Description

The present disclosure relates to a gaming machine in which a gaming ball is driven into the left or right side of a gaming area to play a game.

Conventionally, as a gaming machine of this type, whether it is advantageous for the player to hit the game ball on the left side of the game area or to hit the game ball on the right side of the game area is advantageous for the player. Different conditions are known. Further, in recent gaming machines, it is known that the gaming state is switched when the number of consecutive executions of the hit / fail determination in which the determination result is out of order reaches a predetermined predetermined number of times (for example, non-patent documents). 1).

Pachinko / Pachislot Life Improvement Committee HP (see https://pachi-life-up.com/yuutime/)

It is an object of the present disclosure to provide a gaming machine having such a function, in which a player can smoothly play a game in response to a change in the gaming state.

In the invention of claim 1 made to solve the above problems, a game ball is driven into a game area on the front surface of a game board, and when the first hit / fail determination condition is satisfied, the first hit / fail judgment is performed accordingly. When a big hit is confirmed by the judgment notification effect that notifies the judgment result, the first variable winning opening, which is normally difficult to win, is a gaming machine in which a big hit game is performed in which the winning is easier than usual. The low-accuracy low-assist state in which the probability of becoming a hit is low and the first hit / fail determination condition is difficult to be satisfied, the low-accuracy high-assist state in which the probability of becoming a jackpot is low and the first hit / fail determination condition is likely to be satisfied, and the jackpot. The player includes a high-accuracy high-assist state in which the probability of becoming the player is high and the first hit / fail determination condition is likely to be satisfied. On the other hand, in the low-probability and high-assist state and the high-probability and high-assist state, right-handed striking to hit the game ball on the right side of the game area is advantageous to the player, and the addition that determines the game state at the jackpot. After the big hit game is executed with the information added, the game state is changed based on the added information, and the number of consecutive executions in which the determination result of the first hit / fail determination is deviated while the low probability and low assist state is maintained is in advance. In a gaming machine that switches to the low-probability and high-assist state due to the establishment of the ceiling condition that has reached a predetermined number of times, the low-probability and high-assist state is changed to the low-probability and high-assist state due to the establishment of the ceiling condition. It is a gaming machine having an operation suggestion effect means for performing a right-handed suggestion effect suggesting that the right-handed strike is advantageous for the player when the game is changed to.

According to the gaming machine of claim 1, when the gaming state is switched due to the establishment of the ceiling condition, the ceiling right-handed suggestion video 50T suggesting that the right-handed hit is advantageous for the player by the operation suggestion staging means. Since it is performed, the player can smoothly hit the right in response to the change of the gaming state.

It is discharged.

The game ball housed in the storage recess of the upper ball storage unit 26 is driven into the game area R1 due to the rotation operation of the operation knob 28 provided on the right side of the lower ball storage unit 27. Further, by changing the rotation operation amount of the operation knob 28, it is determined whether to perform a left-handed strike that causes the game ball to flow down to the left-side flow-down region R2, which will be described later, or a right-handed strike that causes the game ball to flow down to the right-side flow-down region R3. Can be divided.

<About the game area R1>
As shown in FIG. 2, the game area R1 is entirely surrounded by the guide rail 12, and has a display opening 11H that penetrates the game plate 11 inside. Then, the display screen 13G of the display device 13 can be visually recognized through the display opening 11H. Further, a display decorative frame 23 is attached to the opening edge of the display opening 11H to regulate the game ball from entering the display opening 11H. The display decorative frame 23 divides the game area R1 into a left side flow area R2 on the left side of the display opening 11H and a right side flow area R3 on the right side. Further, an LED display unit 13P having a plurality of LEDs 13L is provided at the lower right portion of the opening edge of the display opening 11H.

A plurality of winning openings and a plurality of obstacle nails (not shown) are dispersedly arranged around the display opening 11H in the game area R1. Further, an out port 22 is provided at the lower end of the game area R1. Then, the game ball flowing down the game area R1 is taken into the rear side of the game board 11 through any of the winning openings or the out openings 22. Further, the entry of a game ball into the winning opening is called "winning", and when the game ball wins in each winning opening, a plurality of game balls (prize balls) are paid out to the storage recess of the upper ball storage unit 26. ..

