Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine, a program, and a recording medium that are installed and used in a game hall such as a pachinko parlor.

  In a pachinko machine called a so-called digipachi, in each of a plurality of display areas, a plurality of types of identification information (special symbols) are variably displayed so as to be switched, and then the identification information is stopped and displayed. When the combination of identification information that is stopped and displayed in each becomes a special combination set in advance, a variable display game that generates a special gaming state that is a big hit and can acquire more game balls than the normal state Is provided.

Many pachinko gaming machines equipped with a large liquid crystal display device have been developed as the display device, and the display contents of the variable display game are characterized to enhance the interest of the player.
In addition, in order to make a variety of games with pachinko gaming machines, a gaming machine or the like that can perform two variable display games in a digital pachi has been developed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  In such a gaming machine, it is intended to provide a player with a new gameability by combining two variable display games performed in parallel. Note that the two variable display games performed in parallel here do not mean that the conventional special symbol variable display game and the normal symbol variable display game are performed in parallel, but the special symbol variable display. Two games may be performed in parallel, and a normal symbol variation display game may be performed.

JP 2005-263115 A

  By the way, in the case where two variable display games are performed in parallel, the player pays attention to whether or not both of the two variable display games are hit, but various conditions such as a lottery probability are simply the same. If only two variable display games are played in parallel, if you get used to it, there is a possibility that the player will get bored because the game play is not so much different from the case of watching each variable display game individually. is there.

In addition, a process called “probability variation” is generally performed on the above-described digital patch. When winning a big hit, one of a normal state (low probability state) and a probability variation state (high probability state) is selected by lottery. Then, when the normal state is selected, the jackpot probability after the special gaming state that occurs due to the jackpot becomes a preset low probability.
When the probability variation state is selected, the jackpot probability after the special gaming state is set in advance and becomes a high probability that is about 10 times higher than the low probability.

  Further, in the above-described digital patch, a so-called electric tulip (hereinafter referred to as an electric chew) is provided at a start winning opening that gives an opportunity to start the variable display game when a game ball wins. There is also a lottery on whether or not to open and close the tulips.

  And in the above-mentioned probability variation state, the lottery probability for opening and closing the electric Chu is increased, the opening time when winning in the lottery is increased, the number of times of opening and closing is increased to multiple times, the time required for the lottery The number of lotteries per hour can be increased by shortening. As a result, in the probability variation state with respect to the normal state, the number of game balls to be won at the start winning opening increases, and thereby the number of payout of game balls (game balls) also increases. Such a state where the electric chew provided at the start winning opening is frequently opened or opened for a long time is hereinafter referred to as electric chew support.

  In the electric Chu support, as described above, the probability of winning the lottery is increased, the opening time is extended when it is won, the number of times of opening is increased, the number of lotteries per unit time is increased (lottery) (It is not necessary to perform all of these processes), and some of these processes may not be performed. Basically, the operation is not performed when electronic support is not performed. It is sufficient that the opening time per unit time of the electric Chu is larger. However, during the electric chew support, it is preferable that the number of game balls to be paid out as prize balls is approximately the same as the number of game balls to be launched.

  From the above, as the number of winning game balls at the start winning opening increases, the payout of prize balls increases as described above, and the next jackpot is reduced without reducing the number of held balls (game balls) during the game. Can be waited for, and the probability of winning a jackpot is high, and the variable display game (jackpot lottery) is played almost without interruption. A jackpot can be generated. In addition, since a large amount of game balls can be acquired at the next jackpot without reducing the number of game balls, the number of possessed balls can be reliably increased.

Therefore, the player expects the probability variation state to occur and expects the probability variation state to continue after the probability variation state. In other words, in the game of Digipachi, even if a large amount of game balls can be acquired simply by generating a jackpot, it cannot be maintained, but a large amount of game balls are acquired by generating a probability variation state, In addition, the number of possession balls (game balls) can be further increased by the next jackpot in a state in which it is maintained.
For example, the normal state (low probability state) is a state that the player wants to take off, and while in the normal state, even if a big hit occurs, there is a possibility that the ball will be used up until the next big hit It is difficult to increase the number of balls.

  In the case of the above-mentioned digipachi, since it is determined by lottery whether or not a probability variation state is generated every time a jackpot occurs, it returns to a normal state when a jackpot occurs during the probability variation state. there is a possibility. In some cases, the probability variation state may continue a plurality of times, or the probability variation state may end in the next big hit. And the player will be discouraged when the probability change state finally occurs, but it will be disappointed at the next jackpot, this will be the timing to stop the game, the gaming machine in the game store There is a possibility of lowering the operating rate.

In addition, since whether or not to generate the probability variation state is determined by lottery, the player cannot intervene in the game at all so as to continue the probability variation state. In addition, when two variable display games are played in parallel as described above, the next big hit occurs in a relatively short period of time after a big hit has occurred, compared to the case where one variable display game is played. Opportunities increase, and there is a possibility that the player is often discouraged in a normal state at the jackpot immediately after the probability fluctuation state as described above.
This increases the chances of the player being discouraged, despite trying to enhance the player's interest in the game by performing two variable display games in parallel.

  In addition, in the invention of Patent Document 1, when one of the variable display games is started while the other variable display game is started while the other variable display game is being played, the other variable display game may not be a big hit. It is said. That is, although the winning can be invalidated, in the probability variation state, the jackpot that generates the normal state is not invalidated.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and by performing two variable display games in parallel, the player can invalidate the jackpot with the normal state that occurs in the probability variation state, and the probability variation state It is an object of the present invention to provide a gaming machine, a program, and a recording medium that can give an opportunity to continue the game, thereby enhancing the interest of the player and increasing the operating rate of the gaming machine in the gaming store.

The gaming machine according to claim 1, a game board on which a game ball is launched,
A first start prize opening and a second start prize opening provided on the game board;
First lottery means for executing a first lottery for determining a jackpot and a loss based on the winning of a game ball at the first start winning opening;
A second lottery means for executing a second lottery for determining a big hit and a loss based on the winning of a game ball at the second start winning opening;
First informing means for informing the result of the first lottery when the first informing time which starts timing based on execution of the first lottery by the first lottery means ends;
Second informing means for informing the result of the second lottery when the second informing time to be started based on execution of the second lottery by the second lottery means ends;
More games to the player than in a normal state when the first notifying means notifies the result of the first lottery that is a big hit and when the second notifying means notifies the result of the second lottery that becomes a big hit A hit state control means for generating a jackpot state for a predetermined period of time so that a ball can be acquired;
In each case where the result of the first lottery is a jackpot and the case where the result of the second lottery is a jackpot, the normal state is set after the end of the jackpot state generated based on the jackpot, There is a higher probability that the results of the first lottery and the second lottery will be a big hit compared to the normal state, and there are game balls that can be won in the first start winning opening within a unit time than the normal state. A probability state control means for determining whether to increase the number of high probability states in the probability lottery, and generating a normal state or a high probability state at the end of the jackpot state based on the result of the probability lottery,
Notification time determining means for determining the first notification time and the second notification time;
One lottery result is a big hit at the end of one notification time measured by one notification means of the first notification time measured by the first notification means and the second notification time measured by the second notification means When the other lottery result is notified, if the other notification means has timed the other notification time, the other jackpot lottery result is forcibly rewritten and the result is notified to the other notification means. In a gaming machine provided with a notification control means
The second lottery means has a small hit in addition to a big win and a loss in the result of the second lottery, and the probability that the result of the second lottery is a big hit is equal to or more than the probability that the result of the second lottery is lost,
The hit state control means, when the result of the second lottery is a small hit, to generate a small hit state for a predetermined period of time that the player can acquire less game balls than the big hit state,
When the second lottery result is a small win, the probability state control means does not perform the lottery for the normal state or the high probability state, and the normal state before the small hit state occurs. Maintain the state or high probability state without changing after the small hit state,
The notification time determining means makes the second notification time in the high probability state shorter than the first notification time,
The notification control means forcibly outputs the jackpot result of the first lottery when the first notification time is counted when the second lottery result is notified by the second notification means. Rewrite as a gap, let the first notification means notify the result,
In addition, the result of the first lottery by the first lottery means during the high probability state is a jackpot, and the state after the jackpot state generated based on the jackpot determined by the probability state control means is a normal state In this case, it is possible to notify that a normal state occurs after the jackpot state at the start or during the timing of the first notification time by the first notification means for notifying the result that is the jackpot of the first lottery. It usually has jackpot notification means.

In the first aspect of the present invention, after a jackpot is generated in the first lottery or the second lottery and the jackpot state is reached, the normal state or the high probability state is set. And if it will be in a high probability state, the probability which becomes a big hit by the 1st lottery and the 2nd lottery will become high, and there will be many game balls which can win a prize to the 1st start prize opening. That is, in the high probability state, a so-called probability variation state or a state similar thereto is obtained.
Here, since it is determined when a jackpot is generated, for example, whether the state is a high probability state or a normal state, the state is shifted to a normal state every time a jackpot occurs when the state is a high probability state. there is a possibility.

Further, in the second lottery, a small hit is generated with a probability equal to or greater than the loss, and when the second notification time for notifying the result of the small hit ends and the small hit is notified, When the first notification time for notifying the lottery result is timed, the result of the first lottery is forcibly notified as a deviation. Therefore, for example, when it is determined that the result of the first lottery is a win and the normal state is reached after the big win state, the notification time for notifying the result of the first lottery is timed. In the meantime, if a small win occurs in the second lottery, the big win resulting in the occurrence of the normal state is lost, the big win state does not occur, and the normal state does not occur thereafter.
Even if a small hit state occurs due to the occurrence of a small hit, if the small hit state is a high probability state, the high probability state is maintained even after the small hit state ends.

Therefore, when a big win is generated in the first lottery in the high probability state and the normal state is obtained after the big win state based on the jackpot, the high probability state is ended by generating the small win in the second lottery. If it is determined that a high probability state will be reached after the big jackpot at the next big jackpot, the high probability state can be continued.
Further, in the present invention, in the case of being in a high probability state, when the jackpot is informed after the timing of the first notification time is finished, the jackpot state occurs, and when the normal state is reached after the jackpot state, It is notified that the normal state is reached after the end of the big hit state at the start or during the timing of the first notification time.
In addition, since the second notification time is shorter than the first notification time in the high-probability state, it is notified that the above-mentioned normal state is reached, and then the game ball is won at the second start winning opening, and the second If the second notification time based on the winning of the game ball to the second start winning opening ends before the first notification time ends, and the result of the second lottery is a small win, the normal state is reached. The jackpot can be prevented.

As a result, when the player is informed that a big win for the normal state will occur in a high probability state, the player is made to win a game ball at the second start winning opening and generates a small win in the second lottery. If it can be made, it becomes possible to cancel the jackpot that makes the high-probability state a normal state, and then wait for the jackpot to become the high-probability state.
That is, the player is given an opportunity for technical intervention to prevent the jackpot that the high probability state ends and to maintain the high probability state.

