Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a gaming machine (rotational gaming machine, slot machine) having a plurality of reels having symbols arranged on an outer peripheral surface is known. This type of gaming machine gives a certain game value to game media such as medals and pachinko balls, and performs a game for acquiring such game media. In addition, this type of gaming machine has an internal lottery triggered by the player's rotation start operation and starts rotating a plurality of reels, and the player's stop operation triggers an aspect according to the result of the internal lottery. The control is performed to stop a plurality of reels. The game result is determined by the symbol combination displayed on the activated line in a state where the plurality of reels are stopped, and medals are paid out according to the game result.

  By the way, in recent years, a control method in which a reel stop position is uniquely determined with respect to a combination of an internal lottery result for determining whether or not a combination is appropriate and a mode of a reel stop operation has become mainstream (Patent Document 1). reference). This control method can simplify the process of determining the reel stop position, while winning as much as possible the winning combination in the internal lottery, and reliably avoiding the winning combination in the internal lottery. Since it is necessary to determine the stop position of the reel by the control algorithm, it has been difficult to perform highly controllable control in which whether or not the winning combination related to the winning combination is determined according to the stop order of the reels.

  Therefore, in the internal lottery, the first combination is won in combination with a plurality of types of second combinations, and the winning mode of the first combination is set to a plurality of types, so that the reel stop order corresponds to the first mode of winning. In the case of a specific order, the first combination wins regardless of the reel stop timing, and when the reel stop order is not a specific order, the reel stop timing is avoided while avoiding the first combination winning. Accordingly, there is a control method for adjusting the winning rate of the winning combination depending on whether or not the winning of the first winning combination is supported by the effect while switching the reel stop control so that the second winning combination may be won or not. It has been proposed (see Patent Document 2).

  However, in this type of conventional gaming machine, the payout of the first role is higher than the payout of the second role in order to control the winning and avoidance of the first role and the second role according to the order of the stop operation. In this way, the payout of each winning combination is set, and the number of winning combinations when the symbols constituting the winning combination form of the second winning combination are displayed on the active line is the symbol constituting the winning combination form of the first winning combination. In accordance with the number of medals to be paid out based on the payout according to the winning mode of the first combination and the order of the stop operation. Since the process of selecting the stop position of the reel and the process of selecting the stop position of the reel according to the number of winning combinations can be switched, the first and second combinations overlap in the internal lottery. Process to select the reel stop position in the winning game The amount of data required had increased.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and is to simplify the process of selecting a reel stop position in a game in which a first combination and a second combination are won in an internal lottery.

  (1) The present invention determines whether or not a winning combination exists so that there may be a case where a plurality of reels having symbols arranged on the outer peripheral surface and a plurality of first and second winning combinations are won. An internal lottery means for performing an internal lottery, and rotating the plurality of reels for each game, and a rotating reel corresponding to the stop operation triggered by the stop operation, from a plurality of stop positions existing within a predetermined pull-in range A stop position is selected in accordance with the result of the internal lottery, and the rotating reel corresponding to the stop operation is stopped at the selected stop position, and a plurality of first roles and a plurality of second roles are overlapped. In the winning game, when the stop operation is performed in a specific order, the rotating reel is stopped so that any one of the plurality of first roles wins regardless of the timing of the stop operation. Along a certain order A reel control means for controlling to stop the rotating reel so that one of a plurality of second roles may win or not win depending on the timing of the stop operation, A gaming machine having a winning determination means for determining that a winning combination has been won based on the fact that a combination of symbols indicating a winning pattern predetermined for each winning combination is displayed on the active line with the reels stopped. In the game where a plurality of first roles and a plurality of second roles are won in duplicate, the reel control means determines the timing of the stop operation when the reel corresponding to the stop operation performed first is a specific reel. Regardless of the first stop position in which the symbols constituting the plurality of first winning combinations are displayed at the display positions on the effective line, the symbols constituting the plurality of second winning combinations are the effective lines. Upper display position The reel stop position corresponding to the first stop operation based on the fact that the number of winning combinations that can be won by the symbols displayed at the display position on the active line is larger than the displayed second stop position. When the first stop position is selected and the reel corresponding to the first stop operation performed is not a specific reel, the symbols constituting the plurality of second winning combinations are valid lines regardless of the timing of the stop operation. The third stop position displayed at the upper display position is more effective than the fourth stop position at which the symbols constituting the winning form of any of the plurality of first roles are displayed at the display position on the active line. The third stop position is selected as the reel stop position corresponding to the first stop operation based on the fact that the number of winning combinations can be increased by the symbols displayed at the display position on the line. The present invention relates to a characteristic gaming machine.

  In the present invention, regardless of whether or not the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is a specific reel, the first stop operation is performed by selecting the stop position according to the number of winning combinations. Depending on whether or not the reel corresponding to is a specific reel, the symbol constituting the first winning combination or the symbol constituting the second winning combination is displayed at the display position on the active line. The reel corresponding to the stop operation performed first can be stopped. Thus, according to the present invention, when the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is a specific reel, one of the plurality of first roles wins regardless of the timing of the stop operation. When the reel corresponding to the stop operation to be performed is not a specific reel, depending on the timing of the stop operation, one of a plurality of second combinations may or may not win.

  (2) In the gaming machine of the present invention, in the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of each of the plurality of first roles, it is displayed on the active line as a symbol related to the specific reel together with the symbols constituting the other first role winning pattern. A symbol that is not displayed on the active line may be set as a symbol related to a reel other than the specific reel, together with a symbol indicating the other first winning combination.

  In this way, in a game in which a plurality of first combinations and a plurality of second combinations are won, when the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is a specific reel, the plurality of first combinations If there is a first stop position where the symbols constituting the winning pattern are displayed at the display position on the active line, and the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is not a specific reel, one of a plurality of first roles There may be a fourth stop position where the symbols constituting the winning form are displayed at the display position on the active line. That is, in this way, depending on whether or not the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is a specific reel, the symbols constituting the winning combination of the first combination are displayed at the display position on the active line. It is possible to change the number of winning combinations at the stop position.

  (3) In the gaming machine of the present invention, each of the plurality of reels is configured with each of the plurality of second winning combinations with the symbols forming each of the plurality of first winning combinations. Each symbol may be arranged so that the symbol is not displayed at the display position on the effective line.

  In this way, in a game in which a plurality of first roles and a plurality of second roles are won in duplicate, when the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the specific reel, the stop operation performed first When the first stop position is selected as the stop position of the reel corresponding to, the second winning combination can be avoided, and when the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is not a specific reel, The winning of the first combination can be avoided by selecting the third stop position as the reel stop position corresponding to the stop operation.

  FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram of the gaming machine of the present embodiment.

  The gaming machine of this embodiment is controlled by a game control means (control board) 100. The game control means 100 receives input signals from input means such as the medal insertion switch 210, the bet switch 220, the start switch 230, the stop switch 240, etc., and performs various calculations for executing the game, and based on the calculation results. The operation control of the output means such as the reel unit 310, the hopper unit 320, the display device 330, the acoustic device 340 is performed. The functions of the game control means 100 are stored in advance in various processors (CPU, DSP, etc.), ASIC (gate array, etc.), ROM (an example of an information storage medium), or hardware such as RAM, ROM, etc. It is realized by software consisting of a given program.

  The game control means 100 includes an insertion acceptance means 105, a random number generation means 110, an internal lottery means 120, a reel control means 130, a winning determination means 140, a payout control means 150, a replay processing means 160, a game state transition control means 170, a replay. Probability changing means 175, effect control means 180, and storage means 190 are included.

  The insertion accepting means 105 accepts the insertion of medals for each game, and permits the game start operation to the start lever (game start operation means) SL based on the insertion of three medals corresponding to the prescribed number of insertions. Perform the process. In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the pressing operation of the start lever SL is an opportunity to start the rotation of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 and an opportunity to execute the internal lottery.

  Further, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when a medal is inserted into the medal insertion slot MI, the insertion accepting unit 105 has a prescribed insertion number 3 according to the gaming state as the medal insertion switch 210 is activated. The inserted medals are set to the inserted state up to the maximum number. When medals exceeding the prescribed number of medals are inserted into the medal slot MI, medals exceeding the three medals are stored as credit medals in a credit storage area (not shown) of the main memory 190. The Further, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when the bet button B0 is pressed in a state where medals are credited to the gaming machine, the betting switch 220 is activated, so that the loading accepting means 105 has a predetermined number of throwing. The credited medals are set to the inserted state up to a certain number of three.

  The random number generation means 110 is a means for generating random numbers for lottery. The random value can be generated based on, for example, a count value of an increment counter (a counter that counts numerical values so as to circulate a predetermined count range). In this embodiment, the “random number value” is not only a value that is randomly generated in a mathematical sense, but even if the generation itself is regular, the acquisition timing and the like are irregular. Includes a value that can function as a random number.

  The internal lottery means 120 is a means for performing an internal lottery for determining whether or not a winning combination is made based on a start signal from a start switch 230 that is operated by a player pressing a start lever (rotation start operation means) SL. A lottery table selection process, a random number determination process, a lottery flag setting process, and the like are performed.

