  Incidentally, the conventional slot machine has a plurality of stop control tables for performing reel stop control, and one stop control is selected from the plurality of stop control tables based on the operation of the stop button of the player. A lottery for selecting a table is performed, and as a result of the lottery, control is performed to stop each reel based on the selected stop control table.

  However, if lottery processing is performed at multiple timings, such as internal lottery based on start lever operation and stop control table lottery based on stop button operation, not only the processing of the entire program becomes complicated, but the slot The designated organization that inspects the performance of the machine has a serious problem that the burden associated with the inspection increases, and there is a possibility that inspection errors such as program bugs may occur.

  Therefore, it has been proposed to limit the various lottery timings in the slot machine within a certain period and try to solve the above problems by performing the lottery within this period.

  However, when the lottery timing is limited within a certain period as described above, it is difficult to perform the lottery process for selecting the stop control table as in the conventional case, and as a result, stop control is performed. Table selection lottery cannot be performed, and it has been forced to perform reel stop control based on a predetermined stop control table.

  Therefore, as a result of the internal lottery, when winning a winning role other than the special winning role that can derive the special result mode, there is no expectation of winning the special winning role, and there is no change and no interesting stop pattern It became a combination, and the interest of the player was reduced.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a slot machine that can change the combination of stop symbols for each variable display game and enhance the interest of the player.

  The invention according to claim 1 is made in order to solve the above-described problem, and the change display means capable of executing a change display game by changing a plurality of reels each having a plurality of pieces of identification information arranged thereon, and Control means for controlling the fluctuation display game by the fluctuation display means, and starts the fluctuation display game based on the operation of the start operation means after setting the number of game media bets, and operates the stop operation means If the stop result mode of the variable display game stopped on the active line according to the number of bets becomes a special result mode determined in advance, a special game that can acquire more game media than can be acquired in the normal game state. In the slot machine capable of generating a gaming state, the control means is configured to execute a preset compound at the start of the variable display game based on the start operation of the start operation means. Internal lottery execution means for internal lottery to determine which of the types of winning combinations is won, and the winning probability of each winning combination to be won by internal lottery by the internal lottery execution means is set to one of a plurality of setting values Probability setting means capable of performing, and stop control means for performing stop control of the variable display game according to the result of the internal lottery by the internal lottery execution means based on the stop operation of the stop operation means, For the plurality of winning combinations, a plurality of special winning combinations that allow the special result mode to be derived, a first winning combination that cannot derive the special result mode, and the first winning combination that is not derived. A second winning combination that allows a chance result mode to be derived, and the second winning combination has a different probability that the chance result mode is derived for each setting value set by the probability setting means. A different winning probability is set for each of the set values, and the stop control means displays the variable display game in the special result mode or the chance result mode according to the operation timing of the stop operation means when the special winning combination is won. The variable display game can be stopped in the chance result mode according to an operation of the stop operation means when the second winning combination is won.

  The invention according to claim 2 is such that the second winning combination has a lower probability of winning the special winning combination such that the chance result mode is derived with higher probability as the set value having a higher winning probability of the special winning combination is higher. The setting value higher than the setting value is characterized in that the winning probability is set higher.

  The invention according to claim 3 includes a continuous effect executing means for controlling the effect display means for performing the effect corresponding to the variable display game and executing a continuous effect that continues over a plurality of variable display games, The continuous production execution means is configured to start the continuous production for a predetermined number of games based on the fact that the special winning combination or the second winning combination is won or the chance result mode is stopped. When the special winning combination is won before the end of the continuous production started in connection with the winning combination, the end of the continuous production can be extended.

  According to the present invention, the chance result mode (chance eye) is derived as the stop result mode of the variable display game when the special winning combination is won and when the second winning combination is won. The expectation for occurrence can be increased. Further, the player can guess to some extent whether the setting is high or low based on the appearance status of the chance result mode.

  FIG. 2 is a main control block diagram of a game control device as main control means installed in the slot machine.

  In the figure, a game control device (main control device) 50 comprises a CPU 51, a read-only ROM 52, a read / write RAM 53, an input / output interface (I / F) 54, and a random number generator 55.

  The CPU 51 is a control unit that performs various types of calculation control using the control unit and the calculation unit. Specifically, the bet number setting for setting the bet number of the game medium to be used for the variable display game based on the input of the bet number from the max bet button 9 or the 1 bet button 10 or the number of medals inserted from the medal slot 15. Means, effective line setting means for setting a plurality of active lines in the variable display game based on the bet number set by the betting number setting means, and a stop result mode in the variable display game is determined based on the start operation by the start lever 6. It functions as an internal lottery executing means for performing an internal lottery and a stop control means for performing stop control of the variable display game based on a stop operation by the stop button 7.

  Specifically, the internal lottery execution means is a symbol in a winning determination table preset based on a winning lottery random number extracted by a random number generator (random number generating IC) 55 and the number of medals bet. The winning mode that can be stopped and displayed in the variable display game is determined by comparing and determining the determination random number value. Then, when the stop result mode determined by the internal lottery is a predetermined winning mode, the internal lottery executing unit sets a winning flag corresponding to the winning mode (winning flag generating unit). For example, when the stop result mode determined by the internal lottery is a special result mode corresponding to a special prize such as a BB prize or an RB prize, a special prize flag is established. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, when the stop result mode determined by the internal lottery does not correspond to the predetermined winning mode, any one of the plurality of miss flags is established (miss flag). Establishment means).

