By referring to the internal lottery table stored in the stored main lottery table storage area 1910, it is determined whether or not the winning combination has been won.

In the lottery flag setting process, based on the result of the random number determination process, the lottery flag corresponding to the winning combination is changed from the non-winning state (first flag state, off state) to the winning state (second flag state). , on state). In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when two or more winning combinations are won in duplicate, the lottery flags corresponding to each of the two or more winning combinations are set in the winning state. The setting information of the lottery flag is stored in the lottery flag storage area 1915 provided in the main RAM of the game information storage means 190a.

In addition, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, there is a lottery flag (carry-over possible flag) that allows the winning state to be carried over to subsequent games until a prize is won, and a non-selection flag that does not carry over the winning state to subsequent games regardless of the winning state. A lottery flag (non-carryover flag) that is reset to the winning state is prepared. A combination to which the former carryover possible flag is associated is a big bonus (BB), and a small combination and replay are associated with the latter carryover impossible flag. That is, in the lottery flag setting process, when the big bonus (BB) is won in the internal lottery, the winning state of the big bonus (BB) lottery flag is carried over until the big bonus (BB) is won. At this time, the internal lottery means 120 performs an internal lottery to determine the success or failure of a small combination and replay even in a game in which the lottery flag of the big bonus (BB) is carried over. That is, in the lottery flag setting process, in a game in which the winning state of the big bonus (BB) lottery flag is carried over, if a small combination or replay is won, the lottery flag of the already won big bonus (BB) is set. A lottery flag corresponding to two or more types of combination consisting of a small combination won in an internal lottery and a lottery flag for replay is set in a winning state.

The reel control means 130 starts rotating the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 by the stepping motor based on the start signal from the start switch 230 which is activated by the game start operation on the start lever SL, and the first reel R1. Stop operation by pressing stop buttons B1 to B3 (stop operation means) corresponding to the reel in which the third reel R3 is steadily rotating at a predetermined speed (about 80 rpm: a rotation speed of about 80 rotations per minute) and control to stop the first to third reels R1 to R3 rotationally driven by the stepping motor in a mode corresponding to the setting state of the lottery flag (the result of the internal lottery).

Then, the reel control means 130 stops the reels from the stop switch 240 when the stop switch 240 is activated by the player pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 in a state in which the stop operation for the stop buttons B1 to B3 is enabled. Based on the signal, all-phase excitation driving pulses are supplied to the stepping motor of the reel unit 310, thereby controlling to stop each reel of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3.

That is, each time one of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is pressed, the reel control means 130 determines the stop position of the reel corresponding to the pressed button among the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. It controls to stop the reel at the stop position determined. In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, pressing the stop button (first stop operation means) B1 corresponds to the operation for stopping the first reel R1, and pressing the stop button (second stop operation means) B2. pressing corresponds to the operation for stopping the second reel R2, and pressing the stop button (third stop operation means) B3 corresponds to the operation for stopping the third reel R3. That is, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when the order of pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 changes, the order of stopping the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 changes.

In addition, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, within 190 ms from the point at which the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed, the spinning reels corresponding to the pressed stop buttons are stopped for the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. It's like When the spinning reels are to be stopped within 190ms from the point at which the stop button is pressed, the stop position of each spinning reel is set so that the number of frames required from the point at which the stop button is pressed until the reels stop is 0 frames. It is determined within the range of ~4 frames (predetermined pull-in range). Then, the reel control means 130 causes the pattern corresponding to the winning combination in the internal lottery to be displayed on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating reel corresponding to the stop button pressed down among the stop buttons B1 to B3. When the display position on the active line is within the range of 0 frames to 4 frames at the time when the pressing operation is performed, the pattern corresponding to the combination whose lottery flag is set to the winning state is the active line As shown in the upper display position, control is performed to stop the rotating reel corresponding to the stop button pressed.

In the gaming machine of this embodiment, the reel unit 310 is provided with a reel index 315 consisting of a photo sensor, and the reel control means 130 is based on a reference position signal detected by the reel index 315 each time the reel makes one rotation. By obtaining the rotation angle (rotational step number of the rotation shaft of the stepping motor) from the reel reference position (the frame detected by the reel index 315), the current rotation state of the reel can be monitored. It's becoming That is, the reel control means 130 can obtain the position of the reel when the stop switch 240 is activated by obtaining the rotation angle of the reel from the reference position.

In addition, the reel control means 130 refers to a stop control table stored in the stop control data storage area 1911 provided in the main ROM of the game information storage means 190a to determine the stop position of the rotating reel (table reference processing). In the stop control table, the corresponding relationship between the depression detection position and the actual stop position is set according to the setting state of the lottery flag. In the stop control table, depending on the setting state of the lottery flag, the correspondence relationship between the press detection position and the number of sliding symbols indicating the amount of rotation from the press detection position to the actual stop position may be set.

In the stop control table that is referred to when one of the batting order bells 1 to 6 is won in the internal lottery, as shown in FIG. A correct hitting order (specific operation mode) according to the type is set in advance, and a pressing order different from the correct hitting order is treated as an incorrect hitting order. In the present embodiment, when any of the batting order bells is won, the stop position with respect to the pressing detection position is set so that a small winning combination of 15 is won in the order of correct batting, and a small winning combination of 1 is awarded in the order of incorrect batting. ing. As described above, depending on whether or not the operation mode of the stop operation is in the correct hitting order, there is a case where the 15-coin small combination is won and a case where the 15-coin small combination is not won.

In addition, in the stop control table referred to when weak cherry is won, the stop position is set with respect to the depression detection position so that a small winning combination is won, and in the stop control table referred to when watermelon is won, , the stop position corresponding to the press detection position is set so as to win a small winning combination. The stop position is set, and in the stop control table referred to when the 3-piece winning combination is won, the stop position relative to the pressing detection position is set so that the 3-piece small winning combination wins, and the strong cherry wins. In the stop control table referred to in the case, the stop position with respect to the depression detection position is set so that there is a case where one small win wins and a case where no win wins (no win).

In addition, in the stop control table referred to when JAC1 wins, the stop position with respect to the pressing detection position is set so that a 15-piece small combination wins, and in the stop control table referred to when JAC2 wins, The stop position with respect to the depression detection position is set so that one small winning combination is won.

The winning determination means 140 performs a winning determination process for determining whether or not a winning combination has been won based on the stop state of the first to third reels R1 to R3. Specifically, while referring to the winning determination table stored in the winning determination table storage area 1912 provided in the main ROM of the game information storage means 190a, all of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are stopped. It is determined whether or not the symbol combination displayed on the activated line at the time point is in the form of winning a predetermined winning combination. Then, depending on the combination of symbols displayed on the activated line in the state where each reel is stopped, as shown in FIGS. A winning determination table is prepared so that the determination can be made.

Then, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, processing at the time of winning determination is executed based on the determination result of the winning determination means 140 . As the winning determination processing, for example, the payout control means 150 performs medal payout control processing, the replay processing means 160 performs replay processing, and the game state transition control means 170 performs state transition control processing for shifting the game state. is done.

The payout control means 150 performs payout control processing relating to the payout of medals according to the game result. Specifically, when a small winning combination is won, the number of medals to be paid out in the game is determined based on a predetermined payout for each winning combination, and the medals corresponding to the determined number of payouts are distributed to the hopper unit 320 ( (dispensing device) is controlled to dispense.

The hopper unit 320 pays out the number of medals to be paid out as instructed by the payout control means 150 . The hopper unit 320 is provided with a payout medal detection switch 325 that operates each time one medal is paid out. It is configured to be able to manage the number of medals paid out.

When the credit of medals (internal storage) is permitted, instead of actually paying out medals by the hopper unit 320, credit information is stored in the credit information storage area 1914 provided in the main RAM of the game information storage means 190a. A process of virtually paying out medals is performed by performing a credit addition process of adding the number of payouts to the credited number of credits (the number of credited medals).

When the replay wins, the replay processing means 160 performs replay processing (replay processing) for setting the same preparation state as the previous game without requiring insertion of medals owned by the player for the next game. That is, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when the replay wins, the same number of medals as the number set in the input state in the previous game (the game in which the replay wins) is given to the player ( (including credit medals) are automatically inserted without being used, and the game start operation for the next start lever SL is awaited while the same effective line as in the previous game is set.

The game state transition control means 170, as shown in FIG. 9, performs a game state transition control process for transitioning the game state among a normal state, a bonus establishment state, and a bonus state. In this embodiment, the information indicating the staying game state is stored in the state storage area 1916 provided in the main RAM of the game information storage means 190a. As for the game state transition condition, one condition may be defined, or a plurality of conditions may be defined. When a plurality of conditions are defined, the game state is changed based on the satisfaction of one of the plurality of predetermined conditions or the satisfaction of all of the plurality of predetermined conditions. It is possible to move to another game state.

The normal state is a game state corresponding to the initial state among a plurality of types of game states, and it is possible to shift from the normal state to the bonus establishment state. Specifically, when the big bonus (BB) is won in the normal state, the state shifts to the bonus established state. In the normal state, among the internal lottery tables 1 to 3 shown in FIG. 3, the replay winning probability is set to about 1/7.3, and the big bonus (BB) is set as the lottery target. An internal lottery is performed with reference to an internal lottery table 1. - 特許庁

The bonus establishment state is a game state that shifts to when a big bonus (BB) is won in an internal lottery. In the bonus establishment state, the probability of winning the replay is set to approximately 1/3.9 among the internal lottery tables 1 to 3 shown in FIG. An internal lottery with reference to the lottery table 2 is performed.

In addition, in the bonus established state, the lottery flag corresponding to the big bonus (BB) is maintained in the winning state until the big bonus (BB) is won, and the symbol combination indicating the winning form of the big bonus (BB) is displayed on the activated line. Then, the game state transition control means 170 shifts the game state from the bonus establishment state to the bonus state.

The bonus state is a game state that shifts to when a symbol combination indicating a winning form of a big bonus (BB) is displayed on an active line. In the bonus state, an internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table 3 out of the internal lottery tables 1 to 3 shown in FIG.

In addition, in the bonus state, it is determined whether or not the end condition is satisfied based on the total number of medals paid out according to the bonus state, and when a predetermined number of medals (for example, 100) are paid out, the game is started. The state transition control means 170 performs control to terminate the bonus state and return the game state to the normal state. In this embodiment, the condition for ending the bonus state is determined by the total number of medals paid out, but the condition for ending may be determined by the number of games played in the bonus state or the number of times a small win is won. Also, the bonus state may be one in which the end condition is set so that the game ends after one game.

In addition, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when both the big bonus (BB) and the small combination are won in the bonus establishment state, the winning of the small combination is prioritized over the symbols constituting the winning form of the big bonus (BB). The patterns constituting the form are displayed on the effective line, and when both the big bonus (BB) and the replay are won, the rotating reels are stopped so that the replay wins with priority over the big bonus (BB). A big bonus (BB) is awarded only when the internal lottery results in a loss.

In addition, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, in the normal state and the bonus establishment state, a plurality of types of first winning modes (batting order bells) in which a plurality of types of correct small winning combinations (small winning combination 1 to small winning combination 6) are won without overlapping each other. 1 to batting order bell 6), and in the bonus state, there is a second winning mode (JAC 1) in which a plurality of types of correct small winning combinations are duplicated, and in the bonus state, the internal lottery is the second. The probability of winning two winning modes is lower than the probability of winning one of a plurality of types of first winning modes in an internal lottery in the normal state and the bonus establishment state, and the winning probability of each of the plurality of types of correct small winning combinations is normal and in the bonus winning state. An internal lottery is performed so that the value is higher than the bonus establishment state. That is, in the bonus state of the present embodiment, the probability of winning each of the small winning combination 1 to small winning combination 6, which has a higher payout than the prescribed number of insertions (three coins), is higher than in the normal state or the bonus establishment state, and all the small winning combinations are won. The probability is also higher than in the normal state and the bonus established state, but the probability of obtaining the second winning mode (JAC1) including the small winning combination 1 to the small winning combination 6 with a higher payout than the prescribed number of inputs is the normal state and the bonus established state. is lower than the probability of obtaining the first winning mode (batting order bell 1 to batting order bell 6) including small wins 1 to 6, so medal acquisition rate in bonus state (number of payouts / number of insertions) expected value can be less than 100%.