The above-mentioned plurality of winning openings include a plurality of ordinary winning openings 21 which are pocket-type winning openings, first and third starting winning openings 14, 16 and a second starting winning opening which is a slide opening / closing type winning opening. 15 and a large winning opening 20, which is a winning opening of the transverse rotation opening / closing type, are included.

The plurality of pocket-shaped ordinary winning openings 21, the first and third starting winning openings 14, 16 are opened on the upper surface of the winning protrusion protruding from the front surface of the game plate 11, and the game balls can be won one by one. It is sized. The first start winning opening 14 is arranged in the center of the lateral direction H1 in the area below the display decorative frame 23 in the game area R1, and the third starting winning opening 16 is arranged in the lower right of the first starting winning opening 14. Further, a pair of ordinary winning openings 21 are arranged on the left side of the first starting winning opening 14, and one ordinary winning opening 21 is arranged on the upper part of the right flow area R3.

As shown in FIG. 3, the large winning opening 20 is arranged in the middle portion of the right side flow region R3 in the vertical direction. Specifically, the large winning opening 20 projects from the front surface of the game board 11 and opens on the side surface of the front duct 20D adjacent to the right side surface of the display decorative frame 23, and is opened and closed by the rotating door 20T. The rotating door 20T rotates about a rotation axis extending in the front-rear direction H2 along the lower end opening edge of the large winning opening 20, and normally takes an upright posture to close the large winning opening 20. Due to a big hit or a small hit in the hit / fail judgment described later, the rotary door 20T falls sideways to open the big winning opening 20, and guides the game ball to the big winning opening 20.

In the right lateral portion of the lower end portion of the display opening 11H in the right flow area R3, an inclined duct portion 95 having a width that allows the game balls to pass one by one is provided. Further, the end portion of the inclined duct portion 95 bends downward and faces straight down, and is connected to the common trunk flow path 94. Further, the common trunk flow path 94 has, for example, a hanging bell shape and widens downward. A throttle opening 94A, which is a terminal opening of the inclined duct portion 95, is arranged at the center of the lateral direction H1 at the upper end portion of the common trunk flow path 94.

As shown in FIG. 2, a winning unit 30 is provided in the lower right portion of the game area R1 located below the common trunk flow path 94. The winning unit 30 has a unit cover 32 attached to the front surface of the unit main body 31 shown in FIG. Then, the unit main body 31 is fitted and fixed in a through window (not shown) penetrating the game plate 11 at the lower right corner portion of the game area R1. Further, the unit cover 32 is overlapped with the inner surface of the glass plate of the glass window 10W, and the partition wall 33 projects from the rear surface. Further, the partition wall 34 protrudes from the front surface of the unit main body 31. Then, the partition walls 33 and 34 are fixed in a state of being sandwiched between the unit cover 32 and the unit main body 31, and a flow path through which the game ball passes is formed between the unit main body 31 and the unit cover 32. ..

As shown in FIG. 4, the lower right corner portion of the game area R1 is divided into first to third flow paths 91, 92, 93 by the partition walls 33, 34 and the like of the winning unit 30. The first to third flow paths 91, 92, 93 have a width in which the game balls flow down one by one, and the entry ports 91A, 92A, 93A are arranged side by side at the lower end of the common trunk flow path 94. It is placed and faces upward. Then, all of the game balls that did not win the large winning opening 20 (see FIG. 2) in the game ball driven into the right side flow area R3 pass through the common trunk flow path 94, and the first to third flow paths 91 and 92. , 93 is designed to flow into one of them.

As shown in FIG. 4, the first flow path 91 is sandwiched between a part of the partition wall 33 constituting the upper surface of the winning unit 30 and a part of the display decorative frame 23, and is the lower end of the common trunk flow path 94. An entrance 91A is provided at the left end of the portion. The first flow path 91 extends slightly in the vertical direction from the entry port 91A and then descends diagonally to the lower left.