  In addition to storing control programs and control data, the ROM 52 stores a winning determination table for internal lottery. Further, the ROM 52 stores stop control information (stop control table) for deriving a predetermined stop result mode based on the stop operation timing of the reel stop button 7 (stop control information storage means).

  The RAM 53 is a storage area for random numbers for winning lottery extracted by the random number generator 55, a storage area for other various data (for example, the number of medals credits, the number of medals bet, the winning prize type, etc.), and the operation of the CPU 51. Has an area.

  The input / output interface (I / F) 54 is connected to a inserted medal detection sensor 15S, a start lever switch 6S, reel stop switches 7Sa, 7Sb, 7Sc, reel position detection sensors 31a, 31b, through a low-pass filter and a buffer gate (not shown). 31c 1 bet switch 10S for setting the number of bets one by one, Max bet switch 9S for setting the maximum bet number (for example, 3), credit selection switch 18S, payout medal detection sensor 3S, probability setting device 32 Various detection signals output from the reset switch (error release) 33, the front frame opening detection switch 34, and the like are input to the CPU 51.

  Here, the inserted medal detection sensor 15S is a sensor for detecting a medal inserted from the medal slot 15, and the start lever switch 6S is a switch for detecting that the start lever 6 is operated, and a reel stop switch. 7Sa, 7Sb, and 7Sc are provided for each of the reel stop buttons 7a, 7b, and 7c, and are switches for detecting that the reel stop buttons 7a, 7b, and 7c are operated. The reel position detection sensors 31a, 31b, and 31c are provided inside the reels 4a, 4b, and 4c, respectively, and detect position specifying portions provided on the inner peripheral side of the reels 4a, 4b, and 4c. Then, the CPU 51 can accurately determine the reel position based on the time after the reel position detection sensors 31a, 31b, 31c detect the passage of the position specifying unit.

  The 1-bet switch 10S is a switch for detecting that the 1-bet button 10 is pressed. The max-bet switch 9S is a switch for detecting that the 1-bet button 9 is pressed. The credit selection switch 18S. Is a switch for detecting that the credit selection button 18 is pressed, the payout medal detection sensor 3S is a sensor for detecting the number of medals paid out from the medal payout unit 3, and the probability setting device 32 is a slot machine. The reset switch 33 is a device for switching settings (the winning probabilities increase as the setting probability increases as the setting probability increases with the lowest setting probability of setting 1 where the winning probabilities such as special winnings are different from 1 to 6). A switch for resetting the gaming state of the slot machine. The front frame open detection switch 34 is a front panel switch. A switch for detecting that the 2 has been opened.

  The input / output interface (I / F) 54 sends a control signal output from the CPU 51 to an effect control device (sub-control means) 60, a medal payout unit 3, a reel motor via an output port and a driver (not shown). Output to 4Ma, 4Mb, 4Mc, external signal output unit 38, and the like. Also, during a special game state where a special prize is won and a flashy performance is being performed, if the game is not executed for a certain period of time, the effect display of the effect display device 5 and the output from the sound output unit 26 are reduced or stopped. Control. Also, control signals are output to the game progress display unit 11, the bet line display unit 13, the credit number display unit 12, the payout number display unit 8, the game state display unit 14, the decoration display unit 37, and the like.

  FIG. 3 is an arrangement diagram of symbols written on the reels 4 included in the slot machine 100 of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3, in this embodiment, “black 7” located at array numbers 0 and 6 of the left reel 4 a, “white 7” located at 1 and 10 of the left reel 4 a, and array numbers of the left reel 4 a , “Tiara” located at 2, 8,..., “Plum” located at array number 3, 7,..., Left reel 4a, “Angel” located at array number 4 in left reel 4a, ... Six kinds of symbols “watermelon” located at array numbers 5, 14,... And “cherry” located at array numbers 9 and 20 on the left reel 4a are arranged on the reels according to a predetermined rule.

  Here, in the slot machine 100 of the present embodiment, for example, the reel 4a is moved at a position advanced by a maximum of four frames from the timing when the player operates the reel stop buttons 7a, 7b, 7c (within about 190 ms from the detection of the reel stop switch). , 4b, 4c can be controlled (retraction control, sliding control). That is, the stop control means is based on the stop control information (stop control table) stored in the ROM 53 as the stop control information storage means, and the reels 4a, 4b, 4c are at timings different from the stop operation timing of the reel stop button 7. Can be stopped (stop timing changing means).

  The pull-in control means that when any winning flag (for example, a watermelon winning flag) is established, the predetermined number of frames is advanced from the timing when the reel stop button 7 is operated, and the symbol is drawn onto the active line and stopped. Control. On the contrary, the slip control is a control in the case where the symbol located on the effective line is slid out of the effective line when the stop button 7 is operated. Further, in a variable display game in which no winning flag is established, when a symbol combination tempering state corresponding to any winning is formed, the symbol combination mode is set on the third reel (the third reel to be stopped). The control of sliding and stopping the reel so as not to be formed is called kicking control among the slip control.

  That is, if there is a symbol corresponding to the winning flag established in the symbol on the active line and the subsequent four frames at the timing when the player operates the reel stop buttons 7a, 7b, and 7c, the symbol is forced. Will be drawn on the active line and stopped (drawing control). For example, when the BB winning flag is established and the reel stop button 7a is operated at a timing when the range L1 of the array numbers 0 to 4 in FIG. 3 is on the active line, the array number 0 of the left reel 4a is set. “Black 7” is stopped and displayed on the active line. In addition, it is possible to stop and display “black 7” of array number 0 of the middle reel 4b in the range C1 of array numbers 0 to 4, and “black 7” of array number 0 of the right reel 4c can be stopped and displayed. The range is R1.

