Description

  The present invention executes a variable display game based on the execution right stored in the start storage means, and the random display game is stored when the random value stored in correspondence with the execution right is a predetermined specific value. And a special gaming state that is advantageous for the player and a special result.

  Conventionally, a variable display device capable of displaying a variable display game based on a plurality of identification information is provided, and the variable display game is executed based on a start memory stored by winning a game ball at a start winning opening. There is known a gaming machine that generates a special gaming state advantageous to a player when the result mode is a special result. Also known is a gaming machine that gives an additional game value after the end of the special gaming state.

  Additional game value includes the occurrence of a so-called special figure probability change state in which the probability of a special result (probability of occurrence of a special game state) in the variable display game is higher than usual, or the start prize opening is in an open state and a closed state A normal variation display device that can be converted into a normal variation display device and an ordinary variation display device that gives an opportunity to convert the normal variation prize winning device to an open state, so that the probability that a hit is displayed on the normal variation display device is increased. The normal figure short-time state where the number of conversions to the open state per unit time was increased by shortening the fluctuation time of the normal fluctuation display game on the normal fluctuation display device and the normal fluctuation display game on the normal fluctuation display device, and also the normal fluctuation display game. In such a case, there is an extended open time state in which the open time of the normally variable winning device is extended from the normal time. In any case, start winnings are more frequent than usual, and the variable display game can be executed a specified number of times while suppressing the consumption of game media (mostly maintaining the current status).

And, for example, it is considered that the condition for continuing the above-mentioned normal time state is set by the number of times of the variable display game, and the number of times of the variable display game is set, that is, the continuous condition of the normal time state is set multiple times A gaming machine in which the additional game value amount is changed by doing so is also considered (see, for example, Patent Document 1). On the other hand, when the random number value stored in correspondence with the start memory of the start memory means is a specific value for generating a special gaming state (big hit), the start memory stored before the start memory 2. Description of the Related Art A gaming machine having a function of notifying that a special gaming state occurs in a variable display game executed by digestion of the game is known (see, for example, Patent Document 2).
JP-A-9-215828 JP-A-8-243224

  However, with regard to the conventional notice notification function, there is only an effect of notifying the player of the occurrence of a special gaming state that can be easily understood, and if only the notice notification function is activated, the player pays attention only to the notice. Therefore, the interest for the variable display game is reduced. On the other hand, in the gaming machines in which different additional game values are selected and given after the end of the special game state, in recent years, there are many cases where the additional game value is determined by the type of special result of the variable display game. Yes. In the case of such a gaming machine, for example, a special gaming state with a short time of 100 normal times is first generated, and after the special gaming state is finished, the number of times of a slightly variable display game (for example, 4 times) is next. When a special game state of 30 occurs and 30 times of normal times are selected in the special game state, the number of times is 30 for the player even though the short time of normal times was initially 100 times. The impression that has been reduced to the times is strong, and it will be dissatisfied for the player. Especially in the case of recent gaming machines, there are many cases where the number of game media obtained in one special game state is small, and if the display game can be executed only about 40 times by using the game media, Even if the second special game state occurs, when the first 100 variable display games are executed thereafter, the game medium held by the second special game state is reduced. The dissatisfaction for the player is great.

  Similarly, when the probability variation is determined by the type of the special result of the variation display game, the probability variation occurs in the first special gaming state, and after the special gaming state ends, the next special game is already stored in the start memory. If a gaming state occurs and the probability variation ends in that special gaming state, the player will complete the probability variation before fully enjoying whether the next special gaming state is associated with the probability variation. If the starting memory that would cause the next special gaming state is stored before the first special gaming state occurs, the first special game The end of the special gaming state has already been decided at the time when the state occurs, and it will be frightened.

  An object of the present invention is to execute a variable display game based on the execution right stored in the start storage means, and when the random number stored corresponding to the execution right is a predetermined specific value, the change In a gaming machine in which the result of the displayed game is a special result and a special gaming state that is advantageous to the player is generated, the player is prevented from being dissatisfied with the added value of the added game. It is to prevent the interest of the fall.

In order to solve the above-described problems, the invention described in claim 1 is a variable display device that displays a variable display game that displays a plurality of pieces of identification information in a variable manner and then stops and displays a predetermined result .
Starting storage means for storing the execution right of the variable display game together with a random value based on winning of the game ball in the starting winning opening;
The variable display game is executed based on the execution right stored in the start storage means, and the result of the variable display game when the random value stored corresponding to the execution right is a predetermined specific value. In a gaming machine that has a special result and a special gaming state that is advantageous to the player,
A random number is extracted based on the winning of a game ball at the start winning opening, and whether or not to add an additional gaming value separately from the special gaming state based on the extracted random value, or an additional gaming value amount to be given Additional game value determining means for determining
Informing means for informing a determination result determined by the additional game value determining means in relation to the occurrence of the special gaming state;
With
The type of the special result selected from a plurality of display modes based on the random number value and the additional game value amount are set in correspondence with each other,
The notification means includes
When the determination result determined by the additional game value determining means is notified by the display form of the special result when the variable display game is stopped , the random number value prefetched result stored in the start storage means at that time, When the variable display game that is the special result is scheduled to be executed, the notification is made based on a comparison determination result between the additional game value for the variable display game scheduled to be executed and the additional game value for the current variable display game. A notification change means is provided for changing the determination result to a display form of a special result of a type different from the type of the special result corresponding to the determined determination result .

Here, the determination of the occurrence of the special gaming state and the determination of the amount of additional game value and the like may be performed by extracting different random numbers or may be performed by the same random number. For example, when the same random number is used, a range is set for random values that will be in a special gaming state, and the range is further subdivided to determine the type of special result.
In addition, “addition of additional game value” means, for example, when there are a normal probability state and a high probability state where the probability is higher than the normal probability state as the probability that a special result is derived in the variable display game. It is assumed to be a probability state. In addition, for example, in the case of having a normal variation winning device that is converted to an open state based on the result of the usual variation display game being a specific result and can increase the winning rate of the game ball to the starting winning opening It is also possible to generate a normal time short state that shortens the execution time of the normal time variable display game, or a normal power open time extended state that lengthens the conversion period to 1 open state. Moreover, it is good also as setting it as a high probability state when there exists a normal probability state and a high probability state with a higher probability than this normal probability state as a probability that a specific result will be derived | led-out in a usual fluctuation display game.
The notification of the determination result determined by the additional game value determining means may be notified by another method in addition to the notification based on the type of special result, for example, by performing a notification-only game.
Also, “in relation to the occurrence of a special gaming state” may be during a variable display game (including when a special result is derived) or during a special gaming state thereafter. Further, it may be possible to add an additional game value after the special game state ends.
In addition, the “variable display device” may be either a special-purpose display device or a display device (production display device).
Also, “prefetching” determines the random number value related to the special game state and the random number value related to the additional game value by determining the information stored in the start storage means before the execution of the variable display game. In addition, the timing of “look ahead” may be any time.
Further, “changing the determination result to be notified” does not change the additional game value but only changes the notification content. In other words, it can be paraphrased as “notify the determined result to be replaced with another determined result”.

  This effect control device 40 is based on various signals (effect control data (such as various commands)) received from the game control device 30 via the communication interface 40d (under the control of the game control device 30). Control is performed. The input / output interface 40e receives a detection signal from an operation button 41 provided on the front surface of the gaming machine, and the effect control device 40 is based on this detection signal (the game control device 30). The game effect is controlled (under the control of).

Further, a control signal related to the control of sound is output from the CPU 40a to the sound LSI 40i, and sound data based on the control signal is output from the sound LSI 40i to the speaker 45.

  In addition, power is supplied to the game control device 30 from a power supply device (not shown), and power is also supplied to the other devices from the power supply device. In addition, the power supply device is equipped with a backup power supply to enable power supply even when the external power supply is interrupted, such as during a power failure, and is stored in the volatile memory of each control device during a power failure. The loss of recorded data is prevented.

In these control devices, the following game control is performed.
The game control device 30 mainly performs main processing shown in FIG. 3 and timer interrupt processing shown in FIG. 4 performed every predetermined time (for example, every 2 msec) as processing related to the game.

  In the main process, the entire program is controlled. As shown in FIG. 3, in the main process, the process at the start of the program is first performed. As processing at the start of the program, first, initialization processing at power-on (step S1) is performed, and then power failure recovery processing (step S2) is performed.

  Next, loop processing is performed as main loop processing. In this loop process, first, a process for starting an interrupt timer (step S3) is performed to start a CTC (counter timer circuit). Next, an interrupt prohibition process (step S4) is performed, and an initial value random number update process (step S5) for breaking the temporal regularity of the random number by updating the initial value of a random number such as a jackpot determination random number. Do. Thereafter, a big hit symbol random number initial value updating process (step S6) for updating the initial value of the big hit symbol random number for determining the big hit symbol of the special figure variation display game is performed, and an interrupt is permitted (step S7). . In the initial value random number update process (step S5) and the big hit symbol random number initial value update process (step S6), the same applies to each of the random numbers for the first special figure variable display game and the second special figure variable display game. Is processed.

  Then, the power failure inspection area of the RAM 31c is checked to determine whether or not a power failure has occurred (step S8). Note that, in the power failure inspection area, check data is set when the power of the gaming machine is cut off due to a power failure, and the check data is not normally stored. Therefore, it can be determined whether or not a power failure has occurred by determining the presence or absence of the check data.