Even if the game ball is not awarded at the 2nd start winning opening at a good timing or the jackpot cannot be generated, the player will be able to They are likely to be satisfied with their technical intervention in preventing the high probability state from ending.
As a result, the player is given an opportunity to maintain a high probability state, and thus has a great interest in the game, and there is a possibility that the opportunity to play with the gaming machine will increase. It is possible to improve the operating rate of the gaming machine.

Note that the first notification time ends, the jackpot is notified, and when the jackpot state occurs and ends, the normal state is notified when the first notification time is started or the first notification is started. It is preferable that the time is being measured and the remaining time of the first notification time is sufficiently longer than the second notification time.
In addition, the determination whether the normal state is reached after the big hit state but the high probability state is made is from the time when it is decided to become the big hit to the time when the timing of the first notification time is started. Is preferred.

Moreover, it is preferable that the length of the 2nd alerting | reporting time in a high-probability state is half or less of the 2nd alerting | reporting time, for example.
In addition, the first start winning opening and the second starting winning opening are on the game board so that the player can aim at the first starting winning opening and the second starting winning opening separately to launch a game ball. It is preferable that it is in the position away. At this time, for example, it is easy to win the first start winning hole by a normal way of hitting the game ball weakly, and it is easy to win the second start winning hole by so-called right hitting by firing the game ball strongly. It may be possible to do this, or vice versa.

The gaming machine according to claim 2 is the invention according to claim 1,
The normal hit notification means is a state after the big hit state generated based on the jackpot determined by the probability state control means while the result of the first lottery by the first lottery means is a big hit during the high probability state Is in a normal state, a normal state occurs after the jackpot state at the start or during the timing of the first notification time by the first notification means for notifying the result of the first lottery It is provided with the notification determination means which determines whether to alert | report this.

  In the invention according to claim 2, the result of the first lottery by the first lottery means is a jackpot during the high probability state, and a jackpot state generated based on the jackpot determined by the probability state control means Even when the later state is the normal state, there are cases where the normal state is notified and cases where the normal state is not notified.

  Here, if it is informed that the normal state is reached, the player has the opportunity to maintain the high probability state by causing the player to win a game ball at the second start winning opening and generating a small hit as described above. If it is not notified, the player will not know exactly whether a normal state or a high probability state will occur after a jackpot occurs, and there is a risk of invalidating the jackpot that becomes a high probability state Therefore, the possibility that the player tries to generate a small hit is low, and the possibility that the high probability state cannot be maintained increases.

Accordingly, the player is in a state more advantageous to the player than the state in which the state in which the normal state is notified is not notified, and is in a state disadvantageous to the player than the state in which the normal state is not notified.
Therefore, it is possible to change the game state depending on whether or not to notify that the normal state is reached. In addition, when this notification is performed, for example, by displaying on a liquid crystal display or the like, lighting of a lamp, or sound from a speaker, the game is played by controlling the display of a liquid crystal display, controlling the lighting of a lamp, or controlling voice. It is possible to change to a state advantageous to the player or to a state disadvantageous to the player.

The gaming machine according to claim 3 is the invention according to claim 1 or 2,
The second start winning opening is provided with a distribution device that distributes game balls that can be won in the second starting winning opening into a state in which a winning ball is won in the second start winning opening and a state in which no winning is made. Features.

In the gaming machine according to claim 3, the winning of the game ball to the second start winning opening is restricted by the sorting device, and the probability that the game ball wins the second starting winning opening decreases. Become.
As a result, in the high probability state as described above, when it is informed that the result of the first lottery will be a big win and the normal state will be obtained after the big win state, the game ball is won at the second start winning opening. Even if it tries to make it, the probability that a game ball will win will fall, and the technical intervention of the player who tries to continue a high probability state will become difficult.

  Thereby, once a high-probability state occurs, it is possible to prevent a state in which the high-probability state continues permanently due to the technical intervention of the player. In particular, when the occurrence of small hits by the second lottery means has a very high probability (for example, 80% or more), the high probability of continuing the ratio can be made reasonable. In other words, by maintaining a high probability state, a player plays a game for a long time without consuming much game balls, and most of the game balls obtained in the big hit state generated during that time are not consumed. It is possible to prevent the player from gaining profits and to adjust the balance between the profits of the game store and the player.

Also, in the second lottery, at least as much as a small win will occur, and a big win will also occur, so the player will mainly win the first lottery by winning the game ball at the first start winning opening. There is a possibility that the second lottery may be performed by winning a game ball in the second start winning opening instead of performing it. However, by reducing the probability that a game ball will win the second starting prize opening, the player won the game ball in the first starting prize opening rather than making the game ball win in the second starting prize opening. However, as the number of winning balls increases, the number of lottery wins increases, and it is possible to guide the player to enter the state of playing a game like the first lottery.
Thereby, a game with a game that is interesting to continue the high probability state as described above can be surely made possible.
In addition, if a game is aimed at the second start winning opening, a small hit state frequently occurs, which may cause a delay in the game, reduce the number of big wins per unit time, and may be disadvantageous to the player. Also from this point, the player can be guided so as not to aim at the second start winning opening in a normal state.

The gaming machine according to claim 4 is the invention according to any one of claims 1 to 3,
There are provided at least two special variable winning devices that open and close between a closed state in which game balls cannot win and an open state in which game balls can easily win,
These special variable winning devices are closed in normal and high probability states,
On the other hand, the special variation winning device opens and closes when the big hit state is reached based on the big win, and allows a lot of game balls to be awarded to the special variable winning device. Enables players to acquire many game balls,
The other special variable prize winning device is capable of winning a game ball in the special variable prize winning device by opening and closing when the result of the second lottery is a small hit based on the small hit state. Enables the player to acquire less game balls than the game balls that can be acquired in the big hit state in the small hit state,
The game board is provided with an inhibiting member that inhibits the winning of the game ball to the special variation winning device when the other special variation winning device is opened.

  In the invention according to claim 4, in order to generate a small hit in the second lottery and to continue the high probability state as described above, it is necessary to increase the probability of the small hit in the second lottery. In the present invention, the probability of occurrence of small hits is set to be equal to or greater than the probability of occurrence of dislocation. In this case, it is possible to frequently generate the small hit state by frequently generating the small hits, and depending on the player, by hitting the game ball aiming at the second starting winning opening, There is a possibility of playing a game in which a small hit state is frequently generated based on this, and a game ball obtained by the small hit state is accumulated.

Therefore, the special variable winning device to be opened is different between the small lottery for the second lottery and the big jackpot for the first lottery, and the special variable winning device for the small lottery of the second lottery is opened. In this case, an obstructing member that inhibits the winning of the game ball to the special variable winning device is provided so that even if a small hit state occurs and the special variable winning device is opened, the game ball can only win a little The game balls obtained by small hits can be reduced.
Thereby, a player can be guided not to perform a game aiming at a small hit.
In addition, it is possible to prevent a situation where the number of game balls acquired in a normal state increases due to the small hit, and it is possible to prevent the number of game balls obtained by the player from increasing too much.
In addition, when providing two special variable prize-winning apparatuses, it may be divided for the first lottery and the second lottery, or may be divided for the big win and the small win.

In the invention described in claim 5, the same effect as that of the invention described in claim 1 can be obtained in a simulation of a video game or the like of a gaming machine. Here, the computer includes a game machine such as a so-called video game machine, a portable game machine, and an arcade game machine that includes a memory such as a CPU, a RAM, and a ROM and executes a game based on a program.
Furthermore, a function for simulating the configuration according to claims 2 to 4 may be added to the program according to claim 5.

  The invention described in claim 6 is a computer-readable recording medium in which the program according to claim 5 is recorded.

  In the invention described in claim 6, the same effect as in the invention described in claim 5 can be obtained.

  According to the present invention, in a gaming machine having a high probability state such as a probability variation state, when the high probability state ends due to the occurrence of a jackpot state, this is prevented by technical intervention and the high probability state is continued. Such a game is possible, thereby enhancing the interest of the player and improving the operating rate of the gaming machine in the game store.

  Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, a gaming machine (for example, a ball) that is installed in a place such as a game machine-installed store and that allows a player to play a game based on supply of gaming media (for example, a gaming ball or medal). The configuration and operation of a pachinko gaming machine as a gaming machine will be described.

The pachinko gaming machine of this example has a basic configuration as a so-called “digipachi” type of pachinko gaming machine, and includes the gaming board 1 shown in FIG. A game area 2a is formed in the portion.
A variable display device (decorative symbol display device) 3 is provided in the game area 2a on the surface of the game board 1 slightly above the center. The variable display device 3 is composed of, for example, a liquid crystal display device, and displays lottery results for winning and losing lottery performed by a main controller 231 (to be described later) functioning as a lottery means. At this time, a variable display game is displayed, and the above-described lottery result is displayed according to the win or miss of the variable display game.

  A variation display game is basically a well-known game, for example, a plurality of decorative symbols (identification information) such as numbers are displayed in a variable manner so as to be switched in a plurality of display areas, and a variation in a variation pattern determined in advance by lottery. When the display time has elapsed, the variable display is terminated, and one decorative symbol is stopped and displayed in each display area, and the combination of the stopped decorative symbols is a special combination. A special game state described later is generated as a big hit. The variable display device 3 is not limited to the liquid crystal display device, and various known display devices can be used. In many cases, the decorative design includes various characters (characters such as unique characters, existing animations, and talents) and is also referred to as a character diagram.

  Further, in the variable display device 3, not only the decorative symbols are sequentially switched and displayed in the above-mentioned display of the variable display game, but also various stunning displays are performed, and characters and other characters related to the decorative symbols are displayed. Animation display is also performed. In this example, two variable display games using special symbols (special symbols) as so-called identification information are displayed in parallel as will be described later. Two variable display games are played in parallel. Here, together with a later-described special display variable display game, one variable display game is hereinafter referred to as a first special figure game, and the other variable display game is referred to as a second special figure game.

  The display method in the variable display device 3 is not particularly limited. For example, in the first special game, the decorative symbols are variably displayed in the plurality of display areas, and the second special game is In particular, it is possible to provide a big hit or missed effect after performing variable display at the corners of the variable display device 3 without providing a plurality of display areas. In addition, both of them may perform variable display of decorative symbols in a plurality of display areas as described above. In addition, as will be described later, in this gaming machine, a game is played in a probability variation state (high probability state (including electric chew support)) and a normal state (low probability state). The figure game may be displayed as a variable display game on the variable display device 3, and the second special figure game may be displayed as the variable display game in the probability fluctuation state. In this case, a special game that is not displayed as a variable display game may be displayed with a simple variable display at the corner of the screen as described above. Further, two variable display devices 3 may be provided, and the first special figure game may be performed on one variable display device 3 and the second special figure game may be performed on the other variable display device 3.

  The variable display device 3 is surrounded by a peripheral wall 31 that prevents the inflow of game balls. In addition, a stage 32 is formed at the bottom portion of the peripheral wall 31 so that a game ball can jump from the lower side and flow in, and a part of the flowed game ball is guided to a first start winning opening 51 described later. ing. In addition, the peripheral wall 31 includes, for example, an inflow port for game balls provided on the outside of the side portion, an outflow port for flowing out the game balls toward the stage 32, and a flow path connected to the outflow port from the inflow port. A part of a game ball flowing down around the peripheral wall 31 is guided to the stage 32.