  If none of the winning flags is established, stop control by slip control and kicking control is performed, so that even if the reel stop button 7 is operated, a symbol combination mode corresponding to winning is formed. It will never be done.

  FIG. 4 is a correspondence diagram of types of winning combinations, symbol combination modes (stop result modes) corresponding to each winning combination, and winning contents, and FIG. 5 is an explanation showing a BB game state and an RB game state as special game states. FIG.

  In the present embodiment, in the normal gaming state, “Big Bonus (BB) Winning”, “Regular Bonus (RB) Winning”, “Replay Winning”, “Watermelon Winning”, “Tiara Winning”, “Cherry Winning”, or “Exit” "" Is won by the internal lottery, and the stop result mode corresponding to the internal winning win can be stopped and displayed on the active line. Then, when the reels 4a, 4b, 4c shown in FIG. 3 are stopped, a winning corresponding to the case where the stop result mode shown in FIG. 4 is formed on the active line is determined, and a predetermined prize value (medal payout) is determined. Etc.).

  The BB winning (special winning) is a winning determined when the bonus stop result mode of “white 7, white 7, white 7” or “black 7, black 7, black 7” is stopped and displayed on the active line. The BB game state is generated as a special game state in which the BB game can be executed. Note that medals are not paid out when the bonus stop result mode is stopped on the active line. Further, the BB winning flags of “white 7, white 7, white 7” and “black 7, black 7, black 7” are distinguished, and when the white 7 BB winning flag is established, “white 7, white 7, white 7”. ”, When the black 7 BB winning flag is established,“ black 7, black 7, black 7 ”is stopped and the bonus winning is confirmed. That is, when the white 7 BB winning flag is established, “black 7, black 7, black 7” cannot be stopped, and when the black 7 BB winning flag is established, “white 7, white 7, “White 7” cannot be stopped and displayed.

  In the BB game state, the winning probability of the tiara winning is set higher than that in the normal gaming state (for example, 1 / 1.6 with 3 bets), and a large number of medals are obtained mainly by this tiara winning. Can do. Then, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the number of payouts due to the winning of the tiara winning or other winnings becomes 267 or more, the BB game state is ended and the game state is shifted to the normal gaming state. Since the end timing of the BB game state is not the acquired number but the payout number, the actual acquired number is less than 267.

  In the present embodiment, when the number of payouts reaches 267 or more is set as an end timing of the BB game state. However, the number of payouts as an end timing of the BB game state is not limited to this, and is defined by, for example, the wind management law. If it is 465 sheets or less, it can be changed appropriately. Further, a JAC game may be provided, and a JAC game may be played when a JAC in prize is established in the BB game state as in a conventional slot machine. In this case, there is no need to set an upper limit on the number of sets of JAC games (upper limit of 3 sets in the conventional No. 4 machine).

  The RB winning (special winning) is a winning determined when “angel, angel, angel” is stopped and displayed on the active line, and generates an RB game state as a special gaming state in which the RB game can be executed. Then, as shown in FIG. 5 (a), when the RB game is digested a predetermined number of times (for example, 12 times) or a tiara winning is obtained for the predetermined number of times (for example, 8 times), the RB game state Ends and the normal gaming state is entered.

  The replay winning is a winning determined when “Plum, Plum, Plum” is stopped and displayed on the active line in the normal gaming state, and the replay game is performed after the reel stops. In this replay game, the number of medals bet this time is carried over to the next game, so the game can be started without newly betting medals.

  The watermelon winning is a winning determined by “watermelon, watermelon, watermelon” being stopped and displayed on the active line, and six medals are paid out. The tiara winning is a winning determined when “Tiara, tiara, tiara” is stopped and displayed on the active line, and 13 medals are paid out. In the BB game state and the RB game state described above, this tiara winning is established as the main winning. Cherry winning is a winning that is determined when “Cherry, ANY, ANY” (any symbol can be used for “ANY”) is displayed on the active line. Medals are paid out.

  FIG. 6 is a winning determination table showing the distribution of the symbol determination random numbers for each winning combination (see FIG. 4) in the normal gaming state and the winning probability of each winning combination (including a loss). The winning / losing of the winning is determined by comparing the symbol determination random number in the winning determination table with the winning lottery random number extracted by the internal lottery execution means.

  As shown in FIG. 6 (a), in a slot machine with setting 6, when a normal game is executed with one bet, if the random number for winning lottery is in the range of 0 to 24, white 7 BB winning (winning probability 1) /2621.4) Black 7 BB win (winning probability 1 / 2621.4) in the range 25-49, RB win (winning probability 1 / 1872.4) in the range 50-84, 85-284 If it is in the range of watermelon (winning probability 1 / 327.6), in the range of 285-2744 tiara winning (winning probability 1 / 26.6), if it is in the range of 2745-3344, winning the cherry (winning probability 1 / 109.2), 3345 In the range of ˜12324, the replay winning (winning probability 1 / 7.2) is established, and a winning flag corresponding to each winning is established (winning flag establishment means). Also, if the winning lottery random number is in the range of 12325 to 30061, it is out of range A (winning probability 1 / 3.6), if it is in the range of 30062 to 47798, it is out of B (winning probability 1 / 3.6), and out of range of 47799 to 65534 C (winning probability 1 / 3.6), and each miss flag is established (miss flag establishment means).