  In the determination of whether or not a power failure has occurred (step S8), if a power failure has not occurred (step S7; No), the process returns to the above-described processing for prohibiting interruption (step S4), and thereafter the power supply is shut off. If not, the determination (step S7) of whether or not a power failure has occurred is repeated from the process for prohibiting interruption (step S4).

  On the other hand, in the determination of whether or not a power failure has occurred (step S8), if a power failure has occurred (step S8; Yes), a power failure process (step S9) is performed. Immediately after the occurrence of a power failure, the backup power supply supplies power that can execute the processing when the power failure occurs.

  In the power failure process (step S9), first, a process for prohibiting interruption is performed. And the process which turns off all the output ports is performed, and the process which clears a power failure inspection area | region is performed. Further, after performing the process of saving the power failure recovery inspection area check data in the power failure recovery inspection area, performing the process of calculating the checksum when the power of the RAM 31c is turned off, and performing the process of prohibiting access to the RAM 31c, the gaming machine Wait for the power to turn off. Thus, by saving the power failure recovery inspection area check data in the power failure recovery inspection area and calculating the checksum at the time of power interruption, the information stored in the RAM 31c before the power interruption is correctly backed up. Can be determined at power-on.

  Next, timer interrupt processing will be described. As shown in FIG. 4, in this timer interrupt process, first, a process of saving the register data (step S10) is performed. Next, from various sensors (first start port SW13a, second start port SW7d, gate SW4a, winning port SW12a, 12a,..., Count SW10c, glass frame opening SW146, gaming machine frame opening SW121, out of ball SW122, etc.) Based on input processing and output data set in various processing, input / output processing (step S11) for performing output processing for controlling the driving of actuators such as solenoids (large prize opening SOL10b, general electric power SOL7b), etc. Do.

  Next, a command transmission process (step S12) is performed for outputting the command set in the transmission buffer in various processes to the effect control device 40 and the like. Then, a special figure random number update process (step S13) for updating the big hit determination random number for determining the hit loss of the special figure variation display game and the big hit symbol random number for determining the big hit symbol of the special figure fluctuation display game. Do. In the special figure random number update process (step S13), the same process is performed for each of the random numbers for the first special figure fluctuation display game and the random numbers for the second special figure fluctuation display game. Thereafter, a general-purpose random number update process (step S14) for updating a hit random number for determining a hit-off of the normal-variation display game is performed, and a reach for determining whether or not a reach state is generated in the special-fluctuation display game. A reach random number and fluctuation pattern random number update process (step S15) for updating a random number and a fluctuation pattern random number for determining a fluctuation pattern in a special figure fluctuation display game is performed.

  Next, whether there is a signal input from the first start port SW13a, the second start port SW7d, the gate SW4a, the winning ports SW12a, 12a,..., The count SW10c (whether a signal indicating detection of a game ball is input) A winning opening switch monitoring process (step S16) is performed. Then, an error monitoring process (step S17) for monitoring each signal and error is performed, and a first special figure game process (step S18) for performing a process related to the first special figure fluctuation display game, and a second special figure fluctuation display game. The second special figure game process (step S19) for performing the process and the general figure game process (step S20) for performing the process related to the common figure display game are performed.

  Next, a segment LED editing process (step S21) that is provided in the gaming machine 100 and performs a process related to the segment LED that displays various information related to the game is performed. Then, an external information editing process (step S22) is performed in which a signal to be output to the external management apparatus is set in the output buffer. Next, an interrupt end declaration process (step S23) is performed, a process for restoring the saved register data (step S24) is performed, an interrupt permission process (step S25) is performed, and a timer interrupt process is performed. finish.

  And in the game control apparatus 30, mainly based on the input of the detection signal of the game ball | bowl from gate SW4a with which the usual figure start gate 4 was equipped in the usual figure game process (step S20) among the above processes, A random number value for determining the hit of the usual figure is extracted and compared with the decision value stored in the ROM 31b, and a process of determining whether or not the hit of the usual figure variation display game is determined. Then, after the normal identification information is variably displayed on the normal display 5 for a predetermined time, a process for displaying a general variability display game to be stopped is performed. When the result of this normal map change display game is a win, a special result mode (specific result) is displayed on the general map display 5 and the general electric power SOL 7b is operated to open / close members 7a, Control is performed to release 7a as described above for a predetermined time (for example, 0.3 seconds). In addition, when the result of the normal map change display game is out of order, control is performed to display the result form of the shift on the general map display 5.

  The operation state of the normal variation winning device 7 includes two operation states, a normal operation state (first operation state) and a short-time operation state (second operation state). It is supposed to be set. That is, the game control device 30 serves as an operation state setting means for setting the operation state of the normal variation winning device 7. In the normal operation state, the variation display time of the usual variation display game is a first variation display time (for example, 30 seconds). Further, the release mode when the normal variation winning game 7 is released as a result of the normal variation display game being won is the first release time (for example, 0.3 seconds), and the general variation display game is The number of times of opening for one hit result is the first number of times of opening (for example, once). The short-time operation state is a state in which the operation state of the normal variation winning device 7 is more likely to be an open state than the normal operation state. At this time, in the short operation state, the execution time of the above-described normal variation display game is controlled to be a second variation display time shorter than the first variation display time which is a long execution time in the normal operation state (for example, , 0.5 seconds), thereby controlling the number of times of opening of the normally variable winning device 7 per unit time to be substantially increased. Further, in the short-time operation state, when the normal variation winning game 7 is released as a result of winning the normal variation display game, the release time is the second release time (for example, 1 second). The number of times of opening for one hit result of the variable display game is the second number of times of opening (for example, 3 times). In the short-time operation state, control may be performed such that the probability that the hit result of the normal-variation display game is higher than that in the normal operation state. That is, in the short-time operation state, the number of times the normal variation winning device 7 is released is increased compared to the normal operation state, and it becomes easier for a game ball to win the normal variation winning device 7, and the second special figure variable display game can be easily started. State.

  In the game control device 30, the game ball from the first start opening SW13a provided in the first start winning opening 13 mainly in the special figure 1 game process (step S18) and the special figure 2 game process (step S19). Based on the input of this detection signal, a random number for determining the big hit of the first special figure variation display game is extracted and stored in the RAM 31c as a first start memory up to a predetermined upper limit number (for example, 4). That is, the game control device 30 constitutes a first start storage means for storing the right to execute the first variable display game together with a random value based on the winning of the game ball in the first start winning opening 13 (first start winning area). . Similarly, based on the input of the detection signal of the game ball from the second starting port SW7d provided in the normal variation winning device 7, the random number value for determining the big hit of the second special figure variation display game is extracted and stored in the RAM 31c. A process of storing up to the upper limit number (for example, 4) as the second start memory is performed. That is, the game control device 30 stores the right to execute the second variation display game together with the random number value based on the winning of the game ball in the second start winning opening (normal variation winning device 7, second start winning area). A starting storage means is provided. Therefore, the game control device 30 stores the right to execute the variable display game up to a predetermined upper limit number together with the random value based on the winning of the game ball in the starting winning area (the first starting winning port 13, the normal variable winning device 7). A starting storage means is provided.

  Also, at the start of the first special figure variation display game based on the first start memory, the big hit determination random number value stored in the first start memory is the big hit for the first special figure variable display game stored in the ROM 31b. Compared with a determination value (specific value), a process of determining a miss of the first special figure variation display game is performed. Further, after this processing, the first start memory number is decremented by one. Similarly, at the start of the second special figure variation display game based on the second start memory, the jackpot determination random number value stored in the second start memory is used for the second special figure variation display game stored in the ROM 31b. Compared with the big hit determination value (specific value), a process of determining a hit loss of the second special figure variation display game is performed. Further, after this processing, the second start memory number is subtracted by one. In both the first start memory and the second start memory, a determination is made as to whether to generate a reach based on the reach random number, and a process for determining the variation pattern based on the variation pattern random number. Further, when the jackpot determination random number value matches the jackpot determination value, processing for selecting a special result mode based on the jackpot symbol random number is performed. In other words, the game control device 30 serves as a determination unit that compares and determines a random value stored in the start storage unit (game control device 30) with a specific value.

  Here, there are two probability states, a normal probability state (first probability state) and a probability variation state (second probability state), in the probability state, which is a state of probability that a special result mode is derived in the special figure variation display game. In the game control device 30, any one probability state is set. The probability variation state is a state in which the probability of a hit result in the special figure variation display game is higher than the normal probability state. In the normal probability state, a predetermined number of first determination values are set as specific values, and the specific value (first determination value) is compared with a jackpot determination random number value. Yes. In addition, in the probability variation state, the first determination value and the second determination value different from the first determination value are set as the specific value, and the specific value (first determination value, second determination value), the jackpot determination random number value, Are compared, and if they match, the jackpot is determined. That is, the game control device 30 serves as a probability variation control means capable of controlling the probability that the result of the special figure variation display game will be in the special result mode in either the normal probability state or the probability variation state. In the gaming machine of this embodiment, the probability that the special result mode is derived is 1/99 in the normal probability state and 10/99 in the probability variation state. It should be noted that the first special figure fluctuation display game and the second special figure fluctuation regardless of whether the first special figure fluctuation display game or the second special figure fluctuation display game results in the result mode of the special figure fluctuation display game. Both display games are in a probable state. Further, when the condition for entering the normal probability state is satisfied, both the first special figure fluctuation display game and the second special figure fluctuation display game are in the normal probability state. The establishment of the condition for entering the normal probability state is, for example, that a special figure variation display game has been executed a predetermined number of times in the occurrence of a special gaming state and the probability variation state.

