On the other hand, there is a special game (AT or ART) set so that game tokens increase on average, and in AT machines today, in particular, 8 tokens can be acquired in one game on average for 3 charged tokens, and about 100 tokens increase in 20 AT games. When a sub control part receives notification of hopper errors during the AT game, an error sound is selected from a plurality of error sounds in accordance with the number of game tokens, and voice, "Awesome", is generated by the error sound.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

The present invention relates to a game machine (including a pachinko machine) such as a pachislot machine that uses a medal as a game medium and a slot machine (rotary body type game machine) called a pachilot that uses a pachinko ball as a game medium.

Further, the present invention provides control steps or control procedures for realizing the game method as semiconductor memory, LD (laser disc), HD (hard disc), CD (compact disc), DVD (digital versatile disc). Alternatively, it is related to a program (for example, game software) recorded on an information storage medium such as a digital video disc) or a Blu-ray disc, or a game application itself downloaded using the Internet.

In recent years, games using a rotating body-type gaming machine called a pachislot machine have been actively performed as entertainment in conventional pachinko halls and pachislot-only stores. In addition, in video game machines installed in game facilities, etc., and in general household PCs and game machines via the Internet, substitute coins and credits (that is, "game media") are used to simulate spinning-type games. A simulation game is being played.

For example, in the normal game of the above-mentioned rotating drum type game machine, when the player operates a start lever after inserting a predetermined number (predetermined amount) of game medals (game medium), a bonus combination is provided at the operation timing. A small role or a replay role (replaying role) internal lottery (hereinafter, also referred to as "internal lottery") is executed, and a plurality of rotating drums (in most cases, 3 or rarely 4 reel drums) are executed. ) Is rotated from top to bottom, and a plurality of symbols arranged on the rotating cylinder (usually, these plurality of symbols are arranged or drawn on a reel tape and attached on the outer circumference of each drum). Along with starting a variable display game that fluctuates, the player operates the stop button corresponding to each drum, and the bell, watermelon, and cherry of the small winning combination (the role in which the number of payouts of the game medium is determined) is internally won. When symbols such as, etc. are displayed on the valid line in a predetermined combination, a prize is won and about 1 to 15 game medals are paid out, whereas the replay symbol is displayed on the valid line and replay (replay). ) Is activated (hereinafter, also referred to as "winning"), the next normal game can be performed without inserting the game medal (or by inserting the number of the inserted number in the previous game as it is). It will be possible. If you miss a small role, you will get 0 payouts and no medals will be paid out.

In particular, in the case of a rotating cylinder type game machine called A type, a big bonus (1st class BB or 2nd class BB) is internally won based on the result of the internal lottery of the normal game, and it is specified by the individual stop operation of the reel drum. Big bonus game mode (BB game mode: role), which is the most advantageous game mode for the player when the symbols (for example, 7 red symbols, 7 blue symbols, and BAR symbols) are aligned on the effective line and stopped and displayed. You can get a lot of game medals at once by rushing into the operation of the object continuous operation device). In addition, if the regular bonus is won and the bar symbols are aligned on the effective line as specific symbols, the regular bonus game (RB game) is executed, and although it is not as good as the BB game, a corresponding game medal can be obtained. In any case, the establishment of these bonus games is the greatest concern for the player in the rotating game. When the bonus game is won or released as a result of executing the internal lottery, a specific symbol (7 symbols or bar symbol) is stored by setting a bonus flag in a data storage area such as RAM or RWM. The flag will be carried over to the subsequent variable display games until all the flags are collected.

By the way, the conventional rotating body type game machine (Unit 4) has a relatively high gambling trait, and in order to suppress it, the Act on Regulation of Customs Business, etc. and Optimization of Business (Final Amendment: May 2005) The 30th Law No. 55) was enforced and applied to the latest rotating body type game machine called No. 5.

For example, in the Unit 5 revolving game machine, the ball output rate (short-term, medium-term, long-term) is very finely defined by the rules, and in the big bonus game (BB game), the number of game medals, etc. obtained is determined. It ends when the number of cards exceeds a predetermined number (for example, 360 or 480), and in the regular bonus game, although it is not as good as that of the BB game, it ends when about 100 or more cards are obtained. In particular, as a result of the bonus stock function, which can be said to be the greatest feature of the conventional rotating body type game machine (Unit 4), is also prohibited by the same rule, bonus roles are continuously released (so-called bonus consecutive chan). It became impossible to play, and the playability and gambling were extremely reduced.

However, even in such a strict regulatory situation, some deregulation has been done, and as a result of new ingenuity, a slot machine equipped with an ART function (assist replay time function) has been developed. It was. This ART function shifts to a high-probability replay state where replays are easy to win, and aims at the symbol stop operation procedure (the operation order of the stop switch and the color of the bonus symbol) to win the small winning combination internally. It is a function that assists (assists) winning a prize by notifying (including the operation timing to be operated) by liquid crystal display, voice, LED, etc., and is currently the mainstream of the No. 5 slot machine.

Further, an AT machine has been developed in which the bonus combination (type 2 BB) is internally won and the winning probability of the re-game during the normal game and the special game is increased. The AT machine is equipped with an assist bonus (third bonus) that activates the assist function, and when the AT bonus is won, when the push order small winning combination is internally won, the correct push order is notified. Therefore, the small winning combination with the largest number of payouts is taken among the plurality of small winning combinations that are simultaneously elected. On the other hand, the assist function is not activated during normal games, the player cannot know the correct operation procedure when the push order small winning combination is won, and a penalty occurs when an irregular push (a push method other than the left 1st) is performed. Therefore, the number of medals (balls) possessed decreases as the number of games is increased.

Then, in a bonus game based on a bonus combination (type 1 RB or type 1 BB), a technique is registered and known that the total number of payouts is less than the total number of input, resulting in a decrease in medals in the bonus game. (See Patent Document 6).

Further, in Patent Document 1, the pachi-slot (1) includes a hopper error detection unit (44) for determining whether or not the number of medals housed in the hopper (40) is 15 or more. This pachislot (1) selects one of a plurality of predetermined types of sounds as an error sound according to the discrimination result by the hopper error detection unit (44), and selects the selected error sound as a speaker (9L, 9R). The technology to output from is open to the public.

JP 2009-261689 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-172753 JP 2012-059841 Japanese Patent No. 5900998 Japanese Patent No. 5780535 JP 2013-090642 Pachislot Super Blackjack 2 (manufactured by Net) Pachislot Cinderella Braid 2 (manufactured by Net)

By the way, the gambling of the No. 5 rotating body type game machine at the beginning of the rule was very low, but as a result of the improvement, the average net increase in the number of ART machines and AT machines per game was increased to 2.5 to 3. As a result, the ball ejection performance was better than that of the No. 4 spinning machine. And since some models have produced a total of more than 30,000 copies in one day's game, the rules have been newly revised to reduce gambling and prevent fraud, and the No. 6 rotating body type game machine is now available. It is being considered. In particular, in the Unit 6 rotating body type game machine, since the ART function is managed by the main control unit, it is necessary to compress the data capacity of the main program.

Further, although it is usually 21 frames, the same main program cannot be used for the stop control of a game machine equipped with a reel of 20 frames, which is one frame less, and it is necessary to reduce and compress the data capacity itself as much as possible. Further, it is necessary to improve the operability.

In the development of the No. 6 rotating cylinder type game machine having an assist function, the present invention includes technical ingenuity in the game, unique program processing (lottery processing in the instruction game), and a prize for a penetrating bonus combination and a push order small combination. Display mode, especially special game (ART and AT) granting technology using reduced RB (type 1 accessory), devising stop control, and lottery method to activate unprecedented instruction function (assist bonus lottery) And the extra lottery) will not run out of interest for the player. For example, the extra effect using the special button will increase the fun, increase the playability without giving the player a sense of discomfort, and compress the data capacity of the main program. The purpose is to provide a game machine or the like that can be played. That is, it is an object of the present invention to provide the elemental technology indispensable for the No. 6 reel-type game machine with respect to the stop control of the game machine equipped with 20 reels.

In particular, in order to improve the operability, it is an object of the present invention to provide the elemental technology of the No. 6 rotating cylinder type game machine which can eliminate the omission even if the pouring operation is performed. In particular, there is only one voice for one model of hopper error. For example, it just generates the voice "Clerk, hopper error."

In addition, there is an advantageous game that is more advantageous than the normal game and can activate the instruction function, and when controlling the transition between the normal game and the advantageous game, a large wave of balls is generated by referring to the number of remaining RT games. The purpose is to provide a game machine that can be made. Also, depending on whether the bonus combination 1 or the bonus combination 2 is internally won, the stop control of the push order small combination is changed to make the base flat or rough, and the wave of the ball is intentionally made. The purpose is to provide a game machine that can be changed or adjusted (providing a game machine with a new taste). If it continues to the extension limit, a suggestion effect will be performed. The purpose is to provide a new anti-goto method.

In the gaming machine of the present invention according to claim 1, in order to achieve the above object, a plurality of reels in which a plurality of types of symbols are arranged on an outer peripheral surface, and a plurality of types of combinations including a small combination and a replay combination are appropriate or not. A combination determining means for determining a medal, a reel controlling means for controlling the plurality of reels to be rotated for each game and individually stopping the corresponding rotating reels based on a stop operation, and a state in which the plurality of reels are stopped. Then, based on the fact that the symbol combination indicating the winning form determined in advance for each winning combination is displayed on the valid line, the winning determination means for determining that the winning combination has won, and the winning when the small winning combination wins. A means for determining the number of grants to be granted based on the dividend of the small winning combination, a means for paying out the game medals for storing the game medals and paying out the determined number of game medals, and the determined grant An error sound generating means for generating an error sound selected from a plurality of error sounds when a number of game medals cannot be paid out is provided, and the game medals are reduced on average in the game. There are a normal game set to and a special game set so that the number of game medals increases on average, and the number of game medals acquired during the special game is accumulated and counted, and the error sound generating means is described above. An error sound is selected from a plurality of error sounds according to the number of game medals, and the error sound is generated.

According to the game machine according to the present invention, the hopper error sound changes according to the number of game medals acquired during the AT game, so that the frustration caused by the hopper error sound can be eliminated and the number of game medals acquired can be appealed to the surroundings. ..
In particular, there is only one voice in one model. For example, it just generates the voice "Clerk, hopper error."

According to the game machine according to the present invention, it is possible to perform a pouring operation, and if a rare small role is missed, the operation of the stop button cannot be pressed by the pouring, so the probability of dropping is extremely reduced. Can be made to.

According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, the advantageous game that is more advantageous than the normal game and capable of activating the instruction function ends with 2400 balls or 1500 games, and all the advantageous sections related to the assist function and the like. Even if the information is initialized, the number of remaining games in RT is not initialized, so a large wave of balls can be created by drawing a lottery regarding the instruction function with reference to the number of remaining games in RT (a new game). Providing the machine). If you continue to the extension limit, the suggestion effect of the set value will be performed, so the interest will increase. Since the addition processing is performed, there is an effect that the lottery table becomes unnecessary.

According to the game machine according to the present invention, the same main program can be used for the stop control of a game machine having a reel of 20 frames, which is one frame less than the normal 21 frames, so that the data capacity itself is small and compressed. It has the effect of being able to.

In addition, since the transition to the special game is determined based on the number of non-winning small wins in the decreasing bonus game, there is an effect that the number of balls to be played can be reduced more than ever in the bonus game.

According to the game machine according to the present invention, the bonus combination includes a big bonus combination, a first regular bonus combination and a second regular bonus combination, and either the first regular bonus combination or the second regular bonus combination in the big bonus game. Since the number of winnings can be different depending on whether or not the player wins, it has the effect of increasing playability and interest.

According to the gaming machine according to the present invention, the actual bonus (particularly, the penetrating type) and the ART bonus are provided, and the display method and stop control method of the winning form of the push order small winning combination, the ART bonus and the additional lottery method, and the advantageous section Since the lottery method of (notification game section) and the winning notification and instruction method are devised, the interest is not exhausted for the player, the fun is increased by the original addition production, and the data capacity of the main program is compressed or reduced. Is possible.

In addition, the problem of being reproduced from the beginning of the directed image is eliminated. Then, as a technical ingenuity in the game or a unique program process, it is possible to efficiently and correctly control ON / OFF of the external signal 4 (signal during ART) of the external centralized terminal board. Even after conforming to the test, a new anti-goto method can be provided without changing the main program.

Definition:
Replay refers to a combination of patterns that enables the next play to be played without betting on a pachislot machine. The name on the pachislot certification rules (rules for certification of gaming machines and certification of types) is replay (saiyuugi). In addition, the "replay combination" used in the claims may be a group replay combination in which a plurality of replay combinations 1 to replay combination n are internally elected at the same time, and any one of the replay combinations has the highest priority (bonus combination). It is designed to work (with priority). That is, the "re-game" can be performed without inserting a game medal or the like (including using the game medal for the game by operating a button or other device related to the storage device). Refers to a game.

"Activation" is a wording including a state in which a symbol related to the re-game or a combination of symbols related to the accessory continuous operation device and the like is displayed on the effective line, and is a "operation" in the small winning combination in which the game medium is paid out. It is synonymous with "winning". Therefore, in the present specification, it may be used for convenience as a "winning prize" for a replay game or a "winning prize" for a bonus role.

Basic example:
As an example of the gaming machine and the like according to the present invention, a rotating cylinder type gaming machine using a medal as a game medium will be taken up, and this embodiment will explain in detail the basic configuration and basic operation of the rotating cylinder type gaming machine.

FIG. 1 is a schematic front view of a rotating cylinder type gaming machine (FIG. 1 (A) is an overall view, and FIG. 1 (B) is a partially enlarged view). FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the rotating cylinder type game machine and a timing chart of credit insertion.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a rotating drum type gaming machine main body generally called a “pachislot machine”, which is roughly classified into a housing 1a (see FIG. 2) containing a rotating drum (reel drum portion 2) and a front door 1b.

The front door 1b is the main part that can be said to be the face of a rotating body type game machine, and by adding various platings to the resin material in order to give a high-class feeling, the appearance is given a gorgeous and profound feeling. Two upper and lower transparent panels 22 are fitted on the front surface of the front door 1b, and various designs are applied.

Lights in green (third color). However, if the medal cannot be inserted, the light may be turned off.

The medals inserted from the medal insertion slot are counted by a medal sorting device (or also referred to as a "selector", not shown), and the number of normally inserted medals is added to display the number of inserted medals LED4a of the LED block 4. Alternatively, it is displayed on the medal storage number display LED 4b.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a settlement button, which is operated when the medal storage device (not shown) is activated and released, and when the inserted medals and the stored medals (credits) are paid out and settled.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a cross key, which is composed of four switches arranged vertically and horizontally and a decision button in the center. The up and down or left and right switches cannot be pressed at the same time. It is operated when viewing the game history information by up / down / left / right operation or determination operation, or when displaying the combination symbol table or payout table of the winning combination on the display effect device 11. A 1-bet button (not shown) is provided in the vicinity of the cross key 7, and is used when one stored medal of the medal storage device is inserted for playing a game. In some cases, the 1-bet button is not provided.

Reference numeral 8 denotes a max bet button (MAX bet button or insertion switch), which is specified according to the game state such as when inserting the maximum number of 3 stored medals of the medal storage device for playing a game or during a bonus game. It is used when the maximum number of inserted sheets (1 to 3 sheets) is inserted. An LED is provided inside the max bet button 8 so that it lights up when the max bet button 8 can be operated.

Reference numeral 9 denotes a start lever (a part of the rotating cylinder rotation starting device), which is used to rotate (start) the drum portions 2 all at once after inserting a predetermined number of game medals necessary for playing a game. A game start display LED is provided around the start lever 9 and lights up when the start operation is possible. Further, when the start lever 9 sets the step of the ball output rate, the start lever 9 is a desired set value selected from the step values 1 to 6 (or a 4-step jump number of 1, 3, 5, 7 or the like). Used to confirm.

Reference numeral 10 denotes a stop button portion (also referred to as a “stop switch” as a synonymous name), which is used to stop the rotating drum portion 2.

When the rotation of the three drums of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c reaches a predetermined speed (about 80 rotations / minute) and the stop button portion 10 becomes operable, the stop button 10a stops. The LEDs built into the button 10b and the stop button 10c are lit. Further, when the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, and the right stop button 10c are used as the three direction input means, they can correspond to the left direction, the up direction, and the right direction input, respectively.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a display effect device composed of an FPD (flat panel display) such as an LCD (liquid crystal display), a PDP (plasma display panel), or an organic EL (electroluminescence), and various image effects related to the spinning game. And the necessary information can be announced. Regardless of whether or not special eyeglasses are used, display effect devices capable of stereoscopic display have recently been manufactured at low cost, and 7 symbols and the like are produced in the tempai state (reach state) and the jackpot state. Amusement machines that employ a 3D display device that pops out images are becoming mainstream.

The left and right sides of the display effect device 11 are areas where various gimmicks (driving accessories) are provided according to the model specifications. For example, a pistol accessory 50 is arranged on the right side and a roulette accessory 51 is arranged on the left side. ..

Reference numeral 12 denotes a speaker unit, which is composed of four speakers, an upper left speaker 12a, an upper right speaker 12b, a lower left speaker 12c, and a lower right speaker 12d, and is changing sound effects and stage setting values according to various effects, or the front door. An error sound (warning sound) is generated when 1b is open or when a trouble occurs. When a serious trouble (selector error, hopper error or RAM error, but door open is not included) occurs, the error display LED 4f lights up with a warning sound. This hopper error occurs when the required number of medals stored in the medal payout device 18 cannot be paid out. For example, when a bell with eight payouts wins, the main control unit 100 pays out only three, and even if it retries multiple times (for example, three times) to pay out the remaining five, all the remaining five are paid out. If the payout cannot be made, a hopper error is generated and the sub-control unit 160 is notified. There is a normal game in which the number of game medals is set to decrease on average, and when only 1.5 cards can be obtained in one game for 3 inserted cards (when 1.5 cards are reduced on average). ), 50 game medals worth 1000 yen will be lost in about 33.3 games. On the other hand, there is a special game (AT or ART) that is set so that the number of game medals increases on average, and especially in recent AT machines, an average of 8 cards are acquired (or 1) in one game for every 3 cards input. It is possible to increase by 5 cards on average in the game), and increase by about 100 cards in 20 AT games.

The main control unit 100 accumulates and counts the number of game medals acquired during the AT game. For example, if 3 cards are put into the first game of AT game and 8 cards are obtained by winning a small role in the bell, the number of game medals accumulated is 5 because the number of medals is increased by 5. If 3 cards are put into the second game and 6 cards are obtained by winning a small watermelon role, the number of game medals accumulated is 8 because the number of medals is increased by 3. If three medals are put into the third game and one is obtained by winning one small role, the number of game medals accumulated is six because the number is reduced by two. The number of game medals acquired during the special game is continuously counted, and the main control unit 100 notifies the sub control unit 160 of the number of game medals. Since the main control unit 100 notifies the number of input and the number of payouts during the AT game, the sub control unit 160 can accumulate and count the number of game medals acquired during the special game.

The sub control unit 160 is notified of the number of game medals by the main control unit 100, selects an error sound from a plurality of error sounds according to the number of game medals acquired during the AT game, and selects the error sound. Generates an error sound. For example, as an error sound selection table, if the number of game medals acquired is 500 or less, "It is a hopper empty error", if 501 or more to 1000 or less, "Do your best, still more", if 1001 or more to 2000 or less, "It is a hopper empty error". "It's amazing", "I put out a lot" with 2001 or more and 2400 or less is stored in ROM 101. When the sub-control unit 160 receives a notification of a hopper error from the main control unit 100 during an AT game, the sub-control unit 160 selects an error sound from a plurality of error sounds according to the number of acquired game medals and generates this error sound. Let me. Assuming that the number of acquired game medals is 1500, the sub-control unit 160 refers to the error sound selection table and makes an error sound "Wow" corresponding to the number of game medals 1500 (1001 or more to 2000 or less). Select and generate the sound "Wow" by this selected error sound.

Reference numeral 13 denotes a game state display LED unit, which includes an upper state display LED 13a (also referred to as a top lamp) provided on the upper part of the display effect device 11, an upper left state display LED 13b and an upper right state display LED 13c provided on both side surfaces, and a middle left. It is composed of a state display LED 13d, a right middle state display LED 13e, a lower left state display LED 13f, a lower right state display LED 13g, and a middle lower state display LED 13h, and various light effects can be effectively performed. Further, when the step setting value is being changed, the front door 1b is open, or a trouble occurs, the blinking is repeated as a warning display.

Since the game status display LED units 13 (13a to 13h) are arranged so as to substantially go around the outer circumference of the front door 1b, the colorful light is not interrupted to the player, and the outer peripheral edge portion is swirled around. It is possible to effectively produce a rotating light effect. In particular, the upper state display LED 13a provided at the upper center position of the front door 1b (the upper center position on the front surface of the game machine body) is called a top lamp, and is unique to the rare small winning combination that is internally won or won. It emits light in color and plays a central role in the light production that informs the player of the winning role and so on to arouse a sense of expectation.

Reference numeral 14 denotes a special button, which is information required according to various games displayed on the display effect device 11 and its image effect (for example, increase in power level gauge, display of bonus formation symbol, machine gun operation of fighter aircraft, etc. Input information such as the bomb drop or the movement direction of the characters and the power-up) is input by the player himself / herself once or repeatedly. The information input by the special button 14 is given to the sub-board (sub-block) described later and is used only for various video and sound effects, and therefore does not affect the result of the game. ..

Reference numeral 15 denotes a saucer, and the game medals paid out from the medal payout device 18 (see FIG. 2) are ejected from the medal payout outlet 16, and up to several hundred medals can be received.

Reference numeral 19 denotes a door keyhole, which is used to open the front door 1b of the rotating cylinder type game machine main body 1 with the door key, to release the stopped state (a state in which the operation for the medal type game is disabled), and to cancel the game due to an error. Used when canceling.

Reference numeral 20 denotes a return button (formally referred to as a “return button for jamming inserted medals”), in which game medals packed in a game medal selector (not shown) through which the game medals inserted in the medal insertion unit 5 pass are inserted. Used when returning from the medal payment exit 16.

Here, referring to FIG. 2, a drum portion 2 and a medal payout device 18 (medal hopper 18) are arranged below the drum portion 2 in the central portion of the housing 1a of the rotating drum type gaming machine main body 1. The medal payout device 18 can store up to about 1000 medals.

A reflector 17 is provided at the upper right portion of the housing 1a, and a photo sensor is provided at a corresponding position of the front door 1b. When the front door 1b is closed, the LED light emitted from the photo sensor is reflected. While it is reflected by the plate 17 and detected by the phototransistor, the reflected light is not detected in the open state, so that the open / closed state of the front door 1b can be detected.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a power supply unit, and when the power switch 21c is turned on, power is supplied to each circuit block, and after initial checks and initial settings, a variable display game can be played.

Reference numeral 21a is a setting key switch (also referred to as a setting change permission switch), which is used for step setting operation of the payout rate and confirmation of the step setting value. By inserting the operation key into the keyhole 21d and rotating it, the state can be changed from OFF to ON or vice versa.

Reference numeral 21b is an error release switch, which is used when setting the stage of the ball output rate or when canceling the cancellation of the game due to an error. The step setting value of the payout rate is displayed by the medal payout number display LED 4c, the value is incremented by 1 each time the error release switch 21b is pressed, and after the "6" display, the value returns to "1" and the turnaround display is performed. ..

21e is a confirmation switch, and medals are stored for the game ratio (game ratio) of advantageous sections that are advantageous for the player, such as actual bonuses (BB, RB), ATs that activate the assist function, ARTs, pseudo bonuses, chance zones, etc. It is used when displaying on either the number display LED 4b or the medal payout number display LED 4c.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram of the control circuit system of the rotating cylinder type game machine.

The control circuit system is roughly divided into a main block (main board: part not surrounded by a broken line) and a sub block (sub board: part surrounded by a broken line), and the main block controls the game result and the game progress. On the other hand, the sub-block controls various effects that attract the player's interest and interest, such as the notification and display of the game progress and the internal lottery result. In the sub-block, when the assist function managed by the main block is activated, a small winning combination (a small winning combination for the purpose of winning) or a stop operation procedure for avoiding a fall replay (operation order of the stop button section 10). And operation timing).

Reference numeral 100 denotes a main control unit, which is an integrated one-chip microcomputer (for example, LEM50A-P manufactured by ELTEC) equipped with a microprocessor having a built-in CPU, and controls a predetermined data table area or the entire device. A ROM 101 that stores a control program that describes the above, and a RAM 102 (RWM: also called a rewritable memory) that temporarily stores information necessary for control by forming counters, registers, etc., and includes not only an internal RAM but also an external RAM. .), Various registers, counters, etc. are provided. As will be described later, this RAM 102 is stored by a RAM backup power supply (power supply capacitor on the main board) that is constantly supplied via the power connector even when the power switch 28c is turned off or the power cord is unplugged. All control data is retained, but if the power connector itself is unplugged, no power will be supplied, so the control data will be erased (all clear or reset to 0) or meaningless information (indefinite information). Become.

The main control unit 100 has a start SW sensor 110 (start switch sensor 110), three stop button sensors 120, a medal detection sensor 130, and a bet button via an I / 0 port (not shown) or a data bus. A sensor 140, a stage setting unit 150, a payout sensor 18a, a confirmation switch 21e, and a door abnormality signal output device 113 are connected, and the main control unit 100 is configured to be able to receive input signals from these. In particular, the main control unit 100 outputs all or a part of the various input sensor signals to the sub control unit 160 in the ON state (1 information) or the OFF state (0 information), and the sub control unit 160 also outputs. Various errors can be detected. However, various sensor signals may be directly input to the sub-control unit 160.

Further, the main control unit 100 is connected to the drum unit 2, the medal payout device 18, the display LED block 4, and the external centralized terminal plate 170 via an I / 0 port (not shown) or a data bus. The main control unit 100 is configured to be able to control these various devices by transmitting and receiving input / output signals. Eight external centralized terminal board signals are output from the external centralized terminal board 170, and the specifications are as follows: output terminal 1 is a medal insertion signal, output terminal 2 is a medal payout signal, output terminal 3 is an external signal 1 (RB), and output. Terminal 4 is external signal 2 (BB), output terminal 5 is external signal 3 (unused), output terminal 6 is relay common, output terminal 7 is external signal 4 (ART signal), output terminal 8 is external signal 5 (external signal 5) Error signal).

The main control unit 100 outputs information necessary for totalizing and managing the operating status of a game machine at a pachislot store or the like from the external centralized terminal board 170, but does not receive any information from the external centralized terminal board 170. Absent. The signals output by the main control unit 100 to the outside include a medal insertion signal, a medal payout signal, an external output signal 1 (for example, an RBB signal), an external output signal 2 (for example, an ART signal), and an external output signal 3 (for example, an ART signal). Unused or type 2 BB signal), relay common, external output signal 4 (for example, an error signal indicating that various errors have occurred), and external output signal 5 (for example, door opening error signal). In particular, the RBB signal is an actual bonus combination (actual bonus combination), while the ART signal is an assist bonus combination (called a "third bonus combination"), which is a special role in which assist information is notified. Not only is the hall computer (external device 1) aggregated and managed, but it is also output to the data counter (external device 2) installed near the top of the pachislot machine, giving the player the main information (number of games) in the pachislot game. , BB number of times, ART number of times, ball ejection information, etc.). The meaning of the external output signal can be changed as appropriate depending on the model specifications.

The main control unit 100 internally extracts one of the random numbers (values 0 to 65535) continuously generated by the built-in random number generation unit 103 in accordance with the operation of the start lever 9 of the player. A lottery is executed, and the drum portion 2 (left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c), which is a three-row (plurality of rows) of symbols on which a plurality of (usually 20 or 21) symbols are drawn. The symbol variation display game is started by rotating. For example, in this random number lottery, any of the small winning combination with a payout such as bell, cherry, watermelon, or plum is internally won (or a plurality of small winning combination is internally won at the same time), and the player stops the stop button unit 10. Then, the main control unit 100 individually stops the drum unit 2 at a predetermined position based on the lottery result and the stop operation timing according to the operation order. As a result, if the predetermined symbols are displayed side by side on any of the effective lines set in the window portion 3, the prize is won. However, the number of effective lines is not limited to five, and may change depending on the number of medals inserted, or may be increased or decreased to one or more as appropriate according to the design specifications and the gaming state.

The main control unit 100 stores in the RAM 102 the total number of games executed and the number of games in an advantageous section that is advantageous for the player, such as a pseudo-bonus, and the confirmation switch 21e is operated with the front door 1b open. In this case, (the number of games in the advantageous section) x 100 for the (total number of games) is calculated and displayed on either the medal storage number display LED 4b or the medal payout number display LED 4c. For example, if the total number of games is 12345 games and the number of games in the advantageous section is 8000 games, the game ratio in the advantageous section is about 64.803%, but the last digit is rounded off to "65". Is lit to display.

A sub control unit 160 is connected to the main control unit 100 via an I / 0 port (not shown) or a data bus, and control data (for example, coin insertion data, etc.) necessary for various control of subblocks is connected. The lottery result, winning status data, stage setting value data, data indicating the switch operation state of the stage setting unit 150, etc.) are output to the sub-control unit 160.

Like the main control unit 100, the sub control unit 160 is an integrated one-chip microcomputer equipped with a microprocessor having a built-in CPU, and includes a ROM 161 that stores a control program that describes a control procedure for the entire subblock. A counter, a timer, a register, and the like are formed, and a RAM 162 and the like for temporarily storing information necessary for control received from the main control unit 100 are provided. A plurality of BGM (background music) data are stored in this ROM 161. Especially during a bonus game, a specially arranged BGM is arranged according to the production scene in order to raise the player's feelings. Selected and played as appropriate. It is not necessary to provide the main control unit 100 and the sub control unit 160 separately, and it is possible to use one control unit. However, since the capacity of the ROM 101 is limited, the sub control unit 160 is generally provided. ing.

The sub-control unit 160 includes a display effect device 11 (including the display effect control unit 11b), a speaker unit 12, a game status display LED unit 13, and a cross key sensor via an I / 0 port (not shown) or a data bus. The 111 and the special button sensor 112 are connected, and the sub-control unit 160 can receive input signals from each of these devices and output necessary data and signals to perform various controls. In particular, an external RAM 163 for an update program is connected to the sub-control unit 160, and can be updated by downloading an error generation program by communicating with a manufacturer server (external device) using Wi-Fi. Has been done. The sub-control unit 160 checks the version number of the update program at the initial check when the power is turned on and starts, connects to the Internet by wireless LAN, and collates with the latest update program stored in the maker server. If the version number of the latest update program is new as a result of collation, the sub-control unit 160 downloads the latest update program to the external RAM 163 for the update program. Then, the sub-control unit 160 can detect the occurrence of a new error in the symbol variation game by reading the latest update program (detects a new goto action and notifies the action as an error). Specifically, the main control unit 100 outputs all or a part of the various input sensor signals to the sub control unit 160 in the ON state (1 information) or the OFF state (0 information), and the sub control The unit 160 can detect the occurrence of a new error by reading and running the latest update program and performing error detection processing from various sensor signals.

In particular, since the main control unit 100 does not include an update program, it cannot detect the occurrence of a new error in the symbol variation game even with various input sensor signals. Therefore, if it does not detect it, the symbol variation game proceeds. Control to let. For example, the main control unit 100 transmits information (middle right, left, etc.) for instructing the operation of the stop switch to the sub control unit 160 in the advantageous section, but the sub control unit 160 notifies a new error. Even if information for instructing the operation of the stop switch is received from the main control unit 100 in this state, the operation information of the stop switch is not notified. For example, the sub-control unit 160 generates a warning sound, blacks out the screen of the display effect device 11, and displays “An error has occurred” on the screen. That is, the sub-control unit 160 does not notify the operation information of the stop switch.

When the sub control unit 160 executes an internal lottery using the random numbers extracted by the main control unit 100 in accordance with the start operation of the start lever 9, and receives a notification of the result of a big hit, a replay, various small wins, or a loss, Before notifying the player of the lottery result, an effect lottery is performed as to whether or not the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game status display LED unit 13 are to perform the effect. When the sub-control unit 160 wins the effect lottery, the sub-control unit 160 selects an effect image to be displayed from a plurality of effect images stored in the ROM 11c (see FIG. 13) described later and outputs the effect image to the display panel 11e.

In particular, as will be described later, in the sub-control unit 160, when the push order small winning combination (the first small winning combination and a plurality of parts of the plurality of pushing order specified small winning combination) is internally won during the ART bonus game, Assist information (auxiliary information) for aligning the winning first small winning combination symbol (for example, bell symbol) on the effective line is displayed on the display effect device 11. This allows the player to easily win the first small role. However, this ART bonus game is managed by the control of the main control unit 100, and the sub control unit 160 only displays the assist information according to the instruction of the main control unit 100. That is, the sub-control unit 160 is not involved in the ball ejection performance.

When the cross key is operated, the cross key sensor 111 outputs a direction signal corresponding to four directions of up, down, left, and right and a decision button operation signal in the central portion, and the sub-control unit 160 receives this direction signal and directs the direction. Various video effects and winning notifications according to the signals are displayed on the display effect device 11, and a sound effect is further generated from the speaker unit 12. Further, the sub-control unit 160 displays the combination symbol of the combination, the small combination table, and the payout table on the display effect device 11 based on the signal from the cross key sensor 111.

The special button sensor 112 outputs an ON signal (for example, HIGH signal) when the special button 14 is operated, and outputs an OFF signal (for example, LOW signal) when the special button 14 is released, and the sub-control unit 160 receives this ON signal. Various games, their video effects, winning notifications, and the like are displayed on the display effect device 11 according to the timing of the signals and the number of times the pulse is received (called repeated hits).

The door abnormality signal output device 113 is a device that detects the open / closed state of the door and outputs a control signal to the sub-control unit 160 via the main control unit 100. When the main power is on, the front door 1b While outputting an ON / OFF signal according to the opening and closing, when the main power is off, it is driven by the power supplied from the sub power supply (backup battery), and abnormal opening and closing of the front door 1b when the main power is turned off is detected. After that, even when the main power is turned on, the sub-control unit 160 is notified of abnormal opening and closing when the main power is turned off. As a result, the sub-control unit 160 generates a warning sound when the main power is turned on even if the front door 1b is closed and there seems to be no abnormality at all, so that the manager of the game hall recognizes the abnormal situation. , Appropriate measures such as checking and inspection of game machines can be taken.

The medal detection sensor 130 is composed of a medal passage sensor and a proximity sensor (not shown), and outputs a number of pulse signals corresponding to the number of medals inserted from the medal insertion slot 5. The main control unit 100 receives this pulse signal and executes counter logical operation processing at the rise and fall of the pulse signal to set the number of pulses to the input number LED 4a or the medal storage number display LED 4b in the display LED block 4. It is controlled to display the number of inserted sheets or the number of credits increased by the corresponding number.

The bet button detection sensor 140 normally has a 1-bet button detection sensor 140a that outputs a pulse signal in response to an operation of the 1-bet button, and a max bet button detection sensor 140b that outputs a pulse signal in response to an operation of the max bet button 8. It is composed of the above two and is separately connected to the two ports of the main control unit 100 (not shown in detail). The main control unit 100 controls the number display of the input number LED 4a so as to correspond to the obtained pulse signal. However, since there are many models that do not have the 1-bet button these days, it is assumed that only the max-bet button 8 is provided.

Here, referring to FIG. 2B, the maximum number of sheets that can be inserted is 3 (first number) or less than the maximum (second number: 1 or 2, that is, the second number is the first). The number of cards is less than the number of cards). When the main control unit 100 detects the rising edge of the pulse signal output from the max bet button detection sensor 140b by turning on the max bet button 8 in a state where the game can be played with the maximum number or less than the maximum number. , Start the 0.8 second timer to start timing. When the main control unit 100 detects the falling edge of the pulse signal output from the max bet button detection sensor 140b by turning off the max bet button 8, 0.8 seconds of a predetermined time must have elapsed. For example, since it is a short-time operation that is less than a predetermined time, the maximum number of 3 sheets is inserted (see the left figure of FIG. 2B). On the other hand, when the falling edge of the pulse signal is detected, if 0.8 seconds of the predetermined time has passed, the operation is for a long time exceeding the predetermined time, so the number of sheets (1 or 2) less than the maximum is input. (See the figure on the right side of FIG. 2B).