  Similarly to FIG. 6A, in FIG. 6B, when a normal game is executed with two bets in the slot machine with setting 6, FIG. 6C shows three bets in the slot machine with setting 6. It shows the distribution of symbol determination random numbers and the winning probabilities of each winning combination when a normal game is executed with one piece. As shown in FIG. 6, the winning probability of winning combination varies depending on the number of medals bet, and the winning probability for each winning increases as the number of bets increases (except for replay winning).

  FIG. 7 is a winning determination table showing the distribution of symbol determination random numbers for each winning combination in the RB game state and the winning probabilities of each winning combination (including losing). In the present embodiment, the number of bets in the RB game state is one and only a tiara winning is established.

  As shown in FIG. 7, when the RB game is executed with the bet number 1 in the slot machine of setting 6, if the random number for winning lottery is in the range of 0 to 63999, the tiara win (winning probability 1 / 1.02) is obtained. A winning flag is established. On the other hand, if the random number for winning lottery is in the range of 64000 to 64511, it is out of position A (winning probability 1 / 1127.9), out of range 64645 to 65023, out of B (winning probability 1 / 1127.9), and out of range of 65024 to 65534. C (winning probability 1 / 128.2) and each outlier flag is established.

  FIG. 8 is a winning determination table showing the distribution of the symbol determination random numbers for each winning combination in the BB game state and the winning probability of each winning combination (including out of place).

  As shown in FIG. 8A, in a slot machine with setting 6, when a BB game is executed with one bet, if the winning lottery random number is in the range of 0 to 649, a watermelon winning (winning probability 1/100. 8) If it is in the range of 650 to 5149, it will be a tiara winning (winning probability 1 / 14.5), if it is in the range of 5150 to 5174, it will be a cherry winning (winning probability 1 / 2621.4), and a winning flag corresponding to each winning will be established. The Also, if the winning lottery random number is in the range of 5175-25294, it is out of range A (winning probability 1 / 3.2), if it is in the range of 25295-45414, out of B (winning probability 1 / 3.2), out of range in the range of 45415-65534. C (winning probability 1 / 3.2), and each miss flag is established.

  As in FIG. 8 (a), in FIG. 8 (b), when a BB game is executed with 2 bets in the slot machine with setting 6, FIG. 8 (c) shows 3 bets in the slot machine with setting 6. This shows the distribution of symbol determination random numbers and the winning probability of each winning combination when a BB game is executed with one piece. As shown in FIG. 8, in the BB game, similarly to the normal game, the winning probability of the winning combination differs depending on the number of medals, and the winning probability for each winning increases as the number of bets increases.

  In the conventional slot machine, there is no random number distribution related to “out” as shown in FIGS. 6 to 8 in the winning determination table, and when the random number value extracted by the internal lottery execution means is compared with the winning determination table, When the extracted random number value does not correspond to any winning combination, it was determined as a deviation. On the other hand, in this embodiment, in order to change the stop result mode of the variable display game in the case of a loss, a plurality of loss flags are set.

  Next, main control processing in the slot machine 100 will be described. FIG. 9 is a flowchart of the main control process of the slot machine 100.

  First, in step S101, an initialization process is first performed. In this initialization processing, initialization processing of work memory, registers, and various flags in the RAM 53 and initialization processing of other devices are performed.

  Next, bet acceptance processing is performed in step S102. Specifically, the betting operation (bet) of medals is monitored, and an effective line is set according to the number of bets. The medal betting operation in this process means that a replay game right is generated as a result of the previous game, at least one medal is inserted from the medal slot 15, and at least one medal is inserted into the RAM 53. This corresponds to the operation of the 1-bet button 10 or the max-bet button 9 in a state where is stored as credit.

  For example, when a medal is inserted from the medal insertion slot 15, the inserted medal is detected by the medal detection sensor 15 </ b> S and the detection signal is input to the game control device 50. Based on the detection signal, the bet number of medals is stored, and an active line is set corresponding to the bet number. However, a predetermined upper limit value (for example, three) is set for the bet amount. For example, in a state where the “non-credit state” is selected by the credit selection button 18, a medal exceeding the upper limit value of the bet number is set. Is inserted from the medal slot 15, the surplus medals are returned to the tray 23 without being added to the bet amount. On the other hand, when a “credit state” is selected by the credit selection button 18 and a medal exceeding the upper limit of the betting number is inserted from the medal insertion slot 15, the surplus medal is added to the credit amount. At the same time, the addition result is displayed on the credit amount display unit 12 as the credit amount.

  In step S103, an internal lottery process is performed based on the operation of the start lever 6 (detection of a signal from the start lever switch 6S). In this internal lottery process, the stop result mode of the variable display game is determined, and a winning flag or a miss flag is set.

  In step S104, reel fluctuation start processing is performed. In this reel fluctuation start process, it is monitored whether a certain time (for example, 4.1 seconds) has elapsed since the start of rotation of each reel 4a, 4b, 4c in the previous game, and the reel fluctuation is started when the certain time has elapsed. . Note that the “WAIT” display of reference numeral 14 in FIG.

  In step S105, reel fluctuation stop processing is performed. For example, the stop positions of the reels 4a, 4b, and 4c are determined according to the timing at which the player stops the reels 4a, 4b, and 4c with the reel stop buttons 7a, 7b, and 7c, and the established state of the internal winning flag by the internal lottery process. Based on this determination, a control signal is output to the reel driving motors 4Ma, 4Mb, 4Mc.

