Today, it is desired to improve the interest of gaming machines equipped with operating means.
An object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine capable of improving the interest.

The gaming machine that solves the above problems is a gaming machine that can give a jackpot game after the end of the variable game in which the jackpot is won. An effect control means for controlling the execution means is provided, and the effect includes an effect game performed using an effect symbol, a special operation effect, and an operation promotion display for prompting the operation of the operation means. In the production game, if the jackpot is won, the jackpot result is finally derived, but if the jackpot is not won, the jackpot result is not finally derived. When the special operation promotion effect is executed, the operation promotion effect can be executed, and if the operation means is operated while the operation promotion display is being performed in the special operation promotion effect, the operation means The result of the special operation effect is derived, the operation promotion effect is completed, and the result of the special operation effect is a special result derived only when a big hit is won. There are non-special results that are derived regardless of whether the jackpot is won or not, and the non-special result is triggered by the operation of the operating means in the special operation effect. When derived, there are a first end mode and a second end mode when the operation promotion effect ends with the operation of the operation means as an opportunity, and the operation means in the special operation effect. When the non-special result is derived by the operation of the above, when the operation promotion effect is completed in the second end mode, compared with the case where the operation promotion effect is completed in the first end mode. The gist is that there is a high degree of expectation that the jackpot result will be finally derived in the production game.

Regarding the game machine, the operation promotion display includes a first operation promotion display and a second operation promotion display, and when the second operation promotion display is performed in the special operation effect, the operation promotion display is described. Compared to the case where the first operation promotion display is performed, the expectation that the special result is derived may be higher when the operation means is operated.

Regarding the gaming machine, the operation promotion display includes a first operation promotion display and a second operation promotion display, and when the first operation promotion display is performed in the special operation effect, the operation means. The end mode of the operation promotion effect when the special result is derived with the operation of the above is triggered by the operation of the operation means when the second operation promotion display is performed in the special operation effect. It may be the same as the end mode of the operation promotion effect when the special result is derived.

Regarding the game machine, the operation promotion display includes a first operation promotion display and a second operation promotion display, and the operation means is operated when the operation promotion display is performed in the special operation effect. When the predetermined time elapses without being performed, the result of the special operation effect is derived, the operation promotion effect ends, and the first operation promotion in the special operation effect is triggered by the elapse of the predetermined time. When the non-special result is derived without the operation means being operated while the display is being performed and the non-special result is derived, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends is the special mode. It is the same as the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the non-special result is derived by the operation of the operation means when the first operation promotion display is performed in the operation effect. In the special operation promotion effect, the operation promotion effect is performed when the non-special result is derived with the lapse of the predetermined time without operating the operation means when the second operation promotion display is performed. The end mode at the time of ending is that the operation promotion effect ends when the non-special result is derived triggered by the operation of the operation means when the second operation promotion display is performed in the special operation effect. It may be the same as the termination mode at the time of.

According to the present invention, it is possible to improve the interest.

The general winning opening is also called the ordinary winning opening.

Next, the gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine 10 will be described.
The pachinko gaming machine 10 has a low probability state and a high probability state as gaming states having different jackpot probabilities. The jackpot probability is the probability of winning a jackpot in a jackpot lottery. The high probability state is a gaming state in which the jackpot probability is higher than that in the low probability state. The high probability state is a so-called "probability fluctuation state (probability change state)", and the low probability state is a "non-probability fluctuation state (non-probability change state)". Hereinafter, the high-probability state is referred to as a “probability-changing state”, and the low-probability state is referred to as a “non-probability-changing state”.

Further, the pachinko gaming machine 10 has a low base state and a high base state as game states in which the ratio of the number of prize balls to the number of fired game balls is different. The high base state is a gaming state in which the probability that the game ball enters the second starting port 27 is higher than that in the low base state. The high base state is the so-called "electric support state", and the low base state is the "non-electric support state".

The high base state can be realized, for example, by performing a control of one arbitrarily selected from the three controls described below, or by performing a combination of a plurality of controls. The first control is a control for shortening the fluctuation time of the normal symbol, which shortens the fluctuation time of the normal game as compared with the case of the low base state. The second control is the probability fluctuation control of the ordinary symbol that changes the probability of winning the ordinary winning lottery (ordinary winning probability) with a higher probability than in the low base state. The third control is an opening time extension control that makes the total opening time of the first variable member 28 in one normal hit game longer than in the low base state. The opening time extension control includes a control that increases the number of times the first variable member 28 is opened in one normal hit game more than in the low base state, and one time of the first variable member 28 in the normal hit game. It is preferable to perform at least one of the controls for making the opening time of the above longer than that in the low base state. Further, the high base state may be realized by combining the fourth control described below. The fourth control is a control for shortening the fluctuation time of the special symbol, which makes it easier for the fluctuation time of the special game (for example, the average fluctuation time) to be shorter than in the low base state. When the fluctuation time shortening control of the special symbol is performed, the high base state becomes the so-called "variation time shortening state (variation shortening state)".

In the present embodiment, since the first variable member 28 may be in the open state even in the low base state, there is a possibility that the game ball may enter the second starting port 27 even in the low base state. There is. However, in the low base state, for example, the first variable member 28 is not opened in the low base state, for example, by configuring the lottery so as not to win the normal winning lottery, and the game is played in the second starting port 27. It may be configured so that the ball does not enter. In addition, when the base is in a low base state, for example, the first variable member 28 is configured so as not to be in the open state even if the normal winning lottery is won, so that the game ball does not enter the second starting port 27. It may be configured as. In the case of the above configuration, the low base state means that the game ball cannot enter the second starting port 27, and the high base state means that the game ball can enter the second starting port 27. I can say.

The gaming state (type of gaming state) includes a non-probability state and a low base state, a non-probability state and a high base state, and a probabilistic state and a low base state. There is a certain gaming state and a gaming state which is a probabilistic state and is a high base state. Then, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is controlled to one of a plurality of types of gaming states. In the present embodiment, as a general rule, there are a gaming state that is a non-probable change state and a low base state, a gaming state that is a non-probable change state and is a high base state, and a probable change state and a high base state. It is controlled to a gaming state and one of the gaming states.

Next, the jackpot in the pachinko gaming machine 10 will be described.
The pachinko gaming machine 10 includes a plurality of types of jackpot symbols as jackpot symbols of special symbols. The plurality of types of jackpot symbols are classified into a first jackpot symbol and a second jackpot symbol. Each type of jackpot is defined for each of the plurality of types of jackpot symbols. The jackpot symbol may define the game state after the jackpot game is completed. In the jackpot game, first, an opening effect is performed to notify the start of the jackpot game over a predetermined opening period. In the big hit game, a round game is performed in which the big winning opening 29 is opened after the opening production is completed. The round game is performed up to a predetermined maximum number of times. In one round game, the large winning opening 29 is until the first round end condition in which a predetermined upper limit number of game balls enters or the second round end condition in which the predetermined upper limit time elapses is satisfied. It will be open for a while. In the round game, a round effect is performed. Then, in the jackpot game, when the final round game is completed, an ending effect is performed to notify the end of the jackpot game over a predetermined ending period. The jackpot game ends with the end of the ending effect.

In the jackpot symbols classified into the first jackpot symbol, "first jackpot" is defined as the type of jackpot. For the jackpot symbols classified as the first jackpot symbol, "10 times" is set as the maximum number of round games. The jackpot symbol classified into the first jackpot symbol is defined to be in a probabilistic state as the game state after the end of the jackpot game. The jackpot symbol classified into the first jackpot symbol is defined to have a high base state as the gaming state after the end of the jackpot game. In the jackpot symbols classified into the second jackpot symbol, "second jackpot" is defined as the type of jackpot. For the jackpot symbols classified as the second jackpot symbol, "8 times" is set as the maximum number of round games. The jackpot symbol classified into the second jackpot symbol is defined to be in a non-probability changing state as the gaming state after the end of the jackpot game. In addition, the jackpot symbol classified as the second jackpot symbol has a jackpot as a game state after the end of the jackpot game until the end of 100 special games or before the end of 100 special games. It is stipulated that the base state will be high until the game is granted.

Further, in the display effect that can be executed by the effect display device 25 in the present embodiment, the effect symbols (hereinafter referred to as effect symbols) are variably displayed in a plurality of columns, and finally the combination of the effect symbols is fixedly stopped and displayed. There is a production pattern variation game (hereinafter referred to as a production game) to be performed. In the production game, a plurality of rows of production symbols are fluctuated and executed. The effect pattern is a pattern that is decorated with characters, patterns, etc., and is for diversifying the display effect, and is also called a "decorative pattern" or a "decorative pattern". The effect game in the present embodiment is performed by displaying (scrolling) the symbol rows of the first row, the second row, and the third row in the vertical direction. The effect symbols in the first row are so-called first symbols, the effect symbols in the second row are so-called second symbols, and the effect symbols in the third row are so-called third symbols. In the following description, the "first column" is referred to as the "left column", the "first symbol" is indicated as the "left symbol", the "second column" is indicated as the "middle column", and the "second symbol" is referred to as the "second symbol". The "middle symbol" is indicated, the "third column" is indicated as the "right column", and the "third symbol" is indicated as the "right symbol". In each column, in principle, the effect symbols imitating the numbers [1] to [8] are displayed in a variable order in a predetermined order. As described above, in the present embodiment, there is a production game in which the production is performed by using the production symbol.

