  The pachinko machine of the present application is provided with three types of big hits for each of the first special symbol and the second special symbol depending on the display mode to be stopped. FIG. 3 shows the number of times the special winning opening 33a is opened for each jackpot of the first special symbol and the second special symbol. As shown in FIG. 3, the jackpot of each of the first special symbol and the second special symbol is different in the number of times the special winning opening 33a is opened. The jackpot 1 is twice for both the first special symbol and the second special symbol. Similarly, the big hit 2 is 5 times for both. Similarly, the big hits 3 are both 15 times.

  In general, the player recognizes the difference in the type of jackpot based largely on the difference in the number of acquired game balls due to the difference in the number of times that the big winning opening 33a is opened. Accordingly, even if the number of rounds (the number of times that the operating condition of the big prize opening 33a is established) is different, if the number of times of operation of the big prize opening 33a from which a large number of game balls can be acquired is the same, the same type of big hit Be captured. However, when the operation of the big prize opening 33a in which the acquisition of the game ball cannot be expected is added, the player feels uncomfortable.

  In the present invention, the operation of the big prize opening 33a in which the acquisition of the game ball cannot be expected is performed in accordance with the interval display mode in the effect symbol display device 54b, and the interval display mode has the same content as the big hit with different round numbers. Therefore, even if the operation of the big prize opening 33a in which the acquisition of the game ball cannot be expected, the player is not made aware of it and the player does not feel uncomfortable.

  At the start of the big hit, the player senses the contents of the big hit by the stop mode of the effect symbol displayed on the effect symbol display device 54b or the effect mode at the start of the big hit. As for the stop pattern of the winning symbol, the big bonus 3 of the first special symbol has three numbers “7”. The jackpot 3 of the second special symbol is a set of 3 "3". The jackpot 2 is a set of 3 numbers other than 7 and 3. The jackpot 1 is a set of three symbols “$”. The stop mode that is a big hit is not limited to this. Moreover, the effect aspect displayed on the effect symbol display apparatus 54b at the time of the jackpot start in this bullet ball game machine is shown in FIG.

  FIG. 4 (1) shows a mode displayed on the effect symbol display device 54b when one big hit occurs (common to the first special symbol and the second special symbol). The jackpot 1 is the number of times the special winning opening 33a is opened in any special symbol. This opening operation is executed as a trigger when the jackpot lottery probability shifts from the normal probability to the high probability, and the two opening operations are extremely short operation times. Therefore, although it is not expected to acquire a game ball at that time, the expectation for continued games increases as the jackpot lottery probability shifts to a high probability. As a matter of course, the notification of the opening of the special winning opening 33a accompanying the opening operation is not performed.

  FIG. 4 (2) shows a mode of display on the effect symbol display device 54b at the start of jackpot 2 (common to the first special symbol and the second special symbol) and jackpot 3 of the second special symbol. The jackpot starting from this display mode is a jackpot that can be expected to acquire a game ball by opening the big winning opening 33a, and so-called round display in the effect symbol display device 54b from the first opening of the big winning opening 33a to the fifth opening. The number of times the special winning opening 33a is opened is notified. It should be noted that the number of times of opening of the big winning opening 33a for the big special 3 of the second special symbol is 15, but the notification of the number of times of opening is not performed for the second half 10 times.

  FIG. 4 (3) is a mode displayed on the effect symbol display device 54b at the start of the big hit 3 of the first special symbol. The jackpot starting from this display mode is a jackpot that can be expected to acquire a larger amount of game balls than the jackpot starting from the display mode of FIG. 4 (2), and from the first opening of the big winning opening 33a to the 15th opening stage The display device 54b notifies the number of times the special winning opening 33a is opened as a so-called round display.

  By implementing the display modes shown in FIGS. 4 (1), (2), and (3), even if it is generated from a different special symbol or the number of times the big winning opening 33a is opened is different, Depending on the mode, the player will recognize the type of jackpot. The display mode in this case is derived from the effect motif of the pachinko machine, and is not limited to the contents shown in FIGS. 4 (1), (2), and (3).

  Next, the operation contents of the big prize opening 33a and the display form of the effect symbol display device 54b that can be recognized as the same kind of big hit without a sense of incongruity even if the big winning opening 33a has a different number of times of opening will be described.