Further, when the player normally operates the start lever 9 after inserting a predetermined number of medals, the start SW sensor 110 outputs a start signal, and the main control unit 100 receives the start signal to perform a random number lottery or the like. The variable display game is started, and the drive pulse signal is output to the drum unit 2. In addition, the game performed by operating the start lever 9 once is a variable display game of one game, and the player aims to acquire a bonus game (big bonus or regular bonus) and increase medals. Repeat the game. The bonus game means, for example, a first-class special bonus (RB), a first-class special bonus continuous operation (RBB), or a second-class special bonus continuous operation (CBB).

Then, when the stop buttons 10a, 10b, and 10c are operated during the variable display game, the main control unit 100 individually stops the rotation of the corresponding rotating drums, and a predetermined winning combination is established (the symbol of each rotating drum). Is displayed in a predetermined combination to win a prize.) When paying out medals, the number of medals to be paid out is displayed on the medal payout number display LED 4c in the display LED block 4, and this is the number of credits. In addition to this, the medal storage number display LED 4b is displayed. When the payout operation is performed by the settlement button 6 or when the number of credits exceeds, for example, the maximum number of 50, the main control unit 100 drives and controls the medal payout device 18 to obtain the required number of medals. It is discharged from the payout port 16 and accumulated in the saucer 15.

Further, the main control unit 100 outputs control data (event data) related to the internal winning or the like to the sub control unit 160 when a replay or a small winning combination, particularly a bonus, is internally won. Then, when the sub control unit 160 receives the control data from the main control unit 100, the sub control unit 160 controls the lighting of the game status display LED unit 13 and controls the voice synthesis LSI (not shown) for generating the sound effect from the speaker unit 12. , And various effect operations such as display control of characters and background images in the display screen of the display effect device 11.

Reference numeral 150 denotes a stage setting unit, and by performing the stage setting operation of the ball output rate described later in FIG. 20, the hall side can release a large amount of medals at an event or a newly refurbished opening and collect the medals to improve profits. , A desired set value can be selected from step values 1 to 6 (or jump numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, etc.).

A stop setting unit (not shown) is connected to the main control unit 100, and if it is on (or "1"), the input number LED4a and the medal storage number display LED4b are displayed after the bonus game is completed. The total number of medals displayed is forcibly paid out, the operation for playing the variable display game is disabled (stopped state), and a warning sound is generated from the speaker unit 12. Recently, there are many slot machines that do not have this stop setting unit.

FIG. 4 is a block diagram of a control circuit system that controls the drum unit.

The drum unit 2 includes step motors 30a, 30b and 30c for controlling the rotation of the three drums of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c, and responds to the drive pulse signal from the main control unit 100. When the step motors 30a, 30b, and 30c are driven and the drive pulse signal is continuously supplied to any two phases at the same time, an attractive force is generated and the motor stops suddenly. Actually, finer stop control is performed to smoothly stop the drum portion 2 at a predetermined position.

The step motors 30a, 30b and 30c are 4-phase 1-2 excitation methods and have 252 steps / rotation (1.43 degrees / step), and when the main control unit 100 inputs 504 drive pulse signals, it is just Make one rotation. Since the main control unit 100 returns one pulse of each index signal (reference signal or reference position signal) from the rotating cylinder sensors 31a, 31b, and 31c composed of one photointerruptor provided for each drum, each drum. It is possible to accurately grasp the reference position of. That is, the resolution of one input pulse is 0.714 (degrees / pulse). When further increasing the resolution, the rotation position can be grasped in detail by managing the time from one input pulse to the next input pulse and the rotation speed.

FIG. 5 is a block diagram of a drum portion.

The central portions of the left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c, which are thick disk-shaped rotating bodies, are connected to the rotating shafts of the step motors 30a (not shown), 30b (not shown), and 30c, respectively. And rotate in the direction of the illustrated arrow (ie, from top to bottom). Further, a left-handed trunk band 32a, a middle-turned trunk band 32b, and a right-handed trunk band 32c in which a plurality of types of symbols are arranged are attached to the outer peripheral portion of each drum, and the same symbol (predetermined) in the variable display game If the predetermined symbols) are lined up on the effective line and displayed on the window portion 3, the winning combination is established (winning or operation). The star mark, + mark, plum mark (black circle mark) and triangle mark in the figure are shown for convenience and are different from the actual ones. 7 symbols, bar symbol, bell symbol, watermelon symbol and cherry Designs and the like are generally used. In addition, the bobbin band is generally called a reel tape.

Rotating cylinder sensors 31a, 31b and 31c (not shown) are provided for each of the step motors 30a, 30b and 30c, and one pulse of an index signal is returned from each rotating cylinder sensor for each rotation of the step motor. It is coming. The main control unit 100 always grasps the symbol number and the rotation angle (24 divisions / symbol) at the reference position (for example, the lowest position of the window portion 3) based on the index signal and the number of output drive pulse signals (24 divisions / symbols). It has recognized.

FIG. 6 is a pattern arrangement table of the drum.

On each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a rotating drum band (not shown) on which the left drum symbol, the middle drum symbol, and the right drum symbol are drawn goes around the outer periphery of each drum. It is stuck on.

As shown in the example, 21 differently arranged symbols are drawn on each torso belt, and the big bonus symbols "Red 7", "Blue 7", "Yellow 7", and "BAR" that activate the bonus are drawn. ] And various small winning symbols such as cherry, watermelon, bell, and replay that activates the replay are attached. Although not shown in this figure, the "discarded symbol" (also referred to as a blank symbol) does not form any role even if it stops on the effective line, and is circled in light gray so as not to be noticeable to the player. "N" may be printed inside. In other words, the discarded symbol is a symbol that is not related to winning.

FIG. 7 is a block diagram of a drum portion, and FIGS. 7 (A) and 7 (B) show a state in which the right drum 2c is retract-controlled in chronological order.

The main control unit 100 receives the start signal of the variable display game, and when the lottery result is won and the winning combination is internally won, the main control unit 100 performs pull-in control for drawing the symbol of the winning combination on the effective line as much as possible. Do.

For example, this is effective in the so-called reach state (or tempai state) in which the big bonus role is internally won and the symbols "7, 7" are aligned on the effective line diagonally below the right of the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b that have stopped. When the symbol "7" is located within 4 frames above the line (that is, when it is located within 5 frames including the symbol on the effective line), when the right stop button 10c is stopped (FIG. 7 (A). ), The main control unit 100 forcibly pulls the symbol "7" onto the effective line and performs pull-in control so as to form a combination of "7, 7, 7" (see FIG. 7 (B)). ..

On the other hand, even if one of the winning combinations is internally won by lottery, the player will not be in an advantageous state unless a predetermined symbol corresponding to the winning combination is displayed on the valid line. For example, the big bonus game (BB game) does not operate unless it is displayed as shown in FIG. 7 (B). It should be noted that this pull-in control is performed not only on the right drum 2c but also on any of the symbols on the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b. The main control unit 100 sequentially calculates the number of sliding frames with respect to the virtual stop operation symbol frame position in advance with reference to the stop table that determines the stop position of each drum according to the random number lottery result (internal winning or loss). Then, the sliding frame number table for the first stop operation is completed. Then, when the stop button unit is actually stopped, the main control unit 100 moves the corresponding reel drum by the number of sliding frames corresponding to the symbol number at the reference position, and then stops so as to stop. Take control. That is, the first stop operation position has a total of 63 frame positions (21 frames x 3 reels), and the number of slip frames for all the frame positions is created in advance as a slide frame number table (before the stop operation becomes possible). To do.

In the example of FIG. 7, in the tempai state, the symbol “7” of the right drum 2c is exactly four frames above, and is subject to pull-in control and is lined up on the effective line. However, this pull-in control is not limited to four frames, and the number of pull-in frames can be increased or decreased by software control so as to conform to the design specifications or legal regulations in the reel control of the freeze effect. In addition, when the random number lottery result is won in the general game, the sub-control unit 160 provides auxiliary information (operation order and operation order) for stopping the rotation of the rotating drum so that the symbols are displayed in a predetermined combination by the pull-in control. Assist information such as operation timing: AT information) is notified by the display effect device 11 or voice.

FIG. 8 is a block diagram of a drum portion, and FIGS. 8A and 8B show a state in which the right drum 2c is evasively controlled (or kicked) in chronological order.

The main control unit 100 receives the start signal of the variable display game, and when the lottery result is lost and the winning combination is not established (when all the winning combinations are not internally won), the main control unit 100 wins or operates on the valid line. Evasion control is performed to prevent the symbols of the roles (bonus, small role, replay) from being aligned.

For example, in a reach state (tempai state) in which the big bonus role is not internally won and the symbols "7, 7" are aligned on the effective line diagonally below the right of the stopped left drum 2a and middle drum 2b. When the stop button 10c is operated by a person by "pressing the eyes" while the symbol "7" is located within one frame from this effective line (for example, it is called "pressing the drum"). (See A)), the main control unit 100 performs avoidance control by moving the symbol "7" to at least one step ahead so that "7, 7, 7" are not aligned on the effective line and forcibly losing the symbol "7". (See FIG. 8 (B)). This avoidance control is performed not only on the right drum 2c but also on any of the symbols on the left drum 2a and the middle drum 2b. In addition, avoidance control is performed so that the unsuccessful small winning combination symbol does not win a prize. These pull-in control and avoidance control (kicking control) are stop control based on the number of slip frames table created in advance by the main control unit 100 with reference to the stop table according to the internal winning situation, and if necessary. It is controlled by a program.

FIG. 9 is a timing chart showing the relationship between the index signal, the symbol position data (frame data), the drive pulse signal, and the stop button sensor signal.

FIG. 9A shows index signals output from the cylinder sensors 31a, 31b and 31c, and is mainly controlled so that T1 becomes constant at 0.751 seconds (that is, 79.9 rotations / minute). It is controlled by unit 100.

FIG. 9B shows the symbol position data of the rotating drum, and FIG. 9C shows the drive pulse signal.

The symbol position data is generated by dividing the drive pulse signal, and the drive pulse signal is decremented by 1 every 24 pulses. That is, based on the index signal, the symbol position data is "21" in the range of 1 pulse to 24 pulses for the drive pulse signal, and "20" is the symbol position data in the range of 25 pulses to 48 pulses for the drive pulse signal. The symbol position data is "19" when the drive pulse signal is in the range of 49 to 72 pulses, ..., The symbol position data is "1" when the drive pulse signal is in the range of 481 to 504 pulses, and the symbol position data is 21 to 1. Turn around. That is, the symbol position data returns to "21" after "1".

The drive pulse signal is a drive pulse of a specified pattern input to the motor coil in order to rotate the rotating drum in a certain direction, and as can be seen from the figure, there are eight pattern numbers 0 to 7. When pattern numbers 0 to 7 are repeatedly added to the motor coils 1 to 4 phases as this drive pulse signal (that is, when 24 pulses are input), the rotating drum rotates from top to bottom by one symbol (1 frame). To do.

In particular, the input pulse phase data of the drive pulse input to the step motor is 5-bit data of 0 to 23 for driving one frame of the rotating drum, and the pattern numbers 0 to 7 are the phase data of the lower 3 bits thereof. Then, the drive pulse corresponding to the pattern number is actually applied to the 1st to 4th phases of the motor coil. Therefore, even when only the pattern number is stored in the work RAM (RAM 102), it corresponds to the phase data storage means for storing the input pulse phase data.

FIG. 9D shows a stop button sensor signal output when each stop button is operated. In the case of this figure, the main control unit 100 recognizes the symbol position data “11” and the input pulse phase data “10” (or the pattern number “2”) at the time when the stop button sensor signal rises.

FIG. 10 is a schematic view of the left drum 2a included in the drum portion.

As shown in FIG. 10 (A), the left drum 2a rotates in the direction of the arrow (from top to bottom), and the cherry pattern is placed in any of the upper, middle, or lower stages of the three window portions 3 shown by the solid lines. When (the lower Chilean symbol in FIG. 6) stops, a prize is won and a predetermined number of game medals are paid out. Note that FIG. 10A shows a state in which the cherry symbol is stopped at the upper stage of the window portion 3.

When the player performs the start operation of the variable display game, the main control unit 100 performs an internal lottery, and as a result, when the upper cherry (cherry 1) is won, the position (timing) at which the stop button is operated. ) Performs pull-in control (see FIG. 9) or avoidance control (see FIG. 10) of the cherry symbol.

FIG. 10B shows a range in which pull-in control is possible, and the main control unit 100 has a window unit when the stop button 10a is operated at a position four frames above the cherry symbol from the position just above the upper stage. Stop the cherry symbol in the upper row of 3 (assuming that the bita symbol is in the upper row). Actually, it takes about 36 ms to stop, so it is located above that amount, but for convenience of explanation, it is described as follows. In addition, since it is stipulated that the vehicle stops within 190 ms from the stop operation, it may not slide four frames. Data 1 to 4 shown in FIG. 10A and 0 data overlapping with the cherry symbol indicate the number of slip frames, and the main control unit 100 performs stop calculation processing based on the winning combination, the stop control table, and the score information. Then, a slip frame number table is created so that the stop control can be performed immediately regardless of when and when the player operates the stop button unit 10.

On the other hand, FIGS. 10 (C) and 10 (D) show the range in which avoidance control and the like are performed, and in the main control unit 100, even when the upper cherry is won, the cherry symbol is 4 from the upper position. When the stop button 10a is operated at a position above the frame (that is, a position above 4 in FIG. 10A) or a position slightly past the upper position, the position is one above or below the upper position. Stop the cherry pattern one step down and make it a loss. That is, since the middle cherry (cherry 2) or the lower cherry (cherry 3) has not been won, the cherry symbol must be forcibly stopped outside the window portion 3.

FIG. 11 is a schematic view showing the relationship between the left drum 2a, the window portion 3, and the symbol position data.

As shown in FIGS. 11A and 11B, it is assumed that the cherry symbols on the left drum 2a are frame number 8 and frame number 19 (different from FIG. 6), and the upper cherry is inside. In the case of winning, if the lowest position of the window unit 3 is used as the measurement reference, the main control unit 100 has the symbol position data "14" and the input pulse phase data "0" to the symbol position data "11" and the input pulse phase data. When the stop button 10a is operated in the range of "23" or the symbol position data "4" and the input pulse phase data "0" to the symbol position data "1" and the input pulse phase data "23", the cherry symbol is displayed in the upper row. Stop at and win a prize. In other words, even if the stop button 10a is operated appropriately, not only will the prize be won with a probability of 10/21, but if the winning notification is given, an expert can make a push and win a prize with a probability close to 100%. ..

FIG. 12 is a combination display determination diagram of symbols.

When all three drum units 2 are stopped, the main control unit 100 determines a combination display of symbols related to winning and operation on an effective line according to the number of inserted game medals. Generally, when one game medal is inserted, the effective line is only the first line, when two game medals are inserted, the effective line is the first line, the second line and the third line, and when three game medals are inserted, the effective line is the effective line. In addition to the 1st to 3rd lines, all of the 4th and 5th lines are activated. For example, if three game medals are inserted and a cherry pattern for paying out two medals on the left drum 2a is displayed on the window 3, four medals (2 x 2 lines: 2nd line and 2nd line) are displayed in the upper row. 4 lines), 2 cards (2 cards x 1 line: 1st line) in the middle row, and 4 cards (2 cards x 2 lines: 3rd line and 5th line) in the lower row. However, this effective line is a general one that has been adopted conventionally, and as will be described later, there are many lines with only one line or irregular lines these days. The maximum number of cards that can be paid out at one time is 15.

FIG. 13 is a block diagram of the display effect device.

The display effect device 11 includes a transmission / reception unit 11a for receiving an effect command from the sub-control unit 160 and transmitting necessary information, a display effect control unit 11b (including ROM 11c and RAM 11d), an LCD, an organic EL, an LED, and the like. The display panel 11e of the above is provided. In the case of this figure, the display effect control unit 11b is provided with the ROM 11c separately, but there is no problem even if all the video data is stored in the ROM 161. Therefore, the ROM 11c can be considered as a part of the ROM 161.

FIG. 14 is an effect pattern table, and associates the relationship between the effect command and the effect pattern data stored in the ROM.

The production command consists of 1-byte length mode data and 1-byte length event data, and is stored in association with the production pattern data (mainly moving images, but also still images), which is the production content. ..

When the sub control unit 160 receives control data required for various controls from the main control unit 100 (particularly, various data indicating a large hit, a small hit, a replay, or a loss of the random number lottery result is included), the sub control unit 160 receives a random number. Before notifying the result of the lottery, an appropriate effect command corresponding to the control data is transmitted to the display effect device 11, and the command receiving unit 11a receives this effect command and transmits it to the display effect control unit 11b.

When the display effect control unit 11b receives the effect command, the display effect control unit 11b reads the effect pattern data corresponding to the effect command from the ROM 11c, develops the data in the RAM 11d, and transmits the effect image to the display panel 11e to display the effect image corresponding to the effect command. It is configured to be displayed on the screen.

15 to 17 are schematic views of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device.

When the sub-control unit 160 transmits, for example, ($ Z0 $ 00) as an effect command, the display panel 11e mainly indicates a state in which there is no stock of pseudo-bonus or a state in which it is difficult to win the pseudo-bonus. The effect pattern 0 ”is displayed (see FIG. 15 (A)). On the other hand, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ Y0 $ 00) as an effect command, the display panel 11e indicates a state in which there is a stock of pseudo-bonus or a high-probability state in which the pseudo-bonus is likely to be won. "Night effect pattern 0" is displayed (see FIG. 15B). Therefore, the player expects or longs for a "night production stage" that mainly suggests a high probability state during the game. However, even if there is no stock of pseudo-bonus or in a non-high probability state, the "night production stage" is displayed, and vice versa. It may be displayed. The pseudo-bonus is a special game in which the assist function is activated, and the assist bonus starts when the pseudo-bonus is released.

Further, when the sub-control unit 160 transmits ($ S0 $ 00) as an effect command, the display panel 11e superimposes "Dracula Castle", which is an image corresponding to "castle effect pattern 0", on the background screen of the blue sky. It is designed to be displayed (see Fig. 15 (A)) or superimposed on the background screen of the moonlit night (see Fig. 17 (B)), after which yellow, red, or blue bats pop out from Dracula Castle. It comes and displays the notification image corresponding to the established combination (small combination or replay) (see FIG. 15C).

When the production of FIG. 15B develops in multiple stages, it becomes a state in which there is a stock of pseudo-bonus and the release probability is high, or the expectation of pseudo-bonus release is high or confirmed. For example, FIG. 16A shows a state in which the outer gate of "Dracula Castle" is enlarged and the iron gate is about to open. Then, it invades Dracula Castle and the door expands (see Fig. 16 (B)), the door gradually opens (see Fig. 16 (C)), and the inside of the gorgeous "Dracula Castle" is displayed (Fig. 16). (D)). After that, it develops into a battle between the hero and the vampire Count Dracula, and if the hero wins, there is a stock of pseudo bonuses and the release of the pseudo bonus is confirmed, and the inside of the actual bonus is being elected and the actual bonus release is confirmed.

From the state where the normal screen at night in FIG. 17 (A) (same as in FIG. 15 (B)) is displayed, the display screen is scrolled to the left, the graveyard is enlarged, and the character's butler shouts "Orya". Along with the sound effect "Tirorororone", the main character appears from the graveyard in the center of the screen (see Fig. 17 (B)), and the characters "BONUS" meaning "big hit" are displayed (see Fig. 17 (B)). By making it (see FIG. 17C), it may be a premier production. All of these display effects are also executed by receiving control commands and event data from the main control unit 100 and outputting the effect commands according to the program by the sub control unit 160.

FIG. 18 is a conceptual diagram of a general lottery table.

The lottery table is stored in a predetermined area of the ROM 101, and defines the relationship between the winning combination and the number of places used for the random number lottery.

In the case of the rotating drum type gaming machine of the present invention, the main control unit 100 generates a random value. As for this random value, all the values from 0 to 65535 (m7) are periodically generated at random only once in one cycle (about 6.5 ms). FIG. 18A is a lottery table used in a normal state (initial state or non-RT state) having a high probability of loss, and when the main control unit 100 draws an internal lottery at the timing when the start lever 9 is operated. In addition, if the random number value is in the range of 0 to m1, the big bonus (BB) will be won. That is, this internal lottery is to pick up (extract) only one random number value at the time of the start operation and compare it with the lottery table to determine the winning combination.

Similarly, regular bonus (RB) in the range of random number m1 + 1 to m2, cherry in the range of random number m2 + 1 to m3, watermelon in the range of random number m3 + 1 to m4, bell in the range of random number m4 + 1 to m5. And while the replay is won in the range of m5 + 1 to m6 of the random number value, it is lost in the range of m6 + 1 to m7 of the random number value.

Normally, these values of m1 to m7 are appropriately set in consideration of legal regulations (Fueiho) and game characteristics, but the BB winning probability is about "1/400" and the RB winning probability is "1/300". , The winning probability of cherry and watermelon is about "1/50", the winning probability of bell is about "1/6", and the winning probability of replay is 1 / 7.3. In addition, although BB and RB are elected independently, they may be elected at the same time as the rare role.

On the other hand, FIG. 18B is a lottery table used in the high-probability replay state (RT state). In the replay time, the winning range of the replay is expanded by α, while the range of loss is narrowed by α. As a result, the winning probability of the replay is set to about "1/2". As a result, the probability of winning a replay equivalent to a three-card payout is greatly increased, while the probability of losing is reduced, and as a result, the expected value of payout of game medals is greatly improved or increased in the replay time. .. Further, the main control unit 100 can set the expected value of the replay time to a desired value by increasing or decreasing this α value.

Although the detailed drawing of the lottery table is omitted, there are six lottery tables 1, lottery table 2 ... lottery table 6 corresponding to the step setting values 1 to 6 of the payout rate and the number of inserted medals (specified number), and the main control unit. Selects a lottery table according to the stage setting value set by the stage setting unit 150 and the number of inserted medals, and executes a bonus game or an internal lottery of a plurality of small wins in the variable display game. The expected value for winning the bonus game in the internal lottery is generally the lottery table 1 <lottery table 2 <... <lottery table 6, so the player pursues the high setting table. However, if it is a three-card dedicated machine, a lottery table with one medal is unnecessary.

FIG. 19 is a payout table showing the relationship between the combination of symbols and the number of medals won.

BB (Big Bonus) is the role name when the BB symbol of "Red 7", the BB symbol of "Blue 7", and the BB symbol of "Yellow 7" are aligned on the effective line, and it corresponds to the internal winning. Set flag 1 in the flag area, and when these symbols are aligned, the number of medals won will be 0, and you will enter the big bonus game (BB1 game to BB3 game: operation of the character continuous operation device) and end with a payout of over 359 cards. To do.

RB (Regular Bonus) is the RB pattern of "Red 7", "Red 7" and "BAR", the RB pattern of "Blue 7", "Blue 7" and "BAR", and the "Yellow 7", "Yellow 7" and "BAR". It is the role name when the RB symbols are aligned on the valid line, and if you win internally, flag 1 is set in the corresponding flag area, and if these symbols are aligned, the number of medals won is 0, and the regular bonus game (RB game: accessory) It rushes into the operation of the continuous operation device) and ends with a payout of more than 119 sheets. It should be noted that these accessory continuous operation devices may be either a first-class special accessory or a second-class special accessory, and are appropriately selected according to the design specifications. As will be described later, in the model called RT machine, when the bonus game started by winning the bonus combination is completed, the high probability game in which the winning probability of the re-game combination is higher than the predetermined probability is determined in advance. It becomes possible to execute the number of times. Further, in this RT machine, when a specific symbol is displayed in the high-probability game, the high-probability game in which the winning probability of the re-game combination fluctuates can be executed a predetermined number of times.

If the cherry symbol stops on the effective line of the left drum, one medal will be won for each effective line. For example, if the effective line is the display determination diagram of FIG. 14, if the left drum is stopped in the middle stage, the number of effective lines is one, but if the effective line is the upper stage or the lower stage, the number of effective lines is two, and the total number of payouts is two. If the watermelon symbols are aligned on the effective line, 5 medals will be won. If the bell symbols are aligned on the effective line, eight medals will be won.

When the replay role is internally elected, flag 1 is set in the corresponding flag area, and one of the replay operation symbols is always aligned on the effective line (also called the replay role winning). When the replay operation symbol is displayed, the replay without winning medals is activated, and the player operates the start lever 9 to perform the replay and lower the flag (that is, set it to 0). In other words, the next game can be played without inserting medals. The timing of lowering the flag is arbitrary.

Next, the basic operation of the rotating cylinder type gaming machine configured as described above will be described with reference to a flowchart and the like.

First, in the state where the rotating cylinder type game machine is shipped from the factory, by default, the warning mode when the step setting operation of the ball ejection rate is performed is "on state", and the stop setting unit 180 (stop setting switch) is ". It is assumed that it is "off" and the step setting value is set to the lowest "1".

On the game hall side, when the front door of the rotating cylinder type game machine main body 1 is opened and the power switch 28c is turned on before letting the player play, power is supplied to each circuit block, and the main control unit 100 will be described later. In step S100, perform initial check (hardware abnormality check, etc.) and initial setting (for example, write the stop setting flag "1", the stage setting value "1" stored in ROM 101, and the initial value of control data to RAM 102). Then, the sub-control unit 160 sets the warning mode to the "on state", and when the front door 1b is closed, the variable display game can be played.

In this state, it is assumed that the game hall side is trying to change the setting of the ball output rate for a grand opening, a new store opening, or an event in this setting state.

FIG. 20 is a flowchart showing a main operation processing procedure of the rotating cylinder type gaming machine.

Employees of the game hall open the front door of the rotating game machine main body 1 to temporarily turn off the power switch 28c, insert the setting change key into the setting key switch 28a, and turn it to the right to turn it on (FIG. 2). When the power switch 28c is turned on again (see the enlarged view of the key switch for setting), power is supplied to each circuit block, and after the initial check and initial setting are executed in step S100, the main control unit 100 steps. In S110, it is determined whether or not the setting key switch 28a is in the ON state.

If the setting key switch 28a is not in the ON state, the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S130, while if it is in the ON state, the main control unit 100 calls the setting change subroutine in step S120 (shifts to the setting change mode).

In the setting change mode of step S120, the game hall side inputs the step setting value "6" having the highest payout rate before letting the player play, and hits the start lever 9 once to confirm the setting value, and the setting key switch. When 28a is turned off, the main control unit 100 returns to step S100, sets the set value to "6", and performs necessary processing such as initial hardware check and initial setting again.

When the main control unit 100 outputs control data to the sub control unit 160 in order to set the display of the initial screen in step S100, the sub control unit 160 displays ($ Y0 $ 01) as an effect command, for example. Send to 11. As a result, the display panel 11e displays a "night effect pattern 1" composed of a full moon, a Dracula castle, and a graveyard screen in the night sky as a start screen (not shown).

When the main control unit 100 shifts to step S130 after changing the stage setting value, it checks for the occurrence of an abnormality such as a door open, a hopper error, or a selector error. While returning to step S100, if there is no abnormality, the process proceeds to step S150. In particular, the main control unit 100 indicates that the stage setting value data stored in the work RAM area corresponds to 0 to 5 (the stage setting values displayed on the medal payout number display LED 4c correspond to 1 to 6 respectively) as an abnormality check. ) Is within the range, and if the stage setting value is not within the predetermined range, the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game status display LED unit 13 warn (display characters of "EE" error). , Light emission and warning sound) to perform error handling (abnormal processing in step S140).

When the main control unit 100 proceeds to step S150, the medal detection sensor 130 or the bet button sensor 140 determines whether or not the player has inserted the required number of game medals for the game, and when a predetermined number of medals have been inserted. The process proceeds to step S160, while the process returns to step S130 if not inserted, and waits while looping each step until there is a medal insertion operation.

When the main control unit 100 shifts to step S160, the player operates the start lever to check whether or not the variable display game has been started, and if it has started, the main control unit 100 shifts to step S170 while starting the variable display game. If not, the process returns to step S130 and waits while looping each step until there is a start operation.

The main control unit 100 executes the main process of the variable display game in step S170, performs a random number lottery according to the reception timing of the start signal, and picks up (extracts) the random number value and the current internal state (RT or non-RT). It is determined whether or not an internal winner has been won by comparing with the lottery table of (see the explanation in FIG. 18).

The main control unit 100 transmits a lottery result command and a game start signal to the sub control unit 160, rotates the drum units 2 all at once, and displays a plurality of drums 2a, middle drums 2b, and right drums 2c. Start a variable display game in which the symbol of is changed at a predetermined speed.

In the main control unit 100, as described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10, the player operates the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, or the right stop button 10c of the stop button unit 10 to operate each symbol sequence (rotary body band). When is stopped, pull-in control is performed to align the symbols according to the internal winning combination on the effective line, and conversely, avoidance control is performed to align the symbols. When the sub-control unit 160 receives the lottery result command and the game start signal from the main control unit 100, the sub-control unit 160 draws a lottery to determine whether or not to display the effect on the display effect device 11, the speaker unit 12, and the game status display LED unit 13. Is performed, and the result of the lottery for big hits (bonus winning), small wins, replays, or losses is notified to the player according to the operation of the stop button unit 10. The main control unit 100 executes stop control with reference to the sliding frame number table.

The main control unit 100 determines that a winning combination is established if predetermined symbols are displayed side by side on the effective line of the window unit 3 in each variation display game of the general game, and the payout table stored in the ROM 161 (see FIG. 19). ), The game medal is paid out from the medal payout device 18 and the payout is discharged from the medal payout outlet 16 when the payout is added as a credit or exceeds the storage upper limit value.

In the big bonus game (BB game) in which three red 7s are arranged, the BB game mode is terminated when the continuous operating device for the accessory is activated and the number of acquired cards exceeds 360. In addition, in the regular bonus game (RB game) in which three blue 7 symbols are arranged, the RB game mode is terminated when the continuous operating device for the character is activated and the number of acquired cards exceeds 120. ..

Then, when the main control unit 100 finishes the game main process of step S170, it returns to step S130 and repeats the process sequentially.

Next, the operation of the rotating cylinder type game machine basically configured as described above will be described in detail with reference to drawings, flowcharts, and the like. In particular, a rotating game machine (A + ART type) in which the winning probability of the replay fluctuates and the actual bonus and the assist bonus (ART, third bonus, pseudo-bonus, etc.) are installed will be described.

FIG. 21 is a design layout of the drum.

The left drum 2a (1st body), the middle drum 2b (2nd body), and the right drum 2c (3rd body) each have a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol. A torso band (not shown) is attached so as to go around the outer periphery of each drum.

Each sash has a different arrangement of symbols (upper thin symbol, lower thin symbol, BAR symbol, blue seven symbol, red cherry symbol, blue cherry symbol, white pumpkin symbol, green pumpkin symbol, replay symbol, and bell symbol. 20 pieces (10 types) are arranged.

FIG. 22 is a combination display determination diagram of symbols.

When all three drum units 2 are stopped, the main control unit 100 determines a combination display of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of inserted game medals (FIG. 22 (FIG. 22). See A)). However, in all games (normal games, assist games, bonus games, etc.), the prescribed number is assumed to be three.

22 (B) and 22 (C) are effective lines when a specified number of three game medals are inserted, and the first line is anomalous in the order of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c. Only (lower, middle, middle: irregular horizontal line) is valid. That is, in all games, three cards are always inserted, and the effective line is the irregular first line.

FIG. 23 is a payout table during normal operation and bonus operation.

When all three reels (rotary cylinders or drums) are stopped, the main control unit 100 determines a combination display of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line (see FIG. 22).

(1) Bonus 1 (continuous operation device for the first-class special accessory): (BAR) on the left drum 2a, (BAR) on the middle drum 2b, and (red cherry) on the right drum 2c on the effective line. When all the cards are stopped, the number of acquired cards is 0, and then a bonus of 1 is given (Type 1 BB1 is activated. BIG bonus). Since the BAR symbols appear to be aligned in the upper right corner, there is no sense of discomfort for the player. This is a bonus 1 game, and ends when the number of acquired cards exceeds 144.

(2) Bonus 2 (continuous operation device for the first-class special accessory): (BAR) on the left drum 2a, (BAR) on the middle drum 2b, and (blue cherry) on the right drum 2c on the effective line. When all of them are stopped, the number of acquired cards is 0 and bonus 2 is given after that (Type 1 BB2 is activated. Regular bonus). The BAR symbol, the BAR symbol, and the blue 7 symbol appear to be aligned in the upper right corner, so there is no sense of discomfort for the player. This is a bonus 2 game, and ends when the number of acquired cards exceeds 144.

(3) Middle bell: When the left drum 2a (replay), the middle drum 2b (bell), and the right drum 2c (bell) are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the bell symbol is displayed in a straight line in the center, and the middle bell is displayed. Will win a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be nine.

(4) Lower right bell: For example, when (BAR) is on the left drum 2a, (bell) is on the middle drum 2b, and (replay) is on the right drum 2c and stops, a bell symbol is displayed on the lower right. , The lower right bell wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be nine.

(5) Lower right bell loss (increasing role during BB): For example, during a BB game, (BAR) on the left drum 2a, (bell) on the middle drum 2b, and (bell) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line. When it stops, it will be displayed as if the bell pattern was missed on the lower right, and the lower right bell loss will win. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be nine. In a normal game, even if this symbol is displayed, it will be lost and the number of medals (game media) acquired will be 0.

(6) Upper bell: For example, when (BAR) on the left drum 2a, (blue 7) on the middle drum 2b, and (BAR) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the bell symbol is displayed on the upper row and the upper row. Bell wins. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be nine. There are 27 types of upper bells, which serve as inhibition small roles in the push order small role described later.

(7) Push order small role: Left 1st is the correct push order push order bell role (left), middle 1st is the correct push order push order cherry role (middle), right 1st is the correct answer push order push order cherry role (7) There are three types (right), and if the first stop operation is the correct answer for the three-choice small winning combination, the target small winning combination will win in the subsequent second and third operations.

(8) Middle cherry: For example, when the left drum 2a has the 20th (white pumpkin), the middle drum 2b has the 2nd (BAR), and the right drum 2c has the 11th (bell) all on the effective line. , Middle cherry wins. The number of medals (game media) won will be nine. It is possible to display all three BAR symbols on the lower right. The role of middle cherry is a trigger for the freeze lottery, and if it is won, a freeze effect (reel lock and reel effect) is performed, and at least five pseudo bonuses are stocked and immediately released.

(9) Lower right pumpkin (lower right watermelon): For example, 17th (replay) on the left drum 2a, 14th (white pumpkin) on the middle drum 2b, and 13th (red cherry) on the right drum 2c are effective. When the pumpkins are aligned on the line and stopped, a pumpkin pattern is displayed on the lower right, and the lower right pumpkin wins a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be five.

(10) Upper right pumpkin (upper right watermelon): For example, 13th (green pumpkin) on the left drum 2a, 19th (white pumpkin) on the middle drum 2b, and 3rd (upper thin) on the right drum 2c are effective. When you stop on the line, the pumpkin pattern will be displayed in the upper right corner, and the upper right pumpkin will win a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be five.

(11) Strong pumpkin (strong watermelon): For example, 13th (green pumpkin) on the left drum 2a, 19th (white pumpkin) on the middle drum 2b, and 3rd (lower thin) on the right drum 2c are effective lines. When the pumpkins are aligned on the top and stopped, the pumpkin symbol, the upper thin symbol, and the lower thin symbol are displayed in the upper right corner, and the strong pumpkin wins a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired is 5, and the two symbols, the upper thin symbol and the lower thin symbol, stop in the display window frame, which is powerful.

(12) Middle replay: For example, the role name when the left drum 2a has the 18th (BAR), the middle drum 2b has the 7th (replay), and the right drum 2c has the 5th (replay) on the effective line. On the other hand, no medal is won, but the next game can be played while maintaining the number of bets in the game. It is effective even if it is arranged continuously after the next game, and it is possible to continue playing without consuming coins until the game in which the replay is not established. A medal is automatically inserted before the start of the game, and the next game can be played by operating the start lever 9 of the player. When a normal replay is internally won by a random number lottery, the RP flag corresponding to the flag area is set and the replay symbol is always displayed. In appearance, the replay patterns are aligned horizontally in the center. Even if the operation symbol of the re-game A is displayed, the re-game probability does not change.

(13) Upper right replay: For example, when the 7th (replay) on the left drum 2a, the 2nd (replay) on the middle drum 2b, and the 16th (bell) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line and stopped. The replay symbol is displayed on the upper right, and the replay operates in the same way as the normal replay.