The privilege granting means 175 changes the production state among a plurality of types of production states including a non-AT state (normal production state) and an AT state (special production state, auxiliary production state), and the production state is changed under a predetermined condition. is set to the AT state, and control is performed to end the AT state when the conditions for ending the AT state are satisfied. In particular, in this embodiment, the effect state is changed when the bonus is established, and can be set to the AT state when the bonus is established.

As described above, in the present embodiment, when the first, second, or third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assist effect is executed, the navigation numeral display object corresponding to the stop operation is displayed. It is erased promptly, and before the erasing of the navigation number display corresponding to the stop operation is completed, the display of the disappearance effect of the navigation number display corresponding to the stop operation is started, and the navigation number display corresponding to the stop operation is started. Since the disappearance effect is displayed even after the object has been erased, the disappearance of the navigator numeral display object corresponding to the stop operation can be given a lingering effect, and an effective performance can be performed.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the first stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assist effect is executed, the effect of disappearing the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 corresponding to the stop operation (the first effect ) is erased, the display of the appearance effect (second effect) of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 corresponding to the next stop operation is started, and the disappearance effect of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 is erased. After that, the appearance effect of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 is displayed.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 21, the disappearance effect moving image (animation) of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 has a display time (8 frames) required to display the appearance effect of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2. is set to end in a short 7 frames (7/30 seconds), and at the timing of T0 (when the first stop operation is executed), the disappearing effect display object IMG5 is superimposed on the first navigation numeral display object IMG1. is displayed to start displaying the disappearance effect of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 (moving image of the disappearance effect of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1), and the effect display object appears superimposed on the second navigation numeral display object IMG2. When IMG4 is displayed and the display of the appearance effect of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 (appearance effect moving image of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2) is started, at the timing of T4 (7 frames after T0), the first After the display of the disappearance effect of the navigation numeral display object IMG1 (the disappearance effect moving image of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1) is completed, the disappearance effect display object IMG5 is erased, and at the timing of T5 (8 frames after T0), the second After the display of the appearance effect of the navigation number display object IMG2 (the appearance effect moving image of the second navigation number display object IMG2) is completed, the appearance effect display object IMG4 is erased.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 21, when the first stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, the disappearing effect display processing of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 and the second navigation In the appearance effect display processing of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2, the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 is displayed before the disappearance effect display processing of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 ends. The display of the appearance effect of IMG2 is started, and the appearance effect of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 is displayed even after the disappearance effect display processing of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 is finished.

In addition, when the second stop operation is performed in the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, the disappearing effect (first effect) of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 corresponding to the stop operation is erased. , the display of the appearance effect (second effect) of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 corresponding to the stop operation to be operated next is started, and even after the disappearance effect of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 is erased, the third navigation The appearance effect of the numerical display object IMG3 is displayed.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 22, the disappearance effect moving image (animation) of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 has a display time (8 frames) required to display the appearance effect of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3. is set to end in a short 7 frames (7/30 seconds), and at the timing of T0 (when the second stop operation is executed), the disappearing effect display object IMG5 is superimposed on the second navigation numeral display object IMG2. is displayed to start the display of the disappearance effect of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 (the disappearance effect moving image of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2), and the effect display object appears superimposed on the third navigation numeral display object IMG3. When IMG4 is displayed and the display of the appearance effect of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 (appearance effect moving image of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3) is started, at the timing of T4 (7 frames after T0), the second After the display of the disappearance effect of the navigation numeral display object IMG2 (the disappearance effect moving image of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2) is completed, the disappearance effect display object IMG5 is erased, and at the timing of T5 (8 frames after T0), the third The display of the appearance effect of the navigation number display object IMG3 (the appearance effect moving image of the third navigation number display object IMG3) is ended, and the appearance effect display object IMG4 is erased.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 22, when the second stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assist effect is executed, the disappearing effect display processing of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 and the third navigation In the appearance effect display processing of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3, the appearance effect display processing of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 is performed before the disappearance effect display processing of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 is completed. The display of the appearance effect of IMG3 is started, and the appearance effect of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 is displayed even after the disappearance effect display processing of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 is finished.

As described above, in the present embodiment, when the first or second stop operation is performed in the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, the disappearance effect of the navigation number display corresponding to the stop operation is performed as follows. Since the effect of the appearance of the navigation numeral display corresponding to the stop operation to be operated is erased earlier, it is possible to prevent misunderstanding of the type of stop button to be operated next, and to perform effective production. can be done.

Further, in the present embodiment, the navigator number display objects IMG1 to 3 of "1", "2", and "3" and the disappearing effect display object IMG5 are drawn on different layers, and the disappearing effect display object IMG5 is drawn on a different layer. , “2”, and “3” are drawn on a layer higher than the layer on which the navigation numeral display items IMG1 to 3 are drawn. For this reason, according to the present embodiment, when the corresponding navigation number display object is erased in response to the stop operation in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, it is made easy to recognize that the navigation number display object is erased. It is possible to perform an effective production.

Further, in the present embodiment, when a stop operation is performed in a pressing order different from the correct hitting order in a game in which the winning assist effect is executed, the navigator number display object being displayed, the appearing effect display object IMG4 being displayed, and the When the disappearing effect display object IMG5 is erased to end the winning assistance effect, and when ending the winning assistance effect, when deleting the displayed navigation number display object, the displayed navigation number display object is reduced to the minimum size. Reduced display (for example, 0% display magnification), gradually increasing the transparency of the displayed navigation number display from 0% to 100%, and responding to a stop operation performed in accordance with the correct hitting order Then, the displayed navigation number display is erased with the same or different display time (long display time or short display time) as when the navigation number display corresponding to the stop operation is erased. Also, in this case, characters such as "Miss!" are displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD to notify that the stop operation was performed in a pressing order different from the correct hitting order.

In addition, in the present embodiment, in the winning assistance effect, navigation voice (first sound, specific effect sound), effect sound (first sound, specific effect sound), effect sound (second sound, effect sound different from specific effect sound The sound device 340 is caused to execute a sound effect for generating a sound effect such as a non-specific effect sound). Here, the navigation voice indicates the correct hitting order (the game information that assists the game or the game information that is advantageous for the player). These are the voice of "naka" indicating the button B2 and the voice of "migi" indicating the stop button B3. In the present embodiment, sound data (sound data) such as a plurality of types of BGM, navigation voices, effect sounds, and sound effects are stored in the WAV file format in the effect data storage area 1930 of the sub-ROM. 180 determines the sound to be output based on the performance pattern determined by the performance lottery table, reproduces the sound data of the determined sound, and outputs the sound from the speaker (acoustic device 340). Further, in this embodiment, a plurality of sound data can be reproduced simultaneously using a plurality of channels, and when a plurality of sound data are reproduced simultaneously, these sound data are synthesized and output to the speaker.

Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 24, sound data such as BGM, navigation voices, sound effects, and sound effects are stereo output data. output from the speaker.

In this embodiment, predetermined BGM is reproduced during the game in the AT state, and in the sound effect, the game start operation for the start lever SL and the first to third stop operations for the stop buttons B1 to B3 are performed. At the trigger, the effect sound and the navigation voice or the performance voice are output superimposed on the BGM. Specifically, when a game start operation is performed with respect to the start lever SL, a navigation appearance sound for producing the appearance of the navigation number displays IMG1 to 3 of "1", "2" and "3" is output as a sound effect. When the first, second, or third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes, a lost navigation sound for erasing the navigation numeral display corresponding to the stop operation is output as a sound effect. The navigation appearance sound also functions as an operation sound indicating that a game start operation has been performed on the start lever SL, and the navigation disappearing sound also functions as an operation sound indicating that a stop operation has been performed on the stop button. .

Further, for example, if the pressing order of the batting order 3 (B2->B1->B3) is the correct batting order, when the game start operation is performed on the start lever SL, the navigation voice of "Naka" is output, and the correct batting order is followed. When the first stop operation is performed, the navigation voice of "hidari" is output, and when the second stop operation is performed in the correct order, the navigation voice of "migi" is output, and the third stop in the correct order. When the stop operation is performed, the effect sound of "get" is output. When the game start operation and the first and second stop operations are performed on the start lever SL in this way, the type of stop button to be operated next is notified by the navigation voice, and when the third stop operation is performed. , to announce that 15 medals have been won (that 15 small wins have been won) by a directed voice.

Further, in the present embodiment, the volume is set in advance for the navigation appearing sound, the navigation disappearing sound, the navigation voice, and the effect voice. The volume peak (maximum volume) occurs at the timing t2 from the start, and the volume peak (maximum volume) occurs at the timing t1 from the start of sound output as shown in FIG. , “Hidari”, “Naka”, and “Migi”, and the production voice of “Get”, as shown in FIGS. Volume is set to generate peaks (maximum volume). The peak value of the volume of the navigation appearing sound, the navigation disappearing sound, the navigation voice, and the effect voice is set to a value larger than the peak value of the volume of the BGM.

Also, if the navigation sound or disappearing navigation sound and the navigation voice or directing sound are generated at the same time, the volume of the navigation appearing sound or disappearing navigation sound is higher than a predetermined value (a value smaller than the peak value, the reference value, or the threshold value). It is set so that the volume of the navigation voice or the effect voice can also be a value greater than a predetermined value during the period when the value is large (volume greater than the predetermined volume), for example, FIGS. 24B to 24F, at timings t2 and t3 when the volume of the navigation sound is greater than the predetermined value, the volume of the navigation voice and effect voice is also greater than the predetermined value. Thus, at timings t2 and t3 when the volume of the lost navigation sound is greater than the predetermined value, the volume of the navigation voice and effect voice is also greater than the predetermined value. However, as shown in FIGS. 24B to 24F, at timing t1 when the volume of the lost navigation sound is greater than the predetermined value, the volume of the navigation voice and effect voice is less than the predetermined value.

In addition, if the navigation sound or disappearing navigation sound and the navigation voice or effect sound are generated at the same time, the volume of the navigation sound or disappearing navigation sound is greater than a predetermined value at the time when the peak of the volume of the navigation sound or effect sound occurs. (volume greater than a predetermined volume), for example, as shown in FIGS. The volume of the sound or the lost navigation sound becomes a value greater than a predetermined value. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 25A to 25D, the game start operation for the start lever SL and the first to third stop operations for the stop buttons B1 to B3 are triggered by the navigation appearance sound or the navigation If the disappearing sound and the navigation voice or the production voice are generated at the same time, it becomes difficult to hear the navigation voice or the production voice.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the volume of the navigation appearing sound or the navigation disappearing sound is set to a predetermined value (predetermined volume) or less at the time when the peak of the volume of the navigation voice or the effect sound occurs. A navigation voice or a production voice is generated.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 26, the sound data of the navigation voices of "Hidari", "Naka", and "Migi" and the effect voice of "Get" in the present embodiment have silence data at the beginning. is provided, and the period from the start of reproduction until a predetermined time (for example, 100 ms) elapses (from the start of reproduction to time t4) is a silent period. Note that the sound data of the navigation voices of "Hidari", "Naka", and "Migi" and the sound data of the effect voice of "Get" are set to the same length (same time). In addition, the silent period of the navigation voice and the production voice is long so that when the sound data of the navigation appearing sound or the navigation disappearing sound is played at the same time, the time when the volume peak of the navigation appearing sound or the navigation disappearing sound occurs is included in the silent period. is set.

In the prize winning assistance effect, a sound effect (predetermined sound effect) for generating a navigation sound and a navigation voice is executed in response to a game start operation on the start lever SL. More specifically, when the start lever SL is pressed (predetermined conditions are met), as shown in FIG. ) at the same time. Then, since the beginning of the sound data of the navigation voice is a silent period, after the silent period of the navigation voice has passed since the sound of the navigation sound started, the sound of the navigation voice of "Naka" will start. , A peak in the volume of the navigation-appearing sound occurs during the silent period of the navigation voice.

