Description

  The present invention relates to a game hall system capable of browsing game information using a mobile terminal.

  As a game site system for providing personal game information for each player regarding games such as pachinko machines and slot machines, for example, personal game information is individually transferred to a portable terminal possessed by the player A system is conceivable. However, portable terminals such as mobile phones are not suitable for storing and holding a large amount of game information because of limited data storage capacity.

  Therefore, for a game hall that combines a game machine that generates and displays a QR code (R) or the like representing game information, and a portable terminal that reads the QR code (R) to identify game information and transfers it to the server device. A system has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In this game hall system, personal game information of each player is managed by a server device and can be viewed using a portable terminal such as a cellular phone.

  However, the conventional game system has the following problems. That is, while basic game information such as the number of jackpots and the number of games can be displayed by QR code (R) or the like, for example, a complicated history such as a game history including the number of games per jackpot or the number of acquired game media Regarding game information, there are cases where the game information cannot be displayed sufficiently depending on the QR code (R) or the like for which the amount of information that can be recorded is not sufficient. In addition, if game information is transferred directly to the mobile terminal, it takes a long communication time or problems such as a communication interface occur.

The game system includes: information erasing means that erases the first individual information in accordance with the establishment of the first erasure condition set in advance, but does not erase the second individual information. ).

  In the game system according to the present invention, when individual information which is personal game information is generated, an information ID is associated with the individual information and transmitted to the management server means, while on the gaming machine side An ID image that can specify the information ID is displayed. If the player captures the ID image using a portable terminal, the information ID associated with the individual information can be specified. Thereafter, if the information ID is designated from the portable terminal and the management server means is accessed, the individual information associated with the information ID can be browsed by the portable terminal or the like.

In the game hall system of the present invention, the amount of individual information that can be browsed by a portable terminal or the like is not limited by the amount of information that can be displayed by the ID image. Generally, there is a restriction on the amount of information that can be displayed with an ID image, and complex game information cannot be handled if all information is transmitted via the ID image. According to the game field system of the present invention, it is possible to output a large amount of individual information that greatly exceeds the amount of information that can be displayed by an ID image from the server output means, and to provide more complex game information using a portable terminal or the like. It is possible to browse.
Further, the system of the present invention is configured such that individual information is transmitted via public communication to a mobile terminal that has captured an ID image, such as infrared communication between the gaming machine side and the mobile terminal. There is no need to provide a dedicated interface.

  In the game hall system according to the present invention, the individual information managed by the management server means can be browsed by allowing the portable terminal to identify the information ID via the ID image displayed on the gaming machine side. become. Since it is not necessary to store the individual information itself in the portable terminal, the information amount of the individual information that can be browsed is not limited by the hardware specifications of the portable terminal such as the data storage capacity.

If an attempt is made to transfer (upload) the individual information to the management server means via the mobile terminal, both the communication cost when transferring and the communication cost when downloading the individual information for viewing are both Necessary. In general, the uplink communication speed from the mobile terminal side to the management server means is very slow compared to the downlink communication speed, and may be 1/10.
In the game hall system according to the present invention, it is not necessary to transfer the individual information to the management server means via the portable terminal. Therefore, the communication cost required for the transfer of the individual information can be saved, and the transfer requires a long time. Communication time can be eliminated.

  Furthermore, in the game hall system according to the present invention, the first individual information that is the unidentified individual information and the second individual that is the identified individual information are associated with the portable information ID by the server individual information identifying unit. Information is stored separately. The first individual information is game information of a player who has not accessed the management server means, while the second individual information is game information of a player who has accessed the management server means using a portable terminal. . It can be inferred that the degree of interest held by the corresponding player is different between the first individual information and the second individual information, and the degree of interest held by the corresponding player is higher.

  In consideration of the difference in the degree of interest on the player side, in the game system of the present invention, the first individual information is erased in response to the establishment of a preset first erasure condition. The 2 individual information is not erased even if the first erasure condition is satisfied. In the game hall system of the present invention, the handling of such individual information enables efficient use of limited storage areas such as the management server means and the server storage means.

  As described above, the game system according to the present invention suppresses the amount of information such as the individual information managed by the management server means when the individual information managed by the management server means is browsed by the portable terminal etc. Efficient use is realized. As a result, it is possible to suppress the size of the storage area that needs to be provided in the management server means or the like in operating the system, and the system cost can be reduced.

