(Outline of operation of pachinko gaming machine in this embodiment)
Next, an outline of the operation of the pachinko gaming machine 1 in this embodiment will be described. In the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment, for example, there are 11 rounds (hereinafter simply referred to as “R”) and 16 rounds.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of an image displayed on the image display 21 when a game ball wins the first start opening 25a or the second start opening 25b and a special symbol lottery is performed. As shown in FIG. 5, a decorative symbol 37 is displayed on the image display 21. The decorative symbol 37 is a symbol for the production corresponding to the special symbol (the symbol displayed on the first special symbol indicator 31a or the second special symbol indicator 31b), and is displayed on the left area of the screen. 1 decoration symbol 37a, the 2nd decoration symbol 37b displayed on the center area | region of a screen, and the 3rd decoration symbol 37c displayed on the area | region on the right side of a screen are comprised. The first to third decorative symbols are variably displayed to indicate that the special symbols are fluctuating. Note that the display positions of the first to third decorative symbols on the screen may be changed. In this case, the symbol displayed on the left is the first decorative symbol 37a, the symbol displayed on the right is the third decorative symbol 37c, and the symbol displayed between the first decorative symbol 37a and the third decorative symbol 37c is the first decorative symbol 37c. It is set as 2 decorative symbols 37b. Moreover, the 1st-3rd decoration design may be arrange | positioned along with the up-down direction, and may be arrange | positioned along with the diagonal direction.

  Specifically, when the variation display of the special symbol is started, the first to third decorative symbols are variably displayed. For example, when a predetermined time has elapsed since the start of the special symbol variation display, the symbol written as “2” as the first decorative symbol 37a may stop as shown in FIG. 5A. When a predetermined time further elapses, the symbol written as “2” as the third decorative symbol 37c stops. As a result, reach is established and a reach effect is performed as shown in FIG. When the reach effect is performed, the decorative design 37 is reduced and displayed, for example, in the lower right area of the screen. During the reach effect, the first decorative symbol 37a and the third decorative symbol 37c remain stopped, but the second decorative symbol 37b continuously varies. In the reach effect, for example, the first character 38 and the second character 39 are displayed on the screen, and a moving image effect in which these characters fight is performed. When a predetermined time further elapses, as shown in FIG. 5D, a state in which the first character 38 defeats the second character 39 is displayed, and the second decorative symbol 37b written “2” stops. Then, a state in which three numbers are arranged is displayed (three decorative symbols are temporarily stopped). This informs the player that the result of the special symbol lottery is a big hit. That is, when the three decorative symbols 37a to 37c are arranged with the same numbers as the decorative symbol 37, a big hit is obtained. In the state shown in FIG. 5D, the decorative symbol 37 is not completely stopped, and is displayed in a manner that allows the player to recognize that the variation of the decorative symbol 37 has stopped. For example, the three decorative symbols are displayed in a state that slightly fluctuates up and down. Then, when a predetermined time has elapsed, as shown in FIG. 5E, the decorative symbol 37 is again enlarged and displayed at the center of the screen. In the state shown in FIG. 5E, the three decorative symbols stop (that is, do not change slightly up and down, completely stop), and the symbol “222” is confirmed and displayed (“222”). The player is informed that a big hit with the design of After that, as an opening effect, as shown in FIG. 5 (f), the characters “big hit” are displayed on the screen. The opening effect is an effect performed immediately before the big hit game is started. When the opening effect ends, the jackpot game is started. During the jackpot game, a round operation that closes and closes the grand prize winning opening 28 is performed, for example, 11 times (11 rounds), and a predetermined effect is displayed on the image display 21.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram showing another example of an image displayed on the image display 21 when a game ball wins the first start opening 25a or the second start opening 25b and a special symbol lottery is performed. 6 (a) to 6 (d), the manner in which the decorative design 37 changes is displayed, as in FIGS. 5 (a) to 5 (d). As shown in FIG. 6D, after “222” is displayed as the decorative symbol 37 (in this state, the decorative symbol 37 is slightly fluctuating up and down), and then the image shown in FIG. 6E is displayed. There is. As shown in FIG. 6E, the number “222” as the decoration symbol 37 is switched and the number “777” is fixedly displayed (that is, completely stopped without being fluctuated up and down). Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 6 (f), the characters “super jackpot” are displayed on the screen as an opening effect. After that, 16R jackpot game is started.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the number of rounds of the jackpot game and the game state after the jackpot game differ depending on which symbol the decorative symbol 37 is fixedly displayed. FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a relationship between a decorative symbol and a jackpot type at the time of final display.

  As shown in FIG. 7, when the symbol “7” is confirmed and displayed in a state where three symbols are arranged, it is a 16-round jackpot, and the gaming state after the jackpot game is a probability-changing gaming state. Here, the “probability game state” is a high-probability game state and a state with electric support. In the probable gaming state, the state where there is electric support continues until the next big hit, which is advantageous for the player. In addition, the 16-round jackpot is more advantageous to the player because the player can win more prize balls than the 11-round jackpot.