In addition, when the first stop operation is performed along the correct hitting order (for example, B2→B1→B3) in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, a sound effect (predetermined sound effect) that generates a lost navigation sound and a navigation voice. to run. Specifically, when a stop button (for example, stop button B2) is pressed (if a predetermined condition is met), as shown in FIG. In the example shown in FIG. 26, the sound data of the navigation voice of "hidari" is reproduced simultaneously. Then, since the beginning of the sound data of the navigation voice is a silent period, after the silent period of the navigation voice has passed after the sound of the lost navigation sound has passed, the sound of the navigation voice of "Hidari" will start. , the volume peak of the lost navigation sound occurs during the silent period of the navigation voice.

In addition, when the second stop operation is performed along the correct hitting order (for example, B2→B1→B3) in the game in which the prize-winning assist effect is executed, a sound effect (predetermined sound effect) that generates a lost navigation sound and a navigation voice. to run. Specifically, when a stop button (for example, stop button B1) is pressed (when a predetermined condition is met), as shown in FIG. In the example shown in FIG. 26, the sound data of the navigation voice of "Migi" is reproduced simultaneously. Then, since the beginning of the sound data of the navigation voice is a silent period, after the silent period of the navigation voice has passed after the disappearing navigation sound starts to be emitted, the navigation voice of "Migi" will start to be emitted. , the volume peak of the lost navigation sound occurs during the silent period of the navigation voice.

In addition, when the third stop operation is performed along the correct hitting order (for example, B2 → B1 → B3) in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, a sound effect (predetermined sound effect) that generates a navigation disappearing sound and an effect sound. to run. Specifically, when a stop button (for example, stop button B3) is pressed (when a predetermined condition is met), as shown in FIG. In the example shown in FIG. 26, the sound data of the effect sound of "get") is reproduced at the same time. Then, since the beginning of the sound data of the sound effect is a silent period, the sound of the sound effect of "get" will start after the soundless period of the sound effect has passed since the sound of the navigation disappearing sound started. , the volume peak of the lost navigation sound occurs during the silent period of the effect sound.

Also, when the stop button (for example, stop button B3) related to the third stop operation performed along the correct hitting order (for example, B2→B1→B3) in the game in which the winning assist effect is executed is released. , to execute a sound presentation for generating a medal payout sound. In this embodiment, the winning determination process is performed by the winning determination means 140 when the pressed state of the stop button related to the third stop operation is released, and the payout control means 150 performs the winning determination process based on the result of the winning determination. Since medal payout control processing and the like are performed, when the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, a sound effect of generating the payout sound of the medals accompanying the payout of the medals is performed. let it run.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the game start operation for the start lever SL and the first to third stop operations for the stop buttons B1 to B3 in the winning assist effect are triggered by the navigation appearing sound or the navigation disappearing sound. A sound effect that generates a navigation voice or a sound effect is executed, and in this case, when the volume of the navigation sound or the effect sound peaks, the volume of the navigation sound or the disappearance sound is less than or equal to a predetermined value (predetermined volume). Since the navigation appearing sound or the navigation disappearing sound and the navigation voice or the performance voice are generated so that the navigation voice and the performance voice can be easily heard, an effective performance can be performed. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 26, the sound data of the navigation voice and the effect voice of the present embodiment is provided with silence data at the beginning, and a predetermined time (for example, 100 ms) has elapsed since the start of playback. The period until (from the start of reproduction to the time t4) is a silent period. And when executing a sound effect that generates a navigation voice or the like in the winning auxiliary effect, by simultaneously reproducing the sound data of the navigation sound or the navigation disappearance sound and the sound data of the navigation voice or the effect sound When the volume peak of the lost navigation sound occurs, the navigation voice or the effect sound is not generated, and the navigation voice or the effect sound is generated after the silence period of the navigation sound or the effect sound has passed, so the sound overlap is reduced. It is possible to make it easier to hear the navigation appearing sound, the navigation disappearing sound, the navigation voice, and the performance voice, and to perform an effective performance.

Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 26A to 26D, the volume of the navigation sound and the navigation disappearing sound is set so that the volume attenuates after passing the peak. When executing a sound effect that generates such as, by simultaneously playing the sound data of the navigation appearing sound or the navigation disappearing sound and the sound data of the navigation voice or the effect sound, the volume of the navigation appearing sound or the navigation disappearing sound is attenuated. Since the navigation voice or effect sound is generated after the start of the navigation sound, the volume of the navigation sound or disappearance sound can be a predetermined value (predetermined volume) or less at the time when the peak of the volume of the navigation voice or effect sound occurs. , the navigation voice and the performance voice can be made easier to hear, and effective performance can be performed.

In addition, in the present embodiment, when executing a sound effect that generates a navigation voice or the like in the winning assistance effect, a silent period of the navigation voice or the effect sound has elapsed since the sound of the navigation appearing sound or the navigation disappearing sound was started. Since sound overlap can be reduced by starting to output the navigation voice or the performance voice after the navigation voice or the performance voice, the rise in temperature of the speaker can be suppressed, and the occurrence of failure of the speaker can be suppressed.

Further, in the present embodiment, in the case of executing a sound effect for generating a navigation voice or the like in the winning assist effect, when the game start operation is performed on the start lever SL, when the first stop operation is performed, 2 When the third stop operation is performed and when the third stop operation is performed, the length of the silent period of the navigation voice or the effect voice is the same, so that the player performs various operations before the navigation voice or It is possible to keep the period until the production sound is generated constant, so that the player does not feel uncomfortable.

In addition, in the present embodiment, when a stop operation is performed in a pressing order different from the correct hitting order in a game in which the winning assist effect is executed, a sound effect is executed to generate a warning sound and a production sound of "miss", and the correct hitting order is executed. It notifies that the stop operation was performed in a different order of pressing. In this case as well, the same technique as in the case where the stop operation is performed in the order of the correct strokes in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed can be adopted, and the warning sound is emitted at the time when the volume peak of the effect sound of "miss" occurs. It is possible to generate a warning sound and an effect sound of "miss" so that the volume becomes equal to or less than a predetermined value (predetermined volume). Specifically, a game in which silent data is provided at the beginning of the sound data of the effect voice of "Miss", and a silent period is set until a predetermined time (for example, 100 ms) elapses from the start of reproduction, and the winning assist effect is executed. 2. Triggered by the pressing operation of the stop button related to the stop operation performed in the pressing order different from the correct hitting order, the sound data of the warning sound and the production voice of "miss" are reproduced at the same time. Then, since the beginning of the sound data of the sound effect of "Miss" is a silent period, the sound of the sound effect of "Miss" will be emitted after the silent period of the sound effect has passed since the warning sound started to be emitted. is started, and a peak in the volume of the warning sound occurs during the silent period of the effect sound. As a result, it is possible to make it easier to hear the production voice of "Miss", and it is possible to perform an effective production.

Further, in the present embodiment, regarding the effect mode of the prize-winning assist effect, the case where the pressing order of the batting order 3 (B2→B1→B3) is the correct batting order has been described as an example. Even when the pressing order of the batting order 5 or the batting order 6 is the correct batting order, the winning assist performance is executed in the same performance mode.

2. Second embodiment

In the present embodiment, detailed description of the configuration and control method common to those of the first embodiment will be omitted, and main differences will be described. The control method employed in the gaming machine of this embodiment will be described below with reference to FIGS. 27 to 29. FIG. FIG. 27 is a flow chart showing an example of processing in the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, and FIGS. 28 and 29 are diagrams showing images displayed in the winning assistance effect in the gaming machine according to the present embodiment. .

First, in the present embodiment, in a game in a non-AT state (a game in which no winning assist effect is executed), when the batting order bell is won, when the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the correct batting order ), the characters “GET!” are displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD, and a special effect is executed in which the effect sound of “GET” is output from the speaker.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, the character A image IMG10, which is the effect image in which the character A performs a predetermined action, is displayed on the liquid crystal display. Along with displaying on the LCD, a speech effect (prize-assisting interlocking effect) for outputting the speech S1 of the character A (for example, "Who's next!") from the speaker is executed. At this time, in the present embodiment, the characters "GET!"

That is, in the present embodiment, when the characters "GET!" There are cases. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the execution of the process of displaying the characters "GET!" is used as a trigger to determine and output the effect sound.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 27, when the winning assist effect or the specific effect is selected by the effect lottery in the game in which the batting order bell is won (Y in step S100, Y in step S101), the correct batting order is followed. When the third stop operation is performed (when 15 small wins are won) (Y in step S102), the characters "GET!" is determined (step S104), and if the prize-winning effect is being executed (Y in step S104), the line S1 of character A (for example, "Who's next!") is output from the speaker (step S105), if the winning assistance effect is not being executed (N in step S104), the effect sound of "get" is output from the speaker (step S106).

For example, in a game in a non-AT state (a game in which no winning assist effect is executed), when the hitting order bell is won, if the third stop operation is performed along the correct hitting order (if a 15-piece small winning combination wins), FIG. As shown, the characters "GET!"

Further, for example, in the examples shown in FIGS. 10, 12, and 14, when the third (last) stop operation is performed along the order of correct strokes, as shown in FIGS. 16(A) to 16(H)), the display of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 is erased and the disappearance effect of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 (display of disappearance effect image IMG5) is erased. , as shown in FIG. 29(I), the character "GET!" is displayed, and as shown in FIG. Who is it!") is output from the speaker.

As described above, in the present embodiment, when the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assist effect is executed, the character A image IMG10 and the specific processing A for displaying the characters "GET!" is executed, and with the execution of the specific process A instead of the specific process B as a trigger, the dialogue S1 of the character A (the effect sound corresponding to the character A image IMG10) is output from the speaker.

Thus, in the present embodiment, the type of effect (game situation) is determined with the execution of the specific process A for displaying the characters "GET!" For the same display (display of "GET!"), the effect sound can be appropriately switched according to the type of effect, and effective effect can be performed.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, the speech S1 of character A (for example, "Next is Who are you!") is output from the speaker. Here, as in the above embodiment, if the production voice of "get" is output in conjunction with the display of "GET!" In this case, instead of the effect sound of "get", the speech S1 of character A (for example, "Who's next!") is output from the speaker, so that the effect sound can be made easier to hear, and the player feels uncomfortable. You can direct it so as not to give it.

In the present embodiment, the operation of pressing the stop button related to the third stop operation in accordance with the correct stroke order in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, or the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assist effect is executed, and the winning judgment processing (15 small wins Winning a prize) may be used as a trigger to execute a specific process A of displaying the characters "GET!" and a specific process B of displaying the character A image IMG10.

Similarly, in a game in a non-AT state (a game that does not execute a winning assistance effect), when the hitting order bell is won, the stop button is pressed according to the third stop operation in accordance with the correct hitting order, and in the non-AT state. In the game, when the batting order bell is won, the stop button depression operation related to the third stop operation in the correct batting order is canceled. When the stop operation is performed and the winning determination processing (that the 15-card winning combination is won) is performed, the specific processing A for displaying the characters "GET!" may be executed.

Narrower than the distance A1 between the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 and the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 in the second prize winning assistance performance of FIG. 41(B), and the third navigation numeral in the first prize winning assistance performance of FIG. The distance B2 between the display object IMG3 and the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 is longer than the distance A2 between the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 and the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 in the second prize winning assistance effect of FIG. 41(B). narrow. 41(A) is the same as FIG. 37, and FIG. 41(B) is the same as FIG. 38(A). Further, in this case, the navigation numeral display object may be enlarged and displayed so that A1<B1 and A2<B2 in the second winning assistance effect.

