FIG. 1 is a front view of a pachinko gaming machine 1, showing the layout of the main components. A pachinko game machine (game machine) 1 is roughly divided into a game board (gauge board) 2 that constitutes a game board surface, and a game machine frame (base frame) 3 that supports and fixes the game board 2. A game area is formed on the game board 2, and a game ball as a game medium is fired from a predetermined ball launcher into this game area.

In addition, "variable display" of special symbols means, for example, to display a plurality of types of special symbols in a variable manner (the same applies to other symbols described later). The variations include updated display of a plurality of symbols, scroll display of a plurality of symbols, deformation of one or more symbols, enlargement/reduction of one or more symbols, and the like. In the variation of special symbols and normal symbols described below, a plurality of types of special symbols or normal symbols are updated and displayed. In the variation of decorative patterns described below, a plurality of types of decorative patterns are scrolled or updated, or one or more decorative patterns are deformed or enlarged/reduced. Incidentally, the variation also includes a mode in which a certain symbol is displayed blinking. At the end of the variable display, a predetermined special symbol is stopped and displayed (also referred to as derivation or derivation display) as a display result (the same applies to the variable display of other symbols described later). Note that the variable display may be expressed as variable display or fluctuation.

The special symbol variably displayed on the first special symbol display device 4A is also referred to as a “first special symbol”, and the special symbol variably displayed on the second special symbol display device 4B is also referred to as a “second special symbol”. Further, a special map game using the first special map is also referred to as a "first special map game", and a special map game using the second special map is also referred to as a "second special map game". In addition, the number of special symbol display devices that perform variable display of special symbols may be one type.

An image display device 5 is provided near the center of the game area on the game board 2. The image display device 5 is composed of, for example, an LCD (liquid crystal display), an organic EL (electro luminescence), or the like, and displays various effect images. The image display device 5 may include a projector and a screen. The image display device 5 displays various effect images.

For example, on the screen of the image display device 5, in synchronization with the first special pattern game and the second special pattern game, decorative patterns (such as patterns showing numbers, etc.) as multiple types of decorative identification information different from the special pattern are displayed. A variable display is performed. Here, in synchronization with the first special figure game or the second special figure game, decorative figures are displayed variably (for example, up and down direction (scroll display and update display). In addition, the special figure game and the variable display of decorative symbols that are executed synchronously are collectively referred to as simply variable display.

A display area may be provided on the screen of the image display device 5 for displaying a pending display corresponding to a variable display whose execution is pending, and an active display corresponding to a variable display currently being executed. The pending display and the active display are collectively referred to as a variable display compatible display corresponding to the variable display.

The number of pending variable displays is also called the number of pending memories. The number of pending memories corresponding to the first special figure game is also referred to as the first number of pending memories, and the number of pending memories corresponding to the second special figure game is also referred to as the second number of pending memories. The sum of the first number of pending memories and the second number of pending memories is also referred to as the total number of pending memories.

A first hold indicator 25A and a second hold indicator 25B each including a plurality of LEDs are provided at predetermined positions on the game board 2. The first hold display 25A displays the number of first hold memories based on the number of lit LEDs.

When a game ball enters the first starting winning hole, a predetermined number (for example, three) of winning balls are paid out, and the first special symbol game can be started.

The variable prize winning ball device 6B (normal electric accessory) forms a second starting prize opening that changes between a closed state and an open state by a solenoid 81 (see FIG. 3). The variable winning ball device 6B includes, for example, an electric tulip-shaped accessory having a pair of movable pieces, and when the solenoid 81 is in the OFF state, the movable pieces are in a vertical position, so that the tip of the movable piece becomes the winning ball. It approaches the device 6A and enters a closed state in which the game ball does not enter the second starting prize opening (also referred to as the second starting winning opening enters a closed state). On the other hand, when the solenoid 81 is in the ON state, the movable piece of the variable winning ball device 6B is in the tilted position, so that the variable winning ball device 6B enters an open state in which the game ball can enter the second starting winning opening (second starting winning opening). It is also said that the mouth becomes open.) When the game ball enters the second starting winning hole, a predetermined number (for example, three) of winning balls are paid out, and the second special symbol game can be started. The variable winning ball device 6B may be any device that can change between a closed state and an open state, and is not limited to one that includes an electric tulip type accessory.

FIG. 2 is a rear perspective view of the pachinko gaming machine 1. A main board 11 housed in a board case 201 is mounted on the back of the pachinko game machine 1. The main board 11 is provided with a setting key 51 and a setting changeover switch 52. The setting key 51 functions as a lock switch for switching to a setting change state or a setting confirmation state. The setting changeover switch 52 functions as a setting switch for changing set values such as the probability of winning a jackpot and the batting rate in a setting change state. The setting key 51 and the setting changeover switch 52 may be attached to the outside of the main board 11, such as at a predetermined position on the power supply board 17, for example.

A display monitor 29 is arranged at the center of the back surface of the main board 11, and a display changeover switch 31 is arranged on the side of the display monitor 29. The display monitor 29 may be configured using, for example, a 7-segment LED display device. The display monitor 29 and the display changeover switch 31 are arranged in front of the main board 11 when the back side of the game board 2 is viewed with the gaming machine frame 3 open.

The display monitor 29 can display winning information such as consecutive ratios, winning ratios, and bases. The consecutive ratio is the ratio of the number of prize balls that land in the big prize opening (attacker) out of the total number of prize balls. The winning ratio is the ratio of the number of prize balls that land in the second starting prize opening (electronic chew) and the number of prize balls that land in the grand prize opening (attacker) out of the total number of prize balls. The base is the ratio of the total number of prize balls to the number of game balls launched. When in the setting change state or setting confirmation state, the display monitor 29 can display the setting values in the pachinko gaming machine 1. The display monitor 29 may be used as long as it can display setting values to be changed or checked when the settings are changed or checked.

The security cover 50A covers the right side of the board case 201 including the setting key 51 and the setting changeover switch 52 from the back side when the gaming machine frame 3 is closed. The security cover 50A is a substantially L-shaped member including a short piece 50Aa and a long piece 50Ab, and may be made of transparent synthetic resin.

[Outline of game progress]
When a player rotates a ball-hitting operation handle 30 provided in the pachinko game machine 1, a game ball is launched toward a game area. When the game ball passes through the passage gate 41, the normal pattern display 20 starts the normal pattern game. In addition, if the game ball passes through the passage gate 41 during the period during which the previous Fuzu game was being executed (the game ball passed through the passing gate 41, but the Fuzu game based on the passage cannot be executed immediately), , the game based on the passage is suspended up to a predetermined upper limit (for example, 4).

In this general pattern game, if a specific normal pattern (a pattern per normal pattern) is stopped and displayed, the display result of the normal pattern becomes ``a common pattern hit''. On the other hand, if a normal symbol other than the regular symbol hit symbol (ordinary symbol missed symbol) is stopped and displayed as a confirmed ordinary symbol, the display result of the ordinary symbol becomes "ordinary symbol missed". When it becomes a "normal map hit", opening control is performed to keep the variable winning ball device 6B in an open state for a predetermined period (the second starting winning hole is in an open state).

When the game ball enters the first starting winning hole formed in the winning ball device 6A, the first special symbol game by the first special symbol display device 4A is started.

When a game ball enters the second starting winning hole formed in the variable winning ball device 6B, a second special symbol game by the second special symbol display device 4B is started.

In addition, if the game ball enters the starting winning hole (winning) during the period when the special drawing game is being executed or during the period when the jackpot game state described below is being controlled (a starting winning has occurred, but based on the starting winning If the special figure game cannot be executed immediately), the execution of the special figure game based on the entry is suspended until a predetermined upper limit number (for example, 4).

In the special pattern game, if a specific special pattern (a jackpot pattern, e.g. "7", the actual pattern differs depending on the jackpot type described later) is stopped and displayed as a confirmed special pattern, it becomes a "jackpot" and the jackpot pattern If a special symbol (missing symbol, for example "-") different from the above is stopped and displayed, it becomes a "missing" symbol. It should be noted that the "loss" in this pachinko game machine 1 includes the "loss with time saving" which is controlled from the next variable display to a high base state (time saving state) without going through the jackpot game.

After the display result in the special figure game becomes a "jackpot", the game is controlled to be in a jackpot game state as an advantageous state for the player.

In the jackpot game state, the jackpot formed by the special variable winning ball device 7 is opened in a predetermined manner. The open state is determined by the timing when a predetermined period of time (for example, 29 seconds or 1.8 seconds) elapses, or the timing until the number of game balls that enter the grand prize opening reaches a predetermined number (for example, 9 balls). This will continue until the earliest of the two. The predetermined period is the upper limit period during which the big prize opening can be opened in one round, and hereinafter also referred to as the upper limit opening period. One cycle in which the big prize opening is opened in this way is called a round (round game). In the jackpot game state, the round can be executed repeatedly until it reaches a predetermined upper limit number of times (15 times or 2 times).

In the jackpot game state, the player can receive a prize ball by entering the game ball into the jackpot opening. Therefore, the jackpot gaming state is an advantageous state for the player. The greater the number of rounds in the jackpot gaming state and the longer the open upper limit period, the more advantageous it is for the player.

Incidentally, the jackpot type is set in "jackpot". For example, we prepare multiple types of opening modes for the jackpot (number of rounds and maximum opening period) and gaming states after the jackpot gaming state (normal state, time-saving state, variable probability state, etc.), and set the jackpot type accordingly. has been done. As the jackpot types, there may be provided a jackpot type in which many prize balls can be obtained, a jackpot type in which few prize balls can be obtained, or a jackpot type in which hardly any prize balls can be obtained.

After the jackpot gaming state ends, depending on the above-mentioned jackpot type, it may be controlled to a time saving state or a variable probability state.

In the time-saving state, control (time-saving control) is executed to shorten the average special symbol variation time (period for varying the special symbol) compared to the normal state. In the short time state, by shortening the average fluctuation time (period for changing the general pattern) than in the normal state, and by increasing the probability of hitting the normal pattern in the general drawing game compared to the normal state, etc. Control (high opening control, high base control) that makes it easier for game balls to enter the second starting prize opening is also executed. The time saving state is a state in which the variation efficiency of the special symbols (especially the second special symbol) is improved, so it is an advantageous state for the player.

In the variable probability state (probability variable state), in addition to the time saving control, variable probability control is executed in which the probability that the displayed result is a "jackpot" is higher than in the normal state. The variable probability state is a state that is more advantageous to the player because it improves the efficiency of changing the special symbols and is also a state where it is easy to hit the jackpot.

The time saving state and the variable probability state continue until any one of the end conditions is met first, such as the execution of the special figure game a predetermined number of times and the start of the next jackpot game state. A condition where the termination condition is that the special figure game has been executed a predetermined number of times is also called number-cutting (number-cutting time reduction, number-cutting probability variable, etc.).

A normal state is a gaming state other than a special state such as an advantageous state such as a jackpot game state that is advantageous to the player, a time saving state, or a variable probability state, and the display result in the Fuzu game is "Fuzu hit". The pachinko game machine 1, such as the probability and the probability that the display result in the special figure game will be a "jackpot", is set to the initial setting state of the pachinko game machine 1 (for example, when a system reset is performed, a predetermined return after the power is turned on). This state is controlled in the same way as when no processing is executed).

A state in which variable probability control is being executed is also referred to as a high probability state, and a state in which variable probability control is not executed is also referred to as a low probability state. A state in which time saving control is being executed is also referred to as a high base state, and a state in which time saving control is not being executed is also referred to as a low base state. Combining these, the time saving state is also called a low certainty/high base state, the variable probability state is also called a high certainty/high base state, the normal state is also called a low certainty/low base state, etc. The high certainty state and low base state is also referred to as the high certainty low base state.

Note that the gaming state may change based on the fact that the game ball has passed through a specific area (for example, a specific area within the big winning opening) during the jackpot gaming state. For example, when the game ball passes through a specific area, control may be performed to change the probability state after the jackpot game state.

[Progress of production, etc.]
In the pachinko game machine 1, various effects (effects for notifying the progress of the game or for enlivening the game) are executed according to the progress of the game. The performance will be explained below. The effect is performed by displaying various effect images on the image display device 5, but in addition to or in place of the display, audio output from the speakers 8L and 8R and the game effect lamp 9 are performed. It may be performed as an effect using lighting or extinguishing of the lights, movement of the movable body 32, or any effect device including some or all of these.

As a performance executed according to the progress of the game, the "left", "middle", "right" decorative pattern display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R provided on the image display device 5 display the first special pattern game or the first special pattern display area 5L, 5C, and 5R. 2. Corresponding to the start of the special figure game, variable display of decorative symbols is started. At the timing when the display result (also referred to as a fixed special pattern) is stopped and displayed in the first special pattern game or the second special pattern game, the fixed decorative pattern (a combination of three decorative patterns) that is the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern ) is also stopped and displayed (derived).

During the period from when the variable display of the decorative symbols starts until it ends, the mode of the variable display of the decorative symbols may become a predetermined reach mode (reach is established). Here, the reach mode refers to the variable display of decorative symbols that are not yet displayed while the decorative symbols that are stopped and displayed on the screen of the image display device 5 form part of a jackpot combination that will be described later. This refers to the manner in which the situation continues.

Furthermore, a ready-to-win effect is executed in response to the above-mentioned ready-to-win mode being set during the variable display of the decorative symbols. In the pachinko gaming machine 1, the percentage of display results (display results of special pattern games and display results of variable display of decorative symbols) becoming a "jackpot" (also referred to as jackpot reliability or jackpot expectation level) is determined depending on the performance mode. A plurality of different types of reach effects are executed. The reach performance includes, for example, normal reach and super reach, which has higher jackpot reliability than normal reach.

When the display result of the special figure game becomes a "jackpot", a fixed decorative pattern that becomes a predetermined jackpot combination is derived as a display result of the variable display of decorative patterns on the screen of the image display device 5 (decorative pattern). The display result of the variable display of symbols is a "jackpot"). As an example, the same decorative symbols (for example, "7", etc.) are all stopped and displayed on predetermined valid lines in the "left", "middle", and "right" decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R. .

In the case of a "probable variable jackpot" that is controlled to a variable probability state after the end of the jackpot gaming state, odd-numbered decorative symbols (for example, "7", etc.) are stopped and displayed, and the variable probability state is changed after the jackpot gaming state ends. In the case of an uncontrolled "uncertain variable jackpot (normal jackpot)", even-numbered decorative symbols (for example, "6", etc.) may be stopped and displayed all together. In this case, the odd-numbered decorative patterns are also referred to as variable probability patterns, and the even-numbered decorative patterns are also referred to as non-probable variable patterns (normal patterns). After reaching a reach mode with a non-probability variable pattern, a promotion performance that ultimately becomes a "probability variable jackpot" may be executed.

When the display result of the special pattern game is "miss", the mode of variable display of the decorative pattern does not become the reach mode, and the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern is a fixed decorative pattern (" ) may be stopped and displayed (the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern may be "non-reach out"). In addition, if the display result is "miss", after the variable display mode of the decorative pattern becomes the reach mode, the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern is a predetermined reach combination that is not a jackpot combination ("reach is off"). '') may be displayed in a stopped state (the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern may be "out of reach").

The performances that can be performed by the pachinko gaming machine 1 also include displaying the above-mentioned variable display compatible display (pending display and active display). In addition, as other effects, for example, a preview effect that foretells the reliability of the jackpot is executed during the variable display of the decorative symbols. The preview performance includes a preview performance that foretells the reliability of a jackpot in a variable display that is currently being executed, and a preview performance that foretells the reliability of a jackpot in a variable display before execution (a variable display whose execution is pending). As the pre-read preview performance, a performance that changes the display mode of the variable display compatible display (suspended display or active display) to a different mode than usual may be performed.

In addition, in the image display device 5, by temporarily stopping the decorative pattern during the variable display of the decorative pattern and then restarting the variable display, one variable display can be made to appear pseudo as multiple variable displays. A pseudo-continuous performance may also be executed.

Even during the jackpot game state, a jackpot performance for notifying the jackpot game state is executed. As the jackpot performance, a performance that notifies the number of rounds or a promotion performance that indicates that the value of the jackpot game state is improved may be executed.

Further, for example, when a special figure game or the like is not being executed, a demonstration image is displayed on the image display device 5 (a customer waiting demonstration effect is executed).

[Substrate configuration]
The pachinko game machine 1 is equipped with a main board 11, an effect control board 12, an audio control board 13, a lamp control board 14, a relay board 15, etc. as shown in FIG. 3, for example. In addition, various boards such as a payout control board, an information terminal board, a firing control board, etc. are arranged on the back of the pachinko game machine 1. Furthermore, a power supply board 17 is also mounted. Various control boards are not only electronic circuit boards such as printed wiring boards with conductor patterns on which electrical components can be mounted, but also electronic circuit boards that are configured to have electrical components mounted on them to achieve specific electrical functions. This concept includes electronic circuit mounting boards.

A power switch 91 is connected to the power supply board 17, and by operating the power switch 91 (turning it on), power from an AC power source such as AC 100V in an external power supply such as a commercial power supply is transferred to the power supply board 17. It can be supplied to electrical components including various control boards such as the main board 11 and the production control board 12. The power supply board 17 includes, for example, a rectifier circuit for converting alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC), a power supply circuit for converting a predetermined direct current voltage into a specific direct current voltage (for example, 12 V direct current, 5 V direct current, etc.), etc. We are prepared.

The main board 11 is a control board on the main side, and includes the progress of the above-mentioned games in the pachinko gaming machine 1 (execution of the special drawing game (including management of reservations), execution of the general drawing game (including management of reservations), jackpot, etc. It has a function to control the gaming state, gaming state, etc.). The main board 11 includes a game control microcomputer 100, a switch circuit 110, a solenoid circuit 111, and the like.

The game control microcomputer 100 mounted on the main board 11 is, for example, a one-chip microcomputer, and includes a ROM (Read Only Memory) 101, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 102, and a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 103. , a random number circuit 104, and an I/O (Input/Output port) 105.

The CPU 103 performs processing for controlling the progress of the game (processing for realizing the functions of the main board 11) by executing a program stored in the ROM 101. At this time, various data stored in the ROM 101 (variation patterns described later, production control commands described later, data such as various tables referred to when making various decisions described later) are used, and the RAM 102 is used as the main memory. . The RAM 102 serves as a backup RAM in which the stored contents are saved for a predetermined period even if the power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 1 is stopped, in part or in whole. Note that all or part of the program stored in the ROM 101 may be loaded into the RAM 102 and executed on the RAM 102.

The random number circuit 104 updatesably counts numerical data indicating various random numbers (gaming random numbers) used when controlling the progress of the game. The gaming random number may be updated by the CPU 103 executing a predetermined computer program (updated by software).

The I/O 105 includes, for example, an input port into which various signals (detection signals to be described later) are input, and various signals (first special symbol display device 4A, second special symbol display device 4B, normal symbol display device 20, first pending). It is configured to include an output port for transmitting a signal for controlling (driving) the display 25A, the second hold display 25B, the ordinary card hold display 25C, etc., and a solenoid drive signal.

The switch circuit 110 receives detection signals (when a game ball passes or A detection signal indicating that the switch has entered and the switch has been turned on) is taken in and transmitted to the game control microcomputer 100. The transmission of the detection signal means that the passage or entry of the game ball has been detected.

A reset signal, a power-off signal, and a clear signal from the power supply board 17 are taken into the switch circuit 110 and transmitted to the game control microcomputer 100. The reset signal is an operation stop signal for stopping the operation of a control circuit such as the game control microcomputer 100, and can be output using either a power supply monitoring circuit, a watchdog timer built-in IC, or a system reset IC. It's good to have. The power-off signal becomes an OFF state when a predetermined power supply voltage used in the pachinko game machine 1 exceeds a predetermined value, and becomes an ON state when a period in which the predetermined power supply voltage is below a predetermined value continues for a power-off reference time or longer. Become. The clear signal is turned on, for example, when a clear switch 92 provided on the power supply board 17 is pressed.

The solenoid circuit 111 sends a solenoid drive signal (for example, a signal to turn on the solenoid 81 and the solenoid 82) from the game control microcomputer 100 to the solenoid 81 for the normal electric accessory and the solenoid 82 for the big prize opening door. Transmit.

A display monitor 29, a display changeover switch 31, a setting key 51, a setting changeover switch 52, and a door open sensor 90 are connected to the main board 11. The door opening sensor 90 detects opening of the gaming machine frame 3 including the glass door frame 3a.

The main board 11 (game control microcomputer 100) is a production control board that sends production control commands (commands that specify (notify) the progress of the game, etc.) according to the progress of the game as part of the control of the progress of the game. Supply to 12. The production control command output from the main board 11 is relayed by the relay board 15 and supplied to the production control board 12. The performance control command includes, for example, various decision results on the main board 11 (for example, display results of the special figure game (including jackpot type), fluctuation patterns used when executing the special figure game (details will be described later), etc. )), game status (for example, start and end of variable display, opening status of big prize opening, occurrence of winnings, number of pending memories, game status), occurrence of errors, etc. are included.

The production control board 12 is a sub-side control board independent of the main board 11, and receives production control commands and performs production (various productions according to the progress of the game) based on the received production control commands. It has a function of executing various notifications (including various notifications such as driving the movable body 32, notification of errors, notification of power outage recovery, etc.).

The performance control board 12 is equipped with a performance control CPU 120, a ROM 121, a RAM 122, a display control section 123, a random number circuit 124, and an I/O 125.

The production control CPU 120 executes a program stored in the ROM 121 to perform processing together with the display control unit 123 to execute the production (processing for realizing the above-mentioned functions of the production control board 12; (including decisions, etc.). At this time, various data (data such as various tables) stored in the ROM 121 are used, and the RAM 122 is used as the main memory.

The performance control CPU 120 displays execution of the performance based on detection signals from the controller sensor unit 35A and the push sensor 35B (a signal that is output when an operation by a player is detected, and a signal that appropriately indicates the operation content). The control unit 123 may also be instructed.

The display control unit 123 includes a VDP (Video Display Processor), a CGROM (Character Generator ROM), a VRAM (Video RAM), etc., and executes a performance based on a performance execution instruction from the performance control CPU 120.

The display control unit 123 causes the image display device 5 to display a performance image by supplying a video signal corresponding to the performance to be executed to the image display device 5 based on a performance execution instruction from the performance control CPU 120. The display control unit 123 further supplies a sound designation signal (a signal that designates the sound to be output) to the sound control board 13 in order to output sound in synchronization with the display of the effect images and turn on/off the game effect lamps 9. or supplies a lamp signal (a signal specifying the lighting/extinguishing mode of the lamp) to the lamp control board 14. Further, the display control unit 123 supplies a signal for operating the movable body 32 to the movable body 32 or a drive circuit that drives the movable body 32.

The audio control board 13 is equipped with various circuits that drive the speakers 8L and 8R, and drives the speakers 8L and 8R based on the sound designation signal, and outputs the sound specified by the sound designation signal from the speakers 8L and 8R. let

The lamp control board 14 is equipped with various circuits that drive the game effect lamps 9, drives the game effect lamps 9 based on the lamp signals, and turns on/off the game effect lamps 9 in a manner specified by the lamp signals. do. In this way, the display control unit 123 controls the audio output and the lighting/extinguishing of the lamp.

Note that the production control CPU 120 executes audio output, control of lamp lighting/extinguishing (supply of sound designation signals and lamp signals, etc.), and control of the movable body 32 (supply of signals for operating the movable body 32, etc.) You can do it like this.

The random number circuit 124 updatesably counts numerical data indicating various random numbers (random numbers for effects) used to execute various effects. The performance random number may be updated by the performance control CPU 120 executing a predetermined computer program (updated by software).

The I/O 125 mounted on the production control board 12 is an input port for receiving production control commands transmitted from the main board 11, for example, and for transmitting various signals (video signal, sound designation signal, lamp signal). It consists of an output port and an output port.

Boards other than the main board 11, such as the production control board 12, the audio control board 13, and the lamp control board 14, are also referred to as subboards. A plurality of sub-boards may be provided for each function as in the pachinko gaming machine 1, or one sub-board may be configured to have a plurality of functions.

[motion]
Next, the operation (function) of the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be explained.

[Main operations of main board 11]
First, the main operations of the main board 11 will be explained. When power supply to the pachinko game machine 1 is started, the game control microcomputer 100 is activated, and the CPU 103 executes game control main processing. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the game control main processing executed by the CPU 103 on the main board 11.

In the game control main process shown in FIG. 4, the CPU 103 first sets interrupts to be prohibited (step S1). Next, necessary initial settings are performed (step S2). The initial settings include stack pointer settings, register settings for built-in devices (CTC (counter/timer circuit), parallel input/output ports, etc.), settings to make the RAM 102 accessible, and the like.

Next, it is determined whether the recovery conditions are satisfied (step S3). The recovery condition can be satisfied when the clear signal is off, there is backup data, and the backup RAM is normal. If, for example, a clear switch provided on the power supply board 17 is pressed when power supply to the pachinko game machine 1 is started, an on-state clear signal is input to the game control microcomputer 100. If such an on-state clear signal is input, it may be determined in step S3 that the recovery condition is not satisfied. It is sufficient that the backup data can be stored in the RAM 102, which serves as a backup RAM for game control. In step S3, the presence or absence of backup data, the presence or absence of data errors, etc. may be checked or inspected to determine whether the recovery conditions can be met.

If the recovery condition is satisfied (step S3; Yes), the setting confirmation process (step S5) is executed after executing the recovery process (step S4). Through the recovery process in step S4, a work area is set based on the contents stored in the RAM 102. By setting the work area using the backup data stored in the RAM 102, the gaming state can be restored to the state it was in when the power supply stopped. For example, if the special symbols are changing, the special symbol can be changed from the state before the stoppage. It is good if it is possible to restart the fluctuation of the symbols.

If the recovery condition is not satisfied (step S3; No), initialization processing (step S6) is performed, and then setting change processing (step S7) is performed. The initialization process in step S6 includes a clear process for clearing the flags, counters, and buffers stored in the RAM 102, and initial values are set in the work area by executing the clear process.

In the setting confirmation process of step S5, it is determined whether predetermined setting confirmation conditions are satisfied. The setting confirmation condition is satisfied, for example, when the detection signal from the door open sensor 90 is on and the setting key 51 is turned on when power supply is started. The setting confirmation process in step S5 is executed when the recovery conditions including that the clear signal is in the OFF state are satisfied in step S3. Therefore, since the setting confirmation condition can be satisfied only when the clear signal is in the OFF state, the fact that the clear signal is in the OFF state can also be included in the setting confirmation condition.

If the setting confirmation conditions are satisfied in the setting confirmation process in step S5, the setting confirmation state is reached in which the setting values set in the pachinko gaming machine 1 can be confirmed, and the settings are changed from the main board 11 to the performance control board 12. A confirmation start command is sent. In the setting confirmation state, the setting values set in the pachinko gaming machine 1 can be confirmed by the display on the display monitor 29. When ending the setting confirmation state, a setting confirmation end command is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12.

When the pachinko game machine 1 is in the setting confirmation state, it may be in a game stop state in which the progress of the game in the pachinko game machine 1 is stopped. When the game is in the stopped state, firing of game balls by operating the batting operation handle, detection of game balls by various switches, etc. are stopped, and the first special symbol display device 4A, second special symbol display device 4B, and normal symbols are stopped. The display 20 may be controlled so as to stop displaying losing symbols or the like, or to display a display corresponding to a game stop state different from losing symbols. When the setting confirmation state ends, the accompanying game stop state may also end.

In the setting change process of step S7, it is determined whether predetermined setting change conditions are satisfied. The setting change condition is satisfied, for example, when the detection signal from the door open sensor 90 is on and the setting key 51 is turned on when power supply is started. The setting change condition may include that the clear signal is in an on state.

If the setting change conditions are satisfied in the setting change process in step S7, the setting change state is entered in which the setting values set in the pachinko gaming machine 1 can be changed, and the settings are changed from the main board 11 to the performance control board 12. A start change command is sent. In the setting change state, the setting value is displayed on the display monitor 29, and the numerical value displayed on the display monitor 29 is sequentially updated and displayed every time an operation of the setting changeover switch 52 is detected. Thereafter, based on the setting key 51 being turned off by an operation by an attendant at the game parlor, etc., the setting value displayed on the display monitor 29 is stored (updated storage) in the backup area of the RAM 102, and the setting value displayed on the display monitor 29 is stored (updated storage). Turn off the light. When ending the setting change state, a setting change end command is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12.

When the pachinko game machine 1 is in the setting change state, the pachinko game machine 1 may be placed in the game stop state in the same way as when it is in the setting confirmation state. When the setting change state ends, the accompanying game stop state may also end.

On the production control board 12 side, when receiving the setting confirmation start command or the setting change start command, control may be performed to notify that the setting is being confirmed or that the setting is being changed. For example, a predetermined image may be displayed on the image display device 5, a predetermined sound may be output from the speakers 8L and 8R, or a light emitting member such as a game effect lamp 9 may be caused to emit light in a predetermined manner.

The clear signal is turned on, for example, by pressing down a clear switch provided on the power supply board 17. Therefore, when the power supply is started, if the detection signal from the door open sensor 90 is on and the setting key 51 is on, then if the clear switch is on, the initialization process of step S6 and step The setting change process in S7 is executed to enable control to the setting change state, and if the clear switch is off, the recovery process in step S4 and the setting confirmation process in step S5 are executed to enable control to the setting confirmation state. When power supply is started, if the detection signal from the door open sensor 90 is off or the setting key 51 is off, the initialization process of step S6 is executed if the clear switch is on. However, if the clear switch is off, the recovery process in step S4 is executed, but the setting confirmation state is not controlled.

After executing the setting confirmation process or the setting change process, the CPU 103 executes a random number circuit setting process to initialize the random number circuit 104 (step S8). Then, the register of the CTC built in the game control microcomputer 100 is set so that a timer interrupt is periodically generated every predetermined time (for example, 2 ms) (step S9), and the interrupt is permitted (step S10). ). After that, loop processing begins. Thereafter, an interrupt request signal is sent from the CTC to the CPU 103 at predetermined intervals (for example, 2 ms), and the CPU 103 can periodically execute timer interrupt processing.

The CPU 103, which has executed such game control main processing, receives the interrupt request signal from the CTC and, upon accepting the interrupt request, executes the game control timer interrupt processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. When starting the game control timer interrupt process shown in FIG. It is determined whether detection signals are received from various switches such as the switch 22B and the count switch 23 (step S21). Next, by executing a predetermined main-side error process, the pachinko gaming machine 1 is diagnosed for abnormality, and a warning can be issued if necessary according to the diagnosis result (step S22). Thereafter, by executing a predetermined information output process, for example, jackpot information (information indicating the number of jackpot occurrences, etc.) and starting information (starting Data such as information indicating the number of winnings, etc.) and probability fluctuation information (information indicating the number of times the probability variable state has been reached, etc.) are output (step S23).

Following the information output process, a gaming random number updating process is executed to update at least a part of the gaming random numbers used on the main board 11 side by software (step S24). After this, the CPU 103 executes special symbol process processing (step S25). The CPU 103 executes special symbol process processing for each timer interrupt, thereby realizing management of execution and suspension of the special symbol game, control of the jackpot game state, control of the game state, and the like.

Following the special symbol process, the normal symbol process is executed (step S26). The CPU 103 executes the normal pattern process processing for each timer interrupt, thereby managing execution and suspension of the normal pattern game based on the detection signal from the gate switch 21 (based on the passing of the game ball to the passing gate 41), This makes it possible to control the opening of the variable winning ball device 6B based on the "normal map hit". The normal pattern game is executed by driving the normal pattern display 20, and the number of normal patterns pending is displayed by lighting the normal pattern pending display 25C.

After executing the normal symbol process processing, processing when a power outage occurs, processing for paying out prize balls, etc. may be performed as part of the game control timer interrupt processing. After that, the CPU 103 executes command control processing (step S27). The CPU 103 may set transmission control commands in each of the above processes. In the command control process of step S27, a process is performed in which the effect control command set for transmission is transmitted to a sub-side control board such as the effect control board 12. After executing the command control process, interrupts are permitted, and then the game control timer interrupt process is ended.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an example of the process executed in step S25 shown in FIG. 5 as the special symbol process process. In this special symbol process, the CPU 103 first executes a starting winning determination process (step S101).

In the starting winning determination process, a process is executed to detect the occurrence of a starting winning, store pending information in a predetermined area of the RAM 102, and update the pending storage number. When a starting prize occurs, a random number value for determining the display result (including the type of jackpot) and fluctuation pattern is extracted and stored as pending information. Furthermore, processing for pre-reading and determining display results and fluctuation patterns may be performed based on the extracted random numbers. After storing the pending information and the number of pending memories, transmission settings are made to the production control board 12 to send a production control command for specifying the occurrence of a starting prize, the number of pending memories, and judgment results such as pre-reading judgment. be exposed. The performance control command at the time of start winning that is set to be transmitted is transferred from the main board 11 to the performance control board 12 by, for example, executing the command control process in step S27 shown in FIG. 4 after the special symbol process process is completed. transmitted to.

After executing the starting winning determination process in step S101, the CPU 103 selects and executes any of the processes in steps S110 to S120 according to the value of the special symbol process flag provided in the RAM 102. In addition, in each process (steps S110 to S120) of the special symbol process process, transmission settings are made to transmit the performance control command corresponding to each process to the performance control board 12.

The special symbol normal process in step S110 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is "0" (initial value). In this special symbol normal processing, it is determined whether or not to start the first special symbol game or the second special symbol game based on the presence or absence of reservation information. In addition, in the special symbol normal processing, based on the random number value for determining the display result, the display result determines whether or not the display result of the special symbol or decorative symbol is a "jackpot" and if it is a "jackpot", the jackpot type. is determined (predetermined) before it is derived and displayed. Further, in the special symbol normal processing, a confirmed special symbol (either a jackpot symbol or a losing symbol) to be stopped and displayed in the special symbol game is set in accordance with the determined display result. After that, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to "1", and the special symbol normal processing ends. Note that the special pattern game using the second special pattern may be executed with priority over the special pattern game using the first special pattern (also referred to as special pattern 2 priority play). Furthermore, the winning order of the game balls in the first starting winning hole and the second starting winning hole may be stored, and the starting conditions for the special figure game may be established in the winning order (also referred to as winning order completion).

When making various decisions based on random numbers, various tables (tables in which decision values to be compared with random numbers are assigned to decision results) stored in the ROM 101 are referred to. The same applies to other decisions on the main board 11 and various decisions on the production control board 12. In the production control board 12, various tables are stored in the ROM 121.

The variation pattern setting process in step S111 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "1". This fluctuation pattern setting process includes a process of determining one of multiple types of fluctuation patterns using a random value for determining the fluctuation pattern, based on the pre-determined result of whether or not the display result is a "jackpot". It is included. In the variation pattern setting process, when the variation pattern is determined, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "2", and the variation pattern setting process ends.

The variation pattern includes the execution time of the special figure game (special figure variation time) (also the execution time of the variable display of decorative symbols), the variable display mode of the ornamental symbols (the presence or absence of reach, etc.), and the variable display period of the decorative symbols. It specifies the content of the performance (type of reach performance, etc.), and is also called a variable display pattern.

The special symbol variation process in step S112 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is "2". This special symbol variation process includes a process of making settings for varying the special symbol in the first special symbol display device 4A and second special symbol display device 4B, and the elapsed time since the special symbol started to fluctuate. It includes processes such as measuring. It is also determined whether the measured elapsed time has reached the special figure fluctuation time corresponding to the fluctuation pattern. Then, when the elapsed time after starting the variation of the special symbol reaches the special symbol variation time, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to "3" and the special symbol variation process ends.

The special symbol stop process in step S113 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is "3". In this special symbol stopping process, the fluctuation of the special symbol is stopped in the first special symbol display device 4A and the second special symbol display device 4B, and the finalized special symbol that becomes the display result of the special symbol is stopped and displayed (derived). Contains processing to configure settings for Then, when the display result is a "jackpot", the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "4". When the display result is "lost", the game state is also updated when the time saving state or the variable probability state is controlled, and when the end of the number cut is established. When the value of the special symbol process flag is updated, the special symbol stop processing ends.

The jackpot opening preprocessing in step S114 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "4". This jackpot opening pre-processing includes processing to start a round in the jackpot game state and set the jackpot opening state based on the display result being a "jackpot", etc. It is. When the big winning opening is opened, a process is executed to supply a solenoid drive signal to the solenoid 82 for the big winning opening door. At this time, for example, depending on the jackpot type, the opening upper limit period for keeping the jackpot open and the upper limit number of rounds to be executed are set. When these settings are completed, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "5", and the jackpot release preprocessing is completed.

The jackpot opening process in step S115 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "5". This jackpot opening process includes a process of measuring the elapsed time since the jackpot opening is opened, and a process of measuring the elapsed time from when the jackpot opening is opened, and based on the measured elapsed time and the number of game balls detected by the count switch 23, the jackpot opening This includes processing for determining whether it is time to return the switch from an open state to a closed state. Then, when returning the big prize opening to the closed state, after executing a process such as stopping the supply of the solenoid drive signal to the solenoid 82 for the big winning opening door, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "6", The jackpot opening process ends.

The jackpot opening process in step S116 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "6". This jackpot opening process includes a process to determine whether the number of rounds to open the jackpot has reached the set upper limit number of runs, and a process to enter the jackpot game state when the upper limit number of runs has been reached. This includes processing to make settings for terminating the process. When the number of executions of the round has not reached the upper limit number of executions, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "5", while when the number of executions of the round has reached the upper limit number of executions, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "5". The value is updated to "7". When the value of the special figure process flag is updated, the jackpot release post-processing ends.

The jackpot end process in step S117 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "7". This jackpot ending process includes a process of waiting until the waiting time corresponding to the period in which the ending performance is executed as a performance operation to notify the end of the jackpot gaming state, and a process of waiting until the waiting time corresponding to the end of the jackpot gaming state has changed. It includes processing to perform various settings for starting control and time-saving control. When such settings are made, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "0", and the jackpot ending process ends.

The pachinko game machine 1 is configured such that the probability of winning a jackpot and the ball hitting rate change depending on the set value. For example, in the special symbol normal processing of the special symbol process processing, by using a display result determination table (winning probability) according to the set value, the jackpot winning probability and ball launch rate are changed. For example, the set value has six levels from 1 to 6, where 6 has the highest probability of winning the jackpot, and as the value decreases in the order of 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1, the probability of winning the jackpot decreases. In this example, when 6 is set as the setting value, it is the highest advantage for the player, and as the value decreases in the order of 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1, the advantage gradually decreases. . If the probability of winning the jackpot changes according to the set value, the ball launch rate may also change according to the set value. While the probability of winning a jackpot is constant regardless of the set value, the number of rounds in the jackpot game state may vary depending on the set value. The pachinko gaming machine 1 may be configured to be able to set any one of a plurality of setting values that have different degrees of advantage for the player. The setting values set in the pachinko gaming machine 1 are notified by transmitting a setting value designation command from the main board 11 side to the performance control board 12 side.

FIG. 7 shows an example of the configuration of the display result determination table. FIG. 7(A) shows a configuration example of the display result determination table for the first special symbol used when the variable special symbol is the first special symbol, and FIG. 7(B) shows a configuration example of the display result determination table for the first special symbol used when the variable special symbol is the second A configuration example of a second special figure display result determination table used in the case of a figure is shown. The display result determination table is a collection of data stored in the ROM 101. In the display result determination table, the hit determination value compared with the random value MR1 is assigned to the special symbol display result, which is a variable display result of the special symbol, according to the set value. The random number value MR1 is a random number value for determining the display result, and the value is randomly updated in the range of 0 to 65535. As the display result determination table, a common display result determination table may be used for the first special figure and the second special figure.

As shown in FIG. 7(A), when the variable special figure is the first special figure, if the setting value is 1 and the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state, it is in the range of 0 to 65535. It is a numerical value that can take a value, and among the hit judgment values that are compared with the random number MR1 for judging the special figure display result, 1020 to 1237 are assigned to "jackpot", and 65317 to 65535 are assigned to "time saving". Other numerical ranges are assigned as "outliers". In addition, if the setting value is 1 and the gaming state is variable probability, of the hit determination values mentioned above, 1020 to 1346 are assigned to "jackpot", and the other numerical ranges are assigned to "miss". Assigned. Incidentally, the case where the setting value of the first variable special figure is 2 to 6 and the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state is as shown in FIG. 7(A).

As shown in FIG. 7(B), when the variable special figure is the second special figure, if the setting value is 1 and the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state, it is in the range of 0 to 65535. It is a numerical value that can take a value, and among the hit judgment values that are compared with the random number MR1 for judging the special figure display result, 1020 to 1237 are assigned to "jackpot", and 65317 to 65425 are assigned to "time saving". Other numerical ranges are assigned as "outliers". In addition, if the setting value is 1 and the gaming state is variable probability, of the hit determination values mentioned above, 1020 to 1346 are assigned to "jackpot", and the other numerical ranges are assigned to "miss". Assigned. Incidentally, the case where the variable special figure has a setting value of 2 to 6 in the second special figure and the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state is as shown in FIG. 7(B).

Here, if we pay attention to the numerical range of the hit judgment value assigned to "Jackpot" and "Time-saving loss" in each display result judgment table, as shown in Fig. 8, when the gaming state is normal state or time-saving state In the first special figure display result determination table, the range from 1020 to 1237 of the hit determination values is set as a common numerical range of jackpot determination values for determining a jackpot regardless of the set value.

In addition, when the setting value is 1, only the common numerical range of jackpot determination values for determining jackpots is set (1020 to 1237 are assigned to "jackpot"), while setting value 2 ~ In the case of the setting value 6, the numerical range corresponding to each setting value from 1238 is set as the non-common numerical range of the jackpot determination value so as to be continuous from the common numerical range of the jackpot determination value. The non-common numerical range of this jackpot judgment value is the range of 1238 to 1253 for setting value 2, the range of 1238 to 1272 for setting value 3, the range of 1238 to 1292 for setting value 4, and the range of 1238 to 1317 for setting value 5. , the setting value 6 is set in the range of 1238 to 1346, respectively.

In other words, in the first special figure display result determination table when the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state, if the setting value is 1, the common hit determination value that can take a value in the range of 0 to 65535 is selected. Only numbers within the numerical range (1020-1237) are assigned to the "jackpot", while if the set value is 2 or more, the non-common numerical range is added to the common numerical range of the jackpot judgment values. Numbers within the range are assigned a "jackpot". Furthermore, the non-common numerical value range increases from 1238 as the set value increases.

For this reason, the jackpot probability is set at 1020 as the standard value for the jackpot determination value (jackpot standard value), and as the set value increases, the non-common numerical range that is continuous with the common numerical range increases, so the jackpot probability increases. go.

Furthermore, in the display result determination table for the first special figure when the gaming state is the normal state or the time-saving state, the range from 65317 to 65535 among the winning determination values determines whether the time-saving win or loss occurs regardless of the set value. It is set in the common numerical range of the time saving judgment value. If we pay attention to the case where the setting value is 6, as mentioned above, 1020 to 1346 of the hit judgment values are set in the numerical range of the jackpot judgment value, and there is also a time saving function. The loss judgment value is in the range of 65317 to 65535, with 65317 as the reference value for loss with time saver (loss reference value with time saver), in a numerical range different from the jackpot judgment value range (1020 to 1346) of the setting value 6. This setting prevents the numerical range of the time-saving loss judgment value from overlapping with the range of the jackpot judgment value, which changes according to each set value.

In addition, in the first special figure display result determination table when the gaming state is in a variable probability state, the range from 1020 to 1346 of the hit determination values is the jackpot determination value for determining a jackpot regardless of the setting value. It is set to a common numerical range.

When the setting value is 1, only the common numerical range of jackpot judgment values for determining jackpots is set (1020 to 1346 are assigned to "jackpot"), while setting value 2 to setting In the case of the value 6, the numerical range corresponding to each set value from 1347 is set as the non-common numerical range of the jackpot determination value so as to be continuous from the common numerical range of the jackpot determination value. The non-common numerical range of this jackpot judgment value is the range of 1347 to 1383 for setting value 2, the range of 1347 to 1429 for setting value 3, the range of 1347 to 1487 for setting value 4, and the range of 1347 to 1556 for setting value 5. , and the setting value 6 is set in the range of 1347 to 1674.

In other words, in the first special figure display result determination table when the gaming state is variable probability state, when the set value is 1, among the hit determination values that can take values in the range of 0 to 65535, the common numerical range ( 1020 to 1346) are assigned to the "jackpot", but if the set value is 2 or more, the jackpot judgment value within the range of the common numerical value range plus the non-common numerical range A numerical value is assigned to a “jackpot.” Furthermore, the non-common numerical value range increases from 1347 as the set value increases.

For this reason, the jackpot probability is set at 1020 as the standard value for the jackpot determination value (jackpot standard value), and as the set value increases, the non-common numerical range that is continuous with the common numerical range increases, so the jackpot probability increases. go.

In the second special figure display result determination table when the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state, the range from 1020 to 1237 among the hit determination values is the jackpot determination value for determining a jackpot regardless of the set value. is set to a common numerical range.

In addition, when the setting value is 1, only the common numerical range of jackpot determination values for determining jackpots is set (1020 to 1237 are assigned to "jackpot"), while setting value 2 ~ In the case of the setting value 6, the numerical range corresponding to each setting value from 1238 is set as the non-common numerical range of the jackpot determination value so as to be continuous from the common numerical range of the jackpot determination value. The non-common numerical range of this jackpot judgment value is the range of 1238 to 1253 for setting value 2, the range of 1238 to 1272 for setting value 3, the range of 1238 to 1292 for setting value 4, and the range of 1238 to 1317 for setting value 5. , the setting value 6 is set in the range of 1238 to 1346, respectively.

In other words, in this pachinko game machine 1, when the setting value is 1 in the second special symbol display result determination table when the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state, the value can be taken in the range of 0 to 65535. Among the hit judgment values, only the numbers within the common numerical range (1020 to 1237) are assigned to the "jackpot", while if the set value is 2 or more, the common numerical range of the jackpot judgment values is assigned. Numerical values within the range plus the non-common numerical value range are assigned to the "jackpot". Furthermore, the non-common numerical value range increases from 1238 as the set value increases.

For this reason, the jackpot probability is set at 1020 as the standard value for the jackpot determination value (jackpot standard value), and as the set value increases, the non-common numerical range that is continuous with the common numerical range increases, so the jackpot probability increases. go.

Furthermore, in the second special figure display result determination table when the gaming state is the normal state or the time-saving state, the range from 65317 to 65425 among the winning determination values determines whether the time-saving win or loss occurs regardless of the set value. It is set in the common numerical range of the time saving judgment value. If we pay attention to the case where the setting value is 6, as mentioned above, 1020 to 1346 of the hit judgment values are set in the numerical range of the jackpot judgment value, and there is also a time saving function. The loss judgment value is in the range of 65317 to 65425, with 65317 as the reference value for loss with time saver (loss reference value with time saver), in a numerical range different from the jackpot judgment value range (1020 to 1346) of the setting value 6. This setting prevents the numerical range of the time saving loss judgment value from overlapping with the range of the jackpot judgment value which changes according to each set value.

In the display result determination table for the second special figure when the gaming state is in a variable probability state, the range from 1020 to 1346 among the hit determination values is the common numerical value of the jackpot determination value for determining a jackpot regardless of the set value. The range is set. The characteristics of the other second special figure display result determination table are the same as the first special figure display result determination table.

As mentioned above, in this pachinko gaming machine 1, when the variable special symbol is the first special symbol, regardless of the setting value, 65317 to When the range of 65535 is set to the common numerical range with and without time saving, and the variable special symbol is the second special symbol, the setting value will be changed in both the normal state and the time saving state. Regardless, the range of 65317 to 65425 is set as a common numerical range with and without time saving. In other words, when the gaming state is normal and when the time-saving state is set, the rate at which the variable display result is a loss with time-saving is the same for all setting values, so depending on the setting value, the gambling can be prevented from becoming excessively high. Furthermore, regarding the time saving error, which is assigned a common judgment value number for each setting value, all setting values are set in a continuous numerical range from 65317, which is the reference value for the time saving error, so the display is variable. This makes it possible to reduce the processing load on the CPU 103 related to determining whether the result is a time saving or not.

In addition, in this pachinko gaming machine 1, the settable setting values are six from 1 to 6, but the setting values that can be set in the pachinko gaming machine 1 may be 5 or less or 7 or more. . Further, the smaller the set value set in the pachinko game machine 1, the more advantageous it may be to the player.

The jackpot type may be determined at different ratios depending on the set value based on the allocation of judgment values in the jackpot type judgment table. Alternatively, the jackpot type may be determined by a common ratio regardless of the setting value. The fluctuation pattern may be determined at different rates depending on the set value, based on the allocation of determination values in the fluctuation pattern determination table. Alternatively, the variation pattern may be determined at a common rate regardless of the set value. The execution rate of normal reach and super reach may differ depending on the setting value, so that the setting value may be suggested by the frequency with which normal reach and super reach are executed. Alternatively, the execution rate of normal reach and super reach may be the same regardless of the setting value. In addition, it may be possible to perform arbitrary setting suggestion effects at different rates depending on the setting value.

[Main operations of the production control board 12]
Next, the main operations in the production control board 12 will be explained. When the effect control board 12 receives power supply voltage from a power supply board or the like, the effect control CPU 120 is activated and executes effect control main processing as shown in the flowchart of FIG. When the production control main process shown in FIG. Performs register settings for the installed CTC (counter/timer circuit). In addition, initial operation control processing is executed (step S72). In the initial operation control process, control is executed to perform initial operations of the movable body 32, such as control to drive the movable body 32 to return to the origin position, and control to perform predetermined operation checks.

Thereafter, it is determined whether the timer interrupt flag is on (step S73). The timer interrupt flag is set to an on state every time a predetermined time (for example, 2 milliseconds) elapses, based on, for example, a register setting of the CTC. At this time, if the timer interrupt flag is off (step S73; No), the process of step S73 is repeatedly executed and the process waits.

Furthermore, on the side of the production control board 12, an interrupt for receiving a production control command from the main board 11 is generated in addition to a timer interrupt that occurs every time a predetermined time elapses. This interrupt is, for example, an interrupt that occurs when the effect control INT signal from the main board 11 is turned on. When an interrupt occurs due to the production control INT signal being turned on, the production control CPU 120 automatically disables interrupts, but if a CPU that does not automatically disable interrupts is used, interrupts are disabled. It is desirable to issue a prohibition order (DI order). The production control CPU 120 executes, for example, a predetermined command reception interrupt process in response to an interrupt caused by the production control INT signal being turned on. In this command reception interrupt process, an effect control command is taken in from a predetermined input port included in the I/O 125 that receives a control signal transmitted from the main board 11 via the relay board 15. The production control command taken in at this time is stored in a production control command reception buffer provided in the RAM 122, for example. After that, the production control CPU 120 sets the interrupt permission, and then ends the command reception interrupt process.

If the timer interrupt flag is on in step S73 (step S73; Yes), the timer interrupt flag is cleared and turned off (step S74), and command analysis processing is executed (step S75). In the command analysis process, for example, after reading various production control commands transmitted from the game control microcomputer 100 of the main board 11 and stored in the production control command reception buffer, the read production control commands are Corresponding settings and controls are performed. For example, the read performance control command may be stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 122 or stored in the RAM 122 so that the performance control command received and the content specified by the performance control command can be confirmed in the performance control process processing. Turn on the provided reception flag. Further, when the production control command specifies a gaming state, the display control unit 123 may be instructed to display a background according to the gaming state.

After executing the command analysis process in step S75, the production control process process is executed (step S76). In the effect control process processing, for example, the display operation of the effect image in the display area of the image display device 5, the sound output operation from the speakers 8L and 8R, the lighting operation of the decorative light emitters such as the game effect lamp 9 and the decorative LED, and the movable body 32. Control is performed to operate various presentation devices, such as driving operations. Further, regarding the content of control of performance operations using various performance devices, judgments, decisions, settings, etc. are performed in accordance with performance control commands transmitted from the main board 11.

Following the performance control process processing in step S76, a performance random number update process is executed (step S77), and at least a portion of the performance random numbers used on the performance control board 12 are updated by software. Thereafter, the process returns to step S73. Other processes may be executed before returning to the process of step S73.

FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing an example of the process executed in step S76 of FIG. 9 as the production control process process. In the performance control process shown in FIG. 10, the performance control CPU 120 first executes a pre-read notice setting process (step S161). In the pre-read preview setting process, for example, based on the performance control command at the time of start-up winning that is transmitted from the main board 11, determination, determination, setting, etc. for executing the pre-read preview performance are performed. Further, processing for displaying a pending display is executed based on the number of pending memories specified from the production control command.

After executing the process of step S161, the effect control CPU 120 selects and executes one of the following processes of steps S170 to S175, depending on the value of the effect process flag provided in the RAM 122, for example.

The variable display start waiting process in step S170 is a process that is executed when the value of the production process flag is "0" (initial value). This variable display start waiting process is a process of determining whether or not to start variable display of decorative patterns on the image display device 5 based on whether or not a command specifying the start of variable display has been received from the main board 11. Contains such as. When it is determined to start variable display of decorative symbols on the image display device 5, the value of the production process flag is updated to "1", and the variable display start waiting process is ended.

The variable display start setting process in step S171 is a process that is executed when the value of the production process flag is "1". In this variable display start setting process, based on the display result and fluctuation pattern specified by the production control command, the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern (determined decorative pattern), the mode of variable display of the decorative pattern, the reach effect, etc. It determines whether or not various performances such as preview performances are to be executed, their mode, execution start timing, and the like. Then, a performance control pattern (a collection of control data for instructing the display control unit 123 to execute the performance) that reflects the determination result etc. is set. Thereafter, based on the set performance control pattern, the display control unit 123 is instructed to start executing the variable display of decorative symbols, the value of the performance process flag is updated to "2", and the variable display start setting process is ended. The display control unit 123 causes the image display device 5 to start variable display of decorative symbols in response to an instruction to start variable display of decorative symbols.

The variable display effect processing in step S172 is a process that is executed when the value of the effect process flag is "2". In this variable display performance process, the performance control CPU 120 instructs the display control unit 123 to display a performance image based on the performance control pattern set in step S171 on the display screen of the image display device 5. , driving the movable body 32 , outputting audio and sound effects from the speakers 8L and 8R by outputting a command (sound effect signal) to the audio control board 13 , and outputting a command (illumination signal) to the lamp control board 14 . Various performance controls are executed during variable display of decorative patterns, such as turning on/off/flashing the game effect lamp 9 and decorative LEDs by outputting the output. After performing such performance control, for example, a termination code indicating the end of the variable display of decorative patterns has been read from the performance control pattern, or a command has been received from the main board 11 specifying that fixed decorative patterns should be stopped and displayed. In response to what has been done, etc., the determined decorative pattern that becomes the display result of the decorative pattern is stopped and displayed. When the fixed decorative pattern is stopped and displayed, the value of the production process flag is updated to "3", and the variable display production process is completed.

The special figure hit waiting process in step S173 is a process that is executed when the value of the production process flag is "3". In this special figure winning waiting process, the performance control CPU 120 determines whether or not a performance control command has been received from the main board 11 that designates starting a jackpot game state. Then, when receiving a production control command specifying to start a jackpot game state, the value of the production process flag is updated to "4". In addition, if the waiting time for receiving the command elapses without receiving a command specifying the start of the jackpot game state, the display result in the special figure game is determined to be a "loss", and the presentation process flag is flagged. The value of is updated to the initial value "0". When the value of the production process flag is updated, the waiting process for each special figure ends.

The jackpot performance process in step S174 is a process that is executed when the value of the performance process flag is "6". In this jackpot performance process, the performance control CPU 120 sets, for example, a performance control pattern corresponding to the performance content in the jackpot game state, and executes various performance controls in the jackpot game state based on the set content. In addition, in the jackpot production process, for example, in response to receiving a command from the main board 11 to specify ending the jackpot game state, the value of the production process flag is set to "5", which is a value corresponding to the ending production process. ” and ends the jackpot performance process.

The ending effect processing in step S175 is a process that is executed when the value of the effect process flag is "7". In this ending performance processing, the performance control CPU 120 sets a performance control pattern corresponding to the end of the jackpot game state, for example, and performs various performance controls of the ending performance at the end of the jackpot game state based on the setting contents. Execute. Thereafter, the value of the production process flag is updated to the initial value "0", and the ending production process is ended.

[Variation of basic explanation]
This invention is not limited to the pachinko gaming machine 1 explained in the basic explanation above, and various modifications and applications are possible without departing from the spirit of the invention.

The pachinko gaming machine 1 described above is a payout type gaming machine that pays out a predetermined number of game media as prizes based on the occurrence of a winning, but the game media is enclosed and points are awarded based on the occurrence of a winning. It may be an enclosed game machine.

Only one type of symbol (for example, a symbol indicating "-") may be displayed during the variable display of the special symbol, and the variable display may be performed by repeatedly displaying and extinguishing the symbol. Further, even if the symbol is displayed during the variable display, the symbol does not need to be displayed when the variable display is stopped (the symbol indicating "-" does not need to be displayed as a display result).

In the above basic explanation, the pachinko gaming machine 1 was shown as a gaming machine, but medals are inserted and a predetermined number of bets are set, and multiple types of symbols are rotated according to the operation of the operating lever by the player. A slot machine that can execute a game in which a predetermined number of medals are paid out to the player when the combination of stopped symbols becomes a specific combination of symbols when the symbols are stopped in response to the operation of the stop button (for example, a big bonus , regular bonus, RT, AT, ART, and CZ (hereinafter referred to as bonus, etc.).

The program and data for realizing the present invention are not limited to the form in which they are distributed and provided to a computer device included in the pachinko game machine 1 on a removable recording medium, but are provided in advance in a form such as a computer device etc. The software may be distributed by being installed on the storage device of the user. Furthermore, by providing a communication processing section, the program and data for realizing the present invention can be distributed by being downloaded from other devices on a network connected via a communication line or the like. I don't mind.

The game can be executed not only by attaching a removable recording medium, but also by temporarily storing the program and data downloaded via a communication line in internal memory, etc. Alternatively, the process may be executed directly using hardware resources of another device on a network connected via a communication line or the like. Furthermore, the game may be executed by exchanging data with other computer devices via a network.

In addition, in this specification, expressions that compare various proportions such as the execution rate of production (expressions such as "high", "low", "different", etc.) do not mean that one is a proportion of "0%". May be included. For example, one of the ratios is "0%" and the other is "100%" or a ratio of less than "100%".

[Explanation regarding characteristic part 131SG]
Next, the pachinko gaming machine 1 regarding the feature section 131SG will be explained. In addition, in the explanation of each step of the flowchart in the characteristic section 131SG, for example, the part written as "Step S1" is abbreviated as "S1" or "131SGS1", and "Normal reach" is replaced by "N reach" and "Super reach". It is sometimes abbreviated as "SP reach". Furthermore, in the feature section 131SG, "variation" may be referred to as "variable display". In addition, configurations that are similar to those of the pachinko game machine 1 described in the basic explanation or have different shapes, arrangement positions, etc. but have similar functions will be designated by the same reference numerals and detailed explanations will be omitted. In addition, in the following, the front side of Fig. 11-1 is the front (front, front) side of the pachinko game machine 1, and the back side is the back (rear) side, and the top, bottom, left, and right sides of the pachinko game machine 1 when viewed from the front side. The explanation will be based on the direction. Note that the front surface of the pachinko game machine 1 in this embodiment is the facing surface that faces the player who plays the game with the pachinko game machine 1.

Unlike the explanation of FIG. 7, the pachinko gaming machine 1 of this embodiment can set any one of a plurality of setting values (for example, 1 to 6) that have different ratios of displaying jackpot display results. This game machine will be described as a gaming machine in which the variable display result is not ``time saving, winning or losing'' and the jackpot probability is set to about 1/319.

In addition, after the power is turned on to the gaming machine (when RAM clear processing is executed) or after a jackpot occurs, variable display is continuously executed a predetermined number of times (in this example, 900 times) in a low certainty state. If the next jackpot does not occur, the game may be controlled to a time saving state B (also referred to as a relief time saving state or relief time saving state) among a plurality of types of time saving states. This relief time reduction is provided to help players who have not won a jackpot despite playing games for a long period of time (for example, to reduce investment in games). , is a gaming state also called "play time" in this embodiment.

In this embodiment, when the jackpot game state is controlled to be the jackpot A of the plurality of types of jackpots, 110 variable displays are performed in the time-saving state A (low probability/high base state) among the plurality of time-saving states. Therefore, the number of variable display times from the end of the time saving state A to the arrival of the relief time saving is 790 times, but if the jackpot game state is controlled to be either jackpot B or jackpot C among multiple types of jackpots. Since the variable display is performed 110 times in the variable probability state (high probability/high base state), the number of variable displays remaining from the end of the variable probability state to the arrival of the relief time reduction is 900 times. Further, in this embodiment, the number of variable display times in the time saving state B (low probability/high base state) based on the value of the rescue time saving number counter becoming "0" is 1100 times.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11-1, at the lower left of the image display device 5, it is possible to display a pending display corresponding to the first special symbol pending memory for which a starting prize has been won but the variable display has not been executed yet. A first special figure pending storage display area 130SG005D is provided, and in the lower right corner of the image display device 5, a pending display corresponding to the second special figure pending memory in which a starting prize has been won but the variable display has not been executed yet is displayed.

It is possible to display a small pattern 131SG005M in which a variable display is executed, and in the upper right corner of the image display device 5, it is possible to display the remaining number of variable displays until the time saving state B (relief time saving state) is controlled, which will be described later. It is possible to display a remaining number of rescue time reduction attainment display 131SG005Z indicating the remaining number of rescue time reduction attainment.

Furthermore, the left side of the image display device 5 on the game board 2 of the pachinko game machine 1 is formed in a left game area 2L where game balls can flow down, and the right side of the image display device 5 on the game board 2 is formed with a left side where game balls can flow down. It is formed in the right game area 2R that can be flowed down. The game ball weakly launched by the firing device flows down the first path as the left game area 2L, and the game ball strongly launched by the firing device flows down the second path as the right game area 2R.

Further, at the lower left of the image display device 5, a first reserved memory display area 131SG005D that indicates the number of reserved special symbols by the number of reserved displays is displayed, and at the lower right of the image display device 5, a second reserved special symbol is displayed. A second pending storage display area 131SG005U is provided in which the number of stored items is indicated by the number of pending displays. Furthermore, an active display area 131SG005F is provided at the lower center of the image display device 5, in which a pending display corresponding to the variable display being executed is displayed as an active display.

In this embodiment, the special variable winning ball device 7 is formed with a first big winning hole and a second big winning hole along the downward direction of the game balls. The first big prize opening is opened and closed by driving the solenoid 131SG082A (see Figure 11-2) to open and close the big winning opening door (not shown), which allows the game ball to enter the open state and the game ball to enter the closed state where the game ball cannot enter. It is possible to change the state. The second grand prize opening is opened and closed by driving the solenoid 131SG082B (see Figure 11-2) to open and close the grand prize opening door (not shown). It is possible to change the state.

Furthermore, a first count switch 131SG023A that can detect game balls is provided in the first grand prize opening, and a second count switch 131SG023B that can detect game balls is provided in the second grand prize opening. There is.

In other words, the game balls flowing down the left gaming area 2L (first route) can win in the general winning opening 10 and the first starting winning opening formed by the winning ball device 6A, and can win in the right gaming area 2R (first route). 2 paths), the game balls flowing down the second starting winning hole formed by the variable winning ball device 6B, the general winning hole 10, the first big winning hole or the second big winning hole formed by the special variable winning ball device 7, It is possible to win a prize, and it is also possible to pass through the passage gate 41.

FIG. 11-3(A) is an explanatory diagram illustrating random numbers counted on the main board 11 side. As shown in FIG. 11-3(A), in this embodiment, on the main board 11 side, in addition to the random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result, the random number MR2 for determining the jackpot type, and the random number MR2 for determining the type of fluctuation pattern. Numerical data indicating each of a random number MR3 for determining a variation pattern, a random number MR4 for determining a fluctuation pattern, a random number MR5 for determining a normal figure display result, and a random number MR6 for determining an initial value of MR5 is controlled to be countable. . Note that random numbers other than these may be used to enhance the gaming effect. These random numbers MR1 to MR6 may be counted by updating software in the CPU 103 using different random counters, or may be updated by the random number circuit 104. The random number circuit 104 may be built in the game control microcomputer 100, or may be configured as a random number circuit chip different from the game control microcomputer 100. The random numbers used to control the progress of the game are also referred to as gaming random numbers.

Although this embodiment exemplifies a mode in which each of the random numbers MR1 to MR6 is used as a value in the range shown in FIG. 11-3(A), the present invention is not limited to this, and each of these The range of the random numbers MR1 to MR6 may be varied depending on the setting values set in the pachinko gaming machine 1.

In the game control microcomputer 100, the CPU 103 executes a program read from the ROM 101, and uses the RAM 102 as a work area to execute various processes for controlling the progress of the game in the pachinko game machine 1. Furthermore, the CPU 103 is capable of generating all of the various random numbers used on the main board 11 side by executing a random number generation program.

The ROM 101 included in the game control microcomputer 100 stores, in addition to game control programs, various table data used to control the progress of the game. For example, the ROM 101 stores table data that constitutes a plurality of determination tables prepared for the CPU 103 to make various determinations and decisions. The ROM 101 also contains table data constituting a plurality of control pattern tables used by the CPU 103 to output various control signals from the main board 11, and variable display of each symbol in the variable display of special symbols, normal symbols, etc. A variation pattern determination table and the like that store a plurality of types of variation patterns serving as modes are stored.

FIG. 11-3(B) shows a configuration example of the special figure display result determination table stored in the ROM 101. In this embodiment, a common special figure display result determination table is used for the first special figure and the second special figure as the special figure display result determination table, but the present invention is not limited to this. Separate special figure display result determination tables may be used for the first special figure and the second special figure.

The special figure display result determination table is a variable display result and a special figure game using the first special figure by the first special figure display device 4A and a special figure game using the second special figure by the second special figure display device 4B. Before the finalized special symbol is derived and displayed, it is referred to in order to determine whether or not to control the variable display result as a "jackpot" into a jackpot game state based on the random number MR1 for determining the special symbol display result. This is the table that will be used.

In the special figure display result determination table in this embodiment, the special figure display results are displayed depending on whether the gaming state in the pachinko game machine 1 is a normal state, a time-saving state (low probability state), or a variable probability state (high probability state). A numerical value (judgment value) that is compared with the random value MR1 for display result determination is assigned to the special figure display result of "big hit" or "miss".

In the special figure display result determination table, the table data indicating the determination value to be compared with the random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result is used to determine whether or not to treat the special figure display result as a "jackpot" and control it to a jackpot gaming state. This is the judgment data assigned to the result. In the special figure display result determination table in this embodiment, when the gaming state is in the variable probability state (high probability state), more judgment values are determined as "jackpot" than when the gaming state is in the normal state or the time saving state (low probability state). ” is assigned to the special figure display result. As a result, in a variable probability state (high probability state) in which probability variable control is performed in the pachinko game machine 1, when the pachinko game machine 1 is in a normal state or a time saving state (low probability state), the special figure display result is set as a "jackpot" and the jackpot game state is controlled. Then, compared to the probability determined (approximately 1/319.68 in this example), the probability that the special figure display result is determined to be a "jackpot" and the jackpot game state is controlled becomes higher (approximately 1/319.68 in this example). /80.02). That is, in the special figure display result determination table, when the gaming state in the pachinko gaming machine 1 is a variable probability state (high probability state), it is determined that control is to be made into a jackpot gaming state compared to when it is in a normal state or a time saving state. In order to increase the probability, the determination data is assigned to the determination result of whether or not to control the jackpot game state.

The determination table stored in the ROM 101 includes, in addition to the display result determination table for the first special symbol and the display result determination table for the second special symbol shown in FIG. 7, the jackpot type determination table (C1) shown in FIG. In addition to the jackpot type determination table (for the second special symbol) shown in Figure 11-3 (C2), the fluctuation pattern type determination table, the fluctuation pattern determination table, and the regular pattern display result determination table (not shown) ), a regular pattern fluctuation pattern determination table (not shown), etc.

The pachinko gaming machine 1 of this embodiment is configured such that the probability of winning the jackpot (ball launch rate) does not change depending on the setting value, but the probability of winning the jackpot (ball launch rate) varies depending on the setting value. It is also possible to have a configuration in which the values change.

[Jackpot type determination table]
FIG. 11-3 (C1) and FIG. 11-3 (C2) are explanatory diagrams showing the jackpot type determination table (for the first special symbol) and the jackpot type determination table (for the second special symbol) stored in the ROM 101. It is. Among these, in Figure 11-3 (C1), the jackpot type is determined using the reserved memory based on the game ball entering the first starting prize hole (that is, when the first special symbol is variablely displayed). This is a table for when Further, in FIG. 11-3 (C1), the jackpot type is determined using the reserved memory based on the game ball entering the second starting prize hole (that is, when the second special symbol is variablely displayed). This is a table of cases.

The jackpot type determination table determines whether the jackpot type is one of jackpot A to jackpot C based on the random number (MR2) for determining the jackpot when it is determined that the variable display result is to be used as a jackpot symbol. This is a table that is referenced to determine the

Here, the jackpot type in this example will be explained using FIG. 11-3(D). In this embodiment, as jackpot types, jackpot A, jackpot B, and jackpot C are provided, in which time saving control is executed over a maximum of 110 variable displays after the jackpot game state ends. In addition, these jackpot A, jackpot B, and jackpot C can be achieved by entering the V winning hole after the game ball enters the second big winning hole in the first round of the jackpot game state, and the maximum after the end of the jackpot game. This is also a jackpot in which variable probability control is executed over 110 variable displays.

In this embodiment, the open states of the variable V winning ball device (V lid) include a short open state in which the open state is short (for example, 0.1 seconds) and a long open state in which the open state is long. (for example, 15 seconds). Jackpot A is when the variable V winning ball device is in the short open state in the first round of the jackpot game state, and jackpot B and jackpot C are when the variable V winning ball device is in the long open state in the first round of the jackpot gaming state. shall be.

The jackpot game state due to "Jackpot A" changes the second big prize opening to an open state that is advantageous to the player in the first round, and changes the first big prize opening to an advantageous state for the player in the second to sixth rounds. It is a normal open jackpot that changes to an open state. In addition, in "Jackpot A", since the variable V winning ball device is in a short-circuit open state in the first round, it is extremely difficult to put the game ball into the V winning hole, and the probability variable control is not executed. Since you can't expect it, it's essentially a regular jackpot.

The jackpot game state due to "Jackpot B" changes the second jackpot in the first round to an open state that is advantageous for the player, and the first jackpot in the second to sixth rounds that is advantageous to the player. It is a normal open jackpot that changes to an open state. In addition, in "Jackpot B", the variable V winning ball device is in the long open state in the first round, so it is extremely easy to put the game ball into the V winning hole, and the probability change control is executed. Since you can expect it, it will be a real surefire jackpot.

The jackpot game state due to "Jackpot C" changes the second big prize opening to an open state that is advantageous to the player in the first round, and changes the first big prize opening to an advantageous state for the player in the second to 10th rounds. It is a normal open jackpot that changes to an open state. In addition, in "Jackpot C", the variable V winning ball device is in the long open state in the first round, so it is extremely easy to put the game ball into the V winning hole, and the probability variable control is not executed. Since you can expect it, it will be a real surefire jackpot.

In addition, in this example, a form in which three types of jackpot A to jackpot C are provided as jackpot types is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the number of jackpot types is two or less, or four. More than one type may be provided.

Also, as shown in Figure 11-3 (C1), in the jackpot type judgment table (for the first special symbol), out of the range of judgment values of MR2 from 0 to 299, 0 to 149 are assigned to jackpot A. 150 to 299 are assigned to jackpot B. On the other hand, as shown in Figure 11-3 (C2), in the jackpot type judgment table (for the second special symbol), out of the range of judgment values of MR2 from 0 to 299, 0 to 99 are assigned to jackpot B. 100 to 299 are assigned to jackpot C.

In other words, in this embodiment, when the variable special symbol is the first special symbol, the game ball is in a state where it is easy to enter the V winning hole in the first round of the jackpot game state at a rate of 50%, so that the jackpot is achieved. After the game ends, both probability change control and time saving control are carried out. Furthermore, if the variable special symbol is the second special symbol, the game ball will be in a state where it is easy to enter the V winning hole in the first round of the jackpot game state with a probability of 100%, and the probability change control will be performed after the jackpot game ends. and time-saving control are both implemented.

In this example, even if the jackpot A is achieved, it is possible to win a V prize when the V lid is short-circuited, but it is extremely rare. , V will not be won and probability variable control will not be executed. In addition, even in the case of jackpot B and jackpot C, it is possible but extremely rare that you will not be able to win a prize when the V lid is in a long open state, so it will be jackpot B and jackpot C. In this case, the description will be made on the assumption that V is won and probability variable control is executed.

In addition, in this example, the jackpot type is determined using MR2, which is a random number value for jackpot type determination, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the jackpot type is determined by the special figure display result determination. It may also be determined using MR1, which is a random value for.

In addition, in this embodiment, for example, as the jackpot type for the second special symbol, a form having jackpots B and C in which probability change control and time saving control can be executed 110 times after the end of the jackpot game state is exemplified. The invention is not limited to this, and for example, a jackpot D etc. may be provided in which the time saving control is performed 1009 times (variable probability state: 110 times + time saving state A: 899 times) after the end of the jackpot gaming state. By doing this, it is highly likely that there will be a jackpot next time, so the interest will be increased, and even if the probability variable control ends without a jackpot occurring in the probability variable state 110 times after the end of jackpot D, the time saving state A (low probability After performing 899 variable displays without a jackpot in the /high base state), by performing only one variable display in the normal state, the system is further controlled to the time-saving state B (relief time-saving state), which will be described later. Therefore, interest will increase.

[Number of time savings]
FIG. 11-4 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the number of time reductions for each transition trigger. As shown in FIG. 11-4, in this example, when jackpot A occurs and the game ball does not enter the probability variable area, (1) time saving control is performed 110 times, and (2) low In the time saving state A (in this embodiment, the time saving control is performed 110 times, BATTLE RUSH) in which the probability control is performed 110 times.In addition, either jackpot B or jackpot C occurs and the game enters the probability variable area. When a ball wins, (1) the time saving control is performed 110 times, and (2) the variable probability state where the variable probability control is performed 110 times (in this example, the time saving control is performed 110 times). RUSH)).In addition, when variable display is performed 900 times without being controlled by jackpot in a low accuracy state, (1) time saving control is performed 1100 times, and (2) low accuracy It is controlled to time saving state B in which the control is performed 1100 times (in this example, the play time is 1100 times shortened).However, after the end of time saving state B, the control is performed again 900 times without being controlled to hit the jackpot in a low probability state. Even if the number of changes is made, the time saving state B will not be controlled again based on this change.

Note that the relief time reduction attainment rate is the rate at which the time reduction state is controlled via the relief time reduction. Since the time saving state via the relief time saving is controlled by variable displaying n times (900 times in this embodiment) without being controlled by the jackpot gaming state, the relief time saving attainment rate K is It can be calculated as follows.

K={(1-ML)^n}×100
(K=Relief time saving arrival rate, ML=Jackpot probability, n=Number of variable displays)

Specifically, for example, if the jackpot probability ML in this embodiment is about 1/319, the relief time saving attainment rate K is 5.9%. In addition, in the case of a gaming machine that allows setting of a setting value, if the setting value with a lower jackpot probability is set, the higher the relief time shortening attainment rate becomes, the player can be rescued even with a setting value with a low jackpot probability. can do.

[Variation pattern]
FIGS. 11-5 and 11-6 are explanatory diagrams showing specific examples of variation patterns in this embodiment. The variation patterns of this embodiment are roughly divided into a loss variation pattern in which the variable display result is a loss, and a jackpot variation pattern in which the variable display result is a jackpot.

The expected jackpot of a super reach performance is the percentage of jackpots when the corresponding super reach performance is executed, and the probability of a jackpot when the corresponding super reach performance is executed is the probability of a jackpot when the corresponding super reach performance is executed. It is a value calculated by dividing by the sum of the percentage of winnings by executing the corresponding super reach effect and the percentage of losing by executing the corresponding super reach effect.

As shown in Figure 11-11(A), among the reach performances of super reach performed when the gaming state is normal, the reach performances of low base weak super reach A and low base weak super reach B are Since there is no direct jackpot, the expected jackpot is 0% for each, but from the reach effects of low base weak super reach A and low base weak super reach B, other super reaches (low base strong super reach A ~ C, low base weak super reach) may develop into a reach effect, and the expected degree of development from low base weak super reach A to other super reach reach effects is approximately 44%, and from low base weak super reach B to other super reach effects. The level of expectation for the development of Super Reach's Reach production is approximately 68%. The expected level of development of a super reach performance is the rate at which it will develop into other super reach performances when the corresponding super reach performance is executed. The rate of development is determined by the sum of the ratio of executing the relevant super reach performance and developing into another super reach performance, and the ratio of executing the relevant super reach performance and failing without developing into another super reach performance. This is the value calculated by dividing.

Also, among the super reach effects that are executed when the gaming state is normal, the jackpot expectation for the low base strong super reach A reach effect is about 20%, and the jackpot expectation for the low base strong super reach B reach effect is about 20%. The jackpot expectation level is about 25%, the jackpot expectation level for the low base strong super reach C reach effect is about 35%, and the jackpot expectation level for the low base strong super reach reach effect is about 55%. Furthermore, the jackpot expectation of the reach performance of Low Base Strong Super Reach A to C and Low Base Strongest Super Reach is as follows: when developing from Low Base Weak Super Reach A, when developing from Low Base Weak Super Reach B, and when developing from Low Base Weak Super Reach B. The expected jackpot is different when executed directly without going through Weak Super Reach A and B, and the expected jackpot for the reach performance of Low Base Strong Super Reach A, which evolved from Low Base Weak Super Reach A, is approximately 19. %, the expected jackpot of the reach effect of low base strong super reach A that evolved from low base weak super reach B is about 20%, the jackpot of the reach effect of low base strong super reach A that was executed directly without going through B The expectation level is about 21%, and the jackpot expectation of the reach performance of low base strong super reach B, which evolved from low base weak super reach A, is about 24%, and the low base strong super reach B, which developed from low base weak super reach B. The expected jackpot for the reach effect of is about 25%, and the expected jackpot for the reach effect of low base strong super reach B, which was executed directly without going through B, was about 27%, which evolved from low base weak super reach A. The jackpot expectation of the reach effect of low base strong super reach C is about 33%, and the jackpot expectation of the reach effect of low base strong super reach C, which evolved from low base weak super reach B, is about 35%. The expected jackpot for the reach performance of low base strong super reach C, which was executed directly without any hit, is about 37%, and the jackpot expectation for the reach performance of low base strong super reach, which evolved from low base weak super reach A, is about 53%. The expected jackpot of the low base strongest super reach reach effect developed from low base weak super reach B is approximately 55%, and the jackpot expectation level of the low base strongest super reach reach effect executed directly without going through B is approximately This will be 57%.

As shown in Figure 11-11(B), the jackpot expectation of the reach performance of high base super reach A executed when the gaming state is time saving state A is about 14%, and the reach performance of high base super reach B The jackpot expectation level of the reach performance of the high base super reach C is about 27%, and the jackpot expectation level of the reach performance of the high base super reach D is about 70%.

As shown in Figure 11-11(C), the jackpot expectation of the reach effect of high base super reach A executed when the gaming state is variable probability state is about 40%, and the reach effect of high base super reach B is about 40%. The jackpot expectation level is about 45%, the jackpot expectation level for the reach performance of the high base super reach C is about 60%, and the jackpot expectation level for the reach performance for the high base super reach D is about 90%.

As will be described later, in the super reach performance, it is possible to display an expectation level suggestion display that suggests the jackpot expectation level of the corresponding super reach performance by the number of stars. As shown in Figure 11-11(A), among the super reaches performed when the gaming state is normal, the expectation level suggestion display is not displayed for the low base weak super reach A and B reach effects, and the 3 stars for the expectation level suggestion display in the reach performance of strong base super reach A, 3.5 stars for the expectation level suggestion display for the reach performance of low base strong super reach B, and expectations for the reach performance of low base strong super reach C 4 stars are displayed in the degree suggestion display, and 4.5 stars are displayed in the expectation degree suggestion display in the reach performance of the strongest low base super reach. As shown in Figures 11-11 (B) and (C), 3 stars are displayed in the expectation level suggestion display in the reach performance of high base super reach A that is executed when the gaming state is time saving state A and variable probability state. 3.5 stars are displayed in the expectation level suggestion display for the reach performance of high base super reach B, and 4 stars are displayed in the expectation level suggestion display for the reach performance of high base super reach C. 4.5 stars are displayed in the expectation level suggestion display for D's reach performance.

The same number of stars will be displayed in the expectation level suggestion display for the super reach reach performance that is performed when the gaming state is normal and the super reach reach performance that is performed when the gaming state is variable. However, as shown in Figures 11-12 (A) and (B), even if the number of stars displayed in the expectation level suggestion display is the same, the suggested jackpot expectation level is not the same. If the number of stars displayed in the degree suggestion display is the same, the super reach performance that is performed when the gaming state is in a variable state is greater than the super reach performance that is performed when the gaming state is in the normal state. It is suggested that the reach performance of the reach has a higher jackpot expectation.

In addition, whether it is a super reach effect that is executed when the gaming state is normal or a super reach effect that is executed when the gaming state is variable, the expectation level suggestion is displayed. Each time the number of stars displayed increases by 0.5, the implied jackpot expectation increases, but as shown in Figures 11-12 (A) and (B), the super Also in the reach effect expectation level suggestion display, the more the number of stars increases, the greater the amount of increase in the suggested jackpot expectation level. Also, as shown in Figures 11-12 (A) and (B), when the number of stars displayed in the expectation level suggestion display increases from 3 to 3.5, the amount of increase in the jackpot expectation level is It is the same whether it is a super reach effect that is executed when the gaming state is normal or a super reach effect that is executed when the gaming state is variable, but the expectation level The amount of increase in the jackpot expectation when the number of stars displayed in the suggestion display increases from 3.5 to 4 and from 4 to 4.5 is when the gaming state is normal. The reach effect of the super reach executed when the gaming state is in a variable probability state is larger than the reach effect of the super reach.

Command C2XXH is a second pending memory number notification command that notifies the second special figure pending memory number in order to display the special figure pending memory number in a specifiable manner in the second pending memory display area 132SG005U or the like. The first pending storage number notification command is, for example, when the first starting opening winning designation command is sent based on the game ball passing (entering) the first starting winning opening and the first starting condition being satisfied. , is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12. The second pending memory number notification command is, for example, when the second starting opening winning designation command is sent based on the game ball passing (entering) the second starting winning opening and the second starting condition being satisfied. , is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12. In addition, the first pending memory number notification command and the second pending memory number notification command are used when either the first start condition or the second start condition is satisfied (when the number of pending memories decreases), the special figure game It may also be transmitted in response to the start of execution.

Instead of the first pending memory number notification command and the second pending memory number notification command, a total pending memory number notification command that notifies the total number of pending memories may be transmitted. That is, a total number of pending memories notification command may be used to notify an increase (or decrease) in the total number of pending memories.

The command 91XXH is a command for specifying the number of rescue time reductions at the time of recovery, and is an effect control command for converting the value of the rescue time reduction counter into hexadecimal and specifying it at the time of power restoration. For example, as shown in Figure 11-13 (C), the command for specifying the number of times saving time is Different EXT data is set depending on the digit (4th digit).

For example, as shown in Figure 11-13 (C), commands 9100H to 910FH are commands 1 command for specifying the number of times saving time saving during recovery that specifies the first digit of the value of the number of saving time saving times. It is. Commands 9110H to 911FH are 2 commands for specifying the number of rescue time reductions during recovery, which specify the second digit of the value of the number of rescue time reductions. Commands 9130H to 913FH are three commands for specifying the number of rescue time reductions during recovery, which specify the third digit of the value of the number of rescue time reductions. Commands 9140H to 914FH are four commands for specifying the number of times the rescue time is shortened during recovery, which specifies the fourth digit of the value of the number of times the rescue time is shortened.

The command 94XXH is a rescue time reduction number designation command, and is an effect control command that designates the remaining variable display number (126 times or less) until the rescue time is shortened. In the rescue time reduction number designation command, for example, as shown in Figure 11-13 (D), different EXT data is set depending on the remaining variable display number (126 times or less) until the rescue time is shortened. .

For example, as shown in FIG. 11-13(D), the command 9400H is a rescue time reduction number A designation command that specifies that the rescue time reduction has been reached. Command 9401H is a relief time reduction number B designation command that specifies that there are 1 to 125 times remaining until relief time reduction is reached.

In the rescue time reduction number 2 designation command, for example, a value corresponding to the remaining variable display number (number of times in units of 100) until the rescue time is shortened is set in the EXT data of the rescue time reduction number 2 designation command. For example, if the remaining number of variable display times until the relief time is shortened is 100, command 9601H is sent as the relief time reduction number 2 designation command, and if the remaining number of variable display times is 700, the relief Command 9607H is transmitted as a time saving number 1 designation command. Command 9F00 (H) is a customer waiting demonstration display designation command that specifies a customer waiting demonstration.