  Examples of the gaming machine constituting the gaming system according to the present invention include a slot machine and a pachinko gaming machine. The slot machine may be a slot machine that uses game media such as medals and coins as the game value, but may also be a so-called complete credit type slot machine that does not use game media. Further, in the case of a slot machine, a parrot (R) that uses a pachinko ball as a game medium may be used. The pachinko gaming machine may be a pachinko gaming machine with payout of a pachinko ball as a game medium, or may be a so-called enclosed pachinko gaming machine without paying out a pachinko ball.

As the ID image in the game room system of the present invention, for example, an image of a two-dimensional code such as a QR code (R) in addition to a one-dimensional code image such as a barcode can be adopted.
In the game hall system of the present invention, a mobile phone or game machine that can specify an information ID from the ID image and can access the management server means via a public communication line such as the Internet or a public telephone network A terminal such as a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) can be used as the portable terminal. For example, it is not an essential requirement to provide a dedicated interface such as infrared communication on the portable terminal or the gaming machine side.

  The ID specifying information received from the mobile terminal that has accessed the management server means by the server receiving means in the game system of the present invention may be the ID image itself or the ID information itself. Furthermore, information that can identify an ID image or ID information may be used.

In the game system according to a preferred aspect of the present invention, when the display unit displays the ID image, the individual information is more easily deleted when the ID is not accessed than when the management server is accessed. Or a display indicating the first erasing condition (claim 2).
Such a display can motivate a player who does not want to delete individual information to access the management server means. Furthermore, the player's interest in the service provided by the game hall system can be aroused and the use can be promoted.

In the game room system according to a preferred aspect of the present invention, the first erasure condition is satisfied when a preset first elapsed period elapses from a creation time corresponding to the time when the individual information is created. And
The information erasing means is to establish a second erasure condition that is established when a second elapsed period that is set longer than the first elapsed period elapses from the preset creation time. In response, the second individual information is erased (claim 3).
In this case, the individual information of each player can be appropriately managed only by managing the elapsed period from the creation time point. Individual information of each player can be deleted at an appropriate timing according to the degree of interest on the player side.

The server receiving means in the game hall system according to a preferred aspect of the present invention provides operation information that can identify retained individual information that is individual information that the player wants to retain specified by the retaining operation received by the mobile terminal. Received from a mobile device,
The information erasing means excludes the retained individual information specified by the operation information from being erased according to the establishment of the second erasing condition (claim 4).

  In this case, the individual information that the player wants to hold can be excluded from the deletion target of the second deletion condition by the holding operation on the player side. While responding to the player's need for not erasing the individual information, the second individual information for which no holding operation is performed can be efficiently erased.

A game hall system according to a preferred aspect of the present invention is a condition established by the individual information belonging to a mission period that is a corresponding period, and a condition for a mission event in which a privilege is given to a player in accordance with the establishment. A condition management means for managing the mission conditions,
The mission condition is set, and according to the setting, the mission setting means for transmitting the condition information capable of specifying the mission condition to the condition management means,
The condition management means determines whether or not the mission condition is satisfied by comparing the mission condition and the individual information.
The server storage means stores mission information which is game information capable of specifying the establishment status of the mission condition determined by the condition management means,
The information erasing means erases mission information in response to the establishment of a third erasing condition different from the first erasing condition and the second erasing condition.

  If a third erasure condition different from the erasure condition corresponding to the first and second individual information is set as the erasure condition of the mission information, for example, it is necessary to specify the success or failure of the mission condition after the mission period has elapsed. Mission information can be deleted when it is lost. Even when a mission event or the like is performed, the size of a storage area necessary for storing mission information can be suppressed.

Hereinafter, each apparatus etc. which comprise the system 1 for game centers of this example are demonstrated in detail.

  The gaming machine 40 of this example is a slot machine in which a symbol starts to fluctuate in response to an operation of a start lever, a game is started, and a winning is generated by a combination of symbols that are stopped and displayed in response to an operation of a stop button. As a winning combination, in addition to a small combination such as a five-piece combination and a replay combination, a bonus combination that triggers the occurrence of a bonus state is set. As the bonus combination, the BB combination that is the most advantageous trigger in the BB state with the largest number of payouts and the RB combination corresponding to the RB state are set.