The third flow path 93 is sandwiched between the partition wall 34 forming the right side surface of the winning unit 30, a part of the guide rail 12 intersecting the lower end of the partition wall 34, and the partition wall 33 facing them. Therefore, a ball entry port 93A is provided at the right end of the lower end of the common trunk flow path 94. Further, the entire third flow path 93 has an L shape with a part of the guide rail 12 as a horizontal side, and the game ball passing through the third flow path 93 rolls on the guide rail 12 and starts the third. It passes below the winning opening 16 and heads for the out opening 22.

In the second flow path 92, the entry port 92A is located at the center of the lower end of the common trunk flow path 94 in the lateral direction H1 and directly below the throttle opening 94A, and the discharge port 92B is directly above the third start winning opening 16. positioned. Further, the upper end of the second flow path 92 is a start gate 18 provided with a detection switch 18S for detecting the passage of the game ball. Further, the range extending from the middle position of the second flow path 92 to the discharge port 92B forms the rolling path 96, and the above-mentioned second starting winning opening 15 opens at the upstream position in the rolling path 96, which is usually the case. It is closed by the slide door 15T, and a part of the rolling path 96 is formed by the slide door 15T.

When the slide door 15T slides backward and the second start winning opening 15 is opened, the game ball on the rolling path 96 wins the second starting winning opening 15. Further, in the second flow path 92, as shown by the thick arrow in FIG. 5, the branch rolling path 96B that branches backward from the upper end position of the rolling path 96 and then joins the rolling path 96 again. Is provided. As a result, when the slide door 15T is opened, both the game ball on the branch rolling path 96B and the game ball on the rolling path 96 win the second start winning opening 15. On the other hand, when the slide door 15T is closed, the game ball passes through the slide door 15T and the branch rolling path 96B and flows down from the discharge port 92B toward the third start winning port 16.

<Right to judge whether it is right or wrong>
In the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, when a game ball wins a prize in the starting gate 18 and the first to third starting winning openings 14 to 16, a winning / failing determination right is generated, and the winning / failing determination is performed using the winning / failing determination right. Will be. The right / wrong judgment right is provided with a normal figure judgment right and a special figure judgment right, and the special figure judgment right is provided with a first right / wrong judgment right and a second right / wrong judgment right.

The normal figure determination right is generated when the game ball passes through the start gate 18 as "the establishment of the normal figure correctness determination condition", and the normal figure correctness determination is performed due to the establishment. The normal figure pass / fail judgment is displayed on the display screen 13G. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the normal symbol 13D, which is a one-digit number, is alternately switched between odd numbers and even numbers at the lower right of the display screen 13G. After the variable display is performed, the stop display is performed, and if the stopped display of the normal symbol 13D is, for example, an odd number is notified as "hit", and an even number is notified as "missing". Then, when the hit is made in the normal drawing success / failure determination, the slide door 15T of the second start winning opening 15 opens for a certain period of time, and the game ball is easily won in the second starting winning opening 15.

The first hit / fail judgment right is generated by winning a game ball in the first or second starting winning openings 14 and 15 as "the first hit / fail judgment condition is satisfied", and the first is caused by the establishment. A pass / fail judgment is made. The first hit / fail judgment is displayed on the display screen 13G. For example, three special symbols 41, 42, and 43, which will be described later, are variablely displayed on the display screen 13G, then stopped and displayed in sequence, and the stopped display is displayed. It is notified by a combination of symbols 41, 42, and 43. Hereinafter, the effect of notifying the determination result of the first hit / miss determination right in this way is referred to as a “first determination notification effect”. When the hit / fail judgment is a big hit, the combination of the three special symbols 41, 42, 43 which are stopped and displayed becomes a big hit symbol combination (for example, doublet) which means a big hit, and in the case of a small hit, it is a small hit. It is a winning symbol combination, and in the case of a miss, it is a missed symbol combination meaning a miss. In addition, when the game ball wins in the first or second starting winning openings 14 and 15 while the first determination notification effect is being performed and while the big hit game and the small hit game described later are being performed. The first pass / fail judgment right for that amount is reserved up to a predetermined upper limit (for example, up to four), and the first pass / fail judgment right does not occur after that. Then, the reserved first pass / fail determination right is used in the order of occurrence (oldest order).