[Game control data holding area]
The RAM 102 included in the game control microcomputer 100 shown in FIG. 11-2 may be a backup RAM in which part or all of it is backed up by a backup power source created on a predetermined power supply board. That is, even if the power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 1 is stopped, part or all of the contents of the RAM 102 will not be saved for a predetermined period (until the capacitor serving as the backup power source is discharged and the backup power source is no longer able to supply power). Ru. In particular, at least data corresponding to the game state, ie, the control state of the game control means (such as a special figure process flag) and data indicating the number of unpaid prize balls may be stored in the backup RAM. The data according to the control state of the game control means is data necessary for restoring the control state before the power outage, etc., based on the data, when the power is restored after a power outage, etc. occurs. Further, data corresponding to the control state and data indicating the number of unpaid prize balls are defined as data indicating the progress state of the game.

Such a RAM 102 is provided with a game control data holding area 131SG150 as shown in FIG. It is being The game control data holding area 131SG150 shown in FIG. 11-14 includes a first special symbol reservation storage section 131SG151A, a second special symbol reservation storage section 131SG151B, a regular symbol reservation storage section 131SG151C, a game control flag setting section 131SG152, It includes a game control timer setting section 131SG153, a game control counter setting section 131SG154, and a game control buffer setting section 131SG155.

The first special figure reservation storage unit 131SG151A stores special figures that have not yet started, although a game ball has passed (entered) the first starting prize opening formed by the winning ball device 6A and a starting prize (first starting prize) has occurred. Stores pending data of a figure game (a special figure game using the first special figure on the first special figure display device 4A). As an example, the first special figure reservation storage unit 131SG151A associates the winning order (game ball detection order) to the first starting prize opening with the reservation number, and sets the first starting condition for the passing (entering) of the game ball. The random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result, the random number MR2 for determining the jackpot type, the random number MR3 for determining the variation pattern type, and the random number MR3 for determining the variation pattern, which are extracted from the random number circuit 104 etc. by the CPU 103 based on the establishment of the Numerical data indicating the numerical value MR4 and the like are stored as pending data until the number of stored data reaches a predetermined upper limit (for example, "4"). In addition, the upper limit that can store pending data (pending memory) in the second special figure pending storage section 131SG151B is always 4 regardless of the gaming state. The pending data stored in the first special figure pending storage unit 131SG151A indicates that the execution of the special figure game using the first special figure is on hold, and the variable display result (special figure display) in this special figure game is suspended. This is pending information that makes it possible to determine whether or not there will be a jackpot based on the result).

The second special figure reservation storage unit 131SG151B indicates that although the game ball has passed (entered) the second starting prize opening formed by the variable winning ball device 6B and a starting prize (second starting prize) has occurred, it has not started yet. Stores pending data of a special figure game (a special figure game using the second special figure on the second special figure display device 4B). As an example, the second special figure reservation storage unit 131SG151B associates the winning order (game ball detection order) to the second starting prize opening with the reservation number, and sets the second starting condition for the passing (entering) of the game ball. The random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result, the random number MR2 for determining the jackpot type, the random number MR3 for determining the variation pattern type, and the random number MR3 for determining the variation pattern, which are extracted from the random number circuit 104 etc. by the CPU 103 based on the establishment of the Numerical data indicating the numerical value MR4 is stored as pending data until the number reaches a predetermined upper limit (for example, "4"). In addition, the upper limit that can store pending data (pending memory) in the second special figure pending storage section 131SG151B is always 4 regardless of the gaming state. The pending data stored in the second special figure pending storage unit 131SG151B indicates that the execution of the special figure game using the second special figure is on hold, and the variable display result (special figure display) in this special figure game is suspended. This is pending information that makes it possible to determine whether or not there will be a jackpot based on the result).

In other words, in this embodiment, a maximum of four reservation memories can be stored as the first special symbol reservation memory (retention memory that can be stored in the first special symbol reservation storage section 131SG151A), and a maximum of four reservation memories can be stored as the second special symbol reservation memory ( A maximum of four pending memories can be stored in the second special figure pending storage section 131SG151B.

In addition, there is hold information (first hold information) based on the establishment of the first starting condition due to the game ball passing (entering) the first starting prize opening, and holding information (first holding information) based on the establishment of the first starting condition due to the gaming ball passing (entering) the second starting winning opening. The reservation information (second reservation information) based on the establishment of the second starting winning may be stored in a common reservation storage unit in association with the reservation number. In this case, starting hole data indicating whether the game ball passed through (entered) the first starting winning hole or the second starting winning hole may be included in the hold information and stored in association with the holding number. .

In addition, when executing the variable display, the CPU 103 first inputs random numbers MR1 to MR4 from the second special symbol reservation storage section 131SG151B if the second special symbol reservation memory exists in the special symbol normal processing (see FIG. 6). After reading out, the storage contents of the second special figure reservation storage section 131SG151B are shifted. In other words, when the random numbers MR1 to MR4 are stored as the reservation memory of reservation number 1 in the second special figure reservation storage section 131SG151B, the CPU 103 stores the random numbers MR1 to MR4 stored as the reservation memory of reservation number 1 in the second special figure reservation storage section 131SG151B. At the same time as reading out the values of MR1 to random number MR4, the pending memory of the pending number 1 is erased, and the pending memory stored as the pending memory of pending number 2 is used as the pending memory of pending number 1 and the pending memory of pending number 3. The stored suspension memory is re-stored as suspension memory of suspension number 2, and the suspension memory stored as suspension memory of suspension number 4 is re-stored as suspension memory of suspension number 3.

Moreover, CPU103 determines whether the 1st special figure reservation memory exists, when the reservation memory is not memorize|stored in the 2nd special figure reservation memory|storage part 131SG151B. When the first special figure reservation memory exists, after reading the random numbers MR1 to MR4 from the first special figure reservation storage section 131SG151A, the storage contents of the first special figure reservation storage section 131SG151A are shifted. In other words, when the random numbers MR1 to MR4 are stored as the reservation memory of reservation number 1 in the first special figure reservation storage section 131SG151A, the CPU 103 stores the random numbers MR1 to MR4 stored as the reservation memory of reservation number 1 in the first special figure reservation storage section 131SG151A. At the same time as reading out the values of MR1 to random number MR4, the pending memory of the pending number 1 is erased, and the pending memory stored as the pending memory of pending number 2 is used as the pending memory of pending number 1 and the pending memory of pending number 3. The stored suspension memory is re-stored as suspension memory of suspension number 2, and the suspension memory stored as suspension memory of suspension number 4 is re-stored as suspension memory of suspension number 3.

Then, the CPU 103 determines the variable display result (if the variable display result is a jackpot, the random number value After executing the judgment of the jackpot type based on MR2), in the variation pattern judgment process (see Figure 6), different variation patterns are determined depending on the gaming state, the variable display result, and the number of reserved memories of the special symbol for which variable display is executed. After determining the type of variation pattern using the type determination table, the variation pattern is further determined using a different variation pattern determination table depending on the determined type of variation pattern, gaming status, number of pending memories, etc.

That is, in the present embodiment, the CPU 103 can determine the variation pattern in the variation pattern setting process according to the number of pending memories obtained by subtracting 1 from the pending memory immediately before variable display.

The normal pattern holding storage section 131SG151C stores the holding information of the normal pattern game which has not been started by the normal symbol display 20 even though the game ball has been detected by the gate switch 21. For example, the general figure reservation storage unit 131SG151C associates the game balls with the reservation numbers in the order in which they are detected by the gate switch 21, and stores the general figure display results extracted from the random number circuit 104 etc. by the CPU 103 based on the passage of the game balls. Numerical data indicating the random number MR4 for determination is stored as pending data until the number reaches a predetermined upper limit (for example, "4").

The game control flag setting section 131SG152 is provided with a plurality of types of flags whose states can be updated according to the progress of the game in the pachinko game machine 1 and the like. For example, the game control flag setting unit 131SG152 stores data indicating the value of the flag and data indicating the on state or off state for each of the plurality of types of flags.

The game control timer setting section 131SG153 is provided with various timers used to control the progress of the game in the pachinko game machine 1. For example, the game control timer setting section 131SG153 stores data indicating timer values for each of a plurality of types of timers.

The game control counter setting section 131SG154 is provided with a plurality of types of counters for counting count values used to control the progress of the game in the pachinko game machine 1. For example, the game control counter setting section 131SG154 stores data indicating count values for each of a plurality of types of counters. Here, the game control counter setting section 131SG154 may be provided with a random counter for counting part or all of the gaming random numbers so that the CPU 103 can update them by software.

In the random counter of the game control counter setting unit 131SG154, random numbers not generated by the random number circuit 104, for example, numerical data indicating random numbers MR1 to MR6 are stored as random count values, and according to the execution of software by the CPU 103, Numerical data indicating each random value is updated regularly or irregularly. The software executed by the CPU 103 to update the random count value may be for updating the random count value separately from the numerical data update operation in the random number circuit 104, or may be for updating the random count value separately from the numerical data update operation in the random number circuit 104, or may be for updating the random count value separately from the numerical data update operation in the random number circuit 104. The random count value may be updated by performing predetermined processing such as scrambling processing or arithmetic processing on all or part of the numerical data obtained.

The game control buffer setting section 131SG155 is provided with various buffers that temporarily store data used to control the progress of the game in the pachinko game machine 1. For example, the game control buffer setting unit 131SG155 stores data indicating buffer values in each of a plurality of types of buffers.

The production control flag setting section 131SG191 includes multiple types of flags whose states can be updated according to production operation states such as the display state of production images on the screen of the image display device 5, production control commands transmitted from the main board 11, etc. A flag is set. For example, the production control flag setting unit 131SG191 stores data indicating the value of the flag and data indicating the on state or off state for each of the plurality of types of flags.

The performance control timer setting unit 131SG192 is provided with a plurality of types of timers used to control the progress of various performance operations, such as display operations of performance images on the screen of the image display device 5, for example. For example, the performance control timer setting section 131SG192 stores data indicating timer values for each of multiple types of timers.

The performance control counter setting section 131SG193 is provided with a plurality of types of counters used to control the progress of various performance operations. For example, the production control counter setting section 131SG193 stores data indicating count values for each of a plurality of types of counters.

The performance control buffer setting unit 131SG194 is provided with various buffers that temporarily store data used to control the progress of various performance operations. For example, the production control buffer setting unit 131SG194 stores data indicating buffer values in each of a plurality of types of buffers.

In this embodiment, data constituting the starting winning reception command buffer 131SG194A as shown in FIG. 11-15(B) is stored in a predetermined area of the performance control buffer setting section 131SG194. The start winning command buffer 131SG194A has a storage area (buffer numbers "1-1" to "1-4") corresponding to the maximum value (for example, "4") of the total number of reserved memories of the first special symbol reserved memory. A corresponding area) is provided. In addition, the start winning reception command buffer 131SG194A has a storage area (buffer numbers "2-1" to "2-4") corresponding to the maximum value (for example, "4") of the total number of reserved memories of the second special symbol reserved memory. ”) is provided. When there is a starting prize in the first starting winning opening or the second starting winning opening, the starting opening winning designation command (first starting opening winning designation command or second starting opening winning designation command), symbol designation command, variable category designation A set of four commands, a command and a pending storage number notification command (a first pending storage number notification command or a second pending storage number notification command), is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12. The storage area corresponding to the first special figure pending memory and the storage area corresponding to the second special figure pending memory in the starting winning reception command buffer 131SG194A are an area for storing these starting opening winning designation commands and a storage area for storing the symbol designation commands. The storage area, the area for storing the variable category designation command, the area for storing the pending memory number notification command, and the area for storing the pending display flag are associated with the pending memory number, and the first special figure pending memory is created. A storage area (entry) is secured for separately storing the special figure and the second special figure reservation memory.

The storage contents of these storage areas (entries) are changed when the start condition is met and the variable display of the highest pending storage (buffer number "1-1" or buffer number "2-1") starts. The content (data) of the pending memory for which the start condition has been met is copied to the active display buffer 131SG194B in FIG. will be deleted. Then, the storage contents of storage areas lower than the deleted reserved storage are shifted one by one to the storage areas higher up.

As described above, when the variable display of the pending memory (buffer number "1-1" or "2-1") is started, the active display buffer 131SG194B stores the content of the pending memory (for which the start condition is satisfied). data) is copied, so as shown in FIG. 11-15(C), a storage area similar to the starting winning reception command buffer 131SG194A is provided. In other words, there is an area for storing the starting opening winning designation command, an area for storing the symbol designation command, an area for storing the variable category command, an area for storing the pending storage number notification command, and an area for storing the pending display flag. , is provided.

In this embodiment, if a starting winning occurs when the variable display is not executed and there is no pending memory, a starting winning prize designation command, a symbol designation command, a variable category command, a pending memory based on the starting winning, etc. The number notification command is stored in the active display buffer 131SG194B without passing through the reception command buffer 131SG194A at the time of starting winning. Incidentally, the suspension display flag is set by the performance control CPU 120 executing a prefetch notice setting process (S161) to be described later.

The storage contents of the active display buffer 131SG194B are cleared (deleted) in the special figure waiting process executed when the variable display ends.

Note that the pending display flag is a flag indicating a display mode of an active display corresponding to a pending display or a variable display in progress. Although the details will be described later, in this embodiment, it is possible to suggest the ratio of being controlled to the jackpot gaming state by the display mode of these pending display and active display (value of the pending display flag).

[Start winning determination process]
FIG. 11-16 is a flowchart showing the starting winning determination process (S101) shown in FIG. In the starting winning determination process, the CPU 103 first turns on the first starting opening switch 22A based on the detection signal from the first starting opening switch 22A provided corresponding to the first starting winning opening formed by the winning ball device 6A. It is determined whether or not (131SGS101). At this time, if the first starting port switch 22A is on (131SGS101; Y), the number of reserved first special symbols, which is the number of reserved memories of the special symbol game using the first special symbol, is set to the predetermined upper limit ( For example, it is determined whether the upper limit storage number is "4" (131SGS102). The CPU 103 should just be able to specify the first special symbol pending memory number by reading the first pending memory number count value which is the stored value of the first pending memory counter provided in the game control counter setting section 131SG154, for example. When the first special figure pending storage number is not the upper limit value in 131SGS102 (131SGS102;N), for example, the storage value of the starting opening buffer provided in the game control buffer setting section 131SG155 is set to "1" (131SGS103) .

When the first starting port switch 22A is off in 131SGS101 (131SGS101; N), or when the number of first special symbol reservation memories has reached the upper limit value in 131SGS102 (131SGS102; Y), the variable winning ball device 6B Based on the detection signal from the second starting port switch 22B provided corresponding to the second starting winning port formed by the player, it is determined whether or not the second starting port switch 22B is on (131SGS104). At this time, if the second starting port switch 22B is on (131SGS104; Y), the number of second special symbols pending memory, which is the number of pending memories of the special symbol game using the second special symbol, is set to the predetermined upper limit ( For example, it is determined whether the upper limit storage number is "4" (131SGS105). For example, the CPU 103 may specify the second special symbol pending storage number by reading the second pending storage number count value which is the stored value of the second pending storage number counter provided in the game control counter setting section 131SG154. When the second special figure pending memory number is not the upper limit value in 131SGS105 (131SGS105; N), for example, the storage value of the starting opening buffer provided in the game control buffer setting section 131SG155 is set to "2" (131SGS106) .

After executing either of the processes of 131SGS103 and 131SGS106, the number of special figure reservations stored according to the starting opening buffer value, which is the storage value of the starting opening buffer, is updated by adding 1 (131SGS107). For example, when the starting port buffer value is "1", the first pending storage number count value is incremented by 1, while when the starting port buffer value is "2", the second pending storage number count value is added by 1. In this way, the first pending memory number count value is 1 when the game ball passes (enters) the first starting prize opening and the first starting condition corresponding to the special pattern game using the first special pattern is established. Updated to increase. In addition, the second pending memory number count value is 1 when the game ball passes (enters) the second starting prize opening and the second starting condition corresponding to the special pattern game using the second special pattern is established. Updated to increase. At this time, the total number of pending memories is also updated to add 1 (131SGS108). For example, the total pending storage number count value, which is the stored value of the total pending storage number counter provided in the game control counter setting section 131SG154, may be updated by adding one.

After executing the process of 131SGS108, the CPU 103 selects the random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result and the random number MR1 for determining the winning type from among the numerical data updated by the random number circuit 104 and the random counter of the game control counter setting section 131SG154. 131SGS109). Numerical data indicating each random value extracted in this way and the start opening buffer value are stored by being set as reservation information at the head of the free entry in the special figure reservation storage section (131SGS110).

The numerical data indicating the random number MR1 for determining the special symbol display result and the random number MR2 for determining the hit type determines whether or not the variable display result of the special symbol or decorative symbol is a “big hit” or “small hit”. is used to determine the jackpot type/small win type when the variable display result is a "big hit" or "small win". The random number value MR3 for determining the type of variation pattern and the random number value MR4 for determining the variation pattern are used to determine a variation pattern including a variable display time of a special symbol or a decorative symbol. By executing the process of 131SGS109, the CPU 103 extracts numerical data indicating all of the random numbers used for determining the variable display mode including the variable display results and variable display time of special symbols and decorative symbols.

Following the processing of 131SGS110, transmission settings for a starting slot winning designation command according to the starting slot buffer value are performed (131SGS111). For example, when the starting opening buffer value is "1", the production control board Settings are made to send the first starting opening winning designation command to No. 12. On the other hand, when the starting opening buffer value is "2", by storing the storage address of the second starting opening winning designation command table in the ROM 101 in the buffer area of the sending command buffer, Make settings for transmitting the second starting opening winning designation command. The starting opening winning designation command set in this way is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12 by, for example, executing the command control process of S27 shown in FIG. 4 after the special symbol process process is completed. be done.

Following the processing of 131SGS111, the CPU 103 executes a winning random value determination process (131SGS112). After that, for example, by storing the storage address of the pending memory number notification command table in the ROM 101 in the buffer area specified by the sending command pointer in the sending command buffer, a pending storage number notification command is sent to the production control board 12. (131SGS113). The reserved storage number notification command set in this way is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12 by, for example, executing the command control process of S27 shown in FIG. 4 after the special symbol process process is completed. be done.

After executing the process of 131SGS113, it is determined whether the starting port buffer value is "1" (131SGS114). At this time, if the starting port buffer value is "1" (Y in 131SGS114), the starting port buffer is cleared, its stored value is initialized to "0" (131SGS115), and the process proceeds to 2390SGS104. On the other hand, when the starting opening buffer value is "2" (N at 131SGS114), the starting opening buffer is cleared and its stored value is initialized to "0" (131SGS116), and then the starting winning process is executed. finish. Thereby, even when both the first starting port switch 22A and the second starting port switch 22B detect valid starting winnings of game balls at the same time, processing based on detection of both effective starting winnings can be surely completed.

[Random numerical value judgment process when winning a prize]
FIG. 11-17(A) is a flowchart showing an example of the process executed by the 131SGS 112 in FIG. 11-17 as the winning random value determination process. In this embodiment, when the variable display of special symbols and decorative symbols is started, the special symbol normal processing (FIG. 6) is performed to set the special symbol display result (variable display result of the special symbol) as a "jackpot" and enter the jackpot game state. A determination is made as to whether or not to control. Further, in the variation pattern setting process (FIG. 6), a variation pattern that specifically defines the variable display mode of the decorative pattern is determined. On the other hand, apart from these determinations, the CPU 103 executes the winning time random numerical value determination process of S112 at the timing when the game ball is detected at the starting winning hole (the first starting winning hole or the second starting winning hole). Accordingly, it is determined whether or not it is determined that the jackpot symbol is derived and displayed as the special symbol display result. As a result, before the variable display of special symbols and decorative symbols based on the detection of the game ball that has entered the starting prize opening starts, that is, before it is determined whether or not to win the jackpot at the start of the variable display. Beforehand, it is determined that the special figure display result will be a "jackpot", and based on this determination result, the performance control CPU 120 etc. will perform a pre-read notice such as a panel display performance or a pending notice performance, as will be described later. will be executed.

In the winning random value determination process shown in FIG. 11-17, the CPU 103 first specifies the gaming state (step 131SGS121) and selects the display result determination table shown in FIG. 11-3(B) (step 131SGS122). . Then, in step 131SGS123a, the CPU 103 compares the random number MR1 extracted in step 131SGS109 with the display result determination table, and determines whether the random number MR1 is within the jackpot determination range.

If the random number value MR1 is outside the jackpot determination range, that is, if the variable display result is a loss, a symbol designation command transmission setting is made in accordance with the loss (step 131SGS126a). Then, it is determined whether the gaming state is the normal state (step 131SGS126b). If the gaming state is the normal state, select the loss variation pattern type determination table A shown in FIG. 11-7(A) and proceed to step 131SGS131 (step 131SGS126c).

If the gaming state is not the normal state, it is further determined whether the gaming state is the time saving state B (step 131SGS126d). If the gaming state is not the time-saving state B, that is, the gaming state is the time-saving state A or the variable probability state, select the loss variation pattern type determination table B shown in FIG. 11-7(B) and proceed to step 131SGS131 ( In step 131SGS126e), if the gaming state is time saving state B, select the losing variation pattern type determination table C shown in FIG. 11-7(C) and proceed to step 131SGS131 (step 131SGS126f).

Further, in step 131SGS123a, if the random number value MR1 is within the jackpot determination value range, the CPU 103 performs settings for transmitting a symbol designation command according to the jackpot (step 131SGS129). Then, it is determined whether the gaming state is the normal state (step 131SGS130a). When the gaming state is the normal state, the jackpot fluctuation pattern type determination table A shown in Figure 11-7 (D) is shown, and when the gaming state is the time saving state A or the variable probability state, the table is shown in Figure 11-7 (E). If the jackpot variation pattern type determination table B shown in FIG. , step 131SGS130d, step 131SGS130e).

In step 131SGS131, the CPU 103 compares the selected variation pattern type determination table with the random number value MR3 extracted in step 131SGS109, and determines the variation category from non-reach, super reach, and other (normal reach). For example, if the random number MR3 is a variation pattern type of non-reach, the variation category is determined to be non-reach, and if the random number MR3 is a variation pattern type of normal reach, the variation category is determined to be other (normal reach), and the variation category is determined to be other (normal reach). Numerical MR3 is low base weak super reach A/B, low base strong super reach A, low base strong super reach B, low base strong super reach C, low base strongest super reach, high base super reach A, high base super reach B , high base super reach C, or high base super reach D, the fluctuation category may be determined to be super reach. Then, transmission settings are made for a fluctuation category designation command (one of those shown in FIGS. 11-17(B)) according to the determination result, and the winning random value determination process is ended (step 131SGS132).

Note that the command set for transmission is transmitted to the production control board 12 by the CPU 103 executing the command control process shown in FIG.

[Game control main processing]
FIG. 11-18 is a flowchart showing the game control main processing in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the processing in steps S1 to S7, the processing in steps S8 to S9, and the processing in steps S10 to S12 are the same as those shown in FIG.

In this embodiment, when the production control command instructing recovery from a power outage is transmitted in step S7, the CPU 103 checks the value of the relief time reduction counter for counting the remaining number of variable displays until the relief time is shortened. Then, a value obtained by converting the current value of the rescue time reduction number counter into hexadecimal is set, and control is performed to send a command for specifying the number of rescue time reduction times at the time of recovery to the effect control CPU 120 (step 131SGS0013).

Next, the CPU 103 performs control to set a value corresponding to the current value of the rescue time reduction number counter and send a rescue time reduction number designation command to the performance control CPU 120 (step 131SGS0014). For example, when the current value of the relief time reduction number counter is 1 to 125, the CPU 103 performs control to transmit command 9401H as the relief time reduction number designation command. Therefore, in this embodiment, if the RAM clearing process is not executed when the gaming machine is powered on and the recovery process is executed, a command to specify the number of rescue time reductions is sent, and the remaining variable number until the current rescue time reduction is You will be notified of the number of views.

Note that although this embodiment shows a case where, at the time of restoration from a power outage, a command for specifying the number of times to shorten rescue time and a command for specifying the number of times to shorten rescue time are transmitted in addition to the command at the time of recovery, but this is limited to such an embodiment. do not have. For example, the configuration may be such that the EXT data of the recovery command (for example, power-on designation command) transmitted in step S7 is set with a value corresponding to the remaining number of times until the rescue time is shortened and then transmitted. .

Further, when RAM clear is requested in step S3, if there is no backup data in step S4, or if there is an abnormality in the backup RAM in step S5, the area of the rescue time reduction counter is also cleared in the initialization process of step S8. Execute clear processing on the included area.

Further, when the production control command instructing initialization is transmitted in step S9, the CPU 103 sets the relief time reduction counter to "900" (step 131SGS0015). Therefore, in this embodiment, when the RAM clearing process is executed when the gaming machine is powered on, "900" is set in the rescue time reduction counter. That is, in this embodiment, after the RAM clearing process is executed when the power is turned on to the gaming machine, if a jackpot does not occur even after executing the variable display 900 times, the relief time is shortened and the game enters the time saving state B. It will be controlled. In addition, in this embodiment, since the effect control command instructing initialization transmitted in step S9 corresponds to the initial value ("900") set in the rescue time reduction counter, the CPU 103 performs initialization. It is also possible to specify the initial value to be set in the relief time reduction counter based on the transmission of the production control command instructing.

Next, the CPU 103 checks the value of the rescue time reduction counter (in this embodiment, it is "900"), sets the current value of the rescue time reduction counter to a hexadecimal number, and performs the recovery at the time of recovery. Control is performed to transmit a time saving number designation command to the production control CPU 120 (step 131SGS0016).

In this way, the setting of the relief time reduction number counter is executed before the timer interrupt processing, which is the game progress process, is executed, so that the variable display does not start before the relief time reduction number counter is set. Therefore, it is possible to reliably manage the number of times until relief time is shortened.

In this embodiment, when the RAM clearing process is executed when the power is turned on to the gaming machine, the rescue time reduction counter is set to "900" for initial setting. However, the configuration may be such that the initial setting of the rescue time reduction counter is not performed when the RAM clearing process is executed. With such a configuration, the game can be started from the continuation of the value of the previous day's relief time reduction counter, so the investment amount until the relief time is shortened can be reduced, and the configuration is such that it is not disadvantageous to the player. be able to.

In addition, in the case of the above configuration, the configuration is such that the initial setting of the rescue time reduction counter is not performed only when ON of the clear switch is detected (step S3; Yes) and RAM clear processing is executed. When an abnormality is detected (steps S4, S5; No) and the RAM clearing process is executed, the rescue time saving counter may be initialized.

[Time saving flag, fixed variable flag]
In this embodiment, the time saving flag can be set when any of the conditions for being controlled to be in the time saving state is satisfied. The time saving flag includes a time saving flag A and a time saving flag B. Note that in the following description, erasing (or clearing) a flag may be referred to as resetting the flag.

The time-saving flag A is set when the time-saving state A is controlled via jackpot A, jackpot B, and jackpot C. This time-saving flag A is set when the jackpot game state of jackpot A ends, and when the time-saving state A ends (the timing when a jackpot occurs during the time-saving state A, the 110 time-saving control ends and the normal state (timing controlled by).

The time saving flag B is set when the time saving state B is controlled via the relief time saving. This time saving flag B is set when 900 variable displays are executed after the RAM is cleared and the display result does not become a jackpot symbol, or when the display result does not become a jackpot symbol after the end of the jackpot game state in a low probability state. is set when is executed, and is cleared when time saving state B ends (timing when a jackpot occurs during time saving state B, timing when 1100 time saving controls are completed and control returns to normal state, etc.) .

The variable probability flag is set when the variable probability state is controlled. In this embodiment, when a V prize is won in the first round of a jackpot game, when the jackpot game ends, a probability change flag is set as the game state is controlled to a probability change state. This probability variation flag is erased at the timing when the probability variation state ends (timing when a jackpot occurs during the probability variation state, timing when the 110th probability variation control is executed and control returns to the normal state, etc.). For example, if the determination is YES in step 131SGS69A of FIG. 11-20, which will be described later, the variable probability flag is erased based on the fact that this is the 110th time since the variable display has been controlled to the variable probability state.

[Special design normal processing]
11-19 and FIG. 11-20 are flowcharts showing special symbol normal processing (step S110) in the special symbol process processing. In the special symbol normal processing, the CPU 103 confirms the value of the total pending storage number (step 131SGS51). Specifically, the count value of the total pending storage number counter for counting the total number of the first pending storage number and the second pending storage number is checked. If the total number of pending memories is not 0, the CPU 103 checks whether the second number of pending memories is 0 (step 131SGS52). Specifically, it is checked whether the value of the second pending storage counter for counting the second pending storage number is 0 or not. If the second pending storage number is not 0, the CPU 103 uses the special symbol pointer (a flag indicating whether the special symbol process is being performed for the first special symbol or the second special symbol) Data indicating "second" is set in (step 131SGS53). If the second pending memory number is 0 (that is, if only the first pending memory number is accumulated), the CPU 103 sets data indicating "first" in the special symbol pointer (step 131SGS54).

In this embodiment, by executing the processing of steps 131SGS52 to S54, the variable display of the second special symbol is executed with priority over the variable display of the first special symbol. In other words, the second start condition for starting the variable display of the second special symbol is controlled to be satisfied in priority to the first start condition for starting the variable display of the first special symbol.

Note that the mode is not limited to the embodiment shown in this embodiment, and for example, the variable display of the first special symbol and the variable display of the second special symbol may be executed in the order in which the game ball wins in the first starting winning hole and the second starting winning hole. It may be configured to do so.

Next, in the RAM 102, the CPU 103 reads out each random number value stored in the storage area corresponding to the pending storage number=1 indicated by the special symbol pointer, and stores it in the random number buffer area of the RAM 102 (step 131SGS55). Specifically, when the special symbol pointer indicates "first", the CPU 103 stores each random number stored in the storage area corresponding to the first pending memory number = 1 in the first pending memory number buffer. The numerical value is read and stored in the random number buffer area of the RAM 102. Further, when the special symbol pointer indicates "second", the CPU 103 reads each random value stored in the storage area corresponding to the second pending memory number = 1 in the second pending memory number buffer. and stores it in the random number buffer area of the RAM 102.

Then, the CPU 103 subtracts 1 from the count value of the pending storage number counter indicated by the special symbol pointer, and shifts the contents of each storage area (step 131SGS56). Specifically, when the special symbol pointer indicates "first", the CPU 103 subtracts 1 from the count value of the first pending memory number counter, and stores each storage area in the first pending memory number buffer. Shift the contents of . Further, when the special symbol pointer indicates "second", the count value of the second pending memory number counter is subtracted by 1, and the contents of each storage area in the second pending memory number buffer are shifted.

That is, when the special symbol pointer indicates "first", the CPU 103 saves the storage area corresponding to the first pending memory number = n (n = 2, 3, 4) in the first pending memory number buffer of the RAM 102. Each random value stored in is stored in a storage area corresponding to the first pending storage number=n-1. In addition, when the special symbol pointer indicates "second", it is stored in the storage area corresponding to the second pending memory number = n (n = 2, 3, 4) in the second pending memory number buffer of the RAM 102. Each random value is stored in a storage area corresponding to the second pending storage number=n-1.

Therefore, the order in which each random value stored in each storage area corresponding to each first pending memory number (or each second pending memory number) is extracted is always based on the first pending memory number (or each second pending memory number). The second pending storage number) is arranged to match the order of 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Then, the CPU 103 reduces the value of the total number of pending memories by one. That is, the count value of the total pending storage number counter is subtracted by 1 (step 131SGS57). Note that the CPU 103 stores the value of the total pending storage number counter before the count value is subtracted by 1 in a predetermined area of the RAM 102.

Next, the CPU 103 reads the random number for hit determination from the random number buffer area (step 131SGS61), and executes the jackpot determination module (step 131SGS62). In this case, the CPU 103 reads out the random numbers for winning determination extracted in the starting winning determination process (step S101) and stored in the first pending storage buffer and the second pending storage buffer in advance, and performs the jackpot determination. The jackpot determination module is a program that compares a predetermined jackpot determination value and a random number for hit determination, and executes a process of determining a jackpot when they match. In other words, it is a program that executes a jackpot determination process. In this case, if the variable probability flag indicating the variable probability state is not set (if the probability variable state is low), the CPU 103 performs jackpot determination using the low probability jackpot determination value. Further, if the probability variation flag is set (if the probability is high), the CPU 103 performs jackpot determination using the high probability jackpot determination value. When the value of the random number for hit determination matches any jackpot determination value, the CPU 103 determines that the special symbol is a jackpot.

If it is determined to be a jackpot (Step 131SGS63; Yes), the CPU 103 sets a jackpot flag indicating that it is a jackpot (Step 131SGS64). The type (jackpot A, jackpot B, jackpot C) corresponding to the value that matches the random number value is determined as the jackpot type (step 131SGS65). In this case, the CPU 103 reads out the random numbers for type determination extracted in the starting winning determination process (step S101) and stored in the first pending storage buffer and the second pending storage buffer in advance, and determines the jackpot type. Then, the process moves to step 131SGS70. On the other hand, if it is not determined to be a jackpot (step 131SGS63; No), the process moves to step 131SGS66.

In this embodiment, by performing special symbol normal processing, the rescue time saving condition (by subtracting the value of the rescue time shortening counter to control the rescue time shortening regardless of the variable display result (jackpot, miss) is set to "0". The configuration is such that it is possible for this to occur. In this embodiment, the time-saving state A is established based on the fact that the jackpot A has been reached, and the next jackpot has not occurred even after the variable display has finished a predetermined number of times (in this embodiment, 900 times). Although the time saving state B is controlled, it is assumed that the variable display result of the variable display in which the rescue time saving condition is satisfied becomes a jackpot. Therefore, when the variable display result of the variable display in which the relief time saving condition is satisfied becomes a jackpot, the control is performed to the time saving state A based on the jackpot.

Next, the CPU 103 checks whether the value of the time saving number counter for counting the number of executions of variable display during the time saving state is 0 (step 131SGS66). If the value of the time saving number counter is not 0, the CPU 103 subtracts 1 from the value of the time saving number counter (step 131SGS67), and checks whether the value of the time saving number of times counter after the subtraction is 0 (step 131SGS68). ). If the value of the time saving number counter after the subtraction is 0, the CPU 103 sets a time saving end flag indicating that the time saving state is ended at the end of the variable display (step 131SGS69).

Note that in this embodiment, steps 131SGS66 to 131SGSS69 are executed to perform subtraction processing of the time saving number counter before the counting process of the number of variable display times until relief time saving is performed after step 131SGS71. It is not limited to the processing mode. For example, the process of subtracting the time saving number counter may be performed after the process of counting the number of variable displays until the time saving time reduction after step 131SGS71 is executed. In this case, for example, if the variable display is a relief time reduction, if the subtraction process is executed after setting the time reduction counter to "110" (see step 131 SGS172), the value of the time reduction counter will increase by 1. Since the value is subtracted, in a variable display that shortens the rescue time, the value of the time saving counter may be incremented by 1 again after the subtraction process. Alternatively, the time reduction counter may be configured to be set to "111" which is one more than the number of time reduction counters.

Next, the CPU 103 checks whether the probability variation flag is set (step 131SGS69A). If the probability variation flag is set (that is, if the probability variation state is present), the process moves to step 131SGS84. In this embodiment, when the process of step 131SGS69A is executed and the game is in a variable probability state, the processes after step 131SGS70 (particularly the process of step 131SGSS71) are not performed, so when the gaming state is in a variable probability state, Even if the variable display is executed during extreme battle rush (in this embodiment), the value of the rescue time reduction counter is not decremented. If the probability variation flag is not set (that is, if the state is non-probability variation), the process moves to step 131SGSS70.

In this embodiment, when the probability change flag is set, the process moves to step 131SGS84 without executing the processes from step 131SGSS70. If it is set, the process moves to step 131SGSS70, but the process of step 131SGSS71 may not be executed. That is, although the value of the rescue time reduction counter is not updated, a rescue time reduction number designation command or a rescue time reduction number 2 designation command corresponding to the value of the rescue time reduction number counter that has not been updated may be transmitted.

Next, the CPU 103 determines whether the value of the relief time reduction counter is 0 (step 131SGS70; Yes). If the value of the relief time reduction counter is 0 (step 131SGS70; Yes), the process moves to step 131SGS84. If the value of the rescue time saving number counter is 0 at this point, it means that the timing after the time saving state (time saving state B) has already been controlled via the rescue time saving (time saving state B) or the time saving state B This is the timing when the control is returned to the normal state after 1100 fluctuations), and the jackpot that is the trigger for setting the relief time reduction number counter to 900 has not occurred. Further, if the value of the relief time reduction number counter is not 0 (step 131SGS70; No), the value of the relief time reduction number counter is subtracted by 1 (step 131SGS71). In addition, in this embodiment, by executing the process of step 131SGS71, it does not matter whether the variable display of the first special symbol or the variable display of the second special symbol is executed. The value of the relief time reduction counter is uniformly updated.

Next, the CPU 103 checks whether the value of the relief time reduction number counter after the subtraction is 127 or more (step 131SGS72). If the value of the relief time reduction number counter after the subtraction is 126 or less (step 131SGS72; No), the CPU 103 sets a value corresponding to the value of the relief time reduction number counter in the EXT data and issues a relief time reduction number designation command. Control is performed to transmit data to the control CPU 120 (step 131SGS73). For example, when the value of the relief time reduction number counter is 1, the CPU 103 performs control to transmit a command 9401H as a relief time reduction number designation command. Further, when the value of the relief time reduction number counter is 126, the CPU 103 performs control to transmit a command 947EH as a relief time reduction number designation command.

Next, the CPU 103 checks whether the value of the relief time reduction number counter after the subtraction is 0 (step 131SGS74). If the value of the relief time reduction counter after the subtraction is not 0, the process moves to step 131SGS84. If the value of the relief time reduction number counter after the subtraction is 0, the CPU 103 sets a relief time reduction determination flag indicating that control is to be made to the time reduction state B at the end of the variation based on the occurrence of relief time reduction (step 131SGS75). ). Then, the process moves to step 131SGS84.

On the other hand, if the value of the rescue time reduction number counter after the subtraction is 127 or more (step 131SGS72; Yes), the CPU 103 uniformly sets 7FH as EXT data and sends command 957FH as the rescue time reduction number designation command for effect control. Control is performed to transmit to the CPU 120 (step 131SGS76). Next, the CPU 103 determines the remaining number of variable display times until the relief time is shortened in units of 100 times (in this embodiment, 100 times, 200 times, 300 times, 400 times, 500 times, 600 times, 700 times, or 800 times). ) (step 131SGS77). Note that whether or not the remaining number of variable display times until the relief time reduction is in units of 100 can be determined by checking the value of the relief time reduction number counter. If the remaining number of variable display times until relief time reduction is the number of times in units of 100, the CPU 103 sets a value corresponding to the value of the relief time reduction number counter in the EXT data, and issues a relief time reduction number 2 designation command. Control is performed to transmit data to the control CPU 120 (step 131SGS78). For example, when the value of the relief time reduction number counter is 100, the CPU 103 performs control to transmit command 9601H as the relief time reduction number 2 designation command. Further, when the value of the relief time reduction number counter is 800, the CPU 103 performs control to transmit a command 9608H as a relief time reduction number 2 designation command. Then, the process moves to step 131SGS84.

In this embodiment, the game control microcomputer 100 (specifically, the CPU 103) side counts the number of variable displays remaining until the rescue time reduction, and sends a rescue time reduction number designation command and a rescue time reduction number 2 designation command. Although this example is illustrated, it is not limited to such an embodiment. For example, the CPU 120 for effect control may be configured to count the number of variable display times remaining until the relief time is shortened, and execute an inciting effect or a countdown effect, which will be described later.

For example, if the relief time reduction count counter is set (set to "900") at the timing when the relief time reduction occurs, and the configuration is such that relief time reduction can occur continuously, only when the relief time reduction occurs the first time. The system is configured to send a command for specifying the number of times of saving time reduction and a command for specifying number of times of saving time reducing 2, and is configured not to send a command for specifying number of times of saving time saving and a command for specifying number of times of saving time saving 2 when saving time is shortened from the second time onwards. Also good.

Next, the CPU 103 determines the stop symbols of the special symbols according to the determination result of the jackpot type (step 131SGS84). In this case, for example, if it is decided to make jackpot A, the stopping symbol of the special symbol is determined to be "2", and if it is decided to be jackpot B, the stopping symbol of the special symbol is determined to be "3". If it is determined to be a jackpot C, the stopping symbol of the special symbol is determined to be "7", and if it is determined to be a loss, the stopping symbol of the special symbol is determined to be "-". Further, the CPU 103 stores the determined special symbol stopping symbol in the stopping symbol storage area provided in the RAM 102 (step 131SGS85).

Then, the CPU 103 updates the value of the special symbol process flag to a value corresponding to the variation pattern setting process (step S111) (step 131SGS86).

[Special symbol stop processing]
FIG. 11-21 is a flowchart showing the special symbol stop process (step S113) in the special symbol process process. In the special symbol stop processing, the CPU 103 first determines whether or not the symbol determination period timer is operating (step 131SGS131). If the symbol determination period timer is not operating, a stop symbol of the special symbol is derived and displayed (step 131SGS132). Then, it is determined whether the jackpot flag is set (step 131SGS133).

If the jackpot flag is set, clear the game status flags such as the time saving A flag, the time saving B flag, and the variable probability flag (step 131SGS134), clear the time saving number counter (step 131SGS135), and set the time saving flag according to the jackpot type. The transmission setting of the jackpot start designation command is performed and the process proceeds to step 131SGS147 (step 131SGS136). The jackpot start designation command that has been set for transmission is transmitted to the production control board 12 by the CPU 103 executing a command control process (see FIG. 5).

Further, if the jackpot flag is not set in step 131SGS133, the CPU 103 determines whether or not the relief time saving determination flag is set (step 131SGS140). If the relief time saving determination flag is not set, the process advances to step 131SGS147. If the relief time saving determination flag is set, the relief time saving determination flag is cleared and the time saving B flag indicating that the time saving state B is set is set (step 131SGS141, step 131SGS142). Further, the time saving number counter is set to 1100 corresponding to the time saving state B (relief time saving), and the transmission setting of the time saving state B designation command is performed (step 131SGS143, step 131SGS144). The time-saving state B designation command set for transmission is transmitted to the production control board 12 by the CPU 103 executing a command control process (see FIG. 5).

Moreover, while starting the lighting of the right-handed player lamp 131SG132, the transmission setting of the right-handed player LED lighting notification command is performed (step 131SGS145, step 131SGS146). In addition, the right hit LED lighting notification command set to be transmitted is transmitted to the production control board 12 by the CPU 103 executing a command control process (see FIG. 5).

Then, the symbol confirmation period timer is set to a value corresponding to 0.5 seconds, which is the symbol confirmation period, and a symbol confirmation designation command is set to be transmitted, and the process proceeds to step 131SGS149 (step 131SGS147, step 131SGS148). Note that the symbol confirmation designation command set for transmission is transmitted to the production control board 12 by the CPU 103 executing a command control process (see FIG. 5).

In step 131SGS149, the CPU 103 sets the transmission of a gaming state designation command according to the gaming state, and ends the special symbol stop processing. In addition, the game state designation command set to be transmitted is transmitted to the production control board 12 by the CPU 103 executing a command control process (see FIG. 5).

Then, if the symbol determination period timer is operating in step 131SGS131, the CPU 103 subtracts the value of the symbol determination period timer by 1 (step 131SGS150), and determines whether the symbol determination period timer has timed out ( Step 131SGS151). If the symbol confirmation period timer has not timed out, the special symbol stop processing is finished, and if the symbol confirmation engine timer has timed out, it is determined whether the derived stop symbol is a missed symbol or not (step 131SGS152) . If the derived stopping symbol is a losing symbol, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to a value corresponding to the special symbol normal processing, the special symbol halting process is ended (step 131SGS153), and the derived stopping symbol is a jackpot symbol. If so, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to a value corresponding to the jackpot release pre-processing, and the special symbol stop processing is ended (step 131SGS154).

[state transition]
Next, state transition in this embodiment will be explained. FIGS. 11-22 are state transition diagrams for explaining state transitions in this embodiment.

As shown in Figure 11-22, in the normal state (low probability/low base state), if a jackpot B occurs and the game ball passes through the variable probability region (V switch 131SG023B1), it is controlled to a variable probability state, and the jackpot occurs. When A occurs, the time saving state A (time saving state via jackpot (low probability/high base state)) is controlled. Although not shown, even if the jackpot B occurs and the game ball does not pass through the variable probability area (V switch 131SG023B1), the time saving state A (time saving state via the jackpot) is controlled. In addition, even if the result is a loss, if the relief time is shortened (after the RAM clearing process or after the probability variable state ends, the number of variable displays reaches 900 without the next jackpot occurring, or in the time shortened state) After the end of 110 variable displays in A, if the number of variable displays reaches 790 without the next jackpot occurring), time saving state B (time saving state via relief time saving (low probability / high base state) ) is controlled by

In addition, as shown in Figure 11-22, if either jackpot B or jackpot C occurs in the variable probability state (high probability/high base state) and the game ball passes through the variable probability region, the state returns to the variable probability state. controlled. Although not shown, if either jackpot B or jackpot C occurs and the game ball does not pass through the probability variable area, the time saving state A (time saving state via jackpot) is controlled.

In addition, as shown in Figure 11-22, in time saving state A (low probability/high base state), if either jackpot B or jackpot C occurs and the game ball passes through the probability variable area, the probability variable state will occur. controlled. Although not shown, if either jackpot B or jackpot C occurs and the game ball does not pass through the variable probability area, the time saving state A (time saving state via jackpot) is controlled again. Further, in the time saving state A, when the variable display is completed 110 times without a jackpot occurring, the control is returned to the normal state.

In addition, as shown in Figure 11-22, in time saving state B (low probability/high base state), if either jackpot B or jackpot C occurs and the game ball passes through the probability variable area, the probability variable state will occur. controlled. Although not shown, if either jackpot B or jackpot C occurs and the game ball does not pass through the variable probability area, the time saving state A (time saving state via jackpot) is controlled again. Further, in the time saving state B, when the variable display is completed 1100 times without a jackpot occurring, the control is returned to the normal state. Furthermore, even if the result is a loss, if the rescue time is shortened (after the RAM clearing process or after the variable probability state ends, the number of variable displays reaches 900 without the next jackpot occurring, or the time is shortened) When the number of variable displays reaches 790 times without the occurrence of the next jackpot after the completion of 110 variable displays in state A), the control is performed to time saving state B (time saving state via relief time saving).

In addition, in this embodiment, when a jackpot occurs during the time saving state B and the game ball does not enter the probability variable area, the case is shown in which the game is uniformly shifted to the time saving state A. Unlimited. For example, by comparing the remaining number of current time saving times with the number of time saving times (in this embodiment, 110 times) corresponding to the case where the game ball did not enter the probability variable area (V switch 131SG023B1), If the remaining number of times is greater, the current time saving state B may be continued as is.

In this embodiment, although it is possible to perform variable display of the first special symbol during the time saving state or the variable probability state, it is a disadvantageous game for the player. The state transition is explained without assuming that the variable display of the first special symbol will be executed.

[Production control process processing/pre-read notice]
As shown in FIGS. 11-23 and 11-24, in the prefetch notice setting process of this embodiment, the timing at which a starting winning occurs (the received command buffer at the starting winning shown in FIG. 11-15 (B) is stored pending) Active display or pending display can be activated by setting the pending display flag to any of 0 to 2 at the timing when the starting opening winning prize designation command, symbol designation command, fluctuation category command, and pending storage number notification command are newly stored. The display mode of the active display and the pending display can be used to suggest the proportion of the jackpot gaming state.

For example, as shown in Figure 11-24, if the variable display result indicated by the symbol designation command is "miss" and the variable category indicated by the variable category command is "non-reach", the pre-read notice is not executed ( Set the value of the pending display flag to "0") at a rate of 95%, and execute the pre-read notice in production pattern α (set the value of the pending display flag to "1") at a rate of 5%. , and execution of the pre-read notice in presentation pattern β (setting the value of the pending display flag to "2") is determined at a ratio of 0%.

In addition, if the variable display result indicated by the symbol designation command is "miss" and the variation category indicated by the variation category command is "other (normal reach)", the pre-read notice is not executed (the value of the pending display flag is set to " 90% of the time, it is decided to execute the pre-read notice in production pattern α (set the value of the pending display flag to "1") at a 10% rate, and Execution of the preview in production pattern β (setting the value of the pending display flag to "2") is determined at a rate of 0%.

In addition, if the variable display result indicated by the symbol designation command is "miss" and the variable category indicated by the variable category command is "super reach", the pre-read notice is not executed (the value of the pending display flag is set to "0"). 70% of the time, the execution of the pre-read notice in production pattern α (setting the value of the pending display flag to "1") is decided at a 20% rate, and the pre-read notice is set to "1". Execution in production pattern β (setting the value of the pending display flag to "2") is determined at a rate of 10%.

In addition, if the variable display result indicated by the symbol designation command is a "jackpot", the non-execution of the pre-read notice (setting the value of the pending display flag to "0") is determined at a rate of 5%, and the pre-read notice is is executed in production pattern α (setting the value of the pending display flag to "1") at a rate of 30%, and the pre-read notice is executed in production pattern β (setting the value of the pending display flag to "2"). (to be set) at a rate of 65%.

After executing the pre-read notice setting process, the pending display/active display update process (131SGS162), the display update process for the remaining number of times the relief time reduction etc. are reached (step 131SGS163), and the relief time reduction arrival notification performance execution process (step 131SGS164) are executed. do. In the pending display/active display update process, the process starts displaying the pending display or active display in a display mode according to the value of the pending display flag, and the active display is deleted from the active display area 131SG005F at the end timing of the variable display. Processing and processing to hide or start displaying the pending display and active display according to the progress of the performance during the variable display are executed. In the display update process for the remaining number of rescue time reductions, the value of the remaining number of rescue time reduction display 131SG005Z (see FIG. 11-1) displayed on the image display device 5 is updated each time the variable display starts, and In accordance with the progress of the current performance, processing to hide or start displaying the remaining number of rescue time reduction attainment display 131SG005Z is executed. In the relief time saving arrival notification performance execution process, from the end timing of the variable display when the number of variable displays has reached 900 times, a process for executing a relief time saving arrival notification effect that notifies that the time saving state B has been controlled is executed. .

[Variable display start setting process]
FIG. 11-25 is a flowchart showing an example of the variable display start setting process shown in FIG. In the variable display start setting process, the production control CPU 120 first determines whether the first variable display start command reception flag is set (step 131SGS601). If the first variable display start command reception flag is set, copy the various command data stored in association with the buffer number "1-1" in the start winning reception command buffer 131SG194A to the active display buffer 131SG194B. (131SGS602). In addition, the first special figure pending memory (various command data stored in correspondence with buffer numbers "1-1" to "1-4") in the start winning command buffer 131SG194A is shifted upward one by one. (Step 131SGS603). Note that at this time, the various command data stored in the buffer number "1-1" are erased because there is no destination to shift them to.

If the first variable display start command reception flag is not on in step 131SGS601, it is determined whether the second variable display start command reception flag is set (step 131SGS604). If the second variable display start command reception flag is set, copy the various command data stored in association with buffer number "2-1" in the start winning reception command buffer 131SG194A to the active display buffer 131SG194B. (131SGS605). In addition, the second special figure pending memory (various command data stored in association with buffer numbers "2-1" to "2-4") in the start winning command buffer 131SG194A is shifted upward one by one. (Step 131SGS606). Note that at this time, the various command data stored in buffer number "2-1" are erased because there is no destination to shift them to.

Incidentally, if the second special figure variable display start command reception flag is not on, the variable display start setting process is ended.

After executing step 131SGS603 or step 131SGS6060, the production control CPU 120 reads the fluctuation pattern designation command from the fluctuation pattern designation command storage area (step 131SGS607). Furthermore, the stop symbols of the decorative symbols are determined according to the read variation pattern designation command and the data stored in the display result designation command storage area (step 131SGS608).

For example, as shown in Figure 11-26, if the variable display result is "miss" and the variation pattern is non-reach (non-reach is off), the stop symbols are set to "124" or "578" at a rate of 100%. ” and other “non-reach” combinations (non-reach mode, non-reach mode). In addition, if the variable display result is "miss" and the fluctuation pattern is normal reach (normal reach is off), the stop symbol will be a combination of "reach" with an even number such as "242" or "676" at a rate of 95% ( Even number reach format, even number reach is off format), and a 5% ratio of "reach" combinations with odd numbers other than 7 such as "131" and "545" (odd number reach format, odd number reach is off format) do.

In addition, if the variable display result is "miss" and the fluctuation pattern is super reach (super reach is off), the stop symbol will be "reach" with an even number such as "242" or "676" at a rate of 80%. The combination (even number reach mode, even number reach is off) is decided, and 19% of the combinations are "reach" with odd numbers other than 7 such as "131" and "545" (odd number reach mode, odd number reach is off) The combination of "reach" with seven symbols such as "767" and "787" ("7" reach mode, "7" reach off mode) is determined at a rate of 1%.

Then, if the variable display result is "Jackpot", the stop symbol is determined to be a "reach" combination (even number reach mode, even number reach jackpot mode) with an even number such as "222" or "666" at a rate of 20%. Then, 50% of the time, the combination of "reach" with odd numbers other than 7 such as "111" and "555" (odd number reach mode, odd number reach jackpot mode) is decided, and 30% of the time, the combination of "777" is decided. A combination of "reach" with 7 symbols ("7" reach mode, "7" reach jackpot mode) is determined.

In other words, the expectation of jackpot is highest when the decorative symbol is a "7" symbol and it is a reach, and from then on, when it is a reach with an odd number symbol other than "7", when it is a reach with an even number symbol, and when it is a non-reach. The jackpot expectation level is set to decrease in order (Jackpot expectation level due to decorative symbols: Reach with "7" symbol > Reach with odd symbols other than "7" > Reach with even numbers > No reach). Therefore, in the present embodiment, it is possible to draw the player's attention to whether or not the decorative symbol is a reach mode, and which symbol is a reach mode.

In addition, in this example, a form in which the jackpot expectation level is different depending on the case where the combination of even numbers of decorative symbols is a reach and the case where a combination of odd numbers is a reach, etc., has been exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this. Instead, the expected level of jackpot may be the same no matter which combination of decorative symbols becomes a reach, or the expected level of jackpot when a reach is achieved depending on the size of the number indicated by the decorative pattern. may be different.

Returning to FIG. 11-25, after determining the stop symbols of the decorative symbols, the performance control CPU 120 determines whether to execute a preview performance during variable display that indicates the possibility that the variable display result will be a jackpot during variable display. A variable display preview performance determination process (step 131SGS609) is executed to determine the.

Thereafter, the performance control CPU 120 selects a process table (performance control pattern) according to the variable pattern, the gaming state, the variable display result, and the determination result of the variable display notice performance determination process (step 131SGS610), and starts the process timer. Start (step 131SGS611).

Note that a production control pattern is set in each process table. Specifically, display control execution data for controlling the display of the image display device 5, lamp control execution data for controlling the lighting of each LED, and sound control for controlling the sound output from the speakers 8L and 8R. Execution data, operation unit control execution data for controlling the operations of the push button 31B and the stick controller 31A, etc. are arranged in chronological order in association with each process data n (numbers 1 to N).

Next, the performance control CPU 120 controls the performance device (image display as a performance component) according to the contents of the process data 1 (display control execution data 1, lamp control execution data 1, sound control execution data 1, operation unit control execution data 1). The device 5, various lamps as performance parts, speakers 8L and 8R as performance parts, and operation units (push button 31B, stick controller 31A, etc.) are controlled (131SGS612). For example, a command is output to the display control unit 123 in order to display an image according to the variation pattern on the image display device 5. Further, in order to control the lighting/extinguishing of various lamps, a control signal (lamp control execution data) is output to the lamp control board 14. Furthermore, a control signal (sound number data) is output to the audio control board 13 in order to output audio from the speakers 8L and 8R.

In this embodiment, the performance control CPU 120 performs control so that the decorative symbols are displayed variably according to the variation patterns that correspond one-to-one to the variation pattern designation commands. The variation pattern to be used may be selected from a plurality of types of variation patterns corresponding to the command.

Then, a value corresponding to the variable display time specified by the variable pattern designation command is set in the variable display time timer (131SGS613). Also, a predetermined time is set in the variable display control timer (131SGS614). Note that the predetermined time is, for example, 30 ms, and the performance control CPU 120 writes image data indicating the display state of the decorative symbol on the left center right to the VRAM every time the predetermined time elapses, and the display control unit 123 writes the image data to the VRAM. A signal corresponding to the image data obtained is output to the image display device 5, and the image display device 5 displays an image corresponding to the signal, thereby achieving variable display of the decorative pattern. Next, the value of the performance control process flag is set to a value corresponding to the variable display performance process (S172) (131SGS615).

In addition, in the variable display performance processing, the values of the process timer, variable display time timer, and variable display control timer are each reduced by 1. Then, control of the presentation device is executed according to the value of the process timer, variable display of the decorative pattern is realized as described above according to the value of the variable display control timer, and decorative pattern is displayed according to the value of the variable display time timer. What is necessary is to stop the variable display of and set the value of the production control process flag to a value corresponding to the special figure per waiting process (S173).

[About production during variable display]
When the production control CPU 120 receives the first variable display start command or the second variable display start command that specifies the start of the variable display in the variable display start waiting process of step S170, the production control CPU 120 sets the variable display start setting of the subsequent step S171. In the process, based on the variable display results such as the variable pattern specified by the variable pattern specification command and the special pattern or decorative pattern specified by the variable display result specification command, the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern (determined decorative pattern), Decide on the variable display mode of the decorative design, whether or not to execute the reach effect, its mode, execution start timing, etc., set the effect control pattern that reflects the decision results, etc., and set the effect control pattern based on the set effect control pattern. Controls variable display of symbols and reach effect.

As shown in FIG. 11-33, in the title display part of the low base weak reach A performance, a part of the title characters of the low base weak reach A performance “Catch the Bakuchu!” is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5. The title start period from when the title is displayed until it is displayed in the fixed position, the title display period in which the title character "Catch the Bakuchu!" is displayed in the fixed position, and the title character "Catch the Bakuchu!" that was displayed in the fixed position. Catch me!'' disappears and the title ends until the introduction part changes.

When transitioning to the title display part of the low base weak reach A performance, the performance control CPU 120 first starts displaying the title start period. In the title start period of the low base weak reach A production, as shown in Figures 11-32 (a3) to (a4), a part of the title characters "Catch the Bakuchu!" is displayed from the left side of the display area in the reach mode. Out of the left and right decorative patterns (small), make it appear in a manner that overlaps with the left decorative pattern (small), then move the entire title character "Catch the Bakuchu!" toward the fixed position and stop at the fixed position. let When the title character "Catch the Bakushu!" is stationary in a fixed position, a part of the title character "Catch the Bakushu!" is displayed in a manner that overlaps with both the decorative patterns (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode. be done.

As the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode, one of the numbers "1" to "9" ("2" in the figure) will be displayed, but the title of the low base weak reach A production. During the start period, even if the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode is a number from "1" to "9", part of the title character "Catch the Bakuchu!" will be the decoration on the left and right side of the reach mode. It appears in a state where it overlaps with the decorative pattern (small) on the left side of the pattern (small), and when the title character "Catch the Bakushu!" is stationary in the fixed position, the title character "Catch the Bakushu!" A portion is displayed in such a manner that it overlaps with both the left and right decorative patterns (small) in the ready-to-reach mode.

The performance control CPU 120 displays the title characters "Catch the Bakuchu!" in a fixed position during the title start period, and then shifts the display to the title display period. During the title display period of the low base weak reach A production, as shown in Figures 11-32 (a4) to (a5), the enemy character ``Catch the Bakuchu!'' is displayed behind the title character ``Catch the Bakuchu!'' that is displayed in a fixed position. "Bakuchu" appears, and below the title text "Catch Bakchu!", a subtitle with the line "If you can, try to catch it!" is displayed according to the scene where the enemy character "Bakuchu" appears. The audio of the lines displayed as subtitles is output from the speakers 8L and 8R. At this time, as shown in FIG. 11-33, no sound for reading the title is output. In addition, as shown in Figure 11-33, the title display period of the low base weak reach A effect is executed for a longer time than the title start period of the low base weak reach A effect (Figures 11-47 and 11- 48).

After the title display period ends, the performance control CPU 120 shifts the display to the title end period. During the title end period of the low base weak reach A production, as shown in Figures 11-32 (a5) to (a6), the title characters "Catch the Bakuchu!" displayed in the fixed position are moved from the fixed position to the display area. Move the title to the right side until all the title characters disappear. As shown in Figure 11-33, the title end period of the low base weak reach A effect ends in a shorter time than the title start period and title display period of the low base weak reach A effect (Figures 11-47 and 11 -48). Further, as shown in FIG. 11-33, in the title display part of the low base weak reach A performance, the expectation level suggestion display described later is not displayed.

The performance control CPU 120 starts the introduction part of the low base weak reach A performance after the end of the title end period. As shown in Figures 11-32 (a6) to (a7), the background at the start of the introduction part of the low base weak reach A effect is the same as the background of the title display part (corridor background), and from the title display part The scene of the video that started (the scene where the enemy character "Bakuchu" appears) continues throughout the introduction part, and the line that was displayed in the title display part, "Catch it if you can!", continues to be displayed. , the audio of the lines being output from the speakers 8L and 8R is also continuously output. After that, as shown in Figures 11-32 (a7) to (a8), at the timing when the audio output of the line "Catch it if you can!" displayed in the title display part is finished, the next part of the introductory part is started. The scene changes to a video scene (a scene in which the ally character ``Mumemu'' chases the enemy character ``Bakuchu'').

The production control CPU 120 is introduced when a variation pattern is specified by a variation pattern specification command that develops after a low base weak super reach A to one of the low base strong super reach A to C or the low base strongest super reach. After performing a falling effect in which the movable body 32 falls at the end of the part, it is developed into one of a low base strong reach A effect, a low base strong reach B effect, a low base strong reach C effect, and a low base strongest reach effect. . On the other hand, when the variation pattern specification command specifies a variation pattern in which the reach is off after the low base weak super reach A, the ally character "Yumemu" will catch the enemy character "Bakuchu" at the end of the introduction part. , the performance result of the low base weak reach A performance is notified to the effect that it is not a jackpot, and then a decorative pattern indicating the type of reach failure specified by the variable display result designation command is displayed on the image display device 5. Display the (large) combination.

In addition, in a configuration that includes a fluctuation pattern that becomes a jackpot without developing into another super reach performance after the execution of the low base weak reach A performance, the performance control CPU 120 executes the low base weak super reach A performance by the fluctuation pattern specification command. After executing the low base weak reach A effect, if a variation pattern is specified that will result in a jackpot without developing into another super reach effect, at the end of the introduction part, the ally character ``Yumemu'' will attack the enemy character ``Bakugo''. "Chu" is caught and the performance result of the low base weak reach A performance is a jackpot (controlled to a jackpot gaming state), and then the image display device 5 is notified by a variable display result designation command. A combination of decorative patterns (large) indicating a designated type of jackpot is displayed.

[About low base weak reach B production]
FIG. 11-34 is a diagram showing the transition of images displayed on the image display device 5 when the low base weak reach B effect is executed, and FIG. 11-35 is a diagram showing the execution status of the low base weak reach B effect. This is a timing chart.

The production control CPU 120 receives the first variable display start command or the second variable display start command in the normal state, and when the variation pattern corresponding to the low base weak super reach B is specified by the variation pattern specification command, As shown in FIG. 11-34 (b1), the decorative pattern (large) of the type specified by the variable display result designation command is displayed on the left side of the image display device 5 at a predetermined timing. , stops at the "right" decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5R and executes a normal reach effect in a reach mode. After that, operation promotion effect A to be described later is executed, and as shown in FIG. 11-34 (b2), the pending display and active display of the first pending memory display area 131SG005D, the second pending memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F After executing a white flash effect in which the entire display area is displayed in white while maintaining , the title display part of the low base weak reach B effect is started.

As shown in Figures 11-34 (b1) to (b3), the background (background of the daytime sky) in which the decorative pattern (large) in the normal state that was displayed before the white flash effect is fluctuating is different from the white flash effect. After that, the background changes to the low base weak reach B effect (the background where the character "Yumemu" and the character "Boingo" face each other from side to side with a hockey table in between), and the decorative pattern that was displayed in the reach mode before the white flash effect is displayed. (Large) switches to the reach mode of the decorative pattern (small), which is smaller in size than the decorative pattern (large), after the white flash effect.

As shown in FIG. 11-35, in the title display part of the low base weak reach B performance, part of the title characters "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" of the low base weak reach B performance is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5. The title start period from 2000 until it is displayed in the fixed position, the title display period in which the title characters "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" are displayed in the fixed position, and the display of the title characters "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" that was displayed in the fixed position. This includes the title end period until it disappears and switches to the introduction part.

When transitioning to the title display part of the low base weak reach B performance, the performance control CPU 120 first starts displaying the title start period. In the title start period of the low base weak reach B production, as shown in Figures 11-34 (b3) to (b4), part of the title characters "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" is displayed from the left side of the display area to the left and right sides of the reach mode. The decorative pattern (small) is made to appear in a manner overlapping with the left decorative pattern (small), and then the entire title character ``Bilibili Hockey Showdown'' is moved toward a fixed position and kept stationary at the fixed position. When the title character "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" is stationary in a fixed position, a part of the title character "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" is displayed in a manner overlapping with both the left and right decorative patterns (small) of the reach mode.

As the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode, one of the numbers "1" to "9" ("2" in the figure) will be displayed, but the title of the low base weak reach B production During the start period, even if the decorative symbols (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode are numbers from "1" to "9", part of the title characters "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" will be replaced by the decorative symbols (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode. When the title character "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" is stationary in the fixed position, a part of the title character "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" appears in the reach mode. It is displayed in such a manner that it overlaps both the left and right decorative patterns (small).

The production control CPU 120 displays the title characters "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" in a fixed position during the title start period, and then shifts the display to the title display period. During the title display period of the low base weak reach B production, as shown in Figures 11-34 (b4) to (b5), the ally character "Yumemu" and the enemy character "Boingo" are displayed below the title characters "Bilibili Hockey Showdown". '' is displayed in response to the scene in which the left and right players are facing each other, and the subtitles ``Let's play hockey! We won't lose!'' are displayed, and the audio of the lines displayed in the subtitles is output from speakers 8L and 8R. At this time, as shown in FIG. 11-35, no sound for reading the title is output. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 11-35, the title display period of the low base weak reach B effect is executed for a longer time than the title start period of the low base weak reach B effect (Figures 11-47 and 11- 48).

After the title display period ends, the performance control CPU 120 shifts the display to the title end period. During the title end period of the low base weak reach B production, as shown in (b5) to (b6), the title characters "Bilibili Hockey Showdown" displayed in the fixed position are moved from the fixed position to the right side of the display area. Move it until everything disappears. As shown in Figure 11-35, the title end period of the low base weak reach B effect ends in a shorter time than the title start period and title display period of the low base weak reach B effect (Figures 11-47 and 11 -48). Further, as shown in FIG. 11-35, in the title display part of the low base weak reach B performance, the expectation level suggestion display described later is not displayed.

The performance control CPU 120 starts the introduction part of the low base weak reach B performance after the end of the title end period. As shown in Figures 11-34 (b6) to (b7), the background at the beginning of the introduction part of the low base weak reach B effect is the background of the title display part (the character ``Yumemu'' and the character ``Yumemu'' with a hockey table in between. The scene in the video that starts from the title display part (the scene where the ally character "Yumemu" and the enemy character "Boingo" confront each other left and right) continues throughout the introduction part. In addition, the line "Let's play hockey! We won't lose!" that was displayed in the title display part continues to be displayed, and the audio of the line that is being output from the speakers 8L and 8R continues to be output. After that, as shown in Figures 11-34 (b7) to (b8), at the timing when the audio output of the line "Let's play hockey! We won't lose!" that was displayed in the title display part ends, the introduction part starts. The scene switches to the next video scene (the scene where the ally character "Mumemu" hits the puck back).

The production control CPU 120 is introduced when a variation pattern is specified by a variation pattern specification command that develops into one of the low base weak super reach B, the low base strong super reach A to C, and the low base strongest super reach. After performing a falling effect in which the movable body 32 falls at the end of the part, it is developed into one of a low base strong reach A effect, a low base strong reach B effect, a low base strong reach C effect, and a low base strongest reach effect. . On the other hand, if the variation pattern specification command specifies a variation pattern in which the reach is off after the low base weak super reach B, the ally character "Yumemu" will fight against the enemy character "Boingo" at the end of the introduction part. Unable to win, a performance result indicating that it is not a jackpot is notified as a performance result of the low base weak reach B performance, and thereafter, the image display device 5 shows the type of reach failure specified by the variable display result designation command. Display the combination of decorative designs (large).

In addition, in a configuration including a fluctuation pattern that results in a jackpot without developing into another super reach performance after the execution of the low base weak reach B performance, the performance control CPU 120 executes the low base weak reach B performance by the fluctuation pattern specification command. After execution, if a variable pattern that results in a jackpot without developing into other super reach effects is specified, at the end of the introduction part, the ally character "Yumemu" wins the battle against the enemy character "Boingo" and the low The performance result of the base weak reach B performance is a jackpot (it is controlled to a jackpot gaming state), and then the image display device 5 is notified of the type of jackpot specified by the variable display result specification command. Display a combination of decorative patterns (large) indicating .

[About low base strong reach A production]
FIG. 11-36 is a diagram showing the transition of images displayed on the image display device 5 during execution of the low base strong reach A effect, and FIG. 11-37 is a diagram showing the execution status of the low base strong reach A effect. This is a timing chart.

The production control CPU 120 receives the first variable display start command or the second variable display start command in the normal state, and when the variation pattern corresponding to the low base strong super reach A is specified by the variation pattern specification command, If the variation pattern is a variation pattern that develops from normal reach to low base weak super reach A or low base weak super reach B, after executing the normal reach performance, perform the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance. , develop into a low base strong reach A production. In addition, when a variation pattern corresponding to the low base strong super reach A is specified by the variation pattern specification command, if the variation pattern is a variation pattern that directly develops from the normal reach effect, after the execution of the normal reach effect, the selection effect described below will be performed. Execute and develop into a low base strong reach A production.

When developing from the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance, the performance control CPU 120 performs a falling performance in which the movable body 32 falls at the final stage of the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance. After execution, the title display part of the low base strong reach A performance starts. In the falling effect, as shown in Figure 11-36 (c1), the left and right decorative symbols (small) of the reach mode are displayed, the first pending memory display area 131SG005D, the second pending memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F are displayed. While maintaining the hold display and active display, after switching from the background at the end of the low base weak reach A production or the low base weak reach B production to the background dedicated to the falling production (background with a pattern spreading radially from the center), the movable object 32 is dropped, and then the movable body 32 is raised to the initial position.

In addition, in the case of direct development from normal reach, the performance control CPU 120 starts the title display part of the low base strong reach A performance after executing the selection performance described later, as shown in FIG. 11-36 (c1'). do. Details of the selection effect will be described later, but in the selection effect, at the start of the selection effect, the hold display and active display of the first hold memory display area 131SG005D, the second hold memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F are hidden.

As shown in Figure 11-37, the title display part of the low base strong reach A performance is the same as the prologue display period before the title characters of the low base strong reach A performance are displayed. , the title start period from when a part of the title character "Two people catch the Bakushu!" is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 until it is displayed in the fixed position, and the title character "Two people catch the Bakushu!" The title display period during which “Catch the Bakuchu!” is displayed in a fixed position, and the title end period until the display of the title characters “Catch the Bakuchu!”, which was displayed in a fixed position, disappears and switches to the introduction part. ,including.

When transitioning to the title display part of the low base strong reach A performance, the performance control CPU 120 first starts displaying a prologue display period.

During the prologue display period of the low base strong reach A performance that has transitioned from the falling performance, a background dedicated to the falling performance (a background with patterns spreading radially from the center), a display of decorative patterns (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode, and the first reserved memory are displayed. While maintaining the pending display and active display of the display area 131SG005D, the second pending memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F, the ally character "Yumemu" is displayed on a background dedicated to the falling effect (a background with patterns radiating from the center). , after displaying on a layer in front of the pending display and the active display, the ally character "Yumemu" is enlarged and displayed until the entire display area is filled.

In addition, during the prologue display period of the low base strong reach A performance that has transitioned from the selection performance, the selection result image of the selection performance (here, the result image of the low base strong reach A performance), the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right of the reach mode. While maintaining the display, the ally character ``Yumemu'' is displayed in a layer in front of the selection result screen of the selection performance, and then the ally character ``Yumemu'' is enlarged and displayed until the entire display area is filled.

After the end of the prologue display period, the performance control CPU 120 causes the transition to the title start period.

As shown in Figures 11-36 (c1) to (c3), during the prologue display period that transitions from the falling effect, only the falling effect that was displayed before the entire display area was filled with the enlarged display of the ally character "Yumemu" After the prologue display period ends, the background (background with a pattern spreading radially from the center) will switch to the background of the low base strong reach A production (the background where the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Jam" are displayed in the hallway). , the pending display and active display that were displayed before the entire display area was filled with the enlarged display of the ally character "Yumemu" are hidden after the prologue display period ends. Note that the display of the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the ready-to-reach mode is maintained even after the prologue display period ends.

Additionally, although not shown, during the prologue display period when the transition from the selection effect occurs, the selection result image of the selection effect that was displayed before the entire display area was filled with the enlarged display of the ally character "Yumemu" is displayed at the end of the prologue display period. After that, the background changes to a low base strong reach A production (background where the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Jam" are displayed in the hallway). The display of the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the ready-to-reach mode is maintained even after the end of the prologue display period, and the pending display and active display that were hidden in the selection performance remain hidden.

During the title start period of the low base strong reach A production, as shown in Figures 11-36 (c3) to (c4), part of the title characters "Let's catch Bakuchu together!" is displayed from the left side of the display area. Out of the decorative patterns (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode, make it appear in a manner that overlaps with the left decorative pattern (small), and then move the entire title character "Two people catch the Bakushu!" toward the fixed position. and hold it in place. When the title character "Two people catch the Bakushu!" is stationary in the fixed position, a part of the title character "Two people catch the Bakushu!" appears on both the left and right decorative patterns (small) of the reach mode. are displayed in an overlapping manner.

As the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode, one of the numbers "1" to "9" ("2" in the figure) will be displayed, but the title of the low base strong reach A production During the start period, even if the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode is a number from "1" to "9", a part of the title character "Two people catch Bakushu!" will be displayed in the reach mode. Out of the left and right decorative patterns (small), it appears in a manner that overlaps with the left decorative pattern (small), and when the title character "Two people catch the Bakushu!" remains in the fixed position, the title character "2" appears. A portion of "Catch the Bakuchu with people!" is displayed in a manner that overlaps both the decorative patterns (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode.

The performance control CPU 120 displays the title characters "Two people catch the Bakushu!" in a fixed position during the title start period, and then shifts the display to the title display period. During the title display period of the low base strong reach A production, first, as shown in Figure 11-36 (c4), the title text "Let's catch Bakushu together!" is displayed with the expectation level suggestion display hidden. The display is maintained at a fixed position for a predetermined period of time, and during that time, as shown in FIG. 11-37, the speakers 8L and 8R output a sound reading out the title. Next, as shown in Figures 11-36 (c5) to (c6), below the title characters "Two people catch the Bakushu!" there are letters smaller than the title characters "Two people catch the Bakushu!" Display the expectation level suggestion display. As shown in Figure 11-37, the title display period of the low base strong reach A effect is executed for a longer time than the title start period of the low base strong reach A effect (see Figures 11-47 and 11-48). ).

After the title display period ends, the performance control CPU 120 shifts the display to the title end period. During the title end period of the low base strong reach A production, as shown in Figures 11-36 (c6) to (c7), the title characters "Two people catch the Bakuchu!" displayed in the fixed position are moved to the fixed position. Move the title from to the right side of the display area until all of the title characters disappear. Furthermore, the expectation level suggestion display as well as the title characters are also moved to the right side of the display area until they all disappear. As shown in Figure 11-37, the title end period of the low base strong reach A effect ends in a shorter time than the title start period and title display period of the low base strong reach A effect (Figures 11-47 and 11 -48). In addition, as shown in Figure 11-37, in the title display part of the low base strong reach A performance, the subtitles of the dialogue are not displayed as in the low base weak reach A performance and the low base weak reach B performance, and the speaker 8L, The audio of the lines is not output from 8R.

The performance control CPU 120 starts the introduction part of the low base strong reach A performance after the end of the title end period. As shown in Figures 11-36 (c3) to (c8), the background at the start of the introduction part of the low base strong reach A effect is the background after the title start period in the title display part (the ally character "Yumemu" in the hallway). and the background where "Jam" is displayed), and the video scene that starts from the title display part (the scene where the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Jam" are displayed in the hallway) continues throughout the introduction part. do. In addition, as shown in Figures 11-36 (c8) and 11-37, after the introduction part starts, the enemy character "Bakuchu" appears and the lines corresponding to the scene in which the enemy character "Bakuchu" appears. A subtitle saying "Catch it if you can!" is displayed, and the audio of the dialogue displayed in the subtitle is output from speakers 8L and 8R.

In this way, in the low base strong reach A production, the sound that reads the title is output from speakers 8L and 8R in the title display part, but the subtitles of the dialogue corresponding to the scene of the title display part are not displayed, and the sound is output from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the dialogue corresponding to the scene of the title display part is also not output, and after the introduction part starts, subtitles of the dialogue according to the scene of the introduction part are displayed, and the scene of the introduction part is output from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the dialogue is now output according to the character.

When the variation pattern designation command specifies a variation pattern that becomes a jackpot after a low base strong super reach A, the performance control CPU 120 changes the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Jam" to enemy characters at the end of the introduction part. Catch the "bakuchu" and notify the effect that it is a jackpot as a result of the low base strong reach A effect (that it will be controlled to a jackpot game state), and then specify the variable display result on the image display device 5. A combination of decorative patterns (large) representing the type of jackpot specified by the command is displayed. On the other hand, if the variation pattern specification command specifies a variation pattern in which the reach is missed after a low base strong super reach A, at the end of the introduction part, the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Jam" will ”, the performance result of the low base strong reach A performance is notified that it is not a jackpot, and after that, the image display device 5 shows that the reach of the type specified by the variable display result designation command is off. Display a combination of decorative patterns (large) indicating .

[About the display that suggests the level of expectation for the low base strong reach A production]
In the title display part of the low base strong reach A production, the image display device 5 displays the title text "Two people catch the Bakushu!" and the title text "Two people catch the Bakushu!" with a smaller size than the expected level. A suggestion display is displayed. The expectation level suggestion display displayed in the title display part is displayed above five star objects and the star object, as shown in Figure 11-36 (c5), and the star object indicates the expectation level. The number of star-shaped objects whose color changes from black to gold indicates the level of expectation among the five star-shaped objects. be.

In a normal state in which the low base strong reach A effect is executed, an object indicating the number of reservations and an object indicating an active display may be displayed on the image display device 5. On the other hand, since the expectation level suggestion display displayed in the title display part also suggests the expectation level by multiple objects, the pending display and active display and the expectation level suggestion display are displayed at the same time in the title display part. In this case, there is a possibility that the objects forming the pending display and the active display may be mistakenly recognized as the objects of the expectation level suggestion display. For this reason, in the title display part of the low base strong reach A performance where the expectation level suggestion display is displayed, the pending display and active display are configured by not displaying the pending display and active display at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display. This prevents an object from being mistakenly recognized as an object indicating the level of expectation.

In addition, since it is almost impossible for game balls to enter the second starting prize opening under normal conditions, if the number of pending special drawings for the first special drawing is at the maximum (4) and is being displayed variablely, the pending display and active display will be displayed. Up to 5 objects may be displayed, which corresponds to the number of objects that indicate the highest level of expectation in the level of expectation suggestion display, but the title display part of the low base strong reach A production. In this case, the pending display and active display are not displayed at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display, so even if the low base strong reach A effect is executed in a situation where up to 5 objects are displayed as the pending display and active display, It is possible to prevent objects displayed in the pending display and active display from being confused with objects in the expectation level suggestion display and being mistakenly recognized as having the highest expectation level in the expectation level suggestion display.

In the example shown in FIG. 11-36, the pending display and active display are displayed in the prologue display period before the expectation level suggestion display is displayed in the title display part, but the prologue display period starts. From time to time, a configuration may be adopted in which the pending display and active display are hidden, and even in such a configuration, it is possible to prevent objects forming the pending display and active display from being mistakenly recognized as objects in the expectation level suggestion display.

In addition, when executing the low base strong reach A effect, as shown in Figures 11-36 (c2) to (c3), a background dedicated to the falling effect (background with a pattern radiating from the center) during the prologue display period. , After displaying the ally character "Yumemu" on the layer in front of the pending display and active display, the ally character "Yumemu" is enlarged and displayed until the entire display area is filled, and the ally character "Yumemu" is enlarged. Since the pending display and active display that were displayed before the display area is completely filled are hidden after the prologue display period ends, the pending display and active display can be hidden without any discomfort. In addition, in the example shown in Figure 11-36, by displaying the character on a layer in front of the pending display and active display and enlarging the display until the entire display area is filled, the character is displayed before the entire display area is filled. The configuration is such that the hold display and active display are not displayed, but when executing the low base strong reach A effect, the entire display area is displayed in a single color such as white, except for the decorative pattern (small) of the reach mode. By executing the display performance, the configuration may be such that the pending display and active display that were displayed before the monochrome display performance are erased, and even in such a configuration, the pending display and active display can be hidden without any discomfort. Can be done.

In the title display part of the low base strong reach A production, as shown in Figure 11-36 (c4), the title text ``Catch the Bakuchu with two people!'' is placed in the fixed position with the expectation level suggestion display hidden. It remains displayed for a predetermined period of time, and then, as shown in Figures 11-36 (c5) to (c6), a display indicating the level of expectation is displayed below the title characters "Let's catch the Bakushu together!" Display. At this time, as shown in Figure 11-36 (c5), at the initial stage, all five star-shaped objects that make up the expectation level suggestion display are displayed in black, and then, as shown in Figure 11- As shown in 36 (c6), by changing the color of the three star-shaped objects corresponding to the low-base strong reach A effect from black to gold among the five star-shaped objects, the low-base strong reach A effect is created. The expectation level of jackpot is suggested.

When developing from a low base weak reach A performance or a low base weak reach B performance to a low base strong reach A performance, as shown in Figure 11-38 (x1) to (x2), during the prologue display period, the ally character " Until the entire display area is filled with the enlarged display of "Yume Yume", if there is a pending number remaining, the pending display and active display will be displayed, and the expectation level suggestion display will be hidden in the subsequent title display part. As shown in Figure 11-38 (x3) to (x4), without going through the step of displaying the title text "Two people catch Bakushu!" in a fixed position, the title text "Two people catch Bakushu!" is displayed. !” At the same time, five star-shaped objects that make up the expectation level suggestion display are displayed, and then the color of the star-shaped objects is changed from black to gold, and the objects that make up the pending display and active display are Immediately after the display, objects constituting the expectation level suggestion display will be displayed, and there is a possibility that the pending display and active display may be confused with the expectation level suggestion display. On the other hand, in the example shown in Figure 11-36, after the expectation level suggestion display is hidden during the prologue display period, the expectation level suggestion display is hidden during the title display period, and the title text "Two people "Let's Catch Bakushu!" remains displayed in the fixed position for a predetermined period of time, and then an indication indicating the level of expectation is displayed below the title characters "Catch Bakushu!", so the display is suspended. Also, it is possible to prevent the active display and the expectation level suggestion display from being confused.

[About low base strong reach B production]
FIG. 11-39 is a diagram showing the transition of images displayed on the image display device 5 when the low base strong reach B effect is executed, and FIG. 11-40 is a diagram showing the execution status of the low base strong reach B effect. This is a timing chart.

The production control CPU 120 receives the first variable display start command or the second variable display start command in the normal state, and when the variation pattern corresponding to the low base strong super reach B is specified by the variation pattern specification command, If the variation pattern is a variation pattern that develops from normal reach to low base weak super reach A or low base weak super reach B, after executing the normal reach performance, perform the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance. , develop into a low base strong reach B production. In addition, when a variation pattern corresponding to the low base strong super reach B is specified by the variation pattern specification command, if the variation pattern is a variation pattern that directly develops from the normal reach effect, after the normal reach effect is executed, the selection effect described below will be performed. Execute and develop into a low base strong reach B performance.

When developing from a low base weak reach A performance or a low base weak reach B performance, the performance control CPU 120 performs a falling performance in which the movable body 32 falls at the final stage of the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance. After execution, the title display part of the low base strong reach B effect starts. In the falling effect, as shown in Figure 11-39 (d1), the left and right decorative symbols (small) of the reach mode are displayed, the first pending memory display area 131SG005D, the second pending memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F are displayed. While maintaining the hold display and active display, after switching from the background at the end of the low base weak reach A production or the low base weak reach B production to the background dedicated to the falling production (background with a pattern spreading radially from the center), the movable object 32 is dropped, and then the movable body 32 is raised to the initial position.

