the update value, the expectation suggestion for the second specific value is performed, and the expectation suggestion for the third specific value is performed (for example, FIG. 33 and the example shown in FIG. 34),
When the award of the privilege is not suggested when the updated value reaches the first specific value, both the expectation suggestion for the second specific value and the expectation suggestion for the third specific value are expected. When the effect of changing to a high degree of expectation suggestion is performed with an effect, and only one of the expectation degree suggestion for the second specific value and the expectation degree suggestion for the third specific value There are times when an effect of changing to a high expectation suggestion is performed with an effect (for example, the example shown in FIG. 35).

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 33 and 34, when the initial value (0) is set as the update value when the normal section is shifted to the advantageous section, the arrival icon image is displayed, and then 10p is displayed. When reaching, the reaching icon image corresponding to either 300p or 600p is changed to an image with a high degree of advantage with an effect. This allows the player to pay attention to which of the 300p and 600p reaching icon images changes to a highly advantageous image.

(11-1) A variable display unit 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,
A payout state control means for controlling the payout state (for example, a process for controlling the state by the main control section 41),
A pre-determination means for determining a display result that permits derivation (for example, a process of performing an internal lottery by the main control unit 41),
Derivation operation means (for example, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R) operated to derive the display result,
And a notification unit (for example, a process of executing a navigation by the main control unit 41 and the sub control unit 91) for notifying operation information (for example, navigation information) corresponding to the operation mode of the derivation operation unit,
The payout state includes a first payout state (for example, normal), a second payout state (for example, advantage section normal), and a third payout state (for example, advantage section AT),
The third payout state is designed such that the net increase obtained by subtracting the total value of the game value used for setting the bet number from the total value of the game value to be given is larger than that of the second payout state. (For example, the advantageous section AT has a higher payout rate than the normal advantageous section),
The notifying unit is incapable of notifying the operation information in the first payout state (for example, navigation is not normally executed), while being capable of notifying the operation information in the third payout state ( For example, navigation is executed in the advantageous section AT),
In both the second payout state and the third payout state, the update value (for example, the total value of the net increase in number, the number of exhausted games) updated based on the progress of the game is a specific value (for example, 2400, 1500 G) is reached, the state is controlled to the first payout state (for example, the state is normally controlled by satisfying a limiter condition in both the advantageous section normal and the advantageous section AT). ,
In the first payout state, the update value is not updated (for example, normally, the total value of the net added number and the count of the exhausted game number are not updated),
The payout state control means,
In the second payout state, the determination result of the pre-determining means is a first determination result (for example, middle-tier cherry 7 complete winning, middle-tier cherry character complete winning) and a second determination result (for example, 7 complete 1 winning, When any one of the character alignment is won), the state is controlled to the third payout state (for example, the processing of S60, S63, S66 shown in FIG. 44),
In the first payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determining means is the first decision result, the state is controlled to the third payout state (for example, the processes of S36 and S39 shown in FIG. 42). ),
In the first payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determining means is the second decision result, the state is controlled to the second payout state while the state is controlled to the third payout state. No (for example, the process of S40 shown in FIG. 42).

Specifically, during the advantageous zone normal, when the player wins the middle-tier cherry 7 set or the middle-tier cherry character set, or when one of the 7 sets or one character set is won, based on the result of the game by the player. The state can be controlled in the advantageous section AT. As a result, it is possible to ensure the degree of advantage during the advantageous section normal. In addition, normally, based on the result of the game by the player, the state can be controlled to the advantageous section AT when the middle tier cherry 7 or middle tier cherry character is selected. As a result, even in the normal section, the player can be expected to win the middle-tier cherry 7 or middle-tier cherry character as in the payout state during the advantageous section. Therefore, the interest in the game played by the player can be improved.

(11-2) The stay rate of the game in the first payout state is smaller than the stay rate of the game in the second payout state and the third payout state (for example, as shown in FIG. The stay rate of games in is smaller than the stay rate of games in the payout state during the advantageous section).

Specifically, the normal game stay ratio is smaller than the game stay ratio in the payout state in the advantageous section. As a result, in the payout state in the advantageous section, more games than usual are played, so that the interest of the game is improved.