  On the other hand, when the three numbers other than “7” are confirmed and displayed in a state in which they are aligned, it means that the game is 16R or 11R jackpot, and after the jackpot game, it shifts to the probability change gaming state or the short-time gaming state. Here, the “short-time gaming state” is a low-probability gaming state and a state in which there is electric support until a special symbol lottery is performed a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times). The player can determine whether the 16R jackpot or 11R jackpot is just by looking at the decorative symbol 37 when the decorative symbol 37 is confirmed and displayed in a state where three symbols other than “7” are aligned. Can not. Similarly, when the decorative symbol 37 is confirmed and displayed in a state where three symbols other than “7” are aligned, the player can enter the probable gaming state after the jackpot game or enter the short-time gaming state. Cannot recognize whether to migrate.

  As described above, the player can determine to some extent the type of jackpot (16R jackpot, 11R jackpot, etc.) based on the decorative symbol 37 displayed on the image display 21 at the time of final display. In the case where even numbers of symbols other than “7” are confirmed and displayed together, the game may be shifted to the short-time gaming state with 11R big hit. In this case, when odd symbols other than “7” are confirmed and displayed together, it may be a 16R or 11R jackpot, and the game may be shifted to the probability-changing gaming state or the short-time gaming state.

  The jackpot type is uniquely determined by the display state when the special symbol (the symbol displayed on the first special symbol display 31a or the second special symbol display 31b) is stopped. For example, a special symbol indicating a jackpot that shifts to a probable gaming state with 16R jackpot (a special symbol indicating a jackpot is referred to as a “jackpot symbol”) is predetermined, and a jackpot that shifts to a short-time gaming state with 11R jackpot It is different from the special symbol that shows. Accordingly, the player can accurately determine the type of jackpot according to the display state when the symbols displayed on the first special symbol display 31a or the second special symbol display 31b are stopped.

  FIG. 8 is a diagram showing before and after the final display of the decorative symbol 37 and the effects performed during the jackpot game. In FIG. 8, it is shown in time series that the decorative symbol 37 is variably displayed for each type of jackpot and then confirmed, and then the jackpot game is performed. As shown in FIG. 8A, in the case of 16R jackpot and the fixed display of “7” symbol, first, (1) the decorative symbol variation effect is performed, and (2) three decorative symbols 37a. ˜37c are all in a slight variation state (in this state, the three symbols are “7” or other numbers). Then, (3) a fixed display is made with the symbol “7”. Thereafter, (4) the opening effect is performed, and (5) the first effect is executed. The first effect is an effect performed during the jackpot game, and is an effect indicating 16R jackpot. The player can recognize that it is a 16R jackpot by performing the first effect. The first effect is a moving image effect having a length corresponding to a period during which the first R-th to 16th R-th games are performed.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 8B, when the 11R jackpot is confirmed and displayed with a symbol other than “7”, as in the above, (1) a decorative symbol variation effect is performed, 2) The three decorative symbols 37a to 37c are all in a slight variation state (in this state, the three symbols are even numbers). Then, (3) it is fixedly displayed with a numerical symbol other than “7”. Thereafter, (4) the opening effect is performed, and (5) the second effect is executed. The second effect is an effect performed during the jackpot game, and is an effect indicating 11R jackpot. The second effect is a moving image effect having a length corresponding to a period during which the first R-th to 11th R-th games are performed, and the time is shorter than the first effect.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 8C, when the 16R jackpot is confirmed and displayed with a symbol other than “7”, as in the above case, (1) a decorative design variation effect is performed, and (2 ) The three decorative symbols 37a to 37c are all in a slight variation state (in this state, the three symbols are symbols other than “7”). Then, (3) it is fixedly displayed with a numerical symbol other than “7”. Thereafter, (4) the opening effect is performed, and (5) the second effect is executed. When the 11th R jackpot game ends, (6) the promotion effect is performed and the 12R R jackpot game is performed, and then (7) the first effect is executed. When the 16th R jackpot game ends, the first effect ends. Here, the “promotion effect” is an effect indicating promotion from 11R jackpot to 16R jackpot, and is an effect performed when shifting from the second effect indicating 11R jackpot to the first effect indicating 16R jackpot. . Inside the gaming machine 1, the type of jackpot is determined before the jackpot game is started. Specifically, whether or not the jackpot is won and the type of jackpot in the case of the jackpot is determined by a random number acquired in response to the winning of the game ball at the start opening. Therefore, the type of jackpot does not change from 11R jackpot to 16R jackpot during the jackpot game. However, by changing from an effect indicating 11R jackpot to an effect indicating 16R jackpot, the player can feel that the player has changed (promoted) from 11R jackpot to 16R jackpot. In this manner, when symbols other than “7” are confirmed and displayed together, the player can enjoy the performance while having an interest in whether the 16R jackpot or the 11R jackpot.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 8D, in the case of the n-th jackpot and 16R jackpot, (1) a decorative design variation effect is performed and (2) three decorative symbols 37a to 37c are arranged. (In this state, the three symbols become symbols other than “7” or “7”). Then, (3) a fixed display is made with the symbol “7”. Then, (4) the opening effect is performed, and (5) the third effect is executed. Here, the “n-th jackpot” means an n-th (for example, fifth) jackpot counting from the first jackpot in a state where the jackpot continues. The third effect is an effect that is executed only during the n-th jackpot game, and is a valuable effect that the player cannot frequently see.

  FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating the n-th jackpot in which the third effect is executed. In FIG. 9, the horizontal axis indicates the number of executions of the special symbol lottery. As shown in FIG. 9, when the state of the gaming machine 1 is the normal state (low probability state), when the first jackpot (one jackpot) is reached, the gaming machine 1 is in the probability variation gaming state (high probability state). State where there is electric support). In this case, the gaming machine 1 is in a state where it is likely to be a big hit, and even if the number of executions of the special symbol lottery is relatively small, it becomes the second big hit (big hit 2). Further, when the gaming machine 1 is shifted to the probability change gaming state when the second winning hit is made (assuming that the probability changing gaming state is continued), the third jackpot (big winning 3) is obtained. When the big hit of the third time, the gaming machine 1 has shifted to the short-time gaming state (low probability state, and there is an electric support until the special symbol lottery is performed 100 times, for example) Assume that the fourth jackpot (4 jackpots) is reached during that time (until the special symbol lottery is performed 100 times). If the gaming machine 1 shifts to the probability change gaming state when the fourth jackpot is reached, the fifth jackpot (big jackpot 5) is obtained with a relatively small number of times. During the fifth jackpot game, the third effect is performed. As described above, the state where the jackpot continues is a state where a predetermined gaming state (probability gaming state or time-saving gaming state) continues. In addition, after the jackpot 3 shown in FIG. 9, when the special symbol lottery is performed 100 times and the gaming machine 1 shifts to the normal state (that is, the state without the electric support), the jackpot is 1 Counted as the second jackpot.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 8E, in the case of the n-th jackpot and 11R jackpot, (1) a decorative design variation effect is performed, and (2) three decorative symbols 37a to 37c are arranged. A slight variation state occurs (in this state, the three symbols become symbols other than “7”). (3) A symbol other than “7” is fixedly displayed. Then, (4) the opening effect is performed, and (5) the third effect is executed.

  As described above, when the gaming machine 1 is continuously in the probabilistic gaming state or the short-time gaming state and continuously having a big jackpot, during the n-th (for example, the fifth) jackpot game, A third effect, which is a special effect, is performed. Specifically, when the n-th jackpot is a 16R jackpot, the symbol “7” is always determined and displayed. That is, as described above, even if it is 16R big hit, there are cases where (A) the symbol “7” is fixedly displayed and (C) the symbol other than “7” is fixedly displayed. However, at the n-th jackpot, if it is a 16R jackpot, the third effect is executed after the symbol “7” is definitely displayed. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, from the state where the symbols “2” are aligned and slightly changed as shown in FIG. 6D, the symbols “7” are determined as shown in FIG. 6E. May be displayed. Alternatively, instead of the symbol “2” in FIG. 6D, the symbol “7” is aligned and confirmed as shown in FIG. May be displayed. In other words, when the n-th jackpot is a 16R jackpot, the promotion effect during the jackpot game is not performed, and the symbol “7” indicating the 16R jackpot is determined and displayed before the jackpot game is executed. This prevents the promotion effect from being performed during the execution of the third effect.

  As described above, the third effect, which is a special effect, is performed at the n-th jackpot, so that the player can see a valuable effect when the jackpot is continuously generated. In the n-th jackpot, the third effect is stopped halfway and the promotion effect is not performed.

  Note that the first character may be continuously displayed on the image display 21 when the game is in the probability variation gaming state or the short-time gaming state since the first big hit. Further, when the game is in the probability variation gaming state or the short-time gaming state after the second big hit, the second character may be continuously displayed on the image display 21 together with the first character. . In this way, when the n-1th jackpot game is over and the game is in the probability variation game state or the short-time game state, the n-1th character from the first to the first display is displayed on the image display 21. . Then, when the n-th jackpot is reached, an effect may be performed indicating that the n-th character has appeared and the first to n-th characters are aligned. Thus, the player may be informed that the third effect is performed with n characters together (that is, the n-th jackpot).

  In the present embodiment, the 16R jackpot always shifts to the probability change gaming state after the jackpot game, and the 11R jackpot always shifts to the short-time gaming state after the jackpot game. In other embodiments, the 16R jackpot may include a jackpot that transitions to a probability change gaming state after the jackpot game and a jackpot that transitions to a short-time gaming state. In another embodiment, the 11R jackpot may include a jackpot that shifts to a probability-changing gaming state and a jackpot that transitions to a time-saving gaming state.