(14) RT2 transition replay (replay 2): For example, (BAR) on the left drum 2a, 12 (replay) on the middle drum 2b, and 14 (white pumpkin) on the right drum 2c are all on the effective line. This is the name of the role in the case of, and no medal is won for this, but the next game can be played while maintaining the number of bets in the game. In appearance, two replay symbols and a pumpkin symbol (re-re-ka) are displayed in a straight line in the center. When the RT2 transition replay is internally won by a random number lottery and this replay symbol is displayed, the replay 2 is activated, the replay probability fluctuates to about 2/3, and the RT2 state is entered.

(15) RT3 transition replay (replay 3): For example, the role name when the 17th (replay) on the left drum 2a, the (replay) on the middle drum 2b, and the (replay) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line. In contrast to this, no medals are won, but the next game can be played while maintaining the number of bets in that game. In appearance, the bell symbol, the replay symbol, and the replay symbol (be re-ri) are displayed in a straight line in the center. When the RT3 transition replay is internally won by a random number lottery and this replay symbol is displayed, the replay 3 is activated, the replay probability fluctuates to about 2/3, and the RT3 state is entered. In addition, the type of the re-game combination to be drawn and the winning range are different between the RT3 state and the RT2 state.

(16) RT1 transition replay (replay 1): For example, 17th (replay) is effective for the left drum 2a, 16th (blue seven) is effective for the middle drum 2b, and 14th (white pumpkin) is effective for the right drum 2c. It is the name of the role when they are aligned on the line, and no medals are won for this, but the next game can be played while maintaining the number of bets in that game. In appearance, the replay patterns are aligned in the lower row. When the RT1 transition replay is internally won by a random number lottery and this replay symbol is displayed, the replay 1 is activated and the replay probability fluctuates, and the state shifts to the RT1 state (fall replay).

(17) Blue Seven Replay: For example, No. 11 (Replay) on the left drum 2a, No. 16 (Blue Seven) on the middle drum 2b, and No. 17 (Blue Seven) on the right drum 2c are all on the effective line. When it stops, the blue seven symbols are displayed in a straight line in the center, and the blue seven replay role is activated. You can get great benefits about the ART function.

(18) Cherry replay: For example, by the player's reverse push operation, the 19th (blue cherry) on the left drum 2a, (Any) on the middle drum 2b, and (Any) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line. When stopped, cherry replay is activated. There are three types of cherry replays: strong cherry, medium cherry, and weak cherry, and players can get great benefits for the ART function.

(19) Symbol replay (not shown): For example, by the player's reverse push operation, the left drum 2a is No. 5 (white pumpkin), the middle drum 2b is No. 4 (lower thin), and the right drum 2c is 4 When the number (lower thin) is aligned on the effective line and stops, three completed symbol symbols are displayed on the upper stage of all reel drums, and the symbol replay is activated. The player earns three game points. You can get great benefits about the ART function.

(20) Small push order (push order bell role and push order cherry role) Koboshi eyes (1 to m): A special symbol displayed on the effective line when the bell role is missed in the push order small role described later. (Falling symbol), and when any one of the special symbols is displayed, the re-game probability fluctuates, and the state shifts to the RT1 state. For example, when No. 12 (replay) is displayed on the left drum 2a, No. 4 (bell) is displayed on the middle drum 2b, and (replay) is displayed on the right drum 2c (display of a falling symbol), the game state is displayed. It shifts to the RT1 state (others are omitted).

The main control unit 100 manages the push-order small wins in which a plurality of small wins are won at the same time and the push-order replays in which a plurality of replays are won at the same time as a group win (or push-order group win). During AT (while the assist function is not activated), regardless of whether the push order small combination or the push order replay is internally won, the information that the group combination has been won is only transmitted to the sub control unit 160, so the sub control unit 160 cannot recognize the correct answer pressing order. The main control unit 100 transmits the winning combination information to the sub control unit 160 after the second stop operation, and the sub control unit 160 performs an effect based on the winning combination information.

(21) Premier role (not shown): When the left drum 2a (lower thin), the middle drum 2b (upper thin), and the right drum 2c (upper thin) stop on the effective line, the premier role is played. Win a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be three. This premier role is a special role in which at least 10 pseudo bonuses are won by lottery, and the pseudo bonus is released immediately. Three completed symbol symbols are displayed at the bottom of all reel drums.

24 to 26 are a combination table (simultaneous winning pattern of small winning combination) of the condition devices of the pushing order small winning combination (left first, middle first or right first).

The push order small winning combination is always a bell small winning combination (lower right bell: winning small winning combination) or a square cherry (winning purpose small winning combination) when the operation order of the stop button section 10 (pressing order of the stop button section 10) is correct. )) On the other hand, in the case of incorrect answer procedure, when one of multiple types of 9 small wins (27 types of inhibitory small wins) that are won at the same time is won, and when there are multiple bumps. It is a duplicate winning small role that sometimes displays one of the (missing symbols of the obstructive small role). Since this push order small role wins in one-third, it can be said that it is a three-choice small role (1/3 winning small role). In other words, if the first operation is the correct answer, the bell small role or the corner cherry will always win.

In the push order bell combination (left), the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the left stop button 10a, and the subsequent operation may be either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c. Push-order bell 1 is a one-time push-order type push-order small winning combination, and the purpose is to win a prize, and the payout hinders the winning of the same first small winning combination (right-down bell role: FRU1) and the first small winning combination. A plurality of types of second small winning combinations (in this case, three types of nine small winning combination (FRU10, FRU23, FRU36)) constituting the target second small winning combination group are simultaneously elected (pushing order bell 1-1 in FIG. 24). (Refer to). Since there are nine types of push order bells 1 from push order bells 1-1 to push order bells 1-9, the player sees the outcome (stop symbol) of each reel and has a small hindrance to the 9-card combination. The stop button portion 10 cannot be operated aiming at the symbol so as not to miss the role.

In the push order cherry combination (middle), the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the middle stop button 10b, and the subsequent operation may be either the left stop button 10a or the right stop button 10c. The push order cherry role (middle) is a single push order type push order small role, and the dividend is the same for the purpose of winning the first small role (Kaku cherry role: FRU2), hindering the winning of the first small role A plurality of types of second small winning combinations (in this case, three types of nine small winning combination (FRU10, FRU23, FRU36)) constituting the second small winning combination group to be played are simultaneously won (pushing order cherry 2 in FIG. 25). (See -1). The push order cherry 2 and the push order bell 1 differ only in the first small winning combination. The push order cherry role (middle) is the push order cherry 2-1 to the push order cherry 2-. Since there are 9 types up to 9, the player cannot operate the stop button part 10 aiming at the symbol so as not to miss the obstructing small winning combination of the 9-card combination by looking at the outcome (stop symbol) of each reel. Since the cherry pattern is displayed on the lower part of the left drum 2a, the player has an impression like the lower cherry of the single pattern small role, and there is no sense of discomfort.

In the push order cherry combination (right), the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the right stop button 10c, and the subsequent operation may be either the left stop button 10a or the middle stop button 10b. The push order cherry role (right) is a one-time push order type push order small role, and the dividend is the same for the purpose of winning the first small role (Kaku cherry role: FRU3), which hinders the winning of the first small role. A plurality of types of second small winning combinations (in this case, three types of nine small winning combination (FRU10, FRU23, FRU36)) constituting the second small winning combination group to be played are simultaneously elected (pushing order cherry 3 in FIG. 26). (See -1). The push order cherry 3 and the push order bell 1 differ only in the first small winning combination. The push order cherry role (right) is the push order cherry 3-1 to the push order cherry 3-. Since there are 9 types up to 9, the player cannot operate the stop button part 10 aiming at the symbol so as not to miss the obstructing small winning combination of the 9-card combination by looking at the outcome (stop symbol) of each reel. Since the cherry pattern is displayed in the lower part of the left drum 2a, the player has an impression like the lower cherry of the single pattern small role, and there is no sense of discomfort.

27 to 28 are schematic views showing the symbol display state of the window portion in chronological order.

For example, when the main control unit 100 internally wins the push order bell 1-1 shown in FIG. 24 by random number lottery, as described above, the condition device of FRU1 + FR10 + FRU23 + FRU36 is simultaneously operated (four different types of nine small winning combinations are simultaneously activated). It is determined that the operation order on the left is the winning operation order based on the operation order information (1st on the left) stored corresponding to the ROM 101. In this state, the main control unit 100 executes a stop calculation process (process of pulling in the FRU1 symbol on the left 1st) based on the winning combination, the stop control table, and the score information, and the player stops button unit 10 at what time and timing. Create a sliding frame number table so that stop control can be performed immediately even if you operate. Further, the sliding frame number table is similarly created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation (see the explanation in FIG. 10).

FIG. 27 (A) shows a state in which all the drum portions 2 are rotating from top to bottom at a constant speed. When the player first stops the left stop button 10a in the correct operation order in the state of FIG. 27 (A), the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and obtains the corresponding sliding frame number data. Based on this, the left drum 2a is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and control is performed to draw any one of the upper thin symbol, the BAR symbol, and the green pumpkin symbol into the effective line (simply, the drum portion 2 is moved). It is only moved by the number of sliding frames (see FIG. 27 (B)). For example, the 18th BAR symbol stops on the effective line, and the 16th bell symbol is displayed in the upper row. In the state of FIG. 27B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c can be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation of the middle stop button 10b, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The middle drum 2b is stopped, and control is performed to draw the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) into the effective line (see FIG. 27 (C)). In the state of FIG. 27 (C), the FRU1 is tempered and the bell symbol (small combination explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the right stop button 10c may be operated, and when the right stop button 10c is operated for the third stop, the main control unit 100 , Refer to the sliding frame number table, and stop the right drum 2c in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and perform stop control to draw the replay symbol to the effective line (Fig.). 27 (D)). As a result, if the first stop operation is the correct answer, FRU1 always wins, the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line downward to the right, and nine medals are paid out. However, although the bell pattern is displayed in a straight line in appearance, it may or may not be on the winning line.

FIG. 28 shows a case where the player performs the first stop operation of the left stop button 10a and then the second stop operation of the right stop button 10c, and if the first stop operation is the correct answer, the FRU1 always wins a prize. , The bell symbol (small role explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line downward to the right, and 9 medals are paid out. However, although the bell pattern is displayed in a straight line in appearance, it may or may not be on the winning line.

FIG. 29 is a schematic diagram showing the symbol display state of the window portion in chronological order. However, since FIG. 29 (A) is the same as FIG. 27 (A), a duplicate description will be omitted.

When the player first stops the right stop button 10c in the incorrect answer operation order in the state of FIG. 29 (A), the main control unit 100 refers to the slip frame number table and the corresponding slip frame number. Based on the data, the right drum 2c is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and control is performed to always draw any one of the BAR symbol, the blue seven symbol, and the green pumpkin symbol into the effective line (FIG. 29 (Fig. 29). B) See). Therefore, one of the three small winning combinations is always stopped on the effective line. In this case, since the BAR symbol is stopped at the effective line, there is a possibility that only FRU10 will win at this point, and the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is stopped in the upper right row.

In the state of FIG. 29B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the left stop button 10a or the middle stop button 10b can be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation of the left stop button 10a, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is left in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The drum 2a is stopped, and if there is a BAR symbol within the pull-in range, stop control is performed to pull the symbol into the effective line (see FIG. 29 (C)). The 18th BAR symbol can be retracted when there are 5 symbols 18 to 2 on the effective line, so the attraction probability is 25% (5/20). If the 18th BAR symbol cannot be pulled in, the lost stitch symbol is stopped on the effective line, and the obstructive stitch (RT fluctuation trigger symbol) is displayed at the third stop.

In the state of FIG. 29 (C), the FRU 10 is tempered, and two bell symbols (small combination explicit symbols) are displayed in a straight line on the upper stage of the display window. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the middle stop button 10b may be operated, and when the player operates the middle stop button 10b for the third stop, the main control unit 100 The unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the middle drum 2b in the range of 0 frames to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and controls to draw the blue seven symbol into the effective line (FIG. FIG. 29 (D)). In the figure, FRU10 wins a prize, and the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line on the upper row, and nine medals are paid out. The 16th blue seven symbol can be pulled in when the 16th to 20th symbols are on the effective line, so the pull-in probability is 25% (5/20). On the other hand, if the blue seven symbol cannot be pulled into the effective line, the rugged eyes of the inhibitory role (smaller push order) are displayed (not shown). It should be noted that the same stop control will be omitted even when the middle stop button 10b in the incorrect answer operation order is operated in the first stop.

30 to 31 are schematic views showing the symbol display state of the window portion in chronological order. However, since FIG. 30 (A) is the same as FIG. 27 (A), a duplicate description will be omitted.

For example, when the main control unit 100 internally wins the push order cherry 2-1 shown in FIG. 25 by random number lottery, as described above, the condition device of FRU2 + FR10 + FRU23 + FRU36 is simultaneously operated (four different types of nine small winning combinations are simultaneously activated). Based on the operation order information (middle 1st) stored corresponding to the ROM 101, it is determined that the operation order in the middle is the winning operation order. In this state, the main control unit 100 executes a stop calculation process (process of pulling in the FRU2 symbol in the middle 1st) based on the winning combination, the stop control table, and the score information, and the player stops button unit 10 at what time and timing. Create a sliding frame number table so that stop control can be performed immediately even if you operate. Further, the sliding frame number table is similarly created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation (see the explanation in FIG. 10).

In the state of FIG. 30A, when the player first stops the middle stop button 10b in the correct operation order, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. Then, the middle drum 2b is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and control is performed to draw the bell symbol No. 5 into the effective line, for example. In the state of FIG. 30B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the left stop button 10a or the right stop button 10c can be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation of the right stop button 10c, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, in the range of 0 to 4 frames. The right drum 2c is stopped, and control is performed to draw the replay symbol into the effective line (see FIG. 30C). In the state of FIG. 30C, the FRU2 is tempered and the bell symbol (small combination explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the left stop button 10a may be operated, and when the left stop button 10a is operated for the third stop, the main control unit 100 , Refer to the sliding frame number table, stop the right drum 2c in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and one of the lower thin symbol / red cherry symbol / blue cherry symbol. Is stopped to be drawn into the effective line (see FIG. 30 (D)). As a result, if the first stop operation is correct, FRU2 will definitely win a prize, and the cherry symbol (small role of a specific single symbol: lower thin symbol / red cherry symbol / blue cherry symbol) will be displayed on the lower row of the left reel. Nine medals will be paid out. Therefore, the player feels that the single che (corner cherry) has won the prize, so there is no sense of discomfort. Here, the small role of a specific single pattern means a small role that impresses the player with (cherry, any, any).

FIG. 31 shows a case where the player performs the first stop operation of the middle stop button 10b and then the second stop operation of the left stop button 10a, and if the first stop operation is the correct answer, the FRU2 always wins a prize. , Cherry symbol or symbol symbol (small winning combination of a specific single symbol) is displayed at the bottom of the left reel (displayed in the winning mode of the small winning combination of the single symbol), and 9 medals are paid out.

FIG. 32 is a schematic view showing the pattern display state of the window portion in chronological order. However, since FIG. 32 (A) is the same as FIG. 27 (A), a duplicate description will be omitted.

When the player first stops the left stop button 10a in the incorrect answer operation order in the state of FIG. 32 (A), the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and the corresponding sliding frame number. Based on the data, the right drum 2c is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and control is performed to always draw any one of the BAR symbol, the upper thin symbol, and the green pumpkin symbol into the effective line (FIG. 32 (Fig. 32). B) See). Therefore, one of the three small winning combinations is always stopped on the effective line. In this case, since the BAR symbol is stopped at the effective line, at this point, only FRU10 may win, and the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is stopped at the upper left.

In the state of FIG. 32B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c can be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation of the right stop button 10c, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is right in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The drum 2c is stopped, and if there is a BAR symbol within the pull-in range, stop control is performed to pull the symbol into the effective line (see FIG. 32 (C)). The BAR symbol No. 12 can be retracted when there are five symbols Nos. 12 to 16 on the effective line, so the probability of attraction is 25% (5/20). If the BAR symbol No. 12 cannot be pulled in, the lost stitch symbol is stopped on the effective line, and at the third stop, the obstructive stitch (RT fluctuation trigger symbol) is displayed.

In the state of FIG. 32 (C), the FRU 10 is tempered, and two bell symbols (small combination explicit symbols) are displayed in a straight line on the upper stage of the display window. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the middle stop button 10b may be operated, and when the player operates the middle stop button 10b for the third stop, the main control unit 100 The unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the middle drum 2b in the range of 0 frames to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and controls to draw the blue seven symbol into the effective line (FIG. FIG. 32 (D)). In the figure, FRU10 wins a prize, and the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line on the upper row, and nine medals are paid out. The 17th blue seven symbol can be retracted when the 16th to 20th symbols are on the effective line, so the attraction probability is 25% (5/20). On the other hand, when the blue seven symbol cannot be drawn into the effective line, the bumpy stitches (for example, BAR symbol, bell symbol, BAR symbol) of the inhibitory role (pushing order small role) are displayed (not shown). Since the right-first incorrect answer operation has the same stop control logic, the description thereof will be omitted. Further, since the right first correct answer push order cherry role (right) has the same stop control logic, the explanation is omitted.

FIG. 33 is a game state transition diagram (RT state).

RT0 in the figure is an initial state (non-RT state) in which the winning probability of the replay combination (replay combination) does not fluctuate, and is a game immediately after the stage setting value is reset or an actual bonus game (BB1 to BB2: From the next game after the type 1 bonus continuous operation device) is completed, the general game starts in the initial state (also referred to as "initial replay state"). The replay winning probability (replay probability) in this general game is about 1 / 7.3, and in particular, RT1 transition replay (replay 1), RT2 transition replay (replay 2), and RT3 transition replay (replay 3) are internal. Since no winner is won, in order to shift from this state to RT1, the above-mentioned bumps of the push order small winning combination must be displayed on the effective line. On the other hand, even if BB1 (bonus 1) or BB2 (bonus 2) is internally won, activated by symbol display, or ended with a payout exceeding a predetermined number, only RT4, bonus game, and RT0 will occur, so this route will also shift to RT1. It is not possible.

In a general game in the RT0 state, a small push order (push order bell role or push order cherry role) is internally won, and if the stop operation procedure of the stop button 10 is mistaken, the Koboshi pattern is displayed on the effective line. Then, from the next game, it will be in the RT1 state (the number of continuous games is not fixed, that is, it is infinite). The replay probability in this RT1 state is also about 1 / 7.3, and most of the combinations shown in FIG. 23 are randomly drawn and can be won individually or at the same time. That is, the game in the initial state and the game in the RT1 state are in the game state of about 1 / 7.3, which has almost the same replay probability, but the normal game in which the player mainly stays is in this RT1 state. However, in this initial state, the RT1 transition replay to the RT3 transition replay are not won, so the transition from the RT1 state to the RT3 state cannot be performed unless the Koboshi pattern is displayed on the valid line.

When the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) is internally won in the RT1 state and the operation symbol is displayed on the valid line, the replay probability fluctuates and shifts to the RT2 state, but the replay probability is almost the same, about 1 /. It remains at 7.3 and often loses.

In the RT1 transition replay (replay 1), when the player operates the stop button portion 10, if the 6-choice pressing order is accidentally answered correctly and the RT3 transition replay is activated, the RT3 transition replay is activated, so that the RT1 transition is quickly performed. It has a function to drop it into a state (that is, the same function as a bumpy eye) (fall replay).

When the RT3 transition replay (replay 3) is internally won in the RT2 state, the 6-choice push order is correct, and the operation symbol is displayed on the valid line, the replay probability is almost the same, about 1 / 1.5 RT3 state. Will be. Further, the RT3 state is different from the RT1 state and the RT2 state in that the type of the winning replay combination and the size of the winning area are different. Then, the winning area of the replay role is narrowed to have an area that is lost at 655/65536 (about 1/100). The reason is that it is possible to give a sense of anticipation by giving the player an illusion of a reach eye by giving a lost eye. In the RT2 state or the RT3 state, when the grain of the bell role is displayed on the effective line, it falls to the RT1 state. In addition, in the RT2 state, the RT1 transition replay is not won in order not to fall to the RT1 state. On the other hand, in the RT3 state, the RT1 transition replay is won at the same time as either BB1 or BB2, and the player is internally elected by either BB1 or BB2 by shifting to the RT4 state without shifting to the RT1 state. (Specific action and effect).

The actual bonus (bonus 1 to bonus 2) can be won in the initial state, RT1 state, RT2 state and RT3 state, but since it is won at the same time as the small role or the replay role, it must go through the RT4 state inside the bonus. Or you will be able to win a prize. Bonus 1 is that when a BAR symbol is aimed at each drum in the single winning state, the BAR symbol apparently stops in a straight line on the upper right, and the number of payouts exceeds the specified number after the operation (after the bonus 1 game). And return to the initial replay state. The RT4 state is a state in which bonus 1 to bonus 2 are internally won (bonus carry-over state), and if a loss is drawn in this state, bonus 1 symbol to bonus 2 symbol can be aligned. The reason is that the symbol of the replay combination that the main control unit 100 has internally won is prioritized over the BAR symbol (bonus symbol), and the symbol of the small winning combination that is internally elected is prioritized over the BAR symbol. This is because the drum unit 2 is stopped and controlled so as to be pulled onto the line.

FIG. 34 is a game state transition diagram (effect state) and a normal mode number calculation table. FIG. 35 is an explanatory diagram of a game state (game mode number) managed by the main control unit. FIG. 36 is an explanatory diagram of zone processing in various modes.

The main control unit 100 controls the ball ejection performance, determines all the game states (game mode numbers) shown in FIG. 35, and manages information on which game state is currently in (mode number). The game status information) is notified to the sub-control unit 160. On the other hand, the sub-control unit 160 controls the effect, and only executes various effects based on the game state information received from the main control unit 100, and is irrelevant to the ball ejection performance.

The main control unit 100 manages the game state in 16 states of mode number 0 to mode number 15, mode number 0 is a normal state, mode number 1 is a CZ precursor state, mode number 2 is a CZ state, and mode number 3 Is the normal fighting party standby state, mode number 4 is the normal fighting party (during the actual game) state, mode number 5 is the normal fighting party (after the actual game) state, mode number 6 is the ART state, mode number 7 is the ART judge. Game state, mode number 8 is a heart-added specialized state, mode number 9 is a curse OPT state, mode number 10 is an ART fighting party standby state, mode number 11 is an ART fighting party (in real life) state, mode 12 number is At ART, the fighting party (after the actual game) state, the mode number 13 is the OPT state after the fighting party, the mode number 14 is the premier bonus state, and the mode number 15 is the ending state. In addition, OPT is a registered trademark of the applicant and is uttered as OP, which means buttock, penpen, and time.

In the normal state of mode number 0, the degree of expectation of acquiring CZ winning points changes by managing the number of games. The CZ precursor state of mode number 1 is a CZ latent state, and shifts to the CZ state of mode number 2 after a predetermined game determined by lottery. In the CZ state, when the game is executed in the chance zone of 20G and the winning conditions are cleared by the acquired points, the ART is won. The normal fighting party standby state of mode number 3 usually shifts to the case where the actual bonus is won in the CZ precursor, during CZ, and in the normal fighting party (after the actual bo).

The normal time fighting party (in the actual battle) state of mode number 4 is a battle game state in which the main character's HP (hit points) and the opponent's HP are scraped off. The HP of the main character decreases during the actual game, but it never becomes 0. By setting the HP of the other party to 0, you will win the ART and move to the preparation for ART. If you win before the end of the real bo, a heart stock lottery will be held to acquire hearts (game benefits) until the end of the real bo. The normal time fighting party (after the actual bo) state of mode number 5 is a section when the actual bo is finished and no conclusion has been reached. If the hero loses, he will definitely lose in this game section. By setting the opponent's HP to 0, you will win the ART and move to the preparation for ART.

The ART state of mode number 6 is an ART game called Shinkon Seikatsu, and the number of games is managed. When the remaining game becomes 0, the game shifts to the ART judge game state of mode number 7. In ART games, it is a game of acquiring a heart, which is a privilege in the game. In the ART judge game state, the game is played for the number of hearts, the winning lottery is executed each time, and when the winning (continuation condition is satisfied), the continuation is successful and the game returns to ART. When the heart is used up and becomes 0, it returns to normal.

The heart-adding specialized state of mode number 8 is a game in which a heart is added by shifting from the replay series during ART. A minimum of 2G is guaranteed, after which it will continue if the continuation conditions are met in the continuation lottery (average 5G). The curse OPT state of mode number 9 earns points when a rare role is established and nothing is won, and shifts when a certain number of points are earned. Execute the prince's curse OPT (OPT for sister characters) and add the number of games. It is fixed at 1G. The ART fighting party standby state of mode number 10 is a gaming state that shifts when an actual bonus is won after the ART is being prepared.

The ART-time fighting party (in the real world) state of mode number 11 is a battle game state in which the HP of the main character and the HP of the opponent are scraped off. The HP of the main character decreases during the actual game, but it never becomes 0. By setting the HP of the other party to 0, the OPT is confirmed. When the actual game is finished, the game shifts to the OPT game. If you win before the end of the real bo, damage points will be accumulated and added until the end of the real bo. The ART time fighting party (after the actual bo) state of the mode 12 number is a game section when the actual bo is finished but the conclusion is not reached. If the hero loses, he will definitely lose in this game section. By setting the opponent's HP to 0, the game shifts to the OPT game.

In the OPT state after the fighting party of mode number 13, the fighting party is won, and the number of games is added by performing OPT against the defeated opponent character. It is fixed at 1G. The premier bonus state of mode number 14 is a premier game that rushes into a part of the fighting party, and the premier flag is set. Perform OPT for 4 people against characters 1 to 4. The premiere of the middle cherry will be confirmed. Mode number 15 is an ending state that shifts when the boss character character 5 is defeated.

When the stage set value is reset, the main control unit 100 executes the setting change process, clears and sets various data according to the set value, and sets the initial state, so that the player can start the normal game. .. In this setting change process, first, a lottery for starting points of the number of games at the time of setting change is executed, and a lottery for the position (number of games) of the number of elapsed games in the table that manages the CZ expected value is performed. The normal mode No. is determined for each range of the number of games, and the "through No." is determined by lottery. For example, if 8 is selected as the through number in the lottery, the main control unit 100 selects the data "256" immediately before the end point game "288" corresponding to the through number 8 as the number of elapsed games. This number of elapsed games is also called the number of digestion games, and corresponds to the distance to the ceiling game, so it is advantageous for the player to select a large value. Assuming that the ceiling game is 777 games and the number of elapsed games is 256 games, the ceiling is reached with the remaining 521 games (777 games-256 games) (ceiling reaching state).

The number of elapsed games is 1 when the lever is effectively operated in the normal state and during the CZ precursor in the non-bonus internal state, while 0 is cleared when the game shifts to ART. However, 1 is added in the game in which the bonus is won. The main control unit 100 subtracts the number of games from the current number of elapsed games in order from No0, and sets the value of the normal No corresponding to the through No to a value of 0 or less as the mode No. For example, if the number of elapsed games is 112, the number of games corresponding to No. 0 is subtracted from 32 games to obtain 80 games. Since the value is not 0 or less, the main control unit 100 obtains 48 games by subtracting 32 games, which is the number of games corresponding to No. 1 through 80 games. Since the value is not 0 or less, the main control unit 100 obtains 16 games by subtracting 32 games of the number of games corresponding to No. 2 from 48 games. Since the value is not 0 or less, the main control unit 100 subtracts 32 games, which is the number of games corresponding to No. 3 through 16 games, to obtain -16 games. Since the value is 0 or less, the main control unit 100 sets “3” of the normal mode No. corresponding to the through No. 3 as the mode value. There are four types of normal mode Nos, 0 to 3, but the larger the value, the easier it is to accumulate points for shifting to CZ (chance zone), and when it reaches 100 points, the transition to CZ is confirmed.

Next, the main control unit 100 executes a "curse PT lottery" and a "normal point lottery" for winning the CZ when the setting is changed. For example, the main control unit 100 sets a “curse point” by adding a predetermined value “2” to a numerical value drawn in the range of 0 to 7. Further, the main control unit 100 sets the value obtained by adding the predetermined value "36" to the numerical value drawn from 0 to 63 as the "normal point". As a result, the normal points are 36 to 99 points. As the above-mentioned processing of the ceiling game, when the ART interval is 777G (the number of elapsed games), the ceiling is reached, but the CZ clear and the fighting party clear are confirmed. In other words, when the player reaches the ceiling, the transition condition is satisfied, and the game shifts to the CZ game, the game is cleared and the player wins. In addition, when the ceiling is reached, the transition conditions are met, and when the battle is transferred, it becomes clear and wins. In the case of CZ, the result of the CZ clear point lottery after 777G is set to 0, and in the case of the fighting party, the HP of the enemy is set to 0 when the bonus is won after 777G. Therefore, it will definitely be a success in the CZ judge game after 777G.

The RT2 state described with reference to FIG. 33 is used as a "tsundere zone" when it shifts to normal. When shifting to another RT state from here, the "Tsundere zone" ends (see FIG. 36). If the game shifts to the RT3 state during normal times and the reverse push Cinderella replay is won during the RT3 state, it becomes the "Cinderella zone" and the winning rare role (replay) and push order bell are completely navigated for 10 games. There is a zone state flag, which means that 1 is the "Tsundere zone" and 2 is the "Cinderella zone". Replay A (RT2 transition lip) is not an alternative, and Replay A wins regardless of the push order. Replay B (RT3 transition lip) is a 6-choice correct answer and transitions to RT3. Maintain RT with incorrect answers. Replay C (RT1 transition lip) is a 3-choice correct answer and maintains RT. Move to RT1 with an incorrect answer.
RT1 and ART preparation flag is 1, processing when lip A is pulled, processing whether to put in tsundere state when pulling lip B1 at RT3, setting to Cinderella zone when pulling Cinderella lip The processing, the conversion processing of the reverse push cherry, and the processing of whether or not to subtract the zone remaining game are as shown in FIG.

"Normal time, CZ precursor lottery": Normal point lottery is executed. At normal times, the normal point reference table No. can be calculated from the fixed value table, and the normal point lottery for CZ winning is performed using this. The points to be acquired are obtained by multiplying this table by the value that can be calculated in the fixed value table. If the normal points exceed 100, -100 is added to the normal points and 1 is added to the CZ stock counter. CZ is won and the next game shifts to "CZ precursor".

Lottery for the number of latent games at the time of winning CZ: The number of games to be played (CZ precursor) when shifting to CZ winning (CZ precursor) at normal times is drawn. On the contrary, even if the CZ stock counter is 1 or more when returning to the normal state, the number of games is drawn. The number of CZ precursor games is subtracted by 1 at 1G when the sub state is CZ precursor and non-interior. Move to (CZ) in the next game that becomes 0G.

Clear point lottery at the time of CZ winning: When the number of hidden games at the time of CZ winning is drawn, the CZ clear points are drawn. In the point acquisition lottery during CZ, points during CZ are cumulatively added, and when the CZ clear point is reached, CZ becomes successful and the game shifts to ART. If the number of elapsed games in the normal time is 777 games, the clear point is set to 0.

Lottery during CZ: This is a chance zone where a predetermined number of 20G fixed points are accumulated and judged. You can select 4 types of production (character). In the middle of CZ, you may rush into a ball. In that case, add to the damage dealt based on the CZ medium points and clear points accumulated so far. Damage dealt = Enemy HP- (Clear point-Point in CZ) is calculated. If you lose in the fighting party, you will not return to CZ but will return to normal time, but if you have CZ stock, you will shift to CZ precursor. When CZ starts, 20 is set for the number of remaining CZ games, and the CZ stock counter is also subtracted by 1. The number of remaining CZ games is subtracted by 1 when the game is non-internal and not internal. After the next game of the game in which the CZ middle points reach the CZ clear points, the heart stock lottery described later will be performed. If the clear point is reached when the number of remaining CZ games becomes 0, the game shifts from the next game to ART. If the clear point has not been reached, the process shifts to CZ precursors during normal times or if there is CZ stock.

CZ medium point lottery: Points are drawn and the value multiplied by the value that can be calculated in the fixed value table is added to the CZ medium points. At the final game of CZ, if the points in CZ are equal to or higher than the CZ clear points, the ART is won and the game shifts to ART. If the push order bell is won, if there is no payout, a point lottery will be drawn as a loss. On the other hand, if there is a payout, points will be drawn as a winning combination group for the bell. However, when navigating the push order bell, it is treated as a winning combination group for the bell regardless of the payout. The final game of CZ is judged at the time of the lever, and the push order bell is won, and it is treated as a winning combination group for the bell.
Processing inside the bonus: (normal time), (CZ precursor), (CZ), (when the actual bonus is inside at the time of the normal ball (after the actual ball), it shifts to the normal fighting party standby. , ART ~ Judge, If you are inside the real bonus at the time of the ART ball (real bo), you will shift to the ART ball standby.

Normal fighting party waiting process: The lottery related to payouts will not be executed during the section (inside the inside) until the bonuses that shift to normal times are prepared. If the bonuses are complete, the destination will be the regular fighting party or the premier BB.

ART fighting party waiting process: The lottery related to paying out is not executed in the section (inside the inside) until the bonuses to be transferred at the time of ART are prepared. As a special process, if you win a bonus and win with that G during the regular fighting party (after the actual battle), you will get 100 damage by winning the bonus. It shifts to the normal fighting party standby, and the introduction movie of the character is played at the start of the actual game without changing the character. When the fighting party (actual bo) is over, it will shift to ART. Initially it is 40G, and while the real bo is being digested, a heart stock lottery will be held.

ART processing: It is called Shintama Seikatsu, and it is a game in which a female character lives together with a prince character and accumulates hearts. When there are no more games left, the game shifts to the judge game. When the role of Rare is won, a lottery for adding heart stock will be executed, and a lottery for transition to the heart stock special zone will also be performed in the Lip Ren (replay continuous). In addition, a lottery of OPT for adding the number of games called curse OPT will be held. Only at the start of ART from normal (so-called first hit), the process of adding one heart is performed.

Heart type lottery: A type lottery is performed when entering the ART for the first time, when acquiring a heart during ART, or when acquiring a heart when specializing in adding hearts. Only the first one is stored as a type, and after that, only the number is managed. The maximum number is 255 + 1. The type also draws when the stock is consumed by failing during the judge game. After the number of ART games becomes 0, this "heart" shifts to the judge game and performs 1G continuous judgment for each heart it has. There are different types of hearts, and six types of continuation rates are fixed for each character. A continuous lottery is performed based on the continuation rate set for the heart to be used, and if the continuation is won, an additional lottery is performed and the player returns to ART. If you succeed (if you win the continuation), you can use the heart you are using again next time without consuming it. In other words, in theory, with one heart, it is possible to return to ART forever. If the continuous lottery fails, the heart is subtracted by 1, and when it becomes 0, the ART ends and the process shifts to normal. If the heart still exists even if the continuous lottery fails (if it is 1 or more), the next game will be the judge game again. Since the continuation rate is added according to the winning combination in the judge game, the continuation rate may exceed 100% depending on the winning combination. In that case, success is confirmed. In addition, when the judge succeeds, the carry-over continuation rate addition lottery is performed according to the winning combination, so the more successful the judge, the higher the continuation rate. However, the maximum value of the heart continuation rate + carry-over continuation rate is 70%. On the other hand, if the judge game fails, this carry-over continuation rate is cleared and becomes 0.

Heart stock addition lottery: During ART, a heart stock addition lottery is performed according to the winning combination group. If one or more heart stocks are won and the heart type is not set, a heart type lottery is performed to set it. On the other hand, if the heart type is set, the lottery value is added to the heart stock. The lottery opportunity for Heartstock is from the next game where the enemy HP is set to 0 at the fighting party (in the actual game) to the end of the actual game during ART, until the next game that exceeds the clear points during the CZ to the end of the CZ. There are four game states in the bonus.

Curse point addition lottery: If the heart stock addition lottery is not won and the fighting party (Type 1 BB) is also not won, the lottery is executed. A lottery will be held for points to be added to the curse points, but the rarer the winning combination, the higher the points to be added. The lottery is executed even when the bonus is won, but 0 points are always selected in order to prevent the bonus from being won and the curse points not being acquired. When the setting is changed, the curse point starts from the value obtained by adding +2 to the value drawn from 0 to 7, and when it reaches 10 Pt, 10 pt is subtracted to win the curse OPT, and the game shifts to the curse OPT from the next game. The curse OPT itself ends in 1G. At the end of ART, the curse points are carried over without being cleared.

Replay consecutive heart addition special zone winning lottery: Every time 5 or more consecutive replays (up to 8 consecutive) are won, a lottery will be held to determine whether or not to move to the heart addition special zone. If you win this lottery, you will clear 0 replays and move to the heart special zone from the next game. The special zone will continue for 2G or more (continuous lottery). Lip Ren is not cleared in the role of Rare. However, when the current sub state (directing state) is changed to another sub state, the Lip Ren is cleared. If you win Replay B1, you will be in a 100% tsundere state during non-zone and at RT3.