  Below the right side of the variable display device 3, first and second special figure displays 4a and 4b are provided. The first and second special symbol displays 4a and 4b are each composed of, for example, a 7-segment LED display device, and variably display special symbols (identification information) in the same manner as the above-mentioned decorative symbols. However, the first and second special-figure indicators 4a and 4b do not perform a stunning display like the variable display device 3, but simply switch and display special symbols (special figures) in sequence, respectively. After the display time elapses, the special symbol is stopped and displayed, and whether the special symbol displayed in a stopped state is a predetermined winning special symbol or a special symbol of the deviation is notified.

Further, the first special symbol game with the decorative symbol performed on the variable display device 3 corresponds to the first special graphic game with the special symbol performed on the first special symbol display 4a, and the decorative symbol performed on the variable display device 3 The second special figure game corresponds to a second special figure game with a special symbol performed on the second special figure display 4b.
That is, the first special figure game is displayed as the first variable display game of the decorative symbol of the variable display device 3 and is displayed as the first variable display game of the special symbol of the first special figure indicator 4a. The 1-variable display game is a game that has the same result of notifying each of the results of one first lottery performed by the main control device 231 described later.

The second special figure game is displayed as a second variation display game of the decorative symbol of the variable display device 3 and is displayed as a second variation display game of the special symbol of the second special symbol display 4b. The two-variable display game is a game that has the same result of notifying each of the results of one second lottery performed by the main control device 231 described later.
That is, the variable display game that informs the result of the winning and losing lotteries performed by the main controller 231 as the first special figure game (first lottery) and the second special figure game (second lottery) entertains the player. The game is displayed separately for a decorative design game for the purpose, and a special game for notifying the result.

In addition, the decorative symbol game on the variable display device 3 and the special symbol game on the special symbol display devices 4a and 4b are performed almost simultaneously, and the lottery results displayed are the same as described above. It becomes. In the variable display device 3 and the special figure displays 4a and 4b, the variable display time (the time between the start timing and the stop timing of the variable display is the notification time of the present invention) is substantially the same.
In this example, in the first special figure game (first lottery) and the second special figure game (second lottery), in addition to the big win and the disappointment, a lottery is drawn. When a small hit is made, a small hit state is generated for a predetermined period in which fewer game balls can be acquired by the player than in the big win state.

A first start winning opening 51 is provided directly below the variable display device 3. The first start winning opening 51 determines the big win and miss of the first special figure game based on the winning of the game ball to the main control device 231 that functions as the first lottery means for performing the lottery for determining the big win and miss. An opportunity to start the first lottery decision (an opportunity to start the first variable display game) is given.
Further, the first start winning opening 51 is provided with a first start winning ball detection sensor 52 for detecting a winning of a game ball to the first start winning opening 51.

The first start winning opening 51 is provided with an ordinary variable winning device (variable winning device) 53. The normal variation winning device 53 has a so-called electric tool as an electric accessory, and the first start winning opening 51 is between the two left and right movable pieces 54, 54 constituting the electric accessory. In a normal state, the movable pieces 54 and 54 are closed with an interval that allows only one game ball to flow down, and the result of a normal symbol variation display game (ordinary variation display game) described later is a hit. In such a case, the two movable pieces 54 are opened for a preset time.
In the open state in which the movable pieces 54, 54 are opened, the game ball is guided to the movable piece 54, the game ball can be won in the first start winning opening 51, and the game ball is easy to win. Yes. On the other hand, in the closed state in which the movable pieces 54, 54 are closed, the game ball is not guided to the first start winning opening 51 by being guided by the movable pieces 54, 54, and the game ball is in the first start prize from the open state. It is difficult to win a prize in the mouth 51.

  That is, the normal variation winning device 53 is in a closed state in which it is difficult for a game ball to win in the first start winning port 51, and the game ball is guided to the pair of movable pieces 54, 54, so that the first start in the closed state. The game ball fluctuates between an open state and an open state so that the game ball can easily win a prize.

A second start winning opening 55 is provided on the right side of the variable display device 3.
The second start winning opening 55 is based on the fact that the game ball wins the main control device 231 that functions as a second lottery means for performing a lottery for determining the big win and miss of the second special figure game as will be described later. An opportunity to start the second lottery (an opportunity to start the second variable display game) for determining the big win and the loss of the second special figure game is given.
The second start winning opening 55 is provided with a second start winning ball detection sensor 56 that detects a winning of a game ball to the second start winning opening 55.

  The second start winning opening 55 is provided with a distribution device 57 that distributes the game balls to the second start winning opening 55 and the non-winning state. In this example, the sorting device 57 is constituted by a so-called croon 58, which is a dish-like member having a curved surface (for example, a substantially spherical shape) on the upper surface side, and a game ball inside the concave portion on the upper surface. Rolls in the circumferential direction.

In addition, a plurality of holes 58a and 58b opened on the upper surface and the lower surface are provided in the croon 58, and a game ball rolling in the circumferential direction on the upper surface of the croon 58 falls into one of these holes 58a and 58b. The game ball in a stopped state does not stay on the croon 58.
Then, the game ball that has fallen into one hole 58a directly enters the second start winning opening 55, and the game ball that has fallen into the other two holes 58b, 58b enters the game area 2a below the croon 58. It is released, and the game area 2a is further flowed down without winning the second start winning opening 55.

In addition, the game nail 16 disposed on the croon 58 functions as a guide member that guides a part of the game ball flowing down on the croon 58 onto the croon 58, and the guide member composed of these game nails 16 serves as the clune 58 A game ball that has not been guided upward is prevented from flowing into the croon 58. Thereby, the game nail 16 is in a state of limiting the number of game balls flowing into the croon.
In addition, a cruising 58 is arranged immediately above the second starting winning opening 55 to prevent a game ball that has not been guided to the cruising 58 from flowing into the second starting winning opening 55. Therefore, only the game ball that has passed through one hole 58a of the croon 58 can win the second start winning opening 55.

In addition, the design is such that the game balls flow into the croon 58 at the same rate (winning rate) as that of a general start winning opening by the game nails. Further, in the cron 58, for example, 1/3 of the game ball that has flowed into the cron 58 falls into the hole 38a and wins the second start winning opening 55. Note that the winning rate of the start winning opening is determined by the design of each model, and there is not necessarily a general winning rate, but the starting winning opening in other pachinko gaming machines called digipachi (not equipped with electric Chu) Alternatively, the winning rate is set to be within the range of the winning rate fluctuation (when the electric Chu is closed).
Therefore, the winning rate of the game ball at the second start winning opening 55 is set to be about 1/3 of the general starting winning opening.

  From the above, the first start winning opening 51 and the second starting winning opening 55 are provided on the game board 1 on which the game balls are launched, and the first start winning opening 51 receives the first game balls. The start winning ball detection sensor 52 detects the start of the first special figure game (first lottery), the game ball wins the second start winning port 55, and the second start winning ball detection sensor. By being detected at 56, an opportunity to start the second special figure game (second lottery) is given.

  The variable display device 3 displays a first special figure hold number display 7a and a second special figure hold number display 7b. Then, when the first start winning ball detection sensor 52 detects a game ball won in the first start winning port 51 in the first special figure game as the variable display game, it is within a range of an upper limit (for example, 4). 1 is added to the first special figure holding number (first winning memory number), and the first special figure game (the first special figure game of both the decorative symbol and the special symbol) is started based on the starting prize. In addition, 1 is subtracted from the first special figure hold number. This first special figure hold number, that is, the number of triggers (starting right) for starting the first special figure game is displayed as, for example, the number of marks in the first special figure hold number display 7a.

  Similarly, a range of a numerical value (for example, 4) that becomes an upper limit when the second starting winning ball detection sensor 56 detects a game ball that has won a second starting winning hole 55 in the second special game as the variable display game. 1 is added to the second special figure holding number (second winning memory number), and the second special figure game (the first special figure game of both the decorative symbol and the special symbol) is started based on this starting prize. In this case, 1 is subtracted from the second special figure holding number. This second special figure hold number, that is, the number of triggers (starting right) for starting the second special figure game is displayed as the number of marks on the second special figure hold number display 7b. The first special figure hold number display and the second special figure hold number display are not displayed on the variable display device 3 but are displayed on the first special figure hold number display and the second special figure hold. A number indicator may be provided.

  A special variable winning device 8 is provided below the variable display device 3 and further below the first start winning port 51. A special variable winning device 8 called an attacker is provided with a winning ball 83 that is larger than the other winning ports and a movable door 81 that opens and closes the large winning port 83, so that a game ball is won. Is a closed state in which the movable door 81 is closed so as not to allow game balls to flow in, and the result of the variable display game is a big win (when a special game state is started as a big win state based on the big win). Based on a predetermined condition, the game ball is opened so that the game ball can easily flow in and opened and closed repeatedly as described later. In other words, the special variable winning device 8 can be changed between an open state in which a game ball can be won and a closed state in which a game ball cannot win.

A special winning ball detection sensor 82 for detecting a game ball won in the special winning port 83 is provided in the special winning port 83 of the special variable winning device 8.
In addition, the special variable winning device 8 whose driving source is controlled by the main control device 231 wins a predetermined time and a predetermined number of game balls when released in response to the winning of the variable display game. When one of the two conditions is fulfilled, the block is closed, and the block is opened again, and is controlled to repeat blocking a predetermined number of times (a predetermined number of rounds) based on the establishment of the above condition. . The period from when the special variable winning device 8 is opened until it is closed is referred to as a round. That is, the main control device 231 sets the round to a predetermined value by setting the special variable winning device 8 to an open state in which a plurality of game balls can be continuously won, and then closing the special variable winning device 8 as one round. The special variable winning device 8 is controlled so as to be repeated a number of times.
The end condition for the jackpot state is that a predetermined number of rounds are performed.

Further, below the second start winning opening 55, a special winning prize varying device 11 for small hits is provided. And the special variation winning device 11 for small hits is a so-called electric chew in this example, and has a pair of movable pieces 11a, 11a like the above-mentioned ordinary variation winning device 53, and these movable pieces 11a, 11a, A small winning prize winning opening 11b is provided between 11a.
Further, the small hitting big winning opening 11b is provided with a small hitting big winning ball detection sensor 11c for detecting a winning of a game ball to the small winning big winning opening 11b.

  In normal times, the movable pieces 11a, 11a are closed with an interval allowing only one game ball to flow down, and the result of either the first special figure game or the second special figure game is a small hit. In this case, the two movable pieces 11a and 11a are opened for a preset time, so that a game ball can be won at the small winning big winning opening 11b, and the movable balls 11a and 11a can be used for playing small big hits. It is guided to the winning opening 11b. Further, in this example, the game nails 16,... Are arranged immediately above the position between the movable pieces 11a, 11a in the closed state. It is impossible to win a game ball in the winning big winning opening 11b. Also, the end condition for the small hit state is that the opening / closing of the small winning big winning opening 11b is ended and the closed state is closed.