  In the lottery table selection process, it is determined which internal lottery table is used for the internal lottery table among the plurality of internal lottery tables stored in the internal lottery table storage unit 1911 of the storage unit 190. In the gaming machine of this embodiment, the internal lottery table storage means 1911 stores four types of internal lottery tables A to D as shown in FIG. In each internal lottery table, for each of a plurality of random numbers (for example, 65536 random numbers from 0 to 65535), various roles such as replay, small role, and big bonus (BB, special role) are provided. It is associated.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the correct combination (first combination), correct control combination 1 to correct control combination 6 (first combination), incorrect combination 1 to incorrect combination 8 (a plurality of second combinations) as small combinations. ) And chance chances are prepared, and the small role group 1 to the small role group 6 in the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D are the correct answer role and the correct answer control role 1 to the correct answer control role determined for each group It shows that any two types of 6 and any four types of fraud 1 to fraud 8 are duplicated and won.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, correct combination, correct control combination 1, correct control combination 2, incorrect combination 1 to incorrect combination 4 are associated with the same random number as the small combination group 1, Role, correct answer control role 1, correct answer control role 2, incorrect answer role 5 to incorrect answer role 8 are associated with the same random number as small role group 2, and correct answer role, correct answer control role 3, correct answer control role 4, Correct answer 1 to incorrect answer 4 are associated with the same random number as small role group 3, and correct answer, correct answer control 3, correct answer control 4, incorrect answer 5 to incorrect answer 8 are small role group 4. Are associated with the same random number, and the correct answer, correct answer control 5, correct answer control 6, incorrect answer 1 to incorrect answer 4 are associated with the same random number as the small role group 5, Correct answer control 5, correct answer control 6, incorrect answer 5 to incorrect answer 8 are assigned to the same random number as small role group 6. It is attached.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the normal state, the bonus establishment state, and the bonus state can be set as the gaming state, and the replay lottery state includes the replay no lottery state, the replay low probability state, and the replay high probability. The state can be set, and in the lottery table selection process, one of the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D is selected as an internal lottery table to be used in the internal lottery according to the gaming state and the replay lottery state. .

  In the random number determination process, a random value (lottery random number) is acquired from the random number generator 110 for each game based on the start signal from the start switch 230, and the internal lottery table storage unit 1911 of the storage unit 190 for the acquired random number value. It is determined whether or not the winning combination is won with reference to the internal lottery table stored in the table.

  In the lottery flag setting process, the lottery flag corresponding to the winning combination determined to be won based on the result of the random number determination process is changed from the non-winning state (first flag state, off state) to the winning state (second flag state). , ON state). In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when two or more types of winning combinations are won, a lottery flag corresponding to each of the two or more types of winning winning combinations is set to a winning state. The lottery flag setting information is stored in the lottery flag storage unit 1912 of the storage unit 190.

  In addition, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, a lottery flag (carry-over possible flag) that can carry on the winning state for the next game until winning, and a non-winning state without carrying the winning state on the next game regardless of winning. A lottery flag (a carry-over impossible flag) that is reset to the winning state is prepared. As a combination with which the former carry-over possible flag is associated, there is a big bonus (BB), and other combinations (for example, small combination, replay) are associated with the latter carry-over impossible flag. That is, in the lottery flag setting process, when the big bonus (BB) is won by internal lottery, the winning state of the lottery flag of the won big bonus (BB) is carried over until the won big bonus (BB) wins. At this time, the internal lottery means 120 performs an internal lottery for determining whether or not a role (small role and replay) other than the big bonus (BB) is won even in a game in which the winning state of the big bonus (BB) lottery flag is carried over. Is going. That is, in the lottery flag setting process, in a game in which the winning state of the lottery flag of the big bonus (BB) is carried over, if a role other than the big bonus (BB) is won in the internal lottery, the big that has already been won A lottery flag corresponding to two or more types of combinations including a bonus (BB) lottery flag and a lottery flag other than the big bonus (BB) won in the internal lottery is set to a winning state.

  The reel control means 130 controls the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 based on a start signal from a start switch 230 that is actuated by a player pressing a start lever (rotation start operation means) SL (rotation start operation). Corresponding to a reel that is rotating in a state in which the rotational speed of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 reaches a predetermined speed (about 80 rpm: a rotational speed that is about 80 revolutions per minute). Control is performed to permit the pressing operation (stop operation) of the stop buttons B1 to B3, and the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 that are rotationally driven by the step motor are set to the lottery flag setting state (result of the internal lottery). Control to stop accordingly.

  Then, the reel controller 130 allows the player to press the stop buttons B1 to B3 when the player presses the stop buttons B1 to B3 in a state where the pressing operations (stopping operations) on the stop buttons (stop operation means) B1 to B3 are permitted (validated). When 240 is activated, the supply of drive pulses (motor drive signal) to the step motor of the reel unit 310 is stopped based on the reel stop signal from the stop switch 240, whereby the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. Control to stop each reel.

  That is, the reel controller 130 determines the stop position of the reel corresponding to the pressed button of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 each time the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed. The reel is stopped at the stop position. In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, pressing the stop button B1 corresponds to the stop operation of the first reel R1, and pressing the stop button B2 corresponds to the stop operation of the second reel R2, and the stop button B3 Pressing corresponds to a stop operation of the third reel R3. That is, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is changed, the stopping order of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 is changed.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 stop the rotating reel corresponding to the pressed stop button within 190 ms from the time when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed. Control state is set. That is, the stop position of each rotating reel is determined within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames (predetermined pull-in range) from the time when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed until each reel R1 to R3 stops. Is done. The reel control means 130 displays the symbol corresponding to the winning combination in the internal lottery on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating reel corresponding to the stop button that has been pressed among the stop buttons B1 to B3. When the button is pressed, the symbol corresponding to the winning combination is displayed at the display position on the active line when it is located within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames with respect to the display position on the active line. In this way, control is performed to stop the rotating reel corresponding to the stop button that has been pressed.

  More specifically, the reel control means 130 is a process for obtaining a stop position of a rotating reel by logic calculation (logic calculation process), and a stop control table stored in the stop control table storage means 1913 of the storage means 190. And a process of determining the stop position of the rotating reel (table reference process).

  First, in the logic calculation process, 0 to 4 frames from the pressing detection position that is the position of the reel at the time of operation of the stop switch 240 (when the pressing operation of the stop button is detected) according to the priority order data determined for each combination. Priorities are obtained for the stop position candidates for five frames existing in the range. Then, the stop position candidate with the highest priority among the priorities of the respective stop position candidates is determined as the actual stop position. However, in logic calculation processing, the same priority may be obtained for a plurality of stop position candidates depending on the result of the internal lottery, the pressed detection position, etc., and there are a plurality of stop position candidates with the highest priority. In such a case, the actual stop position is determined by a table reference process described later.

  In particular, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the order of “replay> small role (correct answer, correct answer control 1 to correct answer control 6, incorrect answer 1 to incorrect answer 8, chance role)> big bonus (BB)”. In the logic operation process, when the lottery flags relating to two or more types of combinations are set to the internal winning state, the priority is low according to the priority sequence associated with each combination. The priority is determined so that the priority of the stop position candidate including the symbol constituting the winning combination of the winning combination with the higher priority is higher than the candidate of the stop position including the symbol constituting the winning combination of the combination.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, when multiple types of small roles are won in the internal lottery, the priority order determined for each role is the same among the multiple types of small roles. In the logic calculation process for obtaining the stop position related to at least the first reel among the first reel R1 to the third reel R3, the priority is obtained so that there are a plurality of candidates for the highest priority stop position. Therefore, in the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the logic operation processing when a plurality of types of small roles are won in the internal lottery is stopped according to the number of winning combinations that can be won by the symbols displayed at the display position on the active line. Priorities for position candidates are determined. In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the priority of the stop position candidate that increases the number of winning combinations is higher, and the same priority is given to a plurality of stop position candidates that have the same number of winning combinations. Desired.

  In the logic calculation process, so-called pull-in process and kick-out process are performed as processes for obtaining candidate reel stop positions. The pull-in process is a process of obtaining reel stop position candidates so that a winning combination whose lottery flag is set to the winning state can be won as much as possible. On the other hand, the kicking process is a process of obtaining reel stop position candidates so that a combination whose lottery flag is set to a non-winning state cannot be won. In this way, the reel control means 130 can stop the symbol of the winning combination with the lottery flag set in the winning state while winning the symbol of the winning combination with the lottery flag set in the non-winning state. Logic calculation processing is performed to obtain a candidate stop position of the reel so as not to stop.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the reel unit 310 includes a reel index 315 made of a photosensor, and the reel control means 130 is based on a reference position signal detected by the reel index 315 every time the reel makes one revolution. Thus, the current rotation state of the reel can be monitored by obtaining the rotation angle (the number of rotation steps of the rotation axis of the step motor) from the reel reference position (the frame detected by the reel index). ing. That is, the reel control unit 130 can obtain the position of the reel when the stop switch 240 is operated by obtaining the rotation angle from the reference position of the reel.

  In the table reference process, when a plurality of stop position candidates with the highest priority are obtained as a result of the logic operation process, the stop control table storage means of the storage means 190 indicates which position is set as the stop position. This is determined with reference to the stop control table stored in 1913.