As described above, in the first winning assistance effect of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 37, since the navigation number display object is displayed at the position corresponding to each stop button, the correspondence relationship between the stop button and the navigation number display object can be easily understood, the first reel R1, the stop button B1, and the navigation number display displayed at the first display position are on the same straight line (third left imaginary straight line LL3), and the second reel R2 and the stop button B2 and the navigation number display displayed at the second display position are on the same straight line (third middle imaginary straight line CL3), and the third reel R3 and the stop button B3 are displayed at the third display position. Since the navigator number display objects are present on the same straight line (third right imaginary straight line RL3), it is possible to easily understand the correspondence relationship between the reels, the stop button, and the navigation number display objects. As a result, it is possible to easily recognize the order of operations, and it is possible to perform an effective presentation.

In addition, in the second winning assistance effect of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. As a result, the correspondence relationship between the stop button and the navigation number display can be made easier to understand, and as shown in FIG. object is on the same straight line (second left imaginary straight line LL2), and the second reel R2, the stop button B2 and the navigation numeral display object displayed at the second display position are on the same straight line (second middle imaginary straight line CL2). ), and the third reel R3, the stop button B3, and the navigation numeral display displayed at the third display position are on the same straight line (second right imaginary straight line RL2). It is also possible to make it easier to understand the correspondence with the navigation numeral display. As a result, it is possible to easily recognize the order of operations, and it is possible to perform an effective presentation.

In addition, in the first prize winning assistance effect of the present embodiment, since the navigation number displays IMG1 to 3 of "1", "2", and "3" are displayed smaller than in the second prize winning assistance effect, can be lowered relative to the degree of attention when the second prize winning assistance performance is executed, and attention can be paid to the display of other performance images as well.

For this reason, in the present embodiment, in principle, the second prize winning effect is executed in the AT state, but the number of medals obtained in the situation where a specific effect such as a continuous effect or a story effect is executed, or in the last game in the AT state In certain situations, such as displaying the result of the assist time game such as the number of games played in the assist time game (performing a specific display), the first prize winning assist effect is executed and other effect images are displayed. can be made to Also, for example, a first AT state and a second AT state are provided as AT states, and a shift between the first AT state and the second AT state is possible, and in the first AT state, a first prize-winning assistance effect is executed and a story effect is executed. However, in the second AT state, the second winning assistance effect may be executed.

In addition, in the first prize winning assistance effect of the present embodiment, since each navigation number display object (adjacent navigation number display objects) is displayed at a narrower interval than the second prize winning assistance production, the movement distance of the player's line of sight is reduced. It is possible to reduce the burden on the player.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the pressing order of batting order 3 (B2→B1→B3) is the correct batting order in the second winning assist effect, in the situation shown in FIG. Although it is not positioned on the second right imaginary straight line RL2, in the situation shown in FIG. 40, the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 is positioned on the second right imaginary straight line RL2. focuses on the third navigation numeral display object IMG3), the third reel R3 and the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 can be positioned on the second right imaginary straight line RL2, and the reel and the stop button It is possible to make it easy to understand the correspondence with the navigation numeral display.

Further, in the present embodiment, as in the first embodiment, in the first prize winning assist effect or the second prize winning assist effect, as shown in FIGS. 2” and “3” navigation number displays IMG1 to 3 are set to have the same time (for example, 5 frames) from the execution of the stop operation to the erasing of each of the navigation number displays IMG1-3. It is possible to prevent a sense of incompatibility from being given, and an effective presentation can be performed.

Further, in the present embodiment, the time from the execution of the stop operation to the erasing of the navigator number display is the same (for example, 5 frames) in the first winning assistance effect and the second winning assistance effect. Therefore, even between the first prize-winning assistance performance and the second prize-winning assistance performance, it is possible to avoid giving a sense of incongruity to the erasing of the navigation numeral display, and to perform an effective performance.

In the present embodiment, the time from the execution of the stop operation to the erasing of the navigation number displays IMG1 to 3 for each of the navigation number displays IMG1, 2, and 3 is the same. Either one of the first prize-winning assistance effect and the second prize-winning assistance effect may be performed. 3 may not necessarily be the same or may be different.

In addition, the first winning assistance effect and the second winning assistance effect may differ in the time from the execution of the stop operation to the erasing of the navigation number display, and the first winning assistance effect is the second winning assistance effect. The time from execution of the stop operation to erasure of the navigation number display may be longer or shorter than the performance.

Further, in the present embodiment, the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 may be positioned on the second right imaginary straight line RL2 in the situation shown in FIG. 39(B).

Further, in the present embodiment, in the first prize winning assist effect and the second prize winning assist effect, each navigation numeral display object is positioned above each stop button B1 to B3 so that the navigation numeral display object corresponding to each stop button is positioned. For example, when the pressing order of hitting order 5 (B3→B1→B2) in the first prize-winning assist effect is the correct hitting order, as shown in FIG. 42A, the left end of the stop button B1 The second navigation numeral display object IMG2 (at least a part of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2) is located in the first virtual area E1, which is the area (width) between and the right end of the stop button B2. A third navigation numeral display object IMG3 (at least a part of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3) is located in a second virtual area E2 that is an area (width) between the left end and the right end, and the left end of the stop button B3 and the The first navigation numeral display object IMG1 (at least a part of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1) is displayed so as to be positioned in the third virtual area E3 which is the area (width) between the right end and the second prize winning assistance. Similarly, in the production, as shown in FIG. 42(B), the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 (at least a part of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2) is positioned in the first virtual area E1, and the second virtual display object IMG2 is positioned. A third navigation numeral display object IMG3 (at least part of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3) is located within the area E2, and a first navigation numeral display object IMG1 (first navigation numeral display object IMG1) is located within the third virtual area E3. at least a part of) may be displayed so as to be positioned.

In the example shown in FIG. 42, the ratio of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 included in the first virtual area E1 is higher than that of the second winning assistance effect shown in FIG. 42(B). The winning assist effect is larger (for example, 100% for the first winning assist effect and 10% for the second winning assist effect). Similarly, the proportion of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 included in the third virtual area E3 is higher in the first prize winning assistance effect shown in FIG. 42(A) than in the second prize winning assistance effect shown in FIG. 42(B). is large (for example, 100% in the first prize-winning assistance effect and 10% in the second prize-winning assistance effect). As a result, in the first prize winning assistance effect, the navigation number display objects IMG1 to 3 of "1", "2", and "3" are displayed smaller than in the second prize winning assistance production, but the second navigation number display object IMG2 is displayed in the second size. Since the ratio of being included in one virtual area E1 and the ratio of the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 being included in the third virtual area E3 are large, the order of operations can be easily recognized, and effective presentation can be performed. It is possible to prevent operation errors in the pressing order as much as possible. The proportion of each navigator number display object included in each virtual area may be larger, smaller, or the same in the first prize winning assistance effect than in the second prize winning assistance effect, or may be the same. In some navigation number displays, the first prize winning assistance effect is larger than the second prize winning assistance effect, but the other navigation number display objects may be smaller in the first prize winning assistance effect than in the second prize winning assistance effect. However, some navigation number displays are larger or smaller for the first prize winning assistance effect than for the second prize winning assistance effect, but other navigation number display objects are the same for the second prize winning assistance effect and the first prize winning assistance effect. may be

In this example, when the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the first winning assist effect or the second winning assist effect is executed in the AT state, the display of the number of won medals is updated, and the number of medals is increased. The time from the start of updating the display of the acquired number to the end of updating is longer than the time from the start to the end of erasing the third navigator number display IMG3 (predetermined game assistance display) (for example, 5 frames) ( For example, 7 frames), and the time to start updating the display of the number of medals acquired is set before erasing the disappearance effect (effect) of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 (for example, T3 in the example shown in FIG. 23). T1, which is the timing before), and the time to finish updating the display of the number of medals acquired is set after the disappearance effect of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 is erased (for example, shown in FIG. 23 In the example, the timing is set to the timing eight frames after T0, which is the timing after T3), and the display of the number of earned medals is updated in the game in which the first prize winning assist effect or the second prize winning assist effect is executed in the AT state. In this case, the display of the number of acquired medals is updated before erasing the disappearance effect of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3, and the number of acquired medals is displayed after erasing the disappearance effect of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3. You may make it finish the update of a display.

In this way, after confirming the effect of erasing the third navigation numeral display object IMG3, it is possible to confirm the effect of updating the display of the number of acquired medals, so that the progress of the game can be easily grasped. It is possible to perform an effective production.

In the present embodiment, the timing to start updating the display of the number of acquired medals may be set after the third navigation numeral display IMG3 is erased. Set after erasing is completed and before erasing the disappearance effect of the third navigator numeral display object IMG3 (for example, in the example shown in FIG. 23, the timing is set after 6 frames have passed from T0, which is the timing after T2). You may do so.

Further, in the present embodiment, the time from the start to the end of updating the display of the number of medals acquired is longer than the time from the start to the end of erasing the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 (for example, 5 frames). (for example, 7 frames), the display of the number of acquired medals started to be updated before the disappearance effect of the third navigation numeral display IMG3 was erased, and the disappearance effect of the third navigation numeral display IMG3 was erased. The update of the display of the number of won medals can be finished later when at least one of the first prize winning assist effect and the second prize winning assist effect is executed, and when the other win assist effect is executed, The time from the start to the end of updating the display of the number of medals acquired is shorter (for example, 4 frames) than the time from the start to the end of erasing the third navigation numeral display IMG3 (for example, 5 frames), or It may be set to the same time (for example, 5 frames), or it may be possible to start updating the display of the number of acquired medals after erasing the disappearance effect of the third navigation numeral display object IMG3. The update of the display of the number of acquired medals may be finished before erasing the disappearance effect of the navigation numeral display object IMG3. Also, when the other prize-winning effect is executed, the disappearance effect may not be displayed. In this case, the display of the number of won medals is started to be updated before the third navigator number display object IMG3 is erased. , the update of the display of the number of medals obtained may be ended after the third navigator number display IMG3 is erased.

Further, in the present embodiment, the total number of medals paid out in the AT state may be displayed instead of the number of medals obtained.

In addition, in the first winning assistance effect and the second winning assistance effect of the present embodiment, the navigation numeral display object including the disappearing effect may be the "game assistance display object", and in this case, the navigation numeral display object is erased. may be set as the timing at which the display of the disappearing effect ends (the timing at which the disappearing effect is erased).

Further, in the present embodiment, when the stop button is pressed, erasing of the navigation number display corresponding to the stop operation is started and display of the disappearance effect of the navigation number display is started. Alternatively, the update of the display of the number of medals obtained may be started when the pressing operation on the stop button is released. In this case, if the pressing operation of the stop button related to the third stop operation is canceled after the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 has been erased, the medal will be issued after the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 has been erased. will start updating the display of the number of acquisitions.

The specific navigation display object IMG20 displayed at the second reel R2, the stop button B2, and the specific navigation display object IMG20 displayed at the second display position are on the same straight line (second left imaginary straight line LL2). The third reel R3, the stop button B3, and the specific navigation display object IMG20 displayed at the third display position are present on the same straight line (the second right virtual straight line RL2). Therefore, the correspondence between the reels, the stop buttons, and the specific navigation display object IMG20 can be made easy to understand, and an effective presentation can be performed.

In addition, in the first specific role winning assist effect of the present embodiment, the specific navigation display object IMG20 is displayed smaller than the second specific role winning assist effect. It is possible to make the effect relatively lower than when the effect is executed, and it is possible to draw attention to the display of other effect images as well.

For this reason, in the present embodiment, as in the first prize winning assist effect and the second prize winning assist effect, in principle, the second specific role winning assist effect is executed in the AT state, but in a specific situation, the first specific role winning It is possible to make the player pay attention to the display of other effect images by executing an auxiliary effect. Also, for example, a first AT state and a second AT state are provided as AT states, and transition is possible between the first AT state and the second AT state. is executed, and in the second AT state, the second specific role winning assist effect may be executed.

In addition, in the first specific role winning assistance effect of the present embodiment, each specific navigation display object IMG20 (adjacent specific navigation display object IMG20) is displayed at a narrower interval than in the second specific role winning assistance production, so that the player's The moving distance of the line of sight can be reduced, and the burden on the player can be reduced.