The production game is performed in conjunction with the special game. Specifically, the production game starts with the start of the special game and ends with the end of the special game. As described above, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is configured to be able to execute the production game during the execution of the special game. Then, in the production game, the combination of the production symbols corresponding to the special symbols displayed in the special game is fixedly stopped and displayed. When the jackpot symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed in the special game, the jackpot symbol by the directed symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed in the directed game. Further, in the special game, when the out-of-order symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed, in the effect game, the out-of-order symbol by the effect symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed. In this way, in the production game, when the jackpot is won, the jackpot symbol by the production symbol is finally displayed as a fixed stop, and the jackpot result is derived. On the other hand, in the production game, if the jackpot is not won, the jackpot symbol by the production symbol is not finally displayed as a fixed stop, and the jackpot result is not derived. That is, in the present embodiment, in the production game, if the jackpot is won, the jackpot result is finally derived, but if the jackpot is not won, the jackpot result is not finally derived.

For example, the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is a combination of symbols such as "777" in which the effect symbols in all rows are the same. For example, the out-of-order symbols due to the effect symbols are a combination of symbols such as "323", "112", and [426] in which at least a part of the effect symbols in a row is different from the effect symbols in the other row. In the production game, the production symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed before the final stop display is displayed. In the present specification, the "temporary stop display" means a state indicating that the symbol may be displayed in a fluctuating manner again, such as a "swaying fluctuation state", or a state indicating that the symbol is different from the fixed stop display. ..

In the production game, a reach may be formed and a reach production may be performed. In the present embodiment, the effect symbols imitating the same number are temporarily stopped and displayed in a specific column (in the present embodiment, the left column and the right column) among the plurality of columns, and a column different from the specific column. The state in which the effect symbols (in the middle row in the present embodiment) are continuously displayed in a variable manner corresponds to the state in which the reach is formed. As the reach effect, for example, there may be a plurality of types of reach effects in which the movements of the characters to appear and the effect symbols are different. The reach effect in the present embodiment includes a normal reach effect and a super reach effect performed after the start of the normal reach effect. The super reach effect is executed, for example, with a content that develops the effect content of the normal reach effect. In the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the super reach effect is executed, the jackpot expectation of the special game being executed is higher than when only the normal reach effect is executed.

The super reach effect of this embodiment is developed with the content that the first character, which is the main character, and the second character, which is the enemy, confront each other. Then, in the present embodiment, only when the jackpot is won, the result that the first character wins in the confrontation between the first character and the second character is derived, and the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed. In some cases. In addition, in the present embodiment, the result that the first character is defeated in the confrontation between the first character and the second character is derived regardless of whether the jackpot is won or not. The out-of-order symbol due to the effect symbol may be temporarily stopped and displayed. However, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the jackpot is won, if the out-of-order symbol due to the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed in the super reach effect, then the effect display device 25 executes the revival effect. In the revival effect, the first character appears, attacks the missed symbol by the effect symbol that is temporarily stopped and displayed, changes the effect symbol that is temporarily stopped and displayed to the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol, and the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol.

The main ROM 40b stores a main control program and a lottery table used for a predetermined lottery. The main ROM 40b stores a jackpot determination value used in the jackpot lottery. The jackpot determination value includes a jackpot determination value used for the jackpot lottery in the probabilistic state and a jackpot determination value used for the jackpot lottery in the non-probability variation state. Some of the jackpot judgment values used in the jackpot lottery in the probabilistic state and the jackpot judgment value used in the jackpot lottery in the non-probability change state may be the same, or all may be different values. There may be. Further, the main ROM 40b stores the effect determination value used for the effect lottery. The production lottery is a lottery that determines whether to execute the reach production when the jackpot lottery is not won, and corresponds to the reach lottery.

Further, the main ROM 40b stores a plurality of types of fluctuation patterns. The plurality of types of fluctuation patterns are associated with the fluctuation time from the start of the special game to the end of the special game. That is, the fluctuation pattern is associated with the fluctuation time of the special game. Therefore, the fluctuation pattern can be said to be information that can specify the fluctuation time of the special game. In the pachinko gaming machine 10, the fluctuation time of the special game is determined by determining the fluctuation pattern.

(Hereinafter referred to as input judgment). If the determination result of the input determination is negative, the main CPU 40a ends the special symbol input process. On the other hand, when the determination result of the input determination is affirmative, the main CPU 40a determines whether the special hold number stored in the main RWM40c is less than the upper limit number (hereinafter, referred to as a hold determination). If the determination result of the hold determination is negative, the main CPU 40a ends the special symbol input process. If the determination result of the hold determination is affirmative, the main CPU 40a adds 1 to the special hold number and updates it. Further, the main CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so as to display the updated special hold number. Further, the main CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a hold number command) capable of specifying the updated special hold number in the output buffer. The control information (command) stored in the output buffer is output to the sub-board 41 in the next and subsequent interrupt processes. When the determination result of the hold determination is affirmative, the main CPU 40a acquires the random numbers generated in the main board 40, stores the random number information based on the acquired random numbers in the main RWM40c, and ends the special symbol input process. At this time, the main CPU 40a stores the random number information for the special game so that the storage order of the random number information can be specified. In the present embodiment, the random number information for the special game is stored in the main RWM40c, so that the execution is suspended until the execution condition of the special game is satisfied.

The random number information stored in the main RWM40c in the special symbol input process may be the acquired random number itself, or may be information obtained by processing the random number by a predetermined method. The random numbers acquired in the special symbol input process are, for example, random numbers used for the jackpot lottery (hereinafter referred to as jackpot judgment random numbers), random numbers used for determining the special symbol (hereinafter referred to as special symbol random numbers), and fluctuation patterns. Random numbers to be used (hereinafter referred to as fluctuation pattern determination random numbers), random numbers used for the effect lottery (hereinafter referred to as effect determination random numbers), and the like.

In the execution determination, the main CPU 40a makes an affirmative determination when it is not in the jackpot game, in the special game, or in the interval between fluctuations. On the other hand, in the execution determination, the main CPU 40a makes a negative determination when any of the big hit game, the special game, and the interval between fluctuations. When the determination result of the execution determination is negative (when the execution condition of the special game is not satisfied), the main CPU 40a ends the special symbol start process.

On the other hand, when the determination result of the execution determination is affirmative (when the execution condition of the special game is satisfied), the main CPU 40a determines whether the number of special reservations stored in the main RWM 40c is 1 or more. Then, when the number of special holds is not 1 or more, the main CPU 40a stores a wait command that can identify the standby state in the output buffer, and ends the special symbol start process. On the other hand, when the number of special reservations is 1 or more, the main CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the number of special reservations stored in the main RWM40c to update. The main CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated special hold number is displayed. Further, the main CPU 40a stores in the output buffer a hold number command capable of specifying the special hold number after the update.

Subsequently, the main CPU 40a reads out the first stored random number information from the main RWM40c among the random number information for the special game. When the main CPU 40a reads out the earliest random number information, the first random number information is erased from the main RWM40c. Then, the main CPU 40a performs a big hit lottery based on the read random number information and the big hit determination value stored in the main ROM 40b. The jackpot determination value used in the jackpot lottery differs at least in part between the probabilistic state and the non-probability change state. After finishing the jackpot lottery, the main CPU 40a determines a special symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the special game, and a fluctuation pattern. Specifically, when the jackpot lottery is won, the main CPU 40a determines the jackpot symbol based on the value of the special symbol random number, and determines the jackpot fluctuation pattern based on the value of the variation pattern determination random number. On the other hand, when the big hit lottery is not won, the main CPU 40a performs the effect lottery based on the value of the effect determination random number. When the effect lottery is won, the main CPU 40a determines the outlier symbol, and determines the outlier reach variation pattern based on the value of the variation pattern determination random number. On the other hand, when the effect lottery is not won, the main CPU 40a determines the out-of-order symbol and determines the out-of-reach-less variation pattern based on the value of the variation pattern determination random number.

Specifically, the main CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the special game is started. The main CPU 40a measures the fluctuation time associated with the fluctuation pattern determined in the special symbol start processing. Then, the main CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that when the fluctuation time associated with the fluctuation pattern elapses, the special symbol determined in the special symbol start processing is fixedly stopped and displayed. Further, when the fluctuation time associated with the fluctuation pattern determined in the special symbol start processing elapses, the main CPU 40a stores an end command for displaying a fixed stop display of the symbol combination by the effect symbol in the output buffer. Further, the main CPU 40a sets an interval between fluctuations (for example, 2 seconds) after the special symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed, that is, after the end of the special game. In the interval between fluctuations, the special symbol that has been fixedly stopped and displayed with the end of the special game continues to be fixedly stopped and displayed.

Next, the jackpot processing performed by the main CPU 40a will be described.
The main CPU 40a specifies the type of jackpot game based on the jackpot symbol determined in the special symbol start process. Then, after the end of the big hit special game, the main CPU 40a starts the control of giving the specified big hit game. Specifically, the main CPU 40a starts the control of giving the jackpot game after the end of the jackpot special game and after the interval between fluctuations elapses. The main CPU 40a grants a jackpot game by executing a jackpot process. In this way, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the jackpot game is given after winning the jackpot.