(Main processing by the main control unit 100)
Next, main processing performed in the main control unit 100 will be described. FIG. 10 is a flowchart illustrating an example of main processing performed by the main control unit 100. When the power is turned on, the CPU 101 executes a startup program stored in a boot ROM (not shown), thereby initializing each unit such as a memory (for example, the RAM 103). After initialization, the program stored in the ROM 102 is read into the RAM 103, and the CPU 101 executes the program. The main process shown in the flowchart of FIG. 10 is performed by the CPU 101 executing the program. Note that the main control unit 100 repeats a series of processes shown in FIG. 10 at regular intervals (for example, 4 milliseconds) during normal operation except for special cases such as when the power is turned on and when the power is turned off. Run.

  First, in step S11, the main control unit 100 performs a random number update process. In the random number updating process, the main control unit 100 updates various random numbers such as a jackpot random number, a design random number, a reach random number, a variation pattern random number, and a winning random number stored in the RAM 103. Here, the jackpot random number is a random number for determining the result of the special symbol lottery (the jackpot, the jackpot or the loss). The symbol random number is for determining the type of jackpot (the jackpot symbol (the symbol stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display 31a or the second special symbol display 31b)) when the result of the special symbol lottery is a jackpot It is a random number. Depending on the value of the design random number, whether 16R jackpot or 11R jackpot is determined. The reach random number is a random number for determining whether to perform an effect with reach or an effect without reach when the result of the special symbol lottery is lost. The fluctuation pattern random number is a random number for determining a fluctuation pattern (fluctuation time) when the special symbol is variably displayed. The winning random number is a random number for determining whether or not the normal symbol lottery is won or lost. The jackpot random number, the design random number, the reach random number, the fluctuation pattern random number, and the winning random number are incremented by “1” every time the process of step S11 is performed. Then, the value at the time when the game ball has won the first and second start ports or the game ball has passed to the gate 27 is the start port switch (SW) process in step S12 or the gate switch (SW) in step S13. It is acquired by the processing and used in the special symbol processing in step S14 and the normal symbol processing in step S15. Each random number returns to “0” after reaching the maximum value set for each random number, and is incremented by one again.

  Next, in step S12, the main control unit 100 performs a start port switch (SW) process. In the start port switch process, the main control unit 100 monitors the states of the first start port switch 111a and the second start port switch 111b, and when a detection signal is output from any of the switches, the first special symbol lottery is performed. , A process related to the reserved number U1 and the reserved number U2 of the second special symbol lottery, a process of obtaining random numbers (a jackpot random number, a design random number, a reach random number, and a variation pattern random number) are executed. Specifically, when the first start port switch 111a or the second start port switch 111b detects winning of a game ball, the main control unit 100 sets the hold number U1 or the hold number U2 to a predetermined number (for example, 4). Increase by 1 to the upper limit. Further, the main control unit 100 acquires the random number and stores it in the RAM 103 as a random number corresponding to the holding ball whose holding number U1 or U2 is increased. Further, the main control unit 100 performs a preliminary determination process based on the acquired random number. In the pre-determination process, the type of jackpot (16R jackpot, 11R jackpot, etc.), the presence / absence of reach, a variation pattern, etc. are determined based on the acquired random number as a result of the special symbol lottery. Is remembered as

  Next, in step S13, the main control unit 100 performs a gate switch (SW) process. In the gate switch process, the main control unit 100 monitors the state of the gate switch 113, and when the game ball passes through the gate 27 and a detection signal is output from the gate switch 113, the number of normal symbol lottery holds is the upper limit. Judge whether it is less than the value. And when it determines that the number of pending | holdings is less than an upper limit, the said winning random number used for the normal symbol process of step S15 is acquired.

  In step S14, the main control unit 100 performs special symbol processing. In the special symbol process, the main control unit 100 executes a special symbol lottery, and executes a process for suspending and displaying the special symbol on the first special symbol display 31a or the second special symbol display 31b. To do. Specifically, when the big hit game is not being played and the change of the special symbol is not started, the main control unit 100 reduces the number of reservations U1 or U2 by 1 and digests the reserved balls. More specifically, the main control unit 100 acquires a jackpot random number stored in the start port SW process related to the digested holding ball and performs a jackpot determination. In the jackpot determination, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not the result of the special symbol lottery is a jackpot by determining whether or not the acquired jackpot random number is equal to a value indicating a predetermined jackpot. In the jackpot determination, the main control unit 100 determines the jackpot type based on the acquired symbol random number. Further, the main control unit 100 determines a variation pattern (variation time) for varying the special symbol according to the result of the jackpot determination, sets a variation start command (special symbol variation start command) indicating the variation pattern, and , Start the special symbol variation. Moreover, when the variation of the special symbol has started, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not the variation time (determined variation time) has elapsed since the start of the variation, and the variation time has elapsed. In this case, the special symbol is stopped, and a special symbol fluctuation stop command is set to stop the fluctuation. The special symbol variation stop command includes information indicating whether or not the result of the special symbol lottery is a big hit, information indicating the type of jackpot (16R jackpot, 11R jackpot), information indicating the gaming state of the gaming machine 1, and the like. . Further, when the result of the special symbol lottery is a big win, the main control unit 100 sets an opening command for starting the opening effect after setting the special symbol fluctuation stop command.