  In addition, as described above, the operation state of the normal variation winning device 7 includes a normal operation state and a short-time operation state, and the probability state in the special figure variation display game includes a normal probability state and a probability variation state. These combinations constitute three game states, a normal game state, a probability change game state, and a short-time game state, and the game control device 30 sets any one game state based on a predetermined condition. The normal game state is a game state in which the operation state of the normal variation winning device 7 is the normal operation state, and the probability state of the special figure variable display game is the normal probability state. Further, the probability variation gaming state is a gaming state in which the operation state of the normal variation winning device 7 is the short-time operation state and the probability state of the special figure variation display game is the probability variation state. The short-time game state is a game state in which the operation state of the normal variation winning device 7 is the short-time operation state, and the probability state of the special figure variable display game is the normal probability state.

  In addition, the game control device 30 determines a jackpot determination random number value, a jackpot symbol random number, a reach random number, or the like stored in the first start memory at a predetermined timing (arbitrary timing such as a start winning prize). Then, pre-reading processing is performed to determine whether or not the first special figure variation display game has been hit or missed (special result mode type) or reach has occurred. Similarly, the game control device 30 determines a jackpot determination random number value, a jackpot symbol random number, a reach random number, or the like stored in the second start memory at a predetermined timing (arbitrary timing such as a start winning prize). Then, a pre-reading process is performed to determine whether or not the second special figure variation display game has been missed, the jackpot symbol (special result type), or reach has occurred. That is, the game control device 30 serves as prefetching means for prefetching random number values stored in the start storage means at a predetermined timing. The results of these determinations are transmitted from the game control device 30 to the effect control device 40 as result information. Note that the pre-reading process is always performed for the second start memory regardless of the gaming state. For the first start memory, the pre-reading process is not performed in the game state (probability change game state, time-short game state) in which the operation state of the normal variation winning device 7 is the short-time operation state or the special game state. Furthermore, when the special result mode is derived in the game state (normal game state) in which the operation state of the normal variation winning device 7 is the normal operation state, the result of the pre-reading process performed for the first start memory is deleted.

  Here, the reach (reach state) includes the display device 43 whose display state can be changed, and the display device 43 derives and displays a plurality of display results at different times, and the plurality of display results are preliminarily displayed. In a gaming machine in which the gaming state becomes a gaming state advantageous to the player (special gaming state) when the specified special result mode is achieved, a part of the plurality of display results is not yet derived and displayed. The display state in which the display result that has already been derived and displayed satisfies the condition for the special result mode. In other words, the reach state is deviated from the display condition that is a special result mode even when the display control of the display device 43 progresses to reach the stage before the display result is derived and displayed. A display mode that is not. For example, a state where so-called full-rotation reach is performed in a variable display region while maintaining a state in which special result modes are aligned (so-called full rotation reach) is also included in the reach state. The reach state is a display state when the display control of the display device 43 progresses and reaches a stage before the display result is derived and displayed, and is determined before the display result is derived and displayed. The display state in the case where at least a part of the display results of the plurality of variable display areas that have been performed satisfies the conditions for the special result mode.

  Thus, for example, a decoration variation display game displayed on the display device 43 corresponding to the special figure variation display game varies a plurality of identification information for a predetermined time in each of the left, middle, and right variation display areas on the display device 43. After displaying, when the display of the result mode is stopped in the order of left, right, and middle, the condition that becomes the special result mode is satisfied in the left and right variable display areas (for example, The state in which the variable display is stopped with the same identification information) is the reach state. In addition to this, when the variable display of all the variable display areas is temporarily stopped, the condition that the special result mode is satisfied in any two of the left, middle, and right variable display areas (for example, the same The state in which the identification information is obtained (except for the special result mode) may be set as the reach state, and the remaining one variable display area may be variably displayed from the reach state. The reach state includes a plurality of reach effects, and the possibility of deriving a special result form is different (reliability is different). As the reach effects, normal reach, special reach 1 (SP1 reach), special reach 2 ( SP2 reach) is set. In addition, this reach state is included in at least a variation mode when a special result mode is derived (in the case of a big hit) in the special figure variation display game. That is, it may be included in the variation mode in the case where the special result mode is not derived in the special figure variation display game (when it is out of place). Therefore, the state in which the reach state has occurred is a state that is more likely to be a big hit than the case in which the reach state does not occur.

  In addition, a plurality of settings are prepared for reach determination values for determining reach random numbers so that the occurrence rate of the reach state differs depending on the gaming state and the starting memory number. As shown in FIG. 5, the reach random number is extracted from 256 values from 0 to 255 at the time of starting winning. When the game state is the probability change game state and the short time game state at the start of the special figure variation display game, the reach state is generated when the reach random number is a value in the range of a (0 to 13). The incidence rate of the reach state at this time is about 1/20. Further, when the game state is the normal game state at the start of the special figure variable display game and the start memory number (the sum of the first start memory and the second start memory) is 4 or more, the reach random number is b When the value is in the range (0 to 21), the reach state is generated. The range of b includes all of the range of a. The occurrence rate of the reach state at this time is about 1/12. In addition, when the special figure variation display game is started, the game state is the normal game state, and when the starting memory number is 3 or less, the reach random number is a value in the range of c (0 to 37), and reach Generate a state. The range of c includes all of the ranges of a and b. The occurrence rate of the reach state at this time is about 1/7. Thus, by making the occurrence rate of the reach state different according to the game state or the like, it is possible to prevent the game from becoming redundant or monotonous, and to prevent a decrease in the interest of the game.

  Furthermore, with respect to the first start memory, since the pre-reading process is not performed when the gaming state is the special gaming state, the probability variation gaming state, and the short-time gaming state, or the pre-notification is not performed even if the pre-reading process is performed, the reach random number When the value is in the range of b, the reach state always occurs regardless of the state at the start of the special figure variation display game. As for the second start memory, when the reach random number is a value in the range of a, the reach state always occurs regardless of the state at the start of the special figure display game. Therefore, the game control device 30 determines whether or not the reach random number is a value in a range in which the reach state is always generated regardless of the state at the start of the special figure variation display game, and determines the result by the above-described prefetch processing. It is made to transmit to the production control device 40. Then, in the effect control device 40, when the reach random number is a value in a range in which the reach state is always generated regardless of the state at the start of the special figure variation display game, for example, the special control based on a plurality of start memories over the start memory. A process of executing a continuous notice for performing a notice effect continuously over the figure variation display game is performed. At this time, a reach state always occurs in the special figure variation display game in which the final stage of the continuous notice is executed. Note that the reach random number setting value and the reach determination value setting value shown here are merely examples, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

  Then, the game control device 30 displays the special identification information on the first special figure display 8 or the second special figure display 9 in a fluctuating manner for a predetermined time based on the determination result of the start memory as described above, and then displays the stop display. The process which displays the special figure fluctuation display game to perform is performed. That is, the game control device 30 serves as a variation display control means capable of controlling the execution of the special figure variation display game based on the start-up memory. More specifically, as the first execution control means for controlling the execution of the first special figure fluctuation display game based on the first start memory, and the second special figure fluctuation display game based on the second start memory. It functions as a second execution control means for performing control.

  In addition, in the game control device 30, when the first start memory and the second start memory are stored, the execution control of the second special figure variable display game is given priority over the execution control of the first special figure variable display game. It is supposed to run. That is, when the game control device 30 stores the start memory in the first start storage means (game control device 30) and the second start storage means (game control device 30), the second execution control means (game control) Priority control means for executing control by the device 30) with priority over control by the first execution control means (game control device 30).

  In FIG. 6, the state transition diagram for demonstrating execution control of the 1st special figure fluctuation display game and the 2nd special figure fluctuation display game by the game control apparatus 30 was shown. Note that the same execution control is performed regardless of the above-described gaming state (normal gaming state, probability variation gaming state, short-time gaming state).

  When there is no first start memory and second start memory, the normal state ST1 (waiting for customer) is entered, and the generation of the first start memory (Special Figure 1 start memory) and the second start memory (Special Figure 2 start memory) is awaited. It becomes a state to do. Even in the state where the first start memory and the second start memory are present, the normal state ST1 is temporarily set after the end of the special figure variation display game where the result is out of date or after the end of the big hit state ST4 (special game state). In the normal state ST1, if there is no second start memory and there is a first start memory, the process proceeds to the first special figure fluctuation state (special figure 1 fluctuation state) ST2, and the first special figure fluctuation display game is executed. Further, if there is a second start memory in the normal state ST1, the process proceeds to the second special figure fluctuation state (special figure 2 fluctuation state) ST3, and the second special figure fluctuation display game is executed. Since the second start memory is preferentially digested over the first start memory, if there is a second start memory, the second special figure fluctuation state ST3 is entered even if there is the first start memory. Then, the second special figure variation display game is executed.