  As described above, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the reel control means 130 performs the above-described logic operation processing in a game in which a plurality of types of small roles belonging to any one of the small role group 1 to the small role group 6 are won. And the control to stop the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 so that the correct combination is won regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3 by determining the stop position by the table reference process (first stop control). And the timing of pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 for any of the four types of illegal answering belonging to the winning small group while avoiding winning the correct winning combination is the timing according to the winning small group The control to stop the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 (second stop control) so as to win based on the stop button B1 to B It is switched according to the pressing order.

  The winning determination means 140 performs a process of determining whether or not a winning combination has been won based on the stop mode of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. Specifically, while referring to the winning determination table stored in the winning determination table storage unit 1914 of the storage unit 190, when all of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are stopped, on the effective lines L1 to L4. It is determined whether or not the symbol combination displayed in is a winning combination of a predetermined combination.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the red 7 symbol “red 7”, the black 7 symbol “black 7”, the outer peripheral surfaces of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 constituting the reel unit 310, A bell symbol “BL”, a watermelon symbol A “WMA”, a watermelon symbol B “WMB”, a replay symbol “RP”, a dummy symbol 1 “DUM1”, and a dummy symbol 2 “DUM2” are arranged. Then, depending on the symbol combinations displayed on the effective lines L1 to L4 in a state where each reel is stopped, as shown in FIG. 7, a big bonus (BB), a replay, a correct combination, a correct control combination 1 to a correct control combination 6, A winning determination table is prepared so that it can be determined whether or not the winning of unauthorized answer 1 to illegal answer 8 is won. Note that “ANY” in the symbol combination indicating the winning combination of the chance combination shown in FIG. 7 indicates that any symbol arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the reel may be used.

  That is, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, when the symbol combination “red 7, red 7, red 7” is displayed on the active line, it is determined that the big bonus (BB) has been won, and the effective When the symbol combination “RP / RP / RP” is displayed on the line, it is determined that the replay has won, and when the symbol combination “BL / BL / BL” is displayed on the active line, the bell Is determined to have won, and when the symbol combination “BL / Red 7 / Red 7” is displayed on the active line, it is determined that the correct control combination 1 has won, and “BL / Black 7” is displayed on the active line.・ When the symbol combination “Black 7” is displayed, it is determined that the correct answer control combination 2 has won, and when the symbol combination “Red 7, BL, Red 7” is displayed on the active line, the correct answer control is performed. It is determined that role 3 has won, and “Black 7 BL” appears on the active line. When the symbol combination “black 7” is displayed, it is determined that the correct answer control role 4 has won, and when the symbol combination “red 7, red 7, BL” is displayed on the active line, the correct answer control role 5 is determined to have won, and if the symbol combination “black 7, black 7, BL” is displayed on the active line, it is determined that the correct answer control 6 has won, and “WMA / WMA” is displayed on the active line. -When the symbol combination of "WMA" is displayed, it is determined that the unauthorized answerer 1 has won, and when the symbol combination of "WMB / WMA / WMB" is displayed on the active line, When it is determined that the winning combination is made and the symbol combination “WMA / WMB / WMA” is displayed on the active line, it is determined that the unauthorized answerer 3 has won the winning combination, and “WMB / WMB / WMB” is displayed on the active line. Unauthorized removal when a symbol combination is displayed Is determined to have won, and if the symbol combination “WMA / WMA / WMB” is displayed on the active line, it is determined that the illegal answer 5 has been won, and “WMB / WMA / WMA” is displayed on the active line. When the symbol combination is displayed, it is determined that the unauthorized answerer 6 has won, and when the symbol combination “WMA / WMB / WMB” is displayed on the active line, the incorrect answerer 7 has won. If the symbol combination “WMB / WMB / WMA” is displayed on the active line, it is determined that the illegal answerer 8 has won, and the symbol combination “ANY / DUM1 / ANY” is displayed on the active line. When displayed, it is determined that the chance combination has won.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the winning process is executed based on the determination result of the winning determination means 140. As a process at the time of winning, for example, when a small combination (correct answer combination, correct control combination 1 to correct control combination 6, incorrect answer combination 1 to incorrect answer combination 8, chance combination) wins a prize, When the payout control process is performed and the replay is won, the replay process means 160 performs the replay process, and when the big bonus (BB) is won, the game state is shifted by the game state transition control means 170. Migration control processing is performed.

  The payout control means 150 performs payout control processing relating to the payout of medals according to the game result. Specifically, when a small combination wins, the number of medals to be paid out in the game is determined based on a predetermined payout for each combination, and the medals corresponding to the determined number of payouts are assigned to the hopper unit 320 ( The payout device is controlled to pay out. When a plurality of types of small combinations wins, the total number of medals paid out based on the payout of each winning small combination is obtained as the number of medals paid out in the game.

  Further, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when one type of small role is won in a plurality of active lines, the payout control means 150 determines the effective line that the small role has won in the payout of the winning small role. The result of multiplying the number is determined as the number of medals to be paid out in the game. Further, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, an upper limit is set on the number of medals paid out in one game, and specifically, nine is the upper limit on the number of medals paid out. Then, when the number of medals to be paid out for winning a small role is 9 or more, the payout control means 150 obtains the number of medals paid out in the game as 9 corresponding to the upper limit.

  The hopper unit 320 performs an operation of paying out medals of the payout number instructed by the payout control means 150. The hopper unit 320 is provided with a payout medal detection switch 325 that operates every time a single medal is paid out. It is configured to be able to manage the number of medals paid out.

  If credits (internal storage) of medals are permitted, instead of actually paying out medals by the hopper unit 320, the number of credits stored in a credit storage area (not shown) of the storage unit 190 (not shown) A credit addition process for adding the number of payouts to the number of credited medals is performed to virtually pay out medals. Also, when a replay or big bonus (BB) is won as a result of the game, as shown in FIG. 7, no payout is set for the replay and big bonus (BB). Is not performed, but processing (zero-sheet processing) is performed in which it is formally paid out zero medals.

  When the replay is won, the replay processing means 160 performs a replay process (regame process) for setting the same preparation state as the previous game without requiring insertion of medals owned by the player for the next game. That is, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when a replay is won, an automatic insertion is performed in which the same number of medals as the previous game are automatically inserted without using the player's own medals (including credit medals). Processing is performed, and the next game start operation (press operation of the start lever SL by the player) is waited with the same winning determination line as that of the previous game being validated.

  The gaming state transition control means 170 performs a gaming state transition control process for transitioning the gaming state between the normal state, the bonus establishment state, and the bonus state based on the establishment of a predetermined transition condition. As the game condition transition condition, one condition may be defined, or a plurality of conditions may be defined. In the case where a plurality of conditions are determined, the gaming state is determined based on the fact that one of the plurality of predetermined conditions is satisfied or all of the plurality of predetermined conditions are satisfied. It is possible to shift to another gaming state.

  The normal state is a game state corresponding to the initial state among a plurality of types of game states, and a transition from the normal state to the bonus establishment state is possible. Further, in the normal state, an internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table A or the internal lottery table B in which the big bonus (BB) is set as a lottery object among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. Is called.

  In the gaming machine of this embodiment, an internal lottery table that is referred to in the internal lottery in the normal state is selected according to the lottery state of replay. Specifically, when the replay lottery state is the low replay probability state in the normal state, the internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table A, and the replay lottery state is the replay high probability state in the normal state. In some cases, the internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table B having a higher replay win probability than the internal lottery table A.

  The bonus establishment state is a gaming state that shifts when the big bonus (BB) is won in the internal lottery. In the bonus establishment state, the replay lottery state is set to a replay low probability state, and among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. An internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table C in which (BB) is excluded from the lottery targets.

  In the bonus establishment state, the lottery flag corresponding to the big bonus (BB) is maintained in the winning state until the big bonus (BB) wins, and the symbol combination “red 7 / red 7” indicating the winning form of the big bonus (BB) is maintained. When “Red 7” is displayed on the active line, the game state transition control means 170 performs control to shift the game state from the bonus establishment state to the bonus state.

  The bonus state is a gaming state in which a transition is made when the symbol combination “red 7, red 7, red 7” indicating the big bonus (BB) winning pattern is displayed on the active line in the bonus establishment state. In the bonus state, the replay lottery state is set to the non-replay lottery state, and among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table D shown in FIG. 3, the big bonus (BB) and the replay are excluded from the internal lottery targets. An internal lottery is performed with reference to the internal lottery table D in which the winning probability of the combination is set higher than the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table C. That is, in the bonus state, the game state is more advantageous to the player than the normal state or the bonus establishment state in that the small role is won more frequently than the other game states.

  Further, in the bonus state, it is determined whether or not the end condition is satisfied based on the total number of medals paid out by the bonus game, and a predetermined payout upper limit number (for example, 300) is determined according to the type of bonus won. When medals exceeding are paid out, the gaming state transition control means 170 performs control to end the bonus state and return the gaming state to the normal state.

  The replay probability changing means 175 performs control to change the winning probability of replay in the internal lottery under a predetermined condition. In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the replay lottery state includes a replay no lottery state in which replay is excluded from the internal lottery target, a replay low probability state in which the replay winning probability is set to about 1 / 7.3, and A plurality of lottery states, ie, a replay high probability state in which the winning probability of replay is set to about 1 / 1.5, can be set. As shown in FIG. By changing the state, the winning probability of replay in the internal lottery is changed.

  More specifically, the replay probability variation means 175 sets the replay lottery state to the replay low probability state as the initial state, and sets the replay lottery state to the replay no lottery based on the winning of the big bonus (BB). The replay lottery state is set to the replay high probability state when the bonus state ends.