  In step S15, the main control unit 100 performs normal symbol processing. In the normal symbol process, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not the winning random number acquired in the gate switch process in step S13 matches the winning value. Then, after the normal symbol is variably displayed on the normal symbol display 33 (see FIG. 2) of the display 3, the normal symbol indicating the determination result is stopped and displayed.

  In step S <b> 16, the main control unit 100 performs a big prize opening process. In the big prize opening process, the main control unit 100 performs the opening / closing process of the big prize opening 28 according to the result of the special symbol lottery. For example, when the result of the special symbol lottery is a big win, the main control unit 100 wins a big prize until a predetermined condition (for example, 29.5 seconds elapses or 10 game balls win) according to the type of the big win. The round in which the opening state of the mouth 28 is maintained is repeated a predetermined number of times (16 times or 11 times). In the special prize opening process, an open command indicating opening of the special prize opening 28 is transmitted from the main control unit 100 to the effect control unit 400 at the timing when the special prize opening 28 is opened. Therefore, for example, during a 16R jackpot game, an open command is transmitted from the main control unit 100 to the effect control unit 400 16 times. The main control unit 100 then sets the gaming state (probability changing gaming state, short-time gaming state, etc.) according to the type of jackpot after finishing the opening / closing process of the big winning opening 28. Further, for example, when the result of the special symbol lottery is a small hit, the main control unit 100 sets the large time so that the cumulative time that the special winning opening 28 is opened becomes a predetermined time (for example, 1.8 seconds). Opening and closing the winning opening 28 is repeated a predetermined number of times.

  Next, in step S <b> 17, the main control unit 100 performs an electric tulip operation process (electric tulip process), which is an example of an ordinary electric accessory. In the electric tulip process, the main control unit 100 performs an opening / closing process of the electric tulip 26 according to the result of the normal symbol lottery. For example, when the result of the normal symbol lottery is a win, the main control unit 100 opens and closes the electric tulip 26 in a predetermined pattern. Specifically, the main control unit 100 performs the opening / closing process of the electric tulip 26 with an operation pattern of 1.5 seconds × 3 times if, for example, the gaming state is a probability variation gaming state and a short-time gaming state. When the game state is a normal game state and a latent game state (a state with a high probability game state and no electric support), the opening / closing process of the electric tulip 26 is performed with an operation pattern of 0.15 seconds × one time. Do. Thus, the main control unit 100 opens and closes the electric tulip 26 with an operation pattern according to the gaming state. It should be noted that a plurality of normal symbol lottery types may be prepared, and the opening / closing pattern of the electric tulip 26 may be changed according to the type of winning.

  Next, in step S18, the main control unit 100 performs prize ball processing. For example, in the winning ball process, the main control unit 100 pays out winning balls according to the number of game balls won in the first starting port 25a, the second starting port 25b, the big winning port 28, and the normal winning port 29, respectively. Set the number.

  Next, in step S19, the main control unit 100 performs output processing. Specifically, the main control unit 100 outputs control commands to the firing control unit 200, the payout control unit 300, and the effect control unit 400, respectively. For example, the main control unit 100 outputs a control command indicating the number of payouts to the payout control unit 300 to instruct the payout control unit 300 about the number of payouts. The main control unit 100 also outputs a predetermined command (for example, a special symbol variation start command (S14), a special symbol variation stop command (S14), etc.) to the effect control unit 400. Above, description of the process performed in the main control part 100 is complete | finished.

(Production control processing by production control unit 400)
Next, the effect control process performed in the effect control unit 400 will be described. FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the effect control process performed by the effect control unit 400. When the power is turned on, the CPU 401 executes a startup program stored in a boot ROM (not shown), thereby initializing each unit such as a memory (for example, the RAM 403). After initialization, the program stored in the ROM 402 is read into the RAM 403 and the CPU 401 executes the program. The effect control process shown in the flowchart of FIG. 11 is performed by the CPU 401 executing the program. The production control unit 400 repeats a series of processes shown in FIG. 11 at regular intervals (for example, 4 milliseconds) during normal operation except for special cases such as when the power is turned on and when the power is turned off. Run. Further, in FIG. 11, processes that are not directly related to the present invention are omitted.

  First, in step S <b> 21, the effect control unit 400 determines whether a special symbol variation start command has been received from the main control unit 100. When the special symbol variation start command is received (YES in step S21), the effect control unit 400 next executes the process of step S22. On the other hand, when the special symbol variation start command has not been received (NO in step S21), the effect control unit 400 next executes the process of step S23.