Note that the special variable winning device 11 for small hits is not limited to the above-mentioned electric chew, and may be an attacker type like the special variable winning device 8, but in this case, a large winning for small hits is possible. It is preferable that the width of the portion that becomes the mouth is narrow, for example, it is preferable that the width is slightly longer than the diameter of the game ball.
As will be described later, in this example, since the small wins occur very frequently in the second special figure game, each time the special variable winning device for small hits 11 wins several game balls. Then, there is a possibility that the number of balls (game balls to be paid out) in the probability variation state (including the small hit state) will increase.

  Therefore, in this example, the special winning game device 11 for small hits is an electric Chu system in which game balls are hard to win than the attacker system, and is small in the upper portion in the vicinity of the special winning game device 11 for small hits. A plurality of game nails 16 serving as obstructing members for inhibiting the winning of the game ball in the small winning big prize opening 11b of the special winning prize changing device 11 for winning are arranged, and the winning of the game ball in the big winning prize winning hole 11b is arranged. The probability of winning (winning rate) is reduced.

  The game nail 16 as an obstructing member does not completely prevent the winning of the game ball into the small winning big winning opening 11b, and although the winning rate is extremely low, the small winning big winning A game ball can be awarded to the mouth 11b. Then, when a small win occurs in the first special figure game or the second special figure game, for example, the special variable winning device 11 for small hits is opened only for a preset period of less than one second to several seconds. Thus, the game ball can be won, but the game ball actually wins, for example, about one game ball after being released several tens of times.

  On the right side of the variable display device 3 and above the normal variable winning device 53, a normal passage port (starting passage port) 9 is provided. Further, a passing ball detection sensor 91 that detects a game ball that has passed through the normal map passing port 9 is provided corresponding to the normal passing port 9, and the passing ball detection sensor 91 detects a game ball, that is, Based on the passing (winning) of the game ball through the ordinary figure passage opening 9, a later-described ordinary symbol variation display game (hereinafter referred to as ordinary figure game) is changed to a later-described ordinary symbol (ordinary figure) display device (LED display device) 6. The opportunity to display with is added.

  The universal map display device 6 for displaying the universal map display game is composed of, for example, a 7-segment LED display device, and after the display of numerical values as normal symbols is sequentially switched and displayed in a variable manner. If the display of one numerical value or the like is stopped and the display of the stopped numerical value or the like is a display of a predetermined winning numerical value such as 7 or the like, it is a win. In addition, the circle mark that is turned on and off by the LED and the cross mark are alternately turned on and off to display fluctuation, the round mark is turned on in the case of hitting, and the cross mark is displayed in the case of a loss. It may be turned on. In addition, the result of winning and losing is determined by lottery by the main controller 231.

  Under the above-mentioned general map display device 6, a general map hold number display lamp 10 is provided. When the game ball passes through the normal passage passage 9 during the normal symbol variation display game (when the passing ball detection sensor 91 outputs detection of the game ball), the upper limit is a numerical value (for example, 4). One is added to the starting memory number, and when the usual figure change display game is started, a process of subtracting 1 from the usual figure starting memory number is performed. The normal figure start memory number is displayed on the normal figure hold number display lamp 10.

  Then, as described above, when the normal variation display game is won, the normal variation winning device 53 is opened, and the winning rate of the game balls to the normal variation winning device 53 is increased. Start opportunities are increasing.

  In addition, a plurality of general winning ports 13, 13 are provided on the left side of the game area. Further, a general winning ball detection sensor 131 for detecting a game ball won in the general winning ports 13 and 13 is provided corresponding to the general winning ports 13 and 13, respectively.

In addition, at the lowermost end portion of the game area 2a below the special variable winning device 8, there is an out port 15 for discharging the game balls that have not won any of the winning areas to the back of the game board 1 outside the game area 2a. Is provided.
In addition, on the front surface of the game board 1, there are provided flow regulation regulating members such as a game nail 16 (only part of which is shown) and a windmill (not shown) which regulate the flow direction of the game ball and change the flow direction. .

Next, the control system of the pachinko gaming machine of this example will be described with reference to the block diagram shown in FIG.
The control system of the pachinko gaming machine is roughly composed of a main control unit 23, a sub control unit 24, and a power supply device 29 that supplies power to the main control unit 23 and the sub control unit 24.
The main control unit 23 includes a main control device 231 composed of, for example, a one-chip microcomputer for a gaming machine. The main control device 231 includes a CPU 23a that executes a program, a program and data used in the program. A stored ROM 23b, a RAM 23c that stores data generated based on a program, various data read from the ROM 23b, and the like, a frequency generation circuit unit 23d, and the like are provided.

  Signals from various sensors provided in the pachinko gaming machine can be input to the main controller 231 (CPU 23A). The first start winning ball detection sensor 52, the second starting winning ball detection sensor 56, A winning ball detecting sensor 82, a small winning big winning ball detecting sensor 11c, a passing ball detecting sensor 91, and a general winning ball detecting sensor 131 are connected, and game balls are paid out in response to winning of game balls. A game ball payout detection sensor 232 that detects a prize ball paid out from the device 251, an error detection sensor 233 that detects an error in a pachinko gaming machine, and the like are connected.

The main control device 231 outputs various signals for operating various devices of the pachinko gaming machine. For example, a central control device 234 for collecting and managing data of each gaming machine installed in a game store is connected to the main control device 231 so that data can be input from the main control device 231. The main controller 231 is connected with a payout controller 25, a symbol controller (display controller) 26, a lamp controller 27, and a voice controller 28 as sub-controllers. (Control command) is outputable.
Here, since the payout control device 25 performs the main control of the game in the pachinko gaming machine for substantially paying out the winning ball, it is included in the main control unit 23, and the symbol control related to the effect of the game The device 26, the lamp control device 27, and the sound control device 28 are included in the sub-control unit 24.

  The main controller 231 is connected to first and second special figure indicators 4a and 4b, which are 7-segment LED displays, and the main controller 231 includes first and second special figure indicators 4a and 4b. Display control is performed. And the 1st and 2nd special figure indicator 4a, 4b alert | reports the result of the 1st lottery performed by the main controller 231 as mentioned above, and the 2nd lottery, The 1st and 2nd alerting | reporting means Function as. The main controller functions as a part of the first notification means and the second notification means because it controls the first and second special figure indicators 4a and 4b.

  In the actual processing of the main controller 231, there is a possibility that the first lottery process and the second lottery process for determining the big hit, the small hit, and the losing are performed as the same process in the same program. The processing as the means and the second notifying means may be performed by the same program, and the first lottery means and the second lottery means may be expressed as one means, and similarly the first notifying means and The second notification means may be expressed as one means.

  Even if the program is the same, the data such as the lottery probability can be made different in terms of processing. Also, different programs may be used instead of the same program.

  The payout control device 25 is connected to a game ball payout device 251 that is controlled by the payout control device 25 to pay out a prize ball and a rental ball, and reads out the data of the prepaid card 252 and controls the payout of the game ball. A CR unit 253 is connected via a ball lending signal control device 254. The payout control device 25 pays out a prize ball based on a command from the main control device 231 and pays a ball rental based on a ball lending signal input from the CR unit 253 via the ball lending signal control device 254. Perform control.

  The main control device 231 is connected to a normal variation solenoid 242 that drives the movable pieces 54 and 54 of the above-described normal variation prize-winning device 53. The main control device 231 is connected with a special variation solenoid 241 for driving the movable door 81 of the special variation winning device 8 and a small hit for driving the movable pieces 11a and 11a of the special variation winning device 11 for small hits. A fluctuation solenoid 243 is connected. These solenoids 241, 242, and 243 are controlled by the main controller 231.

  In addition, the main control unit 23 is not directly connected to the main control device 231, but includes a launch control device 236 that controls a launch drive device 235 of a hitting ball launcher (not shown) that launches a game ball into the game area 2a. The launch control device 236 is connected to a rotary operation handle 237 for operating the launch of a game ball, a launch stop button 238, and a touch sensor 239.

  The main control unit 231 of the main control unit 23 controls the progress of the game in the pachinko gaming machine, and includes a first start winning ball detection sensor 52, a second starting winning ball detection sensor 56, and a big winning ball detection sensor 82. When a game ball detection signal is input from the small winning big winning ball detection sensor 11c or the general winning ball detection sensor 131, that is, when a game ball wins each winning port, a command is output to the payout control device 25. Then, the game balls are discharged as prize balls.

  In addition, when a detection signal of a game ball is input from the passing ball detection sensor 91, the main control device 231 performs a process of adding the above-mentioned usual figure start memory number and determines the hit and deviation of the usual figure game. Random numbers used in the lottery process are acquired, and the usual figure fluctuation display game is started. At this time, the winning and losing of the ordinary game is determined by a lottery process, and a command is output to the symbol control device 26, the lamp control device 27, and the voice control device 28 for the display of the ordinary game, the notification of the result, and the production. To do.

  The main controller 231 performs a process of adding 1 to the above-mentioned first special figure hold number when the game ball detection signal is input from the first start winning ball detection sensor 52, and the first special figure game. A random number used in the first lottery process for determining the big hit, the small win and the loss is acquired, and the first special figure game is started. At this time, the first lottery process determines the big win, the small hit and the off of the first special figure game, controls the first special figure display 4a to display the first variation display game of the special figure, and A command is output to the symbol control device 26, the lamp control device 27, the voice control device 28, and the like for display of the first variation display game of symbols, notification of results, and production.

  Similarly, the main controller 231 performs the process of adding the above-described second special figure holding number when the game ball detection signal is input from the second starting winning ball detection sensor 56, and the second special figure game. A random number used in the second lottery process for determining the big hit, the small win and the loss is obtained, and the second special game is started. At this time, the second lottery process determines the big win, the small hit and the off of the second special figure game, controls the second special figure display 4b to display the second variation display game of the special figure, and A command is output to the symbol control device 26, the lamp control device 27, the voice control device 28, and the like for display of the second variation display game of symbols, notification of results, and production.

  That is, the main control device 231 functions as first and second lottery means for performing first and second lotteries for big hits, small hits and out of play. When the game ball detection signals are input from the first and second starting winning ball detection sensors 52 and 56, the hits for determining the big hit, the small hit and the off of the first and second special figure games described above. In addition to acquiring the random number for determination, a display mode (stop-displayed) is displayed at the end of the first and second variable display games of the special figure that is a big hit on the first and second special-figure indicators 4a and 4b. Random number (design random number) for determining a special symbol for determining the symbol (special symbol type) by symbol lottery.

  In the first special figure game, the start condition is that the number of the first special figure hold is 1 or more based on the winning of the game ball to the first start winning opening 51, the first special figure game or the first special figure game 2 is not in the big hit state (special game state) based on the big win that occurred in the special figure game, and is not in the big hit state that occurred in the small hit state of the first special figure game or the second special figure game, the first special figure All four things that are not in the game need to be established. Similarly, in the second special figure game, the starting condition is that the second special figure holding number is 1 or more based on the winning of the game ball to the second start winning opening 55, the first special figure game or Not being in a jackpot state (special game state) based on the jackpot generated in the second special figure game, not being in the jackpot state generated in the first special figure game or the second special figure game, All four things that are not in the game must be established.