In addition, in the case of direct development from the normal reach, the performance control CPU 120 starts the title display part of the low base strong reach B performance after executing the selection performance described later, as shown in FIG. 11-39 (d1'). do. Details of the selection effect will be described later, but in the selection effect, at the start of the selection effect, the hold display and active display of the first hold memory display area 131SG005D, the second hold memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F are hidden.

As shown in FIG. 11-40, the title display part of the low base strong reach B effect is the prologue display period before the title characters "Gekisha Robo Battle" of the low base strong reach B effect are displayed, and the display part of the image display device 5. The title start period from when part of the title characters "Geki-Shin Robo Battle" is displayed in the display area until it is displayed in the fixed position, the title display period during which the title characters "Geki-Shin Robo Battle" is displayed in the fixed position, and the fixed position This includes the end period of the title until the title character "Gekken Robo Battle" that was displayed on the screen disappears and switches to the introduction part.

When transitioning to the title display part of the low base strong reach B performance, the performance control CPU 120 first starts displaying a prologue display period.

During the prologue display period of the low base strong reach B performance that has transitioned from the falling performance, a background dedicated to the falling performance (a background with patterns spreading radially from the center), a display of decorative patterns (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode, and the first reserved memory are displayed. While maintaining the pending display and active display of the display area 131SG005D, the second pending memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F, the ally character "Yumemu" is displayed on a background dedicated to the falling effect (a background with patterns radiating from the center). , after displaying on a layer in front of the pending display and the active display, the ally character "Yumemu" is enlarged and displayed until the entire display area is filled.

In addition, during the prologue display period of the low base strong reach B performance that has transitioned from the selection performance, the selection result image of the selection performance (here, the result image of the low base strong reach B performance), the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right of the reach mode. While maintaining the display, the ally character ``Yumemu'' is displayed in a layer in front of the selection result screen of the selection performance, and then the ally character ``Yumemu'' is enlarged and displayed until the entire display area is filled.

After the end of the prologue display period, the performance control CPU 120 causes the transition to the title start period.

As shown in Figures 11-39 (d1) to (d3), during the prologue display period that transitions from the falling effect, only the falling effect that was displayed before the entire display area was filled with the enlarged display of the ally character "Yumemu" After the prologue display period ends, the background (background with a pattern spreading radially from the center) will be changed to the background dedicated to displaying the title of the low base strong reach B production (the ally characters "Jam" and "Nana" and the enemy character "Robo") The pending display and active display that were displayed before the entire display area was filled with the enlarged display of the ally character "Yumemu" will disappear after the prologue display period ends. . Note that the display of the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the ready-to-reach mode is maintained even after the prologue display period ends.

Additionally, although not shown, during the prologue display period when the transition from the selection effect occurs, the selection result image of the selection effect that was displayed before the entire display area was filled with the enlarged display of the ally character "Yumemu" is displayed at the end of the prologue display period. After that, the background is switched to a background dedicated to displaying the title of the low base strong reach B effect (a background in which the friendly characters "Jam" and "Nana" and the enemy character "Robo" are displayed on the left and right positions). The display of the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the ready-to-reach mode is maintained even after the end of the prologue display period, and the pending display and active display that were hidden in the selection performance remain hidden.

During the title start period of the low base strong reach B production, as shown in Figures 11-39 (d3) to (d4), part of the title characters "Gekishock Robo Battle" is displayed from the left side of the display area to the decorations on the left and right sides of the reach mode. The symbol (small) is made to appear in such a manner that it overlaps with the left side decorative symbol (small), and then the entire title character "Geki-Shin Robo Battle" is moved toward a fixed position and is stopped at the fixed position. When the title characters "Geki-Shin Robo Battle" are stationary in a fixed position, a part of the title characters "Geki-Shin Robo Battle" is displayed in a manner overlapping with both the left and right decorative patterns (small) of the reach mode.

As the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode, one of the numbers "1" to "9" ("2" in the figure) will be displayed, but the title of the low base strong reach B production During the start period, even if the decorative symbols (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode are numbers from "1" to "9", a part of the title character "Gekushin Robo Battle" will be displayed as the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the reach mode. ) appears in a manner that overlaps with the decoration pattern (small) on the left side, and when the title character "Geki-Shin Robo Battle" is stationary in the fixed position, part of the title character "Geki-Shin Robo Battle" appears as a decoration on the left and right side of the reach mode. It is displayed in such a manner that it overlaps both of the small design.

The performance control CPU 120 displays the title characters "Gekushin Robo Battle" in a fixed position during the title start period, and then shifts the display to the title display period. During the title display period of the low base strong reach B production, first, as shown in Figure 11-39 (d4), the title text "Gekisha Robo Battle" was displayed in a fixed position with the expectation level suggestion display hidden. This state is maintained for a predetermined period of time, and during that time, as shown in FIG. 11-40, the speakers 8L and 8R output a sound reading out the title. Next, as shown in FIGS. 11-39 (d5) to (d6), an expectation level suggestion display is displayed below the title characters "Geki-Shin Robo Battle" in a smaller size than the title characters "Geki-Shin Robo Battle". As shown in Figure 11-40, the title display period of the low base strong reach B effect is executed for a longer time than the title start period of the low base strong reach B effect (see Figures 11-47 and 11-48). ).

After the title display period ends, the performance control CPU 120 shifts the display to the title end period. During the title end period of the low base strong reach B production, as shown in Figures 11-39 (d6) to (d7), the title characters "Gekushin Robo Battle" displayed in the fixed position are moved from the fixed position to the right side of the display area. Move the title characters until all of them disappear. Furthermore, the expectation level suggestion display along with the title characters is also moved to the right side of the display area until they all disappear. As shown in Figure 11-40, the title end period of the low base strong reach B effect ends in a shorter time than the title start period and title display period of the low base strong reach B effect (Figures 11-47 and 11 -48). In addition, as shown in Figure 11-40, in the title display part of the low base strong reach B performance, the subtitles of the dialogue are not displayed as in the low base weak reach A performance and the low base weak reach B performance, and the speaker 8L, The audio of the lines is not output from 8R.

The performance control CPU 120 starts the introduction part of the low base strong reach B performance after the end of the title end period. As shown in Figures 11-39 (d3) to (d8), the background at the start of the introduction part of the low base strong reach B effect is the background dedicated to the title display in the title display part (allied characters "Jam" and "Nana"). ” and the enemy character “Robo” are displayed on the left and right positions), at the start of the introduction part, the background at the start of the introduction part of the low base strong reach B effect changes from the background dedicated to the title display in the title display part. (The background shows the friendly characters "Jam" and "Nana" and the enemy character "Robo" confronting each other in the town). In the introductory part of the low base strong reach B production, the enemy character "Robo" faces the front from the back position when viewed from the player, and the ally characters "Jam" and "Nana" face from the front position when viewed from the player. The video begins with the two facing each other with their backs turned. At this time, the enemy character "Robo" located in the back as seen from the player, and the ally characters "Jam" and "Nana" located in the front as seen from the player, are not displayed during the title display period of the title display part. The characters ``Gekisha Robo Battle'' are displayed in a position that overlaps with the original position. In addition, as shown in Figures 11-39 (d8) and 11-40, after the introduction part starts, the dialogue "Losing The subtitle "No!" is displayed, and the audio of the dialogue displayed in the subtitle is output from the speakers 8L and 8R.

In this way, in the low base strong reach B production, while the title display part outputs the audio reading out the title from speakers 8L and 8R, the subtitles of the dialogue corresponding to the scene of the title display part are not displayed and are output from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the dialogue corresponding to the scene of the title display part is also not output, and after the introduction part starts, subtitles of the dialogue according to the scene of the introduction part are displayed, and the scene of the introduction part is output from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the dialogue is now output according to the character.

The production control CPU 120 specifies a variation pattern that becomes a jackpot after a low base strong super reach B by a variation pattern specification command, and in the final stage of the introduction part, the ally characters "Jam" and "Nana" change to the enemy character " ``Robo'', the performance result of a jackpot as a result of the low base strong reach B performance (controlling to a jackpot game state) is announced, and then a variable display is displayed on the image display device 5. A combination of decorative patterns (large) representing the type of jackpot specified by the result specification command is displayed. On the other hand, if the variation pattern specification command specifies a variation pattern in which the reach is missed after the low base strong super reach B, the ally characters "Jam" and "Nana" will be connected to the enemy character "Robo" at the end of the introduction part. The player loses the battle, and the result of the low base strong reach B performance is notified to the effect that it is not a jackpot, and thereafter, the image display device 5 shows the type of reach specified by the variable display result designation command. Display the combination of decorative designs (large).

[About the display that suggests the level of expectation for the low base strong reach B performance]
In the title display part of the low base strong reach B performance, the image display device 5 displays the title characters "Geki-Shin Robo Battle" as well as an expectation level suggestion display in a size smaller than the title characters "Geki-Shin Robo Battle". The expectation level suggestion display displayed in the title display part is displayed above five star-shaped objects and the star-shaped object, as shown in Figure 11-39 (d5), and the star-shaped object indicates the expectation level. The number of star-shaped objects whose color changes from black to gold indicates the level of expectation among the five star-shaped objects. be.

In the normal state where the low base strong reach B effect is executed, an object indicating the pending number and an object indicating the active display may be displayed on the image display device 5, and in the title display part, the pending display, the active display, and the expected If the degree suggestion display and the expectation degree suggestion display are displayed at the same time, there is a risk that objects forming the pending display and the active display may be mistaken as objects of the expectation degree suggestion display. Therefore, in the title display part of the low base strong reach B performance where the expectation level suggestion display is displayed, the pending display and active display are configured by not displaying the pending display and active display at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display. This prevents an object from being mistakenly recognized as an object indicating an expectation level indication.

In addition, in the title display part of the low base strong reach B production, the pending display and active display are not displayed at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display, so in a situation where up to 5 objects are displayed as the pending display and active display, the low Even when the base strong reach B effect is executed, the objects displayed as pending display and active display may be confused with the objects in the expectation level suggestion display, and the expectation level may be mistakenly recognized as having the maximum level in the expectation level suggestion display. You can prevent it from being put away.

In addition, it is also possible to have a configuration in which the pending display and active display are hidden from the start of the prologue display period in the low base strong reach B performance, and even in such a configuration, the objects that make up the pending display and active display are It is possible to prevent the object from being mistakenly recognized as a suggestive display object.

In addition, when executing the low base strong reach B effect, as shown in Figure 11-39 (d2) to (d3), a background dedicated to the falling effect (background with a pattern radiating from the center) during the prologue display period. , After displaying the ally character "Yumemu" on the layer in front of the pending display and active display, the ally character "Yumemu" is enlarged and displayed until the entire display area is filled, and the ally character "Yumemu" is enlarged. Since the pending display and active display that were displayed before the display area is completely filled are hidden after the prologue display period ends, the pending display and active display can be hidden without any discomfort. In addition, when executing the low base strong reach B effect, by executing the monochrome display effect that displays the entire display area in a single color such as white, except for the decorative pattern (small) of the reach mode, it is possible to A configuration may be adopted in which the displayed pending display and active display are deleted, and even in such a configuration, the pending display and active display can be hidden without causing any discomfort.

In the title display part of the low base strong reach B production, as shown in Figure 11-39 (d4), the title character "Gekisha Robo Battle" is displayed in the fixed position with the expectation level suggestion display hidden. The state is maintained for a predetermined period of time, and then, as shown in FIGS. 11-39 (d5) to (d6), an expectation level suggestion display is displayed below the title characters "Gekisha Robo Battle." At this time, as shown in FIG. 11-39 (d5), at the initial stage, all five star-shaped objects forming the expectation level suggestion display are displayed in black, and then, as shown in FIG. As shown in 39 (d6), by changing the color of 3.5 star-shaped objects corresponding to the low-base strong reach B effect from black to gold among the 5 star-shaped objects, the low-base strong reach This suggests the level of expectation for a jackpot in performance B. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the pending display, the active display, and the expectation level suggestion display from being confused.

[About low base strong reach C production]
The low base strong reach C performance has many points in common with the low base strong reach B performance described above, so the drawing for the low base strong reach C performance will be omitted.

The production control CPU 120 receives the first variable display start command or the second variable display start command in the normal state, and when the variation pattern corresponding to the low base strong super reach C is specified by the variation pattern specification command, If the variation pattern is a variation pattern that develops from normal reach to low base weak super reach A or low base weak super reach B, after executing the normal reach performance, perform the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance. , develop into a low base strong reach C performance. In addition, when a variation pattern corresponding to the low base strong super reach C is specified by the variation pattern specification command, if the variation pattern is a variation pattern that directly develops from the normal reach effect, after the execution of the normal reach effect, the selection effect described below will be performed. Execute and develop into a low base strong reach C performance.

When developing from the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance, the performance control CPU 120 performs a falling performance in which the movable body 32 falls at the final stage of the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance. After execution, the title display part of the low base strong reach C effect starts. In the falling effect, while maintaining the display of the decorative symbols (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode, the hold display and active display of the first hold memory display area 131SG005D, the second hold memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F, the low base After switching from the background at the end of the weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance to the background dedicated to the falling performance (background with a pattern spreading radially from the center), the movable body 32 is dropped, and then the movable body 32 is moved to the initial position. rise to.

In addition, when directly developing from the normal reach, the performance control CPU 120 starts the title display part of the low base strong reach B performance after executing the selection performance described later. Details of the selection effect will be described later, but in the selection effect, at the start of the selection effect, the hold display and active display of the first hold memory display area 131SG005D, the second hold memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F are hidden.

The title display part of the low base strong reach C performance is the prologue display period before the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" of the low base strong reach C performance are displayed, and the title character "Daigeki Earthquake" is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5. The title start period from when a part of "Robo Battle" is displayed until it is displayed in the fixed position, the title display period during which the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" are displayed in the fixed position, and the title that was displayed in the fixed position Including the end period of the title until the display of the characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" disappears and the switch to the introduction part.

When the performance control CPU 120 moves to the title display part of the low base strong reach C performance, it first starts displaying a prologue display period.

During the prologue display period of the low base strong reach C performance that has transitioned from the falling performance, a background dedicated to the falling performance (a background with patterns spreading radially from the center), a display of decorative patterns (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode, and the first reserved memory are displayed. While maintaining the pending display and active display of the display area 131SG005D, the second pending memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F, the ally character "Yumemu" is displayed on a background dedicated to the falling effect (a background with patterns radiating from the center). , after displaying on a layer in front of the pending display and the active display, the ally character "Yumemu" is enlarged and displayed until the entire display area is filled.

In addition, during the prologue display period of the low base strong reach C performance that has transitioned from the selection performance, the selection result image of the selection performance (here, the result image of the low base strong reach C performance), the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right of the reach mode. While maintaining the display, the ally character ``Yumemu'' is displayed in a layer in front of the selection result screen of the selection performance, and then the ally character ``Yumemu'' is enlarged and displayed until the entire display area is filled.

After the end of the prologue display period, the performance control CPU 120 causes the transition to the title start period.

During the prologue display period when the transition from the falling effect occurs, the background exclusively for the falling effect (background with patterns radiating from the center) that was displayed before the entire display area was filled by the enlarged display of the ally character "Yumemu" is replaced by the prologue display. After the period ends, the background will change to a low base strong reach B effect (background where the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Nana" and the enemy character "Big Robot" are displayed on the left and right positions), and the ally character "Yumemu" The pending display and active display that were displayed before the entire display area was filled with the enlarged display are hidden after the prologue display period ends. Note that the display of the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the ready-to-reach mode is maintained even after the prologue display period ends.

Additionally, although not shown, during the prologue display period when the transition from the selection effect occurs, the selection result image of the selection effect that was displayed before the entire display area was filled with the enlarged display of the ally character "Yumemu" is displayed at the end of the prologue display period. Afterwards, the background is switched to a background dedicated to displaying the title of the low base strong reach C production (a background in which the friendly characters "Yumemu" and "Nana" and the enemy character "Big Robot" are displayed on the left and right positions). The display of the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the ready-to-reach mode is maintained even after the end of the prologue display period, and the pending display and active display that were hidden in the selection performance remain hidden.

During the title start period for the low base strong reach C production, a part of the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" will be displayed from the left side of the display area, overlapping with the left decorative pattern (small) of the left and right decorative patterns (small) of the reach mode. After that, the entire title character ``Great Earthquake Robo Battle'' is moved toward a fixed position, and then stopped at the fixed position. When the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" are stationary in a fixed position, a part of the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" is displayed in a manner overlapping with both the left and right decorative patterns (small) of the reach mode.

One of the numbers "1" to "9" ("2" in the figure) will be displayed as the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode, but during the title start period, the reach mode Even if the left and right decorative patterns (small) are numbers from "1" to "9", a part of the title character "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" is the left side of the left and right decorative patterns (small) in reach mode. It appears in a manner that overlaps with the design (small), and when the title character "Daigekisha Robo Battle" is stationary in the fixed position, a part of the title character "Daigekisha Robo Battle" appears in the left and right decorative design (small) of the reach mode. are displayed in an overlapping manner with both.

The production control CPU 120 displays the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" in a fixed position during the title start period, and then shifts the display to the title display period. During the title display period of the low base strong reach C production, first, the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" remain displayed in the fixed position with the expectation level suggestion display hidden for a predetermined period of time. , the speakers 8L and 8R output a sound reading out the title. Next, an expectation level suggestion display is displayed below the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" in a size smaller than the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle." The title display period of the low base strong reach C effect is executed for a longer time than the title start period of the low base strong reach C effect (see FIGS. 11-47 and 11-48).

After the title display period ends, the performance control CPU 120 shifts the display to the title end period. During the title end period of the low base strong reach C performance, the title characters ``Great Earthquake Robo Battle'' displayed at a fixed position are moved from the regular position to the right side of the display area until all the title characters disappear. Furthermore, the expectation level suggestion display as well as the title characters are also moved to the right side of the display area until they all disappear. The title end period of the low base strong reach C effect ends in a shorter time than the title start period and title display period of the low base strong reach C effect (see FIGS. 11-47 and 11-48). Furthermore, in the title display part of the low base strong reach C performance, unlike the low base weak reach A performance and the low base weak reach B performance, the subtitles of the dialogue are not displayed, and the audio of the dialogue is not output from the speakers 8L and 8R.

The performance control CPU 120 starts the introduction part of the low base strong reach C performance after the end of the title end period. The background at the beginning of the introduction part of the low base strong reach C production is the background dedicated to the title display in the title display part (the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Nana" and the enemy character "Big Robot" are displayed on the left and right positions). At the beginning of the introduction part, the background for the introduction part of the low base strong reach C effect (the background of the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Nana" and the enemy character The scene changes to the background where the "Big Robot" confronts each other in the town. In the introductory part of the low base strong reach C production, the enemy character "Big Robot" is facing forward on the back side as seen from the player, and the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Nana" are on the back side on the front side as seen from the player. The video starts with a scene where the two face off against each other. At this time, the enemy character "Big Robot" located in the back as seen from the player, and the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Nana" located in the front as seen from the player, are displayed during the title display period of the title display part. , the title characters ``Great Earthquake Robo Battle'' are displayed in a position that overlaps with the regular position where they were displayed. In addition, after the introduction part starts, the subtitles ``I will never lose!'' are displayed, corresponding to the scene where the friendly characters ``Mumemu'' and ``Nana'' confront the enemy character ``Big Robot'', and the speaker 8L, The audio of the lines displayed in subtitles is output from 8R.

In this way, in the low base strong reach C production, while the title display part outputs the audio reading out the title from speakers 8L and 8R, the subtitles of the dialogue corresponding to the scene of the title display part are not displayed and are output from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the dialogue corresponding to the scene of the title display part is also not output, and after the introduction part starts, the subtitles of the dialogue according to the scene of the introduction part are displayed, and the scene of the introduction part is output from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the dialogue is now output according to the character.

When the variation pattern specification command specifies a variation pattern that becomes a jackpot after a low base strong super reach C, the production control CPU 120 changes the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Nana" to enemy characters at the end of the introduction part. After winning the battle with the "big robot", the performance result of the low base strong reach C performance is announced as a jackpot (controlling to a jackpot game state), and then on the image display device 5, A combination of decorative patterns (large) representing the type of jackpot specified by the variable display result specification command is displayed. On the other hand, when the variation pattern specification command specifies a variation pattern in which the reach is missed after a low base strong super reach C, at the end of the introduction part the ally characters "Yumemu" and "Nana" '', the low base strong reach C effect is notified that it is not a jackpot, and then the image display device 5 shows that the reach of the type specified by the variable display result specification command is off. Display a combination of decorative patterns (large) indicating .

[About the display that suggests the level of expectation for the low base strong reach C performance]
In the title display part of the low base strong reach C performance, the image display device 5 displays the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" as well as an expectation level suggestion display in a smaller size than the title characters "Great Earthquake Robo Battle." The expectation level suggestion display displayed in the title display part is displayed above five star-shaped objects and the star-shaped object. The degree of expectation is suggested by the number of star-shaped objects whose color changes from black to gold among the five star-shaped objects.

In the normal state where the low base strong reach C effect is executed, an object indicating the pending number and an object indicating the active display may be displayed on the image display device 5, and in the title display part, the pending display, the active display, and the expected If the degree suggestion display and the expectation degree suggestion display are displayed at the same time, there is a risk that objects forming the pending display and the active display may be mistaken as objects of the expectation degree suggestion display. For this reason, in the title display part of the low base strong reach C performance where the expectation level suggestion display is displayed, the pending display and active display are configured by not displaying the pending display and active display at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display. This prevents an object from being mistakenly recognized as an object indicating the level of expectation.

In addition, in the title display part of the low base strong reach C performance, the pending display and active display are not displayed at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display, so in a situation where up to 5 objects are displayed as the pending display and active display, the low Even when the base strong reach C effect is executed, the objects displayed as pending display and active display may be confused with the objects in the expectation level suggestion display, and the expectation level may be mistakenly recognized as having the maximum level in the expectation level suggestion display. You can prevent it from being put away.

In addition, the configuration may be such that the pending display and the active display are hidden from the start of the prologue display period in the low base strong reach C performance, and even in such a configuration, the objects that make up the pending display and the active display are It is possible to prevent the object from being mistakenly recognized as a suggestive display object.

In addition, when performing the low base strong reach B effect, during the prologue display period, the background dedicated to the falling effect (background with a pattern spreading radially from the center), the ally character "Dream" on a layer in front of the pending display and the active display. After displaying "Yume", the ally character "Yume" is enlarged and displayed until the display area is completely filled, and the pending display and the display that were displayed before the display area was completely filled due to the enlarged display of the ally character "Yume" are Since the active display is hidden after the prologue display period ends, the pending display and the active display can be hidden without any discomfort. In addition, when executing the low base strong reach C effect, by executing the monochrome display effect that displays the entire display area in a single color such as white, except for the decorative pattern (small) of the reach mode, it is possible to A configuration may be adopted in which the displayed pending display and active display are deleted, and even in such a configuration, the pending display and active display can be hidden without causing any discomfort.

In the title display part of the low base strong reach C production, the title text "Great Earthquake Robo Battle" remains displayed in the fixed position with the expectation level suggestion display hidden for a predetermined period of time, and then the title text A display indicating the level of expectation will be displayed below "Great Earthquake Robo Battle". At this time, at the initial stage, all of the five star-shaped objects that make up the expectation level suggestion display are displayed in black, and then among the five star-shaped objects, the low base strong reach C effect is displayed. By changing the color of the corresponding four star-shaped objects from black to gold, the expectation level of a jackpot in the low base strong reach C performance is suggested. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the pending display, the active display, and the expectation level suggestion display from being confused.

[About low base strongest reach performance]
FIG. 11-41 is a diagram showing the transition of images displayed on the image display device 5 during execution of the low-base strongest reach effect, and FIG. 11-42 is a timing chart showing the execution status of the low-base strongest reach effect. It is.

The production control CPU 120 receives the first variable display start command or the second variable display start command in the normal state, and when a variation pattern corresponding to the low base strongest super reach is specified by the variation pattern specification command, the production control CPU 120 If the pattern is a variable pattern that develops from normal reach to low base weak super reach A or low base weak super reach B, after executing the normal reach performance, perform the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance, Developing low base and strongest reach performance. In addition, when a variation pattern corresponding to the lowest base strongest super reach is specified by the variation pattern specification command, if the variation pattern is a variation pattern that directly develops from the normal reach, after the normal reach effect is executed, the selection effect described below will be executed. Execute and develop into the strongest reach performance with low base.

When developing from a low base weak reach A performance or a low base weak reach B performance, the performance control CPU 120 performs a falling performance in which the movable body 32 falls at the final stage of the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance. After execution, the title display part of the low base strongest reach effect will start. In the falling effect, as shown in Figure 11-41 (e1), the left and right decorative symbols (small) of the reach mode are displayed, the first pending memory display area 131SG005D, the second pending memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F are displayed. While maintaining the hold display and active display, after switching from the background at the end of the low base weak reach A production or the low base weak reach B production to the background dedicated to the falling production (background with a pattern spreading radially from the center), the movable object 32 is dropped, and then the movable body 32 is raised to the initial position.

In addition, in the case of direct development from the normal reach, the performance control CPU 120 starts the title display part of the low base strongest reach performance after executing the selection performance described later, as shown in FIG. 11-41 (e1'). . Details of the selection effect will be described later, but in the selection effect, at the start of the selection effect, the hold display and active display of the first hold memory display area 131SG005D, the second hold memory display area 131SG005U, and the active display area 131SG005F are hidden.

As shown in FIG. 11-42, in the title display part of the low-base strongest reach effect, a part of the title characters of the low-base strongest reach effect, ``Six people catch Bakuchu!'', is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5. The title start period from when it is displayed until it is displayed in the fixed position, the title display period in which the title text "Six people catch Bakuchu!" is displayed in the fixed position, and the title text that was displayed in the fixed position This includes the end period of the title until the display of "Six people catch Bakuchu!" disappears and the introduction part changes.

When the performance control CPU 120 moves to the title display part of the low base strongest reach performance, it first starts displaying the title start period.

During the title start period for the low-base strongest reach effect, as shown in Figure 11-41 (e3), the display of the decorative patterns (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode is maintained, and the title text ``Catch the Bakushu with 6 people!'' !” is displayed at an enlarged size such that only some of the characters are visible in the display area. At this time, the entire display area is displayed with a portion of the title characters ``Six people catch Bakuchu!''. Further, the part of the title character "Six people catch Bakuchu!" that is displayed in the display area appears in a manner that overlaps with both the left and right decorative patterns (small) of the reach mode. After that, as shown in Figure 11-41 (e4), the title text "Six people to catch Bakushu!" gradually shrinks until all characters in the title text "Six people catch Bakushu!" are displayed. The reduced size title text ``Six people to catch Bakuchu!'' is made to stand still in a fixed position so that it can be seen in the area. When the title character ``Six people catch Bakuchu!'' is reduced to a fixed position and remains in place, a part of the title character ``Six people catch Bakuchu!'' with the strongest low-base reach effect is in reach mode. It is displayed in such a manner that it overlaps both the left and right decorative patterns (small).

As the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode, one of the numbers "1" to "9" ("2" in the figure) will be displayed, but the title starts with the strongest reach effect on a low base. During the period, regardless of whether the decorative pattern (small) on the left or right side of the reach mode is a number from "1" to "9", the title text "Catch the Bakuchu with 6 people!" that appears in enlarged size will be reached. The title character ``Six people catch Bakuchu!'' appears in a manner that overlaps with both the decorative patterns (small) on the left and right sides of the aspect, and is displayed in a reduced size while stationary in a fixed position. It is displayed in a manner that overlaps both the left and right decorative patterns (small) in the reach mode.

As shown in Figures 11-41 (e1) to (e4), during the title start period after the transition from the falling effect, the entire display area is filled with part of the enlarged title text ``Six people catch Bakuchu!'' The background dedicated to the falling effect (background with patterns radiating out from the center) that was displayed before being displayed in its full state has been changed to a part of the enlarged title text "Six people catch Bakuchu!" While the display area is completely filled, a background dedicated to displaying the title of the strongest low-base reach effect (background where 6 friendly characters and the enemy character "Bakuchu" are displayed on the left and right positions) When the title character ``Six people catch Bakuchu!'' is reduced in size and stationary in a fixed position, a background dedicated to displaying the title of the lowest base strongest reach effect is displayed as the background. In addition, during the title start period after transitioning from the falling effect, a portion of the enlarged title text ``Six people catch Bakuchu!'' was displayed before the display area was completely filled. The pending display and the active display are hidden while the display area is completely filled with a portion of the enlarged title characters "Six people catch Bakuchu!". Note that the display of the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the reach mode is maintained even after the title start period ends.

In addition, during the title start period when the selection effect was transitioned, a part of the enlarged title text "Six people catch Bakuchu!" was displayed before the display area was completely filled. The selection result image of the selection effect (in this case, the title image of the low-based strongest reach effect) is displayed in such a way that the entire display area is filled with part of the enlarged title text ``Six people catch Bakuchu!'' While this is happening, the background changes to the title display for the low-base strongest reach effect (a background in which 6 ally characters and the enemy character ``Bakuchu'' are displayed on the left and right positions), and the title text ``Six people make Bakuchu'' appears. Catch it!'' is reduced to a fixed position, and a background dedicated to displaying the title of the low-base strongest reach effect is displayed as the background. Note that the display of the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the reach mode is maintained even after the end of the title start period, and the pending display and active display that were hidden in the selection performance are maintained hidden.

The performance control CPU 120 displays the title characters "Six people catch the Bakushu!" in a reduced size at a fixed position during the title start period, and then shifts the display to the title display period. During the title display period of the low-based strongest reach production, first, as shown in Figure 11-41 (e4), the title character "6 people catch the Bakushu!" is set with the expectation level suggestion display hidden. The title is kept displayed at that position for a predetermined period of time, and during that time, as shown in FIG. 11-42, the speakers 8L and 8R output a sound reading out the title. Next, as shown in Figures 11-41 (e5) to (e6), below the title characters "Six people to catch the Bakushu!", there is a message smaller than the title characters "Six people to catch the Bakushu!" Display the expectation level suggestion display. As shown in FIG. 11-42, the title display period of the low-base strongest reach effect is executed for a longer time than the title start period of the low-base strongest reach effect (see FIGS. 11-47 and 11-48).

After the title display period ends, the performance control CPU 120 shifts the display to the title end period. During the title end period of the low-base strongest reach performance, as shown in Figures 11-41 (e6) to (e7), the title text "Catch Bakushu with 6 people!" displayed in a reduced size and in a fixed position. , a portion of the title text ``Six people catch Bakushu!'' is enlarged until the entire display area is filled. In this case, instead of being displayed in an enlarged manner, which is the opposite of the case where the title text "Six people catch the Bakushu!" is displayed in a reduced size during the title start period, the title text "Six people catch the Bakushu!" is displayed in an enlarged manner during the title start period. Catch the Bakushu!'' is reduced and displayed in a different manner from the reverse. Expand until the entire display area is filled. In other words, during the title start period, the trajectory of each part of the title character shrinks as the title character "Six people catch the Bakushu!" expands during the title end period. This is different from the trajectory that each part of the title character takes during the process. For this reason, the display area is completely filled with part of the title characters "Six people catch Bakushu!" in a manner different from the manner in which the display area is completely filled at the start of the title start period. As shown in Figure 11-42, the title end period of the low-based strongest reach effect ends in a shorter time than the title start period and title display period of the low-base strongest reach effect (Figures 11-47 and 11-48 reference). In addition, as shown in Figure 11-42, in the title display part of the low base strongest reach performance, subtitles for dialogue are not displayed as in the low base weak reach A performance and low base weak reach B performance, and the subtitles of the dialogue are not displayed on the speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the dialogue is also not output.

The performance control CPU 120 starts the introduction part of the low base strongest reach performance after the end of the title end period. As shown in Figures 11-41 (e4) to (e8), the background at the beginning of the introductory part of the low-based strongest reach effect (the background in which six friendly characters chase the enemy character "Bakuchu" in the city) is the title Unlike the background dedicated to displaying the title in the display part (the background in which six friendly characters and the enemy character "Bakuchu" are displayed on the left and right positions), during the title end period, the title text "Catch Bakuchu with 6 people!" After the background dedicated to displaying the title is completely filled and the title end period ends, the background changes to the background at the start of the introduction part of the low-base strongest reach effect. The introductory part of the low-base, strongest reach performance begins with a video scene in which six ally characters chase the enemy character "Bakuchu." In addition, as shown in Figures 11-41 (e8) and 11-42, after the introduction part begins, the line ``If you can, try to catch it! !” is displayed, and the audio of the lines displayed in the subtitles is output from the speakers 8L and 8R.

In this way, in the low-base strongest reach production, while the title display part outputs the audio that reads the title from speakers 8L and 8R, the title display part does not display subtitles with lines corresponding to the scene of the title display part, and the title is read out from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the lines corresponding to the scene of the displayed part is also not output, and after the introduction part starts, subtitles of the lines corresponding to the scene of the introduction part are displayed, and the sound of the lines of the introduction part is output from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the lines you respond to will be output.

When the variation pattern designation command specifies a variation pattern that results in a jackpot after the strongest super reach with a low base, the production control CPU 120 causes six ally characters to capture the enemy character "Bakuchu" at the end of the introduction part. The performance result of the low base strongest reach performance is a jackpot (it is controlled to a jackpot gaming state), and then the image display device 5 is notified of the type of jackpot specified by the variable display result specification command. Display a combination of decorative patterns (large) indicating . On the other hand, when the variation pattern specification command specifies a variation pattern in which the reach is missed after the strongest super reach on a low base, six ally characters are unable to catch the enemy character "Bakuchu" at the end of the introduction part. , notifies the performance result that it is not a jackpot as the performance result of the low base strongest reach performance, and then displays on the image display device 5 a decorative pattern (large) indicating the type of reach failure specified by the variable display result designation command. Display the combination.

[About the display that suggests the level of expectation for the lowest base strongest reach performance]
In the title display part of the low base strongest reach production, the image display device 5 displays the title text "Six people to catch Bakuchu!" and a smaller size than the title text "Six people to catch Bakuchu!" suggesting the level of expectation. Display is displayed. The expectation level suggestion display displayed in the title display part is displayed above five star objects and the star object, as shown in Figure 11-41 (e6), and the star object indicates the expectation level. The number of star-shaped objects whose color changes from black to gold indicates the level of expectation among the five star-shaped objects. be.

In the normal state where the low base strongest reach effect is executed, an object indicating the pending number and an object indicating the active display may be displayed on the image display device 5, and in the title display part, the pending display, the active display, and the expectation level are displayed. If the suggestion display and are displayed at the same time, there is a risk that the objects forming the pending display and the active display may be mistakenly recognized as the objects of the expectation suggestion display. Therefore, in the title display part of the low-based strongest reach performance where the expectation level suggestion display is displayed, the pending display and active display are configured by not displaying the pending display and active display at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display. This prevents the object from being mistakenly recognized as an object for displaying expectations.

In addition, in the title display part of the low base strongest reach performance, the pending display and active display are not displayed at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display, so when the low base Even when the strongest reach effect is executed, the objects displayed as pending display and active display may be confused with the objects in the expectation level suggestion display, resulting in the erroneous recognition that the expectation level is the highest in the expectation level suggestion display. can be prevented.

In addition, when executing the low-based strongest reach effect, as shown in Figures 11-41 (e2) to (e4), during the title start period, the title character "6 people catch Bakuchu!" It was displayed at an enlarged size so that only the characters in the section were visible in the display area, and then reduced to a reduced size so that all characters were visible in the display area, and a background dedicated to displaying the title with the strongest reach of a low base was displayed. Sometimes, the pending display and active display that were displayed before the title start period are hidden, so that the pending display and active display can be hidden without any discomfort. In addition, when executing the low base strongest reach effect, by executing a monochrome display effect that displays the entire display area in a single color such as white, excluding the decorative pattern (small) of the reach mode, the display before the monochrome display effect can be executed. A configuration may also be adopted in which the pending display and active display that have been displayed are erased, and even in such a configuration, the pending display and active display can be hidden without causing any discomfort.

In the title display part of the low-base strongest reach performance, as shown in Figure 11-41 (e4), the title text "6 people catch Bakushu!" is placed in the fixed position with the expectation level suggestion display hidden. The displayed state is maintained for a predetermined period of time, and then, as shown in Figures 11-41 (e5) to (e6), a display indicating the level of expectation is displayed below the title characters "Six people to catch Bakuchu!" Display. At this time, as shown in FIG. 11-41 (e5), at the initial stage, all five star-shaped objects forming the expectation level suggestion display are displayed in black, and then, as shown in FIG. As shown in 41 (e6), by changing the color of 4.5 star-shaped objects corresponding to the low-base strongest reach effect from black to gold among the 5 star-shaped objects, the low-base strongest reach effect is achieved. The expectation level of jackpot is suggested. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the pending display, the active display, and the expectation level suggestion display from being confused.

[About the modification of the title display part]
FIG. 11-43 is a diagram showing the transition of images in a modified example of the title display part of the low base strong reach A performance, the low base strong reach B performance, the low base strong reach C performance, and the low base strongest reach performance.

When the performance control CPU 120 moves to the title display part of the corresponding super reach performance, first, as shown in FIG. 11-43 (f1), the display area is Executes a blackout effect that displays the entire screen in black. If the pending display and the active display are displayed before the execution of the blackout effect, the pending display and the active display are hidden when the blackout effect is started.

After continuing the blackout effect for a predetermined period of time, the effect control CPU 120 displays an expectation level suggestion display (see FIG. 11-43 (f2)) while maintaining the background of the entire display area in black. In step 43 (f2), a display indicating the degree of expectation of the low base strongest reach effect is displayed.

Next, the performance control CPU 120 maintains the state in which the background of the entire display area is displayed in black and the expectation level suggestion display is displayed for a predetermined period of time, and as shown in FIGS. 11-43 (f3) (f5), the corresponding super reach is displayed. The title characters of the performance (in FIGS. 11-43 (f3) and (f5), the title characters of the low base strongest reach performance) are displayed in a fixed position in a larger size than the expectation level suggestion display.

When the title characters of the corresponding super reach effect are all displayed in a fixed position, a part of the title characters are displayed in a manner overlapping with both the left and right decorative patterns (small) of the reach mode. As the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode, one of the numbers "1" to "9" ("2" in the figure) will be displayed. Regardless of whether the small) is a number from 1 to 9, part of the title character of the corresponding super reach effect when displayed in the fixed position is the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode. are displayed in an overlapping manner with both.

Further, the title characters are displayed in either a white format (FIG. 11-43 (f3)) or a red format (FIG. 11-43 (f5)). Whether the title characters are to be displayed in white or red is determined in the aforementioned step 131SGS609 during the variable display preview effect determination process. In the variable display preview performance determination process, if a variable pattern including execution of low base strong reach A performance, low base strong reach B performance, low base strong reach C performance, and low base strongest reach performance is identified, a jackpot will be awarded. Whether the title characters are displayed in white or red is determined by the probability depending on whether the title is present or not, and if the title characters are displayed in red, it is a jackpot. Whether to display the title characters in white or red is determined with a probability that the ratio is higher than the ratio of winning a jackpot when the title characters are displayed in white. Therefore, when the title characters are displayed in red in the title display part of the corresponding super reach performance, the expectation of a jackpot is higher than when the title characters are displayed in white.

Next, the performance control CPU 120 displays the expectation level suggestion display and the title characters of the corresponding super reach performance, and then displays the expectation level suggestion display and the corresponding super reach performance, as shown in FIGS. 11-43 (f4) and (f6). While maintaining the display of the title characters of the reach performance, a background corresponding to the title display part of the corresponding super reach performance is displayed, and a sound reading out the title is output from speakers 8L and 8R. On the other hand, in the title display part, the subtitles of the dialogue are not displayed as in the low base weak reach A performance and the low base weak reach B performance, and the audio of the dialogue is not output from the speakers 8L and 8R. Further, in the title display part, the title characters are displayed for a longer time than the time from when the blackout effect starts until the title characters are displayed (see FIGS. 11-47 and 11-48).

Next, the performance control CPU 120 causes the transition to the title end period. Note that the control of the title end period is the same as each of the above-mentioned super reach effects, so a description thereof will be omitted here.

In this way, in the modified example of the title display part, the title characters of the corresponding super reach effect are larger in size than the expectation level suggestion display, and the expected appearance depends on whether the appearance is white or red. Since the degree is suggested, it attracts the player's attention, but by displaying the expectation degree suggestion display before the title characters, it is possible to draw attention to the expectation degree suggestion first.

Also, as shown in Figure 11-43 (f2), whether the title characters are displayed in white or red, if the type of super reach effect is the same, the same format is used. An expectation level suggestion display is performed. Therefore, it is possible to draw attention to whether the appearance of the title characters after the expectation level suggestion display is white or red.

[About high base reach A to D effects]
FIG. 11-44 is a diagram showing the transition of images displayed on the image display device 5 during execution of high base reach performances A to D, and FIG. 11-44 shows the execution status of high base reach performances A to D. FIG. In addition, high base reach A to D productions are the same except that the expectations suggested by the type of enemy character appearing, the title name, and the expectation level suggestion display are different, so we will explain high base reach A production here. However, the explanation of the high base reach B to D effects will be omitted.

When the performance control CPU 120 receives the first variable display start command or the second variable display start command in the time saving state A or the variable probability state, and the fluctuation pattern corresponding to the high base super reach A is specified by the fluctuation pattern designation command. Then, as shown in FIG. 11-44 (g2), the decorative pattern (large) of the type specified by the variable display result designation command is displayed on the image display device 5 at a predetermined timing. A normal reach performance is executed in which the robot stops at the "left" and "right" decorative symbol display areas 5L and 5R and takes a reach mode. After that, the title display part of the high base reach A performance starts.

As shown in FIG. 11-45, the title display part of the high base reach A performance starts after part of the title characters “Battle Reach A” of the high base reach A performance is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5. The title start period until it is displayed in the position, the title display period in which the title characters "Battle Reach A" are displayed in the fixed position, and the title character "Battle Reach A" that was displayed in the fixed position disappears. This includes the title end period until switching to the introduction part.

When transitioning to the title display part of the high base reach A performance, the performance control CPU 120 first starts displaying the title start period.

During the title start period of the high base reach A effect, as shown in Figure 11-44 (g2), the title characters "Battle Reach A" are displayed while maintaining the display of the decorative patterns (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode. Display at an enlarged size such that only some characters are visible in the display area. At this time, the entire display area is displayed with a portion of the title characters "Battle Reach A". Further, the portion of the title character "Battle Reach A" displayed in the display area appears in a manner that overlaps with both the left and right decorative symbols (small) of the reach mode. After that, as shown in Figure 11-44 (g3), the title characters "Battle Reach A" are gradually reduced to a reduced size where all characters of the title characters "Battle Reach A" are visible in the display area. The title characters ``Battle Reach A'' are held still in a fixed position. When the title character "Battle Reach A" is reduced to a fixed position and remains stationary, a part of the title character "Battle Reach A" is displayed in a manner overlapping both the left and right decorative patterns (small) of the reach mode. Ru.

One of the numbers "1" to "9" ("2" in the figure) will be displayed as the decorative pattern (small) on the left and right sides of the reach mode, but the title of the high base reach A production will start. During the period, the title character "Battle Reach A" that appears in enlarged size will be used as the decoration on the left and right sides of the reach mode, regardless of whether the decorative pattern (small) on the left or right side of the reach mode is a number from "1" to "9". The title character "Battle Reach A" appears in a manner that overlaps both the symbols (small) and is displayed in a reduced size while stationary in a fixed position, and part of it is the decorative symbol (small) on the left and right side of the reach mode. are displayed in an overlapping manner with both.

As shown in Figures 11-44 (g1) to (g3), the time saved before the display area is completely filled with part of the enlarged title characters "Battle Reach A" The changing background (night sky background) of the decorative pattern (large) in state A or variable state is displayed in such a way that the entire display area is filled with part of the enlarged title letters "Battle Reach A". While there, the background changes to a special background for displaying the title of the high base reach A production (a background in which the ally character "Mumemu" and the enemy character "Maskman" are displayed on the left and right positions), and the title characters "Battle Reach A" are reduced. When the size is fixed at a fixed position, a background dedicated to displaying the title of the high base reach A effect is displayed as the background. In addition, the hold display and active display that were displayed before the display area was completely filled with part of the enlarged title letters "Battle Reach A" are replaced by the enlarged title letters "Battle Reach A". A" is hidden while the display area is completely filled with a portion of "A". Note that the display of the left and right decorative symbols (small) in the reach mode is maintained even after the title start period ends.

The performance control CPU 120 displays the title characters "Battle Reach A" in a reduced size at a fixed position during the title start period, and then shifts the display to the title display period. During the title display period of the high base reach A performance, first, as shown in Figure 11-44 (g3), the title characters "Battle Reach A" were displayed in a fixed position with the expectation level suggestion display hidden. This state is maintained for a predetermined period of time, and during that time, as shown in FIG. 11-45, the speakers 8L and 8R output a sound reading out the title. Next, as shown in FIGS. 11-44 (g4) to (g5), an expectation level suggestion display is displayed below the title characters "Battle Reach A" in a size smaller than the title characters "Battle Reach A". As shown in FIG. 11-45, the title display period of the high base reach A performance is executed for a longer time than the title start period of the high base reach A performance (see FIGS. 11-47 and 11-48).

After the title display period ends, the performance control CPU 120 shifts the display to the title end period. During the title end period of the high base reach A production, as shown in Figures 11-44 (g5) to (g6), the title characters "Battle Reach A" displayed in the fixed position in reduced size are replaced with the title characters "Battle Reach A". The display area is expanded until the entire display area is filled with a portion of "Reach A". In this case, instead of being enlarged in the opposite manner to the case where the title characters "Battle Reach A" are displayed in a reduced size during the title start period, the title characters "Battle Reach A" are displayed in a reduced size during the title start period. The title character "Battle Reach A" is enlarged until the entire display area is filled with a part of the title character "Battle Reach A" in a manner different from the reverse manner. In other words, the trajectory that each part of the title character takes as the title character "Battle Reach A" shrinks during the title start period is the same as the trajectory that each part of the title character takes as the title character "Battle Reach A" expands during the title end period. is different. Therefore, the display area is completely filled with part of the title characters "Battle Reach A" in a manner different from the manner in which the display area is completely filled at the start of the title start period. As shown in Figure 11-45, the title end period of the high base reach A effect ends in a shorter time than the title start period and title display period of the high base reach A effect (Figures 11-47 and 11-48 reference). In addition, as shown in Figure 11-45, in the title display part of the high base reach A performance, subtitles for dialogue are not displayed as in the low base weak reach A performance and the low base weak reach B performance, and the subtitles of the dialogue are not displayed on the speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the dialogue is also not output.

The performance control CPU 120 starts the introduction part of the high base reach A performance after the end of the title end period. As shown in Figures 11-44 (g3) to (g7), the background at the beginning of the introduction part of the high base reach A production (the background where the ally character "Yumemu" and the enemy character "Maskman" are fighting) differs from the background dedicated to the title display in the title display part (the background in which the ally character "Yumemu" and the enemy character "Maskman" are displayed on the left and right positions), the title character "Battle Reach A" is displayed during the title end period. After the background dedicated to title display is partially filled and the title end period ends, the background is switched to the background at the start of the introduction part of the high base reach A performance. The introductory part of the high base reach A production begins with a video scene where the ally character "Mumemu" and the enemy character "Maskman" are fighting. In addition, as shown in Figures 11-44 (g7) and 11-45, after the introduction part starts, the line ``Fight'' corresponding to the scene where the ally character ``Yumemu'' and the enemy character ``Maskman'' are fighting !” is displayed, and the audio of the lines displayed as the subtitles is output from the speakers 8L and 8R.

In this way, in the high base reach A production, while the title display part outputs the audio reading out the title from speakers 8L and 8R, the title display part does not display subtitles with dialogue corresponding to the scene of the title display part, and the title is read out from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the dialogue corresponding to the scene of the displayed part is also not output, and after the introduction part starts, subtitles of the dialogue according to the scene of the introduction part are displayed, and the sound of the dialogue corresponding to the scene of the introduction part is output from speakers 8L and 8R. The audio of the lines you respond to will be output.

The production control CPU 120 specifies a variation pattern that will be a jackpot after high base super reach A by the variation pattern specification command, and in the final stage of the introduction part, the ally character "Yumemu" will interact with the enemy character "Maskman". After winning the battle, the performance result of the high base reach A performance is a jackpot (it will be controlled to a jackpot gaming state), and then the image display device 5 is designated by a variable display result designation command. A combination of decorative patterns (large) indicating the type of jackpot won is displayed. On the other hand, if the fluctuation pattern specification command specifies a fluctuation pattern in which the reach is off after a high base super reach A, the ally character "Yumemu" is defeated by the enemy character "Maskman" at the end of the introduction part, and the high A performance result indicating that the base reach A performance is not a jackpot is notified, and then a combination of decorative patterns (large) indicating the type of reach failure specified by the variable display result designation command is displayed on the image display device 5. Display.

[About the display that suggests the level of expectation for high base reach A to D performances]
The expectation level suggestion display for high base reach A to D performances are the same except for the different expectations suggested by the expectation level suggestion display, so here we will explain the expectation level suggestion display for high base reach A performance, and An explanation of the display of expectation level suggestions for base reach B to D effects will be omitted.

In the title display part of the high base reach A performance, the image display device 5 displays the title characters "Battle Reach A" as well as an expectation level suggestion display in a size smaller than the title characters "Battle Reach A." The expectation level suggestion display displayed in the title display part is displayed above five star objects and the star object, as shown in Figure 11-44 (g5), and the star object indicates the expectation level. The number of star-shaped objects whose color changes from black to gold indicates the level of expectation among the five star-shaped objects. be.

In the time saving state A or the variable probability state where the high base reach A effect is executed, an object indicating the pending number and an object indicating the active display may be displayed on the image display device 5, and the pending display and the active display may be displayed in the title display part. If , and the expectation level suggestion display are displayed at the same time, there is a risk that the objects forming the pending display and the active display may be mistakenly recognized as the objects of the expectation level suggestion display. For this reason, in the title display part of the high base reach A performance where the expectation level suggestion display is displayed, the pending display and active display are configured by not displaying the pending display and active display at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display. This prevents the object from being mistakenly recognized as an object indicating the level of expectation.

In addition, in the time saving state A or the variable probability state, the game ball almost never enters the first starting prize opening, so if the number of reserved second special symbols is the maximum (4) and is being displayed variablely, the reserved A maximum of 5 objects may be displayed as display and active display, which corresponds to the number of objects that indicate the maximum expectation level in the expectation level suggestion display, but the In the title display part, the pending display and active display are not displayed at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display, so if the high base reach A effect is executed in a situation where up to 5 objects are displayed as the pending display and active display. However, it is possible to prevent objects displayed in the pending display and active display from being confused with objects in the expectation level suggestion display and being mistakenly recognized as having the maximum expectation level in the expectation level suggestion display.

In addition, when executing the high base reach A effect, only part of the title characters "Battle Reach A" is displayed during the title start period, as shown in Figure 11-44 (g1) to (g3). When the display is enlarged so that it is not visible in the area, and then reduced to a reduced size where all characters are visible in the display area, and a background dedicated to displaying the title of the high base reach A effect is displayed, the title start period Since the pending display and active display that were displayed before are hidden, the pending display and active display can be hidden without any discomfort. In addition, when executing the high base reach A effect, by executing a monochrome display effect that displays the entire display area in a single color such as white, except for the decorative pattern (small) of the reach mode, the display before the monochrome display effect can be executed. A configuration may also be adopted in which the pending display and active display that have been displayed are erased, and even in such a configuration, the pending display and active display can be hidden without causing any discomfort.

In the title display part of the high base reach A performance, as shown in Figure 11-44 (g3), the title characters "Battle Reach A" are displayed in the fixed position with the expectation level suggestion display hidden. The state is maintained for a predetermined period of time, and then, as shown in FIGS. 11-44 (g4) to (g5), an expectation level suggestion display is displayed below the title characters "Battle Reach A". At this time, as shown in Figure 11-44 (g4), at the initial stage, all five star-shaped objects forming the expectation level suggestion display are displayed in black, and then, as shown in Figure 11-44 (g4), As shown in 44 (g5), out of the five star-shaped objects, 3 correspond to the high base reach A effect (3.5 objects for the high base reach B effect, 4 objects for the high base reach C effect, By changing the color of the star-shaped objects (4.5 pieces in the reach D performance) from black to gold, the expectation level of a jackpot in the high base reach A performance is suggested. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the pending display, the active display, and the expectation level suggestion display from being confused.

[About the display position of title characters]
FIG. 11-46 is a diagram showing the position where title characters are displayed in the display area of the image display device 5. As shown in FIG.

As shown in FIGS. 11-46(A) and (B), the image display device 5 has a rectangular display area 5L, and since the game board 2 is arranged in front of the rectangular display area 5L, the image display device 5 The visible area in the display area 5L is an area that is visible from the opening 24 formed in the game board 2, that is, an area that is not covered by the members that constitute the game board 2.

As described above, the performance control CPU 120 displays the title character "Catch the Bakushu!" at a fixed position during the title display period of the title display part of the low base weak reach A performance. At this time, the fixed position where the title characters "Catch Bakchu!" is displayed is as shown in FIG. 11-46 (A), where the title characters "Catch Bakchu!" 5L, and as shown in FIG. 11-46(B), it is the largest rectangular area within the visible area of the image display device 5 that is not obstructed by the members of the game board 2. This position overlaps with the intersection of diagonal lines of a certain visible rectangular area 5S.

Similarly, the title text for the low base weak reach B production is "Bilibili Hockey Showdown", the title text for the low base strong reach A production is "Catch the Bakushu together!", and the title text for the low base strong reach B production is "Gekishaku". "Robo Battle", title text with low base strong reach C production, "Great Earthquake Robo Battle", title text with low base strongest reach production, "6 people catch Bakuchu!", title text with high base reach A production, "Battle Reach A" , the title characters "Battle Reach B" for the high base reach B production, the title characters "Battle Reach C" for the high base reach C production, and the title characters "Battle Reach D" for the high base reach D production. As shown in FIG. 11-46(A), the fixed position at which the title character is displayed during the title display period is the position where the title character overlaps the intersection of the diagonal lines of the display area 5L of the image display device 5. As shown in 11-46(B), the intersection of the diagonals of the visible rectangular area 5S, which is the largest rectangular area that is not obstructed by the members of the game board 2 within the visible area of the image display device 5. They are in overlapping positions.

Game machines are often subject to design changes during the development stage, and due to changes in the design of the game board 2, the area covered by the display area 5L of the image display device 5 by the members constituting the game board 2 changes. The visible area of the display area 5L may be changed. In addition, gaming machines installed at gaming parlors may be taken over, refurbished, and sold again, and in such cases, the design of the gaming board 2 may be changed and the parts that make up the gaming board 2 may be changed to the image display device 5. The area covered by the display area 5L may change, and the visible area of the display area 5L may be changed. In such a case, if the arrangement of the title characters in the super reach effect is determined based on the display area 5L of the image display device 5, there is a risk that the display position of the title characters will deviate greatly from the center of the visible area. .

In contrast, in this embodiment, in the title display part of any super reach effect, the fixed position where the title characters are displayed during the title display period is such that the title characters are located between the diagonals of the display area 5L of the image display device 5. This is a position that overlaps with the intersection, and also a position that overlaps with the intersection of diagonals of the visible rectangular area 5S, which is the largest rectangular area that is not obstructed by the members of the game board 2 within the visible area of the image display device 5. The title characters displayed at a fixed position during the title display period are displayed at a position that overlaps with both the intersections of the diagonals of the rectangular area 5S where the intersections of the diagonals of the display area 5L are visible. Even if the design of the game board 2 is changed when the machine is reused, the display position of the title characters can be prevented from being largely deviated from the center of the visible area.

[About the performance time of super reach performance]

[About expectation level suggestion display]
FIG. 11-50 is a diagram showing the execution status of the expectation level suggestion display in the title display part of the super reach effect.

The expectation level suggestion display displayed in the title display part is displayed above five star objects and the star object, as shown in Figure 11-50 (A), and the star object indicates the expectation level. The number of star-shaped objects whose color changes from black to gold indicates the level of expectation among the five star-shaped objects. be.

When performing the expectation level suggestion display, the performance control CPU 120 first displays five star-shaped objects in black, as shown in FIG. 11-50(A), and displays the star-shaped objects indicating the expectation level. After displaying the characters ``expectation level'' to indicate that the object is a certain object, a plurality of star-shaped objects that change from black to gold are gradually changed from black to gold in order from the left side. Furthermore, when changing a star-shaped object from black to gold, the performance control CPU 120 highlights the corresponding star-shaped object and then changes it to a normal display of gold.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 11-50(B), the production control CPU 120 enlarges and displays the star-shaped object whose color changes, changes its color to white so that it shines from the center to its periphery, and The entire enlarged object changes to white until it disappears, and then a star-shaped object with the entire object or half of it changed to gold is displayed. In particular, for the second to third star-shaped objects, a part of the enlarged star-shaped object is a part of the text "Expectation Level" to indicate that the star-shaped object indicates the level of expectation. Expand it to a size that overlaps with. Furthermore, the performance control CPU 120 performs highlighted display in a common manner both when changing from a black star-shaped object to the entire star-shaped object to gold, and when changing half of the star-shaped object to gold.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 11-50(A), when changing a plurality of star-shaped objects to gold, the production control CPU 120 waits until the highlighting of the star-shaped object that started highlighting first has finished. At a timing (t1) before the normal display, the highlighted display of the star-shaped object next to the star object is started. On the other hand, the production control CPU 120 does not start highlighting the star-shaped object that is two adjacent to it until the timing (t2) when the highlighting of the star-shaped object that has started highlighting first ends; At the timing (t2) when the highlighted display of the star-shaped object that started is completed, the highlighted display of the star-shaped object two adjacent stars is started. In other words, two adjacent star-shaped objects are highlighted at the same time, but three star-shaped objects are not highlighted at the same time.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 11-50(A), the production control CPU 120 outputs an expectation level suggestion sound from the speakers 8L and 8R at the timing when the highlighting of the star-shaped object starts, and also outputs the expectation level suggestion sound from the speakers 8L and 8R, and When changing an object to gold, the output of the expectation level suggestion sound that accompanies the highlighting of the star-shaped object that started highlighting first is ended before the highlighting of the next star-shaped object starts, and then the next star-shaped object is highlighted. The sound that suggests the level of expectation accompanying the highlighting of the star-shaped object is no longer overlapped with the output.

[About selection effects]
FIG. 11-51 is a diagram showing the execution status of the selection effect. The selection performance is any type of super when directly executing the low base strong reach A to C performance or the low base strongest reach performance without going through the low base weak reach A performance or the low base weak reach B performance from the normal reach performance. This is a performance that specifies whether the reach performance will be executed.

When the selection performance is executed, the performance control CPU 120 executes the normal reach performance as shown in FIG. 11-51 (h1), and then controls the image display device 5 as shown in FIG. 11-51 (h2). A window is displayed within the display area of , and the title of the selected performance is displayed within the window. In the title of the selection effect, the message "Upgrade your reach!" is displayed, suggesting that the selection effect will be executed.

Next, as shown in FIGS. 11-51 (h2) to (h8), the performance control CPU 120 displays the title image of the super reach performance in the window, a button image imitating the push button 31B, and continuous operation of the push button 31B. An operation promotion image consisting of operation promotion characters "Continuously press!" is displayed. The title image of the super reach effect is an image with the same content as the display content of the title display period in the title display part of each super reach effect, and the title images of the low base strong reach effects A to C and the low base strongest reach effect are , an expectation level suggestion display is also displayed.

The production control CPU 120 selects, as the title image of the super reach production displayed in the window, the title image of the low base weak reach A production, which has a jackpot expectation of 0 and has the lowest expectation of development to other super reach productions. is first displayed, and each time the push button 31B is operated a number of times corresponding to the title image of the displayed super reach effect, the super reach effect corresponding to the type of variation pattern specified by the variation pattern specification command is displayed. Switch to the title image of the next super reach effect until the title image is reached.

As shown in Figures 11-51 (h2) to (h8), the title image of the super reach effect displayed in the window is the low base weak reach effect A effect, which has the lowest expectations for development into other super reach effects. After the title image, the expectation of development to other super reach effects is higher than that of the low base weak reach A effect.The title image of the low base weak reach effect B has a higher expectation of a jackpot than the low base weak reach effects A and B effects. Title image of low base strong reach A performance, title image of low base strong reach B performance with higher jackpot expectation than low base strong reach A performance, low base strong reach with higher jackpot expectation than B performance The title image of the C performance is switched in the order of the title image of the low base strong reach performance, which has a higher jackpot expectation than the low base strong reach performance.

Then, when the title image of the super reach effect corresponds to the type of variation pattern specified by the variation pattern designation command, the effect control CPU 120 presses a push button a number of times corresponding to the title image of the displayed super reach effect. When the operation of 31B is detected, as shown in Figure 11-51 (h9), a confirmed image is displayed in which the operation promotion image disappears and only the title image of the super reach effect is displayed in the window. It is notified that the super reach performance of the title image will be executed, and then the transition is made to the title display part of the super reach performance.

As shown in Figure 11-52, the number of times the push button 3B is operated to switch from the title image of the low base weak reach A performance to the title image of the low base weak reach B performance is 3 times, and from the title image of the low base weak reach B performance to the title image of the low base weak reach B performance. The number of times the push button 31B is operated to switch to the title image for the low base strong reach A performance is 4, and the number of times the push button 31B is operated to switch from the title image for the low base strong reach A performance to the title image for the low base strong reach B performance is 8. The number of times the push button 31B was operated was 10 times to switch from the title image of the low base strong reach B effect to the title image of the low base strong reach C effect, and from the title image of the low base strong reach C effect to the title of the low base strongest reach effect. The number of operations of the push button 31B to switch to the image is 15 times, and the higher the developing attitude of the super reach effect of the title image to be switched to other super reach effects or the higher the jackpot expectation, the more necessary it is to switch to the next title image. This increases the number of times the push button 31B is operated, and it becomes necessary to operate the push button 31B many times.

In addition, as shown in Figure 11-52, when the selection effect is executed, the low base weak reach A and B effects are never executed, and the jackpot expectation level is always greater than the low base strong reach A effect. It has been confirmed that the super reach effect will be executed, and the proportion of low base strong reach effect A to be executed is approximately 32.18%, the proportion of low base strong reach B effect to be executed is approximately 30.16%, and low base strong reach effect is approximately 30.16%. The rate at which the strong reach C effect is executed is about 30.30%, and the rate at which the low base strongest reach effect is executed is about 7.36%.

In addition, the performance control CPU 120 will display an expectation level suggestion display in the same way as the title display part in the title image of the low base strong reach A to C performances and the low base strongest reach performance in the selected performance, but the title display In the expectation level suggestion display in the part, five star-shaped objects are displayed in black, and multiple star-shaped objects that change from black to gold are gradually changed from black to gold in order from the left side. , In the expectation level suggestion display displayed in the selected performance, out of the five star-shaped objects, the number of star-shaped objects indicating the expectation level of the corresponding super reach performance is displayed in a golden state from the beginning. .

The minimum time required to switch from the title image of the super reach effect displayed in the selected effect to the title image of the next super reach effect is the number of times corresponding to the title image of the super reach effect plus one press of the push button 31B. This is the time multiplied by the time required for the operation. The time required for one operation of the push button 31B is approximately 80 ms, and it is necessary to operate the push button 31B three times when switching from the title image of the low base weak reach A effect to the title image of the low base weak reach B effect. The minimum time required for this is approximately 240 ms.

On the other hand, in the expectation level suggestion display of the title display part, the time for the star-shaped object to change from black to gold after being highlighted, that is, the time for the suggested expectation level to change by one level, is approximately 300 ms, and the low base weak reach A It is set longer than the minimum time required to switch from the title image of the performance to the title image of the low base weak reach B performance. Therefore, in the selection performance, the performance control CPU 120 changes the title image of the low base weak reach A performance to the low base weak reach A performance in a time shorter than the time for the expectation level suggested in the expectation level suggestion display of the title display part to change by one level. It becomes possible to switch to the title image with weak reach B effect.

[About effects that can be executed during variable display]
FIG. 11-53 is a diagram showing effects that can be executed during variable display. As shown in FIG. 11-53, effects that can be executed during variable display include explanatory text display effects, title color change effects, and operation promotion effects A to D.

The explanatory text display performance is a performance that can be executed during the prologue display period in the title display part of the low base strong reach A to C performances, and is a performance that displays an explanatory text that suggests that the expectation of a jackpot is high.

The title color change performance is a performance that can be executed during the title display period in the title display part of the low base weak reach A performance and B performance, and is a performance that changes the color of the title characters from the original white to red or gold.

Operation promotion performance A is a performance that can be performed in the normal reach performance, displays an operation promotion image that prompts the operation of the push button 31B, and develops into the low base weak reach performance A and B in response to the operation of the push button 31B. This is a performance that announces whether or not it is true. In addition, in the operation promotion performance A, in response to the operation of the push button 31B, it is possible to develop not only the low base weak reach performance A and B performance, but also the low base strong reach performance A to C and the low base strongest reach performance. good.

Operation promotion performance B is a performance that can be executed at the end of the introduction part in the low base weak reach performances A and B, and displays an operation promotion image (small) or operation promotion image (large) that prompts the operation of the push button 31B. This is a performance that notifies whether or not the low base strong reach performance will develop into one of the low base strong reach performances A to C in response to the operation of the push button 31B. In addition, in a configuration in which a jackpot is announced as a performance result in the low base weak reach performances A and B, in the operation promotion performance B, the performance result as to whether or not it is a jackpot is notified in accordance with the operation of the push button 31B. It may also be used as a configuration.

Operation promotion performance C is a performance that can be executed in the middle of the introduction part of the low base strong reach A to C performances and the strongest reach performance, and displays an operation promotion image that prompts the operation of the push button 31B, and prompts the user to operate the push button 31B. This is an effect that displays one of a plurality of types of cut-in images depending on the cut-in image.

Operation promotion performance D is a performance that can be executed at the end of the introduction part in the low base weak reach performances A and B, and displays an operation promotion image (small) or operation promotion image (large) that prompts the operation of the push button 31B. This is a performance that notifies you of the performance result, whether or not it is a jackpot, in response to the operation of the push button 31B.

The performance control CPU 120 determines whether to execute the explanatory text display performance during variable display, whether to perform the title color change performance and to which color it should change, and whether to execute the operation promotion performance A. , whether to display the operation promotion image (small) or the operation promotion image (large) in the operation promotion effect B, whether to execute the operation promotion effect C, and the cut-in image (A) or the cut-in image (B) It is determined in the preview effect determination process of the variable display start setting process whether to display the operation promotion image (small) or the operation promotion image (large) in the operation promotion effect D.

As shown in FIG. 11-54 (A), in the preview effect determination process, when a variation pattern in which low base strong reach effects A to C are executed is specified, whether or not to execute the explanatory text display effect is determined. is determined. At this time, if a variation pattern that results in a negative performance result is identified, non-execution is determined at a rate of 80%, and execution is determined at a rate of 20%. Further, when a variation pattern in which the performance result is a jackpot is specified, non-execution is determined at a rate of 20%, and execution is determined at a rate of 80%. In this way, when a fluctuation pattern in which the performance result is a jackpot is identified, execution of the explanatory text display performance is determined at a higher rate than when a fluctuation pattern in which the performance result is a loss is identified, so the low base strong reach A The explanatory text display performance is executed during the prologue display period in the title display part of the ~C performance, thereby suggesting that there is a high possibility of a jackpot.

In addition, in this embodiment, the explanatory text display effect is executed during the prologue display period in the title display part, and regardless of whether or not the explanatory text display effect is executed in the title display part of the low base strong reach A to C effects. First, although the execution time of the low base strong reach A to C effects and the execution time of the title display part do not change, the first variation pattern is used as a variation pattern in which the low base strong reach A to C effects are executed. a second fluctuation pattern with a longer fluctuation time than the first fluctuation pattern, and when the first fluctuation pattern is specified, the explanatory text display effect is not executed and the second fluctuation pattern is specified. In this case, the explanatory text display effect may be executed using a variation time set longer than the first variation pattern. In such a configuration, it is not determined whether or not to execute the explanatory text display effect in the preview effect determination process, but whether the explanatory text display effect is specified depending on whether the first variation pattern or the second variation pattern is specified. It is determined whether or not to execute the display effect. At this time, by determining the first variation pattern and the second variation pattern so that when the explanatory text display effect is executed, the expectation level of jackpot is higher than when the explanatory display effect is not executed, the low base strong reach The explanatory text display performance is executed in the title display part of the A to C performances, suggesting that there is a high possibility of a jackpot.

As shown in FIG. 11-54 (B), in the preview effect determination process, when a variation pattern in which low base weak reach A and B effects are executed is specified, whether or not to execute the title color change effect is determined. Also, when executing the title color change effect, it is determined which color to change to. At this time, if a variation pattern in which the production result is off is identified, non-execution (white) is determined at a rate of 80%, execution (red) is determined at a 20% rate, and execution (gold) is determined at a rate of 20%. Not determined. In addition, if a variation pattern that develops into a low base strong reach A to C effect or a low base strongest reach effect is identified, 20% of the time it will not be executed (white), and 75% of the time it will be executed (red ) is determined, and execution (money) is determined at a rate of 5%. In this way, when a variation pattern that develops into a low base strong reach A to C production or a low base strongest reach production is identified, the title color change production is executed at a higher rate than when a variation pattern that deviates from the production is identified. Since it has been decided that the color of the title letters will change in the title display part of the low base strong reach A and B performances, there is a high possibility that it will develop into the low base strong reach A to C performances and the low base strongest reach performance. It is suggested. In addition, execution (Friday) is determined only when a fluctuation pattern that develops into the low base strong reach A to C effects and the low base strongest reach effect is identified, so in the title display part of the low base strong reach A and B effects, By changing the color of the title letters to gold, it is confirmed that the low base strong reach A to C production will develop into the low base strongest reach production.

In addition, in a configuration that includes a fluctuation pattern that results in a jackpot without developing into another super reach performance after execution of the low base weak reach effects A and B, if a fluctuation pattern that results in a jackpot is identified, a variation that results in a loss. It is decided to execute the title color change effect at a higher rate than when a pattern is identified, and the color of the title letters changes in the title display part of the low base strong reach A and B effects, indicating that there is a high possibility of a jackpot. may be suggested. In addition, in such a configuration, execution (gold) is determined only when a fluctuation pattern that results in a jackpot is identified, and the color of the title letters changes to gold in the title display part of the low base strong reach A and B effects. The jackpot may be confirmed by doing so.

As shown in Figure 11-54 (C), in the preview performance determination process, when a variation pattern that deviates from the normal reach performance or a variation pattern that develops from the normal reach performance to the low base weak reach performances A and B is identified. , it is determined whether or not to execute the operation promotion effect A. At this time, if a variation pattern that results in an error is identified, non-execution is determined 50% of the time, and execution is determined 50% of the time. Further, when a variation pattern that develops into low base weak reach A and B performances is specified, execution is determined at a rate of 100%. In this way, execution is always decided when a variation pattern that develops into low base weak reach A and B effects is identified, and execution may also be decided when a variation pattern that is out of reach is identified. , it is suggested that when the operation promotion performance A is executed in the normal reach performance, it may develop into low base weak reach performances A and B.

As shown in Figure 11-54 (D), in the preview performance determination process, there is a variation pattern in which the performance results of the low base weak reach A and B performances are off, and a low base strong reach from the low base weak reach A and B performances. When a variation pattern that develops into the A to C performances and the low base strongest reach performance is specified, it is determined which of the operation promotion image (small) or operation promotion image (large) is to be displayed. At this time, if a deviation pattern is identified, the operation promotion image (small) is determined at a rate of 90%, and the operation promotion image (large) is determined at a rate of 10%. In addition, if a variation pattern that develops into a low base strong reach A to C effect or a low base strongest reach effect is identified, an operation promotion image (small) will be determined at a rate of 10%, and an operation promotion image will be promoted at a rate of 90%. The image (large) is determined. In this way, when a variation pattern that develops into a low base strong reach A to C effect or a low base strongest reach effect is identified, the operation promotion image (small) is used at a higher rate than when a deviation pattern is identified. Since the operation promotion image (large) is determined among the operation promotion images (large) and the operation promotion image (large), the operation promotion image (large) is displayed in the operation promotion performance B at the end of the introduction part in the low base weak reach A and B performances. In this case, it is suggested that the possibility of developing into the low base strong reach performances A to C and the low base strongest reach performance is higher than when the operation promotion image (small) is displayed.

As shown in FIG. 11-54 (E), in the preview performance determination process, when a variation pattern in which the low base strong reach performances A to C and the low base strongest reach performance are specified, the operation promotion performance C It is determined whether to execute the cut-in image (A) or the cut-in image (B) when the operation promotion effect C is executed. At this time, if a variation pattern that results in a different performance result is identified, 50% of the time it will be decided not to execute it, 30% of the time it will be decided to execute it (cut-in image (A)), and 20% of the time it will be decided not to execute it. Execution (cut-in image (B)) is determined based on the ratio. In addition, when a variation pattern in which the production result is a jackpot is identified, non-execution is decided at a rate of 5%, execution (cut-in image (A)) is decided at a rate of 30%, and execution is decided at a rate of 65%. Execution (cut-in image (B)) is determined. In this way, when a fluctuation pattern in which the performance result is a jackpot is identified, the execution of the operation promotion performance C is determined at a higher rate than when a fluctuation pattern in which the performance result is a loss is identified, so the low base strong reach A The operation promotion performance C is executed at the end of the introduction part in the ~C performance, which suggests that there is a high possibility of winning the jackpot. In addition, when a fluctuation pattern that results in a jackpot is identified, a higher percentage of the cut-in image (A) and cut-in image (B) than when a fluctuation pattern that results in a loss is identified. B) is displayed, so when the operation promotion performance C is executed at the end of the introduction part in the low base strong reach performance A to C and the cut-in image (B) is displayed, the cut-in image (A) is displayed. This suggests that there is a higher possibility of hitting the jackpot than if the player were to win the jackpot.

As shown in FIG. 11-54 (F), in the preview performance determination process, when a variation pattern in which the low base strong reach effects A to C and the low base strongest reach effect are specified, the operation promotion image ( It is determined whether to display the operation promotion image (small) or the operation promotion image (large). At this time, if a variation pattern that results in a negative performance result is identified, an operation promotion image (small) is determined at a rate of 90%, and an operation promotion image (large) is determined at a rate of 10%. Further, when a variation pattern in which the performance result is a jackpot is specified, an operation promotion image (small) is determined at a rate of 10%, and an operation promotion image (large) is determined at a rate of 90%. In this way, when a variation pattern that results in a jackpot is identified, a higher percentage of operation promotion images (small) and operation promotion images (large) are selected than when a variation pattern that results in a loss is identified. Since the image (large) is determined, when the operation promotion image (large) is displayed in the operation promotion performance D at the end of the introduction part in the low base strong reach performances A to C and the low base strongest reach performance, the operation promotion image (large) is displayed. It is suggested that the possibility of winning the jackpot is higher than when the image (small) is displayed.

[About explanatory text display]
FIG. 11-55 is a diagram showing the display status of the explanatory text displayed in the explanatory text display effect, and FIG. 11-56 is a timing chart showing the display status of the explanatory text displayed in the explanatory text display effect. .

The performance control CPU 120 displays the ally character "Yumemu" as shown in FIGS. 11-55 (A) to (I) during the prologue display period of the title display part in the low base strong reach A to C performances. After that, the ally character "Yumemu" is enlarged and displayed until the entire display area is filled, and when an explanatory text is displayed during the prologue display period, the ally character "Yumemu" is enlarged and displayed in front of the background. Display the explanatory characters ``Surprise!'', ``Peach Tree'', and ``Big Lucky!'' that make up the explanatory text in order on the layer. At this time, the performance control CPU 120 first displays the explanatory characters "Surprise!" while moving them leftward at high speed from the right side of the display area toward the center, as shown in FIG. 11-55 (A). 11-56 (t1)), as shown in Figure 11-55 (B), when it is moved near the center, it is displayed while moving to the left at low speed (Figure 11-56 (t2)), and then , as shown in FIG. 11-55(C), it is displayed again while moving leftward at high speed until it disappears from the display area (FIG. 11-56(t3)).

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-55(D), the performance control CPU 120 displays the explanatory characters "Peach Tree" while moving them leftward at high speed from the right side of the display area toward the center (FIG. 11-55(D)). -56 (t4)), as shown in Figure 11-55 (E), when it is moved near the center, it is displayed while moving to the left at low speed (Figure 11-56 (t5)), and then, As shown in FIG. 11-55 (F), it is displayed again while moving leftward at high speed until it disappears from the display area (FIG. 11-56 (t6)).

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-55(G), the performance control CPU 120 displays the explanatory characters "Big Lucky!" while moving them leftward at high speed from the right side of the display area toward the center (FIG. 11-55(G)). -56 (t7)), as shown in Figure 11-55 (H), when it is moved near the center, it is displayed while moving to the left at low speed (Figure 11-56 (t8)), and then, As shown in FIG. 11-55 (I), it is displayed again while moving leftward at high speed until it disappears from the display area (FIG. 11-56 (t9)).

[About title color change effect]
FIG. 11-57 is a diagram showing the execution status of the title color change effect, and FIG. 11-58 is a diagram showing the timing at which the color of the title characters changes in the title color change effect.

The performance control CPU 120 can execute a title color change performance that changes white title characters to red or gold in the title display part of the low base weak reach A and B performances.

In the title display part of the low base weak reach A and B performances, the production control CPU 120 causes a part of the white title characters to appear from the left side of the display area during the title start period, move them toward the home position, and move them toward the home position. Make it stand still. Thereafter, during the title display period, the performance control CPU 120 displays the white title characters in a fixed position as shown in FIG. 11-57(A). Then, when the execution of the title color change effect has not been determined, the effect control CPU 120 outputs a specific sound from the speakers 8L and 8R after the time t1 has elapsed from the start of the title display period, and outputs the specific sound from the speakers 8L and 8R, as shown in FIG. -57 (B) (C) As shown in (B) and (C), the white title character is kept stationary in the fixed position, and then the white title character displayed in the fixed position is moved from the fixed position during the title end period. Move the title characters to the right side of the display area until all of the title characters disappear.

On the other hand, when the execution of the title color change effect is determined, the effect control CPU 120 outputs a specific sound from the speakers 8L and 8R after the time t1 has elapsed from the start of the title display period, and also outputs the specific sound from the speakers 8L and 8R as shown in FIG. As shown in -57 (D), if the title characters displayed in a fixed position are changed to appear to glow, and after the time t2 has elapsed, it is determined that the title characters will change to red. As shown in Figure 11-57 (E), the title characters are changed to red, and if the change to gold is determined, the title characters are changed to gold, as shown in Figure 11-57 (F). After that, the title characters are moved from the regular position to the right side of the display area until all the title characters disappear while maintaining the changed color displayed at the regular position during the title end period. When the title characters are changed from a glowing appearance to red or gold, the title characters change to red or gold when the light on the title characters becomes clear.

As shown in Figures 11-58 (A) and (B), in the low base weak reach A and B effects, the presentation time T1 of the title start period of the title display part is 500ms, the presentation time T2 of the title display period is 2200ms, and the title end. The presentation time T3 of the period is set to 300 ms, and the time t1 from the start of the title display period until the title characters change to appear to glow is 800 ms. The time t2 from which the title characters change to red or gold after changing to a visible mode is set to 200 ms, and the time t3 from which the title characters change to red or gold until the title display period ends is set to 1200 ms. There is.

Therefore, as shown in Figure 11-58 (C), when the color of the title character changes from white to red or gold, the time (t1) at which the title character is displayed in white during the title display period Also, during the title display period, the time (t3) during which the title characters are displayed in red or gold after the change is longer than the time (T1+t1) during which the title characters are displayed in white in the title display part. Also, the time (t3+T3) during which the title characters are displayed in the changed red or gold color in the title display part is longer.

[About operation promotion performance A]
FIG. 11-59 is a diagram showing the execution status of operation promotion effect A.

The performance control CPU 120 can execute an operation promotion performance A that prompts the operation of the push button 31B in the normal reach performance.

When the performance control CPU 120 has decided to execute the operation promotion performance A, as shown in FIGS. , an operation promotion image (small) consisting of a button image (small) imitating the push button 31B and operation promotion characters (small) "Press!" urging operation of the push button 31B is displayed.

A remaining time meter is formed on the button image (small) and indicates the remaining time of the valid period in which the operation of the push button 31B is valid. When the operation of the push button 31B is detected or the remaining amount of time on the remaining time meter becomes 0, in the case of a fluctuation pattern that develops into low base weak reach A and B effects, as shown in Figure 11-59 (C) , a white-out effect is executed to display the entire display area in white, and then, as shown in FIG. 11-59(D), low base weak reach A and B effects are executed.

On the other hand, in the case of a variation pattern that results in a miss, the performance control CPU 120 erases the operation promotion image (small) and stops the decorative pattern (large) in a miss state, as shown in FIG. 11-59 (E). let

[About operation promotion performance B]
FIG. 11-60 is a diagram showing the execution status of operation promotion effect B.

In the low base weak reach performances A and B, the performance control CPU 120 can execute an operation promotion performance B that prompts the operation of the push button 31B at the end of the introduction part.

When it is decided to execute the operation promotion effect B and it is decided to display the operation promotion image (small), the effect control CPU 120 executes the introduction part as shown in FIG. 11-60(A). At the end of the process, an operation promotion image (small) consisting of a button image (small) imitating the push button 31B and operation promotion characters (small) "Press!" urging operation of the push button 31B is displayed.

In addition, when it has been decided to execute the operation promotion effect B and it has been decided to display the operation promotion image (large), the effect control CPU 120 controls the effect shown in FIGS. 11-60 (B) and (C). This is an image imitating the push button 31B at the end of the introduction part, with a button image (large) larger in size than the button image (small) and operation promotion letters (large) that prompt the operation of the push button 31B: "Press! ” Displays an operation promotion image (large). At this time, as shown in FIG. 11-60(B), the production control CPU 120 displays a plurality of button images (large) with transparent backgrounds, unlike the case where the operation promotion image (small) is displayed. After performing a promotion introduction effect in which these multiple button images (large) are combined into one button image (large), the button image (large) and the operation promotion text (large) that urges the operation of the push button 31B "Press!" Display an operation promotion image (large) consisting of:

A remaining time meter is formed in both the button image (small) and the button image (large), and the performance control CPU 120 detects the operation of the push button 31B until the remaining time meter reaches 0. Or, when the remaining amount of time on the remaining time meter reaches 0, in the case of a variation pattern that develops into a low base strong reach effect A to C and a low base strongest reach effect, the operation as shown in Figure 11-60 (D). The promotion image (small) or the operation promotion image (large) is erased, a falling effect is performed in which the movable body 32 falls, and then, as shown in FIG. 11-60(E), the low base strong reach A to C is performed. Performance, execute low base strongest reach performance.

On the other hand, in the case of a deviation pattern, the performance control CPU 120 erases the operation promotion image (small) or the operation promotion image (large) and erases the entire display area, as shown in FIG. 11-60 (F). After that, as shown in FIG. 11-60(G), a failure is announced as a result of the effect.

[About operation promotion performance C]
FIG. 11-61 is a diagram showing the execution status of the operation promotion effect C.

The performance control CPU 120 can execute an operation promotion performance C that prompts the user to operate the push button 31B in the middle of the introduction part in the low base strong reach performances A to C and the low base strongest reach performance.

When execution of the operation promotion performance C is determined, the performance control CPU 120 displays a button image (small size) imitating the push button 31B in the middle of the introduction part, as shown in FIGS. ) and operation prompting characters (small) "Press!" prompting the user to operate the push button 31B.

The effect control CPU 120 is determined to display the cut-in image (A), and if the operation of the push button 31B is detected before the remaining time meter reaches 0, the CPU 120 displays the cut-in image (A) in FIG. 11-61 ( As shown in Figure 11-61 (F), after erasing the operation promotion image (small) and displaying the cut-in image (A) in which the ally character "Nana" is displayed, as shown in Figure 11-61 (F). , carry out the continuation of the introductory part.

In addition, the production control CPU 120 has been determined to display the cut-in image (B), and if the operation of the push button 31B is detected before the remaining time meter reaches 0, then as shown in FIG. As shown in Figure 11-61(D), after the operation promotion image (small) is erased and the cut-in image (B) in which the ally character "Jam" is displayed is displayed, as shown in Figure 11-61(F). , continue the introductory part.

In addition, the production control CPU 120 controls the remaining time meter whether it is determined to display the cut-in image (A) or when it is determined to display the cut-in image (B). If no operation of the push button 31B is detected before the remaining amount reaches 0, the operation promotion image (small) is deleted while the middle part of the introduction part continues to be played, as shown in Figure 11-61(E). Then, as shown in FIG. 11-61(F), the continuation of the introduction part is executed.

[About operation promotion performance D]
FIG. 11-62 is a diagram showing the execution status of the operation promotion effect D.

The performance control CPU 120 can execute an operation promotion performance D that prompts the user to operate the push button 31B at the end of the introduction part in the low base strong reach performances A to C and the low base strongest reach performance.

When it is determined that the operation promotion image (small) is to be displayed, the performance control CPU 120 displays a button that imitates the push button 31B at the end of the introduction part, as shown in FIGS. 11-62 (A) and (B). An operation promotion image (small) consisting of a button image (small) and operation promotion characters (small) "Press!" urging operation of the push button 31B is displayed.