Cinderella zone lottery during ART: If you are not in the Tsundere zone or Cinderella zone during ART and you win the reverse push Cinderella replay (including Tempai and Loss), this lottery will be held. If you win, the reverse push navigation will appear, but if you have all the Cinderella, you will be in the Cinderella zone (fixed 10G) from the next game. Reverse push cherry type lip (weak / medium / strong) The probability of reverse push navigation at the time of winning is higher than the tsundere zone (100% fixed by logic). When the reverse push cherry type replay is won, (1) normal time → no reverse push, (2) tsundere → 25% navigation, (3) Cinderella → 100% navigation.

As a process when shifting to ART, if there are few remaining ART games, add a heart, or after shifting to the ART fighting party (actual bo), return to ART, if the remaining ART games are less than 5G, the remaining ART Overwrite the game with 5G. For the remaining ART games, 1 is subtracted (BB winning game is subtracted) during ART and non-internal. When transitioning to ART, "5G" is set as the opening game, and during the opening, if the curse points are added and it becomes 9 or more, it is overwritten with 9. The number of remaining ART games is subtracted as a process for not transitioning to the curse OPT.

In the lottery during the ART judge game, a continuous lottery is performed using hearts, and one game can be executed for each heart. If the continuation is successful, the heart remains, which is advantageous to the player. If the continuation fails, one heart is consumed, and if there are no more hearts, the ART ends. The heart when it is inside the bonus will be confirmed continuously. A fixed retention rate is set for each type of heart. The continuation lottery is performed based on the total continuation rate of the winning combination and the carry-over continuation rate (fixed continuation rate + role continuation rate + carry-over continuation rate), and if successful, the judge continuation rate addition lottery described later Is added to the carry-over continuation rate, and the carry-over is carried over to the next time. The upper limit of carry-over is 70% at the maximum, and if it exceeds 70%, it is rewritten to 70%, and the continuation rate of the winning combination in the G is added to perform a continuous lottery.

Judge continuation rate addition lottery: When the judge game is successful, the value to be added to the "carry-over continuation rate" is determined by lottery according to the winning combination. Since the "carry-over continuation rate" will be carried over to the next judge, the total continuation rate will be the sum of the results of the "carry-over continuation rate", "heart continuation rate", and "fixed continuation rate of the next winner". Perform a rate lottery.

Lottery for the number of additional games by heart: When the judge by the heart succeeds, the lottery for the number of additional games is executed according to the type of heart.

Judge Game Mid Ceiling: Has a Judge Failure Counter, which is initially 0. Adds each time a judge fails, and when the number reaches 10, (the next judge who fails a total of 9 times will always succeed), the process of rewriting the judge to success is executed. During ART, the counter will not be cleared even if the judge succeeds. However, if it succeeds due to the ceiling, it will be cleared to 0. When returning to normal, 0 clear processing is executed.

Lottery in the special zone for adding hearts: This is a zone where you can always get the hearts used in the judge game, and basically it will continue for several games. With a minimum of 2G guarantee, a continuous lottery will be held after that. However, if the bonus is won, it will be forcibly terminated and 10 hearts will be acquired as a privilege.

In the heart-added number lottery, the heart-added number lottery is executed according to the winning combination. In the heart-added specialization continuation lottery, if there is no internal or bonus prize, a lottery is executed to decide whether or not to continue the heart-addition specialization zone. If you win the lottery, the special zone for adding hearts will continue. As a process when the bonus is won, a process of doubling (predetermined times) the heart stock acquired in the heart addition special zone is executed in order to make up for the amount that is not drawn by adding a heart. In addition, after adding at least 10 pieces, the heart specialization will end, and it will shift to ART fighting party standby.

As a lottery during the curse OPT, the character lottery at the time of the curse OPT: The character performing the OPT is drawn from the ally characters.

Continuation rate lottery for each OPT table No .: For each character, a lottery for the continuation rate used in OPT is performed for each OPT table No. determined according to the small winning combination. There are about 10 types of table numbers.

Lottery for the number of games with the OPT1 pen: The main control unit 100 transmits the number of additional games for each operation of the operation button (1 pen) to the sub control unit 160. The main control unit 100 similarly transmits the number of additional games to the sub control unit 160 when the armor breaks (two breaks and the final negative shot).

Number of additional games at the time of armor break Lottery: Every time the number of endurance of armor (fixed value table) becomes 0 for each character, the lottery for the number of additional games is executed. The armor is fixed for each character in two stages. As the third stage, the durability value for the final negative shot and the number of additional games will be drawn separately.

Armor endurance value lottery for final negative shots: Determined by lottery to determine the endurance value of the third stage of armor. If you use the pen for the number of times of this durability value, the final negative shot will be successful and the number of additional games will be drawn. This value is displayed with a large addition at the end of OPT.

Lottery during OPT after the fighting party: Basically, the same table as the curse OPT is used to draw the number of additional games. Execute OPT using the enemy character No. that was fighting. The migration destination after the end of OPT changes depending on the RT status. If it is RT0 to RT2, it shifts to ART preparation, while if it is RT3, it shifts to ART.

At the fighting party, the shaving battle production of the friendly HP and the enemy HP is displayed, and the lottery is executed during the fighting party. During the actual bonus (about 21G), it will be in the state after returning to the initial stage. If the victory or defeat is not decided at the end of the actual bonus, the fighting party will continue even after returning to the non-internal state. The sub-states are divided into the fighting party (in the real world) and the fighting party (non-internal). Furthermore, since the roles are different between normal time and ART, the sub-states are separated. In normal times, if you play against an enemy character and defeat the enemy, ART will be confirmed. During ART, if you play against an enemy character and defeat the enemy, the OPT will be confirmed. Your HP is fixed at 100, and your enemy HP is also fixed at 100. On the other hand, if it is in a free state, it is changed to 50 to 80 for each character. As a process during the actual bonus, your HP is reduced to only 1, so you will not lose during the actual bonus.

Enemy character lottery at the start of the fighting party: During normal times or during ART, the characters to be played are decided by lottery according to the number of battles. If this lottery is performed during 5 battles, the number of battles will be set to 1, while if the enemy boss is defeated, the number of battles will remain 1.

HP subtraction lottery at the start of the normal fighting party: If you win during CZ, the lottery will be executed to reduce the points to be reduced from the character HP based on the CZ earned points. The table is changed according to the difference between the clear points and the earned points. Normally, this lottery is not performed.

Damage dealt lottery: The damage given to the enemy is drawn by number (fixed value table) according to the winning combination group and the enemy character. Since the multiplier is assigned to each number, the value multiplied by that multiplier is the damage dealt. I have two magnifications, one for the regular fighting party and one for the ART fighting party. During the actual bo, (1) bell (attacker), (2) beberi (control change bell), (3) replay, (4) reverse push seven alignment, (5) reverse push seven alignment, (6) weak There are medium-strong cherry replays and (7) reverse push weak medium-strong cherry replays. During the actual game, if the damage dealt is 0 in Beberi, a lottery will be held. After the end of the actual game, if the damage dealt is 0 at the time of loss, a lottery for damage will be performed.

Damaged lottery: If the damage is beveled or not inside, it is lost, and when the damage dealt is 0, a lottery is performed for each enemy character. As the main lottery condition, the damage dealt is 0, and the lottery of the damage that oneself receives when it is not a replay or a bell is performed. However, the damage lottery will not be held in the 1st G of the fighting party.

Seven-Eleven lottery for each remaining HP: If you haven't defeated your opponent, draw a lottery to decide whether or not to treat your opponent as Seven when you draw a reverse-push Seven-Eleven lip according to your HP. If you win, the type of winning combination such as the damage lottery will be changed and the damage dealt will be 100, so the victory will be confirmed.

Invincible lottery at the time of entering the fighting party: When entering the fighting party, an invincible lottery is performed according to the enemy character, and if this is won, the HP will not become 0 at the fighting party (after the actual bo), so the victory will be confirmed.

HP recovery lottery by rip at the time of the fighting party: A lottery will be held to see if you will recover HP during the replay during the fighting party. If you win, the HP for the lottery value will be added. As a process when the ART fighting party is defeated, when you lose to the ART fighting party (after the actual game) and return to the next game ART, 1 is added to the curse points, so from the game after the opening to the curse OPT Transition.

Premier lottery: If a freeze occurs at the start of the bonus, it will be a premier bonus, and the OPT of 4 people will be confirmed, and the expected number of acquired cards will be 3000. In the case of a lottery when the bonus is won and the middle cherry + BB, the premier lottery will be executed at the start of the fighting party. At the start of the fighting party, a lottery will be drawn to determine whether or not to shift to the premier state, and if won, the sub state will shift to the premier fighting party. At the premier ball, four people OPT, and out of the 17 bell payouts, at the time of the last four bells, characters 1 to 4 are set with fixed value data specified according to the winning combination. The OPT process is executed with the lottery value. For the middle cherry, when you win, the bonus will be confirmed and the premier fighting party will be confirmed at the same time. Since the premier fighting party will be elected even during ART, the expected number of sheets by the premiere will be 3000.

When the boss character (fifth character) is defeated in the ART fighting party, the ending state is entered. The ending state is fixed at 5G, and if a bonus is drawn in the middle, it will end at that point. After the end, it shifts to ART.

FIG. 37 is a special addition screen (see FIG. 37 (A)) and a flowchart showing a processing procedure of the special addition lottery (see FIG. 37 (B)). Further, FIG. 38 is a schematic view of a special addition screen (screen of the addition game 2). The special addition means OPT.

When an additional game (any OPT) is selected in this additional game, the main control unit 100 has a puncture rate (or a loop rate, which is a continuation decision probability, or a continuation rate), which is an end determination probability. And the additional loop lottery process for determining the additional value is executed using the additional lottery table. There is a contradictory relationship between the puncture rate and the continuation rate, and the puncture rate is 5% (decided to end once in 20 times) and the continuation rate is 95% (decided to continue 19 times in 20 times). Is actually synonymous.

If you defeat an enemy character during an ART game, which is an advantageous game, or if you get a predetermined point (for example, get 1000 points), the additional condition (addition) will be triggered when any one of them is achieved. The start condition of game 2) is satisfied. In addition, it is established when the ART lottery during BB is won, or when a mission such as winning a bell three times in a predetermined game during ART is achieved.

The main control unit 100 calls this subroutine when the special addition condition (addition game 2) is satisfied in the ART game (advantageous game) and the special addition lottery process is executed (see FIG. 37 (B)). .. When the main control unit 100 shifts to step S200, the main control unit 100 selects one character to be used for this special additional lottery by lottery from a plurality of enemy characters. Then, when the main control unit 100 shifts to step S200, the addition form lottery is executed to determine the normal addition or the special addition. There are two types of special additions, special addition 1 to special addition 3, special addition 1 (speed addition) is to extract two random numbers and execute the lottery for the number of additional games twice, and special addition 2 (power addition) is. One random number is extracted to double the number of additional games lottery result, and special addition 3 (technique addition) is to reduce the HP (hit points) of the character by four times as much as the normal addition. In this case, the leftmost character A is selected from the six characters, and usually the addition is determined by lottery. The addition form is designed to be recognized by the player depending on the type of stick (commonly referred to as "pen pen stick") possessed by the character A. In other words, in the case of normal addition, the normal stick shown in the figure is displayed, but in special addition 1, the speed stick is displayed, in special addition 2, the power stick is displayed, and in special addition 3, the technique stick is displayed. Is displayed.

A guaranteed game number lottery table is provided according to the selected character A and the defeated enemy boss (enemy character). Further, in this guaranteed game number lottery table, the expected value fluctuates according to the stage setting value. For example, six guaranteed game number lottery tables are provided corresponding to the combination of character A and the enemy boss, but when the stage setting value is 6, the expected value of the guaranteed game number lottery is 16 times, the stage setting value. When is 5, the expected value of the guaranteed game number lottery is 14 times, when the stage setting value is 4, the expected value of the guaranteed game number lottery is 12 times, and when the stage setting value is 3, the expected value of the guaranteed game number lottery is Is 9 times, when the stage setting value is 2, the expected value of the guaranteed game number lottery is 7 times, and when the stage setting value is 1, the expected value of the guaranteed game number lottery is 5 times. It is decided in advance. Then, the main control unit 100 uses these guaranteed game number lottery tables in step S210 to automatically determine the number of guaranteed games by lottery, and proceeds to step S220.

The main control unit 100 executes a winning combination lottery in the start operation in this game, and when the process proceeds to step S220, the main control unit 100 executes an additional loop rate lottery according to the winning combination. The additional loop rate is the probability of winning. For example, assuming 90%, the probability of winning is 90% and the probability of losing is 10%. There are two types of additional loop rate lottery tables, one is selected when a rare role is won, and the other is selected for a non-rare role. As a matter of course, the expected value of the additional loop rate lottery table selected when the rare role is won is about 2 to 3 times higher than that of the table other than the rare role. Further, as described above, the expected value fluctuates according to the step setting value.

When the main control unit 100 shifts to step S230, the main control unit 100 extracts one random number using the determined additional game number lottery table, and executes the additional lottery once in the normal addition. In this additional game number lottery table, the random number value is 0 to N1 for 1 game, the random number value is N1 + 1 to N2 for 2 games, the random number value is N2 + 1 to N3 for 5 games, and the random number value is N3 + 1 to N4 for 10 games. The value of the game and the random number is N4 + 1 to N5 (5-bit 255) and is predetermined as in 10 games. In special addition 1 (speed addition), two random numbers are extracted (at least two or more random numbers are extracted), and the number of additional games lottery is executed twice to determine the two additional values. Special addition 2 (power addition) extracts one random number and doubles the number of additional games lottery result (extracts one random number and multiplies the value determined by an integer to determine the additional value, or the value Is multiplied by a predetermined value to determine a predetermined value), and one additional value is determined. Then, in the special addition 3 (technique addition), one random number is extracted and the addition lottery is executed once in the same manner as the normal addition. In addition, a predetermined 1 point (predetermined point) is subtracted from the HP of the character for each additional game number lottery, but only the special additional 3 (technique addition) is multiplied by 4 times the predetermined 1 point (predetermined point). 4 points are subtracted from HP. Each character has three HPs, which are first subtracted from HP1 and become 0. When the first additional lottery condition is satisfied, the first special additional lottery is executed and the first special additional value is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. .. Further, the main control unit 100 subtracts from HP2 for each additional game number lottery, and when it becomes 0 and the second additional lottery condition is satisfied, the second special additional lottery is executed and the second special additional value is calculated. It is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. Then, the main control unit 100 subtracts from HP3 for each additional game number lottery, and when it becomes 0 and the third additional lottery condition is satisfied, the third special additional lottery is executed and the third special additional value is added. It is transmitted to the control unit 160. The expected value of the first special additional value is about 50 games, the expected value of the second special additional value is about 100 games, and the expected value of the third special additional value is about 300 games. Since HP is subtracted by 4 times, special addition is likely to occur, and depending on the selected character, the first addition lottery condition is satisfied within the guaranteed number of games with high probability. The sub-control unit 160 individually stores the received first special additional value to the third special additional value, and when these special additional values are received, it is possible to execute an effect related to the special additional value. For example, the sub-control unit 160 executes an effect of gradually destroying the character's armor according to the first special additional value to the third special additional value.

When the process proceeds to step S235, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not the upper limit value N (allowable number of transmissions) has been exceeded. For example, assuming that the upper limit value N is 100 times, the main control unit 100 transmits an additional value to the sub control unit 160 up to 100 times in step S240, and adds the additional value to the total number of remaining games (total remaining value). Although it is added, after 101 times, it is only added to the total number of remaining games, and the additional value is not transmitted to the sub-control unit 160. The sub-control unit 160 individually (separately) stores the additional values received from the main control unit 100 in the order in which they are received. This has a peculiar effect that the storage capacity of the sub-control unit 160 can be reduced. In addition, the remaining total number value is the remaining number of winnings of the push order small winning combination related to the ART game, the remaining number of payouts, and the like. However, the main control unit 100 always transmits the first special additional value to the third special additional value regardless of the upper limit value N.

When the main control unit 100 shifts to step S250, it determines whether or not there is a guaranteed number of games, and if it is not 0 (if it is 1 or more), it shifts to step S280 and subtracts 1 from the guaranteed number of games. Return to step S230. In other words, step S250 can be said to be a determination as to whether or not the guaranteed number of games has been exhausted. That is.

When the guaranteed number of games becomes 0 in step S250 and the game proceeds to step S260, the main control unit 100 draws a lottery for the number of additional games to be continued according to the determined additional loop rate (in this case, the winning rate is 90%). For example, if a count value is extracted at random timing using an 8-bit counter that fluctuates in the range of 0 to 255 and the range of 0 to 229 is hit, the winning rate is about 90%, and the winning rate is about 90%. If this is the case (when the continuation condition is satisfied), the process returns to step S230 and the additional loop lottery is automatically executed by itself. When the main control unit 100 ends in step S270 (when the end condition is satisfied), the main control unit 100 transmits the calculated remaining total number of games (remaining total number value) to the sub control unit 160, and performs an additional loop lottery process. End the subroutine. The main control unit 100 controls the continuation and termination of the ART game and the transition to the judgment game based on the remaining total value. That is, the main control unit 100 can execute the additional loop lottery process of repeating the additional lottery in order to determine the additional value of the advantageous game, and the lottery for determining whether or not to end the additional loop lottery process. Is a control means that can be repeatedly executed.

The sub-control unit 160 individually (separately) stores the additional values received from the main control unit 100 in the order of reception, and the number of additional games is the first, the second, the third, the first, and the fourth. It shows that 1 was won in the 5th and 5th times, 1 in the 6th time, 50 in the 7th time, 1 in the 8th time, and 1 in the 9th time, and a total of 64 times were won (see FIG. 38 (A)). The main control unit 100 executes this series of additional lottery processes, but the process is performed in a short time (about 10 ms) from the execution of the winning combination lottery in the start operation to the activation of the operation of the stop button unit 10. Will be done.

FIG. 83 is an explanatory diagram of a method for determining an additional value.

The method of determining the additional value using the number of additional games lottery table has been described, but there are the following as other methods of determining the additional value.

The random number value is composed of a plurality of bits (8 bits in this case) that take a value of either 0 or 1. For example, an 8-bit random number is acquired, and the additional value is determined based on the number of consecutive 1s from the least significant bit (this is a specific bit). Specifically, the main control unit 100 acquires an 8-bit random number, confirms whether or not the least significant bit is 1, and if it is 0, converts it to a decimal number and adds 1 (it becomes 1). .. On the other hand, if it is 1, it is confirmed whether or not the next high-order bit is 1, and if it is 0, it is converted into a decimal number and 1 is added (it becomes 2). On the other hand, if it is 1, it is confirmed whether or not the next high-order bit is 1, and if it is 0, it is converted into a decimal number and 1 is added (it becomes 4). On the other hand, if it is 1, it is confirmed whether or not the next high-order bit is 1, and if it is 0, it is converted into a decimal number and 1 is added (it becomes 8).

On the other hand, if it is 1, it is confirmed whether or not the next high-order bit is 1, and if it is 0, it is converted into a decimal number and 1 is added (16). On the other hand, if it is 1, it is confirmed whether or not the next high-order bit is 1, and if it is 0, it is converted into a decimal number and 1 is added (it becomes 32). On the other hand, if it is 1, it is confirmed whether or not the next high-order bit is 1, and if it is 0, it is converted into a decimal number and 1 is added (64). On the other hand, if it is 1, it is confirmed whether or not the next high-order bit (MSB) is 1, and if it is 0, it is converted into a decimal number and 1 is added (128). On the other hand, since the MSB is 1 at the end, it is converted into a decimal number and 1 is added (it becomes 256). Since the main control unit 100 performs the addition processing by logic in this way, there is an advantage that the lottery table becomes unnecessary.

For example, the probability of the least significant bit xxxxxxx0 is 50%, and the number of consecutive 1's from the least significant bit is 0, so the value obtained by adding 1 to the decimal number (that is, 0) is added. It is an additional game (1 game). The reason is that it is uncomfortable to display 0 even though the player has won the prize. However, in the additional game, only the amount converted to a decimal number may be added, and 1 may not be added.

The probability of the lower bit xxxxxx01 is 25%, and the number of consecutive 1s from the lowest bit is one, so the game is to add 1 to the decimal number (that is, 1). (2 games). The probability of the lower bit xxxxx011 is 12.5%, and there are two consecutive 1s from the lowest, so the game is to add 1 to the decimal number (that is, 3). (4 games). The probability of the lower bit xxxx0111 is 6.25%, and the number of consecutive 1s from the lowest bit is 3, so the value obtained by adding 1 to the decimal number (that is, 7). Is added to the game (8 games). The probability of the lower bit xxx01111 is 3.12%, and the number of consecutive 1's from the lowest bit is 4, so the game is added by adding 1 to the decimal number (that is, 15). (16 games). The probability of the lower bit xx011111 is 1.56%, and the number of consecutive 1s from the lowest bit is 5, so the value obtained by adding 1 to the decimal number (that is, 31). Is an additional game (32 games).

The probability of the lower bit x0111111 is 0.78%, and the number of consecutive 1's from the lowest bit is 6, so the game is added by adding 1 to the decimal number (that is, 63). (64 games). The probability of all bits 01111111 is 0.39%, and there are 7 consecutive 1s from the bottom, so add 1 to the decimal number (that is, 127) in the game. (128 games). The probability of all bits 11111111 is 0.39%, and there are eight consecutive 1s from the bottom, so add 1 to the decimal number (that is, 255). (256 games). According to this method, the average number of additional games is about 5.

Although a specific bit is set as the least significant bit, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment. For example, a specific bit may be the most significant bit (MSB), and the additional value may be determined based on the number of consecutive 1s toward the lower bits. A specific bit may be set as the fourth bit, and it may be confirmed whether or not the next high-order bit is 1, and when the MSB is reached, the MLB may be turned around and confirmed. Although it is confirmed whether or not it is 1 from the least significant bit to the high-order bit, the additional value may be determined based on the number of consecutive 0s instead of 1. Further, the confirmation order may be determined by the discrete bits (for example, 0 bit → 2 bit → 4 bit → 6 bit → 1 bit → 3 bit → 5 bit → 7 bit) or a random value determined by lottery at that time. .. For example, the confirmation order is determined by a gacha lottery in which values 0 to 7 from 0 bits (MLB) to 7 bits (MSB) are put in one box and selected one by one.

When the main control unit 100 receives the operation of any of the stop switches while all three reel drums are rotating, the main control unit 100 does not normally perform the delay processing (freeze processing) of the game when the additional lottery is executed. , The delay processing is performed on the condition that the special addition lottery 1 to 3 is executed. In the case of a normal additional lottery, the main control unit 100 sets a timer with a minimum operation interval of 210 ms when the first stop operation is received, and accepts the second stop operation with the lapse of 210 ms from the operation as the minimum condition. On the other hand, in the case of the special addition lottery, the main control unit 100 executes the delay process when the first stop operation is accepted, and stops the progress of the main game until a predetermined time (about 5 seconds) elapses. To do. As a result, the player cannot perform the second stop operation until a predetermined time has elapsed from the first stop operation. When the sub control unit 160 receives a freeze command for a predetermined time (about 5 seconds) from the main control unit 100, the sub control unit 160 displays on the display effect device 11 a special effect indicating that a special addition lottery has been performed during the delay process. In addition to the discomfort that the player cannot perform the next operation, the special effect greatly increases the expectation for the additional game.

The sub-control unit 160 is an effect control means for controlling the additional effect related to the additional value, and is a condition for starting the additional effect after the game in which the special additional condition (addition game 2) is satisfied (after the third stop operation). Is established, and the operation of the special button 14 (operation switch) is enabled. At the time of this activation, the sub-control unit 160 blinks the internal LED of the special button 14 and displays "special button repeated hits" on the liquid crystal screen. That is, the sub-control unit 160 can operate the special button 14 when it receives a notification from the main control unit 100 that the game has ended (a notification that the drum units are all stopped, a notification that the bet button is valid, etc.). Then, "hit the special button" or "repeatedly hit the special button" is displayed on the display effect device 11. In addition, the number of remaining games, which is the current number of remaining games plus an additional value for each special button operation, is also displayed (not shown).

FIG. 38 (B) shows that the number of additional games is 20 at the 10th time, 100 at the 11th time, 10 at the 12th time, 1 at the 13th time, 3 at the 14th time, 1 at the 15th time, 5 at the 16th time, and 1 at the 17th time. , The total number of remaining games (total number of remaining games) received last after 1 is won in the 18th time is memorized, the end condition of the additional loop lottery process is satisfied, and the total of 206 times from the 1st to the 18th is acquired. It shows that it was done. The sub-control unit 160 stores the special button 14 in the RAM in the order in which it is received each time the player operates the special button 14 once when the start condition of the additional effect is satisfied and the special button 14 is in an operable state (enabled state). The number of additional games to be added is displayed in order from the first to the last, and the total number of additional games and the total number of remaining games are displayed in the 19th operation. The sub-control unit 160 displays the total number of additional games even when the additional effect is canceled by the start operation (effect cancel operation) after the MAX bet operation, and the first stop operation of the next game. The total number of additional games will continue to be displayed until is performed. The total number of remaining games may also be displayed. The sub-control unit 160 obtains and displays the total number of additional games by subtracting the number of remaining games before the additional game from the total number of remaining games received (total number of remaining games). As a result, the sub-control unit 160 reproduces the additional lottery actually performed by the main control unit 100 on behalf of the player, so that the player is greatly impressed and forms a sense of unity between the player and the game machine. can do.

FIG. 39 is an explanatory diagram showing the relationship between the 8-bit pseudo-random number and the number. FIG. 40 is a detailed explanatory view of the winning combination lottery table.

The normal state of mode number 0 is managed by four types of normal modes No. 0 to 3, and if you draw a rare role when this state is large, you will win ART (assist replay time) or CZ (chance zone). The probability of doing it increases. The points are determined by a random number lottery from the values 0 to 99.

When using 8-bit pseudo-random numbers, the probability could only be set in 0.39% (1/256) increments in the past, but it became necessary to set the winning probability in more detail, so technically devise it. Elaborate (eg 0.006%). The main control unit 100 acquires one of the 8-bit pseudo-random numbers from 0 to 255 periodically generated by the random number generation circuit at a predetermined timing (see FIG. 39 (A)). As for this 8-bit pseudo-random number, a value of 0 to 255 always appears once in one cycle. The 7th bit (MSB) of the 8-bit pseudo-random number is the instruction bit, and if this value is 0, it is an execution instruction for multiplication, but if it is 1, it is not an execution instruction for multiplication (that is, a non-execution instruction for multiplication). ). Further, the content to be instructed may be the opposite of 0 and 1 (0: execution non-instruction, 1: execution instruction). The other seven bits (0th to 6th bits) of the 8-bit pseudo-random number can indicate any numerical value from 0 to 127.

FIG. 39 (B) indicates that the instruction bit (MSB) is 0 and is multiplied by a predetermined number. A 7-bit numerical value multiplied by 128 is a set number, and the probability is 0 each time the numerical value increases by 1. It shows an increase of .781%. This resolution is twice as rough as 1/256.

FIG. 39 (C) indicates that the indicator bit (MSB) is 1 and does not multiply by a predetermined number. A 7-bit numerical value becomes a number, and the probability increases by 0.006% for each increment of 1. Indicates to do. This resolution is 64 times as fine as 1/256.

FIG. 39 (D) is a lottery table that determines the relationship between a plurality of winning information (values of prize points 0 to 99) and the number of prizes, and is stored in the ROM 101. It is designed so that 10 points to 30 points of prize money will be won with an 80% probability, centering on 20 points of prize money. When the prize money of 20 points is won with a probability of 30%, the MSB is 0, the 7-bit numerical value is 38, and the true probability is 29.688% (38 × 128 ÷ 16384). If the prize money of 15 points and the prize money of 25 points are won with a probability of 20%, the MSB is 0, the 7-bit numerical value is 26, and the true probability is 20.031% (26 × 128 ÷ 16384). When the prize 0 points are won with a probability of 0.5%, the MSB is 1 and the 7-bit numerical value is 82, and the true probability is 0.500% (82/16384). If 90 points of prize money are won with a probability of 0.02%, the MSB is 1 and the 7-bit number is 4, and the true probability is 0.024% (4/16384). And if you want to win 99 points of prize with a 0.01% probability, the MSB should be 1 and the 7-bit number should be 2, but since 0 to 90 points have not been won, be sure to win at the end. Since the points are won, the MSB, which means 100%, is 1, and the 7-bit numerical value is 0 (number 1 Bite data: 10000000). As a process on the program, first, it is confirmed whether the number is 128, and if it is 128, the winning process is performed, while if it is not 128, the number is accumulated and subtracted from the random number. In particular, the probability of 50% is 0 for the MSB, and the 7-bit numerical value is 64 (number 1 Bite data: 01000000). On the contrary, if the acquired one 8-bit pseudo-random number is 64 (1Byte data: 01000000), the random numbers are accumulated and subtracted in order from 0 points, and the random number becomes negative, so the prize is 20 points. Winning information of 20 points of prize will be derived.

The main control unit 100 continuously generates a 2-byte random number (value of 0 to 65535 in decimal number, 0000h in binary number) generated by the built-in random number generation unit 103 in accordance with the operation of the start lever 9 of the player. ~ 1111h), one of the RD1s is extracted and the internal lottery process is executed.

The combination lottery table (see FIG. 40) is all 1-byte data, and is a 1-byte Nth data from the address N, a 1-byte M data from the address M, and a 1-byte L data group from the address L. The data content is changed according to the design specifications. The MSB of the Nth data is an identification bit that identifies the number of bytes of the number, and if the identification bit is 0, the number of bytes of the number is 1 byte, while if the identification bit is 1, the number of bytes is set. It is a state in which the number of bytes of the number indicates 2 bytes. The following two bits (bits 5 and 6) are bonus information, and 00 indicates that the bonus is not won, 01 indicates that the bonus is 1, 02 indicates that the bonus is 2, and 03 indicates that the bonus 3 is won. The lower 5 bits are lottery count information, and can take a value of at least 1 time to a maximum of 31 times.

The MSB of the Mth data is an identification bit that identifies the data for each setting. If it is 0, it means that there is no setting difference of the number and it means a common number, but if it is 1, there is a difference in the setting of the number and it is for each setting. Means the number of digits of. The lower 7 bits are combination information, which means the winning combination when the internal lottery process is completed. Since it is 7 bits, 128 types of winning combinations (winning combination 0 to winning combination 127) can be distinguished. The Lth data means the value of the number, and if the MSB of the Nth data is 0, it is the small number data of 1 byte (up to 255), and if the MSB is 1, it is the large number data of 2 bytes (maximum 65535). be able to.

When the main control unit 100 extracts RD1, it continuously pulls RD1 and determines the winning combination when the end condition based on the remaining random number value and the set value is satisfied. The end condition is satisfied when the remaining random number value becomes smaller than the value drawn this time in the lottery table. More specifically, since the MSB of the Nth data is 1, the main control unit 100 determines that the number of bytes is 2 bytes. Since the bonus information is 00, the bonus is not won, and since the lottery count information is (11011), it is judged that the lottery is drawn 27 times (subtract the number).

Since the MSB of the Mth data is 0, the main control unit 100 determines that it is a common number with no setting difference, and since the combination information is 4, it is a push order small combination (left first 1). The main control unit 100 uses the Lth data (01h) as the upper byte of the number and the L + 1 data (10h) as the lower byte of the number. In this case, the decimal number is 384 (256 + 128) in decimal. Here, when the main control unit 100 determines that the remaining random number value is smaller than the current set value in the lottery table, the end condition is satisfied and the push order small winning combination (left first 1) is determined as the winning winning combination. (Derive the lottery result). On the other hand, if the end condition is not satisfied, the present numerical value (384) is subtracted from the remaining random number value, and the subtraction is completed once as the remaining random number value. Next, the main control unit 100 sets the push order small combination (left first 2) by logical operation, and when the end condition is satisfied, determines the push order small combination (left first 2) as the winning combination, but if it is not established. , The push order small combination (left first 3) is set by the logical operation, and when the end condition is satisfied, this push order small combination (left first 3) is determined as the winning combination, but the same process is repeated when the result is not established. There are 9 types of small push order (left first) from 1 to 9, 9 types of small push order (middle first) from 1 to 9, and 9 types of small push order (right first) from 1 to 9. Since the numbers are the same, it is possible to reduce the amount of data in the winning combination lottery table by performing loop processing. In other words, if you do not win even if you draw 27 times (subtract the number of places), 27 types from push order small win (left first 1) to push order small win (right first 1) will be unwinned. , If the end condition is satisfied somewhere, one of the push order small wins will be won.

Since the MSB of the N + 1th data is 0 in the main control unit 100, the main control unit 100 determines that the number of bytes is 1 byte. Since the bonus information is 01, the bonus 1 is won, and since the lottery number information is (00001), it is determined that the lottery is done once (subtract the number). Since the MSB of the M + 1 data is 0, the main control unit 100 determines that the number is a common number with no setting difference and that the winning combination information is 0, so that the player is unwinned (missing). That is, the bonus 1 is won alone, and if the end condition is satisfied here, only the bonus 1 is won. If the winning combination information is other than 0, the winning combination and the bonus 1 will be won in duplicate. The main control unit 100 uses the L + 2 data (40h) as a decimal number, and in this case, the decimal number is 64 (the winning probability is about 1/1000). Here, when the main control unit 100 determines that the remaining random number value is smaller than the current setting value 64, the end condition is satisfied and the bonus 1 is determined to be a single winning (lottery result is derived). On the other hand, if the end condition is not satisfied, the current placement value (64) is subtracted from the remaining random value, and one lottery process is completed as the remaining random value.

Since the MSB of the N + 2 data of the main control unit 100 is 0, the main control unit 100 determines that the number of bytes is 1 byte. Since the bonus information is 00, the bonus is unsuccessful, and since the lottery count information is (00001), it is determined that the lottery is done once (subtract the number). Since the MSB of the M + 2 data is 1, the main control unit 100 determines that it is a middle-tier cherry (rare small role: determined at the time of design) because it is a setting number for each setting with a setting difference and the combination information is 3. .. The main control unit 100 confirms the set value, and if the set value is 1, the third L + 3 data (80h) is set as a fraction (decimal number 128), and if the set value is 2, the next L + 4 data (88h) is set. ) Is a decimal number (decimal number 136), if the set value is 3, the next L + 5 data (90h) is set as a base number (decimal number 144), and if the set value is 4, the next L + 6 data (A0h) is set as a decimal number (decimal number 160), if the set value is 5, the next L + 7 data (C0h) is set as a fixed number (decimal number 192), and if the set value is 6, it is one step ahead. When it is determined that the L + 8 data (E0h) is the number (decimal number 255) and the remaining random number value is smaller than the current number, the end condition is satisfied and the middle cherry is determined to be the sole winner. If the bonus information is 10, the bonus 2 and the middle cherry will be won at the same time. On the other hand, if the end condition is not satisfied, the current placement value is subtracted from the remaining random number value, and one lottery process is completed as the remaining random number value. The main control unit 100 repeats the above procedure to execute the internal lottery process, and finally derives the lottery result (winning combination or unwinning). The effect is that the data capacity of the main program can be compressed.

FIG. 41 is a detailed explanatory view of the instruction monitor display. 42 to 44 are explanatory views showing the relationship between the instruction information and the instruction monitor display and the instruction content.

In this embodiment, the instruction monitor display is performed using the ones digit of the medal payout number display LED 4c. When an instruction is generated corresponding to the value of the internal winning information, the value of the RT information, the value of the push order information, and the navigation mode information after the start lever is activated, the instruction monitor display is generated by digitizing the instruction content. Set (0 to 6). After that, when the rotating cylinder starts to rotate and the operation of the stop button becomes acceptable, the set instruction information (0 to 6) is displayed in the first place of the medal payout number display LED 4c (lights up). ). Then, when the body is stopped all the time, the instruction monitor display is turned off. The relationship between the instruction information and the instruction monitor display and the instruction content is as follows. In addition, "0" is displayed for "no display".

When the value of the navigation mode information is "0" when the condition device related to the instruction function is operated, the grouped values from the event command (winning data command: A9H) are transmitted to the peripheral board (sub-control unit 160) (sub-control unit 160). See FIG. 42 (A)). The group value of the push order bell 1 to the push order bell 27 is 80H, and the group value of the push order replay 1-1 to the push order replay 2-6 is 40H. The control unit 160 can recognize the push order bell or the push order replay, but cannot notify the navigation information because it cannot recognize the order to be operated.