  Further, the replay probability changing means 175 corresponds to a predetermined number of games (for example, 200 times) in the RT end determination counter 1915 of the storage means 190 when the replay lottery state is set to the replay high probability state. Decrement update that writes a value to be played (for example, 200) and subtracts a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of games for one time from the stored value of the RT end determination counter 1915 every time a game in the replay high probability state is performed I do. When the stored value of the RT end determination counter 1915 reaches a threshold value (for example, 0), the replay lottery state is returned to the replay low probability state.

  The replay probability changing means 175 does not reach the threshold value of the RT end determination counter 1915 when the big bonus (BB) is won in a game in which the replay lottery state is set to the replay high probability state. However, when the replay lottery state is changed to the replay low probability state, and the replay lottery state is set to the replay low probability state, the stored value of the RT end determination counter 1915 is an initial value (for example, 0). ).

  The effect control means 180 uses the display effect performed using the display device 330 (an example of the effect device) or the audio device 340 (an example of the effect device) based on the effect data stored in the effect data storage means 1921. Control related to the sound production to be performed. For example, a lamp or LED is turned on or blinked according to the occurrence of a gaming event such as insertion of a medal, an operation on a bet button B0, a start lever SL, stop buttons B1 to B3, or a change in a gaming state, or a display on a liquid crystal display LCD By changing the content or outputting sound from the speaker, the game is excited or the execution control of the effect for assisting the game is performed.

  Particularly in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the effect control means 180 changes the effect state among a plurality of kinds of effect states, and the AT flag is stored in the effect flag storage means 1922 under predetermined conditions at the end of the bonus state. By setting, the production state is set to the assist time state (AT state: special production state), the end condition of the AT state is determined based on the fluctuation of the replay lottery state, and the AT state end condition is established Control to end the AT state is performed by clearing the AT flag.

  More specifically, the effect control means 180 performs AT lottery (predetermined effect lottery) when the big bonus (BB) is won in the internal lottery. In the AT lottery, any of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is acquired, and the acquired random number value is compared with the AT lottery table stored in the effect lottery table storage unit 1923, and according to the comparison result. It is determined whether or not the AT lottery is won. In the AT lottery table stored in the effect lottery table storage means 1923, each of the 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is associated with either winning or losing, and obtained by AT lottery. If the random value is associated with winning in the AT lottery table, it is determined that the AT lottery has been won. The AT lottery may be performed between the time of winning the big bonus (BB) and the end of the bonus state. In particular, if the AT lottery is performed at the end of the bonus state, a process for confirming whether or not the AT lottery has been won (a process for setting an AT reservation flag, which will be described later, and a process for checking whether or not an AT reservation flag is set) ) Can be omitted.

  The effect control means 180 determines whether or not the AT reservation flag is set in the effect flag storage means 1922 at the end of the bonus state. If the AT reservation flag is set, the AT reservation flag is set. In addition to clearing, the AT flag is set in the effect flag storage means 1922 to set the effect state to the AT state. Then, the effect control means 180 determines that the end condition for the AT state is satisfied when the replay lottery state changes from the replay high probability state to the replay low probability state, and clears the AT flag to change the AT state. Terminate.

  In addition, the effect control means 180 displays a special effect that assists the winning of the winning combination in the game in which a predetermined combination of a plurality of types is won when the effect state is set to the AT state. Control to be executed by the device 340 is performed.

  More specifically, when the plurality of types of small roles belonging to any of the small role group 1 to the small role group 6 are won in the internal lottery in the game in which the performance state is set to the AT state, Control is performed to cause the display device 330 and the audio device 340 to execute a special effect that informs the pressing order of the stop button that can win the correct combination among a plurality of types of small combinations belonging to the selected small combination group. As the special effects, various effects can be adopted. For example, an effect image informing the type of the stop button to be pressed first for winning the correct combination is displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD, or the correct combination is displayed. To turn on the lamp that informs the type of stop button that should be pressed first to win a prize, or to output the sound that informs the type of stop button that should be pressed first to win the correct answer from the speaker Can do.

  Therefore, in the AT game section (special game section) in which the performance state is set to the AT state, a special performance is performed, so that the winning rate of the winning combination is increased and the number of medals held by the player is likely to increase. It is a game section that is advantageous to the player.

Note that the functional block configuration of the present embodiment can also be applied to a computer system (including a game system). In these systems, the function is realized by downloading a program that causes the computer to function as the game control means 100 of the present embodiment from an information storage medium such as a CD or DVD or a Web server on the Internet via a network. be able to. In the above computer system, the medal insertion switch 210, the bet switch 220, the start switch 230, the stop switch 240 and the like virtually function their functions with respect to operation means such as a keyboard, a pointing device (mouse, etc.), or a controller. This can be realized by assigning. In the above computer system, the reel unit 310, the hopper unit 320, and the like are not indispensable constituent elements. These device units virtually control their functions by controlling images displayed on the display (display device 330). Can be realized.

2. Processing of this Embodiment Hereinafter, processing performed in the gaming machine of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 to 10.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a control process for each game in the gaming machine of the present embodiment.

  First, insertion acceptance processing for accepting insertion of medals necessary for playing a game is performed (step S100). In the insertion acceptance process, the player inserts a medal into the medal insertion slot MI to set the inserted medal to the inserted state, and the player presses the bet button B0 to activate the bet switch 220 to play the game in advance. Set the medal credited in the aircraft to the inserted state. Further, when a replay is won in the previous game, the medals having the same number of insertions as the previous game are automatically set to the inserted state on the gaming machine side without requiring the medal held by the player. When the insertion of a predetermined number (for example, three) of medals set as the game start condition is completed (Y in Step S101), the operation of waiting for the start lever SL is waited (Step S102).

  When the player depresses the start lever SL and the start switch 230 is actuated (Y in step S102), an internal lottery is performed (step S103), and the step motor that drives the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 is performed. The supply of drive pulses is started, and the rotation of each reel is started (step S104). In the internal lottery, the winning combination is determined by comparing the random value acquired with the operation of the start switch 230 with the lottery table selected according to the gaming state, and the winning combination (winning combination) flag is set. Set to internal winning status.

  In particular, in the present embodiment, the small role group 1 to the small role group 6 are set as the lottery targets of the internal lottery in the normal state and the bonus establishment state, and the random number values acquired in the internal lottery are stored in the small lottery table. If it is associated with a group, among the correct answer combination, correct control combination 1-correct control combination 6, incorrect answer combination 1-incorrect answer combination 8, multiple types of small combinations corresponding to the small combination group are won. It is like that.

  When the rotation speed of each reel reaches a predetermined speed (Y in step S105), the operation for the stop buttons B1 to B3 is validated (step S106), and the rotating reel is stopped in response to the pressing operation of the stop button. The reel stop control to be performed is performed (step S107). In particular, in the present embodiment, reel stop control is performed according to the flowchart shown in FIG.

  First, when the player presses the stop button (Y in step S200), the operation for the pressed stop button is invalidated (step S201), and the stop position of the rotating reel corresponding to the pressed stop button is determined. The process which performs is performed (step S202-step S205).

  Specifically, priority is given to each of the stop position candidates for a total of 5 frames in the range of 0 frame to 4 frames from the pressed detection position indicating the position of the rotating reel at the time when the stop button is pressed by logic calculation processing. Find the degree. In such a logic calculation process, the candidate for the stop position where the symbol corresponding to the winning combination is displayed at the display position on the active line is selected from the candidate for the stop position where the symbol corresponding to the winning combination is not displayed at the display position on the effective line. Also, the priority for each of the stop position candidates is obtained so that the priority is higher. Also, in the logic calculation process, when multiple types of winning combinations are won by internal lottery, symbols corresponding to the winning combination with high priority are displayed at the display position on the active line according to the priority order determined for each winning combination. Each stop position candidate has a higher priority than a stop position candidate in which a symbol corresponding to a winning combination with a lower priority is displayed at the display position on the active line. Find the degree.

  Here, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, in a game in which a plurality of types of small roles belonging to any one of the small role group 1 to the small role group 6 are duplicated in the internal lottery, the reel is stopped at the first. In the logic calculation process for determining the stop position related to, the priority order determined for each combination is the same among the multiple types of small combinations that are the winning combination, so depending on the pattern displayed at the display position on the effective line The priority for the stop position candidate is determined according to the number of winning combinations that can be won. In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the priority of the stop position where the number of winning combinations that can win a prize increases, and the priority is the same for a plurality of stop position candidates where the number of winning combinations that can win a prize is equal. A degree is required.

  If the result of the logic operation is one stop position candidate with the highest priority (Y in step S203), the stop position candidate with the highest priority obtained by the logic operation is rotated. The stop position of the inner reel is determined (step S204).

  On the other hand, if a plurality of stop position candidates with the highest priority are found as a result of the logic operation (N in step S203), the stop position is determined with reference to the stop control table (step S205).

  Then, when the stop position is determined by referring to the logic calculation or the stop control table, the supply of the drive pulse to the stepping motor that rotationally drives the rotating reel corresponding to the pressed stop button is stopped. To stop the reel (step 206).