  In step S106, a winning determination process is performed. In this winning determination process, when one of the symbol combination modes shown in FIG. 4 is stopped and displayed on the active line as a result of the stop display based on the stop operation of the reel stop buttons 7a, 7b and 7c by the player. It is determined that a prize has been established.

  In step S107, a medal payout process is performed in accordance with a winning that a predetermined symbol combination form is formed on the active line. For example, if the credit selection button 18 is in the credit state, the medal is added to the credit, and if it is in the non-credit state, a control signal is sent to the medal payout unit 3 to discharge the medal. Even in the credit state, when the limit number of credits (for example, 50) is exceeded, the remaining medals are discharged to the medal tray 23.

  One game in the normal game state, the BB game state, and the RB game state is completed by the series of game control processes in steps S101 to S107 described above.

  The game control process shown in FIG. 9 is executed in a conventional general slot machine. In the slot machine of this embodiment, the internal lottery process in step S103 and the reel fluctuation stop process in step S105 are performed. This is different from the game control processing of the conventional slot machine. The internal lottery process and the reel fluctuation stop process will be specifically described below.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the internal lottery process (step S103 in FIG. 9).

  In the internal lottery process, first, in step S301, a random number for winning lottery is extracted from the random number generator 55 based on a start operation by the start lever 6, and the extracted random number is stored in a random number storage area (RAM 53).

  Next, in step S302, the number of active lines in the variable display game is calculated and set based on the input bet number. Next, in step S303, a winning determination table corresponding to the gaming state and the number of bets is set. For example, in the normal gaming state, the winning determination table of any of FIGS. 6A to 6C, in the RB game state, the winning determination table shown in FIG. 7, in the BB game state, FIG. 8A. The winning determination table of any one of (c) is set (in the case of setting 6).

  In step S304, the winning lottery random number stored in the RAM 53 is compared with the symbol determination random number value corresponding to each winning in the set winning determination table.

  In step S305, it is determined whether the winning lottery random number stored in the RAM 53 matches one of the symbol determination random numbers corresponding to each winning in the winning determination table. If they match, the winning is determined as an internal winning. . If the internal winning flag for the BB winning or the RB winning is already established, the BB winning or the RB winning is not duplicated.

  If it is determined in step S305 that any winning is won, a winning flag (internal winning flag) corresponding to the corresponding winning is set (step S306), and the internal lottery process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S305 that no winning is won, it is determined whether or not it matches the symbol determination random number value corresponding to the deviation A in the winning determination table (step S307). If it is determined in step S307 that the deviation is A, a deviation A flag is set (step S308), and the internal lottery process is terminated.

  If it is determined in step S307 that the deviation is not A, it is determined whether or not it matches the symbol determination random number value corresponding to the deviation B in the winning determination table (step S309). If it is determined in step S309 that the deviation is B, a deviation B flag is set (step S310), and the internal lottery process is terminated. If it is determined in step S309 that the deviation is not B, a deviation C flag is set (step S311), and the internal lottery process is terminated.

  FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the reel fluctuation stop process (step S105 in FIG. 9). The reel fluctuation stop process will be specifically described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.

  In the reel variation stop process, first, in step S501, it is determined whether or not a variation display game is in progress. If it is determined that the game is not in a variable display game, the process ends. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S501 that the game is a variable display game, the reel stop switch is validated in step S502.

  Next, in step S503, it is determined whether a reel stop operation has been performed, and this step is repeated until there is a reel stop operation. If it is determined in step S503 that a reel stop operation has been performed, the reel stop switches other than the reel in which the stop operation has been performed are invalidated in step S504.

  Next, in step S505, it is determined whether the winning flag is set. If the winning flag is set, stop processing based on the winning flag is performed (step S506).

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S505 that the winning flag is not set, stop processing based on the miss flag is performed (step S507). Specifically, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 12, when it is determined in step S601 that the loss A flag is set, stop processing based on the loss A sliding frame number table is performed (step S602). If it is determined in step S603 that the loss B flag is set, stop processing based on the loss B sliding frame number table is performed (step S604). If it is determined in step S603 that the loss B flag is not set, stop processing based on the loss C sliding frame number table is performed (step S605).

  Next, in step S508, it is determined whether all reels have been stopped. If it is determined that all reels have been stopped, the reel fluctuation stop processing is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined that all the reels are not stopped, the processing from step S501 is repeated.

  In the slot machine of this embodiment, a plurality of miss flags can be set by the internal lottery process as described above. Further, stop control information (stop control table, sliding frame number table) is stored in the ROM 53 corresponding to each of the plurality of missed A, B, and C flags. In this stop control table, for example, as shown in FIG. 13, different stop control information is stored for each flag, so that the player has a certain timing (for example, black 7 of array number 0 (see FIG. 4)). Even if the stop operation is performed at the timing of the stop display in the middle stage), the stop result mode varies depending on the established failure flag.

  FIG. 13 shows an example of a sliding frame number table (stop control table) corresponding to the deviation A, B, and C flags. FIG. 14 shows the position of “watermelon” of array number 17 in the middle of the first reel (left reel) 4a. It is explanatory drawing which shows stop control at the time of performing stop operation at the performed timing.

  As shown in FIG. 13, when the stop button 7a is operated by the player, the number of sliding symbols is determined and the stop control is performed on the first reel 4a based on the symbols positioned on the middle stage effective line.