  The first special figure fluctuation state ST2 is a state in which the first special figure fluctuation display game is being executed, and when a special result mode is derived as a result of the first special figure fluctuation display game (when the jackpot condition is satisfied) ) Shifts to the jackpot state ST4 and enters a special game state. In the first special figure variation state ST2, if the result of the first special figure variation display game is not a big hit condition, the process returns to the normal state ST1.

  The second special figure fluctuation state ST3 is a state in which the second special figure fluctuation display game is being executed, and when a special result mode is derived as a result of the second special figure fluctuation display game (when the jackpot condition is satisfied) ) Shifts to the jackpot state ST4 and enters a special game state. In the second special figure fluctuation state ST3, when the result of the second special figure fluctuation display game is a failure that does not satisfy the jackpot condition, the process returns to the normal state ST1.

  The jackpot state ST4 is a state in which a special game state in which a predetermined game value can be given to the player is being executed. Then, when the special game state is finished in the jackpot state ST4, the process returns to the normal state ST1.

  Moreover, in the game control apparatus 30, when the result of a special figure fluctuation display game is a big hit, while displaying a special result aspect on a special figure display, the process which generates a special game state is performed. The special result mode displayed on the special chart display is determined based on the jackpot symbol random number extracted and stored simultaneously with the jackpot determination random number value. When the result of the special figure variation display game is out of order, the first special figure display 8 and the second special figure display 9 are controlled to display the result form of the deviation.

  Further, in the game control device 30, as a process for generating the special game state, for example, the open / close door 10a of the special variable prize winning device 10 is opened by the big prize opening SOL10b, thereby allowing the game ball to flow into the big prize opening. Take control. Then, a condition that either a predetermined number (for example, nine) of game balls wins the grand prize opening or a predetermined time (for example, 25 seconds or 0.3 seconds) elapses from the opening of the big prize opening is achieved. Opening the grand prize opening until one is made is defined as one round, and control (cycle game) is performed in which this is repeated (repeated) for a predetermined number of rounds (for example, 15 times, 7 times, or 2 times). Thereby, the gaming machine 100 functions as a gaming machine that generates a special gaming state that can give a predetermined gaming value to the player based on the result mode of the special figure variation display game.

  Further, in the game control device 30, payout control is performed based on detection signals of game balls input from sensors (first start port SW13a, second start port SW7d, winning port SW12a, count SW10c) provided at various winning ports. The device 125 is controlled so that a predetermined number of game balls are paid out from the discharging device.

  In addition, in the effect control device 40, based on a command signal from the game control device 30 (change time command, change stop command, etc.), the display device 43 displays a decoration special figure change display game corresponding to the special figure change display game. Controls processing and effects.

  Here, in the special result mode, a plurality of types in which the execution mode of the special game state and the amount of additional game value given to the player after the end of the special game state are set are set. A special result mode is selected based on a random number. That is, it can be said that the amount of additional game value is determined based on the jackpot symbol random number. The execution state of the special game state is the number of rounds that can be executed and the opening time of the special winning opening. Further, the amount of additional game value means that the number of special figure variable display games that can be executed in a state where the normal variable winning device 7 is in the short-time operation state (number of short-time operations) is different.

  The type of special result mode is a jackpot symbol 1 (first special result mode) in which the number of rounds in the special game state is 2 rounds and the number of time reductions after the end of the special game state is 100 times, the number of rounds is 7 rounds The jackpot symbol 2 (second special result mode) with 20 round-trip times, the jackpot symbol 3 (third special result mode) with 7 rounds and 50 round-trip times, and 15 rounds with round-trip times Four types of 100 big hit symbols 4 (fourth special result mode) are set. In the special game state based on the jackpot symbol 2, the jackpot symbol 3, and the jackpot symbol 4, the opening time of the big winning opening in each round is the first opening time (25 seconds), and the special game based on the first special game result In the state, the opening time of the special winning opening is the second opening time (0.3 seconds) shorter than the first opening time. Here, in the special game state based on the jackpot symbol 1, the operation of opening the grand prize winning opening for 0.3 seconds is performed twice with a wait time of 1 second. For this reason, it is very difficult for a game ball to win a big prize opening, but there is a possibility that it will slightly win a big prize opening, and a predetermined game value can be given to the player. In addition, although it is difficult to win a game ball in this way, it is monitored whether a predetermined number (for example, 9) of game balls wins a large winning opening as in the case of a special game state based on other special result modes. Is also done.

  In addition, even if any special result mode is derived, the probability state is changed to the probability change state after the special game state is ended and the eight special figure variation display games are ended, and the game state is the probability change game. State. Thereafter, the probability state is changed to the normal probability state, and the gaming state becomes the short-time gaming state. It should be noted that the number of time reductions includes 8 times that are assumed to be probability-changing game states. For example, if the number of time reductions is 100 times, the first 8 times are probability-change game states and the remaining 92 times are time-shortage games It becomes a state. Then, after the special figure variation display game has been executed a set number of times, the operation state of the normal variation winning device 7 is changed to the normal operation state, and the game state becomes the normal game state.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, when the result of the special figure fluctuation display game is a big hit, the selection probability of the special result mode is the first special figure fluctuation display game (special figure 1) and the second special figure fluctuation display. It differs from the game (Special Figure 2). In the first special figure variation display game, the probability that the jackpot symbol 1 is selected is 7%, the probability that the jackpot symbol 2 is selected is 45%, the probability that the jackpot symbol 3 is selected is 45%, and the jackpot symbol 4 is selected The probability of being 3%. On the other hand, in the second special symbol variation display game, the probability that the jackpot symbol 1 is selected is 5%, the probability that the jackpot symbol 2 is selected is 35%, the probability that the jackpot symbol 3 is selected is 60%, The probability that the jackpot symbol 4 is selected is 5%. That is, the amount of game value given in the special game state or the amount of additional game value given to the player after the end of the special game state is larger in the second special figure change display game than in the first special figure change display game. (To be advantageous to the player). That is, the game control device 30 extracts a random number (big hit symbol random number) based on the winning of the game ball to the start winning opening (first start winning 13, normal variation winning device 7), and based on the extracted random number value In addition to the special game state, an additional game value determining means is provided for determining whether or not to add an additional game value or determining an additional game value amount to be added.

  FIG. 8 shows the result mode of the special figure variation display game displayed on the special figure display (the first special figure display 8 or the second special figure display 9), and the decorative special figure displayed on the display device 43. The correspondence with the result mode of the variable display game is shown. The correspondence shown in FIG. 8 shows basic correspondence. As will be described later, a result form other than the correspondence shown in FIG. It may be displayed on the device 43.

  The special figure indicator has 8 segments consisting of 8 segments consisting of 7 segments and one dotted segment formed on the side, and each segment is turned on or off. Is used to display one result mode. Further, the display device 43 includes a liquid crystal display, and after the numbers 0 to 9 as a plurality of identification symbols are variably displayed for a predetermined time in each of the left, middle, and right variation display areas, the left, right, and middle numbers are displayed. The variable display is stopped in order, and one result mode consisting of three identification symbols is displayed. It should be noted that the game control device 30 controls the game with the special map display displayed on the special map display, and the effect control device 40 outputs the game with the special game map display displayed on the display unit 43a. Control is based on information.

  When the result of the special figure variation display game is out of place, the result form as shown in FIG. 8A is displayed on the special figure display. Note that the result mode displayed on the special figure display when the result of the special figure variation display game is out of place is one type shown in FIG. Further, the display device 43 displays a result mode such as “7, 6, 8” or “3, 2, 4” as the result mode of the loss. The result mode in the display device 43 is a result mode excluding the result mode in the case of a big hit described below.

  When the result of the special figure variation display game is the jackpot symbol 1, the result form as shown in FIG. 8B is displayed on the special figure display. In addition to the one shown in FIG. 8B, there are a plurality of types of results displayed on the special figure display when the result of the special figure variation display game is the jackpot symbol 1. Further, in the display device 43, as the jackpot symbol 1, for example, the left and right identification symbols such as “7, 6, 7” and “3, 2, 3” are the same, and the central identification symbol is one than the left and right identification symbols. The result mode which is the smaller number is displayed. It should be noted that the result mode of the special symbol display device and the result mode of the display device 43 do not correspond one-to-one, and the display device is displayed when any one of the multiple jackpot symbols 1 is displayed on the special graph display unit. At 43, any one of a plurality of jackpot symbols 1 is displayed.

  When the result of the special figure variation display game is the jackpot symbol 2, the result form as shown in FIG. 8C is displayed on the special figure display. In addition to the one shown in FIG. 8C, there are a plurality of types of results displayed on the special figure display when the result of the special figure variation display game is the jackpot symbol 2. In the display device 43, as the big hit symbol 2, for example, a result mode which is an even-numbered pattern such as “2, 2, 2” or “4, 4, 4” is displayed. It should be noted that the result mode of the special symbol display device and the result mode of the display device 43 do not correspond one-to-one, and the display device is displayed when any one of a plurality of jackpot symbols 2 is displayed on the special graph display unit. At 43, any one of the plurality of jackpot symbols 2 is displayed.

  When the result of the special figure variation display game is the jackpot symbol 3, the result form as shown in FIG. 8D is displayed on the special figure display. In addition to the one shown in FIG. 8D, there are a plurality of types of results displayed on the special figure display when the result of the special figure variation display game is the jackpot symbol 3. In addition, the display device 43 displays a result pattern which is an odd number of eyes such as “3, 3, 3” and “7, 7, 7” as the jackpot symbol 3. It should be noted that the result mode of the special symbol display and the result mode of the display device 43 do not correspond one-to-one, and the display device is displayed when any one of the multiple jackpot symbols 3 is displayed on the special graph display. At 43, any one of the plurality of jackpot symbols 3 is displayed.