Further, in the gaming machine 40 of the present example, an ART state is set in which an AT in which notification for assisting the winning of the internal winning combination is performed and an RT in which the winning probability of the replay combination is generated occur in a composite manner. The ART state is a gaming state advantageous to the player side in which the payout rate is higher than that in the normal state. This ART state occurs (shifts) when a predetermined ART combination wins in a normal state, and ends when the ART end condition (50 games have passed) is established. At the end, an ART continuous lottery is performed, and 50 games are newly added according to the winning.
In the gaming machine 40 of this example, the BB state, the RB state, and the ART state are special states.

  In the game of the gaming machine 40, the game can be started by inserting a predetermined number of medals, and a predetermined number of medals can be paid out according to the type of the winning combination. The difference obtained by subtracting the number of medals inserted by the player from the number of medals paid out according to the winning is the number of medals acquired by the player through the game.

The game signals output by the gaming machine 40 as the game progresses include at least the following game signals. The game signal is transmitted to the on-site network 300 via the repeater 45 and also transferred to the information display device 41.
(1) Safe signal (payout signal): A signal that is output by one pulse each time a medal is paid out. The number of safe signals (number of outputs) × 1 is safe (number of payout media). Even when a replay winning combination is won, the medals used in the game are output.
(2) Out signal (consumption signal): A signal in which, when a game is started, the bet state medals are consumed and the number of bet state medals (three) is pulsed in response to the start operation. The number of out signals (number of outputs) × 1 is out (the number of consumed media and the number of used media). Note that the corresponding amount is also output during replay.
(3) Bonus signal: A level signal output during the occurrence of a bonus state. There are a BB signal corresponding to the BB state and an RB signal corresponding to the RB state.
(4) ART signal: A level signal output during the generation of an ART condition.

When accessing the home page (HP) of the data server device 2 from the mobile terminal 5, the information ID specified from the two-dimensional code and the mobile ID that is identification information of the mobile terminal 5 are transmitted to the data server device 2. The

  The data server device 2 associates the portable ID received from the accessed portable terminal 5 with the received information ID (described later with reference to FIG. 5). In the first access, player information can be input, and the input player information is also associated with a portable ID.

  The information display device 41 identifies game information within the individual period as individual information, and transmits the individual information to the data server device 2 via the game hall management device 30. At this time, since the information ID is transmitted in association with the individual information, the data server device 2 can associate the portable ID with the individual information via the information ID.

  In a game in which a membership card is inserted into the base terminal 42, the period during which the membership card is accepted is specified as the gaming period of the player. When the individual period is ended by discharging the membership card, the information display device 41 does not display the two-dimensional code. In this case, since the individual information associated with the card ID is transmitted to the data server device 2 instead of or in addition to the information ID, in the data server device 2, the mobile ID and the individual information are transmitted via the card ID. It is associated.

  On the HP of the data server device 2, individual information corresponding to the mobile ID can be browsed as shown in FIGS. In addition, players can register with each other as a group, and can view individual information of other players in the group on the premise that they are registered as a group.

  In the data server device 2 of this example, the individual information is retained for at least one week, and the individual information is deleted when the information ID is not received from the portable terminal 5 within one week. The individual information for which the card ID or the information ID is specified is stored for half a year and then deleted. Note that, for example, a maximum of 10 pieces of individual information designated by the player may be excluded from being deleted.

<Handling of membership cards>
The membership card registration operation can be performed at the registration terminal 33 that is accepting the membership card. When the registration operation by the player is performed, the registration terminal 33 displays a code image in which the HP address of the data server device 2 and the member card ID being received are recorded. If the player captures the code image with the portable terminal 5, the data server device 2 can be accessed in accordance with the reading of the address. If a blank e-mail is transmitted to the data server device 2, the association between the card ID of the member card being accepted by the registration terminal 33 and the portable ID of the portable terminal 5 that is the sender of the blank e-mail is associated with the data server device 2 side. Executed. On the display screen of the registration terminal 33, player information can be input by performing a predetermined reception registration operation. The player information registered in this way is managed by the data server device 2 in association with the card ID.