When the big hit special game ends, the main CPU 40a stores the opening command in the output buffer. Further, when the main CPU 40a stores the opening command in the output buffer, the main CPU 40a clocks the opening time. Further, when the opening time elapses, the main CPU 40a performs a process for executing the round game. That is, the main CPU 40a controls the second actuator A2 so as to open the big winning opening 29 according to the opening mode (opening pattern) set for the big hit game, and starts the round game. After starting the round game, the main CPU 40a controls the second actuator A2 so that the large winning opening 29 is closed when the first round end condition or the second round end condition is satisfied, and ends the round game. .. The main CPU 40a repeats the process for executing the round game until the maximum number of round games specified in the jackpot game is completed. Further, the main CPU 40a stores the round command in the output buffer each time the round game is started. Further, the main CPU 40a stores the ending command in the output buffer when the final round game is completed. When the main CPU 40a stores the ending command in the output buffer, the main CPU 40a clocks the ending time. Then, when the ending time elapses, the main CPU 40a ends the jackpot game.

Next, the game state processing performed by the main CPU 40a will be described.
The main CPU 40a specifies the gaming state after the jackpot game ends based on the jackpot symbol (that is, the type of jackpot) determined in the special symbol start processing. When the main CPU 40a specifies to control to the non-probability change state, a value that can be specified to control to the non-probability change state is set in the probability state flag stored in the main RWM40c with the end of the big hit game. .. Further, the main CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a low probability state command) that can identify the non-probability change state in the output buffer. Further, when the main CPU 40a specifies that the probability change state is to be controlled, the probability state flag is set to a value that can be specified to be controlled to the probability change state with the end of the big hit game. Further, the main CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a high probability state command) that can identify the probabilistic state in the output buffer.

When the main CPU 40a specifies that the control to the high base state is specified, a value that can be specified to control the high base state is set in the base state flag with the end of the big hit game. Further, the main CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a high base state command) that can identify the high base state in the output buffer. The main CPU 40a stores "100 times" corresponding to the upper limit number of times of the special game controlled to the high base state in the main RWM 40c as the remaining number of times of the special game controlled to the high base state. Each time the special game is executed, the main CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the "remaining number of times of the special game controlled to the high base state" stored in the main RWM40c. When the "remaining number of special games controlled to the high base state" becomes 0, the main CPU 40a becomes low with the end of the special game in which the "remaining number of special games controlled to the high base state" becomes 0. Set the base state flag to a value that can be identified as controlling the base state. That is, the main CPU 40a terminates the high base state and shifts to the low base state. Further, the main CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a low base state command) that can identify the low base state in the output buffer.

In addition, when the big hit game is given, the main CPU 40a sets a value that can be specified to be controlled to the non-probability change state in the probability state flag, and sets a value that can be specified to control to the low base state as the base state. Set to flag. Further, the main CPU 40a stores the low probability state command in the output buffer and stores the low base state command in the output buffer.

Next, the normal symbol input process performed by the main CPU 40a will be described.
The main CPU 40a determines whether the game ball has passed (entered) the gate 31 based on whether the detection signal is input from the gate sensor SE4. When the game ball has not passed through the gate 31, the main CPU 40a ends the normal symbol input process. On the other hand, when the game ball passes through the gate 31, the main CPU 40a determines whether the normal hold number stored in the main RWM 40c is less than the upper limit number. When the normal hold number is not less than the upper limit number, the main CPU 40a ends the normal symbol input process. When the normal hold number is less than the upper limit number, the main CPU 40a updates by adding 1 to the normal hold number stored in the main RWM40c. In this case, the main CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so as to display the updated normal hold number. Further, the main CPU 40a stores a normal hold number command capable of specifying the updated normal hold number in the output buffer. Next, the main CPU 40a acquires the random numbers generated in the main board 40, and stores the random number information based on the acquired random numbers in the main RWM40c. In this case, the main CPU 40a stores the random number information for a normal game so that the storage order of the random number information can be specified. After that, the main CPU 40a ends the normal symbol input process.

Next, the normal symbol start processing performed by the main CPU 40a will be described.
The main CPU 40a determines whether or not the execution conditions of the normal game are satisfied. The main CPU 40a makes an affirmative determination when neither the normal hit game nor the normal game is in progress, while the main CPU 40a makes a negative judgment when the normal hit game is in progress or the normal game is in progress. If the execution condition of the normal game is not satisfied, the main CPU 40a ends the normal symbol start process. On the other hand, when the execution condition of the normal game is satisfied, the main CPU 40a determines whether the normal hold number stored in the main RWM 40c is 1 or more. When the normal number of pending numbers is not 1 or more, the main CPU 40a ends the normal symbol start process. When the normal hold number is 1 or more, the main CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the normal hold number stored in the main RWM 40c to update. Further, the main CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated normal hold number is displayed. The main CPU 40a stores in the output buffer a normal hold number command that can specify the normal hold number after the update. Next, the main CPU 40a reads out the first stored random number information from the main RWM40c among the random number information for the normal game. When the main CPU 40a reads out the earliest random number information, the first random number information is erased from the main RWM40c. Subsequently, the main CPU 40a performs a normal hit lottery based on the read random number information and the normal hit determination value stored in the main ROM 40b. Then, the main CPU 40a determines the normal symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the normal game and the fluctuation time of the normal game based on the lottery result of the normal winning lottery. After that, the main CPU 40a ends the normal symbol start process.

Then, the main CPU 40a executes a normal game by performing a process different from the normal symbol start process. Specifically, the main CPU 40a starts the normal game, and when the fluctuation time determined in the normal symbol start process elapses, the information display is performed so that the normal symbol determined in the normal symbol start process is fixedly stopped and displayed. Control the panel 22. Further, the main CPU 40a stores in the output buffer control information that can identify that the execution of the normal game is started when the execution of the normal game is started.

Next, the normal hit processing performed by the main CPU 40a will be described.
When the normal winning lottery is won, the main CPU 40a determines the opening pattern of the second starting port 27 when the normal game ends, and the first actuator so that the second starting port 27 is opened according to the opening pattern. Control A1. In the present embodiment, it is easier to win the ordinary winning lottery when the high base state is used than when the low base state is used. The pachinko gaming machine 10 is configured so that the normal winning lottery can be won even in the low base state, and when the normal winning lottery is won, the first variable member 28 is in the open state. Become. Therefore, in the present embodiment, it is more difficult for the game ball to enter the second starting port 27 than in the high base state, but the game ball enters the second starting port 27. There is a possibility of a ball.

Next, various processes executed by the sub CPU 41a based on the control program will be described.
When the sub CPU 41a inputs a low probability state command, the sub CPU 41a sets a value that can be identified as a non-probability change state in the probability state flag stored in the sub RWM 41c. When the sub CPU 41a inputs a high probability state command, the sub CPU 41a sets a value that can identify the probability change state in the probability state flag stored in the sub RWM 41c. The sub CPU 41a can specify whether or not it is in the probabilistic state by referring to the probability state flag of the sub RWM 41c. Further, when the sub CPU 41a inputs a low base state command, the sub CPU 41a sets a value that can identify the low base state in the base state flag stored in the sub RWM 41c. When the sub CPU 41a inputs a high base state command, the sub CPU 41a sets a value that can identify the high base state in the base state flag stored in the sub RWM 41c. The sub CPU 41a can identify whether it is in a high base state by referring to the base state flag of the sub RWM 41c.

The sub CPU 41a controls at least one of the decorative lamp 17, the speaker 18, and the effect display device 25 so that the jackpot effect is performed during the jackpot game. Specifically, the sub CPU 41a controls at least one of the decorative lamp 17, the speaker 18, and the effect display device 25 so that the opening effect is performed when the opening command is input. Further, the sub CPU 41a controls at least one of the decorative lamp 17, the speaker 18, and the effect display device 25 so that the round effect is performed when a round command is input. Further, the sub CPU 41a controls at least one of the decorative lamp 17, the speaker 18, and the effect display device 25 so that the ending effect is performed when the ending command is input. The content of the jackpot effect may be different depending on the type of jackpot.

Further, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the effect game is played. Specifically, the sub CPU 41a controls to execute the effect game when the symbol command and the variation pattern designation command are input. Based on the variation pattern designation command and the symbol command, the sub CPU 41a determines the symbol combination according to the effect symbol that is finally fixedly stopped and displayed in the effect game. When the sub CPU 41a specifies the jackpot symbol from the input symbol command, the sub CPU 41a determines the jackpot symbol combination by the effect symbol. When the sub CPU 41a specifies a symbol that is out of line with the input symbol command, the sub CPU 41a determines a combination of symbols that are out of line with the effect symbol. For example, when the sub CPU 41a specifies a variation pattern with reach from the input variation pattern specification command, the sub CPU 41a determines a combination of outlier symbols including reach. On the other hand, when the sub CPU 41a specifies the non-reach variation pattern from the input variation pattern designation command, the sub CPU 41a determines the outlier symbol combination that does not include the reach.

Further, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the effect symbol is variablely displayed when the variation pattern designation command is input. That is, the sub CPU 41a starts the production game. Then, the sub CPU 41a temporarily stops and displays the symbol combination according to the determined effect symbol at a predetermined timing. After that, the sub CPU 41a displays the symbol combination by the effect symbol as a fixed stop display when the end command is input. The sub CPU 41a may time the fluctuation time that can be specified from the fluctuation pattern, and display the symbol combination as a fixed stop display when the fluctuation time elapses, regardless of the end command. In this case, the end command may be omitted.

As described above, in the present embodiment, there are a plurality of types of results having different expectations for advantageous development as the result of the specific operation effect. In the pachinko gaming machine 10, if the first button BT1 is not operated within the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect and the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect ends, the result of the comment notice effect is not derived. The comment notice production ends. That is, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, if the first button BT1 is not operated in the comment notice effect and the time required for the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect elapses, the result of the comment notice effect is not derived and the comment notice effect is produced.