  When the result of the special figure variation display game is the jackpot symbol 4, the result form as shown in FIG. 8 (e) is displayed on the special figure display. In addition to the one shown in FIG. 8E, there are a plurality of types of results displayed on the special figure display when the result of the special figure variation display game is the jackpot symbol 4. Further, in the display device 43, any one of all the symbols of the symbols is displayed as the big hit symbol 4 as a result mode. In other words, the jackpot symbol 4, the jackpot symbol 2 and the jackpot symbol 3 cannot be distinguished only by the special result mode displayed on the display device 43. The big hit symbol 4 is notified to the player at a predetermined timing such as when the special game state is started or during execution. This notification method may be any method, for example, displaying a game and notifying the type of the special result mode based on the result, or notifying with a lamp or sound. In addition, the result form in a special figure display does not become the same result form among outlier and jackpot symbol 1 to jackpot symbol 4.

  As described above, the additional game value amount is notified to the player by the special result mode of the special map variation display game displayed on the special map display and the special result mode of the decoration variation display game displayed on the display unit 43a. The Rukoto. Note that the result information transmitted from the game control device 30 to the effect control device 40 is information on which of the five types of out-of-game and jackpot symbols 1 to 4 as information related to the result of the special figure variation display game. It is included. That is, when the game display device 30, the production control device 40, the first special figure display 8, the second special figure display 9, and the display device 43 have a variable display game as a special result, it corresponds to the variable display game. Then, the determination result determined by the additional game value determining means (game control device 30) is notified. This makes it possible to reliably notify the player of the presence / absence of additional game value and the amount of additional game value using the result of the variable display game. In addition, it is possible to give the additional game value in a state where the gameability is enhanced, and to clarify the difference in the additional game value amount.

  From the above, the notification means (the effect control device 40 and the display device 43) notifies the determination result by the type of the special result (big hit symbol) in the variable display game.

  In addition, a normal variation winning device 7 that can increase the winning rate of the game ball to the start winning opening by converting from the closed state to the open state is provided. A specific gaming state (probability changing gaming state, short-time gaming state) that prolongs the conversion period of 1 to the open state in the winning device 7 is generated, and as a difference in the added game value amount to be given, The number of executions of the variable display game (number of time reductions) to be set is changed, and the type of special result (big hit symbol) is associated with the number of executions of the variable display game as the end condition of the specific gaming state. .

  In the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the jackpot symbol 2 and the jackpot symbol 3 are decorated with a predetermined probability based on the type of the special result mode derived in the special map variation display game and the pre-reading result of the second start memory. The special result mode of the figure fluctuation display game is changed to a special result mode other than that corresponding to the special result mode of the special figure fluctuation display game. The jackpot symbol 2 and the jackpot symbol 3 have the same number of rounds but differ in the number of short times as the amount of additional game value. The jackpot symbol 2 has a larger amount of additional game value than the jackpot symbol 3.

  In FIG. 9, a special figure variation display game is executed on the basis of the start memory in which the jackpot symbol random number that becomes the jackpot symbol 3 is stored while the jackpot determination random number value that matches the specific value is stored. The display of the display unit 43a in a state where the “” is derived is shown. That is, a state is shown in which the result mode of the decorative special figure variation display game is displayed on the display unit 43a. When there is no second start memory, as shown in FIG. 9A, the special result mode corresponding to the jackpot symbol determined based on the jackpot symbol random number is displayed without being changed. Therefore, an odd number of eyes that are the jackpot symbol 3 in the special display variation display game are displayed. In addition, when there is a second start memory, but there is no second start memory in which the big hit determination random number value that matches the specific value is stored in the second start memory (in the case where all are out of place), FIG. As shown, the special result mode corresponding to the jackpot symbol determined based on the jackpot symbol random number is displayed without change. Therefore, an odd number of eyes that are the jackpot symbol 3 in the special display variation display game are displayed. In addition, when there is a second start memory, and there is a second start memory in which the big hit determination random number value that matches the specific value is stored in the second start memory (when there is a big hit), FIG. As shown, based on the establishment of a predetermined condition, the display is changed to a special result mode that does not correspond to the jackpot symbol determined based on the jackpot symbol random number. Here, a state is shown in which the jackpot symbol 2 is changed to the jackpot symbol 2 having a smaller amount of additional game value than the jackpot symbol 3.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 10, the change timing of the result mode of the decorative special figure variation display game will be described. At the start of the special figure variation display game (t1), the game control device 30 sends to the effect control device 40 information indicating that the special figure variation display game has been started. Variation pattern information relating to the variation mode is output. In the production control device 40, based on such information, a variation pattern and a result form in the decoration special figure fluctuation display game are determined, and the decoration special figure fluctuation display game is started (t1). Further, when the start winning is generated (t2), the start winning information that is information indicating that the start winning is generated from the game control device 30 to the effect control device 40, and the result of the pre-reading process for the start winning is related. Result information and reach information are output as information. The effect control device 40 stores result information and reach information, which are information related to the result of the prefetching process, for each start memory. Note that the result information and reach information as information relating to the result of the prefetching process may be transmitted from the game control device 30 to the effect control device 40 at the start of the special figure variation display game (t1).

  Further, at the start (t1) of the special figure variation display game based on the start memory, the big hit determination random number value stored in the start memory coincides with the specific value, and the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 Is stored, a predetermined jackpot symbol change period (from t1 to t3) is set. The jackpot symbol change period is a period in which the jackpot symbol can be changed, and is a period from the start of the special symbol variation display game to the recognition of the stop symbol in the decorative special symbol variation display game. Here, in the gaming machine 100 of the present embodiment, the decorative special figure variation display game displays a plurality of identification symbols in a variation display area on the left, middle, and right for a predetermined time, and then left, right, and middle. In this order, the variable display is stopped and one result mode consisting of three identification symbols is displayed. Then, the variation display mode in each variation display area is a variation speed at which the variation display speed gradually increases with the start of the decoration special figure variation display game and the symbol cannot be recognized, and then the variation speed gradually decreases and the pattern is gradually decreased. Is stopped after a recognizable fluctuation speed. Therefore, the period until the stop symbol can be recognized is a period until the player can visually recognize the symbol by decreasing the symbol variation speed in the left variation display area where the variation display is stopped first.

  Then, in the result information about the start winning that occurred during the jackpot symbol change period or the result information about the start memory stored before the jackpot symbol change period, information that the start memory is a jackpot and a predetermined special When the information indicating that the result mode is derived is included, the result mode is changed by the jackpot symbol determination process executed after the end of the jackpot symbol change period. The special result mode thus determined is displayed on the display unit 43a at the end of the special figure change display game (t4).

  In the effect control device 40, a jackpot symbol determination process for determining a special result mode of the decorative special symbol variation display game displayed on the display unit 43a is performed. As shown in FIG. 11, in this jackpot symbol determination process, first, it is determined whether or not the fluctuation is a jackpot (step S30). In determining whether or not the change is a big hit (step S30), based on the result information received from the game control device 30, whether or not the result of the special figure change display game being executed becomes a special result (a big win and Is determined). In the determination of whether or not the variation is a big hit (step S30), if the big hit is not a big hit (step S30; No), the big hit symbol determination process is terminated. In this case, the result mode of deviation is selected as the result mode. In the determination of whether or not the variation is a big hit (step S30), if the change is a big hit (step S30; Yes), it is determined whether or not it is a symbol determination timing (step S31).

  In the determination as to whether it is the symbol determination timing (step S31), it is determined whether it is the timing (t3 in FIG. 10) when the big hit symbol change period ends. If it is not the symbol determination timing (step S31; No) in the determination of whether or not it is the symbol determination timing (step S31), the big hit symbol determination process is terminated. Further, in the determination of whether or not it is the symbol determination timing (step S31), if it is the symbol determination timing (step S31; Yes), a process of determining a jackpot symbol based on the result information (step S32) is performed.

  In the process of determining a jackpot symbol based on the result information (step S32), a process of temporarily determining a special result form to be displayed in the decorative special figure variation display game being executed is performed based on the result information. That is, the jackpot symbol corresponding to the special result mode based on the jackpot symbol random number is provisionally determined. The process of determining the jackpot symbol based on the result information (step S32) is executed at the timing when the jackpot symbol change period ends (t3 in FIG. 10). It may be performed at (t1 in FIG. 10).

  Thereafter, it is determined whether the big hit symbol of the change is the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S33). In determining whether the big hit symbol of the variation is the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S33), the special result mode derived in the special figure variation display game being executed is based on the result information. Whether 2 or big hit symbol 3 is determined. In the determination of whether or not the big hit symbol of the change is the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S33), if it is not the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S33; No), that is, the big hit symbol 1 or the big hit symbol 4 If it is, the jackpot symbol determination process is terminated. In this case, the jackpot symbol 1 or the jackpot symbol 4 which is the jackpot symbol provisionally determined based on the result information is determined. In the determination of whether or not the big hit symbol of the fluctuation is the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S33), if it is the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S33; Yes), the second start memory is stored. It is determined whether or not there is a big hit random number stored (step S34).