(11-3) The condition for the state to shift from one of the second payout state and the third payout state to the first payout state is a first condition that is established based on the progress of the game (for example, A limiter condition) and a second condition (for example, a setting change) that is satisfied when the setting of the degree of advantage for the player is changed are included.

Specifically, in the payout state in the advantageous section, the state shifts to the normal section by changing the setting in addition to the limiter condition. As a result, when the setting is changed, it is possible to provide the player with the enjoyment of the game such as shifting the state from the normal state to the payout state in the advantageous section again.

(11-4) When the state is controlled to the third payout state based on the decision result of the pre-determining means being the first decision result, the control to the third payout state is performed. Suggestive suggestion game (for example, omen effect) is not performed (for example, as shown in FIG. 4, when the direct hit bonus is won by winning the middle-tier cherry 7 or middle-tier cherry character assembling in the normal section, the omen effect is not executed. ),
Suggestion game suggesting control to the third payout state when the state is controlled to the third payout state based on the decision result of the pre-determining means being the second decision result ( For example, an aura effect is performed (for example, as shown in FIG. 4, an aura effect is executed when a common bonus is won by winning one of 7 pieces and one character of a character in the advantage section normal).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, when the direct hit bonus is won by winning the middle row cherry 7 row or the middle row cherry character row in the normal section, the precursor effect is not executed, while the advantageous section normal is 7 rows. When the common bonus is won by winning one piece or one character set, the precursor effect is executed. As a result, in the normal section, when the direct hit bonus is won by winning the middle-tier cherry 7 series or the middle-tier cherry character series, which is a super rare role, the precursor effect is not executed and the advantageous section bonus is immediately sent. Since it is controlled to the advantageous section AT, the game can be immediately advantageous.

(11-5) A plurality of the variable display sections are provided, and a prize can be generated according to a display result combination which is a combination of display results of the plurality of variable display sections (for example, reels 2L, 2C, 2R),
Derivation control means (for example, reel control by the main control unit 41) that performs control for deriving the display result combination is further provided,
The derivation control means,
When the determination result of the pre-determination means is the first determination result, when the variable display on the specific variable display portion (for example, the left reel 2L) of the plurality of variable display portions first stops, A specific display result (for example, a cherry symbol) that is suggested for granting the privilege is derived on the specific variable display unit (for example, reel control shown in FIG. 15A),
When the determination result of the pre-determination means is the second determination result, and when the variable display in the specific variable display unit first stops, the specific display result is not derived in the specific variable display unit ( For example, the reel control shown in FIG. 16(a3),
When the determination result of the pre-determination means is either the first determination result or the second determination result, a variable display on a variable display portion (for example, the right reel 2R) different from the specific variable display portion is displayed. When first stopped, the specific display result is derived on the specific variable display section (for example, reel control shown in FIGS. 16(a1) to (c1) and 16(a2) to (c2)).

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 15(a) to 15(d), when the middle-tier cherry character alignment or the middle-tier cherry 7 alignment is won, when the left reel 2L first stops, a cherry symbol is derived in the middle tier. To do. On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 16(a3) to (c3), in the case of winning one set of 7 pieces or one piece of character arrangements, when the left reel 2L first stops, the cherry symbol is not derived in the middle row. In addition, as shown in FIGS. 16(a1) to (c1) and (a2) to (c2), the middle tier cherry character set or the middle tier cherry 7 set, or one of the 7 set or one of the character set is won However, when the right reel 2R first stops, the cherry symbol is led out in the middle of the left reel 2L. As a result, when the player hits the middle-tier cherry character group or the middle-tier cherry group 7 who wins the direct hit bonus, the player usually tends to operate first, as compared to the case where one player wins 7 sheets or one character group. When the left stop switch 8L is operated, it is easy to derive the cherry symbol in the middle tier. Therefore, in both normal and advantageous conditions, winning the middle tier cherry character or middle tier cherry 7 is left. The player can be informed at the time of the first stop operation.