  In step S <b> 22, the effect control unit 400 starts the variation of the decorative design 37 and selects and executes the effect in the variation. Specifically, the effect control unit 400 selects an effect corresponding to the special symbol change start command from a plurality of effects stored in advance. The special symbol variation start command from the main control unit 100 includes information indicating a variation pattern (variation time), information indicating whether or not the jackpot, information indicating the type of jackpot if it is a jackpot, and whether or not it is reach The information shown is included. The production control unit 400 selects production contents based on these pieces of information. And the production | generation control part 400 transmits the command for performing an effect with respect to the image sound control part 500, and the image sound control part 500 performs an effect according to the said command. Next, the effect control unit 400 executes the process of step S23.

  In step S <b> 23, the effect control unit 400 determines whether a special symbol variation stop command has been received from the main control unit 100. When the special symbol fluctuation stop command is received (YES in step S23), the effect control unit 400 next executes the process of step S24. On the other hand, when the special symbol fluctuation stop command has not been received (NO in step S23), the effect control unit 400 next executes the process of step S28.

  In step S24, the effect control unit 400 determines whether the result of the special symbol lottery is a big hit based on the special symbol variation stop command. If the determination result is affirmative, the effect control unit 400 next executes a process of step S25. If the determination result is negative, the effect control unit 400 next executes the process of step S26.

  In step S25, the effect control unit 400 adds 1 to the number of continuations n. Here, “the number of continuations n” is a value indicating the number of continuations when the jackpot continues, and is a variable stored in the RAM 403. The number of continuations n is initially set to 0.

  In step S26, the effect control unit 400 performs a special symbol lottery for a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times) after the gaming machine 1 shifts from the short-time gaming state to the normal gaming state (after the jackpot game has entered the short-time gaming state). When the normal state is reached, the number of continuations n is reset (set the number of continuations n to 0). When the current gaming state of the gaming machine 1 is the probability variation gaming state or the short-time gaming state, the effect control unit 400 does not reset the number of continuations n. Next, the effect control unit 400 executes the process of step S27.

  In step S <b> 27, the effect control unit 400 stops the variation of the decorative design 37 and displays the finalized display. By executing the process of step S22, the image display 21 displays a state in which the decorative symbol 37 changes (see FIGS. 5A to 5C). Immediately before the process of step S27 is executed, the decorative symbol 37 is in a state of slight fluctuation (see FIG. 5D). In step S27, the effect control unit 400 completely stops the decorative symbol 37 (see FIG. 5E). Specifically, the effect control unit 400 transmits a command for stopping the fluctuation of the decorative design 37 to the image sound control unit 500. The command includes information indicating the type of symbol to be confirmed and displayed. Specifically, the effect control unit 400 displays the symbol when the result of the special symbol lottery is a 16R jackpot and the continuation count n is a predetermined value (for example, 5). The symbol “7” is selected. In addition, when the result of the special symbol lottery is a 16R jackpot, and the number of continuations n is a value other than the predetermined value, the effect control unit 400 selects a symbol to be determined and displayed by lottery. To do. For example, “1” to “9” are prepared as symbols to be confirmed and the probability of selection is set in advance. The production control unit 400 selects one of the plurality of symbols by lottery. In addition, when the result of the special symbol lottery is 11R jackpot, the effect control unit 400 selects one symbol by lottery from symbols other than “7”. The effect control unit 400 transmits a command including information on the selected symbol to the image sound control unit 500. The image sound control unit 500 displays the design corresponding to the command from the effect control unit 400 on the image display device 21, thereby confirming and displaying the decorative design 37. The effect control unit 400 then executes the process of step S28.

  In step S <b> 28, the effect control unit 400 determines whether an opening command has been received from the main control unit 100. The “opening command” is a command for starting the opening effect, and is transmitted from the main control unit 100 immediately before the jackpot game is started. If the determination result is affirmative, the effect control unit 400 next executes a process of step S29. If the determination result is negative, the effect control unit 400 next executes the process of step S30.

  In step S29, the effect control unit 400 causes the opening effect to be executed. Specifically, the effect control unit 400 transmits a command for starting the opening effect to the image sound control unit 500. In response to the command, the image sound control unit 500 executes an opening effect (see FIG. 5F). As a result, information indicating that the game has been won is displayed on the image display 21. Next, the effect control unit 400 executes the process of step S30.

  In step S <b> 30, the effect control unit 400 determines whether an open command has been received from the main control unit 100. The “open command” is a command indicating that the special winning opening 28 has been opened, and is transmitted from the main control unit 100 during the jackpot game. If the determination result is affirmative, the effect control unit 400 next executes a process of step S31. When the determination result is negative, the effect control unit 400 ends the effect control process shown in FIG.