  In determining whether or not there is a big hit random number stored in the second start memory (step S34), the big hit that is the big hit determination random number that matches the specific value in the second start memory with reference to the stored result information It is determined whether there is a start-up memory in which random numbers are stored. When it is determined whether or not there is a big hit random number stored in the second start memory (step S34), if there is no big hit random number stored in the second start memory (step S34; No), the big hit symbol determination process is terminated. . Further, in the determination of whether or not the big hit random number is stored in the second start memory (step S34), if the big start random number is stored in the second start memory (step S34; Yes), the big hit symbol of the start memory is It is determined whether or not the jackpot symbol 2 or the jackpot symbol 3 (step S35).

  In the determination of whether or not the big hit symbol of the start memory is the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S35), the result information of the second start memory in which the big hit random number that is the big hit determination random number that matches the specific value is stored. Based on the above, it is determined whether the starting memory is for deriving jackpot symbol 2 or jackpot symbol 3. Thereby, it is determined whether or not the big hit symbol random number for deriving the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 is stored in the start memory. In the determination of whether or not the big hit symbol of the start memory is the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S35), when the big hit symbol of the start memory is not the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S35; No), The jackpot symbol determination process is terminated. That is, in the case of the jackpot symbol 1 or the jackpot symbol 4, the jackpot symbol is not changed, and the jackpot symbol tentatively determined based on the result information is determined as the jackpot symbol. In the determination of whether or not the big hit symbol of the start memory is the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S35), when the big hit symbol of the start memory is the big hit symbol 2 or the big hit symbol 3 (step S35; Yes) Determines whether or not the fluctuation is jackpot symbol 2 (step S36).

  In determining whether or not the variation is the jackpot symbol 2 (step S36), based on the result information, it is determined whether or not the special result mode derived in the running special diagram variation display game is the jackpot symbol 2. . In the determination as to whether or not the variation is a jackpot symbol 2 (step S36), if the variation is a jackpot symbol 2 (step S36; Yes), it is determined whether or not the starting memory is a jackpot symbol 2 (Step S37) is performed. Then, in the determination of whether or not the start memory is jackpot symbol 2 (step S37), based on the result information of the second start memory in which the jackpot random number that is the jackpot determination random number that matches the specific value is stored. It is determined whether the memory is for deriving jackpot symbol 2. Thereby, it is determined whether or not the big hit symbol random number for deriving the big hit symbol 2 is stored in the start memory.

  In the determination of whether or not the starting memory is the jackpot symbol 2 (step S37), if the starting memory is not the jackpot symbol 2 (step S37; No), that is, if the jackpot symbol is 3, the present jackpot symbol at a predetermined probability. Is changed to jackpot symbol 3 (step S38), and the jackpot symbol determination process is terminated. In the process of changing to jackpot symbol 3 with a predetermined probability (step S38), a symbol changing random number is extracted and compared with the determination value. Then, for example, when the extracted symbol changing random number matches the determination value, it is changed to jackpot symbol 3, and when it does not match the determination value, it is determined to be jackpot symbol 2, which is a tentatively determined jackpot symbol based on the result information. Process. In this process, the probability of changing to jackpot symbol 3 is 60%. Thereby, it is possible to give an impression of winning continuously with a big hit with a large amount of additional game value, and it is possible to improve the interest of the game as compared with the case where it is not changed. Further, it is possible to make the player feel the impression that the additional game value larger than the actually determined additional game value amount is obtained, and to increase the player's satisfaction. Further, in the process described later, there is a process of changing the jackpot symbol 3 to the jackpot symbol 2 and the appearance rate of the jackpot symbol 3 having a large amount of additional game value is lowered, but this is also compensated.

  From the above, the notification changing means (the effect control device 40) determines the additional game value determining means when the additional game value amount for the variable display game to be executed is larger than the additional game value amount for the current variable display game. This means that the change is made to the additional game value amount larger than the additional game value amount determined by the (game control device 30).

  In the determination of whether or not the start memory is the jackpot symbol 2 (step S37), if the start memory is the jackpot symbol 2 (step S37; Yes), the jackpot symbol determination process is terminated. In this case, changing the current jackpot symbol to the jackpot symbol 3 gives the impression that the next jackpot will occur while leaving a greater number of time reductions. The jackpot symbol 2, which is a tentatively determined jackpot symbol, is determined.

  Further, in the determination of whether or not the fluctuation is the big hit symbol 2 (step S36), if the fluctuation is not the big hit symbol 2 (step S36; No), that is, if the big hit symbol is 3, the starting memory is a big hit. It is determined whether or not the symbol 2 is present (step S39). In the determination of whether or not the start memory is the jackpot symbol 2 (step S39), when the start memory is the jackpot symbol 2 (step S39; Yes), a process of changing to the jackpot symbol 2 is performed (step S40). . Thereby, it is possible to prevent the player from being dissatisfied with the added additional game value, and to prevent the interest of the game from being lowered. In other words, it is possible to prevent the player from feeling that the amount of additional game value obtained due to the occurrence of the next special game state has been reduced, and to prevent the game's interest from deteriorating. be able to. In addition, compared with the case where the change is not made, the number of times that the player cannot recognize the time when the player cannot recognize the next big hit can be reduced, and the player can feel less lost.

  From the above, the notification changing means (the effect control device 40) determines the additional game value determining means when the additional game value amount for the variable display game scheduled to be executed is smaller than the additional game value amount for the current variable display game. This means that the change is made to the additional game value amount that is smaller than the additional game value amount determined by the (game control device 30).

  Further, in the determination of whether or not the start memory is the big hit symbol 2 (step S39), if the start memory is not the big hit symbol 2 (step S39; No), that is, if the big hit symbol is 3, this time with a predetermined probability The process of changing the jackpot symbol to the jackpot symbol 2 is performed (step S41), and the jackpot symbol determination process is terminated. In the process of changing to the jackpot symbol 2 with a predetermined probability (step S41), a symbol changing random number is extracted and compared with the determination value. Then, for example, when the extracted symbol changing random number matches the determination value, it is changed to the jackpot symbol 2, and when it does not match the determination value, it is determined as the jackpot symbol 3 that is a tentatively determined jackpot symbol based on the result information. Process. In this process, the probability of changing to jackpot symbol 2 is 50%. Thereby, at the next big hit, it is possible to give an impression of winning a big hit with a larger amount of additional game value than this time, and to give a player a sense of profit. In addition, compared with the case where the change is not made, the number of times that the player cannot recognize the time when the player cannot recognize the next big hit can be reduced, and the player can feel less lost. If the current special result mode is jackpot symbol 2, the probability of changing to jackpot symbol 3 is 60%, and if the current special result mode is jackpot symbol 3, the probability of changing to jackpot symbol 2 is 50%. %. Therefore, for the jackpot symbol 2 and the jackpot symbol 3, the appearance ratio of the jackpot symbol 3 with a large amount of additional game value in the decorative special symbol variation display game is higher than the actual derivation ratio based on the jackpot symbol random number, and the interest of the game is enhanced. Can be improved.

  That is, by changing the jackpot symbol in the decorative special figure variation display game to a jackpot symbol with a small amount of additional game value by the above-described process, the player receives additional games than the current jackpot at the next jackpot. You can give a sense of gaining value by winning a high value jackpot. In addition, it is possible to reduce the feeling that the player has lost without being able to digest the time. Further, when the next jackpot is lower in the additional game value than the current jackpot, it is possible not to give a sense that the bonus game amount has been reduced due to the jackpot and lost. In addition, if the next jackpot has a higher added game value than the current jackpot, the bonus game value is changed by changing the bonus game in the decorative special figure variable display game to a bonus game with a higher added game value. It is possible to give a lot of big hits to give an impression of winning continuously, and to improve the fun of the game as compared with the case where it is not changed. Therefore, in addition to the player's expectation for the derivation of the special result, the player can also have a sense of expectation for the contents of the additional game value, and the interest of the game can be improved. Note that the jackpot symbol to be changed is only the jackpot symbol of the decorative special figure fluctuation display game, and the added game value actually given by the change of the jackpot symbol does not change, so the profit balance between the game store and the player is There is no collapse.

  From the above, the effect control device 40 and the display device 43 serve as notification means for notifying the determination result determined by the additional game value determination means in relation to the occurrence of the special game state. Further, when the effect control device 40 and the display device 43 notify the determination result determined by the additional game value determining means, a special result is obtained by the prefetch result of the random number value stored in the start storage means at that time. Notification of changing the determination result to be notified based on the comparison determination result between the additional game value for the variable display game scheduled to be executed and the additional game value for the current variable display game when the variable display game is scheduled to be executed Make a change.

  In the gaming machine 100 of the present embodiment, when the big hit random number is stored in the second start memory and the big hit symbol random number in the second start memory satisfies a predetermined condition, the current big hit symbol is changed. However, when the gaming state is the normal gaming state, the same big hit symbol changing process is performed when the pre-read result of the first starting memory as well as the second starting memory satisfies the predetermined condition. May be.

  Further, the number of special figure variable display games that can be executed in a state in which the normal variation winning device 7 is in the short-time operating state and the amount of additional game value is in the state in which the normal variable winning device 7 is in the short-time operating state. (Time reduction times) is not limited to this. For example, the additional game value can be increased by changing the probability state, increasing the probability that the normal variation display game will win, the occurrence of a short time state of the normal representation that shortens the execution time of the normal variation display game, It is good also as generation | occurrence | production of the extension period of the public telephone open time which lengthens the conversion period to an open state. Further, although the additional game value is given to all the special result modes, a special result mode that does not give the additional game value may be provided.