  For example, when the loss A flag is established, the loss A sliding frame number table in FIG. At this time, when the stop operation is performed at the timing when the “watermelon” of the array element number 17 of the first reel 4a is located in the middle stage, the number of sliding frames is “0”, and therefore, as shown in FIG. The first reel 4a is stopped at the timing when the stop operation is performed (immediate stop control means).

  Further, when the deviation B flag is established, the deviation B sliding frame number table in FIG. 13B is referred to. At this time, when the stop operation is performed at the timing when the “watermelon” of the array element number 17 of the first reel 4a is positioned in the middle stage, the number of sliding frames is “+1”, and therefore, as shown in FIG. The first reel 4a is stopped at the timing of sliding one frame to the next (slip prevention control means).

  When the deviation C flag is established, the deviation C sliding frame number table in FIG. 13C is referred to. At this time, when the stop operation is performed at the timing when the “watermelon” of the arrangement number 17 of the first reel 4a is positioned in the middle stage, the number of sliding frames is “+4”, and therefore, as shown in FIG. The first reel 4a is stopped at the timing when it is slid 4 frames (slip prevention control means).

  For the second reel (middle reel) and the third reel (right reel), as shown in FIG. 13, refer to another stop table (stop table number: 0 to 100) according to the symbol stopped on the first reel. Thus, stop control is performed.

  As described above, in the slot machine 100 according to the present embodiment, the stop control information (stop control table) is referred to based on the miss flag established by the internal lottery, and the reels 4a, 4b, 4c are determined according to each miss flag. Since the stop timing is changed, the stop result mode of the variable display game can be varied according to the established failure flag. Therefore, even if the stop result of the variable display game is out of order, the stop result mode for each variable display game can be changed, so that the stop result is obtained when the player performs a stop operation at a certain timing. It is possible to prevent the aspect from being biased and to increase the interest of the player.

(Second Embodiment)
In the slot machine according to the second embodiment, the sliding frame number table is set so that the symbols are stopped and displayed on the active line according to a certain rule in accordance with the plurality of missed flags established by the internal lottery. Therefore, stop control is performed.

  Note that the process for establishing the detachment flag in the internal lottery process and the stop process based on the detachment flag in the reel fluctuation stop process are the same as those in the first embodiment, and a description thereof will be omitted.

  FIG. 15 is an explanatory diagram illustrating stop control based on the sliding frame number table of the second embodiment. That is, as shown in FIG. 15 (a), when the deviation A flag is established, the replay winning tempering state is on the effective line by the first reel (left reel) 4a and the second reel (middle reel) 4b. (In FIG. 15, it is an effective line rising to the right). However, since the replay winning flag is not established, the kicking control is executed when the stop operation of the third reel (right reel) 4c is performed, and the replay winning is not established. The active line on which the replay winning tempering state is formed is not limited. When the number of bets is 3, the replay winning tempering state may be formed on any of the five active lines.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 15B, when the deviation B flag is established, the tiered state of the tiara winning is formed on the effective line by the first reel 4a and the second reel 4b (in FIG. 15). Effective line descending to the right). However, since the tiara winning flag is not established, the kicking control is executed when the stop operation of the third reel 4c is performed, and the tiara winning is not established. Note that the active line in which the tiara winning tempering state is formed is not limited. When the number of bets is 3, the tiara winning tempering state may be formed in any of the five active lines.

  In the above embodiment, the left reel 4a and the middle reel 4b form a replay winning or tiara winning tempering state. However, when a stop operation by scissor pressing is performed, the left reel 4a and the right reel A replay winning or tiara winning tempering state may be formed by the reel 4c.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 15C, when the outlier C flag is established, the replay winning or tiara winning tempering state that appears when the outlier A flag and the outcoming B flag are established is formed. Therefore, a stop result mode in which the law is broken appears. Further, the stop result mode in which the above law is broken is likely to appear when a special winning flag is established, and is a result mode (so-called chance eyes) that may appear even when a loss flag is established. . A result mode that appears only when a special winning flag is established is called a reach eye and is distinguished from a chance eye.

  In other words, in the second embodiment, when the loss C flag is established, a part of the special stop control information referred to when the special prize flag such as the BB prize flag or the RB prize flag is established (the chance item) The same specific stop control information as the stop control information that causes the

  Thus, in the present embodiment, in the variable display game, the identification information arranged on the two reels 4a and 4b other than the changing third reel 4c is stopped at the same identification information on the active line. The state can be formed, and is configured so as to be able to establish an outlier A flag that forms a tempered state with a replay symbol, an outlier B flag that forms a tempered state with a tiara symbol, and an outlier C flag that does not form a tempered state. Yes.

  FIG. 16 is a winning determination table of the second embodiment showing the distribution of the symbol determination random numbers for each winning combination in the normal gaming state, and the winning probability of each winning combination (including a loss). For example, as shown in FIG. 16 (a), when a normal game is started with one bet, the probability that the losing A and B flags are established is 1 / 2.4, whereas the losing C flag The probability that is satisfied is 1 / 11310.7. In addition, as shown in FIG. 16B, when a normal game is started with two bets, the probability that the losing A and B flags are established is 1 / 2.6, whereas the losing C flag The probability that is established is 1 / 436.9. In addition, as shown in FIG. 16 (c), when a normal game is started with three bets, the probability that the losing A and B flags are established is 1 / 2.8, whereas the losing C flag. The probability that is established is 1 / 218.4.