  When all the reels stop (Y in step S207), as shown in FIG. 9, a winning determination process is performed based on the stopped state of each reel (step S108). In the present embodiment, the presence / absence of a winning combination is determined based on whether or not a symbol combination indicating a winning pattern of a winning combination is displayed on the winning determination line L. If the winning combination is determined as a result of the winning determination (Y in step S108), the winning process corresponding to the winning combination is performed, and the series of processes is terminated (step S109).

3. Control Methods of the Present Embodiment Hereinafter, various control methods employed in the gaming machine of the present embodiment will be specifically described with reference to FIGS. 4, 7, and 11.

  First, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, in a specific game, when the stop operation is performed in a specific order, the correct answer combination is won regardless of the timing of the stop operation while avoiding the incorrect answer combination winning, If the stop operation is not performed in a specific order, the incorrect answer is based on the timing of the stop operation being the timing corresponding to the incorrect answer winning in the internal lottery while avoiding winning the correct answer Control to win the role. Therefore, in this embodiment, while performing an internal lottery so that the correct answer combination and the incorrect answer combination may be won, the outer peripheral surface of each of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 has a correct answer combination. The stop position where the symbols that make up the winning pattern are displayed at the display position on the active line, and the symbols that make up one of multiple types of incorrect answering are displayed alternatively at the displaying position on the effective line The symbols are arranged so that the stop position to be performed is within a predetermined pull-in range regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3.

  Here, in this type of conventional gaming machine, in order to control winning and avoiding winning of the correct answer and illegal answer according to the order of the stop operation, the payout of the correct answer is more than the payout of the illegal answerer. In addition to setting the payout for each winning combination, the number of winning combinations at the stop position where the symbols that make up the winning form for incorrect answering are displayed on the active line is the pattern that makes up the winning form for the correct answer Winning a winning combination while setting the symbol combination and the arrangement of each symbol to indicate the winning combination of correct answer and incorrect answering so that there will be more than the number of winning combinations that can be won at the stop position displayed on the active line According to the mode and the order of the stop operation, the priority of the stop position candidate is determined according to the number of medals paid out based on the payout, and the stop position candidate priority is determined according to the number of winning combinations. Switch to the desired process It had. Therefore, in this type of conventional gaming machine, the processing load in the game won by overlapping the correct answer combination and the illegal answer combination in the internal lottery increases, and the amount of data increases because different processes are switched. It was.

  Therefore, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the priority of the stop position candidate is determined according to the number of winning combinations that can be won without determining the priority of the stop position candidate according to the number of medals paid out based on the payout. Thus, winning and avoiding winning of the correct answer combination and the illegal answer combination are controlled in accordance with the order of the stop operation.

  Specifically, in the present embodiment, in a game in which the correct answer role belonging to any of the small role group 1 to the small role group 6 in the internal lottery, two types of correct answer roles, and four types of incorrect answer roles are won, When the pressing operation of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is performed in a specific order corresponding to the small role group won in the internal lottery, the winning combination of the correct answer combination and the two types of correct answer control roles is awarded regardless of the timing of the stop operation. The first stop position where the bell symbol “BL” constituting the form is displayed at the display position on the active line constitutes a winning form of any two types of illegal answering out of four types of illegal answering. More than the second stop position where the watermelon A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line, the number of winning combinations that can be won by the symbol displayed at the display position on the active line is smaller. To increase When the first stop position is selected as the stop position of the reel to be stopped first, and the pressing operation of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is not performed in a specific order corresponding to the small role group won in the internal lottery In addition, regardless of the timing of the stop operation, the watermelon A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” constituting the winning form of any two of the four types of illegal answering is displayed on the active line. The third stop position displayed at the position is the fourth stop position at which the bell symbol “BL” constituting the correct winning combination winning form is displayed on the active line, and the red constituting the correct controlling winning combination. 7 symbols "red 7" or black 7 symbols "black 7" can be awarded by the symbol displayed at the display position on the effective line rather than the fourth stop position displayed at the display position on the effective line. Increase in number Based on the bets, it adopts a method of selecting as the reel stop positions for stopping the third stop position first. Below, this method is demonstrated concretely.

  In the following description, “first stop operation” means a press operation of a stop button corresponding to the reel that stops first among the first reel R1 to the third reel R3, and “second stop operation” means , Means a pressing operation of a stop button corresponding to the second reel to be stopped among the first reel R1 to the third reel R3, and the “third stop operation” is one of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. It means the pressing operation of the stop button corresponding to the reel to be stopped at the end.

  First, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 7, the symbol combinations indicating the respective winning patterns of the correct answer control role 1, the correct answer control role 3, and the correct answer control role 5 (a plurality of first roles) are the correct answer winning styles. Is composed of the bell symbol “BL”, which is a symbol common to the symbols constituting the symbol, and the red 7 symbol “red 7” which is not displayed on the active line together with the symbol indicating the winning mode of the correct answer. The reels (specific reels) in which the bell symbol “BL” is set are different among the symbol combinations indicating the respective winning combinations of the control combination 3 and the correct answer control combination 5. In addition, the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of each of the correct answer control role 2, the correct answer control role 4 and the correct answer control role 6 (a plurality of first roles) is a bell which is a symbol common to the symbols constituting the winning style of the correct answer role. It is composed of a symbol “BL” and a black 7 symbol “black 7” which is not displayed on the active line together with a symbol indicating a winning combination of the correct answer combination, and each of the correct answer control role 2, the correct answer control role 4 and the correct answer control role 6 The reels (specific reels) in which the bell symbol “BL” is set are different among symbol combinations indicating a winning pattern.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 11, on the outer peripheral surfaces of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3, a bell symbol “BL” constituting a winning combination of a correct answer combination and a correct control combination 1 to a correct control combination 6, and an incorrect answer Each of the symbols is arranged so that the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” constituting the winning form of the combination 1 to the illegal answer 8 is not displayed at the display position on the active line at the same time. The red 7 symbol “red 7” or the black 7 symbol “black 7” that constitutes the winning pattern of the control role 1 to the correct answer controlling role 6 and the watermelon symbol A “ Each symbol is arranged so that “WMA” or watermelon symbol B “WMB” is not simultaneously displayed at the display position on the active line.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 7, in the small role group 1, the correct combination in which the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern is “BL / BL / BL”, “BL / red 7 / red 7”. Correct answer control 1 that is "BL / black 7 / black 7" correct answer control 2 that is "WMA / WMA / WMA" incorrect answer 1 that is "WMB / WMA / WMB" , "WMA / WMB / WMA" incorrect answer 3 and "WMB / WMB / WMB" incorrect answer 4 are selected in duplicate.

  Therefore, in the small role group 1, since the symbols related to the first reel R1 are the bell symbols “BL” in common between the symbol combinations indicating the winning combinations of the correct answer combination and the two types of correct answer control roles, One reel R1 is a specific reel in which the symbols constituting the winning combination of the correct answer combination and the symbols forming the respective winning patterns of the two types of correct answer controlling combinations are simultaneously displayed at the display positions on the effective line. In the small role group 1, the symbols relating to the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are the bell symbol “BL”, the red 7 symbol “red 7”, and the black 7 symbol “black 7”, respectively. The third reel R3 is a non-specific reel in which the symbols constituting the winning combination of the correct answer combination and the symbols constituting the respective winning patterns of the two types of correct answer controlling combinations are not displayed at the display positions on the effective line at the same time. .

  Thus, in the present embodiment, in a game in which a plurality of small combinations belonging to the small combination group 1 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the first reel R1 (performed first). When the reel corresponding to the stop operation is a specific reel and the stop operation is performed in a specific order), when a plurality of stop position candidates for the first reel R1 are compared, the bell symbol “BL” is For the stop position candidate (first stop position) displayed at the display position on the active line, the number of winning combinations that can be won is three: correct combination, correct control combination 1 and correct control combination 2, and the watermelon symbol A For the stop position candidate (second stop position) in which “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the active line, the number of winning combinations that can be won is two, incorrect answer 1 and incorrect answer 3, and the watermelon design B "WM ”Is displayed at the display position on the active line, the number of winning combinations that can be won is two, that is, incorrect answer 2 and incorrect answer 4, so that the correct answer Number of combinations that can be awarded as stop position candidates (first stop position) in which the bell symbol “BL” constituting the winning pattern of the correct answer control combination 1 and the correct answer control combination 2 is displayed at the display position on the active line. Will be the most.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the pressing detection position of the first reel R1 corresponding to the first stop operation is the position indicated by the braces 1-1 in the figure, the bell symbol “BL” of the eighth frame is displayed. Is a candidate for the stop position of the solid line frame 1-2 in the figure displayed at the lower display position, and the watermelon symbol A “WMA” of the ninth frame is displayed at the lower display position. The number of winning combinations that can be won is greater than the number of stop position candidates of 3.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 1 are won by internal lottery, the first stop is performed when the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the first reel R1. Regardless of the timing at which the operation is performed, a stop position candidate (first stop position) at which the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the active line is selected as the stop position of the first reel R1.

  Thus, when the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the effective line related to the first reel R1, the bell is displayed at the display position on the effective line regardless of the timing when the second stop operation and the third stop operation are performed. The second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are stopped so that the symbol “BL” is displayed and the correct combination is won.