  In addition, the type of jackpot symbol and the setting of the corresponding additional game value can be arbitrarily changed. For example, the jackpot symbol 5 may be set such that the number of rounds that can be executed in the special gaming state is 2 and the number of time reductions after the completion of the special gaming state is 20 times. However, when such a big hit symbol is set, for example, when the special figure fluctuation display game being executed is a big hit in the big hit symbol 3 (7 rounds, 50 time reductions), the big hit symbol is stored in the starting memory. If there is a start memory that generates a big hit at 5 (2 rounds, 20 times per hour), the next special game state is 2 rounds, so there is virtually no game value given by the big hit, just a shorter time There arises a problem that the number of times is reduced. Therefore, when the start memory for generating the big hit with the big hit symbol 5 (2 rounds, 20 times the number of time reductions) is stored in the start memory, the current big hit symbol 3 to the big hit symbol 2 (7 rounds) In order to solve the above-mentioned problem by performing a process of changing to 20 times a short time), it is possible to surely prevent the player from feeling dissatisfied.

  In addition, for example, the jackpot symbol is two types, a probability variation symbol and a normal symbol, and the corresponding additional game value is a probability variation symbol. In the case of a normal symbol, the game state may be changed to the short-time game state until a predetermined number of special figure change display games are executed after the special game state is ended, and then the normal game state may be set. In this case, the special figure variation display game being executed derives a special result (probability variation symbol) that causes the probability variation state, and the execution right (starting memory) stored at that time is used to display the normal symbol. If a special figure fluctuation display game that is a special result is scheduled to be executed, the result mode of the decoration special figure fluctuation display game may be changed to a special result of a normal symbol in the running special figure fluctuation display game. good. In addition, when such a change is made, it is preferable to set a state (so-called latent state) in which the player is not notified of the probability-changing gaming state in the probability-changing gaming state after the special gaming state. In addition, the special-figure display game being executed derives a special result (normal symbol) that causes a short-time gaming state, and the special result (probable variation symbol, If a special figure variation display game is to be executed, the result mode of the decorative special figure variation display game is changed to the special result of the probability variation pattern. You may make it do.

  In addition, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when the big hit occurs, the big hit symbol is confirmed and displayed, but when the big hit occurs, it is confirmed during the big hit (including the end of the big hit) without confirming the number of time reductions or whether there is a certain change. You may notify. In this case, since the notification time can be delayed and the start-up memory increases during that time, the notification content can be changed more efficiently by the prefetching process. Further, the notification of the determination result determined by the additional game value determining means may be notified by another method in addition to the notification according to the type of the special result mode, for example, by performing a notification-only game. You may do it.

  In addition, the determination of the occurrence of a special gaming state and the determination of the amount of additional game value, etc. are performed by extracting separate random numbers (a jackpot determination random number and a jackpot symbol random number), but using the same random number You may do it. For example, when the same random number is used, a range is set for random values that will be in a special gaming state, and the range is further subdivided to determine the type of special result mode.

  From the above, the variable display device (first special figure display 8, second special figure display 9, display device 43) for displaying the variable display game based on a plurality of identification information, and the start winning opening (first start winning prize) And a starting storage means (game control device 30) for storing the right to execute the variable display game together with a random value based on the winning of the game ball to the mouth 13, the normal variable winning apparatus 7), and stored in the starting storage means The variable display game is executed based on the execution right, and when the random number stored in correspondence with the execution right is a predetermined specific value, the result of the variable display game is set as a special result and for the player A gaming machine 100 configured to generate an advantageous special gaming state, wherein a random number is extracted based on a winning of a game ball at a start winning opening, and added separately from the special gaming state based on the extracted random number value Add game value Whether or not to be added, or the additional game value determining means (game control device 30) for determining the additional game value amount to be given, and the determination result determined by the additional game value determining means in relation to the occurrence of the special gaming state are notified. Notification means (effect control device 40, display device 43), and when the notification means notifies the determination result determined by the additional game value determination means, the random number value stored in the start storage means at that time Based on the result of the pre-reading, if a variable display game that is a special result is scheduled to be executed, it is based on a comparison determination result between the additional game value for the variable display game scheduled to be executed and the additional game value for the current variable display game. In this case, notification change means (production control device 40) for changing the determination result to be notified is provided.

  In addition, a first variation display device (first special figure display 8, display device 43) that displays a first variation display game based on a plurality of identification information, and a second that displays a second variation display game based on a plurality of identification information. A first display memory that stores the right to execute the first variable display game together with a random number based on the winning of the game ball in the first starting winning opening 13 and the variable display device (second special-figure display 9, display device 43). Means (game control device 30) and second start storage means (game) for storing the right to execute the second variation display game together with a random value based on the winning of the game ball in the second start winning opening (ordinary variation winning device 7). A control device 30) and priority control means (game control device 30) for executing the second variation display game with priority over the first variation display game. 2 stored in the starting storage means And prefetching the random number are, and thus to change the determination result notifying.

  Next, a modified example of the gaming machine of the above-described embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. Basically, it has the same configuration as the gaming machine of the above-described embodiment, and hereinafter, the same reference numerals are given to portions having the same configuration, and the description is omitted, and mainly different portions. explain. In the gaming machine of this modification, when there is no second start memory in which the big hit determination random number value that matches the specific value is stored in the second start memory when the big hit occurs (in the case where all are out of place, there is no second start memory) In addition, the jackpot symbol is changed to a jackpot symbol for which the number of time reductions is not defined.

  In the example shown in FIG. 12, when the jackpot symbol is jackpot symbol 2 or jackpot symbol 3, and there is no second start memory in which the random number for jackpot determination that matches the specific value is stored in the second start memory ( In the case of all off), the big hit symbol is changed to a specific big hit symbol. The specific jackpot symbol may be any symbol that does not match any of the jackpot symbols 1 to 4, for example, “A, A, A”. Then, in the probability variation gaming state after the special gaming state, when the starting memory in which the big hit determination random number value that matches the specific value is stored in the second starting memory is generated, the remaining number of short times is notified and displayed. ing. The number of times that are notified at this time is the jackpot symbol (this jackpot symbol) that triggered the occurrence of the probability variation gaming state, and the jackpot symbol (next jackpot symbol based on the pre-reading result of the second start memory that becomes a jackpot ) And will be decided by. That is, the execution right of the special figure variable display game newly stored during the addition of the additional game value is used as a determination target for changing the notification determination result, and the determination result is changed during the addition of the additional game value. I am doing so.

  When both the current jackpot symbol and the next jackpot symbol are jackpot symbols 3, the number of short hours to be notified is a predetermined probability (the number obtained by subtracting the number of executed times from 50 times) which is the actual shortest number of times of remaining hours. For example, the remaining short time count of “the number obtained by subtracting the number of executed times from 20 times” smaller than the actual remaining short time count is notified with a probability of 50%). Thereby, at the next big hit, it is possible to give an impression of winning a big hit with a larger amount of additional game value than this time, and to give a player a sense of profit. In addition, compared with the case where the change is not made, the number of times that the player cannot recognize the time when the player cannot recognize the next big hit can be reduced, and the player can feel less lost.

  Also, if the current jackpot symbol is the jackpot symbol 3 and the next jackpot symbol is the jackpot symbol 2, the number of times that are notified is less than the actual number of times that the remaining number of times is short. Is selected. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the player from being dissatisfied with the added additional game value, and to prevent the interest of the game from being lowered. In other words, it is possible to prevent the player from feeling that the amount of additional game value obtained due to the occurrence of the next special game state has been reduced, and to prevent the game's interest from deteriorating. be able to. In addition, compared with the case where the change is not made, the number of times that the player cannot recognize the time when the player cannot recognize the next big hit can be reduced, and the player can feel less lost.

  Also, if the current jackpot symbol is the jackpot symbol 2 and the next jackpot symbol is the jackpot symbol 3, the number of times that are notified is the actual remaining number of times that is the shortest number of times “the number obtained by subtracting the number of executed times from 20 times” In addition to “,” the remaining short time count of “the number obtained by subtracting the number of executed times from 50 times” larger than the actual remaining short time count is notified with a predetermined probability (for example, a probability of 60%). Thereby, it is possible to give an impression of winning continuously with a big hit with a large amount of additional game value, and it is possible to improve the interest of the game as compared with the case where it is not changed. Further, it is possible to make the player feel the impression that the additional game value larger than the actually determined additional game value amount is obtained, and to increase the player's satisfaction.

  In addition, when the current jackpot symbol and the next jackpot symbol are both jackpot symbols 2, the number of times that are notified is the remaining number of times of the remaining number of times of “the number of times that the number of executed times is subtracted from 20 times” that is the actual remaining number of times Informed. In this case, changing the remaining number of time reductions to “number of execution times subtracted from 50” will give the impression that the next jackpot will occur while leaving more time reductions, so no change is made. .

