On each reel 110-112, a plurality of types (9 types in the present embodiment) of symbols shown on the right side of the figure are arranged in a predetermined number of frames (20 frames of numbers 0 to 19 in the present embodiment). Further, the numbers 0 to 20 shown at the left end of the figure are numbers indicating the arrangement positions of the symbols on the reels 110 to 112. For example, in the present embodiment, the number 0 frame on the left reel 110 is a "bell symbol", the number 1 frame on the middle reel 111 is a "watermelon symbol", and the number 0 frame on the right reel 112 is a "replay symbol". ,, Are arranged respectively.

<Types of winning roles>
Next, the types of winning combinations of the slot machine 100 will be described with reference to FIG. It should be noted that the figure shows the types of winning combinations (including operating combinations), the symbol combinations corresponding to each winning combination, and the payout of each winning combination.

The winning combinations of the slot machine 100 include special roles (special roles 1 to 3) and general roles (replaying roles 1 to 4 and small roles 1 to 4). The types of winning combinations are not limited to these combinations, and can be arbitrarily adopted.

Among the winning combinations in the present embodiment, the special roles 1 to 3 are roles for shifting to a special gaming state (hereinafter, this state may be referred to as RT5) in which a predetermined profit is given to the player. In addition, the re-gaming combination 1 to the re-gaming combination 4 are roles that enable re-gaming without inserting a new medal. These winning combinations are sometimes referred to as "acting combinations". In addition, the "winning" in the present embodiment includes the case where the symbol combination of the operating combination without the distribution of medals (without the payout of medals) is displayed on the effective line. For example, the special combination 1 to 1 3 and winning of the replaying roles 1 to 4 are included.

The special role (special roles 1 to 3) is a role (operating role) that shifts to the special gaming state (RT5) by winning a prize. However, no medals will be paid out for winning the role itself. Corresponding symbol combinations are "7 symbol-7 symbol-7 symbol" for special role 1 (also called big bonus), "princess symbol-princess symbol-princess symbol" for special role 2 (also called big bonus), special role. 3 (also called a regular bonus) is "BAR symbol-BAR symbol-BAR symbol".

When any of the special combinations 1 to 3 is internally won, the special combination internal winning flag corresponding to the internally won combination is set to on (stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300). ). When this flag is set to ON, the main control unit 300 shifts the gaming state to the special role internal winning gaming state (hereinafter, this state may be referred to as RT4). This flag remains on until the internally won combination is won, and it becomes easy to win the internally won combination in the next and subsequent games. That is, even if the special role is not won in the game in which one of the special roles 1 to 3 is internally won, the special role will be internally won in the next and subsequent games, and the symbol combination corresponding to the special role ( For example, when the special role 1 is internally won, "7 symbols-7 symbols-7 symbols" are all in a state where it is easy to win a prize.

The main control unit 300 shifts the gaming state to the special gaming state (RT5) based on the display of the symbol combinations corresponding to the special winning combinations 1 to 3 that have been internally elected. Further, in this special gaming state (RT5), when a predetermined number of sheets are paid out, the game shifts to the normal gaming state.

"Re-game combination (re-game combination 1 to 4)" is a winning combination (actuating role) that allows a player to play a game without inserting a medal (game medium) in the next game by winning a prize, and pays out medals. Is not done. The corresponding symbol combination is that the replay combination 1 (also referred to as replay 1 or normal replay) is "replay symbol-replay symbol-replay symbol or watermelon symbol", and replay combination 2A (also referred to as replay 2 or 7 replay). ) Is "7 replay symbol-7 symbol-7 replay symbol", replay role 2B is "7 replay symbol-7 symbol-watermelon symbol", and replay role 2C (also called replay 2 or 7 replay) is "bell" "Character-7 symbol-7 replay symbol", replay role 2D (also called replay 2, 7 aligned replay) is "7 replay symbol-7 bell symbol-7 replay symbol (also called replay 2, 7 aligned replay)", Replay 2E (also called replay 2 or 7 set replay) is "7 replay symbol-bell symbol-watermelon symbol", and replay 2F (also called replay 2 or 7 set replay) is "bell symbol-7 symbol" -Watermelon symbol ", Replay 2G (also called replay 2 or 7 set replay) is" Bell symbol-7 replay symbol ", Replay 2H (also called replay 2 or 7 set replay) is" Bell design-Bell design-Watermelon design ".

In addition, the replay role 3A (also referred to as replay 3 or 7 set failure replay) is "7 replay symbol-7 symbol-bell symbol", and the replay role 3B (also referred to as replay 3 or 7 set failure replay) is "replay symbol-". "7 symbol-7 replay symbol", replay role 3C (also called replay 3, 7 match failure replay) is "7 replay symbol-replay symbol-7 replay symbol", replay role 3D (replay 3, 7 match failure replay) "7 replay symbol-replay symbol-bell symbol", replay role 3E (also called replay 3, 7 failed replay) is "replay symbol-7 symbol-bell symbol", replay role 3F (replay 3, replay 3, 7 match failure replay) is "replay symbol-replay symbol-7 replay symbol", replay role 3G (also called replay 3, 7 match failure replay) is "bell symbol-replay symbol-replay symbol", replay role 3H (also called replay 3 or 7 set failure replay) is "bell symbol-replay symbol-bell symbol", and replay role 3I (also called replay 3 or 7 set failure replay) is "bell symbol-replay symbol-watermelon symbol" The replay role 4 (also referred to as replay 4 or fall replay) is "replay symbol-replay symbol-bell symbol".

In the main control unit 300, in the re-game combination high probability preparation state (hereinafter, this state may be referred to as RT2), the symbol combination corresponding to any of the re-game combination 2A to 2H is displayed on the effective line. Based on this, the re-game combination high probability state (hereinafter, this state may be referred to as RT3) is shifted to, so that the re-game combination 2A to 2H in this case is also referred to as RT3 start replay. Further, the main control unit 300 is set to the re-game combination low probability state (RT1) based on the fact that the symbol combination corresponding to the re-game combination 4 is displayed on the effective line in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3). Since there is a case of shifting, the replay role 4 is also called a fall replay.

"Small role (small role 1 to 4)" is a winning role in which a predetermined number of medals are paid out by winning a prize, and the corresponding symbol combination is that small role 1 (also called watermelon) is "watermelon symbol-watermelon symbol-watermelon symbol". , Small role 2 (also called strong cherry) is "cherry symbol-ANY symbol-cherry symbol or watermelon symbol", small role 3 (also called weak cherry) is "cherry symbol-ANY symbol-replay symbol", small role 4 (Also called a bell) is "bell design-bell design-bell design". The corresponding payout number is as shown in the figure. It should be noted that the small winning combination 1, the small winning combination 2 and the small winning combination 3 are won only when the operation timing is suitable even if the internal winning is won, and are not won when the operation timing is not suitable.

In the case of "cherry symbol-ANY symbol-cherry symbol or watermelon symbol" and "cherry symbol-ANY symbol-replay symbol", the symbol of the middle reel 111 may be any symbol.

<Type of game state>
Next, the types and transitions of the gaming state of the slot machine 100 will be described. FIG. 6 is a transition diagram of the gaming state of the main control unit 300 of the slot machine 100.

The main control unit 300 of the slot machine 100 is roughly divided into a re-game combination low probability state (RT1), a re-game combination high-probability preparation state (RT2), a re-game combination high-probability state (RT3), and a special role internal winning game. It has a state (RT4) and a special gaming state (RT5). The re-game combination low probability state (RT1), the re-game combination high-probability preparation state (RT2), and the re-game combination high-probability state (RT3) are also collectively referred to as a normal gaming state.

7 to 10 are diagrams showing an example of a lottery table used for the internal lottery process of the winning combination. The lottery data is prepared with settings 1 to 6 having different winning probabilities for at least one combination, and a game store clerk or the like can arbitrarily select and set any of the set values.

Here, the set value is the ratio of the total number of game media paid out by the game console to the total number of game media used by the player as the number of bets when playing the game for a predetermined period (hereinafter, It is a value for adjusting (referred to as a payout rate), and can be set at a plurality of stages, for example, setting 1 to setting 6.

In this embodiment, setting 1 is further subdivided into setting 1L, setting 1C, and setting 1R. 7 is a lottery table when the setting is 1L, FIG. 8 is a lottery table when the setting is 1C, FIG. 9 is a lottery table when the setting is 1R, and FIG. 10 is a lottery table when the setting is 6. Is shown.

The horizontal axis represents each game state, and the vertical axis shows the lottery value of each winning combination. The internal winning probability of the winning combination in each gaming state described below is a random number obtained at the time of the internal lottery by acquiring numerical data corresponding to the range of the lottery data associated with each winning combination from the lottery data prepared in the ROM 306. It is obtained by dividing by the numerical data (for example, 65535) in the numerical range. For example, in the replay winning combination low probability state (RT1) of the setting 1L, the lottery value of the small winning combination 1 is 6553, and the winning probability of the small winning combination 1 is 6553/65536 × 100 ≈ 10%. The lottery data is divided into several numerical ranges in advance, and each numerical range is associated with each winning combination or loss. It is determined which combination the random number value obtained as a result of executing the internal lottery corresponds to the lottery data, and the internal lottery combination is determined. The internal winning probability shown in this figure is an example, and is not limited to this probability.

Hereinafter, the gaming state of the main control unit 300 of the slot machine 100 will be described with reference to the drawings as appropriate.

<Replaying role low probability state (RT1)>
The re-game combination low probability state (RT1) is a game state in which the internal winning probability of the re-game is low (disadvantageous to the player) in the normal game state, and is also an initial state. In the re-game combination low probability state (RT1), the winning combination to be internally won is drawn by referring to the lottery table in the column of "RT1" on the horizontal axis shown in FIGS. 7 to 10. It should be noted that the types of winning combinations that are internally won in the re-game combination low probability state (RT1) are the same regardless of the set value.