  On the other hand, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 1 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the second reel R2 (corresponding to the first stop operation performed). When the reel is not a specific reel and the stop operation is not performed in a specific order), a plurality of stop position candidates for the second reel R2 are compared, and the bell symbol “BL” is displayed on the active line. For the stop position candidate (fourth stop position) displayed at the position, the number of winning combinations is one of the correct answers, and the red 7 symbol “red 7” is displayed at the display position on the active line. For the stop position candidate (fourth stop position), the number of winning combinations that can be won is one of the correct control combinations 1, and the black 7 symbol “black 7” is displayed at the display position on the active line. Candidate (4th stop position) The number of winning combinations that can be won becomes one of the correct answer controlling combinations 2, and the watermelon symbol A “WMA” can be awarded for the stop position candidate (third stop position) displayed at the display position on the active line. The number of winning combinations will be two, illegal answering 1 and illegal answering 2, and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” can be awarded for the stop position candidate (third stop position) displayed at the display position on the active line. Since the number of winning combinations is two, that is, illegal answering 3 and illegal answering 4, the stop position candidate (third stop position) and the watermelon where the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the active line The stop position candidate (third stop position) where the symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line has the largest number of winning combinations.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the pressing detection position of the second reel R2 corresponding to the first stop operation is the position indicated by the braces 2-1 in the figure, the watermelon symbol B “WMB” in the twelfth frame is displayed. ”Is displayed at the middle display position, and the candidate for the stop position in the broken line frame 2-2 in the figure is the solid line frame 2- in the figure where the bell symbol“ BL ”of frame 13 is displayed at the middle display position. 3 stop position candidates and 14th frame black 7 pattern “Black 7” are displayed at the middle display position. The number of winning combinations is higher than the stop position candidates in the solid line frame 2-4 in the figure. Become.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 1 are won by internal lottery, the first stop is performed when the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the second reel R2. Depending on the timing at which the operation was performed, the stop position candidate (third stop position) where the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the active line, or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is on the active line A candidate stop position (third stop position) displayed at the display position is selected as the stop position of the second reel R2.

  Thus, when the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the effective line related to the second reel R2, the second stop operation is performed according to the timing at which the second stop operation is performed. The watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line relating to the corresponding reel, and the reel corresponding to the third stop operation is displayed according to the timing when the third stop operation is performed. When the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line and one of the illegal answerers 1 to 4 wins the prize, The first reel R1 and the first reel R1 and the wrong answerer 4 may not win a prize without displaying the symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB”. Third reel R3 is stopped.

  In a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 1 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the third reel R3 (corresponding to the first stop operation performed). In the case where the reel is not a specific reel), a plurality of stop position candidates related to the third reel R3 are compared, and a stop position candidate (fourth stop position) in which the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the active line is compared. )), The number of possible winning combinations will be one of the correct combinations, and the red 7 symbol “red 7” will be displayed at the display position on the active line. The number of winning combinations becomes one of the correct answer controlling combinations 1 and a winning combination is possible for the stop position candidate (fourth stop position) where the black 7 symbol “black 7” is displayed at the display position on the active line. Is one of the two correct control roles Thus, for the stop position candidate (third stop position) where the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the active line, the number of winning combinations that can be won is 2 for illegal answer 1 and illegal answer 3 As for the stop position candidate (third stop position) in which the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line, the number of winning combinations that can be won is incorrect answer 2 and illegal answer 4 Since there are two, the stop position candidate (third stop position) where the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the effective line and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” are displayed at the display position on the effective line. The number of combinations in which the stop position candidates (third stop position) can win a prize is the largest.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the pressing detection position of the third reel R3 corresponding to the first stop operation is the position indicated by the braces 3-1 in the drawing, the watermelon symbol A “WMA” of the second frame is displayed. ”Is displayed at the upper display position, and the candidate for the stop position in the broken line frame 3-2 in the drawing is the solid line frame 3-3 in which the bell symbol“ BL ”of the first frame is displayed at the upper display position. 3 stop position candidates and the fifth frame red 7 pattern “red 7” are displayed at the lower display position. Become.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 1 are won by internal lottery and the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the third reel R3, the first stop Depending on the timing at which the operation was performed, the stop position candidate (third stop position) where the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the active line, or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is on the active line A candidate stop position (third stop position) displayed at the display position is selected as the stop position of the third reel R3.

  Thus, when the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the effective line with respect to the third reel R3, the second stop operation is performed according to the timing at which the second stop operation is performed. The watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line relating to the corresponding reel, and the reel corresponding to the third stop operation is displayed according to the timing when the third stop operation is performed. When the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line and one of the illegal answerers 1 to 4 wins the prize, The first reel R1 and the first reel R1 and the wrong answerer 4 may not win a prize without displaying the symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB”. Second reel R2 is stopped.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 7, in the small role group 3, the correct combination whose symbol combination indicating the winning pattern is “BL, BL, BL”, “Red 7, BL, Red 7”. Correct answer role 3, correct answer role 4 "Black 7 / BL / Black 7", incorrect answer role 1 "WMA / WMA / WMA", incorrect answer role 2 "WMB / WMA / WMB" , "WMA / WMB / WMA" incorrect answer 3 and "WMB / WMB / WMB" incorrect answer 4 are selected in duplicate.

  Therefore, in the small role group 3, since the symbols relating to the second reel R2 are the same in the symbol combination indicating the winning combinations of the correct combination and the two types of correct control combinations, the symbol “BL” is common. The two reels R2 are specific reels in which the symbols constituting the winning combination of the correct answer combination and the symbols forming the respective winning patterns of the two types of correct answer controlling combinations are simultaneously displayed at the display positions on the effective line. In the small role group 3, the symbols relating to the first reel R1 and the third reel R3 are the bell symbol “BL”, the red 7 symbol “red 7”, and the black 7 symbol “black 7”, respectively. The third reel R3 is a non-specific reel in which the symbols constituting the winning combination of the correct answer combination and the symbols constituting the respective winning patterns of the two types of correct answer controlling combinations are not displayed at the display positions on the effective line at the same time. .

  Accordingly, in the present embodiment, in a game in which a plurality of small combinations belonging to the small combination group 3 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the second reel R2 (which is performed first). When the reel corresponding to the stop operation is a specific reel), a plurality of stop position candidates related to the second reel R2 are compared, and the bells constituting the winning combination of the correct combination, the correct control combination 3 and the correct control combination 4 The stop position candidate (first stop position) in which the symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the active line has the largest number of winning combinations that can be won, so the timing at which the first stop operation is performed. Regardless, the stop position candidate (first stop position) at which the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the active line is selected as the stop position of the second reel R2.

  Thus, when the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the effective line related to the second reel R2, the bell is displayed at the display position on the effective line regardless of the timing when the second stop operation and the third stop operation are performed. The first reel R1 and the third reel R3 are stopped so that the symbol “BL” is displayed and the correct combination is won.

  On the other hand, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 3 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the first reel R1 (corresponding to the first stop operation performed). When the reel is not a specific reel, a plurality of stop position candidates related to the first reel R1 are compared, and a stop position candidate (third stop position) in which the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the active line is compared. Position) and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” are displayed at the display position on the active line, the stop position candidate (the third stop position) has the largest number of winning combinations, so the first reel R1 As a stop position, depending on the timing at which the first stop operation is performed, a watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed as a stop position candidate (third stop position) displayed at the display position on the active line, or a watermelon symbol Candidate stop position "WMB" is displayed on the display position of the effective line (third stop position) is selected.

  Thus, when the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the effective line with respect to the first reel R1, the second stop operation is performed according to the timing at which the second stop operation is performed. The watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line relating to the corresponding reel, and the reel corresponding to the third stop operation is displayed according to the timing when the third stop operation is performed. When the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line and one of the illegal answerers 1 to 4 wins the prize, The second reel R2 and the second reel R2 are not displayed so that the symbol A "WMA" or the watermelon symbol B "WMB" may not be displayed and any of the illegal answering 1 to illegal answering 4 may not win. Third reel R3 is stopped.

  Further, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 3 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the third reel R3 (corresponding to the first stop operation performed). In the case where the reel is not a specific reel, a plurality of stop position candidates related to the third reel R3 are compared, and a stop position candidate (third stop position) in which the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the active line is compared. Position) and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” are displayed at the display position on the active line. The stop position candidate (third stop position) has the largest number of winning combinations, so the first stop operation is performed. Depending on the timing performed, the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the effective line, the stop position candidate (third stop position), or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed on the effective line. Candidate stop position displayed in the location (the third stop position) is selected as the stop position of the third reel R3.

  Thus, when the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the effective line with respect to the third reel R3, the second stop operation is performed according to the timing at which the second stop operation is performed. The watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line relating to the corresponding reel, and the reel corresponding to the third stop operation is displayed according to the timing when the third stop operation is performed. When the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line and one of the illegal answerers 1 to 4 wins the prize, The first reel R1 and the first reel R1 and the wrong answerer 4 may not win a prize without displaying the symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB”. Second reel R2 is stopped.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 7, in the small role group 5, the correct combination whose symbol combination indicating the winning pattern is “BL / BL / BL”, “Red 7 / Red 7 / BL”. Correct answer control 5 which is “black 7 / black 7 / BL”, correct answer 1 which is “WMA / WMA / WMA”, incorrect answer 2 which is “WMB / WMA / WMB” , "WMA / WMB / WMA" incorrect answer 3 and "WMB / WMB / WMB" incorrect answer 4 are selected in duplicate.