The second winning / failing determination right is generated by winning a prize in the third starting winning opening 16 as "the establishment of the second winning / failing determination condition", and the second winning / failing determination is performed based on the establishment. The second hit / fail determination is displayed on the LED display unit 13P. For example, after blinking a plurality of LEDs 13L to make a variable display, the blinking is stopped and the display is stopped, and the plurality of LEDs 13L at that time are lit. Notified by the pattern. Hereinafter, the effect of notifying the determination result of the second hit / miss determination right in this way is referred to as a “second determination notification effect”. Since it is extremely difficult for the player to decipher the lighting pattern of the LED 13L, the notification of the determination result of the second winning / failing determination right due to the winning of the third starting winning opening 16 is substantially performed. Equal to none.

If a game ball wins in the third start winning opening 16 while the second determination notification effect is being performed, or while the big hit game and the small hit game described later are being performed, the second of the corresponding amount. The right / wrong judgment right is reserved up to a predetermined upper limit (for example, up to four), and the second right / wrong judgment right does not occur after that. Then, the reserved second pass / fail determination right is used in the order of occurrence (oldest order).

Further, as described above, between the first pass / fail determination rights and between the second pass / fail determination rights, the determination notification effect is started using the pass / fail determination rights in the order of occurrence, and the first or second pass / fail determination right is started. The determination notification effect of the other right / wrong determination right is started regardless of whether or not the determination notification effect of one of the hit / fail determination rights is being executed.

The judgment results of the first and second hit / fail judgments include "big hit", "small hit", and "missing", and when it becomes "big hit" and "small hit", the big winning opening 20 is open. A big hit game and a small hit game in which rounds that are opened over a specified number of times are performed are executed. Then, after the end of the big hit game, the game state may change as described below, but the game state does not change after the end of the small hit game. For this reason, among the players of the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, when simply called "hit", it may mean only a big hit without including a small hit. In addition, the specified opening time of the big winning opening 20 in one round is shorter than the big hit, and the specified number of rounds performed in one big hit game or the small hit game is 2, 4, in the big hit game. Whereas it is one of 10 times (see FIG. 7), it is 2 times in the small hit game. Further, the probability of becoming a big hit is the same regardless of whether the first hit / miss judgment right or the second hit / miss judgment right is used. On the other hand, the probability of becoming a small hit is extremely high in the hit / fail judgment by the second hit / miss judgment right (for example, 1 / 1.2), whereas it is 0 or in the hit / fail judgment by the first hit / miss judgment right. , Because it is extremely low, it is practically 0.

<About the game status>
The game state is provided with a "non-time saving state" and a "time saving state" in which the states when performing the normal drawing judgment are different, and the state is switched between the non-time saving state and the time saving state at the end of the big hit game. .. In the time-reduced state, the fluctuation display time of the normal symbol 13D in the normal figure hit / miss determination is shorter, and the opening time of the second start winning opening 15 when a hit is made is longer than in the non-time-reduced state. That is, in the time-saving state, the first hit / fail determination condition is more likely to be satisfied as compared with the non-time-saving state.

In addition, the game state is provided with a "low probability state" and a "high probability state" in which the states when the special figure determination is performed are different. It switches between a probabilistic state and a high-probability state. In the high probability state, the probability of becoming a big hit is higher than in the low probability state.

By combining the above-mentioned non-time saving state and time saving state, and low probability state and high probability state, the pachinko gaming machine 10 can be in the following gaming states. That is, the pachinko gaming machine 10 has a low probability non-time saving state in a low probability state and a non-time saving state, a low probability time saving state in a low probability state and a time saving state, and a high probability non-time saving state in a high probability state and a non-time saving state. Four gaming states are set: a time-saving state and a high-probability state and a high-probability time-saving state. Hereinafter, the low probability non-time saving state is also referred to as a "normal state", and the gaming state other than the low probability non-time saving state is also referred to as a "non-normal state".