Re-game combination The winning combinations that are internally won in the low probability state (RT1) include special role 1, special role 2, special role 3, re-game role 1, small role 1, small role 2, small role 3, and small role 4. There is. If the winning combination is not won, the winning combination will be lost and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination will not be displayed. In addition, the fact that the symbol combination related to the winning is not stopped on the winning line may be referred to as "loss". In addition, the fact that the winning combination was not won may be expressed as "winning a loss".

<Replaying role high probability ready state (RT2)>
The re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2) is a game state in which the internal winning probability of the re-game is low in the normal game state, but it is also a preparation state until the transition to the re-game combination high probability state. In the re-game combination high probability preparation state, the winning combination to be internally won is drawn by referring to the lottery table in the column of "RT2" on the horizontal axis shown in FIGS. 7 to 10. It should be noted that the types of winning combinations that are internally won in the re-game combination high probability preparation state are the same regardless of the set value.

Re-game role The winning roles that are internally won in the high-probability preparation state include special role 1, special role 2, special role 3, re-game role 1, re-game role 2L, re-game role 2C, re-game role 2R, and small role. There are 1, small role 2, small role 3, and small role 4.

Here, the re-game combination 2L, the re-game combination 2C, and the re-game combination 2R will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating overlapping combinations of the present embodiment.

The re-game combination 2L is a duplicate combination in which the re-game combination 2A to 2H and the re-game combination 3A to 3F and 3G are internally elected at the same time. When the re-game combination 2L is internally won, which combination is displayed according to the operation order of the player is determined. More specifically, when a stop operation is performed with the first stop operation, which is the correct operation order, on the left, a symbol combination (7-match replay, 7-match treatment) corresponding to any of the replay combinations 2A to 2H is performed. (Replay, RT3 start replay) is displayed on the winning line, and in other cases, a symbol combination (7-match failure replay) corresponding to any of the replay combinations 3A to 3F is displayed on the winning line.

Similarly, the re-game combination 2C is a duplicate combination in which the re-game combination 2A to 2H and the re-game combination 3A to 3F and 3H are internally elected at the same time. When the re-game combination 2C is internally won, which combination of symbols is displayed is determined according to the operation order of the player. More specifically, when a stop operation is performed with the first stop operation, which is the correct operation order, in the middle, a symbol combination corresponding to any of the replay combinations 2A to 2H (7-matched replay, RT3 start) (Replay) is displayed on the winning line, and in other cases, a symbol combination (7-match failure replay) corresponding to any of the replay combinations 3A to 3F is displayed on the winning line.

Similarly, the re-game combination 2R is a duplicate combination in which the re-game combination 2A to 2H and the re-game combination 3A to 3F and 3I are internally elected at the same time. When the re-game combination 2R is internally won, which combination of symbols is displayed is determined according to the operation order of the player. More specifically, when a stop operation is performed with the first stop operation on the right, which is the correct operation order, a symbol combination corresponding to any of the replay combinations 2A to 2H (7-matched replay, RT3 start) (Replay) is displayed on the winning line, and in other cases, a symbol combination (7-match failure replay) corresponding to any of the replay combinations 3A to 3F is displayed on the winning line.

The same applies to the re-game combination 2L, the re-game combination 2C, and the re-game combination 2R described here in the gaming states described below.

In FIG. 6, in the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2), when the symbol combination corresponding to the RT3 start replay is displayed on the valid line (when the RT3 start replay is won), the re-game combination amount is high. It has been shown to transition to the stochastic state (RT3). Further, the figure shows that when the special gaming state (RT5) is terminated and the normal gaming state is entered, the re-gaming combination high probability preparation state (RT2) is entered. That is, the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2) is a game state set after the special game state (RT5) ends.

As will be described in detail later, when the re-game combination 2L, the re-game combination 2C, or the re-game combination 2R is internally elected in the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2), the content of the correct stop operation is notified. Push order navigation is executed. Therefore, if the player performs a stop operation according to the notification content of the push order navigation, the player can win the RT3 start replay and shift to the re-game combination high probability state (RT3).

<Replaying role high probability state (RT3)>
The re-game combination high probability state is a game state in which the internal winning probability of the re-game is high (advantageous to the player) in the normal game state, and is a so-called ART (assist replay time) state. In the re-game combination high probability state, the winning combination to be internally won is drawn with reference to the lottery table in the column of "RT3" on the horizontal axis shown in FIGS. 7 to 10.

The type of winning combination that is internally won in the re-game combination high probability state differs depending on the set value. For example, in the case of setting 1L, the winning combinations that are internally won in the re-game combination high probability state are special combination 1, special role 2, special role 3, re-game combination 1, re-game combination 2L, re-game combination 2C, and re-game. There are a combination 2R, a replay role 3C, a replay role 3R, a replay role 4L, a replay role 4C, a replay role 4R, a small role 1, a small role 2, a small role 3, and a small role 4. Further, for example, in the case of setting 1C, the winning combinations that are internally won in the re-game combination high probability state are special combination 1, special combination 2, special combination 3, re-gaming combination 1, re-gaming combination 2L, and re-gaming combination 2C. There are re-game role 2R, re-game role 3L, re-game role 3R, re-game role 4L, re-game role 4C, re-game role 4R, small role 1, small role 2, small role 3, small role 4, for example. In the case of setting 1R, the winning combinations that are internally won in the re-game combination high probability state are special role 1, special role 2, special role 3, re-game role 1, re-game role 2L, re-game role 2C, and re-game role 2R. , Re-game role 3L, re-game role 3C, re-game role 4L, re-game role 4C, re-game role 4R, small role 1, small role 2, small role 3, small role 4. On the other hand, for example, in the case of setting 6, the winning combinations that are internally won in the re-game combination high probability state are special combination 1, special combination 2, special combination 3, re-gaming combination 1, re-gaming combination 2L, and re-gaming combination 2C. Re-game role 2R, re-game role 3L, re-game role 3C, re-game role 3R, re-game role 4L, re-game role 4C, re-game role 4R, small role 1, small role 2, small role 3, small role 4 There is.

It should be noted that the types of winning combinations that are internally won in the re-game combination high probability state may be the same regardless of the set value. However, the internal winning probabilities of some winning combinations differ depending on the set value.

Here, with reference to FIG. 11, the re-game combination 3L, the re-game combination 3C and the re-game combination 3R, and the re-game combination 4L, the re-game combination 4C and the re-game combination 4R will be described.

The re-game combination 3L is a duplicate combination in which the re-game combinations 3A to 3F and 3G are internally elected at the same time, and the re-game combination 3C is an overlap in which each of the re-game combination 3A to 3F and 3H is internally elected at the same time. It is a combination, and the re-game combination 3R is a duplicate combination in which each of the re-game combinations 3A to 3F and 3I is internally elected at the same time.

In the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), if any of the re-game combination 3L, the re-game combination 3C, or the re-game combination 3R is internally won, the re-game combination 3A to 3F will be selected according to the operation contents of the player. The symbol combination (7-match failure replay) corresponding to any of them is displayed on the winning line.

The re-game combination 4L is a duplicate combination in which each of the re-game combination 1, the re-game combination 3G, and the re-game combination 4 is internally elected at the same time. When the re-game combination 4L is internally won, which combination is displayed according to the operation order of the player is determined. More specifically, when a stop operation is performed with the first stop operation, which is the incorrect answer operation order, on the left (in the case of an incorrect answer stop operation), the symbol combination corresponding to the replay combination 4 (fall replay). ) Is displayed on the winning line, and in other cases (in the case of the correct stop operation), the symbol combination corresponding to either the re-gaming combination 1 or the re-gaming combination 3G is displayed on the winning line.

Similarly, the re-game combination 4C is a duplicate combination in which each of the re-game combination 1, the re-game combination 3H, and the re-game combination 4 is internally elected at the same time. When the re-game combination 4C is internally won, which combination of symbols is displayed is determined according to the operation order of the player. More specifically, when a stop operation is performed with the first stop operation as the middle of the incorrect answer operation order (in the case of the incorrect answer stop operation), the symbol combination corresponding to the replay combination 4 (fall replay) ) Is displayed on the winning line, and in other cases (in the case of the correct stop operation), the symbol combination corresponding to either the re-gaming combination 1 or the re-gaming combination 3G is displayed on the winning line.

Similarly, the re-game combination 4R is a duplicate combination in which each of the re-game combination 1, the re-game combination 3I, and the re-game combination 4 is internally elected at the same time. When the re-game combination 4R is internally won, it is determined which combination the symbol combination is displayed according to the operation order of the player. More specifically, when a stop operation is performed with the first stop operation, which is the incorrect answer operation order, on the right (in the case of an incorrect answer stop operation), the symbol combination corresponding to the replay combination 4 (fall replay) ) Is displayed on the winning line, and in other cases (in the case of the correct stop operation), the symbol combination corresponding to either the re-gaming combination 1 or the re-gaming combination 3G is displayed on the winning line.

In FIG. 6, in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the number of RT3 games becomes 0 by digesting all the remaining games (hereinafter referred to as the number of RT3 games) in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3). When the symbol combination corresponding to the fall replay is displayed on the valid line (when the fall replay is won), it is shown that the player shifts to the replay combination low probability state (RT1). Further, in the figure, in the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2), when the symbol combination corresponding to the RT3 start replay is displayed on the valid line (when the RT3 start replay is won), the re-game is played. It has been shown to transition to a high probability state (RT3).