In addition, when it is determined that the operation promotion image (large) is to be displayed, the performance control CPU 120 presses the push button 31B at the end of the introduction part, as shown in FIGS. 11-62 (A) and (G). Displays an operation promotion image (large) that is a simulated image and consists of a button image (large) that is larger in size than the button image (small) and operation promotion characters (large) that prompt the user to operate the push button 31B, ``Press!'' let At this time, unlike the case where the operation promotion image (small) is displayed, the production control CPU 120 displays a plurality of button images (large) whose backgrounds are transparent, and these plural button images (large) are combined into one button. After performing a promotion introduction effect that is organized into images (large) (see Figure 11-60 (B)), a button image (large) and operation promotion characters (large) urging the user to operate the push button 31B are made, ``Press!'' Display the operation promotion image (large).

In the case of a fluctuation pattern in which a jackpot is reached if the operation of the push button 31B is detected before the remaining amount of the remaining time meter becomes 0, or the remaining amount of the remaining time meter becomes 0, As shown in 11-62(C)(H), a rainbow effect is executed in which the operation promotion image (small) or operation promotion image (large) gradually disappears and a rainbow-colored pattern swirls over the entire display area, and then , as shown in FIGS. 11-62(D) and (I), a jackpot is announced as a performance result.

On the other hand, in the case of a deviation pattern, the performance control CPU 120 erases the operation promotion image (small) or the operation promotion image (large), as shown in FIGS. 11-62 (E) and (J). A darkening effect is executed to darken the entire display area, and then, as shown in FIGS. 11-62(F) and (K), a failure is notified as a result of the effect.

[About operation promotion images]
FIG. 11-63 is a diagram showing a display mode of the operation promotion image. The performance control CPU 120 displays the button images constituting the operation promotion image (small) and the operation promotion image (large) while alternately and continuously moving in the left and right directions, as shown in FIG. 11-63 (A). At the same time, the button is displayed while continuously changing between a state in which the button is not pressed and a state in which the button is pressed. At this time, as shown in Figure 11-63(B), the interval at which the button image moves in the horizontal direction and the interval at which the button changes from not being pressed to being pressed are different, and the button image The motion of moving in the left-right direction and the motion of changing the state in which the button is not pressed and the state in which the button is pressed are not synchronized, resulting in a complicated movement.

[About the jackpot start performance]
FIG. 11-64 is a diagram showing the execution status of the jackpot start effect.

As shown in FIG. 11-64(A), the production control CPU 120 stops the decorative pattern (large) in the jackpot mode, and then issues a jackpot start designation command that specifies display of a production image indicating the start of the jackpot game state. When received, a jackpot start effect is executed.

The effect control CPU 120 causes the image display device 5 to display an image that moves like a flickering flame as the background during the jackpot start effect, as shown in FIGS. As shown in Figure 11-64 (B), first the first half of the title character "BIG (REG)" of the jackpot title character "BIG BONUS (REG BONUS)" is displayed in an enlarged size, and then As shown in C), the first half of the title character "BIG (REG)" is gradually reduced until it reaches a reduced size where the entirety is visible in the display area, and is displayed at a fixed position above the center of the display area.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-64 (D), the performance control CPU 120 displays the second half of the title characters "BONUS" of the title characters "BIG BONUS (REG BONUS)" of the jackpot title in an enlarged size. After that, as shown in Figure 11-64 (E), the second half of the title character "BONUS" is gradually reduced to a reduced size that makes it visible in its entirety in the display area, and then moved to a fixed position near the center of the display area. Display it at the bottom (below the first half of the title "BIG").

In this embodiment, when starting a jackpot game state where the jackpot type is 6 rounds, "REG BONUS" is displayed as the title character, and when starting a jackpot game state where the jackpot type is 10 rounds, Display "BIG BONUS" as the title text.

Next, as shown in FIGS. 11-64 (E) to (G), the performance control CPU 120 displays the entire title character "BIG BONUS" in a fixed position, and then gradually enlarges the title character "BIG BONUS". Then, as shown in FIG. 11-64(H), the jackpot performance is started and the display on the image display device 5 is switched to the background of the jackpot game state.

When the production control CPU 120 starts the jackpot production, first, as shown in FIG. Display the hitting promotion image (small).

The right-hitting promotion image (small) is composed of a message "Right-hitting" (small) that urges an operation to launch the game ball toward the right gaming area 2R, and an arrow image (small) indicating the right direction, and is used for production control. As shown in FIGS. 11-64 (H) and (I), the CPU 120 displays a right-hand hitting promotion image (small) from the upper right of the display area over a period from the start of the jackpot performance until the end of the jackpot game state. Display it at the position.

The right-handed hitting promotion image (large) is a message that urges an operation to launch the game ball toward the right playing area 2R, and the message "Right-handed hitting" (large), which is larger than the right-handed hitting promotion image (small), and the right It is an arrow that indicates a direction and is composed of an arrow image (large) that is larger in size than the arrow image (small), and the performance control CPU 120 is configured to detect the jackpot as shown in FIGS. 11-64 (H) and (I). A right-handed hitting promotion image (large) is repeatedly displayed in a manner of moving from the left side to the right side of the display area only for the first certain period of time after the start of the medium performance until the end of the jackpot game state.

In addition, when the jackpot game state is controlled, after the title character is displayed in the jackpot start performance, it is switched to the jackpot middle performance, and the operation method for the jackpot game state (operation method for launching the game ball toward the right game area 2R) ) A right-handed hitting promoting image (small) and a right-handed hitting promoting image (large) are displayed. At this time, the performance control CPU 120 is operated on the main board 11 side at a timing a predetermined time before the timing at which control is performed that is advantageous by operating the game ball in an operation method that launches the game ball toward the right game area 2R. Switch to the jackpot performance and display a right-handed hitting promotion image (small) and a right-handed hitting promotion image (large). For this reason, it is advantageous to operate the game ball in an operation method that launches the game ball toward the right gaming area 2R after a predetermined period of time has passed since the right-handed hitting promotion image (small) and the right-handed hitting promotion image (large) were displayed. Control will be implemented.

In addition, after the title character is displayed in the jackpot start performance, the performance control CPU 120 controls the title in the title display part of the super reach performance when the jackpot start performance is ended, the title character is erased, and the next performance is switched. To erase the title characters of a jackpot start performance and switch to the next performance in a shorter time than when the title characters are erased during the end period.

In particular, after the title character is displayed in the jackpot start performance, the performance control CPU 120 switches to the mid-jackpot performance in one frame (minimum unit of image update), and displays a right-handed hitting promotion image (small) and a right-handed hitting promotion image. (Large) is displayed. In the title display part of the super reach performance, the title end period is set instead of one frame, and the title characters are erased over a certain amount of time. , and when displaying an image promoting right-handed hitting (small) and an image promoting right-handed hitting (large), if the title character is similarly configured to be erased over a certain amount of time, the title character will be erased. During some period of time, there is a risk that the game ball will be operated in an operation method that launches the game ball toward the right game area 2R, but if you launch the game ball toward the right game area 2R at this timing, the game ball will still be launched toward the right game area 2R. Since the control that is advantageous by operating with the operating method of launching the ball toward the area 2R has not started, the game ball will be wasted. On the other hand, after the title character is displayed in the jackpot start performance, the performance control CPU 120 switches to the mid-jackpot performance in one frame (minimum unit of image update), and displays the right-hitting promotion image (small) and the right-hitting promotion image (small). Since the promotion image (large) is displayed, it is possible to suppress the generation of useless game balls.

[About the display of the number of remaining spins until play time]
When the game control microcomputer 100 performs variable display 900 times without being controlled by jackpot in a low accuracy state, (1) time saving control is performed 1100 times, and (2) low accuracy control is performed. The time saving state B is controlled to be performed 1100 times (in this embodiment, the play time is performed 1100 times).

In addition, the performance control CPU 120 displays the remaining number of times to reach rescue time saving (hereinafter referred to as the remaining number of times until play time) 131SG005Z, which is the remaining variable display number until the image display device 5 is controlled to the time saving state B (play time). (See Figure 11-1) can be displayed.

As shown in FIG. 11-65(A), the performance control CPU 120 executes the normal reach performance, low base weak reach A, B performance, low base strong reach A to C performance, and low base strongest reach performance in the normal state. If the game is not running, the remaining number of play times will be displayed at the top left of the display area. The remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z is displayed as "XXX times remaining" (XXX is a numerical value from 0 to 900 depending on the remaining number of times). At this time, regardless of whether the number of times remaining until play time is 0 to 900, the number of times remaining until play time 131SG005Z is displayed in characters of the same font size.

As shown in FIG. 11-65(B), the performance control CPU 120 continues to display the remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z even during the execution of the normal reach performance in which the decorative pattern (large) is in the ready-to-reach mode.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 11-65 (C), when the normal reach performance develops into the low base weak reach performances A and B, the performance control CPU 120 also controls the performance during execution of the low base weak reach performances A and B. Continue to display the remaining number of times until the time 131SG005Z. At this time, as shown in FIGS. 11-65(D) and (E), when a loss is reported as a result of the low base weak reach A and B performances, the performance control CPU 120 controls the low base weak reach A. , The remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z continues to be displayed even after the B effect ends.

In addition, the configuration is such that a jackpot can be announced as a result of the low base weak reach A and B performances, and when a jackpot is announced as a result of the low base weak reach A and B performances, the low base weak reach A and B The remaining number of times until the play time 131SG005Z is continuously displayed until the performance ends, and the remaining number of times until the play time 131SG005Z is erased at the end of the low base weak reach A and B performances. Incidentally, the remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z may be erased at the time when content that confirms a jackpot is displayed as a result of the low base weak reach A and B performances.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 11-65 (F), the performance control CPU 120 is configured to control the performance when the normal reach performance, low base weak reach A, B performance develops into low base strong reach A to C performance, and low base strongest reach performance. Then, with the start of the low base strong reach performance A to C and the low base strongest reach performance, the remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z is erased. At this time, the production control CPU 120 erases the remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z at the timing when the selection production starts when the production progresses from the normal reach production, and when the production progresses from the low base weak reach production A and B. , If it is a low base strong reach effect A to C, during the prologue display period of the title display part, the remaining number of play times 131SG005Z will be erased along with the pending display and active display, and if it is a low base strongest reach effect, the title will be displayed. At the start of the part, the remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z is erased.

In addition, when developing from the low base weak reach effects A and B, the hold display and activation will occur at the timing when the falling effect starts (timing shown in Figure 11-60 (D)) as the operation promotion effect B is executed. It is also possible to have a configuration in which the remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z is erased along with the display. As a result, regardless of whether it develops into a low base strong reach A to C effect or a low base strongest reach effect, the timing for erasing the stay display, active display, and number of remaining times until play time 131SG005Z can be made the same. .

Thereafter, when a failure is reported as a result of the low base strong reach performance A to C and the low base strongest reach performance, the performance control CPU 120 controls the low base reach performance as shown in FIGS. 11-65 (G) and (H). After the strong base reach A to C performances and the low base strongest reach performance are finished, the remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z is displayed again. On the other hand, when a jackpot is announced as a result of the low base strong reach A to C performances or the low base strongest reach performance, the performance control CPU 120 controls the next time as shown in FIGS. 11-65(I)(J). , the remaining number of play times 131SG005Z remains erased until the normal state is reached.

In addition, if operation promotion performance A is configured to develop into low base strong reach performances A to C and low base strongest reach performance according to the operation of the push button 31B, during execution of operation promotion performance A, the play time It is sufficient to continue displaying the remaining number of times until the play time 131SG005Z and erase the remaining number of times until the play time 131SG005Z with the start of the low base strong reach A to C effects and the low base strongest reach effect. In such a configuration, in the operation promotion performance A, the remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z is displayed, while the subsequent operation promotion performances in the low base strong reach A to C performances and the low base strongest reach performance In C and D, the remaining number of times until play time 131SG005Z is not displayed.

[About play time start performance]
The game control microcomputer 100 controls to the time saving state B (play time) when variable display is performed 900 times without being controlled by jackpot in a low probability state. At this time, as shown in FIG. 11-66(C), the game control microcomputer 100 lights up the right-handed lamp 131SG132 and sends a right-handed LED lighting notification command, and then the performance control CPU 120 As shown in Figures 11-66 (A) and (B), when the variable display stops when the remaining number of play times is 0, and the right-handed LED lighting notification command is received, Figure 11-66 (C) As shown in , a right-hitting promotion image (small) is displayed that prompts the user to launch the game ball toward the right gaming area 2R. The timing of lighting up the right-handed playing lamp 131SG132 and the timing of displaying the right-handed playing promotion image (small) are almost the same time, but the game control microcomputer 100 lights up the right-handed playing lamp 131SG132 and then displays the right-handed playing promotion image (small). The LED lighting notification command is sent, and the performance control CPU 120 accordingly displays the right-handed hitting promotion image (small), so the right-handed hitting lamp 131SG132 lights up before the right-handed hitting promotion image (small) is displayed. becomes.

When the game control microcomputer 100 starts the time saving state B (play time), it keeps the right-handed lamp 131SG132 lit until the time saving state B (play time) ends. In addition, the right-hitting promotion image (small) is composed of a message "right-handed hitting" (small) that urges an operation to launch the game ball toward the right gaming area 2R, and an arrow image (small) indicating the right direction. As shown in FIGS. 11-66 (C) to (H), the performance control CPU 120 displays the right-handed hitting promotion image when the time-saving state B (play time) starts, until the time-saving state B (play time) ends. (Small) is displayed in a position closer to the upper right of the display area.

When the variable display stops when the number of times remaining until the play time is 0 and the production control CPU 120 receives a game state designation command that designates the time saving state B (play time), the CPU 120 for controlling the performance changes from FIG. 11-66 (D) to As shown in (G), a play time start effect is executed.

The play time start effect includes a title start period from when a part of the title characters "Enter play time" is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 until it is displayed at a fixed position, and a title character "Enter play time". The title display period includes a title display period in which the title characters "Run in" are displayed at a fixed position, and a title end period until the display of the title characters "Enter in play time" which had been displayed in the fixed position disappears and the display switches to play time production.

The performance control CPU 120 displays the title character "6" during the title start period, title display period, and title end period of the play time start performance, and the title display period, title display period, and title end period of the title display part of the low base strongest reach performance. The title character ``Enter play time'' is displayed in the same manner as when displaying ``Catch Bakushu with people!''.

Specifically, during the title start period, the performance control CPU 120 enlarges the title characters "Enter play time" to an enlarged size such that only some of the characters are visible in the display area, as shown in FIG. 11-66 (D). Display it in . At this time, the performance control CPU 120 causes the display area to be displayed in such a manner that the entire display area is completely filled with a part of the title characters "Enter play time". After that, as shown in FIGS. 11-66(D) and (E), the performance control CPU 120 gradually reduces the title character "Enter play time" so that all characters of the title character "Enter play time" are displayed in the display area. The title characters ``Enter play time'', which have been reduced in size and become visible, are held still in a fixed position.

The performance control CPU 120 displays the title characters "Enter play time" in a reduced size at a fixed position during the title start period, and then shifts the display to the title display period. During the title display period, the performance control CPU 120 causes the title characters "Enter play time" to remain displayed at a fixed position as shown in FIGS. 11-66(E) and (F).

After the title display period ends, the performance control CPU 120 shifts the display to the title end period. During the title end period, the performance control CPU 120 replaces the title characters "Enter play time" displayed in the reduced size at the fixed position as shown in FIGS. Expand the display area until the display area is completely filled by a part of "Rush". In this case, instead of being enlarged and displayed in the opposite manner to the case where the title character "Enter play time" is displayed in a reduced size during the title start period, when the title character "Enter play time" is displayed in a reduced size during the title start period. In a manner different from the reverse aspect, the title character "Enter play time" is expanded until the entire display area is filled with a part of the title character "Enter play time". In other words, the locus that each part of the title character passes during the process of shrinking of the title character "Entering play time" during the title start period is the trajectory that each part of the title character passes during the process of expanding the title character "Entering play time" during the title end period. is different. For this reason, the display area is completely filled with part of the title characters "Enter play time" in a manner different from the manner in which the display area is completely filled at the start of the title start period. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 11-66(H), the background of the play time effect is switched to and the play time effect is started.

During the play time start performance, the production control CPU 120 displays a right-handed promotion image (large) that urges an operation to launch the game ball toward the right gaming area 2R, in addition to the right-handed promotion image (small), and An image to warn people against getting addicted (message "Beware of getting addicted!") is displayed at the bottom of the display area.

The right-handed hitting promotion image (large) is a message that prompts the user to launch the game ball toward the right gaming area 2R, and the message "Right-handed hitting" (large), which is larger than the right-handed hitting promotion image (small), It is an arrow indicating a direction and is composed of an arrow image (large) which is larger in size than the arrow image (small), and the production control CPU 120, as shown in FIGS. A right-handed hitting promotion image (large) is repeatedly displayed in a manner of moving from the left side to the right side of the display area over the period in which the play time start effect is executed.

In addition, in this embodiment, the game control microcomputer 100 is controlled to the time saving state B, and when the variable display result is off, it selects the variation pattern PA1-4 with a special figure variation time of 500 ms. A variable display is performed, and the time saving state B is controlled, and if the variable display result is a jackpot, a variable pattern PB1-18 with a special figure fluctuation time of 500 ms + 15000 ms is selected to perform a variable display, and the production control CPU 120 is configured to execute the play time start effect during the period in which the variable display based on these variable patterns is performed when the time saving state B control starts, but the game control microcomputer 100 In the first variable display controlled to , that is, after controlling to time saving state B, the variable display result is based on the game ball winning in the first starting winning hole and the second starting winning hole. In this case, the time saving B start variation pattern which has a longer variation time than the variation pattern PA1-4 and which has a variable time corresponding to the play time start effect is selected to perform variable display, and the performance control CPU 120 sets the time reduction state. In the first variable display controlled by B, the play time start effect may be executed during the period when the variable display according to the time saving B start variation pattern is being performed. In addition, in such a configuration, when the variable display result is a jackpot in the first variable display controlled to the time saving state B, the game control microcomputer 100 changes the special figure variation time to the variation pattern PB1-18 of 500ms+15000ms. In addition to performing a variable display, the performance control CPU 120 may stop the decorative symbol (large) in a jackpot mode without executing the play time start performance.

[Mechanism of output to LED driver (lamp driver)]
FIG. 11-70 is a diagram for explaining the mechanism of output to the LED driver. In this embodiment, the performance control CPU 120 mounted on the performance control board 12 transmits brightness data for lighting/blinking/turning off one or more of the plurality of LEDs included in the game effect lamp 9. Output to the LED driver (also called lamp driver). In addition, below, the control of lighting/flashing/lights out performed by the performance control CPU 120 on lamps such as LEDs will also be referred to as lamp control. Based on the brightness data received from the performance control CPU 120, the LED driver adjusts the current flowing through each lamp included in the game effect lamp 9 to be controlled by the lamp in order to turn on/blink/extinguish the lamp. Each game effect lamp 9 lights/blinks/extinguishes based on the current adjusted by the LED driver.

To explain more specifically, the ROM 121 of the performance control board 12 stores a brightness data table in which brightness data for controlling each game effect lamp 9 is stored. The brightness data table includes an error brightness data table used when an error occurs, an SP reach brightness data table used during super reach, and a background brightness data table.

Furthermore, the background brightness data table includes a normal background brightness data table used in a low-accuracy low base state (normal state), a fanfare background brightness data table used in a fanfare state where a fanfare performance is executed, and a fanfare background brightness data table used in a fanfare state where a fanfare performance is executed. The brightness data table for the jackpot background used during the round of the jackpot game state, the brightness data table for the ending background used in the ending state in which the ending effect to notify the end of the jackpot game state is executed, and the brightness data table for the ending background used during the round of the low probability high base state (time saving and a time-saving background brightness data table used in the state).

Each of the background brightness data tables described above is used without overlapping, and is controlled to any one of a plurality of game states, such as a normal state, a fanfare state, a jackpot game state, an ending state, and a time saving state. One of the background brightness data tables is used depending on the background brightness data table. That is, the performance control CPU 120 uses one of the background brightness data tables for each gaming state under control, and outputs brightness data based on the background brightness data table to the LED driver. As a result, each game effect lamp 9 is controlled according to the game state being controlled.

Furthermore, the priority level when used is determined for each of the error brightness data table, the SP reach brightness data table, and the background brightness data table. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 11-70, the priority when used is increased in the order of the error brightness data table, the SP reach brightness data table, and the background brightness data table.

For example, if a super reach effect develops while outputting brightness data based on a normal background brightness data table in a normal state, the effect control CPU 120 outputs an SP reach brightness data table corresponding to the super reach effect. It is used preferentially over the normal background brightness data table and outputs brightness data to the LED driver based on the SP reach brightness data table. As a result, if the game effect lamp 9 is controlled in a manner corresponding to the normal state based on the normal background brightness data table and a super reach effect develops, the super reach effect will be supported based on the SP reach brightness data table. The game effect lamp 9 is lamp controlled in this manner. In addition, during the period when the brightness data based on the SP reach brightness data table is output to the LED driver, the brightness data based on the normal background brightness data table is not output to the LED driver, but after the super reach effect ends, When the normal state returns, the brightness data based on the brightness data table for the normal background is output to the LED driver, and when it becomes a jackpot and enters the fanfare state, the brightness data based on the brightness data table for the fanfare background is output to the LED driver. is output to.

More specifically, the performance control CPU 120 uses a timer to measure the lamp control time corresponding to the game state under control, and controls the LED driver using the background brightness data table corresponding to the game state under control. However, when a super reach effect develops, the SP reach brightness data table corresponding to the super reach effect is used preferentially than the background brightness data table to output brightness data to the LED driver. do. During this time, the performance control CPU 120 continues to update the timer value without stopping the lamp control time measurement using the background brightness data table. In other words, the performance control CPU 120 continues to update the brightness data included in the background brightness data table even while controlling the game effect lamp 9 based on the SP reach brightness data table, but the background brightness Since the brightness data included in the data table has a lower priority than the brightness data included in the SP reach brightness data table, the brightness data contained in the background brightness data table is not output to the LED driver. ing. After the super reach effect ends, the effect control CPU 120 starts outputting the brightness data included in the background brightness data table to the LED driver again from the continuation of the brightness data that has been updated.

For example, if an error occurs while outputting brightness data based on the SP reach brightness data table during a super reach performance, the performance control CPU 120 outputs the error brightness data table corresponding to the error to SP It is used preferentially over the reach brightness data table and outputs brightness data to the LED driver based on the error brightness data table. As a result, if an error occurs while the game effect lamp 9 is being lamp-controlled in a manner corresponding to the super reach effect based on the brightness data table for SP reach, the game is played in a manner corresponding to the error based on the brightness data table for error. The effect lamp 9 is lamp controlled. In addition, during the period when the brightness data based on the error brightness data table is being output to the LED driver, the brightness data based on the SP reach brightness data table is not output to the LED driver, but once the error is cleared, the super reach effect will resume. When returning to the medium gaming state, brightness data based on the SP reach brightness data table is output to the LED driver.

More specifically, the performance control CPU 120 uses a timer to measure the lamp control time corresponding to the super reach performance that is being controlled, and controls the LED driver using the SP reach brightness data table corresponding to the super reach performance. However, when an error occurs, the error brightness data table corresponding to the error is used preferentially over the SP reach brightness data table to output brightness data to the LED driver. During this time, the performance control CPU 120 continues to update the timer value without stopping the time measurement of the lamp control using the SP reach brightness data table. In other words, the performance control CPU 120 continues to update the brightness data included in the SP reach brightness data table even while controlling the game effect lamp 9 based on the error brightness data table, but the SP reach The brightness data included in the brightness data table has a lower priority than the brightness data contained in the error brightness data table, so the brightness data contained in the SP reach brightness data table should not be output to the LED driver. It has become. After the error is cleared, the performance control CPU 120 starts outputting the brightness data included in the SP ready-to-reach brightness data table to the LED driver again from the continuation of the brightness data that has been updated.

[Lighting mode of game effect lamp]
In this embodiment, each game effect lamp 9 is lamp-controlled by outputting brightness data to the LED driver by the effect control CPU 120 as described above. In this embodiment, terms related to the lighting of each game effect lamp 9 include "unlit,""substantiallyunlit,""lit," and "blinking." Further, as described above, the mode of each game effect lamp 9 by "lighting" and "blinking" is also referred to as "lighting mode".

The term "lights out" includes a state in which the game effect lamp 9 is not lit and the brightness is 0. The term "substantially off" includes a state in which the game effect lamp 9 is on but its brightness is extremely low (for example, brightness "1" to be described later).

For example, when RGB (Red, Green, Blue) data defined as luminance data is "000", the corresponding LED is "turned off". Further, when the brightness data (RGB data) is "111", the corresponding LED lights in white at extremely low brightness. In this embodiment, the state of the LED in which the RGB data is "111" may be referred to as "substantially off" for convenience.

When the R (Red) data defined as the brightness data of the logo LEDs LL1 to LL4 is "0", the logo LEDs LL1 to LL4 are "turned off". Further, when the brightness data (R data) of the logo LEDs LL1 to LL4 is "1", the logo LEDs LL1 to LL4 light up at extremely low brightness. In this embodiment, the state of the logo LEDs LL1 to LL4 in which the data of R is "1" may be referred to as "substantially off" for convenience.

When the W (white) data defined as the brightness data of the decorative LEDs LS1 to LS5 is "0", the decorative LEDs LS1 to LS5 are "extinguished". Further, when the brightness data (data of W) of the decorative LEDs LS1 to LS5 is "1", the decorative LEDs LS1 to LS5 are lit at extremely low brightness. In this embodiment, the state of the logo LEDs LL1 to LL4 in which the data of W is "1" may be referred to as "substantially off" for convenience.

The term "lighting" refers to constant lighting in which the game effect lamp 9 is always on, wave lighting in which a plurality of side-by-side lamps included in the game effect lamp 9 are switched from off to on in order, and wave lighting in which the game effect lamp 9 is This includes haze lighting, which is dimly lit while changing the brightness. Specifically, "lighting" includes lighting of the game effect lamp 9 when the brightness data is any one of "2" to "F". The brightness data is hexadecimal data and can be specified from "0" to "F", where "0" is no brightness, "1" is the lowest brightness, and "F" is the highest brightness. becomes higher.

The term "blinking" refers to a mode in which the game effect lamps 9 are in a state other than "turning off" or "on" as described above, and the brightness of each lamp when lit is a first brightness and a second brightness higher than the first brightness. This includes an aspect in which the mode is alternately switched between. For example, "blinking" includes repeating lighting and turning off or almost turning off, and specifically, "blinking" includes cases where the brightness data is one of "2" to "F", This includes switching over time between cases where the brightness data is "0" or "1". As described above, in this embodiment, the lighting mode of the lamp is hazy lighting, but the hazy lighting is a state in which the game effect lamp 9 is dimly lit while changing the brightness. The two differ from each other in that blinking is that each lamp included in the game effect lamp 9 repeats lighting and turning off or almost turning off.

[Explanation regarding game effect lamp]
Next, lamp control of the game effect lamp 9 will be explained with reference to FIGS. 11-71 to 12-36.

[About lamp control of game effect lamps using brightness data table]
The performance control CPU 120 uses a brightness data table stored in the ROM 121 to turn on/blink/extinguish one or more of the plurality of lamps included in the game effect lamp 9 by lamp control.

Specifically, the display control unit 123 sets the sub fluctuation time according to a fluctuation pattern command transmitted from the CPU 103 mounted on the main board 11. The sub-variation time is a counter that is decremented by 1 for each frame (33 ms) of the displayed image. The display control unit 123 controls the image data (video data, The display control of the image display device 5 is performed based on the animation data). The display control unit 123 sends extended commands (for example, extended command BXXX, etc. (where “X” is an arbitrary (alphanumeric characters)) and transmits the extended command to the production control CPU 120. Based on the extended command received from the display control unit 123, the performance control CPU 120 specifies the address of the parent table corresponding to the performance display (performance scene) whose display is controlled by the display control unit 123.

FIG. 11-71 is a diagram for explaining an example of lamp control using a brightness data table. As shown in FIG. 11-71, for example, when the display control unit 123 performs display control on the title display part of the low base weak reach A performance, an expansion for specifying the title display part of the low base weak reach A performance is performed. A command (B421) is sent to the performance control CPU 120. The performance control CPU 120 specifies the address of the parent table (weak reach common title (parent)) corresponding to the title display part of the low base weak reach A performance based on the extended command received from the display control unit 123.

The parent table contains information that specifies which lamps (lighting locations) are the targets of lamp control among the various lamps included in the game effect lamps 9, and which are referenced during lamp control, corresponding to the lamps that are the targets of lamp control. The information that specifies the child table for which lamp control is performed and the information that specifies the maximum time that lamp control is performed are stored. Note that the parent table stores only information about lamps that are subject to lamp control, and does not store information about lamps that are not subject to lamp control.

For example, in the parent table shown in Figure 11-74, the lamp control targets are frame LEDL1 to LWL12, frame LEDLWR2 to LWR12 (XD_A_LWU_1_B421), logo LEDLL1 to LL4 (XD_A_LLOGO_B421), decoration LEDS1 to LS5 (XD_A_LSLMP_B421), Tacker lamp LA1 ~LA4 (XD_A_LATAK_B421) is specified. In addition, a child table: XD_J_LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE is specified corresponding to the frame LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and frame LEDLWR2 to LWR12, and 600000ms (600000/10) is specified as the maximum time for lamp control by this child table, and the logo LEDLL1 to Child table: XD_J_LLOGO_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE is specified corresponding to LL4, 600000ms (600000/10) is specified as the maximum time for lamp control by this child table, and child table: XD_J_LSLMP_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE is specified corresponding to decorative LEDs LS1 to LS5. 600000ms (600000/10) is specified as the maximum time for lamp control using this child table, and child table: XD_J_LATAK_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE is specified corresponding to attacker lamps LA1 to LA4, and lamp control using this child table is specified. 600000ms (600000/10) is specified as the maximum time for this to occur.

As shown in FIG. 11-71, when the performance control CPU 120 controls the lamp specified in the parent table using the specified child table, for example, 600000 ms (10 minutes) is specified as the maximum time. If so, the counter is decremented by 1 every 10 ms to measure the 600,000 ms (10 minutes). That is, the performance control CPU 120 has timed 600,000 ms (10 minutes) by executing the counter subtraction process 60,000 times. The performance control CPU 120 performs lamp control of the target lamp using the child table specified by the parent table until a maximum of 600,000 ms (10 minutes) is counted. In addition, if the production control CPU 120 receives another extended command before timing a maximum of 600000 ms (10 minutes) after receiving the extended command, the CPU 120 for effect control stops the lamp control that is currently being executed, and restarts the lamp control. The lamp control of the target lamp is performed using the child table specified by the parent table specified by the extended command received. Although it is not assumed that 600,000 ms is required for the production display (production scene), the maximum time for lamp control by the child table is set to 600,000 ms, which is significantly longer than the time required for the production display (production scene). Therefore, even if the production control CPU 120 does not receive the next extended command for some reason, the lamp control being executed can continue for a maximum of 600000 ms (10 minutes).

The child table contains information specifying a grandchild table to be referenced during lamp control and lamp control for each lamp (lit location) that is the target of lamp control among the various lamps included in the game effect lamp 9. Information specifying the execution time is stored in the order in which each lamp control is executed.

For example, in the child table shown in Figure 11-75, corresponding to frame LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and frame LEDLWR2 to LWR12 (XD_J_LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE), grandchild table: Table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 and this grandchild table perform ramp control execution time: 500ms, grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_3 and this grandchild table perform lamp control execution time: 230ms, grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 and this grandchild table Lamp control is performed by An execution time of 600,000 ms is specified in the order in which the lamp control using these grandchild tables is executed.

In addition, in the child table shown in Figure 11-75, corresponding to logo LEDs LL1 to LL4 (XD_J_LLOGO_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE), grandchild table: This Execution time for ramp control by grandchild table: 500ms, execution time for ramp control by grandchild table: XD___LLOGO_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_3 and this grandchild table: 230ms, execution time for ramp control by grandchild table: XD___LLOGO_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 and this grandchild table: 600000ms are specified in the order in which lamp control using these grandchild tables is executed.

In addition, in the child table shown in Figure 11-75, corresponding to the decorative LEDs LS1 to LS5 (XD_J_LSLMP_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE), the grandchild table: 2 and this Execution time for ramp control using grandchild table: 500ms, execution time for ramp control using grandchild table: XD_J_LSLMP_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_3 and this grandchild table: 230ms, execution time for ramp control using grandchild table: X_J_LSLMP_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 and this grandchild table: 600000ms are specified in the order in which lamp control using these grandchild tables is executed.

In addition, in the child table shown in Figure 11-75, corresponding to attacker lamps LA1 to LA4 (XD_J_LATAK_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE), grandchild table: 2 and Execution time for ramp control using this grandchild table: 500ms, execution time for ramp control using grandchild table: XD_J_LATAK_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_3 and this grandchild table: 230ms, execution time for ramp control using grandchild table: 600000 ms is specified in the order in which lamp control by these grandchild tables is executed.

As shown in FIG. 11-71, when controlling a target lamp using a grandchild table specified by a child table, the production control CPU 120 uses, for example, the first specified grandchild table to control the target lamp. After performing lamp control for the target lamp and measuring the execution time corresponding to this grandchild table, the process of performing lamp control for the target lamp using the specified grandchild table is performed using all specified grandchild tables. are to be performed in the specified order. For example, for the child table shown in Figure 11-75, lamp control is performed using the grandchild table: Perform ramp control using table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2, then perform ramp control using grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_3 until 230 ms is measured, then perform ramp control using grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 until 600000 ms is measured. . Although it is not assumed that 600,000 ms is required for the production display (production scene), the maximum time for lamp control using the grandchild table specified at the end is 600000ms, which is significantly longer than the time required for the production display (production scene). By setting, even if the production control CPU 120 does not receive the next extended command for some reason, the lamp control being executed can be continued for a maximum of 600000 ms (10 minutes).

In addition, in the child table, when the frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12 are the targets of lamp control, the child tables corresponding to the frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12 are set as shown in FIG. 11-75, for example. One grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_1 may be specified, or two grandchild tables: XD___LWU_1_KYOTSU_CHANCE_AKA1_1 and XD___LWU_2_KYOTSU_CHANCE_AKA1_1 may be specified, as shown in Figure 11-75. Then, when one grandchild table is specified as a grandchild table corresponding to the frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12, the production control CPU 120 uses this one grandchild table to set the frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and the frame The same lamp control is performed for both LEDLWR2 to LWR12. On the other hand, if two grandchild tables are specified as grandchild tables corresponding to frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12, the production control CPU 120 uses one of the two grandchild tables to frame the frame. Lamp control is performed for LEDLWL1 to LWL12, and lamp control for frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12 is performed using the other grandchild table. Therefore, if one grandchild table is specified as the grandchild table corresponding to the frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12, common lamp control is performed for the frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12. On the other hand, when two grandchild tables are specified, individual lamp control is performed for the frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12.

It is.

The value of the brightness data corresponds to the current value output to the lamp that is the target of lamp control. The frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12, the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12, and the attacker lamps LA1 to LA4 are composed of LEDs consisting of three elements such as "R", "G", and "B", but the luminance data for each element is Corresponds to the current value output for. Specifically, the brightness data has current values divided into 16 levels from 0 to F. When the brightness data is 0, the current value is the lowest value (for example, 0), and when the brightness data is F, the current value is the lowest value (for example, 0). The current value reaches its maximum value. For example, when luminance data of "A" is output to the "R" element, a current corresponding to the luminance data of "A" flows to the "R" element, and "1" is output to the "G" element. When brightness data is output, a current corresponding to the brightness data of "1" flows through the "G" element, and when brightness data of "F" is output to the "G" element, the current corresponding to the brightness data of "1" flows through the "F" element. A current corresponding to the luminance data flows through the "G" element.

The frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12, the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12, and the attacker lamps LA1 to LA4 can emit light in various colors by flowing currents corresponding to the luminance data to each RGB element. Furthermore, the frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12, the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12, and the attacker lamps LA1 to LA4 can be lit in colors corresponding to each effect or character by emitting light based on brightness data. As an example, data "F00" is output from an LED lamp to an LED as luminance data, and a current corresponding to the data flows, causing the LED to light up in red. Further, data "F0F" is outputted from the LED lamp to the LED as luminance data, and a current corresponding to the data flows, causing the LED to light up in reddish-purple color. In addition, the data "FF0" is outputted from the LED lamp to the LED as luminance data, and a current corresponding to the data flows, causing the LED to light up in yellow.

In addition, the logo LEDs LL1 to LL4 can emit red light with a brightness corresponding to the brightness data by flowing a current corresponding to the brightness data to the R (Red) element, and the decorative LEDs LS1 to LS5 can emit light in red with a brightness corresponding to the brightness data. By uniformly flowing currents corresponding to the luminance data to the three elements R, G, and B, it is possible to emit white light with a luminance corresponding to the luminance data.

As shown in FIG. 11-71, when performing lamp control on a target lamp by referring to the brightness data in the grandchild table, for example, the production control CPU 120 outputs the initially specified brightness data to the LED driver. After measuring the execution time corresponding to this brightness data, the process of outputting the next specified brightness data to the LED driver is performed for all the specified brightness data in the specified order. There is. For example, in the child table shown in Figure 11-75, for the frames LEDLWL1 to LWL12 and the frames LEDLWR2 to LWR12, the luminance data: 0x000000, 0x000000, 0x000000, 0x000000, 0x000000, 0x000000 is LE until the first 100ms is measured. to D driver Output brightness data: 0x000000, 0x000000, 0x000000, 0x000000, 0x000000, 0x000000 to the LED driver until the next 120ms is counted, then brightness data: 0x000000, 0x000000, 0 until the next 120ms is counted. x000000, 0x000000, 0x000000 , Output 0x000000 to the LED driver, then output brightness data: 0x5AA5AA, 0x5AA5AA, 0x5AA5AA, 0x5AA5AA, 0x5AA5AA, 0x5AA5AA to the LED driver, and then output 0x5AA5AA, 0x5AA5AA, 0x5AA5AA until the next 40ms is counted. , Output 0x5AA5AA, 0x5AA5AA, 0x5AA5AA to the LED driver. Based on the received brightness data, the LED driver causes a current corresponding to the brightness data to flow through the designated LED. Thereby, the performance control CPU 120 can perform lamp control on each lamp included in the game effect lamp 9 via the LED driver.

As described above, the production control CPU 120 has a timer corresponding to each of the parent table, child table, and grandchild table, and while subtracting the timer at a constant cycle (for example, 10ms cycle), Performs ramp control based on tables, child tables, and grandchild tables.

Specifically, the production control CPU 120 starts outputting the brightness data from the first designated location of the grandchild table, and when the output of brightness data is completed up to the last designated location of the grandchild table, the production control CPU 120 outputs the grandchild table. If the timer value corresponding to the specified child table still remains, outputting the luminance data is started again from the first specified location in the child table. On the other hand, while outputting the brightness data based on the grandchild table, if the value of the timer corresponding to the child table that specifies the grandchild table becomes 0, the production control CPU 120 will output the brightness data based on the child table. A timer corresponding to another child table specified by the parent table specifying is set, and output of luminance data is started from the first specified location of the grandchild table specified by the child table. As a result, the grandchild table is switched, and lamp control is performed based on the switched grandchild table.

The timer management of the child table by the performance control CPU 120 will be explained with reference to the drawings. FIG. 11-72 is a diagram for explaining an example of lamp control using a grandchild table based on timer management of a child table. As shown in Figure 11-72, in the child table: 500ms is specified as the time for lamp control to be performed in the third, and grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 is specified, 230ms is specified as the time for lamp control to be performed in the third, and grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_3 is specified, 600000 ms is specified as the time for the fourth lamp control to be performed, and grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 is specified. In the second and fourth grandchild tables: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2, for frame LEDLWL1 to LWL12, the brightness data (RGB data) is "0x5AA499, 0x388499, 0x5AA499, 0x388499, 0x5AA499, 0x388499", "0x4995AA, 0x499388, 0x4995AA, 0x499388, 0x4995AA, 0x499388", "0x388499, 0x5AA499, 0x388499, 0x5AA499, 0x388499, 0x5AA499", "0x499388, 0x4995AA, 0x499388, 0x4995AA, 0x499 388, 0x4995AA" is specified to be executed at 100ms intervals. For convenience of explanation, the luminance data for the first 100 ms will be referred to as data 1, the luminance data for the second 100 ms will be referred to as data 2, the luminance data for the third 100 ms will be referred to as data 3, and the luminance data for the fourth 100 ms will be referred to as data 4. .

When performing lamp control for the second designated grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 of the child table: The luminance data of data 1, data 2, data 3, and data 4 are output to the LED driver at 100 ms intervals based on :XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 until reaching 500 ms, but after outputting data 1 to data 4, the time is still 500 ms. If the luminance data has not been reached, the luminance data is outputted to the LED driver again in order from the first data 1. When the time measurement reaches 500ms, the production control CPU 120 stops outputting the brightness data based on the grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 at that point, and outputs the brightness data based on the next grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_3 specified by the child table. Start.

In addition, when performing lamp control for the fourth designated grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 of the child table: Until the time measurement reaches 600000 ms, the luminance data of data 1, data 2, data 3, and data 4 are output to the LED driver at 100 ms intervals based on : If the time has not reached 600000 ms, the luminance data is outputted to the LED driver again in order starting from the first data 1. When the time measurement reaches 600000 ms, the performance control CPU 120 stops outputting the brightness data based on the grandchild table: XD___LWU_1_JAKU_KYOTU_TYTLE1_2 at that time. At this time, since the next grandchild table is not specified in the child table, output of luminance data based on the first grandchild table specified in the child table: In this case, the time measurement never reaches 600,000 ms, and by receiving the next extended command from the display control unit 123 before the time measurement reaches 600,000 ms, the parent table/child table/child table specified by the newly received extended command is displayed. Output of luminance data based on the grandchild table will start.

As shown in the parent table shown in Figure 11-74, 600000 ms (10 minutes) is specified as the maximum lamp control time by the child table, and the 10 minute data in such a parent table is used for troubleshooting purposes. Responsible for That is, the production control CPU 120 performs lamp control by switching the parent table based on the production control command from the main board 11, but if some malfunction occurs while the lamp control is being performed based on a certain parent table, the production Even if the control CPU 120 does not receive a production control command from the main board 11, lamp control is performed based on the same parent table for 10 minutes, so different lamp control is performed one after another from the point where a problem occurs. It is possible to prevent this from happening.

In addition, as in the child table shown in Figure 11-75, 600000 ms (10 minutes) is specified as the lamp control execution time by the grandchild table specified at the end, and the 10 minute data in such a child table is , when the value of the timer corresponding to the child table becomes 0, the ramp control by the grandchild table specified at the beginning of the child table will be performed again because the timer of the parent table still remains. play the role of prevention.

Furthermore, in the grandchild table, 600000 ms (10 minutes) may be specified as the execution time of the lamp control that refers to the last specified luminance data. With this configuration, 10 minutes in the luminance data When the value of the timer corresponding to the grandchild table becomes 0, the timer of the child table still remains, so lamp control is performed again using the luminance data specified at the beginning of the grandchild table. This will play a role in preventing things from being put away. In this way, by setting the luminance data specified at the end of the grandchild table as 10-minute data, the lamp is maintained with one fixed light emission, which prevents the problem of continuous changes in lamp lighting. Can be done. Furthermore, by specifying luminance data for 600000ms (10 minutes) at the end of the grandchild table specified at the end of the child table, it is possible to more effectively prevent the problem of continuous changes in lamp lighting. can.

[About the brightness data table used for super reach effect 1]
FIG. 11-73 is a diagram showing a brightness data table used for the super reach effect.

The execution time of the title display part is the same for the low base weak reach A performance and the low base weak reach B performance, and as shown in FIG. 11-73, the performance control CPU 120 when executing the low base weak reach A performance Also, when executing the low base weak reach B effect, the title display part uses a common weak reach system common title that defines the luminance mode of the title display part of the low base weak reach A and B effects as a brightness data table. The lamp control of the game effect lamp 9 is carried out using.

In addition, when executing the low base weak reach A and B performances, the production control CPU 120 executes a title color change production in the title display part, and when changing the title characters to red, the low base weak reach A Whether it is the title display part of the production or the title display part of the low base weak reach B production, a common brightness data table that defines the lighting mode when changing the title character to red in the title color change production is used.

By doing this, the title characters corresponding to the low base strongest reach effect and the low base strong reach effect A to C are larger in size than the expectation level suggestion display, and their appearance suggests the level of expectation. Therefore, it attracts the player's attention, but by displaying the expectation level suggestion display before the title characters, it is possible to draw attention to the expectation level suggestion first. Moreover, since the expectation level suggestion display is performed in a common manner whether the title characters are displayed in white or red, attention can be drawn to the subsequent appearance of the title characters.

[Effect 13]
In this embodiment, the performance control CPU 120 can execute the low base strong reach B performance and the low base strong reach C performance, which has a higher jackpot expectation than the low base strong reach B performance. The low base strong reach B and C effects include both a title display part in which the corresponding title characters are displayed and an introduction part until the effect result is announced. In addition, the expectation level suggestion display is displayed in the first mode (3.5 stars) in the title display part of the low base strong reach B production, and in the second mode (4 stars) in the title display part of the low base strong reach C production. ) to display the expectation level suggestion display. At this time, the expectation level suggestion display in the title display part of the low base strong reach B performance and the expectation level suggestion display in the title display part of the low base strong reach C performance are highlighted in a common manner. By doing this, even when displaying the expectation level suggestion display in the first mode in the title display part in the low base strong reach B production, the expectation level suggestion display is displayed in the second mode in the title display part in the low base strong reach C production. Even when displaying the expectation level suggestion display, the development cost can be reduced by making the highlighted display a common mode.

In addition, the expectation level suggestion display is composed of multiple star-shaped objects, and in the low base strong reach B production, the expectation level is suggested by N (N is an integer) + 0.5 (3.5) objects, In the low base strong reach C performance, the level of expectation is suggested by N+1 (4) objects, and each star-shaped object is highlighted, and even when one object is highlighted, the level of expectation is 0. Even when five objects are highlighted, the highlighting is done in a common manner. By doing this, whether one star-shaped object is highlighted or 0.5 star-shaped objects are highlighted, the highlighting is done in a common manner. This can reduce development costs.

Furthermore, in the expectation level suggestion display, the time during which one star-shaped object is highlighted is the same as the time during which 0.5 star-shaped objects are highlighted. By doing this, the time for highlighting one star object and the time for highlighting 0.5 star objects can be made the same, reducing development costs. Can be done.

In addition, in the expectation level suggestion display, a common expectation level suggestion sound is output both when one star-shaped object is highlighted and when 0.5 star-shaped objects are highlighted. . By doing this, a common expectation level suggestion sound is output whether one star-shaped object is highlighted or 0.5 star-shaped objects are highlighted. This can reduce development costs.

In addition, the performance control CPU 120 uses a brightness data table composed of brightness data to use the game effect lamps 9 (frame LEDLWL1 to LWL12, frame LEDLWR2 to LWR12, logo LEDLL1 to LL4, decoration LEDS1 to LS5, attacker lamps LA1 to LA4). ), and in the title display part of the low base strong reach B and C performances, the game effect lamp 9 is controlled using the brightness data table for title display (common titles for strong base systems), and the low base strong reach is controlled. In the introduction parts of the B and C effects, the game effect lamp 9 is controlled using the brightness data table for each introduction part (strong reach system strong reach B introduction, strong reach system strong reach C introduction). By doing this, in the title display part of the low base strong reach B and C effects, the game effect lamp 9 is controlled using a brightness data table for title display that is different from the brightness data table for the introduction part. , the game effect lamp 9 can be caused to emit light in a suitable light emitting manner according to the title display.

Since the game effect lamp 9 is controlled using different brightness data tables for title display in the title display part of the B performance and the title display part of the low base strong reach C performance, the appropriate light emission according to the title display is performed. The game effect lamp 9 can be made to emit light depending on the mode, and as a result, the title can be suitably displayed.

[Effect 14]
In this embodiment, the performance control CPU 120 can execute low base strong reach performances A to C, low base strongest reach performances, and high base reach performances A to D. For low base strong reach A to C production, low base strongest reach production, and high base reach A to D production, the title display part that displays the corresponding title characters and the introduction part until the production result is announced are all It is also composed of Further, in the title display part of the low base strong reach performance A to C, the low base strongest reach performance, and the high base reach performance A to D, an expectation level suggestion display composed of a plurality of star-shaped objects can be displayed. In the expectation level suggestion display, the first star-shaped object is highlighted, and then the second star-shaped object is highlighted while continuing to highlight the first star-shaped object. After that, the highlighting for the first star-shaped object ends, and the highlighting for the third star-shaped object is performed. By doing this, in the expectation level suggestion display, the highlighting for the second star-shaped object starts before the highlighting for the first star-shaped object ends, but the highlighting for the third star-shaped object ends. Since the highlighting of the objects does not start until the highlighting of the first star-shaped object ends, it becomes easier to recognize the number of objects that indicate the expectation of a jackpot.

In addition, in the expectation level suggestion display, an expectation level suggestion sound is output every time a star-shaped object is highlighted, and after the output of the expectation level suggestion sound for the first star-shaped object is finished, the next star-shaped object is highlighted. A sound indicating the expectation level of highlighting for the object is output. By doing so, the emphasis sound for highlighting one object does not overlap with the emphasis sound for highlighting the next object, making it easier to recognize the number of objects that indicate the degree of expectation.

In addition, the expectation level suggestion display is composed of multiple star-shaped objects and the characters "expectation level" indicating that the star-shaped objects indicate the level of expectation. '' is carried out in a size that overlaps with the above. By doing so, by highlighting the star-shaped object, it is possible to draw attention to both the multiple star-shaped objects that make up the expectation level suggestion display and the text indicating that the star-shaped object indicates the level of expectation. .

In addition, in this embodiment, when highlighting some of the star-shaped objects among the plurality of star-shaped objects, the highlighting of the star-shaped objects is changed to text indicating that the star-shaped objects indicate the degree of expectation. Although this is a superimposed configuration, for all star-shaped objects, the highlighted display for the star-shaped object may be superimposed on the text indicating that the star-shaped object indicates the degree of expectation.

[Effect 15]
In this embodiment, the performance control CPU 120 can execute low base strong reach performances A to C, low base strongest reach performances, and high base reach performances A to D. For the low base strong reach A to C production, the low base strongest reach production, and the high base reach A to D production, the title display part that displays the corresponding title characters and the introduction part until the production result is announced are all It is also composed of In addition, it is possible to display multiple pending displays corresponding to variable displays that have not started yet, and multiple hold displays can be displayed in the title display part of low base strong reach A to C effects, low base strongest reach effects, and high base reach effects A to D. It is possible to display an expectation level suggestion display composed of star-shaped objects. Then, in the title display part of the low base strong reach performance A to C, the low base strongest reach performance, and the high base reach performance A to D, the hold display is not displayed at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display. By doing this, an expectation level suggestion display composed of multiple objects is displayed in the title display part of the low base strong reach A to C effects, the low base strongest reach effects, and the high base reach effects A to D. Since the pending display is not displayed at the same time as the expectation level suggestion display, it is possible to prevent the pending display from being mistakenly recognized as the expectation level suggesting display.

In particular, the maximum number of active displays corresponding to pending displays and variable displays that have been started will match the maximum number of star objects that make up the expectation suggestion display, but the maximum number of pending displays and active displays will be Even if low base strong reach A to C effects, low base strongest reach effects, and high base reach effects A to D are executed in the displayed situation, the pending display and active display constitute a star-shaped object that constitutes an expectation level suggestion display. It is possible to prevent erroneous recognition that the maximum number of is displayed.

Moreover, by erasing the hold display when a monochrome display effect in which the display area is displayed in a single color is executed before the start of the title display part, the hold display can be ended without any discomfort.

In addition, the performance control CPU 120 uses a brightness data table composed of brightness data to use the game effect lamps 9 (frame LEDLWL1 to LWL12, frame LEDLWR2 to LWR12, logo LEDLL1 to LL4, decoration LEDS1 to LS5, attacker lamps LA1 to LA4). ), and in the title display part of low base strong reach A to C effects and high base reach A to D effects, the brightness data table for title display (strong base common title, high base, high base reach type Common title) is used to control the game effect lamp 9, and in the introduction part of low base strong reach A to C effects and high base reach A to D effects, the brightness data table for the introduction part (strong reach system strong reach A introduction , introduction of strong reach system strong reach B, introduction of strong reach system strong reach C, introduction of high base reach system reach A, introduction of high base reach system reach B, introduction of high base reach system reach C, introduction of high base reach system reach D) is used to control the game effect lamp 9. By doing this, in the title display parts of the low base strong reach A to C performances and the high base reach A to D performances, the game uses a brightness data table for title display that is different from the brightness data table for the introduction part. Since the effect lamp 9 is controlled, the game effect lamp 9 can be caused to emit light in a suitable light emission mode according to the title display. As a result of these, the title can be suitably displayed.

In addition, in the low base strongest reach performance, the game effect lamp 9 is controlled in the title display part and the introduction part using one brightness data table (strongest reach title introduction) corresponding to the title display part and the introduction part. However, in the title display part of the low base strongest reach performance, the brightness data table for title display (luminance data table composed of brightness data corresponding to the title display part of the low base strongest reach performance (strongest reach system strongest reach title) ) is used to control the game effect lamp 9, and in the introduction part of the low base strongest reach effect, the brightness data table for the introduction part (luminance data composed of brightness data corresponding to the title display part of the low base strongest reach effect) The game effect lamp 9 may be controlled using a table (strongest reach system strongest reach introduction), and with such a configuration, in the title display part of the low base strongest reach effect, the brightness for the introduction part Since the game effect lamp 9 is controlled using a brightness data table for title display that is different from the data table, the game effect lamp 9 can be caused to emit light in a suitable light emission mode according to the title display, and these results The title can be suitably displayed as follows.

[Effect 16]
In this embodiment, the performance control CPU 120 can execute low base strong reach performances A to C and high base reach performances A to C. The low base strong reach A to C performances and the high base reach A to C performances are comprised of both a title display part that displays the corresponding title characters and an introduction part until the performance result is announced. . In addition, in the title display part of the low base strong reach A production/high base reach A production, it is possible to display an expectation suggestion display composed of the first number (3) star-shaped objects, and the low base strong reach B production/ In the title display part of the high base reach B performance, it is possible to display an expectation suggestion display consisting of a second number (3.5) of star-shaped objects, which is larger than the first number, and a low base strong reach C performance/high In the title display part in the base reach C performance, it is possible to display an expectation level suggestion display composed of a third number (4) of star-shaped objects, which is larger than the second number. The difference between the first number (3) and the second number (3.5) is the same as the difference between the second number (3.5) and the third number (4) (0.5 ), and the expected jackpot when the low base strong reach C performance corresponding to the third number (4)/high base reach C performance is executed and the low base strong reach corresponding to the second number (3.5) The difference from the jackpot expectation level when the B performance/high base reach B performance is executed is when the low base strong reach B performance/high base reach B performance corresponding to the second number (3.5) is executed. It is larger than the difference between the jackpot expectation level when the low base strong reach A performance/high base reach A performance corresponding to the first number (3) is executed. By doing this, the number of star-shaped objects displayed as the expectation level suggestion display in the title display part increases from the first number (3) to the second number (3.5), and the second number ( 3.5) to the third number (4), the increase in the number of star objects is the same, but it increases from the first number (3) to the second number (3.5). The amount of increase in the jackpot expectation is larger when the number increases from the second number (3.5) to the third number (4) than when the number of star objects increases. While it is possible to make the user expect a jackpot more than the number of objects, it does not make the player expect an excessive jackpot when the number of star-shaped objects is small.

In addition, the performance control CPU 120 can execute the low base strongest reach performance/high base reach D performance, and the number of title display parts in the low base strongest reach performance/high base reach D performance is greater than the third number (4). It is possible to display an expectation level suggestion display consisting of a star-shaped object of the fourth number (4.5), and the difference between the third number (4) and the fourth number (4.5) (0.5 ) is smaller than the difference (1) between the first number (3) and the third number (4), and is the lowest base strongest reach performance/high base reach D performance corresponding to the fourth number (4.5). The difference between the jackpot expectation level when the is executed and the jackpot expectation level when the low base strong reach C performance/high base reach C performance corresponding to the third number (4) is executed is the third number (4). ) corresponding to the low base strong reach C performance/high base reach C performance when the jackpot expectation level is executed and the low base strong reach B performance corresponding to the first number (3)/high base reach B performance is executed. This is larger than the difference between the expected jackpot and the expected jackpot. By doing this, the number of star-shaped objects displayed as the expectation level suggestion display in the title display part increases from the first number (3) to the third number (4). The increase in the number of star-shaped objects is smaller when increasing from the first number (4.5) to the fourth number (4.5), but the increase in the number of star objects is smaller than when increasing from the first number (3) to the third number (4). The amount of increase in the jackpot expectation is greater when increasing from (4) to the fourth number (4.5), so the more the number of star-shaped objects increases, the smaller the number of star-shaped objects increased. But you can expect to hit the jackpot.

Also, the difference between the third number (4) and the fourth number (4.5) is 0.5, and the difference between the first number (3) and the third number (4) is 1.

[Effect 38]
In this embodiment, the performance control CPU 120 can execute a super reach performance. The super reach performance includes a title display part for displaying the corresponding title characters, and an introduction part until the performance result is announced. Furthermore, when the game control microcomputer 100 performs variable display 900 times without being controlled by a jackpot in the normal state, it controls to a time saving state B (play time) which is more advantageous than the normal state. In addition, in the normal state, it is possible to display characters indicating the remaining number of times until the play time is controlled to the time saving state B (play time). The size of the characters composing the title characters corresponding to the super reach performance is larger than the size of the characters composing the remaining number of times until play time characters. By doing this, the title characters corresponding to the Super Reach effect are displayed larger than the characters that make up the remaining number of play times until play time, so it is possible to draw attention to the title characters corresponding to the Super Reach effect. .

In addition, the super reach performance includes low base weak reach performances A and B, and low base strong reach performances A to C, which have higher jackpot expectations than the low base weak reach performances A and B. The number of times character is displayed during the execution of the low base weak reach performances A and B, and is not displayed during the execution of the low base strong reach performances A to C. By doing this, in the low base weak reach A and B performances where the expectation of jackpot is low, the remaining number of times until play time is displayed, so it is possible to make you aware of the number of times until time saving state B (play time) On the other hand, in the low base strong reach A to C performances where the expectation of a jackpot is high, attention can be drawn to the contents of the performance by not displaying the characters of the number of times remaining until play time. In addition, in the time-saving state B (play time), since it is easier to win a jackpot which is more advantageous than in the normal state, the player's feeling of regret can be alleviated when the number of times remaining until the time-saving state B (play time) is small.

In addition, if the selection effect develops to the low base strong reach A to C effects without going through the low base weak reach effects A and B, the number of remaining times until play time will not be displayed even while the selection effect is being executed. By doing so, the number of remaining times until play time will not interfere with the selection performance in which the super reach performance that is higher than the low base strong reach A to C performance is determined by the number of characters remaining until play time, and the number of times remaining until time saving state B (play time). If there are few players, the player's sense of regret can be alleviated.

In addition, when it is announced that there will be a jackpot in the low base strong reach A to C performances, the character will not be displayed again for the remaining number of times until the play time and the game will be controlled to a jackpot gaming state, and the low base strong reach A to C performances will be controlled. When it is reported that the player is out of the game, the number of remaining times until the play time is displayed again after the low base strong reach performances A to C are finished. By doing this, when it is announced that there will be a jackpot with the low base strong reach A to C effect, the remaining number of times until the play time will not be displayed again, and the number of times until the time saving state B (play time) will be reduced. To alleviate a player's sense of regret when the number of remaining games is small. In addition, if it is announced that you will lose in the low base strong reach A to C effects, the characters remaining until the play time will be displayed again after the low base strong reach effects A to C are finished, so the time saving state B ( If there are only a few times left until play time, it can be relieved quickly.

In addition, the performance control CPU 120 uses a brightness data table composed of brightness data to use the game effect lamps 9 (frame LEDLWL1 to LWL12, frame LEDLWR2 to LWR12, logo LEDLL1 to LL4, decoration LEDS1 to LS5, attacker lamps LA1 to LA4). ), and in the title display part of the super reach performance, the game effect lamp 9 is controlled using the brightness data table for title display (common titles for weak reach systems, common titles for strong reach systems, common titles for high base reach systems).

Further, in operation promotion effects A to D executed at timings related to the super reach effect, operation promotion characters (small) can be displayed to prompt the player to operate the push button 31B. Further, in the normal state, it is possible to display characters indicating the remaining number of times until the play time is controlled to the time saving state B (play time). The size of the characters constituting the operation promotion characters (small) is larger than the size of the characters constituting the remaining number of times until play time characters. By doing this, the operation promotion letters (small) are displayed larger than the letters that make up the number of remaining times until play time, so you can draw attention to the operation promotion letters (small) and effectively It is possible to prompt the player to perform an action (operation).

In addition, when performing the low base strong reach performances A to C of the super reach performances, if the operation promotion characters (small) are displayed in the operation promotion performance A that is executed before the title display part, the play time The characters for the number of times remaining until play time are displayed at the same time, but when displaying the operation promotion characters (small) in the operation promotion effect D that is executed at the end of the introduction part, the characters for the number of times remaining until play time are not displayed. . By doing this, before the development of the low base strong reach A to C effect, the promotion text display operation promotion text (small) and the number of remaining times until the play time remain displayed at the same time, the time is saved. It is possible to make the player aware of the number of times until B (play time), and by not displaying the remaining number of times until play time in the operation promotion letters (small) in the introduction part, it is possible to determine whether or not the jackpot will be announced. It can draw attention.

In addition, when performing the low base strong reach A to C effects, the operation promotion effect A executed before the title display part is more advantageous than the operation promotion text (small) and the operation promotion text (small). Of the operation promotion letters (large) that are suggested, only the operation promotion letters (small) are displayed, while in the operation promotion effect D executed at the end of the introduction part, the operation promotion letters (small) are also displayed (large). ) can also be displayed, and when the operation promotion letters (large) are displayed in the low base strong reach A to C effects, the remaining number of times until play time letters are not displayed at the same time. By doing so, in addition to whether or not a jackpot will be announced, operation promotion characters (large) are displayed to draw attention to the fact that a more advantageous situation is suggested.

In addition, the performance control CPU 120 uses a brightness data table composed of brightness data to use the game effect lamps 9 (frame LEDLWL1 to LWL12, frame LEDLWR2 to LWR12, logo LEDLL1 to LL4, decoration LEDS1 to LS5, attacker lamps LA1 to LA4). ), and in the title display part of the super reach performance, the game effect lamp 9 is controlled using the brightness data table for title display (common titles for weak reach systems, common titles for strong reach systems), and the game effect lamp 9 is controlled in the title display part of the super reach performance. In the introduction part, the brightness data table for the introduction part (weak reach system weak reach A introduction, weak reach system weak reach B introduction, strong reach system strong reach A introduction, strong reach system strong reach B introduction, strong reach system strong reach C) is used to control the game effect lamp 9. By doing this, in the title display part of the super reach performance, the game effect lamp 9 is controlled using a brightness data table for title display that is different from the brightness data table for the introduction part, so it is possible to control the game effect lamp 9 according to the title display.

[Effect 40]
In this embodiment, the performance control CPU 120 can execute a super reach performance. The super reach performance includes a title display part for displaying the corresponding title characters, and an introduction part until the performance result is announced. Furthermore, when the game control microcomputer 100 performs variable display 900 times without being controlled by a jackpot in the normal state, it controls to a time saving state B (play time) which is more advantageous than the normal state. Further, after it is announced that there will be a jackpot due to the super reach performance, title characters of the jackpot start performance corresponding to the controlled jackpot game state can be displayed. In addition, in the normal state, it is possible to display characters indicating the remaining number of times until the play time is controlled to the time saving state B (play time). Before displaying the title characters for the jackpot start performance, the characters for the remaining number of times until play time are erased, and the size of the characters that make up the title characters for the jackpot start performance is changed to the number of times remaining until play time. is larger than the size of the characters that make it up. By doing this, the situation in which the title characters of the jackpot start effect are displayed is the situation after the jackpot has already been announced, and the remaining number of characters until play time is unnecessary, so the jackpot start effect is displayed. Before displaying the title characters, the remaining number of play time characters are erased, and the characters that make up the title character of the jackpot start effect are displayed larger than the characters that make up the remaining number of play time characters. Therefore, you can congratulate yourself on being controlled into a jackpot gaming state.

Furthermore, regardless of the number of times remaining until time saving state B (play time), the size of the characters that make up the remaining number of times until play time is the same, and the size of the letters that make up the title letters of the jackpot start effect is the same. The size of the characters is larger than the size of the characters forming the remaining number of times until play time character. By doing this, no matter what number of times remain until time saving state B (play time)), the characters that make up the title characters of the jackpot start effect will make up the characters that make up the remaining number of times until play time. Since it is displayed larger than the text, you can congratulate yourself on being controlled into a jackpot gaming state.

In addition, the game control microcomputer 100 controls the time saving state B (play time) in the variable display caused by the game ball entering the first starting prize opening and the second starting winning opening in the time saving state B (playing time). A variable display is performed using the time saving B start variation pattern which has a longer variation time than the variation pattern normally used.

(Configuration of pachinko machine 1, etc.)
FIG. 12 is a front view of the pachinko gaming machine 1, showing the layout of the main components. A pachinko game machine (game machine) 1 is roughly divided into a game board (gauge board) 2 that constitutes a game board surface, and a game machine frame (base frame) 3 that supports and fixes the game board 2. A game area is formed on the game board 2, and a game ball as a game medium is fired from a predetermined ball launcher into this game area.

In addition, "variable display" of special symbols means, for example, to display a plurality of types of special symbols in a variable manner (the same applies to other symbols described later). The variations include updated display of a plurality of symbols, scroll display of a plurality of symbols, deformation of one or more symbols, enlargement/reduction of one or more symbols, and the like. In the variation of special symbols and normal symbols described below, a plurality of types of special symbols or normal symbols are updated and displayed. In the variation of decorative patterns described below, a plurality of types of decorative patterns are scrolled or updated, or one or more decorative patterns are deformed or enlarged/reduced. Incidentally, the variation also includes a mode in which a certain symbol is displayed blinking. At the end of the variable display, a predetermined special symbol is stopped and displayed (also referred to as derivation or derivation display) as a display result (the same applies to the variable display of other symbols described later). Note that the variable display may be expressed as a variable display or fluctuation.

The special symbol variably displayed on the first special symbol display device 4A is also referred to as a “first special symbol”, and the special symbol variably displayed on the second special symbol display device 4B is also referred to as a “second special symbol”. Further, a special map game using the first special map is also referred to as a "first special map game", and a special map game using the second special map is also referred to as a "second special map game". In addition, the number of special symbol display devices that perform variable display of special symbols may be one type.

An image display device 5 is provided near the center of the game area on the game board 2. The image display device 5 is composed of, for example, an LCD (liquid crystal display), an organic EL (electro luminescence), or the like, and displays various effect images. The image display device 5 may include a projector and a screen. The image display device 5 displays various effect images.

For example, on the screen of the image display device 5, in synchronization with the first special pattern game and the second special pattern game, decorative patterns (such as patterns showing numbers, etc.) as multiple types of decorative identification information different from the special pattern are displayed. A variable display is performed. Here, in synchronization with the first special figure game or the second special figure game, decorative figures are displayed variably (for example, up and down direction (scroll display and update display). In addition, the special figure game and the variable display of decorative symbols that are executed synchronously are collectively referred to as simply variable display.

Further, at the upper left of the display screen (display area) of the image display device 5, a first pending memory number (for example, the number "0", etc.), a second pending memory number (for example, the number "4", etc.), and a decoration are displayed. A display area 5S for displaying small symbols corresponding to the symbols is provided, and the small symbols are variably displayed in response to the variable display of the decorative symbols.

In addition, the first pending memory number, the second pending memory number, a pending display, a small symbol, an error display (not shown) indicating an error state that has occurred in the pachinko gaming machine 1, and a right-handed action prompting the player to perform a right-handed operation. Information images and time-saving remaining displays that indicate the remaining number of time-savings are displayed on the front side (upper layer) of the effect images (object images) such as characters, so that the effect images overlap and are stored in the first hold memory. While this prevents the visibility of the number, the number of secondary storage memories, small designs, and error displays from deteriorating, the decoration design is displayed on the back side (lower layer) than the production image. It may also be possible to prevent the visibility of the performance image from decreasing due to overlapping symbols.

Incidentally, the above-mentioned small symbol is also referred to as the fourth symbol. The fourth symbol is a symbol indicating that the special symbol (first special symbol, second special symbol) is variably displayed, and is displayed in a constant manner in a manner that is always visible on a display device such as the image display device 5, for example. Displayed variably depending on the action. By variably displaying the fourth symbol, an effect may be performed in which the effect content including the variable display of the decorative pattern momentarily disappears from the screen, or the movable body 32 may be displayed on all or part of the screen of the image display device 5. Even if the decorative pattern is difficult to recognize, such as when a display is performed that blocks the display, it is possible to recognize whether or not the display is currently in a variable display state. The performance control CPU 120 performs variable display of the fourth symbol corresponding to the first special symbol by operating the image display device 5 based on receiving the first variable display start command. Moreover, based on having received the second variable display start command, the performance control CPU 120 performs variable display of the fourth symbol corresponding to the second special symbol by operating the image display device 5.

At the bottom of the screen of the image display device 5, there is a display area (special figure pending storage display area 5U) for displaying a pending display corresponding to a variable display whose execution is pending and an active display corresponding to a variable display currently being executed. , active display area 5F) are provided. The pending display and the active display are collectively referred to as a variable display compatible display corresponding to the variable display. In addition, in this embodiment, a common special symbol pending storage display area 5U is provided for the first special symbol and the second special symbol, but this area represents a variable display in which execution of the first special symbol is pending. A first special figure pending memory display area in which a first pending display is displayed, and a second special figure pending memory display area in which a second pending display representing a variable display in which execution of the second special symbol is pending is displayed. , may be provided separately. In addition, in this embodiment, the special symbol holding memory display area 5U is a display area that displays a holding display according to the first special symbol when the gaming state is a normal state, and when the gaming state is a time saving state or a probability change state. If it is in the state, it is a display area that displays a pending display according to the second special symbol. Furthermore, active display area 5F is a display area that displays an active display according to the first special symbol when the gaming state is a normal state, and an active display according to the second special symbol when the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state. This is a display area that displays an active display.

A first hold indicator 25A and a second hold indicator 25B each including a plurality of LEDs are provided at predetermined positions on the game board 2.

When a game ball enters the first starting winning hole, a predetermined number (for example, three) of winning balls are paid out, and the first special symbol game can be started.

The variable prize winning ball device 6B (normal electric accessory) forms a second starting prize opening that changes between a closed state and an open state by a solenoid 81 (see FIG. 13). The variable prize winning ball device 6B includes, for example, an electric accessory having a movable piece that can be opened and closed, and when the solenoid 81 is in the OFF state, the movable piece is in the upright position, so that the game ball is placed in the second starting prize opening. It will be in a closed state where no entry will occur (it is also said that the second starting prize opening will be in a closed state). On the other hand, when the solenoid 81 is in the ON state, the movable piece of the variable winning ball device 6B is in the tilted position, so that the variable winning ball device 6B enters an open state in which the game ball can enter the second starting winning opening (second starting winning opening). It is also said that the mouth becomes open.) When the game ball enters the second starting winning hole, a predetermined number (for example, three) of winning balls are paid out, and the second special symbol game can be started. Incidentally, the variable winning ball device 6B is not limited to the above-described one as long as it can change between a closed state and an open state.

At predetermined positions on the game board 2 (in the example shown in FIG. 12, three locations on the lower left side of the game area and one location above the variable prize winning ball device 6B), the game board 2 is always kept in a constant open state by a predetermined ball receiving member. A general prize opening 10 is provided. In this case, when entering any of the general winning holes 10, a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls are paid out as prize balls.

A special variable winning ball device 7 having a big winning hole is provided between the winning ball device 6A and the variable winning ball device 6B. The special variable winning ball device 7 is equipped with a big winning hole door that is driven to open and close by a solenoid 82 (see FIG. 13), and has a big winning hole as a specific area that changes between an open state and a closed state by the big winning hole door. Form.

As an example, in the special variable winning ball device 7, when the solenoid 82 for the big winning hole door (special electric accessory) is in the OFF state, the big winning hole door closes the big winning hole, and the game ball is You will not be able to enter (pass through) the prize opening. On the other hand, in the special variable winning ball device 7, when the solenoid 82 for the big winning hole door is in the on state, the big winning hole door opens the big winning hole so that the game ball can easily enter the big winning hole. Become.

When game balls enter the grand prize opening, a predetermined number (for example, 14) of game balls are paid out as prize balls. When the game ball enters the big winning hole, more prize balls are paid out than when the game ball enters the first starting winning hole, the second starting winning hole, and the general winning hole 10, for example.

Entering the game ball into each winning hole including the general winning hole 10 is also referred to as "winning". In particular, winning in the starting opening (first starting winning opening, second starting winning opening) is also referred to as starting winning.

A normal symbol display 20 is provided at a predetermined position on the game board 2 (in the example shown in FIG. 12, at the lower left of the game area). As an example, the normal symbol display 20 is composed of a 7-segment LED, etc., and performs variable display of normal symbols as multiple types of normal identification information different from special symbols. The normal symbols are represented by numbers indicating "0" to "9" and lighting patterns such as "-". The normal pattern may include a pattern in which all LEDs are turned off. This variable display of ordinary symbols is also called a ordinary symbol game.

A passage gate 41 through which game balls can pass is provided on the right side of the image display device 5. Based on the game ball passing through the passage gate 41, a common figure game is executed.

A normal symbol holding display 25C is provided below the normal symbol display 20.

In the pachinko game machine 1, a stick controller 31A and a push button 31B are provided as detection means for detecting a player's movement (operation, etc.), but detection means other than these may be provided.

(Summary of game progress)
When a player rotates a ball-hitting operation handle 30 provided in the pachinko game machine 1, a game ball is launched toward a game area. When the game ball passes through the passage gate 41, the normal pattern display 20 starts the normal pattern game. In addition, if the game ball passes through the passage gate 41 during the period during which the previous Fuzu game was being executed (the game ball passed through the passing gate 41, but the Fuzu game based on the passage cannot be executed immediately), , the game based on the passage is suspended up to a predetermined upper limit (for example, 4).

In this general pattern game, if a specific normal pattern (a pattern per normal pattern) is stopped and displayed, the display result of the normal pattern becomes ``a common pattern hit''. On the other hand, if a normal symbol other than the ordinary symbol (ordinary symbol missed symbol) is stopped and displayed as a confirmed ordinary symbol, the display result of the ordinary symbol becomes "ordinary symbol missed". When it becomes a "normal map hit", opening control is performed to keep the variable winning ball device 6B open for a predetermined period of time (the second starting winning opening is brought into the open state).

When the game ball enters the first starting winning hole formed in the winning ball device 6A, the first special symbol game by the first special symbol display device 4A is started.

When a game ball enters the second starting winning hole formed in the variable winning ball device 6B, a second special symbol game by the second special symbol display device 4B is started.

In addition, if the game ball enters the starting winning hole (winning) during the period when the special drawing game is being executed or during the period when the jackpot game state described below is being controlled (a starting winning has occurred, but based on the starting winning If the special figure game cannot be executed immediately), the execution of the special figure game based on the entry is suspended until a predetermined upper limit number (for example, 4).

In the special pattern game, if a specific special pattern (a jackpot pattern, e.g. "7", the actual pattern differs depending on the jackpot type described later) is stopped and displayed as a confirmed special pattern, it becomes a "jackpot" and the jackpot pattern If a special symbol (missing symbol, for example "-") different from the above is stopped and displayed, it becomes a "missing" symbol.

After the display result in the special figure game becomes a "jackpot", the game is controlled to be in a jackpot game state as an advantageous state for the player.

In the jackpot game state, the jackpot formed by the special variable winning ball device 7 is opened in a predetermined manner. The open state is determined by the timing when a predetermined period of time (for example, 29 seconds or 1.8 seconds) elapses, or the timing until the number of game balls that enter the grand prize opening reaches a predetermined number (for example, 9 balls). This will continue until the earliest of the two. The predetermined period is the upper limit period during which the big prize opening can be opened in one round, and hereinafter also referred to as the upper limit opening period. One cycle in which the big prize opening is opened in this way is called a round (round game). In the jackpot game state, the round can be repeated until it reaches a predetermined upper limit number of times (15 times, 2 times, etc.).

In the jackpot game state, the player can receive a prize ball by entering the game ball into the jackpot opening. Therefore, the jackpot gaming state is an advantageous state for the player. The greater the number of rounds in the jackpot gaming state and the longer the open upper limit period, the more advantageous it is for the player.

Incidentally, the jackpot type is set in "jackpot". For example, we prepare multiple types of opening modes for the jackpot (number of rounds and maximum opening period) and gaming states after the jackpot gaming state (normal state, time-saving state, variable probability state, etc.), and set the jackpot type accordingly. has been done. As the jackpot types, there may be provided a jackpot type in which many prize balls can be obtained, a jackpot type in which few prize balls can be obtained, or a jackpot type in which few prize balls can be obtained.

After the jackpot gaming state ends, depending on the above-mentioned jackpot type, it may be controlled to a time saving state or a variable probability state.

In the time-saving state, control (time-saving control) is executed to shorten the average special symbol variation time (period for varying the special symbol) compared to the normal state. In the short time state, by shortening the average fluctuation time (period for changing the general pattern) than in the normal state, and by increasing the probability of hitting the normal pattern in the general drawing game compared to the normal state, etc. Control (high opening control, high base control) that makes it easier for game balls to enter the second starting prize opening is also executed. The time saving state is a state in which the variation efficiency of the special symbols (especially the second special symbol) is improved, so it is an advantageous state for the player.

In the variable probability state (probability variable state), in addition to the time saving control, variable probability control is executed in which the probability that the displayed result is a "jackpot" is higher than in the normal state. The variable probability state is a state that is more advantageous to the player because it improves the efficiency of changing the special symbols and is also a state where it is easy to hit the jackpot.

The time saving state and the variable probability state continue until any one of the end conditions is met first, such as the execution of the special figure game a predetermined number of times and the start of the next jackpot game state. A condition where the termination condition is that the special figure game has been executed a predetermined number of times is also called number-cutting (number-cutting time reduction, number-cutting probability variable, etc.).

A normal state is a gaming state other than a special state such as an advantageous state such as a jackpot game state that is advantageous to the player, a time saving state, or a variable probability state, and the display result in the Fuzu game is "Fuzu hit". The pachinko game machine 1, such as the probability and the probability that the display result in the special figure game will be a "jackpot", is set to the initial setting state of the pachinko game machine 1 (for example, when a system reset is performed, a predetermined return after the power is turned on). This state is controlled in the same way as when no processing is executed).

A state in which variable probability control is being executed is also referred to as a high probability state, and a state in which variable probability control is not executed is also referred to as a low probability state. A state in which time saving control is being executed is also referred to as a high base state, and a state in which time saving control is not being executed is also referred to as a low base state. Combining these, the time-saving state is also called a low-probability high-base state, the variable-probability state is a high-probability high-base state, and the normal state is called a low-probability low-base state. The high certainty state and low base state is also referred to as the high certainty low base state.

Incidentally, the gaming state may change based on the fact that the game ball has passed through a specific area (for example, a specific area within the big winning opening) during the jackpot gaming state. For example, when the game ball passes through a specific area, the control may be changed to a variable probability state after the jackpot game state.

(Progress of production, etc.)
In the pachinko game machine 1, various effects (effects for notifying the progress of the game or for enlivening the game) are executed according to the progress of the game. The performance will be explained below. The effect is performed by displaying various effect images on the image display device 5, but in addition to or in place of the display, audio output from the speakers 8L and 8R and the game effect lamp 9 are performed. It may be performed as an effect using lighting or extinguishing of the lights, movement of the movable body 32, or any effect device including some or all of these.

As a performance executed according to the progress of the game, the "left", "middle", "right" decorative pattern display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R provided on the image display device 5 display the first special pattern game or the first special pattern display area 5L, 5C, and 5R. 2. Corresponding to the start of the special figure game, variable display of decorative symbols is started. At the timing when the display result (also referred to as a fixed special pattern) is stopped and displayed in the first special pattern game or the second special pattern game, the fixed decorative pattern (a combination of three decorative patterns) that is the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern ) is also stopped and displayed (derived).

During the period from when the variable display of the decorative symbols starts until it ends, the mode of the variable display of the decorative symbols may become a predetermined reach mode (reach is established). Here, the reach mode refers to the variable display of decorative symbols that are not yet displayed while the decorative symbols that are stopped and displayed on the screen of the image display device 5 form part of a jackpot combination that will be described later. This refers to the manner in which the situation continues.

Furthermore, a ready-to-win effect is executed in response to the above-mentioned ready-to-win mode being set during the variable display of the decorative symbols. In the pachinko gaming machine 1, the percentage of display results (display results of special pattern games and display results of variable display of decorative symbols) becoming a "jackpot" (also referred to as jackpot reliability or jackpot expectation level) is determined depending on the performance mode. A plurality of different types of reach effects are executed. The reach performance includes, for example, normal reach and super reach, which has higher jackpot reliability than normal reach.

When the display result of the special figure game becomes a "jackpot", a fixed decorative pattern that becomes a predetermined jackpot combination is derived as a display result of the variable display of decorative patterns on the screen of the image display device 5 (decorative pattern). The display result of the variable display of symbols is a "jackpot"). As an example, the same decorative symbols (for example, "7", etc.) are all stopped and displayed on predetermined valid lines in the "left", "middle", and "right" decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R. .

In the case of a "probable variable jackpot" that is controlled to a variable probability state after the end of the jackpot gaming state, odd-numbered decorative symbols (for example, "7", etc.) are stopped and displayed, and the variable probability state is changed after the jackpot gaming state ends. In the case of an uncontrolled "uncertain variable jackpot (normal jackpot)", even-numbered decorative symbols (for example, "6", etc.) may be stopped and displayed all together. In this case, the odd-numbered decorative patterns are also referred to as variable probability patterns, and the even-numbered decorative patterns are also referred to as non-probable variable patterns (normal patterns). After reaching the reach mode with non-probability variable symbols, a promotion performance that ultimately becomes a "probability variable jackpot" may be executed.

When the display result of the special pattern game is "miss", the mode of variable display of the decorative pattern does not become the reach mode, and the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern is a fixed decorative pattern (" ) may be stopped and displayed (the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern may be "non-reach out"). In addition, if the display result is "miss", after the variable display mode of the decorative pattern becomes the reach mode, the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern is a predetermined reach combination that is not a jackpot combination ("reach is off"). ) may be stopped and displayed (the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern may be "out of reach").

The performances that can be performed by the pachinko gaming machine 1 also include displaying the above-mentioned variable display compatible display (pending display and active display). In addition, as other effects, for example, a preview effect that foretells the reliability of the jackpot is executed during the variable display of the decorative symbols. The preview performance includes a preview performance that foretells the reliability of a jackpot in a variable display that is currently being executed, and a preview performance that foretells the reliability of a jackpot in a variable display before execution (a variable display whose execution is pending). As the pre-read preview performance, a performance that changes the display mode of the variable display compatible display (suspended display or active display) to a different mode than usual may be performed.

In addition, in the image display device 5, by temporarily stopping the decorative pattern during the variable display of the decorative pattern and then restarting the variable display, one variable display can be made to appear pseudo as multiple variable displays. A pseudo-continuous performance may also be executed.

Even during the jackpot game state, a jackpot performance for notifying the jackpot game state is executed. As the jackpot performance, a performance that notifies the number of rounds or a promotion performance that indicates that the value of the jackpot game state is improved may be executed.

Further, for example, when a special figure game or the like is not being executed, a demonstration image is displayed on the image display device 5 (a customer waiting demonstration effect is executed).

It is configured to include an output port for transmitting a signal for controlling (driving) the display 25A, the second hold display 25B, the ordinary card hold display 25C, etc., and a solenoid drive signal.

The switch circuit 110 receives detection signals (when a game ball passes or A detection signal indicating that the switch has entered and the switch has been turned on) is taken in and transmitted to the game control microcomputer 100. The transmission of the detection signal means that the passage or entry of the game ball has been detected.

A reset signal, a power-off signal, and a clear signal from the power supply board 17 are taken into the switch circuit 110 and transmitted to the game control microcomputer 100. The reset signal is an operation stop signal for stopping the operation of a control circuit such as the game control microcomputer 100, and can be output using either a power supply monitoring circuit, a watchdog timer built-in IC, or a system reset IC. Good to have. The power-off signal becomes an OFF state when a predetermined power supply voltage used in the pachinko game machine 1 exceeds a predetermined value, and becomes an ON state when a period in which the predetermined power supply voltage is below a predetermined value continues for a power-off reference time or longer. Become. The clear signal is turned on, for example, when a clear switch 92 provided on the power supply board 17 is pressed.