  That is, the first special figure game starts when the previous first special figure game ends, and the second special figure game starts when the previous second special figure game ends. Therefore, a plurality of first special figure games are not performed in parallel, one by one, and a plurality of second special figure games are not performed in parallel, and are performed one by one. However, since the first special figure game and the second special figure game are controlled individually and independently, the first special figure game and the second special figure game can be performed simultaneously in parallel. Yes. In this example, the lottery probability that is a big hit of the first special figure game (first lottery) and the lottery probability that is a big hit of the second special figure game (second lottery) are made equal. The jackpot probability is 1/315, for example.

On the other hand, the hit probability is different between the first special figure game (first lottery) and the second special figure game (second lottery). For example, the small hit probability in the first special figure game The probability is 1/1000, and the small hit probability of the second special figure game is 300/315.
Accordingly, in the first special figure game, the small hit probability is set to be smaller than the big hit probability, and the small hit is less likely to occur than the big hit, and the small hit is generated only rarely.
On the other hand, in the second special figure game, a small hitting probability is set so that it will be a big hit instead of a small hit every 21 times, and in most cases, the probability that a small hit will occur. ing. As described above, a big hit is generated with a probability of 1/315 and a small win is generated with a probability of 300/315, so that the probability of occurrence of a loss is 14/315.

  The lengths of the first and second special figure games are first and second variable display times (first and second variable display times) that are periods during which the first and second special figures (first and second decorative symbols) are variably displayed. Second notification time), and a fixed display time for displaying the first and second special symbols (first and second decorative symbols) as stop symbols fixed and displayed to the player after the variable display time has elapsed. It is a combination.

  The first and second variable display times (first and second notification times) are basically determined by lottery, but in this example, as described later, the first and second variable display times have been partially determined in the past. Is different. The fixed display time may be determined by lottery, or may be changed based on the winning or losing of the lottery, but here the fixed display time is constant.

As described above, when the game ball detection signals are input from the first and second start winning ball detection sensors 52 and 56, the variable display times of the first and second special figure games are determined. A random number for determining the lottery is acquired. In the main controller 231, the first and second variation display times are data included in the basic variation pattern, and are determined by selecting one basic variation pattern from a plurality of types of basic variation patterns.
That is, the main control device 231 functions as notification time determining means for determining the first notification time as the variable display time of the first special figure game and the second notification time as the variable display time of the second special figure game. .

In addition, the main control device 231 determines the big hit, the small hit and the first and second special figure games to be started based on the acquired random numbers at the start of the first special figure game and the second special figure game. In addition to determining the outage, corresponding to the lottery results of the big win, the small win and the outage, the stop symbols to be displayed as the lottery results of the first and second special figure games are determined by lottery, and further corresponding to these results The basic variation pattern including the above-described variation display time is determined by lottery.
The main controller 231 performs the first special game and the second special game in parallel, and the first special game and the second special game as described above in the big hit state and the small hit state. Does not start. Then, when the big hit state or the small hit state is based on the big hit or the small hit of one of the first special figure game or the second special figure game, the other special figure game is a big hit or small hit It is assumed to be forcibly disregarded regardless of disengagement. Also, in the case of big wins and small wins, the other special game is terminated regardless of the notification time before generating the big win state.

  And in this state, that is, one special figure game is ended with a big win or small win and the other special figure game is not being played, or if it is being played, Since the first or second special figure game is not started during the big hit state and the small hit state, the first special figure game and the second special figure game are performed during the big hit state. It will be in a state that is not broken.

  As described above, when the result of either the first special figure game or the second special figure game is a big win, that is, the result of either the first lottery or the second lottery is a big hit. When this happens, the above jackpot state is generated. That is, the main control device 231 controls the drive source (special variation solenoid 241) of the movable door 81 of the special variation winning device 8 to change the special variation winning device 8 from the closed state to the opened state based on a predetermined condition. Control is performed to cause the jackpot state to occur and to end the same. That is, the main control device 231 functions as a hit state control means.

  When the first special figure game and the second special figure game are jackpots, for example, a big hit state of 15 rounds is performed. The end condition of each round at this time is a little less than 30 seconds from the start of opening of the special variable prize winning device 8, or nine winning game balls to the special variable prize winning device 8, and since the release time is long, it is 15 rounds. There is a very high probability that nine game balls will win each round. Note that in addition to the 15 round jackpot, a so-called sudden probability change and sudden round-off 2 round jackpot may be generated.

  Further, main controller 231 determines whether or not to generate a so-called probability fluctuation state (a high probability state and an electric chew support state) after the end of the jackpot state. In this example, the pachinko gaming machine is a digipachi having a normal probability variation function. Then, in the case of a big hit in the first special figure game or the second special figure game and a big hit state occurs, whether or not to make a certain change after the big hit state is the first that triggered the occurrence of this big hit state It is determined by the special symbol stopped and displayed on the first special figure display 4a or the second special figure display 4b at the end of the special figure game or the second special figure game.

  In other words, special symbols include outlier special symbols, jackpot special symbols, and jackpot special symbols. The jackpot special symbols include a normal special symbol and a probability variation state (probability change) after the jackpot state. If the special symbol of probability variation is determined by lottery as a stop symbol in the special symbol game that is a big hit, the probability variation will occur. Therefore, whether or not to cause a probability change is determined by the main controller 231 that determines the stop symbol by lottery.

  From the above, the main controller 231 functions as a probability state control unit that controls the occurrence of a probability variation state (high probability state). In other words, the main controller 231 determines whether the first jackpot is generated based on the jackpot in each case where the first lottery result is a jackpot and the second lottery result is a jackpot. In the advantageous lottery, whether the normal state or the high probability state (probability variation state) advantageous to the player compared to the normal state is determined by the advantageous lottery, and the jackpot state based on the result of the advantageous lottery At the end, the normal state or the high probability state is generated.

  Further, the main control device 231 as the probability state control means can increase the period of the open state per unit time of the normal variation winning device 53 in the high probability state from the normal state, and the first in the high probability state. By making the probability that the result of the lottery and the result of the second lottery will be a big hit from the normal state, the high probability state is made more advantageous to the player than the normal state. That is, in the probability fluctuation state that is a high probability state, the above-mentioned electric chew support state is set, and for example, a high probability state in which the jackpot probability is increased by about 10 times.

  Note that the main control device 231 has a positive change (high probability state) before the small hit state occurs when the first special figure game or the second special figure game is a small hit and a small hit state occurs. In this case, the probability change is continued after the small hit state without terminating the probability change due to the occurrence of the small hit state. Therefore, the main control device does not perform a lottery to determine whether or not to generate a probability change after the small hit state when the small hit occurs, and the state before the small hit state is maintained even after the small hit state. That is, if the state before the small hit state is a normal state, the normal state is also obtained after the small hit state. Further, the time shortening state (low probability advantageous state) does not occur after the small hit state.

  Further, the main control device 231 controls the drive source (normal variation solenoid 242) of the movable pieces 54 and 54 of the normal variation winning device 53 to control the normal variation winning device 53 when the normal game is won. Control is performed from the closed state to the open state.

  Here, the probability variation state described above refers to, for example, the probability of jackpot lottery (first lottery and second lottery) by the main control device 231 (main board) in a normal state (probability variation state, time reduction state, jackpot state). In other states, the probability variation state is different from the low probability state (if the probability variation state becomes a low probability state) (high state), the time shortened state is the variation display of the regular diagram game in the regular drawing lottery The time is shortened, and the probability of the jackpot lottery is set to the same low probability as in the normal state. Further, in the probability variation state, generally, the probability of the jackpot lottery is increased, and the processing of the normal game (electric chew support) in the time shortening state is added.

More specifically, the probability variation state is a state in which the normal game and the first and second special game are played under the following conditions including the same processing as the time reduction state described above.
First, in the usual game, the following control is performed. In addition, the control of the following general game (variable lottery) is referred to as electric chew support as described above.
1. The normal map change display time from the start to the end of the general map game (the time that is changed and displayed so that the normal map is switched sequentially (the general map notification time)) and the general map fixed display time (the normal map game display time) One game is processed for each game time consisting of the time when the stopped general map is displayed in a finalized state). By shortening the (display time), the number of executions of the usual game per unit time is increased from the normal state (a state in which neither the probability variation state, the time shortening state nor the big hit state). That is, the game time is shortened.

2. The lottery probability for winning the usual game is set to a high probability state higher than the normal state.
3. When the normal game is won and the normally variable winning device is opened, the opening time is made longer than the normal state (in this case, the number of times of opening per win may be increased).

  In the probability fluctuation state and the time shortening state, the probability of hitting the ordinary game in 2 is made high by making the number of times of the ordinary game per unit time in 1 significantly higher than the normal state. It is good also as what does not perform.

  In addition, the control of the first special figure game (first lottery) and the second special figure game (second lottery) in the probability variation state is such that the lottery probability for winning the first and second special figure games is higher than the normal state. The height is increased (for example, about 10 times). Such control in the first special game and the second special game is referred to as a high probability state. In addition, a state in which only the above-mentioned electric chew support is performed without the high probability state is a time reduction state.

  In this example, an ordinary variation winning device 53 is provided at the first starting winning opening 51, and the number of winning game balls to the first starting winning opening 51 increases in the probability variation state or the time shortening state. However, the number of winning game balls to the second start winning opening 55 does not increase. In addition, the first start winning opening 51 is located at a substantially central portion on the left and right below the variable display device 3, and the game ball is placed in the first starting winning opening 51 by using a normal way of firing the game ball weakly. It will be easy to win. On the other hand, since the second start winning opening 55 is on the right side of the variable display device 3 (the opposite side to the left side where the game ball flows into the game area 2a), so-called right-handed to strengthen the launch force of the game ball. Otherwise, the game ball is difficult to win.

The time reduction state occurs when the jackpot state ends as described above and does not become a probability fluctuation state. For example, a predetermined number of times of the first special game and the second game from the end of the jackpot state. The game ends when a special game in which the special game is met, for example, when 100 special game is played.
In addition, the probability variation state is started when the jackpot state corresponding to the hit is completed in the first special figure game or the second special figure game, as described above, with a positive change. It ends when the next hit occurs in the first special figure game or the second special figure game and the big hit state is started.

  Also, in this example, when a big hit occurs in one special figure game, when the other special figure game is variably displayed, that is, when the notification time (variable display time) is being measured, Regardless of the lottery result of the big game, the big game, or the special game, it is controlled so as to forcibly notify the game game as a result of the other special game. Also, when a big win or a small win occurs in one special figure game and the other special figure game is in a variable display, even if there is a remaining notification time in the other special figure game, one special figure Before the big hit state or the small hit state based on the big hit or small hit notification in the game occurs, the other special game is ended.

  Therefore, when the big win or the small win is notified in one special figure game while the other special figure game is being executed, the other special figure game is informed of the loss, and the special figure game and the other special figure are notified. The game ends almost at the same time, and a jackpot state or a jackpot state based on the jackpot or jackpot of one special figure game occurs.