More specifically, (1) After finishing the special game state (RT5) started by winning the special role 1 or 2 (big bonus), the re-game is played via the re-game role high probability preparation state (RT2). When the player shifts to the high probability state (RT3), 50 games are given as the number of RT3 games, and (2) the special game state (RT5) started by winning the special role 3 (regular bonus) is completed. After that, when the player shifts to the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) via the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2), 20 games are given as the number of RT3 games. Then, the number of RT3 games is subtracted by 1 each time the game in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) is advanced by one game.

In the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), when a predetermined condition is satisfied, the RT3 game number addition process (details will be described later) is performed to add the RT3 game number.

Further, in FIG. 6, in the normal game state (RT1, RT2, RT3), if the special role is internally won and the special role is not won in the game internally won, the special role internal winning game is shown. Shifting to the state (RT4), in the normal game state (RT1, RT2, RT3), if the special role is internally won and the special role is internally won in the game, the special role internal winning game It has been shown to transition to state (RT4).

The re-game combination high probability state (RT3) of the present embodiment specifically includes a normal state and a high probability state. The normal state is the initial state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), and is set when shifting from the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2). Then, when the lottery for the number of high-probability state games executed in the normal state is won, a predetermined number of games in the high-probability state (hereinafter, the number of high-probability state games) is given, and the game shifts to the high-probability state. On the other hand, when all the number of high-probability state games given in the high-probability state is exhausted and the number of high-probability state games becomes 0, the high-probability state is terminated and the normal state is entered. Even in the high probability state, the high probability state game number lottery is executed, and if the high probability state transition lottery is won, the high probability state game number is added.

It should be noted that the internal winning probability of the replaying combination is not different between the normal state and the high probability state, and there is a difference in the execution frequency of the push order hitting effect described later.

FIG. 12A is a diagram schematically showing the contents of the high-probability state transition lottery table used for the high-probability state game number lottery of the main control unit 300. For example, in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), when the small role 1 (watermelon) is internally won, there is a probability of 64/128 for 1 game, a probability of 48/128 for 10 games, and a probability of 16/128. A high probability state game number of 20 games is given. In addition, when the small role 2 (strong cherry) is internally won in RT3, there is a high probability state game of 32/128 for 1 game, 64/128 for 10 games, and 32/128 for 20 games. If a number is given and the small role 3 (weak cherry) is internally won in RT3, there is a 64/128 chance of 0 games, a 60/128 chance of 1 game, and a 3/128 chance of 10 games, 1 With a probability of / 128, the number of high-probability state games of 20 games is given. That is, in the high-probability state game number lottery when the small winning combination 1 or the small winning combination 2 is internally won, there is no loss and a predetermined number of high-probability state games are given, but when the small winning combination 3 is internally won. In the high-probability state game number lottery, there is a 1/2 chance of losing, and in this case, the high-probability state game number is not given. In the high-probability state game number lottery of the present embodiment, there is a case of loss, but a lottery without loss may be used.

Since the high-probability state is one state of the re-game combination high-probability state (RT3), if the number of high-probability state games becomes larger than the above-mentioned number of RT3 games as a result of the high-probability state game number lottery, The number of RT3 games is set as the number of high-probability state games.

The high probability state is a state in which a privilege is given. Specifically, in the high-probability state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the re-game combination 2L, 2C, or 2R is internally won, and the correct answer is stopped to perform any of the re-game combination 2A to 2H ( Hereinafter, when a prize is won in (collectively referred to as replay 2), the above-mentioned processing for adding the number of RT3 games is executed, and the number of RT3 games is added.

Here, the process of adding the number of RT3 games will be described. The process of adding the number of RT3 games of the present embodiment is executed when, in the high probability state of RT3, one of the replay combination 2L, 2C, or 2R is internally won, and the correct answer is stopped to win the replay 2. Will be done. In the process of adding the number of RT3 games, a lottery for adding the number of RT3 games is performed, and a predetermined number of RT3 games (hereinafter, also referred to as the number of additional RT3 games) is given based on the result of the lottery for adding the number of RT3 games.

FIG. 12B is a diagram schematically showing the contents of the RT3 game number addition lottery table used in the RT3 game number addition lottery of the main control unit 300. For example, in the case of setting 1L, (1) when the correct answer stop operation is on the left (when the replay role 2L is won), 10 games are played on 32/128, 30 games are played on 32/128, and 50 games are played on 64/128. (2) When the correct answer is stopped (when the player wins the replay 2C), 10 games are given at 56/128, 30 games are given at 56/128, and 50 games are given at 10/128. 3) When the correct stop operation is on the right (when winning the replay 2R), 10 games are given at 56/128, 30 games at 56/128, and 50 games at 10/128.

In the setting 1L of the present embodiment, the internal winning probability of the re-game combination 2L is the highest among the re-game combination 2L, the re-game combination 2C, and the re-game combination 2R in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3). (See Fig. 7), so the probability of winning the re-game role 2L is the highest. Therefore, in the lottery for adding the number of RT3 games of the present embodiment, in the case of the setting 1L, the expected value of the number of additional RT3 games when winning the re-game combination 2L, which has the highest probability of winning, is the highest.

This tendency is the same for the settings 1C and 1R. In the lottery for adding the number of RT3 games of the present embodiment, in the case of setting 1C, the expected value of the number of additional RT3 games when winning the replaying combination 2C is the highest, and in the case of setting 1R, when winning the replaying combination 2R. The expected value of the number of additional RT3 games is the highest.

Of course, this is just an example, and the game playability may be reversed. That is, the expected value of the number of additional RT3 games given to the winning combination having a low probability of winning in the lottery for adding the number of RT3 games may be increased.

As will be described in detail later, in the high probability state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), when the re-game combination 2L, the re-game combination 2C, or the re-game combination 2R is internally won, the content of the correct stop operation The push order hitting effect is executed. Therefore, when the push order hitting effect is executed, if the correct answer is stopped, the number of RT3 games is added as a privilege.

Further, as will be described in detail later, in the high probability state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), when the re-game combination 4L, the re-game combination 4C, or the re-game combination 4R is internally won, the re-game combination 1 The fall avoidance navigation that notifies the stop operation (stop operation of the correct answer) for winning a prize is executed. Therefore, when this fall avoidance navigation is executed, according to the notification content, the re-game combination 4 is not won, and it is possible to avoid shifting to the re-game low probability state (RT1). .. If the number of RT3 games becomes 0 in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) and the re-game combination 4L, the re-game combination 4C, or the re-game combination 4R is internally elected, the fall avoidance navigation is not executed.

<Special role internal winning game state (RT4)>
The special role internal winning game state (RT4) is a state in which the internal winning flag corresponding to the special role 1, special role 2 or special role 3 is set to on, and the player performs a stop operation at a predetermined timing. Then, it is a gaming state in which the symbol combination corresponding to the special role corresponding to this flag can be displayed. In the special combination internal winning game state (RT4), the winning combination to be internally won is drawn with reference to the lottery table in the column of "RT4" on the horizontal axis shown in FIGS. 7 to 10. The types of winning combinations that are internally won in the special combination internal winning game state (RT4) are the same regardless of the set value.

Special role internal winning The winning combination that is internally won in the game state (RT4) includes a re-game combination 1, a small role 1, a small role 2, a small role 3, and a small role 4. If the winning combination is not won, the winning combination will be lost and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination will not be displayed.

Further, FIG. 6 shows that in the special combination internal winning game state (RT4), when the symbol combination corresponding to the internally won special combination is displayed, the game shifts to the special game state (RT5). ..

<Special game state (RT5)>
The special gaming state (RT5) is the gaming state that is most advantageous to the player among all the gaming states. Here, the advantage is specifically the total number of game media paid out by the game console with respect to the total number of game media used by the player as the number of bets when playing the game for a predetermined period. It refers to the ratio, the so-called payout rate (ball payout rate).

In the special game state, the winning combination to be internally won is drawn by referring to the lottery table in the column of "RT5" on the horizontal axis shown in FIGS. 7 to 10. The types of winning combinations that are internally won in the special gaming state (RT5) are the same regardless of the set value.

The winning combinations that are internally won in the special game state are small winning combination 1, small winning combination 2, small winning combination 3, and small winning combination 4. In addition, if the winning combination is not won, it will be lost and the symbol combination corresponding to the winning combination will not be displayed. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 10, in the case of setting 6, the internal winning probability of the small winning combination 4 is higher than in the case of settings 1L, 1C and 1R, and as a result, as a result, The probability of losing is low.

FIG. 6 shows that in the special gaming state (RT5), when a predetermined number of medals are paid out, the state shifts to the re-gaming combination high probability preparation state (RT2) in the normal gaming state. Specifically, in the case of shifting to the special gaming state (RT5) based on the display of the symbol combination corresponding to the special winning combination 1 or 2, when more than 300 medals are paid out, the replaying combination It shifts to the high probability ready state (RT2). In addition, when the game shifts to the special game state (RT5) based on the display of the symbol combination corresponding to the special role 3, if more than 100 medals are paid out, the re-game role low probability state ( Move to RT1).

In this embodiment, the special game state ends when a predetermined number of cards are paid out, but for example, a game ends when a predetermined combination (for example, a single bonus) is won, or a predetermined number of times (for example, a predetermined number of times). It may be terminated when a prize is won (for example, 8 times) or when a predetermined number of games (for example, 6 times) are played.