In addition, in the present embodiment, in the same way as the first prize-winning assist effect, etc., in the first specific role-winning assist effect or the second specific role-winning assist effect, from the execution of the stop operation on each specific navigation display object IMG 20 to the erasure Since the time period is set to be the same (for example, 5 frames), it is possible to avoid giving a sense of incongruity to the erasing of the specific navigation display object IMG20, and it is possible to perform an effective presentation.

In addition, in the present embodiment, in the same way as the first prize winning assist effect, etc., in the first specific role winning assist effect and the second specific role winning assist effect, the time from the execution of the stop operation to the deletion of the specific navigation display object IMG20 are the same (for example, 5 frames), so that the deletion of the specific navigation display object IMG20 does not give a sense of incongruity between the first specific role winning assist effect and the second specific role winning assist effect. can be used, and effective production can be performed.

In the present embodiment, the time from the execution of the stop operation on each specific navigation display object IMG20 to the erasing of the specific navigation display object IMG20 is set to be the same for the first specific role winning assist effect and the second Either one of the two specific role winning assistance effects may be sufficient, and in the other winning assistance effect, the time from the execution of the stop operation on each specific navigation display object IMG20 to the deletion of the specific navigation display object IMG20 is necessarily the same. may be different.

In the first specific role winning assist effect and the second specific role winning assist effect, the time from the execution of the stop operation to the deletion of the specific navigation display object IMG 20 may be different. The time from execution of the stop operation to erasing of the specific navigation display object IMG20 may be longer or shorter than in the second specific combination winning assist effect.

In addition, in the present embodiment, in the first specific role winning assist effect and the second specific role winning assist effect, the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to each stop button is positioned above each stop button B1 to B3. All that is necessary is to display the specific navigation display object IMG20. For example, in the first specific role winning assistance effect, as shown in FIG. IMG20 (at least part of the specific navigation display object IMG20) is positioned, the specific navigation display object IMG20 (at least part of the specific navigation display object IMG20) corresponding to the stop button B2 is positioned in the second virtual area E2, and the second 3. The specific navigation display object IMG20 (at least a part of the specific navigation display object IMG20) corresponding to the stop button B3 is displayed in the virtual area E3, and the second specific role winning assistance effect is performed in the same way as shown in FIG. As shown in (B), the specific navigation display object IMG20 (at least a part of the specific navigation display object IMG20) corresponding to each stop button is displayed in the first virtual area E1, the second virtual area E2, and the third virtual area E3. may be displayed so as to be positioned.

In the example shown in FIG. 46, the proportion of the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the stop button B1 included in the first virtual area E1 is higher than that of the second specific role winning assist effect shown in FIG. A) is larger in the first specific role winning assist effect (for example, 100% in the first specific role winning assist effect and 10% in the second specific role winning assist effect). Similarly, the proportion of the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the stop button B3 included in the third virtual area E3 is higher than that of the second specific role winning assistance effect shown in FIG. 1 specific role winning assist effect is larger (for example, 100% for the first specific role winning assist effect and 10% for the second specific role winning assist effect). As a result, in the first specific role winning assist effect, each specific navigation display object IMG20 is displayed smaller than in the second specific role winning assist effect, but the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the stop button B1 is within the first virtual area E1. and the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the stop button B3 is included in the third virtual area E3. It is possible to prevent operation errors in the pressing order as much as possible. It should be noted that the ratio of each specific navigation display object included in each virtual area may be larger, smaller, or the same for the first specific role winning auxiliary effect than the second specific role winning auxiliary effect. Well, some specific navigation display objects are larger in the first specific role winning auxiliary effect than the second specific role winning auxiliary effect, but other specific navigation display objects are the first than the second specific role winning auxiliary effect The specific role winning assist effect may be smaller, and some specific navigation display items are larger or smaller than the second specific role winning assist effect, but other specific navigation displays The object may be the same in the second specific role winning assist effect and the first specific role winning assist effect.

Further, in the present embodiment, in the first prize winning assistance effect or the one specific winning prize assist effect, the position of the third left imaginary straight line LL3 is not limited to the position passing through the center of the stop button B1, but the first imaginary area E1. The position of the third middle imaginary straight line CL3 may be any position as long as at least part of the navigation number display object or the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the stop button B1 is included in the position of the stop button Any position where at least part of the navigation number display object or specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the stop button B2 is included in the second virtual area E2 is not limited to the position passing through the center of B2. The position of the third right imaginary straight line RL3 is not limited to the position passing through the center of the stop button B3. It may be any position as long as it includes at least part of the object IMG20.

Similarly, in the second prize winning assist effect or the second special winning prize assist effect, the position of the first left imaginary straight line LL1 is not limited to the position passing through the center of the width of the first reel R1, but is within the first virtual area E1. may be any position as long as it includes at least a part of the navigation number display object or the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the stop button B1, and the position of the first middle imaginary straight line CL1 is the position of the second reel. It is not limited to the position passing through the center of the width of R2, but any position where at least part of the navigation number display object or specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the stop button B2 is included in the second virtual area E2. The position of the first right imaginary straight line RL1 is not limited to the position passing through the center of the width of the third reel R3. It may be any position as long as it contains at least part of the object or specific navigation display object IMG20.

That is, in the present embodiment, the positions of the third left virtual straight line LL3 in the first prize winning assist effect or the first specific role winning assist effect and the first left virtual straight line LL1 in the second prize winning assist effect or the second special role winning assist effect may be at the same position or at different positions, and the third middle virtual straight line CL3 in the first prize winning assistance effect or the first specific role winning assist effect The position of the first middle virtual straight line CL1 in the auxiliary effect may be the same position or a different position, and may be the third right virtual straight line RL3 in the first prize winning auxiliary effect or the first special prize winning auxiliary effect. The position of the first right imaginary straight line RL1 in the second prize winning assistance effect or the second special winning prize assist effect may be the same position or may be different.

Further, in the present embodiment, the intervals between the specific navigation display objects IMG20 in the first special prize winning assistance effect are narrower than the intervals between the navigation numeral display objects in the second winning assistance effect. For example, as shown in FIGS. 41(B) and 45(A), the specific navigation display object IMG20 at the first display position and the specific navigation display object IMG20 at the second display position in the first specific role winning assist effect of FIG. 45(A) The distance B3 between the display object IMG20 is narrower than the distance A1 between the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 and the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 in the second winning assistance effect shown in FIG. The interval B4 between the specific navigation display object IMG20 at the second display position and the specific navigation display object IMG20 at the third display position in the first specific role winning assist effect is the third navigation display object in the second prize winning assist effect of FIG. 41(B). It becomes narrower than the space A2 between the numeric display object IMG3 and the first navigation numeric display object IMG1. In this case, the navigation numeral display object may be enlarged and displayed so that A1<B3 and A2<B4 in the second winning assistance effect.

Further, in the present embodiment, in the same way as the first prize winning assist effect, when the specific navigation display object IMG20 is erased in the first specific role winning assist effect or the second specific role winning assist effect, the specific navigation display object IMG20 You may make it generate a disappearance effect for . In this example, when the third stop operation is performed in the game in which the first specific role winning assist effect or the second specific role winning assist effect is executed in the AT state, the display of the number of won medals is updated, and medals are won. Set the time from the start of update of the number display to the end of update to be longer than the time from the start to the end of erasing the specific navigation display object IMG20 (predetermined game assistance display object) corresponding to the third stop operation. Then, the timing to start updating the display of the number of acquired medals is set before erasing the disappearance effect (effect) of the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the third stop operation, and the display of the number of acquired medals is set. Set the time to end the update after erasing the disappearance effect of the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the third stop operation, and execute the first specific role winning assist effect or the second specific role winning assist effect in the AT state. In the case of updating the display of the number of medals obtained in the game, the display of the number of medals obtained is started to be updated before erasing the disappearance effect of the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the third stop operation. The update of the display of the number of acquired medals may be terminated after the disappearance effect of the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the second stop operation is erased.

In this way, after confirming the effect of erasing the specific navigation display object IMG20 corresponding to the third stop operation, it is possible to confirm the effect of updating the display of the number of acquired medals, thereby progressing the game. can be easily grasped, and effective production can be performed.

4. Fourth embodiment

In this embodiment, detailed descriptions of the configuration and control method common to the third embodiment will be omitted, and main differences will be described. Hereinafter, the control method employed in the gaming machine of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 47 and 48. FIG. FIG. 47 and FIG. 48 are diagrams for explaining the correspondence relationship among reels, stop buttons, navigation numeral display objects, and specific navigation display objects in the gaming machine of this embodiment.

First, in the present embodiment, as the winning assist effect, the first winning assist effect, the second winning assist effect, the first specific role winning assist effect, and the second winning assist effect among the An example of a game assistance effect) and a second specific role winning assistance effect (an example of a second game assistance effect) are executed.

Also, in this embodiment, the design of the image of the specific navigation display object IMG20 in the second specific role winning assistance effect is different from that of the third embodiment, and as shown in FIG. It has a well designed design. In addition, in the second specific role winning assistance effect, the specific navigation display object IMG20 is displayed larger than the second winning assistance effect, so the area occupied by the image of the specific navigation display object IMG20 shown in FIG. It is larger than any of the navigation number displays IMG1 to 3 of "1", "2", and "3" in the presentation.

For example, as shown in FIGS. 38A and 38B, the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 is displayed in the second size (for example, 100% display magnification) in the second winning assistance effect, and the second navigation numeral Display object IMG2 is displayed in the fifth size (for example, display magnification of 80%), and third navigator number display object IMG3 is displayed in the first size (for example, display magnification of 60%); FIG. As shown in , when the specific navigation display object IMG20 is displayed in the third size (for example, a display magnification of 140%) in the second specific role winning assistance effect, the specific navigation display object IMG20 is displayed with each navigation number. The image occupies a larger area than the object.

Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 47(A) and (B), on a straight line passing through the center of the width of each reel and perpendicular to the bottom surface of the slot machine (housing) , each stop button is provided so that the center of the width of the stop button corresponding to each reel is positioned. FIG. 47(A) shows the case of executing the second winning assistance effect shown in FIGS. 38(A) and (B), and FIG. 47(B) shows the second specific effect shown in FIGS. This is the case of executing the role winning auxiliary effect.

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the positions of the first left imaginary straight line LL1 and the third left imaginary straight line LL3 are the same position (same line), and the first middle imaginary straight line CL1 and the third middle imaginary straight line CL3 The positions are the same position (same line), and the positions of the first right imaginary straight line RL1 and the third right imaginary straight line RL3 are the same position (same line). In other words, the first left imaginary straight line LL1 and the third left imaginary straight line LL3 are the same, the first middle imaginary straight line CL1 and the third middle imaginary straight line CL3 are the same, and the first right imaginary straight line CL1 and the third middle imaginary straight line CL3 are the same. The imaginary straight line RL1 and the third right imaginary straight line RL3 are the same.

Further, in the present embodiment, the display position of the navigation number display object in the second prize winning assistance effect and the display position of the specific navigation display object IMG20 in the second specific role winning assistance effect are the same (similarly). Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 47(A) and (B), in the second specific role winning assistance effect, the specific navigation display object IMG20 is displayed at the same position (similarly) as in the first winning assistance effect. .

Therefore, in the present embodiment, the intervals between the respective navigator number displays in the second prize winning assistance effect are wider than the intervals between the respective specific navigation symbols IMG20 in the second special prize winning assistance effect. For example, as shown in FIGS. 47A and 47B, the interval A1 between the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 and the third navigation numeral display object IMG3 in the second prize winning assist effect of FIG. 47(B), the distance A5 between the specific navigation display object IMG20 at the first display position and the specific navigation display object IMG20 at the second display position in the second specific role winning assist effect is wider than the distance A5, The distance A2 between the third navigation number display object IMG3 and the first navigation number display object IMG1 in the prize winning assistance effect is the same as the specific navigation display object IMG20 at the second display position in the second specific role winning assistance effect shown in FIG. 47(B). It is wider than the distance A6 from the specific navigation display object IMG20 at the third display position.