  Therefore, in the small role group 5, since the symbols related to the third reel R3 are all the bell symbol “BL” between the symbol combinations indicating the winning combinations of the correct answer combination and the two types of correct control roles, The 3-reel R3 is a specific reel in which the symbols constituting the winning combination of the correct answer combination and the symbols forming the respective winning patterns of the two types of correct answer controlling combinations are simultaneously displayed at the display positions on the effective line. In the small role group 5, the symbols relating to the first reel R1 and the second reel R2 are the bell symbol “BL”, the red 7 symbol “red 7”, and the black 7 symbol “black 7”, respectively. The second reel R2 is a non-specific reel in which the symbols constituting the winning combination for the correct answer combination and the symbols constituting the respective winning patterns for the two types of correct answer controlling combinations are not displayed at the display position on the active line at the same time. .

  Thus, in the present embodiment, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 5 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the third reel R3 (performed first). When the reel corresponding to the stop operation is a specific reel), a plurality of stop position candidates related to the third reel R3 are compared, and the bells constituting the winning combination of the correct combination, the correct control combination 5 and the correct control combination 6 The stop position candidate (first stop position) in which the symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the active line has the largest number of winning combinations that can be won, so the timing at which the first stop operation is performed. Regardless, the stop position candidate (first stop position) at which the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the active line is selected as the stop position of the third reel R3.

  Thus, when the bell symbol “BL” is displayed at the display position on the effective line with respect to the third reel R3, the bell is displayed at the display position on the effective line regardless of the timing at which the second stop operation and the third stop operation are performed. The first reel R1 and the second reel R2 are stopped so that the symbol “BL” is displayed and the correct combination is won.

  On the other hand, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 5 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the first reel R1 (corresponding to the first stop operation performed). When the reel is not a specific reel, a plurality of stop position candidates related to the first reel R1 are compared, and a stop position candidate (third stop position) in which the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the active line is compared. Position) and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” are displayed at the display position on the active line, the stop position candidate (the third stop position) has the largest number of winning combinations, so the first reel R1 As a stop position, depending on the timing at which the first stop operation is performed, a watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed as a stop position candidate (third stop position) displayed at the display position on the active line, or a watermelon symbol Candidate stop position "WMB" is displayed on the display position of the effective line (third stop position) is selected.

  Thus, when the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the effective line with respect to the first reel R1, the second stop operation is performed according to the timing at which the second stop operation is performed. The watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line relating to the corresponding reel, and the reel corresponding to the third stop operation is displayed according to the timing when the third stop operation is performed. When the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line and one of the illegal answerers 1 to 4 wins the prize, The second reel R2 and the second reel R2 are not displayed so that the symbol A "WMA" or the watermelon symbol B "WMB" may not be displayed and any of the illegal answering 1 to illegal answering 4 may not win. Third reel R3 is stopped.

  In a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 5 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the second reel R2 (corresponding to the first stop operation performed). When the reel is not a specific reel, a plurality of stop position candidates related to the second reel R2 are compared, and a stop position candidate (third stop position) in which the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the active line is compared. Position) and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” are displayed at the display position on the active line. The stop position candidate (third stop position) has the largest number of winning combinations, so the first stop operation is performed. Depending on the timing performed, the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the effective line, the stop position candidate (third stop position), or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed on the effective line. Candidate stop position displayed in the location (the third stop position) is selected as the stop position of the second reel R2.

  Thus, when the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the effective line related to the second reel R2, the second stop operation is performed according to the timing at which the second stop operation is performed. The watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line relating to the corresponding reel, and the reel corresponding to the third stop operation is displayed according to the timing when the third stop operation is performed. When the watermelon symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line and one of the illegal answerers 1 to 4 wins the prize, The first reel R1 and the first reel R1 and the wrong answerer 4 may not win a prize without displaying the symbol A “WMA” or the watermelon symbol B “WMB”. Third reel R3 is stopped.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 1 are won by internal lottery, and when a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 3 are simultaneously won, In the case where a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 5 are won in the internal lottery, that is, depending on the winning mode of the correct role, the symbols constituting the winning combination of the correct role and two types of correct control roles The specific reel in which the symbols constituting each winning pattern are displayed at the display position on the active line at the same time changes. As a result, in this embodiment, in a game in which the correct answer and the incorrect answer are won in the internal lottery, it is possible to win without determining the priority of the stop position candidates according to the number of medals paid out based on the dividend. By determining the priority of the candidate for the stop position according to the number of winning combinations, when the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is a specific reel, the winning combination of the correct answer is won by avoiding the incorrect winning combination. As described above, when the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are stopped and the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is not the specific reel, the winning of the correct answer is avoided and the incorrect answer is awarded according to the timing of the stop operation. The first reel R1 to the third reel R3 can be stopped so that there is a case where it is performed and a case where no prize is awarded.

  Thereby, in this embodiment, the process which selects the stop position of the reel in the game where the correct answer combination and the incorrect answer combination are won in the internal lottery can be simplified, and the processing load and the data amount can be reduced.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, since it is not necessary to set the dividend for each role so that the dividend for the correct answer is greater than the dividend for the illegal answer, the relationship between the dividend for the correct answer and the dividend for the illegal answer The payout for correct answer and the payout for illegal answer can be set without consideration. Therefore, in the present embodiment, as described above, the payout for the correct answer and the payout for the incorrect answer may be the same, or the payout for the correct answer may be larger than the payout for the incorrect answer. You may make it less.

  Further, in the present embodiment, as a group in which a plurality of types of small roles are won in the internal lottery, the small role group 1, the small role group 3, and the small role group 5 to which the above-described incorrect answer 1 to incorrect answer 4 belong. In the case where the stop operation in the game in which a plurality of types of small roles are won in the internal lottery is not performed in a specific order, the first stop operation and the second stop operation are performed. In accordance with the symbol displayed at the display position on the active line for the corresponding reel, the player is informed of the symbol that can be displayed at the display position on the effective line for the reel corresponding to the third stop operation. The winning probability of fraudulent removal increases.

  For example, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 1 are won by internal lottery and the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the second reel R2, the effective line for the second reel R2 Assume that the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the upper display position. When the reel corresponding to the second stop operation is the first reel R1 and the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the effective line related to the first reel R1, the symbol combination of the winning pattern is “WMA”. Only the possibility of winning a wrong answer 1 that is “WMA / WMA” remains. When the reel corresponding to the second stop operation is the first reel R1 and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line related to the first reel R1, the symbol combination of the winning pattern is “ Only the possibility of winning a wrong answer 2 that is “WMB / WMA / WMB” remains. Therefore, in this case, the player will be aware of symbols that can be displayed at the display position on the effective line for the third reel R3.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, as the groups in which multiple types of small roles are won in the internal lottery, the small role group 2 and the small role group 4 to which the incorrect answerers 5 to 8 belong. The small role group 6 is set, the small role group 2 includes the correct answer control role 1 and the correct answer control role 2 as in the small role group 1, and the small role group 4 is the same as the small role group 3. The correct answer control role 3 and the correct answer control role 4 belong to the small role group 6, and the correct answer control role 5 and the correct answer control role 6 belong to the small role group 6.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 7, the symbol combinations indicating the winning forms of the illegal answering 1 to the illegal answering 8 are the symbols related to any two of the symbols related to the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. The symbols for each reel are set so that there are two combinations of symbols with the same symbol and different symbols for the remaining one reel, regardless of which two reels have the same symbol. ing.

  For example, as the symbol combination “WMA / WMA / WMA” indicating the winning form of the illegal answer 1 and the symbols relating to the first reel R1 and the second reel R2 are the same, but the symbols relating to the third reel R3 are different. , There is a symbol combination “WMA / WMA / WMB” indicating the winning form of the illegal answering 5 and the symbol combination “WMA / WMA / WMA” indicating the winning type of the incorrect answering 1 and the first reel R1 and the third reel There is a symbol combination “WMA / WMB / WMA” indicating a winning form of illegal answering 3 as a symbol combination in which the symbols relating to R3 are the same but the symbols relating to the second reel R2 are different. The symbol combination “WMA / WMA / WMA” indicating the form and the symbol relating to the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are the same, but the symbol relating to the first reel R1. As a symbol combination that is different, symbol combination indicating the winning form of incorrect Auditors 6, "WMB · WMA · WMA" exists.

  Thereby, in this embodiment, when the stop operation in the game in which a plurality of types of small roles are won in the internal lottery is not performed in a specific order, two types are performed when the third stop operation is performed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the player from perceiving the symbol that can be displayed at the display position on the active line for the reel corresponding to the third stop operation. It is possible to prevent the probability of winning the correct answer from rising.

  For example, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 1 are won by internal lottery and the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the second reel R2, the effective line for the second reel R2 Assume that the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the upper display position. However, in this embodiment, even if the reel corresponding to the second stop operation is the first reel R1 and the watermelon symbol A “WMA” is displayed at the display position on the effective line related to the first reel R1, There remains a possibility of winning an illegal answer 1 with the symbol combination “WMA / WMA / WMA” and an illegal answer 5 with the “WMA / WMA / WMB”. In addition, even if the reel corresponding to the second stop operation is the first reel R1 and the watermelon symbol B “WMB” is displayed at the display position on the active line related to the first reel R1, the symbol combination of the winning pattern is “ There remains a possibility of winning the wrong answer 2 which is “WMB / WMA / WMB” and the wrong answer 6 which is “WMB / WMA / WMA”. Therefore, in this embodiment, it is possible to prevent the player from perceiving a symbol that can be displayed at the display position on the effective line related to the third reel R3.