Finally, to summarize the lottery data of each setting shown in FIGS. 7 to 10, the ball output rates of the settings 1L, 1C and 1R are the same. This is because the settings 1L, 1C and 1R are re-entered in the group (re-game combination 2 group) in which the re-game combination 2L, the re-game combination 2C, and the re-game combination 2R are combined, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9. The numerical data assigned to the special role and the small role are the same, although the assigned numerical data in the group (3 groups of the re-game combination) including the game combination 3L, the re-game combination 3C, and the re-game combination 3R are different. At the same time, the total of the numerical data assigned to the entire re-game combination (re-game combination 1, re-game combination 2L, 2C and 2R, re-game combination 3L, 3C and 3R, re-game combination 4L, 4C and 4R) is also the same. Because it is.

On the other hand, in the settings 1L, 1C and 1R, since the assigned numerical data is biased within the replay combination 2 group, the first stop operation for winning the replay 2 is also biased. For example, in setting 1L, a stop operation with the first stop operation on the left is easy to win in replay 2, in setting 1C, a stop operation with the first stop operation in the middle is easy to win in replay 2, and in setting 1R, it is easy to win. The stop operation with the first stop operation on the right makes it easier to win the replay 2. That is, the player can grasp which of the settings 1L, 1C, and 1R is set from the history of the stop operation that makes it easy to win the replay 2.

Further, in setting 6, the internal winning probability of the special combination (special combination 1 to 3) in RT1 to RT3 is higher than that of other settings (for example, setting 1L, 1C and 1R, setting 2 to 5 not shown). Further, in the special gaming state (RT5), the probability of loss is lower than that of other settings (for example, settings 1L, 1C and 1R, settings 2 to 5 (not shown)). As a result, the player can expect the setting 6 from these phenomena. Further, as shown in FIG. 10, since the numerical data assigned to the replay combinations 2L, 2C, and 2R are the same, there is no bias in the first stop operation for winning the replay 2.

In the lottery data shown in FIGS. 7 to 10, there was no difference in the internal winning probability of the special winning combination and the internal winning probability of the small winning combination in the settings 1L, 1C and 1R, but a slight difference was provided. You may do so. The set value can be estimated from these differences.

<Outline of production>
The effects executed in the re-game combination high-probability preparation state (RT2) and the re-game combination high-probability state (RT3) of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 13 to 15.

FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an effect mode of a push ordering effect executed when any of the re-game combination 2L, 2C, or 2R is internally won in the high-probability state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3). Is.

The push order guessing effect is an effect of hitting the first stop operation (left, middle, right) of the correct answer, and as shown in FIG. 13, a privilege is given when the correct answer is urged and the correct answer is given. The image d10 (for example, an image including characters such as luxury benefits if the correct answer is applied by applying the three-choice pressing order) is displayed on the effect image display device 157. In the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), an image d1 (for example, AR remaining 28G) showing the number of remaining RT3 games is displayed.

When the player performs the correct stop operation, the replay 2 is displayed, the lottery for adding the number of RT3 games is performed, and the image d11 (for example, the addition + 50G) showing the addition of the number of RT3 games is displayed on the production image display device. It is displayed at 157. On the other hand, when the operation to stop the incorrect answer is performed, the replay 3 is displayed, and the image d12 indicating that the addition of the number of RT3 games has failed is displayed on the effect image display device 157.

FIG. 14A is a diagram illustrating an effect mode of push order navigation executed when any of the re-game combination 2L, 2C, or 2R is internally won in the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2). ..

The push order navigation is an effect of notifying the first stop operation (left, middle, right) of the correct answer, and in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14 (a), a lighting mode using the payout number display 127. The content of the stop operation is notified by the effect image d20 using the effect image display device 157. The operation contents shown in FIG. 14A show that the left, middle, and right are the correct first stop operations in order from the top.

The player can win the RT3 start replay and shift to the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) by following the notification content of the push order navigation.

In the push order navigation of the present embodiment, the payout number display device 127 is used together with the effect image display device 157, but the present invention is not limited to this, and it goes without saying that other effect devices may be used. Further, the push order navigation using the effect device controlled by the main control unit 300 may not be executed. The payout number display 127 is not used as an effect device for the above-mentioned push order effect and the fall avoidance effect described later.

FIG. 14 (b) shows (2) a high-probability state of a re-game combination when (1) a high-probability state of a re-game combination (RT3) is internally won by either 2L, 2C, or 2R of the re-game combination. In (RT3), when the re-game combination 3L, 3C or 3R is internally won, (3) in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the re-game combination 4L, 4C or 4R is internally won. It is a figure explaining the effect mode of the avoidance navigation which is executed when it is done. The avoidance navigation in the cases of (1) and (2) is also called an avoidance navigation with seven sets, and the avoidance navigation in the case of (3) is also called a fall avoidance navigation.

FIG. 15 is a diagram schematically showing the contents of the avoidance navigation lottery table used in the avoidance navigation lottery for determining the operation contents of the avoidance navigation in the first sub-control unit 400. In each setting of settings 1L, 1C and 1R, the avoidance navigation lottery table in the case of (1) corresponds to the numbers 5 to 7, and the avoidance navigation lottery table in the case of (2) corresponds to the numbers 8 to 10. , (3), the avoidance navigation lottery table corresponds to the numbers 11 to 13.

In the present embodiment, as described above, in the case of setting 1 (specifically, in the case of setting 1L, 1C, 1R), the internal winning of the replay combination 2L, 2C, and 2R in the replay combination high probability state (RT3). There is a bias in probability. Therefore, when the push order hitting effect is executed, a bias occurs in the push order of the correct answer. Therefore, in the present embodiment, in the normal state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) in which the push order hitting effect is not executed, the 7-match avoidance navigation is executed to avoid winning the replay 2. Hereinafter, the case of setting 1L will be described as an example.

In the case of the setting 1L, the probability of internally winning the re-game combination 2L is higher than the probability of internally winning the re-game combination 2C and 2R (see FIG. 7). Therefore, in the push ordering effect executed in the high probability state, there are many correct answers in which the left is the first stop operation. On the other hand, in the normal state, as shown in FIG. 15, when the re-game combination 2L is internally won in the normal state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the first stop operation is set to the middle or right. If the avoidance navigation and the re-game combination 2C are internally won, the first stop operation is left or right. If the avoidance navigation and the re-game combination 2R are internally won, the first stop operation is left or middle. Execute the 7-match avoidance navigation. For example, if the re-game combination 2L is internally won in the normal state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), there is a 64/128 probability that the 7-match avoidance navigation with the first stop operation in the middle is executed, and 64 With a probability of / 128, the 7-match avoidance navigation with the first stop operation on the right is executed.

As a result, in the 7-aligned avoidance navigation (numbers 5 to 7 of the setting 1L) of (1), the execution probability of the 7-aligned avoidance navigation with the first stop operation as the middle or right (total of 2500 numerical data) is the first. It will be higher than the execution probability (total of numerical data 1000) of the 7-aligned avoidance navigation with the stop operation on the left. Therefore, in the present embodiment, in addition to executing the 7-match avoidance navigation of (2), the content of the first stop operation to be notified is not biased. For example, in the 7-match avoidance navigation when the re-game combination 3C is internally won, the first stop operation is left or middle, and in the 7-match avoidance navigation when the re-game combination 3R is internally won, the first stop operation is left or middle. It is inside.

As a result, in the 7-match avoidance navigation (numbers 5 to 10 of setting 1L) of (1) and (2), the execution probability is the same regardless of the content of the notified stop operation (total of numerical data 4000). There is. That is, the 7-match avoidance navigation in (2) is an avoidance navigation for adjusting the execution probability of the 7-match avoidance navigation in (1).

As described above, in the present embodiment, it is possible to estimate the set value based on the execution of the push ordering effect and the result, but the estimation of the set value cannot be understood from the execution of the 7-match avoidance navigation. ..

The fall avoidance navigation system is used to win the re-game combination 1 when the re-game combination 4L, the re-game combination 4C, or the re-game combination 4R is internally won in the high-probability state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3). It is an effect of notifying the stop operation (the correct stop operation). In addition, in the state where the number of RT3 games becomes 0 in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), if the re-game combination 4L, the re-game combination 4C, or the re-game combination 4R is internally won, the fall avoidance navigation is performed. Not executed.

For example, in the setting 1L, when the re-game combination 4L is internally won, the stop operation (incorrect answer stop operation) for winning the re-game combination is the first stop operation on the left, so in the fall avoidance navigation, Executes the fall avoidance navigation of the notification content with the first stop operation in the middle or right. Specifically, when the 4L is internally won, the fall avoidance navigation with the first stop operation as the middle is executed with the probability of 64/128, and the fall with the first stop operation as the right with the probability of 64/128. Execute avoidance navigation.

Here, in the present embodiment, the production modes of the 7-aligned avoidance navigation and the fall avoidance navigation are the same. That is, if the operation contents to be notified are the same, as shown in FIG. 14B, the effect image d30 displayed on the effect image display device 157 when executing the 7-aligned avoidance navigation and the fall avoidance navigation are executed. The effect image d30 displayed on the effect image display device 157 is the same. As a result, the player cannot distinguish between the 7-aligned avoidance navigation system and the fall avoidance navigation system from the effect image of the effect image display device 157. As described above, the fall avoidance navigation system does not shift to the re-game combination low probability state (RT1) as long as the stop operation is performed according to the notification content. To put it the other way around, if a stop operation that does not follow the notification content is performed, the game shifts to a re-game combination low probability state (RT1), which is a disadvantageous gaming state, so that the stop player will comply with the notification content. .. Specifically, if the replay combination 2L, 2C, or 2R is internally won in the normal state, and if the stop operation that does not follow the notification content is performed, the replay 2 may be won, so that the set value can be estimated. It may be used. However, when the re-game combination 4L, 4C, or 4R is internally won, if the stop operation is performed in accordance with the notification content, the re-game combination 4 is won and the state shifts to the re-game combination low probability state (RT1). Since there is a danger, the player is afraid of this danger and complies with the content of the notification. As a result, when the 7-match avoidance navigation or the fall avoidance navigation is executed, the player will perform the stop operation according to the notification content.