  Also, in this example, when a small hit occurs in one special figure game, when the other special figure game is variably displayed, that is, when the notification time (variable display time) is being measured, Regardless of the lottery result of the special figure game, the control is performed so as to forcibly notify the loss as a result of the other special figure game. In this case, as in the case where one special figure game is a big hit, the other special figure game is ended even if there is a remainder in the notification time.

  Further, in this example, the second start winning opening 55 is provided on the right side of the variable display device 3, and if the player increases the firing force and does not fire the game ball in the right-handed state, the game ball is second started. Although it is difficult to win the winning opening 55, the first starting winning opening 51 is located at the approximate center of the left and right below the variable display device 3. If it is a person, it will be awarded to the first start winning opening 51. Even when the player is hit right, a game ball can be won in the first start winning opening 51.

Therefore, if the player hits the game ball in a normal manner with a weaker firing force, the game ball will mainly win the first start winning opening 51, the first lottery will be performed, and the result of the first lottery The first special figure game for notifying the player is performed, and the second special figure game for notifying the result of the second lottery is not so much played.
In addition, a variable winning device 53 is provided at the first starting winning opening 51, and when the probability is changed, a game ball is won at the first starting winning opening 51 by the above-mentioned electric chew support, and the first special game is frequently performed. In this case as well, if it is a normal way to play, the first special figure game is mainly played, and the second special figure game is not played.

Therefore, in this pachinko gaming machine, as long as the usual way of hitting, the first special figure game is mainly played, and the second special figure game is not often played. Accordingly, the state is almost the same as that of a conventional pachinko gaming machine that performs one special figure game.
Here, in the probability change, for example, when a jackpot without probability change occurs in the first special figure game, the jackpot state based on the jackpot is generated, the probability change ends, and the time is shortened after the jackpot state ends ( In this example, if the probability is not changed after the big hit state, the time is always generated. However, the normal state may be generated, and either the short time or the normal state may be generated depending on the situation. May be).

  Here, as described above, there is a high probability that the second lottery result that is notified in the second special figure game will be a small hit, and the lottery result that is a big hit without any probability change in the first special figure game during the probability change is notified. In this case, if a small hit is generated in the second special figure game during the first special figure game, the first special figure game will be lost, and the probability change will continue without ending. . Then, if a big hit with a probability change occurs next in the first special figure game, the probability change can be continued even after the big hit state. In other words, every time a big win without probability change occurs in the first special figure game, if a small hit is generated in the second special figure game and the first special figure game is disengaged, the probability change state is continued continuously. Is possible.

  In this case, if the first special figure game occurs during the probability change, and if a big hit without any particular probability change occurs, the first special figure game is started if the notification time of the first special figure game is short. Before the end of the first special figure game that has already been started by letting the game ball enter the second start winning opening 55 between the end of the notification time and the notification of the winning lottery result. The second special figure game that is a small hit cannot be ended.

Therefore, the first special figure game that is undergoing probability change, in particular, the first special figure game that is a big hit without any probability change, needs to be longer than the second special figure game that is undergoing certainty change. In other words, the second notification time of the second special figure game during the probability change needs to be shorter than the first notification time of the first special figure game during the probability change, as will be described later.
In addition, as described above, the probability of winning the second special figure game needs to be extremely high.

  Further, in the first special figure game in which the result of the first lottery is a big hit and the big hit is notified, whether or not the big hit is accompanied by a certain change is determined at the start of the first special figure game or a long time has passed since the start. It is necessary to be notified at the stage that is not. That is, at the stage when it is notified whether or not the probability change has occurred, the remaining time of the first special figure game needs to be sufficiently longer than the second notification time of the second special figure game. Based on the notification of the occurrence of the non-probable big hit, the player hits the game ball to the right of the second start winning port 55, and the game ball wins the second start winning port 55, and the second special game is played. When the second lottery result which is started and the notification time of the second special figure game has passed and the small lottery is notified, the first notification time of the first special figure game needs to remain even a little. .

  In addition, in the case of a general digital pachi pachinko machine, when it becomes so-called reach, the reach state that is likely to change and the reach state that is not likely to change are displayed, so this may be a jackpot notification that will not change There is. However, there is a case where it is notified that the probability change will occur after the big hit state at the end of the change display or after that, even though the reach state is not changeable, and the reach state that does not change is displayed on the variable display device 3. In many cases, however, in practice, it is often impossible to determine whether or not a certain change will occur. Therefore, in this example, when the first special figure game that informs the result of the first lottery that is a jackpot that does not change at the end of the jackpot during the jackpot is being played, it is sure that it will not surely change at an early stage. It has come to inform.

  However, when the first special figure game for informing the lottery result that does not accompany the probability change during the probability change is started, it does not notify the occurrence of a jackpot that is not a probability change every time. Whether or not to notify is determined by lottery or the like, and only when it is determined to notify, the fact that a jackpot without probability change occurs is notified.

The symbol control device 26 of the sub-control unit 24 controls the variable display device 3 and the universal display device (LED display device) 6, and the variable display device 3 is connected via the video display processor 261. Has been. In addition, the variable display device 3 has a variable display time (first and second notification time) after the first special figure game and the second special figure game are started as the first and second special figure games described above. When this is done, the result of the first and second lotteries described above of the main controller 231 is notified, and functions as first and second notification means.
In addition, as described above, the symbol control device 26 determines whether or not to notify the first special figure game that notifies the first lottery result that does not accompany the probability change during the probability change, When it is determined to be notified, the variable display device 3 for displaying the first special figure game is displayed to notify that an uncertain change big hit without a probability change occurs.

  In addition, a win-and-go result is determined by a lottery process performed by the main controller 231 in the normal-fluctuation display game in the normal-map display device 6, and display is controlled based on the result.

The lamp control device 27 of the sub-control unit 24 is provided on the front frame that supports the board-related electrical decoration (LED) 271 provided on the board surface of the gaming board 1 and the gaming board 1 of the pachinko gaming machine. In addition, a frame door-related electrical decoration 272 such as a glass frame that covers the front surface of the game board 1 is connected to control the effects of LEDs, lamps, and the like.
The lamp control device 27 is connected with a general-purpose hold number display lamp 10, which can display the hold number by controlling the turning on and off of the LEDs.

  The sound control device 28 is connected to a sound generation device 281 including a sound processor, an amplifier, a speaker, and the like, and the sound control device 28 controls output of effect sound, voice, music, and the like for production.

  From the above, the pachinko gaming machine has a gaming board 1 on which a game ball is launched, a first start winning opening 51 and a second starting winning opening 55 provided on the game board 1, and a first starting winning opening. The main control device 231 as a first lottery means for executing a first lottery (first special figure game) for determining whether or not a game ball is won in 51 and a game ball in the second start winning port 55 Is based on the main controller 231 as the second lottery means for executing the second lottery (second special drawing game) for determining the winning and losing based on winning, and the execution of the first lottery by the first lottery means. Execution of the second lottery by the main controller 231 as the first notifying means for notifying the result of the first lottery when the first notification time (first variation display time) to start timing ends, and the second lottery means Second notification time that starts timing based on When the main control device 231 as the second notification means for notifying the result of the second lottery when the second variation display time) ends, and when the result of the first lottery that is a big hit by the first notification means, As a hit state control means for generating a big hit state for a predetermined period in which the player can acquire more game balls than the normal state when the second lottery means notifies the result of the second lottery that is a big hit In each case of the main controller 231 and the case where the result of the first lottery is a big win and the case where the result of the second lottery is a big win, the normal after the end of the jackpot state generated based on the big jackpot Or the probability that the results of the first lottery and second lottery will be a big hit as compared to the normal state, and the first start prize opening is within a unit time than the normal state. Enter Probability state control means for determining a high probability state (probability change) with a large number of possible game balls and generating a normal state or a high probability state at the end of the jackpot state based on the result of the probability lottery Main control device 231 as the main control device 231 as notification time determining means for determining the first notification time and the second notification time, and first notification time and second notification means timed by the first notification means When the one lottery result is a big hit at the end of one of the notification times counted by one of the second notification times timed in, the other notification means notifies the other When the notification time is counted, the main control device as a notification control means for forcibly rewriting the other jackpot lottery result as a deviation and notifying the other notification means of the result. Device 231.

  In such a pachinko gaming machine, the second lottery means has a jackpot in addition to the big win and out of the result of the second lottery, and determines the probability that the result of the second lottery will be a jackpot. If the result of the second lottery is a small hit, the hit state control means sets a small hit state in which a player can acquire less game balls than the big win state for a predetermined period. When the second lottery result is a small hit, the probability state control means does not perform the lottery to determine whether the normal state or the high probability state (probability change). The normal state or the high probability state before the hit state is maintained without being changed even after the small hit state is finished, and the notification time determining means makes the second notification time in the high probability state shorter than the first notification time. The above The intelligent control means forcibly disengages the jackpot result in the first lottery when the first notification time is counted when the second lottery result is notified by the second notification means. And the first notification means is notified of the result.

  In the pachinko machine, the result of the first lottery by the first lottery means is a jackpot during the high probability state (probability change), and the jackpot generated based on the jackpot determined by the probability state control means When the state after the state is a normal state, the normal time after the jackpot state is reached at the start or during the timing of the first notification time by the first notification means for notifying the result of the first lottery jackpot A normal hit notification means capable of notifying that a state occurs is provided.

  The normal hit notification means is generated based on the jackpot determined by the probability state control means while the result of the first lottery by the first lottery means is a big hit during the high probability state (probability change). When the state after the big hit state is a normal state, the normal time after the big hit state at the start or time of the first notification time by the first notification means for notifying the result of the first lottery Notification determining means for determining whether or not to notify the occurrence of this state.

  The second start winning opening 55 is provided with a sorting device 57 that distributes the game balls that can be won in the second start winning opening 55 into a state in which the game balls are won in the second start winning opening 55 and a state in which no winning is made. ing.

  There are also provided at least two special variable winning devices 8 (and small special winning device 11 for small hits) that open and close between a closed state in which game balls cannot be won and an open state in which game balls are easy to win. The variable winning devices 8 and 11 are closed in the normal state and the high probability state, and the special variable winning device 8 is opened and closed when the big hit state is reached based on the big win. By making it possible to win a lot of game balls in the special variable prize winning device 8, it is possible for the player to acquire a lot of game balls in the jackpot state, and the other special variable prize winning device 11 is used for the second lottery. By allowing the game ball to be awarded to the special fluctuation winning device 11 by opening and closing when the result is the small hit state based on the result that the small hit is achieved, In this state, the player can acquire less game balls than the game balls that can be acquired in the big hit state, and when the other special variable winning device 11 is released to the game board 1, the special variable winning device 11 is entered. An obstructing member (game nail 16) that obstructs the winning of the game ball is provided.

  In this example, when the jackpot state is changed to the probability variation state after the end, the variation display time (first notification time) of the first special figure game started in the probability variation state is set to be long, for example, several minutes. On the other hand, the variation display time (first notification time) of the second special figure game started in the probability variation state is set to be as short as about several seconds to five seconds, for example. Basically, the second notification time of the second special figure game in the probability variation (high probability state) is about 1/2 to 1/10 of the first notification time of the first special figure game, or more than that. Furthermore, it is preferable that it is short.