(11-6) The lottery for determining whether to shift the state from the first payout state to the second payout state (for example, the advantageous section transition lottery shown in FIG. 43A) is the advance It is performed based on the allocation information (for example, a winning number) allocated to each of the determination results of the determining means,
The lottery relating to the addition of the game information used in the second payout state (for example, the point acquisition lottery shown in FIG. 43(c)) is category information assigned to each type of the determination result of the pre-determining means (for example, the lottery information). , Category flag).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 43(a), the advantageous section transition lottery is performed based on the winning combination numbers assigned to the respective lottery target winning combinations in the internal lottery, and as shown in FIG. 43(c), The point acquisition lottery relating to the award of points normally used in the advantageous section is performed based on the category flag assigned to each type of lottery target combination in the internal lottery. As a result, for the point acquisition lottery related to the award of points used in the advantageous section normal, by using the category flag assigned for each type of the lottery target combination, it is possible to reduce the number of determination conditions than the combination number. The lottery design can be simplified.

(11-7) In the game in which the state is determined to shift from the first payout state to the second payout state, specific information (for example, points) updated in the game in the second payout state. Is started (for example, as shown in FIG. 34, the update of the update value is displayed in the game in which the advantageous section is won).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 34, in the game in which the state is determined to shift from the normal state to the payout state in the advantageous section, the update of the update value in the payout state in the advantageous section is started. .. In this way, in the game in which the advantageous section has been won, the notification of points starts in the updated image 520a, so that it is possible for the player to easily recognize that the payout state has transitioned to the advantageous section.

(11-8) When the setting of the degree of advantage for the player is changed in either the second payout state or the third payout state, the second payout state and the third payout state While the process for shifting the state to the first payout state is performed from any one of the above, the lottery is not performed (for example, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 39, the setting is changed to be in the advantageous section. (While the state shifts from the payout state to normal, lottery is not done),
In the first payout state, the decision result of the predetermination means is a condition for the state to transition from the first payout state to the second payout state (for example, winning combination number 7 ~ 41), a process for shifting the state from the first payout state to the second payout state is performed, and a lottery is performed (for example, in FIG. 42). As shown, the state transitions from the normal to the payout state in the advantageous section, and the point acquisition lottery is performed).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 39, when the setting is changed, no lottery is performed such as determining the initial value of the digested game count until the ceiling game count is reached. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 42, when a winning combination corresponding to winning combination numbers 7 to 41, which is a winning combination shifting combination, is won by internal lottery, the state shifts from the normal state to the payout state in the winning section. And the point acquisition lottery. With this, there is no lottery at the time of changing the setting, and after that, the point that is usually used in the payout state in the advantageous section is decided by lottery based on the result of the game, so the interest of the game is increased. Can be improved.