Here, the control related to the execution of various effects will be described.
First, the control related to the comment notice effect as the specific operation effect will be described.
When the sub CPU 41a inputs the variation pattern designation command, the sub CPU 41a performs an execution lottery to determine whether to execute the comment notice effect. The probability that the comment notice effect will be decided to be executed in the execution lottery related to the comment notice effect may be different depending on the type of the determined variation pattern. Then, if it is not decided to execute the comment notice effect in the execution lottery related to the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a does not execute the comment notice effect. On the other hand, when it is decided to execute the comment notice effect in the execution lottery related to the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a causes the comment notice effect to be executed.

When executing the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a determines the type of operation promotion display in the comment notice effect. At this time, when the jackpot fluctuation pattern is specified, the sub CPU 41a is more likely to determine the red button operation promotion display than when the missed fluctuation pattern is specified. As a result, in the comment notice effect, when the red button operation promotion display is performed, the jackpot expectation can be made higher than when the blue button operation promotion display is performed.

Further, when executing the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to display the serif frame image SG. Then, when it is decided to perform the blue button operation promotion display in the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to start the operation promotion effect in the blue effect start mode. At this time, the sub CPU 41a controls the speaker 18 so as to output the blue start sound. After that, the sub CPU 41a is directed to perform the blue button operation promotion display until the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect elapses or until the first button BT1 is operated before the operation valid period elapses. The display device 25 is controlled. Further, while the blue button operation promotion display is being performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the button light emitting body BT1a so as to emit blue light.

Similarly, when it is decided to perform the red button operation promotion display in the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to start the operation promotion effect in the red effect start mode. At this time, the sub CPU 41a controls the speaker 18 so as to output the red start sound. After that, the sub CPU 41a directs the red button operation promotion display until the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect elapses or until the first button BT1 is operated before the operation valid period elapses. The display device 25 is controlled. Further, while the red button operation promotion display is being performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the button light emitting body BT1a so as to emit red light.

Further, when the detection signal from the first button BT1 is input within the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect (when the operation promotion display is being performed), the sub CPU 41a displays the effect so that the operation promotion effect ends. Control the device 25. Specifically, when the blue button operation promotion display is being performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the immediate end mode. On the other hand, when the red button operation promotion display is being performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the destruction operation end mode. As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the control for ending the operation promotion effect differs depending on the operation promotion display performed in the comment notice effect.

Further, when the detection signal from the first button BT1 is input within the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a determines the result to be derived in the comment notice effect. At this time, the sub CPU 41a determines the result of the comment notice effect based on the type of operation promotion display and the type of variation pattern. In the present embodiment, in a situation where the same fluctuation pattern is specified, the sub CPU 41a expects a big hit when the red button operation promotion display is performed, as compared with the case where the blue button operation promotion display is performed. It is easy to determine a result with a high degree (a result with a high degree of expectation that it will be developed advantageously). As a result, when the red button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect, the first button BT1 is operated as compared with the case where the blue button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect. The result of the comment notice effect derived as is high in expectation that the big hit expectation is high. Further, in the situation where the blue button operation promotion display is performed, when the jackpot fluctuation pattern is specified, the sub CPU 41a gives a result with a higher expectation of jackpot than when the missed fluctuation pattern is specified. Easy to decide. Similarly, in the situation where the red button operation promotion display is performed, the sub CPU 41a has a higher expectation of big hit when the big hit fluctuation pattern is specified than when the out-of-order fluctuation pattern is specified. Is easy to determine. Therefore, regardless of whether the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display is performed, it is possible to infer whether the jackpot expectation is high or low from the result of the comment notice effect.

When the detection signal from the first button BT1 is input within the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a displays the character information according to the result of the determined comment notice effect on the dialogue frame image SG, and the comment notice is given. The effect display device 25 is controlled so as to derive the effect result. After deriving the result of the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the serif frame image SG is erased and the comment notice effect ends with the end of the comment notice effect.

On the other hand, if the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect ends without inputting the detection signal from the first button BT1 within the operation valid period related to the comment notice effect, the sub CPU 41a causes the operation promotion effect to end. The effect display device 25 is controlled. Specifically, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the fade end mode. At this time, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the fade end mode regardless of whether the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display is performed. ..

Next, the control related to the appearance effect as the non-specific operation effect will be described.
When the sub CPU 41a inputs the variation pattern designation command, the sub CPU 41a performs an execution lottery for determining whether to execute the appearance effect. The probability that the appearance effect is determined to be executed in the execution lottery related to the appearance effect may be different depending on the type of the determined variation pattern. Then, if it is not decided to execute the appearance effect in the execution lottery related to the appearance effect, the sub CPU 41a does not execute the appearance effect. On the other hand, when it is decided to execute the appearance effect in the execution lottery related to the appearance effect, the sub CPU 41a causes the appearance effect to be executed. When executing the appearance effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to display the human figure image Sa. Then, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to start the operation promotion effect in the special effect start mode. At this time, the sub CPU 41a controls the speaker 18 so as to output a special start sound. After that, the sub CPU 41a displays the effect so as to perform the special button operation promotion display until the operation valid period related to the appearance effect elapses or until the second button BT2 is operated before the operation valid period elapses. Control the device 25.

Further, when the detection signal from the second button BT2 is input within the operation valid period related to the appearance effect (when the operation promotion display is being performed), the sub CPU 41a causes the effect display device to end the operation promotion effect. 25 is controlled. Specifically, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the smoke end mode.

Further, when the detection signal from the second button BT2 is input within the operation valid period related to the appearance effect, the sub CPU 41a determines the result to be derived in the appearance effect. At this time, the sub CPU 41a determines the result of the appearance effect based on the type of the variation pattern. In the present embodiment, when the jackpot fluctuation pattern is specified, the sub CPU 41a has a higher expectation of jackpot than when the missed fluctuation pattern is designated (expectation for advantageous development). Is high result) is easy to determine. When the detection signal from the second button BT2 is input within the operation valid period related to the appearance effect, the sub CPU 41a displays the appearance image Sb according to the result of the determined appearance effect and derives the result of the appearance effect. Controls the effect display device 25. After deriving the result of the appearance effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the appearance image Sb is erased and the appearance effect ends with the end of the appearance effect.

On the other hand, if the operation valid period related to the appearance effect ends without inputting the detection signal from the second button BT2 within the operation valid period related to the appearance effect, the sub CPU 41a displays the effect so that the operation promotion effect ends. Control the device 25. Specifically, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the fade end mode.

Next, the control related to the operation effect during reach as a special operation effect will be described.
When any of the variation patterns HP3, HP5, and HP6 associated with the execution of the super reach effect is specified by the variation pattern specification command, the sub CPU 41a performs the execution of the super reach effect at a predetermined timing during execution. , Execute the operation effect during reach.

When the operation promotion effect during reach is executed, the sub CPU 41a determines the type of operation promotion display in the operation effect during reach. At this time, the sub CPU 41a determines the red button operation promotion display when the fluctuation patterns HP5 and HP6 which are the jackpot fluctuation patterns are specified, as compared with the case where the fluctuation pattern HP3 which is the out-of-order fluctuation pattern is designated. Easy to do. In particular, when the variation pattern HP6 is specified, the sub CPU 41a is more likely to determine the red button operation promotion display than when the variation pattern HP3, which is an out-of-range variation pattern, is specified. During the execution of the special game based on the variation pattern HP6, the super reach effect is executed, and in the super reach effect, the result that the first character is defeated in the confrontation between the first character and the second character is derived, and then the resurrection effect is performed. Is executed, and finally the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is confirmed and stopped and displayed. During the execution of the special game based on the fluctuation pattern HP3, the super reach effect is executed, and in the super reach effect, the result that the first character is defeated in the confrontation between the first character and the second character is derived, and then the revival effect is executed. Finally, the out-of-order symbol due to the effect symbol is displayed as a fixed stop. As a result, when the defeat result is derived by the operation of the first button BT1 in the operation effect during reach, when the operation promotion effect ends in the crack end mode, when the operation promotion effect ends in the monochrome end mode. In comparison, in the production game, it can be configured so that the expectation that the jackpot symbol by the production symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed is high.

Further, when the fluctuation pattern HP5 is specified, the sub CPU 41a is easier to determine the red button operation promotion display than when the fluctuation pattern HP6 is specified. As a result, when the red button operation promotion display is performed in the reach operation promotion, the victory is triggered by the operation of the first button BT1 as compared with the case where the blue button operation promotion display is performed. It can be configured to increase the expectation that the result will be derived. Then, in the reach operation promotion, when the red button operation promotion display is performed, the jackpot expectation can be set higher than when the blue button operation promotion display is performed. As a result, when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect, the jackpot expectation is higher than when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode in the reach operation effect. Can be configured in. As described above, as a result, the jackpot expectation when the red button operation promotion display is performed is made higher than the jackpot expectation when the blue button operation promotion display is performed, so that the operation effect during reach can be achieved. When the defeat result is derived by the operation of the first button BT1, when the operation promotion effect is completed in the crack end mode, the effect game is compared with the case where the operation promotion effect is completed in the monochrome end mode. It can be said that it can be configured so that the degree of expectation that the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed is high in the end.