  When the membership card is received at the stand terminal 42, it is inquired to the data server device 2 via the game hall management device 30 whether or not the card ID has been registered. If registered, the latest game in the database managed by the data server device 2 is updated, and if not registered, the information display device 41 displays that it is registered. In the gaming hall system 1 of this example, individual information is managed in the gaming hall management apparatus 30 in association with information IDs and card IDs. When the card ID is not registered in the data server device 2, the individual information corresponding to the card ID is not transmitted to the data server device 2 and can be viewed on the registration terminal 33 only on the current day.

  In the game hall system 1 of this example, the individual information is transmitted to the data server device 2 not only when the game is finished but also when the mission is completed. However, when the terminal 42 accepts the membership card, the information display The two-dimensional code is not displayed on the terminal 41. Such a specification is a specification for preventing complication of the system by issuing an unnecessary information ID because it is possible to specify which player's individual information is based on the card ID. Instead of the two-dimensional code (ID image) representing the information ID, a two-dimensional code representing the HP address or the like of the data server device 2 may be displayed at the end of the game.

<About Mission>
In the game hall system 1 of this example, mission conditions can be set in the data server device 2. When a mission condition is added or changed on the data server device 2 side, condition information representing the contents is transmitted to the game hall management device 30, and the mission conditions are managed in each game hall. As for the mission condition, the game hall management device 30 cannot accept a setting change by an operation.

  In the game hall system 1 of this example, the information ID is transmitted even at the start of the game, and the data server device 2 manages whether or not each game machine is in an individual period. When the information ID corresponding to the game start is transmitted during the individual period, the next game start is specified after the ongoing individual period is forcibly terminated. The individual information of the individual period forcibly terminated in this way is stored in the data server device 2 after inquiring the game hall management device 30 separately to identify the information ID or card ID. In addition, since the information display apparatus 41 of this example has a specification that does not accept a start operation during an individual period, a new start operation is not performed during the continuation of the individual period. Therefore, on the information display device 41 side, the individual period forcibly terminated as described above and the individual information can be specified. In addition, it may be suppressed by prohibiting the start of the game without inquiring about the information ID, etc., or the start of the game during the individual period is temporarily prohibited, on the condition that it can be specified by inquiring about the information ID etc. A new game start may be allowed. It should be noted that instead of prohibition, it may of course be suppressed by adding restrictions such as requiring employee authentication. The same applies to this point and others.

When the card ID is transmitted at the start of the game, all the individual information corresponding to the card ID is returned from the data server device 2 to the game hall management device 30. The game hall management device 30 compares the mission condition with the received individual information to determine success or failure of the mission. When only the information ID is transmitted at the start of the game, the data server device 2 returns the individual information corresponding to the information ID to the game hall management device 30.
By configuring in this way, on the game site management device 30 side, the individual information of the game played by the player other than the corresponding game site is taken into consideration, and the mission establishment status is determined by the individual information of the player thereafter Can be specified. In addition, as individual information transmitted from the data server device 2, if not all corresponding to the card ID, only individual information corresponding to the mission condition is extracted and transmitted, or the individual information is once aggregated. Even if the accumulated game information is transmitted, and even the game information indicating how much the mission condition can be established, the player's information specified by the individual information associated with the card ID Any game information may be used as long as it is game information.
Note that the result of collating the mission conditions with the individual information, the combination of the stored mission conditions and the individual information, the total information of the individual information corresponding to the mission conditions, and the like are handled as mission information.

  When the game hall management device 30 determines that the mission is achieved, the information display device 41 displays an achievement screen and the individual information is transmitted to the data server device 2. In the case of a game in which the membership card is not presented, if the two-dimensional code displayed by the information display device 41 is imaged by the portable terminal 5 and accessed to the data server device 2 to transmit the information ID, it is during an individual period. You can also check individual information on the website and grasp the achievement status of the mission.

  In the game hall system 1 of the present example, the information display device 41 displays the two-dimensional code indicating the information ID a plurality of times when the mission is completed and when the game is completed, so information corresponding to the same individual information is displayed. The ID can be transmitted from the portable terminal 5 a plurality of times. In this case, the information ID indicating the previously displayed information ID is preferentially associated with the individual information. In such a specification, the player who has achieved the mission leaves the seat after that, and during that leave, the other player operates without permission to display the two-dimensional code (information ID), that is, the data, This is a specification for preventing the privilege according to the mission establishment, in other words, preventing the individual information from being associated with a player who is different from the player who played the game. Note that it is determined whether or not the portable ID of the portable terminal 5 has been identified by the data server device 2, and after the identification, the two-dimensional code indicating the information ID is not displayed on the information display device 41 (display) May be suppressed). In addition, information IDs other than when the mission is established depending on the establishment of the association condition for associating (displaying) the information ID established by performing a predetermined operation (continuous pressing of the pre-patch button) or the like during the individual period May be displayed, or the correspondence condition may include a mission condition or the end of an individual period.