When the condition device related to the instruction function is operating and the value of the navigation mode information is "1", the value of some instruction information and the grouped value are changed from the event command (winning data command: A9H) to the peripheral board (sub-control). It is transmitted to the unit 160) (chance zone 2. see FIG. 42 (B)). In the case of the condition devices 01EH to 026H (pushing order bells 1 to 27), a 50% distribution lottery is performed and displayed on the instruction monitor. There are three push order bells, and if the first operation is correct, the bell small winning combination (winning purpose small winning combination) wins regardless of the order of the second operation and the third operation. Specifically, since the left 1st is the correct answer for 01EH to 026H (push order bell 1 to push order bell 9), 50% of either "1" indicating the left middle right or "2" indicating the left middle right is 50%. It is decided by lottery with the probability of, displayed on the instruction monitor, and the decision information is transmitted to the peripheral board (sub-control unit 160). If the decision information is "1", the sub-control unit 160 notifies the navigation information in the order of left, middle, and right, while if the decision information is "2", the sub-control unit 160 notifies the navigation information in the order of left, right, and middle.

Similarly, for 027H to 02FH (pushing order bells 10 to 18), the 1st in the middle is the correct answer, so either "3" to indicate the middle left or right or "4" to indicate the middle right or left is determined by lottery with a 50% probability. Then, it is displayed on the instruction monitor and the decision information is transmitted to the peripheral board (sub-control unit 160). If the decision information is "3", the sub-control unit 160 notifies the navigation information in the order of middle left and right, but if the decision information is "4", the sub control unit 160 notifies the navigation information in the order of middle right and left. In addition, since the right 1st is the correct answer for 030H to 038H (pushing order bells 19 to 27), either "5" indicating right, middle, or left or "6" indicating right, middle, or left is determined by lottery with a probability of 50%. Then, it is displayed on the instruction monitor and the decision information is transmitted to the peripheral board (sub-control unit 160). If the decision information is "5", the sub-control unit 160 notifies the navigation information in the order of right, middle, and left, while if the decision information is "4", the sub-control unit 160 notifies the navigation information in the order of right, middle, and left. The main control unit 100 transmits 40H as a group value of push order replay 1-1 to push order replay 2-6. The control unit 160 can recognize the push order replay, but cannot notify the navigation information because it cannot recognize the order to be operated.

When the condition device related to the instruction function is operating and the value of the navigation mode information is "2", the value of some instruction information and the grouped value are changed from the event command (winning data command: A9H) to the peripheral board (sub-control). It is transmitted to unit 160) (waiting for completion. See FIG. 43 (A)). The group value of the push order bell 1 to the push order bell 27 is 80H, and the control unit 160 can recognize the push order bell, but cannot recognize the order to be operated, so that the navigation information cannot be notified. The push order replay 1 is a replay role for shifting from the RT1 state to the RT2 state, and the push order replay 2 is a replay role for shifting from the RT2 state to the RT3 state. Since the correct answer for 02H (push order replay 1-1) or 08H (push order replay 2-1) is left, middle, and right, "1" indicating the correct answer operation is displayed on the instruction monitor, and the peripheral board (sub-control) is displayed. Instruction information is transmitted to unit 160). Since the correct answer is 03H (push order replay 1-2) or 09H (push order replay 2-2), the correct answer operation is displayed on the instruction monitor and the peripheral board (sub-control unit). Instruction information is transmitted to 160). Since the correct answer for 04H (push order replay 1-3) or 0AH (push order replay 2-3) is the correct answer, "3" indicating the correct answer operation is displayed on the instruction monitor and the peripheral board (sub-control unit). Instruction information is transmitted to 160).

Similarly, for 05H (push order replay 1-4) or 0BH (push order replay 2-4), the order of middle right and left is correct, so "4" indicating the correct answer operation is displayed on the instruction monitor and the peripheral board ( Instruction information is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160). Since the order of 06H (push order replay 1-5) or 0CH (push order replay 2-5) is correct in the right and left order, "5" for instructing the correct answer operation is displayed on the instruction monitor and the peripheral board (secondary). Instruction information is transmitted to the control unit 160). Since the correct answer for 07H (push order replay 1-6) or 0DH (push order replay 2-6) is right, middle, and left, "6" for instructing the correct answer operation is displayed on the instruction monitor and the peripheral board (peripheral board (push order replay 2-6)). Instruction information is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160).

When the value of the navigation mode information is "3" when the condition device related to the instruction function is operated, the value of the instruction information is transmitted from the event command (winning data command: A9H) to the peripheral board (sub-control unit 160) (sub-control unit 160). See FIG. 43 (B)). Numerical values (1 to 6) for instructing the correct operation of the push order bell and push order replay are displayed on the instruction monitor as described in FIGS. 42 (B) and 43 (A), and the peripheral board (secondary). Instruction information is transmitted to the control unit 160). When the RT information is "0" when the condition device related to the instruction function is operated, the value of the navigation mode information is the same as that of "0" even if the value of the navigation mode information is "1" to "3". , The values grouped from the event command (winning data command: A9H) are transmitted to the peripheral board (sub-control unit 160) (see FIG. 44). The group value of the push order bell 1 to the push order bell 27 is 80H, and the group value of the push order replay 1-1 to the push order replay 2-6 is 40H. The control unit 160 can recognize the push order bell or the push order replay, but cannot notify the navigation information because it cannot recognize the order to be operated. Therefore, even if the sub-control unit 160 is tampered with, it cannot be tampered with.

FIG. 45 is a game state transition diagram (RT state).

The difference from FIG. 33 is that a premier production bonus is provided in addition to the actual bonus game (BB1 to BB2: 1 type of accessory continuous operation device) as a bonus combination, so FIG. 33 is used for other explanations.

The premier production bonus is an actual bonus with RT that becomes a high probability replay state (REP probability about 2/3) for a predetermined number of games (for example, 25 games) when the bonus game ends, and RT from the start of the premier production bonus game. The premiere production is executed until the game is over.

When the premier effect bonus symbol is displayed and the premier effect bonus game is won, the sub-control unit 160 executes the premier effect with that as an opportunity to start the effect. The premier production data is composed of video data, music data, singing voice data, and lamp control data. The premier production data is composed of divided production data 0 to production data N (N is a natural number of 2 or more), and the sub-control unit 160 reproduces the production data N in order from the production data 0. When is finished, the process returns to the production data 0 and the playback is repeated (turnaround playback). The sub-control unit 160 stores the effect data currently being reproduced, and when the door is opened or an error occurs and the error state is restored, the sub-control unit 160 starts reproduction from the beginning of the stored effect data. That is, after the occurrence of the production interruption reason is detected during the execution of the premier production, when the production start condition is satisfied, the production data currently stored is reproduced from the beginning. Since the effect data 0 to the effect data N are divided according to the effect content to be displayed, it is not necessary to divide them into equal parts (data having the same length).

Application Example (Additional Description of FIG. 23):
(22) ART lottery opportunity: The ART lottery is executed when rare roles such as cherry role, pumpkin role (watermelon role), strong bell role (common bell role), chance role and special replay role are won. To.

When the main control unit 100 receives the regular operation of the start lever 9, the combination lottery is executed, and when the ART lottery trigger combination is won, it is determined whether or not to play the operation time guessing game. In the case of unwinning, the ART lottery is executed using the lottery table according to the game state and the ART lottery trigger. On the other hand, when the operation time guessing game is won, the main control unit 100 determines the correct answer time range. This correct answer time range is a time range in which the correct answer is given when any one of the stop button units 10 is operated from the start of timing to the first stop operation. For example, the main control unit 100 determines that the correct answer time range is "5 seconds ± 0.1 seconds" or "4.9 seconds to 5.1 seconds".

Further, the main control unit 100 transmits that the game has been won and the correct answer time range to the sub control unit 160, and performs a freeze effect (reel lock and reel effect) for about 3 seconds. The sub-control unit 160 displays on the display effect device 11 that the operation time guessing game of the first stop operation is performed and a time measuring meter that counts up from 0 seconds to 10 seconds, and for example, the "stop button unit 10 There is a correct answer time between 3 and 7 seconds. " The main control unit 100 starts timing the operation time when the drum unit 2 becomes a constant rotation after the freeze effect is completed, and transmits to the sub control unit 160 that the rotation has become constant. The sub-control unit 160 counts up the time measuring meter from 0 seconds to 10 seconds according to the elapsed seconds when the drum unit 2 rotates at a constant speed.

When any of the stop button units 10 is first stopped, the main control unit 100 determines the time measured as the operation time and transmits it to the sub control unit 160. The main control unit 100 executes the ART lottery using the correct answer lottery table if the operation time is within the correct answer time range of 4.9 seconds to 5.1 seconds, while the main control unit 100 is not within the correct answer time range. The ART lottery is executed using the incorrect answer lottery table. The winning probability of the correct answer lottery table is higher than the winning probability of the incorrect answer lottery table. In addition, the winning probability of the incorrect answer lottery table is higher than that of the lottery table when the operation time guessing game is unwinned. That is, the winning probability has a relationship of correct answer lottery table> incorrect answer lottery table> unwinning lottery table. In this game, either the correct answer lottery table or the incorrect answer lottery table may be determined, and the ART lottery may be executed at the timing when the normal operation of the start lever 9 of the next game is accepted.

In the ART game (advantageous game), when the operation time guessing game is won, the main control unit 100 executes an additional lottery at the timing when the normal operation of the start lever 9 is accepted, and determines the additional amount or the number of additional sets. To do. Then, on the condition that the correct answer is given to the operation time guessing game, the determined additional amount or the number of at least one additional set may be given. That is, when the operation time guessing game is executed, the main control unit 100 grants at least one right to play an advantageous game when the relationship between the operation time and the correct answer time range satisfies the grant condition.

In the ART game (advantageous game), when the operation time guessing game is won, the main control unit 100 executes an additional lottery at the timing when the normal operation of the start lever 9 is accepted, and determines the additional amount or the number of additional sets. To do. Then, when the correct answer is given to the operation time guessing game, the sub-control unit 160 blinks the special button 14 and instructs the display effect device 11 to operate the special button 14, and the operation of the special button 14 triggers the additional amount or the number of additional sets. May be displayed.

Further, in a normal game or an ART game (advantageous game), when the operation time guessing game is won, the sub-control unit 160 takes the opportunity of correctly answering the operation time guessing game, and sets and suggests the effect on the display effect device 11. May be executed. For example, as a setting suggestion effect, when the stage setting value is 6, characters having placards 5 and 6 may appear, or the setting 6 may be displayed. As an effect, in the past, the player did not necessarily have to pay close attention to the liquid crystal and the reel until the weight (freeze effect) was released, but since it was possible to determine the weight release timing, the player's You can further fuel your expectations and increase your sense of self-reliance.

FIG. 46 shows a game state transition diagram (RT state) and a left 1st push order small combination. FIG. 47 shows the middle 1st and right 1st push order small combinations.

The difference from FIG. 33 is that bonus 1 (see FIG. 23) is now referred to as a penetrating bonus. Bonus 1 may be either a type 1 accessory continuous operation device or a type 2 accessory continuous operation device. Bonus 1, which is a penetrating bonus, does not change the winning probability of the re-game even if the winning combination is internally won, the operation symbol is displayed, or the operation of the bonus ends (the bonus game ends). In other words, it is a role to maintain the RT state at the time of internal winning. In addition, when the bonus 1 and the small winning combination are won at the same time, the bonus symbol is preferentially pulled in and controlled (bonus priority control).

Bonus 1 (preferably a continuous operation device for the second type special accessory): (BAR) on the left drum 2a, (BAR) on the middle drum 2b, and (red cherry) on the right drum 2c are all on the effective line. If you stop, the number of acquired cards will be 0, and then a premier bonus of 1 will be given (BIG bonus in which 2 types of BB1 are activated). When a prize is won, the BAR symbols appear to be aligned in a straight line on the upper right, so there is no sense of discomfort for the player. This is a bonus 1 game, and ends when the number of acquired cards exceeds 144.

When the bonus 1 is internally won and the bonus is inside, the RT state at the time of winning is maintained, so RT4 becomes any of RT0 to RT3. In the state of RT2 or RT3 where the winning probability of the re-game combination is high, if the bonus 1 is internally won and does not operate (win), the high-probability re-game state is maintained in the next game. If the replay is won in these RT4 states (high probability replay state), the operation symbol of the replay is always displayed (winning or operation of the replay role), but if any of the small wins is won, a bonus is given by bonus priority control. The symbol is pulled in and controlled in preference to the small winning combination.

However, when the bonus 1 is internally won and the push order small winning combination (especially the left 1st) is won at the same time, if the stop switch is operated at the timing when the bonus symbol cannot be pulled in, the ball output rate is 100%. The problem arises that it exceeds. For example, when the push order bell 1-1 in FIG. 24 is won, a small winning combination (right-down bell role: FRU1) whose purpose is to win a prize, and an obstructing small winning combination group whose purpose is to prevent the winning of the first small winning combination are formed. Multiple types of obstructive small wins (in this case, three types of nine small wins (FRU10, FRU23, FRU36) are won at the same time. The player turns on the stop switch when the 18th BAR symbol on the left reel has passed. When operated, the 13th or No. green pumpkin symbol or the 3rd upper thin symbol stops on the effective line. If the 13th green pumpkin symbol stops on the effective line, the target small winning combination (FRU1) ) And the small blockage (FRU36) may win. When the player operates the stop switch at the timing when the player cannot pull in the blue cherry symbol of No. 3, the main control unit 100 has a small blockage. Since the role symbol cannot be pulled in, the bell symbol of the target small role (FRU1) is pulled in. In this state, only the target small role (FRU1) can win a prize, but the replay symbol on the right reel can be pulled in 100%. The main control unit 100 wins the target small winning combination and pays out nine cards. Conversely, when the player operates the stop switch at the timing when the player pulls in the third blue cherry symbol, only the blocking small winning combination Is in the tempai state, but since the prize is won with a 1/3 chance, the increase / decrease is 0. That is, in the RT4 state (high probability replay state) in which the player is inside the bonus, the bonus 1 symbol is intentionally set. If you keep avoiding the bonus winning without aiming at, the payout rate will exceed 100%, so the number of medals will not decrease when you win the replay, and you will be able to increase the number of medals when you win the small role. As a result, you can capture by the player. The situation that is done occurs.

FIG. 46 (B) shows that the push order bell combination (left) was won in the RT4 state (low probability replay state of RT0 and RT1 or high probability replay state of RT3 to RT4) inside the bonus. The difference from FIG. 23 is that the FRU40, which plays a single role for changing the stop control, is simultaneously elected, but during the non-internal bonus, as described in FIGS. 27 to 32. Since stop control is performed, the explanation is used.

In the push order bell combination (left), the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the left stop button 10a, and the subsequent operation may be either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c. Push-order bell 1 is a one-time push-order type push-order small winning combination, and the purpose is to win a prize, and the payout is 9 first small winning combination (right-down bell role: FRU1) and 1st small winning combination. A plurality of types of second small winning combination (in this case, three types of nine small winning combination (FRU10, FRU23, FRU36)) constituting the second small winning combination group for the purpose of inhibiting are simultaneously won (pushing order bell 1 in FIG. 24). (Refer to -1). Furthermore, the FRU40, which is a single piece for changing the stop control, is won at the same time. There are nine types from the push order bell 1-1 to the push order bell 1-9, but for the stop control change. Since it is the same except that one of the winning combinations is won at the same time, the explanation is used. There are also pushing order bell roles (middle) and pushing order bell roles (right), but the explanations of FIGS. 27 to 32 are used. In addition, these explanations are the explanations when the bonus is not won (non-internal), and the push order bell role (left) is simultaneously won in the bonus non-internal, and in the state of FIG. 27 (A), When the player first stops the left stop button 10a in the correct operation order, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The left drum 2a is stopped at, and control is performed to draw any one of the upper thin symbol / BAR symbol / green pumpkin symbol into the effective line.

On the other hand, when the player first stops the right stop button 10c in the incorrect answer operation order while all the reels are rotating (see FIG. 29 (A)) while the bonus is not inside, the main control is performed. The unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and either the BAR symbol, the blue seven symbol, or the green pumpkin symbol. Control is performed so that one is always drawn into the effective line (see FIG. 29 (B)). Therefore, one of the three small winning combinations is always stopped on the effective line. In the case of FIG. 29 (B), since the BAR symbol is stopped at the effective line, there is a possibility that only FRU10 will win at this point, and the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is stopped in the upper right row. ing.

If the push order bell combination (left) is won inside the bonus, BB1, FRU1, FRU10, FRU23, FRU36 and FRU40 are simultaneously won (see FIG. 46 (B)). When the player first stops the left stop button 10a in the correct operation order aiming at the BAR symbol which is the DDT point, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and corresponds to the sliding frame number data. Based on the above, the left drum 2a is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and stop control is performed to draw the BAR symbol into the effective line. If the BAR symbol stops at the valid line, at this point, any of BB1, FRU1, FRU10 and FRU40 may win. When the player aims at the 16th blue seven symbol and performs the second stop operation of the middle stop button 10b, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is 0 based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The middle drum 2b is stopped in the range of 1 frame to 4 frames, and stop control is performed to draw the BAR symbol into the effective line. The reason is that the main control unit 100 performs stop control for drawing in bonus symbols in preference to the symbols of FRU1, FRU10 and FRU40. In this state, there is a possibility that only BB1 will win, and if the player aims at the red cherry symbol and operates the right stop button 10c for the third stop, BB1 will win, but at the timing when the red cherry symbol cannot be pulled in. When the right stop button 10c is pressed for the third stop, the missing eye of BB1 is displayed.

However, if the player presses the BAR symbol on the right reel No. 12 and presses the right stop button 10c for the second stop after the first stop operation, the red cherry symbol No. 13 cannot be stopped. In that case, the main control unit 100 draws either the upper thin symbol or the white pumpkin symbol of the FRU 40, which has many symbol combinations, into the effective line instead of the BAR symbol which is the symbol of the FRU 10 inside the bonus. After that, when the middle stop button 10b is operated in the third stop operation, either the replay symbol or the white pumpkin symbol is pulled into the effective line to win the FRU 40 and pay out only one medal. Therefore, since the player loses two cards, the aggressiveness can be eliminated.

Further, when the BAR symbol is removed by the first stop operation of the left reel, the main control unit 100 stops the upper thin symbol or the green pumpkin symbol, but during the inside of the bonus, the replay symbol or the replay symbol or the middle reel is operated after that. The white pumpkin symbol, the upper thin symbol or the white pumpkin symbol is stopped on the right reel, and the FRU40 is won. That is, the kicking control of the symbols of FRU23 and FRU36, which are small winning combinations, is performed, and the small winning combination with a large number of payouts is not won. As a result, the ball output rate inside the bonus can be set to less than 100%, so that the aggressiveness can be eliminated.

In the inside of the bonus of FIG. 46 (B), when the player first stops the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c in the incorrect answer operation order, two stop controls can be considered.

As the first control, in the case of an incorrect answer operation order, the main control unit 100 stops the bonus symbol or the symbol of FRU40 on the effective line, and BB1 or FRU40 (control change small winning combination for stopping control change, payout) Execute stop control that allows only 2 or less to win a prize. That is, since FRU40 (control change small winning combination) is won at the same time inside the bonus, if the BB1 symbol cannot be drawn in, the FRU40 symbol is drawn in and the small winning combination with a large payout (target small winning combination and three inhibitions). (Small role) should not be awarded.

As a second control, in the case of an incorrect answer operation order, the main control unit 100 stops the bonus symbol or any of the three obstructive small winning combinations on the effective line, and stops only the BB1 or the obstructing small winning combination. Take control. That is, in the inside of the bonus, the small winning combination that has a lot of dividends but may be missed is won at the same time, so if the BB1 symbol cannot be drawn in, one of the small blocking symbols is drawn in and the payout is paid. Many purpose small wins and control change small wins will not be awarded.

If the push order bell combination (middle) shown in FIG. 47 (A) is won inside the bonus, BB1, FRU2, FRU10, FRU23 and FRU36 are simultaneously won.

When the player first stops the middle stop button 10b in the correct operation order, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The middle drum 2b is stopped at, but despite the correct operation order, the bell symbol of FRU2 is kicked and the stop control is changed so as to pull in the BAR symbol (bonus symbol) or any of the obstructive small winning symbols. .. In addition, the bell design of FRU2, which is the target small role, is drawn into the non-internal bonus. If the bonus symbol is pulled in by the second and third stop operations after that, the bonus will be won, but if it cannot be pulled in, the bonus will be missed. In addition, if the obstruction small role symbol is pulled in by the subsequent second and third stop operations, the obstruction small role prize will be awarded and nine medals will be paid out, but if it cannot be withdrawn, the small role will be missed. The small role Koboshi pattern is displayed. However, since it is inside the bonus, the main control unit 100 does not change the RT state.

If the push order bell combination (right) in FIG. 47 (B) is won inside the bonus, BB1, FRU3, FRU10, FRU23 and FRU36 are in a state of being won at the same time.

When the player first stops the right stop button 10c in the correct operation order, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The middle drum 2b is stopped at, but the stop control is changed so that the bell symbol of FRU3 is kicked and the red cherry symbol (bonus symbol) or one of the obstructing small role symbols is pulled in, despite the correct operation order. To do. In addition, the bell design of FRU3, which is the target small role, is drawn into the non-internal bonus. If the bonus symbol is pulled in by the second and third stop operations after that, the bonus will be won, but if it cannot be pulled in, the bonus will be missed. In addition, if the obstruction small role symbol is pulled in by the subsequent second and third stop operations, the obstruction small role prize will be awarded and nine medals will be paid out, but if it cannot be withdrawn, the small role will be missed. , Small role Koboshi eyes pattern is displayed. However, since it is inside the bonus, the main control unit 100 does not change the RT state.

Next, the operation of the rotating cylinder type game machine basically configured as described above will be described in detail with reference to drawings, flowcharts, and the like. In particular, it is slightly different from the first embodiment in terms of use, the probability of winning the replay fluctuates, and a rotating game machine equipped with an actual bonus and an assist bonus (ART, a third bonus, a pseudo bonus, etc.). (A + ART type) will be described.

FIG. 48 is a design layout of the drum.

The left drum 2a (1st body), the middle drum 2b (2nd body), and the right drum 2c (3rd body) each have a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol. A torso band (not shown) is attached so as to go around the outer periphery of each drum.

Twenty different patterns (red seven, black BAR, white BAR, blank, cherry, yellow watermelon, red watermelon, bell, lip 3, lip 2) are arranged on each sash. ..

FIG. 49 is a combination display determination diagram of symbols.

When all three drum units 2 are stopped, the main control unit 100 determines a combination display of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of inserted game medals (FIG. 49 (FIG. 49). See A)). However, in all games (normal games, assist games, bonus games, etc.), the prescribed number is assumed to be three.

FIGS. 49 (B) and 49 (C) are effective lines when a specified number of three game medals are inserted, and the first line (middle stage, middle stage, in the order of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c). Only the middle row, middle row: center horizontal line) is valid. That is, in all games, three cards are always inserted, and the effective line is the first line.

FIG. 50 is a payout table during normal operation and bonus operation.

When all three reels (rotary cylinders or drums) are stopped, the main control unit 100 determines a combination display of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line (see FIG. 49).

(1) Bonus 1 (Continuous operating device for the first-class special accessory, RBB1): Left drum 2a (Red Seven), middle drum 2b (Red Seven), right drum 2c (Red Seven) When all the cards are stopped on the effective line, the number of acquired cards is 0, and then a bonus of 1 is given (Type 1 BB1 is activated). Since the red seven patterns are aligned in a straight line in the center, there is no sense of discomfort for the player. This is a bonus 1 game, and ends when the number of acquired cards exceeds 297. When either the bonus 1 or the small winning combination is simultaneously won, the main control unit 100 performs stop control for preferentially drawing in the bonus symbol. The details of Bonus 1 will be described later.

(2) Bonus 2a (Type 1 special character, RB1): Left drum 2a (black BAR), middle drum 2b (black BAR), right drum 2c (black BAR) are aligned on the effective line and stopped. Then, the number of acquired cards is 0, and then the bonus 2a is given (RB1 is activated). Since the black BAR symbols are aligned in a straight line in the center, there is no sense of discomfort for the player. The game of bonus 2a ends when the result of 12 games is obtained or when 2 prizes are obtained. When either the bonus 2a or the small winning combination is simultaneously won, the main control unit 100 performs stop control for preferentially pulling in the bonus symbol. Bonus 2a does not change (shift) the replay state (RT state) even if the internal winning, the symbol is displayed, or the operation is completed. Therefore, after winning in the RT2 state, the same high-probability replay is performed again. You can return to the state. As a result, the bonus 2a can be continuously released while maintaining the ART state.

(3) Bonus 2b (Type 1 special character, RB2): Left drum 2a (white BAR), middle drum 2b (white BAR), right drum 2c (white BAR) are aligned on the effective line and stopped. Then, the number of acquired cards is 0, and then the bonus 2b is given (RB2 is activated). Since the white BAR patterns are aligned in a straight line in the center, there is no sense of discomfort for the player. The game with bonus 2b ends when the result of 12 games is obtained or when 2 prizes are obtained. When either the bonus 2b or the small winning combination is simultaneously won, the main control unit 100 performs stop control for preferentially pulling in the bonus symbol. Bonus 2b does not change (shift) the replay state (RT state) even if the internal winning, the symbol is displayed, or the operation is completed. Therefore, after winning in the RT2 state, the same high-probability replay is performed again. You can return to the state. As a result, the bonus 2b can be continuously released while maintaining the ART state.

(3') Bonus 3 (Continuous operating device for the second type special accessory, MB): Left drum 2a (Rip 3), middle drum 2b (Rip 3), right drum 2c (Yellow watermelon) When is stopped on the effective line, the number of acquired cards is 0 and a bonus MB is given after that (MB is activated). This bonus MB has a symbol pull-in rate of 100%, so if you win alone, you will definitely win any stop operation. The bonus MB game ends on the condition that the number of acquired cards exceeds a predetermined number N (for example, 8 cards). Further, in the bonus MB game (bonus game based on the bonus combination), at least the first small combination and the second small combination are internally elected at the same time, and the payout of the first small combination is a value (8) of a predetermined number N or less. The payout of the second small winning combination is set to a value exceeding a predetermined number N (for example, 9 cards). In the bonus game, the main control unit 100 is in a state where at least the first small winning combination and the second small winning combination are internally won at the same time, but while controlling a plurality of rotating cylinders so that the first small winning combination wins, the second Multiple rotations are controlled so that no small role wins. Therefore, the main control unit 100 can execute the bonus game at least twice. As a result, in the simulation test, 9 cards are taken and finished in 1 game, but in the market, 16 cards can be paid out after finishing in 2 games. Furthermore, in the bonus MB game (bonus game based on the bonus role), in addition to the first small winning combination (8 payouts) and the second small winning combination (9 payouts), the third small winning combination has a smaller payout than the second small winning combination. Small wins (7 payouts) will be internally won at the same time. Since the third small winning combination is designed to win a prize when the stop operation is performed at a specific position on the specific reel, the player operates the stop button so as to avoid the stop operation at the specific position. For example, as a result of avoiding the white bar symbol on the left reel from the top and operating the stop button, the third small winning combination (7 payouts, that is, a value of N-1 or less) does not win, and the 1st small winning combination (8 payouts). Since the prize is won, the number of acquired cards will increase by one.

(Variation example)
However, in the bonus MB game, the main control unit 100 may internally draw the re-game combination including the special re-game combination. For example, in the first game of the bonus game, if the special re-game combination is not won, multiple rotations are controlled so that the first small combination always wins, while the second small combination does not win. Control the rotation of the body, win the first small role, and execute the next bonus game. On the other hand, in the first game of the bonus game, the main control unit 100 controls a plurality of rotating cylinders so that the second small role can be won when the special re-game combination is won, and the second small combination If a prize is won, the bonus game ends in one game. If the second small winning combination is not won, the next bonus game is executed. The case where the second small winning combination is won is, for example, when the black bar symbol on the left-handed body is pressed or the left stop button is stopped one frame above to stop the black bar symbol on the effective line.

FIG. 66 is a combination display determination diagram of symbols and a schematic diagram of the left drum 2a.

The left drum 2a (1st body), the middle drum 2b (2nd body), and the right drum 2c (3rd body) each have a left drum symbol, a middle drum symbol, and a right drum symbol. A torso band (not shown) is attached so as to go around the outer periphery of each drum.

As explained in FIG. 48, each sash has a different pattern (10 types of red watermelon, black BAR, white BAR, blank, cherry, yellow watermelon, red watermelon, bell, lip 3 and lip 2). Are arranged in 20 pieces. Of the plurality of rotating cylinders, the number of symbol frames arranged in at least one special rotating cylinder (first cylinder) is 20 or less, and in this case, all three rotating cylinders have 20 symbols (20 frames). Is placed. On the other hand, for example, only the special rotating cylinder (first cylinder) may have 20 frames, and all the other rotating cylinders may have 21 frames. The difference between the number of symbol frames on the reel is 20 and 21 is that the size of the symbol of one frame is 20 frames longer than 21 frames in the moving direction. That is, assuming that the size of the 21-frame symbol is 1, the 20-frame symbol size is 21/20, which is 1.05 times longer. As a result, the length to the predetermined stop position on the effective line becomes long, and even if a sudden stop is made when sliding one frame, it may not be possible to move on the effective line within 75 ms. Therefore, when the number of symbol frames of the specific reel is 20, only stop control by sliding 0 frames can be performed.

As a point of the present invention, basically, in the type 2 BB (bonus game), the special rotating cylinder is stopped within a predetermined time (75 ms) after the reception of the stop operation, so that the symbol 0 frame slip or the symbol 1 frame slip is predetermined. It can be moved to a position, but when the special rotating cylinder is at the farthest position or a position slightly closer to it, it may stop within a predetermined time but cannot move to a predetermined position for sliding one frame of the symbol. However, the main control unit 100 determines that the symbol has moved to the predetermined position even if the symbol of the special rotating cylinder cannot be moved to the predetermined position due to the one-frame slip stop control, and determines that the symbol has moved to the predetermined position, depending on the display mode of the symbol. A medal payout (game value) is given. As a result, even when the number of symbol frames of the specific reel is 20, the main control unit 100 can control the stop of the symbol 0-frame slip or the symbol 1-frame slip as in the 21-frame reel, and reduce the program capacity. Is possible.

When all three drum units 2 are stopped, the main control unit 100 determines a combination display of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of inserted game medals (FIG. 66 (FIG. 66). See A)). However, in all games (normal games, assist games, bonus games, etc.), the prescribed number is assumed to be three.

This is an effective line when a specified number of 3 game medals are inserted, and only the first line (middle, middle, middle: center horizontal line) is valid in the order of left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c. .. That is, in all games, three cards are always inserted, and the effective line is only the first line.

FIG. 66 (B) is a schematic view of the left drum 2a (special rotating cylinder) included in the drum portion.

This left drum 2a rotates in the direction of the arrow (from top to bottom), and when the cherry pattern stops in the middle of the three windows 3 shown by the solid line, the center cherry (2 che) wins a prize and is predetermined. A number of game medals will be paid out.

In the game of the bonus MB (the accessory continuous operation device related to the second type special accessory), the main control unit 100 receives the stop operation of the left stop button, and the left drum 2a (special rotation cylinder) Is stopped within 75 ms (within a predetermined time). In this case, the main control unit 100 stops and controls so that the symbol is displayed at a predetermined position of the symbol 0-frame slip or the symbol 1-frame slip. This figure shows that the cherry symbol was stopped on the effective line (predetermined position) at the shortest, and it is said that the main control unit 100 stopped immediately after the stop operation of the left stop button (when the stop operation was accepted). to decide.

FIG. 67 is a schematic view of the left drum 2a.

The main control unit 100 stops the left drum 2a (special rotating cylinder) within 75 ms (within a predetermined time) when the stop operation of the left stop button is received. In this case, the main control unit 100 stops and controls so that the symbol is displayed at a predetermined position of the symbol one-frame slip. This figure shows that the cherry symbol was stopped on the effective line (predetermined position) in the longest time, and can be stopped just 75 ms after the stop operation of the left stop button (see FIG. 67 (A)).

FIG. 67 (B) shows that the stop operation of the left stop button was performed when the reel was slightly above the position shown in FIG. 67 (A). The main control unit 100 stops the left drum 2a (special rotating cylinder) within 75 ms (within a predetermined time) when the stop operation is received. In this case, since the cherry symbol is further above than FIG. 67 (A), the main control unit 100 stops the rotation of the reel within a predetermined time, but cannot move the reel to a predetermined position for sliding one frame of the symbol. .. However, even if the symbol of the special rotating cylinder cannot be moved to the predetermined position, the main control unit 100 determines that the symbol has moved (exists) to the predetermined position, and imparts a game value according to the display mode of the symbol. In other words, even if the symbol of the special rotating cylinder is displayed at a position less than the predetermined position, the main control unit 100 determines that the symbol has moved to the predetermined position and imparts a game value according to the display mode of the symbol. To do.

Here, the description will be continued by returning to FIG. 50.

(4) Middle bell: When the left drum 2a (bell), the middle drum 2b (bell), and the right drum 2c (bell) are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the bell symbol is displayed in a straight line in the center, and the middle bell is displayed. Will win a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be nine.

(5) Upper right bell: For example, when the left drum 2a (red watermelon), the middle drum 2b (bell), and the right drum 2c (replay 3) are aligned on the effective line and stop, the bell symbol appears on the upper right. It will be displayed and the upper right bell will win a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be nine.

(6) Upper bell: When the left drum 2a (yellow watermelon), the middle drum 2b (replay 3), and the right drum 2c (replay 3) are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the bell symbol is displayed on the upper drum. The upper bell wins a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be nine. There are 27 types of upper bells, which serve as inhibition small roles in the push order small role described later.

(7) Lower bell: For example, when (red watermelon) on the left drum 2a, (blank) on the middle drum 2b, and (white BAR) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the bell symbol is displayed in the lower row. The lower bell wins a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be nine. There are 27 types of lower bells, which serve as inhibition small roles in the push order small role described later.

(8) Pushing order small role: Left 1st is the correct push order push order bell role (left), middle 1st is the correct answer push order push order cherry role (middle), right 1st is the correct answer push order push order cherry role (left) There are three types (right), and if the first stop operation is the correct answer for the three-choice small winning combination, the target small winning combination will win in the subsequent second and third operations. In the case of a three-choice incorrect answer, there are cases where any one of the small obstacles (lower bell) wins a prize, and there are cases where a bumpy eye is displayed.

(9) Strong cherry: For example, when (Replay 3) on the left drum 2a, (Cherry) on the middle drum 2b, and (Yellow watermelon) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the cherry pattern goes straight down to the right. It is displayed and the strong cherry wins. The number of medals (game media) that can be obtained is one.

(10) Weak cherry: For example, when the left drum 2a (replay 3), the middle drum 2b (cherry), and the right drum 2c (cherry) are aligned on the effective line and stop, the weak cherry wins (cherry pattern). Is not displayed in a straight line going down to the right). The number of medals (game media) that can be obtained is one.

(11) Watermelon: For example, when (bell) on the left drum 2a, (red watermelon) on the middle drum 2b, and No. 3 (white BAR) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line and stop, the watermelon pattern is on the upper right. Is displayed and the watermelon wins a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be three.

(12) Middle cherry (confirmed cherry): For example, when (cherry) on the left drum 2a, (cherry) on the middle drum 2b, and (cherry) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the middle cherry wins (cherry). Operate. Since the middle-tier cherry is a re-game role, the number of medals (game media) obtained is 0. It is possible to display three cherry symbols in a straight line in the center. The role of middle cherry is a trigger for the freeze lottery, and if it is won, a freeze effect (reel lock and reel effect) is performed, and at least five pseudo bonuses are stocked and immediately released.

(13) Lower right replay: For example, when the left drum 2a has the 6th (bell), the middle drum 2b has the 2nd (replay 3), and the right drum 2c has the 5th (bell) on the effective line. The name of the role is, and no medals are won for this, but the next game can be played while maintaining the number of bets in the game. It is effective even if it is arranged continuously after the next game, and it is possible to continue playing without consuming coins until the game in which the replay is not established. A medal is automatically inserted before the start of the game, and the next game can be played by operating the start lever 9 of the player. If the lower right replay wins independently in the random number lottery, the RP flag corresponding to the flag area is set and the replay symbol is always displayed. In appearance, the replay patterns are aligned downward to the right. Even if the lower right replay operation symbol is displayed, the replay probability does not change.