The output circuit 111 sends a solenoid drive signal (for example, a signal to turn on the solenoid 81 and the solenoid 82) from the game control microcomputer 100 to the solenoid 81 for the normal electric accessory and the solenoid 82 for the big prize opening door. Transmit.

The payout control board 006SG030 includes a payout device that is driven to pay out a predetermined number of game balls (for example, 3 balls, 5 balls, 10 balls, 15 balls, etc.) to the player based on reception of the payout signal. The device 006SG031 is connected to a game ball detection sensor 006SG032 provided in a payout passage (not shown) through which game balls put out by the payout device 006SG031 pass, and receives information from the game ball detection sensor 006SG032. It is possible to stop driving the payout device 006SG031 depending on the form of the game ball detection signal.

Further, the payout control board 006SG030 includes a handle sensor 006SG034 for detecting the amount of operation by the player, and a touch ring 006SG035 (touch sensor) for detecting that the player is holding the ball batting operation handle 30. Based on the signals input from these sensors, the payout control board 006SG030 controls the firing device 006SG033 that can fire game balls onto the game board 2. Further, a signal indicating whether or not the touch ring 006SG35 is detected and a signal indicating that a game ball has been launched by the firing device 006SG033 are input from the payout control board 006SG030 to the game control microcomputer 100 of the main board 11. .

In addition, the glass plate image 006SG301A includes a first continuous cracking effect, a second continuous breaking effect, a dialogue preview effect, a background change effect A, a background change effect B, a pseudo continuous effect, a reach suggestion effect, a weak development effect, and a strong development effect, which will be described later. It is also an image (broken target image) that is displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301 at the start timing of the cracking effect (the cracking timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A) in the effect A, the strong development effect B, the cut-in effect, and the result notification effect.

Furthermore, as will be described later, a first continuous cracking performance, a second continuous cracking performance, a dialogue preview performance, a background change performance A, a background change performance B, a pseudo continuous performance, a reach suggestion performance, a weak development performance, a strong development performance A, The start timing of the cracking effect in strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect is such that the switching between the display of glass plate image 006SG301 and glass plate image 006SG301A is invisible to the player due to the display of white-out image 006SG303. . For this reason, in the present embodiment, the glass plate image 006SG301 in which the crack is displayed can be switched to the glass plate image 006SG301A without the player noticing, so that it cannot be assumed from the crack displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301. It is possible to realize the cracking (moving display of the fragment image 006SG302), and it is possible to strongly impress the player with the cracking effect.

In this embodiment, by superimposing each image drawn and arranged in these layer 1 image drawing area to layer 10 image drawing area, it is possible to generate an image to be displayed on the display screen of the image display device 5. . Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 15 and 16, the image drawn in the layer 1 image drawing area is set to have the lowest display priority, and the image drawn in the layer 2 image drawing area is set to the layer 1 image drawing area. The display priority is set higher than the image drawn in the layer 3 image drawing area, and the display priority is set higher than the image drawn in the layer 2 image drawing area. Images drawn in the layer 4 image drawing area have a higher display priority than images drawn in the layer 3 image drawing area, and images drawn in the layer 5 image drawing area are set to have higher display priority than images drawn in the layer 4 image drawing area. The display priority is set higher than the image to be drawn, and the image drawn in the layer 6 image drawing area is set to have a higher display priority than the image drawn in the layer 5 image drawing area. Images drawn in the layer 7 image drawing area are set to have a higher display priority than images drawn in the layer 6 image drawing area, and images drawn in the layer 8 image drawing area are drawn in the layer 7 image drawing area. The display priority is set higher than the image drawn in the layer 9 image drawing area, and the display priority is set higher than the image drawn in the layer 8 image drawing area, and the display priority is set higher than the image drawn in the layer 8 image drawing area. The image drawn in the image drawing area is set to have a higher display priority than the image drawn in the layer 9 image drawing area. Further, when a layer 11 image drawing area is further arranged in the VRAM area, the image drawn in the layer 11 image drawing area is set to have a higher display priority than the image drawn in the layer 10 image drawing area.

In other words, the image drawn in the layer 1 image drawing area is the lowest image displayed in the image display device 5, and the image drawn in the layer 2 image drawing area is the layer 1 image drawing area in the image display device 5. It is an image that is displayed (displayed with priority) in an upper layer than the image to be drawn, and the image drawn in the layer 3 image drawing area is in the upper layer than the image drawn in the layer 2 image drawing area in the image display device 5. (priority display), and the image drawn in the layer 4 image drawing area is displayed on the image display device 5 above the image drawn in the layer 3 image drawing area (priority display). The image drawn in the layer 5 image drawing area is an image that is displayed in a higher layer (displayed preferentially) than the image drawn in the layer 4 image drawing area in the image display device 5, The image drawn in the layer 6 image drawing area is an image that is displayed in a higher layer (displayed preferentially) than the image drawn in the layer 5 image drawing area in the image display device 5, and is drawn in the layer 7 image drawing area. The image drawn in the image display device 5 is an image that is displayed in a higher layer (displayed preferentially) than the image drawn in the layer 6 image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 8 image drawing area is an image drawn in the layer 8 image drawing area. In the image display device 5, the image is displayed (displayed with priority) in an upper layer than the image drawn in the layer 7 image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 9 image drawing area is displayed in the layer 8 image drawing area in the image display device 5. It is an image that is displayed in a higher layer (displayed preferentially) than the image drawn in the layer 10 image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 10 image drawing area is higher than the image drawn in the layer 9 image drawing area in the image display device 5. This is an image that is displayed in the upper layer (displayed with priority). Further, when a layer 11 image drawing area is further arranged in the VRAM area, the image drawn in the layer 11 image drawing area is displayed in the upper layer than the image drawn in the layer 10 image drawing area on the image display device 5. (priority display) image. Furthermore, although it has been explained that there is a layer 1 image drawing area for drawing and arranging the background image, as a substitute for the layer 1 image drawing area, a layer 1-1 image drawing area, a layer 1-2 image drawing area, a layer 1-2 image drawing area, It may also have layer 1-3 image drawing areas. In this case, a normal background image (first background image 006SG081, sixth background image), which will be described later, can be drawn in the layer 1-1 image drawing area, and a chance background, which will be described later, can be drawn in the layer 1-2 image drawing area. Images (second background image 006SG082, seventh background image), normal reach background image, super reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088), and super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084) can be drawn. , In the layer 1-3 image drawing area, it is possible to draw a background effect image (background effect image 006SG322) and a jackpot notification background image (fifth background image 006SG085), which will be described later. The image drawn in the layer 1-2 image drawing area has a lower display priority on the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the layer 2 image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 1-2 image drawing area is a layer 1-3 image. The image has a lower display priority on the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 1-1 image drawing area is drawn in the layer 1-2 image drawing area.

The random number circuit 124 updatesably counts numerical data indicating various random numbers (random numbers for effects) used to execute various effects. The performance random number may be updated by the performance control CPU 120 executing a predetermined computer program (updated by software).

The I/O 125 mounted on the production control board 12 is an input port for receiving production control commands transmitted from the main board 11, for example, and for transmitting various signals (video signal, sound designation signal, lamp signal). It consists of an output port and an output port.

Boards other than the main board 11, such as the production control board 12, the audio control board 13, and the lamp control board 14, are also referred to as subboards. A plurality of sub-boards may be provided for each function as in the pachinko gaming machine 1, or one sub-board may be configured to have a plurality of functions.

FIG. 14(A) is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the content of the production control command used in this embodiment. The production control command has, for example, a 2-byte configuration, with the first byte indicating MODE (command classification) and the second byte indicating EXT (command type). The first bit (bit 7) of MODE data is always set to "0", and the first bit of EXT data is set to "0". Note that the command format shown in FIG. 14(A) is an example, and other command formats may be used. Further, in this example, the control command is made up of two control signals, but the number of control signals making up the control command may be one, or may be three or more.

In the example shown in FIG. 17(A), command 8001H is a first variable display start command that specifies the start of variable display in a special pattern game using the first special pattern on the first special pattern display device 4A. Command 8002H is a second variable display start command that specifies the start of variable display in the special pattern game using the second special pattern on the second special pattern display device 4B. The command 81XXH is a decoration that is variably displayed in the "left", "middle", and "right" decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R of the image display device 5 in response to the variable display of special symbols in the special symbol game. This is a variation pattern specification command that specifies a variation pattern (variation time (variable display time)) of a symbol (also referred to as a performance symbol). Here, XXH indicates an unspecified hexadecimal number, and may be any value that can be arbitrarily set according to the content of the instruction by the production control command. Note that in the variation pattern designation command, different EXT data is set depending on the variation pattern to be specified.

Command 8CXXH is a variable display result designation command, and is an effect control command that designates variable display results such as special symbols and decorative symbols. The variable display result specification command, for example, as shown in FIG. 17(B), determines whether the variable display result (also referred to as variable display result) is a "miss" or "jackpot" (predetermined result) or , different EXT data is set depending on the determination result (jackpot type determination result) as to which of a plurality of types is the jackpot type when the variable display result is "jackpot".

Among the variable display result designation commands, for example, as shown in FIG. 17(B), command 8C00H is a first variable display result designation command that indicates a predetermined result that the variable display result is "miss". Command 8C01H is a second variable display result designation command that notifies the pre-determined result that the variable display result is "jackpot" and the jackpot type is "probable variable jackpot A" and the jackpot type determination result. Command 8C02H is a third variable display result designation command that notifies the pre-determined result that the variable display result is "jackpot" and the jackpot type is "probable variable jackpot B" and the jackpot type determination result. Command 8C03H is a fourth variable display result designation command that notifies the pre-determined result that the variable display result is "jackpot" and the jackpot type is "probable variable jackpot C" and the jackpot type determination result. Command 8C04H is a fifth variable display result designation command that notifies the predetermined result that the variable display result is "jackpot" and the jackpot type is "uncertain variable jackpot" and the jackpot type determination result.

Command 8F00H is a symbol confirmation command that specifies stopping (determination) of variation of decorative symbols in each of the "left", "middle", and "right" decorative symbol display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R in the image display device 5. Command 9000H is a power-on designation command that specifies that the pachinko game machine 1 has been cold started (that the power has been turned on with the clear switch 92 being pressed (power-on with initialization)). Note that cold start refers to the process of initializing the data when the power is turned on, without restoring the data that existed before the power was turned on, and then putting the gaming machine in a state where it can execute various processes. . Command 9200H is a power failure recovery designation command that specifies that the pachinko game machine has been hot started (that the power has been turned on without the clear switch 92 being pressed (power-on without initialization)). Note that hot start refers to putting the gaming machine into a state where various processes can be executed based on backed up data when the power is turned on. Since hot start does not involve initialization, it is also referred to as power-on without initialization. The command 95XXH is a gaming state designation command that designates the current gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine 1. In the gaming state designation command, different EXT data is set depending on the current gaming state in the pachinko gaming machine 1, for example. As a specific example, command 9500H is a first gaming state designation command corresponding to a gaming state in which neither time saving control nor probability variable control is performed (low probability low base state, normal state), and command 9501H is a command in which time saving control is performed. The command 9502H is used as a second gaming state designation command corresponding to a gaming state in which time saving control and probability variable control are performed (low probability high base state, time saving state), and a gaming state in which time saving control and probability variable control are performed (high probability high base state). The third gaming state designation command corresponds to the base state and variable probability state. Note that the high probability/high base state may simply be referred to as the "variable probability state".

The command A0XXH is a winning start designation command (also referred to as a "fanfare command") that designates the display of an effect image indicating the start of a jackpot game. Command A1XXH is a jackpot opening notification command that notifies that the jackpot is in an open state during the jackpot gaming state. Command A2XXH is a post-opening notification command for the jackpot that notifies that the jackpot has changed from the open state to the closed state during the jackpot gaming state. Command A3XXH is a winning end designation command that designates the display of the effect image at the end of the jackpot game.

In the winning start designation command and the winning end designation command, for example, the same EXT data as the variable display result designation command may be set, so that different EXT data may be set depending on the predetermined result or the jackpot type determination result. . Alternatively, in the winning start designation command and the winning end designation command, the correspondence relationship between the pre-determined result and the jackpot type determination result and the set EXT data may be made different from the correspondence relationship in the variable display result designation command. . In the notification command that the big winning hole is open and the notification command after the big winning hole is opened, different EXT data is set, for example, corresponding to the number of rounds to be executed in the jackpot state (for example, "0" to "10"), which will be described later. .

The command B100H is based on the fact that the game ball that passed through (entered) the first starting prize opening formed by the winning ball device 6A was detected by the first starting opening switch 22A and a starting prize (first starting winning) occurred. This is a first starting opening winning designation command that notifies that the first starting condition for executing the special symbol game using the first special symbol on the first special symbol display device 4A is satisfied. The command B200H is based on the fact that the game ball that has passed through (entered) the second starting prize opening formed by the variable winning ball device 6B is detected by the second starting opening switch 22B and a starting prize (second starting prize) has occurred. , is a second starting opening winning designation command that notifies that the second starting condition for executing the special symbol game using the second special symbol on the second special symbol display device 4B is satisfied.

The command C1XXH is a first pending memory number notification command that notifies the first special figure pending memory number in order to make it possible to specify the special figure pending memory number. Command C2XXH is a second pending memory number notification command that notifies the second special figure pending memory number in order to make it possible to specify the special figure pending memory number. The first pending memory number notification command is, for example, when the first starting opening winning designation command is sent based on the game ball passing (entering) the first starting winning opening and the first starting condition being satisfied. , is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12. The second pending storage number notification command is, for example, when the second starting opening winning designation command is sent based on the game ball passing (entering) the second starting winning opening and the second starting condition being satisfied. , is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12. In addition, the first pending memory number notification command and the second pending memory number notification command are used when either the first start condition or the second start condition is satisfied (when the number of pending memories decreases), the special figure game It may also be transmitted in response to the start of execution.

Command C4XXH and command C6XXH are production control commands (winning determination result designation commands) that indicate the content of the winning determination result. Among these, the command C4XXH is a symbol designation command that indicates whether the variable display result is a "jackpot" and the type of jackpot (probable variable, non-probable variable, sudden probability) as a winning determination result. In addition, the command C6XXH indicates the result of determining whether the random value for determining the fluctuation pattern is "non-reach", "super reach", or "other (normal reach)" as the winning determination result. This is a variable category command.

Instead of the first pending memory number notification command and the second pending memory number notification command, a total pending memory number notification command that notifies the total number of pending memories may be transmitted. That is, a total number of pending memories notification command may be used to notify an increase (or decrease) in the total number of pending memories.

Note that the commands shown in FIG. 17(A) are just examples; some of these commands may be omitted, different commands may be used in place of these commands, or these commands may be omitted. You may also add commands different from . For example, a prize ball number notification command that allows you to specify the number of prize balls that will be paid out based on the game balls entering each winning slot, and a gate notification command that allows you to notify that the game ball has passed through the passage gate 41. A passage notification command, a notification command for notifying the remaining number of variable display times for which probability change control or time saving control will be executed, etc. may be provided.

FIG. 18 is an explanatory diagram illustrating random numbers counted on the main board 11 side. As shown in FIG. 18, on the side of the main board 11, a random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result, a random number MR2 for determining the jackpot type, a random number MR3 for determining the fluctuation pattern, and a random number MR3 for determining the regular figure display result. Numerical data representing each of the random numbers MR4 is controlled to be countable. Note that random numbers other than these may be used to enhance the gaming effect. The random numbers used to control the progress of games are also referred to as gaming random numbers.

The random number circuit 104 may be one that counts numerical data indicating some or all of these random numbers MR1 to MR4. The CPU 103 uses a random counter different from the random number circuit 104, such as a random counter provided in a game control counter setting section (not shown), to update various numerical data by software, thereby updating the random numbers MR1 to MR4. Numerical data indicating a portion may be counted.

The random number value MR1 for determining the special pattern display result is a random number value used to determine whether or not to control a variable display result such as a special pattern in a special pattern game as a "jackpot" into a jackpot game state. For example, It takes a value in the range of "0" to "65536". The random number MR2 for determining the jackpot type determines whether the jackpot type is "probable variable jackpot A", "probable variable jackpot B", "probable variable jackpot C", or "non-probable variable jackpot" when the variable display result is "jackpot". This is a random number value used to determine the value, and takes, for example, a value in the range of "0" to "100".

The random number value MR3 for determining the variation pattern is a random number value used to determine the variation pattern in the variable display of special symbols and decorative symbols to one of multiple types prepared in advance, and is, for example, "0" to " Takes a value in the range of ``997''.

The random number MR4 for determining the general pattern display result is used to determine whether the variable display result in the general pattern game by the normal pattern display 20 is to be "normal pattern hit" or "normal pattern hit". This is a random number value, for example, in the range of "3" to "13".

FIG. 19 shows a configuration example of a display result determination table stored in the ROM 101. In this embodiment, a common display result determination table is used for the first special figure and the second special figure as the display result determination table, but the present invention is not limited to this. Separate display result determination tables may be used for the figure and the second special figure.

The display result determination table determines the variable display result in a special symbol game using the first special symbol by the first special symbol display device 4A or a special symbol game using the second special symbol by the second special symbol display device 4B. Before the special symbol is derived and displayed, it is referenced to determine whether or not to control the variable display result to a "jackpot" game state based on the random number MR1 for determining the special symbol display result. It's a table.

In the display result determination table, the disturbance for special figure display result determination is determined depending on whether the gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 is a normal state, a time-saving state (low probability state), or a variable probability state (high probability state). A numerical value (judgment value) to be compared with the numerical value MR1 is assigned to the special figure display result of "jackpot" or "miss".

In the display result determination table, the table data indicating the determination value to be compared with the random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result is the determination result of whether or not to treat the special figure display result as a "jackpot" and control the jackpot gaming state. This is the judgment data that is assigned. In the display result determination table, 22 shows that when the gaming state is in a variable probability state (high probability state), more judgment values are determined as a "jackpot" special figure than when the gaming state is in the normal state or the time saving state (low probability state). Assigned to display results. As a result, pachinko play rr is compared to the probability (approximately 1/300 in this embodiment) of determining that the special figure display result is a "jackpot" and the control is controlled to a jackpot gaming state when the pachinko game is in a time-saving state (low probability state). Therefore, the probability of determining the special figure display result as a "jackpot" and controlling it to a jackpot gaming state increases (about 1/30 in this embodiment). That is, in the display result determination table, when the gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 is in a variable probability state (high probability state), the probability that the control is determined to be in the jackpot gaming state is higher than when it is in the normal state or the time saving state. The determination data is assigned to the determination result of whether or not to control the jackpot game state so that the value becomes higher.

FIG. 20(A) shows a configuration example of a jackpot type determination table stored in the ROM 101. In the jackpot type determination table in this embodiment, when it is determined that the special figure display result is a "jackpot" and the jackpot gaming state is controlled, the jackpot type is set to one of a plurality of types based on the random number value MR2 for jackpot type determination. This is a table that is referenced to determine the In the jackpot type determination table, the special symbol for which variable display (fluctuating display) was performed in the special symbol game is the first special symbol (special symbol game by the first special symbol display device 4A) or the second special symbol (the special symbol game by the first special symbol display device 4A) 2 special pattern display device 4B), the numerical value (judgment value) compared with the random value MR2 for determining the jackpot type may be "non-probable variable jackpot", "probable variable jackpot A", or " They are assigned to a plurality of jackpot types such as "probable variable jackpot B" and "probable variable jackpot C."

Here, to explain the jackpot type in this embodiment using FIG. 20(B), in this embodiment, as the jackpot type, probability change control and time saving control are executed after the end of the jackpot game state. ``Probable variable jackpot A'', ``probable variable jackpot B'', and ``probable variable jackpot C'' that transition to a high-probability, high-base state, and ``probable variable jackpot A'', ``probable variable jackpot B'', and ``probable variable jackpot C'' that transition to a low-probable, high-base state with only time-saving control being executed after the end of the jackpot gaming state. "Uncertain variable jackpot" is set.

The jackpot game state by "probable variable jackpot A" is a normal open jackpot in which rounds are repeatedly executed 10 times (so-called 10 rounds) in which the special variable winning ball device 7 is changed to the first state advantageous to the player. On the other hand, the jackpot game state of "Probable Variable Jackpot B" is a normal open jackpot in which rounds are repeated five times (so-called 5 rounds) in which the special variable winning ball device 7 is changed to the first state advantageous to the player. . The jackpot game state by the "probable variable jackpot C" is a normal open jackpot in which rounds are repeatedly executed twice (so-called 2 rounds) in which the special variable winning ball device 7 is changed to the first state advantageous to the player. In addition, the jackpot game state due to the "non-probable variable jackpot" is a normal open jackpot in which rounds in which the special variable winning ball device 7 is changed to the first state advantageous to the player are repeatedly executed five times (so-called 5 rounds). . Therefore, the "probable variable jackpot A" is referred to as the 10 round (10R) fixed variable jackpot, the "probable variable jackpot B" is referred to as the 5 round (5R) variable variable jackpot, and the "probable variable jackpot C" is referred to as the 2 round (2R) variable variable jackpot. Sometimes called.

The probability variable control and time saving control that are started after the end of the jackpot gaming states of probability variable jackpot A to probability variable jackpot C are terminated on the condition that the jackpot gaming state is controlled. In addition, the time saving control that is started after the end of the jackpot gaming state of the non-probable variable jackpot is controlled to the jackpot gaming state until the 100 variable displays are finished, or until the 100 variable displays are finished. It will be terminated on the condition that. Therefore, if the jackpot that occurs again is one of the probability variable jackpot A to probability variable jackpot C, the probability variable control and time saving control are executed again after the jackpot gaming state ends, so that the jackpot gaming state passes through the normal state. This is a so-called consecutive home situation that occurs continuously without interruption. In other words, the variable probability state in this embodiment is a gaming state that continues until the variable display result becomes a jackpot regardless of the number of variable displays, while the time saving state in this embodiment is a gaming state that continues until the variable display result becomes a jackpot. If not, the game state is controlled to the normal state by executing variable display 100 times. Therefore, the time saving state is also a gaming state that is controlled when the consecutive game state can end.

In the setting example of the jackpot type determination table shown in FIG. The allocation of determination values to the jackpot types of "B", "probable variable jackpot C", and "non-probable variable jackpot" are different. In other words, when the variably displayed special figure is the first special figure, the judgment value in the predetermined range (value in the range of "81" to "100") is "Probable Variable Jackpot B" or "Probable Variable Jacket B" with a small number of rounds. If the variablely displayed special figure is the second special figure, a judgment value is assigned to the jackpot type of "probable variable jackpot B" or "probable variable jackpot C". It has not been done. With such settings, the jackpot type is determined to be one of a plurality of types based on the first starting condition for starting the special pattern game using the first special pattern displayed by the first special pattern display device 4A. and a case where the jackpot type is determined to be one of a plurality of types based on the fulfillment of the second start condition for starting the special symbol game using the second special symbol by the second special symbol display device 4B. Therefore, the ratio at which the jackpot type is determined to be "probable variable jackpot B" or "probable variable jackpot C" with a small number of rounds can be varied. In particular, in the special game using the second special map, the jackpot type is not determined to be "probable variable jackpot B" or "probable variable jackpot C" to control the jackpot state with a small number of rounds, so for example, due to time saving control. Due to the high opening control, in a game state in which game balls are likely to enter the second starting prize opening formed by the variable winning ball device 6B, the game interest is reduced by avoiding frequent occurrence of a jackpot state in which the number of prize balls obtained is small. This can be prevented.

In addition, in the setting example of the jackpot type determination table shown in FIG. 20(A), the assignment of the determination value to the jackpot type of "non-probable variation" is based on whether it is the first special figure game or the second special figure game. Therefore, the probability of a non-probability variable jackpot and the probability of a probability variable jackpot are the same regardless of whether it is the first special pattern game or the second special pattern game. ing.

Therefore, as mentioned above, depending on the fact that the allocation of judgment values for "Probable Variable Jackpot B" and "Probable Variable Jackpot C" differs depending on whether it is a special game of the first special figure or the second special figure. Therefore, the allocation of the judgment value for "Probable Variable Jackpot A" also differs depending on whether it is the first or second special map game, and for "Probable Variable Jackpot A" with a large number of rounds, It is set so that it is easier to decide if it is a special figure game of a special figure than if it is a special figure game of the first special figure.

In addition, even in the case of the special game of the second special figure, the judgment value in a predetermined range that is different from the case of the special figure game of the first special figure is the jackpot of "probable strange jackpot B" or "probable strange jackpot C". It may be possible to assign it to a type. For example, in the case of a special pattern game with the second special pattern, the judgment value is smaller than in the case of a special pattern game with the first special pattern, for the jackpot type of "probable strange jackpot B" or "probable strange jackpot C". May be assigned. Alternatively, the type of jackpot may be determined by referring to common table data regardless of whether it is a first special figure game or a second special figure game.

FIGS. 21(A) and 21(B) show fluctuation patterns in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the display results are variable depending on whether the gaming state is a normal state (low probability low base state), a time saving state or a variable probability state (low probability high base state or high probability high base state). Among the cases in which the result is a "miss", the variable display mode of the decorative pattern is "non-reach" and the case in which it is "reach", and the case in which the variable display result is a "jackpot" A plurality of variation patterns are prepared in advance in accordance with the above. In addition, the variation pattern corresponding to the case where the variable display result is "miss" and the variation display mode of the decorative symbol is "non-reach" is called a non-reach variation pattern (also referred to as "non-reach variation pattern"), A variation pattern corresponding to a case where the variable display result is "miss" and the variation display mode of the decorative symbol is "reach" is referred to as a reach variation pattern (also referred to as "reach variation pattern"). Furthermore, the non-reach variation pattern and the reach variation pattern are included in the off-reach variation pattern corresponding to the case where the variable display result is "off". A variation pattern corresponding to a case where the variable display result is a "jackpot" is referred to as a jackpot variation pattern.

The jackpot fluctuation pattern and the reach fluctuation pattern include a normal reach fluctuation pattern in which a normal reach reach effect is executed, and a super reach fluctuation pattern in which a super reach reach effect is executed.

In this embodiment, when the gaming state is a normal state (low probability low base state), a pseudo continuous performance including a temporary stop of decorative symbols and a variable display again is executed once as a super reach variation pattern during variable display. After that, the super reach α reach effect is executed via the normal reach and the variable display result is a miss or a jackpot (PA2-2, PB1-2), the pseudo continuous effect is not executed and the reach effect is executed via the normal reach Variable patterns in which the super reach β reach effect is executed and the variable display result is a miss or jackpot (PA2-3, PB1-3), and the normal reach and super reach α reach after the pseudo continuous effect is executed twice. A reach effect of super reach β is executed via the effect, and variable patterns (PA2-4, PB1-4) are provided in which the variable display result is a miss or a jackpot. In addition, the reach performance of super reach α in this embodiment corresponds to the weak S reach performance described below, and the reach performance of super reach β corresponds to the strong S reach performance A and strong S reach performance B described below. .

In addition, when the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state (low probability high base state or high probability high base state), the reach effect of super reach γ is executed via normal reach as a super reach variation pattern. A variation pattern in which the variable display result is a miss or a jackpot (PA2-6, PB1-6), a variation pattern in which the super reach δ reach effect is executed via the normal reach and the variable display result is a miss or a jackpot (PA2- 7, PB1-7) is provided. In addition, the reach performance of super reach γ in this embodiment corresponds to the weak S reach performance described below, and the reach performance of super reach δ corresponds to strong S reach performance A and strong S reach performance B described below. .

As shown in FIG. 21, the special symbol variation time of the normal reach variation pattern in which the normal reach variation pattern in this embodiment is set to be shorter than that of the super reach variation pattern.

In addition, in this embodiment, since the variable display result is set to be a "jackpot" and the jackpot expectation level increases in the order of super reach, normal reach, and non-reach, in the normal reach variation pattern and the super reach variation pattern, The longer the special figure fluctuation time, the higher the expectation of a jackpot.

Further, in this embodiment, as described later, these fluctuation patterns are determined using only the random number MR3 for determining fluctuation patterns, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, in addition to the random number MR3 for determining the variation pattern, a random number for determining the type of variation pattern is provided, and the type of the variation pattern is first determined from these random numbers for determining the type of variation, and then the type of variation pattern is determined. A variation pattern belonging to the determined type may be determined.

FIG. 22 is an explanatory diagram of a method for determining a variation pattern in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the variable pattern determination table to be selected differs depending on the display result of the variable display to be executed, the number of pending memories, the gaming state, etc.

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 22(A) to 22(D), when the gaming state is the normal state (low base state) and the variable display result is a loss, the special symbol that executes the variable display is suspended. If the number of memories (number of reserved memories of the same type) is less than 1, a fluctuation pattern is determined based on the variation pattern determination table A for failure and the value of the random number MR3, and the number of reserved memories of the special symbol to be variable displayed is determined. If there are 2 pieces, a variation pattern for a miss is determined based on the value of the judgment table B and the random number value MR3, and if the number of reserved memories of special symbols for which variable display is executed is 3 pieces, a variation pattern for a miss is determined. A fluctuation pattern is determined based on the determination table C and the value of the random number MR3. Further, when the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state (high base state) and the variable display result is a loss, a fluctuation pattern is determined based on the fluctuation pattern determination table D for loss and the value of the random number MR3. As shown in FIGS. 22(E) and 22(F), when the gaming state is the normal state (low base state) and the variable display result is a jackpot, the jackpot variation pattern determination table A and the random number MR3 are A fluctuation pattern is determined based on the value, and when the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state (high base state) and the variable display result is a jackpot, the fluctuation pattern is determined based on the jackpot fluctuation pattern determination table B and the value of the random number MR3. Decide on a pattern.

For example, as shown in FIG. 22(A), when the variation pattern determination table A for miss is selected, if the random value MR3 is within the range of 1 to 660, the variation pattern is changed to a non-reach miss without shortening. The fluctuation pattern (PA1-1) is determined, and if the value of the random number MR3 is within the range of 661 to 900, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be the fluctuation pattern (PA2-1) that is outside the normal reach, and the value of the random number MR3 is 901. If it is within the range of ~970, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be a fluctuation pattern (PA2-2) in which the super reach α is off via the normal reach after performing the pseudo-continuous performance once, and the value of the random number MR3 is 971. If it is within the range of ~990, the fluctuation pattern will be determined as a fluctuation pattern (PA2-3) in which the super reach β is off via the normal reach, and if the value of the random number MR3 is within the range of 991 to 997, the fluctuation pattern will be determined. The pattern is determined to be a variable pattern (PA2-4) in which the pseudo-continuous effect is executed twice, and then the super reach β is off via the normal reach and the super reach α.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 22(B), when the variation pattern determination table B for miss is selected, the variation pattern is shortened if the random value MR3 is within the range of 1 to 700. (PA1-2), and if the value of random number MR3 is within the range of 701 to 900, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be the fluctuation pattern of normal reach (PA2-1), and the value of random number MR3 is within the range of 901 to 970. If it is within the range, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be a fluctuation pattern (PA2-2) in which the super reach α is off via the normal reach after performing the pseudo continuous performance once, and the value of the random number MR3 is 971 to 990. If the random number MR3 is within the range of 991 to 997, the fluctuation pattern is determined as a fluctuation pattern (PA2-3) in which the super reach β is off via the normal reach. , After performing the pseudo-continuous performance twice, a variation pattern (PA2-4) is determined in which the super reach β goes through the normal reach and the super reach α (PA2-4).

In addition, as shown in FIG. 22(C), when the variation pattern determination table C for miss is selected, the variation pattern is shortened if the random value MR3 is within the range of 1 to 750. (PA1-3), and if the value of random number MR3 is within the range of 751 to 900, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be the fluctuation pattern of normal reach (PA2-1), and the value of random number MR3 is within the range of 901 to 970. If it is within the range, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be a fluctuation pattern (PA2-2) in which the super reach α is off via the normal reach after performing the pseudo continuous performance once, and the value of the random number MR3 is 971 to 990. If the random number MR3 is within the range of 991 to 997, the fluctuation pattern is determined as a fluctuation pattern (PA2-3) in which the super reach β is off via the normal reach. , After performing the pseudo-continuous performance twice, a variation pattern (PA2-4) is determined in which the super reach β goes through the normal reach and the super reach α (PA2-4).

In addition, as shown in FIG. 22(D), when the variation pattern determination table D for miss is selected, if the random value MR3 is within the range of 1 to 300, the variation pattern is changed to the short non-reach variation pattern. (PA1-4), and if the value of random number MR3 is within the range of 301 to 550, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be a non-reach variation pattern (PA2-5), and the value of random number MR3 is between 551 and 550. If it is within the range of 750, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be a non-reach fluctuation pattern (PA1-6), and if the value of the random number MR3 is within the range of 751 to 900, the fluctuation pattern is determined as a normal reach fluctuation pattern. (PA2-5), and if the value of the random number MR3 is within the range of 901 to 970, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be a fluctuation pattern (PA2-6) in which the super reach γ is off via the normal reach, If the value of the random number MR3 is within the range of 971 to 997, the variation pattern is determined to be a variation pattern (PA2-7) in which the super reach δ is off via the normal reach.

Also, as shown in FIG. 22(E), when jackpot variation pattern determination table A is selected, if the random value MR3 is within the range of 1 to 30, the variation pattern is changed to the normal reach jackpot variation pattern (PB1 -1), and if the value of the random number MR3 is within the range of 31 to 200, the fluctuation pattern will be changed to the fluctuation pattern (PB1 -2), and if the value of random number MR3 is within the range of 201 to 500, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be a fluctuation pattern (PB1-3) that will lead to a super reach β jackpot via normal reach, and the random number If the value of MR3 is within the range of 501 to 997, the fluctuation pattern will be determined as a fluctuation pattern (PB1-4) that will become a jackpot with Super Reach β via Normal Reach and Super Reach α after performing pseudo-continuous performance twice. do.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 22(F), when jackpot variation pattern determination table B is selected, if the random value MR3 is within the range of 1 to 100, the variation pattern is changed to the non-reach jackpot variation pattern ( PB1-5), and if the value of random number MR3 is within the range of 101 to 400, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be the fluctuation pattern (PB1-6) that results in a super reach γ jackpot via normal reach, and If the value of numerical value MR3 is within the range of 401 to 997, the fluctuation pattern is determined to be a fluctuation pattern (PB1-7) that results in a super reach δ jackpot via a normal reach.

In addition, in this embodiment, when the variable display result is a jackpot, the variation pattern is determined at a ratio of 1 regardless of the jackpot type, but the present invention is not limited to this. Instead, the determination ratio of a plurality of jackpot variation patterns may be made different depending on the jackpot type. By doing so, it is possible to draw the player's attention to which variable display of the variable pattern resulted in a jackpot, thereby increasing the player's interest in the game.

The RAM 102 included in the game control microcomputer 100 shown in FIG. 2 may be a backup RAM in which part or all of it is backed up by a backup power source created on a predetermined power supply board. That is, even if the power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 1 is stopped, part or all of the contents of the RAM 102 will not be saved for a predetermined period (until the capacitor serving as the backup power supply is discharged and the backup power supply is no longer able to supply power). Ru. In particular, at least data corresponding to the game state, ie, the control state of the game control means (such as a special figure process flag) and data indicating the number of unpaid prize balls may be stored in the backup RAM. The data corresponding to the control state of the game control means is data necessary for restoring the control state before the power outage, etc., based on the data, when the power is restored after a power outage, etc. occurs. Further, data corresponding to the control state and data indicating the number of unpaid prize balls are defined as data indicating the progress state of the game.

(motion)
Next, the operation (function) of the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be explained.

(Main operations of main board 11)
First, the main operations of the main board 11 will be explained. When power supply to the pachinko game machine 1 is started, the game control microcomputer 100 is activated, and the CPU 103 executes game control main processing. FIG. 25 is a flowchart showing the game control main processing executed by the CPU 103 in the main board 11.

In the game control main process shown in FIG. 25, the CPU 103 first sets interrupts to be prohibited (step S1). Next, necessary initial settings are performed (step S2). The initial settings include stack pointer settings, register settings for built-in devices (CTC (counter/timer circuit), parallel input/output ports, etc.), settings to make the RAM 102 accessible, and the like.

Next, it is determined whether the recovery conditions are satisfied (step S3). The recovery condition can be satisfied when the clear signal is off, there is backup data, and the backup RAM is normal. If, for example, a clear switch provided on the power supply board 17 is pressed when power supply to the pachinko game machine 1 is started, an on-state clear signal is input to the game control microcomputer 100. If such an on-state clear signal is input, it may be determined in step S3 that the recovery condition is not satisfied. It is sufficient that the backup data can be stored in the RAM 102, which serves as a backup RAM for game control. In step S3, the presence or absence of backup data, the presence or absence of data errors, etc. may be confirmed or inspected to determine whether the recovery conditions can be met.

When the recovery condition is satisfied (step S3; Yes), the random number circuit setting process (step S8) is executed after executing the recovery process (step S4). Through the recovery process in step S4, a work area is set based on the contents stored in the RAM 102. By setting the work area using the backup data stored in the RAM 102, the gaming state can be restored to the state it was in when the power supply stopped. For example, if the special symbols are changing, the special symbol can be changed from the state before the stoppage. It is sufficient if the fluctuation of the symbols can be resumed.

If the recovery condition is not satisfied (step S3; No), initialization processing (step S6) is performed, and then random number circuit setting processing (step S8) is performed. The initialization process in step S6 includes a clear process for clearing the flags, counters, and buffers stored in the RAM 102, and initial values are set in the work area by executing the clear process.

After executing the random number circuit setting process (step S8), the CPU 103 sets the CTC register built in the game control microcomputer 100 so that a timer interrupt is periodically generated at predetermined intervals (for example, 2 ms). (Step S9), and the interrupt is permitted (Step S10). After that, loop processing begins. Thereafter, an interrupt request signal is sent from the CTC to the CPU 103 at predetermined intervals (for example, 2 ms), and the CPU 103 can periodically execute timer interrupt processing.

When the CPU 103 that has executed the game control main process receives an interrupt request signal from the CTC and accepts the interrupt request, it executes the game control timer interrupt process shown in the flowchart of FIG. When starting the game control timer interrupt process shown in FIG. 26, the CPU 103 first executes a predetermined switch process to control the gate switch 21, first starting port switch 22A, and second starting port via the switch circuit 110. It is determined whether detection signals are received from various switches such as the switch 22B and the count switch 23 (step S21). Next, by executing a predetermined main-side error process, the pachinko gaming machine 1 is diagnosed for abnormality, and a warning can be issued if necessary according to the diagnosis result (step S22). Thereafter, by executing a predetermined information output process, for example, jackpot information (information indicating the number of jackpot occurrences, etc.) and starting information (starting Data such as information indicating the number of winnings, etc.) and probability fluctuation information (information indicating the number of times the probability variable state has been reached, etc.) are output (step S23).

Following the information output process, a game random number update process is executed to update at least a part of the game random numbers used on the main board 11 side by software (step S24). After this, the CPU 103 executes special symbol process processing (step S25). The CPU 103 executes special symbol process processing for each timer interrupt, thereby realizing management of execution and suspension of the special symbol game, control of the jackpot game state, control of the game state, and the like.

Following the special symbol process, the normal symbol process is executed (step S26). The CPU 103 executes the normal pattern process processing for each timer interrupt, thereby managing the execution and suspension of the normal pattern game based on the detection signal from the gate switch 21 (based on the passage of the game ball to the passing gate 41), This makes it possible to control the opening of the variable winning ball device 6B based on the "normal map hit". The normal pattern game is executed by driving the normal pattern display 20, and the number of normal patterns pending is displayed by lighting the normal pattern pending display 25C.

After executing the normal symbol process processing, processing when a power outage occurs, processing for paying out prize balls, etc. may be performed as part of the game control timer interrupt processing. After that, the CPU 103 executes command control processing (step S27). The CPU 103 may set the production control command to be transmitted in each of the above processes. In the command control process of step S27, a process is performed in which the effect control command set for transmission is transmitted to a sub-side control board such as the effect control board 12. After executing the command control process, interrupts are permitted, and the game control timer interrupt process is ended.

(Special design process processing)
FIG. 27 is a flowchart showing an example of the process executed in step S25 shown in FIG. 26 as the special symbol process process. In this special symbol process, the CPU 103 first executes a starting winning determination process (step S101).

In the starting winning determination process, a process is executed to detect the occurrence of a starting winning, store pending information in a predetermined area of the RAM 102, and update the pending storage number. When a starting prize occurs, a random number value for determining the display result (including the type of jackpot) and fluctuation pattern is extracted and stored as pending information. Furthermore, processing for pre-reading and determining display results and fluctuation patterns may be performed based on the extracted random number values. After storing the pending information and the number of pending memories, transmission settings are made to the production control board 12 to send a production control command for specifying the occurrence of a starting prize, the number of pending memories, and judgment results such as pre-reading judgment. be exposed. The effect control command at the time of start winning, which is set to be transmitted in this way, is transferred from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12 by, for example, executing the command control process in step S27 shown in FIG. 26 after the special symbol process process is completed. transmitted to.

After executing the starting winning determination process in step S101, the CPU 103 selects and executes any of the processes in steps S110 to S117 according to the value of the special symbol process flag provided in the RAM 102. In addition, in each process (steps S110 to S117) of the special symbol process process, transmission settings are made to transmit the performance control command corresponding to each process to the performance control board 12.

The special symbol normal process in step S110 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is "0" (initial value). In this special symbol normal processing, it is determined whether or not to start the first special symbol game or the second special symbol game based on the presence or absence of reservation information. In addition, in the special symbol normal processing, based on the random number value for determining the display result, the display result is determined as to whether or not the display result of the special symbol or decorative symbol is a "jackpot" and if it is a "jackpot", the jackpot type. is determined (predetermined) before it is derived and displayed. Further, in the special symbol normal processing, a confirmed special symbol (either a jackpot symbol or a losing symbol) to be stopped and displayed in the special symbol game is set in accordance with the determined display result. After that, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to "1", and the special symbol normal processing ends. In addition, in this embodiment, the special pattern game using the second special pattern is executed with priority over the special pattern game using the first special pattern (also called special pattern 2 priority play). ). Further, the winning order of the game balls in the first starting winning hole and the second starting winning hole may be stored, and the starting conditions for the special figure game may be established in the winning order (also referred to as winning order completion).

When making various decisions based on random numbers, various tables (tables in which decision values to be compared with random numbers are assigned to decision results) stored in the ROM 101 are referred to. The same applies to other decisions made on the main board 11 and various decisions made on the production control board 12. In the performance control board 12, various tables are stored in the ROM 121.

The variation pattern setting process in step S111 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "1". This fluctuation pattern setting process includes a process of determining one of multiple types of fluctuation patterns using a random value for determining the fluctuation pattern, based on the pre-determined result of whether or not the display result is a "jackpot". It is included. In the variation pattern setting process, when the variation pattern is determined, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "2", and the variation pattern setting process ends.

The variation pattern includes the execution time of the special figure game (special figure variation time) (also the execution time of the variable display of decorative symbols), the variable display mode of the ornamental symbols (whether or not there is a reach, etc.), and the variable display period of the decorative symbols. It specifies the content of the performance (type of reach performance, etc.), and is also called a variable display pattern.

The special symbol variation process in step S112 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is "2". This special symbol variation process includes a process of making settings for varying the special symbol in the first special symbol display device 4A and second special symbol display device 4B, and the elapsed time since the special symbol started to fluctuate. It includes processes such as measuring. It is also determined whether the measured elapsed time has reached the special figure fluctuation time corresponding to the fluctuation pattern. Then, when the elapsed time after starting the variation of the special symbol reaches the special symbol variation time, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to "3" and the special symbol variation process ends.

The special symbol stop process in step S113 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is "3". In this special symbol stopping process, the fluctuation of the special symbol is stopped in the first special symbol display device 4A and the second special symbol display device 4B, and the finalized special symbol that becomes the display result of the special symbol is stopped and displayed (derived). Contains processing to configure settings for Then, when the display result is a "jackpot", the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "4". When the display result is "lost", the game state is also updated when the time saving state or the variable probability state is controlled, and when the end of the number cut is established. When the value of the special symbol process flag is updated, the special symbol stop processing ends.

The jackpot opening preprocessing in step S114 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "4". This jackpot opening pre-processing includes processing to start a round in the jackpot game state and set the jackpot opening state based on the display result being a "jackpot", etc. It is. When the big winning opening is opened, a process is executed to supply a solenoid drive signal to the solenoid 82 for the big winning opening door. At this time, for example, depending on the jackpot type, the opening upper limit period for keeping the jackpot open and the upper limit number of rounds to be executed are set. When these settings are completed, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "5", and the jackpot release preprocessing is completed.

The jackpot opening process in step S115 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "5". This jackpot opening process includes a process of measuring the elapsed time since the jackpot opening is opened, and a process of measuring the elapsed time since the jackpot opening is opened, and based on the measured elapsed time and the number of game balls detected by the count switch 23, the jackpot opening This includes processing for determining whether it is time to return the switch from an open state to a closed state. Then, when returning the big prize opening to the closed state, after executing a process such as stopping the supply of the solenoid drive signal to the solenoid 82 for the big winning opening door, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "6", The jackpot opening process ends.

The jackpot release post-processing in step S116 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "6". This jackpot opening process includes a process to determine whether the number of rounds to open the jackpot has reached the set upper limit number of runs, and a process to enter the jackpot game state when the upper limit number of runs has been reached. This includes processing to make settings for terminating the process. When the number of executions of the round has not reached the upper limit number of executions, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "5", while when the number of executions of the round has reached the upper limit number of executions, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "5". The value is updated to "7". When the value of the special figure process flag is updated, the jackpot release post-processing ends.

The jackpot end process in step S117 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "7". This jackpot ending process includes a process of waiting until the waiting time corresponding to the period in which the ending performance is performed as a performance operation to notify the end of the jackpot gaming state, and a process of waiting until the waiting time corresponding to the period in which the ending performance is executed as a performance operation to notify the end of the jackpot gaming state, and a process that changes the probability in response to the end of the jackpot gaming state. It includes processing to perform various settings for starting control and time-saving control. When such settings are made, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "0", and the jackpot end process ends.

(Start winning determination process)
FIG. 28 is a flowchart showing the starting winning determination process (S101) shown in FIG. 27. In the starting winning determination process, the CPU 103 first turns on the first starting opening switch 22A based on the detection signal from the first starting opening switch 22A provided corresponding to the first starting winning opening formed by the winning ball device 6A. It is determined whether or not (006SGS101). At this time, if the first starting port switch 22A is on (006SGS101; Y), the number of reserved memories of the first special figure, which is the number of reserved memories of the special figure game using the first special figure, is set to the predetermined upper limit ( For example, it is determined whether the upper limit storage number is "4" (006SGS102). The CPU 103 may specify the first special symbol pending memory number by reading the first pending memory count value which is the stored value of the first pending memory counter provided in the game control counter setting section 006SG154, for example. When the first special figure pending memory number is not the upper limit value in 006SGS102 (006SGS102;N), for example, the storage value of the starting opening buffer provided in the game control buffer setting section 006SG155 is set to "0" (006SGS103) .

When the first starting port switch 22A is off in 006SGS101 (006SGS101; N), or when the number of first special symbols pending memory has reached the upper limit value in 006SGS102 (006SGS102; Y), the variable winning ball device 6B Based on the detection signal from the second starting port switch 22B provided corresponding to the second starting winning port formed by the player, it is determined whether or not the second starting port switch 22B is on (006SGS104). At this time, if the second starting port switch 22B is on (006SGS104; Y), the number of second special pattern pending memories, which is the number of pending memories of the special pattern game using the second special pattern, is set to the predetermined upper limit ( For example, it is determined whether the upper limit storage number is "4" (006SGS105). The CPU 103 may specify the second special symbol pending storage number by reading the second pending storage number count value, which is the stored value of the second pending storage number counter provided in the game control counter setting section 006SG154, for example. When the second special figure pending memory number is not the upper limit value in 006SGS105 (006SGS105;N), for example, the storage value of the starting opening buffer provided in the game control buffer setting section 006SG155 is set to "2" (006SGS106) .

After executing either of the processes of 006SGS103 and 006SGS106, the number of special figure pending storage according to the starting opening buffer value, which is the stored value of the starting opening buffer, is updated by adding 1 (006SGS107). For example, when the starting port buffer value is "0", the first pending storage number count value is incremented by 1, while when the starting port buffer value is "2", the second pending storage number count value is added by 1. In this way, the first pending memory number count value is 1 when the game ball passes (enters) the first starting prize opening and the first starting condition corresponding to the special pattern game using the first special pattern is satisfied. Updated to increase. In addition, the second pending memory number count value is 1 when the game ball passes (enters) the second starting prize opening and the second starting condition corresponding to the special pattern game using the second special pattern is established. Updated to increase. At this time, the total number of pending memories is also updated to add 1 (006SGS108). For example, the total pending storage number count value, which is the stored value of the total pending storage number counter provided in the game control counter setting unit 006SG154, may be updated by adding one.

After executing the process of 006SGS108, the CPU 103 selects the random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result and the random number MR1 for determining the jackpot type from among the numerical data updated by the random number circuit 104 and the random counter of the game control counter setting unit 006SG154. Numerical data indicating the random number MR2 and the random number MR3 for fluctuation pattern determination are extracted (006SGS109). Numerical data indicating each random number value extracted in this way and the start opening buffer value are stored by being set as reservation information at the head of a free entry in the special figure reservation storage section (006SGS110).

The numerical data indicating the random number MR1 for determining the special symbol display result and the random number MR2 for determining the jackpot type determines whether or not the variable display result of the special symbol or decorative symbol is considered a "jackpot", and whether or not the variable display result is determined by the variable display result. It is used to determine the type of jackpot in the case of "jackpot". The random number value MR3 for determining a variation pattern is used to determine a variation pattern including variable display times of special symbols and decorative symbols. By executing the process of 006SGS109, the CPU 103 extracts numerical data indicating all of the random numbers used for determining the variable display mode including the variable display result and variable display time of special symbols and decorative symbols.

Following the processing of 006SGS110, transmission settings of a starting opening winning designation command according to the starting opening buffer value are performed (006SGS111). For example, when the starting opening buffer value is "0", the performance control board Settings are made to send the first starting opening winning designation command to No. 12. On the other hand, when the starting opening buffer value is "2", by storing the storage address of the second starting opening winning designation command table in the ROM 101 in the buffer area of the sending command buffer, Make settings for transmitting the second starting opening winning designation command. The starting opening winning designation command set in this way is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12 by, for example, executing the command control process of S27 shown in FIG. 26 after the special symbol process process is completed. be done.

Following the process of 006SGS111, the CPU 103 executes the winning random value determination process (step 006SGS112), and then, for example, sets the storage address of the pending storage number notification command table in the ROM 101 to the buffer specified by the send command pointer in the send command buffer. Settings are made to send a pending storage number notification command to the production control board 12 by storing it in the area (006SGS113). The reservation storage number notification command set in this way is transmitted from the main board 11 to the production control board 12 by, for example, executing the command control process of S27 shown in FIG. 26 after the special symbol process process is completed. be done.

After executing the process of 006SGS113, it is determined whether the starting port buffer value is "0" (006SGS114). At this time, if the starting port buffer value is "0" (Y in 006SGS114), the starting port buffer is cleared and its stored value is initialized to "0" (006SGS115), and then the process proceeds to 2390SGS104. On the other hand, when the starting opening buffer value is "2" (N in 006SGS114), the starting opening buffer is cleared and its stored value is initialized to "0" (006SGS116), and then the starting winning process is executed. finish. Thereby, even when both the first starting port switch 22A and the second starting port switch 22B detect valid starting winnings of game balls at the same time, processing based on detection of both effective starting winnings can be surely completed.

(Random numerical value judgment process when winning a prize)
FIG. 29(A) is a flowchart showing an example of the process executed in step 006SGS112 of FIG. 28 as the winning random value determination process. In this feature section 006SG, when the variable display of special symbols and decorative symbols starts, the special symbol display result (variable display result of the special symbol) is treated as a "jackpot" and a jackpot game state is controlled by special symbol normal processing described later. A determination is made as to whether or not to do so. In addition, in the variation pattern setting process to be described later, a variation pattern that specifically defines the variable display mode of the decorative pattern is determined. On the other hand, apart from these determinations, at the timing when the game ball is detected at the starting winning hole (the first starting winning hole or the second starting winning hole), the CPU 103 executes the winning time random numerical value judgment process of step 006SGS112. By doing so, it is determined whether or not the jackpot symbol is determined to be stopped and displayed as a special symbol display result, and whether or not the variable display mode of the decorative symbol becomes a predetermined display mode with super reach is determined. As a result, before the variable display of special symbols and decorative symbols based on the detection of the game ball that entered the starting prize opening starts, that is, before it is decided whether or not to win the jackpot at the start of the variable display. Beforehand, it is determined whether the special figure display result will be a "jackpot" or which category the variable display mode of the decorative pattern will be, and based on this determination result, the production control CPU 120 etc. , as will be described later, a preview effect such as a pre-read preview effect is executed.

In the prize winning random value determination process shown in FIG. The current gaming state is specified (step 006SGS121). The CPU 103 identifies the variable probability state (high probability/high base state) when the variable probability flag is on, and the time saving state (low probability/high base state) when the variable probability flag is off and the time saving flag is on. It is sufficient to specify that the state is the normal state (low certainty base state) when both the probability variable flag and the time saving flag are off.

Following the process of step 006SGS121, special figure display result determination table 1 shown in FIG. 19 is selected and set (step 006SGS122). Thereafter, it is determined whether the numerical data indicating the random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result extracted in step 006SGS109 of FIG. 28 is within a predetermined jackpot determination range (step 006SGS123). In the jackpot judgment range, individual judgment values assigned to the special figure display result of "Jackpot" in the special figure display result judgment table selected by the process of step 006SGS122 are set, and the CPU 103 uses the random number MR1 and each judgment value. It is sufficient if it is possible to determine whether there is a judgment value that matches the random value MR1 by comparing them one by one. Alternatively, by setting numerical values indicating the minimum value (lower limit value) and maximum value (upper limit value) of the judgment value included in the jackpot judgment range, the CPU 103 calculates the random value MR1 and the minimum value or maximum value of the jackpot judgment range. It is only necessary to determine whether or not the random number value MR1 is within the jackpot determination range by comparison. At this time, by determining that the random number MR1 is within the jackpot determination range, it can be determined that the variable display result based on the pending data including the random number MR1 is determined to be a "jackpot".

If it is determined in step 006SGS123 that it is not within the jackpot determination range, that is, if it is determined that there is no jackpot in the variable display (step 006SGS123; N), in response to the variable display result being "miss", The transmission setting of the first symbol designation command, which is a symbol designation command, is executed (step 006SGS128), and it is determined whether the time saving flag is on or not, that is, whether the current gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state. It is determined whether there is one (Step 006SGS129). If the time saving flag is off (step 006SGS129; N), select and set the fluctuation pattern determination table A for failure, and if the time saving flag is on (step 006SGS129; Y), determine the fluctuation pattern for failure. Select and set table D (step 006SGS131).

In this embodiment, in addition to the deviation variation pattern determination table A and the deviation variation pattern determination table D, a deviation variation pattern determination table B and a deviation variation pattern determination table C are prepared according to the number of pending memories. are prepared in advance, but as shown in FIG. 22, among these fluctuation pattern determination tables A to C for a loss, the fluctuation pattern determination table A for a loss has a fluctuation pattern determination table for a non-reach fluctuation pattern. Judgment values from 1 to 660 are assigned within the range that the random number MR3 can take, and in the variation pattern judgment tables B and C for a loss, the random number MR3 for judgment of the variation pattern is assigned to a non-reach variation pattern. Judgment values from 1 to 700 and from 1 to 750 are assigned to each of the possible ranges. On the other hand, in the losing variation pattern determination tables A to C, determination values from 901 to 997 are assigned to the super reach variation pattern within the range that the random value MR3 for variation pattern determination can take.

Therefore, by determining the fluctuation pattern using the fluctuation pattern determination table A for failure in step 006SGS126, the determination of non-reach and super reach will always be non-reach or super reach even if the number of retained memories changes after the determination. Since this is a fluctuation pattern, the fluctuation pattern determination table A for losing is used to determine when a starting prize is won.

In addition, if it is determined in step 006SGS123 that it is within the jackpot determination range, that is, if it is determined that there will be a jackpot during variable display (step 006SGS123; Y), as shown in FIG. The jackpot type is determined based on the random number value MR2 for type determination (step 006SGS132). At this time, the CPU 103 operates according to the variable special figure (the "first special figure" corresponding to "1" or the "second special figure" corresponding to "2") specified corresponding to the starting opening buffer value. , selects table data for jackpot type determination from the table data configuring the jackpot type determination table. Then, by referring to the selected table data for determining the jackpot type, it is determined which of the plurality of jackpot types is to be determined.

In addition, the symbol designation command according to the determined jackpot type, that is, the second symbol designation command if it is a probability variable jackpot A, the third symbol designation command if it is a probability variable jackpot B, and the third symbol specification command if it is a probability variable jackpot C. If it is a non-variable jackpot, the transmission setting of the 4th symbol designation command is executed, and if it is a non-variable jackpot, the transmission setting of the 5th symbol designation command is executed (step 006SGS133). A pattern determination table is selected and set (step 006SGS135), and the process proceeds to step 006SGS138. In addition, in the process of step 006 SGS135, if the gaming state is a normal state (low probability low base state), jackpot fluctuation pattern determination table A is selected, and if the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state (low probability high base state or high If it is a certain high base state), it is sufficient to set the jackpot fluctuation pattern determination table B.

In the process of step 006 SGS138, each fluctuation pattern determination table set in each step and the numerical data indicating the random value MR3 for fluctuation pattern determination are used to determine the fluctuation category according to the range of determination values including the random value MR3. (Step 006SGS138). In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 29(B), at least when the variable display result is "miss", the variable display mode is commonly "non-reach" regardless of the total number of pending memories. A category, a variable category that is a variable display mode of "Super Reach", and a variable category of "Other" that is a variable display mode other than "Non-reach" and "Super Reach" (for example, normal reach) are established, and a random value is set. It is sufficient if it can be determined based on MR3 whether or not it is determined to be in such a variation category.

Thereafter, a setting is made to transmit a variable category designation command according to the determination result of the process of step 006SGS138 to the production control board 12 (step 006SGS132), and then the winning random number value determination process is ended.

(Special design normal processing)
FIG. 30 is a flowchart showing an example of the process executed in S110 of FIG. 27 as the special symbol normal process. In the special symbol normal processing shown in FIG. 30, the CPU 103 first determines whether or not the second special symbol pending storage number is "0" (step 006SGS141). The second special symbol pending memory number is the number of pending memories of the special symbol game using the second special symbol by the second special symbol display device 4B. For example, in the process of step 006SGS141, the second pending storage number count value stored in the game control counter setting section may be read out, and it may be determined whether or not the read value is "0".

When the second special figure reservation storage number is other than "0" in step 006SGS141 (step 006SGS141;N), reservation data stored in the second special figure reservation storage unit corresponding to reservation number "0" , the random number MR1 for special figure display result determination, the random number MR2 for jackpot type determination, and the random number MR3 for fluctuation pattern determination are read out (step 006SGS142). The numerical data read at this time may be temporarily stored in, for example, a random number buffer for fluctuation.

Following the process of step 006 SGS142, the second special figure pending memory count value and the total pending memory count value are subtracted by 1 and updated, so that the second special figure pending memory count value and the total pending memory count value are subtracted by 1. At the same time, the data in the second special figure reservation storage section is updated. Specifically, it indicates the random numbers MR1 to MR3 stored in the entries lower than the reservation number "0" (for example, the entries corresponding to the reservation numbers "2" to "4") in the second special figure reservation storage unit. The pending data is shifted upward one entry at a time (step 006SGS143).

Thereafter, after updating the variable special figure designation buffer value, which is the stored value of the variable special figure designation buffer, to "2" (step 006SGS144), the process moves to step 006SGS149.

On the other hand, when the second special figure reservation memory number is "0" in step 006SGS141 (step 006SGS141; Y), it is determined whether the first special figure reservation memory number is "0" (step 006SGS145) . The number of first special symbol pending memories is the number of pending memories of the special symbol game using the first special symbol by the first special symbol display device 4A. For example, in the process of step 006SGS145, the game control counter setting section reads out the first pending memory number count value stored in the first pending memory number counter, and determines whether or not the read value is "0". good. In this way, the process of step 006SGS145 is executed when it is determined in step 006SGS141 that the second special figure pending memory number is "0", and the first special figure pending memory number is "0". Determine whether or not. As a result, the special pattern game using the second special pattern starts to be executed with priority over the special pattern game using the first special pattern.

It should be noted that the special pattern game using the second special pattern is not limited to being executed with priority over the special pattern game using the first special pattern, for example, the first starting prize opening or the second starting prize opening may be executed. The execution of the special figure game may be started in the order in which the game ball enters (passes) and a starting prize occurs. In this case, a table is provided that stores data that can specify the order in which the starting winnings have occurred, and the execution of the special pattern game using either the first special pattern or the second special pattern is started from the stored data. It would be good if we could decide which.

When the first special figure reservation memory number is other than "0" in step 006SGS145 (step 006SGS145; N), reservation data stored in the first special figure reservation storage unit corresponding to reservation number "0" Then, numerical data indicating the random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result, the random number MR2 for determining the type of jackpot, and the random number MR3 for determining the fluctuation pattern are read out (step 006SGS146). The numerical data read at this time may be temporarily stored in, for example, a random number buffer for fluctuation.

Following the process of step 006 SGS146, the first special figure pending memory number and total pending memory number are subtracted by 1 by subtracting and updating the first special figure pending memory number count value and the total pending memory number count value. At the same time, the data in the first special figure reservation storage section is updated. Specifically, it indicates the random numbers MR1 to MR3 stored in the entries lower than the reservation number "0" (for example, the entries corresponding to the reservation numbers "2" to "4") in the first special figure reservation storage unit. The pending data is shifted upward one entry at a time (step 006SGS147).

Thereafter, after updating the variable special figure designation buffer value which is the stored value of the variable special figure designation buffer to "0" (step 006SGS148), the process moves to step 006SGS149.

In step 006SGS149, the display result determination table shown in FIG. 19 is selected as the table used to determine whether the special symbol display result, which is the variable display result of the special symbol, is a "jackpot" or a "miss." and set it. Next, the numerical data indicating the random number MR1 for judging the special figure display result stored in the random number buffer for fluctuation is compared with the judgment value assigned to each special figure display result of "jackpot" and "miss". , it is determined whether the special figure display result is a "jackpot" or a "miss" (step 006 SGS150). In addition, in this step 006SGS150, if the gaming state at that time is a high probability state (probability variation state) in which the probability variation flag is on, the random value MR1 for determining the special symbol display result is in a high probability state (probability variation state). ), it is determined that it is a "jackpot", and if it is not, it is determined that it is a "miss". In addition, if the probability change flag is off (low probability low base state and low probability high base state in this embodiment), the random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result is between 1 and 219. If it falls within the range, it is determined to be a "jackpot", and if it does not fall, it is determined to be a "miss".

In this way, in the display result determination table selected in step 006SGS149, different determination values are assigned to "jackpot" depending on the gaming state at that time (high probability, low probability), so step 006SGS150 In this process, different judgment data (judgment values) are used to determine the special pattern display result as a "jackpot" depending on whether or not the gaming state is a high probability state when variable display such as a special pattern game starts. ” By determining whether or not to do so, when the gaming state is a high probability state, it is determined (determined) that it is a “big hit” with a higher probability than when the gaming state is a low probability state.

If it is determined in step 006SGS150 that it is a "jackpot" (step 006SGS150; Y), the jackpot flag is turned on (step 006SGS152). At this time, the jackpot type determination table shown in FIG. 20(A) is selected and set as a table to be used for determining the jackpot type to one of a plurality of types (step 006SGS153). By referring to the jackpot type determination table set in this way, the numerical data indicating the random number MR2 for jackpot type determination stored in the fluctuation random number buffer and the "non-probable variable jackpot" and "probable variable jackpot" are determined in the jackpot type determination table. The jackpot type is determined to be one of the plurality of types depending on which of the judgment values assigned to each jackpot type of ``A'', ``Probable variable jackpot B'', and ``Probable variable jackpot C'' matches (Step 006 SGS154 ).

By determining the jackpot type in the process of step 006SGS154, the gaming state after the end of the jackpot gaming state can be changed into a time-saving state (low probability high base state) and a probability variable state (which is more advantageous for the player than the time-saving state). Which gaming state to control (high-certain, high-base state) is determined before a fixed special symbol is derived as a variable display result. Corresponding to the jackpot type determined in this way, for example, by setting a jackpot type buffer value which is a stored value of the jackpot type buffer provided in the game control buffer setting section (step 006SGS155), the determined jackpot type is set. Remember. As an example, if the jackpot type is "non-probable variable jackpot" corresponding to a non-probable variable jackpot, the jackpot type buffer value is set to "0", and if the jackpot type is "probable variable A" corresponding to probability variable jackpot A, it is set to "0", If it is "probable variable B" corresponding to B, it may be set to "2", and if it is "probable variable C" corresponding to probability variable jackpot C, it may be set to "3". Note that after the processing in step 006SGS155, the process advances to step 006SGS156.

Furthermore, if it is determined in step 006SGS150 that it is a "miss" (step 006SGS150; N), the process in step 006SGS156 is executed without executing the processes in steps 006SGS152 to 006SGS155.

In step 006 SGS156, the CPU 103 determines whether or not to control the jackpot gaming state (whether the jackpot flag is turned on or not) in advance, and the result of determining the jackpot type in the case where the jackpot gaming state is set. , set a confirmed special symbol. As an example, in response to a pre-determined result that the special symbol display result is a "miss", a special symbol indicating a "-" symbol, which is a missed symbol, is set as a confirmed special symbol. In addition, if the special symbol display result is determined to be a "jackpot" in step 006SGS150a, and if the jackpot type in step 006SGS154 is "probable variable jackpot A", a special symbol indicating the number "7" is displayed. Set as a confirmed special symbol. Further, when the jackpot type is "probable variable jackpot B", a special symbol showing the number "5" is set as a confirmed special symbol. Further, when the jackpot type is "non-probable variable jackpot", a special symbol showing the number "3" is set as a confirmed special symbol. Further, when the jackpot type is "probable variable jackpot C", a special symbol indicating the number "0" is set as a confirmed special symbol. Note that these confirmed special symbols are just examples, and other confirmed special symbols may be set, or multiple types of symbols may be set as confirmed special symbols.

After setting the confirmed special symbol in step 006SGS156, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to "1", which is the value corresponding to the fluctuation pattern setting process (step 006SGS157), and then the special symbol normal process is ended. .

In addition, if the number of reserved memories of the special pattern game using the first special pattern is "0" in step 006SGS145 (step 006SGS145; Y), after performing predetermined demo display settings (step 006SGS158), Special symbol normal processing ends. In this demonstration display setting, a production control command (customer waiting demo designation command) that specifies a demonstration display (demonstration screen display) by displaying a predetermined production image on the image display device 5, for example, is sent from the main board 11 to the production control command. It is determined whether the transmission to the board 12 has been completed. At this time, if the customer waiting demo designation command has already been sent, the demo display setting is terminated. On the other hand, if it has not yet been sent, settings are made to send the customer waiting demo designation command, and then the demo display settings are ended.

(Fluctuation pattern setting process)
FIG. 31 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the process executed in step S111 of FIG. 27 as the variation pattern setting process. In the fluctuation pattern setting process shown in FIG. 31, the CPU 103 selects a fluctuation pattern determination table according to the state (step 006SGS161). For example, when the variable display result is a loss, if the gaming state is normal and the number of special symbols reserved for executing variable display is 1, the variation pattern determination table A for loss is selected, and the gaming state is normal. If the state and the number of pending memories of special symbols that execute variable display are 2, select the variation pattern determination table B for loss, and the game state is normal and the number of pending memories of special symbols that execute variable display is 3. If it is, then the losing variation pattern determination table C is selected, and if the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state, the losing variation pattern determination table D is selected. Also, when the variable display result is a jackpot, if the gaming state is normal, jackpot variation pattern determination table A is selected, and if the gaming state is time saving or variable probability, jackpot variation pattern determination table B is selected. do.

Then, by referring to the selected (set) fluctuation pattern determination table based on numerical data indicating the random number MR3 for fluctuation pattern determination stored in a random number buffer for fluctuation, etc., multiple types of fluctuation patterns are generated. (Step 006SGS162).

After determining the fluctuation pattern in step 006SGS162, a special symbol game using the first special symbol on the first special symbol display device 4A and a special symbol game using the first special symbol on the second special symbol display device 4B are performed according to the variable special symbol designation buffer value. Settings are made to start the variation of the special symbols so as to start one of the special symbol games using the second special symbol (Step 006SGS163). As an example, if the variable special symbol designation buffer value is "1", settings are made to transmit a drive signal that updates the display of the first special symbol on the first special symbol display device 4A. On the other hand, if the variable special symbol designation buffer value is "2", settings are made to transmit a drive signal that updates the display of the second special symbol on the second special symbol display device 4B.

Following the process of step 006SGS163, settings are made to transmit various commands for starting the variation of special symbols (step 006SGS164). For example, when the variable special figure designation buffer value is "1", the CPU 103 sends a gaming state designation command, a first fluctuation start command, a fluctuation pattern designation command, a variable display result command to the production control board 12 from the main board 11. In order to sequentially transmit the specified command and the first pending storage number notification command, the game control buffer setting unit 006SG155 sends setting data indicating the storage address (starting address) in the ROM 101 of the first fluctuation start command table prepared in advance. The command is stored in the buffer area specified by the send command pointer in the send command buffer provided in the send command buffer. On the other hand, when the variable special figure designation buffer value is "2", the CPU 103 sends a gaming state designation command, a second fluctuation start command, a fluctuation pattern designation command, and a variable display result from the main board 11 to the performance control board 12. In order to sequentially transmit the specified command and the second pending storage number notification command, setting data indicating the storage address in the ROM 101 of the second fluctuation start command table prepared in advance is provided in the game control buffer setting unit 006SG155. Store in the buffer area specified by the send command pointer in the send command buffer.

After executing the process of step 006SGS164, a special symbol variable display time which is a variable display time of the special symbol according to the determination result of the variation pattern is set (step 006SGS165). The special symbol variable display time, which is the variable display time of the special symbol, is the period from when the variable display of the special symbol starts in the special symbol game until the fixed special symbol that becomes the variable display result (special symbol display result) is stopped and displayed. The required time. After that, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to "2" which is a value corresponding to the special symbol variation process (step 006SGS166), and then the variation pattern setting process is ended.

Based on the command transmission setting in step 006SGS166, each time the command control process in step S27 shown in FIG. The specification command, the first variation start command or the second variation start command, the variation pattern specification command, the variable display result specification command, the first pending memory number notification command, or the second pending memory number notification command are transmitted in sequence. Become. The order in which these production control commands are sent can be changed arbitrarily; for example, the variable display result specification command is sent first, then the first variation start command, second variation start command, and variation pattern specification command. , the gaming state designation command, the first pending storage number notification command, or the second pending storage number notification command, etc. may be transmitted in this order.

(Special pattern stop processing)
FIG. 32 is a flowchart showing an example of the process executed in step S113 of FIG. 27 as the special symbol stop process. In the special symbol stop process, the CPU 103 turns on the end flag referred to in the special symbol variation process in step S113 to end the variation of the special symbol, and causes the first special symbol display device 4A and the second special symbol display device 4B to Control is performed to stop and display the stop symbols (step 006SGS180). In addition, when the variable special symbol designation buffer value is "1" indicating the first special symbol, the fluctuation of the first special symbol on the first special symbol display device 4A is ended, and the fluctuation special symbol designation buffer value is If it is "2" indicating the second special symbol, the variation of the second special symbol on the second special symbol display device 4B is ended. In addition, control is performed to transmit a symbol confirmation command to the production control board 12 (step 006SGS181). Then, it is determined whether the jackpot flag is turned on (step 006SGS182).

If the jackpot flag is turned on (step 006SGS182; Y) and the probability change flag and time saving flag are turned on, the CPU 103 clears the probability change flag and time saving flag and turns them off (step 006SGS184). , hit start 1 designation command (probability variable jackpot A), win start 2 designation command (probability variable jackpot B), win start 3 designation command (probability variable jackpot C), according to the type of jackpot stored in the performance control board 12. Settings are made to transmit the winning start 4 designation command (non-probable variable) (step 006 SGS185).

Further, the CPU 103 performs settings for transmitting a gaming state designation command indicating the normal state to the production control board 12 (step 006SGS186).

Then, a value corresponding to the jackpot display time (for example, the time for notifying the occurrence of a jackpot on the image display device 5) is set in the jackpot display time timer (step 006SGS187). Also, set the number of openings (for example, 10 times in the case of a non-probable variable jackpot or a variable variable jackpot A, 5 times in the case of a variable variable jackpot B, and 2 times in the case of a variable variable jackpot C) in the number of openings counter. (Step 006SGS188). Then, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to "4" (step 006SGS189), which is the value corresponding to the jackpot release preprocessing (step S114).

On the other hand, when the jackpot flag is off (step 006SGS182; N), it is determined in step 006SGS191 whether or not the time saving flag is on (step 006SGS191). If the time saving flag is off (step 006SGS191; N), proceed to step 006SGS196, and if the time saving flag is on (step 006SGS191; Y), check whether the value of the time saving number counter is "0" or not. judge. If the value of the time saving number counter is "0" (step 006SGS192; Y), the process advances to step 006SGS196.

On the other hand, if the value of the time saving number counter is not "0" (step 006SGS192; N), that is, if the time saving number remains in a high base state, the value of the time saving number counter is -1 (step 006SGS192;N). 006SGS193). Then, it is determined whether the value of the time saving number counter after the subtraction is "0" (step 006SGS194), and if it is not "0" (step 006SGS194; N), the process proceeds to step 006SGS196, and the value of the time saving number counter is determined. is "0" (step 006SGS194; Y), in order to end the time-saving control, the time-saving flag is cleared and turned off (step 006SGS195), and then the time-saving flag corresponding to the state of the probability change flag or the time-saving flag is After setting the transmission of a gaming state designation command corresponding to the gaming state (specifically, low probability low base) (step 006SGS195), the process advances to step 006SGS196.

In step 006SGS196, the transmission setting of the gaming state designation command is performed according to the state of the probability change flag and the time saving flag. Then, after updating the value of the special symbol process flag to "0", which is a value corresponding to the special symbol normal processing, the special symbol stop processing is ended (step 006SGS197).

(Jackpot end processing)
FIG. 33 is a flowchart showing an example of the process executed in S117 of FIG. 27 as the jackpot end process.

In the jackpot end process, the CPU 103 determines whether the jackpot end display timer is in operation, that is, the timer is counting (step 006SGS201). If the jackpot end display timer is not operating (step 006SGS201; N), a value corresponding to the display time corresponding to the time for displaying the jackpot end on the image display device 5 (jackpot end display time) is set in the jackpot end display timer. is set (step 006 SGS202), and the process ends.

On the other hand, if the jackpot end display timer is in operation (step 006SGS201; Y), the value of the jackpot end display timer is subtracted by 1 (step 006SGS203). Then, the CPU 103 checks whether the value of the jackpot end display timer is 0, that is, whether the jackpot end display time has elapsed (step 006 SGS204). If the time has not elapsed, the process ends.

If the jackpot end display time has elapsed (step 006SGS204; Y), the CPU 103 determines whether the stored jackpot type is a variable jackpot (step 006SGS205).

If the stored jackpot type is not a non-probability variable jackpot (step 006SGS205; N), the probability variation flag and time saving flag are turned on (step 006SGS207, step 006SGS208). Further, the time saving number counter is set to "0" (step 006SGS209), and the process proceeds to step 006SGS213.

On the other hand, if the jackpot type is a variable jackpot (step 006SGS205; Y), step 006SGS211 and step 006SGS212 are executed to turn on the time-saving flag and set "100" to the time-saving counter. After that, the process proceeds to step 006SGS213.

In step 006SGS213, the jackpot flag is turned off, and settings are made to send a jackpot end designation command according to the jackpot type (step 006SGS214). Then, after setting the transmission of a gaming state designation command to notify the production control board 12 of the gaming state based on the probability change flag and time saving flag that have been turned on (step 006 SGS215), the value of the special figure process flag is specially set. It is updated to "0", which is a value corresponding to the symbol normal processing, and the jackpot end processing is ended (step 006 SGS216).

(Main operations of the production control board 12)
Next, the main operations in the production control board 12 will be explained. When the effect control board 12 receives power supply voltage from a power source board or the like, the effect control CPU 120 is activated and executes effect control main processing as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 34. When the production control main process shown in FIG. Performs register settings for the installed CTC (counter/timer circuit).

Thereafter, it is determined whether the timer interrupt flag is on (step S73). The timer interrupt flag is set to an on state every time a predetermined time (for example, 2 milliseconds) elapses, based on, for example, a register setting of the CTC. At this time, if the timer interrupt flag is off (step S73; No), the process of step S73 is repeatedly executed and the process waits.

Furthermore, on the side of the production control board 12, an interrupt for receiving a production control command from the main board 11 is generated in addition to a timer interrupt that occurs every time a predetermined time elapses. This interrupt is, for example, an interrupt that occurs when the effect control INT signal from the main board 11 is turned on. When an interrupt occurs due to the production control INT signal being turned on, the production control CPU 120 automatically disables interrupts, but if a CPU that does not automatically disable interrupts is used, interrupts are disabled. It is desirable to issue a prohibition order (DI order). The production control CPU 120 executes, for example, a predetermined command reception interrupt process in response to an interrupt caused by the production control INT signal being turned on. In this command reception interrupt process, an effect control command is taken in from a predetermined input port included in the I/O 125 that receives a control signal transmitted from the main board 11 via the relay board 15. The production control command taken in at this time is stored in a production control command reception buffer provided in the RAM 122, for example. After that, the production control CPU 120 sets the interrupt permission, and then ends the command reception interrupt process.

If the timer interrupt flag is on in step S73 (step S73; Yes), the timer interrupt flag is cleared and turned off (step S74), and command analysis processing is executed (step S75). In the command analysis process, for example, after reading various production control commands transmitted from the game control microcomputer 100 of the main board 11 and stored in the production control command reception buffer, the read production control commands are Corresponding settings and controls are performed. For example, the read performance control command may be stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 122 or stored in the RAM 122 so that the performance control command received and the content specified by the performance control command can be confirmed in the performance control process processing. Turn on the provided reception flag. Further, when the performance control command specifies a gaming state, the display control unit 123 may be instructed to display a background according to the gaming state.

After executing the command analysis process in step S75, the production control process process is executed (step S76). In the effect control process processing, for example, the display operation of the effect image on the display screen of the image display device 5, the sound output operation from the speakers 8L and 8R, the lighting operation of decorative light emitters such as the game effect lamp 9 and the decorative LED, and the movable body 32. Control is performed to operate various presentation devices, such as driving operations. Further, regarding the content of control of performance operations using various performance devices, judgments, decisions, settings, etc. are performed in accordance with performance control commands transmitted from the main board 11.

Following the performance control process processing in step S76, a performance random number update process is executed (step S77), and at least a portion of the performance random numbers used on the performance control board 12 are updated by software. Furthermore, after the performance random value update process (step S77), a demonstration performance control process (step S78) for executing a demonstration performance in the pachinko gaming machine 1 and a background display displayed on the image display device 5 are performed. A background display update process (step S79) of updating to another background display is executed. Thereafter, the process returns to step S73. Other processes may be executed before returning to the process of step S73.

In addition, in the background display update process of the present embodiment, the image display device 5 updates the image display device 5 according to the execution of a specific effect (for example, a background change effect or a reach effect described later) or a change in the game state during variable display. It is possible to execute control to update the displayed background image.

In addition to the process of displaying a menu screen on the image display device 5 in the game standby state, the menu display process includes a process of displaying a menu screen on the image display device 5, and also a process of displaying a speaker on the speaker in response to the player's operation of the push button 31B while the menu screen is being displayed. This includes processing for adjusting the volume output from 8L and 8R, and processing for adjusting the amount of light (brightness) of the game effect lamp 9.

In addition, in the demonstration performance control process, the performance control CPU 120 sets a timer until starting the customer waiting demonstration performance, such as a wait timer for starting the customer waiting demonstration performance, based on, for example, receiving the customer waiting demonstration designation command, The customer waiting demonstration effect may be started based on the fact that the timer has timed out without starting the variable display. In addition, if the variable display starts while the customer waiting demonstration performance start wait timer is operating or the customer waiting demonstration performance is being executed, the customer waiting demonstration performance start waiting timer is cleared, the customer waiting demonstration performance is interrupted, The display on the image display device 5 may be switched to variable display of decorative patterns.

(Production control process processing)
FIG. 35 is a flowchart showing an example of the process executed in step S76 of FIG. 34 as the production control process process. In the production control process shown in FIG. 35, the production control CPU 120 first determines the display mode of the pending display displayed in the special figure pending storage display area 5U and the active display displayed in the active display area 5F. A display effect determination process is executed (step S160). Further, a pending display update process (step S161) is executed to update the display mode of the pending display in the special figure pending storage display area 5U and the display mode of the active display in the active display area 5F. Note that the pending display update process is also a process for starting anew the display of the pending display or active display whose display mode has been newly determined in the pending display effect determination process. After execution of the pending display update process, one of the following processes of steps S170 to S175 is selected and executed, depending on the value of the production process flag provided in the RAM 122, for example.

The variable display start waiting process in step S170 is a process that is executed when the value of the production process flag is "0" (initial value). This variable display start waiting process is a process of determining whether or not to start variable display of decorative patterns on the image display device 5 based on whether or not a command specifying the start of variable display has been received from the main board 11. Contains such as. When it is determined to start variable display of decorative symbols on the image display device 5, the value of the production process flag is updated to "1", and the variable display start waiting process is ended.

The variable display start setting process in step S171 is a process that is executed when the value of the production process flag is "1". In this variable display start setting process, based on the display result and fluctuation pattern specified by the production control command, the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern (determined decorative pattern), the mode of variable display of the decorative pattern, the reach effect, etc. It determines whether or not various performances such as preview performances are to be executed, their mode, execution start timing, and the like. Then, a performance control pattern (a collection of control data for instructing the display control unit 123 to execute the performance) that reflects the determination result etc. is set. Thereafter, based on the set performance control pattern, the display control unit 123 is instructed to start executing the variable display of decorative symbols, the value of the performance process flag is updated to "2", and the variable display start setting process is ended. The display control unit 123 causes the image display device 5 to start variable display of decorative symbols in response to an instruction to start variable display of decorative symbols.

The variable display effect processing in step S172 is a process that is executed when the value of the effect process flag is "2". In this variable display performance process, the performance control CPU 120 instructs the display control unit 123 to display a performance image based on the performance control pattern set in step S171 on the display screen of the image display device 5. , driving the movable body 32 , outputting audio and sound effects from the speakers 8L and 8R by outputting a command (sound effect signal) to the audio control board 13 , and outputting a command (illumination signal) to the lamp control board 14 . Various performance controls are executed during variable display of decorative patterns, such as turning on/off/flashing the game effect lamp 9 and decorative LEDs by outputting the output. After performing such performance control, for example, a termination code indicating the end of the variable display of decorative patterns has been read from the performance control pattern, or a command has been received from the main board 11 specifying that fixed decorative patterns should be stopped and displayed. In response to what has been done, etc., the determined decorative pattern that becomes the display result of the decorative pattern is stopped and displayed. When the fixed decorative pattern is stopped and displayed, the value of the production process flag is updated to "3", and the variable display production process is completed.

The special figure hit waiting process in step S173 is a process that is executed when the value of the production process flag is "3". In this special figure winning waiting process, the performance control CPU 120 determines whether or not a performance control command has been received from the main board 11 that designates starting a jackpot game state. Then, when receiving a production control command specifying to start a jackpot game state, the value of the production process flag is updated to "4". In addition, if the waiting time for receiving the command elapses without receiving a command specifying the start of the jackpot game state, the display result in the special figure game is determined to be a "loss", and the presentation process flag is flagged. The value of is updated to the initial value "0". When the value of the production process flag is updated, the waiting process for each special figure ends.

The jackpot performance process in step S174 is a process that is executed when the value of the performance process flag is "4". In this jackpot performance process, the performance control CPU 120 sets, for example, a performance control pattern corresponding to the performance content in the jackpot game state, and executes various performance controls in the jackpot game state based on the set content. In addition, in the jackpot production process, for example, in response to receiving a command from the main board 11 to specify ending the jackpot game state, the value of the production process flag is set to "5", which is a value corresponding to the ending production process. ” and ends the jackpot performance process.

The ending effect processing in step S175 is a process that is executed when the value of the effect process flag is "5". In this ending performance processing, the performance control CPU 120 sets a performance control pattern corresponding to the end of the jackpot game state, for example, and performs various performance controls of the ending performance at the end of the jackpot game state based on the setting contents. Execute. Thereafter, the value of the production process flag is updated to the initial value "0", and the ending production process is ended.

(Hold display performance determination process)
FIG. 36 shows the determination ratio of the display mode of the pending display and active display in the pending display effect shown in FIG. 35. In the pending display performance determination process, the performance control CPU 120 first refers to the starting winning reception command buffer 006SGS194A shown in FIG. 24(B) and identifies the presence or absence of an entry for which the pending display flag is not set. If there is an entry for which the pending display flag is not set, specify the variable display result from the symbol designation command in that entry and the variable category from the variable category command in that entry, and combine these specified variable display results with the variable category. Based on this, it is determined whether or not to execute the hold display effect and the effect pattern, that is, the display mode of the hold display and the active display.