Next, the operation of the information display device 41 will be described with reference to FIG.
In the game hall system 1 of this example, a game period that is an individual period is started in accordance with the operation shown in FIG. 3 (FIG. 3A). In the information display device 41, the game information of the individual period is totaled and specified as individual information and displayed as “your data” (b and c in the figure).

  After the start of the game is specified as described above, when the “Purepachi” button 412A is pressed for a long time (for example, for 2 seconds), the end of the game is specified, and the game information for the game period is determined, A two-dimensional code (ID image) including an information ID which is identification information of the game information is displayed (c in the same figure). If the pre-patch button 412A is pressed for a long time after the start of the game is specified, the individual information can be confirmed as shown in (b).

  When the stand terminal 42 accepts the membership card, the acceptance period is specified as the individual period of the player (FIG. 3d). If the “Pure Pachi” button 412A is previously pressed and the start of the game is specified, and then a membership card is received, the membership card reception period from the long press of the preceding “Pure Pachi” button 412A It is sufficient to specify the period until the end of the game as an individual period. In this case, it is not necessary to specify the start of the game according to the insertion of the membership card.

  The two-dimensional code displayed by the information display device 41 includes an information ID, which is identification information that can specify game information for an individual period, and an address of a homepage (hereinafter, HP) operated by the data server device 2 that manages the individual information. , Is an encrypted code. If this two-dimensional code is imaged by the portable terminal 5, the HP of the data server device 2 can be referred to.

Next, the member registration screen of FIG. 4 displayed on the portable terminal 5 when the data server device 2 accesses the HP for the first time will be described.
FIG. 6A shows an input screen for player information displayed when accessing the HP for the first time with a mobile phone. If the player inputs his / her player information on this input screen and selects the registration button at the bottom, a registration confirmation screen shown in FIG. 6B is displayed, and a game described later with reference to FIG. It is possible to switch display to each person's own My Page screen. When browsing individual information, etc., it is only necessary that the mobile server ID and the information ID are associated with each other on the data server device 2 side, and it is not essential to input the player information on the input screen.

  When a plurality of membership cards are possessed, a plurality of membership cards can be registered by selecting an additional button arranged at the bottom of the input screen in FIG. FIG. 4B shows an example of registration of three membership cards. Note that the player information can be modified other than the input screen shown in FIG. Further, when accessing the HP, the portable ID of the portable terminal 5 and the ID information recorded in the two-dimensional code are transmitted to the data server device 2, and both are associated with each other in the data server device 2. Corresponding to the player information input using the input screen.

Next, player information managed by the data server device 2 for each player will be described with reference to FIG.
In the data server device 2, player information such as a card ID received at the time of member registration or the like is managed in association with the mobile ID. In this example, player information is managed for each portable ID. Therefore, a player who owns a plurality of membership cards is also managed as one unit of player information in the data server device 2.

  “Acquired points” in the player information in FIG. 5 indicates the number of points given in accordance with achievement of mission conditions (for example, conditions such as 10 big bonuses) set in advance for the game information. ing. This acquired point can be exchanged for a privilege such as data such as a character image of the gaming machine 40 or an effect sound source.

  Further, “title” in the player information indicates a title that can be acquired by the player in accordance with the achievement of the mission condition. The more difficult mission conditions are cleared, the more kinds of titles that can be selected, and the player can select a title of their choice.

  “Group name” is a group name to which the player belongs, and “Pachi tomo” is a list of mobile IDs of other players belonging to the group to which the player belongs. “Information ID” is identification information assigned to individual information. This “information ID” is identification information that is identified on the mobile terminal 5 side by imaging the two-dimensional code displayed by the information display device 41 and transmitted when accessing the HP.

  The configuration of this “information ID” is as follows. That is, the first 8 digits correspond to the end of the game period (two-dimensional code display time), the date (year), the next 4 digits are the time of transmission of individual data, and the next 6 digits are games. The place identification number (game room ID) is the last 4 digits of the machine number in the game room.