When it is determined to perform the blue button operation promotion display in the operation promotion effect during reach, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to start the operation promotion effect in the blue effect start mode. At this time, the sub CPU 41a controls the speaker 18 so as to output the blue start sound. After that, the sub CPU 41a so as to perform the blue button operation promotion display until the operation valid period related to the operation effect during reach elapses or until the first button BT1 is operated before the operation valid period elapses. The effect display device 25 is controlled. Further, while the blue button operation promotion display is being performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the button light emitting body BT1a so as to emit blue light. Similarly, when it is determined to perform the red button operation promotion display in the operation promotion effect during reach, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to start the operation promotion effect in the red effect start mode. At this time, the sub CPU 41a controls the speaker 18 so as to output the red start sound. After that, the sub CPU 41a so as to perform the red button operation promotion display until the operation valid period related to the operation effect during reach elapses or until the first button BT1 is operated before the operation valid period elapses. The effect display device 25 is controlled. Further, while the red button operation promotion display is being performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the button light emitting body BT1a so as to emit red light.

Further, when the detection signal from the first button BT1 is input within the operation valid period (when the operation promotion display is being performed) related to the operation promotion effect during reach, the sub CPU 41a directs the operation promotion effect to end. The display device 25 is controlled. Specifically, when the blue button operation promotion display is being performed and the special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a performs the operation promotion effect in the monochrome end mode. The effect display device 25 is controlled so as to end. Further, when the red button operation promotion display is being performed and the special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a ends the operation promotion effect in the crack end mode. The effect display device 25 is controlled in this way. As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is being executed, the operation promotion effect is terminated according to the operation promotion display performed in the operation promotion during the reach. Control is different. Further, when the special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to derive the defeat result.

After deriving the result of the operation effect during reach, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to erase the result of the operation effect during reach with the end of the super reach effect.

However, when a special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP6 is being executed, after the super reach effect is completed (after the defeat result is derived and the out-of-order symbol due to the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed), the sub CPU 41a The effect display device 25 is controlled so as to execute the revival effect. As a result, the symbol combination by the effect symbol that is temporarily stopped and displayed is changed from the missed symbol by the effect symbol to the jackpot symbol, and finally the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is fixedly stopped and displayed. On the other hand, during the execution of the special game based on the variation pattern HP3, the revival effect is not executed after the end of the super reach effect, so that the missed symbol due to the effect symbol that has been temporarily stopped is displayed as a fixed stop as it is.

Further, when the special game based on the variation pattern HP5 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the monochrome end mode. At this time, regardless of whether the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display is performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the monochrome end mode. .. As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the special game based on the fluctuation pattern HP5 is being executed, the control for ending the operation promotion effect is common regardless of the operation promotion display performed in the operation promotion during the reach. There is. Further, when the special game based on the variation pattern HP5 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to derive the winning result. Then, when the special game based on the variation pattern HP5 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to temporarily stop and display the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol.

Further, if the operation valid period related to the reach operation effect ends without inputting the detection signal from the first button BT1 within the operation valid period related to the reach operation effect, the sub CPU 41a ends the operation promotion effect. The effect display device 25 is controlled in this way. Specifically, when the blue button operation promotion display is being performed and the special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a performs the operation promotion effect in the monochrome end mode. The effect display device 25 is controlled so as to end. Further, when the red button operation promotion display is being performed and the special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a ends the operation promotion effect in the crack end mode. The effect display device 25 is controlled in this way. Further, when the special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to derive the defeat result. Then, when the special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to temporarily stop and display the out-of-order symbol due to the effect symbol. However, when a special game based on any of the fluctuation patterns HP6 is being executed, after the super reach effect is completed (after the defeat result is derived and the out-of-order symbol due to the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed), the sub CPU 41a The effect display device 25 is controlled so as to execute the revival effect. Further, when the special game based on the variation pattern HP5 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the monochrome end mode. At this time, regardless of whether the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display is performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the monochrome end mode. .. Further, when the special game based on the variation pattern HP5 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to derive the winning result. Then, when the special game based on the variation pattern HP5 is being executed, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to temporarily stop and display the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol.

However, when the first button BT1 is operated within the operation valid period related to the reach operation effect, the operation valid period ends without operating the first button BT1 within the operation valid period related to the reach operation effect. At an earlier timing than the time, the operation promotion effect is completed in the immediate end mode, and the victory result is derived.

Hereinafter, the effects of this embodiment will be described.
(1-1) The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the blue button operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect, and red in the comment notice effect. The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the button operation promotion display is being performed is different. As a result, in addition to the pleasure of operating the first button BT1 when the operation promotion display is being performed, attention is paid to how the operation promotion effect ends by operating the first button BT1. It can give fun and improve the interest.

(1-2) Start mode when the operation promotion effect in which the blue button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect starts, and start when the operation promotion effect in which the red button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect starts. The aspect was different. As a result, it is possible to give fun to pay attention to how the operation promotion effect starts and to improve the interest.

(1-3) The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect, and the operation promotion effect in the appearance effect. The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the operation is being performed is different. In this way, the comment notice effect and the appearance effect are not limited to the difference as the effect, but also the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the operation means is operated while the operation promotion display is being performed. By creating a difference, it is possible to more effectively enjoy the variation of the production that encourages the operation of the operating means and improve the interest.

(1-4) When the red button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect, the first button BT1 is operated as compared with the case where the blue button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect. There is a high degree of expectation that the result of the comment notice effect derived from the above will be developed advantageously. Then, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the blue button operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect, and the red button operation promotion in the comment notice effect. The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the display is being performed is different. As a result, even if the first button BT1 is operated before confirming the type of the operation promotion display, it is possible to confirm from the end mode of the operation promotion effect. Therefore, the need to carefully check the type of operation promotion display is reduced, and the first button BT1 can be positively operated after the operation promotion display is performed. For example, the type of operation promotion display should be carefully checked. It is possible to suppress the occurrence of an event such as the inability to operate the first button BT1 due to excessive confirmation. As described above, it is possible to entertain the effect of actively operating the operating means and effectively improve the interest.

(1-5) The light emitting mode of the button light emitter BT1a built in the first button BT1 was different depending on which of the blue button operation promotion display and the red button operation promotion display. This gives an opportunity to pay attention to the light emitting mode of the button light emitting body BT1a, and can improve the interest.

(1-6) The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the blue button operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect, and the blue in the comment notice effect. The end mode is different from the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the time elapses without operating the first button BT1 when the button operation promotion display is being performed. As a result, it is recognized from the end mode of the operation promotion effect that the operation promotion effect has ended with the passage of time without being able to operate the first button BT1 when the blue button operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect. be able to. Therefore, by confirming the end of the operation promotion effect in an end mode in which it is possible to recognize that the operation promotion effect has ended with the passage of time, the first comment notice effect is positively executed when the next comment notice effect is executed. It is possible to increase the motivation to operate the button BT1, and as a result, it is possible to improve the interest by entertaining the effect of operating the operating means.

(1-7) The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the red button operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect, and red in the comment notice effect. The end mode is different from the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the time elapses without operating the first button BT1 when the button operation promotion display is being performed. As a result, it is recognized from the end mode of the operation promotion effect that the operation promotion effect has ended with the passage of time without being able to operate the first button BT1 when the red button operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect. be able to. Therefore, by confirming the end of the operation promotion effect in an end mode in which it is possible to recognize that the operation promotion effect has ended with the passage of time, the first comment notice effect is positively executed when the next comment notice effect is executed. It is possible to increase the motivation to operate the button BT1, and as a result, it is possible to improve the interest by entertaining the effect of operating the operating means.

(1-8) In the comment notice effect, the sound output from the speaker 18 when the operation promotion effect starts in the blue effect start mode is output from the speaker 18 when the operation promotion effect starts in the red effect start mode. It is different from the sound. In this way, by configuring the starting mode so that it can be discriminated based on the information obtained from the ear called sound, it is possible to entertain with the ear and improve the interest, and by increasing the interest in sound, etc. It is also possible to improve the interest by directing with the sound of.

(1-9) The operation of the first button BT1 is prompted in both the blue button operation promotion display and the red button operation promotion display. Therefore, it is not necessary to search for the operating means to be operated depending on whether the blue button operation promoting display or the red button operation promoting display is performed, and the effect of operating the operating means is simply enjoyed to improve the interest. be able to.

(1-10) The result of the operation effect during reach is either the winning result derived only when the jackpot is won, the winning result when the jackpot is won, or the result when the jackpot is not won. There are also defeat results that are derived. Then, when the defeat result is derived by the operation of the first button BT1 in the operation effect during reach, when the operation promotion effect is completed in the crack end mode, it is compared with the case where the operation promotion effect is completed in the monochrome end mode. Then, in the production game, there is a high expectation that the jackpot symbol by the production symbol will be temporarily stopped and displayed. That is, even if the defeat result is derived instead of the victory result triggered by the operation of the first button BT1 in the operation effect during reach, the operation promotion effect is completed in any end mode triggered by the operation of the first button BT1. Depending on the situation, the degree of expectation that the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed in the effect game is different. As a result, while paying attention to whether the victory result is derived when the first button BT1 is operated in the operation effect during reach, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends even if the defeat result is derived. It is possible to improve the interest by paying attention to what kind of ending mode is.

(1-11) The first button BT1 is operated depending on whether the operation promotion display performed when the operation promotion effect is executed during the reach operation effect is the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display. Since the degree of expectation that the victory result will be derived is different, it is possible to pay attention to the operation promotion display and improve the interest.

(1-12) For example, when the end mode of the operation promotion effect when the victory result is derived is different depending on whether the operation promotion display is the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display, it is a big hit. Even though a winning result that can identify the winning result has been derived, there is a risk that the degree of attention to the winning result will decrease. However, regardless of whether the operation promotion display in the reach operation promotion display is the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display, if the winning result is derived, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends. Was the same. As a result, when a winning result that can identify that the jackpot has been won is derived, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the degree of attention to the winning result and improve the interest in the operation effect during reach. ..