  In step S31, the effect control unit 400 controls the effect according to the progress of the round. For example, the effect control unit 400 causes the image sound control unit 500 to execute the second effect from the first Rth when the 16R jackpot is made and the symbols other than “7” are determined and displayed in step S27. In addition, for example, the effect control unit 400 is an opening indicating that the 12R big winning opening 28 is opened when the 16R jackpot game is being performed and the second effect is currently being performed. In response to receiving the command, the image sound control unit 500 is caused to execute a promotion effect. And the production | presentation control part 400 starts execution of a 1st production, after performing a promotion production. In addition, for example, when the effect control unit 400 is a 16R big hit and is confirmed and displayed with the symbol “7” in step S27, the image sound control unit 500 executes the first effect from the first Rth. Further, for example, when the 11R jackpot is made, the effect control unit 400 causes the image sound control unit 500 to execute the second effect from the first Rth. In addition, for example, when the number of continuations n is the predetermined value (for example, 5), the effect control unit 400 causes the image sound control unit 500 to execute the third effect from the first Rth. After the process of step S31, the effect control unit 400 ends the effect control process shown in FIG.

  As described above, the gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment notifies the player of the 16R jackpot by confirming and displaying the decorative symbol 37 on the image display 21 with the symbol “7” before starting the jackpot game. There is. If the symbol “7” is confirmed and displayed, the first effect is executed from the first Rth. In addition to the predetermined n-th jackpot, even if it is a 16R jackpot, a definite display of a decorative symbol 37 indicating that it is an 11R jackpot is performed, and a second effect is performed from the first Rth. In this case, the player is informed that the 16R jackpot is made by performing a promotion effect during the jackpot game. On the other hand, if the n-th jackpot is determined in advance while the jackpot continues, and if the n-th jackpot is a 16R jackpot, the symbol “7” must be displayed. Then, the third effect is executed. The third effect is an effect with a low appearance frequency that is executed only for the n-th jackpot. If the n-th jackpot is a 16R jackpot, if the second effect is executed with a symbol other than “7”, the promotion effect is performed at the 12th R in the jackpot game, and then A third performance will be performed. In such a case, the player can see the valuable third effect only for a short time after the promotion effect during the jackpot game is finished. However, in the gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, when the n-th jackpot is a 16R jackpot, the promotion effect is not performed during the jackpot game, and it is confirmed that the 16R jackpot is started before the jackpot game is started. Display is performed, and the third effect is performed from the first Rth. For example, in the reach effect of the change, after the decorative symbol 37 is displayed with a symbol other than “7” in a manner of recognizing that the player has stopped before the decorative symbol 37 is fixedly displayed, the symbol is switched to “7 May be confirmed and displayed. In other words, after the three symbols other than “7” are all slightly changed as the decorative symbol 37, the symbols are switched and completely stopped at the symbol “7”, thereby promoting before the round starts. Production may be performed. Here, the “promotional effect before the start of the round” means that the decoration symbol indicating “11R jackpot” is stopped and the decoration symbol “7” indicating “16R jackpot” is stopped before the jackpot game is started. An effect that informs that 16R is a big hit. In addition, for example, a reach effect is performed with the symbol “7” (that is, a state where two decorative symbols are stopped at “7” and one decorative symbol is fluctuating), and after the elapse of a predetermined time, the third By stopping the symbol “7”, the symbol “7” may be fixedly displayed.

(Modification)
Note that the pachinko gaming machine according to the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and may be the following form.

  For example, in this embodiment, 16R jackpot and 11R jackpot with a small number of rounds are prepared in advance. In another embodiment, a plurality of jackpots may be prepared in which the number of rounds is the same and the number of rounds in which a player can win a prize ball is different. For example, “substantial 16R jackpot” and “substantial 11R jackpot” may be prepared. Specifically, in a substantial 16R jackpot, the round in which the open state of the big winning opening 28 is maintained until a predetermined condition (for example, 29.5 seconds elapse or ten game balls are won) is repeated 16 times. Further, in the actual 11R jackpot, the round in which the big winning opening 28 is opened and closed is performed 16 times, but this is a jackpot that allows the player to substantially acquire only 11R worth of winning balls. For example, from the 1st R to the 11th R, a round operation is performed in which the open state of the big winning opening 28 is maintained until the predetermined condition (for example, 29.5 seconds elapses or 10 game balls are won) is satisfied. In the 12th to 16th rounds, a round operation is performed in which the open state of the special winning opening 28 is maintained until the second condition (for example, 0.5 seconds elapses) is satisfied. In the 12th to 16th Rs, the time for opening the grand prize winning opening 28 is short, so that it is difficult for the game ball to win the big prize winning opening 28 and it is difficult to acquire the game ball. For this reason, the player can actually win only the prize ball for 11R jackpot, although it is 16R jackpot. Note that the number of rounds may be changed as appropriate.

  That is, in another embodiment, the first big hit that performs the first predetermined number of round operations that can be obtained by closing the grand prize winning opening 28 and then closing, and the round operation (the round operation that can acquire the winning ball). ) May be prepared as a second jackpot for performing the second predetermined number of times less than the first predetermined number of times.

  In this embodiment, the “7” symbol is used as a decorative symbol indicating that it is a 16R jackpot, but in other embodiments, a symbol of another number is used as a decorative symbol indicating that it is a 16R jackpot. Alternatively, a design in which a predetermined image is written instead of a number may be used.