  As described above, in the second embodiment, the outlier C flag is set to be established with a probability lower than the probability that the outlier A and B flags are established, and therefore, chances are not frequently derived. The expectation for the establishment of the special winning flag when the chance is derived can be increased.

  In addition, it is impossible to determine whether the special winning flag is established or the off flag is established based on the stoppage result of the variable display game, so-called chance eyes (reach eyes that appear only when the special winning flag is established) Can be derived to the stop result mode, so that a change is made to the stop result mode of the variable display game to prevent the occurrence of bias, and a sense of expectation as to whether or not a special winning flag has been established. Can increase the interest of the player.

  In addition, depending on the setting (1 to 6) of the slot machine, by providing a difference in the probability that the outlier C flag is established, it is possible to give the player material for setting inspection. For example, as shown in FIG. 17, if the setting is made such that the probability of establishment of the outlier C flag is significantly increased as the setting is increased, the player is set based on the establishment status of the outlier C flag (the appearance status of the chance eye). It can be estimated to some extent whether the value is high or low.

  Furthermore, the effect display device 5 is configured to perform an effect corresponding to the variable display game. For example, when the outlier C flag is established, the continuous display is frequently performed, thereby allowing the appearance of the chance eye. The start of continuous production can further enhance the expectation for a special prize.

(Third embodiment)
In the third embodiment, a continuous effect is executed in the effect display device 5 when the loss C flag is established. For example, the continuous production of the present embodiment can be continued for 1 to 3 games, and the establishment of the special prize flag is confirmed when 3 games are continued.

  FIG. 18 is a timing chart showing the established state of the C flag that is different from the special winning flag and the continuation state of the continuous effect executed in response thereto.

  As shown in FIG. 18A, when the RB winning flag or the BB winning flag is established, the continuous effect is continued for three games. On the other hand, when the lost C flag is established, since the special winning flag is not established, the continuous effect is ended in one or two games (FIG. 18B).

  In addition, during the continuous production started with the establishment of the losing C flag, for example, when the special prize flag is established in the second game of the continuous production, the continuous production originally ended in two games is continued. Up to three games will be executed (FIG. 18C).

  Thus, in the slot machine according to the third embodiment, the effect display can be continuously executed over a plurality of variable display games, and when the special prize flag is established, a predetermined number of effect displays (for example, (3 games), the display is ended before the predetermined number of variable display games have passed. In addition, the effect display device 5 is configured to execute a confirmed effect display for notifying that the special winning flag has been established.

  Also, when the effect display is started based on the establishment of the off flag, and the special winning flag is established before the effect display is ended, the effect display is performed until the final effect display is executed without ending the effect display. To continue. Thereby, it can be prevented that the effect display by the effect display device 5 is ended and the interest of the player is lowered even though the special winning flag is established. Therefore, it is possible not only to prevent the occurrence of bias by changing the stop result mode of the variable display game, but also to enhance the player's interest in the effect display by the effect display device.

  As mentioned above, although the invention made | formed by this inventor was concretely demonstrated based on embodiment, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment. For example, the first to third embodiments can be applied in combination.

  Further, the slipping frame number tables (FIGS. 13 and 16) of the deviation A, B, and C flags in the above embodiment may be shuffled at a predetermined timing such as when the power is turned on.

  In recent years, frauds using sensory devices have occurred frequently. This fraud can be determined by grasping the cycle of random numbers by some means, synchronizing the cycle of the sensory sensation with this cycle, and then a signal (signal) ), The start lever is operated to aim at a predetermined combination. Regarding the loss flag set in the above embodiment, since the random numbers are distributed in the winning determination table, it has a cycle that can be synchronized with the sensory device. If this period has been acquired by the player using the sensation device, it becomes possible to aim at a predetermined combination from here. Therefore, if the slipping frame number table of the A, B, and C flags is shuffled at the time of power-on or after the end of one game, a player who uses an illegal instrument such as a sensory device will receive a winning role. It is possible to prevent the hit period from being acquired.

  It should be understood that the embodiments disclosed herein are illustrative and non-restrictive in every respect. The scope of the present invention is defined by the terms of the claims, rather than the description above, and is intended to include any modifications within the scope and meaning equivalent to the terms of the claims.

  The slot machine as described above has variable display means capable of executing a variable display game by changing a plurality of reels each having a plurality of pieces of identification information arranged thereon, and the betting number of game media used for the variable display game. Based on the bet number setting means to be set, the start operation means capable of executing the start operation of the variable display game based on the bet number being set by the bet number setting means, and the start operation means based on the start operation of the start operation means A stop operation unit capable of executing a stop operation of the started variation display game; and a control unit capable of executing the variation display game by controlling the variation display unit. The control unit includes the bet number setting unit. An effective line setting means for setting a plurality of active lines in the variable display game based on the bet number set by And an internal lottery execution means for performing an internal lottery for determining a stop result mode in the variable display game, and a stop control means for performing stop control of the variable display game based on the stop operation by the stop operation means. A game that can be acquired in the normal gaming state when a predetermined special result mode is derived on the active line set by the effective line setting means based on the result of the internal lottery by the internal lottery executing means. In a slot machine capable of generating a special gaming state capable of acquiring more game media than the media, the internal lottery execution means, when the stop result mode determined by the internal lottery is a predetermined winning mode, The winning flag establishment means for establishing a winning flag corresponding to the winning mode, and the stop result mode determined by the internal lottery are the predetermined winnings. And a stop flag establishing means for establishing a miss flag, and the stop control means stores stop control information of the variable display game based on the stop operation timing of the stop operation means. Stop control information storage means, stop timing change means capable of stopping the variable display game at a timing different from the stop operation timing of the stop operation means based on the stop control information stored in the stop control information storage means, And the detachment flag establishment means is configured to be able to establish a plurality of detachment flags, and establishes any one of the plurality of detachment flags based on the result of the internal lottery, and the stop control information The storage means includes a stop system corresponding to each of the plurality of detachment flags established by the detachment flag establishment means. Control information is stored, and the stop timing changing means refers to the stop control information stored in the stop control information storage means based on the deviation flag established by the deviation flag establishment means, and according to each deviation flag The reel stop timing in the variable display game is changed.