In the pachinko gaming machine 10, the execution times of the first and second determination notification effects differ depending on the gaming state, and are as shown in FIG. In the present embodiment, the execution time of the determination notification effect based on the first hit / fail determination right is set to be relatively short except in the high-accuracy non-time-saving state, and relatively long in the high-accuracy non-time-saving state. The execution time of the determination notification effect based on the right / wrong determination right of 2 is set to be relatively long except in the high-accuracy non-time-saving state, and relatively short in the high-accuracy non-time-saving state.

With this configuration, the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment has a small hit RUSH in which small hits frequently occur in a highly accurate non-time saving state. Specifically, when a right-handed game is performed in a highly accurate non-time saving state, many game balls flow down to the second flow path 92 of the winning units 30. At this time, since it is difficult to satisfy the first hit / fail determination condition, most of the game balls pass over the second start winning opening 15 and head from the discharge port 92B to the third starting winning opening 16. Further, in the second winning / failing judgment right based on the winning of the third starting winning opening 16, the small hit occurs with a high probability (for example, 1 / 1.2) and the judgment notification time is short, so that the small hit is small. Hits occur frequently, resulting in a small hit rush. Hereinafter, the “high accuracy non-time saving state” will also be referred to as a “small hit RUSH”.

Further, the type of jackpot differs depending on the game state, and is as shown in FIG. 7, for example. For example, "10R" in FIG. 7 and the like indicates that the jackpot game is performed for 10 rounds.

<About left-handed and right-handed games according to the game status>
Due to the above-described configuration, in the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, in the normal state, it is difficult for the first winning / failing determination condition to be satisfied in the second starting winning opening 15, and the winning in the third starting winning opening 16 is achieved. Since the execution time of the second determination notification effect caused by this is very long, it is more advantageous for the player to perform a left-handed game aiming at the first start winning opening 14 from the left flow area R2. On the other hand, when the gaming state is an abnormal state, the first winning / failing determination condition is likely to be satisfied in the second starting winning opening 15, and the second determination notification effect due to the winning in the third starting winning opening 16. Since one or both of the conditions of the short execution time are satisfied, it is advantageous for the player to perform the right-handed game. Further, when the hit / fail determination is a big hit or a small hit, it is advantageous for the player to perform a right-handed game in order to make the game ball win the big winning opening 20 arranged in the right flow area R3.

Then, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, for example, a video for suggesting which of the left side flow area R2 and the right side flow area R3 of the game area R1 is advantageous for the player depending on the game state starts the game. When the small hit game and the big hit game are started, and when the game state is switched between the abnormal state and the normal state after the big hit game, the display screen 13G is displayed. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8A, when switching to an abnormal state or when starting a small hit game or a big hit game, it is called "right-handed" arranged in the center of the display screen 13G. A right-handed suggestion image 50 including a message 51 and a right-pointing arrow 52 arranged in the upper right portion of the display screen 13G is displayed. Further, in the abnormal state, as shown in FIG. 8B, the right-pointing arrow 52 is always displayed. On the other hand, when switching to the normal gaming state or the like, although not shown, a left-handed suggestion image including a message "hit to the left" and a left-pointing arrow is displayed on the display screen 13G.

<About the first judgment notification effect>
In the first determination notification effect, when two of the special symbols 41, 42, 43 stop at the same symbol and enter the reach state, for example, the image is switched to a video in which the characters appearing in the game compete. , There are a plurality of types of reach judgment notification effects that notify the judgment result depending on whether or not the character wins the competition. Further, these plurality of types of reach determination notification effects are provided with a special determination notification effect 60 that is different from the normal reach determination notification effect. Hereinafter, the special determination notification effect 60 will be described by taking "Penguins go!", Which is one of the special determination notification effects 60, as an example.

In the special determination notification effect 60, when the special symbols 41, 42, 43 start to fluctuate and reach the reach state, the special symbols 41, 42, 43 move from the center of the display screen 13G (see FIG. 2) to the upper left portion. , Is displayed small. Then, the display screen 13G switches to an image in which the penguins and other animals compete for swimming at a short distance, and the state in which the penguins swim while competing with other animals is displayed. After that, the state of the last spurt near the goal is displayed, and when the penguins finish in the first place, it becomes a big hit, and the special symbols 41, 42, 43 are all stopped and displayed with the same symbol. On the other hand, when the penguins reach a goal other than the first place, it will be off, and the special symbols 41, 42, 43 will be stopped and displayed because they are out of reach.