For example, as shown in FIG. 36, if the variable display result is a jackpot, it is decided at a rate of 5% not to execute the pending display effect, and at a rate of 25% it is decided to execute the held display effect in the effect pattern α. Then, at a rate of 70%, it is decided to execute the performance pattern β of the suspended display performance. In addition, if the variable display result is off and the variable category is non-reach, 95% of the time it is decided not to execute the pending display effect, and 5% of the time it is decided to execute the pending display effect in production pattern α. Then, at a rate of 0%, the performance pattern β of the suspended display performance is determined to be executed. In addition, if the variable display result is off and the variable category is other (normal reach), 75% of the time it is decided not to execute the pending display effect, and 20% of the time it is decided to execute the pending display effect with the effect pattern α. is determined, and the performance pattern β of the suspended display performance is determined to be executed at a rate of 5%. In addition, if the variable display result is off and the variable category is super reach, 65% of the time it is decided not to execute the pending display effect, and 25% of the time it is decided to execute the pending display effect in production pattern α. Then, it is decided to execute the performance pattern β of the suspended display performance at a rate of 10%.

After determining whether or not to execute the hold display effect and the effect pattern as described above, the effect control CPU 120 sets the value of the hold display flag of the entry as " If the value of the pending display flag of the entry is set to 1, and the performance pattern α of the pending display notice effect is set to ``1'', and the performance pattern β of the pending display notice effect is set. If execution has been determined, "2" is set as the value of the pending display flag of the entry.

In this embodiment, after setting a value of 0 to 2 in the pending display flag corresponding to each entry in the starting winning reception command buffer 006SG194A as described above, the production control CPU 120 performs the pending display updating process (step S61). ), if the value of the pending display flag is set to 0, the pending display or active display corresponding to the pending display flag will be displayed as a white circle (○), and the pending display If "1" is set as the value of the flag, the pending display or active display corresponding to the pending display flag is displayed as a white square (◇), and "2" is set as the value of the pending display flag. In this case, the pending display or active display corresponding to the pending display flag is displayed as a white star (☆).

Due to these settings, if the hold display or active display is displayed as a white square in display pattern A or a white star shape in display pattern B, or if the hold display or active display is displayed as a white circle. If the ratio of being controlled to a jackpot gaming state (jackpot expectation level) is higher than that of display pattern B, and if the pending display or active display is displayed in a white star shape in display pattern B, then the pending display or active display is changed to display pattern A. Since the percentage of jackpot gaming state control (jackpot expectation level) is higher than when it is displayed as a white rectangle, the display mode of these pending displays and active displays, that is, whether the pending display effect is executed or not. It is possible to draw the attention of the player to the performance pattern.

(Variable display start setting process)
FIG. 37 is a flowchart showing the variable display start setting process (step S171) in the production control process shown in FIG. In the variable display start setting process, the production control CPU 120 first determines whether or not the first variable display start command reception flag is on (step 006SGS271). If the first variable display start command reception flag is in the on state (step 006SGS271; Y), the buffer number of the first special figure pending memory in the start winning reception command buffer 006SG194A is "1-0" to "1-4". Various command data and various flags stored in association with are shifted upward by one buffer number (step 006SGS272). Note that the contents of buffer number "1-0" cannot be shifted because there is no destination to shift them to, so they are erased.

Specifically, various command data and various flags stored in correspondence with buffer number "1-1" in the first special figure reservation memory are shifted to be stored in correspondence with buffer number "1-0". Then, the various command data and various flags stored in correspondence with the buffer number "1-2" of the first special figure reservation memory are shifted so as to be stored in correspondence with the buffer number "1-1", and the The various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer number "1-3" of the 1st special figure pending memory are shifted so as to be stored in association with the buffer number "1-2", and the 1st special figure Various command data and various flags stored in association with buffer numbers "1-4" in the pending storage are shifted so as to be stored in association with buffer numbers "1-3".

If the first variable display start command reception flag is off in step 006SGS271 (step 006SGS271; N), it is determined whether the second variable display start command reception flag is on (step 006SGS273). If the second variable display start command reception flag is off (step 006SGS273; N), the variable display start setting process is ended, and if the second variable display start command reception flag is on (step 006SGS273; Y ), the various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer numbers "2-0" to "2-4" of the second special figure pending memory in the start winning command buffer 006SG194A are stored in one buffer number. Shift upward by minutes (step 006SGS274). Note that the contents of buffer number "2-0" cannot be shifted because there is no destination to shift them to, so they are erased.

Specifically, various command data and various flags stored in association with buffer number "2-1" in the second special figure reservation memory are shifted to be stored in association with buffer number "2-0". Then, the various command data and various flags stored in correspondence with the buffer number "2-2" in the second special figure reservation memory are shifted so as to be stored in correspondence with the buffer number "2-1", and the The various command data and various flags stored in correspondence with the buffer number "2-3" of the 2nd special figure pending memory are shifted so as to be stored in correspondence with the buffer number "2-2", and the 2nd special figure Various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer number "2-4" in the pending storage are shifted so as to be stored in association with the buffer number "2-3".

After executing step 006SGS272 or step 006SGS274, the production control CPU 120 reads the fluctuation pattern designation command from the fluctuation pattern designation command storage area (step 006SGS275).

Next, the display result (stop symbol) of the decorative symbol is determined according to the data stored in the display result designation command storage area (that is, the received display result designation command) (step 006SGS276). In this case, the performance control CPU 120 determines the stop symbols of the decorative symbols according to the display result specified by the display result designation command, and stores data indicating the determined stop symbols of the decorative symbols in the decorative symbol display result storage area. do.

In addition, in this characteristic part 006SG, when the received variable display result designation command is the second variable display result designation command corresponding to probability variable jackpot A, the production control CPU 120, for example, displays 3 symbols as "7" as the stop symbols. ” to determine the combination of decorative patterns (jackpot pattern). In addition, if the received variable display result designation command is the third variable display result designation command corresponding to probability variable jackpot B or the fourth variable display result specification command corresponding to probability variable jackpot C, "7" is displayed as the stop symbol. It is determined from among a plurality of combinations of odd-numbered symbols (for example, combinations of decorative symbols such as "111", "333", "555", and "999"). In addition, when the received variable display result designation command is the fifth variable display result designation command corresponding to a non-probable variable jackpot, the performance control CPU 120, for example, selects a decorative pattern in which three symbols are arranged in an even number as a stop symbol. Determine the combination (jackpot symbol). In addition, if the received variable display result designation command is the first variable display result designation command that corresponds to a loss, depending on the fluctuation pattern, a combination in which three symbols are irregular as a stop symbol, a combination such as "767", etc. Determine the combination (missing symbol) that will result in the out-of-reach.

In determining these stop symbols, the production control CPU 120 extracts random numbers for determining the stop symbols, and uses a stop symbol determination table in which numerical values are associated with data indicating combinations of decorative symbols. Then, the stop symbol of the decorative symbol can be determined. That is, the stop symbols may be determined by selecting data indicating a combination of decorative symbols corresponding to numerical values that match the extracted random numbers.

After executing step 006SGS276, the performance control CPU 120 performs a continuous cracking performance setting process (step 006SGS277) for executing a continuous cracking performance during variable display, and a dialogue preview performance setting for executing a dialogue preview performance during variable display. processing (step 006SGS278), background change effect setting process for executing a background change effect during variable display (step 006SGS279), reach suggestion effect setting process for executing a reach suggestion effect during variable display (step 006SGS280), A cut-in effect setting process (step 006SGS281) for executing a cut-in effect during variable display is executed.

Then, the performance control CPU 120 selects a performance control pattern (process table) according to the variation pattern designation command (step 006SGS282), and starts a process timer in process data 1 of the selected process table (step 006SGS283).

The process table includes display control execution data for controlling the display of the image display device 5, lamp control execution data for controlling the lighting of each LED, and data for controlling the sound output from the speakers 8L and 8R. Sound control execution data, operation part control execution data for controlling the operation of the push button 31B and stick controller 31A, etc. are arranged in chronological order in correspondence with each process data n (numbers 1 to N). There is.

Next, the performance control CPU 120 controls the performance device (image display as a performance component) according to the contents of the process data 1 (display control execution data 1, lamp control execution data 1, sound control execution data 1, operation unit control execution data 1). The device 5, various lamps as performance parts, speakers 8L and 8R as performance parts, and operation units (push button 31B, stick controller 31A, etc.) are controlled (step 006SGS284). For example, a command is output to the display control unit 123 in order to display an image according to the variation pattern on the image display device 5. Further, in order to control the lighting/extinguishing of various lamps, a control signal (lamp control execution data) is output to the lamp control board 14. In addition, a control signal (sound number data) is output to the audio control board 13 in order to output audio from the speakers 8L and 8R.

In addition, in this embodiment, the performance control CPU 120 performs control so that the decorative symbols are displayed variably according to the variation pattern that corresponds one-to-one to the variation pattern designation command; however, the production control CPU 120 The variation pattern to be used may be selected from a plurality of types of variation patterns corresponding to the designated command.

Then, a value corresponding to the variable display time specified by the variable pattern designation command is set in the variable display time timer (step 006SGS285). Also, a predetermined time is set in the variable display control timer (step 006SGS286). In addition, the predetermined time is, for example, 30 ms, and the performance control CPU 120 writes image data indicating the display state of the decorative pattern on the center left to the VRAM every time the predetermined time elapses, and the display control unit 123 writes the image data to the VRAM. A signal corresponding to the image data obtained is output to the image display device 5, and the image display device 5 displays an image corresponding to the signal, thereby achieving variable display (fluctuation) of the decorative pattern. Next, the value of the production control process flag is set to a value corresponding to the production process during variable display (step S172) (step 006SGS287).

(Continuous cracking effect setting process)
FIG. 38(A) is a flowchart showing the continuous crack effect setting process (step 006SGS277) in the variable display start setting process shown in FIG. In the continuous breaking performance setting process, the performance control CPU 120 first determines whether the gaming state is the normal state (step 006SGS311). If the gaming state is the normal state (step 006SGS311; Y), refer to the start winning reception command buffer 006SG194A and check whether there is an entry for which the value of the continuous breaking effect flag (“0” or “1”) is not set. (Step 006SGS312), and determines whether there is an entry in which the value of the continuous crack effect flag is set (Step 006SGS313).

If there is no entry with the value of the continuous breaking effect flag set (step 006SGS313; N), proceed to step 006SGS318, and if there is an entry with the value of the continuous breaking effect flag set (step 006SGS313; Y), Based on the symbol designation command and variable category command stored in the entry, it is determined whether or not to execute the continuous breaking effect (step 006SGS314). In addition, the continuous breaking effect in the normal state in this embodiment is performed over a plurality of variable displays for variable displays that have not yet been executed, so that the variable display result of the target variable display becomes a jackpot. This is a performance that suggests that something will happen (see Figure 41).

When the gaming state is the normal state, the performance control CPU 120 in step 006SGS314, as shown in FIG. Then, it is decided to execute the continuous cracking effect at a rate of 80%. Further, when the variable display result is a loss and the variable category is non-reach, it is determined at a rate of 80% not to perform the continuous break performance, and at a rate of 20% it is determined to execute the continuous break performance. Further, when the variable display result is a loss and the variable category is other (normal reach), it is determined at a rate of 60% not to perform the continuous break performance, and at a rate of 40% it is determined to execute the continuous break performance. Further, when the variable display result is a loss and the variable category is super reach, it is determined at a rate of 50% not to perform the continuous break performance, and at a rate of 50% it is determined to execute the continuous break performance.

In addition, when the gaming state is the time saving state/variable probability state, in step 006SGS314, the performance control CPU 120 determines not to execute the continuous cracking performance at a rate of 30%, if the variable display result is a jackpot, and at a rate of 70%. The execution of the continuous cracking effect is determined at the rate of . When the variable display result is a loss and the variable category is non-reach, it is determined at a rate of 70% not to perform the continuous break performance, and at a rate of 30% it is determined to execute the continuous break performance. Further, when the variable display result is a loss and the variable category is normal reach, it is determined at a rate of 50% not to perform the continuous break performance, and at a rate of 50% it is determined to execute the continuous break performance. Further, when the variable display result is a loss and the variable category is super reach, it is determined at a rate of 40% not to perform the continuous break effect, and at a rate of 60% it is determined to execute the continuous break effect. As described above, in the present embodiment, the proportion of control to the jackpot game state when the continuous breaking performance is executed, that is, the jackpot expectation level, is different between the normal state and the time saving state/variable probability state.

Then, the performance control CPU 120 determines whether or not it has been decided to execute the continuous breaking performance in the process of step 006SGS314 (step 006SGS315). If it is determined to execute the continuous breaking effect (step 006SGS315; Y), the effect control CPU 120 sets the value of the continuous breaking effect flag of the entry to "1", proceeds to step 006SGS318, and decides not to execute the continuous breaking effect. If it is determined (step 006SGS315; N), the effect control CPU 120 sets "0" as the value of the continuous break effect flag of the entry, and proceeds to step 006SGS318.

Next, in step 006SGS318, the performance control CPU 120 determines whether there is an entry in which "1" is set as the value of the consecutive breaking performance flag, that is, whether or not it has been decided to execute the continuous breaking performance. (Step 006SGS318). If there is no entry for which "1" is set as the value of the continuous breaking effect flag (step 006SGS318; N), the continuous breaking effect setting process is ended, and "1" is set as the value of the continuous breaking effect flag. If there is an entry (Step 006SGS318; Y), it is further determined whether the entry whose continuous winning effect flag is set to "1" is an entry corresponding to the variable display, that is, the start winning reception command. It is determined whether the entry is stored in the storage area of buffer number "1-0" or "2-0" of buffer 006SG194A (step 006SGS319).

If the entry for which "1" is set as the value of the continuous breaking effect flag is not an entry corresponding to the variable display (step 006SGS319; N), it is determined that the variable display is not the target variable display of the continuous breaking effect. The execution setting of the first continuous cracking effect according to the above is performed, and the continuous breaking effect setting process is completed (step 006SGS320), and the entry for which "1" is set as the value of the continuous breaking effect flag is the entry corresponding to the variable display. If so (Step 006SGS319; Y), it is further determined whether the variable display is a variable display with a non-reach or normal reach variation pattern (Step 006SGS321). If the variable display is a variable display with a non-reach or normal reach variation pattern (step 006SGS321; Y), the continuous cracking effect setting process is terminated, and if the variable display is a variable display with a super reach variation pattern (step 006SGS321; Y), 006SGS321;N) sets the execution of the second continuous cracking effect according to the fact that the variable display is the target variable display of the continuous breaking effect, and ends the continuous breaking effect setting process (step 006SGS322).

In other words, in this embodiment, if it is decided to execute a continuous cracking effect when the gaming state is the normal state, the first continuous breaking effect is executed in the variable display before the variable display that is the target of the continuous breaking effect. do. Then, in the variable display that is the target of the continuous cracking effect, if the variable display is a variable display with a non-reach or normal reach variation pattern, the second continuous cracking effect will not be executed; In the case of a variable display with a variable pattern, a second continuous cracking effect is executed.

In addition, when the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state (step 006SGS311; N), the performance control CPU 120 performs execution settings for a continuous breaking performance according to the fluctuation pattern of the variable display, and performs a continuous breaking performance setting process. (Step 006SGS323). For example, in step 006SGS323, the performance control CPU 120 first determines whether or not to execute the continuous breaking performance according to the fluctuation pattern of the variable display. At this time, if the fluctuation pattern of the variable display is a non-reach fluctuation pattern, the continuous cracking effect is determined at the lowest rate, and if the fluctuation pattern of the variable display is a super reach fluctuation pattern, the continuous cracking effect is determined. It is sufficient to determine the highest ratio (execution ratio of consecutive cracking effects for each variation pattern: super reach > normal reach > non-reach). Then, when it is decided to execute a continuous breaking effect, if the fluctuation pattern of the variable display is non-reach, the setting for executing the continuous breaking effect (first continuous breaking effect) once or twice in the variable display is set. , and if the fluctuation pattern of the variable display is normal reach or super reach, the first consecutive cracking effect will be executed twice in the variable display, and the second consecutive effect will be executed once after the two first consecutive breaking effects. All you have to do is set up the execution of the cracking effect.

In other words, the continuous break performance in the time saving state and variable probability state of this embodiment is a performance that can be executed multiple times in one variable display, and is a performance that suggests that the reach will depend on the number of executions. ing.

(Speech preview production setting process)
FIG. 39(A) is a flowchart showing the dialogue preview effect setting process (step 006SGS278) in the variable display start setting process shown in FIG. In the variable display start setting process, the performance control CPU 120 first determines whether the variation pattern of the variable display is a shortened non-reach (step 006SGS331). If the variation pattern of the variable display is shortened non-reach (step 006SGS331; Y), the dialogue preview effect setting process is finished, and if the variation pattern of the variable display is non-shortened non-reach, normal reach, or super reach. If yes (step 006SGS331; N), the execution or non-execution of dialogue preview performance and the performance pattern are determined according to the variable pattern and the variable display result (step 006SGS332).

For example, as shown in FIG. 39(B), if the variable pattern is non-reachable and the variable display result is off, the non-execution of the dialogue preview performance is determined at a rate of 70%, and the performance pattern A of the dialogue preview performance is determined. 30% of the time. In addition, if the variation pattern is normal reach and the variable display result is off, the non-execution of the dialogue preview performance is determined at a rate of 60%, and the execution of the dialogue preview performance in production pattern A is determined at a rate of 35%. , the execution of dialogue preview performance in performance pattern B is determined at a rate of 5%. In addition, if the variable pattern is super reach and the variable display result is off, the non-execution of the dialogue preview performance is determined at a rate of 40%, and the execution of the dialogue preview performance in production pattern A is determined at a rate of 10%. Then, the execution of the dialogue preview performance in performance pattern B is determined at a rate of 20%, and the execution of the dialogue preview performance in performance pattern C is determined at a rate of 30%. If the variable display result is a jackpot, it is determined at a rate of 10% whether or not to perform the line preview performance, and at a rate of 5% whether or not to perform the line preview performance in production pattern A. The execution of pattern B is determined at a rate of 10%, and the execution of the performance pattern C of the dialogue preview performance is determined at a rate of 75%.

As shown in FIG. 39(C), production pattern A displays the line "Chance!?" in the area generated in the display area of the image display device 5 in the cracking production executed as part of the speech preview production. The performance pattern B is a performance pattern in which the line "Chi hot!" is displayed in the area generated in the display area of the image display device 5 in the cracking performance executed as part of the dialogue preview performance, The performance pattern C is a performance pattern in which the line "It's super hot!" is displayed in the area generated in the display area of the image display device 5 in the cracking performance executed as part of the dialogue preview performance.

In addition, regarding this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 39(B), when the dialogue preview performance is executed during the variable display, the control is made to be in a jackpot game state more than when the dialogue preview performance is not executed (non-execution). The percentage of Furthermore, when the dialogue preview performance is executed, the ratio of being controlled to the jackpot game state is set to be highest when the dialogue preview performance is executed in the performance pattern C, and when the dialogue preview performance is performed in the performance pattern A. The ratio of being controlled to the jackpot gaming state is set to be the lowest when executed in A > non-execution).

(Background change effect setting process)
Next, the background change effect setting process (step 006SGS279) shown in FIG. 37 will be explained. In the background change effect setting process, the effect control CPU 120 first determines whether the variation patterns of the variable display are PA1-1, PA1-6, PA1-7, PA2-1, PA2-2, PA2-3, PA2-4, PA2. -7, PB1-1, PB1-2, PB1-3, PB1-4, and PB1-7. The fluctuation patterns of the variable display are PA1-1, PA1-6, PA1-7, PA2-1, PA2-2, PA2-3, PA2-4, PA2-7, PB1-1, PB1-2, PB1-3. , PB1-4, or PB1-7, refer to the reception command buffer 006SG194A at the time of starting winning.

When the gaming state is in the normal state, if the symbol designation command indicating a jackpot is not stored in the start winning reception command buffer 006SG194A, that is, if there is no pending memory that indicates a jackpot, as shown in FIG. 40(A). Then, it is decided at a rate of 60% not to change the background image and not to perform the background change effect, and to perform the failure pattern of the background change effect while not executing the change of the background image (the fluctuation pattern of the variable display is If it is any of PA1-1, PA2-1, PA2-3, PB1-1, PB1-3, background change effect A is executed with the failure pattern, and the fluctuation pattern of the variable display is PA2-2, PA2-4. , PB1-2, PB1-4, execution of background change effect B with failure pattern is determined at a rate of 30%, and execution of background image change and execution of background change effect with success pattern is determined. (If the variation pattern of the variable display is one of PA1-1, PA2-1, PA2-3, PB1-1, PB1-3, the success pattern of background change effect A is executed, the variation pattern of the variable display is If it is one of PA2-2, PA2-4, PB1-2, and PB1-4, execution of background change effect B in a successful pattern is determined at a rate of 10%. In addition, when the gaming state is in the time saving state/variable probability state, if the symbol designation command indicating a jackpot is not stored in the starting winning reception command buffer 006SG194A, that is, if there is no pending memory that will result in a jackpot, the background image It is decided at a rate of 50% not to perform the change and not to perform the background change effect, and to not perform the change of the background image and to execute the background change effect with a failure pattern (the fluctuation pattern of the variable display is PB1-7, PA1 -5, PA1-6, PA2-7, the execution with the failure pattern of background change effect A) is determined at a rate of 45%, and the execution of the change of the background image and the success pattern of the background change effect are determined. (If the variation pattern of the variable display is one of PB1-7, PA1-5, PA1-6, PA2-7, execution with the success pattern of background change effect A) is determined at a rate of 5%. .

In addition, when the gaming state is the normal state, if a symbol designation command indicating a jackpot is stored in the starting winning reception command buffer 006SG194A, that is, if there is a pending memory that will become a jackpot, then FIG. 40(A) As shown, it is decided at a rate of 30% not to change the background image and not to perform the background change effect, and to perform the failure pattern of the background change effect without executing the change of the background image (change of the variable display concerned). If the pattern is one of PA1-1, PA2-1, PA2-3, PB1-1, PB1-3, the background change effect A is executed with the failure pattern, and the fluctuation pattern of the variable display is PA2-2, PA2. -4, PB1-2, PB1-4, the execution with the failure pattern of background change effect B) is determined at a rate of 0%, and the execution of the change of the background image and the success pattern of the background change effect are determined. (If the variation pattern of the variable display is one of PA1-1, PA2-1, PA2-3, PB1-1, PB1-3, execution of the success pattern of background change effect A, If the variation pattern is one of PA2-2, PA2-4, PB1-2, and PB1-4, execution of background change effect B with a successful pattern is determined at a rate of 70%. In addition, when the gaming state is in the time-saving state/variable probability state, if a symbol designation command indicating a jackpot is stored in the starting winning reception command buffer 006SG194A, that is, if there is a pending memory of a jackpot, the background image Deciding not to perform the change and not to perform the background change effect at a rate of 20%, not to change the background image, and to execute the background change effect with a failure pattern (the fluctuation pattern of the variable display is PB1-7, PA1 -5, PA1-6, PA2-7, the execution with the failure pattern of background change effect A) is determined at a rate of 0%, and the execution of the background image change and the success pattern of the background change effect is determined. execution (if the variation pattern of the variable display is one of PB1-7, PA1-5, PA1-6, PA2-7, execution with the success pattern of background change effect A) is determined at a rate of 80%. As described above, in this embodiment, the proportion of control to the jackpot gaming state when the background change effect is executed, that is, the jackpot expectation level, is different between the normal state and the time saving state/variable probability state.

In addition, when it is decided to execute the background change effect in any of the effect patterns, the execution settings are made according to the effect pattern of the background change effect, and the background change effect is executed in the variable display during effect processing according to the execution settings. Just do it. Further, when it is determined to change the background image (when it is determined to execute the background change effect in a successful pattern), the background image change setting is performed. Note that the background image may be changed in the background display update process (step S79) shown in FIG. 34.

(Reach suggestion effect setting process)
Next, the reach suggestion effect setting process (step 006SGS280) shown in FIG. 37 will be explained. In the reach suggestion performance setting process, the performance control CPU 120 first determines whether the variation pattern of the variable display is one of PA2-1, PA2-3, PB1-1, and PB1-3. If the variation pattern of the variable display is one of PA2-1, PA2-3, PB1-1, or PB1-3, the execution or non-execution of the reach suggestion performance and the reach suggestion performance are determined according to the variation pattern of the variable display. Determine the performance pattern.

For example, as shown in FIG. 40(B), if the variation pattern of the variable display is a non-reach variation pattern, non-execution of the reach suggestion effect is determined at a rate of 80%, and the failure pattern of the reach suggestion effect is determined. 20% of the time. In addition, if the variation pattern of the variable display is a reach variation pattern, non-execution of the reach suggestion effect is determined at a rate of 30%, and execution of the reach suggestion effect in a successful pattern is determined at a rate of 70%. . In other words, in this embodiment, when the reach-suggesting performance is executed, the reach (normal reach or super-reach reach performance) is set to be executed at a higher rate than when the reach-suggesting performance is not executed. . Furthermore, when a reach-suggesting performance is executed, the player is notified that the reach-suggesting performance is executed in a failure pattern and does not result in a reach, while the reach-suggesting performance is executed in a successful pattern. The player is informed that the game is a reach by executing the game.

In addition, if it is decided to execute the reach-suggesting performance in any of the performance patterns, the execution settings are made according to the performance pattern of the reach-suggesting performance, and the reach-suggesting performance is executed in the variable display performance process according to the execution settings. Just do it.

(Cut-in effect setting process)
Next, the cut-in effect setting process (step 006SGS281) shown in FIG. 37 will be explained. In the cut-in effect setting process, the effect control CPU 120 first determines whether the variation pattern of the variable display is one of PA2-3, PA2-4, PB1-3, PB1-4, PA2-7, and PB1-7. Determine whether or not. If the variation pattern of the variable display is one of PA2-3, PA2-4, PB1-3, PB1-4, PA2-7, PB1-7, cut-in is performed according to the variable display result of the variable display. Decide whether or not to perform the performance and the performance pattern of the cut-in performance.

For example, when the gaming state is in the normal state, as shown in FIG. Execution in pattern X is determined at a rate of 30%, and execution in production pattern Y of cut-in performance is determined at a rate of 5%. In addition, if the variable display result is a jackpot, the non-execution of the cut-in effect is determined at a rate of 10%, the execution of the cut-in effect in the effect pattern X is determined at a rate of 20%, and the effect pattern of the cut-in effect is determined at a rate of 20%. Decide whether to execute Y at a rate of 70%.

That is, in the present embodiment, when the cut-in effect is executed, it is set so that the jackpot gaming state is controlled at a higher rate than when the cut-in effect is not executed. Furthermore, when the cut-in effect is executed, when the cut-in effect is executed with the effect pattern Y, the jackpot game state is controlled at a higher rate than when the cut-in effect is executed with the effect pattern X. (Presence or absence of cut-in performance and jackpot expectation level of performance pattern: performance pattern Y>performance pattern X>cut-in performance not executed). In addition, when the gaming state is in the time saving state/variable probability state, if the variable display result is a failure, the non-execution of the cut-in effect is determined at a rate of 70%, and the execution of the cut-in effect in the effect pattern X is determined at a rate of 70%. %, and execution of the cut-in effect in production pattern Y is determined at a rate of 0%. In addition, if the variable display result is a jackpot, the non-execution of the cut-in effect is determined at a rate of 10%, the execution of the cut-in effect in the effect pattern X is determined at a rate of 15%, and the effect pattern of the cut-in effect is determined at a rate of 15%. Decide whether to execute Y at a rate of 75%. As described above, in the present embodiment, the proportion of control to the jackpot gaming state when the cut-in performance is executed, that is, the jackpot expectation level, is different between the normal state and the time saving state/variable probability state.

Note that the cut-in performance in this embodiment is a performance that displays different images depending on the performance pattern (for example, an image of the text "Heat!!", an image of the text "Chance!", etc.), This is a performance that differs in the rate at which the jackpot game state is controlled depending on which image is displayed (which performance pattern is executed) (in this embodiment, the performance pattern X is This is a production pattern that displays an image of the text "Chance!", and production pattern Y is a production pattern that displays an image of the text "Heat!!").

In addition, if it is decided to execute the cut-in performance using any of the performance patterns, the execution settings are made according to the performance pattern of the cut-in performance, and the cut-in performance is executed in the variable display performance process according to the execution settings. All you have to do is execute it.

In this embodiment, the cut-in effect is an effect accompanied by a cracking effect (see FIGS. 42 and 66), but the present invention is not limited to this, and the cut-in effect is As the performance pattern of the performance, a performance pattern with a cracking performance and a performance pattern without a cracking performance may be provided. For example, the performance pattern Y with a high expectation of a jackpot may be a performance pattern accompanied by a breaking performance, and the performance pattern X with a low expectation of a jackpot may be a performance pattern without a breaking performance. Furthermore, when the effect pattern X is a effect pattern that does not involve a crack effect, when the effect pattern for the cut-in effect is determined to be the effect pattern X, the display mode of the band-shaped image to be displayed on the image display device 5 is changed. The display color of the image may be determined from a plurality of aspects depending on the variable display result (for example, the display color of the image may be determined at different ratios from blue, green, and red depending on whether the variable display result is a jackpot or a loss). By doing this, it is possible to draw the player's attention to whether or not a cracking effect is included as a cut-in effect, and if a cracking effect is not included as a cut-in effect, an image that is further displayed is It is possible to draw the player's attention to the display mode.

(Explanation of production)
As described above, in this embodiment, it is possible to determine whether or not to execute a continuous break effect, a dialogue preview effect, a background change effect, a reach suggestion effect, and a cut-in effect at the start of the variable display. Furthermore, in this embodiment, in addition to the above-described continuous break effect, dialogue preview effect, background change effect, reach suggestion effect, and cut-in effect, a plurality of effects can be executed during variable display.

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 41 and 42, when the gaming state is the normal state, the first continuous breaking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, and the background change effect B. , a pseudo continuous performance, a reach suggestion performance, a weak development performance, a strong development performance A, a strong development performance B, a cut-in performance, and a result notification performance. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 43, when the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the background change effect A, the weak development effect, the strong development effect A, and the cut are performed. It is possible to perform in-effect and result notification effects. Note that the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, and the cut-in effect may be provided as effects that cannot be performed in a normal state and can only be performed in a time saving state or a variable probability state. In this case, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, and the cut-in effect are executed according to the determined ratios shown in FIGS. 38(B) and 40(C). In this way, different types of cracking effects can be performed in the normal state, the time saving state, and the variable probability state.

As shown in FIGS. 41 to 43, in the first continuous cracking effect, a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is The cracking effect in which the glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed as the image to be broken instead, is broken is an effect that is executed from the start timing of the variable display, and is not dependent on the movement of the movable body 32 or the action of the character, etc. This is an effect in which a crack occurs and only the part where the crack occurs breaks (the cracking range is only a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301). In addition, the first continuous cracking effect improves the visibility of the background image between the target area of the cracking effect (the area that is part of the display area of the image display device 5 and is broken by the cracking effect) and other display areas. It's also a different performance. Furthermore, while the first continuous cracking effect is an effect that may be executed in the variable display before the variable display to be read ahead, in the time saving state or the variable probability state, it may be executed multiple times during the execution of the first variable display. This is a performance that is likely to occur, and is also a performance that suggests that the variable display result will be a jackpot depending on the number of times it is executed.

The second continuous crack effect is a crack effect in which a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and a glass plate image 006SG301A that is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301 is broken. is an effect that is executed from the start timing of the variable display, and a crack occurs in the glass plate image 006SG301 regardless of the movement of the movable body or the action of the character, and only the part where the crack occurs breaks (the cracking area is This is only a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A that is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301). In addition, the second continuous cracking effect improves the visibility of the background image between the target area of the cracking effect (the area that is part of the display area of the image display device 5 and is broken by the cracking effect) and other display areas. It's also a different performance. Furthermore, the second continuous cracking effect is an effect that may be executed in the variable display of the prefetch target.

The dialogue preview performance is an operation promotion performance in which an operation promotion image is displayed at a predetermined position of the display area of the image display device 5 (for example, in the center of the display area) to prompt the player to operate the push button 31B. Thereafter, in response to the operation of the push button 31B, a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and a glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301. This is a performance in which a cracking effect is performed, in which a crack occurs in the glass plate image 006SG301 regardless of the movement of the movable body or the action of the character, and only the part where the crack occurs breaks (the cracking area is the glass plate image This is only a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed instead of 006SG301). In addition, the dialogue preview effect is a effect in which the visibility of the background image differs between the target area of the cracking effect (the area that is part of the display area of the image display device 5 and is broken by the cracking effect) and other display areas. At the same time, one of the words ``Chance!'', ``Hot!'', or ``Super Hot!'' is displayed in the cracked area (target area of the cracking effect), and the jackpot game state is controlled according to the displayed line. This is an effect in which the percentage of winning is different (the displayed dialogue suggests the percentage of being controlled to a jackpot game state (jackpot expectation level)).

In background change effect A, a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and a cracking effect in which the glass plate image 006SG301A that is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301 is broken. This is an effect that may change the background image when executed. In addition, background change effect A is a successful pattern in which a crack occurs in the glass plate image 006SG301 due to the action of the character, and the background image changes as the entire glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, breaks. There are cases in which the process is executed, and cases in which the process is executed in a failure pattern in which the background image does not change because the character does not appear and the glass plate image 006SG301A is not displayed (the glass plate image 006SG301A is not broken).

In the background change effect B, a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and a cracking effect is created in which the glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, breaks. This is an effect that may change the background image when executed. In addition, background change effect B is a successful pattern in which cracks occur in the glass plate image 006SG301 in two stages, and the background image changes as the entire glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, breaks. If the glass plate image 006SG301 has cracks in the first stage, but the second stage cracks do not occur and the glass plate image 006SG301A does not break, or the glass plate image 006SG301 has cracks in the first stage and the second stage. There are cases in which failure patterns (failure pattern 1 and failure pattern 2) are executed in which the background image does not change because the glass plate image 006SG301A does not break even though cracks occur in the first step.

In the pseudo continuous effect, when the decorative patterns are temporarily stopped in a specific combination during variable display, a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed on the display area of the image display device 5. This is an effect in which the re-variable display of the decorative pattern is started by executing a cracking effect in which the glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed instead of the plate image 006SG301, is broken, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is changed by the movement of the movable body 32. This is an effect in which a crack occurs and the entire glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, breaks. In addition, in this embodiment, the pseudo continuous effect is executed up to two times during one variable display, and as the first pseudo continuous effect, the color of the fragments of the broken glass plate image 006SG301A and The color of the fragments of the broken glass plate image 006SG301A as the second pseudo-reaction is different. Furthermore, in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 21 and 22, the greater the number of pseudo-continuous effects executed during variable display, the higher the rate at which the variable display result becomes a jackpot (which is controlled by the jackpot game state). The ratio is set to be high. In other words, in the pseudo-continuous performance in this embodiment, the rate at which the jackpot game state is controlled (jackpot expectation level) is determined by the color of the fragments of the glass plate image 006SG301A in the breaking performance executed as a part of the pseudo-continuous performance. It is now possible to make suggestions to people.

The reach-suggesting performance is a performance that suggests the establishment of a reach during variable display, in which a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and a glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301. This is an effect in which a reach may be established by executing a breaking effect in which the glass plate image 006SG301A that is displayed instead breaks. The reach suggestion effect is executed in a successful pattern in which a crack occurs in the glass plate image 006SG301 due to the action of the character, and a reach is established when the entire glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301 breaks. There are two cases: a failure pattern in which the glass plate image 006SG301A is not displayed (the glass plate image 006SG301A is not broken) even though a crack has occurred due to the action of the character, and a reach is not established. be.

The weak development effect is a glass plate image 006SG301 whose transmittance is less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 after the normal reach reach effect, and a glass plate image that is displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301. By executing a cracking effect in which 006SG301A cracks, if the gaming state is in the normal state, the player is notified of the transition to the reach effect of Super Reach α, and the gaming state is in the time-saving state or the variable probability state. If so, this is a performance that notifies the player of the transition to the super reach γ reach performance. The weak development effect is also a effect in which the entire glass plate image 006SG301A displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301 breaks without any cracks occurring due to the action of the character.

In the strong development performance A, when the gaming state is the normal state, after the reach performance of super reach α, a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and the corresponding This is an effect that notifies the shift to the reach effect of super reach β by executing a cracking effect in which the glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, breaks according to the movement of the movable body 32. If the state is a time saving state or a variable probability state, after the normal reach reach effect, a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 and is replaced with the glass plate image 006SG301. This is an effect that notifies the transition to the reach effect of the super reach δ by executing a crack effect in which the glass plate image 006SG301A that is displayed breaks according to the movement of the movable body 32.

The strong development effect B is also a effect in which a crack occurs without any action of the character, and the entire glass plate image 006SG301A displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301 breaks. During the reach effect of Super Reach α, the glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and the glass plate image 006SG301A that is displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301 is broken. By executing the cracking effect, this is an effect that notifies the transition to the reach effect of super reach β, and the glass plate image 006SG301 can be replaced without cracking regardless of the movement of the movable body 32 or the action of the character. This is an effect in which the entire displayed glass plate image 006SG301A breaks.

The cut-in performance is an operation promotion performance in which an operation promotion image is displayed at a predetermined position of the display area of the image display device 5 (for example, in the center of the display area) to prompt the player to operate the push button 31B. Thereafter, in response to the operation of the push button 31B, a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and a glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301. This is a performance in which a cracking effect is performed, and the entire glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, breaks without any cracks occurring regardless of the movement of the movable body or the action of the character. . In addition, in the cut-in effect, different cut-in images are displayed depending on the effect pattern from the time the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken, and the rate at which the jackpot game state is controlled varies depending on the displayed cut-in image (display This is an effect that suggests the rate (jackpot expectation level) of being controlled to a jackpot gaming state by the cut-in image that is displayed.

The result notification performance is an operation promotion performance in which an operation promotion image is displayed at a predetermined position of the display area of the image display device 5 (for example, in the center of the display area) to urge the player to operate the push button 31B. Thereafter, in response to the operation of the push button 31B, a glass plate image 006SG301 with a transmittance of less than 100% is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and a glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301. This is a performance that may notify that the game will be controlled to a jackpot game state by executing the cracking performance. In addition, the result notification performance is a success pattern that notifies that the entire glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, breaks after a crack occurs due to the operation of the movable body, and that the state is controlled to be a jackpot game state. In the case where the movable body does not operate and cracks do not occur in the glass plate image 006SG301, and the glass plate image 006SG301A is not displayed (the glass plate image 006SG301A does not crack), the jackpot game state is not controlled. That is, there are cases where the execution is performed using a failure pattern that notifies the variable display result that it is a failure. In addition, the result notification performance of this embodiment is a variable display of PA1-6 and PB1-5, which are exceptionally non-reach jackpot or non-reach variation patterns when the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state. (See FIG. 47).

(Production timing for each variation pattern)
Next, the rough execution timing and execution period for each variation pattern of each effect in this embodiment will be explained. First, to explain the variable display when the gaming state is the normal state, as shown in FIG. can be executed individually from the start timing of the variable display in the order of the first continuous cracking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, and the reach suggestion effect, without overlapping the effect periods.

As shown in FIG. 44(B), when the variable display is executed in PA1-2 and PA1-3, which are the variable patterns of shortened and non-reach, the first continuous cracking effect is executed from the start timing of the variable display. It is executable.

As shown in FIG. 44(C), when the variable display is executed in PA2-1 and PB1-1, which are the fluctuation patterns of normal reach jackpot and normal reach, the lines are announced after a while from the start of the variable display. Performance, background change performance A, reach suggestion performance, and normal reach reach performance can be executed individually in this order without overlapping performance periods.

As shown in FIG. 44(D), when variable display is executed in PA2-2 and PB1-2, which are fluctuation patterns of super reach α jackpot and super reach α, 2 consecutive cracking effects, background change effect B, first pseudo continuous effect, normal reach effect, weak development effect, and super reach α reach effect can be performed individually without overlapping production periods. . In addition, during the execution period of the reach effect of the super reach α, the result notification effect is executed in overlap with the reach effect of the super reach α.

As shown in FIG. 45(A), when the variable display is executed in PA2-3 and PB1-3, which are the fluctuation patterns of super reach β jackpot and super reach β deviation, from the start timing of the variable display, 2 consecutive cracking effects, dialogue preview effects, background change effects A, reach suggestion effects, normal reach effects, weak development effects, super reach α reach effects, strong development effects A, and super reach β reach effects in this order. can be executed individually without duplication. In addition, during the execution period of the reach effect of the super reach β, the cut-in effect and the result notification effect are individually executed overlapping with the reach effect of the super reach β.

In particular, the characters displayed in the background change effect A start to be displayed after the display of the lines in the line preview effect (display of the broken area of the display area of the image display device 5) becomes hidden. To prevent a decrease in the performance effect of each cracking effect due to the player's attention being dispersed to a plurality of cracking effects, since a new cracking effect will not occur in a place where a cracking effect has already occurred. I can do it.

As shown in FIG. 45(B), when the variable display is executed in PA2-4 and PB1-4, which are fluctuation patterns of super reach β jackpot and super reach β deviation, from the start timing of the variable display, 2 consecutive cracking effects, background change effect B, 1st pseudo continuous effect, 2nd pseudo continuous effect, normal reach reach effect, weak development effect, super reach α reach effect, strong development effect B, super reach β reach Each performance can be executed individually in the order of performance without overlapping performance periods. In addition, during the execution period of the reach effect of the super reach β, the cut-in effect and the result notification effect are individually executed overlapping with the reach effect of the super reach β.

Note that in this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 44 to 46, a variable display in which background change effect B is executed and a variable display in which dialogue preview effect is executed are different. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the background change effect B and dialogue preview effect may be effects that can be executed during the same variable display. Furthermore, in this case, when background change effect B and dialogue preview effect are executable during the same variable display, if it is decided to execute background change effect B, background change effect B and The execution periods of the dialogue preview performances may be set so as not to overlap. By doing this, for example, by executing the cracking effect as a dialogue preview effect while a crack is occurring as the background change effect B, the player who has executed the cracking effect as the background change effect B. In other words, it is possible to prevent the player from being misidentified when the background image changes.

Next, variable display when the gaming state is a time saving state or a variable probability state will be explained. As shown in FIG. 46(A) and FIG. 46(B), when a variable display is executed in PA1-5, which is a fluctuation pattern of non-reach out, there is a fluctuation pattern of non-reach, out of reach or non-reach jackpot. When it is decided to execute the continuous breaking effect targeting PA1-6 and PB1-5, the first continuous breaking effect can be executed from the start timing of the variable display, and the fluctuation pattern of the super reach δ jackpot When it is decided to execute the background change effect as a prefetch for PB1-7, the background change effect A can be executed from the start timing of the variable display.

In addition, targeting the variable display of PB1-5, which is a variable pattern of non-reach jackpot, as a pre-reading preview effect, an effect is performed in which a crack gradually widens in the display area of the image display device 5 from the variable display before the variable display. However, it may also be possible to perform a performance (so-called immediate win performance, special continuous crack performance) in which a breaking performance is executed and a jackpot symbol is displayed at the start of the variable display of PB1-5. Incidentally, since this performance is an instant hit performance, the moving speed of the fragments displayed as a breaking performance may be made faster than the moving speed of the fragments displayed as other breaking performances.

As shown in FIG. 46(C) and FIG. 46(D), when a variable display is executed in PA1-6, which is a non-reach variation pattern, the non-reach variation pattern is a non-reach variation pattern or a non-reach jackpot. When it is decided to execute the continuous cracking effect targeting PA1-6 and PB1-5, the first continuous breaking effect can be executed twice individually from the start timing of the variable display, and the super reach δ When it is decided to execute the background change effect as a prefetch for PB1-7, which is the variable pattern of the jackpot, the background change effect A can be executed from the start timing of the variable display.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 47(A), regarding the case where variable display is executed in PA1-6, which is a non-reach variation pattern, when it is subject to continuous cracking effect and the variation pattern of super reach δ jackpot When the execution of the background change effect is not decided as a look-ahead for PB1-7, and when the variable display is executed at PB1-5, which is a variable pattern of non-reach jackpot, After the first continuous crack performance is individually performed three times from the start timing, a result notification performance is further performed.

As shown in FIG. 47(B), when a variable display is executed in PA2-5, which is a variation pattern outside of the normal reach, the production except for the variable display of decorative symbols from the start timing of the variable display to the reach timing is It is not executed, and only the normal reach effect is executed from the reach timing.

As shown in FIG. 47(C), when the variable display is executed in PA2-6 and PB1-6, which are the fluctuation patterns of super reach γ jackpot or super reach γ, the reach is from the start timing of the variable display. The effects other than the variable display of decorative symbols are not executed until the reach timing, and from the reach timing, the normal reach effect, weak development effect, and super reach γ reach effect can be executed individually without overlapping production periods. There is. In addition, during the execution period of the super reach γ reach effect, the result notification effect is executed overlapping with the super reach γ reach effect.

As shown in FIG. 47(D), when the variable display is executed in PA2-7 and PB1-7, which are fluctuation patterns of super reach δ jackpot or super reach δ off, reach from the start timing of the variable display. Background change effect A can be executed during the period up to the timing. Furthermore, from the reach timing, the reach performance of normal reach, the strong development performance A, and the reach performance of super reach δ can be performed individually in this order without overlapping performance periods. In addition, during the execution period of the reach performance of the super reach δ, the cut-in performance and the result notification performance are individually executed overlapping with the reach performance of the super reach δ.

(Flow of production in Super Reach α)
Next, the flow of performance in super reach α will be explained based on FIGS. 48 to 50. FIG. 48 is a diagram showing the flow of performance in super reach α. FIG. 49 is a diagram showing the flow of performance in super reach α. FIG. 50 is a diagram showing the flow of performance in super reach α.

As shown in FIG. 48 (A1), in the normal state (low probability low base state), when variable display of symbols based on the variation pattern of super reach α is started, the first background image (for example, An image representing a daytime city scene) is displayed, and a variable display of decorative patterns is executed in each of the decorative pattern display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R. When a predetermined period of time has elapsed since the start of the variable display, the second continuous crack effect is started. Specifically, when the second continuous crack effect is started, a crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed, and a crack is displayed in a part of the crack precursor image, so that the crack precursor image changes to a cracked state. After this is displayed (see FIG. 48 (A2)), a crack effect is performed in which a part of the crack target image that replaces the crack precursor image is broken and a plurality of fragment images are scattered. Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. After that, a character image (object image) is displayed in the partially cracked area (specific range) in the crack target image that replaces the crack precursor image, and the variable display result may become a jackpot depending on the type of displayed character image. It is suggested (see FIG. 48 (A3)). After the second continuous crack effect ends, the variable display is performed again.

When a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the end of the second continuous breaking performance, a dialogue preview performance is started. Specifically, an operation promotion image that promotes the operation of the push button 31B is displayed at a predetermined timing after the dialogue preview effect is started (see FIG. 48 (A4)). The operation promotion image is composed of a button image imitating the push button 31B, a character image "Press!!", an indicator image indicating the operation validity period, and an effect image.

Next, when the push button 31B is operated, or when the effective period of operation ends without the push button 31B being operated, a crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed, and a part of the crack precursor image is displayed. After the crack precursor image is displayed in a cracked manner (see FIG. 48 (A5)), a part of the crack target image that replaces the crack precursor image is cracked, and multiple fragment images are scattered. A cracking effect is performed. Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. After that, a text image "Chance!?" will be displayed in the partially cracked area (specific range) of the crack target image that replaces the crack precursor image, and the variable display result may become a jackpot depending on the content of the displayed text image. (See Figure 48 (A6)). After the dialogue preview performance ends, the variable display is performed again.

When a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the end of the dialogue preview performance, background change performance A is started. Specifically, after the effect image is displayed in the center of the display screen (see FIG. 48 (A7)), if the appearance of a character has been determined, a character image (object image) is displayed (see FIG. 48 (A7)). (See A8). Next, a crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed in response to the action of the character image (for example, a kicking motion of the character), and a crack is displayed in a part of the crack precursor image, causing the crack precursor image to become cracked. After the image is displayed in this manner (see FIG. 48 (A9)), the entire area of the crack target image that replaces the crack precursor image is cracked, and a crack effect is performed in which a plurality of fragment images are scattered (see FIG. 48 (A10)). reference). Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the whiteout image increases, a second background image different from the first background image (for example, a special zone image representing a wilderness landscape) is displayed as a background image (Fig. 48 (A11 )reference). After the background change effect A ends, variable display is performed again.

When a predetermined period of time has passed after the background change effect A ends, the reach suggestion effect is started. Specifically, a decorative pattern is temporarily stopped and displayed in the left decorative pattern display area 5L, and a character image (object image) is displayed in the center of the display screen (see FIG. 48 (A12)). Next, a crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed according to the action of the character image (for example, the character hits the area corresponding to the left decorative pattern display area 5L with a gavel), and a crack precursor image is displayed on the left side of the crack precursor image. After the crack precursor image is displayed in the first crack mode (see FIG. 48 (A13)), the character image moves (for example, the character uses a gavel in the area corresponding to the right decorative symbol display area 5R). The crack precursor image changes from the first crack mode to the second crack mode as a result of the crack being displayed on the right side of the crack precursor image (see FIG. 48 (A14)), and furthermore, the character image (For example, the action of the character hitting the area corresponding to the center ornament display area 5C with a gavel) (as shown in FIG. 48 (A15), if a crack has been determined, a crack target is displayed instead of the crack precursor image). A cracking effect is performed in which the entire area of the image is broken and a plurality of fragment images are scattered (see FIG. 48 (A16)).

Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the white-out image increases, decorative symbols with the same numbers are temporarily stopped and displayed in the left and right decorative symbol display areas 5L and 5R, and the N reach effect is started.

When a predetermined period of time has passed since the start of the N reach performance, the weak development performance is started. Specifically, after a character image (object image) is displayed in the center of the display screen (see FIG. 48 (A17)), the character image moves (for example, the character moves toward the front of the display screen and touches the glass plate). A crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed in response to the punching action (punching action) (see Figure 49 (A18)), and a crack is displayed instead of the crack precursor image without a crack being displayed in a part of the crack precursor image. A cracking effect is performed in which the entire area of the target image is broken and a plurality of fragment images are scattered (see FIG. 49 (A19)). Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the whiteout image increases, weak S reach performance A (for example, a bowling showdown between an ally character and an enemy character) is started (see (A20) to (A22) in FIG. 49).

When a predetermined period of time has passed since the start of the weak S reach performance, the strong development performance A is started. Specifically, after the development symbol with the word "Development" displayed in the middle decoration symbol display area 5C is temporarily stopped and displayed (see FIG. 49 (A23)), the movement of the movable body 32 (for example, the movement of the movable body 32 A crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed according to the movement of the glass falling from the origin position at the top of the display screen to a production position that overlaps with the approximate center position of the display screen, and a crack is displayed in a part of the crack precursor image. Instead, the entire area of the crack target image instead of the crack precursor image is cracked, and a crack effect is performed in which a plurality of fragment images are scattered (see FIG. 49 (A24)). Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the whiteout image increases, a reach title image is displayed, and a strong S reach effect (for example, a battle between an ally character and an enemy character) starts (Fig. 49 (A25) to (A27) )reference).

When a predetermined period of time has elapsed since the start of the strong S reach effect, the cut-in effect is started. Specifically, an operation promotion image that promotes the operation of the push button 31B is displayed at a predetermined timing after the start of the strong S reach effect (see FIG. 49 (A28)). Next, when the push button 31B is operated, or when the effective period of operation ends without the push button 31B being operated, a crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed, and a part of the crack precursor image is displayed. A crack effect is performed in which the entire area of the crack target image instead of the crack precursor image is cracked without being displayed, and a plurality of fragment images are scattered. Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. After that, the text image "Heat!!" is displayed in the cracked area (specific range), and the content of the displayed text image suggests that the variable display result may be a jackpot (see Figure 49 (A29)) ). After the cut-in effect ends, the strong S reach effect is executed again.

When a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the end of the cut-in effect, the result notification effect is started. Specifically, first, an image of the ally character delivering the final blow is displayed (see FIG. 50 (A30)), and then the ally character's movements are displayed in slow motion and the image fades out (FIG. 50). (See A31)).

If the variable display result is a jackpot display result, after an image of an ally character's attack hitting an enemy character is displayed (see FIG. 50 (A32)), the movement of the movable body 32 (for example, the movable body 32 moves on the display screen A crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed in response to the movement of falling from the upper origin position to a predetermined production position between the origin position and the production position, and a crack is displayed in a part of the crack precursor image. As a result, the crack precursor image is displayed in a cracked manner (for example, a manner in which the crack appears downward from the movable body 32), and a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed across the entire display screen (FIG. 50). (See A33)).

Next, in response to the movement of the movable body (for example, a return-to-origin operation in which the movable body 32 rises from a predetermined presentation position above the display screen to the origin position), the entire area of the crack target image that replaces the crack precursor image is cracked, and a plurality of fragments are generated. A cracking effect in which the image scatters is performed (see FIG. 50 (A34)). Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the white-out image increases, the determined decorative symbols of the jackpot combination are temporarily stopped and displayed in each decorative symbol display area 5L, 5C, and 5R, and it is announced that the ally character has won the battle of the enemy character. Ru. In addition, the background image is displayed as a fifth background image 006SG085 for the jackpot (e.g., a rainbow-like image), and the movable lamp 9d is lit in a predetermined luminescent color (e.g., rainbow) to produce a predetermined production effect. After a sound is output and it is announced that the jackpot game state is being controlled (see FIG. 50 (A35)), the background image returns to the first background image and the determined decorative symbols of the jackpot combination are stopped and displayed ( (See FIG. 50 (A36)).

On the other hand, if the variable display result is a missed display result, after the image of the enemy character's punch hitting the ally character is displayed (see FIG. 50 (A37)), the movable body 32 does not move and the crack precursor image ( A glass plate, etc.) is displayed, and a crack is displayed in a part of the crack precursor image, so that the crack precursor image is displayed in a cracked manner (for example, a crack appears in the center of the display screen), and the display screen A gray image (effect image) is displayed in the entire area (see FIG. 50 (A38)).

Next, after the white-out image (effect image) is displayed (see FIG. 50 (A39)), as the transmittance of the white-out image increases, the fixed decorative symbols of combinations that are not jackpots are displayed temporarily, and the ally It is reported that the character has lost the battle of the enemy character (FIG. 50 (A40)).Furthermore, after being notified that the jackpot game state is not controlled, the background image returns to the first background image and the combination that is not a jackpot is announced. The determined decorative pattern is stopped and displayed (see FIG. 50 (A41)).

(Flow of production in Super Reach β)
Next, the flow of performance in super reach β will be explained based on FIGS. 51 and 52. FIG. 51 is a diagram showing the flow of performance in super reach β. FIG. 52 is a diagram showing the flow of performance in super reach β.

As shown in FIG. 51 (B1), in the normal state (low probability low base state), when variable display of symbols based on the variation pattern of super reach β starts, the first background image is displayed as the background image. At the same time, variable display of decorative symbols is executed in each decorative symbol display area 5L, 5C, and 5R. When a predetermined period of time has elapsed since the start of the variable display, background change effect B is started. Specifically, when background change effect B is started, a crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed, and a crack display area consisting of cracks including a small crack area is displayed at the lower left of the crack precursor image. As a result, after the crack precursor image is displayed in a crack mode (see FIG. 51 (B2)), two crack display areas are displayed on the right side of the crack precursor image, so that the crack mode of the crack precursor image is changed in stages. (see FIG. 51 (B3)), and if a crack is determined, the entire area of the crack target image instead of the crack precursor image is cracked, and a crack effect is performed in which a plurality of fragment images are scattered. (See Figure 51 (B4)). Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the white-out image increases, a second background image different from the first background image is displayed as the background image (see FIG. 51 (B5)).

After the background change effect A is finished, the variable display is executed again, and after the decorative pattern is temporarily stopped and displayed in the left decorative pattern display area 5L (see FIG. 51 (B6)), in the right decorative pattern display area 5R, By temporarily stopping and displaying the decorative pattern having the same number as the temporarily displayed decorative pattern in the left decorative pattern display area 5L, the variable display mode becomes the ready-to-reach mode (see FIG. 51 (B7)).

When a predetermined period of time has passed after the background change effect B ends, a pseudo continuous effect is started. Specifically, in the middle decoration pattern display area 5C, the pseudo-continuous pattern on which the characters "NEXT" indicating that the re-variable display is started is displayed at a reduced speed before the stop display position (Fig. 51 ( (See B8).

Next, after the pseudo continuous pattern is temporarily stopped and displayed at the stop display position in the center decoration pattern display area 5C (see FIG. 51 (B9)), a crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed, and one of the crack precursor images is displayed. After the crack precursor image is displayed in the form of a crack (see FIG. 51 (B10)), the movement of the movable body 32 (for example, the movement of the movable body 32 from the origin position above the display screen) In response to the motion of falling to a presentation position that overlaps the approximate center position of the screen), the entire area of the crack target image that replaces the crack precursor image is cracked, and a crack effect is executed in which a plurality of fragment images are scattered (Fig. 51 (See (B11)). Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the white-out image increases, a character image such as "x2" indicating the number of re-variable displays is displayed, and then variable display resumes (see Figure 51 (B12) to (B13)) .

In addition, in the case of a variable display in which a pseudo-continuation notice is not executed, the pseudo-continuation pattern passes through the stop display position in the center decoration pattern display area 5C, and the decoration symbol temporarily stopped and displayed in the left and right decoration pattern display areas 5L and 5R. The decorative pattern with the number one larger than that is displayed in a stopped state, and the variable display result of the error is displayed (see FIG. 51 (B9A)).

After the variable display of the decorative symbols is resumed, in the case of a pseudo-continuous performance of a triple pattern, a pseudo-continuous pattern on which the characters "NEXT" indicating the start of the pseudo-continuous performance are displayed in the center decoration pattern display area 5C is displayed. Deceleration is displayed before the stop display position (see FIG. 51 (B14)). After the pseudo continuous pattern is temporarily stopped and displayed at the stop display position in the center decoration pattern display area 5C (see FIG. 51 (B15)), a crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed, and a part of the crack precursor image is displayed. After the crack precursor image is displayed in the form of a crack (see FIG. 51 (B16)), the movable body 32 moves (for example, when the movable body 32 moves from the origin position above the display screen to In response to the motion of falling to a production position that overlaps the approximately central position, the entire area of the crack target image that replaces the crack precursor image is cracked, and a crack production is performed in which a plurality of fragment images are scattered (FIG. 51 (B17) )reference). Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the white-out image increases, a character image such as "x3" indicating the number of re-variable displays is displayed, and then variable display resumes (see Figure 52 (B18) to (B19)) .

After the variable display is resumed for the second time in the case of a pseudo-continuous presentation of a two-part pattern, or for the third time in the case of a pseudo-continuous presentation of a three-part pattern, the decorative pattern that was variably displayed in the left decorative pattern display area 5L is It is temporarily stopped and displayed (see FIG. 52 (B20)), and the decoration symbol with the same number as the decoration symbol temporarily stopped and displayed in the left decoration symbol display area 5L is temporarily stopped and displayed in the right decoration symbol display area 5R, and it becomes N reach ( (See FIG. 52 (B21)), the N reach effect is started.

When a predetermined period of time has passed since the start of the N reach performance, the weak development performance is started. Specifically, after a character image (object image) is displayed in the center of the display screen (see FIG. 52 (B22)), the character image moves (for example, the character moves toward the front of the display screen and touches the glass plate). A crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed in response to the punching action) (see Figure 52 (B23)), and a crack replaces the crack precursor image without a crack being displayed in a part of the crack precursor image. A crack effect is performed in which the entire area of the target image is broken and a plurality of fragment images are scattered (see FIG. 52 (B24)). Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the whiteout image increases, a weak S reach effect (for example, a bowling showdown between an ally character and an enemy character) is started (see (B25) to (B26) in FIG. 52).

When a predetermined period of time has passed since the start of the weak S reach performance, the strong development performance B is started. Specifically, when strong development effect B is started, a crack precursor image (glass plate, etc.) is displayed, and a crack is displayed in a part of the crack precursor image, so that the crack precursor image is displayed in the form of a crack. After being displayed (see FIG. 52 (B27)), a crack effect is performed in which the entire area of the crack target image, which replaces the crack precursor image, is cracked and a plurality of fragment images are scattered (see FIG. 52 (B28)). Note that a whiteout image (effect image) is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. As the transmittance of the white-out image increases, the development symbol with the word "Development" displayed in the inner decoration symbol display area 5C is temporarily stopped and displayed (see FIG. 52 (B29)), and then the reach title image is displayed. is displayed, and strong S reach effect B (for example, a battle between an ally character and an enemy character) is started (see FIG. 52 (B30)). Note that the strong S reach effect B is an S reach effect with higher expectations than the strong S reach effect A. Furthermore, since the strong S reach effect B is an S reach effect with a higher degree of expectation than the strong S reach effect A, the cut-in effect described later is more likely to be executed in the effect pattern Y. In other words, in the strong S reach effect B, the fragment image 006SG302 described later is more likely to be displayed than in the strong S reach effect A.

Strong S Reach Effect B is almost the same as Super Reach α's Strong S Reach Effect A, with the only difference being the type of enemy character, etc., so a detailed explanation of the flow until the end of the variable display will be omitted hereafter. .

(Examples of various effects)
Next, an example of the operation of the breaking effect in various effects that can be executed by the effect control CPU 120 will be explained based on FIGS. 53 to 69.

In addition, an example of the expression showing the display mode used in the following explanation will be explained.

"Fade-out display" is a display that increases the transmittance (transparency) of the displayed image as time passes, whereas "fade-in display" increases the transmittance (transparency) of the displayed image as time passes. This is a display that decreases the transparency (transparency).

"Animation display" is, for example, a dynamic display (video display) that gives movement by changing the visibility of at least a part of the image compared to the previous image. , the visibility can be changed by making at least one of the position, size, color, and transmittance of the displayed image different from the previous image. In other words, "animation display" includes not only displays that involve image displacement such as "moving display", "rotating display", "enlarging display", "reducing display", "frame-in display" and "frame-out display", but also " It also includes displays such as "fade-out display" and "fade-in display" that do not involve displacement of the image but change the display mode such as color tone. In this embodiment, the number of still images (number of frames) displayed in a one-second moving image is 30, that is, the frame rate is 30 FPS.

"Static display" is the opposite of animation display, and is a non-dynamic display (still image) that does not change the display mode at all by not changing the visibility of the image compared to the previous image. display).

As shown in FIGS. 53 to 69, when the gaming state is the low base state, the decorative symbols displayed in each decorative symbol display area 5L, 5C, and 5R (for the low base state) are circular numbers when viewed from the front. A pedestal, a numeric display section consisting of numbers "0" to "9" displayed on the front of the numeric pedestal section, and 10 types of characters corresponding to each number "0" to "9" on the numeric display section. (all characters are omitted) is displayed, a rectangular information pedestal in front view, and information about the character (for example, the character's name) displayed on the front of the information pedestal. It is composed of an information display section, and a substantially rectangular pedestal display section that is displayed so as to surround the number display section, character display section, and information display section (see FIG. 1, etc.).

Although a detailed explanation will not be provided, when the gaming state is in the high base state or in other production modes, decorative symbols whose display mode is different from the decorative symbols for the low base state described above are displayed in each decorative symbol display area. It may be possible to variably display 5L, 5C, and 5R. In addition, as a variable display mode of the decorative symbols for the low base state, a mode in which the decorative symbols are vertically scrolled from the top to the bottom of the display screen has been exemplified, but other variable display modes may also be used. The variable display mode may be different depending on the presentation mode.

In the display area 5S provided at the upper left of the image display device 5, the first pending storage number, the second pending storage number, and a small pattern (fourth pattern) corresponding to the decorative pattern are displayed. The small symbols are composed of numbers "0" to "9" displayed in each of the small symbol display areas 5SL, 5SC, and 5SR, and each number corresponds to a decorative symbol. In addition, in this embodiment, the numbers of the decorative pattern and the numbers of the small pattern correspond to each other, but the numbers of both patterns do not necessarily have to correspond. For example, the numbers of the small pattern correspond to the numbers of the small pattern. It may be a number from 1 to 5, which is smaller than the numbers from 0 to 9, or it may be a symbol or figure different from the numbers of the decorative design.

The special figure pending storage display area 5U provided at the bottom of the screen of the image display device 5 includes a first pending display 006SG101 (see FIG. 102) and a second pending display (not shown) corresponding to the variable display whose execution is pending. ) is displayed, and in the active display area 5F provided at the bottom of the screen, an active display 006SG103 corresponding to the variable display being executed is displayed. Incidentally, these first pending memory number, second pending memory number, small symbol, special symbol pending memory display area 5U, and active display area 5F are displayed in common in all production modes.

<First continuous cracking performance and second continuous cracking performance>
Details of the operation examples of the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous breaking effect will be explained based on FIGS. 53 and 54. FIG. 53 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of the first continuous crack effect. FIG. 54 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of the second continuous crack effect.

As shown in FIG. 53(A), when the gaming state is the normal state, a second When the continuous crack effect is started, a glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area above the first background image 006SG081, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed at a position slightly to the right of the approximate center of the glass plate image 006SG301. The glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner by displaying the cracks so as to spread radially from the glass plate image 006SG301. In addition, the decorative pattern displayed in the layer 2 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301 and the first background image 006SG081 displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area are not displayed when the glass plate image 006SG301 is not displayed. While it is displayed in the first visibility, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed in the second visibility, which is lower in visibility than the first visibility, so that the cracks are more noticeable. is displayed (see FIG. 53(B)). In addition, when the gaming state is the time saving state/variable probability state, the second continuous cracking effect starts after a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the variable display of decorative symbols is executed in each decorative symbol display area 5L, 5C, and 5R. Then, the glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area above the sixth background image which is the normal background image for the time saving state/probability variable state, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed as a crack precursor image. The glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner by displaying the cracks so as to spread radially from a position slightly to the right of the approximate center. In addition, the decorative pattern displayed in the layer 2 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301 and the sixth background image displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area are 1 visibility, while when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed at the 2nd visibility, which is lower than the 1st visibility, so that the crack aspect is displayed more conspicuously. be done.

Further, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the small fragment image 006SG302A is displayed to fall downward from the portion where the crack is displayed. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A may be displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area or in the layer 4 image drawing area.

Next, the glass plate image 006SG301 is hidden, and a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A, which was displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above the glass plate image 006SG301 instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, is broken ( The glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in a broken manner), and a cracking effect is performed in which a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period after the cracking effect is started (see FIG. 53(C)). The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. As the transmittance gradually increases over time, the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302 become visible (see FIG. 53(D)), and when the transmittance reaches 100%, the whiteout image becomes visible. The display of 006SG303 ends (see FIG. 53(E)).

Thereafter, the character image 006SG305 and background effect image 006SG314 displayed in the layer 3 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301A are displayed in the crack display area 006SG304 in the glass plate image 006SG301A until the display of the fragment image 006SG302 is finished. After being displayed (see FIG. 53(F)), the glass plate image 006SG301A, character image 006SG305, and background effect image 006SG314 are hidden (see FIG. 53(G)). Here, the background effect image 006SG314 when the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed is displayed in the second visibility in a predetermined range other than the crack display area 006SG304 in the glass plate image 006SG301A, and the crack display area 006SG304 (specific range) In this case, the first visibility is displayed with higher visibility than the second visibility. In other words, since the visibility is different between the unbroken area and the part visible through the broken area, it becomes easier to recognize that a part of the glass plate image 006SG301 is broken.

Next, as shown in FIG. 54, the second continuous cracking effect is almost the same as the first continuous breaking effect except for the different types of characters that appear, so a detailed explanation will be omitted here. do. In addition, in this embodiment, the example of the operation of the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous cracking effect was illustrated as being almost the same, but the example of the operation of the first continuous breaking effect and the second continuous cracking effect is May be different.

For example, in the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous cracking effect, the cracking pattern is a common cracking pattern D, and the manner in which the fragment image 006SG302 moves in the X-axis direction, Y-axis direction, and Z-axis direction is the same. Then, in Fig. 53(B), the crack is displayed on the right side, while in Fig. 54(B), the crack is displayed on the left side, so that when the crack starts, the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed. The position at which the display starts may be different. By doing so, it is possible to make a difference in how the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed between the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous breaking effect.

For example, an effect image that emphasizes the crack can be displayed in a portion corresponding to the crack displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301 (for example, a layer image drawing area higher than the glass plate image 006SG301), and the effect image Depending on the display mode, it may be suggested which of the first continuous breaking effect and the second continuous breaking effect is to be executed. Furthermore, the cracking patterns may be different between the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous cracking effect. In particular, regarding the second continuous crack effect, the amount of display of the fragment image 006SG302 may be increased, or the fragment image 006SG302 may be displayed in slow motion to increase the degree of attention to the variable display.

Furthermore, it is possible to output the character voice corresponding to the character image 006SG305 in the first continuous cracking effect and the character voice corresponding to the character image 006SG305 in the second continuous cracking effect, and both of them crack at the display timing of the whiteout image 006SG303. The character voice may be output together with the sound, the character voice may be output after the cracking sound is output at the display timing of the whiteout image 006SG303, or the output of the cracking sound may be limited. good.

<Speech preview production>
The details of the operation example of the dialogue preview performance will be explained based on FIG. 55. FIG. 55 is a diagram illustrating details of an example of the operation of the dialogue preview performance.

As shown in FIG. 55(A), when the dialogue preview effect is started while the variable display of decorative patterns is being executed in each decorative pattern display area 5L, 5C, and 5R, the higher level than the first background image 006SG081 The operation promotion image 006SG310 is displayed in the layer 8 image drawing area (see FIG. 55(B)).

Next, when the push button 31B is operated, or when the operation validity period ends without the push button 31B being operated, the operation promotion image 006SG310 is hidden and a layer higher than the first background image 006SG081 is displayed. A glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the 4-image drawing area, and cracks are displayed radially spreading from a position slightly to the right of the approximate center of the glass plate image 006SG301, indicating that the glass plate image 006SG301 is cracked. It is displayed in the following manner. In addition, the decorative pattern displayed in the layer 2 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301 and the first background image 006SG081 displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area are not displayed when the glass plate image 006SG301 is not displayed. While it is displayed in the first visibility, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed in the second visibility, which is lower in visibility than the first visibility, so that the cracks are more noticeable. is displayed (see FIG. 55(C)).

Further, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the small fragment image 006SG302A is displayed to fall downward from the portion where the crack is displayed. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A may be displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area or in the layer 4 image drawing area.

Next, the glass plate image 006SG301 is hidden, and a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A, which was displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above the glass plate image 006SG301 instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, is broken. A crack effect is performed in which a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started (see FIG. 55(D)). The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, it becomes possible to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A, the fragment image 006SG302, and the character image 006SG305 (see FIG. 55(E)), and the transmittance reaches 100%. The display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends (see FIG. 55(F)).

After that, in the crack display area 006SG304 of the glass plate image 006SG301A, until the display of the broken image 006SG302 is finished, the layer 3 image drawing area lower than the glass plate image 006SG301A displays the message ``Chance!'' which indicates the expectation of a jackpot! ?" character image 006SG306 and a serif background image 006SG087 serving as its background are displayed (see FIG. 55(F)). Here, the serif background image 006SG087 and character image 006SG306 displayed in the crack display area 006SG304 in the glass plate image 006SG301A are displayed with the first visibility, and the second visibility displayed in the area other than the crack display area 006SG304 in the glass plate image 006SG301 is 1 background image 006SG081 is displayed with a second visibility that is lower in visibility than the first visibility. In other words, since the visibility is different between the unbroken area and the part visible through the broken area, it becomes easier to recognize that a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken. Next, the glass plate image 006SG301A, the serif background image 006SG087, and the character image 006SG306 are hidden (see FIG. 55(H)).

In addition, in FIG. 55(C), for example, an effect image that emphasizes the crack is placed in a portion corresponding to the crack displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301 (for example, in a layer image drawing area above the glass plate image 006SG301). Depending on the display mode of the effect image, it may be suggested which of the dialogue character images 006SG306 such as "Chance!?", "Hot!", and "Super Hot!" will be displayed. In addition, the cracking pattern may be different depending on the type of serif character (such as the display amount of the fragment image 006SG302. Especially when displaying "Super Hot!", the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed in slow motion to increase the attention level). ), and while using a common crack pattern, the location of the crack (for example, the higher the expectation, the closer to the center) and the range of the crack (for example, the higher the expectation, the wider the crack). You can change it. Furthermore, character voices corresponding to the type of character image 006SG305 may be output, and both may be output with a cracking sound at the display timing of whiteout image 006SG303, or the crackling sound may be output at the display timing of whiteout image 006SG303. The character voice may be output after the output of the character voice is finished, or the output of the cracking sound may be limited.

<Background change effect A>
Details of the operation example of background change effect A will be explained based on FIGS. 56 and 57. FIG. 56 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of background change effect A. FIG. 57 is a diagram showing details of an operation example of background change effect A.

As shown in FIG. 56(A), when the gaming state is the normal state, the background change effect A starts when the variable display of decorative symbols is being executed in each decorative symbol display area 5L, 5C, and 5R. Then, the effect image 006SG320 is displayed in the layer 6 image drawing area above the first background image 006SG081, and after being gradually enlarged (see FIGS. 56(B) and (C)), the effect image 006SG320 fades out. The character image 006SG305 is displayed (see FIG. 56(D)). In addition, when the gaming state is the time saving state/variable probability state, if the background change effect A is started while the variable display of decorative symbols is being executed in each decorative symbol display area 5L, 5C, 5R, the time saving state Effect image 006SG320 is displayed in the layer 6 image drawing area above the 6th background image which is the normal background image for the state/probability change state, and after being gradually enlarged and displayed, effect image 006SG320 is faded out and character image 006SG305 is displayed. is displayed.

Note that the effect image 006SG320 displayed in FIG. 56(B) is an effect that stimulates whether or not the character image 006SG305 is displayed in FIG. 56(D), and in the case of a successful pattern, it is shown in FIG. In the case of a failure pattern, the transition does not proceed to FIG. 56C, and the effect image 006SG320 is displayed in a reduced size and then hidden, suggesting that the character image 006SG305 is not displayed.

Next, when the gaming state is the normal state, the glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area above the first background image 006SG081, and then the character image 006SG305 is displayed on the near side. After the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in the pre-crack mode, a crack is displayed to spread radially from a position slightly to the right of the approximate center of the glass plate image 006SG301 in response to the kicking motion towards the glass plate image 006SG301. (See FIG. 56(E)), the crack gradually spreads radially and changes into a cracked state (see FIG. 56(F)). Furthermore, the character image 006SG305 displayed in the layer 3 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301, the decorative pattern displayed in the layer 2 image drawing area, and the first background image 006SG081 displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area are , when the glass plate image 006SG301 is not displayed, it is displayed in the first visibility, while when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed in the second visibility, which is lower in visibility than the first visibility. By displaying, the crack aspect is displayed conspicuously. In addition, when the gaming state is the time saving state/variable probability state, after the glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area above the sixth background image, the character image 006SG305 is displayed. In response to the kicking motion toward the front side, cracks are displayed radially expanding from a position slightly to the right of the approximate center of the glass plate image 006SG301, so that the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a pre-crack mode. After that, the cracks gradually spread radially and change into a cracked appearance. In addition, the character image 006SG305 displayed in the layer 3 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301, the decorative pattern displayed in the layer 2 image drawing area, and the 6th background image displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area are: When the glass plate image 006SG301 is not displayed, it is displayed in the first visibility, while when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed in the second visibility, which is lower in visibility than the first visibility. As a result, the cracks are displayed more conspicuously.

Further, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the small fragment image 006SG302A is displayed to fall downward from the portion where the crack is displayed. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A may be displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area or in the layer 4 image drawing area.

Next, when the gaming state is the normal state, the glass plate image 006SG301 is hidden and displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above the glass plate image 006SG301 instead of the glass plate image 006SG301. A crack effect is performed in which the entire area of the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started (see FIG. 56(G)). The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 and the second background image 006SG082 becomes higher (see FIGS. 56(H) and 57(I)). Then, after the transmittance reaches 100% and the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends (see FIG. 57(J)), the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends (see FIG. 57(K)). In this way, by executing the crack effect when the background image changes from the first background image 006SG081 to the second background image 006SG082, it is possible to naturally notice that the first background image 006SG081 has changed to the second background image 006SG082. Therefore, background changes can be shown without any discomfort. In addition, when the gaming state is the time saving state/variable probability state, the glass plate image 006SG301 is hidden and is replaced by the layer 5 image drawing area higher than the glass plate image 006SG301. A crack effect is performed in which the entire area of the displayed glass plate image 006SG301A is broken and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Then, as the transmittance gradually increases with the passage of time, the visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 and the seventh background image, which is a chance background image for the time saving state/probability change state, becomes higher. Then, after the transmittance reaches 100% and the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends, the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends. In this way, by executing the cracking effect when the background image changes from the sixth background image to the seventh background image, it is possible to make it look natural that the sixth background image has changed to the seventh background image. Therefore, background changes can be made to look natural.

Further, for example, it is possible to display a third background image (not shown) which is more advantageous when displayed as a background image than the second background image 006SG082, and depending on the movement mode (actions such as punching and kicking) of the character image 006SG305. It may be possible to suggest whether the second background image 006SG082 or the third background image is displayed. Further, by making it possible to display a character other than the character image 006SG305, it may be possible to suggest whether the second background image 006SG082 or the third background image is displayed.

<Background change effect B>
The details of the operation example of background change effect B will be explained based on FIG. 58. FIG. 58 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of background change effect B.

As shown in FIG. 58(A), when background change effect B is started while variable display of decorative patterns is being executed in each decorative pattern display area 5L, 5C, and 5R, the first background image 006SG081 A glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the upper layer 4 image drawing area, and a crack display area 006SG324 consisting of cracks including small crack areas is displayed at the lower left position of the glass plate image 006SG301. As a result, the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner (see FIG. 58(B)). Thereafter, two new crack display areas 006SG324 are displayed at the upper right position of the crack display area 006SG324, and the crack aspect of the glass plate image 006SG301 changes in stages (see FIG. 58(C)). ).

In this way, the decorative pattern displayed in the layer 2 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301 and the first background image 006SG081 displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area are created by glass plate image 006SG301 in a cracked manner. When it is not displayed, it is displayed in the first visibility, while when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, it is displayed in the second visibility, which is lower in visibility than the first visibility. As a result, the crack appearance is displayed conspicuously.

Further, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the small fragment image 006SG302A is displayed to fall downward from the portion where the crack is displayed. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A may be displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area or in the layer 4 image drawing area.

Furthermore, as shown in the enlarged view in FIG. 58(C), the first background image 006SG081 displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301 is While being displayed using the second visibility, each crack display area 006SG324 is displayed using the first visibility, which is higher in visibility than the second visibility. In other words, the visibility is different between the unbroken area and the part visible through the broken area, making it easier to recognize that a part of the glass plate image 006SG301 is cracked.

Next, the glass plate image 006SG301 is hidden, and the entire area of the glass plate image 006SG301A, which was displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above the glass plate image 006SG301 instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, is broken and the layer A crack effect is performed in which a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the 5-image drawing area. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period after the cracking effect is started (see FIG. 58(D)). The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 and the second background image 006SG082 becomes higher (see FIG. 58(E)). Then, after the transmittance reaches 100% and the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends (see FIG. 58(F)), the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends (see FIG. 58(G)). In this way, by executing the crack effect when the background image changes from the first background image 006SG081 to the second background image 006SG082, it is possible to naturally notice that the first background image 006SG081 has changed to the second background image 006SG082. Therefore, background changes can be shown without any discomfort.

For example, an effect image that emphasizes the crack can be displayed in a portion corresponding to the crack displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301 (for example, a layer image drawing area higher than the glass plate image 006SG301), and the effect image The expected level of development of the production may be suggested by the display mode. Specifically, when the display color of the effect image is blue, it is easy to finish at the first stage (see FIG. 58(B)), and when the display color of the effect image is green, it is easy to finish at the second stage (see FIG. 58(C)). (see), and in the case of red, it is preferable that it is most likely to develop into a cracking effect compared to blue or green. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 75(B), when failure pattern 1 ends at the first stage, the transmittance gradually increases and becomes invisible (fade-out display) after 1500 ms have elapsed from the start of background change effect B. As shown in FIG. 75(C), when the failure pattern 2 ends at the second stage, the transmittance may gradually increase and become hidden after 3000 ms have elapsed from the start of the background change effect B.

In addition, while background change effect B is being executed, change effects for active display and pending display, which are images displayed in the layer image drawing area higher than glass plate image 006SG301, are restricted, while glass plate image 006SG301 It may also be possible not to limit the effect using images (for example, mini-character images, etc.) displayed in the layer image drawing area lower than the layer image drawing area. By doing so, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the effect of the cracking effect.

<Pseudo continuous performance>
The details of the operation example of the pseudo-continuous effect will be explained based on FIG. 59. FIG. 59 is a diagram illustrating details of a partial operation example of the pseudo-continuous effect.

As shown in FIG. 59(A), after the pseudo-continuous effect has started, the pseudo-continuous pattern with the characters "NEXT" displayed indicating that the re-variable display is to be started is displayed in the center decoration pattern display area 5C. When temporarily stopped and displayed at the stop display position, the glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area above the second background image 006SG082, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed from the approximate center position of the glass plate image 006SG301. By displaying the cracks so as to spread radially, the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner. In addition, the decorative designs displayed in the layer 2 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301 and the second background image 006SG082 displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area are not displayed when the glass plate image 006SG301 is not displayed. While it is displayed in the first visibility, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed in the second visibility, which is lower in visibility than the first visibility, so that the cracks are more noticeable. is displayed (see FIG. 59(B)).

Further, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the small fragment image 006SG302A is displayed as falling downward from the portion where the crack is displayed, and then goes out of frame and becomes hidden. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A may be displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area or in the layer 4 image drawing area.

After the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the motion of the movable body 32 to fall from the origin position to the production position is started, and in response to this motion, a whiteout image is created at approximately the center position in the layer 7 image drawing area. After 006SG303 is displayed (see FIG. 59(C)), the whiteout image 006SG303 spreads to the surrounding area, and the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the start of the cracking effect (see FIG. 59(C)). (See D). In addition, along with the display of the whiteout image 006SG303, the glass plate image 006SG301 is hidden, and a glass plate image is displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above the glass plate image 006SG301 instead of the glass plate image 006SG301. A crack effect is performed in which the entire area of 006SG301A is cracked and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area.

Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image that is displayed with a transmittance of 0% (opaque) in the layer 7 image drawing area, and is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area at the beginning of display. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 and the second background image 006SG082 becomes higher (see FIG. 59(E)). When the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends with the transmittance reaching 100%, it is emphasized that the movable body 32 has moved to the production position in the layer 6 image drawing area which is lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. The motion effect image 006SG321 is displayed to spread from the movable body 32 to the surrounding area, and the background effect image 006SG322 is also displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area to spread from the movable body 32 to the surrounding area (FIG. 59(F) ), see (G)).

Next, after the whiteout image 006SG303 has been displayed, the movable body 32 starts moving from the production position to the origin position while the fragment image 006SG302 is being displayed (see FIG. 59(G)). After all the fragment images 006SG302 are hidden, they are stopped at the presentation position, and the return operation to the origin position is completed (see FIG. 59(H)).

Note that even if the operation of returning the movable body 32 from the production position to the origin position to the origin position is started after the display of the fragment image 006SG302 is finished and then after the display of the background effect image 006SG322 is finished. good.

In addition, in this embodiment, the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed when the pseudo-continuous pattern is temporarily stopped and displayed in the pseudo-continuous display and variable display is started again, but the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in the first variable display The display color of the plate image 006SG301 is blue, the display color of the glass plate image 006SG301 displayed in the second variable display is green, and the display color of the glass plate image 006SG301 displayed in the third variable display is red. The display mode of the glass plate image 006SG301 may be made different. Further, for example, the crack pattern of the glass plate image 006SG301 may be made to be different, such as the crack pattern of the glass plate image 006SG301 gradually becoming larger each time variable display is performed again.

Further, in this case, although the display color of the glass plate image 006SG301 differs depending on the number of times of re-variable display, it is preferable that the crack pattern is the same. In this way, by making the cracking pattern common in gaming machines that perform various breaking effects, it is possible to accurately indicate that a pseudo continuous effect has been executed. In addition, while the operation pattern of the movable body 32 is common for the first re-variable display, the second re-variable display, and the third re-variable display, for example, the first re-variable display and the second re-variable display The display mode of the crack pattern may be made different between the variable display and the third re-variable display, such as the size of the fragment image 006SG302 being different, the number of displayed fragment images 006SG302 being different, and the moving speed of the fragment image 006SG302 being different. .