  That is, as a result of the internal lottery, even if no winning is won, a plurality of miss flags are established based on the result of the internal lottery, and stop control information corresponding to each of the miss flags ( A stop control table) is set and the stop control information is referred to based on the established failure flag to change the reel stop timing in the variable display game (reel stop control so that a predetermined symbol is stopped and displayed) To do).

  Further, the stop control information storage means immediately stops the identification information located on the effective line set by the effective line setting means at the timing when the stop operation means is stopped, simultaneously with the stop operation timing. Information and slip prevention information to be stopped after a predetermined time delay from the stop operation timing are stored as stop control information, and the stop timing changing means refers to the immediate stop information and immediately stops the variable display game. Stop control means, and slip prevention control means for stopping the variable display game with reference to the slip prevention information.

  The winning flag establishment means establishes a special winning flag when the stop result mode determined by the internal lottery is a special result mode, and the stop control information storage means establishes the special winning flag. Special stop control information that is referred to in the case, and specific stop control information that is referred to when a predetermined disengagement flag is established by the disengagement flag establishment means, and includes the same stop control information as part of the special stop information, Is remembered.

  Further, the stop control means can form a tempering state in which the identification information arranged on a plurality of reels other than the reel that is still changing in the variable display game is stopped at the same identification information on the active line. The failure flag establishment means forms the tempered state with the first detachment flag for forming the tempered state with the first identification information (for example, replay symbol) and the second identification information (for example, tiara symbol). A second detachment flag to be generated and a third detachment flag that does not form the tempering state can be established, and the third detachment flag is greater than a probability that the first and second detachment flags are established. The stop timing changing means is configured to refer to the specific control information when the third deviation flag is established. To have.

  Therefore, the failure flag establishment means is configured to be able to establish a plurality of failure flags, and one of the plurality of failure flags is established based on the result of the internal lottery, and the stop control information storage means Stop control information corresponding to each of the plurality of deviation flags established by the deviation flag establishment means is stored, and the stop timing changing means is a stop control information storage means based on the deviation flag established by the deviation flag establishment means. Since the stop timing of the reel in the variable display game is changed with reference to the stop control information stored in the above, the stop result mode of the variable display game can be made different according to the established flag. Therefore, even if the stop result of the variable display game is out of order, the stop result mode for each variable display game can be changed, so that the stop result is obtained when the player performs a stop operation at a certain timing. It is possible to prevent the aspect from being biased and to increase the interest of the player.

  In addition, the stop control information storage means, the immediate stop information for stopping the identification information located on the active line set by the effective line setting means at the timing when the stop operation means is stopped, simultaneously with the stop operation timing, Slip prevention information to be stopped after being delayed from the stop operation timing by a predetermined time is stored as stop control information, and the stop timing changing means refers to the immediate stop information and immediate stop control means for stopping the variable display game, With the anti-slip control means for stopping the variable display game with reference to the anti-slip information, the variable display game is stopped simultaneously with the stop operation timing, or the variable display is delayed after a predetermined time from the stop operation timing. The game can be stopped and the stop result mode of the variable display game can be freely controlled Kill. Therefore, even if the stop result of the variable display game is out of order, the stop result mode for each variable display game can be changed, so that the stop result is obtained when the player performs a stop operation at a certain timing. It is possible to prevent the aspect from being biased and to increase the interest of the player.

  The winning flag establishment means establishes a special winning flag when the stop result mode determined by the internal lottery is a special result mode, and the stop control information storage means is referred to when the special winning flag is established. Special stop control information and specific stop control information that is referred to when a predetermined failure flag established by the departure flag establishment means is established and stores the same stop control information as part of the special stop information, Therefore, it is possible to derive a chance result in which it is impossible to determine whether the special winning flag is established or the off flag is established from the suspension result of the variable display game. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of bias by changing the stop result mode of the variable display game, and to increase the expectation as to whether or not the special winning flag has been established, thereby enhancing the interest of the player. it can.

  Further, the stop control means can form a temporary state in which identification information arranged on a plurality of reels other than the reel that is still changing in the variable display game is stopped at the same identification information on the active line. The flag establishment means includes a first detachment flag that forms the tempered state with the first identification information, a second detachment flag that forms the tempered state with the second identification information, and a third detachment that does not form the tempered state. The third failure flag is set to be established with a probability lower than the probability that the first and second failure flags are established, and the stop timing changing means Since the specific control information is referred to when the deviation flag is established, the stop result mode normalized by the first deviation flag and the second deviation flag are used. When each rule of the stop result mode that is regularized in this way breaks down, a chance eye is derived as the stop result mode. In addition, since the reach that is the stop result mode referring to the chance and the special stop information is not frequently derived, it is possible to increase the expectation for the occurrence of the special gaming state when each stop result mode is derived. It is possible to prevent the occurrence of bias by changing the stop result mode of the variable display game.