In this example, by comparing this information ID with the information ID of the game information transmitted from the game hall management device 30, the member's game information is specified and managed in association with the portable ID.
The game information is game information that can specify at least game information such as a jackpot history displayed on the HP, which will be described later. For example, sales (investment) amount and balance (sales amount-(sales medal-out + Any game information such as (safe) x exchange unit price) may be targeted.

Next, the user's own My Page screen in FIG. 6 and the game history screen in FIG. 7 displayed on the mobile terminal 5 when accessing the HP will be described.
On the my page screen of FIG. 6, a menu for moving to various pages, notifications from the system, and the like are displayed together with the latest game information of the player. When the game information corresponding to the mobile terminal 5 that has accessed the HP has not been received from the game hall management device 30, the data server device 2 says “There is game information that cannot be displayed yet. Please update the screen afterwards ", and inquire the game hall management device 30 for individual information corresponding to the received information ID.
In addition, when the individual information is stored in the data server device 2 after creating the individual information corresponding to the reception of the member card, a message indicating that the information is stored may be transmitted to the mail address of the member corresponding to the member card. good.

  The latest game information items in FIG. 6 will be supplementarily described. Next to the right of the date is a game end time or the like (specific time of information ID). The “game time” is a time corresponding to the game period, and is specified by a time difference between start and end or out. “Last issue” is the issue at the end of the game (safe-out, minus count is not performed). “Maximum appearance” is the highest value of appearance during the game period, and “Maximum continuation” is the maximum value of the number of consecutive resorts (see FIG. 7).

The menu buttons at the bottom of the My Page screen in FIG. 6 are as follows.
・ "Ranking": Moves to a page (screen) that displays the ranking of TOP10 etc. managed by the data server device 2 (number of jackpots, appearance, maximum continuation, etc.), and the player's own ranking etc. Menu button for.
"Mission": A button for switching to the mission list screen of FIG.
"Point exchange": A menu button for moving to a page for exchanging earned points and benefits (images, sounds, etc.).
・ "Hall Search": A menu button for entering a playground condition and moving to a page for searching a playground.
“Total record” and “Pachi tomo” in the menu will be described later.

  The game history screen of FIG. 7 shows a game history screen that is displayed when “game record” in the menu of FIG. 6 is selected. The game history screen displays game information, game history, and a game history, a game model, and a game number related to the latest game opportunity played by the player. When there are a plurality of pieces of game information, the game information is displayed after being appropriately added or individually counted. By selecting “Previous Game Record” and “Next Game Record” in the game history screen of FIG. 7, it is also possible to view the game records in order of game opportunity, such as before and after moving the table, different business days, or different game venues. is there. In addition, about the gaming machine 40 in game, it is good also displaying the game log | history in game periods other than the individual period of the player.

  Note that the latest game history items in FIG. 7 will be supplementarily described. “Time” indicates the number of occurrences for each occurrence of the special state (BB, RB, ART), and “Time” indicates the occurrence time. “Start” indicates the number of games at the time of occurrence, and “Renso” occurs in the state where the consecutive resort condition that is established when the next special state occurs within 100 games after the end of the special state The number of consecutive resorts that is the number of consecutive occurrences of the special state is shown. “Species” indicates the type of special state (B = BB, R = RB, A = ART, etc.), and “Acquire” indicates the number of acquired game media in the special state (also referred to as “safe-out” or “out of ball”). Show.

Next, the game history screens shown in FIGS. 8 to 10 displayed on the portable terminal 5 when the “total recording” menu such as the personal page screen of FIG. 6 is selected will be described.
FIG. 8 is a game history screen displayed in response to the selection of “total record” in FIG. The “total game information” on the game history screen is total information for which all the game information stored in the data server device 2 is the target of aggregation. “Latest game game day cumulative information” is total information for all game information on the latest game day played by the player. “Latest game playground total information” is total information for all game information in the latest game hall where the player played. “Latest game game model total information” is total information for all game information in the latest game model played by the player.