  In other words, by changing the remaining short time count to the remaining short time corresponding to the jackpot symbol with a small amount of additional game value, the player wins a jackpot with a higher additional game value than the current jackpot at the next big hit. A sense of gain can be given. In addition, it is possible to reduce the feeling that the player has lost without being able to digest the time. Further, when the next jackpot is lower in the additional game value than the current jackpot, it is possible not to give a sense that the bonus game amount has been reduced due to the jackpot and lost. In addition, if the next jackpot has a higher additional game value than the current jackpot, the remaining short-time count is changed to the remaining short-time count corresponding to the jackpot symbol with a high additional game value. It is possible to give a lot of big wins and win the impression, and improve the fun of the game compared to the case where it is not changed. Therefore, in addition to the player's expectation for the derivation of the special result, the player can also have a sense of expectation for the contents of the additional game value, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  In addition, when the second start memory which is a big hit in the probability variation gaming state after the special gaming state does not occur, the actual remaining short time count is notified and displayed simultaneously with the transition to the short time gaming state. In addition, when the second start memory that becomes a big hit in the probability variation gaming state after the special gaming state has not occurred, as the remaining number of time reductions, first, "the number of times that the number of executed times is subtracted from 20 times" is notified, If the jackpot symbol 3 is a jackpot, after the number of time reductions of 20 has elapsed, the “number of executions subtracted from 50 times” may be notified again. Further, the remaining short time number to be notified first is not limited to “the number obtained by subtracting the number of executed times from 20 times” but may be “the number of times obtained by subtracting the number of executed times from 20 times or less”. By doing this, the player's sense of expectation can be maintained until the shortest number of times notified for the first time is reached, and an impression is given as if additional game value has been added when the shortest number of times notified for the first time is reached. Can improve the interest of the game. When there is a second start memory in which a big hit determination random number value that matches the specific value is stored in the second start memory when a big hit occurs, the symbol changing process as in the above-described embodiment may be performed. However, the jackpot symbol based on the jackpot symbol random number may be displayed without performing the symbol changing process.

  From the above, it is assumed that the additional game value is given after the special game state is ended, and the notification changing unit (the effect control device 40) has the right to execute the variable display game newly stored during the addition of the additional game value. As a determination target for changing the determination result, the determination result is changed during the provision of the additional game value.

  The gaming machine 100 as described above includes a variable display device (first special figure display 8, second special figure display 9, display device 43) for displaying a variable display game based on a plurality of identification information, and a start winning opening ( A start storage means (game control device 30) for storing the right to execute the variable display game together with a random value based on the winning of the game ball to the first start winning opening 13 and the normal variation winning apparatus 7). The variable display game is executed based on the execution right stored in the game, and if the random number stored corresponding to the execution right is a predetermined specific value, the result of the variable display game is set as a special result. In addition, the gaming machine 100 is configured to generate a special gaming state that is advantageous to the player, wherein a random number is extracted based on the winning of a game ball at the start winning opening, and the special gaming state is based on the extracted random number value. Added separately from A determination made by the additional game value determining means (game control device 30) for determining whether or not to add a skill value, or an additional game value amount to be given, and the additional game value determining means related to the occurrence of a special game state And a notification means (effect control device 40, display device 43) for notifying the result, and when the notification means notifies the determination result determined by the additional game value determination means, is stored in the start storage means at that time. When a variable display game, which is a special result, is scheduled to be executed based on a pre-read result of the random number value, a comparison is made between the additional game value for the variable display game scheduled for execution and the additional game value for the current variable display game Based on the determination result, there is provided notification changing means (effect control device 40) for changing the determination result to be notified.

  Therefore, a random number is extracted based on the winning of the game ball at the start winning opening, and whether or not the additional game value is given separately from the special gaming state based on the extracted random number value, or the additional game value amount to be given is determined. And a notification means for notifying the determination result determined by the additional game value determination means in relation to the occurrence of the special gaming state, so that the player has a sense of expectation for the derivation of the special result. In addition, a sense of expectation can be given to the contents of the additional game value, and the interest of the game can be improved. In addition, when the notification means notifies the determination result determined by the additional game value determination means, the variable display game that is a special result is scheduled to be executed based on the pre-read result of the random number value stored in the start storage means at that time. In this case, the information change means for changing the determination result to be notified is provided based on the comparison determination result between the additional game value for the variable display game scheduled to be executed and the additional game value for the current variable display game. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the player from feeling dissatisfied with the added additional game value and to prevent the interest of the game from deteriorating. That is, when a special gaming state occurs, the information mode stored in the start-up memory can be used to change the notification mode of the current additional game value. When the additional game value is lower, the notification mode of this additional game value can be changed so as not to give the player a sense of damage and to prevent the game's interest from deteriorating Can do. In addition, depending on the notification mode, it is possible to give the player a sense that the additional game value has further increased in the next special game state, and the interest of the game can be improved.

  Further, the notification changing means (production control device 40), when the additional game value amount for the variable display game to be executed is smaller than the additional game value amount for the current variable display game, the additional game value determining means (game control). The additional game value amount smaller than the additional game value amount determined by the device 30) is changed to be notified.

  Therefore, the notification changing means is more than the additional game value determined by the additional game value determining means when the additional game value for the variable display game scheduled to be executed is smaller than the additional game value for the current variable display game. Since the change is made to a small amount of additional game value and notified, it is possible to prevent the player from feeling dissatisfied with the added value of the added game and to prevent the interest of the game from deteriorating. In other words, it is possible to prevent the player from feeling that the amount of additional game value obtained due to the occurrence of the next special game state has been reduced, and to prevent the game's interest from deteriorating. be able to.

  Further, the notification changing means (the effect control device 40) is configured to add the additional game value determining means (game control) when the additional game value amount for the variable display game to be executed is larger than the additional game value amount for the current variable display game. The additional game value amount larger than the additional game value amount determined by the device 30) is changed to be notified.

  Therefore, the notification changing means is larger than the additional game value determined by the additional game value determining means when the additional game value for the variable display game to be executed is larger than the additional game value for the current variable display game. Since the notification is changed to a large additional game value amount, the player can feel the impression that the additional game value amount is larger than the actually determined additional game value amount, and the player's satisfaction is increased. be able to.

  Further, the notification means (the effect control device 40 and the display device 43) notifies the determination result by the type of special result in the variable display game.

  Therefore, the notifying means notifies the determination result by the type of special result in the variable display game, so that the player can be sure of the presence or absence of the additional game value and the additional game value amount using the result of the variable display game. Can be notified.

  In addition, a normal variation winning device 7 that can increase the winning rate of the game ball to the start winning opening by conversion to the open state is provided, and the normal variation winning device 7 is provided after the special gaming state is ended as an additional game value. The specific game state that lengthens the conversion period of 1 to the open state is generated, and the number of executions of the variable display game set as the end condition of the specific game state is changed as a difference in the added game value amount to be given It is assumed that the type of special result is associated with the number of executions of the variable display game as the end condition of the specific gaming state.

  Therefore, the normal variation winning device 7 that can increase the winning rate of the game ball to the start winning opening by conversion to the open state is provided, and the normal variation winning device 7 is provided after the special gaming state is finished as addition of the additional game value. The specific game state that lengthens the conversion period of 1 to the open state is generated, and the number of executions of the variable display game set as the end condition of the specific game state is changed as a difference in the added game value amount to be given Since the types of special results and the number of executions of the variable display game as the end condition of the specific game state are associated with each other, the additional game value can be given in a state where the gameability is enhanced, and the additional game value It becomes possible to clarify the difference in quantity.

  In addition, a first variation display device (first special figure display 8, display device 43) that displays a first variation display game based on a plurality of identification information, and a second that displays a second variation display game based on a plurality of identification information. A first display memory that stores the right to execute the first variable display game together with a random number based on the winning of the game ball in the first starting winning opening 13 and the variable display device (second special-figure display 9, display device 43). Means (game control device 30) and second start storage means (game) for storing the right to execute the second variation display game together with a random value based on the winning of the game ball in the second start winning opening (ordinary variation winning device 7). A control device 30) and priority control means (game control device 30) for executing the second variation display game with priority over the first variation display game. 2 stored in the starting storage means And prefetching the random number value are, so that to change the determination result notifying.

  Therefore, a first variation display device that displays a first variation display game based on a plurality of identification information, a second variation display device that displays a second variation display game based on a plurality of identification information, and a game to the first start winning opening A first start storage means for storing the right to execute the first variation display game together with a random value based on the winning of the ball; and a right to execute the second variation display game based on the winning of the game ball to the second starting winning opening. Second start storage means for storing together with numerical values; and priority control means for executing the second variation display game with priority over the first variation display game. The notification change means is stored in the second start storage means. Since the determination result for pre-reading and informing the random number value being notified is changed, it is possible to reliably obtain the above effect even in the gaming machine configured to execute the first and second variation display games.In other words, it is possible to prevent the player from feeling dissatisfied with the added additional game value, and to prevent the game interest from deteriorating.

  Further, it is assumed that the additional game value is given after the special game state is finished, and the notification changing means (the effect control device 40) determines the execution right of the variable display game newly stored during the addition of the additional game value. As a determination target for changing, the determination result is changed during the provision of the additional game value.

  Therefore, it is assumed that the additional game value is given after the special game state is finished, and the notification changing means is a determination target for changing the determination result of the right to execute the variable display game newly stored during the addition of the additional game value Since the decision result is changed during the addition of the additional game value, the number of determination targets for changing the decision result increases, the change frequency of the decision result can be increased, and the interest of the game can be improved. it can.