  Thus, during the probability change, the first special figure game is not accompanied by the positive change by making the first notification time of the first special figure game sufficiently longer than the second notification time of the second special figure game. In the case of a normal jackpot, the first special figure game is not accompanied by a certain change on the variable display device 3 while the first special figure game is starting or has not passed much time as described above. After the player is informed that a non-probable big hit will be made, the player causes the second start winning hole 55 to win a game ball to start the second special figure game, and the first special figure game is notified of the big hit. Before, the second special figure game is notified with a very high probability of a small hit, and the first special figure game that is a single big hit is forcibly dismissed, so the probability change ends without continuing. Can be prevented.

  Also, the symbol control device 26 determines whether or not to notify the main control device 231 based on the input of a command indicating that the first special figure game that is a big hit without any probability change is input during the probability change. When the lottery result is notified and the lottery result is notified, the variable display device 3 displays on the display of the first special figure game to be started that a non-probable change big hit that does not involve a certain change occurs. Become. In this example, this is notified at the start of the first special figure game.

In addition, the notification lottery determines whether or not notification is performed only for the first special figure game every time the first special figure game that is a big hit without any probability change is started. For example, when the notice lottery is performed, it may be determined whether or not the notice is performed when the predetermined number of jackpots to be generated in the first special figure game is a jackpot without any probability change.
That is, when the predetermined number of times is set to 10 times, for example, if a single big hit out of 10 big wins that will occur in the first special figure game will occur in the future, it is determined whether to notify all or not all. It may be determined by

In this case, a single big hit out of the ten big hits can be forced out of play by generating a small hit in the second special figure game as described above. In this case, if it is determined to be notified by the notification lottery, the probability change can be continued by the number corresponding to the probability change big hit out of 10 big hits.
Moreover, it is good also as a lottery whether to alert | report all the non-probable variation big hits which generate | occur | produce in the meantime until probability variation big hits generate | occur | produces predetermined times. In this case, if it is determined to be notified by the notification lottery, for example, if the predetermined number of times is set to 10, a chance to continuously generate 10 probability variation jackpots can be obtained.

In these cases, the notice lottery is performed every predetermined number of jackpots or every predetermined number of probability variation jackpots.
Further, the predetermined number of times described above may be set in a plurality of stages such as three times, five times, and ten times, for example, and it may be determined by lottery which stage the predetermined number of times is set.

Through the processing as described above, it becomes possible to distribute the advantageous state and the unfavorable state to the player by lottery performed by the symbol control device 26 instead of the main control device 231, and to make the game diverse. Can do.
Then, when the first special figure game started during probability change is a non-probability big hit without probability change as described above, the player is on the right side opposite to the side on which the game ball of the variable display device 3 is fired. In order to win the game ball in the second start winning opening 55, the rotary operation handle 237 is operated to increase the firing force of the game ball so that the game ball flows down to the right side of the variable display device 3. I do.

As a result, the possibility of winning the game ball at the second start winning opening 55 is increased.
Here, in order to win the game ball at the second start winning opening 55, it is necessary to flow the game ball into the cron 58 which is the sorting device 57 in this example. Since only about 1/3 of the game balls won in the Kroon 58 can win the game balls in the second start winning opening 55, the remaining time of the first notification time of the first special figure game that becomes a non-probable big hit However, it becomes difficult to win the game ball in the second start winning opening 55 while the second notification time of the second special figure game is longer.

  This is extremely high because the player always starts the second special figure game when generating the first special figure game per shot and generates a small hit in the second special figure game. If it is possible to prevent the occurrence of non-probable big hits with probability, it may be too advantageous for the player, so start and end the second special figure game in time to finish the first special figure game This increases the possibility of failure.

  Although the installation of the distribution device 57 is disadvantageous for the player, the player aims to aim at the second start winning port 55 (the distribution device 57) while firing the game ball, while continuing to change the probability. Being able to intervene in technology is highly likely to have interest, and technical intervention may fail, so that a thrilling feeling is generated in the game and the interest of the game is further enhanced.

  Note that the difference between the first notification time of the first special figure game and the second notification time of the second special figure game is shortened, or the probability of occurrence of a small hit in the second special figure game (second lottery) is reduced. For example, if the probability that the first special figure game, which is a non-probable big hit, is shifted in the small special hit of the second special figure game can be lowered, the distribution device 57 is not necessarily provided in the second start winning opening 55. Also good.

  Then, the game ball is won in the second start winning opening 55, the second special figure game is started, and before the uncertain change big hit is notified in the notified first special figure game, the second special figure game is started. If the small hit is notified, the first special figure game is forcibly dismissed, and the uncertain variable big hit is invalidated. As a result, it is possible to prevent the probability variation from being terminated without continuing due to the occurrence of the uncertain variation big hit.

In the following, forcible losing processing in which one special figure game causes a small hit to cause the other special figure game to be separated will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. Note that the forced off process is a process that is repeatedly performed by the main controller 231 every short time.
FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 are flowcharts showing the forcible deviation processing of the first special figure game.
As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, it is determined whether or not the first jackpot state flag is set (step S1). The first jackpot state flag is a flag that is set at the start of the jackpot state and reset to the end of the jackpot state.

The case where the first jackpot state flag is set will be described later.
If the first big hit state flag is not set, it is next determined whether or not the first big hit state flag is set (step S2). The first small hit flag is a flag that is set when a small hit occurs in the first special figure game and the first small hit state occurs, and is reset when the first small hit state ends. The case where the first small hit flag is set will be described later.
If the first small hit flag is not set, it is determined whether or not the first special figure game flag is set (step S3).

The first special figure game flag is a flag that is set when the first special figure game is started and reset when the first special figure game is ended.
When the first special figure flag is not set, it is determined whether or not the first special figure holding number is 1 or more (step S4). If the number of the first special figure hold is 0, the process is terminated, and if the number of the first special figure hold is 1 or more, the jackpot obtained in a known manner corresponding to the number of the first special figure hold A jackpot determination is performed by comparing the determination random number with the jackpot value and the jackpot value in the hit determination table to determine whether the jackpot or the jackpot is off (step S5). In the case of a big hit, the first big hit flag is set (step S6). As described above, the first jackpot flag is set when the jackpot determination at the start of the first special figure game is complete when all the start conditions of the first special figure game are complete, and is determined when the jackpot state ends. Reset.

  In the case of a small hit, a first small hit flag is set (step S7). As described above, the first jackpot flag is set when the jackpot determination at the start of the first special figure game is complete with all the start conditions of the first special figure game determined to be a small hit. Reset at the end of the state.

Next, when the jackpot determination result is a jackpot, it is determined whether or not there is a certain change. That is, it is determined (lottery) whether or not to enter the probable change state after the big hit state has occurred and ended after being a big hit (step S8). Note that the determination here is a determination as to whether or not to make a probable change after the jackpot state ends, and not a determination as to whether or not the current state is a probable change. Basically, at the time of jackpot determination as described above, the first special figure display 4a determines the stop symbol to be stopped when the game result of the first special figure game is confirmed by lottery, and whether or not the change depends on the stop symbol. It will be determined.
Then, if the determination result is a probability change, a first probability change establishment flag is set (step S9).

Note that the first certainty change establishment flag is set when it is determined that the big hit is determined by the jackpot determination described above at the start of the first special figure game, and the probability change is generated after the big hit state based on the big hit, and at the start of the certainty change. This flag is reset.
If the determination result is not a probability change, a notification command is output to the symbol control device 26 indicating that a first special figure game that will be a non-probability big hit without a probability change will occur (step S10). Here, the notification command is sent to the symbol control device 26 regardless of whether or not the current state is a certain change. However, the notification command is sent to the symbol control device 26 only when the present state is a certain change. It may be.
Next, it is determined whether or not a probability change flag is set, that is, whether or not the current state is a probability change (step S11). The probability variation flag is set at the start of the probability variation state, and is reset at the end of the probability variation state (when the jackpot state occurs).

  Next, a basic variation pattern including data of the first variation display time (first notification time) is determined in consideration of the presence or absence of the first jackpot flag, first probability variation establishment flag, probability variation flag, and time reduction flag. Basically, when the probability variation flag is set and the current state is probability variation, for example, a basic variation pattern having a long variation display time of about 20 seconds or more is set (step S12). When the reach is reached (including the case where the jackpot is reached), the basic change pattern of the long change display time is set, and when the reach is not reached, the basic change pattern of the short change display time is selected (step S13). It is like that.

Next, 1 is subtracted from the first special figure hold number (step S14). The addition of the first special figure reservation number is performed in a separate process when a game ball wins the first start winning opening 51.
Next, it is determined whether or not the time reduction flag is set (step S15). If the time reduction flag is set, it is determined whether or not the time reduction end condition is satisfied (step S16). Actually, the number of executions of the special figure game including the first special figure game and the second special figure game after the end of the big hit state is counted, and this execution number is, for example, 100 times as the predetermined number of times. In such a case, it is assumed that the time-saving termination condition is satisfied.

  Then, if the time-saving end condition is satisfied, the time-saving flag is reset and the time-saving state is ended (step S17).

Next, the first special figure game is started regardless of whether or not the above-described processing based on the time reduction flag has been performed (step S18).
And a 1st special figure game flag is set (step S19), and this process is complete | finished.
The display control of the first special figure display 4a is performed as a separate process, but is started by setting the first special figure flag. The variable display device 3 is controlled by a command output from the main control device 231 to the symbol control device 26 based on the set of the first special symbol flag, and the symbol control device 26 uses the first special symbol game in the variable display device 3. Display control is performed. In this example, in the variable display device 3, the first special figure game is displayed as the main variable display game. For example, the decorative symbols are displayed in a variable manner in three display areas. On the other hand, the second special game is displayed in one small display area as a sub variable display game at the corner of the variable display device 3. Further, the display area is not divided into a plurality of areas, and when the second notification time has elapsed, the result of the second lottery is displayed so that any one of the big win, the small hit, and the loss can be seen in one display area.

When it is determined in step S3 that the first special figure game flag is set, it is determined whether or not the second small hit notification flag is set (step S20). The second small hit notification flag is set when the small hit is notified in the second special game.
When the second small hit notification flag is set, the first special game currently being executed is forced by resetting the big hit flag regardless of whether or not the first big hit flag is set. (Step S21).

Next, the second small hit notification flag is reset (step S22).
Next, when the 2nd small hit flag is not set, it is determined whether the 2nd big hit notification flag is set (step S23). The second jackpot notification flag is a flag that is set when a jackpot is notified in the second special figure game.
When the second jackpot notification flag is set, the result of the first special game currently being executed is forced by resetting the first jackpot flag regardless of whether or not the first jackpot flag is set. The target is out of step (step S24).
Next, the second jackpot notification flag is reset (step S25).