Even in this way, the same effects as those of the third embodiment can be obtained. display a navigation number display object or a specific navigation display object IMG20, and since each reel, each stop button and each navigation number display object or specific navigation display object IMG20 exist on the same straight line, the reel, the stop button and the navigation number are displayed. It is possible to make it easy to understand the correspondence with the display object or the specific navigation display object IMG20, and to perform an effective presentation.

Further, in the second prize winning assistance effect of the present embodiment, the navigation number display objects IMG1 to 3 of "1", "2", and "3" are displayed smaller than the specific navigation display object IMG20 of the second specific role winning assistance production. Therefore, it is possible to make the player's attention to the display relatively lower than when the second special winning prize assist effect is executed, and it is possible to make the player pay attention to the display of other effect images as well.

In addition, in the second specific prize winning assistance effect of the present embodiment, the specific navigation display object IMG20 is displayed at the same position (similarly) as the display position of the navigation number display object in the second prize winning assistance effect. The correspondence relationship between the reels, the stop buttons, the navigation numeral display items or the specific navigation display items IMG20 can be made the same between the auxiliary performance and the second specific role winning auxiliary performance, and effective performance can be performed. .

Further, in the present embodiment, as in the third embodiment, in the second winning assistance effect, when the stop operation is performed on each of the navigation number displays IMG1 to 3 of "1", "2", and "3" The time from when the stop operation is executed to the erasing of each specific navigator display object IMG 20 is the same (for example, 5 frames). For example, 5 frames), it is possible to make the deletion of the navigation number display object and the specific navigation display object IMG20 not give a sense of incongruity, and it is possible to perform an effective presentation.

In addition, in the present embodiment, as in the third embodiment, in the second prize winning assistance effect and the second specific winning prize assist effect, the navigation number display object and the specific navigation display object IMG20 are erased from the execution of the stop operation. Since the time until is the same (for example, 5 frames), even between the second prize winning assist effect and the second specific role winning assist effect, the deletion of the navigation number display object and the specific navigation display object IMG20 It is possible to avoid giving a sense of incongruity, and it is possible to perform an effective presentation.

It should be noted that in the present embodiment, the time from the execution of the stop operation to the deletion of each navigation number display object or specific navigation display object IMG20 is made to be the same because the second prize winning assistance effect and the second specific role Either one of the winning assistance effects may be sufficient, and in the other winning assistance effect, even if the time from the execution of the stop operation to the deletion of each navigation number display object or specific navigation display object IMG 20 is not necessarily the same. It can be very different.

In addition, the time from the execution of the stop operation to the deletion of the navigation number display object or the specific navigation display object IMG 20 may be different between the second prize winning assistance effect and the second special prize winning assistance effect. The effect may be longer or shorter than the second specific combination prize winning assist effect from execution of the stop operation to erasure.

In the present embodiment, detailed description of the configuration and control method common to those of the first embodiment will be omitted, and main differences will be described. Hereinafter, the control method employed in the gaming machine of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 50 to 51. FIG. FIG. 50 is a diagram showing an image displayed in the winning assistance effect in the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 51 is a diagram explaining the relationship between channels and effect sounds in the gaming machine according to the present embodiment. is.

First, in the present embodiment, as a winning assistance effect, a first winning assistance effect for outputting navigation voices of "Hidari", "Naka", and "Migi" is executed, and "Hidari", "Naka", and There is a case where a second prize winning assistance effect (predetermined effect) is executed in which a specific effect sound (predetermined effect sound) is output instead of the navigation sound of "Migi". Note that the first prize winning assistance effect is the same effect mode as the prize winning assist effect of the first embodiment, so description thereof will be omitted.

In the second prize-winning auxiliary effect, when a game start operation is performed with respect to the start lever SL, a line S2 of character A (for example, "Let's go": predetermined effect sound, first effect sound) is output as a specific effect sound, When the third stop operation is performed according to the order of correct strokes, the line S1 of character A (for example, "Who's next!": second effect sound) is output as a specific effect sound.

Further, in the second prize-winning auxiliary effect, even if the game start operation is performed with respect to the start lever SL, even if the first or second stop operation is performed along the correct hitting order, "hidari", "naka", or " Do not output the navigation voice of "Migi".

In the following, the second winning assist effect will be described by taking as an example the case where the pressing order of hitting order 3 (B2→B1→B3) is the correct hitting order as in the first embodiment. In the second prize-winning auxiliary production, the display mode (production mode) of the navigation number display objects IMG1 to 3 of "1", "2", and "3", the appearing effect display object IMG4, and the disappearing effect display object IMG5 This is the same as the 1 winning assistance effect (the winning assistance effect of the first embodiment).

First, in the second winning assistance effect, when the game start operation is performed on the start lever SL, as shown in FIG. In conjunction with the appearance, the character A image IMG10, which is an effect image in which the character A performs a predetermined action, is displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD, and the speech S2 of the character A (for example, "Let's go") is output from the speaker. A dialogue effect (predetermined effect) is executed. At this time, the navigation voice of "Naka" which is output in the first winning assistance effect shown in FIG. 50(E) is not output.

Then, when the first and second stop operations are performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes, as shown in FIGS. 3 changes, and when the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the state shown in FIG. 50(C), the characters "GET!" are displayed as shown in FIG. At the same time, a dialogue effect is executed in which the dialogue S1 of the character A (for example, "Who's next!") is output from the speaker. At this time, the effect sound of "get" that is output in the first winning assist effect shown in FIG. 50(H) is not output.

Also, in the second prize-winning assistance effect, when the first stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes, the navigation voice of “hidari” that is output in the first prize-winning assistance effect shown in FIG. 50(F) is output. If the second stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes, the navigation voice of "Migi" that is output in the first winning assistance effect shown in FIG. 50(G) is not output.

As described above, in the second prize-winning auxiliary effect, since the navigation of the correct hitting order by sound is not performed, the player will play the game by confirming the correct hitting order by the display on the liquid crystal display. You can enjoy the performance of character A because you are not disturbed by the navigation voice.

In the present embodiment, in the first prize-winning assist effect, when the player performs a stop operation during the output of the navigation voice of "Hidari", "Naka", and "Migi", the navigation voice being output is erased ( clear), but in the second prize-winning auxiliary effect, even if the player performs a stop operation while the effect sound of character A's speech S2 (for example, "Let's go") is being output, the effect sound being output is erased ( clear).

Specifically, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 51, 16 channels of channel 1 to channel 16 are prepared, and sounds to be reproduced are set in advance for each channel. For example, in channel 1, a game start operation on the start lever SL, a stop operation on the stop buttons B1 to B3, an operation on the bet button B0, and an operation on the settlement button for settlement of the medals credited (stored) in the gaming machine are performed. Sound effects (operation sounds) and the like at the time of execution of the operation are reproduced, BGM and the like are reproduced on channel 2, and "hidari", "naka", and "migi" at the time of execution of the first prize winning assistance effect are played on channel 3. On channel 4, character A's dialogue S2 (for example, "Let's go") and character A's dialogue S1 ( For example, "Who's next!") is reproduced.

In the first prize-winning auxiliary effect, the navigation voice being output is cleared by clearing the voice data of channel 3 and setting new voice data of the navigation voice each time the stop button B1 to B3 is operated. is erased (cleared) to start outputting a new navigation voice.

For example, if the pressing order of the batting order 3 (B2→B1→B3) is the correct batting order, when the game start operation is performed on the start lever SL, the audio data of the navigation voice of "Naka" is set to channel 3. When the first stop operation is performed in the order of correct strokes, the audio data of channel 3 is erased (cleared) and the audio data of the navigation voice of "Hidari" is newly set to channel 3. When the second stop operation is performed in accordance with the correct stroke order, the voice data of channel 3 is erased (cleared) and the voice data of the navigation voice of "Migi" is newly set to channel 3. When the third stop operation is performed according to the order of correct strokes, the audio data of channel 3 is erased (cleared) and the audio data of the effect sound of "get" is newly set to channel 3. to start output. As a result, in the first prize-winning auxiliary effect, when the player performs the first to third stop operations during the output of the navigation voice of "Hidari", "Naka", and "Migi", the navigation voice being output is reproduced. is terminated in the middle to start outputting a new navigation voice or effect voice.

Also, in the first prize-winning auxiliary effect, when the bet button B0 is operated by the player in order to start the next game while the effect sound of "get" is being output, or medals are inserted into the medal slot MI. In some cases, or when the player operates the checkout button to end the game, depending on these operations, the game start operation to the start lever SL is performed without erasing (clearing) the effect sound of "get". Deletes (clears) the effect sound of "get" being output when performed. In the first prize-winning auxiliary effect, when the bet button B0 is operated by the player in order to start the next game while the effect sound of "get" is being output, or medals are inserted into the medal slot MI. In some cases, or when the player operates the checkout button to end the game, the effect sound of "get" may be erased (cleared).

In this way, in the first winning assistance effect, channel 3 is used to reproduce the navigation voice and the like, and when channel 3 is used, the voice data of channel 3 is erased (cleared) each time the stop operation is performed. Therefore, if channel 3 is also used in the second prize-winning assist effect to output character A's speech S2 (eg, "Let's go"), character A's speech S2 (eg, "Let's go") will be erased in the middle by the stop operation. Therefore, in the present embodiment, in the second prize-winning effect, channel 4, which is different from channel 3, is used for character A's speech S2 (for example, "Let's go") and character A's speech S1 (for example, " Who's next!" is reproduced, and when channel 4 is used, the audio data of channel 4 is not erased (cleared) by the first and second stop operations.

For example, when the pressing order of the batting order 3 (B2→B1→B3) is the correct batting order, when the game start operation is performed on the start lever SL, the character A's line S2 (for example, "Let's go") is produced. The audio data of the audio is set to channel 4 and output is started, and even if the first stop operation is performed along the correct stroke order, the audio data of channel 4 will not be erased (cleared) and the new audio data will be transferred to the channel. 4 is not set, even if the second stop operation is performed in accordance with the correct hitting order, the sound data of channel 4 is not cleared (cleared) and new sound data is not set to channel 4, and the correct hitting order is set. When the third stop operation is performed according to , the voice data of channel 4 is erased (cleared) and the voice data of the production voice of the character A's speech S1 (for example, "Who's next!") is newly generated. is set to channel 4 and output is started. In addition, in the second prize-winning assist effect, even if the first or second stop operation is performed in a pressing order different from the correct hitting order, the audio data of channel 4 is not erased (cleared) and new audio data is transferred to channel 4. Not set. As a result, in the second prize-winning auxiliary effect, even if the player performs the first or second stop operation during the output of the effect sound of the character A's line S2 (for example, "Let's go"), the character A's line is output. Do not erase (clear) the effect sound of S2 (for example, "Let's go").

Note that in the present embodiment, when the player hits a quick stroke, the effect sound of the line S2 (for example, "Let's go") of the character A is not finished playing at least at the first stop operation, but the third one is played. The playback time is set so that the playback will end by the time of the stop operation of .

Also, in the second prize winning assist effect, even if the third stop operation is performed in a pressing order different from the correct hitting order, the voice data of channel 4 is erased (cleared) and the dialogue S1 of character A (for example, , "Who's next?!" can be

In the second prize-winning auxiliary effect, the player operates the bet button B0 to start the next game while the effect voice of the character A's speech S1 (for example, "Who's next!") is being output. When the game is over, when a medal is inserted into the medal insertion slot MI, or when the player operates the checkout button to end the game, depending on these operations, character A's dialogue S1 (for example, "Next is who?!" !”) is erased (cleared). It should be noted that in the second winning auxiliary effect, the player operates the bet button B0 in order to start the next game while the effect voice of the character A's speech S1 (for example, "Who's next!") is being output. When the game is over, when a medal is inserted into the medal insertion slot MI, or when the player operates the checkout button to end the game, the line S1 of Character A (for example, "When is the next da!”) may be erased (cleared).