Here, in the special determination notification effect 60, the image of the portion where the penguins make the last spurt in front of the goal is the 3D image 60A. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 10, the 3D image 60A is composed of a first layer 61, a second layer 62, and a third layer 63. The first layer 61 is arranged in the foreground, and a penguin is drawn as the first object image 61A in the center. The second layer 62 is arranged between the first layer 61 and the third layer 63, and confetti is drawn as the second target image 62A at a position surrounding the first target image 61A. The third layer 63 is arranged on the backmost surface, and a flash is drawn as the third object image 63A so as to surround the first object image 61A. Further, in these first to third layers 61, 62, 63, the portion without the pattern is colorless and transparent.

In the 3D image 60A, these first to third layers 61, 62, 63 are overlapped, and as shown in the change from FIGS. 11 (A) to 11 (B), the penguins appear to pop out. It is a video. Specifically, in the 3D image 60A of the present embodiment, the first layer 61 moves to expand forward, while the second and third layers 62 and 63 move to shrink backward. As a result, the appearance of the first object image 61A of the first layer 61 becoming larger is emphasized, and the degree to which the first object image 61A protrudes to the front side is increased.

Further, the special determination notification effect 60 is different from the reach determination notification effect in setting the game state after the big hit game. In the reach determination notification effect, the game state after the big hit game is randomly determined, whereas in the special determination notification effect 60, the game state after the big hit game is predetermined and after the big hit game. The game state of is set differently depending on the game state at the time of execution of the special determination notification effect 60. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 12A, when the special determination notification effect 60 is executed in the normal state and the hit / fail judgment is a big hit, the game state after the big hit game shifts to the high probability non-time saving state. Then, as shown in FIG. 12B, when the special determination notification effect 60 is executed in the low probability time saving state and the hit / fail judgment is a big hit, the gaming state after the big hit game shifts to the high probability time saving state. It has become. As a result, the player is paying close attention to whether the special determination notification effect 60 is executed in the normal state or in the low probability time saving state.

In the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, in addition to the case where the gaming state is switched at the big hit game as described above, the determination results of the first and second hit / fail determinations are predetermined in the normal state. A so-called play time is set, in which the gaming state is switched to the low probability time saving state when the first specified number of times (for example, 900 times) is continuous. The play time is set so that the gaming state does not return to the normal state from the switching until the number of determinations of the first and second hit / fail determination reaches the preset second specified number of times (for example, 120 times). When a big hit is assigned during the play time, the game state develops from the low probability time reduction state to the high probability time reduction state, or the low probability time reduction state is maintained. Hereinafter, the fact that the judgment results of the first and second hit / fail judgments are consecutive for the first specified number of times in the normal state is referred to as "the establishment of the ceiling condition".

By the way, since the play time is different from the case where the game state is switched after the big hit game is introduced in the pachinko gaming machine 10 in a short time, the player cannot understand what happened and the game state is switched. There was a risk that it could not be dealt with. Therefore, in the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, when the gaming state is changed from the normal state to the low probability time saving state due to the establishment of the ceiling condition, the gaming ball is placed in the right flow area R3 of the gaming area R1. A right-handed suggestion image 50 suggesting that it is advantageous to hit is displayed. Hereinafter, in order to distinguish the right-handed suggestion image 50 displayed due to the establishment of the ceiling condition from the right-handed suggestion image 50 displayed when the game state is switched after the above-mentioned big hit game, " The ceiling right-handed suggestion image 50T is called, and the right-handed suggestion image 50 after the big hit game is called "normal right-handed suggestion image 50".