Next, when both the second small hit notification flag and the second big hit notification flag are not set, it is determined whether or not the first notification time set at the start of the first special figure game has elapsed (first (Time-up determination of timer for counting one notification time) (step S26), if the first notification time has not elapsed, this process is terminated.
Then, in step S20, it is determined that the second small hit notification flag is set, or in step S23, it is determined that the second big hit notification flag is set, and the first special figure game is released. If it is determined that the first notification time is up in step S26, the first special figure game flag is reset and the first special figure game is ended (step S27).

Next, it is determined whether or not the first jackpot flag is set (step S28). If the first jackpot flag is not set, it is determined whether or not the first jackpot flag is set (step S29). ).
If neither the first big hit flag nor the first small hit flag is set, this process is terminated.

  If the first jackpot flag is set, the first jackpot notification flag and the first jackpot state flag are set (step S30), and the probability variation flag and the hourly flag are reset (step S31). Note that the probability change flag or the time reduction flag that is set may be reset only when either the probability change flag or the time reduction flag is set.

  And a 1st jackpot state is started (step S32) and this process is complete | finished. Note that the process of opening and closing the special variation winning device 8 in the first jackpot state is performed as a separate process.

  If the first small hit flag is set, the first small hit notification flag and the first small hit state flag are set (step S33). Here, the current state of the probability variation flag and the time reduction flag is maintained without resetting the probability variation flag and the time reduction flag. Then, the small hit state is started (step S34), and this process is terminated.

When the first jackpot state flag is set in step S1, it is determined whether or not the jackpot state end condition is satisfied (step S35). If the jackpot end condition is not satisfied, this process ends.
If the jackpot end condition is satisfied, the first jackpot flag and the first jackpot state flag are reset to end the jackpot state (step S36).

  Next, it is determined whether or not the first probability variation establishment flag is set (step S37). If the first probability variation establishment flag is set, the probability variation flag is set and a probability variation state is generated. (Step S38). Then, the first certainty change establishment flag is reset (step S39). Note that the probability variation state is performed in a separate process, and increases the probability of jackpot probability in the first lottery and the second lottery, and the process of electric support.

On the other hand, if the first certainty change establishment flag is not set, the time reduction flag is set, and the time reduction processing is started (step S40). Note that the electric chew support in the time-saving process is performed in a separate process.
If it is determined in step S2 that the small hit state flag is set, it is determined whether or not the small hit state end condition is satisfied (step S41). End the process. If the end condition is satisfied, the first small hit flag and the first small hit state flag are reset to end the small hit state (step S42).
The end condition of the small hit state is, for example, the elapse of a predetermined time after the special variable winning device 11 for small hits is in the open state and nine winnings of the game ball, but the predetermined time is, for example, 1 second or less Therefore, it is difficult to win nine game balls.

  Next, with reference to the flowcharts of FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, forcible deviation processing in the second special figure game will be described. Note that the forced loss processing of the present invention is performed for the purpose of forcibly dismissing the first special figure game when a small hit and a big win occur in the second special figure game and these are notified. Although it is processing, basically the same processing is performed in the second special game.

Also, in the flowcharts of FIGS. 3 and 4 and the flowcharts of FIGS. 5 and 6, the same processing is performed as different processing, but in practice, there is something that can be executed as one processing, It may be performed as one process. For example, processing such as the end of the big hit state, the small hit state, and the probability variation state need not be performed separately for the first special figure game and the second special figure game.
As described above, since the process in the first special figure game and the process in the second special figure game are substantially the same process, the processes in the flowcharts of FIGS. The same steps as those in the flowchart are given the same step numbers, and the description will be simplified. In the flowcharts of FIGS. 3 and 4 and the flowcharts of FIGS. 5 and 6, the first and the second are interchanged.

As shown in FIG. 4, it is determined whether or not the big hit state flag is set (step S1).
When the big hit state flag is not set, it is determined whether or not the second small hit state flag is set (step S2). Next, it is determined whether or not the second special figure game flag is set (step S3), and if it is not set, it is determined whether or not the second special figure holding number is 1 or more (step S4). If it is 1 or more, the big hit determination of the second lottery is performed and it is determined whether the big hit or the small hit is off (step S5). In the case of a big hit, the second big hit flag is set (step S6).

In the case of a small hit, the second small hit flag is set (step S7).
Next, when the result of the jackpot determination is a jackpot, it is determined whether or not there is a certain change (step S8). Only when the determination result is a probability variation, the second certain probability change flag is set (step S9).
Next, it is determined whether or not the probability variation flag is set (step S11).
In the process of the second special figure game, even if the second special figure game that is a big hit without any probability change is started, the process of notifying this is not performed, but it may be performed.
When the probability variation flag is set and the current state is probability variation, for example, a basic variation pattern having a variation display time as short as several seconds to about 5 seconds is set (step S12). A basic time variation pattern is selected (step S13).

Next, 1 is subtracted from the second special figure holding number (step S14).
Next, it is determined whether or not the time reduction flag is set (step S15).
If the time reduction flag is set, it is determined whether or not the time reduction end condition is satisfied (step S16). Then, if the time-saving end condition is satisfied, the time-saving flag is reset and the time-saving state is ended (step S17).

Next, the second special figure game is started (step S18).
And a 2nd special figure game flag is set (step S19), and this process is complete | finished.
When it is determined in step S3 that the second special figure game flag is set, it is determined whether or not the first small hit notification flag is set (step S20). The first small hit notification flag is set when the small hit is notified in the first special game.
If the first jackpot notification flag is set, the second special game currently being executed is forced by resetting the jackpot flag regardless of whether the second jackpot flag is set or not. (Step S21).

Next, the first small hit notification flag is reset (step S22).
Next, when the first small hit notification flag is not set, it is determined whether or not the first big hit notification flag is set (step S23).
When the first jackpot notification flag is set, the result of the second special game currently being executed is forced by resetting the second jackpot flag regardless of whether the second jackpot flag is set or not. The target is out of step (step S24).
Next, the first jackpot notification flag is reset (step S25).

Next, when the first small hit notification flag is not set and the first big hit notification flag is not set, it is determined whether or not the second notification time set at the start of the second special figure game has elapsed. (Step S26) If the second notification time has not elapsed, this process is terminated.
Then, it is determined in step S20 that the first small hit notification flag is set, or in step S23, it is determined that the second big hit notification flag is set. If it is determined that the second notification time is up in step S26, the second special figure game flag is reset and the second special figure game is ended (step S27).

Next, it is determined whether or not the second jackpot flag is set (step S28). If the second jackpot flag is not set, it is determined whether or not the second jackpot flag is set (step S20). ).
If neither the second big hit flag nor the second big hit flag is set, this process is terminated.

If the second jackpot flag is set, the second jackpot notification flag and the second jackpot state flag are set (step S30), and the probability variation flag and the time reduction flag are reset (step S31).
Then, the second jackpot state is started (step S32), and this process is terminated. In the second jackpot state based on the second lottery, the above-mentioned 15 round jackpot state is generated.
If the second small hit flag is set, the second small hit notification flag and the second small hit state flag are set (step S33). Then, the small hit state is started (step S34), and this process is terminated.

When the second jackpot state flag is set in step S1, it is determined whether or not the jackpot state end condition is satisfied (step S35). If the jackpot end condition is not satisfied, this process ends.
If the jackpot end condition is satisfied, the second jackpot flag and the second jackpot flag are reset to end the jackpot state (step S36).

  Next, it is determined whether or not the second probability variation establishment flag is set (step S37). If the second probability variation establishment flag is set, the probability variation flag is set and a probability variation state is generated. (Step S38). Then, the second certainty change establishment flag is reset (step S39).

On the other hand, if the second certainty change establishment flag is not set, the time reduction flag is set, and the time reduction processing is started (step S40).
If it is determined in step S2 that the small hit state flag is set, it is determined whether or not the small hit state end condition is satisfied (step S41). End the process. If the end condition is satisfied, the second small hit flag and the second small hit state flag are reset to end the small hit (step S42).

  By the above processing, when the first special figure game that is a big hit without any probability change is started, the main special control device 231 starts the first special figure game that is a big hit without any probability change to the symbol control apparatus 26. As shown below, the symbol control device 26 displays that the jackpot special game without probability change is performed on the variable display device 3 when the command is input during probability change. I do.

Based on this display, when the player wishes to win a small win in the second special game and makes the game ball win at the second start winning opening 55, the second special game is started. During the probability change, the variable display time (second notification time) of the second special figure game is shortened with respect to the variable display time (first notification time) of the first special figure game, and the first started first. There is a possibility that the second special figure game started after the special figure game ends earlier. Also, the second special figure game has a small hit with a very high probability. Then, when the second notification time elapses in the second special figure game that is a small hit prior to the first special figure game that is a big hit without any probability change, and the small special is notified, the first special figure game The jackpot without any probability change is forcibly dismissed, and the jackpot state does not occur. As a result, the probability change is continued.
Based on the above, it is possible for a player to intervene in the probability that the player who plays a pachinko machine as a digipachi will continue to show great interest, and this technical intervention will give this example to the player. The pachinko machine can be interested in the pachinko game, and the operation rate of the pachinko machine in the game store can be improved.

Next, with reference to FIG. 7, the non-probability change big hit notification start process for notifying the start of the first special figure game without any change in probability in the symbol control device 26 will be described. The uncertain change big hit notification start process is a process that is repeatedly performed by the symbol control device 26 every short time.
First, it is determined whether or not the probability is changing (step S51). A command indicating the start of probability change is output from the main control device 231 to the symbol control device 26 at the start of probability change, and a command indicating the end of probability change is output at the end of the probability change. For example, a probability changing flag is set when a command is input, and a process of resetting the probability changing flag is performed when a command for the end of probability changing is performed.

  If the probability change is not in progress, this process is terminated. If the probability change is in progress, it is determined whether or not a command indicating that the first special figure game without the probability change is started is input from the main controller 231. Determination is made (step S52). When the command is not input, the process is terminated. When the command is input, it is determined by notification lottery whether or not notification indicating that the first special figure game without probability change is started is performed. (Step S53). Then, it is determined whether or not the result of the notification lottery is to be notified (step S54). When the result of the notification lottery is not to be notified, the process is terminated, and when the notification is to be performed. Then, the display process for informing the variable display device 3 is started, and the process ends (step S55).

By determining whether or not to perform the notification on the symbol control device 26 side, the main processing related to the game such as the determination of the big hit or the small hit, the occurrence of the big hit state or the small hit state performed by the main control device 231 is performed. Thus, for example, without changing the data used in the processing of the main control device 231 such as the jackpot probability, it is possible to create a state in which the player's degree of advantage is different in the processing on the symbol control device 26 side.
That is, the game content can be greatly changed by changing only the program on the symbol control device 26 side without changing the program used in the main control device 231 or the data used in the program.

  In addition, the movement of a game ball in a well-known game machine is simulated on the display screen, and the winning of the game ball at the winning opening is determined, and the player's winning game corresponding to the launch of the game ball and the winning In the program for calculating the number of balls and simulating the game, the present invention also includes a program that can be executed by a computer by adding the processing of the control system in the pachinko gaming machine according to the present invention. A computer-readable recording medium storing the program is also included in the present invention.