(14) Middle stage replay (RT2 transition replay): For example, No. 5 (Replay 2) is effective for the left drum 2a, No. 12 (Replay 3) is effective for the middle drum 2b, and No. 17 (Replay 3) is effective for the right drum 2c. When the drums are aligned on the line and stopped, the replay symbol is displayed in a straight line in the center, and the middle replay is activated. When the middle replay is internally won in the random number lottery and this replay symbol is displayed, the replay probability fluctuates to about 1/2, and the state shifts to the RT2 state. In this RT2 state, there is a relatively high probability of losing (unwinning). Push order replay 1 in which the middle replay and the lower right replay are won at the same time is a replay role for shifting from the RT1 state to the RT2 state, and while the middle replay wins in the correct push order, the lower right in the other push order. Replay wins.

(15) Upper replay (RT2 transition replay): For example, the left drum 2a has the 10th (red seven), the middle drum 2b has the 13th (cherry), and the right drum 2c has the 12th (blank) on the effective line. When stopped in line with, the replay symbol is displayed in the upper straight line, and the upper replay is activated. Similar to the middle replay, when this replay symbol is displayed, the replay probability fluctuates by about 1/2, and the state shifts to the RT2 state. In this RT2 state, there is a relatively high probability of losing (unwinning). Push order replay 2 in which the upper replay and the lower right replay are won at the same time is a replay role for shifting from the RT1 state to the RT2 state, and while the upper replay wins in the correct push order, the lower right in the other push order. Replay wins.

(16) Upper right replay (RT1 transition replay): For example, 19th (black BAR) on the left drum 2a, 17th (replay 3) on the middle drum 2b, and 7th (blank) on the right drum 2c are effective lines. It is a role name when all of them are aligned above, and no medals are won for this, but the next game can be played while maintaining the number of bets in that game. In appearance, the replay patterns are aligned downward to the right. When the RT1 transition replay is internally won by a random number lottery and this replay symbol is displayed, the upper right replay is activated and the replay probability fluctuates, and the state shifts to the RT1 state (fall replay). The push order replay 3 in which the upper right replay and the lower right replay are won at the same time is a replay role for shifting from the RT2 state to the RT1 state, and while the upper right replay wins in the fall push order, the lower right in the other push order. Replay wins.

(17) Barrage replay (RT1 transition replay): For example, No. 15 (red watermelon) is effective for the left drum 2a, No. 1 (bell) is effective for the middle drum 2b, and No. 17 (red seven) is effective for the right drum 2c. It is the name of the role when they are aligned on the line, and no medals are won for this, but the next game can be played while maintaining the number of bets in that game. Apparently, the same type of symbols are not displayed in a straight line, and the symbols are displayed in a state where they are not stopped in an orderly manner. When the random number lottery wins the replay internally and this replay symbol is displayed, the replay probability fluctuates due to the operation of the replay 1, and the state shifts to the RT1 state (fall replay). The push order replay 4 in which the loose eye replay and the lower right replay are won at the same time is a replay role for shifting from the RT2 state to the RT1 state, and while the loose eye replay wins in the fall push order, in the other push order. The lower right replay wins.

(17) Small push order (push order bell role) bumps (1 to m): A special symbol (falling symbol) displayed on the effective line when the bell role is missed in the push order small role described later. Yes, when any one of the special symbols (falling symbols) is displayed, the re-game probability fluctuates, and the state shifts to the RT1 state. For example, when No. 12 (yellow watermelon) is displayed on the left drum 2a, No. 20 (yellow watermelon) is displayed on the middle drum 2b, and (replay) is displayed on the right drum 2c (the falling symbol is displayed), the game is played. The state shifts to the RT1 state (other symbol combinations are omitted).

The main control unit 100 manages the push-order small wins in which a plurality of small wins are won at the same time and the push-order replays in which a plurality of replays are won at the same time as a group win (or push-order group win). During AT (while the assist function is not activated), regardless of whether the push order small combination or the push order replay is internally won, the information that the group combination has been won is only transmitted to the sub control unit 160, so the sub control unit 160 cannot recognize the correct answer pressing order. The main control unit 100 transmits the winning combination information to the sub control unit 160 after the second stop operation, and the sub control unit 160 performs an effect based on the winning combination information.

FIGS. 51 to 53 are a combination table (simultaneous winning pattern of small winning combination) of the condition devices of the pushing order small winning combination (left first, middle first or right first).

The push order small winning combination is always a bell small winning combination (upper right bell (FRU1), middle bell (FRU2) or middle bell (FRU2) of the winning small winning combination) when the operation order of the stop button section 10 (pressing order of the stop button section 10) is correct. While winning the upper bell (FRU3)), in the case of incorrect answer procedure, when winning one of multiple types of 9 small wins (27 types of inhibitory small wins) that are simultaneously won, and It is a duplicate winning small winning combination that sometimes displays one of a plurality of Koboshi eyes (missing symbols of the blocking small winning combination). Since this push order small role wins in one-third, it can be said that it is a three-choice small role (1/3 winning small role). In other words, if the first operation is the correct answer, the small bell will always win.

In the push order bell combination (left), the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the left stop button 10a, and the subsequent operation may be either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c. Push order bell 1 is a one-time push order type push order small winning combination, and the purpose is to win a prize, and the payout is 9 first small winning combination (upper right bell role: FRU1) and 1st small winning combination. A plurality of types of second small winning combination (in this case, three types of nine small winning combination (FRU8, FRU21, FRU34)) constituting the second small winning combination group for the purpose of inhibiting are simultaneously won (pushing order bell 1 in FIG. 51). (See -1). In addition, since the third small winning combination (FRU4: 3 payouts) for the purpose of hindering the winning of the 1st small winning combination is simultaneously won, a total of 5 small winning combinations are in the winning state. Push order bell 1 There are 9 types of push order bells 1-1 to 1 to push order bells 1-9, so the player should not miss the small winning combination of 9 cards by looking at the outcome (stop symbol) of each reel. , The stop button part 10 cannot be operated aiming at the symbol. With the bonus 1 or bonus 2 being internally won, the push order bell role (left) is internally elected and the player's first stop operation is performed. When is the left stop button 10a, the main control unit 100 stops the common symbol of the first small winning combination (9-card payout) and the 3rd small winning combination (3-card payout), and the player's second stop operation is performed. With either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c, the main control unit 100 stops the symbol of the third small winning combination, so that the base can be lowered. Therefore, the first small winning combination is inside the bonus. Is not allowed to win a prize (progressive point).

In the push order small winning combination (middle), the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the middle stop button 10b, and the subsequent operation may be either the left stop button 10a or the right stop button 10c. The push order small win (middle) is a one-push order type push order small win, and the payout is the same for the nine first small wins (middle bell role: FRU2) and the first small win for the purpose of winning a prize. Multiple types of second small winning combination (in this case, three types of nine small winning combination (FRU8, FRU21, FRU34)) constituting the second small winning combination group for the purpose of hindering winning are won at the same time (pushing order in FIG. 52). (See Small Win 2-1). Push Order Small Win 2 and Push Order Bell 1 are that the first small win to be won is different and the third small win is not won at the same time. Push Order Small Win (Middle) There are 9 types of push order small 2-1 to push order small 2-9, so the player should look at the outcome (stop symbol) of each reel and do not miss the obstruction small role of 9 cards. , The stop button unit 10 cannot be operated aiming at the symbol.

In the push order small winning combination (right), the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the right stop button 10c, and the subsequent operation may be either the left stop button 10a or the middle stop button 10b. The push-order small win (right) is a one-push-order type push-order small win, and the payout is the same for the nine first small wins (upper bell role: FRU3) and the first small win for the purpose of winning a prize. Multiple types of second small winning combination (in this case, three types of nine small winning combination (FRU8, FRU21, FRU34)) forming the second small winning combination group for the purpose of hindering winning are won at the same time (pushing order in FIG. 53). (See Small Win 3-1). Push Order Small Win 3 and Push Order Bell 1 are that the first small win to be won is different and the third small win is not won at the same time. Push Order Small Win (Right) There are 9 types of push order small 3-1 to push order small 3-9, so the player should look at the outcome (stop symbol) of each reel and do not miss the obstructive small role of the 9-card role. , The stop button unit 10 cannot be operated aiming at the symbol.

54 to 55 are schematic views showing the symbol display state of the window portion in chronological order.

For example, when the main control unit 100 internally wins the push order bell 1-1 shown in FIG. 51 by random number lottery, the condition devices of FRU1 + FRU4 + FRU8 + FRU21 + FRU34 are simultaneously operated (4 different types of 9 small winning combinations and 1). It is determined that the operation order on the left is the winning operation order based on the operation order information (1st on the left) stored in correspondence with the ROM 101 by simultaneously winning three types of small wins). In this state, the main control unit 100 executes a stop calculation process (a process of pulling in a common symbol of FRU1 and FRU4 on the left 1st) based on the winning combination, the stop control table, and the score information, and when and when the player pulls in the common symbol. A slide frame number table is created so that stop control can be performed immediately even if the stop button unit 10 is operated. Further, the sliding frame number table is similarly created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation (see the explanation in FIG. 10).

FIG. 54 (A) shows a state in which all the drum portions 2 are rotating from top to bottom at a constant speed. When the player first stops the left stop button 10a in the correct operation order in the state of FIG. 54 (A), the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and obtains the corresponding sliding frame number data. Based on this, the left drum 2a is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and control is performed to draw any one of the red seven symbol, the lip 2 symbol, and the red watermelon symbol into the effective line (simply, the drum portion 2). Is only moved by the number of sliding frames. See FIG. 54 (B)). For example, the 10th red seven symbol stops on the effective line, and the 11th bell symbol is displayed in the lower row. In the state of FIG. 54 (B), the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c may be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation of the middle stop button 10b, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The middle drum 2b is stopped, and control is performed to draw the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) into the effective line (see FIG. 54 (C)). In the state of FIG. 54 (C), the FRU1 is tempered, and the bell symbol (small combination explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line on the upper right. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the right stop button 10c may be operated, and when the right stop button 10c is operated for the third stop, the main control unit 100 Refers to the sliding frame number table, and based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and performs stop control for drawing the lip 3 symbol into the effective line. (See FIG. 54 (D)). As a result, if the first stop operation is the correct answer, FRU1 always wins, the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line on the upper right, and nine medals are paid out. However, although the bell symbol is displayed in a straight line in appearance, the symbol symbol may be displayed in a straight line or not on the winning line. During the non-internal bonus, the FRU1 symbol with a large payout is preferentially drawn in during the second stop operation, so the FRU4 symbol with a large number of symbol combinations is not drawn. On the contrary, during the inside of the bonus, the bonus symbol is prioritized over the small winning combination symbol, but if the bonus symbol cannot be drawn, the common symbol of FRU1 and FRU4 (Red Seven symbol / Lip 2 symbol) is performed. / Red watermelon symbol) is pulled in, but since the FRU4 symbol with many symbol combinations is prioritized and pulled in during the second stop operation, the FRU1 symbol with many dividends is not pulled in.

FIG. 55 shows a case where the player performs the first stop operation (correct answer operation) of the left stop button 10a and then the second stop operation of the right stop button 10c. If the first stop operation is the correct answer, the FRU1 Be sure to win a prize, and the bell symbol (small role explicit symbol) will be displayed in a straight line on the upper right, and 9 medals will be paid out. However, although the bell pattern is displayed in a straight line in appearance, it may or may not be on the winning line. Similarly, during the non-internal bonus, the FRU1 symbol with a large payout is preferentially drawn in during the second stop operation, so that the FRU4 symbol with a large number of symbol combinations is not drawn. On the contrary, during the inside of the bonus, the bonus symbol is prioritized over the small winning combination symbol, but if the bonus symbol cannot be retracted, the FRU4 symbol with many symbol combinations is prioritized and retracted during the second stop operation. Therefore, FRU1 symbols with large dividends are not drawn in.

FIG. 56 is a schematic view showing the pattern display state of the window portion in chronological order. However, since FIG. 56 (A) is the same as FIG. 54 (A), a duplicate description will be omitted.

When the player first stops the right stop button 10c in the incorrect answer operation order in the state of FIG. 56 (A), the main control unit 100 refers to the slip frame number table and the corresponding slip frame number. Based on the data, the right drum 2c is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and control is performed to always draw any one of the black BAR symbol, the white BAR symbol, and the cherry symbol into the effective line (FIG. 56 (Fig. 56 (Fig. 56)). B) See). Therefore, one of the three small winning combinations is always stopped on the effective line. In this case, since the black BAR symbol is stopped at the effective line, there is a possibility that only FRU8 will win at this point, and the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is stopped in the lower right row.

In the state of FIG. 56B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the left stop button 10a or the middle stop button 10b can be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation of the left stop button 10a, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is left in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The drum 2a is stopped, and if there is a red seven symbol within the pull-in range, stop control is performed to pull the symbol into the effective line (see FIG. 56 (C)). The 10th red seven symbol can be pulled in when there are 5 symbols 10 to 14 on the effective line, so the pulling probability is 25% (5/20). If the No. 10 red seven symbol cannot be pulled in, the lost stitch symbol is stopped on the effective line, and at the third stop, the obstructive stitch (RT fluctuation trigger symbol) is displayed.

In the state of FIG. 56 (C), the FRU8 is tempered, and two bell symbols (small winning combination explicit symbols) are displayed in a straight line at the lower stage of the display window. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the middle stop button 10b may be operated, and when the player operates the middle stop button 10b for the third stop, the main control unit 100 The unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the middle drum 2b in the range of 0 frames to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and controls to draw the blank symbol into the effective line (FIG. 56). (D)). In the figure, FRU8 wins a prize, and the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line at the bottom, and nine medals are paid out. The blank symbol of No. 15 can be retracted when the symbols of Nos. 15 to 19 are on the effective line, so the probability of attraction is 25% (5/20). On the other hand, if the blank symbol cannot be pulled into the effective line, the picking pattern of the obstructive role (pushing order small role) is displayed (not shown). It should be noted that the same stop control will be omitted even when the middle stop button 10b in the incorrect answer operation order is operated in the first stop.

FIG. 57 is a schematic view showing the pattern display state of the window portion in chronological order. However, since FIG. 57 (A) is the same as FIG. 54 (A), a duplicate description will be omitted.

For example, when the main control unit 100 internally wins the push order bell 2-1 shown in FIG. 52 by random number lottery, the condition device of FRU2 + FRU8 + FRU21 + FRU34 is simultaneously operated (4 different types of 9 small winning combinations are simultaneously activated). Based on the operation order information (middle 1st) stored corresponding to the ROM 101, it is determined that the operation order in the middle is the winning operation order. In this state, the main control unit 100 executes a stop calculation process (process of pulling in the FRU2 symbol in the middle 1st) based on the winning combination, the stop control table, and the score information, and the player stops button unit 10 at what time and timing. Create a sliding frame number table so that stop control can be performed immediately even if you operate. Further, the sliding frame number table is similarly created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation (see the explanation in FIG. 10).

In the state of FIG. 57A, when the player first stops the middle stop button 10b in the correct operation order, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. Then, the middle drum 2b is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and control is performed to draw the 11th bell symbol into the effective line, for example. In the state of FIG. 57B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the left stop button 10a or the right stop button 10c can be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation of the right stop button 10c, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, in the range of 0 to 4 frames. The right drum 2c is stopped, and control is performed to draw the bell symbol into the effective line (see FIG. 57 (C)). In the state of FIG. 57 (C), the FRU2 is tempered and the bell symbol (small combination explicit symbol) is displayed in a straight line. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the left stop button 10a may be operated, and when the left stop button 10a is operated for the third stop, the main control unit 100 , Refer to the sliding frame number table, and stop the left drum 2a in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and perform stop control to draw the bell symbol to the effective line (Fig.). 57 (D)). As a result, if the first stop operation is the correct answer, FRU2 always wins, the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) is displayed in the central straight line which is the effective line, and nine medals are paid out. However, although the bell pattern is displayed in a straight line in appearance, it may or may not be on the winning line. Since the same applies when the first stop operation is the middle stop button 10b and the second stop operation is the left stop button 10a, the description thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 58 is a schematic diagram showing the pattern display state of the window portion in chronological order. However, since FIG. 58 (A) is the same as FIG. 54 (A), a duplicate description will be omitted.

For example, when the main control unit 100 internally wins the push order bell 3-1 shown in FIG. 53 by random number lottery, as described above, the condition device of FRU3 + FRU8 + FRU21 + FRU34 is simultaneously operated (four different types of nine small winning combinations are simultaneously activated). Based on the operation order information (1st on the right) stored corresponding to the ROM 101, it is determined that the operation order on the right is the winning operation order. In this state, the main control unit 100 executes a stop calculation process (a process of pulling in the FRU3 symbol on the right 1st) based on the winning combination, the stop control table, and the score information, and the player stops button unit 10 at what time and timing. Create a sliding frame number table so that stop control can be performed immediately even if you operate. Further, the sliding frame number table is similarly created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation (see the explanation in FIG. 10).

In the state of FIG. 58A, when the player first stops the right stop button 10c in the correct operation order, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. Then, the right drum 2c is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and stop control is performed to draw, for example, the 16th lip 3 symbol into the effective line. In the state of FIG. 58 (B), the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the left stop button 10a or the middle stop button 10b can be operated. When the player performs the second stop operation of the left stop button 10a, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, in the range of 0 to 4 frames. The left drum 2a is stopped, and stop control is performed to draw the yellow watermelon symbol into the effective line (see FIG. 58 (C)). In the state of FIG. 58 (C), the FRU3 is tempered and the bell symbol (small combination explicit symbol) is displayed in the upper row. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the middle stop button 10b may be operated, and when the middle stop button 10b is operated for the third stop, the main control unit 100 , Refer to the sliding frame number table, and stop the middle drum 2b in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and perform stop control to draw the lip 3 symbol to the effective line ( See FIG. 58 (D)). As a result, if the first stop operation is the correct answer, FRU3 will definitely win, and the bell symbol (small winning combination explicit symbol) will be displayed in the upper straight line, which is an invalid line, and nine medals will be paid out. However, although the bell pattern is displayed in a straight line in appearance, it may or may not be on the winning line. The same applies when the first stop operation is the right stop button 10c and the second stop operation is the middle stop button 10b, so the description thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 59 is a game state transition diagram (RT state).

RT0 in the figure is an initial state (non-RT state) in which the winning probability of the replay combination (replay combination) does not change, and the game or bonus 1 (type 1 special combination) immediately after the stage setting value is reset. From the next game in which the bonus continuous operation device (RBB1) related to the object is completed, the general game (or general game) starts in the initial state (also referred to as “initial replay state”). The winning probability (replay probability) of the replay in this general game is about 1 / 7.3, and in particular, the RT1 transition replay (replay 1) and the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) are not internally won, so RT1 from this state. In order to shift to, the above-mentioned bumps of the push order small winning combination must be displayed on the effective line. On the other hand, even if RBB1 is internally elected, activated by symbol display, or ended with a payout exceeding a predetermined number, it will only be RT4, bonus game (in type 1 BB), and RT0, so it is not possible to shift to RT1 even with this route. In addition, bonus 2a (Type 1 special character, RB1) and bonus 2b (Type 1 special character, RB2) are in a replay state even if they are internally elected, a symbol is displayed, or the operation is completed. Since the (RT state) does not fluctuate (shift) and returns to the RT0 state, it is not possible to shift to RT1.

In a general game in the RT0 state, when the push order small role (three-choice push order bell role) is internally won and the stop operation procedure of the stop button 10 is mistaken and the bumpy pattern is displayed on the valid line, the next The game goes into RT1 state (the number of continuous games is not fixed, that is, it is infinite). The replay probability in this RT1 state is also about 1 / 7.3, and most of the combinations shown in FIG. 50 are randomly drawn and can be won individually or at the same time. That is, the game in the initial state and the game in the RT1 state are in the game state of about 1 / 7.3, which has almost the same replay probability, but the normal game in which the player mainly stays is in this RT1 state. However, in this initial state, the RT1 transition replay to the RT2 transition replay are not won, so the transition from the RT1 state to the RT2 state cannot be performed unless the Koboshi pattern is displayed on the valid line.

When the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) is internally won in the RT1 state and the operation symbol is displayed on the valid line, the replay probability fluctuates and shifts to the RT2 state, and the replay probability rises to about 60%. However, it is often lost.

In the RT1 transition replay (replay 1), when the player operates the stop button portion 10, if the 6-choice pressing order is accidentally answered correctly and the RT2 transition replay is activated, the RT2 transition replay is activated, so that the RT1 transition is quickly performed. It has a function to drop it into a state (that is, the same function as a bumpy eye) (fall replay).

Bonus 1 (RBB1) can be won in the initial state, RT1 state and RT2 state role lottery, and there are cases where a prize is won immediately after winning and an actual bonus game is performed, and there are cases where a prize is won through the RT4 state inside the bonus. is there.

The bonus 2a (RB1) and the bonus 2b (RB2) can be won in the initial state, the RT1 state, and the RT2 state by lottery, and since the RT is not changed, the winning RT game state is returned to after the RB game is completed.

The details of the bonus 1 (RBB1) will be described with reference to FIG. 59. The actual bonus game (in 1 type BB) is the general game (normal game) in the actual bonus and the shift regular bonus game (SRB game: after the symbol 2a (RB1) or bonus 2b (RB2) internally won by lottery is displayed. It is roughly divided into RB games to be transferred), and ends when the number of acquired cards exceeds 297. In addition, you may increase the combination of the symbols of bonus 2a and bonus 2b so that if you win the game internally, you will definitely win the game, or if the player aims at the black BAR symbol or the white BAR symbol, you will win the prize. You may do so. There are two types of SRB games, SRB game 1 is advantageous for the player, but SRB game 2 is disadvantageous for the player. Both are designed to end when the small role finishes 8 times or 12 games (a minimum of 2 times or 2 games can be completed). In addition, when both RB1 and RB2 are internally won, the winning state is carried over until a prize is won. The two types of shift regular bonuses are bonus 2a (RB1) and bonus 2b (RB2), but RB3 which is advantageous as SRB and RB4 which is disadvantageous may be separately provided.

Bonus 1 (RBB1) is internally won, and the player stops the left drum 2a (Red Seven), the middle drum 2b (Red Seven), and the right drum 2c (Red Seven) on the effective line. When it is displayed, it becomes a general game (normal game) in the actual bonus from the next game. In the actual bonus general game, the specified number of input sheets is the same as the general game (RT0, RT1 or RT2) in the non-bonus game, and is not changed. Therefore, the winning probability of the small winning combination in the general game of the actual bonus is the same as the winning probability of the small winning combination in the general game of the non-bonus game. A part or all of the lost area and the re-game area in the general game of non-bonus game is the winning area of RBB, but the range is determined at the time of design (design matter). The winning area of the RBB is the range in which either RB1 or RB2 wins. For example, RB1: RB2 is set to 2: 1, which makes it easier for RB1 to win twice as much as RB2 (designed). Matters). Therefore, it is easy to double the advantageous state (RB1).

When RB1 is internally elected in the general game of the actual bonus (BB1) and the RB1 symbols are displayed in line on the effective line, the RB1 game (advantageous regular bonus game) in the actual bonus is started from the next game. In the RB1 game, the specified number of input sheets is changed to one (design matter). A small winning combination of 15 cards is won in all of the winning combination lottery areas (random value 0 to 65535). In addition, it is designed so that RB1 wins at the same time as a small winning combination of 15 cards in a part of the lottery area of the winning combination (design matter). For example, if the simultaneous winning area of RB1 and 15 small wins is 1/3, RB1 will almost certainly be in the state of being internally won during the 8 small wins, so when this RB1 game is finished. Immediately, the next RB1 can be won (design display), and then the RB1 game can be executed. That is, it is a feature of the present invention that the RB1 is internally drawn during the current RB1 game to be in the internal winning state. However, if the lottery including RB2 is performed and the winning probability distribution RB1: RB2 is set to about 10; 1, RB1 can be made 10 times easier to win than RB2 (design matter). Variation 1: In addition, by winning 15 small wins in 2/3 of the lottery area (random value 0 to 65535) of the winning combination and winning 1 small winning combination in the other 1/3, 1 player is awarded. You can also notify when you win a ticket and remove it.

On the other hand, if RB2 is internally elected in the general game of the actual bonus (BB1) and the RB2 symbols are displayed in line on the effective line, it becomes the RB2 game (unfavorable regular bonus game) in the actual bonus from the next game. .. In the RB2 game, the specified number of input sheets remains the same, and it is not changed from the general game of the actual bonus (BB1) (design matter). In the lottery area of the combination, the small combination winning area in the general game of the actual bonus (BB1) remains the same, but the small combination is further won in a part of the lost area of the general game or the re-game area of the general game. Become. As a result, an average of 4 cards are paid out per game, so 1 card is added per game (design matter). SRB game 2 ends when the small role wins 8 times or finishes 12 games, but as a result, only about 8 cards are increased. However, it can also be designed so that there is no increase or decrease with an increase of 3 cards on average per game, or a decrease with an increase of less than 3 cards. That is, in the RB2 game, the medals do not increase or decrease as a result, which is disadvantageous. In addition, neither RB1 nor RB2 is drawn during the RB2 game. However, if RB1 and RB2 are also drawn by lottery and the winning probability distribution RB1: RB2 is about 1: 1, the winning probabilities of RB1 and RB2 can be made the same (design matter). Then, the player will wish for the internal winning of RB1 during the RB2 game, and will be excited and impressed. Further, in the RB2 game, the number of medals does not increase or decreases as a result, which is disadvantageous. Further, if the RB2 is drawn by lottery during the RB2 game, it can be further disadvantageous (design matter).

That is, the actual bonus (BB1) is a heaven in which RB1 wins an internal prize in a general game and becomes an advantageous RB1 game, RB1 further wins internally during the RB1 game, and RB1 operates immediately after the end of the RB1 game. Become a pattern. On the other hand, in the actual bonus (BB1), RB2 wins an internal prize in a general game and becomes a disadvantageous RB2 game, and the medals increase (or increase or decrease or decrease) a little during the RB2 game, and the RB2 game The game of drawing an advantageous RB1 or an unfavorable RB2 in the general game after the end is repeated, and the actual bonus (BB1) ends when the number of acquired RB1 exceeds 297. Then, the game property is such that the state shifts to the RT0 state shown in FIG. 59.

FIG. 60 is a game state transition diagram (effect state).

The main control unit 100 controls the ball ejection performance, determines all the game states (game mode numbers) shown in FIG. 60, and manages information on which game state is currently in (mode number). The game status information) is notified to the sub-control unit 160. On the other hand, the sub-control unit 160 controls the effect, and only executes various effects based on the game state information received from the main control unit 100, and is irrelevant to the ball ejection performance.

The main control unit 100 manages the gaming state in the gaming states of mode numbers 1 to 19. The normal game in the non-ART state has a low probability state in which the ART winning probability is predetermined and a high probability state in which the ART winning probability is high. If you win the ART in a normal game, you will shift to the ART game through the ART precursor state. When RBB1 is internally elected in a normal game and a symbol is displayed, it becomes a bonus game. During this bonus game, an ART lottery is performed according to the internal winning combination, the ART is won with a probability of about 1/3, and the game shifts to the ART game after the initial state. When RB2a or RB2b is internally elected in a normal game and a symbol is displayed, it becomes a mission game (RB game). During this mission game, an ART lottery is performed according to the internal winning combination, the ART is won with a probability of about 1/5, and the game shifts to the ART game through the RT state at the time of RB winning.

This ART game has three internal modes, and a mode transition lottery is performed after a predetermined number of games have been exhausted. As for the addition of ART games, the extra lottery is performed according to the three internal modes when the rare role is won, and the probability of winning in the additional lottery is internal mode (low probability) <internal mode (medium probability) < It is in internal mode (high probability). If the actual bonus (RBB1 or RB) is won during the ART game and the bonus game returns to the ART game, the ART game is restarted from the internal mode (high probability) state. In addition, when the role of Rare is won, a transition lottery is also held for the battle game according to the internal mode, and if the battle game is won, a battle production that continues for several games is performed, and if the enemy is defeated, it wins. The number of games will be added. In the battle defeat, it may be transferred to the additional special zone by lottery.

If RBB1 is won in the ART state, it will be a bonus game, and the ART stock and addition will be displayed at the end of the game. If RBB1 is won in the ART state, it will be a battle game with the enemy boss, and if the physical strength gauge of the enemy boss is reduced according to the internal winning combination and set to 0, the number of games will be added. Furthermore, when the rare role is won in the ART state, an orb (game privilege) acquisition lottery is held, and if the orb is won, one or more orbs are given. This orb is used in the ART end waiting state (danger zone) when the number of ART games is exhausted, and the number of ART games can be acquired. The CZ (chance zone) is an additional special zone that is entered when the player wins the CZ lottery at the time of defeat in the battle. In particular, when the number of games is added, the special addition described with reference to FIGS. 37 and 38 may be executed.

FIG. 61 is a diagram showing a game state transition diagram (RT state) and a game state.

RT0 in FIG. 61 (A) is an initial state (non-RT state) in which the winning probability of the replay combination (replay combination) does not change, and the game or bonus 1 (first) immediately after the stage setting value is reset. The general game (or general game) starts in the initial state (also referred to as "initial replay state") from the next game in which the accessory continuous operation device (RBB1) relating to the type 1 special accessory is completed. The winning probability (replay probability) of the replay in this general game is about 1 / 7.3, and in particular, the RT1 transition replay (replay 1) and the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) are not internally won, so RT1 from this state. In order to shift to, the above-mentioned bumps of the push order small winning combination must be displayed on the effective line. On the other hand, even if RBB1 is internally elected, RBB1 is activated by symbol display, or even if it ends with payout exceeding a predetermined number, it will only be RT4, bonus game (in 1 type BB), RT0, so this route will also shift to RT1. It is not possible.

In a general game in the RT0 state, when the push order small role (three-choice push order bell role) is internally won and the stop operation procedure of the stop button 10 is mistaken and the bumpy pattern is displayed on the valid line, the next The game goes into RT1 state (the number of continuous games is not fixed, that is, it is infinite). The replay probability in this RT1 state is also about 1 / 7.3, and most of the combinations shown in FIG. 50 are randomly drawn and can be won individually or at the same time. That is, the game in the initial state and the game in the RT1 state are in the game state of about 1 / 7.3, which has almost the same replay probability, but the normal game in which the player mainly stays is in this RT1 state. However, in this initial state, the RT1 transition replay to the RT2 transition replay are not won, so the transition from the RT1 state to the RT2 state cannot be performed unless the Koboshi pattern is displayed on the valid line.

When the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) is internally won in the RT1 state and the operation symbol is displayed on the valid line, the replay probability fluctuates and shifts to the RT2 state, and the replay probability rises to about 60%. However, it is often lost.

In the RT1 transition replay (replay 1), when the player operates the stop button portion 10, if the 6-choice pressing order is accidentally answered correctly and the RT2 transition replay is activated, the RT2 transition replay is activated, so that the RT1 transition is quickly performed. It has a function to drop it into a state (that is, the same function as a bumpy eye) (fall replay).

The actual bonus (RBB) can be won in the initial state, RT1 state, and RT2 state by lottery, and the prize is won after the RT4 state in the bonus. In addition, since this actual bonus (RBB) is internally won at the same time as the small role in the role lottery, the game that is internally won will not be won immediately. Further, although the actual bonus is a type 1 accessory continuous operation device, it may be a type 1 accessory (RB: regular bonus) or a type 2 accessory continuous operation device. The specified number of medals (game media) is 3 or 1, and the actual bonus (RBB) is drawn with the specified number of 3 medals, but the actual bonus (RBB) is not drawn with the specified number of 1 so it is disadvantageous. is there.

When the actual bonus (RBB) is internally won and the carry-over state (inside the RBB) is reached, the RT4 state (the winning probability of the re-game is about 1/2) is set after the next game. In this carry-over state, a plurality of small wins and replay wins are drawn, but the actual bonus is not drawn (excluded from the win lottery). In addition, the actual bonus can be drawn on the effective line when the player loses the net (unwinned), so if the player throws in the specified number of cards, the actual bonus will be lost (unwinned). It is more advantageous than inserting 3 cards because the winning probability is greatly increased. That is, the net loss probability L1 of one specified number is set to be larger than the net loss probability L3 of three specified numbers (L1> L3). In addition, as a variation example, when a pure loss (unwinning) or a rare small role such as a cherry or watermelon role is won, a bonus symbol can be made to win on the effective line. The actual bonus (RBB) is internally won, the RBB is activated by displaying the symbol from the carry-over state (inside the RBB), the actual bonus game ends with a payout exceeding a predetermined number, and the game shifts to RT0.

With reference to FIG. 61 (B), in the main control unit 100, a plurality of types of symbols are arranged on the outer peripheral surface in a state where three or one (or two) of a predetermined number of game media are inserted. Allows you to start a symbol display game that rotates multiple roundabouts. At the timing when the start lever is operated, the main control unit 100 draws a winning combination, and when it receives the operation of the stop button provided corresponding to each rotating cylinder, the corresponding symbol sequence is individually stopped. .. The main control unit 100 grants a game medium (medal or credit) based on the lottery result of the winning combination and the display result of the symbol stopped on the valid line.

At the start of the game after the set value is reset, the game is generally a normal game, but there is an advantageous game (assist game) that is more advantageous than the normal game, and the main control unit 100 shifts between the normal game and the advantageous game. Is designed to control. Further, the main control unit 100 activates the instruction function in the advantageous game, and determines the activation amount (initial AT quantity such as the number of games and the number of payouts and the additional quantity). For example, when the push order small winning combination is won, the player is instructed on the operation order of the stop switch and the operation position of the stop switch. The main control unit 100 refers to the number of games from the state in which the actual bonus combination is internally won to the time when the actual bonus combination becomes operable in the advantageous game. For example, the game in which the actual bonus combination is internally won is set to 0, and the amount of activation of the assist function is determined based on the number of games by referring to the number of games in which the game is in a purely lost state. Specifically, if the number of reference games is 1 or 2, the initial number of games is 100, and if the number of reference games is 3 or 4, the number of initial games is 80 and the number of reference games is 5. If there are games or 6 games, the initial number of games is 50, and if the number of reference games is 7 or later, the initial number of games is 30. Note that this reference data is determined in the game in which the actual bonus combination is internally won. Therefore, when the actual bonus combination is internally won in the advantageous game, the player is likely to draw a net loss by betting one card, so that the player throws one card. In addition, the main control unit 100 instructs the player to place a bet when the actual bonus combination is internally won in the advantageous game. For example, the main control unit 100 instructs to press and hold the max bet button 8, and in that case, the number of inserted sheets is changed from 3 to 1 by pressing and holding. The sub-control unit 160 directs the max bet button 8 to be pressed and held. That is, as the specified number of game media required to start the symbol display game, there are a first specified number (3 bets) and a second specified number (1 bet) less than the first specified number, and a bonus. In the state where the winning combination is internally won, the probability of net loss is set higher for the second specified number than for the first specified number, so there is a high probability that it will be possible to display the operation symbol of the bonus combination. It has become.

FIG. 64 is a diagram showing a game state transition diagram (RT state) and a game state.

The difference from FIG. 61 is that the main control unit 100 shifts the next symbol display game to the advantageous section game when the bonus combination is internally won in the combination lottery in the normal section game. Further, the main control unit 100 can activate the instruction function in the advantageous section game, but refers to the number of games until it becomes possible to display the operation symbol of the bonus combination internally won in the combination lottery. Determine the amount of activation. If the activation amount is 0, the special game is unwinned, but if the special game (AT or ART) is won, one or more games (1 game to 500 games) are determined as the activation amount. When the remaining activation amount becomes 0 in the special game, the main control unit 100 shifts from the special game to the normal section game when the fall condition is satisfied. Others are the same as in FIG. 61, so the description is incorporated.

FIG. 62 is a diagram showing a game state transition diagram (RT state) and a game state. The following examples are modifications of the invention described with reference to FIG.

RT0 in FIG. 62 (A) is an initial state (non-RT state) in which the winning probability of the replay combination (replay combination) does not fluctuate, and the game or bonus (first) immediately after the stage setting value is reset. From the next game in which the bonus continuous operation device (RBB) related to the seed special bonus is completed, the general game (or general game) starts in the initial state (also referred to as “initial replay state”). The winning probability (replay probability) of the replay in this general game is about 1 / 7.3, and in particular, the RT1 transition replay (replay 1) and the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) are not internally won, so RT1 from this state. In order to shift to, the above-mentioned bumps of the push order small winning combination must be displayed on the effective line. On the other hand, even if the RBB is internally won, the RBB carry-over game, the RBB is activated by the symbol display, or the payout exceeds a predetermined number (for example, 360), RT4, RBB internal RT, bonus game (1 type BB) ), Since it is only RT0, it is not possible to move to RT1 even with this route.