(1-13) When the blue button operation promotion display is performed and the defeat result is derived in the operation effect during reach, the defeat result is derived with the lapse of a predetermined time without operating the first button BT1. The end mode is the same when the defeat result is derived by the operation of the first button BT1 and when the operation promotion effect ends. Similarly, when the red button operation promotion display is performed and the defeat result is derived in the operation effect during reach, the defeat result is derived when the predetermined time elapses without operating the first button BT1. , The end mode is the same when the defeat result is derived by the operation of the first button BT1 and when the operation promotion effect ends. In this way, in the operation effect during reach, the end mode of the operation promotion effect does not differ depending on whether or not the first button BT1 is operated. Therefore, for example, the victory result is derived due to the fact that the first button BT1 is not operated. It is possible to prevent people from misunderstanding that they did not.

(1-14) The jackpot expectation differs depending on whether the start mode when the operation promotion effect is started in the reach operation effect is the blue effect start mode or the red effect start mode. For this reason, in the reach operation effect, attention is paid to what kind of result is derived as a result of the reach operation effect triggered by the operation of the first button BT1, and attention is also paid to the start mode of the operation promotion effect. It is possible to improve the interest.

Further, when the defeat result is derived by the operation of the first button BT1 in the operation effect during reach, when the operation promotion effect is completed in the crack end mode, it is compared with the case where the operation promotion effect is completed in the monochrome end mode. Then, in the production game, there is a high expectation that the jackpot symbol by the production symbol will be temporarily stopped and displayed. That is, even if the defeat result is derived instead of the victory result triggered by the operation of the first button BT1 in the operation effect during reach, the operation promotion effect is completed in any end mode triggered by the operation of the first button BT1. Depending on the situation, the degree of expectation that the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed in the effect game is different. As a result, while paying attention to whether the victory result is derived when the first button BT1 is operated in the operation effect during reach, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends even if the defeat result is derived. It is possible to improve the interest by paying attention to what kind of ending mode is.

(1-15) When the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the operation promotion display is being performed, the first button BT1 is operated to derive the defeat result. The end mode of the operation promotion effect of the above is the crack end mode. Therefore, in the operation effect during reach, it is possible to raise the degree of attention as to whether the start mode of the operation promotion effect is the red effect start mode, and to improve the interest.

(1-16) In the reach operation effect, the sound output from the speaker 18 when the operation promotion effect starts in the blue effect start mode is output from the speaker 18 when the operation promotion effect starts in the red effect start mode. It is different from the sound that is played. In this way, by configuring the starting mode so that it can be discriminated based on the information obtained from the ear called sound, it is possible to entertain with the ear and improve the interest, and by increasing the interest in sound, etc. It is also possible to improve the interest by directing with the sound of.

(1-17) The jackpot expectation differs depending on whether the start mode when the operation promotion effect is started in the reach operation effect is the blue effect start mode or the red effect start mode. For this reason, in the reach operation effect, attention is paid to what kind of result is derived as a result of the reach operation effect triggered by the operation of the first button BT1, and attention is also paid to the start mode of the operation promotion effect. It is possible to improve the interest.

Further, in the reach operation promotion, the first button BT1 is operated depending on whether the operation promotion display performed when the operation promotion effect is being executed is the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display. The degree of expectation that the victory result will be derived is different. For this reason, in the operation promotion during reach, it is fun to pay attention to whether or not the operation promotion display has a high expectation that the victory result is derived, and after confirming the type of the operation promotion display, the first button BT1 is pressed. It is possible to improve the interest by paying attention to whether the victory result is derived by the operation.

In addition, when the defeat result is derived by the operation of the first button BT1 in the operation effect during reach, when the operation promotion effect ends in the crack end mode, when the operation promotion effect ends in the monochrome end mode. In comparison, in the production game, there is a high expectation that the jackpot symbol by the production symbol will be temporarily stopped and displayed. That is, even if the defeat result is derived instead of the victory result triggered by the operation of the first button BT1 in the operation effect during reach, the operation promotion effect is completed in any end mode triggered by the operation of the first button BT1. Depending on the situation, the degree of expectation that the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed in the effect game is different. As a result, while paying attention to whether the victory result is derived when the first button BT1 is operated in the operation effect during reach, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends even if the defeat result is derived. It is possible to improve the interest by paying attention to what kind of ending mode is.

(1-18) When the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect and when the red button operation promotion display is performed in the reach operation effect, at least one of them. When the first button BT1 is operated while the operation promotion display is being performed and the defeat result is derived, the end mode of the operation promotion effect is the crack end mode. For this reason, in the operation promotion during reach, the degree of attention regarding whether the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode and whether the operation promotion display in the operation promotion effect is the red button operation promotion display is raised, and the interest is improved. Can be planned.

(1-19) The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect is the operation promotion display in the comment notice effect. This is different from the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when a predetermined time elapses without operating the first button BT1 while the operation promotion effect is being performed. In this way, if the first button BT1 is operated while the operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect, the operation promotion effect ends in a different end mode than when the operation is not performed. Therefore, the first button BT1 The fun of operating the first button BT1 is increased, and the first button BT1 can be positively operated. Then, the motivation to operate the first button BT1 is increased, and as a result, the effect of operating the operating means can be enjoyed, thereby improving the interest.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the gaming machine will be described. The same configuration as that of the first embodiment is designated by the same reference numerals as those of the first embodiment, and detailed description and drawings thereof will be omitted.

In the first embodiment, when the defeat result is derived in the operation promotion effect during reach, when the type of the operation promotion display in the operation promotion effect during reach is determined, the start mode and the operation promotion effect when the operation promotion effect starts are determined. The end mode when the end is determined. On the other hand, in the second embodiment, the start mode when the operation promotion effect starts, the type of the operation promotion display in the operation promotion effect during reach, and the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends are separately determined. ..

For example, in the first embodiment, when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the blue button operation promotion display is being performed, the first button BT1 is operated and the defeat result. The end mode of the operation promotion effect when is derived is the monochrome end mode. Further, in the first embodiment, the first button BT1 is operated when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the red button operation promotion display is being performed, resulting in a defeat. The end mode of the operation promotion effect when is derived is the crack end mode. On the other hand, in the second embodiment, the first button BT1 is operated when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the operation promotion display is being performed, and the defeat result is derived. If this is the case, the first button BT1 is operated when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the operation promotion display is being performed, and the defeat result is derived. Compared to the case, the end mode of the operation promotion effect is configured to be more likely to be the crack end mode. That is, in the second embodiment, when the operation promotion effect is started in the second start mode in the special operation effect and the operation promotion display is being performed, the operation means is operated to derive a non-special result. In this case, as compared with the case where the operation means is operated and the non-special result is derived when the operation promotion effect is started in the first start mode in the special operation effect and the operation promotion display is performed. Therefore, the end mode of the operation promotion effect tends to be the second end mode.

Further, in the first embodiment, when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the operation promotion display in the operation promotion effect is the blue button operation promotion display, the blue button operation promotion is performed. When the first button BT1 is operated while the display is being performed and the defeat result is derived, the end mode of the operation promotion effect is the monochrome end mode. Further, in the first embodiment, when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the operation promotion display in the operation promotion effect is the red button operation promotion display, the red button operation promotion is performed. When the first button BT1 is operated while the display is being performed and the defeat result is derived, the end mode of the operation promotion effect is the crack end mode.

On the other hand, in the second embodiment, at least one of the time when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the time when the red button operation promotion display is performed in the reach operation effect. If the first button BT1 is operated at a certain time and the defeat result is derived, the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode in the reach operation effect, and the blue button operation promotion display is performed. Compared to the case where the 1-button BT1 is operated to derive the defeat result, the end mode of the operation promotion effect is configured to be more likely to be the crack end mode. That is, in the second embodiment, when the operation promotion effect is started in the second start mode in the special operation effect and when the second operation promotion display is performed in the special operation effect, at least one of them. When the operation means is operated to derive a non-special result, the operation means is operated when the operation promotion effect is started in the first start mode and the first operation promotion display is performed in the special operation effect. As compared with the case where the non-special result is derived, the end mode of the operation promotion effect is likely to be the second end mode.

In particular, in the second embodiment, when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the red button operation promotion display is performed, the operation promotion effect is performed in the blue effect start mode in the reach operation effect. When the first button BT1 is operated and the defeat result is derived when the operation promotion display is performed as compared with the time when the blue button operation promotion display is started, the end mode of the operation promotion effect is It is configured so that it tends to end in a crack. That is, in the second embodiment, when the operation promotion effect is started in the second start mode in the special operation effect and the second operation promotion display is performed, the operation means is operated to derive a non-special result. In the special operation effect, as compared with the case where the operation means is operated and the non-special result is derived when the operation promotion effect is started in the first start mode and the first operation promotion display is performed. The end mode of the operation promotion effect tends to be the second end mode.

Incidentally, in the present embodiment, when the first button BT1 is operated and the victory result is derived while the operation promotion display is being performed in the operation promotion effect during reach, the start mode of the operation promotion effect and the type of the operation promotion display Regardless of the above, the end mode of the operation promotion effect is the immediate end mode.