As described above, in the present embodiment, when one of the batting order bells is won in the internal lottery in the AT state, the first prize winning assist effect or the second prize winning assist effect can be executed. In the second prize winning assist effect, Since the navigation of the correct hitting order by voice is not performed, the dialogue performance of the character A is not disturbed by the navigation voice, so that the performance of the character A can be enjoyed. Then, in the second prize winning assistance effect of the present embodiment, when the game start operation is performed on the start lever SL, before the stop operation is validated, the effect voice of the dialogue S2 of the character A (for example, "Let's go") is generated. , and even if the first or second stop operation is performed during the output of character A's speech S2 (for example, "Let's go"), character A's speech S2 (for example, "Let's go") is output. Since it is not erased, the line S2 of character A (for example, "Let's go") can be heard until the end without being erased in the middle, and an effective presentation can be performed.

Further, in the second prize-winning auxiliary effect of the present embodiment, while the effect voice of character A's line S1 (for example, "Who's next!") is being output, the player presses the bet button to start the next game. When an operation is performed on B0, when a medal is inserted into the medal insertion slot MI, or when the player operates a checkout button to end the game, the line S1 of character A (for example, " Next is who!”) is not erased (cleared), so the dialogue S1 of Character A (for example, “Who’s next!”) can be played to the end without being erased in the middle. It is possible to perform effectively.

In addition, in the present embodiment, for example, a first AT state and a second AT state are provided as the AT state, and a transition is possible between the first AT state and the second AT state, and in the first AT state, the first prize-winning assist effect is executed. In the second AT state, the second winning assistance effect may be executed, or a performance customization function may be installed so that the player can select either the first winning assistance performance or the second winning assistance performance. You may enable it to be selected.

In the present embodiment, when the first or second stop operation is performed in a pressing order different from the correct hitting order in the game in which the first prize-winning auxiliary effect is executed, the navigation number display being displayed and the appearance of the displayed navigation number display are displayed. The effect display object IMG4 and the disappearing effect display object IMG5 being displayed are erased to end the first prize-winning assistance effect, and characters such as "Miss!" output from the speaker, such as the effect sound and warning sound. In this case, even if a stop operation is performed while the "mistake" sound effects and warning sounds are being output, the "mistake" sound effects and warning sounds may not be erased (cleared), or they may be erased (cleared). You may do so. Also, the channel used for reproducing the "mistake" effect sound and warning sound may be channel 3 or another channel.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the first or second stop operation is performed in a pressing order different from the correct hitting order in the game in which the second winning assistance effect is executed, the display is performed in the same manner as when the first winning assistance effect is executed. The navigator number display inside is erased to end the second winning assistance effect, characters such as "Miss!" . In this case, if the first or second stop operation is performed in a pressing order different from the correct hitting order during the output of the production voice of character A's dialogue S2 (for example, "Let's go"), character A's It is also possible to erase (clear) the production voice of the line S2 (for example, "Let's go") and instead output the production sound of "Mistake" or a warning sound, or the line S2 of the character A (for example, " Let's go!") may not be erased (cleared), while the production voice of "Mistake" or warning sound may be further output. Also, in this case, even if a stop operation is performed while the "Miss" sound effect or warning sound is output, the "Miss" effect sound or warning sound may not be erased (cleared), or may be erased (cleared). You may make it Also, in this case, if the third stop operation is performed while the "Miss" effect sound or warning sound is being output, the "Miss" effect sound or warning sound is erased (cleared) and character A is replaced instead. (For example, "Who's next!") may be output, or the speech of character A may be output while not erasing (clearing) the "Mistake" or warning sound. S1 (for example, "Who's next!") may be further output. Channel 4 or another channel may be used for reproducing the effect sound of "Miss" and the warning sound.

In the above-described embodiment, the case of executing a sound effect that generates two types of effect sounds including a navigation voice etc. in the prize winning assist effect has been described as an example, but three or more types of effect sounds may be generated. good. In this example, the sound data of three or more types of effect sounds may be set to have different lengths of silent periods (including no silent period), and these sound data may be reproduced simultaneously.

In the above-described embodiment, an example of executing a sound effect that generates the effect sound of the navigation appearance sound or the navigation disappearance sound and the navigation voice or the effect sound in the winning assistance effect has been described. The sound effect to be generated is not limited to one type, and two or more types of sound effects may be generated. Two or more types of navigation voices or effect voices may be generated. In this example, the sound data of three or more types of effect sounds may be set to have different lengths of silent periods (including no silent period), and these sound data may be reproduced simultaneously.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the case where silence data is provided at the beginning of the sound data of the navigation voice and the effect voice has been described as an example, but the sound data of the navigation voice and the effect voice and the silence data are separate data, and the navigation voice In the sound effect that generates such as, the sound data of the navigation sound or the navigation disappearance sound data may be played back at the same time as the silence data, and when the playback of the silence data is completed, the sound data of the navigation voice or the effect voice may be played. . Even in this way, the same effects as those of the above-described embodiment can be obtained. Silence data is not limited to data with a volume of "0", and may be sound data with a volume equal to or lower than a reference value.

Further, in the above embodiment, the case where silence data is provided at the beginning of the sound data of the navigation voice and the effect sound has been described as an example. Silence data may not be provided for voice and effect voice. Even in this way, the same effects as those of the above-described embodiment can be obtained, and the sound data of the navigation sound or disappearing navigation sound and the sound data of the navigation voice or the effect voice can be reproduced at the same time, so that the volume of the navigation voice or the effect sound can be obtained. When the peak occurs, the sound that appears or disappears from the navigation is not generated, and the sound that appears or disappears after the silent period of the sound that appears or disappears from the navigation is generated, so the sound overlap is reduced. It is possible to make it easier to hear the navigation appearing sound, the navigation disappearing sound, the navigation voice, and the performance voice, and to perform an effective performance.

Also, in the above embodiment, the silent period is set to the same length (same time) in the sound data of the navigation voices of "Hidari", "Naka", and "Migi", and the sound data of the effect voice of "Get". , the length of the silent period may be different. For example, the sound data of the navigation voices of "Hidari", "Naka", and "Migi" have the same silent period (same time) However, the effect voice of "get" may have a different (longer or shorter) silent period than the navigation voices of "hidari", "naka" and "migi".

Further, in the above embodiment, the case where silent data (silent period) is provided at the beginning of the sound data of the navigation voice and the production voice is explained as an example, but it is not necessary to provide the silent data. In the sound effect to be generated, the measurement of a silent period (for example, 100 ms) is started at the same time as the sound data of the navigation appearing sound or the navigation disappearing sound is started to be played, and when the silent period has passed, the navigation voice or the effect sound is played. Data may be reproduced. Even in this way, the same effects as those of the above-described embodiment can be obtained.

In addition, the length of the silent period may be different in each of the game start operation and the first to third stop operations with respect to the start lever SL, or the length of the silent period may be changed only in some operation opportunities. For example, the length of the silent period may be different between when the game start operation is performed on the start lever SL and when the first to third stop operations are performed, or when the game start operation is performed on the start lever SL. The length of the silent period may be different between the time and the first stop operation and the second and third stop operations, or when the start lever SL is operated to start the game, and when the first and second stop operations are performed. The length of the silent period may be different between the stop operation and the third stop operation, or the game start operation and the second stop operation on the start lever SL and the first and third stop operations. The length of the silent period may be different depending on the time, or the length of the silent period at the time of the game start operation on the start lever SL, the first and third stop operations, and the second stop operation. may be different. Further, the length of the silent period may be different between the game start operation on the start lever SL, the first stop operation, and the second and third stop operations, or when the start lever SL is operated to start the game. The length of the silent period may be different between the first and second stop operations and the third stop operation. The length of the silent period may be different between when the third stop operation is performed and when the third stop operation is performed. In this example, a plurality of sound data having different lengths of silent periods may be prepared for each navigation voice and effect sound, and sound data may be selected according to the silent period for the effect sound to be generated.

Also, if the length of the silent period is the same for some or all of the operation triggers of the game start operation for the start lever SL and the first to third stop operations, it is completely the same. The length of the silent period may be substantially the same or similar, and may be different within a range that does not give the player a sense of discomfort. In particular, in the above embodiment, the length of the silent period is adjusted in relation to the output voices such as "Hidari", "Naka", "Migi", and "Get" within a range that does not make the player feel uncomfortable. They may have substantially the same or similar lengths.

In the above embodiment, the length of the silence period in the sound data of the navigation voices of "Hidari", "Naka", and "Migi" and the effect voice of "Get" is set to 100 ms, for example. However, the length of the silent period is not limited to this, and may be shorter or longer than 100 ms. Also, the length of the silent period may be less than or equal to 190 ms, which is the maximum time required from the point at which the stop button is pressed until the reels are stopped.

Further, in the above embodiment, the game start operation on the start lever SL and the first and second stop operations are used as a trigger to execute the sound effect of generating the navigation voice, but the winning assist effect is executed. When the second stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game played, the type of stop button to be operated next is determined, so only the disappearing navigation sound is generated, and the navigation voice is not generated. good.

Further, in the above embodiment, when the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assist effect is executed and 15 small wins are won, the characters "GET!" are displayed on the liquid crystal display. has been described as an example, the characters "GET!" may be displayed when the stop button is pressed. In this way, the timing of generating the effect sound "GET" and the timing of displaying the characters "GET!" In the game in which the winning assist effect is executed, even if the third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of the correct strokes, the characters "GET!" may not be displayed. It is also possible to generate only the disappearing navigation sound without generating any sound.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the case where the sound effects such as sound effects and navigation voices are generated when the start lever SL is pressed or the stop button is pressed is taken as an example. As explained above, when the pressed state of the operated start lever SL is released, or when the pressed state of the operated stop button is released, sound effects such as sound effects and navigation voices are generated. You may make it

Further, in the above embodiment, when the first, second, or third stop operation is performed in accordance with the order of correct strokes in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, the sound effect generates a disappearing navigation sound as an example. As described above, the disappearing navigation sound generated in each stop operation may be the same sound or may be different sounds. Further, only the disappearing navigation sound generated in some stop operations may be a different sound. Also, the navigation appearing sound and the navigation disappearing sound may be the same sound or different sounds.

In the above embodiment, the peak value of the volume of the navigation sound, the disappearance of the navigation sound, the navigation sound, and the effect sound is set to a value larger than the peak value of the BGM volume. The peak volume values of the sound, the missing navigation sound, the navigation voice, and the effect voice may be smaller than or equal to the peak volume value of the BGM. In addition, the peak value of the volume in the sound data of the navigation appearing sound may be the same value or a different value (smaller or larger) than the peak value of the volume in the sound data of the lost navigation sound, navigation voice, or directing voice. Well, the peak volume value in the sound data of the missing navigation sound is the same value or a different value (smaller or larger value) than the peak volume value in the sound data of the navigation appearing sound, the navigation voice, or the effect voice. Alternatively, the peak value of the volume in the sound data of the navigation voice is the same value or a different value (smaller or larger) than the peak value of the volume in the sound data of the navigation appearing sound, the navigation disappearing sound, or the effect sound. , the peak value of the volume in the sound data of the production voice is the same value or a different value (smaller or larger value).

In addition, the volume of the sound data of the navigation sound may be the same value or a different value (smaller or larger value) as the volume of the navigation disappearing sound, the navigation voice, or the volume of the effect sound, or the sound data of the navigation disappearing sound may be the same value or a different value (smaller or larger value) as the volume of the sound data of the navigation sound, navigation voice, or directing voice, and the volume of the navigation voice sound data may be It may be the same value or a different value (smaller or larger value) as the volume of the sound data of the appearing sound, the lost navigation sound, or the sound data of the effect sound, and the volume of the sound data of the effect sound It may be the same value or a different value (a smaller value or a larger value) than the volume of the sound data of the missing sound or the navigation voice.