As shown in FIG. 13A, the ceiling right-handed suggestion video 50T is the first when the ceiling condition is continuously satisfied for the first specified number of times as the judgment result of the failure of the first and second hit / fail judgments. It is displayed on the display screen 13G when the determination notification effect for the first specified number of times (that is, the 900th time) is started. The display mode of the ceiling right-handed suggestion image 50T is as follows, unlike the display mode of the normal right-handed suggestion image 50 (see FIG. 8A). That is, in the ceiling right-handed suggestion video 50T, first, after the message 53 "Relief is activated! Right-handed", which is different from the normal right-handed suggestion video 50, is displayed in the center of the display screen 13G (see FIG. 9A). ), The message 54 "Full power mode" is displayed (see FIG. 9B). Then, the message 51 displayed in the normal right-handed suggestion video 50 is superimposed and displayed on the front side of the message 54 (see FIG. 9C). Further, in the ceiling right-handed suggestion image 50T, a right-pointing arrow 52 is displayed in the upper right portion of the display screen 13G as in the normal right-handed suggestion image 50. Then, when the ceiling right-handed suggestion video 50T ends, the determination notification effect is started. This makes it possible for the player to understand that the game state has entered the play time in which the game state becomes a low probability time reduction state, and that it is necessary to change to right-handed to play the game. It has become.

As shown in FIG. 13B, when the judgment result of the judgment notification effect becomes a big hit at the first specified number of times (that is, the 900th time) (in FIG. 13B, a special determination is made as the determination notification effect. (An example in which the notification effect 60 is executed) is shown, the ceiling condition is not satisfied because the determination results of the first and second hit / fail judgments are not continuous for the first specified number of times. Therefore, the play time does not shift, and the ceiling right-handed suggestion video 50T is not executed. In addition, if the determination result of the determination notification effect becomes a big hit before the determination result of the deviation is the first specified number of times, the number of consecutive deviations that have been digested is reset, and the number of consecutive deviations from the big hit game. Is counted again (see FIG. 13B).

Here, in the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, as described above, the ceiling right-handed suggestion video 50T is displayed before the first predetermined number of determination notification effects are started, so that the player is on the ceiling right. It is recognized that the judgment notification effect after the hitting suggestion video 50T has occurred in a low-probability time-saving state. However, the determination notification effect after the ceiling right-handed suggestion image 50T occurs in the normal state, and the gaming state is switched after the determination notification effect started after the ceiling right-handed suggestion image 50T ends. Therefore, the determination notification effect of the first specified number of times (that is, the 900th time) is the above-mentioned special determination notification effect 60, and the ceiling right-handed suggestion image 50T is displayed before the special determination notification effect 60 is started. When it is executed, the player recognizes that the special determination notification effect 60 has occurred in the low probability time saving state even though the special determination notification effect 60 is executed in the normal state. There may be a discrepancy with the player's perception.

Therefore, in the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14C, when the special determination notification effect 60 is executed in the determination notification effect of the first predetermined number of times (more specifically, the special determination). (When the judgment result is out of the notification effect), the ceiling right-handed suggestion video 50T is not performed at the time of the first predetermined number of judgment notification effects, but is executed when the next judgment notification effect is started. It is composed. As a result, the player can be made to recognize that the special determination notification effect 60 has been executed in the normal state, so that the above-mentioned misidentification can be eliminated. When the special judgment notification effect 60 is executed in the first specified number of times of the determination notification effect and the determination result is a big hit, the ceiling condition is not satisfied as described above, so that the ceiling right-handed suggestion video 50T Is not executed in the first place.

Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the first predetermined number of determination notification effects is not the first determination notification effect executed on the display screen 13G, but the second determination notification performed on the LED display unit 13P.

Alternatively, the probability change icon 65 is displayed. Here, as described above, when the determination result is a big hit in the normal state, the special determination notification effect 60 shifts to the high accuracy non-time saving state, that is, the small hit RUSH, and the determination result is obtained in the low accuracy time saving state. In the case of a big hit, it shifts to a high-accuracy time-saving state. Therefore, in the special determination notification effect 60, when a big hit occurs in the normal state, the small hit RUSH icon 64 is displayed on the display screen 13G, and when the big hit occurs in the low probability time saving state, the probability change icon 65 is displayed on the display screen 13G. It has become. The pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment is configured to determine the type of icon to be displayed when a big hit is performed in the special determination notification effect 60, depending on whether or not the ceiling right-handed suggestion video 50T is performed.