Hereinafter, the control related to the operation effect during reach in the second embodiment will be described. The same control as the control related to the operation effect during reach in the first embodiment will be omitted.
When the operation promotion effect during reach is executed, the sub CPU 41a determines the start mode of the operation promotion effect in the operation effect during reach. At this time, when any one of the fluctuation patterns HP5 and HP6 which is the jackpot fluctuation pattern is specified, the sub CPU 41a has a red effect start mode as compared with the case where the fluctuation pattern HP3 which is the out-of-order fluctuation pattern is specified. Is easy to determine. As a result, when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect, the jackpot expectation is higher than when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode in the reach operation effect. Can be configured in. In addition, "easy to decide" means "high probability of decision".

Further, as in the first embodiment, when the operation promotion effect during reach is executed, the sub CPU 41a determines the type of operation promotion display in the operation effect during reach. At this time, when any one of the fluctuation patterns HP5 and HP6 which is the jackpot fluctuation pattern is specified, the sub CPU 41a promotes the operation of the red button as compared with the case where the fluctuation pattern HP3 which is the out-of-order fluctuation pattern is specified. Easy to determine the display. In particular, when the variation pattern HP5 is specified, the sub CPU 41a is more likely to determine the red button operation promotion display than when the variation pattern HP6 is specified. As a result, when the red button operation promotion display is performed in the reach operation promotion, the victory is triggered by the operation of the first button BT1 as compared with the case where the blue button operation promotion display is performed. It can be configured to increase the expectation that the result will be derived.

Further, when the operation promotion effect during reach is executed, the sub CPU 41a determines the end mode of the operation promotion effect in the operation effect during reach. At this time, the sub CPU 41a determines the immediate termination mode when the variation pattern HP5 is specified. On the other hand, when any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is specified, the sub CPU 41a determines one of the monochrome end mode and the crack end mode. The sub CPU 41a is compared to the case where the variation pattern HP6 in which the resurrection effect is executed after the defeat result is derived is specified, and the variation pattern HP3 in which the resurrection effect is not executed after the defeat result is derived is specified. Therefore, it is easy to determine the crack ending mode. As a result, when the defeat result is derived by the operation of the first button BT1 in the operation effect during reach, when the operation promotion effect ends in the crack end mode, when the operation promotion effect ends in the monochrome end mode. In comparison, in the production game, it can be configured so that the expectation that the jackpot symbol by the production symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed is high.

Then, when the blue effect start mode is determined as the start mode of the operation promotion effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to start the operation promotion effect in the blue effect start mode. At this time, the sub CPU 41a controls the speaker 18 so as to output the blue start sound. Similarly, when the red effect start mode is determined as the start mode of the operation promotion effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so as to start the operation promotion effect in the red effect start mode. At this time, the sub CPU 41a controls the speaker 18 so as to output the red start sound. While the red button operation promotion display is being performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the button light emitter BT1a so as to emit red light.

When the blue button operation promotion display is determined, the sub CPU 41a causes the sub CPU 41a to operate the first button BT1 until the operation valid period related to the reach operation effect elapses or before the operation valid period elapses. , The effect display device 25 is controlled so as to perform the blue button operation promotion display. While the blue button operation promotion display is being performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the button light emitter BT1a so as to emit blue light. Similarly, when the red button operation promotion display is determined, the sub CPU 41a operates the first button BT1 until the operation valid period related to the reach operation effect elapses or before the operation valid period elapses. Until then, the effect display device 25 is controlled so as to perform the red button operation promotion display. While the red button operation promotion display is being performed, the sub CPU 41a controls the button light emitter BT1a so as to emit red light.

Further, when the detection signal from the first button BT1 is input within the operation valid period (when the operation promotion display is being performed) related to the operation promotion effect during reach, the sub CPU 41a directs the operation promotion effect to end. The display device 25 is controlled. Similarly, when the operation valid period related to the reach operation effect ends without inputting the detection signal from the first button BT1 within the operation valid period related to the reach operation effect, the sub CPU 41a ends the operation promotion effect. The effect display device 25 is controlled so as to do so. When the immediate end mode is determined as the end mode of the operation promotion effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the immediate end mode. Further, when the monochrome end mode is determined as the end mode of the operation promotion effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the monochrome end mode. Similarly, when the crack end mode is determined as the end mode of the operation promotion effect, the sub CPU 41a controls the effect display device 25 so that the operation promotion effect ends in the crack end mode.

According to the present embodiment, in addition to the effects (1-1) to (1-14), (1-16), (1-17) and (1-19) in the first embodiment, the following effects are shown. Can be obtained.
(2-1) When the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the operation promotion display is being performed, the first button BT1 is operated to derive the defeat result. Compared to the case where the first button BT1 is operated to derive the defeat result when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode in the reach operation effect and the operation promotion display is being performed. Therefore, the end mode of the operation promotion effect tends to be the crack end mode. For this reason, in the operation promotion effect during reach, attention is paid to whether the start mode of the operation promotion effect is the red effect start mode, and the start mode of the operation promotion effect is either the blue effect start mode or the red effect start mode. It is possible to give fun to pay attention to the end mode of the operation promotion effect when the defeat result is derived according to the presence, and to improve the interest.

(2-2) When the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode in the reach operation effect and when the red button operation promotion display is performed in the reach operation effect, at least one of them. When the first button BT1 is operated and the defeat result is derived, the first button BT1 is performed when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode and the blue button operation promotion display is performed in the reach operation effect. Is more likely to be the end mode of the operation promotion effect than the case where the defeat result is derived by the operation. Therefore, in the operation promotion during reach, the degree of attention as to whether the start mode of the operation promotion effect is the red effect start mode and the degree of attention as to whether the operation promotion display is the red button operation promotion display are increased, and the operation is promoted. It is possible to give fun to pay attention to the start mode of the operation promotion effect and the end mode of the operation promotion effect when the defeat result is derived according to the operation promotion display, and to improve the interest.

The above embodiment can be modified and implemented as follows. The above embodiment and the following modified examples can be implemented in combination with each other within a technically consistent range.
-The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the blue button operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect, and the red button operation promotion display in the comment notice effect. May be the same as the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the operation is being performed. In addition, in the comment notice effect, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the blue button operation promotion display is being performed, and the blue button operation promotion display are displayed. It may be the same as the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the time elapses without the operation of the first button BT1 when the button 1 is pressed. Similarly, in the comment notice effect, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the red button operation promotion display is being performed, and the red button operation promotion display are displayed. The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the time elapses without operating the first button BT1 during the operation may be the same.

-In the case where the red button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect and the case where the blue button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect, it is derived when the first button BT1 is operated. The expectation that the result of the comment notice effect will be developed advantageously may be the same. Further, when the blue button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect, the first button BT1 is operated as an opportunity as compared with the case where the red button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect. It may be configured so that the expectation that the result of the derived comment notice effect is developed advantageously is high.

-The start mode when the operation promotion effect in which the blue button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect starts, and the start mode when the operation promotion effect in which the red button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect starts. It may be the same.

-The end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect, and the operation promotion effect is performed in the appearance effect. Occasionally, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated may be the same.

-The timing for determining the result to be derived in the comment notice effect is not the timing when the first button BT1 is operated when the operation promotion display is being performed (that is, when the operation is valid for the comment notice effect). You may. For example, the result to be derived in the comment notice effect may be determined at the timing before the start of the comment notice effect. Further, the result to be derived in the comment notice effect may be determined at the timing before the type of the operation promotion display in the comment notice effect is determined. At this time, it is decided that the red button operation promotion display is performed as it is decided to derive the result with high expectation of big hit (result with high expectation for advantageous development) in the comment notice production. It may be configured so that it is easy to be used. Even in the case of such a configuration, when the red button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect, the first button is compared with the case where the blue button operation promotion display is performed in the comment notice effect. The result of the comment notice effect derived when the BT1 is operated can be configured to have a high expectation of a big hit.

-In the comment notice effect, the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the first button BT1 is operated while the operation promotion display is being performed is when the operation promotion display is being performed. It may be the same as the end mode when the operation promotion effect ends when the predetermined time elapses without operating the first button BT1.

-The predetermined fade time when the operation promotion effect ends in the fade end mode in the comment notice effect may be different from the predetermined fade time when the operation promotion effect ends in the fade end mode in the appearance effect. For example, in the comment advance effect and the appearance effect that are rarely executed (for example, the appearance effect), the operation promotion effect is set in the other effect during the predetermined fade time when the operation promotion effect ends in the fade end mode. It may be longer than the predetermined fade time when ending in the fade ending mode. With such a configuration, the period during which the player can recognize that the operating means could not be operated within the operation valid period becomes longer, and the motivation to operate the operating means can be effectively increased from the next time onward.

-The timing for determining the result to be derived in the appearance effect is not the timing when the second button BT2 is operated when the operation promotion display is performed (that is, when the operation valid period related to the appearance effect). good. For example, it may be configured so that the result to be derived in the appearance effect is determined at the timing before the start of the appearance effect.

-In the operation promotion effect during reach, the jackpot expectation does not have to be different between when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode and when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode. For example, the jackpot expectation is not different. Expectations may be the same. In addition, for example, when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode, the victory result is derived when the first button BT1 is operated as compared with the case when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode. It may be configured so that the degree of expectation is high. That is, in the reach operation effect, the victory result is triggered by the operation of the first button BT1 depending on whether the start mode when the operation promotion effect is started is the blue effect start mode or the red effect start mode. The degree of expectation from which is derived may be different.

-In the operation effect during reach, the victory result is derived when the first button BT1 is operated when the blue button operation promotion display is performed and when the red button operation promotion display is performed. The degree of expectation does not have to be different. For example, the degree of expectation from which the winning result is derived when the first button BT1 is operated may be the same. In addition, for example, when the red button operation promotion display is performed, the jackpot expectation may be higher than when the blue button operation promotion display is performed. That is, in the operation promotion effect during reach, the jackpot expectation is different depending on whether the operation promotion display performed when the operation promotion effect is being executed is the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display. May be good.