<Reach suggestion production>
Details of an example of the operation of the reach suggestion effect will be explained based on FIGS. 60 and 61. FIG. 60 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of the reach suggestion effect. FIG. 61 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of the reach suggestion effect.

As shown in FIG. 60(A), when the reach suggestion effect is started while variable display of decorative symbols is being executed in each decorative symbol display area 5L, 5C, and 5R, the left ornamental symbol display area 5L is displayed as a decorative symbol. After the symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed (see FIG. 60(B)), the character image 006SG305 is displayed in the center of the display screen (see FIG. 60(C)). Next, a glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area above the second background image 006SG082, and the character image 006SG305 hits the area corresponding to the left decorative pattern display area 5L with a gavel. Accordingly, a crack is displayed on the left side of the glass plate image 006SG301, so that the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in the first crack mode, and an operation is performed in the layer 6 image drawing area higher than the glass plate image 006SG301. Effect image 006SG323 is displayed (see FIG. 60(D)).

Next, in response to the action of the character image 006SG305 hitting the area corresponding to the right decorative pattern display area 5R with a gavel, a crack is displayed on the right side of the glass plate image 006SG301, thereby changing the glass plate image 006SG301 into the second crack mode. At the same time, the motion effect image 006SG323 is displayed in the layer 6 image drawing area above the glass plate image 006SG301 (see FIG. 60(E)).

Furthermore, in response to the action of the character image 006SG305 hitting the area corresponding to the centerpiece design display area 5C with a gavel (see FIG. 60(F)), the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed at approximately the center position in the layer 7 image drawing area. After that (see FIG. 60(G)), the whiteout image 006SG303 spreads to the surrounding area, and the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time (see FIG. 60(H)).

Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 60(D) and (E), when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the small fragment image 006SG302A falls downward from the part where the crack is displayed. After being displayed, it will frame out and disappear. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A may be displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area or in the layer 4 image drawing area.

Further, as shown in FIG. 60(H), at the timing when the white-out image 006SG303 is displayed in the entire display screen, the glass plate image 006SG301 is hidden, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is replaced with the glass plate image 006SG301. A crack effect is performed in which the entire area of the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above 006SG301 is broken, and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area. be done. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Next, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the visibility of the decorative pattern, the fragment image 006SG302, and the second background image 006SG082 becomes higher (see FIG. 61(I)). Then, the display of the white-out image 006SG303 ends when the transmittance reaches 100%, and the ornamental symbols temporarily stopped and displayed in the left and right ornamental symbol display areas 5L and 5R are enlarged and highlighted (see FIG. 61). J)), the decorative pattern is displayed in a reduced size, and the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends (see FIG. 61(K)).

In addition, in various performances accompanied by a cracking effect in this embodiment, for example, as shown in the flow of FIGS. After the display is resolved and hidden, the performance progresses (for example, progresses from a reach-suggesting performance with a cracking performance to a reach-suggesting performance without a cracking performance).

For example, an effect image that emphasizes the crack can be displayed in a portion corresponding to the crack displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301 (for example, a layer image drawing area higher than the glass plate image 006SG301), and the effect image The expected degree of reach development may be suggested by the display mode. Specifically, when there are blue and red display modes for the effect image, it is sufficient that the reach is more likely to be achieved when the effect image is displayed in red than when it is displayed in blue.

In addition, in the case of a failure pattern, after the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed in response to the action of the character image 006SG305 hitting the area corresponding to the centerpiece design display area 5C with a gavel (see FIGS. 60(G) and (H)). , a disappointed character image 006SG305 is displayed in the area corresponding to the center decoration pattern display area 5C, and then the character image 006SG305 and the cracked glass plate image 006SG301 are hidden, and the missing pattern stops. The variable display ends.

<Weak development performance>
The details of the operation example of the weak development effect will be explained based on FIG. 62. FIG. 62 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of the weak development effect.

As shown in FIG. 62(A), regardless of whether the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state/variable probability state, the variable display of the decorative symbols in each decorative symbol display area 5L, 5C, and 5R is in the reach mode. When the weak development effect is started, the background effect image 006SG322 is displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area, and the character image 006SG305 is displayed at the approximate center of the layer 6 image drawing area above it. After (see FIG. 62(B)), after the punching character image 006SG305 is displayed, it is displayed in slow motion while being enlarged as if it is moving toward the front of the display screen (see FIG. 62(C)) . The decorative pattern display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R are moved to the upper right position of the display screen and displayed in a reduced size.

Next, when the gaming state is the normal state, the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above the normal reach background image, and then the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in a cracked manner. A crack effect is performed in which the entire area of the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started (see FIG. 62(D)). The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 and the character image 006SG305 becomes higher (see FIG. 62(E)). After the transmittance reaches 100% and the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends (see FIG. 62(F)), when the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed again (see FIG. 62(F)). 62(G)). Then, when a predetermined period of time has elapsed since the whiteout image 006SG303 was displayed, the weak S reach effect image 006SG088 is displayed, and the transition to the weak S reach effect occurs (see FIG. 62(H)). In addition, when the gaming state is the time saving state/variable probability state, after the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above the normal reach background image, the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in a cracked manner. A crack effect is performed in which the entire area of the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken without being displayed, and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 and the character image 006SG305 becomes higher. Then, after the transmittance reaches 100% and the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends, and when the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed again. Then, when a predetermined period of time has elapsed since the whiteout image 006SG303 was displayed, the weak S reach effect image 006SG088 is displayed, and the process shifts to the weak S reach effect. In addition, in FIGS. 71 and 84 described later, the display mode of the fragment image 006SG302 in the weak development effect is not transparent, but this is the final display mode of the fragment image 006SG302, and the display mode of the fragment image 006SG302 in the weak development effect is non-transparent. is displayed in a transparent mode (for example, transmittance of 70% or more) in FIGS. 90 (B1) to (B3), which will be described later, and then in FIGS. 90 (B4) and (B5). (for example, the transmittance is less than 10%). That is, at the first timing corresponding to FIG. 90 (B3), the fragment image 006SG302 can be viewed in a transparent manner, and at the second timing, corresponding to FIG. 90 (B4), the fragment image 006SG302 can be viewed in a non-transparent manner. can do.

In this way, by executing the cracking effect when the N reach effect develops into the weak S reach effect, it is possible to naturally show that the N reach effect image has changed to the weak S reach effect image 006SG088. Therefore, changes in the production can be shown without any discomfort.

<Strong development performance A>
The details of the operation example of strong development effect A will be explained based on FIG. 63. FIG. 63 is a diagram showing details of a part of the operation example of strong development effect A.

As shown in FIG. 63(A), in the weak S reach effect, the development symbol with the word "development" displayed is temporarily stopped, and when the strong development effect A is started, the movable body 32 moves from the origin position. The action of falling to the production position is started, and when this falling action is started, a whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed at approximately the center position in the layer 7 image drawing area, and the movable body 32 begins to fall (Fig. 63(B)). The whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the crack effect is started.

In addition, when the movable body 32 moves from the origin position to the performance position as a preliminary performance before the cracking performance, and the movable body 32 moves to the performance position, the layer 5 image drawing area higher than the weak S reach performance image 006SG088 , the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed, and the glass plate image 006SG301A is not displayed in a cracked manner, but the entire area of the glass plate image 006SG301A is cracked, and a plurality of pieces larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area. A cracking effect is performed in which the fragment image 006SG302 scatters (see FIG. 63(C)).

Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed with a transmittance of 0% (opaque) in the layer 7 image drawing area, and here, it is transparent until the movable body 32 moves from the origin position to the production position. Since the ratio remains at 0%, it becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in layers lower than the layer 7 image drawing area (see FIG. 63(C)). Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 becomes higher (see FIG. 63(D)). Next, when the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends with the transmittance reaching 100%, it is emphasized that the movable body 32 has moved to the production position in the layer 6 image drawing area which is lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. The motion effect image 006SG325 for this purpose is displayed so as to spread from the movable body 32 to the surroundings, and the background effect image 006SG322 is also displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area so as to spread from the movable body 32 to the surroundings (FIG. 63(E) )reference).

Next, after the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends and the fragment image 006SG302 becomes hidden, the movable body 32 starts an operation of moving from the presentation position to the origin position (see FIG. 63(F)). Then, the return operation to the origin position is completed, the reach title image 006SG326 is displayed, and the strong S reach effect develops (see FIG. 63(G)).

<Strong development performance B>
The details of the operation example of strong development effect B will be explained based on FIGS. 64 and 65. FIG. 64 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of strong development effect B. FIG. 65 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of strong development effect B.

As shown in FIG. 64(A), when the strong development effect B is started when a predetermined period has elapsed after the start of the weak S reach effect, the layer 4 image higher than the weak S reach effect image 006SG088 A glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the drawing area, and a crack is displayed radially extending from the approximate center of the glass plate image 006SG301, so that the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner. (See FIG. 64(B)). In addition, the glass plate image 006SG301 is not displayed in the decorative pattern displayed in the layer 2 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301 and the weak S reach effect image 006SG088 displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area. When the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed with the first visibility, but when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed with the second visibility, which is lower than the first visibility, so that the crack appearance is noticeable. It will be displayed as follows.

Further, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the small fragment image 006SG302A is displayed falling downward from the portion where the crack is displayed, and then goes out of frame and becomes hidden. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A may be displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area or in the layer 4 image drawing area.

Next, after the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed at approximately the center position in the layer 7 image drawing area (see FIG. 64(C)), the whiteout image 006SG303 spreads to the periphery, and the whiteout image 006SG303 covers the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time. is displayed (see FIG. 64(D)).

Further, as shown in FIG. 64(D), at the timing when the white-out image 006SG303 is displayed in the entire display screen, the glass plate image 006SG301 is hidden, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is replaced with the glass plate image 006SG301. A crack effect is performed in which the entire area of the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above 006SG301 is broken, and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area. be done. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the visibility of the decorative pattern and fragment image 006SG302 becomes higher (see FIG. 64(E)). Next, the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends when the transmittance reaches 100%, and the decorative pattern in which the developed pattern with the word "development" displayed is temporarily stopped is displayed in the middle decorative pattern display area 5C. After that (see FIG. 64(F)), the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends (see FIG. 64(G)).

Next, after the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed at approximately the center position in the layer 7 image drawing area (see FIG. 64(H)), the whiteout image 006SG303 spreads to the surroundings, and the whiteout image 006SG303 covers the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time. is displayed, and the developed pattern is hidden (see FIG. 65(I)). Then, as the transmittance gradually increases with the passage of time, the visibility of the reach title image 006SG326 corresponding to the strong S reach effect becomes higher (see FIGS. 65(J) and (K)).

In this way, by executing the cracking effect when the weak S reach effect develops into the strong S reach effect, it is possible to make it appear as if the weak S reach effect image 006SG088 has been broken and changed to the reach title image 006SG326. Therefore, changes in reach performance can be shown without any discomfort.

<Cut-in production>
The details of the operation example of the cut-in effect will be explained based on FIG. 66. FIG. 66 is a diagram showing details of an operation example of cut-in effect.

As shown in FIG. 66(A), when the cut-in effect is started when a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the start of the strong S reach effect, the fourth background image 006SG084 for the strong S reach effect is The operation promotion image 006SG310 is displayed in the layer 8 image drawing area (see FIG. 66(B)).

Next, when the push button 31B is operated (or when the valid operation period ends without the push button 31B being operated), the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area above the fourth background image 006SG084. The glass plate image 006SG301A is not displayed in a cracked manner, but the entire area of the glass plate image 006SG301A is cracked, and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area. A cracking effect is performed. In addition, the operation promotion image 006SG310 is displayed in a state where the button is pressed by operation, and the operation effect image 006SG327 is displayed around it, which is enlarged and displayed as time passes (FIG. 66(C), (See (D)).

Furthermore, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302 (see FIG. 66(C)). Note that the operation promotion image 006SG310 and the operation effect image 006SG327 are displayed in the layer 8 image drawing area above the whiteout image 006SG303, so the first visibility is the same as when the whiteout image 006SG303 is not displayed. It is displayed while maintaining the first visibility.

Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the fragment image 006SG302 becomes visible (see FIG. 66(D)), and the operation promotion image 006SG310 and the operation effect image 006SG327 become hidden. , "Heat!!" character image 006SG307 becomes visible (see FIG. 66(E)), and after the display of whiteout image 006SG303 ends as the transmittance reaches 100% (see FIG. 66(F)). ), the fragment image 006SG302 is hidden (see FIG. 66(G)).

In addition, in this embodiment, the performance patterns X and Y of the cut-in performance are both described as performance patterns with a cracking performance, but as the performance pattern of the cut-in performance, the performance pattern Y with high expectation of jackpot is used as a performance pattern with a high probability of winning. The performance pattern X with a low jackpot expectation may be used as a chance performance pattern that involves a performance, and the performance pattern that does not involve a cracking performance.In such a case, in the performance pattern that does not involve a cracking performance, a belt-shaped The effect may be performed in such a manner that a cut-in image (not shown) is displayed.

<Result notification performance (jackpot)>
Details of an example of the operation of the result notification performance (jackpot) will be explained based on FIGS. 67 and 68. FIG. 67 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of the result notification effect when the variable display result is a jackpot. FIG. 68 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of the result notification effect when the variable display result is a jackpot.

As shown in FIG. 67(A), when a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the end of the cut-in effect, a character image 006SG305 showing an ally character attacking an enemy character is displayed, and a result notification effect is started. Then, the operation speed of the character image 006SG305 gradually decreases and the character image 006SG305 is displayed in slow motion while fading out, and then a whiteout image with a transmittance of 0% (opaque) is displayed over the entire display screen (see FIG. 67(B)). ).

Next, when the variable display result becomes a jackpot display result, after the object image 006SG308 in which the attack of the ally character hits the enemy character is displayed (see FIG. 67(C)), the movable body 32 moves from the origin position to the predetermined production position. At the same time as the falling motion starts, in accordance with this falling motion, the glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area above the object image 006SG308, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed as a crack precursor image. The glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in the form of a crack by displaying the crack so as to spread downward from the movable body 32. Further, the object image 006SG308 displayed in the layer 3 image drawing area lower than the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in the first visibility when the glass plate image 006SG301 is not displayed, while the glass plate image When 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed in the second visibility, which is lower in visibility than the first visibility, so that the crack aspect is displayed conspicuously (see FIG. 67(D)).

Furthermore, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in the form of a crack, the small fragment image 006SG302A is displayed falling downward from the portion where the crack is displayed, and then disappears. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A may be displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area or in the layer 4 image drawing area.

Next, display of the whiteout image 006SG303 is started at a position near the bottom of the movable body 32 in the layer 7 image drawing area (see FIG. 67(E)), and a return-to-origin operation is performed in which the movable body 32 rises from the predetermined presentation position to the origin position. In response to the start of the whiteout image 006SG303, the whiteout image 006SG303 expands downward, and the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time (see FIG. 67(F)).

Further, as shown in FIG. 67(F), at the timing when the return-to-origin operation of the movable body 32 is started and the white-out image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen, the glass plate image 006SG301 is hidden and the corresponding Instead of the glass plate image 006SG301, the entire area of the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area above the glass plate image 006SG301 is broken, and a plurality of pieces larger than the small fragment image 006SG302A are displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area. A cracking effect in which the fragment image 006SG302 scatters is executed. Note that the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time after the cracking effect is started. The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302. Then, as the transmittance gradually increases over time, the visibility of the decorative pattern and fragment image 006SG302 becomes higher (see FIG. 67(G)).

Next, the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends when the transmittance reaches 100%, and after the fifth background image 006SG085 and the determined decorative pattern of the jackpot combination are displayed (see FIG. 67(H)), the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed. The display of is completed, the jackpot game state is notified (see FIG. 68(I)), the background image returns to the first background image 006SG081, and the determined decorative symbols of the jackpot combination are stopped and displayed ( (See Figure 68(J)).

In addition, after the cracking effect is started in response to the start of the upward movement for the movable body 32 to return to its origin, the transmittance of the whiteout image 006SG303 increases and the display of the fragment image 006SG302 becomes visible. By completing the rising motion of the movable body 32 to return from the predetermined performance position to the origin position before the end (becomes non-display), it is possible to quickly notify that a jackpot has been achieved.

<Result notification performance (missing)>
The details of the operation example of the result notification effect (loss) will be explained based on FIG. 69. FIG. 69 is a diagram showing details of an example of the operation of the result notification effect when the variable display result is a failure.

As shown in FIG. 69(A), when a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the end of the cut-in effect, a character image 006SG305 showing an ally character attacking an enemy character is displayed, and a result notification effect is started. Then, the operation speed of the character image 006SG305 gradually decreases and the character image 006SG305 is displayed in slow motion while fading out, and then a whiteout image with a transmittance of 0% (opaque) is displayed over the entire display screen (see FIG. 69(B)). ).

Next, when the variable display result is an off display result, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed over the entire display screen for a predetermined period of time in the layer 7 image drawing area without moving the movable body 32 (FIG. 69(C) reference). The whiteout image 006SG303 is a white image displayed in the layer 7 image drawing area with a transmittance of 0% (opaque), and at the start of display, it is displayed in a layer lower than the layer 7 image drawing area. It becomes difficult to visually recognize the glass plate image 006SG301 and the character image 006SG305.

Thereafter, a glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area above the character image 006SG305, and cracks are displayed radially spreading from the approximate center position of the glass plate image 006SG301. As a result, the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner. The character image 006SG305 displayed in the layer 3 image drawing area below the glass plate image 006SG301 and the gray background image 006SG313 displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area are 1 visibility, while when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, it is displayed at the 2nd visibility, which is lower than the 1st visibility, so that the crack aspect is displayed more conspicuously. (See FIG. 69(D)).

Further, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the small fragment image 006SG302A is displayed falling downward from the portion where the crack is displayed, and then goes out of frame and becomes hidden. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A may be displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area or in the layer 4 image drawing area.

In this way, although the glass plate image 006SG301 was displayed in a cracked state, the cracked state was maintained and the cracking effect in which the glass plate image 006SG301 was broken was not performed, so that it was not controlled to a jackpot game state. be notified.

When a predetermined period of time has passed since the glass plate image 006SG301 was displayed in a cracked manner, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed again in the entire layer 7 image drawing area (see FIG. 69(E)), and then the eye-catching image 006SG309 is displayed. After being displayed (see FIG. 69(F)), the background image returns to the first background image 006SG081, and the determined decorative symbols of combinations that are not jackpots are stopped and displayed (see FIG. 69(G)).

(Details of performance)
Next, a detailed explanation will be given of each effect that can be executed in this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 70, FIG. 72, FIG. 53, and FIG. is displayed (first stage crack display period). Next, when the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken, the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301 is broken, and the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 1000 ms (fragment image display period). Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the above-mentioned broken image 006SG302 from the player is displayed for 400ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display is Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the earlier period is displayed for 400 ms (whiteout display latter period). For this reason, in the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous breaking effect of the present embodiment, in the initial whiteout display period of 400 ms from the cracking timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the player is blocked by the whiteout image 006SG303 and cannot see the broken pieces. It is now impossible to visually recognize 006SG302. On the other hand, during 600 ms including the latter whiteout display period after the early whiteout display period, the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible to the player, and the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible to the player.

Furthermore, from the crack timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A, a second stage crack is displayed for 3000 ms around the broken area of the glass plate image 006SG301A (target area of the crack effect) (second stage crack display). period). Note that the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous cracking effect have transparency, and other images ( For example, background images, etc.) are visible to the player.

In addition, in the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous cracking effect, a cracking sound corresponding to the display of the crack is output from the speakers 8L and 8R over the above-mentioned crack display period of 500 ms, and the glass plate For 1000 ms from the cracking timing of the image 006SG301A, a cracking effect sound corresponding to the cracking effect is output from the speakers 8L and 8R (cracking sound output period). Note that the types of cracking sound and cracking effect sound that are output are common between the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous cracking effect, but in the first continuous cracking effect, the types of cracking effect sounds shown in Fig. 53 (E ) is output, and in the second continuous crack effect, a second character voice corresponding to the character shown in FIG. 54(E) is output together with the crack effect sound. This makes it easy to distinguish between the first continuous crack effect and the second continuous crack effect. Furthermore, the crack effect sound has a louder volume than the crack effect sound and is a sound that is easily recognized by the player, but the first character voice and the second character voice are output at an even higher volume than the crack effect sound, Moreover, since the output period is longer than that of the crack effect sound, the sound is more easily recognized by the player than the crack effect sound.

Furthermore, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the normal background image until the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the light emission of the game effect lamp 9 can be performed in a manner according to the display of the normal background image (first background image 006SG081). Light emission that is not mainly white light emission is performed, and by using the light emission data table for cracking effect (whiteout 800ms) for 800ms from the cracking timing of glass plate image 006SG301A to the end timing of the whiteout display latter period, Light emission, mainly white light emission, is performed in a manner according to the crack effect. Furthermore, after the light emission is completed in a manner corresponding to the crack effect, by using the light emission data table for normal background images again, light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to the display of the normal background image (first background image 006SG081). be exposed. In addition, the light emission data table for the crack effect (whiteout 800ms) causes the game effect lamp 9 to emit white light at high brightness for 400ms corresponding to the early period of whiteout display, and for 400ms corresponding to the latter period of whiteout display. This is a data table for causing the game effect lamp 9 to alternately emit white light at high brightness and low brightness.

As shown in FIG. 70, FIG. 73, and FIG. 55, as a dialogue preview performance, first, as an operation promotion performance, an operation promotion that prompts the player to operate the push button 31B in the display area of the image display device 5 is performed. The image is displayed for 3000 ms (operation promotion performance execution period). When the player operates the push button 31B during execution of the operation promotion effect, or when the execution period of the operation promotion effect ends, the first stage crack is displayed for 500 ms from the timing (1st stage crack display period). Next, when it comes time for the glass plate image 006SG301A to break, a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301 breaks, and a fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 1000 ms (fragment image display period ). Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the above-mentioned broken image 006SG302 from the player is displayed for 400ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display is Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the earlier period is displayed for 400 ms (whiteout display latter period). Therefore, in the speech preview performance of this embodiment, the player is blocked by the whiteout image 006SG303 and cannot visually recognize the broken image 006SG302 during the initial whiteout display period of 400 ms from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A. It becomes. On the other hand, during 600 ms including the latter period of whiteout display after the first period of whiteout display, the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible to the player as the period in which the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible.

Furthermore, from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, a second stage crack is displayed for 5000 ms around the broken area of the glass plate image 006SG301A (target area of the crack effect). Incidentally, the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the dialogue preview performance have transparency, and other images (for example, background images, etc.) displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 can be played through these fragment images 006SG302. person is visible.

In addition, in the dialogue preview performance, a cracking sound corresponding to the display of the crack is output from speakers 8L and 8R for 500 ms, which is the crack display period of the first stage described above (crack sound output period). For 1000 ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the speakers 8L and 8R output a crack effect sound corresponding to the break effect (break effect sound output period). In addition, the types of cracking sound and cracking effect sound that are output are common between the dialogue preview performance, the first continuous cracking performance, and the second continuous cracking performance, and the cracking performance sound was output in the dialogue preview performance. Afterwards (when the crack effect sound output period has elapsed), a dialogue voice sound corresponding to the type of character image 006SG306 is output. This can prevent dialogue voice sounds from becoming difficult to hear due to cracking effect sounds.

Furthermore, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the normal background image until the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301, the light emission of the game effect lamp 9 can be performed in a manner according to the display of the normal background image (first background image 006SG081). Light emission that is not mainly white light emission is performed, and by using the light emission data table for cracking effect (whiteout 800ms) for 800ms from the cracking timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A to the end timing of the whiteout display latter period, Light emission, mainly white light emission, is performed in a manner according to the crack effect. Furthermore, after the light emission is completed in a manner corresponding to the crack effect, by using the light emission data table for normal background images again, light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to the display of the normal background image (first background image 006SG081). be exposed.

As shown in FIG. 70, FIG. 74(A), FIG. 74(B), FIG. 56, and FIG. is displayed, and an image in which the character acts on the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed for 2000 ms (first stage operation period). A crack is displayed for 2000 ms from the end timing of the preceding action (action of the character) (crack display period).

As shown in FIG. 74(B), the crack display period of 2000 ms consists of a 1000 ms pre-crack display period and a 1000 ms post-crack display period after the pre-crack display period. . In the pre-crack display period, an action effect corresponding to the action of the character is displayed for 100 ms from the start timing of the pre-crack display period, and a fragment image 006SG302 is displayed from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A. A small fragment image 006SG302A smaller in size is displayed for 200 ms.

Next, when the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks, the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) that had been displayed at that timing is updated to the chance background image (second background image 006SG082) (FIG. 57) reference). Furthermore, from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken, the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 2500 ms (fragment image display period). Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the above-mentioned broken image 006SG302 from the player is displayed for 500ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display is Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the earlier period is displayed for 500 ms (whiteout display latter period). Therefore, in the background change effect A of this embodiment, the player is blocked by the whiteout image 006SG303 and cannot visually recognize the broken image 006SG302 during the initial whiteout display period of 500 ms from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A. It is possible. On the other hand, for 2000 ms including the latter period of whiteout display after the first period of whiteout display, the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible for the player to view.

Note that the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the background change effect A in the success pattern have transparency, and other images (for example, background (images, etc.) can be viewed by the player.

In addition, in the background change effect A in the success pattern, a cracking sound is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 500 ms from the start timing of the crack pre-display period described above in accordance with the display of the crack. Along with the sound output period), a character voice corresponding to the action of the character is output, and for 2500 ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, a crack effect sound corresponding to the crack effect is output from the speakers 8L and 8R. (Cracked production sound output period). In addition, the cracking effect sound in background change effect A is a sound exclusively for background change effect A, and includes the sound effect of glass plate image 006SG301A being broken and the sound effect notifying that the background image has been switched to a chance background image. It is a sound composed of the following, and a sound effect notifying that the background image has been switched to a chance background image is output for 1000ms out of the 2500ms output period along with the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken. After that, a sound effect notifying that the background image has been switched to the chance background image is continuously output for 1500 ms. Furthermore, although the output period of the crack sound is set to 500 ms, it may be set to 2000 ms corresponding to the crack display period, or the sound may be output in accordance with the progress of the crack over 2000 ms. Furthermore, overlapping with the cracking sound, a motion effect sound is output for a period of 100 ms corresponding to the motion effect display period. The motion effect sound is a sound that is output at a louder volume than the cracking sound, and the cracking sound is difficult to hear when the motion effect sound is output, but since the output period is shorter than the cracking sound, the motion effect sound is It becomes possible to hear the cracking sound after the output.

Furthermore, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the normal background image light emission data table until the start timing of the crack display period, the light emission is white in a manner according to the display of the normal background image (first background image 006SG081). The light emission data for the crack display period mainly causes the game effect lamp 9 to emit white light for 2000 ms from the start timing of the crack display period to the crack timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A. By using the table, light is emitted in a manner that corresponds to the displayed crack. Furthermore, by using the light emission data table for crack effect (whiteout 1000 ms) for 1000 ms from the crack timing of glass plate image 006SG301A to the end timing of the whiteout display latter period, the white color is displayed in a manner corresponding to the crack effect. Light emission is mainly performed. In addition, after the light emission in the manner corresponding to the cracking effect is completed, by using the light emission data table for chance background image, the white light emission is mainly performed in the manner according to the display of the chance background image (second background image 006SG082). Light emission is performed without In addition, the light emission data table for the crack effect (whiteout 1000ms) causes the game effect lamp 9 to emit white light at high brightness for 500ms corresponding to the early period of whiteout display, and for 500ms corresponding to the latter period of whiteout display. This is a data table for causing the game effect lamp 9 to alternately emit white light at high brightness and low brightness. Although an example has been described in which a light emission data table for a normal background image is used in the pre-stage operation period, the present invention is not limited to this. The game effect lamp 9 may be made to emit light using the light emission data table. In this case, until the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, the game effect lamp 9 mainly emits green light corresponding to the character in FIG. 56(D), but after the glass plate image 006SG301 and the glass plate image 006SG301A are displayed. In this case, the game effect lamp 9 mainly emits white light corresponding to the glass plate image 006SG301 and the glass plate image 006SG301A. By doing this, there will be a sharp difference between before the glass plate image 006SG301 and the glass plate image 006SG301A are displayed and when the glass plate image 006SG301 and the glass plate image 006SG301A are displayed, so that the background change effect A is produced. The effect can be further enhanced. The light emission data table for the crack display period and the light emission data table for the crack effect (whiteout 1000ms) are both light emission data tables that execute light emission mainly of white light. White light emission based on the light emission data table for 1000ms) is executed including a blinking pattern that alternates high-intensity white light emission and low-intensity white light emission, whereas white light emission based on the light emission data table for crack display period White light emission is performed without including a blinking pattern.

Note that, as shown in FIG. 74(C), in the background change effect A in the failure pattern, the character is not displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 as a preliminary operation. That is, in the background change effect A in the failure pattern, since the character is not displayed, the cracking effect is not executed, and therefore the display of the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) continues to be executed. In this case, as shown in FIGS. 56(B) and (C), although the character is displayed or not, neither the character nor the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed. An image emission data table is used.

As shown in FIGS. 70, 75(A), and 58, as the background change effect B of the successful pattern, first, a crack in the first stage is displayed for 3000 ms in the display area of the image display device 5. (1st stage crack display period). In the first-stage crack display period, from the start timing of the first-stage crack display period, a small fragment image 006SG302A smaller in size than the fragment image 006SG302 displayed from the crack timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed for 200 ms. be done.

Further, from the timing when 1500 ms has elapsed in the first stage crack display period, the second stage crack is displayed in a wider area in the display area of the image display device 5 for 1500 ms than in the first stage crack display period. (2nd stage crack display period). In addition, even in the second stage crack display period, from the start timing of the second stage crack display period, a small fragment image 006SG302A, which is smaller in size than the fragment image 006SG302 displayed from the crack timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A, is displayed for 200 ms. will be displayed. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A in the first stage crack display period and the small fragment image 006SG302A in the second stage crack display period have different values of the "strength" and "repetition" parameters shown in FIG. While each small pod fragment image is designed to have a different size and number, the value of the "gravity" parameter is the same, so they are commonly displayed in a downward frame-out. It has become.

Next, when the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks, the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) that had been displayed at that timing is updated to the chance background image (second background image 006SG082) (FIG. 58) reference). Furthermore, from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken, the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 1250 ms (fragment image display period). Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the above-mentioned broken image 006SG302 from the player is displayed for 500ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display is Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the earlier period is displayed for 500 ms (whiteout display latter period). Therefore, in the background change effect A of the present embodiment, during the initial whiteout display period of 500 ms from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking, the player is blocked by the whiteout image 006SG303 and cannot visually recognize the broken image 006SG302. It is possible. On the other hand, during 750 ms including the latter period of whiteout display after the first period of whiteout display, the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible to the player as the period in which the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible.

Incidentally, the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the background change effect B in the success pattern have transparency, and other images (for example, background (images, etc.) can be viewed by the player.

In addition, in the background change production B in the success pattern, the first stage crack sound is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 500ms from the start timing of the first stage crack display period in accordance with the display of the crack. (1st stage cracking sound output period), the speakers 8L and 8R output the second cracking sound corresponding to the display of the crack for 500ms from the start timing of the second crack display period (2nd stage cracking sound output period). For 150 ms from the cracking timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the speakers 8L and 8R output a cracking effect sound corresponding to the cracking effect (the cracking effect sound output period). In addition, the cracking effect sound in background change effect B is a sound exclusively for background change effect B, and includes the sound effect of glass plate image 006SG301A being broken and the sound effect notifying that the background image has been switched to a chance background image. It is a sound composed of the following, and a sound effect notifying that the background image has been switched to a chance background image is output for 1000ms out of the 1250ms output period along with the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken. After that, a sound effect notifying that the background image has been switched to the chance background image is continuously output for 250 ms. In addition, the volume related to cracking in background change effect B is that the cracking effect sound is the loudest, and the volume may be the same for the 1st stage cracking sound and the 2nd stage cracking sound, or the volume of the 2nd stage cracking sound may be the same. may be made louder than the first stage cracking sound.

Furthermore, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the normal background image until the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the light emission of the game effect lamp 9 can be performed in a manner according to the display of the normal background image (first background image 006SG081). Light emission that is not mainly white light emission is performed, and by using the light emission data table for cracking effect (whiteout 1000ms) for 1000ms from the cracking timing of glass plate image 006SG301A to the end timing of the whiteout display latter period, Light emission, mainly white light emission, is performed in a manner according to the crack effect. Furthermore, after the light emission is completed in a manner corresponding to the crack effect, by using the light emission data table for chance background image, light emission is performed in a manner according to the display of the chance background image (second background image 006SG082). .

As shown in FIGS. 75(B) and 75(C), the background change effect B in failure pattern 1 is a crack in the first stage for 1500 ms and a crack in the outer first stage for 200 ms. Although the small fragment image corresponding to the failure pattern 2 is displayed, the second stage crack is not displayed and the glass plate image 006SG301A is not broken. The first stage crack and a small fragment image are displayed for 200ms, and the second stage crack is displayed for 1500ms from the timing when 1500ms has elapsed in the first stage crack display period, and the second stage crack is displayed for 200ms. Although a small fragment image corresponding to the crack is displayed, the effect pattern is such that the glass plate image 006SG301A does not break. In the background change effect B with these failure patterns, the glass plate image 006SG301A does not break, so the display of the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) continues to be executed.

As shown in FIG. 70, FIG. 76, and FIG. 59, as a pseudo-continuous effect, first, in the display area of the image display device 5, a "left" decorative pattern, a "right" decorative pattern, and a "middle" decorative pattern are displayed. Temporarily stop in this order. A crack is displayed for 1500 ms from the stop timing of the pseudo-continuous pattern which is the "medium" decorative pattern (crack display period). During the crack display period, a falling operation of the movable body 32 is performed for 1500 ms as a preliminary operation (movable body falling period). When the falling operation of the movable body 32 is completed (1500 ms have elapsed), it is time for the glass plate image 006SG301A to break. It should be noted that the cracks in the crack display period of the pseudo continuous effect and the cracks in the crack display period of the background change effect A are designed to occur in different ways. For example, the crack in the background change effect A is displayed in such a manner that the crack in the glass plate image 006SG301 progresses step by step over the pre-crack display period and the post-crack display period. The cracks are displayed in such a manner that the glass plate image 006SG301 cracks all at once.

Next, when the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking comes, the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 1000 ms from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking (fragment image display period). Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the above-mentioned broken image 006SG302 from the player is displayed for 500ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display is Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the earlier period is displayed for 500 ms (whiteout display latter period). For this reason, in the pseudo-continuous effect of this embodiment, the player is unable to visually recognize the broken image 006SG302 because the player is blocked by the white-out image 006SG303 during the initial white-out display period of 500 ms from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A. It becomes. On the other hand, in 500 ms of the latter period of whiteout display, the fragment image 006SG302 can be visually recognized by the player as a period in which the fragment image 006SG302 can be visually recognized. Additionally, a background effect image 006SG322 is displayed together with the fragment image 006SG302 for 3000ms from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking.

Note that the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the pseudo continuous effect do not have transparency, and other images (for example, background images, etc.) displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 can be seen through these fragment images 006SG302. The player is invisible.

Incidentally, for 3000 ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the speakers 8L and 8R output a crack effect sound corresponding to the crack effect (break effect sound output period). In addition, the cracking effect sound in the pseudo continuous effect is a sound exclusively for the pseudo continuous effect, and includes the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken and the sound effect of the movement effect corresponding to the falling of the movable body 32. This is a composed sound, and the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking is output for 1000 ms out of the 3000 ms output period, as well as the sound effect of the movement effect corresponding to the falling of the movable body 32, and then for 2000 ms. The sound effect of the motion effect corresponding to the falling of the movable body 32 is continuously output. Thereafter, after the output period of the crack effect sound ends, BGM corresponding to the normal background image or the chance background image is output, so that various sounds are output during the rising period of the movable body 32. Furthermore, from the end timing of the whiteout display latter period, that is, the end timing of the display of the fragment image 006G302, the movable body 32 is raised to the initial position over a period of 3000 ms (movable body rising period).

Furthermore, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the normal background image or the light emission data table for the chance background image until the crack display start timing, the light emission from the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) or the chance background Light emission other than white light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to the display of the image (second background image 006SG082), and for 2000 ms from the start timing of crack display to the crack timing of glass plate image 006SG301A, it is used for crack display. By using the light emission data table, light emission, mainly white light emission, is performed in a manner corresponding to the crack display. Then, by using the light emission data table for crack effect (whiteout 1000 ms) for 1000 ms from the crack timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A to the end timing of the whiteout display latter period, the white color is displayed in a manner corresponding to the crack effect. Light emission is mainly performed. After the light emission in the manner corresponding to the cracking effect ends, for 2000 ms, by using the light emission data table for pseudo continuous effect corresponding to the number of times the pseudo continuous effect has been executed, the mode corresponding to the number of executions of the pseudo continuous effect is used. The light is emitted. For example, when executing the first pseudo continuous effect, the game effect lamp 9 is emitted in green according to the execution of the first pseudo continuous effect, and when the second pseudo continuous effect is executed, the second pseudo continuous effect is emitted. The game effect lamp 9 may be made to emit red light in accordance with the execution of the performance. After the light emission is completed in a manner corresponding to the number of executions of the pseudo continuous effect, the normal background image (first background image 006SG081 ) or the chance background image (second background image 006SG082). The light emission data table for the crack display period and the light emission data table for the crack effect (whiteout 1000ms) are both light emission data tables that execute light emission mainly of white light. White light emission based on the light emission data table for 1000ms) is executed including a blinking pattern that alternates high-intensity white light emission and low-intensity white light emission, whereas white light emission based on the light emission data table for crack display period White light emission is performed without including a blinking pattern.

Note that, as shown in FIGS. 74 and 76, the background change effect A and the pseudo continuous effect in this embodiment have different crack display periods, but the present invention is not limited to this. Instead, the length of the crack display period may be the same in the background change effect A and the pseudo continuous effect.

As shown in FIG. 70, FIG. 77(A), FIG. 60, and FIG. 61, as a reach suggestion effect of a successful pattern, first, as a preliminary action, a character is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and the character is an image that acts on the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L in the glass plate image 006SG301, an image that acts on the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R in the glass plate image 006SG301, and an image that acts on the "middle" decorative pattern in the glass plate image 006SG301. The images that act on the display area 5C are displayed in order over 10000 ms (first stage operation period). During the first stage operation period, from the timing when the character acts on the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L in the glass plate image 006SG301, a crack is displayed for 8000 ms in the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L ( Furthermore, from the timing when the character acts on the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R in the glass plate image 006SG301, a crack is displayed for 4000 ms in the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R. (right crack display period).

Among these, during the left crack display period, from the start timing of the left crack display period, an action effect corresponding to the action of the character is displayed around the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L for 100 ms, and the glass plate A small fragment image 006SG302A smaller in size than the fragment image 006SG302 displayed from the crack timing of the image 006SG301A is displayed around the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L for 200 ms, and from the start timing of the right crack display period, A movement effect corresponding to the action of the character is displayed for 100ms around the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R, and a small image smaller in size than the fragment image 006SG302 that is displayed from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking. The fragment image 006SG302A is displayed around the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R for 200 ms. The small fragment image 006SG302A displayed around the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L and the small fragment image 006SG302A displayed around the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R are different from each other as shown in FIG. Because the values of the parameters of "strength" and "repetition" are different, the speed of scattering and the size and number of each small fragment image are designed to be different, but the value of the parameter of "gravity" is the same. Because of this, they are commonly displayed in a downward frame.

When the character acts on the "middle" decorative pattern display area 5C in the glass plate image 006SG301 during the pre-stage operation period and the pre-stage operation period ends, it is time for the glass plate image 006SG301A to break. When the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks, the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) or chance background image (second background image 006SG082) that was displayed at that timing becomes the normal reach background corresponding to the normal reach effect. The image will be updated. Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 2000 ms (fragment image display period). Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the above-mentioned broken image 006SG302 from the player is displayed for 500ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display is Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the earlier period is displayed for 500 ms (whiteout display latter period). For this reason, in the reach suggestion effect of the success pattern of this embodiment, the player is obstructed by the whiteout image 006SG303 and visually recognizes the broken image 006SG302 during the initial whiteout display period of 500 ms from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking. has become impossible. On the other hand, during 1500 ms including the latter period of whiteout display after the first period of whiteout display, the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible to the player as a period in which the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible.

Furthermore, from the end of the latter half of the white-out display period, the highlighted display of the decorative symbols will be increased to 3000 ms to notify the player that the player has reached a reach, for example by temporarily enlarging the decorative symbols. This is carried out over a period of time (decorative pattern highlighting period).

Note that the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the reach suggestion performance in the success pattern have transparency, and other images (for example, background images) displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 can be seen through these fragment images 006SG302. etc.) are visible to the player.

In addition, in the reach suggestion performance in the success pattern, a left crack sound is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 500 ms from the start timing of the left crack display period described above in accordance with the display of the crack (left crack display period). Along with the cracking sound output period), the first character voice corresponding to the first action of the character is output, and the right sound corresponding to the display of the crack is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 500ms from the start timing of the above-mentioned right crack display period. At the same time as the cracking sound is output (right cracking sound output period), the second character voice corresponding to the second action of the character is output, and for 2000ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the speaker 8L , 8R, the crack effect sound corresponding to the crack effect is output (break effect sound output period). In addition, the cracking effect sound in the reach suggestion production (success pattern) is a sound exclusively for the reach suggestion production, and the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken and the temporary enlargement of the decorative pattern are used to indicate the reach. This is a sound that includes a sound effect of emphasizing the decorative pattern to notify the player that the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed for 1000ms out of the 3000ms output period. The highlighted sound effect is output together with the cracked sound effect, and then the highlighted sound effect is continuously output for 2000 ms. Thereafter, after the output period of the crack effect sound ends, BGM corresponding to the normal reach background image will be output. Furthermore, when the action effect corresponding to the action of the character is displayed, the sound effect corresponding to the action effect is output, and this sound effect is produced in the decorative pattern display area 5L where the action effect is on the "left". It is used both when displayed around the periphery and when displayed around the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R.

Furthermore, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) is controlled by using the light emission data table for the normal background image or the light emission data table for the chance background image until the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A. Alternatively, light emission other than white light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to the display of the chance background image (second background image 006SG082), and within 1000 ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A to the end timing of the whiteout display latter period. By using the light emission data table for the cracking effect (whiteout 1000 ms), light emission mainly consisting of white light is performed in a manner corresponding to the cracking effect. After the light emission in a manner corresponding to the crack effect is completed, by using the light emission data table for the normal reach background image, light emission other than mainly white light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to the display of the normal reach background image.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 77(B), in the reach-suggesting performance in the failure pattern, as a preliminary operation, a character is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and the character is displayed in the decorative pattern display area on the "left". 5L, an image that acts on the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R, and an image that acts on the "middle" decorative pattern display area 5C are sequentially displayed for 14000 ms (first stage operation period). During the first stage operation period, from the timing when the character acts on the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L, a crack is displayed for 12000 ms in the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L (left crack display period). Furthermore, from the timing when the character acts on the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R, a crack is displayed for 8000 ms in the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R (right crack display period).

Among these, during the left crack display period, from the start timing of the left crack display period, an action effect corresponding to the action of the character is displayed around the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L for 100 ms, and the glass plate A small fragment image 006SG302A smaller in size than the fragment image 006SG302 displayed from the crack timing of the image 006SG301A is displayed around the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L for 200 ms, and from the start timing of the right crack display period, A movement effect corresponding to the action of the character is displayed for 100ms around the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R, and a small image smaller in size than the fragment image 006SG302 that is displayed from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking. The fragment image 006SG302A is displayed around the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R for 200 ms. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302 in the failure pattern is displayed based on the same parameter values as the small fragment image 006SG302 in the success pattern, so the scattering speed of the small fragment image 006SG302 and the size and number of each small fragment image are different. Since the player cannot determine whether the pattern is a success pattern or a failure pattern by looking at the pattern, it is possible to incite whether or not the normal reach is executed appropriately.

In addition, in the failure pattern reach suggestion performance, a left crack sound is output from speakers 8L and 8R for 500 ms from the start timing of the left crack display period described above in accordance with the display of the crack (left crack Right crack sound is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 500 ms from the start timing of the right crack display period (sound output period) in accordance with the display of the crack (right crack sound output period). Furthermore, from the same timing as the cracking timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A in the reach suggestion performance of the successful pattern (timing 10000 has elapsed from the start of the reach suggestion performance of the failure pattern), the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed for 1000 ms. (whiteout display period). The white-out display period is a period in which other images displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 are rendered invisible to the player by displaying the white-out image 006SG303. Furthermore, when the motion effect corresponding to the action of the character is displayed, the sound effect corresponding to the motion effect is output. It is designed to be used both when displayed around the periphery and when displayed around the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R.

In addition, in the reach suggestion effect of the failure pattern, until the start timing of the whiteout display period, the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) using the light emission data table for normal background images or chance background images or the chance background image After light emission is executed in a manner according to the display of the second background image 006SG082, during the whiteout display period, white light is emitted in a manner according to the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 using the whiteout light emission data table. Light emission mainly involves light emission. Then, from the end of the white-out display period, the failure notification light emission data table is used to emit white light in a manner corresponding to the notification that there is no reach (that the reach suggestion effect is a failure pattern). The main light emission is performed. Incidentally, the light emission in a manner corresponding to the notification that the reach is not reached (that the reach suggesting performance is a failure pattern) ends when the variable display is stopped. Note that the light emission data table for cracking effect (whiteout 1000ms), the light emission data table for whiteout, and the light emission data table for failure notification are all light emission data tables that execute light emission mainly of white light emission. , White light emission based on the light emission data table for cracking effect (whiteout 1000ms) is executed including a blinking pattern that alternates high-intensity white emission and low-intensity white emission, whereas for whiteout White light emission based on the light emission data table and the failure notification light emission data table is executed without including a blinking pattern. Further, while the game effect lamp 9 is emitting light based on the failure notification light emission data table (until the variable display ends by stopping the variable display), no effect sound is output from the speakers 8L and 8R.

As shown in FIGS. 71, 78, and 62, in the weak development effect, first, as a preliminary action, a character is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and the character is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5. The image acting on the central part is displayed for 4000 ms (pre-stage operation period). Although the pre-operation period is set to 4000 ms, a separate pre-operation period (2000 ms) pattern is provided, and when it is suggested to the player that the expectation of a jackpot is high, the pre-operation period (4000 ms) is set as 4000 ms. It may be determined at a high rate to execute the weak development effect using the pattern of the first stage operation period (2000 ms).

Next, when the timing of glass plate image 006SG301A breaking comes, the normal reach background image corresponding to the reach effect of normal reach that had been displayed up to that point changes to the weak development effect background image (background effect image 006SG322) corresponding to the weak development effect. At the same time, the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301 is broken, and a fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 3500 ms (fragment image display period). Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the above-mentioned broken image 006SG302 from the player is displayed for 500ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display is Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the earlier period is displayed for 500 ms (whiteout display latter period). Therefore, in the weak development effect of this embodiment, the player is blocked by the whiteout image 006SG303 and cannot visually recognize the broken image 006SG302 during the initial whiteout display period of 500 ms from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A. It becomes. On the other hand, during 3000 ms including the latter period of whiteout display after the first period of whiteout display, the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible to the player as the period in which the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible. Then, when the display of the fragment image 006SG302 comes to an end, the weak development effect background image corresponding to the weak development effect that had been displayed up to that point is updated to the super reach α background image corresponding to the reach effect of super reach α. Ru.

Note that the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the weak development effect do not have transparency, and other images (for example, background images, etc.) displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 can be seen through these fragment images 006SG302. The player is invisible. Note that the fragment image 006SG302 in the weak development effect does not have transparency, but this is the final display mode of the fragment image 006SG302, and the fragment image 006SG302 in the weak development effect does not have transparency during the fragment image display period. Out of a certain 3500 ms, the display is displayed in a transparent mode for 1500 ms after the display starts (e.g., transmittance of 70% or more), and then gradually becomes non-transparent for 1000 ms. (eg, transmittance of 70% to 10%), and then displays in a non-transparent mode (eg, transmittance of less than 10%) for 1000 ms.

In addition, in the weak development effect, a crack effect sound corresponding to the crack effect is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 1000 ms from the crack timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A (break effect sound output period). In addition to the crack effect sound, a weak development effect sound is also output for 3500 ms from the crack timing. It should be noted that the crack effect sound has a higher volume than the weak development effect sound, so it is a sound that is easily recognized by the player.

Furthermore, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the normal reach background image until the start timing of the pre-stage operation, light emission other than mainly white light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to the display of the normal reach background image. By using the light emission data table for weak development effects over the 4000ms from the start timing of the pre-stage operation to the breakage timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A, light emission that is not mainly white light emission in a manner corresponding to the weak development effect is performed. is performed, and for 1000ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A to the end timing of the whiteout display latter half period, by using the light emission data table for the cracking effect (whiteout 1000ms), it is displayed in a manner according to the cracking effect. The light emission is mainly white light emission, and for 2500 ms from the end of the whiteout display latter period to the end of the fragment image display period, the weak development effect is produced by using the light emitting table for weak development effect again. Light emission is performed in a manner depending on the situation. In addition, after the light emission in the mode corresponding to the cracking effect is completed, by using the light emission data table for the super reach α background image, the mode corresponding to the display of the super reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088) Light emission that is not primarily white light emission occurs.

In addition, in the weak development effect of this embodiment, the background image is updated from the weak development effect background image to the super reach α background image from the timing when the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends, but the present invention is limited to this. Instead, when the background image is updated from the weak development effect background image to the super reach α background image, by displaying the whiteout image 006SG303 on the image display device 5, the weak development effect background image is updated to the super reach The update to the reach α background image may be difficult or impossible for the player to see. In addition, when displaying the whiteout image 006SG303 on the image display device 5 when the background image is updated from the weak development effect background image to the super reach α background image in this way, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed in accordance with the display of the whiteout image 006SG303. The game effect lamp 9 may be caused to emit light using the whiteout light emission data table. Note that the white-out image 006SG303 may be displayed at a timing before the end of the fragment image display period (for example, 500 ms before the end), and in this case, the white-out image 006SG303 may be displayed before the fragment image display period is displayed frame-out. The display of whiteout image 006SG303 will start at .

As shown in FIG. 71, FIG. 79, and FIG. 63, in the strong development effect A, first, as a pre-stage operation, the movable body 32 falls for 1000 ms (movable body falling period). When the falling operation of the movable body 32 is completed (1000 ms has elapsed), it is time for the glass plate image 006SG301A to break.

Next, when the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks, the super reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088) corresponding to the reach effect of the super reach α that had been displayed up to that point changes to the strong development effect A. The fragment image 006SG302 is updated to the strong development effect A background image (background effect image 006SG322) corresponding to , and the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 1500 ms (fragment image display period).

Further, from the timing of the fall of the movable body 32, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the fragment image 006SG302 described above from the player is displayed for 1500 ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display first half period is displayed. Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the period is displayed for 500 ms (whiteout display latter period). Therefore, in the strong development effect A of the present embodiment, the player is blocked by the whiteout image 006SG303 and cannot visually recognize the broken image 006SG302 during the initial whiteout display period of 1500 ms from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A. It is possible. On the other hand, in 500 ms of the latter period of whiteout display after the first period of whiteout display, the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible to the player as the period in which the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible.

Note that the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the strong development effect A have transparency, and other images (for example, background images, etc.) displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 can be seen through these fragment images 006SG302. It is visible to the player.

Then, when the display end timing of the fragment image 006SG302 comes, the strong development effect A background image corresponding to the strong development effect A that had been displayed at that timing changes to the super reach β background image corresponding to the reach effect of super reach β. Updated. The movable body 32 that fell as a preliminary operation is placed at the falling position during the fragment image display period described above, and the movable body 32 rises to the initial position for 1500 ms from the end timing of the fragment image display period. (moveable body rising period). Furthermore, from the start timing of the rise of the movable body 32 (the start timing of the movable body rise period), the sound corresponding to the strong development effect A (strong development effect A effect sound) is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 2500 ms. be exposed. Note that in the strong development effect A, unlike the weak development effect and the like, the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken is not output, so that the user can enjoy the crack effect unique to the strong development effect A. In addition, the sound effect that the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken may be output in the strong development effect A, and in this case, by setting the priority of the strong development effect A effect sound to be high, the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken. The output of sound effects may be limited.

In addition, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the super reach α background image until the timing of the fall of the movable body 32, the display of the super reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088) Light emission that is not mainly white light emission is performed in a corresponding manner, and by using the light emission data table for strong development effect A for 2500 ms from the start timing of the fall of the movable body 32 to the end timing of the fragment image display period, Light emission that is not primarily white light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to strong development effect A. From the timing when the movable body 32 starts rising (the end timing of the fragment image display period), the super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084) can be displayed by using the light emission data table for the super reach β background image. Light emission that is not primarily white light emission occurs in a corresponding manner.

In addition, in the strong development effect A of the present embodiment, an example is given in which the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed as the initial period of whiteout display for 1500 ms from the falling timing of the movable body 32, but the present invention is limited to this. Instead, the whiteout display early period of the strong development effect A may be a period in which the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed for 500 ms or 400 ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A.

As shown in FIG. 71, FIG. 80, FIG. 64, and FIG. 65, as the strong development effect B, first, a crack appears in the display area of the image display device 5 for 1500 ms without the movement of the movable body 32 or the action of the character. is displayed (crack display period). From the start timing of the crack display period, a small fragment image 006SG302A smaller in size than the fragment image 006SG302 displayed from the crack timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed for 200 ms. Note that the small fragment image 006SG302A in the strong development effect B and the small fragment image 006SG302A in the reach suggestion effect, etc. have different values of the "strength" and "repetition" parameters shown in FIG. Each one is designed to be different in size and number.

When 1500 ms passes and the crack display period ends, it is time for the glass plate image 006SG301A to crack. When the timing of glass plate image 006SG301A breaking comes, the Super Reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088) corresponding to the reach effect of Super Reach α that had been displayed up to that point now corresponds to the strong development effect B. Updated to strong development performance B. Furthermore, from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken, the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 3000 ms (fragment image display period). Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the above-mentioned broken image 006SG302 from the player is displayed for 500ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display is Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the earlier period is displayed for 500 ms (whiteout display latter period). Therefore, in the strong development effect B of this embodiment, the player is blocked by the whiteout image 006SG303 and cannot visually recognize the broken image 006SG302 during the initial whiteout display period of 500 ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A. It is possible. On the other hand, for 2500 ms including the latter period of whiteout display after the first period of whiteout display, the fragmented image 006SG302 can be visually recognized by the player as a period in which the fragmented image 006SG302 can be visually recognized.

Note that the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the strong development effect B have transparency, and other images (for example, background images, etc.) displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 can be seen through these fragment images 006SG302. It is visible to the player. Further, the fragment image 006SG302 in the strong development effect B starts being displayed at a normal moving speed, a normal rotational speed, and a normal falling speed, and then is displayed in a slow motion mode.

Then, when the display end timing of the fragment image 006SG302 comes, the strong development effect B background image (background effect image 006SG322) corresponding to the strong development effect B that had been displayed up to that time corresponds to the reach effect of super reach β. It is updated to the super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084). In addition, in strong development effect B, a cracking sound is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 1500 ms from the start timing of the above crack display period (crack sound output period) according to the display of the crack, From the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken to the end timing of the fragment image display period, the speakers 8L and 8R output a sound corresponding to the strong development effect B (strong development effect B effect sound) for 3000 ms. Note that in the strong development effect B, unlike the weak development effect and the like, the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken is not output, so that the user can enjoy the crack effect that is unique to the strong development effect B. Furthermore, in strong development effect B, the sound effect that the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken may be output. In this case, by setting the priority of the strong development effect B effect sound to be high, the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken. The output of sound effects may be limited.

Furthermore, with regard to the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the super reach α background image until the crack display start timing, the light emission of the game effect lamp 9 is controlled according to the display of the super reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088). By using the light emission data table for strong development effect B, the light emission data table for strong development effect B is used for 1500 ms from the start timing of crack display to the crack timing of glass plate image 006SG301A. Light emission that is not mainly white light emission is performed in a mode corresponding to B, and light emission for cracking effect (whiteout 1000ms) is performed for 1000ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A to the end timing of the latter period of whiteout display. By using the data table, the light emission is mainly white light emission in a manner corresponding to the cracking effect, and the strong light emission is performed for 2000ms from the end timing of the late whiteout display period to the end timing of the fragment image display period. By using the light emission data table for advanced effect B, light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to strong advanced effect B. Furthermore, after the light emission is completed in the manner corresponding to the strong development effect B, by using the light emission data table for the super reach B background image, the manner corresponding to the display of the super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084) is changed. Light emission that is not primarily white light emission occurs.

In the strong development effect B of this embodiment, the background image is updated from the strong development effect B background image to the super reach β background image from the timing when the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends. However, when the background image is updated from the strong development effect B background image to the super reach β background image, the strong development effect B is displayed by displaying the whiteout image 006SG303 on the image display device 5. The update from the background image to the super reach β background image may be difficult or impossible for the player to see. In addition, when the background image is updated from the strong development effect B background image to the super reach β background image in this way, when the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed on the image display device 5, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed according to the display of the whiteout image 006SG303. The game effect lamp 9 may be made to emit light using a whiteout light emission data table. In this case, the light emission data table for cracking effect (whiteout 1000ms) and the light emission data table for whiteout are both light emission data tables that execute light emission mainly of white light emission. White light emission based on the light emission data table for whiteout (1000ms) is executed including a blinking pattern that alternates high-intensity white light emission and low-intensity white light emission, whereas white light emission based on the white-out light emission data table Light emission is performed without including a blinking pattern. Further, although the crack display period of strong development effect B is set to 1500 ms, the crack may be displayed for a period longer than 1500 ms until the crack timing. For example, cracks may be displayed so that they gradually expand at first, second, and third timings between the start timing of super reach α and the crack timing.

As shown in FIG. 71, FIG. 81, and FIG. 66, first, as a cut-in performance, an operation promotion performance that prompts the player to operate the push button 31B in the display area of the image display device 5 is performed. The image is displayed for 3000 ms (operation promotion performance execution period). In particular, the operation promotion image during the execution period of the operation promotion effect of this embodiment is displayed as a pre-operation mode image in which the push button 31B is in a protruding state before being operated by the player (pre-operation mode image display period).

When the player operates the push button 31B during execution of the operation promotion effect, or when the execution period of the operation promotion effect ends, this timing is displayed as the break timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A instead of the glass plate image 006SG301. The broken glass plate image 006SG301A is broken, and a fragment image 006SG302 is displayed for 2500 ms (fragment image display period). In addition, from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking, a suggestion image according to the production pattern is displayed until the end of the cut-in production (over 5000ms from the cracking timing), and the above-mentioned fragments are displayed for 500ms. After the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the image 006SG302 from the player is displayed (whiteout display early period), the whiteout image 006SG303, which has a higher transmittance than the whiteout display early period, is displayed for 500 ms. (later period of whiteout display). For this reason, in the cut-in effect of this embodiment, in the early white-out display period of 500 ms from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking, the player is obstructed by the white-out image 006SG303 and cannot visually recognize the fragment image 006SG302 and the suggestion image. has become impossible. On the other hand, for 2000 ms including the latter whiteout display period after the early whiteout display period, the broken image 006SG302 and the suggestion image are visible to the player as a period in which the broken image 006SG302 is visible. Additionally, a background effect image 006SG322 is displayed together with the fragment image 006SG302 for 5000ms from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking.

Note that the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the cut-in effect have transparency, and other images (for example, background images, etc.) displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 can be played through these fragment images 006SG302. person is visible. Further, the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect starts being displayed at a normal moving speed, a normal rotational speed, and a normal falling speed, and then is displayed in a slow motion mode.

Further, from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken, a post-operation mode image is displayed for 1000 ms, which is the state after the push button 31B has been operated by the player (post-operation mode image display period). Since the after-operation mode image is an image that is displayed with priority over the white-out image 006SG303, the player can visually recognize the operation mode image for 1000 ms from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken. .

In addition, in the cut-in effect, a cut-in effect sound corresponding to the cut-in effect is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 3000 ms from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A (cut-in effect sound output period). . Note that in the cut-in performance, unlike the weak development performance, etc., the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken is not output, so that the user can enjoy the cracking performance unique to the cut-in performance. Furthermore, the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken may be output in the cut-in effect.In this case, by setting the priority of the cut-in effect sound high, the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken may be output. The output may be limited.

Furthermore, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the super reach β background image until the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the light emission of the game effect lamp 9 will be controlled according to the display of the super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084). The light emission data table for cracking effect (whiteout 1000ms) is displayed for 1000ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A to the end timing of the latter half of the whiteout display period. By using the light emission data table for cut-in effect, light emission mainly consisting of white light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to the crack effect, and from the end timing of the late white-out display period to the end timing of the suggested image display period. By using this, light emission other than mainly white light emission is performed in a manner corresponding to the cut-in effect. In addition, after the light emission is finished in the mode corresponding to the cut-in effect, by using the light emission data table for the super reach β background image again, the mode corresponding to the display of the super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084) is changed. Light emission that is not primarily white light emission occurs.

As shown in FIG. 71, FIG. 82(A), FIG. 67, and FIG. 68, as a success pattern result notification effect, first, as a preliminary operation, a falling operation of the movable body 32 is performed for 500 ms. fall period). When the falling operation of the movable body 32 is completed (500 ms have passed), a crack is displayed for 500 ms in the display area of the image display device 5 (crack display period). In this crack display period, the motion effect corresponding to the fall of the movable body 32 is displayed for 100 ms from the start timing of the crack display period, and the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A. The small fragment image 006SG302A, which is also small in size, is displayed for 200 ms. In addition, the small fragment image 006SG302A in the result notification performance (success pattern/failure pattern) and the small fragment image 006SG302A in the reach suggestion performance etc. have different values of the "strength" and "repetition" parameters shown in FIG. It is designed to vary in speed, size, and number of small fragment images. In addition, since the values of the "strength" and "repetition" parameters are different between the small fragment image 006SG302A in the result notification presentation (success pattern) and the small fragment image 006SG302A in the result notification presentation (failure pattern), the scattering speed and small fragments are different. Each image is designed to have a different size and number.

Next, when the timing of glass plate image 006SG301A breaking comes, the super reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088) corresponding to the reach effect of super reach α that has been displayed up to that time or the super reach α background image (image 006SG088 for weak S reach effect) corresponding to the reach effect of super reach The super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084) corresponding to the reach effect is updated to the jackpot notification background image (fifth background image 006SG085) that indicates that the variable display result is a jackpot, and the fragments remain for 1500ms. Image 006SG302 is displayed (fragment image display period). Although not particularly shown in FIG. 82(A), the jackpot notification background image is displayed for 10,000 ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, and after 10,000 ms (the variable display stop timing of the variable display) ) is updated to the normal background image (first background image 006SG081), and then updated to the jackpot game background image according to the jackpot game state from the variable display stop timing of the variable display.

Furthermore, from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, after the whiteout image 006SG303 for hiding the above-mentioned broken image 006SG302 from the player is displayed for 500ms (whiteout display first half period), the whiteout display is Whiteout image 006SG303 having higher transmittance than the earlier period is displayed for 500 ms (whiteout display latter period). For this reason, in the success pattern result notification performance of the present embodiment, in the early whiteout display period of 500 ms from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A breaking, the player is obstructed by the whiteout image 006SG303 and cannot visually recognize the broken image 006SG302. has become impossible. On the other hand, during 1000 ms including the latter period of whiteout display after the first period of whiteout display, the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible to the player as the period in which the fragmented image 006SG302 is visible.

Note that the fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the result notification performance for the success pattern have transparency, and other images (for example, background images) displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 can be seen through these fragment images 006SG302. etc.) are visible to the player.

Note that the movable body 32 rises to the initial position for 1500 ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A (movable body rising period).

In addition, in the result notification performance in the success pattern, a jackpot confirmation sound is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 1500 ms from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A to notify that the jackpot has been confirmed. sound output period). Note that in the result notification performance (success pattern), unlike the weak development performance and the like, the sound effect of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken is not output, so that it is possible to suitably notify that the jackpot has been determined. In addition, the sound effect that the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken may be output in the result notification effect (success pattern). In this case, by setting the priority of the jackpot confirmation sound high, the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken. The output of sound effects may be limited.

In addition, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the super reach α background image or the light emission data table for the super reach β background image until the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A, the light emission data table for the super reach α background image ( Light emission that is not mainly white light emission is performed in a manner that corresponds to the display of the weak S reach effect image 006SG088) and the super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084), and whiteout occurs from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A. By using the light emission data table for the crack effect (whiteout 1000 ms) for 1000 ms up to the end timing of the late display period, light emission, mainly white light, is performed in a manner corresponding to the break effect. Furthermore, after the light emission is completed in a manner corresponding to the breaking effect, by using the light emission data table for the jackpot notification background image, the light emission is performed in a manner according to the display of the jackpot notification background image. In addition, from the stop timing of the variable display, by using the jackpot game light emission data table, light emission mainly including rainbow color light emission is performed in a manner according to the display of the jackpot game background image.

As shown in FIG. 82(B), in the result notification performance for the failure pattern, the fall of the movable body 32 and the cracks accompanying the fall of the movable body 32 are not displayed, and the cracks in the glass plate image 006SG301A for the success pattern are not displayed. From this timing, a crack is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 for 5500 ms (crack display period). In addition, from the start timing of the crack display period, the super reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088) or the super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084), which had been displayed in color until then, becomes variable. This is an image indicating that the display result is a failure, and is updated to a monochrome failure notification background image. The display of the deviation notification background image continues until the end of the crack display period, and is updated to a color eye-catching image at the end of the crack display period. The display period of the eye-catch image is, for example, 1000 ms, and after the display period of the eye-catch image ends, a normal background image (first background image 006SG081) in color like the eye-catch image is displayed. is started. In other words, in the failure pattern result notification performance in this embodiment, after the variable display result is notified by displaying the monochrome failure notification background image, the color eye-catching image and the normal background image (the first background image 006SG081) is now displayed.

In addition, in the result notification performance for the failure pattern, a crack effect sound corresponding to the crack is output from the speakers 8L and 8R for 500 ms from the start timing of the above-mentioned crack display period (crack effect sound output period).

In addition, regarding the light emission of the game effect lamp 9, by using the light emission data table for the super reach α background image or the light emission data table for the super reach β background image until the start timing of the crack display period, the light emission data table for the super reach α background image (weak Light emission that is not mainly white light emission is performed in a manner that corresponds to the display of the S reach effect image 006SG088) and the super reach β background image (4th background image 006SG084), and the variable display stops from the start timing of the crack display period. At this timing, by using the light emission data table for the failure notification background image, light emission, mainly white light emission, is performed in a manner corresponding to the display of the failure notification background image. In addition, from the stop timing of the variable display, by using the normal background image light emission data table, light emission that is not mainly white light emission is performed in a manner that corresponds to the display of the normal background image (first background image 006SG081). . Note that the light emission data table for the crack effect (whiteout 1000ms) and the light emission data table for the deviation notification background image are both light emission data tables that execute light emission mainly using white light. White light emission based on the light emission data table for white out (1000ms) is executed including a blinking pattern that alternates high brightness white light emission and low brightness white light emission, whereas white light emission based on the light emission data table for white out White light emission is performed without including a blinking pattern.

In addition, in this embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, the strong development effect A, In the strong development effect B, the cut-in effect, and the result notification effect, the display of the white-out image 006SG303 is started from the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A (the display start timing of the broken image 006SG302). The whiteout image 006SG303 in each effect may start displaying at a timing earlier than the cracking timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A (display start timing of the fragment image 006SG302).

(Fragment speed when performing cracking effect)
Next, the above-mentioned first continuous cracking effect, second continuous breaking effect, dialogue preview effect, background change effect A, background change effect B, pseudo continuous effect, reach suggestion effect, weak development effect, strong development effect A, strong development effect. The display speed of the broken image 006SG302 of the glass plate image 006SG301A that is displayed when the cracking effect is executed as effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect will be explained.

As shown in FIG. 83(A), among these performances, the first consecutive breaking performance, the second consecutive breaking performance, the dialogue preview performance, the background change performance A, the background change performance B, the pseudo continuous performance, the reach suggestion performance, and the weak development. The broken image 006SG302 of the glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed when performing the cracking effect as the effect, the strong development effect A, or the result notification effect, is displayed throughout the broken image display period including the early white-out display period and the late white-out display period. It is displayed moving at a constant speed V1 (normal motion).

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 83(B), the broken image 006SG302 of the glass plate image 006SG301A, which is displayed when the strong development effect B and the cracking effect as the cut-in effect are executed, is different from the white-out display early period and the white-out display period. While it is displayed moving at a speed of V1 for 1000ms with the latter period, during the fragment image display period after the whiteout display latter period (2000ms for strong development effect B, 1500ms for cut-in effect). , and is displayed moving at a speed V0 (slow motion) that is lower than the speed V1. Note that as the effects in which the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed at the speed V0, strong development effect B and cut-in effect are shown in FIG. 83, but background change effect B and strong development effect A are also as described below. The fragment image 006SG302 is displayed moving at a speed of V0, and when indicating to the player that the expectation of a jackpot is high, the fragment image 006SG302 in the background change effect B and strong development effect A is displayed moving at a speed of V1. It is also decided to move and display at a speed V0 at a high rate.

(Details of cracking effect)
Next, details of the crack effect will be explained based on FIGS. 84 and 85. FIG. 84 is a diagram showing a crack pattern in the crack effect. FIG. 85 is a diagram showing a display example of each crack pattern.

As shown in FIGS. 84 and 85, in the cracking effect executed in various effects, at a predetermined cracking timing, something appears from the rear side at approximately the center position of the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area. A crack in which a crack starts under the settings where an impact (force) is applied, and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 that imitate at least a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A are scattered in the layer 5 image drawing area where the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed. The image is now displayed as an animation. That is, the cracking effect is an effect in which the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area changes to the broken image 006SG302, thereby displaying the glass plate image 006SG301A in a broken state (fragmented state). In this embodiment, the glass plate image 006SG301A is started to crack when a sphere collides with it from the rear at a substantially central position.

Note that the animation display in which the glass plate breaks and the fragment images scatter is actually composed of a number of still images (for example, about 30 to 100 frames) depending on the fragment image display period, but in FIG. Five still images are extracted from among the plurality of still images that make up the animation display of broken fragment images from the start to the end, and are arranged in chronological order. In addition, in FIG. 85, the five-frame images of each crack pattern are not five consecutive frames, but actually a plurality of fragment images (not shown) are arranged between each frame.

There are various ways of breaking when the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks, and multiple types of cracking patterns (for example, cracking patterns A to G) are set in advance, and the performance control CPU 120 can break the glass plate image 006SG301A according to the type of performance to be executed. It is possible to perform a cracking effect based on a preset cracking pattern.

Specifically, cracking pattern A is a pattern corresponding to background change effect A and reach suggestion effect, cracking pattern B is a pattern corresponding to background change effect B and strong development effect B, and cracking pattern C is a pattern corresponding to background change effect B and strong development effect B. , is a pattern corresponding to a pseudo continuous performance and a result notification performance (jackpot), a crack pattern D is a pattern corresponding to a first continuous crack performance, a second continuous crack performance, and a dialogue preview performance, and a crack pattern E is, The cracking pattern F is a pattern corresponding to a weak development effect, the cracking pattern F is a pattern corresponding to a strong development effect A, and the cracking pattern G is a pattern corresponding to a cut-in effect.

Each of the crack patterns A to G is different in at least one of the following items: "acting entity," "crack mode," "crack range," and "fragment image display mode." Note that the display period, display timing, etc. are as described in FIGS. 70 and 71, and therefore their description will be omitted below.

"Agent" indicates the actor who acts on the glass plate image 006SG301A. For crack patterns A and E, the crack effect is executed according to the action of the "character", and for crack patterns C and F, the action of the "movable body" is performed. A cracking effect is executed according to the splitting pattern B and D, and the breaking effect is executed at a predetermined timing regardless of the actor. "Crack mode" indicates whether or not the glass plate image 006SG301A changes to a crack mode before it breaks, and for crack patterns A to D, the crack effect is executed after the "crack mode" is displayed, and the crack pattern In E to G, the crack effect is executed without the "crack mode" being displayed. Note that the "crack mode" includes a plurality of types of modes in which the display position on the display screen, the number of displays, the shape of the crack, etc. are different. The "crack range" is the range in which the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks, and the crack patterns A to C and E to G are the "whole" display screen, and the crack pattern D is "part". "Fragment image display mode" indicates whether or not the fragment image 006SG302 is in a transparent mode, and a part of crack pattern B and crack pattern E are set as "non-transparent", and other crack patterns are set as "transparent". .

In this embodiment, the glass plate image 006SG301A, the glass plate image 006SG301, and the fragment image 006SG302 are set to be illuminated with light (illumination) from the near side of the approximate center of the display screen. Therefore, since the "non-transparent" fragment image 006SG302 reflects light, it becomes difficult to visually recognize the lower layer image drawing area, and the "transparent" fragment image 006SG302 has a shape that reflects light, making it difficult to see the lower layer image drawing area. , when the incident angle of the irradiated light on the glass surface is large (45 degrees to 90 degrees), the light is easily transmitted without being reflected, making it easier to see the lower layer image drawing area, while the second At an angle of (for example, a small angle where the incident angle of the irradiated light with respect to the glass surface is less than 45 degrees), the light is reflected and difficult to pass through, making it difficult to visually recognize the lower layer image drawing area (Figure 94 reference). For example, among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 at a specific timing within the fragment image display period, the first fragment image 006SG302 is displayed at a first angle, the second fragment image 006SG302 is displayed at a second angle, and then When a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 are displayed moving over time, the first fragment image 006SG302 is displayed at a second angle, and the second fragment image 006SG302 is displayed at a first angle. Note that the type, intensity, color, vertical and horizontal positions, depth position, etc. of this light can be changed in various settings, and the setting values regarding the light may be changed depending on the crack pattern.

Furthermore, the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 displayed when the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken include a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 having different shapes, sizes, thicknesses, and the like. Further, each fragment image 006SG302 moves while rotating in various directions, at various speeds, and in various orientations during the display period from when the display starts until it ends and becomes non-display. Specifically, those that are displayed in a manner that moves in the X-axis direction (horizontal direction), those that are displayed in a manner that they move in the Y-axis direction (vertical direction), and those that are displayed in a manner that they move in the Y-axis direction (vertical direction), and those that are displayed in a manner that they move in the Z-axis direction (front-back direction). There are some that are displayed in a manner that they move towards the target, and others that have different moving speeds, rotational speeds, number of rotations, display periods, etc. Regarding the direction of movement, it is possible to move not only in one direction among the X, Y, and Z axes, but also in multiple axes among the X, Y, and Z axes (for example, the XY-axis direction and the XY-axis direction). Including those moving towards the target.

In other words, each of the crack patterns A to G includes at least one of the plurality of pieces when the fragment image 006SG302 is scattered, in addition to the items of the above-mentioned "acting subject", "crack mode", "crack range", and "fragment image display mode". The display mode such as the shape, size, rotation speed, rotation speed, movement direction [X axis (left/right direction), Y axis (vertical direction), Z axis (front/back direction)], movement speed, and display period of the fragment image 006SG302. At least one of them is a different pattern.

In addition, the cracking patterns A to G are cracking animations created using, for example, the shutter function of a predetermined animation creation software, and the created cracking patterns A to G are based on multiple parameters shown below. The numerical values of at least some of the parameters are different.

To briefly explain each parameter shown in FIG. 84, "gravity" allows setting of gravity, and adjusts the acceleration at which the scattered fragments gradually fall. Because of gravity, it is not constant but gradually accelerates downward. The "gravity direction" can set the direction in which gravity is applied, and can specify up, down, left, and right directions based on 0 degrees (upward direction). The "gravity gradient" allows gravity to be adjusted closer in the Z-axis direction (front-back direction), and the value set with this parameter is combined with the "direction of gravity." It is possible to specify all directions in 3D space: front and back, top, bottom, left and right. Note that for values of "-90" and "90", since the direction is the Z-axis direction, the "direction of gravity" is essentially treated as invalid. "Intensity" allows you to adjust the force of the flying debris; increasing the value will increase the flying speed of the debris. "Amount of variation" allows you to adjust the degree to which the size of the fragments affects the animation. Normally, in the real world, when the same physical impact is applied, it takes more energy to move large and heavy objects. Therefore, if the same impact is applied, small objects will move or rotate faster, and larger, heavier objects will move slower. The difference in physical animation depending on the size of the fragments can be adjusted from 0% to 100%; at 0%, size and weight are not taken into account, so small and large fragments will move in the same way. Note that the default setting of 30% is considered to be a value close to the physical laws of nature. "Repeat" allows you to adjust the size of the broken pieces; increasing the value will make each piece smaller and increase the number of pieces. "Viscosity" allows you to set the resistance to the movement of fragments, and increasing the value will increase the time it takes for movement and rotation to stop due to resistance. In addition, as if it were attached to a sticky object, resistance is applied to gravity, so the falling speed becomes slower. In other words, when the value of "viscosity" is adjusted to a large value, the movement of the pieces becomes slow motion. Note that FIG. 84 shows crack patterns B, crack pattern E, and crack pattern F as crack patterns in which the value of "viscosity" has been adjusted to be larger than normal, but as will be described later, crack pattern G also has " The value of "Viscosity" has been adjusted to be larger than normal.

The above parameters are just examples, and in addition to the above, there are also "force", which indicates the force applied at the moment that causes the glass plate image 006SG301A to break, and "position", which allows the position of the force to be adjusted in the X-axis and Y-axis directions. ", "Depth" which allows you to adjust the position of the force in the Z-axis direction (depth direction), "Rotation speed" which allows you to set the speed at which each fragment image 006SG302 can rotate, and the degree of randomness in the movement of each fragment image 006SG302. It may also be possible to set a "random degree" or the like that can be set.

Next, the main characteristics of the movement (mainly the scattering mode) of the fragment image 006SG302 in each crack pattern will be briefly described.

For example, for crack patterns A, C to F, the value of "gravity direction" is set to "180°", so after fragment image 006SG302 breaks and scatters to the surrounding area, it naturally moves downward. On the other hand, for crack patterns B and G, the value of "Gravity direction" is set to "0°", so after fragment image 006SG302 breaks and scatters to spread to the surroundings, Compared to crack patterns A, C to F, it is less likely to fall downward.

In this way, crack patterns A, C to F (first pattern) and crack patterns B and G (second pattern) have different "gravitational direction" settings, so crack patterns A, C to F are " 180°'', which means that the direction in which the fragment image 006SG302 moves and is displayed is different. This allows you to create a variety of patterns, increasing your interest.

In addition, for crack patterns A, C to F, the value of "variation amount" is set to "30%", so the fragment image 006SG302 is a small fragment image 006SG302 that moves and rotates quickly, and the large heavy fragment image 006SG302 is is a slow mode, while for crack patterns B and G, the value of “variation amount” is set to “0%”, so in the fragment image 006SG302, small and large pieces are in the same mode with no difference. Therefore, it is considered a cracking pattern with a high degree of animation.

In other words, crack patterns A, C to F are affected by the animation differently depending on their size, with the small fragment image 006SG302 flying quickly and the large fragment image 006SG302 being a little slow and falling quickly, resulting in realistic movement. Crack patterns B and G can be used when you want to show a scene.Crack patterns B and G are all affected by the animation in the same way and fall in the same way regardless of the size, so it is a crack pattern that is suitable depending on the scene. can be selected.

In addition, crack patterns A and C (first pattern) and crack patterns D to F (second pattern) have the same "gravity direction" setting but different "gravity value" settings, so the fragment image The speed at which 006SG302 falls is different. In this way, by varying the numerical value of the parameter "gravity value" and varying the speed at which the fragment image 006SG302 falls, a variety of patterns can be constructed and the interest is improved. More specifically, since the crack patterns D to F have larger numerical values, the fragment images 006SG302 fall faster.

In addition, for the crack patterns A to C, E, and G, the value of "gravity gradient" is set to "0" or more, so that the fragment image 006SG302 moves in the X-axis and Y-axis directions while While the crack patterns D and F are displayed as if they are moving in the axial direction, that is, toward the front, the fragment images are 006SG302 is a mode in which it is displayed only by moving in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction, without moving in the Z-axis direction. In addition, in the crack patterns A to C, E, and G, when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed in a manner that moves toward the front side, the fragment image is displayed in a manner that gradually enlarges, so that It can emphasize that you are getting closer. In particular, for crack patterns B and G, the numerical value of the "gravity gradient" is set to "90", so the fragment images are displayed in a manner that moves further toward the front.

Furthermore, for crack pattern A (first pattern), crack pattern B (second pattern), and crack pattern C (third pattern), for example, the first parameter of "gravity" is "0" in common, and " The second parameter of "strength" is "5" for crack pattern A, "3" for crack pattern B, and "7" for crack pattern C. In this way, by fixing the first parameter and creating a common part for the fragment image 006SG302, and by varying the second parameter to construct a variety of patterns, it is possible to create a stable and diverse fragment image 006SG302. Display patterns can be constructed.

In addition, crack pattern E (first pattern), crack pattern F (second pattern), and crack pattern G (third pattern) are, for example, crack pattern E (first pattern) and crack pattern F (second pattern). The first parameter of "gravity" is "0" in common, and the second parameter of "strength" is "3" for crack pattern E and "5" for crack pattern F, which are different from each other. (2nd pattern) and cracking pattern G (3rd pattern) are different in that the first parameter of "gravity" is "5" for cracking pattern E and "2" for cracking pattern F, and the second parameter of "strength" is "2". "5" is common. In this way, each pattern has a common part for the fragment image 006SG302 and is configured using different parameters, thereby making it possible to construct stable and diverse display patterns for the fragment image 006SG302.

In the present embodiment, a plurality of types of cracking patterns A to G having different numerical values of various parameters are stored in advance, and a cracking effect is executed based on the cracking patterns A to G corresponding to the type of effect to be performed. Although the present invention is not limited to this, for example, when the type of performance to be executed by the performance control CPU 120 is determined based on the start of the variable display, the determined performance may be It is possible to determine the numerical values of various parameters according to the type of item, jackpot expectation level, etc., create breaking animation data based on the determined numerical values, and display an animation display of the glass plate breaking based on the created breaking animation data. You can also use it as

(Display example of crack pattern)
Next, details of display examples of crack patterns A to G will be explained based on FIGS. 86 to 92. FIG. 86 is a diagram illustrating a display example with and without a whiteout image in crack pattern A. FIG. 87 is a diagram showing a display example of crack pattern B with and without a whiteout image. FIG. 88 is a diagram illustrating a display example with and without a whiteout image in crack pattern C. FIG. 89 is a diagram illustrating a display example with and without a whiteout image in crack pattern D. FIG. 90 is a diagram illustrating a display example with and without a whiteout image in crack pattern E. FIG. 91 is a diagram illustrating a display example with and without a whiteout image in the crack pattern F. FIG. 92 is a diagram illustrating a display example with and without a whiteout image in the crack pattern G.

In each of FIGS. 86 to 92, (A1) to (A5) are display examples of crack patterns in the mode of displaying whiteout image 006SG303, and (B1) to (B5) are display examples of crack patterns in the mode of displaying whiteout image 006SG303. This is an example of a display of a crack pattern in a mode in which the whiteout image 006SG303 is not displayed although it is a corresponding image. In other words, this is a diagram comparing a case where the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed and a case where the whiteout image 006SG303 is not displayed at the start of the crack effect. Specifically, in (A1) in each figure, the transmittance of whiteout image 006SG303 is 0%, and the transmittance of whiteout image 006SG303 gradually increases in the order of (A1), (A2), and (A3). In (A4), the transmittance of whiteout image 006SG303 is 100%.

As shown in (B1) to (B5) of FIGS. 86 to 92, in the animation display in which the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks, in the frame at the beginning of the cracking (for example, (B1)), the glass plate image 006SG301A is at approximately the center position. Since the setting is such that the cracking starts when an impact (force) such as a sphere colliding from the rear side is applied, the scattering starts from the fragment image 006SG302 near the center of the glass plate image 006SG301A, but the surrounding area A large number of fragment images 006SG302 have not yet started scattering. In other words, at the stage when the glass plate image 006SG301A, which was displayed over the entire display screen instead of the glass plate image 006SG301 that was hidden at the timing of the cracking, began to change to a broken state, a large number of glass plate images 006SG301A, which were hidden from view at the time of the cracking, filled almost the entire area of the display screen. Since the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed, the images displayed in the lower display layer image drawing area than the glass plate image 006SG301A and the fragment image 006SG302 are almost difficult to see.

Therefore, at the start timing of the cracking effect, as shown in (B1), the glass plate image 006SG301A, which has been displayed for several frames and filling almost the entire display screen, changes to a broken state, and a large number of fragment images 006SG302 are created. Therefore, it becomes difficult to visually recognize the image that was displayed before the cracking effect started. In particular, it is better if the crack effect starts after the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in a cracked manner, as in the case of crack patterns A to D. If the crack effect suddenly starts without being displayed in the crack mode, the image will suddenly be displayed to fill the display screen, as if to drown out the image that was displayed before the crack effect started. Since the glass plate image 006SG301A changes to a broken state and a large number of fragment images 006SG302 are displayed, there is a risk of giving an unnatural impression to the player.