  FIG. 5 shows the operation of the big winning opening 33a from the start to the end of the big hit 2 of the big special 2 (common to the first special symbol and the second special symbol) and the big special 3 of the second special symbol, and the display mode of the effect symbol display device 54b. FIG. The jackpot 2 of the first special symbol and the jackpot 2 of the second special symbol are the same time chart. However, in the explanation to be described later, the jackpot 2 and the second special symbol of the first special symbol are avoided. A big hit of 3 is used.

  In the first special symbol display device 29, when the first special symbol is stopped in a mode where the jackpot is 2, the start interval period is 7.0 seconds from that point of time as shown in FIG. In the start interval period, the special winning opening 33a is kept closed. The effect symbol display device 54b displays the start interval effect mode shown in FIG.

  When the start interval period ends, the special winning opening 33a performs an opening / closing operation by driving the special winning opening solenoid 33c. Specifically, as shown in (1) of FIG. 5, A, which is the opening period of the special winning opening 33a, and B, which is a 1.5 second closing period between opening until A is executed five times. Repeat alternately. In this case, A is closed when the special winning opening 33a is opened for 28 seconds, or is closed when nine game balls entered into the special winning opening 33a are detected by the count switch 33b. The effect symbol display device 54b during this period displays the mode of the contents shown in FIG. 6 in accordance with the timing of the opening operation start of the special winning opening 33a (the number on the lower right is the number of opening of A, and is counted for each opening. Up). By this display, the player is notified of the round of the game in which the opening operation of the big winning opening 33a is the number of times of opening since the start of the big hit. This display mode is derived from the effect motif of the pachinko machine, and is not limited to the contents shown in FIG.

  When the fifth opening of the big prize opening 33a is finished, the operation of the big prize opening 33a at the jackpot 2 of the first special symbol is finished. From this point, the closed state of the big prize opening 33a is set to 18. Hold for 5 seconds and the jackpot action ends. Further, the effect symbol display device 54b during this period displays an end interval ending effect mode for informing the end of the big hit shown in FIG. The display mode in this case is derived from the effect motif of the pachinko machine, and is not limited to the content shown in FIG.

  Next, the operation content of the jackpot 3 of the second special symbol will be described. In the second special symbol display device 30, when the second special symbol is stopped in a mode where the jackpot is 3, the special winning opening 33a and the production symbol display device 54b are until the fifth large winning opening 33a is released. The jackpot operation having the same content as the jackpot 2 of the first special symbol is performed.

  Specifically, when the second special symbol is stopped in a predetermined manner in which the jackpot is 3, the initial interval period is 7.0 seconds from that point. In the first interval period, the special winning opening 33a is kept closed. The effect symbol display device 54b displays the start interval effect mode of the contents celebrating the jackpot acquisition shown in FIG. In this case, the display mode is not limited to the content shown in FIG. 4 (2) as long as the content is the same as the jackpot 2 of the first special symbol.

  When the first interval period ends, the special winning opening 33a starts the opening / closing operation by driving the special winning opening solenoid 33c. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5 (2), A which is the opening period of the special winning opening 33a and B which is the closing period of 1.5 seconds between opening are alternately performed until A is executed five times. Repeat. The opening operation of A during this period is closed when the grand prize opening 33a is opened for 28 seconds, or when nine game balls that have entered the big prize opening 33a are detected by the count switch 33b. . The effect symbol display device 54b displays the mode of the contents shown in FIG. 6 in accordance with the timing of the opening operation start of the special winning opening 33a. The number on the lower right in FIG. 6 indicates the number of times A of the special winning opening 33a is operated, and is counted up every time A is opened, with the first operation being 1. By this display, the player is informed of the number of rounds of the game in which the opening A of the big winning opening 33a is the number of times of opening since the start of the big hit. The display mode in this case is not limited to the content shown in FIG. 6 as long as it is the same as the content displayed when the first special symbol jackpot 2 is implemented.

  In this way, from the start of the big hit 3 of the second special symbol to the end of the five opening operations by the A of the special winning opening 33a, the operation of the special winning opening 33a and the mode displayed on the effect symbol display device 54b Is the same operation from the start of the big hit 2 of the first special symbol to the end of the opening operation of the special winning opening 33a.

In jackpot 3 of the second special symbol, the following operation is continued.