As described above, according to the avoidance navigation lottery table shown in FIG. 15 and the avoidance navigation effect mode shown in FIG. 14 (b), it is possible to grasp which replay combination was internally won from the execution frequency and effect mode of the avoidance navigation system. Can't be done.

The content of the avoidance lottery navigation table shown in FIG. 15 is an example, and is not limited to this. As a whole, it is sufficient that the content of the first stop operation notified in the avoidance navigation is not biased and the execution probabilities of the avoidance navigation notifying the left, middle, and right are the same. Further, the bias of the execution probability of the avoidance navigation may differ to the extent that it is difficult to estimate the set value. For example, if a day's game (about 8000 games) is performed and the difference in the notification contents can be estimated, the one-day game will not converge, so only the push ordering effect can be used as the material for estimating the set value. it can.

Further, although not shown, the avoidance navigation may be executed when the re-game combination 1 is internally elected in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3). Of course, in this case, the execution probabilities of the avoidance navigations that notify the left, middle, and right are the same.

<Operation of slot machine>
Based on the above features, the processes of the main control unit 300, the first sub-control unit 400, and the second sub-control unit 500 will be described below with reference to the drawings.

<Main control unit main processing>
First, the main control unit main process executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 will be described with reference to FIG. The figure is a flowchart showing the flow of the main processing of the main control unit.

As described above, the main control unit 300 is provided with a start signal output circuit (reset signal output circuit) 338 that outputs a start signal (reset signal) when the power is turned on. The CPU 304 of the basic circuit 302 to which the start signal is input reset-starts by reset interrupt and executes the main control unit main process shown in FIG. 16 according to the control program stored in the ROM 306 in advance.

When the power is turned on, first, the initial setting process is executed in step S101. In this initial setting process, various initial settings are performed. For example, setting the stack initial value in the stack pointer (SP) of the CPU 304, setting the interrupt prohibition, the initial setting of the I / O 310, the initial setting of various variables stored in the RAM 308, the operation permission in the WDT 314, and the setting of the initial value. And so on.

When the power switch is turned on while the setting key switch (not shown) provided inside the main body is in the ON state, the setting change process, which is a process for changing the set value, is executed.

In step S102, the game start process is executed. In the game start process, it is checked whether or not a medal has been inserted, and preparations are made for sending an insertion command indicating that a medal has been inserted. If the player wins the re-game combination in the previous game, the process of inserting the same number of medals as the number of medals inserted in the previous game is performed, so that the player does not need to insert medals. Further, it is checked whether or not the start lever 135 has been operated, and if the start lever 135 is operated, the process proceeds to step S103.

In step S103, the number of inserted medals is determined, a valid winning line is determined, the random number generated by the random number generation circuit 316 is acquired, and the winning combination internal lottery process is executed. In the winning combination internal lottery process, the winning combination lottery table stored in the ROM 306 is read according to the current gaming state, and the internal lottery is performed using this and the acquired random number value, and the result of this internal lottery is shown. Preparations are made for transmitting the internal lottery command to the first sub-control unit 400. As a result of the internal lottery, if any of the winning combinations (including the operating combination) is internally won, the winning combination flag is turned on. For example, when the re-game combination 2L is internally won, an internal lottery command indicating that the re-game combination 2L is internally won is transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400.

In step S104, RT2-related processing (details will be described later) relating to the production of the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2) is executed.

In step S105, the reel stop data selection process for selecting the reel stop data is performed based on the internal lottery result of the winning combination internal lottery process. The reel stop data is stored in the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300. Further, in step S105, preparations are made for transmitting a reel stop data command including information regarding the selected reel stop data to the first sub-control unit 400.

In step S106, the reel rotation start process is executed to start the rotation of all the reels 110 to 112.

In step S107, the reel stop control process is executed. In the reel stop control process, the stop buttons 137 to 139 can be accepted, and when any of the stop buttons is pressed, the stop table of the reel stop data is displayed in order to stop the reel corresponding to the pressed stop button. Refer to it and stop any of the reels 110 to 112 according to the number of lead-in frames set in the stop table. When all reels 110 to 112 are stopped, the process proceeds to step S110. In this step S107, for each stop operation, the stop button reception command for the stop buttons 137 to 139 that have been stopped (specifically, for the first stop operation, the stop button reception 1 command and the second stop operation). For the third stop operation, the stop button reception 2 command) is prepared to be transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400, and for the stop of each reel, the reel is prepared. Reel stop command related to the stop position (specifically, reel stop 1 command for the first stop reel, reel stop 2 command for the second stop operation, reel stop for the third stop operation 3 Command) is prepared to be transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400.

In step S108, a winning determination process for determining a winning is performed. In this winning combination processing, when a pattern combination corresponding to any winning combination is displayed on the activated winning line 114, it is determined that the winning combination has been won. For example, if "bell-bell-bell" is aligned on the activated winning line, it is determined that the player has won the small role 4 (bell). Further, in step S108, preparations are made for transmitting a winning determination command indicating the result of the winning determination to the first sub-control unit 400.

In step S109, a game state update process (details will be described later) relating to the update of the game state is performed. In the game state update process, the main control unit 300 performs a process related to the transition of the game state, and shifts the game state when the start condition or the end condition is satisfied. In addition, preparations are made for transmitting a game state command including information indicating the game state (including a high probability state flag described later).

In step S110, the medal granting process is performed. In the medal granting process, if a winning combination with a payout is won, the number of medals corresponding to the winning combination is paid out according to the number of winning lines.

With the above, one game is completed. After that, the game proceeds by returning to step S102 and repeating the above-described processing.

The various commands prepared in each of the above steps are transmitted in the command setting transmission process (step S206 of FIG. 17) of the main control unit timer interrupt process described later.

<Main control unit timer interrupt processing>
Next, the main control unit timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 will be described with reference to FIG. The figure is a flowchart showing the flow of the timer interrupt process of the main control unit.

The main control unit 300 includes a counter timer 312 that generates a timer interrupt signal at a predetermined cycle (once every 2 ms in the present embodiment), and the main control unit timer interrupt is triggered by this timer interrupt signal. The process is started at a predetermined cycle.

In step S201, the timer interrupt start process is performed. In this timer interrupt start process, a process of temporarily saving the value of each register of the CPU 304 to the stack area is performed.

In step S202, the WDT314 is periodically (this) so that the count value of the WDT314 does not exceed the initial setting value (32.8 ms in the present embodiment) and the WDT interrupt does not occur (so as not to detect a processing abnormality). In the embodiment, the restart is performed once every about 2 ms, which is the cycle of interrupting the main control unit timer.

In step S203, the input port state update process is performed. In this input port state update process, the detection signals of the sensor circuits 320 of the various sensors 318 are input via the input port of the I / O 310 to monitor the presence or absence of the detection signals, and the RAM 308 is partitioned for each of the various sensors 318. It is stored in the provided signal state storage area.

In step S204, various game processes are executed, and processes according to the interrupt status are executed.

In step S205, the timer update process is performed. More specifically, various timers are updated in each time unit.

In step S206, the command setting transmission process is performed, and various commands prepared for transmission are transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400. In the first sub-control unit 400, the command type included in the received output schedule information enables the determination of the effect control according to the change in the game control in the main control unit 300, and is included in the output schedule information. Based on the information of the command data, the effect control content can be determined.

In step S207, the external output signal setting process is performed. In this external output signal setting process, the game information stored in the RAM 308 is output to the information input circuit 652, which is separate from the slot machine 100, via the information output circuit 334.

In step S208, device monitoring processing is performed. In this device monitoring process, first, in step S203, the signal states of the various sensors 318 stored in the signal state storage area are read out, and the presence or absence of errors related to medal insertion abnormality, medal payout abnormality, etc. is monitored, and if an error is detected, (Not shown) Error processing is executed. Further, the medal selector 170 (medal blocker in which the solenoid provided in the medal selector 170 operates), various lamps 339, and various 7-segment (SEG) displays are set according to the current gaming state.

In step S209, it is monitored whether or not the low voltage signal is on. Then, when the low voltage signal is on (when the power interruption is detected), the process proceeds to step S211. When the low voltage signal is off (when the power interruption is not detected), the process proceeds to step S210.

In step S210, various processes for terminating the timer interrupt end process are performed. In this timer interrupt end processing, the value of each register temporarily saved in step S201 is set in each original register. After that, the process returns to the main processing of the main control unit shown in FIG.

On the other hand, in step S211, a specific variable or stack pointer for returning to the state at the time of power failure at the time of power recovery is saved as recovery data in a predetermined area of the RAM 308, and power failure processing such as initialization of the input / output port is performed. After that, the process returns to the main processing of the main control unit shown in FIG.

<RT2 related processing>
Next, the RT2-related processing will be described with reference to FIG. 18A. FIG. 18A is a flowchart showing in detail the flow of RT2-related processing in step S104 of FIG.

In step S301, it is determined whether or not the game state of the main control unit 300 is the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2). If the gaming state of the main control unit 300 is the re-gaming combination high probability preparation state (RT2), the process proceeds to step S302, and if not, the RT2-related processing is terminated.

In step S302, it is determined whether or not the re-game combination 2L, 2C, or 2R has been internally won in the winning combination internal lottery process. If any of the re-game combination 2L, 2C or 2R is internally won, the process proceeds to step S303, and if not, the RT2-related processing is terminated.