Therefore, at the beginning of cracking, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed in the display layer 7 image drawing area above the fragment image 006SG302 to hide a large number of fragment images 006SG302, as shown in the whiteout display early period of (A1). This can reduce the sense of discomfort when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

In addition, as shown in the latter period of whiteout display in (A2) and (A3), the whiteout image 006SG303 is not suddenly hidden, but is faded out and the transmittance is gradually increased, thereby reducing debris. Since the image 006SG302 becomes visible after it has been moved from the center of the display screen to the surrounding area to some extent, the manner in which the fragmented image 006SG302 breaks and scatters can be made to look natural and natural.

As shown in FIG. 86, in the crack pattern A, the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area starts to break from the center of the screen (see FIG. 86 (B1)), and the fragment image 006SG302 spreads radially. After scattering in the X-axis direction (for example, horizontal direction), Y-axis direction (for example, vertical direction), and Z-axis direction (for example, forward direction) (see Figure 86 (B2)), it falls downward and the main 86 (B3) to (B5)).

As shown in FIG. 87, in the crack pattern B, the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area starts to crack from the center position of the screen (see FIG. 87 (B1)), and the fragment image 006SG302 is broken by normal motion movement. After scattering in the X-axis direction (e.g., horizontal direction), Y-axis direction (e.g., vertical direction), and Z-axis direction (e.g., forward direction) so as to spread radially (see FIG. 87 (B2)), the particles are directed downward. Since it is difficult to fall, it moves in slow motion radially from the center and is displayed frame-out from the top, bottom, left, and right sides (see FIGS. 87 (B3) to (B5)).

As shown in FIG. 88, in the crack pattern C, the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area starts to break from the center of the screen (see FIG. 88 (B1)), and the fragment images 006SG302 spread radially. After scattering in the X-axis direction (for example, horizontal direction), Y-axis direction (for example, vertical direction), and Z-axis direction (for example, forward direction) (see Figure 88 (B2)), it falls downward and the main 88 (B3) to (B5)).

In addition, in this embodiment, when a pseudo continuous effect, a weak development effect, a strong development effect A, and a cut-in effect are executed, a common background effect image 006SG322 is displayed as a background image. The present invention is not limited to this, and although not particularly illustrated, for example, background images may be displayed in different display modes depending on the type of effect.

As shown in FIG. 89, in the crack pattern D, the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area starts to crack from the center of the screen (see FIG. 89 (B1)), and the fragment image 006SG302 spreads radially. After scattering in the X-axis direction (for example, to the right) or the Y-axis direction (for example, to the left) (see Figure 89 (B2)), it falls downward and is displayed as frame-out mainly from the bottom side (Figure 89 (B2)). 89 (B3) to (B5)).

As shown in FIG. 90, in the crack pattern E, the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area starts to crack from the center position of the screen (see FIG. 90 (B1)), and the fragment image 006SG302 is broken by normal motion movement. After scattering in the X-axis direction (for example, horizontal direction), Y-axis direction (for example, vertical direction), and Z-axis direction (for example, forward direction) so as to spread radially (see FIG. 90 (B2)), it moves in slow motion. 90 (B3) to (B5)). Note that the value of the "viscosity" parameter in crack pattern E is adjusted to "0.4", which corresponds to FIGS. 90 (B3) to (B5), and more specifically, The value of the "viscosity" parameter corresponding to 90 (B1) and (B2) is adjusted to "0.1". Further, in FIG. 90 (B1), the movable body 32 is intentionally not shown in order to make it easier to see the beginning of the crack in the glass plate image 006SG301A. In addition, the fragment image 006SG302 in the crack pattern E is displayed moving in slow motion from FIG. 90 (B3), and it takes time to display it out of frame. A super reach α effect may be performed by white-out while moving in slow motion so that it can be visually recognized by the player.

As shown in FIG. 91, in the crack pattern F, the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area starts to crack from the center of the screen (see FIG. 91 (B1)), and the fragment image 006SG302 is broken by normal motion movement. After scattering radially in the X-axis direction (e.g., rightward) and Y-axis direction (e.g., leftward) (see Figure 91 (B2)), the main body falls downward in slow motion. 91 (B3) to (B5)). Further, since the small fragment image 006SG302 moves and rotates quickly, it falls first and is displayed out of frame, whereas the large, heavy fragment image 006SG302 is slow, so it is displayed out of frame after the small fragment image 006SG302.

In addition, if a cracking effect occurs during the strong S reach effect, the reduced decorative pattern at the top right of the display screen in the reach mode will be temporarily hidden, and will be displayed again when the fragment image 006SG302 in the breaking effect is hidden. By doing so, it is possible to omit as much display as possible that is not related to the cracking effect, and to enhance the effect of the cracking effect. In addition, when a cracking effect occurs not only during the strong S reach effect but also during other reach effects such as the weak S reach effect, the reduced decorative pattern of the reach mode is temporarily hidden, and the fragment image in the corresponding cracking effect is temporarily hidden. 006SG302 may be displayed again when it becomes hidden.

As shown in FIG. 92, in the crack pattern G, the glass plate image 006SG301A displayed in the layer 5 image drawing area starts to crack from the center position of the screen (see FIG. 92 (B1)), and the fragment image 006SG302 is broken by normal motion movement. After scattering in the X-axis direction (e.g., horizontal direction), Y-axis direction (e.g., vertical direction), and Z-axis direction (e.g., forward direction) so as to spread radially (see FIG. 92 (B2)), the particles are directed downward. Since it is difficult to fall, it moves in slow motion radially from the center and is displayed frame-out from the top, bottom, left, and right sides (see FIGS. 92 (B3) to (B5)). Note that the value of the "viscosity" parameter in crack pattern G is adjusted to "0.1", which corresponds to FIGS. 92 (B1) and (B2), and more specifically, The value of the "viscosity" parameter corresponding to 92 (B3) to (B5) is adjusted to "0.4".

(Details of fragment image)
Next, details of the fragment image will be explained based on FIGS. 93 and 94. FIG. 93 is a diagram showing a fragment image displayed in (A) a pseudo continuous effect and (B) in a cut-in effect. FIG. 94 is a diagram showing fragment images displayed in (A) background change effect A and (B) strong development effect B. Note that the fragment image indicated by a dotted line in FIG. 94 indicates that it is not displayed.

As shown in FIG. 93(A), the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the pseudo continuous effect is in a non-transparent mode (for example, the transmittance 0%), on the other hand, as shown in FIG. 93(B), the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect recognizes at least part of the background effect image 006SG322 and character image 006SG307 that are in a superimposed relationship. Since the image is in a transparent mode (for example, 100% transmittance) that allows the fragmentation image to be displayed, even if the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed in the same way, it can give a suitably different impression and increase the interest in the game. can.

Further, as shown in FIG. 93(B), the first fragment image 006SG302 among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 in the cut-in effect is an image in a transparent mode in which at least a part of the background effect image 006SG322 can be recognized. (the background is transparent), the second fragment image 006SG302 is an image in a transparent mode (the characters are transparent) that allows at least part of the character image 006SG307 (special image) to be recognized, and the third fragment image The image 006SG302 is a transparent image (the background and text are transparent) that allows recognition of at least a portion of the background effect image 006SG322 and at least a portion of the character image 006SG307. By changing the display mode of images, the effect of each performance can be enhanced.

Next, as shown in FIG. 94(A), all the fragment images 006SG302 among the fragment images in the background change effect A are moved downward to the outside of the display screen of the image display device 5 and framed. While the first fragment image 006SG302 out of the fragment images 006SG302 in the strong development effect B is hidden in an out-display mode, as shown in FIG. The second fragment image 006SG302, which is hidden by moving vertically and horizontally and displayed out of frame, and which is different from the first fragment image 006SG302, moves toward the outside of the display screen on the display screen of the image display device 5. By being hidden from the front, it is possible to make a difference in how the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed between the background change effect A and the strong development effect B, thereby increasing interest.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 94(A), the fragment image 006SG302 is rotated at a first angle (for example, an angle where the plane faces the front side), and the incident angle of the irradiation light on the glass surface is 45 degrees to 90 degrees. When the angle of the fragment image 006SG302 is a large angle), it becomes possible to recognize at least a part of the background image that is in a superimposed relationship with the fragment image 006SG302, and the rotation operation causes the fragment image 006SG302 to move to a second angle smaller than the first angle. (for example, a small angle at which the incident angle of the irradiated light on the glass surface is less than 45 degrees, such as an angle where the end face faces the front side), at least one of the background images in a superimposed relationship with the fragment image 006SG302. It becomes difficult to recognize the parts. By doing so, it is possible to enhance the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

Further, as shown in FIG. 94(A), when the first fragment image among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 is at the first angle, the second fragment image is at the second angle, so that the fragment image The presentation effect when displaying 006SG302 can be enhanced.

It has layer 10 image drawing area for. In addition, a layer 11 image drawing area for drawing and arranging an error display may be further arranged.

Note that unless a layer 11 image drawing area is further arranged in the VRAM area, the image drawn in the layer 10 image drawing area is the image with the highest display priority in the image display device 5, and the layer 9 image drawing area is the image drawn in the layer 10 image drawing area. The image drawn in the layer 8 image drawing area has a lower display priority on the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the layer 10 image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 8 image drawing area is a layer 9 image. The image has a lower display priority in the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the layer 7 image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 7 image drawing area has a lower display priority than the image drawn in the layer 8 image drawing area. The image has a lower display priority on the display device 5, and the image drawn in the layer 6 image drawing area has a lower display priority on the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the layer 7 image drawing area. Yes, the image drawn in the layer 5 image drawing area has a lower display priority on the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the layer 6 image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 4 image drawing area has a lower display priority than the image drawn in the layer 6 image drawing area. The image drawn in the layer 5 image drawing area has a lower display priority on the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the layer 5 image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 3 image drawing area is drawn in the layer 4 image drawing area. The image drawn in the layer 2 image drawing area has a lower display priority on the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the layer 3 image drawing area. This is an image with a low priority, and the image drawn in the layer 1 image drawing area has a lower display priority on the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the layer 2 image drawing area. Furthermore, although it has been explained that there is a layer 1 image drawing area for drawing and arranging the background image, as a substitute for the layer 1 image drawing area, a layer 1-1 image drawing area, a layer 1-2 image drawing area, a layer 1-2 image drawing area, It may also have layer 1-3 image drawing areas. In this case, a normal background image (first background image 006SG081, sixth background image) can be drawn in the layer 1-1 image drawing area, and a chance background image (second background image) can be drawn in the layer 1-2 image drawing area. Background image 006SG082, 7th background image), normal reach background image, super reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088), super reach β background image (4th background image 006SG084) can be drawn, and layer 1- A background effect image (background effect image 006SG322) and a jackpot notification background image (5th background image 006SG085) can be drawn in the 3rd image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 1-3 image drawing area is layer 2. The image has a lower display priority in the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 1-2 image drawing area is not drawn in the layer 1-3 image drawing area. The image has a lower display priority in the image display device 5 than the image drawn in the layer 1-1 image drawing area, and the image drawn in the layer 1-1 image drawing area has a lower display priority than the image drawn in the layer 1-2 image drawing area. This is an image with a low display priority in No. 5.

Here, as shown in FIGS. 44 to 47, the background change effect A and the strong development effect A are effects that can be executed at different timings. Further, as shown in FIG. 74, the background change effect A includes a crack display period in which a crack is displayed when a character acts on the glass plate image 006SG301 displayed in the display area of the image display device 5, and a glass plate The glass plate image 006SG301A displayed instead of the image 006SG301 is broken and a fragment image display period is displayed, and a fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.As shown in FIG. This is an effect in which the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken and a fragmented image 006SG302 is displayed in a shorter period than the background change effect due to the operation.

Furthermore, the background change effect A is displayed on the image display device 5 before the crack is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 and after the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken and the display of the fragment image 006SG302 is started. The strong development performance A is a performance that changes the background image of the image display device 5 before the strong development performance A is executed and after the display of the fragment image 006SG302 in the strong development performance A starts. This is an effect that changes the background images displayed in the . In other words, in this embodiment, background change effect A is used to display the crack and fragment image 006SG302 in the display area of the image display device 5, and background change effect A is used to display the fragment image 006SG302 without any cracks being displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301. By being able to execute the development effect A at different timings, it is possible to surprise the player at various timings, and furthermore, the fragment image 006SG302 is common to the background change effect A and the strong development effect A. Since the types of background images displayed before and after the display are different, even if the fragment image 006SG302 is similarly displayed, it gives suitably different impressions to the player and increases the interest in the game. be able to.

[Form 1-2]
In addition, if background change effect A and strong development effect A can be executed during the variable display of 1, the background change effect is better when strong development effect A is executed without background change effect A. The ratio of being controlled to the jackpot game state may be higher than when performance A is executed and strong development performance A is executed (for example, see FIGS. 44 to 47). By doing so, it is possible to draw attention to the execution status of the background change effect A and the strong development effect A, and increase interest.

[Form 1-3]
In addition, when the background image changes from the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) to the chance background image (second background image 006SG082), in addition to the case where the background image changes via background change effect A, It is also possible to provide a case where the game goes through different chance background stimulation effects (FIG. 41). Also, when the background image changes from a normal background image (first background image 006SG081) to a chance background image (second background image 006SG082) via background change effect A, it is better to change the background image via background change effect A to a chance background image (second background image 006SG082). The ratio of being controlled to the jackpot game state may be higher than when the background image changes from the normal background image (first background image 006SG081) to the chance background image (second background image 006SG082). By doing so, it is possible to draw attention to whether the chance background image (second background image 006SG082) is displayed by either the background change effect A or the chance background stimulation effect, thereby increasing interest.

[Form 1-4-1]
In addition, if background change effect A and strong development effect A can be executed during the variable display of 1, the strong development effect is better when background change effect A is executed before strong development effect A is executed. Before the execution of A, the ratio of being controlled to the jackpot game state may be higher than when the background change effect A is not executed (for example, see FIGS. 44 to 47). By doing so, it is possible to increase interest by making the user expect that both the background change effect A and the strong development effect A will be executed during the first variable display.

[Form 1-4-2]
As shown in FIGS. 74 and 79, during variable display, background change effect A is an effect executed before the reach timing of the decorative symbol, and strong development effect A is an effect executed after the reach timing of the decorative symbol. It is. In addition, the images displayed as background images in the display area of the image display device 5 include a normal background image (first background image 006SG081) and a chance background image (first 2 background image 006SG082), a super reach α background image (weak S reach effect image 006SG088) indicating that the reach effect of super reach α is being executed, and a background image indicating that the reach effect of super reach β is being executed. The super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084) shown in FIG. Fragment image 006SG302 in background change effect A is an image displayed together with the chance background image (second background image 006SG082), and fragment image 006SG302 in strong development effect A is the super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084). ), it is possible to draw the player's attention to the relationship between the background change effect A and the strong development effect A, thereby increasing the player's interest in the game.

[Form 1-4-3]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 70 and 71, since the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the background change effect A has transparency, the chance background that is in a superimposed relationship with the fragment image 006SG302 can be seen through the fragment image 006SG302. It is possible for the player to recognize at least a part of the image (second background image 006SG082), and since the background image displayed in strong development effect A does not have transparency, the fragment image 006SG302 Since it is impossible for the player to recognize at least a part of the super reach β background image (fourth background image 006SG084) that is in a superimposed relationship with the fragment image 006SG302 through the fragment image 006SG302 in these background change effects A. It is possible to enhance the display and the effect of the strong development effect A.

[Form 1-4-4]
Further, as shown in FIG. 100, when the fragment image 006SG302 is rotated, when the fragment image 006SG302 reaches the first angle due to the rotation operation, the player can see at least part of the background image through the fragment image 006SG302. However, when the fragment image 006SG302 is at the second angle due to the rotation operation, it is difficult for the player to recognize at least part of the background image through the fragment image 006SG302. good. By doing so, it is possible to enhance the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

[Form 1-4-5]
Further, as shown in FIG. 100, when rotating the fragment image 006SG302, when the first fragment image 006SG302 among the plural fragment images 006SG302 becomes the first angle, one of the plural fragment images 006SG302 The second fragment image 006SG302 may be at a second angle. By doing so, it is possible to enhance the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

[Form 1-5]
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 95, when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed moving in multiple directions including the X-axis direction and the Z-axis direction, the fragment image 006SG302 moving in the Z-axis direction is The period required for the fragment image 006SG302 to be hidden in the display area of the image display device 5 may be longer than that for the fragment image 006SG302 moving in the axial direction. By doing so, it is possible to enhance the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

[Form 1-6]
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 83, the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the background change effect A and the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the strong development effect A both exhibit speed changes from the start of display to the timing of the end of display. Since the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed moving without accompanying movement, the fragment image 006SG302 can be displayed naturally without any discomfort in these background change effect A and strong development effect A.

[Form 1-7-1]
The fragment image 006SG302 in the background change effect A and the fragment image 006SG302 in the strong development effect A commonly move toward a plurality of directions including at least a predetermined direction (for example, the X-axis direction) and a specific direction (for example, the Z-axis direction). The fragment image 006SG302 in the background change effect A and the fragment image 006SG302 in the strong development effect A have the same period of time until they become invisible on the display screen (see FIGS. 86 and 91). By doing so, the relationship between the background change effect A and the strong development effect A increases, and the effect of both effects can be enhanced.

[Form 1-7-2]
The visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 that is displayed moving in a specific direction (for example, the Z-axis direction) differs depending on when the display starts and the timing before it becomes hidden on the display screen (Fig. 86, 91). Specifically, it is difficult to visually recognize the fragment image 006SG302 when the display starts, but it is easy to visually recognize the fragment image 006SG302 before it is hidden, thereby increasing the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

[Form 1-7-3]
The fragment image 006SG302 that moves and displays in a specific direction (for example, the Z-axis direction) is hidden on the display screen than the fragment image 006SG302 that moves and displays in a specific direction (for example, the Z-axis direction) in background change effect A. By lengthening the period required for this to occur, the fragment image 006SG302 can be displayed naturally.

[Form 1-8]
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 100, when the fragment image 006SG302 is rotated in the background change effect A and the strong development effect A, the first fragment image 006SG302 among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 in the background change effect A is displayed. The number of rotation operations from when the second fragment image 006SG302 among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 in strong development effect A is displayed until it becomes hidden in the display area of the image display device 5 The number of rotation operations until the display area becomes non-display may be the same. By doing so, the relationship between the background change effect A and the strong development effect A is increased, and the effect of both effects can be enhanced.

[Form 2-1]
Further, as shown in FIGS. 74 and 79, in both the background change effect A and the strong development effect A, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed from the timing when the display of the fragment image 006SG302 starts. The display period of white-out image 006SG303 in these background change effects A and strong development effect A is the first half of the white-out display period in which the player cannot see the fragment image 006SG302 in the white-out image 006SG303, and the white-out display period in which the player cannot see the fragment image 006SG302 in the white-out image 006SG303. Since it consists of a white-out display latter period during which the person can visually recognize the fragment image 006SG302, the background change effect A and the strong development effect A can be executed at different timings, so that they can be displayed at various times. In addition to being able to surprise the player, the whiteout image 006SG303 can reduce the sense of discomfort when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed, and the background change effect A and strong development effect can be suitably executed. .

[Form 2-2]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 74 and 79, the display period of the whiteout image 006SG303 in the background change effect A (early whiteout display period and late whiteout display period) is 1000 ms, whereas the strong development effect The display period of whiteout image 006SG303 in A (early whiteout display period and late whiteout display period) is 2500 ms, so by displaying whiteout image 006SG303, background change effect A and strong development effect A are As the relevance increases, the display period of the whiteout image 006SG303 is different between the background change effect A and the strong development effect A, so it is possible to enhance the effect of both the background change effect A and the strong development effect A. can.

[Form 2-3]
Furthermore, regarding the background change effect A shown in FIG. ) may be shorter than the crack display period and the fragment image display period. By doing so, the display of the fragment image 006SG302 can be started with the whiteout image 006SG303 without any discomfort.

[Form 2-4]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 56 and 63, a whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed from the display start timing of the fragment image 006SG302 in the background change effect A, and a whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed from the display start timing of the fragment image 006SG302 in the strong development effect A. Since the whiteout image 006SG303 is an image that is displayed in the same manner, the relationship between the background change effect A and the strong development effect A in which the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed in the same manner is increased, and both The performance effect can be enhanced.

[Form 3-1]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 76 and 81, the pseudo-continuous effect and the cut-in effect of this embodiment are effects that have different execution timings during the variable display. It can give you a surprise. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 83, the fragmented image 006SG302 in the pseudo-continuous effect is displayed moving at a speed of V1 regardless of the progress of the effect, while the fragmented image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect is displayed as it moves depending on the progress of the effect. Since the speed changes from the speed V1 to the lower speed V0, even if the fragment image 006SG302 is similarly displayed, a suitably different impression can be given to the player, and the interest in the game can be increased. .

[Form 3-2]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 44 to 47, if the pseudo-continuous effect can be executed multiple times in variable display 1, but the cut-in effect can be executed only once, the pseudo-continuous effect can be executed multiple times. When the cut-in effect is executed, the proportion of control to the jackpot game state is higher than when the pseudo-continuous effect is executed only once, and when the cut-in effect is executed once, the probability of being controlled to the jackpot game state is higher than when the pseudo-continuous effect is executed once. The ratio of being controlled to the jackpot game state may be higher than when the game is executed twice. By doing so, it is possible to draw attention to the execution status of the pseudo continuous effect and the cut-in effect, and increase interest.

The whiteout image 006SG303 (effect image of a specific color) can be displayed in common at the two timings, and the display pattern of the whiteout image 006SG303 is different between the first timing and the second timing. Specifically, at the first timing, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed spreading from the center of the display screen to the periphery, and at the second timing, it is displayed over the entire area of the display screen (FIG. 59(C), FIG. 66 (C)), the display pattern of the white-out image 006SG303 can be made different between the pseudo continuous effect and the cut-in effect, thereby increasing the interest.

[Form 3-4-1]
Further, as shown in FIG. 83, the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect is displayed moving at a speed V1 during the display period of the whiteout image 006SG303 (early whiteout display period and late whiteout display period), and the whiteout image 006SG302 is displayed moving at speed V1. Since the image 006SG303 is moved and displayed at a speed V0 lower than the speed V1 from the timing when the display period of the image 006SG303 ends, it is possible to enhance the effect of displaying the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 100, in the case where the fragment image 006SG302 in the pseudo continuous effect and the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect can be rotated, the first fragment among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 in the pseudo continuous effect The number of rotation operations performed from when the image 006SG302 is displayed until it is hidden in the display area of the image display device 5 is longer than the number of times the second fragment image 006SG302 is displayed among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 in the cut-in effect. The number of rotation operations may be greater than the number of times the rotation operation is performed from the time the image is displayed until the image becomes non-display in the display area of the image display device 5. By doing so, it is possible to enhance the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

[Form 4-1]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 76 and 81, the pseudo-continuous effect and the cut-in effect of this embodiment are effects that have different execution timings during the variable display. It can give you a surprise. Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 70 and 71, since the fragment images 006SG302 displayed as a pseudo continuous effect do not have transparency, the player can see the fragment images 006SG302 displayed on the image display device 5. While the background image is not visible, the fragmented images 006SG302 displayed as a cut-in effect are transparent, so the player can see the background image displayed on the image display device 5 through these fragmented images 006SG302. is visible, so even if the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed in the same way in the pseudo continuous performance and the cut-in performance, it gives suitably different impressions to the player and increases the interest in the game. I can do it.

[Form 4-2]
The first fragment image 006SG302 among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 in the pseudo continuous effect is an image in a transparent mode that allows at least part of the background effect image 006SG322 to be recognized, and the second fragment image 006SG302 is a character image. It is an image in a transparent mode in which at least a part of the image 006SG307 can be recognized, and the third fragment image 006SG302 among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 in the cut-in effect is a combination of at least a part of the background effect image 006SG322 and a character image. This is a transparent image in which at least a portion of 006SG307 can be recognized (see FIG. 93). By changing the display mode of the fragment image 006SG302 for each performance in this way, the performance effect of each performance can be enhanced.

[Form 4-3-1]
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 100, in the case where the fragment image 006SG302 in the pseudo continuous effect and the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect can be rotated, the rotation movement causes the first fragment image 006SG302 to rotate at the first angle. If this happens, it becomes possible to recognize at least a part of the background image that is in a superimposed relationship with the fragment image 006SG302, and if the first fragment image 006SG302 becomes at the second angle due to the rotation operation, the fragment image 006SG302 It may become difficult to recognize at least a portion of the background image that is in a superimposed relationship with the background image. By doing so, it is possible to enhance the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

Further, as shown in FIG. 100, in the case where the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect is rotatable, the first fragment image 006SG302 among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 is rotated at the first angle in the cut-in effect. Sometimes, a second fragment image 006SG302 among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 may be at a second angle. By doing so, it is possible to enhance the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 76 and 81, the pseudo-continuous effect and the cut-in effect of this embodiment are effects that have different execution timings during the variable display. It can give you a surprise. Furthermore, regarding these pseudo continuous effects and cut-in effects, the cut-in effects include at least one of the glass plate images 006SG301A that is displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301 after a crack is displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301 in the pseudo continuous effects. The display starts displaying a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 in a period shorter than the crack display period until the fragment image 006SG302 that partially imitates is displayed, and the fragment image 006SG302 in the pseudo continuous effect and the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect are created.

The visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 that is displayed moving in a specific direction (for example, the Z-axis direction) differs depending on when the display starts and the timing before it becomes hidden on the display screen (FIG. 88, 92). Specifically, it is difficult to visually recognize the fragment image 006SG302 when the display starts, but it is easy to visually recognize the fragment image 006SG302 before it is hidden, thereby increasing the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed.

[Form 5-3]
The fragment image 006SG302 that moves and displays in a specific direction (for example, the Z-axis direction) is hidden on the display screen than the fragment image 006SG302 that moves and displays in a specific direction (for example, the Z-axis direction) in background change effect A. By lengthening the period required for this to occur, the fragment image 006SG302 can be displayed naturally.

[Form 5-4]
All the fragment images 006SG302 of the fragment images 006SG302 in the pseudo continuous effect are hidden from view on the display screen by moving toward the outside of the display screen (for example, see FIG. 94(A)), and the fragment images in the cut-in effect are hidden. The first fragment image 006SG302 of 006SG302 is hidden from view on the display screen by moving toward the outside of the display screen, and the second fragment image 006SG302, which is different from the first fragment image 006SG302, moves outside the display screen. It is preferable to hide the display before moving towards the target (for example, see FIG. 94(B)). By doing so, it is possible to make a difference in the way the fragment image 006SG302 is presented between the pseudo continuous effect and the cut-in effect, thereby increasing the interest.

[Form 6-1]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 77 and 78, the reach-suggesting performance and the weak development performance of this embodiment are performances with different execution timings in the variable display. It can give you a surprise. Furthermore, regarding these reach-suggesting performances and weak-development performances, the right crack display period in the reach-suggesting performance is longer than the preceding movement period in the weak-development performance, and the fragment image display period in the reach-suggesting performance and the fragment in the weak-development performance are longer. The length may be different from the image display period (see FIGS. 77 and 78). By doing so, even when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed, a suitably different impression can be given, and the interest in the game can be increased.

[Form 6-2]
Furthermore, in the reach suggestion performance, the right crack display period may be made longer than the period until the right crack display period starts in the left crack display period (see FIG. 77). By doing so, it is possible to prevent the interest of the reach-suggesting performance from decreasing due to a monotonous performance configuration.

[Form 6-3]
In addition, as the reach suggestion effect of this embodiment, there is a case in which the success pattern is executed in which the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks after a crack is displayed, and a case in which the glass plate image 006SG301A is not displayed after the crack is displayed. There are cases where the glass plate image 006SG301A is executed in a failure pattern that does not break, and when the reach suggestion effect is executed in the failure pattern, there is a broken image 006SG302 when the reach suggestion effect is executed in the success pattern. For a period of 6000 ms, which is longer than 2000 ms of the display period (fragment image display period), cracks appear in the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R and the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L as the right crack display period. Since this is displayed, it is possible to suitably indicate to the player that the reach suggestion performance will not be executed in a successful pattern, that is, that the glass plate image 006SG301A will not break.

[Form 6-4-1]
In addition, while the reach suggestion performance is a performance that informs that it will become a reach if executed in a successful pattern, it will not become a reach if it is executed in a failure pattern. Since this is a performance that suggests that the rate of being controlled to a jackpot gaming state is low, the player is dependent on whether or not the reach-suggesting performance is executed and whether the reach-suggesting performance is executed in a successful pattern. It can attract attention and increase interest.

[Form 6-4-2]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 44 to 47, in the case where both the reach suggestion effect and the weak development effect can be executed during the variable display of 1, the display of the fragment image 006SG302 in the reach suggestion effect is different from the display of the weak development effect in the reach suggestion effect. When the display of the fragment image 006SG302 in the reach suggestion performance is made executable after it has started, and the display of the fragment image 006SG302 in the reach suggestion performance is started before the execution of the weak development performance, the ratio of control to the jackpot game state is higher than when it is not performed. You can do it like this. By doing so, it is possible to draw attention to the display of the fragment image 006SG302 in the reach suggestion effect and increase interest.

[Form 6-5]
In the first timing when the glass plate image 006SG301 transitions from the state where it is displayed in a cracked state to the broken state in the reach suggestion performance, and the second timing when the broken image 006SG302 is displayed in the weak development performance, In common, a whiteout image 006SG303 (effect image of a specific color) can be displayed, and the display pattern of the whiteout image 006SG303 differs between the first timing and the second timing. Specifically, at the first timing, the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed spreading from the center of the display screen to the periphery, and at the second timing, it is displayed over the entire area of the display screen (Fig. 60 (G), Fig. 62 (D)), the display pattern of the whiteout image 006SG303 can be made different between the reach suggestion effect and the weak development effect, thereby increasing the interest.

[Form 6-6]
It is possible to highlight the decorative pattern in the reach state in the reach suggestion effect, and in the fragment image display period, the period in which the reach state glue pattern is highlighted is longer than the display period of the fragment image 006SG302. By doing so (see FIGS. 61(I) to 61(K)), it is possible to suitably indicate that a ready-to-reach state has been reached.

[Form 6-7-1]
In response to the movement of the character image 006SG305 in the reach suggestion effect, the movement effect image 006SG323 can be displayed in the layer 6 image drawing area above the fragment image 006SG302, and the timing to start displaying the cracked glass plate image 006SG301 By displaying the motion effect image 006SG323 (see FIG. 60(D)), the glass plate image 006SG301 can be changed to a cracked state without causing any discomfort.

[Form 6-7-2]
In addition, as shown in FIG. 77, in the reach suggestion performance, the timing at which a crack is displayed in the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L in the glass plate image 006SG301 and By displaying the "right" decorative pattern display area 5R and the small fragment image 006SG302A for a longer period of time than the motion effect image 006SG323, the player is informed that a crack has been displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301. This can be suitably shown.

[Form 6-7-3]
Further, as shown in FIG. 77, in the reach suggestion effect, when the character acts on the "middle" decorative pattern display area 5C in the glass plate image 006SG301, the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 is started; When acting on the "middle" decorative pattern display area 5C in the glass plate image 006SG301, the motion effect image 006SG323 is not displayed. For this reason, depending on the action of the character, cracks may be displayed in the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L or "right" decorative pattern display area 5R in the glass plate image 006SG301, and when the character appears in the glass plate image 006SG301. It is possible to prevent the reach-suggestion performance from becoming a monotonous performance by giving a difference in the performance mode of the reach-suggestion performance when acting on the "medium" decorative pattern display area 5C.

[Form 6-7-4]
In addition, as shown in FIG. 77, in the reach suggestion effect, the period in which the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed (fragment image display period) is longer than the period in which the small fragment image 006SG302A is displayed (small fragment image display period). is also a long period of time, so when a crack is displayed in the "left" decorative pattern display area 5L or "right" decorative pattern display area 5R in the glass plate image 006SG301, the character is It is possible to prevent the reach-suggestion performance from becoming a monotonous performance by giving a difference in the performance mode of the reach-suggestion performance when acting on the decorative pattern display area 5C of "medium".

[Form 6-8]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 70 and 71, since the fragment images 006SG302 displayed as reach suggestion effect have transparency, the player can visually recognize the background image through these fragment images 006SG302. On the other hand, since the fragment images 006SG302 displayed as a weak development effect do not have transparency, the player cannot see at least part of the background image through these fragment images 006SG302. , the display mode of the fragment image 006SG302 can be made different between the reach suggestion effect and the weak development effect, thereby increasing interest.

[Form 6-9]
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 83, the speed of both the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a reach suggestion effect and the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a weak development effect changes from the display start timing to the display end timing. Since the fragment images 006SG302 are displayed moving without any movement, these fragment images 006SG302 can be displayed naturally in the reach suggestion effect and the weak development effect.

[Form 6-10]
Further, the fragment image display period in the weak development effect may be set to be longer than the fragment image display period in the reach suggestion effect (see FIGS. 77 and 78). By doing this, it is possible to create a difference between the reach-suggesting performance and the weak development performance, and increase interest through a variety of presentations.

[Form 7-1]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 74 and 81, the background change effect A and the cut-in effect of this embodiment are effects that have different execution timings during the variable display, so the player can can give you a surprise. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 81, when a cut-in effect is executed, first, a pre-operation image of the push button 31B is displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 as an operation promotion effect, and the player presses the push button. 31B is operated or when the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A cracking is reached, the cut-in effect is executed, and during the display period of the white-out image 006SG303, it is given priority over the white-out image 006SG303. An image of the state after the push button 31B is operated is displayed. Here, the display period of the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect is 2500 ms, the display period of the state image before the operation of the push button 31B is 3000 ms, and the display period of the state image after the operation of the push button 31B is the display period of the white-out image 006SG303. The display period is 1000ms, which is the same as the display period, that is, the display period of the fragment image 006SG302 in the cut-in effect (cut-in image display period) is the same as the display period of the pre-operation mode image of the push button 31B (pre-operation mode image display period). ) and longer than the display period of the state image after operation of the push button 31B (post-operation state image display period), the cut-in effect becomes monotonous and the interest of the cut-in effect decreases. This can be prevented.

[Form 8-1]
Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 74 and 76, the background change effect A and the pseudo-continuous effect of this embodiment are effects that have different execution timings during the variable display. can give you a surprise. Background change effect A is an effect in which the background image displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 is different between before the crack display period and during the fragment image display period. Furthermore, in the pseudo continuous effect, the combination of decorative patterns displayed in the display area of the image display device 5 is different between before the crack display period and during the fragment image display period (for example, before the crack display period, the combination of decorative patterns is different). However, after the display of the fragment image 006SG302 is started, the decorative symbols are temporarily stopped in a combination according to the pseudo continuous effect). By doing so, even when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed, a suitably different impression can be given, and the interest in the game can be increased.

[Form 8-2]
Regarding the background change effect A and pseudo continuous effect shown in FIGS. 74 and 76, after displaying the first stage crack on the glass plate image 006SG301, the first stage crack is changed to the second stage crack.

Furthermore, the period in which cracks are displayed in background change effect A (crack display period) is 2000 ms, while the period in which cracks are displayed in pseudo continuous effect (crack display period) is 1500 ms, which is different in length. . In both the background change effect A and the pseudo continuous effect, the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 is started at the timing of the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A at which the display of the fragment image 006SG302 is started, and these whiteout images are The display period of the image 006SG303 consists of an early white-out display period in which the player cannot see the broken image 006SG302 due to the white-out image 006SG303, and a late white-out display period in which the player can see the broken image 006SG302. Therefore, the sense of discomfort when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed can be reduced by the whiteout image 006SG303, and the background change effect A and the pseudo-sequence can be suitably executed.

[Form 9-2]
Regarding the background change effect A and the pseudo continuous effect shown in FIGS. 74 and 76, after displaying the first stage crack on the glass plate image 006SG301, the first stage crack is changed to the second stage crack.

By doing this, the specific character (for example, character image 006SG305) appears in common in the plurality of crack patterns, so that the degree of attention to the specific character increases.

[Form 55]
There are a first pattern (for example, crack pattern A) and a second pattern (for example, crack pattern E) as display patterns of the crack image (for example, the fragment image 006SG302), and the first pattern is the display pattern of the character image 006SG305. This is a pattern in which a first type of cracked image is displayed in conjunction with the movement of the character image 006SG305, and a second pattern is a pattern in which a second type of cracked image is displayed in conjunction with the movement of the character image 006SG305. , when displaying a broken image using the first pattern, an effect image (for example, a whiteout image 006SG303) is displayed in conjunction with the movement of the character image 006SG305, and a predetermined image is displayed after displaying the first type of broken image 006SG302. When the effect image is hidden at the timing and the broken image is displayed using the second pattern, the effect image is displayed in conjunction with the movement of the character image 006SG305, and the second type of broken image 006SG302 is displayed. The effect image (for example, whiteout image 006SG303) is hidden at a specific timing (see FIGS. 56, 57, and 60 to 62). In this way, the whiteout image 006SG303 hides the first display portion of the fragment image 006SG302, thereby preventing the fragment image 006SG302 from giving a sense of discomfort.

[Form 56]
There are a first pattern (for example, crack pattern E) and a second pattern (for example, crack pattern A) as display patterns of the crack image (for example, the fragment image 006SG302), and the first pattern is the display pattern of the character image 006SG305. The second pattern is a pattern in which a plurality of cracked images of the first type are displayed in conjunction with the movements of the character image 006SG305, and the second pattern is a pattern in which a plurality of cracked images of the second type are displayed in conjunction with the movements of the character image 006SG305. The fragment image 006SG302 of the first type is displayed in such a manner that it moves while changing from the first speed to the second speed over the display period of the first type of fragment image 006SG302, and the second type of fragment image 006SG302 is Over the display period of the type of fragment image 006SG302, it is displayed in a manner that it moves without a change in speed (see FIGS. 60, 61, 56, and 57). By doing so, the speed at which the fragment image 006SG302 moves can be changed depending on the type of crack pattern, thereby increasing the presentation effect.

[Form 57]
There are a first pattern (for example, crack pattern A) and a second pattern (for example, crack pattern E) as display patterns of the crack image (for example, the fragment image 006SG302), and the first pattern is the display pattern of the character image 006SG305. This is a pattern in which the first type of cracked image is displayed in conjunction with the movement of the character image 006SG305, and the second pattern is a pattern in which the second type of cracked image is displayed in conjunction with the movement of the character image 006SG305. The degree of expectation of being controlled into a jackpot state is different depending on when the image is displayed and when the broken image is displayed according to the second pattern (see FIGS. 56, 57, 60, and 61). By doing so, expectations for the character image 006SG305 are increased, and interest is increased by drawing attention to the type of crack pattern after the character image 006SG305 is displayed.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and any changes or additions that do not depart from the gist of the present invention are included in the present invention. It will be done.

(Modification 1)
For example, in the embodiment described above, the speed of the fragment image 006SG302 after the first half of the whiteout display period of each effect is all constant (first continuous crack effect, second continuous break effect, dialogue preview effect, background change effect A). , background change performance B, pseudo continuous performance, reach suggestion performance, weak development performance, strong development performance A, V1 for result notification performance, V0 for strong development performance B and cut-in performance), but this The invention is not limited to this, and as a first modified example, these first continuous cracking effects, second continuous breaking effects, dialogue preview effect, background change effect A, background change effect B, pseudo continuous effect, and reach suggestion effect are included. , weak development effect, strong development effect A, strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect. The advancing speed (display speed) in the vertical direction (also referred to as the Y-axis direction), and in the direction toward the player (also referred to as the Z-axis direction) may be different.
The degree may be different.

For example, as shown in FIG. 95(A), a first continuous cracking effect, a second continuous breaking effect, a dialogue preview effect, a background change effect A, a background change effect B, a pseudo continuous effect, a reach suggestion effect, a weak development effect, The fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a crack effect in the result notification effect is a fragment image 006SG302A, Fragment image 006SG302B moving at a speed of 0 in the axial direction, a speed of Vy1 in the Y-axis direction, and 0 speed in the Z-axis direction, 0 speed in the X-axis direction, 0 speed in the Y-axis direction, In addition to the fragment image 006SG302C that travels in the Z-axis direction at a speed of Vz1, there is also a fragment image 006SG302 that travels in two of these X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions, and fragment image 006SG302 that travels in three directions. It may have a fragment image 006SG302.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 95(B), the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a cracking effect of strong development effect A, strong development effect B, and cut-in effect has a speed of Vx2 in the X-axis direction and a speed of Vx2 in the Y-axis direction. Fragment image 006SG302A moving at a speed of 0 towards the Z-axis direction, a speed of 0 towards the X-axis direction, a speed of Vy2 towards the Y-axis direction, and a speed of 0 towards the Z-axis direction In addition to the fragment image 006SG302B, the fragment image 006SG302C that moves at a speed of 0 in the X-axis direction, 0 in the Y-axis direction, and Vz2 in the Z-axis direction, these images in the X-axis direction, Y-axis direction, and Z-axis direction Among the axial directions, the fragment image 006SG302 may proceed in two directions, and the fragment image 006SG302 may proceed in three directions.

Note that since moving the fragment image 006SG302 in the Z-axis direction means displaying the fragment image 006SG302 in an enlarged manner, the speed at which the fragment image 006SG302 moves in the Z-axis direction is also referred to as an enlarged display speed.

Here, in each production, when comparing the fragment image 006SG302A that advances only in the X-axis direction, the fragment image 006SG302B that advances only in the Y-axis direction, and the fragment image 006SG302C that advances only in the Z-axis direction, as shown in FIG. 95(C) In this modification example 1, unlike the fragment image 006SG302A and the fragment image 006SG302B, the fragment image 006SG302C is only enlarged and displayed toward the player. It is set longer than image 006SG302B. In other words, in the cracking effect of each effect, by displaying the enlarged fragment image 006SG302C, it is possible to create a three-dimensional effect for the player, and the fragment image 006SG302A ends when the fragment image 006SG302B is displayed. Since the three-dimensional effect can be continued even after the splitting, the effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed as a cracking effect can be enhanced.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 95(D), a first continuous cracking effect, a second continuous breaking effect, a dialogue preview effect, a background change effect A, a background change effect B, a pseudo continuous effect, a reach suggestion effect, and a weak development effect. , the result notification performance is the performance group X, the strong development performance A, the strong development performance B, and the cut-in performance is the performance group Y, and the fragment image 006SG302C displayed as the cracking performance of these performance group X and the cracking performance of the performance group Y. Comparing the displayed fragment image 006SG302C, in this modification 1, the traveling speed Vz1 of the fragment image 006SG302C in the presentation group The fragment image 006SG302C in the effect group Y is set to have a longer period from the start of display to the end of the display than the fragment image 006SG302C in the effect group X, for example, by setting the display speed to be high (Vz1>Vz2). Therefore, in the present modification example 1, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the result notification. By being able to execute the background change performance A and the strong development performance B at different timings, it is possible to make the player pay attention to these performances at various timings, thereby giving surprise to the player. , since the period required for the fragment image 006SG302C to be hidden is different between the effects included in effect group X and the effects included in effect group Y, the same broken effect is executed to display the fragment image 006SG302. Even in the case of a presentation, it is possible to give suitably different impressions to the player depending on the presentation, so that the interest in the game can be increased.

In particular, in this modification example 1, the effects included in effect group Y are set to require a longer period of time to hide the fragment image 006SG302C than the effects included in effect group X. When the cracking effect is executed as the included effect, the effect of displaying the fragment image 006SG302C can be enhanced more than when the breaking effect is executed as the effect included in the effect group X.

In addition, in this modification example 1, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , a form in which the fragment image 006SG302 is moved and displayed (enlarged) toward the player as the fragment image 006SG302 of the strong development effect B, the cut-in effect, and the result notification effect is provided, but the present invention is directed to this. However, the visibility of the fragment image 006SG302 that is moved and displayed toward the player (enlarged display) changes as it is enlarged and displayed from the display start timing to the display end timing. You can also do this. By doing so, the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed can be further enhanced.

In addition, in this modification example 1, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , Comparing the fragment image 006SG302A that progresses only in the X-axis direction, the fragment image 006SG302B that progresses only in the Y-axis direction, and the fragment image 006SG302C that progresses only in the Z-axis direction in strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect. , as shown in FIG. 95(C), the fragment image 006SG302C is set to have a longer period from display start to display end than the fragment image 006SG302A and the fragment image 006SG302B. The period from the start of display to the end of the display of the fragment image 006SG302C that progresses only in the Z-axis direction in a specific production (for example, a cut-in production) is not limited to a predetermined production (for example, a pseudo-coupling production) that is different from the specific production. The period may be longer than the period from the start of display to the end of display of the fragment images 006SG302A and 006SG302A, B that move only in the X-axis direction and Y-axis direction in the presentation). By doing this, the display mode of the fragment image 006SG302 is made different between the specific performance and the predetermined performance (in the above example, the cut-in performance and the pseudo continuous performance), and the interest of these specific performance and predetermined performance is increased. can be increased.

In addition, in the embodiment and the present modification 1, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, and the weak development effect. , strong development effect A, strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect, fragment images 006SG302 are displayed, and these fragment images 006SG302 are hidden by being moved and displayed. The present invention is not limited to this, and for fragment images 006SG302 displayed as a predetermined effect (for example, pseudo continuous effect or background change effect A), all the fragment images 006SG302 are displayed outside the display area of the image display device 5. Regarding the fragment image 006SG302 that is hidden by completely moving towards the target and displayed as a specific effect (for example, strong development effect B or cut-in effect), some of the fragment images 006SG302 are displayed on the image display device 5. While the fragment image 006SG302 may be hidden by being completely moved outside the area, other fragment images 006SG302 may be hidden while being moved outside the display area of the image display device 5. By doing so, it is possible to make the display modes of the fragment image 006SG302 different between the predetermined performance and the specific performance, thereby increasing the interest of the specific performance and the predetermined performance.

In addition, in this modification example 1, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the result notification effect. Although the embodiment has been exemplified in which the fragment images 006SG302 displayed as each crack effect are displayed moving in multiple directions such as the X-axis direction, Y-axis direction, and Z-axis direction, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the position at which the display of the fragment image 006SG302 starts may be different between the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as the crack effect of the first continuous crack effect and the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as the second continuous crack effect. . By doing so, it is possible to make a difference in the way the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed between the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous breaking effect, thereby increasing the interest.

(Modification 2)
Furthermore, in the above embodiment, a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 are displayed as a result of the glass plate image 006SG301A being broken as the breaking effect of each effect. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and each The number of fragment images 006SG302 displayed as a cracking effect may vary depending on the timing.

For example, as shown in FIG. 96A, the whiteout display early period in which the whiteout image 006SG303 is displayed from the cracking timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A has a length L1, and is a period that is continuous with the whiteout display early period, The latter period of white-out display in which the white-out image 006SG303 having a higher transmittance than the first period of white-out display is displayed has a length L2 (L2>L1).

In addition, the fragment image display period is set to a length L3 (L3>L1+L2), which is the period from the cracking timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A and is longer than the total period of the early whiteout display period and the late whiteout display period. It consists of a first fragment image display period and a second fragment image display period that is continuous with the first fragment image display period and has a length L4 (L3+L4>L1+L2).

Here, as shown in FIG. 96(B), in the second fragment image display period, more fragment images 006SG302 are displayed than in the first fragment image display period, thereby increasing the game interest of the cracking effect. I can do it. Furthermore, in this modification example 2, in the first fragment image display period, the player cannot see the fragment image 006SG302 due to the white-out image 006SG303 during the period that overlaps with the early white-out display period; In the period that overlaps with the whiteout display period, the player can view the fragment image 006SG302 through the whiteout image 006SG303, and the length L3 of the first fragment image display period is equal to the total period of the whiteout display early period and the whiteout display latter period. Since the length is longer than the length (L1+L2), during the first half of the white-out display period, by making the fragmented image 006SG302 invisible to the player, the player may feel uncomfortable with the cracking effect due to the cracking of the glass plate image 006SG301A. In addition, it is possible to prevent the whiteout image 006SG303 from being emphasized more than the fragmentation image 006SG302 in the latter half of the whiteout display period, thereby preventing the game enjoyment of the cracking effect from decreasing. There is.

In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the reach suggestion effect, the strong development effect A, the strong development effect B, and the cut-in. The fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a cracking effect in the performance and result notification effect has transparency, while the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a cracking effect in the pseudo continuous effect and the weak development effect does not have transparency. Although the present invention is not limited to this example, the present invention is not limited to this, and includes a first continuous cracking effect, a second continuous breaking effect, a dialogue preview effect, a background change effect A, a background change effect B, a pseudo continuous effect, and a reach effect. The fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the suggestion effect, weak development effect, strong development effect A, strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect may all have transparency, or all of them may be transparent. It does not have to have a gender.

(Modification 3)
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 97 as modification example 3, a first continuous cracking effect, a second continuous breaking effect, a dialogue preview effect, a background change effect A, a background change effect B, a pseudo continuous effect, a reach suggestion effect, and a weak development effect. The transmittance of the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the cracking effects of , strong development effect A, strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect changes as the effect progresses (in this modification example 3) If so, the transmittance of the fragment image 006SG302 is 0 at the display timing of the fragment image 006SG302, T1 (T1>0) at the end timing of the whiteout display period, and T2 (T2>T1) at the end timing of the whiteout display latter period. , T3 (T3>T2) may be set at the timing at which the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends.By doing this, for example, immediately before the timing at which the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends, the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed on the image display device 5. When sufficiently scattered over the display area, the presentation effect can be enhanced.

In particular, in this modification example 3, the transmittance of the fragment image 006SG302 increases as time passes from the timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A cracking, so the player can see the image displayed as a result of the cracking effect. Since the image can be easily recognized through the image 006SG302, it is possible to prevent the performance effect from deteriorating due to the image displayed as a result of the cracking performance being blocked by the fragment image 006SG302 and becoming difficult to see.

In addition, in this third modification, the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the cracking effect has an example in which the transmittance increases as the effect progresses, but the present invention is not limited to this. The transmittance of the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the crack effect may decrease as the effect progresses.

(Modification 4)
Furthermore, in modification example 3, a first continuous cracking performance, a second continuous cracking performance, a dialogue preview performance, a background change performance A, a background change performance B, a pseudo continuous performance, a reach suggestion performance, a weak development performance, a strong development performance A, As the cracking effects of strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect, the transmittance of the fragment image 006SG302 increases as time passes from the timing of the breakage of the glass plate image 006SG301A, but the present invention The present invention is not limited to this, and as shown in FIGS. 98(A) and 98(B) as a fourth modification, the effects to be executed include a first continuous breaking effect, a second continuous breaking effect, a dialogue preview effect, Fragment image 006SG302 depending on whether it is background change effect A, background change effect B, pseudo continuous effect, reach suggestion effect, weak development effect, strong development effect A, strong development effect B, cut-in effect, or result notification effect. The transmittance of the fragment image 006SG302 may be different depending on the game state even if the effect is the same (in FIG. 98, the background change effect A and the weak development effect are different). (Illustrating the transmittance of the fragment image 006SG302 in and).

As shown in FIG. 98, in the background change effect A and the weak development effect, after the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken and the display of the fragment image 006SG302 is started as a crack effect, the period of whiteout display ends. This makes the fragment image 006SG302 visible to the player. Here, the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a crack effect of the background change effect A and the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a crack effect of the weak development effect have different transmittances when they are visible to the player. Therefore, even if the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken, it is possible to create a difference in the content of the effect. Therefore, as the breaking effect of the background change effect A, the glass plate image 006SG301 is broken and the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed. It is possible to enhance the production effect between when the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken and the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed as a crack production of the weak development production.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 98, a fragment image 006SG302 is displayed as a cracking effect as background change effect A when executed in a normal state, and a weak development effect when executed in a time saving state or a variable probability state. Even when comparing the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the cracking effect of , the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the cracking effect as background change effect A when executed in the normal state and the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the breaking effect as the background change effect A when executed in the time saving state or the variable probability state. When the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed as a cracking effect as a weak development effect when executed, the transmittance in the state where it can be seen by the player is different, so in both cases, the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed as a breaking effect. Even if the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken and the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed as the cracking effect of the background change effect A in the normal state, it is possible to make a difference in the effect content even if there is a difference in the effect. It is possible to enhance the production effect when the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken and the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed as a crack production in the development production.

(Modification 5)
In addition, in the embodiment, as a result of the character acting on the glass plate image 006SG301A as background change effect A or reach suggestion effect, a breaking effect is executed as a effect within these background change effect A or reach suggestion effect. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and when a character acts on the glass plate image 006SG301A as the background change effect A or the reach suggestion effect, a voice corresponding to the displayed character (for example, a character voice) may also be output. By doing so, it is possible to give contrast to the crack effect between when the crack is displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301A and when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed. In particular, as shown in FIG. 99 as modification example 5, when a character voice corresponding to the character is output when the character acts on the glass plate image 006SG301 as background change effect A or reach suggestion effect, the output of the character voice is The character voice and the cracking sound may be output at the same volume (Vol1 in the example of FIG. 99) so that at least a part of the period and the output period of the cracking sound overlap.

In addition, in this modification 5, as shown in FIG. 99, the crack effect sound that is output when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed has a louder volume than the crack sound that is output when the crack is displayed. (Vol2 in the example of FIG. 99) may be output. By doing this, it is possible to add contrast to the crack effect between when the crack is displayed on the glass plate image 006SG301 and when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed, and furthermore, the crack effect can be added as a background change effect A or a reach suggestion effect. It is possible for the player to get an impression that the performance is executed, that is, that the background change performance A and the reach suggestion performance are executed in a successful pattern, and the cracking pattern of these cracking performances.

(Modification 6)
In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect are shown as examples in which the fragment image 006SG302 that is displayed from the cracking timing of the glass plate image 006SG301A is moved and displayed until the end of the display. The fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a cracking effect of these effects may be rotated in addition to being moved during the period from the start of the display to the end of the display. Furthermore, the number of revolutions from the start of display to the end of display of the fragment image 006SG302 may be different depending on which of the effects is performed.

For example, as shown in FIG. 100 as modification example 6, the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, and the breaking effect of the dialogue preview effect rotates R three times from the start of display to the end of display. However, the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as the cracking effect of background change effect A, background change effect B, pseudo-continuous effect, reach suggestion effect, weak development effect, and strong development effect A is larger than R3 from the start of display to the end of display. Fragment image 006SG302, which is rotated a small number of times R2 (R3>2) and displayed as a cracking effect of strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect, rotates fewer times than R2 from the start of display to the end of display. It is sufficient to rotate R1 (R2>R1) times.

In this way, in this modification 6, even if the timings that can be executed during variable display are different, by having the effect in which the number of rotations from the start of display of the fragment image 006SG302 to the end of display is the same, The combination of the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, and the dialogue preview effect, the combination of the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A, the strong Like the combination of development performance B, cut-in performance, and result notification performance, the relevance within each combination of performances increases, so the performance effect within the combination of these performances can be enhanced.

In addition, as described above, in this modification 6, the number of revolutions from the start of display to the end of display of the fragment image 006SG302 differs depending on which effect is the cracking effect, and in particular, for example, the pseudo continuous effect The fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a cracking effect has a higher number of revolutions from the start of display to the end of the display than the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a cracking effect in the cut-in effect, so the first continuous cracking effect and the second continuous cracking effect are Cracks performed as production, dialogue preview production, background change production A, background change production B, pseudo-continuation production, reach suggestion production, weak development production, strong development production A, strong development production B, cut-in production, result notification production Variations in presentation can be increased, and the presentation effect when the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed can be enhanced.

In addition, in this modification example 6, the first consecutive cracking performance, the second consecutive cracking performance, the dialogue preview performance, the background change performance A, the background change performance B, the pseudo continuous performance, the reach suggestion performance, the weak development performance, and the strong development performance A. , the form in which the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as the strong development effect B, the cut-in effect, and the result notification effect is displayed in rotation has been illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and during the rotation of the fragment image 006SG302. When these fragment images 006SG302 reach the first rotation angle, the player can see the background image through the fragment image 006SG302, and when these fragment images 006SG302 reach the second rotation angle, the player can see the background image through the fragment image 006SG302. At least a portion of the background image may be made invisible. By doing so, it is possible to enhance the presentation effect when these fragment images 006SG302 are displayed. Furthermore, in the case where the presence or absence of transparency of the fragment image 006SG302 changes depending on the rotation angle of the fragment image 006SG302 as described above, instead of rotating all the fragment images 006SG302 synchronously, at least some of the fragment images 006SG302 are rotated. Image 006SG302 may be rotated at a different angle from other fragment images 006SG302. For example, when one fragment image 006SG302 has the first rotation angle, part of the other fragment image 006SG302 has the rotation angle 2, thereby further enhancing the presentation effect when displaying the fragment image 006SG302. be able to.

(Modification 7)
Further, as the pseudo-continuous effect in the above embodiment, a form in which a crack is displayed in the image display area of the image display device 5 and then a crack effect is executed according to the operation of the movable body 32 was exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this, and as shown in FIG. 101(A) as modification example 7, as a pseudo continuous effect, the character acts on the glass plate image 006SG301 displayed in the display area of the image display device 5. Alternatively, the crack may be displayed as a crack display period after a preliminary operation period in which the movable body 32 falls. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 101(B), by configuring the crack display period into a crack pre-stage display period and a crack post-stage display period as in the background change effect A of the embodiment, the crack can be displayed in two stages. The cracking effect may be executed after being displayed separately.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 101(B), the length of the pre-crack display period in the pseudo continuous effect may be made different from the pre-crack display period in the background change effect A of the embodiment. By doing so, even though it is the same that the glass plate image 006SG301 is cracked in two stages in the background change effect A of the embodiment and the pseudo-continuous effect of this modified example 7, they are By making the period until the second stage crack is displayed different between the background change effect A and the pseudo-continuous effect, it is possible to increase the effect patterns until the crack effect is executed. It is possible to enhance the presentation effect when the is displayed.

Furthermore, in this modification example 7, like the background change effect A in the above-described embodiment, the pseudo-continuous effect is performed in the display area of the image display device 5 after a preliminary operation period in which the character's action and the movement of the movable body 32 operate. In the example shown in FIG. It is also possible to create an effect in which cracks are displayed in two stages in the display area of the image display device 5 after a pre-stage operation period in which the action of , and the operation of the movable body 32 are performed. In this case as well, the crack display period in the reach-suggesting performance is composed of a crack-pre-stage display period and a crack-post-stage display period, and the length of the crack-front stage display period in the reach-suggestion performance is set to the background change performance A of the embodiment. The period may be different from the pre-crack display period. By doing this, even though it is the same that the glass plate image 006SG301 is cracked in two stages in the background change effect A of the embodiment and the reach suggestion effect of this modified example 7, they are By making the period until the second stage crack is displayed different between the background change effect A and the reach suggestion effect, it is possible to increase the effect pattern until the crack effect is executed, and it is possible to increase the effect pattern until the crack effect is executed. It is possible to enhance the presentation effect when displayed.

(Modification 8)
In the embodiment described above, the glass plate image 006SG301 and the glass plate image 006SG301A as crack precursor images are placed in the layer 4 image drawing area and the layer 5 image drawing area below the active display area 5F and the special figure pending storage display area 5U. Although the display form is illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this, and the glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image and the glass plate image 006SG301A as an image replacing the glass plate image 006SG301 are displayed in the active display area 5F and It may be possible to display it not only in the layer 4 image drawing area below the special figure pending storage display area 5U, but also in the layer image drawing area above the active display area 5F and the special figure pending storage display area 5U.

For example, in this modification example 8, as shown in FIGS. 102 (A1) to (A5), in the background change effect A, the glass plate image 006SG301 is placed in a layer higher than the active display area 5F and the special figure pending storage display area 5U. It can be displayed in the image drawing area. In addition, in response to the kicking motion of the character image 006SG305 toward the front, cracks are displayed radially expanding from a position slightly to the right of the approximate center of the glass plate image 006SG301. After being displayed in the previous stage mode (see FIG. 102 (A2)), when the crack gradually spreads radially and changes to the crack mode, a part of the crack is displayed in the active display area 5F and the special figure pending storage display area 5U. They can be displayed in a superimposed manner (see FIG. 102 (A3)).

When a part of the crack is displayed in such a way that it overlaps the active display area 5F and the special figure pending storage display area 5U, the first pending display 006SG101 (second pending display) and the active display 006SG103 are displayed. In this case, the visibility of the first pending display 006SG101 (second pending display) and the active display 006SG103 may deteriorate. Therefore, in this case, the execution of the active change effect in which the display color of the active display 006SG103 changes is restricted, so the display color of the active display 006SG103 does not change.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 102 (B1) to (B5), in the background change effect B, as explained in the embodiment, the glass plate image 006SG301 and the character image 006SG305 are displayed in the active display area 5F and the special figure hold It is possible to display it in a layer image drawing area lower than the storage display area 5U. In addition, in response to the action of character image 006SG305 appearing in the upper right corner of the screen, a crack display area 006SG324 consisting of cracks including small crack areas is displayed at the lower left position of glass plate image 006SG301 (Fig. 102 (B1 ), two new crack display areas 006SG324 are displayed at the upper right position of the crack display area 006SG324 in accordance with the movement of the character image 006SG305 to start descending. The appearance of cracks changes stepwise (see FIG. 102 (B2)).

However, in this case, since the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in the layer 4 image drawing area that is lower than the active display area 5F and the special figure reservation storage display area 5U, if the crack grows and the active display area 5F and the special figure reservation Even if it is displayed so as to cover the storage display area 5U, the crack will not be displayed so as to overlap the active display area 5F and the special figure pending storage display area 5U.

Also, even when the character image 006SG305 is displayed moving across the active display area 5F and the special figure pending memory display area 5U, the character image 006SG305 is superimposed on the active display area 5F and the special figure pending memory display area 5U. The effect image 006SG330 may be displayed in a layer image drawing area above the active display area 5F and the special figure pending storage display area 5U without being displayed (see FIG. 102 (B3)). Thereafter, an active change effect is executed, and the display color of the active display 006SG103 changes (see FIG. 102 (B4)).

As described above, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the background change effect A that may reduce the visibility of the active display area 5F and the special figure hold memory display area 5U is an active change effect ( By overlapping the execution period with the effect production by the changing character), the execution of the active change production that changes the display mode of the active display 006SG103 is restricted, and when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked mode, In the background change effect B that does not reduce the visibility of the active display area 5F and the special figure hold memory display area 5U, by making it possible to execute an active change effect that changes the display mode of the active display 006SG103, the crack precursor image can be similarly displayed. Even if the effect is displayed, since the display layer and whether or not the active change effect is executed are different, it is possible to give suitably different impressions and increase the interest in the game. Note that the target of the change effect may be the first pending display 006SG101 or the second pending display.

In addition, in background change effect A, part of the crack is displayed so as to overlap with the active display area 5F and the special figure pending memory display area 5U, thereby improving the visibility of the active display area 5F and the special figure pending memory display area 5U. However, if the display mode of the pending display or active display changes in such a situation, it will be difficult to tell whether the change is due to the change effect or the crack mode, giving the player a sense of distrust. It is preferable that the changing effect can be executed in the background changing effect B in which the visibility of the active display area 5F and the special figure pending storage display area 5U does not deteriorate even if it becomes a crack mode.

Further, in this modification example 8, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner in the background change effect A, execution of the active change effect is restricted, but for example, after that, the crack effect is executed and the broken image 006SG302 After the whiteout image 006SG303 is scattered and the whiteout image 006SG303 is hidden, the active change effect can be executed, that is, it may be executed at a timing different from the original execution timing (for example, at the start of variation or during reach). Furthermore, the active change effect may be performed in a simplified manner (for example, in a manner in which the changing character is not displayed and the active display mode is casually changed at the timing shown in FIG. 102 (A3)). In this way, by performing the change effect during a period that does not overlap with the period in which the active display becomes difficult to see due to the break effect, it is possible to enhance the effect of both the break effect and the change effect.

(Modification 9)
Furthermore, in the above embodiment, when the strong development effect A is executed, it is determined that it will develop into the strong S reach effect A, but the present invention is not limited to this. The plurality of fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the performance are fragment images 006SG342M in a suggestive manner suggesting that any one of multiple types of strong S reach performances A, B, J, and N with different expectations will be executed; 006SG342J, 006SG342N, etc. may be included.

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 103(A) to (F), the cracking effect is executed in the strong development effect A, and the display of the fragment image 006SG302 ends after the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 ends. Before being hidden, a fragment image 006SG342M that suggests that strong S reach effect A or strong S reach effect B will be executed, and a fragment image 006SG342J that suggests that strong S reach effect J will be executed, A fragment image 006SG342N indicating that the strong S reach effect N will be executed and a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 are displayed (see FIG. 103(G)).

Then, among the fragment images 006SG342M, 006SG342J, and 006SG342N, only one fragment image 006SG342M is displayed while the other fragment images 006SG342J and 006SG342N are hidden, and if multiple fragment images 006SG302 in a transparent mode are displayed, the strong S It is announced that reach effect A or strong S reach effect B will be executed (see FIGS. 104 (A1), (A2), and (A2')), and the fragment image 006SG342J is displayed as a single image while other fragment images 006SG342M are displayed. , 006SG342N is hidden and multiple fragment images 006SG302 in transparent mode are displayed, it is announced that the strong S reach effect J will be executed (see FIGS. 104 (B1) and (B2)), and the fragment images If the other fragment images 006SG342M and 006SG342J are hidden while 006SG342N is displayed as a single image, and multiple fragment images 006SG302 in transparent mode are displayed, it will be announced that the strong S reach effect N will be executed ( (See FIGS. 104(C1) and (C2)).

By doing this, it is possible to increase the relationship between the fragment image in the strong development effect A and the subsequent strong S reach effect, so it is also suitable even if the effect displays the fragment image 006SG302. It is possible to give a different impression to the player and increase the interest in the game.

In addition, in this modification, the type of strong S reach effect to be executed is indicated by the non-transparent fragment images 006SG342M, 006SG342J, and 006SG342N that display the faces of the types of characters that appear in various strong S reach effects. However, the suggestion mode is not limited to the above one, and can be changed in various ways as long as the fragment image has a mode that allows the type of strong S reach performance to be executed. It may be a fragment image displaying related information such as a reach title name and a background image that can identify the type of performance.

Furthermore, if one of the plurality of fragment images 006SG342M, 006SG342J, 006SG342N is displayed while the others are hidden, it is suggested that the type of fragmentation image 006SG342M, 006SG342J, 006SG342N has been decided to be executed. Any one of them may be suggested by displaying it in a larger size, in a different color, by displaying an effect image, or by displaying it in an emphasized manner. Further, the strong S reach effect may be executed with two or more fragment images finally displayed.

(Modification 10)
Further, in the embodiment, a plurality of fragment images 006SG302 are displayed in one layer 5 image drawing area, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 are displayed in two or more layer image drawing areas. It may also be displayable.

For example, in this modification 10, as shown in FIG. 105, among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 that can be displayed in the crack pattern F used in the strong development effect A, the large fragment image 006SG302 is displayed on layer 5-1 in a transparent manner. The small fragment image 006SG302 is displayed in the image drawing area in a non-transparent manner in the layer 5-2 image drawing area which is higher than the layer 5-1 image drawing area. Further, in this case, the glass plate image 006SG301 displayed as a crack precursor image is displayed in each of the layer 5-1 image drawing area and the layer 5-2 image drawing area at the crack timing. Furthermore, as explained in modification example 9, one of the large fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the layer 5-1 image drawing area has the face of a character corresponding to the type of strong S reach effect drawn. It is said to be a mode.

In this way, one of the large fragment images 006SG302 displayed in the layer 5-1 image drawing area has a character drawn, and the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the layer 5-2 image drawing area is This is a transparent mode in which at least a part of the background image displayed in the layer 1 image drawing area that is lower than the layer 5-2 image drawing area can be recognized. In this way, by displaying the two types of fragment images 006SG302 with different display modes in overlapping display periods, it is possible to provide a memorable effect.

Further, as shown in FIG. 105(B), the layer 5-1 image drawing area and the layer 5-2 image drawing area are a first display that is not superimposed on the movable body 32 when the movable body 32 moves to the production position. It is composed of an area L1 and a second display area L2 surrounded by a two-dot chain line indicating the movable body 32. When the movable body 32 moves to the production position, the amount of the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the first display area L1 is larger than that of the fragment image 006SG302 displayed in the second display area L2. . By doing so, the fragment image 006SG302 can be suitably displayed while the movable body 32 overlaps the display area of the image display device 5.

Further, any first fragment image 006SG302 among the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 is displayed in a manner of moving from the first display area L1 to the second display area L2, while the plurality of fragment images 006SG302 Any second fragment image 006SG302 of the images 006SG302 is displayed in such a manner that it moves in the first display area L1 so as not to enter the second display area L2. By doing this, the fragment image 006SG302 that does not enter the second display area L2 makes it clear that it is broken, while the fragment image 006SG302 that passes through the first display area L1 is prepared, creating a lively effect. can be provided.

Further, in the embodiment, the glass plate image 006SG301 imitating a glass plate is applied as an example of the crack precursor image, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention is not limited to this. A crack precursor image imitating an object other than glass may also be applied. Further, when displaying the glass plate image 006SG301, the transmittance may be displayed at 100% or less than 100%. Further, the crack precursor image may be displayed in a plurality of layered image drawing areas so that crack effects can be produced individually.

Furthermore, in the above embodiment, as an example of the fragment image, a form in which a glass fragment image 006SG302 imitating a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A, which is a replacement for the glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image, can be displayed is shown. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and as long as an image that imitates at least a part of the glass plate image 006SG301A instead of the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed, an image different from the glass plate image 006SG301 may be displayed. The broken fragment image may be displayed in part. Further, although the fragment image is displayed in a display layer higher than the crack precursor image, it may be displayed in a lower display layer than the crack precursor image.

Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the cracking patterns A to G are set as the cracking patterns in the cracking effect, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the cracking effect is based on cracking patterns of types other than those described above. may be executable.

Furthermore, in the embodiment described above, an example was given in which a cracking effect can be executed during execution of an effect such as a preview effect indicating the expectation level of a jackpot, but the present invention is not limited to this. The breaking effect may be performed independently and separately from other effects other than the breaking effect. In this case, by making the jackpot expectation different depending on the form of the cracking pattern, the breaking performance may be performed as one of the preview performances, or the performance stage, performance mode, and game state may be changed. It may also be performed as a change effect.

Furthermore, in the above-mentioned embodiment, in the crack effect, the crack starts when some kind of impact (force) is applied from the rear side to the approximate center position of the glass plate image 006SG301 displayed as the crack precursor image. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and cracking may be started by applying some kind of impact (force) to a predetermined position of the crack precursor image from the front side. Further, the force may be applied to multiple locations on the crack precursor image at a predetermined timing or at multiple timings.

In addition, in the embodiment, depending on the type of preview effect, cracking may start after the glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image changes to a crack mode, or cracking may start suddenly without changing to a crack mode. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and regardless of the type of preview effect, all crack effects include the glass plate image 006SG301 as a crack precursor image changing to a crack mode. Alternatively, cracking may start suddenly without all the cracking effects changing to the crack mode.

Further, in the embodiment, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, the object image (such as a character), decorative pattern, and background image displayed in the layer image drawing area lower than the glass plate image 006SG301. is displayed in the first visibility when the glass plate image 006SG301 is not displayed, but is displayed in the second visibility, which is lower in visibility than the first visibility, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed. Although the present invention is not limited to this example, when the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed in a cracked manner, a layer image drawing area lower than the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed. The various images to be displayed may be displayed with the first visibility without reducing their visibility, and for example, the crack may be displayed in a way that makes it stand out by displaying a colored effect image or the like in the portion representing the crack.

Furthermore, in the embodiment described above, the character image 006SG305 was mainly used as an example of the object image, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the character type may be of a type other than the above. It's okay. Furthermore, instead of a character, it can be changed to a person, an object such as an iron ball or a rock, a target, etc. in various ways.

Furthermore, in the embodiment, the cracking effect is divided into cases where cracking is started according to the movement of the object image, cases where cracking is started according to the movement of the movable body 32, and cases where cracking is started according to the movement of the object image and the movable body 32. Although we have exemplified a case in which cracking starts regardless of the movement, and a certain form, the present invention is not limited to this. Alternatively, the cracking may be started in all effects depending on the movement of the movable body 32, or the cracking may be started in all effects regardless of the object image or the movement of the movable body 32. In addition, although the movable body 32 as a logo accessory is used as an example of the movable body, a board-side movable body provided elsewhere on the game board 2 may be applied, or a movable body provided on a board other than the game board 2 A frame-side movable body provided in the gaming machine frame 3 may be applied. Furthermore, cracking may be started according to the operation of a movable body such as the special variable winning ball device 7.

Furthermore, in the embodiment, when the cracking of the cracking effect is started, the whiteout image 006SG303 with a transmittance of 0% is displayed as an effect image in a display layer higher than the glass plate image 006SG301. Although the embodiment has been exemplified in which the fragment image 006SG302 is difficult to visually recognize in the period immediately after the start of the effect, the present invention is not limited to this. It is not necessary to make it difficult to visually recognize 006SG302.

Furthermore, in the embodiment, by displaying the whiteout image 006SG303 with a transmittance of 0% on a display layer higher than the glass plate image 006SG301, it is made difficult to visually recognize the fragment image 006SG302 at the start of the crack effect. Although the present invention is not limited to this, the transmittance of the fragment image 006SG302 is increased at the start of the cracking effect, that is, by displaying the fragment image 006SG302 in a fade-in manner, the breaking effect can be started. It may be made difficult to visually recognize the fragment image 006SG302 at this time.

Furthermore, in the embodiment described above, the glass plate image 006SG301 is drawn and arranged to display the crack in the layer 4 image drawing area, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is displayed as an image of the actual crack (changes to the fragment image 006SG302) in the layer 5 image drawing area. Although the form in which the glass plate image 006SG301A is drawn and placed is illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is drawn and placed in the layer 4 image drawing area, and the glass plate image 006SG301 is drawn and placed in the layer 5 image drawing area. In this case, a fragment image 006SG302 is drawn and placed as an image in which the glass plate image 006SG301 is broken, and the glass plate image 006SG301A may not be drawn and placed.

In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , the form in which the glass plate image 006SG301 and the glass plate image 006SG301A are displayed in the strong development effect B, the cut-in effect, and the result notification effect have been exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this, and they may be displayed in a cracked manner. The transmittance of the glass plate image 006SG301 for displaying the glass plate image 006SG301A may be different from the transmittance of the glass plate image 006SG301A for displaying the broken image. For example, the transmittance of glass plate image 006SG301A to be displayed in a cracked manner is made higher than the transmittance of glass plate image 006SG301 to be displayed in a cracked manner (glass plate image 006SG301 is made a non-transparent image). ), the timing at which a crack is displayed and the timing at which a crack effect is executed can be made easier to understand than in the embodiment described above.

Furthermore, in the embodiment described above, at the timing when the glass plate image 006SG301 displayed in a cracked manner in the layer 4 image drawing area is hidden, the display of the glass plate image 006SG301A that changes to a cracked aspect in the layer 5 image drawing area is performed. Although the starting form is illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this, and the display timings of the glass plate image 006SG301 displayed in the cracked form and the glass plate image 006SG301A that changes to the cracked form overlap at least in part. It's okay.

Further, in the embodiment described above, the glass plate image 006SG301 displayed in a cracked manner is illustrated as the crack precursor image in the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the crack precursor image is The glass plate image 006SG301A displayed instead of the plate image 006SG301 may be an image other than the cracked glass plate image 006SG301 as long as it is an image that suggests that the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken.

In addition, in the embodiment, the character kicks the glass plate image 006SG301 (see FIG. 56), hammers (see FIG. 60), punches ( 62), etc., the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the cracking effects of background change effect A, reach suggestion effect, and weak development effect are illustrated As a form in which the character acts on the glass plate 006SG301, in addition to or in place of the kick, hammer, punch, etc. described above, the glass plate image 006SG301A may be broken by the action of a slash with a sword or the like. In particular, the background change effect of this embodiment includes background change effect A in which the character acts on the glass plate image 006SG301 with a kick, causing the glass plate image 006SG301A to break (it breaks due to the impact of the kick); In addition to background change effect B in which the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks without any action (see Figure 41), as described above, the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks when the character acts on the glass plate image 006SG301 with a sword (the sword The background change effect C (broken by a slash) can be executed, and the rate at which the jackpot game state is controlled can be varied depending on whether or not the character acts on the glass plate 006SG301 and the manner in which the character acts on the glass plate image 006SG301. good. By doing so, it is possible to increase the number of effect patterns in which the glass plate 006SG301A breaks that can be executed as a breaking effect, and it is possible to further increase the player's attention to the breaking effect.

In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , In the strong development effect B, the cut-in effect, and the crack effect as the result notification effect, by displaying the whiteout image 006SG303 from the timing when the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks, the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed instead of the glass plate image 006SG301. Although the present invention is not limited to this example, the glass plate image 006SG301A may be displayed instead of the cracked glass plate image 006SG301. The whiteout image 006SG303 may not be displayed from the timing when the glass plate image 006SG301A starts to break. By doing so, it is possible to increase the sense of speed from when the glass plate image 006SG301 in the form of a crack is displayed until the glass plate image 006SG301A breaks, and to provide a powerful and memorable breaking effect.

Furthermore, if the whiteout image 006SG303 is not displayed as a crack effect as described above, instead of displaying the glass plate image 006SG301A instead of the glass plate image 006SG301 in the crack mode, the glass plate image 006SG301 in the crack mode itself is broken. It may be displayed as follows. By doing this, the glass plate image 006SG301A is not displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301, so when the cracking effect is executed, the glass plate image 006SG301A is displayed in place of the glass plate image 006SG301, so that the game This can prevent people from feeling uncomfortable.

Furthermore, in the embodiment described above, when the cracking effect is executed as background change effect A and background change effect B, the transparent fragment image 006SG302 is displayed, but the present invention is limited to this. Instead, when the cracking effect is executed as background change effect A and background change effect B, the fragment image 006SG302 without transparency may be displayed. In particular, if the transparent fragment image 006SG302 is displayed when the cracking effect is executed as background change effect A or background change effect B, the display on the image display device 5 until immediately before the cracking effect is executed. A part of the background image displayed in the area may be displayed in the fragment image 006SG302.

In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , strong development performance B, cut-in performance, and result notification performance have been exemplified forms in which the cracking performance can be executed, but the present invention is not limited to this, and these first continuous cracking performances and second continuous cracking performances are illustrated. , dialogue preview performance, background change performance A, background change performance B, pseudo continuous performance, reach suggestion performance, weak development performance, strong development performance A, strong development performance B, cut-in performance, cracking performance as a performance other than result notification performance may be executable. For example, a jackpot game state that is variable and has a low advantage for the player (for example, a non-probable variable jackpot that is controlled to a time-saving state after the jackpot game ends, or a jackpot game with a probability variable jackpot C in which the number of rounds is 2) At the timing after the player is notified that the game will be controlled in a variable state), or in the jackpot game state after the end of the variable display, a jackpot game state that is highly advantageous for the player (for example, a jackpot game state that is controlled to a variable probability state after the end of the jackpot game) A promotion effect that once again announces that the jackpot game state will be controlled in the jackpot game state of the probability variable jackpot A (which is a jackpot with 10 rounds and the number of rounds is 10), or a promotion effect that announces that the jackpot game state will not be controlled because it is in a variable display. After that, a cracking effect may be executed as a revival effect to once again notify that the game is controlled to a jackpot gaming state.

In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , When performing a cracking effect as a strong development effect B, a cut-in effect, or a result notification effect, the display of the whiteout image 006SG303 and the glass plate image are performed after the actions of the character and movable body 32, the display of cracks, etc. Although the form in which the cracking of 006SG301A is performed is illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this, and these cracking effects can be performed by whiteout without the action of the character or movable body 32 or the display of cracks, etc. A case may be provided in which the image 006SG303 is displayed or the glass plate image 006SG301A is broken. By doing so, it is possible to give the player a sense of surprise due to the execution of the cracking effect, thereby improving the interest in the game.

In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect are shown as examples in which the glass plate image 006SG301 (and the glass plate image 006SG301A) are targeted for cracking, but the present invention is limited to this. Instead, for these cracking effects, an image other than the glass plate image 006SG301 or the glass plate image 006SG301A may be used as a crack target (for example, the operation promotion image 006SG310 in the case of a cracking effect of a dialogue preview effect or a cut-in effect).

In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , In the cracking effects of strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect, by displaying the whiteout image 006SG303 as an image higher than the glass plate image 006SG301A and the background image, the glass plate image 006SG301A, the broken image 006SG302, Although at least a part of the background image is temporarily made invisible to the player, the present invention is not limited to this. It may be displayed as an image between the image 006SG301A and the background image.

Furthermore, in the embodiment, as the breaking effect of the background change effect A and the reach suggestion effect, the character acts on the glass plate image 006SG301 from the back side of the display area of the image display device 5 toward the front side. Although shown as an example, the present invention is not limited to this, and these cracking effects can be achieved by drawing and arranging the character image in a drawing area higher than the glass plate image 006SG301 (see FIGS. 3 and 3). 4), the character may act on the glass plate image 006SG301 from the front side to the back side of the display area of the image display device 5.

In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect in which the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed as an ordinary flat image. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the strong development effect In the cracking effect, which is a performance that suggests that the rate of control to the jackpot game state is higher than when other performances are executed due to the fact that it is executed like a cut-in production or a cut-in production, the broken image 006SG302 can be viewed stereoscopically. It may also be displayed as a 3D image. By doing this, when performing a strong development effect or a cut-in effect, the display of the 3D fragment image 006SG302 as a breaking effect makes the player aware that there is a high probability of being controlled to a jackpot game state. I can do it.

In addition, in the embodiment, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the pseudo continuous effect, the reach suggestion effect, the weak development effect, and the strong development effect A. , the form in which the fragment image 006SG302 is displayed in the cracking effect of strong development effect B, cut-in effect, and result notification effect has been exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention is not limited to this. The fact that the performance itself is executed as such suggests that the rate of control to the jackpot game state is higher than when other performances are executed, and the cracking performance in performances other than these strong development performances and cut-in performances. The moving display speed of the fragment image 006SG302 may be made different between the two. By doing this, for example, the moving display speed of the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a cracking effect of a strong development effect or a cut-in effect can be changed to the first continuous breaking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, and the background change effect. A, Background change effect B, Pseudo continuous effect, Reach suggestion effect, Weak development effect, By setting the movement display speed slower than the moving display speed of the fragment image 006SG302 displayed as a cracking effect in the result notification effect, strong development effect or cut-in When the performance is executed, the moving display speed of the fragment image 006SG302 allows the player to recognize that the probability of being controlled to a jackpot gaming state is high.

In addition, in the embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 70 and 71, the first continuous cracking effect, the second continuous breaking effect, the dialogue preview effect, the background change effect A, the background change effect B, the reach suggestion effect, and the weak development effect. As the cracking effects of the production, strong development production A, strong development production B, cut-in production, and result notification production, the transparent fragment image 006SG302 is displayed, while as the cracking production of the pseudo continuous production and the weak development production. , the form of displaying the fragment image 006SG302 without transparency has been exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this, and by itself being executed like a strong development effect or a cut-in effect, other effects can be realized. The presence or absence of transparency of the fragment image 006SG302 is determined by the cracking effect in the effect that suggests that the proportion of control to the jackpot game state is higher than when executing , and the breaking effect in effects other than these strong development effects and cut-in effects. It may be different. By doing so, it is possible to make the player recognize whether or not there is a high probability of being controlled to a jackpot game state, depending on whether or not the fragment image 006SG302 displayed by the execution of the cracking effect is transparent.

Furthermore, in the above embodiment, a spherical game ball (pachinko ball) is used as an example of the game medium, but the game medium is not limited to a spherical game medium, and for example, non-spherical game balls such as medals, It may be a medium.

Furthermore, in the embodiment described above, a pachinko game machine is applied as an example of a game machine, but a game can be started by setting a predetermined number of bets for one game using, for example, a game value. At the same time, one game ends when a variable display result is derived to a variable display device capable of variably displaying a plurality of types of symbols, each of which can be identified. It is also applicable to slot machines that allow winnings to occur. In the case of a slot machine, the normal state is a non-AT state, the advantageous state is a big bonus, regular bonus, assist time (AT), and the special state is assist time (AT).

Moreover, in the embodiment, by allowing the game ball to enter the big winning hole, more prize balls are paid out than when the game ball enters the starting winning hole or the general winning hole 10. Although the present invention is not limited to this example, the present invention is not limited to this, and it becomes easier to control the jackpot game state in which the game ball enters the winning hole more easily than in the normal state. A time-saving state or a variable probability state may be set as an advantageous state as long as it is a gaming state that is advantageous to a player such as the player.

Furthermore, the gaming machine of the present invention can also be applied to an enclosed gaming machine, a slot machine, etc. that encloses gaming media and awards points based on the occurrence of winnings. Furthermore, the gaming machine that allows games may be any machine that allows at least playing games, and is not limited to pachinko gaming machines or slot machines, but may be general gaming machines.