In a general game in the RT0 state, when the push order small role (three-choice push order bell role) is internally won and the stop operation procedure of the stop button 10 is mistaken and the bumpy pattern is displayed on the valid line, the next The game goes into RT1 state (the number of continuous games is not fixed, that is, it is infinite). The replay probability in this RT1 state is also about 1 / 7.3, and most of the winning combinations shown in FIG. 50 are randomly drawn, and one or more winning combinations can be won at the same time. That is, the game in the initial state and the game in the RT1 state are in the game state of about 1 / 7.3, which has almost the same replay probability, but the normal game in which the player mainly stays is in this RT1 state. However, in this initial state, the RT1 transition replay to the RT2 transition replay are not won, so the transition from the RT1 state to the RT2 state cannot be performed unless the Koboshi pattern is displayed on the valid line.

When the RT2 transition replay (replay 2) is internally won in the RT1 state, the push order is correct and the operation symbol is displayed on the valid line, the replay probability fluctuates and the replay probability shifts to the RT2 state. It rises to about 67%. In this RT2 state, the loss becomes 0. However, the probability of loss can be set to about 1/65536 to 100/65536. On the other hand, depending on the design, it is possible to win the loss more frequently (about 1000/65536).

In the RT1 transition replay (replay 1), when the player operates the stop button portion 10, if the 6-choice pressing order is accidentally answered correctly and the RT2 transition replay is activated, the RT2 transition replay is activated, so that the RT1 transition is quickly performed. It has a function to drop it into a state (that is, the same function as a bumpy eye) (fall replay).

The actual bonus (RBB) can be won by the combination lottery in the RT0 state, RT1 state and RT2 state in the initial state, and the prize is won after the RT4 state inside the bonus (carrying over). In addition, since this actual bonus (RBB) is internally won at the same time as the small role in the role lottery, the game that is internally won will not be won immediately. Further, although the actual bonus RBB is a type 1 accessory continuous operation device, it may be a type 1 accessory (RB: regular bonus) or a type 2 accessory continuous operation device. The specified number of medals (game media) is 3 or 1, and when the RBB is not won, the actual bonus (RBB) is drawn with the specified number of 3 medals, but the actual bonus is drawn with the specified number of 1 (RBB) is not drawn, which is disadvantageous to the player.

When the actual bonus (RBB) is internally won and the carry-over state (inside the RBB) is reached, the RT4 state (the winning probability of the re-game is about 1/2) is set after the next game. In this carry-over state, a plurality of small wins and replay wins are drawn, but the actual bonus is not drawn (excluded from the win lottery). In addition, the actual bonus can be drawn on the effective line when the player loses the net (unwinned), so if the player throws in the specified number of cards, the actual bonus will be lost (unwinned). It is more advantageous than inserting 3 cards because the winning probability is greatly increased. That is, the net loss probability L1 of one specified number is set to be larger than the net loss probability L3 of three specified numbers (L1> L3). In addition, as a variation example, when a pure loss (unwinning) or a rare small role such as a cherry or watermelon role is won, a bonus symbol can be made to win on the effective line. The actual bonus (RBB) is internally won, the RBB is activated by displaying the symbol from the carry-over state (inside the RBB), the actual bonus game ends with a payout exceeding a predetermined number, and the game shifts to RT0.

With reference to FIG. 62 (B), the main control unit 100 has a plurality of types of symbols on the outer peripheral surface in a state where three or one (or two, depending on the design) of the specified number of game media are inserted. It is possible to start a symbol display game in which a plurality of arranged circumferences are rotated. At the timing when the start lever is operated, the main control unit 100 draws a winning combination, and when it receives the operation of the stop button provided corresponding to each rotating cylinder, the corresponding symbol sequence is individually stopped. .. The main control unit 100 grants a game medium (medal or credit) based on the lottery result of the winning combination and the display result of the symbol stopped on the valid line.

At the start of the game after the set value is reset, the game is generally a normal game, but there is an advantageous game (assist game) that is more advantageous than the normal game, and the main control unit 100 shifts between the normal game and the advantageous game. Is designed to control. Further, the main control unit 100 activates the instruction function in the advantageous game, and determines the activation amount (initial AT quantity such as the number of games and the number of payouts and the additional quantity). In particular, the main control unit 100 grants a special game (ART winning) when the bonus combination is internally won in the advantageous game. This special game is a game in which the operation order is notified in order to win a small winning combination, and is also commonly referred to as an assist bonus, a third bonus, or an ART game. In addition, the number of lower-level games instructing the insertion of one card is determined. The advantageous game is the game period from the establishment of the transition condition to the establishment of the fall condition.

The main control unit 100 turns on the advantageous section display LED 4g when shifting to the advantageous game, and turns off the advantageous section display LED 4g when shifting to the normal game. For example, in an advantageous game, when the push order small winning combination is won, the player is instructed to operate the stop switch and the operation position (operation timing) of the stop switch. The main control unit 100 refers to the number of games from the state in which the actual bonus combination is internally won to the time when the actual bonus combination becomes operable in the advantageous game. For example, the game in which the actual bonus combination is internally won is set to 0, and the amount of activation of the assist function is determined based on the number of games by referring to the number of games in which the game is in a purely lost state. Specifically, if the number of reference games is 1 or 2, the initial number of games is 100, and if the number of reference games is 3 or 4, the number of initial games is 80 and the number of reference games is 5. If there are games or 6 games, the initial number of games is 50, and if the number of reference games is 7 or later, the initial number of games is 30. That is, the shorter the number of games until the net loss is drawn, the larger the number of initial games given. Note that this reference data is determined in the game in which the actual bonus combination is internally won. Therefore, when the actual bonus combination is internally won in the advantageous game, the player is likely to draw a net loss by betting one card, which is a problem.

Therefore, the main control unit 100 determines the number of games instructing to bet one card when the actual bonus combination is internally won in the advantageous game. For example, assuming that the number of games played is 5, the main control unit 100 instructs the sub-control unit 160 to press and hold the max bet button 8 in the fifth game, and in that case, press and hold the max bet button 8 for about 3 seconds. Then, the number of inserted sheets is changed from 3 sheets to 1 sheet. That is, the three to two sheets that have been inserted are paid to the lower plate, and one sheet is inserted. The sub-control unit 160 directs the max bet button 8 to be pressed and held. That is, as the specified number of game media required to start the symbol display game, there are a first specified number (3 bets) and a second specified number (1 bet) less than the first specified number, and a bonus. In the state where the winning combination is internally won, the probability of net loss is set higher for the second specified number than for the first specified number, so there is a high probability that it will be possible to display the operation symbol of the bonus combination. It has become. If the player bets one card without the instruction of the second specified number (one bet), the main control unit 100 does not refer to this number of games even if the winning combination is a net loss. .. For example, even if one bet is made in the first game and a net loss occurs, the player does not judge that it is possible to display the operation symbol of the bonus combination from the state where the bonus combination is internally won, so the player reverses. Will be disadvantageous. In addition, if the player bets 3 cards in the first game and becomes a net loss (before the number of games instructing to bet 1 card), it means that the player has drawn the loss by himself. Since the control unit 100 determines that it is possible to display the operation symbol of the bonus combination from the state in which the bonus combination is internally won, the player is advantageous. In the special game, the main control unit 100 determines the additional amount (activation amount) when the bonus combination is internally elected, and adds and grants the additional amount. The main control unit 100 shifts to a special game after the bonus game based on the bonus combination by displaying the bonus symbol.

FIG. 65 is a diagram showing a game state transition diagram (RT state) and a game state.

The difference from FIG. 62 is that the main control unit 100 shifts the next symbol display game to the advantageous section game when the bonus combination is internally won in the combination lottery in the normal section game. Further, the main control unit 100 can activate the instruction function in the advantageous section game, but refers to the number of games until it becomes possible to display the operation symbol of the bonus combination internally won in the combination lottery. Determine the amount of activation. If the activation amount is 0, the special game is unwinned, but if the special game (AT or ART) is won, one or more games (1 game to 500 games) are determined as the activation amount. When the remaining activation amount becomes 0 in the special game, the main control unit 100 shifts from the special game to the normal section game when the fall condition is satisfied. Others are the same as in FIG. 62, so the description is incorporated.

FIG. 63 is an explanatory diagram showing a flow of granting a special game (assist game).

The main control unit 100 controls the progress of a symbol display game in which a plurality of rotating cylinders in which a plurality of types of symbols are arranged on the outer peripheral surface are rotated (see FIG. 63 (A)). The stage setting value is reset, the symbol display game becomes a normal section (normal section game), and the first game can be started when a specified number of medals are inserted. The normal section game is a section game in which the instruction function does not operate. The symbol display game has an advantageous section (advantageous section game) that is more advantageous than the normal section game because the instruction function can be operated, and the main control unit 100 controls the transition between the normal section game and the advantageous section game. Advantageous section During the game, the advantageous section display LED 4g is turned on.

The main control unit 100 draws most of the combinations shown in FIG. 50 by random number lottery. In particular, this bonus role is drawn when the bonus role (RB: 1 type role) has not been internally won, but the bonus role is not drawn during the carry-over. The main control unit 100 starts the bonus game when the operation symbol of the internally elected bonus combination is displayed. Further, the main control unit 100 has a function of determining whether or not to shift to an assist game (special game) in an advantageous section game, and in this assist game, a push order combination (push order small combination or push order replay combination). Etc.) to notify the operation mode of the stop switch. For example, the order of pressing the stop switch is to aim at the middle right / left or red 7, aim at blue 7, aim at the black bar, and so on. The end of the bonus game based on the bonus combination (RB: type 1 accessory) is when the result of the first predetermined game is obtained or when the second small combination is won, and the second The predetermined time is set to either equal to the first predetermined time or smaller than the first predetermined time. For example, the end of the bonus game is when 12 games are exhausted or when a prize is won 8 times (12 games> 8 times). It can also be equal when 8 games are digested, or when 8 games are won (8 games = 8 times).

The main control unit 100 starts the bonus game when the operation symbol of the internally elected bonus combination is displayed. Further, the main control unit 100 has a function of determining whether or not to shift to an assist game (special game) in an advantageous section game, and in this assist game, a push order combination (push order small combination or push order replay combination). Etc.) to notify the operation mode of the stop switch. Specifically, when the main control unit 100 notifies the player of the operation mode of the stop switch which is advantageous to the player, the main control unit 100 transmits a command to the sub control unit 160, and the sub control unit 160 uses a liquid crystal display, voice, LED, or the like. It notifies the player and assists (assists) the winning.

With reference to FIG. 63 (B), the operation symbols of the bonus combination are red seven for the left rotating body, red seven for the middle rotating body, and red seven for the right rotating body. Since the bonus role is won at the same time as the special replay role and the rare small role, the winning game will be in a carry-over state (RB carry-over state) without winning a prize. The pull-in small winning combination that can display the operation symbol of the internally won bonus combination is a red seven for the left rotating cylinder, a black BAR or a white BAR for the middle rotating cylinder, and a black BAR or a white BAR for the right rotating cylinder. In the normal section game in the RB carry-over state, the main control unit 100 shifts from the normal section game to the advantageous section game when the pull-in small winning combination is internally won (single internal winning). When the player aims at the red seven symbol on the left-handed torso and stops the game in this single internal winning state, the main control unit 100 stops the red seven symbol within the pull-in range on the effective line. In this state, the red seven symbol of the common symbol is stopped, so not only the pull-in small role but also the bonus role can be won.

Subsequently, when the stop operation is performed aiming at the black BAR symbol or the white BAR symbol of the middle rotation body in the second stop operation, the main control unit 100 stops the black BAR symbol or the white BAR symbol within the pull-in range on the effective line. Let's make the pull-in small role into a tempai state. Finally, when the stop operation is performed aiming at the black BAR symbol or the white BAR symbol of the right-handed cylinder in the third stop operation, the main control unit 100 stops the black BAR symbol or the white BAR symbol within the pull-in range on the effective line. Let them win a small draw-in role and pay out one medal. On the other hand, when the stop operation is performed aiming at the red seven symbol in the third stop operation, the main control unit 100 does not have a black BAR symbol or a white BAR symbol within the pull-in range and cannot be stopped on the effective line. You will miss the role.

On the contrary, when the red seven symbol of the common symbol is stopped on the effective line of the left rotating cylinder, the main control unit 100 is stopped by aiming at the red seven symbol of the middle rotating cylinder by the second stop operation. Stop the Red Seven symbol within the pull-in range on the effective line and put the bonus role in the Tempai state. When the third stop operation is performed to stop the red seven symbol on the right-handed cylinder, the main control unit 100 stops the red seven symbol within the pull-in range on the effective line and displays the bonus operation symbol. , Activate the bonus role. The main control unit 100 starts the bonus game from the next game, triggered by displaying the operation symbol of the internally won bonus combination. That is, the bonus game is started when the small winning combination is not won and the operation symbol of the bonus is displayed. On the other hand, when the stop operation is performed aiming at the black BAR symbol or the white BAR symbol in the third stop operation, the main control unit 100 does not have the red seven symbol in the pull-in range and cannot be stopped on the effective line. Will be missed. If the bonus role is missed, it is necessary to wait until the next small winning combination is internally elected, in which case the bonus role can be won.

As described above, the attracting small winning combination may be elected independently, but preferably the attracting small winning combination and the blocking small winning combination may be elected at the same time. The winning combination of the pull-in small role and the obstructive small role is called the bonus pull-in role. In the normal section game in the RB carry-over state, when the bonus pull-in combination is internally elected and the stop operation is performed aiming at the red seven symbol of the left-handed trunk, the main control unit 100 puts the red seven symbol within the pull-in range on the effective line. Stop it. In this state, the red seven symbol of the common symbol is stopped, so it is possible to win not only the small draw-in combination but also the bonus combination (the same as described above). On the other hand, since the replay of the obstruction small role symbol has not stopped on the left-handed trunk, the obstruction small role cannot be won. In the normal section game in the RB carry-over state, when the bonus pull-in combination is internally won, when the player's first stop operation is the middle torso, the main control unit 100 has a replay symbol (pull-in 100%) within the pull-in range. On the other hand, when the player's first stop operation is the right-handed torso, the main control unit 100 stops the bell symbol (pull-in 100%) within the pull-in range on the effective line. The main control unit 100 sets an operation mode (for example, middle first or right first) for not displaying the operation symbol of the bonus combination when the bonus attraction combination is internally won during the special game in which the bonus combination is internally won. A command for notifying is transmitted to the sub-control unit 160, and the sub-control unit 160 notifies the player by a liquid crystal display, voice, LED, etc., and assists (assists) the bonus combination so as not to win a prize.

The winning area of the small winning combination in the bonus game will be described with reference to FIG. 63 (C). The main control unit 100 extracts Rd1 which is one of the continuously generated random numbers 0 to 65535, triggered by the operation of the start lever. The main control unit 100 subtracts the optotype L1 from Rd1, and if it becomes a negative value, it wins 1. If it is not a negative value, the integer L2 is further subtracted from that value, and if it becomes a negative value, it is won 2 and if it is not a negative value, it is won 3 (that is, pure loss). However, as a variation, the winning 3 (pure loss) area may be eliminated. The specified number of bonus games is three.

In Winning 1, the three types of 9-card small wins (FRU1 to FRU3) described in FIGS. 51 to 53, the rare small wins (cherry, watermelon) described in FIG. 50, and the 9-card increase small win are duplicated. .. In Winning 2, the three types of 9-card small wins (FRU1 to FRU3) described in FIGS. 51 to 53, the rare small wins (cherry, watermelon) and 1-card small wins described in FIG. The roles are duplicated. The 9-card increase small role is a small role that is missed when aiming at the white BAR pattern on all of the left-handed torso, middle-handed torso, and right-handed torso during the bonus game. The total number of payouts is smaller than the total number of input due to the overlapping of the winning areas of the three types of 9-card small wins (see Patent Document 5). In Winning 2, a plurality of one-card small wins and one-card increase small wins described with reference to FIGS. 50 to 53 are duplicated. The one-card increase small role is a small role that is missed when aiming at the black BAR pattern on all of the left-handed torso, middle-handed torso, and right-handed torso during the bonus game. Winning 3 is a pure loss, so no prize will be awarded. That is, if a pure loss is drawn, it will be missed without a push and will be counted as the number of non-winnings, which is advantageous for the player.

The main control unit 100 shifts to the advantageous section game when the pull-in small winning combination is internally won in the normal section game in which the bonus combination is internally won. Then, the main control unit 100 starts the bonus game when the pull-in small winning combination is not won and the operation symbol of the bonus winning combination is displayed. The main control unit 100 ends when the bonus game is exhausted up to 12 games or when the bonus game is won 8 times, and continuously counts the number of times the small winning combination is not won (the number of non-winning times) during the bonus game. .. The maximum number of non-winning times for this small role is 12. The main control unit 100 determines the transition to the special game based on the number of non-winning small wins. For example, when the bonus game ends, the main control unit 100 may win the special game with a 100% probability if the number of non-winning small wins is 12 times. On the other hand, in the case of a winning or losing lottery, if the number of non-winning small wins is 12, the winning is decided with a 95% probability, if it is 11 times, the winning is decided with a 90% probability, and if it is 10 times. There is a 70% chance of winning, a 50% chance of winning 9 times, a 40% chance of winning 8 times, and a 10% chance of 4-7 times. The winning may be decided with the probability of 3 times or less, and the winning may be decided with the probability of 10%. When the bonus game is completed, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not the game is successful, transmits a determination result command to the sub control unit 160, and the sub control unit 160 notifies the result of the special game by a liquid crystal display, voice, LED, or the like. When the special game is won, the main control unit 100 starts the special game at a predetermined timing, but if the special game is lost, the main control unit 100 shifts and controls the game state to either the advantageous section game or the normal section game.

FIG. 68 is a transition diagram of a game state (RT state) and a game state.

As described with reference to FIG. 50, the main control unit 100 determines a bonus combination, a plurality of types of small combinations (including a rare combination and a push order small combination), and a plurality of types of replay combinations by lottery. To be used. However, there is only one type of bonus combination, and even if the bonus combination is won, the winning probability of the re-game does not change, and the number of medals is reduced in the bonus game. The present invention relates to a so-called AT machine that maintains a state in which a bonus combination is internally won.

The rotating cylinder type game machine executes a symbol display game in which a plurality of rotating cylinders in which a plurality of types of symbols are arranged on the outer peripheral surface are rotated. When the winning combination lottery means provided in the main control unit 100 draws a winning combination and receives the operation of the stopping means provided corresponding to each rotating cylinder, the corresponding symbol trains are individually stopped and the symbols are displayed. Then, the game medium is given according to the display mode of the symbol.

As the specified number of game media required to start the symbol display game, three (first specified number) and two less (second specified number: one may be used) are set. Only the game in preparation is played with the specified number of two cards, and the manufacturer or the game hall plays the game. In the initial state (RT0) where the winning probability of the re-game combination does not fluctuate, when the specified number of 2 cards are inserted, the main control unit 100 draws 1 small combination or 2 small combination, lost or re-game combination by lottery. (Refer to FIG. 68 (B), 2 sheets before RT fluctuation). When one small winning combination or two small winning combination wins and a variable symbol is displayed, the main control unit 100 changes the winning probability of the re-gaming combination in a finite number of sections in a predetermined number of games. Set to RT1) (see Fig. 68 (B) after playing the game first with two cards and shifting to a finite RT before getting inside the bonus). This finite number of predetermined games is a value that cannot be completed in reality (predetermined number of times N), for example, a value of 16777216 of 256 × 256 × 256 in 3 bytes, and 256 × 256 × 256 in 4 bytes. It is preferable to use the value of 4294967296 of × 256. Further, the number of times N may be a value of 16777216 or more of 3 bytes. When the replay combination is determined by lottery, the main control unit 100 wins a replay and displays a variable symbol, and similarly, the replay probability fluctuates state (RT1) by a predetermined number of times N. In RT1, all of the lost areas of RT0 are the winning areas of the re-game combination (however, 1/65536 to 1/65536 may be lost). In the re-game probability fluctuation state (RT1) in the bonus internal winning state, even if you play a game with two cards, you will not lose, and the main control unit 100 gives priority to replay over the bonus role and priority over the small role over the bonus role. Since the design is drawn in, the bonus will not be won.

When the game shifts to the re-game probability fluctuation state (RT1) and the next game is performed by multiplying three cards, the main control unit 100 has a small winning combination winning area such as a push order small winning combination, a bonus winning combination and a one small winning combination winning area. The winning combination is determined by lottery from the replay winning area where the RT does not fluctuate, and the number of remaining RT games in the replay probability fluctuating state is set to N-1. The number of digested RT games in the replay probability fluctuation state may be set to 1. That is, both can be said to be the number of games counted until the predetermined number of games is reached. Assuming that the bonus role and one small role are won in the 10th game, the number of remaining RT games is N-10 (10 digested RT games), and the pattern is drawn in with priority given to the small role over the bonus role, so the bonus is No prize will be won, and one small winning combination will be won or missed (non-winning). Even if this bonus combination is won, the main control unit 100 maintains the winning probability of the re-game at RT1 (or does not change it as RT1). The game up to this point is the game in preparation, and from the next game, the bonus is inside (the bonus role is being carried over), and the general game can be started. In the preparing game, the main control unit 100 displays a warning sound and a warning message saying "Preparing", while ending the warning sound and the warning message when the inside of the bonus is inside. The general game (designed symbol display game) includes a normal game and an advantageous game that is more advantageous than this normal game and can activate an instruction function, and the main control unit 100 receives the execution of the symbol display game. A lottery related to the instruction function is performed with reference to the number of remaining RT games subtracted from the predetermined number of games N (or the number of digested RT games counted with the execution of the symbol display game). Further, the main control unit 100 refers to the lottery result of the role (cherry, watermelon, chance eye, rare role such as special replay, etc.) and the number of remaining RT games, and draws a lottery regarding the instruction function. ..

As described above, if the number of two-card loss is set to 1 to 10, it is possible to win a bonus role in the case of a loss in a general game inside the bonus. When the winning symbol of the bonus role is displayed, it becomes a three-card real bonus game (during BB), ends with a payout exceeding a predetermined number, and returns to the initial state (RT0). In addition, if the bonus is established by mistakenly multiplying the three cards first, it is possible to return to the initial state again by aligning the bonuses with the two cards.

FIG. 69 is a pattern arrangement table of the drum.

On each of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, a rotating drum band (not shown) on which the left drum symbol, the middle drum symbol, and the right drum symbol are drawn goes around the outer periphery of each drum. It is stuck on.

Twenty symbols in different arrangements are arranged on each torso belt. There are two types of bonus roles, and although it is anomalous, the symbol "BAR / watermelon / red seven" that activates the bonus role 1 (a continuous operation device for the character related to the first type special character; hereinafter referred to as "RBB1"), The symbol "BAR / watermelon / blue seven" that activates the bonus combination 2 (the accessory continuous operation device related to the first-class special accessory; hereinafter referred to as "RBB2"), and the symbol "BAR / watermelon / blue seven" that constitutes various small roles and replay roles. Ten kinds of patterns of "Nakagami Cherry", "Nakashita Cherry", "Hanagami Blank", "Hanashita Blank", "Bell" and "Replay" are drawn. Although the bonus combination will be described as an RBB, it may be an RB (type 1 special accessory) or an MBB (a continuous operation device for the accessory related to the type 2 special accessory).

FIG. 70 is a combination display determination diagram of symbols.

When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 determines a combination display of symbols related to winning and operation on the effective line of the window unit 3 according to the number of game medals inserted (dedicated to three general games). (See FIG. 70 (A)).

FIG. 70B is an effective line when a specified number of three game medals are inserted, and the first line (middle stage, middle stage, middle stage: center) in the order of the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c. Only one of the horizontal straight lines) is valid. Even in the bonus game (RBB: when the first-class accessory continuous operation device is operated), the specified number of game medals is three, and the effective line is exactly the same only in the first line.

FIG. 71 is a payout table and the like when the accessory is not operating (during a normal game, a specified number of 3 cards). FIG. 72 is a game state transition diagram and a conceptual diagram showing lottery probabilities of various combinations.

When all three drums are stopped, the main control unit 100 determines a combination display of symbols related to winning or operation on an effective line (see FIG. 70) according to the number of inserted game medals. In this case, the number of inserted sheets is three, and the effective line is only one line in the center horizontal direction.

(1) Bonus combination 1 (RBB1: continuous operation device for accessory related to first-class special accessory): When BAR on the left drum 2a, watermelon on the middle drum 2b, and red seven on the right drum 2c stop on the effective line. The number of acquired cards is 0, and then the big bonus game 1 (RBB1 game) is given. There is only one type of combination symbol of the bonus combination, and even if the player wins the game independently, if the stop operation timing of the stop button unit 10 does not match, the above-mentioned predetermined bonus combination symbol will not stop on the valid line. Will be carried over to. This RBB1 game is designed to end when the number of payouts (acquired number) exceeds 59, but the number of input is 3 and the expected value of the number of payouts per game is less than 3 as described later. (For example, about 2 medals) Therefore, when the RBB game ends, the number of medals will almost certainly decrease in calculation (in other words, the expected value of increasing medals in one RBB game is minus 1). That is, the RBB game is in a disadvantageous game state for the player, and about 30 games are played to exceed the payout number of 59, and as a result, when the RBB game ends, the average number of medals is 30. The number of sheets decreases.

In the general game state (RT0 state: replay winning probability is about 1 / 7.3 of the predetermined value), when the bonus combination (RBB) is internally won (condition device is activated) and becomes a carry-over state, at least after the next game. The winning probability of the replay fluctuates and becomes a high probability replay state (RT1 state: replay probability of about 1 / 1.8). When this bonus combination symbol is displayed (winning) and the RBB game due to the activation of the bonus combination ends (operation ends), the winning probability of the replay fluctuates and returns to the initial state (RT0 state). That is, the player plays the variable display game in any of the RT0 state, the RT1 state, and the RBB game state. It should be noted that this initial state (RT0 state: non-variable state of replay probability) is a transitional state (game preparation state) until the transition to the RT1 state, and the RT0 state in the actual game is a step value. It is only after the setting of is changed until the RBB is internally elected. When the setting is changed, the internally elected RBB flag 1 or RBB flag 2 is initialized and returns from 1 to 0. Similarly, since the internally won bonus combination is won at the same time as the small combination, there is almost no prize, and the player rarely plays the RBB game (see FIG. 72 (A)).

(2) Bonus combination 2 (RBB2: continuous operation device for accessory related to first-class special accessory): When BAR on the left drum 2a, watermelon on the middle drum 2b, and blue seven on the right drum 2c stop on the effective line. It is the role name of, the number of acquired cards is 0, and then the big bonus game 2 (RBB2 game) is given. There is only one type of combination symbol of the bonus combination, and even if the player wins the game independently, if the stop operation timing of the stop button unit 10 does not match, the above-mentioned predetermined bonus combination symbol will not stop on the valid line. Will be carried over to. Others are the same as the bonus combination 1, so the description will be omitted.

(3) Various bell roles: For example, the middle bell (FRU7) is a role name when the bell symbols are aligned on the effective line of each drum and stopped, and the number of acquired bells is 10. In addition, the upper bell of FRU2 (see FIG. 71 (B)) in which the bell symbol is displayed in a straight line in the upper row, the lower bell (FRU5) in which the bell symbol is displayed in a straight line in the lower row, and the bell symbol are displayed in a straight line downward to the right. The right-down bell of FRU1 (see FIG. 71 (C)), the upper right bell (FRU3) where the bell symbol is displayed in a straight line on the upper right, and the small mountain bell of FRU6 where the bell symbol is displayed like a mound (Fig. 72). (Refer to (D)), there is a FRU4 folding bell (see Fig. 72 (E)) that is displayed as if the bell design is broken (displayed in the lower, middle, and middle stages of the reel), and the number of acquired cards is 10 for each. .. While the winning areas of various bell roles in the RBB game overlap, only one small role is won in other areas, so the number of medals is reduced during the RBB.

(4) Rare small role & 1 small role: Middle cherry (strong cherry) with cherry pattern displayed in the middle of left drum 2a, weak cherry with cherry pattern displayed in upper or lower of left drum 2a, watermelon pattern There are strong watermelons displayed in the upper horizontal straight line, weak watermelons in which the watermelon pattern is displayed in a straight line downward to the right, and chance watermelons in which the watermelon pattern is displayed as if it was broken in a straight line downward to the right (displayed as if it was missed). The number of cards to be acquired is specified as one or two. One small role (for example, FRU11: Bell / Hanagami Bra / Red Seven / Nakashita Choi Replay) is designed to be won at the same time as RBB1 or RBB2, which hinders the winning of the bonus role.

(5) Multiple types of single-card combination: For example, when (Replay / Blue Seven) on the left drum 2a, (Nakagami Che) on the middle drum 2b, and (Blue Seven) on the right drum 2c are aligned on the effective line and stopped. One piece, 1 (FRU17) wins. The number of medals (game media) that can be obtained is one. This 1-card combination is a small combination for stop control, and there are a plurality of types of 1-card combination 1 to 1-card combination n (n is a natural number of 2 or more) as needed, but other 1-card combinations are also available. Since the design is different, the description is omitted. As an obstructive minor role during the second stop operation (correct answer for the first operation and incorrect answer for the second operation), FRU9 is used for the left drum 2a (replay), the middle drum 2b (replay / red seven), and the right drum 2c. There are multiple (bell / watermelon) etc.

(6) Multiple types of replay roles (replay roles): This is the name of the role when the replay symbols are aligned on the effective line for each drum. No medals are awarded for this, but the number of bets in the game is maintained. You can play the next game in the state. It is effective even if it is arranged continuously after the next game, and it is possible to continue playing without consuming coins until the game in which the replay is not established. The effect that medals are automatically inserted before the start of the game is performed, and the next game can be played by operating the start lever 9 of the player. When a normal replay is internally won by a random number lottery, the RP1 flag is set in the flag area and the replay symbol is always displayed. In appearance, the replay patterns are aligned horizontally in the center. Even if the operation symbol of the re-game combination is displayed, the re-game probability does not change. In addition, there is a right-down replay in which the replay symbol is displayed in a straight line.

In FIG. 72 (A), a general game (described as "general game" in the figure) starts from the next game in which the big bonus game (any RBB game) is completed. The replay probability (probability of winning the replay) in this general game is about 1 / 7.3 (number 8978/65536) (initial replay state: state in which the replay probability does not fluctuate). When the setting is changed, it is initialized, the RBB flag disappears, and the initial replay state is restored.

In a general game, when RBB, which is a bonus role, is internally elected and RBB wins in that game, the RBB game starts from the next game. The RBB game ends when the payout of medals exceeds a predetermined number of 59 medals, and the next game is in a normal replay state in which the probability of winning the replay combination is low. In addition, general game-> RBB wins internally-> RBB prize-> pays out more than 59 cards in RBB game-> end of RBB game-> rarely becomes a general game, and the player plays the game in the internal state of RBB described later (hereinafter, "internal"). "Medium game") will be repeated. A general game can be said to be a so-called "prepared state" until the transition to an internal medium game.

With reference to FIG. 72 (B), the number of places where RBB1 or RBB2 wins independently is 4, the winning probability is 1/164, and the total is 1/8192. Therefore, the probability that RBB1 or RBB2 will win. Is very low. However, if you do not aim for BAR, watermelon, and red seven (RBB2 is blue seven) at the timing of internal winning, you will not win a prize, and even if you win a prize, the game medals will only decrease, so it is for the player to win a prize. There is no merit.

The number of places where RBB1 and one small winning combination in the pushing order are won at the same time is 5500, and since the small winning combination priority control is performed, RBB1 cannot be won. The number of places where RBB2 and one small winning combination in the pushing order are simultaneously won is 500, and similarly, RBB2 cannot be won. Since the total number of RBB1s is 5504 and the total number of RBB2s is 504, RBB1 is about 11 times higher than RBB2 and has a higher winning probability, so that RBB1 is likely to be a game during internal winning. The winning flag of RBB1 or RBB2 is carried over until the RBB wins a prize, but the winning flag disappears when the step setting value of the payout rate is reset. However, as a variation, the winning flag of RBB1 disappears when the stage setting value is reset, but the winning flag of RBB2 may be maintained even if the stage setting value is reset. Further, an indicator indicating that the winning flag of RBB2 is set may be provided inside the game machine. For example, a full-color LED is provided in the main board, and the main control unit 100 turns off (or lights yellow) when it is in the ready state, lights red when RBB1 is internally elected, and lights blue when RBB2 is internally elected. Lighting control may be performed so as to be. This is because, as will be described later, the playability is increased when the RBB2 flag is set rather than when the RBB1 flag is set.

This RBB1 game is designed to end when the number of payouts (acquired number) exceeds 59, but the number of input is 3 and the expected value of the number of payouts per game is less than 3 as described later. (For example, about 2 medals) Therefore, when the RBB game ends, the number of medals will almost certainly decrease in calculation (in other words, the expected value of increasing medals in one RBB game is minus 1). That is, the RBB game is in a disadvantageous game state for the player, and about 30 games are played to exceed the payout number of 59, and as a result, when the RBB game ends, the average number of medals is 30. The number of sheets decreases.

On the other hand, even if the RBB wins internally in a general game, if the winning of the RBB is avoided, the bonus combination becomes a high-probability replay state (RT1) in which the bonus combination is internally won (inside the RBB) (see the shaded area in FIG. 72 (A)). ). Since there is no loss (unwinning) in this RT1 state as will be described later, the player can play the variable display game in a very advantageous game state. In the RT1 state, the number of lost parts may be set to about 1 to 10, and when the loss is pulled with a probability of 1/65536 to 10/65536, a freeze effect may be performed to add a large amount of assist functions. In this case, the loss acts as a freeze trigger or a freeze confirmation.

At the time of a general game (see FIG. 72 (B)), the total number of RBBs is 6008 (5500 + 500 + 4 + 4), and the winning probability is 6008/65536. The number of 6-choice push-order bell small combinations is 22000, respectively. In this case, any of the push-order bell combination 1 to the push-order bell combination 6 is internally won with a probability of about 1/3. However, basically, a plurality of different one-card small wins are simultaneously won for push order control and timing control. The number of rare small roles such as middle cherry and strong watermelon is 1000, and the number of replay roles is 8978. However, basically, a plurality of different replay roles are won at the same time, and replays corresponding to rare roles such as special replays are also included.

Since the RBB lottery is not performed inside any of the RBBs (see FIG. 72 (C)), the winning probability is 0. The inside of the RBB is a state in which the RBB flag is set and the RBB has already hit and carried over. Inside this RBB, there is a high probability replay state (RT state) in which the winning probability of the replay fluctuates. The lottery area of the number 4 where the RBB is independently won and the lottery area of the number 27550 which is not won as shown in FIG. 72 (B) are newly won areas for the replay. Therefore, 36536, which is the sum of the original replay number 8978 and the number 27558, is the number, the probability of winning the replay is 36536/65536 (about 1 / 1.8), and the number of unwinning is 0. That is, inside the RBB1 where there is no loss, the assist function is activated to notify the push order for winning the target small win (bell role with 10 medals) that constitutes the 6-choice push order small win. This allows the player to efficiently win medals. However, inside the RBB2, this 6-choice push order small winning combination cannot win the target small winning combination unless the operation order and the operation timing are correct. That is, in the game inside the RBB2, when one of the 6-choice push order small winning combination is won, the main control unit 100 is operated in the winning operation order, and the specific symbol sequence among the plurality of symbol sequences (for example, The first stop is the correct reel. If the correct operation order of the push order small winning combination is left middle right, it will be the left reel) is the winning operation timing, and when the stop switch is operated, the control to win the target small winning combination Do. On the other hand, if the specific symbol sequence is not operated at the winning operation timing (the left reel is operated near the red seven symbol of No. 4), the main control unit 100 controls so as not to win the target small winning combination as described later. To do. In addition, the number of areas 6000 in which any RBB and one small winning combination in the pushing order are simultaneously won is the winning area of the RBB and the small winning combination in the pushing order inside.

FIG. 73 is a combination table (simultaneous winning pattern of small wins) of the condition devices of the left push order small win (left first).

The push order small winning combination (pushing order bell small winning combination) means that the operation order of the stop button section 10 (pushing order of the stop button section 10) is 6 choices. In the case of, when winning one of the multiple types of one small winning combination that has been won at the same time, and one of the multiple Koboshi eyes (missing symbol of the bell small winning combination, 0 payout) It is a duplicate winning small role that may be displayed.