In step S303, the push order navigation for notifying the operation order of the correct answer is set according to the internally won re-game combination 2L, 2C or 2R. Specifically, when the re-game combination 2L is internally won, the push order navigation with the first stop operation on the left, and when the re-game combination 2C is internally won, the first stop operation is the middle push. When the forward navigation and the re-game combination 2R are internally won, the push order navigation with the first stop operation on the right is set. In addition, preparations are made for transmitting a command including the contents of the push order navigation to the first sub-control unit 400. As a result, the push order navigation using the payout number display device 127 and the effect image display device 157 is executed (see FIG. 14A).

<Game status update process>
Next, the game state update process will be described with reference to FIG. 18B. FIG. 18B is a flowchart showing in detail the flow of the game state update process in step S109 of FIG.

In step S401, a process related to the number of high-probability state games (detailed later) is executed.

In step S402, the RT3 game number-related process (detailed later) regarding the RT3 game number is executed.

In step S403, other processes related to updating the gaming state are executed.

<Processing related to the number of high-probability state games>
Next, the processing related to the number of high-probability state games will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 19 is a flowchart showing in detail the flow of the high-probability state game number-related processing in step S401 of FIG. 18B.

In step S501, it is determined whether or not the gaming state of the main control unit 300 is the re-gaming combination high probability state (RT3). If it is in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the process proceeds to step S502, and if not, the process related to the number of high probability state games is terminated.

In step S502, it is determined whether or not any of the small winning combinations 1 to 3 has been internally won in the winning combination internal lottery process. If any of the small winning combinations 1 to 3 is internally won, the process proceeds to step S503, and if not, the process proceeds to step S508.

In step S503, since any of the small winning combinations 1 to 3 was internally won in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the high probability state game number lottery is executed. Specifically, the high-probability state game number lottery is executed using the high-probability state game number lottery table shown in FIG. 12 (a).

In step S504, as a result of the high-probability state game number lottery, it is determined whether or not the winning, that is, the number of games other than 0 games is selected. If the game is won in the high-probability state game number lottery, the process proceeds to step S505, and if not, the process proceeds to step S508.

In step S505, it is determined whether or not the high probability state flag is ON. The high-probability state flag is a flag indicating whether or not the high-probability state is in the re-game combination high-probability state (RT3). When the high-probability state flag is ON, the high-probability state is indicated and the high-probability state flag is displayed. When is OFF, it indicates a normal state. If the high probability state flag is ON, the process proceeds to step S506, and if the high probability state flag is OFF, the process proceeds to step S507.

In step S506, since one game in the high probability state has been digested, the number of games in the high probability state is subtracted by 1.

In step S507, the high probability state flag is set to ON. That is, in this case, the lottery for the number of games in the high probability state is won in the normal state of the high probability state (RT3) of the replay game. In this case, in order to start the game in the high probability state from the next game, the high probability state flag is set to ON. After executing the process of step S507, the process proceeds to step S508.

In step S508, the number of high-probability state games given in the high-probability state game number lottery is added to the current number of high-probability state games. For example, if the number of high-probability state games is currently 5, and the number of high-probability state games is 10 in the high-probability state game number lottery, the number of high-probability state games is 15.

On the other hand, in step S509, it is determined whether or not the high probability state flag is ON. If the high-probability state flag is ON, the process proceeds to step S510, and if not, the high-probability state game number-related processing ends.

In step S510, one game in the high-probability state has been digested, so the number of high-probability state games is subtracted by one.

In step S511, it is determined whether or not the number of subtracted high-probability state games is 0. If the number of high-probability state games is 0, the process proceeds to step S512, and if not, the high-probability state game number-related processing ends.

In step S512, since all the high-probability state games have been exhausted, the high-probability state flag is set to OFF. As a result, the normal state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) is started from the next game.

<Processing related to the number of RT3 games>
Next, the RT3 game number-related processing will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 20 is a flowchart showing in detail the flow of the RT3 game number-related processing in step S402 of FIG. 18B.

In step S601, it is determined whether or not the gaming state of the main control unit 300 is the re-gaming combination high probability state (RT3). If it is in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the process proceeds to step S602, and if not, the RT3 game number-related processing is terminated.

In step S602, it is determined whether or not the high probability state flag is ON. If the high probability state flag is ON, the process proceeds to step S603, and if not, the process proceeds to step S606.

In step S603, it is determined whether or not any of the replaying combinations 2A to 2H has won a prize in the winning determination process. If any of the replaying combinations 2A to 2H wins, the process proceeds to step S604, and if not, the process proceeds to step S606.

In step S604, since the player won the replay 2 in the high probability state of the replay combination high probability state (RT3), the lottery for adding the number of RT3 games is executed. Specifically, the lottery for adding the number of RT3 games using the lottery table for adding the number of RT3 games shown in FIG. 12B is performed.

In step S605, the number of RT3 games given in the lottery is added to the current number of RT3 games. For example, if the number of RT3 games is currently 10, and the number of RT3 games is 50 games in the lottery for adding the number of RT3 games, the number of RT3 games will be 60.

In step S606, since one game of the game in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) has been digested, the number of RT3 games is subtracted by one.

In step S607, it is determined whether or not the subtracted number of RT3 games is 0. If the number of RT3 games is 0, the process proceeds to step S608, and if not, the process related to the number of RT3 games ends.

In step S608, it is determined whether or not the re-game combination 4 has been won in the winning determination process of the game. If the re-game combination 4 is won, the process proceeds to step S609, and if not, the RT3 game number-related processing is terminated.

In step S609, since the number of RT3 games is 0 in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) and the re-game combination 4 is won, the setting is made to end the re-game combination high probability state (RT3). As a result, the re-game combination low probability state (RT1) is started from the next game.

In the RT3 game number-related processing of the present embodiment, when the number of RT3 games is 0 in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) and the re-game combination 4 is won, the re-game combination low probability state (RT1) is set. In addition to this, a fall lottery that shifts to the re-game combination low probability state (RT1) is executed every game in the re-game role high probability state (RT3), and if it is won, it is re-shifted. The game may shift to the low probability state (RT1).

<Processing of the first sub-control unit>
Next, the process of the first sub-control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. Note that FIG. 21A is a flowchart of the main process executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub-control unit 400. FIG. 21B is a flowchart of the command reception interrupt process of the first sub-control unit 400. FIG. 21C is a flowchart of the timer interrupt process of the first sub-control unit 400.

First, the main process of the first sub-control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. 21 (a).

When the power is turned on, the initialization process is first executed in step S2001. In this initialization process, the initial setting of the input / output port, the initialization process of the storage area in the RAM 408, and the like are performed. In this process, the RAM 408 is provided with an area for storing the internal winning information, which is information representing the result of the internal winning, and an area for storing the RT update information, which is the information representing the gaming state.

In step S2002, it is determined whether or not the timer variable is 10 or more, and this process is repeated until the timer variable becomes 10, and when the timer variable becomes 10 or more, the process proceeds to step S2003.

In step S2003, 0 is assigned to the timer variable.

In step S2004, command processing, which is processing corresponding to each command received from the main control unit 300, is executed.

In step S2005, an effect control process (detailed later) is performed. Here, the production is prepared according to the production reservation information in the production reservation area provided in the RAM 408. This preparation includes, for example, performing processing such as reading the effect data from the ROM 406, and performing the effect data update process when the effect data needs to be updated.

In step S2006, sound control processing is performed based on the processing result of step S2005. For example, if there is an instruction to the sound source IC 418 in the effect data read in step S2005, this instruction is output to the sound source IC 418.

In step S2007, the lamp control process is performed based on the process result of step S2005. For example, if there is an instruction to the various lamps 420 in the effect data read in step S2005, this instruction is output to the drive circuit 422.

In step S2008, information output processing for setting to send a command to the second sub-control unit 500 is performed based on the processing result of step S2005. For example, if there is a command to be transmitted to the second sub-control unit 500 in the effect data read in step S3005, the setting to output this control command is made, and the process returns to step S2002.

Next, the command reception interrupt process of the first sub-control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. 21B. This command reception interrupt process is a process executed when the first sub-control unit 400 detects a strobe signal output by the main control unit 300. In step S2101 of the command reception interrupt process, the command output by the main control unit 300 is stored as an unprocessed command in the command storage area provided in the RAM 408.

Next, the first sub-control unit timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub-control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. 21 (c). The first sub-control unit 400 includes a hardware timer that generates a timer interrupt at a predetermined cycle (once every 2 ms in the present embodiment), and the timer interrupt process is predetermined with this timer interrupt as an opportunity. Execute in the cycle of.

In step S2201, 1 is added to the value of the timer variable storage area of the RAM 408 described in step S3002 in the first sub-control unit main process shown in FIG. 21A, and the data is stored in the original timer variable storage area. Therefore, in step S3002, the value of the timer variable is determined to be 10 or more every 20 ms (2 ms × 10).

In step S2202, the command is transmitted to the second sub-control unit 500 set in step S2008, the effect random number value is updated, and the like.

<Processing of the second sub control unit>
Next, the process of the second sub-control unit 500 will be described with reference to FIG. Note that FIG. 22A is a flowchart of the main process executed by the CPU 504 of the second sub-control unit 500. FIG. 22B is a flowchart of the command reception interrupt process of the second sub-control unit 500. FIG. 22C is a flowchart of the timer interrupt process of the second sub control unit 500. FIG. 22D is a flowchart of the image control process of the second sub-control unit 500.

First, in step S3001 of FIG. 22A, various initial settings are performed. When the power is turned on, the initialization process is first executed in step S3001. In this initialization process, input / output port initialization processing, initialization processing of the storage area in the RAM 508, initialization processing of the storage area in the VRAM 536, and the like are performed.

In step S3002, it is determined whether or not the timer variable is 10 or more, and this process is repeated until the timer variable becomes 10, and when the timer variable becomes 10 or more, the process proceeds to step S3003.