Further, in the above embodiment, the navigation voice was to inform the pressing order (correct hitting order), but the navigation voice may be to inform the timing of pressing or the symbol to be aimed, and the color indicating the color of the symbol A navigation voice or a pattern navigation voice indicating a pattern may be used. For example, by preparing a specific winning mode in which a specific winning combination in which the symbol combination of "Red 7, Red 7, Red 7" (a specific symbol combination) can be displayed on an active line or an invalid line is won, an internal lottery is conducted to select a specific winning mode. In the case of winning, if the stop operation is performed in the pressing order (the batting order 5, 6) to stop the third reel R3 first, the symbol combination of "red 7, red 7, red 7" (specific symbol combination) is effective. When the spinning reels are stopped so that they can be displayed on the line or the invalid line, and the stop operation is performed in the batting order 1 to 4, the symbol combination of "red 7, red 7, red 7" (specific symbol combination) is obtained. Rotating reels are stopped so as not to be displayed, and the number of games in AT state is added when a specific winning mode is won in AT state. In this case, in the winning assist effect, as shown in FIG. 53(A), in response to the game start operation on the start lever SL, the third reel R3 is stopped in the first pressing order (hit order 5, 6). It is notified that the operation is performed and that the stop operation is performed at the timing of displaying the red 7 symbol "red 7" (aiming at the red 7 symbol "red 7"), and in the sound effect, the game start operation to the start lever SL , the navigation sound and the navigation voice "Aim for 7" may be generated. Also in this example, the control method of the above embodiment can be applied. In the case of executing a sound presentation for generating a voice or the like, the sound data of the navigation appearance sound and the sound data of the navigation voice of "Aim for 7" may be reproduced at the same time. By doing so, it is possible to make it easier to hear the navigation voice of "Aim for 7".

In the above-described embodiment, the case in which a 15-symbol win is won in the correct hitting order when the batting order bell is won has been described as an example. When a winning combination is won and a stop operation is performed at a pressing timing different from the specific pressing timing, the spinning reels may be stopped so that the 15-piece small winning combination is not won. For example, when the hitting order bell is won, in the correct hitting order, if the first stop operation is performed at a specific pressing timing, 15 small wins are won, and the first stopping operation is performed at a specific pressing timing. When the stop operation is performed at different pressing timings, the spinning reel may be stopped so that the 15-piece small winning combination is not won. In this case, in the winning assist effect, as shown in FIG. 53(B), in response to the game start operation on the start lever SL, it is the pressing timing of the first stop operation, for example, red 7 symbol "red 7". , which indicates aiming at ", the effect image including the red 7 navigation pattern display (navigation pattern image, navigation pattern display) IMG8, the second navigation number display IMG2, and the third navigation number display IMG3 on the liquid crystal display LCD By displaying, the correct hitting order and the pressing timing of the first stop operation are notified, and in the sound production, in response to the game start operation on the start lever SL, the navigation sound and the navigation voice of "red" or "red 7" are displayed. (color navigation voice indicating the color of the pattern or pattern navigation voice indicating the pattern) may be generated. And in this example also, the control method of the above embodiment can be applied. In the case of executing a sound effect for generating the navigation voice of "red 7", etc., the sound data of the navigation sound and the sound data of the navigation voice of "red" or "red 7" may be reproduced at the same time. . In this example, silence data may be provided at the beginning of the sound data of the navigation sound. In this way, the navigation voice of "red" or "red 7", which is useful information for the player, can be generated prior to the navigation appearance sound. Further, in this example, instead of the navigation voice of "red" or "red 7", the navigation voice of "naka" may be generated.

Further, for example, when the hitting order bell is won, in the correct hitting order, if the third stop operation is performed at a specific pressing timing, 15 small wins are won, and the third stopping operation is performed at a specific pressing timing. If a stop operation is performed at a different pressing timing, the rotating reels may be stopped so that the 15-piece small win is not won. In this case, in the winning assistance effect, as shown in FIG. 53(C), the first navigation numeral display object IMG1, the second navigation numeral display object IMG2, and the third navigation numeral display object IMG2 are displayed in response to the game start operation on the start lever SL. At the timing of pressing the stop operation, for example, the effect image including the red 7 navigation symbol display (navigation symbol image, navigation symbol display) IMG8 indicating aiming at the red 7 symbol "red 7" is displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD The correct hitting order and the pressing timing of the third stop operation are notified by displaying, and in the sound production, when the second stop operation is performed in accordance with the correct hitting order, the disappearing navigation sound and "red" or "red 7" are played. (color navigation voice indicating the color of the pattern or pattern navigation voice indicating the pattern) may be generated. And in this example also, the control method of the above embodiment can be applied. In the case of executing a sound effect for generating the navigation voice of "red 7", etc., the sound data of the lost navigation sound and the sound data of the navigation voice of "red" or "red 7" may be played back at the same time. . In this example, silence data may be provided at the beginning of the sound data of the lost navigation sound. In this way, the navigation voice of "red" or "red 7", which is useful information for the player, can be generated before the lost navigation sound. Further, in this example, instead of the navigation voice of "red" or "red 7", the navigation voice of "migi" may be generated.

Further, in the above-described first and second embodiments, the first navigation numeral display object IMG1, the second navigation numeral display object IMG2, and the third navigation numeral display object are displayed in the winning assistance effect, and the third and fourth navigation numeral display objects are displayed. In the embodiment, the case where the first navigation numeral display object IMG1, the second navigation numeral display object IMG2, and the third navigation numeral display object are displayed in the first prize winning assist effect and the second prize winning assist effect has been described as an example. However, if the first and second stop operations are known, the correct hitting order can be grasped even if the last stop operation is not known. That is, in the above-described third and fourth embodiments, the first display position corresponding to the stop button B1 and the second display position corresponding to the stop button B2 (a plurality of positions corresponding to each stop operation means) are used in the first winning assistance effect. at least a part of the positions), and the third display position corresponding to the stop button B3 does not display the navigation number display, and corresponds to the first reel R1 in the second winning assistance effect. A navigation number display object is displayed at a first display position corresponding to the second reel R2 and a second display position (at least a portion of a plurality of positions corresponding to each reel) corresponding to the third reel R3. The navigation number display object may not be displayed at the third display position.

In the third and fourth embodiments, the first left imaginary straight line LL1, the first middle imaginary straight line CL1, and the first right imaginary straight line RL1 are straight lines passing through the center of the width of each reel. As explained above, a straight line passing through the approximate center (substantially the center) of the width of each reel may be used.

Similarly, the third left imaginary straight line LL3, the third middle imaginary straight line CL3, and the third right imaginary straight line RL3 are straight lines passing through the center of the width of each stop button. A straight line that passes through the approximate center (substantially the center) of the width may be used.

Further, in the above-described third and fourth embodiments, the third left virtual straight line LL3, the third middle virtual straight line CL3, or the third right virtual straight line RL3 in the first prize winning assist effect and the first special prize winning assist effect A case where the center of the navigation number display object or the specific navigation display object IMG20 is positioned has been described as an example. Anything that is displayed on the

Similarly, in the second prize winning assist effect and the second special winning prize assist effect, each navigation numeral display object or specific navigation display object IMG20 is placed on the first left virtual straight line LL1, the first middle virtual straight line CL1, or the first right virtual straight line RL1. Although the case where the center of the navigation display item IMG20 is positioned is described as an example, it may be displayed such that the approximate center (substantially the center) of each navigation display item or specific navigation display item IMG20 is positioned.

In the above embodiment, the case where the liquid crystal display LCD is provided above the reel unit has been described as an example. You may do so.

Further, in the above embodiment, the display time of the disappearing effect moving image for each of the navigator number display objects IMG1 to 3 of "1", "2", and "3" is set to be the same (for example, 12 frames), and the winning assistance effect is executed. When the stop operation is performed along the correct stroke order in the played game, the operation interval between the first stop operation and the second stop operation is less than a predetermined time (for example, 12 frames) (first navigation When the second stop operation is performed while the disappearing effect display object IMG5 for the number display object IMG1 is being displayed, the disappearing effect moving image (predetermined moving image) for the first navigation number display object IMG1 is displayed to the end. and the operation interval between the second stop operation and the third stop operation is less than a predetermined time (for example, 12 frames). When the third stop operation is performed during display), the disappearing effect moving image (predetermined moving image) for the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 may be terminated in the middle without being displayed to the end.

In this way, in the game in which the winning assist effect is executed, the operation interval between the first stop operation and the second stop operation is the predetermined time ( For example, if it is less than 12 frames), the display of the disappearing effect moving image on the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 is terminated in the middle, so when the second stop operation is performed, the first stop operation You can erase the disappearance effect that occurred at times. As a result, when the second stop operation is performed, it is possible not to interfere with the effect (delete effect or disappearance effect) for the navigation number display item "2" (second navigation number display item IMG2). You can make a dramatic performance. Similarly, in the game in which the winning assistance effect is executed, the operation interval between the second stop operation and the third stop operation is a predetermined time (for example, 12 frames) that is the display time of the disappearing effect moving image on the second navigation numeral display object IMG2. ), the display of the disappearing effect moving image on the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 is terminated in the middle. Disappearing effects can be removed. As a result, when the third stop operation is performed, it is possible not to interfere with the effect (delete effect or disappearance effect) for the navigation number display object of "3" (third navigation number display object IMG3). You can make a dramatic performance.

In this example, for example, when the pressing order of the hitting order 3 (B2→B1→B3) is the correct hitting order, a part of the disappearing effect display object IMG5 for the first navigation numeral display object IMG1 (predetermined operation order display object) is superimposed on the adjacent second navigation numeral display object IMG2 (another operation order display object) and the appearance effect display object IMG4 for the second navigation numeral display object IMG2. good too. Further, for example, when the pressing order of the hitting order 1 (B1→B2→B3) is the correct hitting order, a part of the disappearing effect display object IMG5 for the first navigation number display object IMG1 (predetermined operation order display object) is The second navigation numeral display object IMG2 (another operation sequence display object) positioned at the position of the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 and the appearance effect display object IMG4 corresponding to the second navigation numeral display object IMG2 are overlapped and displayed at a moment. A part of the disappearing effect display object IMG5 for the display object IMG2 (predetermined operation sequence display object) is not displayed for the third navigation numerical display object IMG3 (another operation order display object) or the third navigation numerical display object IMG3 located next to it. It may be configured so that there is a moment when it is displayed overlapping the appearance effect display object IMG4.

Also, in this example, for example, the anchor point of each navigation number display displayed when the pressing order of the batting order 1 (B1→B2→B3) is the correct batting order, and the pressing order of the batting order 6 (B3→B2→B1) The anchor point of each navigation number display object displayed when is the correct hitting order is the same position for each navigation number display object displayed at each of the first display position to the third display position, and the first left It may be positioned on each straight line of the virtual straight line LL1, the first middle virtual straight line CL1, and the first right virtual straight line RL1.

Further, in the above embodiment, a small winning combination of 1 is awarded when weak cherry, watermelon, chance winning, or JAC2 is won, a small winning combination of 3 is awarded when winning a triple winning combination, and a small winning combination of 15 is awarded when JAC1 is won. The case of winning a prize has been described as an example, but when winning a weak cherry, watermelon, chance role, or JAC2, a different one-piece small role is won according to the operation mode of the stop operation, or no role is won ( If a winning combination of 3 cards is won, a different 3-card winning combination is won depending on the operation mode of the stop operation, or none of the winning combinations is won (lost winning a combination). may exist, or if 15 small wins do not win according to the operation mode of the stop operation when JAC1 is won (3 small wins or 1 small win wins) or any win There may be a case where no prize is awarded (loss of role). Also, the normal replay may be a winning mode in which a plurality of types of replays including replay 1 are won, and different replays may be won according to the operation mode of the stop operation when the normal replay is won.

In the above-described embodiment, the game machine is configured such that game media such as medals are inserted when a game is played, and game media are paid out when a winning combination is won. A game may be played by consuming or giving a game value. For example, a gaming machine or an external unit connected to the gaming machine can store information on the gaming value owned by the player, and subtract the number of the gaming value to consume the gaming value. A configuration may be adopted in which the addition of the game value is replaced with the insertion of the medium, and the addition of the game value is replaced with the payout of the game medium.