In the left push order bell 1, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the left stop button 10a, and the subsequent second stop operation that is the correct answer is the push order small combination of the middle stop button 10b. There are four types of left-push order bells 1 from left-push order bells 1-1 to left-push order bells 1-4, so the player takes the role of one by looking at the outcome of each reel (design stop type). The stop button unit 10 cannot be operated aiming at the design so as not to spill. The left push order bell 1 is a double push order type 6-choice push order small role, and the purpose is to prevent the winning of the first small role (right down bell role: FRU7) and the first small role for the purpose of winning a prize. A plurality of types of second small winning combinations (in this case, four types of one small winning combination (FRU17, FRU22, FRU27, FRU32)) and a first small winning combination that constitute the second small winning combination 3 small roles (FRU9: left drum (replay), middle drum (replay / red seven), right drum (bell / watermelon)) 4 types of symbol combinations Small wins that can be won on the display) are won at the same time (see left push order bell 1-1 in Fig. 73). The left push order bell 1-2 to left push order bell 1-4 have the same basic configuration, so they are explained. Is omitted.

In the left push order bell 2, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the left stop button 10a, and the subsequent second stop operation that is the correct answer is the push order small combination of the right stop button 10c. Since there are four types of left push order bells 2 from push order bells 2-1 to left push order bells 2-4, the player can make a roll (stop symbol) on each reel in the same way as the left push order bell 1. It is not possible to operate the stop button unit 10 aiming at the design so as not to miss the role of one reel. The first small winning combination for the purpose of winning a prize is FRU2, and the others are the same as the left push order bell 1, so the description is omitted. Since the basic configurations of the left push order bells 2 to 2 and the left push order bells 2-4 are the same, the description thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 74 is a combination table (simultaneous winning pattern of small wins) of the condition devices in the middle push order small win (middle first).

In the middle push order bell 3, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the middle stop button 10b, and the subsequent second stop operation of the correct answer is the push order small combination of the left stop button 10a. There are four types of middle push order bells 3 from middle push order bells 3-1 to middle push order bells 3-4, so the player should not miss one role by looking at the outcome (stop symbol) of each reel. , The stop button unit 10 cannot be operated aiming at the symbol. The middle push order bell 3 is a double push order type push order small role, and the first small role (middle bell role: FRU4) for the purpose of winning a prize, and the second small role for the purpose of hindering the winning of the first small role. Multiple types of second small winning combination (in this case, four types of one small winning combination) and a third small winning combination (FRU10) for the purpose of hindering the winning of the first small winning combination are simultaneously elected (Fig.). See push order bell 3-1 of 74). Since the basic configurations of the middle push order bells 3 to 2 and the middle push order bells 3-4 are the same, the description thereof will be omitted.

In the middle push order bell 4, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the middle stop button 10b, and the subsequent second stop operation of the correct answer is the push order small combination of the right stop button 10c. There are four types of middle-push order bells 4 from middle-push order bells 4-1 to middle-push order bells 4-4. It is not possible to operate the stop button unit 10 aiming at the symbol so as not to miss the reel. The first small winning combination for the purpose of winning a prize is FRU3, and the others are the same as the middle push order bell 3, so the description is omitted. Since the basic configurations of the middle push order bells 4-2 and the middle push order bells 4-4 are the same, the description thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 75 is a combination table (simultaneous winning pattern of small wins) of the condition devices in the right push order small win (right first).

In the right push order bell 5, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the right stop button 10c, and the subsequent second stop operation that is the correct answer is the push order small combination of the left stop button 10a. Since there are four types of right-pushing order bells 5 from right-pushing order bells 5-1 to right-pushing order bells 5-4, the player misses one role by looking at the outcome (stop symbol) of each reel. The stop button unit 10 cannot be operated aiming at the symbol so as not to be present. The right push order bell 3 is a double push order type push order small winning combination, and the first small winning combination (lower bell: FRU5) for the purpose of winning a prize, and the second small winning combination for the purpose of hindering the winning of the first small winning combination. Multiple types of second small winning combination (in this case, four types of one small winning combination) and a third small winning combination (FRU11) for the purpose of hindering the winning of the first small winning combination are simultaneously elected (Fig.). See push order bell 5-1 of 75). Since the basic configurations of the right push order bells 5-2 to right push order bells 5-4 are the same, the description thereof will be omitted.

In the right push order bell 6, the first stop operation that is the correct answer is the right stop button 10c, and the subsequent second stop operation that is the correct answer is the push order small combination of the middle stop button 10b. There are four types of middle-push order bells 6 from right-push order bells 4-1 to right-push order bells 4-4. It is not possible to operate the stop button unit 10 aiming at the design so as not to miss the role of one piece. The first small winning combination for the purpose of winning a prize is FRU6, and the others are the same as the right-pushing order bell 5, so the description thereof will be omitted. Since the basic configurations of the right push order bell 6-2 to the right push order bell 6-4 are the same, the description thereof will be omitted.

76 and 77 are schematic views showing the symbol display state of the window portion in chronological order.

In the rotating body type game machine, there is a method of stopping the reel aiming at a specific pattern for the purpose of winning almost all the small wins that are internally won. As this specific pattern, many models use the black and conspicuous BAR pattern (DDT point) of the left drum 2a, and this method of striking is called the DDT striking method derived from an insecticide. A cherry symbol is placed under the BAR symbol, and when the cherry role is not won, the BAR symbol stops at the bottom (BAR drop). When the cherry role is won, the cherry pattern can stop at the middle or corner to win the cherry role. On the other hand, when the watermelon role is won, the BAR symbol slides one frame from the lower row and the watermelon symbol stops at the upper row, so the player then stops by aiming at the watermelon symbol on the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c. To do.

Skilled players play slot games using the DDT method, so even though the watermelon role has not been won, it feels strange that the watermelon pattern stops on the left drum 2a. It is an invention of a push order small role to solve. Another object of the present invention is to provide a game machine capable of intentionally changing or adjusting the payout wave by changing the stop control depending on whether the bonus combination 1 or the bonus combination 2 is internally won. It is an invention.

For example, when the main control unit 100 internally wins the left push order bell 1-1 shown in FIG. 73 by random number lottery, the condition devices of FRU1 + FRU9 + FRU17, FRU22, FRU27, and FRU32 are simultaneously operated (six types). Different small wins are won at the same time), and based on the operation order information (123), it is determined that the operation order of left → middle → right is the winning operation order. However, the operation order information may be 0 for left middle right, 1 for left and right middle, 2 for middle left and right, 3 for middle right left, 4 for right left middle, and 5 for right middle left.

In the state of FIG. 76A, the main control unit 100 executes the stop calculation process based on the winning combination, the stop control table, and the score information, and the player operates the stop button unit 10 at any time and at any time. Create a sliding frame number table so that stop control can be performed immediately. Further, the sliding frame number table is similarly created after the first stop operation and after the second stop operation. When the symbol number to be stopped (for example, the 12th symbol and the 17th symbol as the replay symbol) is stored on the effective line as the operation timing information, for example, when the 12th symbol is actually stopped, the main control unit It is determined that 100 is operated at the correct timing.

The left push order bell 1-1 includes a left push order bell 1-1a and a left push order bell 1-1b, and the winning areas by random number lottery are different. That is, half of the winning area of the left push order bell 1-1 is won by the left push order bell 1-1a, while the other half is won by the left push order bell 1-1b. The left push order bell 1-1a has the correct operation order in the left middle right, and the correct answer operation timing (correct answer stop symbol information) is the 12th symbol and the 17th symbol, while the left push order bell 1-1b is the correct answer operation. The order is left, middle, and right, and the correct answer operation timing (correct answer stop symbol information) is the 2nd symbol and the 7th symbol.

FIG. 76 (A) shows a state in which all the drum portions 2 are rotated from top to bottom, and it is assumed that the left push order bell 1-1a is won in the RT1 state in which the RBB1 is internally won. In the RT1 state inside the RBB1, if the push order bell 1 to the push order bell 6 are won, only the stop button 10 is operated in the correct operation order, the bell small win (target small win) wins, and a miss occurs. It's difficult to do, so the base goes up (for example, 50 games / thousand yen).

In this state, when the player first stops the left stop button 10a in the notified correct operation order by aiming at the BAR symbol by the DDT striking method (see FIG. 76 (A)), the main control unit 100: Refer to the sliding frame number table, and based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, stop the middle drum 2b in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and control to draw the replay symbol of the right-down bell role to the effective line. (The drum portion 2 is simply moved by the number of sliding frames, and in FIG. 76B, four frames are slipped). In the state of FIG. 76B, the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c may be operated. When the player second-stops the middle stop button 10b in the correct operation order, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, 0 to 4 frames. The middle drum 2b is stopped within the range of, and control is performed to draw the bell symbol into the effective line (see FIG. 76 (C)). In the state of FIG. 76 (C), only FRU1 is tempered. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the right stop button 10c may be operated, and when the right stop button 10c in the correct operation order is operated for the third stop, the main control unit 100 The control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 frames to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, pulls the replay symbol into the effective line, performs control, and right. The role of the down bell is won (see FIG. 76 (D)).

Since FIGS. 77 (A) and 77 (B) are in the same state as those in FIGS. 76 (A) and 76 (B), the description thereof will be omitted.

In the state of FIG. 77 (B), the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c may be operated. When the player second-stops the right stop button 10c in the incorrect answer operation order, the main control unit 100 refers to the slip frame number table because it is the incorrect answer operation order, and is based on the corresponding slip frame number data. , The middle drum 2b is stopped in the range of 0 to 4 frames, and control is performed for drawing, for example, a bell symbol or a watermelon symbol into the effective line (see FIG. 77 (C)). In the state of FIG. 77 (C), the FRU9 is tempered. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the middle stop button 10b may be operated, and when the middle stop button 10b in the correct operation order is operated for the third stop, the main control unit 100 The control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, and pulls the replay symbol or the red seven symbol into the effective line for control. (In this case, do not miss the FRU9, which is a small role of inhibition. See FIG. 77 (D)). When the first stop operation is an incorrect answer operation and either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c is operated, the main control unit 100 stops the corresponding reels, and FRU17, FRU22, FRU27, Any one of the FRU32 symbols is displayed on the effective line. For example, if the BAR symbol stops on the effective line of the middle drum 2b and the subsequent operation timing is correct, the FRU 32 wins and one is paid out. On the other hand, if the subsequent operation timing is incorrect, the missed symbol will be displayed and the payout will be 0.

FIG. 78 is a schematic view showing the pattern display state of the window portion in chronological order.

FIG. 78 (A) shows a state in which all the drum portions 2 are rotated from top to bottom. The RBB1 described with reference to FIGS. 76 and 77 is not an internal winning, but an RBB2 is an internally winning RT1 state (however, an RT1b state in which the type of replay is different). If any of the bells 1 to the push order bell 6 is won, the bell small winning combination (target small winning combination) is performed when the stop button 10 of the first operation is operated in the correct operation order and the first stop operation timing is the correct answer. Since it is possible to win a prize and it is easy to miss it, the base is lowered (for example, 30 games / 1,000 yen).

Assuming that the left push order bell 1-1a is won in the RT1 state inside the RBB2, the main control unit 100 determines that the left push order bell 1-1a is won in the assist game in the RT1 state in which the RBB2 is internally won. Since the correct answer operation order is left, middle, and right, and the correct answer operation timing (correct answer stop symbol information) is the 12th symbol or the 17th symbol, it is notified that the timing of the first stop operation is the BAR symbol (for example, voice). And the video, the LED display tells you to aim at the left, BAR). In this state, the player operates the left stop button 10a in the correct operation order notified, but due to a mistake in pressing the button, the operation timing is No. When the first stop operation is performed aiming at the red seven symbol of No. 4 (see FIG. 78 (A)), the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, and based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, 0 frames to The middle drum 2b is stopped within a range of 4 frames, and control is performed to draw the replay symbol of the right-down bell role into the effective line. The drum portion 2 is simply moved by the number of sliding frames, and in FIG. 78 (B), four frames are slipped, and No. The replay symbol of 2 is stopped on the effective line.

In the state of FIG. 78 (B), the main control unit 100 creates a sliding frame number table after the first stop operation so that either the middle stop button 10b or the right stop button 10c may be operated. , Since the replay symbol stopped on the effective line is the second symbol and not the 12th symbol or the 17th symbol of the correct answer symbol to be memorized, it is determined that the operation timing is incorrect. As a result, when the main control unit 100 creates the sliding frame number table after the first stop operation, even if the middle stop button 10b in the correct answer operation order is used, the same as the right stop button 10c in the incorrect answer operation order. Data is created so as to draw in the design of FRU9, which is a small inhibitory role. When the player second-stops the middle stop button 10b in the correct operation order, the main control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table and is in the range of 0 to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data. The middle drum 2b is stopped at, and control is performed to draw the replay symbol into the effective line (see FIG. 78 (C)). In the state of FIG. 78 (C), only FRU9 is tempered. The main control unit 100 creates a slip frame number table after the second stop operation so that the right stop button 10c may be operated, and when the right stop button 10c in the correct operation order is operated for the third stop, the main control unit 100 The control unit 100 refers to the sliding frame number table, stops the right drum 2c in the range of 0 frames to 4 frames based on the corresponding sliding frame number data, pulls the bell symbol into the effective line, and controls it. The FRU9 is awarded (see FIG. 78 (D)).

When the second stop operation is the right stop button 10c in the incorrect answer operation order, the bell symbol of FRU9 is similarly stopped at the effective line to enter the tempai state, and the FRU9 is won by the third stop operation (FIG. 77 (C). ) And the description of FIG. 77 (D)). On the other hand, when the replay symbol stopped on the effective line is the 12th symbol (see the explanations in FIGS. 76 (B) to 76 (D)), it matches the 12th symbol or the 17th symbol of the correct answer symbol to be memorized. Since (included), it is judged that the operation timing is correct. Therefore, when the middle stop button 10b is subsequently operated, the target small winning combination FRU1 is tempted, while when the right stop button 10c is operated, the blocking small winning combination FRU9 is operated. To tempai. The following is the same as in FIGS. 76 and 77, and the detailed description thereof will be incorporated.

The middle push order small win and the right push order small win are the same as the left push order small win, and in the RT1 state inside the RBB1, only the stop button part 10 is operated in the correct operation order, and the target small win wins. However, in the RT1 state inside RBB2, when the first stop operation is the correct answer and the stop symbol displayed on the valid line of the symbol sequence stopped by that operation matches at least one of the memorized correct answer symbols. After that, when the stop switch is operated in the winning operation order, the main control unit 100 controls to win the target small winning combination, but when the stop symbol is not included in the correct answer symbol, the stop switch is subsequently performed. Even if is operated, the first stop operation is incorrect, so the main control unit 100 controls so that the target small winning combination is not won. The notification means is to notify "Aim at the middle, red seven" or "Aim at the right, blue seven" by voice, video, and LED display.

79 to 80 are schematic views of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device.

The main control unit 100 controls not only the winning combination lottery but also the ball ejection performance (assist function of advantageous game). On the other hand, the sub control unit 160 receives information related to the assist function (assist information) such as the winning combination lottery result information and the operation order from the main control unit 100, and performs an appropriate effect based on the information.

When the start lever 9 is operated and the pseudo BB is started, the sub control unit 160 displays the pseudo BB start screen (see FIG. 79 (A)). The main control unit 100 terminates the pseudo BB when the small winning combination of 14-payout bells (including the bells in any order such as strong bells and the left 1st bell) is internally elected 15 times. The role of Shun Bell is internally elected, and even if it is missed, it will be managed as one time. On the other hand, the sub-control unit 160 stores numerical data of 210 sheets as pseudo BB end number data corresponding to the winning of the small bell 15 times. Similarly, the pseudo RB ends when the small role of Bell is internally elected five times, and stores numerical data of 70 sheets as the pseudo RB end number data. The display 000/210 of the BB start screen is the pseudo BB end number data whose left side is the payout number and the right side is the end condition, and the total display is the difference number (increase number). This difference number is a numerical value obtained by subtracting the input game media and adding the acquired game media, and is displayed while updating. Further, when the additional lottery in the pseudo BB is won, the additional winning amount may be added to the basic number of 15 times. For example, if 5 times are won in the additional lottery, the pseudo BB ends when 20 times are won, and the sub-control unit 160 additionally displays 210 pieces of the denominator as 280 pieces (5 × 14 pieces).

In the sub control unit 160, when the push order bell 2-1 is internally elected and the combination lottery result information (push order small combination) and assist information (middle → right → left) are received from the main control unit 100, the bell small combination (middle → right → left) The pressing order of the stop button portion 10 required to win the FUR1) is indicated by a yellow circle (suggested by a small bell) and numbers 1 to 3. In this case, the number 1 meaning the first stop operation is displayed in a large yellow circle, and the voice of the main character such as Dracula or a princess pronounces "Naka" (see FIG. 79 (B)). However, if the operation is mistakenly displayed, it will shift to RT1, so in that case, when the push order replay is won in order to shift to RT2 or RT3 again, the player will see the same display and voice. It is designed to assist. If the sub control unit 160 stores the push order information of middle → right → left corresponding to the push order bell 2-1, the main control unit 100 does not need to send the operation order information.

When the player correctly operates the middle stop button 10b, the sub-control unit 160 bursts and erases the large yellow circle in the center, and expands and displays the number 2 meaning the second stop operation to the large yellow circle. (See FIG. 79 (C)).

When the player correctly operates the right stop button 10c, the sub-control unit 160 bursts and erases the large yellow circle on the right side, and expands and displays the number 3, which means the third stop operation, to the large yellow circle. (See FIG. 80 (A)). Then, when the player finally operates the left stop button 10a, the sub-control unit 160 bursts and erases the large yellow circle on the left side, and displays "GET" in the center of the screen (FIG. 80 (B)). (See), the number of payouts 14 is sequentially added to 000 to change to 014, and the number of payouts 14 is added to Total "0" to change to 14 (see FIG. 80 (C)). Therefore, the value at the end of the difference number is 4. When the numbers are added in order, the display mode is 000 → 001 → 002 → 003 ... → 013 → 014, and in Total, 0 → 1 → 2 → 3 ... → 13 → 14. On the other hand, if the push order bell combination is internally won and missed, one game ends in a jump display mode such as 000 → 014 instead of the display mode in which the numbers are added in order. When the max bet button is operated and the start lever is operated from the state of FIG. 80 (C), the number of inserted game media 3 is subtracted, so that the difference number is displayed while being updated to 11.

FIG. 81 is a schematic view of an effect screen displayed by the display effect device.

The main control unit 100 remembers the number of times the bell small role has been won since the start of the pseudo BB, and in the game in which the number of times the bell small role has been won is the 13th time, the right → middle → left push order small role 4-1 Shows the state of internal winning (see FIG. 81 (A)).

When the stop button unit 10 is operated in the order of pressing right → middle → left, the main control unit 100 wins a small bell and pays out 14 game media (see FIG. 81 (B)), and pseudo BB. It is determined whether or not the end condition of (the number of times the small winning combination of bells has been won 15 times) is satisfied, but it is not established (see FIG. 81 (C)). The sub-control unit 160 displays that the total number of 196/210 sheets and the increased number of sheets is 167. Therefore, the value at the end of the difference number is 7. When the value at the end of the difference number is a specific value (for example, 3 or 7), the main control unit 100 improves the probability of winning in the additional lottery. That is, the probability of winning in the additional lottery is improved as compared with the case where the value at the end of the difference number is a non-specific value (for example, a value other than 0 to 2, 4 to 6, 8, 9: 3 or 7). Specifically, when the rare small winning combination is won in the winning combination lottery, the main control unit 100 sets the winning probability of the additional lottery to 10% when the value at the end of the difference number is a non-specific value, while the difference number. When the value at the end of is a specific value, the winning probability of the additional lottery is 30% (10% x 3). Then, the main control unit 100 controls the pseudo BB (advantageous game) so that it can be extended based on the winning result of the additional lottery. For example, if 10 times are won in the additional lottery, the main control unit 100 ends when the pseudo BB is won 25 times, and the sub control unit 160 changes 210 denominators to 350 (10 x 14). Addition display. In particular, in the state of FIG. 81 (B) (the state where the value at the end of the difference number is a specific value), when a normal replay or a special replay of a rare role is drawn, a high probability additional lottery is received once. Further, since it is a replay role, three sheets are added to the difference number from the state of FIG. 81 (C) to return to the state of FIG. 81 (B) (the value at the end of the difference number is a specific value 7), and the probability is high. It is very advantageous because you can take the additional lottery again.

FIG. 82 is a conceptual diagram of the suggestion effect.

The end condition of this one pseudo BB (advantageous game) is that either a maximum of 1500 games is continued or a maximum of 2400 cards is increased (that is, a net increase is achieved) from the start to the end. .. The main control unit 100 is a symbol variation game in which a plurality of symbol sequences on which a plurality of symbols are drawn are varied, and a winning combination lottery is performed according to set values (1 to 6) to correspond to the plurality of symbol sequences. By operating the provided stop switch, the fluctuating symbol sequence is stopped individually, multiple symbols are displayed on the display window, and when the instruction function is activated during the advantageous game, the operation order and operation timing of the stop switch are changed. It is possible to notify.

Based on the result of the combination lottery (rare roles such as cherry, watermelon, chance eye, etc.), the main control unit 100 performs an additional lottery (number of games, number of payouts, net increase number) to extend the advantageous game. The main control unit 100 determines whether or not the advantageous game continues to the extension limit based on the result of the additional lottery. For example, when the number of digested games is 1200 and the number of remaining games is 250, if the number of additional games is 50, the game continues to the extension limit of 1500 games. If the number of additional games is 80, the extension limit of 1500 games will be exceeded, but the remaining 30 games will be discarded and continue to the extension limit. Depending on the result of the additional lottery, it may be judged by the logic each time whether or not the advantageous game continues to the extension limit, but if it is 1, it is judged that the extension limit flag is set. You may try to do it.

When it is determined that the profitable game continues to the extension limit, the main control unit 100 continues the additional lottery based on the result of the winning combination lottery, but even if the additional lottery is won, the advantageous game is extended. Since it is known that the game will continue to the limit, no additional addition will be made, so the advantageous game will not be extended any further, and an effect suggesting a set value will be performed according to the winning result. For example, by displaying "<3" on the display LED block 4, it is suggested that it is between "4 and 6". By repeatedly lighting "2", "4", and "6" in sequence, it is suggested that the values are even numbers. On the other hand, the main control unit 100 may transmit the extension limit information and the additional lottery result information to the sub control unit 160 so that the sub control unit 160 independently produces the effect.

Example: Probability of adding the number of main AT games when winning AT medium-strength cherry (setting 6)
Before the limit Strong cherry: 100G: 10%, 10G: 90%, 0G: 10%
Reaching the limit (without adding) Strong cherry: 100G: 10% → Setting 4, 5 and 6 also produce production, 10G: 90% → Setting 2 or more also produce production, 0G: 10% → Setting suggestion production does not occur Limit reached (state not added) State not to add: After setting 4, 5 and 6 are also produced)
Strong cherry: 100G: 10% → Settings 5 and 6 also produce effects, 10G: 90% → Settings 2 and above also produce effects, 0G: 10% → No setting suggestion effects occur Figure 84 is a drum design layout, etc. ..

FIG. 84 (A) is the same as that of FIG. 48, and the left drum 2a (first drum), the middle drum 2b (second drum), and the right drum 2c (third drum) are each of the left drum. A rotating drum band (not shown) on which a design, a middle drum design, and a right drum design are drawn is attached so as to go around the outer peripheral portion of each drum.

FIG. 84 (B) is a normal dividend table. FIG. 84C is a symbol combination display determination diagram, and similarly to FIG. 49A, the main control unit 100 responds to the number of game medals inserted when all three drum units 2 are stopped. On the effective line of the window portion 3 (in this case, only the central horizontal line), the combination display determination of the symbols related to the winning and the operation is performed. That is, in all games, three cards are always inserted, and the effective line is the first line. However, in all games (normal games, assist games, bonus games, etc.), the prescribed number is assumed to be three.

(1) Middle bell: When the left drum 2a (bell), the middle drum 2b (bell), and the right drum 2c (bell) are aligned on the effective line and stopped, the bell symbol is displayed in a straight line in the center, and the middle bell is displayed. Will win a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be nine. In the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c, the bell symbols are arranged at intervals of 4 frames, so if the middle bell is won, the prize will always be won regardless of the timing of the stop operation of all reels. Yes (complete winning small role). The game medium does not have to be an actual object such as a medal or a pachinko ball, and since a medalless game machine does not use any medal or the like, it may be game data such as game points (game points) or credits. Therefore, the game medium used in the claims does not have to be an actual object such as a medal, and game points (game points), credits, and electronic data are also sufficient.

(2) Middle watermelon: When the left drum 2a (yellow watermelon / red watermelon), the middle drum 2b (yellow watermelon / red watermelon), and the right drum 2c (red watermelon) stop on the effective line, they are aligned in the center. The watermelon pattern is displayed, and the middle watermelon wins a prize. The number of medals (game media) acquired will be three. In the left drum 2a and the right drum 2c, the yellow watermelon / red watermelon symbols are arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less, but in the middle drum 2b, the yellow watermelon / red watermelon symbols are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or more. There is. When the middle watermelon is won and the 15th blank symbol to the 19th cherry symbol are on the effective line, even if the rotating middle drum 2b (specific reel) is stopped, only 4 frames can slide. Since it is not possible to stop the yellow watermelon / red watermelon, the middle watermelon will be missed (timing required small role).

(3) Middle cherry: When (cherry) is stopped on the left drum 2a and (ANY) is stopped on the middle drum 2b and right drum 2c, the middle cherry wins a prize. The number of medals (game media) that can be obtained is one. In the left drum 2a, there are places where cherry symbols are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or more. When the middle cherry is won and the 1st bell symbol to the 7th yellow watermelon symbol and the 18th lip 3 symbol to the 20th lip 2 symbol are on the effective line, the rotating left drum 2a (specific) Even if the reel) is stopped, only 4 frames can be slid and the cherry cannot be stopped, so the middle cherry will be missed (timing required small role).

(4) Strongest cherry: When (cherry) on the left drum 2a, (cherry) on the middle drum 2b, and (cherry) on the right drum 2c stop on the effective line, the strongest cherry wins. The number of medals (game media) that can be obtained is one. In the left drum 2a, there are places where cherry symbols are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or more. When the strongest cherry is won and the 1st bell symbol to the 7th yellow watermelon symbol and the 18th lip 3 symbol to the 20th lip 2 symbol are on the effective line, the rotating left drum 2a (specific) Even if the reel) is stopped, only 4 frames can be slid and the cherry cannot be stopped.

For the middle drum 2b, even if the rotating middle drum 2b (specific reel) is stopped when the strongest cherry is won and the 4th white BAR symbol to the 7th lip 3 symbol are on the effective line. Only 4 frames can be slipped and the cherry cannot be stopped. On the right drum 2c, even if the rotating right drum 2c (specific reel) is stopped when the strongest cherry is won and the 4th white BAR symbol to the 13th yellow watermelon symbol are on the effective line. Only 4 frames can be slipped and the cherry cannot be stopped. If the strongest cherry is won, all of the left drum 2a, middle drum 2b, and right drum 2c will be specific reels that may be missed (timing required small role). There are several other types of small wins, but they can be classified as either complete winning small wins or timing-required small wins, so the description of other examples will be used.

The DDT point is the No. 10 red seven symbol on the left drum 2a, and since there are cherry symbols and yellow watermelon / red watermelon symbols above and below this, the player aims at the area around the DDT point on the left drum 2a with the first stop operation. It will be.

FIG. 85 is a diagram schematically showing an opposite field.

The operation when the press switch is turned on by performing a continuous operation called "opposite field" on the stop button of the slot machine will be described. The player performs a pouring operation from left to right to sequentially turn on the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, and the right stop button 10c. Opposite field is a method of hitting only the left reel and quickly touching the middle reel, the right reel and the stop operation button to stop.

This button operation is started by aiming at the vicinity of the DDT point of the left drum 2a in the first stop operation and touching the player's finger with the left stop button 10a. Then, when the left stop button 10a is pressed and the finger is moved to the right in that state, the middle stop button 10b and the right stop button 10c can be quickly operated while keeping the pressed state. Advanced pachislot players can digest about 800 games per hour by performing this opposite field.

When the main control unit 100 receives an operation of the start lever 9 after inserting a predetermined number of game medals necessary for playing a game, the main control unit 100 rotates the drum unit 2 all at once and has a plurality of types including a small combination and a replay combination. Determine the suitability of the role of. In addition, the main control unit 100 can determine the type of the determined small winning combination.

When any of the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, or the right stop button 10c is operated while the drum unit 2 is rotating, the main control unit 100 controls to individually stop the corresponding rotating reels. Do. Further, it is determined that the winning combination has been won based on the fact that the symbol combination indicating the winning form predetermined for each small winning combination or replay winning combination is displayed on the effective line with all the drum portions 2 stopped. When the winning winning combination is a small winning combination, the number of game media to be granted is determined based on the above-mentioned small winning combination payout (for example, in the case of a middle bell, the payout is 9).

The drum portion 2 is composed of at least the left drum 2a arranged on the leftmost side, the middle drum 2b arranged right beside the left reel, and the right drum 2c arranged on the rightmost side. In the case of four or more reels, the fourth and subsequent reels are arranged between the middle drum 2b and the right drum 2c.

For a small role, when the stop operation is performed in the order from the left drum 2a, the middle drum 2b, and the right drum 2c by pouring, the timing of the full stop operation of the left stop button 10a, the middle stop button 10b, and the right stop button 10c. Regardless of the timing of the middle bell (complete winning small role) that always wins, and the timing of the stop operation of the middle stop button 10b of the middle drum 2b after the stop operation of the left drum 2a, the prize may or may not be won. There is a middle watermelon (small timing required).

When the main control unit 100 determines the winning of any of the small winning combinations, the main control unit 100 determines the type of the winning small winning combination. When the determination result is the middle bell (complete winning small winning combination), the main control unit 100 stops the left reel when the left drum 2a is stopped by the left stop button 10a while all reels are rotating. Perform control processing to make it. For example, since the control process for stopping the 16th bell symbol on the effective line is performed, the reel is not completely stopped. The main control unit 100 is the remaining reel that is rotating at the first timing after that (as a result of conducting a pouring experiment, it is found that about 0 ms to 50 ms is optimal, and 20 ms is adopted in the actual machine). The operation lamps of the middle stop button 10b and the right stop button 10c are turned on from red to white by enabling the stop operation of.

On the other hand, the main control unit 100 performs a control process to stop the left reel when the determination result is the middle stage watermelon (timing required small winning combination). For example, since the control process for stopping the No. 7 yellow watermelon symbol on the effective line is performed, the reel is not completely stopped. The main control unit 100 has found that about 100 ms to 300 ms is optimal for the second timing (results of a pouring experiment) that is later than the first timing (20 ms in the actual machine), and 200 ms is adopted in the actual machine. ) Allows the operation of stopping the remaining reels during rotation, and lights the operation lamps of the middle stop button 10b and the right stop button 10 from red to white. That is, in consideration of the pouring operation, when the middle bell (complete winning small role) is not missed, it can be operated after 20 ms, but there is a possibility that it will be missed (there may be a prize or no prize). When the watermelon is in the middle stage, it can be operated 200 ms later (second timing) than the first timing. As a result, it is possible to play with a pouring operation and win a prize quickly when the middle bell is won, but when the middle watermelon is won, the middle stop button 10b and the right stop button 10c can be operated only after 200 ms. Since it cannot be pressed by pouring, the probability of dropping it can be extremely reduced. The same applies to right-handed pouring.

Other Example 1:
For a small role, when the right drum 2c, the middle drum 2b, and the left drum 2a are stopped in this order by right-handed pouring, the right stop button 10c, the middle stop button 10b, and the left stop button 10a are all stopped. Depending on the timing of the middle bell (complete winning small role) that always wins regardless of the timing, and the stop operation of the left stop button 10a after the stop operation of the right drum 2c to the middle drum 2b, there are times when the prize is won and times when the prize is not won. There is a middle-tier cherry (small timing required).

When the main control unit 100 determines the winning of any of the small winning combinations, the main control unit 100 determines the type of the winning small winning combination. When the determination result is the middle bell (complete winning small winning combination), the main control unit 100 stops the right reel when the right stop button 10c stops the right drum 2c while all reels are rotating. Perform control processing to make it. For example, since the control process for stopping the 10th bell symbol on the effective line is performed, the reel is not completely stopped. At the first timing (20 ms) thereafter, the main control unit 100 enables the stop operation of the remaining reels during rotation, and lights the operation lamps of the middle stop button 10b and the left stop button 10a from red to white.

The main control unit 100 performs a control process for stopping the right reel when the result of the determination is the middle-stage cherry (small timing required). For example, since the control process for stopping the 17th red seven symbol on the effective line is performed, the reel is not completely stopped. The main control unit 100 enables the stop operation of the remaining reels during rotation at the second timing (200), which is later than the first timing (20 ms), and turns the operation lamps of the middle stop button 10b and the left stop button 10 red. Lights up in white. That is, in consideration of the pouring operation, when the middle bell (complete winning small role) is not missed, it can be operated after 20 ms, but there is a possibility that it will be missed (there may be a prize or no prize). When it is a middle-stage cherry, it can be operated 200 ms later (second timing) than the first timing. As a result, it is possible to play with a right-handed opposite field and quickly win a prize when the middle bell is won, while when the middle cherry is won, the middle stop button 10b and the left stop button 10a can be operated only after 200 ms. Therefore, since it is in a state where it cannot be pushed by right-handed pouring, the probability of missing it can be extremely reduced.

Other Example 2:
When the main control unit 100 determines the winning of any of the small winning combinations, the main control unit 100 determines the type of the winning small winning combination. When the determination result is the middle bell (complete winning small winning combination), the main control unit 100 stops the left reel when the left drum 2a is stopped by the left stop button 10a while all reels are rotating. Perform control processing to make it. For example, since the control process for stopping the 16th bell symbol on the effective line is performed, the reel is not completely stopped. At the first timing (20 ms) thereafter, the main control unit 100 enables the stop operation of the remaining reels during rotation, and lights the operation lamps of the middle stop button 10b and the right stop button 10c from red to white.

On the other hand, the main control unit 100 performs a control process to stop the left reel when the determination result is the strongest cherry (timing required small winning combination). For example, since the control process for stopping the No. 8 cherry symbol on the effective line is performed, the reel is not completely stopped. The main control unit 100 enables a stop operation of the remaining reels during rotation at a second timing (200 ms) later than the first timing (20 ms), and turns the operation lamps of the middle stop button 10b and the right stop button 10 red. Lights up in white. Since the right stop button 10c can be operated only after 200 ms, it cannot be pressed by the opposite field. When the player finds that the cherry pattern is stopped in the middle row, he believes in the possibility of the strongest cherry and operates the middle stop button 10b aiming at the vicinity of the 14th black BAR. The main control unit 100 performs a control process to stop the No. 8 cherry symbol on the effective line, and stops the rotating right drum 2c at the second timing (200 ms) later than the first timing (20 ms). It is possible to turn on the operation lamp of the right stop button 10 from red to white. When I found that two cherry symbols were stopped in the middle row, I believed in the possibility of the strongest cherry, and when I operated the middle stop button 10b aiming at the vicinity of the 17th red seven, the 14th cherry was on the effective line. The strongest cherry is won by performing a control process to stop the symbol.

Other Example 3:
When the result of the determination is the strongest cherry (timing required small role), when the player happens to be unable to stop the cherry symbol without performing the DDT operation, for example, the main control unit 100 is on the effective line. The control process to stop the 4th white BAR symbol is performed, and the right stop button 10 is enabled to stop the rotating right drum 2c at the second timing (200 ms) later than the first timing (20 ms). The operation lamp of No. 3 is turned on from red to white (Example 3a). That is, it is the same as above.

On the other hand, when the result of the determination is the strongest cherry (timing required small role), when the player happens to be unable to stop the cherry symbol without performing the DDT operation, the main control unit 100 sets the effective line. The control process to stop the 4th white BAR symbol is performed on the top, and the timing is earlier than the 2nd timing (about 0ms to 50ms. The 1st timing (20ms) may be used) as in the middle bell (complete winning small role). Then, the right drum 2c during rotation can be stopped, and the operation lamp of the right stop button 10 is turned on from red to white (Example 3a). That is, since the cherry symbol is missed in the first stop operation (there is no possibility of winning a prize) and there is no need to delay the operation, the main control unit 100 enables the pouring operation (Example 3b).