In step S3003, each command received from the first sub-control unit 400 is saved as an unprocessed command.

In step S3004, 0 is assigned to the timer variable.

In step S3005, command processing is performed. In the command processing, the CPU 504 of the second sub-control unit 500 determines each command received from the CPU 404 of the first sub-control unit 400.

In step S3006, the effect control process is performed. Specifically, when there is a new command in step S3004, the process corresponding to this command is performed. For example, a process of reading the effect data for controlling the image of the background image from the ROM 506 is executed. In addition, processing such as reading out the production data from ROM 506 other than this is included, and when the production data needs to be updated, the production data is updated.

In step S3007, the shutter control process is performed based on the process result of step S3005. For example, if there is a command to the shutter 163 in the effect data read in step S3005, this command is output to the drive circuit 530.

In step S3008, image control processing (details will be described later) is performed based on the processing result of step S3005. For example, if there is an image control command in the effect data read in step S3005, the image control corresponding to this command is performed. For example, image control regarding a display image (notification image, background image) is executed. When this image control process is completed, the process returns to step S3002.

Next, the command reception interrupt process of the second sub-control unit 500 will be described with reference to FIG. 22B. This command reception interrupt process is a process executed when the second sub-control unit 500 detects a strobe signal output by the first sub-control unit 400.

In step S3101 of the command reception interrupt process, the command output by the first sub-control unit 400 is stored as an unprocessed command in the command storage area provided in the RAM 508.

Next, the second sub-control unit timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 504 of the second sub-control unit 500 will be described with reference to FIG. 22 (c). The second sub-control unit 500 includes a hardware timer that generates a timer interrupt at a predetermined cycle (once every 2 ms in the present embodiment), and the timer interrupt process is predetermined with this timer interrupt as an opportunity. Execute in the cycle of.

In step S3201, 1 is added to the value of the timer variable storage area of the RAM 508 described in step S3002 in the second sub-control unit main process shown in FIG. 18A, and the data is stored in the original timer variable storage area. Therefore, in step S3002, the value of the timer variable is determined to be 10 or more every 20 ms (2 ms × 10).

In step S3202, the effect random value value update process and the like are performed.

Next, the image control process of step S4006 in the main process of the second sub-control unit 500 will be described with reference to FIG. 22 (d). The figure is a diagram showing a flowchart showing the flow of image control processing.

In step S3301, the image data transfer instruction is given. Here, the CPU 504 first swaps the designation of the display area A of the VRAM 536 and the drawing area of the display area B. As a result, the one-frame image stored in the display area not designated as the drawing area is displayed on the effect image display device 157. Next, the CPU 504 sets the ROM coordinates (transfer source address of ROM 506), VRAM coordinates (transfer destination address of VRAM 536), etc. in the attribute register of VDP 534 based on the position information table, and then the image from ROM 506 to VRAM 536. Set the command to instruct the start of data transfer. The VDP 534 transfers image data from the ROM 506 to the VRAM 536 based on the instructions set in the attribute register. After that, the VDP 534 outputs a transfer end interrupt signal to the CPU 504.

In step S3302, it is determined whether or not the transfer end interrupt signal from the VDP 534 has been input. If the transfer end interrupt signal is input, the process proceeds to step S3303. If not, the transfer end interrupt signal is input. Wait for it.

In step S3303, parameters are set based on the effect scenario configuration table, attribute data, and the like. Here, in order to form a display image in the display area A or B of the VRAM 536 based on the image data transferred to the VRAM 536 in step S3301, the CPU 504 information on the image data constituting the display image (coordinate axis of the VRAM 536, image size). , VRAM coordinates (arrangement coordinates), transparency, etc.) are instructed to VDP534. The VDP 534 sets parameters according to the attributes based on the instructions stored in the attribute registers.

In step S3304, a drawing instruction is given. In this drawing instruction, the CPU 504 instructs the VDP 534 to start drawing an image. The VDP 534 starts drawing an image in the frame buffer according to the instruction of the CPU 504.

In step S3305, it is determined whether or not the generation end interrupt signal from the VDP 534 is input based on the end of drawing the image. If the generation end interrupt signal is input, the process proceeds to step S3306. If not, the generation end interrupt signal is generated. Wait for to be entered.

In step S3306, the scene display counter that is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 508 and counts how many scenes of images have been generated is incremented (+1) to end the process.

<Direction control processing>
Next, the effect control process will be described with reference to FIG. 23 (a). FIG. 23 (a) is a flowchart showing in detail the flow of the effect control process in step S2005 of FIG. 21 (a).

In step S3301, it is determined whether or not the game state of the main control unit 300 is the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) based on the game state command. If it is in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the process proceeds to step S3302, and if not, the process proceeds to step S3305.

In step S3302, it is determined whether or not the high probability state flag is ON based on the game state command. If the high probability state flag is ON, the process proceeds to step S3303, and if not, the process proceeds to step S3304.

In step S3303, since the game state of the main control unit 300 is in the high probability state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the RT3 high probability state effect control process (details will be described later) is executed.

In step S3304, since the game state of the main control unit 300 is the normal state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the RT3 normal state effect control process (details will be described later) is executed.

In step S3305, since the game state of the main control unit 300 is not in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), ≠ RT3 effect control process (details will be described later) is executed.

<RT3 high probability state production control process>
Next, the effect control process will be described with reference to FIG. 23 (b). FIG. 23B is a flowchart showing in detail the flow of the RT3 high probability state effect control process in step S3303 of FIG. 23A.

In step S3401, it is determined whether or not the re-game combination 2L, 2C, or 2R has been internally won based on the internal lottery command transmitted from the main control unit 300. If any of the re-game combination 2L, 2C or 2R is internally won, the process proceeds to step S3402, and if not, the process proceeds to step S3403.

In step S3402, since the re-game combination 2L, 2C, or 2R was internally won in the high-probability state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the push order hitting effect is set. As a result, the push order effect is executed (see FIG. 13).

In step S3403, it is determined whether or not the re-game combination 3L, 3C or 3R, or the re-game combination 4L, 4C or 4R has been internally won based on the internal lottery command transmitted from the main control unit 300. If any of the re-game combination 3L, 3C or 3R, or the re-game combination 4L, 4C or 4R is internally won, the process proceeds to step S3404, and if not, the process proceeds to step S3405.

In step S3404, in the high probability state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), the re-game combination 3L, 3C or 3R, or the re-game combination 4L, 4C or 4R was internally won, so that the winning combination is internally won. The avoidance navigation lottery is performed according to the situation (see FIG. 15), and the avoidance navigation is set based on the result of the avoidance navigation lottery. As a result, when the re-game combination 3L, 3C or 3R is internally won, the 7-match avoidance navigation is executed, and when the re-game combination 4L, 4C or 4R is internally won, the fall avoidance navigation is executed (FIG. 14 (b). )reference).

In step S3405, a production lottery is performed according to the winning combination, and a production based on the result of the production lottery is set.

<RT3 normal state production control processing>
Next, the effect control process will be described with reference to FIG. 24 (a). FIG. 24A is a flowchart showing in detail the flow of the RT3 normal state effect control process in step S3304 of FIG. 23A.

In step S3501, it is determined whether or not the re-game combination 2L, 2C or 2R, or the re-game combination 3L, 3C or 3R has been internally won based on the internal lottery command transmitted from the main control unit 300. If any of the re-game combination 2L, 2C or 2R, or the re-game combination 3L, 3C or 3R is internally won, the process proceeds to step S3504, and if not, the process proceeds to step S3502.

In step S3502, it is determined whether or not the re-game combination 4L, 4C, or 4R has been internally won based on the internal lottery command transmitted from the main control unit 300. If any of the re-game combinations 4L, 4C or 4R is internally won, the process proceeds to step S3503, and if not, the process proceeds to step S3506.

In step S3503, it is determined whether or not the number of RT3 games is 0. If the number of RT3 games is 0, the process proceeds to step S3505, and if not, the process proceeds to step S3504.

In step S3504, when (1) the re-game combination 2L, 2C or 2R, or the re-game combination 3L, 3C or 3R is internally won in the normal state of the re-game combination high probability state (RT3), (2) Since it is the case that the re-game combination 4L, 4C or 4R is internally won and the number of RT3 games is> 0, the avoidance navigation lottery is performed according to the internally won combination (see FIG. 15), and the result of the avoidance navigation lottery is obtained. Set the avoidance navigation based on this. As a result, in the case of (1), the 7-aligned avoidance navigation is executed, and in the case of (2), the fall avoidance navigation is executed (see FIG. 14B).

In step S3505, since the replay combination 4L, 4C, or 4R is internally won and the number of RT3 games is 0, the navigation is not set. Although details will be described later, in this case, an effect indicating the possibility of ending the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) is executed according to the content of the stop operation (see FIG. 27 (c) described later).

In step S3506, a production lottery is performed according to the winning combination, and a production based on the result of the production lottery is set.

<≠ RT3 production control process>
Next, the ≠ RT3 effect control process will be described with reference to FIG. 24 (b). FIG. 24B is a flowchart showing in detail the flow of the ≠ RT3 effect control process in step S3305 of FIG. 23A.

In step S3601, an effect lottery is performed according to the winning combination, and an effect based on the result of the effect lottery is set.

<Direction in normal game state>
Next, the flow of the effect in the normal gaming state will be described with reference to FIGS. 25 to 27. FIG. 25 shows an example of the flow of the game in the normal game state in the case of the setting 1L. 26 and 27 show the effect image displayed on the effect image display device 157 of the game shown in FIG. 25, and the stop mode of the reels 110 to 112. Since the circled numbers shown in FIGS. 25 to 27 indicate the numbers of each step, they will be referred to as steps below.