-In the operation promotion effect during reach, when the operation promotion effect ends in the monochrome end mode and when the operation promotion effect ends in the crack end mode, the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is finally temporarily stopped and displayed in the effect game. The degree of expectation for the thing does not have to be different, and for example, the degree of expectation may be the same. In addition, for example, when the operation promotion effect is completed in the crack end mode, the jackpot expectation may be higher than when the operation promotion effect is completed in the monochrome end mode. That is, even if the defeat result is derived instead of the victory result triggered by the operation of the first button BT1 in the operation effect during reach, the operation promotion effect is completed in any end mode triggered by the operation of the first button BT1. Depending on the situation, the jackpot expectation may be different.

-Events suggested or notified by the start mode of the operation effect during reach (for example, jackpot expectation) and events suggested or notified by the operation promotion display in the operation promotion during reach (for example, expectation that the winning result is derived). ) And the event suggested or notified by the end mode of the operation effect during reach (for example, the degree of expectation that the jackpot symbol by the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed), and some or all of them are the same. May be good. In addition, an event suggested or notified by the start mode of the operation effect during reach, an event suggested or notified by the operation promotion display in the operation effect during reach, and an event suggested or notified by the end mode of the operation effect during reach. , May all be different.

-When the victory result is derived, the ending mode when the operation promotion effect ends may be different depending on whether the operation promotion display is the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display. For example, when the victory result is derived, the operation promotion effect ends in the immediate end mode when the blue button operation promotion display is performed, while the operation promotion effect ends in the fade end mode when the red button operation promotion display is performed. It may be configured so that the production ends.

-When the blue button operation promotion display is performed in the operation effect during reach, when the defeat result is derived with the passage of a predetermined time without operating the first button BT1, and when the defeat result is derived, the first button BT1 The end mode of the operation promotion effect may be different between when the defeat result is derived by the operation as a trigger. Similarly, when the red button operation promotion display is performed in the operation effect during reach, the defeat result is derived when the predetermined time elapses without operating the first button BT1, and the first button. The end mode of the operation promotion effect may be different between when the defeat result is derived with the operation of BT1 as a trigger.

-In the second embodiment, when any of the fluctuation patterns HP3 and HP6 is specified, for example, the end mode of the operation promotion effect is determined according to the start mode of the operation promotion effect and the operation promotion display. It may be configured as follows. For example, when the start mode of the operation promotion effect is the red effect start mode and when the operation promotion display is the red button operation promotion display, or at least one of them, the blue effect start mode is the blue button operation. The crack end mode may be more easily determined as the end mode of the operation promotion effect as compared with the case of the promotion display. Further, when the red effect start mode is the red button operation promotion display, the crack end mode is determined as the end mode of the operation promotion effect as compared with the case where the red effect start mode is the blue button operation promotion display. It may be configured so that it is easy to be used. Similarly, when the red effect start mode is the red button operation promotion display, the crack end mode is the end mode of the operation promotion effect as compared with the case where the blue effect start mode is the red button operation promotion display. It may be configured so that it can be easily determined.

-The period during which the comment notice effect, the appearance effect, and the operation effect during reach may be executed may be changed. For example, some or all of the comment notice effect, the appearance effect, and the operation effect during reach can be executed during the period when the special game is not executed (for example, when the jackpot game is being granted or in the standby state). It may be a directing. Further, for example, some or all of the comment notice effect, the appearance effect, and the operation effect during reach can be executed within the period during which the special game is being executed, but within a period different from the above-described embodiment. It may be changed as a production. For example, the appearance effect may be an effect that can be executed within the period during which the reach effect is being executed. In changing the period during which these effects are executed, an event (for example, jackpot expectation) suggested or notified by the result derived in each effect may be changed. For example, when the comment notice effect is executed during the big hit game, the degree of expectation to be controlled to the probabilistic state after the end of the big hit game may be different depending on the result of the comment notice effect.

-The sound output from the speaker 18 when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode and the sound output from the speaker 18 when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode are the same. May be good. In addition, in either the comment notice effect or the operation promotion effect during reach, the sound output from the speaker 18 when the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode and the operation promotion effect are started in the red effect start mode. Sometimes the sound output from the speaker 18 may be different. In addition, the presence or absence of sound output may be different depending on whether the operation promotion effect is started in the blue effect start mode and the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode. For example, the sound may be output from the speaker 18 only when the operation promotion effect is started in the red effect start mode among the blue effect start mode and the red effect start mode. Further, the speaker 18 may be configured so that no sound is output when the operation promotion effect is started.

-Even if the operation means is operated while the operation promotion effect is started in the predetermined start mode, the result of the effect may be derived with the operation as a trigger. For example, when the first button BT1 is operated while the comment notice effect is started in the blue effect start mode, the result of the comment notice effect may be derived with the operation as a trigger. At this time, the result of the comment notice effect may be derived after the operation promotion display is temporarily executed, or the result of the comment notice effect may be derived without the operation promotion display being performed. It may be configured as. The operation promotion effect does not have to be an effect in which the operation promotion display is performed.

-Even if the operation means is operated while the operation promotion effect is completed in the predetermined end mode without the operation means being operated within the operation valid period related to the various effects, the operation is used as an opportunity. It may be configured so that the results of various effects are derived. For example, when the first button BT1 is operated while the operation promotion display is being performed in the comment notice effect, the result of the comment notice effect may be derived with the operation as a trigger.

-The number of operation buttons corresponding to the operation means does not have to be two, and may be, for example, one or three or more. Further, the operation means for which the operation is prompted in various effects may be changed. For example, the operation means for which the operation is prompted in the appearance effect may be changed from the second button BT2 to the first button BT1.

-The operation means for which the operation is prompted when the blue button operation promotion display is performed and the operation means for which the operation is prompted when the red button operation promotion display is performed may be different. For example, even if the operation of the first button BT1 is prompted when the blue button operation promotion display is performed, the operation of the second button BT2 is prompted when the red button operation promotion display is performed. good. In addition, for example, in the comment notice effect, the operation of the first button BT1 is prompted regardless of whether the blue button operation promotion display or the red button operation promotion display is performed. On the other hand, in the reach operation promotion effect, the operation of the first button BT1 is prompted when the blue button operation promotion display is performed, and the operation of the second button BT2 is prompted when the red button operation promotion display is performed. It may be configured as.

-When the operation promotion effect is executed, an image in which the remaining time until the operation promotion display ends can be specified or estimated is displayed, and the operation promotion display may be performed. At this time, the remaining time until the operation promotion display ends may be displayed. For example, the player recognizes that the timing at which the operation promotion display ends is approaching due to the decrease in the meter (or gauge). The display of possible aspects may be made. Then, for example, when the blue button image Bb is displayed and when the red button image Br is displayed, the player can recognize that the timing at which the operation promotion display ends is approaching due to the decrease in the meter. The operation promotion display may be different by changing the mode.

-The image displayed when various operation promotion displays are performed may be changed. For example, when the red button operation promotion display is performed, the character image CH may not be displayed. Further, the number of images displayed when various operation promotion displays are performed may be the same.

The light emitting mode of the button light emitting body BT1a when the blue button operation promotion display is performed and the light emitting mode of the button light emitting body BT1a when the red button operation promotion display is performed may be the same. .. Further, the button light emitter BT1a may not be provided. That is, the first button BT1 may be an operating means that does not incorporate the button light emitting body BT1a.

-It may be provided with an operating means having a built-in vibration device. For example, the first button BT1 may have a built-in vibration device. Then, for example, the vibrating device may be configured to operate when the blue button operation promoting display is started, while the vibrating device may be operated when the red button operation promoting display is started. In this configuration, the vibration generated by the operation of the vibrating device can be recognized by touching the first button BT1, so that the first button BT1 can be operated more positively, and the interest is improved. Can be planned.

-The above embodiment may be equipped with an auto function (auto button function). The auto function is a function that advances the production by assuming that the operating means has been operated. In the situation where the auto function is set, it does not occur that the operating means is not operated during the operation valid period related to various effects. Therefore, when the auto function is installed, when the operation valid period ends without operating the operation means within the operation valid period related to various effects, it is when the auto function is not set and it is used for various effects. This corresponds to the end of the operation validity period without operating the operation means within the operation validity period. Further, when the auto function is set, even if the operating means is not actually operated, the production is performed on the assumption that the operating means has been operated. Therefore, when the auto function is installed, when the operation means is operated within the operation valid period related to various effects in the above embodiment, it is when the auto function is set and the operation means is actually It will be included even when it is not operated.

-In the above embodiment, a special game executed based on the ball entering the first starting port 26 (hereinafter referred to as the first special game) and a special game executed based on the ball entering the second starting port 27 (hereinafter referred to as the first special game). Hereinafter, it may be referred to as the second special game). For example, the second special game may be configured to be executed with priority over the first special game, or may be configured to be executed in the order in which the execution is suspended regardless of the type of the special game. May be good. Further, the first special game may be configured to be executed with priority over the second special game. In addition, the first special game and the second special game may be configured to be executable at the same time. For example, in the low base state, the production game corresponding to the first special game is executed, while in the high base state, the first is 2 The production game corresponding to the special game may be executed. Further, for example, even if at least one of the type of jackpot and the determination rate of various jackpots determined by the first special game becomes a jackpot and the second special game becomes a jackpot is different. good.