  In the present embodiment, when the jackpot is continuous, the third effect is executed during the n-th (specifically, the fifth) jackpot game. In other embodiments, the third effect may be executed when other specific conditions are satisfied. For example, the specific condition may be that the jackpot continues for m (m is a positive integer) times or more, or that a predetermined type of jackpot continues a predetermined number of times. Further, the specific condition may be that when the gaming machine 1 is in a normal state, a special winning lottery is made when a special symbol lottery is performed a predetermined number of times (for example, 1000 times) or more. Further, the specific condition may be that the special symbol lottery within a predetermined number of times (for example, 50 times) after the gaming machine 1 enters a predetermined gaming state (for example, the normal state) may be a big hit.

  As described above, the pachinko gaming machine of the present invention determines the result of the symbol lottery by changing and stopping the predetermined symbol according to the winning of the game ball in the predetermined winning area (start opening), A first special game in which a round operation is performed for a first predetermined number of times (16 times) in which a winning ball can be obtained by closing after a specific winning area (large winning opening 28) is opened when the symbol lottery is won with the first symbol. When the symbol lottery is won with the second symbol, the pachinko game that executes the second special game in which the round operation is performed a second predetermined number of times (11 times or substantially 11 times) smaller than the first predetermined number of times An effect of causing the effect display means to display a change of the effect symbol by starting the effect symbol (decoration symbol 37) corresponding to the predetermined symbol according to the change of the predetermined symbol. Symbol variation start means The first effect and the third effect corresponding to the first special game performed during the execution of the first special game, and the second effect corresponding to the second special game performed during the execution of the second special game. An effect storage means for storing an effect and an effect display (FIG. 6 (e) or FIG. 6 (f)) for informing the start of execution of the first special game are executed after the change of the effect symbol is started. Thereafter, in response to the start of the execution of the first special game, the first effect execution means for starting the execution of the first effect, and the start of the execution of the second special game after the change of the effect symbol is started. A second effect executing means for starting execution of the second effect in response to the start of execution of the second special game after executing the effect display (FIG. 5E or FIG. 5F) to be notified; The third effect execution means for starting the execution of the third effect and the change of the effect symbol start Then, after the effect display (FIG. 5 (e) or FIG. 5 (f)) notifying the start of execution of the second special game is executed, the second special game is executed according to the start of execution of the first special game. The execution of the effect is started, and the promotion effect executing means during the round for executing the promotion effect indicating that the first special game is executed after the round operation is performed a predetermined number of times, and a specific condition (the nth time In the case where it is determined that the specific condition is not satisfied by the determination means for determining whether or not the big win) is satisfied, and when the symbol lottery is won with the first symbol, In the case where it is determined that the specific condition is satisfied by the first effect control means for executing the effect by any one of the first effect execution means and the promotion effect execution means during the round, and the determination means, When the symbol design lottery is won with the first symbol, after the effect display (FIG. 6 (e) or FIG. 6 (f)) notifying the start of execution of the first special game is executed, the first special game And second effect control means for executing an effect by the third effect executing means in response to the start of execution.

  According to the above, when the specific condition is not satisfied, when the first symbol is won, an effect display for notifying the start of execution of the first special game is executed and the first effect is performed, or The second effect is executed after the effect display for notifying the execution start of the second special game is executed, and then the promotion effect and the first effect are executed. On the other hand, when a specific condition is satisfied, when winning with the first symbol, the third effect can be performed after the effect display for notifying the start of the execution of the first special game is executed. That is, when the specific condition is satisfied, the third effect can be performed without performing the promotion effect. Thereby, when the 3rd effect with low appearance frequency is performed, the 3rd effect can be performed without being interrupted on the way.

  In another configuration, the effect display for notifying the start of execution of the first special game is an effect display for confirming and displaying the effect symbol in the first effect symbol, and notifies the start of execution of the second special game. The effect display is an effect display for confirming and displaying the effect symbol as the second effect symbol.

  According to the above, since the start of execution of the first or second special game is notified by the effect design, for example, the execution of the first or second special game by the opening effect (FIGS. 5 (f) and 6 (f)), for example. There is no need to notify the start.

  In another configuration, the specific condition is that a game advantageous for a player including the first special game and the second special game is continuously performed a predetermined number of times.

  According to the above, for example, in the case where the jackpot game is continuously performed a predetermined number of times, when winning with the first symbol, the third effect can be performed after the final display with the first symbol.

  In another configuration, the second effect symbol is displayed in a manner in which the player recognizes that the variation of the effect symbol is stopped after the variation of the effect symbol is started, and the second effect symbol is displayed after a predetermined time has passed. After the two effect symbols are switched to the first effect symbol to be confirmed and displayed, in response to the start of the execution of the first special game, the pre-round promotion effect executing means for starting the execution of the effect according to the first special game The first effect control means executes the first effect when the symbol lottery is won with the first symbol when the determination unit determines that the specific condition is not satisfied.