When the special game state (RT5) is completed (step 1), the re-game combination high probability preparation state (RT2) is started (step 2), and then the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) is started (step S3). ), The re-game combination high probability state (RT3) is in the normal state. Therefore, when the re-game combination 2L is internally won in the normal state, the execution condition of the push order hitting effect is not satisfied, and the 7-match avoidance navigation is executed (step S4). FIG. 26A shows an effect mode of the 7-aligned avoidance navigation in step S4. Similarly, even when the re-game combination 2R is internally elected in the normal state, since the execution condition of the push order hitting effect is not satisfied, the 7-match avoidance navigation is executed (step S5). FIG. 26B shows an effect mode of the 7-aligned avoidance navigation in step S5. Further, even when the re-game combination 3C is internally elected in the normal state, the execution condition of the push order hitting effect is not satisfied, so that the 7-match avoidance navigation is executed (step S6). FIG. 26C shows an effect mode of the 7-aligned avoidance navigation in step S6. Further, when the re-game combination 4R is internally won in the normal state, the fall avoidance navigation is executed (step S7). FIG. 26D shows an effect mode of the fall avoidance navigation in step S7.

As shown in FIGS. 26 (a) to 26 (d), the seven-aligned avoidance navigation system and the fall avoidance navigation system have the same effect mode. Therefore, the player cannot distinguish between the 7-aligned avoidance navigation system and the fall avoidance navigation system from the effect image of the effect image display device 157. As described above, the fall avoidance navigation system does not shift to the re-game combination low probability state (RT1) as long as the stop operation is performed according to the notification content, so that the player observes the notification content. As a result, when the 7-match avoidance navigation or the fall avoidance navigation is executed, the player will perform the stop operation according to the notification content.

After that, in the normal state, the small winning combination 2 is internally won, and when the number of high-probability state games is given, the game shifts to the high-probability state (step S8). Then, when any of the re-game combination 2L, 2C, or 2R is internally won in the high probability state, the execution condition of the push order hitting effect is satisfied, so that the push order hitting effect is executed (step S9). FIG. 26E shows an effect mode of the push order effect of step S9. If the correct answer is given in the push order, the replay 2 wins, the effect image of the correct push order is displayed, and the number of RT3 games is added (step S10). FIG. 26 (f) shows the effect mode of step S10, and FIG. 26 (g) shows the stop mode of the reels 110 to 112 of step S10. On the other hand, if the correct answer is not given in the push order, the replay 3 wins and the effect image of the wrong push order is displayed (step S11). 27 (a) shows the effect mode of step S11, and FIG. 27 (b) shows the stop mode of the reels 110 to 112 of step S11.

After that, when the number of RT3 games becomes 0 (step S12), the re-game combination 4L, 4C or 4R is internally won, and the incorrect answer is stopped to win the re-game combination 4, the re-game combination low probability state is reached. The process proceeds to (RT1) (steps S13 and 14). 27 (c) and 27 (d) show the effect mode of step S13, and FIG. 27 (e) shows the stop mode of the reels 110 to 112 of step S13. More specifically, FIG. 27 (c) shows an effect mode of the fall avoidance effect executed when the re-game combination 4L, 4C or 4R is internally won. In the fall avoidance effect, the effect image display device 157 displays an image d40 indicating that the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) will continue if the correct answer is stopped to avoid winning the re-game combination 4. Since the number of RT3 games is 0, an image d2 (for example, an image such as AR remaining ?? G) in which the number of games display is ambiguous is displayed. Further, FIG. 27D shows an effect mode of the failure effect executed when the incorrect answer is stopped and the re-game combination 4 is won. In the failure effect, the image d41 indicating the operation to stop the incorrect answer is displayed on the effect image display device 157.

<Progress of game and ball output rate>
Next, the progress of the game and the ball output rate will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 28 (a) is a time chart showing the transition of the ball ejection rate in the case of the setting 1L, and FIG. 28 (b) shows the first stop operation and the ball ejection rate in the push order hitting effect in the case of the setting 1L. A table showing the relationship, FIG. 28 (c), is a table showing the relationship between the first stop operation and the ball output rate in the push order hitting effect in the case of setting 6.

FIG. 28A shows the relationship between the push-ordering effect and the ball output rate as the game progresses in the high-probability state of the re-game combination high-probability state (RT3).

In the initial section G1 that shifts to the high probability state, even if the push order hitting effect is executed, the player does not know the correct stop operation, so the first stop operation is randomly performed (left, middle, right are equal). Tends to do. In this case, the payout rate is expected to be less than 100% (according to the table of FIG. 28B, the payout rate is 95% in the case of random).

However, as the game progresses and the push ordering effect is executed many times, the player feels that it is more likely that the privilege will be given if the first stop operation is set to the left from the past operation history. Therefore, in the section G2, a large number of stop operations are performed with the first stop operation on the left in the push order hitting effect. As a result, it is expected that the ball output rate will be about 100% (according to the table in FIG. 28 (b), in the case of two choices including the left, the ball output rate is 101%).

If the game is further advanced and the push ordering effect is repeatedly executed, the player recognizes from the past operation history that there is a high possibility that the privilege will be granted if the first stop operation is set to the left. In the section G3, only the stop operation with the first stop operation on the left is performed in the push order hitting effect. As a result, it is assumed that the ball output rate exceeds 100% (according to the table of FIG. 28 (b), the ball output rate is 105% in the case of only the left side).

Regarding the cases of settings 1C and 1R, a table showing the relationship between the first stop operation and the ball ejection rate in the push order pressing effect is not shown, but the tendency is the same. That is, in the case of (1) setting 1C, regarding the first stop operation, 92% does not include the inside, 95% is random, 101% is 2 choices including the inside, and 105% is only inside, (2). In the case of setting 1R, regarding the first stop operation, 92% does not include the right, 95% is random, 101% is two choices including the right, and 105% is only the right.

In this way, in the settings 1L, 1C, and 1R, the ball output rate is increased by stopping the correct answer of the re-game combination, which has the highest probability of being internally won among the re-game combination 2L, 2C, and 2R. Therefore, the operation content that increases the ball output rate differs depending on the setting.

Further, in the case of setting 6, as shown in FIG. 28 (c), there is no bias due to the first stop operation, and the ball ejection rate is 108% regardless of which stop operation is performed. That is, in setting 6, as described above, the internal winning probability of the special combination (special combination 1 to 3) is higher than that of other settings (for example, settings 1L, 1C and 1R, settings 2 to 5 (not shown)). 7 to 10), and the number of RT3 games given in the process of adding the number of RT3 games is also larger than other settings (for example, settings 1L, 1C and 1R, settings 2 to 5 not shown) (FIG. 12 (FIG. 12). b)), which is higher than the upper limit of the ball output rate of the settings 1L, 1C and 1R.

In this way, in the push order effect of the present embodiment, even if the setting is low, if the game period in the high probability state becomes long, the player gradually grasps the correct stop operation, so that the setting can be guessed. It will become. As a result, there is an effect that the ball output rate can be improved as the number of games in the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) increases.

<Modification example>
In the above embodiment, when the replay combination 2L, 2C or 2R is internally won, the correct stop operation for winning the replay 2 is limited to the first stop operation (so-called three choices), but the present invention is not limited to this. The correct stop operation for winning a winning combination for giving a privilege may be the operation order from the first stop operation to the third stop operation (so-called 6 choices), and the timing of the suitable stop operation may be the correct answer. It may be a stop operation. When the timing of the suitable stop operation is the correct stop operation, the notification content of the push order pressing effect may be information regarding the operation position of the reel (for example, three choices of symbols).

Further, in the above embodiment, the privilege of the push order hitting effect is added to the number of RT3 games, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, it may be a privilege related to AT (for example, a lottery to shift to the AT state can be received with a high probability) when a small winning combination of push order is internally won during MB and a prize is won. Further, for example, when the re-game high probability state (RT3) ends when the number of medals paid out in the re-game high probability state (RT3) exceeds a predetermined number, the privilege is added to the predetermined number. It may be the number of medals. That is, as a privilege, it suffices as long as the period of favorable condition is longer and longer. Further, for example, when the fall avoidance navigation is executed even when the number of RT3 games is 0, the number of fall avoidance navigations executed when the number of RT3 games is 0 may be added as a privilege. Good.

Further, in the above embodiment, in the high probability state of the replay combination high probability state (RT3), if (1) the replay combination 2L, 2C or 2R is internally won and the replay 2 is won, the number of RT3 games is increased. It is granted (privileges are granted), (2) If the replay role 2L, 2C or 2R is internally won and the replay 3 is won, the number of RT3 games is not granted (the benefits are not granted). , Not limited to this. For example, in the case of (1) above, the number of first games (for example, 30 games) is given, and in the case of (2), the number of second games (for example, 5 games) less than the number of first games is given. You may. That is, when the condition for executing the push order effect is satisfied and the push order effect is executed, a large privilege is given when the correct answer is stopped, and a small privilege is given when the incorrect answer is stopped. You may try to do it.

Further, in the above embodiment, the re-game combination 3L, 3C, and 3R are each set as one internal winning combination, but the re-game 3 may be set as one internal winning combination. Then, the content of the stop operation may be determined using the avoidance navigation lottery table.

Further, in the fall avoidance navigation of the above embodiment, there is no bias in the operation content to be notified in the avoidance navigation lottery table (for example, when the re-game combination 4L is internally elected, the notification content with the first stop operation as the middle is set. 1/2, the notification content with the first stop operation on the right was set to 1/2), but a bias may be provided. As a result, it is possible to estimate the set value from the ease and difficulty of falling from the re-game combination high probability state (RT3) to the re-game combination low probability state (RT1).