4). Modifications The present invention is not limited to those described in the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made. Modifications will be introduced below. Note that the above-described embodiment and various methods described below as modified examples can be appropriately combined and employed as a control method for realizing the present invention.

  For example, in the above embodiment, since the symbols related to one of the reels are common among the symbol combinations indicating the winning combinations of the correct winning combination and the two types of correct controlling combinations, the winning combination of the correct winning combination is Although the example which the stop position where the symbol which constitutes and the symbol which constitutes each winning form of two kinds of correct answer control roles are displayed at the display position on the effective line at the same time exists is explained, Among the combinations of symbols indicating the winning combinations of the correct answer winning combination and the two types of correct answer controlling combinations, the symbols are not common for any reel, but the symbols constituting the winning combination of the correct answer and the two types There may be a stop position at which the symbols constituting each winning form of the correct answer control combination are simultaneously displayed at the display position on the active line.

  Specifically, for example, the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the correct answer belonging to the small role group 1 is “BL / BL / BL”, and the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the correct answer controlling role 1 is “DUM1 / red 7 / red”. 7 ”, and the symbol combination indicating the winning mode of the correct answer control role 2 is“ DUM1, black 7, black 7 ”, the bell symbol“ BL ”and the dummy symbol 1 in the first reel R1, as shown in FIG. Since “DUM1” is arranged with an interval of one frame, in a game in which a plurality of small roles belonging to the small role group 1 are won by internal lottery, the reel corresponding to the first stop operation is the first reel. In the case of the reel R1 (when the stop operation is performed in a specific order), the bell symbol “BL” is displayed on the upper stage of the first reel R1, and the dummy symbol 1 “DUM1” is displayed on the first reel R1. Stop position displayed in the lower row A candidate (first stop position), or a bell symbol “BL” is displayed in the lower stage of the first reel R1, and a dummy position 1 “DUM1” is displayed in the upper stage of the first reel R1 (first position) With regard to the (stop position), the number of winning combinations that can be won is three, that is, the correct combination, the correct control combination 1 and the correct control combination 2, and the number of combinations that can be won can be maximized.

  In the above embodiment, in the game in which a plurality of small roles are won in the internal lottery, an example in which the correct answer control 1 to the correct answer control 6 are not won has been described. Even in a game in which a small combination is won, the correct control combination 1 to the correct control combination 6 may win depending on the timing of the stop operation.

  Moreover, although the said embodiment demonstrated and gave the example which the some small combination which wins redundantly by internal lottery is one type of correct combination, two types of correct control combination, and four types of incorrect combination, When the operation is performed in a specific order, the first stop position where the symbols constituting the winning combination of the correct answer combination and the symbols constituting the winning combination of the correct answer controlling combination are displayed at the display position on the active line. However, a symbol that can be awarded by a symbol displayed at the display position on the effective line rather than the second stop position at which the symbols constituting the plurality of illegally winning combinations are displayed at the display position on the effective line. In the case where the number increases and the stop operation is not performed in a specific order, the third stop position where the symbols constituting the plurality of incorrect answer winning forms are displayed at the display position on the active line is more , The symbols that make up the winning form of the correct answer are on the effective line The symbol which is displayed at the display position on the effective line rather than the fourth stop position which is displayed at the display position on the effective line than the fourth stop position displayed at the display position and the symbol which constitutes the winning pattern of the correct answer control combination The combination of the roles belonging to each small role group (winning mode of the roles), the symbol combination indicating the winning mode of each role, the symbol arrangement of each reel, and the effective If the arrangement of the lines is set, the number of each small combination to be won in the internal lottery can be changed. For example, two or more correct answers may belong to one small role group. In this case, one or less correct control roles may belong to one small role group. That is, the total number of correct combinations and correct control combinations to be won in duplicate in the internal lottery may be three or more.

  Specifically, the internal lottery means 120 determines whether or not a combination is successful so that there may be a case where a plurality of correct answer combinations (first combination) and a plurality of incorrect answer combinations (second combination) are selected. In a game in which the reel control means 130 wins multiple correct answer combinations and multiple incorrect answer combinations, the timing of the first stop operation is performed when the first stop operation is performed in a specific order. Regardless of the first stop position in which the symbols constituting a plurality of correct winning combination winning patterns are displayed at the display position on the effective line, the symbols constituting the plurality of second winning combinations are on the effective line. The first stop position is changed to the first stop operation based on the fact that the number of winning combinations that can be won by the symbols displayed at the display position on the active line is larger than the second stop position displayed at the display position. Is selected as the reel stop position corresponding to the first stop operation. Is not performed in a specific order, the third stop position at which the symbols constituting the plurality of illegal answer winning forms are displayed at the display position on the active line regardless of the timing of the first stop operation You can win with the symbol displayed at the display position on the active line, rather than the fourth stop position at which the symbols that make up any of the winning combinations of multiple correct answers are displayed at the display position on the active line The third stop position may be selected as the reel stop position corresponding to the first stop operation performed based on the increase in the number of winning combinations.

  In this example, in a game in which a plurality of correct answerers and a plurality of incorrect answerers are elected, when the stop operation is performed in a specific order, a plurality of correct answerers are determined regardless of the timing of the stop operation. The spinning reel is stopped so that either one wins. Here, as a plurality of correct answer combinations, there may be a correct answer combination that wins regardless of the timing of the stop operation and a correct answer combination that does not win regardless of the timing of the stop operation. The correct winning combination is won, but the correct winning combination may be different depending on the timing of the stop operation.

  In the above embodiment, the illegal winning combinations 1 to 8 are set as illegal winning combinations that are won in duplicate with the correct answer combination, so that a plurality of kinds of small roles are won in the internal lottery. In the case where the stop operation in is not performed in a specific order, an explanation is given of an example in which the possibility of winning two types of incorrect solvers remains when the third stop operation is performed. The game in which multiple types of small roles are duplicated in the internal lottery by setting up 4 types of illegal roles as illegal fraud 1 In the case where the stop operation is not performed in a specific order, the possibility of winning one type of illegal answering may be left when the third stop operation is performed.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, an example is described in which symbol combinations indicating respective winning patterns of the illegal answering 1 to the illegal answering 8 are configured by a combination of the watermelon symbol A “WMA” and the watermelon symbol B “WMB”. However, the combination of the watermelon symbol A “WMA”, the watermelon symbol B “WMB”, and the watermelon symbol C “WMC” is combined to form a symbol combination indicating each winning form of the illegal answering 1 to the illegal answering 27. On the other hand, if a stop operation in a game in which a plurality of types of small roles are won in the internal lottery is not performed in a specific order, three types of illegal answer combinations are performed when the third stop operation is performed. The possibility of winning may be left. In this way, it is possible to reduce the probability of winning a wrong answer. In this case, the watermelon design A “WMA”, the watermelon design B “WMB”, and the watermelon design C “WMC” are respectively formed on the outer peripheral surfaces of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. And the red 7 symbol “red 7” and the black 7 symbol “black 7” may be arranged at the same time so that the symbols are not displayed at the display position on the effective line.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the description has been given by taking a gaming machine having three reels as an example, but the method of the above embodiment can also be applied to a gaming machine having four or more reels.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the replay lottery state fluctuates according to the gaming state and the number of games has been described as an example. However, the replay lottery state varies according to the symbol combination displayed on the active line. You may do it. For example, when the replay lottery state is a replay high probability state, when no small role is won in a game in which multiple types of small roles belonging to any of the small role groups 1 to 6 are selected The lottery state of replay can be changed to the replay low probability state by the special symbol combination displayed on the active line. Further, for example, when the replay lottery state is a low replay probability state, the replay lottery state can be changed to a replay high probability state by a special symbol combination. In this way, fluctuations in the replay lottery state make it easier to give a undulation to the player's medal consumption situation and improve game playability. In addition, when the replay lottery state is the low replay probability state and the correct combination is won, the replay lottery state may be changed to the replay high probability state. In this way, since the player can give the opportunity to change the lottery state of the replay to an advantageous situation by pressing the stop button in an appropriate pressing order, the game specification that attracts the player's interest Can be realized.

  Moreover, although the said embodiment gave and demonstrated the example in which one type of replay was set as the role used as the object of an internal lottery, the internal lottery means 120 has multiple types including a 1st replay and a 2nd replay. It is determined whether or not a winning combination is made so that there is a case where the replay is won in duplicate, and the reel control means 130 presses the stop buttons B1 to B3 in a game in which a plurality of types of replays are won in the internal lottery. Are performed in a specific order, the first replay is won regardless of the pressing timing of the stop buttons B1 to B3 while avoiding the second replay winning, and the pressing operation of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is performed. If not performed in a specific order, the second replay is won regardless of the timing of pressing the stop buttons B1 to B3 while avoiding the first replay winning. It may perform control to. And, for example, based on the fact that the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first replay is displayed on the active line, the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the second replay is changed by changing the lottery state of replay to the high probability state of replay. The lottery state of replay may be changed to a replay low probability state based on the fact that it is displayed on the active line.