A payout state control means for controlling the payout state (for example, a process for controlling the payout state by the main controller 41);
A pre-determination means for determining a display result that permits derivation (for example, a process of performing an internal lottery by the main control unit 41),
Derivation operation means (for example, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R) operated to derive the display result,
And a notification unit (for example, a process of executing a navigation by the main control unit 41 and the sub control unit 91) for notifying operation information (for example, navigation information) corresponding to the operation mode of the derivation operation unit,
The payout state includes a first payout state (for example, normal), a second payout state (for example, advantage section normal), and a third payout state (for example, advantage section AT),
The third payout state is designed such that the net increase obtained by subtracting the total value of the game value used for setting the bet number from the total value of the game value to be given is larger than that of the second payout state. (For example, the advantageous section AT has a higher payout rate than the normal advantageous section),
The notifying unit is incapable of notifying the operation information in the first payout state (for example, navigation is not normally executed), while being capable of notifying the operation information in the third payout state ( For example, navigation is executed in the advantageous section AT),
In both the second payout state and the third payout state, the update value (for example, the total value of the net increase in number, the number of exhausted games) updated based on the progress of the game is a specific value (for example, 2400, 1500 G) is reached, the state is controlled to the first payout state (for example, the state is normally controlled by satisfying a limiter condition in both the advantageous section normal and the advantageous section AT). ,
In the first payout state, the update value is not updated (for example, normally, the total value of the net added number and the count of the exhausted game number are not updated),
In the first payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determining means is a specific decision result (for example, middle-tier cherry tree 7 winning combination), the first lottery related to the control to the third payout state (for example, (AT lottery) is performed (for example, the process of S135 shown in FIG. 51, AT lottery shown in FIG. 52D),
In the second payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determining means is the specific decision result, a second lottery (e.g., advantageous lottery) regarding control to the third payout state is performed (for example, , The processing of S155 shown in FIG. 53, the advantageous lottery shown in FIG. 54(d),
The first lottery is more advantageous to the player than the second lottery (for example, the number of judgment values of the direct hit AT win in the AT lottery when the middle tier 7 match or the middle tier cherry character match is won in the normal case) , Which is larger than the number of judgment values for the AT winning in the advantageous lottery when the middle cherry 7 set and the middle cherry character set are won during the advantageous section normal).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 52(d) and FIG. 54(d), the AT lottery when the middle-tier cherry 7 assortment (role number 38) and the middle-tier cherry character assortment (role number 39) are won during normal operation The number of judgment values of the direct hit AT win in is higher than the number of judgment values of the AT win in the advantageous lottery when the middle tier cherry 7 combination (role number 38) and the middle tier cherry character alignment (role number 39) are won during the advantage section normal.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 52(d) and FIG. 54(d), the AT lottery when the middle-tier cherry 7 assortment (role number 38) and the middle-tier cherry character assortment (role number 39) are won during normal operation The number of judgment values of the direct hit AT win in is higher than the number of judgment values of the AT win in the advantageous lottery when the middle tier cherry 7 combination (role number 38) and the middle tier cherry character alignment (role number 39) are won during the advantage section normal. Many. As described above, the AT lottery during the normal period has a higher probability of being controlled to the advantageous period AT than the advantageous lottery during the advantageous period normal. Therefore, when the middle cherry 7 set or the middle cherry character set is won during the normal period, , It is possible to give a special feeling to the player.

(12-6) The determination result of the pre-determination means includes a predetermined determination result different from the specific determination result (for example, winning of a general winning combination corresponding to winning combination numbers 8 to 31).
The predetermined determination result is more likely to be a determination result of the pre-determination means than the specific determination result (for example, general roles corresponding to the combination numbers 8 to 31 are more likely than the middle-tier cherry 7 assembling or the middle-tier cherry character assembling). There is a high probability that you will win in the internal lottery),
In the first payout state, when the determination result of the pre-determining means is the predetermined determination result, a lottery relating to control to the third payout state is performed (for example, shown in FIG. 52(d)). Regular AT lottery),
In the second payout state, when the decision result of the pre-determining means is the predetermined decision result, the lottery relating to the control to the third payout state is not performed (for example, in FIG. 54(d)). Normal advantageous lottery during the advantageous section shown).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 52(d) and FIG. 54(d), in the normal AT lottery, when the general winning combination corresponding to the winning combination numbers 8 to 31 is won, the advantageous section AT is controlled. However, in the advantageous lottery during the advantage section normal, when the general winning combination corresponding to the winning combination numbers 8 to 31 is won, the lottery for controlling the advantage section AT is not performed. In this way, when the general role is won, the AT lottery during the normal period is performed, while the advantage lottery during the normal period is not performed, so when the general role is won during the normal period, the player Can give a special feeling to.

(12-7) In the first lottery, the lottery table is different depending on the setting of the degree of advantage for the player (for example, the normal AT lottery shown in FIG. 52(d)),
In the second lottery, the lottery table does not differ according to the setting of the degree of advantage for the player (for example, normal advantageous lottery in the advantageous section shown in FIG. 54(d)).

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 52(d) and FIG. 54(d), in the AT lottery during normal operation, the lottery table differs depending on the set value, whereas in the advantageous lottery during the advantage zone normal operation, , The lottery table does not differ according to the set value. As a result, the player is made aware of the set value in the normal state, while the player is allowed to play the game without being aware of the set value in the payout state in the advantageous section in which the stay ratio is higher than usual. be able to.