  When the “previous game (record, date, model)” menu is selected on the game history screen, a game history screen related to game information of the game opportunity before the target game opportunity (the day before if the game date, etc.) is displayed. Is displayed. When “next game (record, date, model)” is selected, the total value of the game information about the game information of the next game opportunity of the target game opportunity (the next game room where the game was played) Displayed on the game history screen. When “Go to game (day, place, model) game record” is selected, the game history screen as shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10 is switched and detailed game information is displayed.

  FIG. 9 is a game history screen displayed when the “to game day game record” menu in FIG. 8 is selected, and displays the total value of the game field units that played on the corresponding day. FIG. 10 is a game history screen that is displayed when the “Go to Game Hall Game Record” menu in FIG. 8 is selected, and displays the game history in units of game rooms played on that day. In the game history screens of FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, when “Previous Game Date”, “Previous Game Hall”, or the like is selected, the aggregation target is switched in the order of game play. In addition, when the “Go to game model game record” menu is selected, the total value of game information (change of game machine, game hall, game date, etc.) of game information in the latest game machine (not shown) is displayed. The “Machine machine game record” that is the page to be transferred to.

  Here, in the game history screen of FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, when a game hall name or a game machine name is selected, the “game hall game record” of FIG. 10 for the corresponding game hall or game machine name. Shift to the game history screen of "game machine game record". In addition, the “highest record” is a button for switching to a page that displays game information ranked by the number of jackpots, appearance, maximum continuation, etc. of the player's game information aggregated in units of player's gaming opportunities, “Store visit record” is a button for switching to a page displaying game information aggregated in units of game opportunities.

Next, a description will be given of the patty status screen of FIG. 11 and the other person's my page screen of FIG. 12 displayed on the portable terminal 5 after selection of the “patchimo” menu on the personal page screen of FIG.
11 is a page showing a list of other players who are registered as a group by a predetermined group registration and managed as shown in FIG. 5, and are identified by the latest game information of each player. The amusement hall and the game number to be played are displayed.

  The other person's my page screen of FIG. 12 is a screen displayed when any other player is selected in the situation screen of FIG. On the other person's My Page screen, game information is displayed in the same manner as the My Page screen of FIG. When the “game record”, “game total”, and “ranking” menus are selected from the menu on the other person's My Page screen in FIG. 12, the game history and game for other players as well as the player who is browsing It is possible to move to a page that displays totals and rankings. Note that it is preferable that each player can individually set whether or not to disclose data to group members. In this way, browsing of individual information of other players is allowed on condition that the player belongs to the same group, and browsing of individual information of other players not belonging to the same group is suppressed.

Next, screens displayed on the mobile terminal 5 regarding the mission will be described with reference to FIGS.
FIG. 13 is a mission list screen that is displayed when the “mission” menu is selected on the personal page screen of FIG. On this mission list screen, a list of missions that are effectively set on the data server device 2 is displayed, and the participation status of the corresponding player is displayed.

  When one of the missions is selected on this mission list screen, the mission detail screen of FIG. 14 is displayed. It is possible to select whether or not to participate on the mission detail screen on which the mission content and mission period are displayed. In the game hall system 1 of this example, it is possible to cancel the participating missions halfway. Even if the cancellation is made midway, the progress before the cancellation can be continued as it is when the user joins again.

  As shown in FIGS. 13 and 14, when setting mission conditions, each period can be set, and the conditions, acquisition points, acquisition titles, and the like can be set. These can be set on the data server device 2 side, and setting information for specifying the changed contents is transmitted to the game hall management device 30 at any time. Thereby, also in the game hall management apparatus 30, management of mission conditions is possible. Note that, on the mission detail screen of FIG. 14, only the latest mission condition that has been achieved displays the amusement hall and date and time that have been achieved.

  Furthermore, in the game hall system 1 of this example, it is also possible to display a list of achievement statuses of participating missions as shown in the mission status screen of FIG. In the mission list display in the figure, the achievement history is displayed in units of mission types. A mission that is displayed as “unachieved” in the list is a mission that has not achieved any mission conditions. If “Details” is selected, the total information at the time of achievement can be displayed for each mission.

  As described above, in the gaming hall system 1 of the present example, the two-dimensional code representing the information ID that is the identification information of the game information (individual information) of the game period (individual period) is the gaming machine 40 at the end of the game period. Displayed on the side. If the mobile terminal 5 captures the two-dimensional code and accesses the data server device 2, the game information associated with the corresponding information ID can be downloaded from the data server device 2 and viewed.

  In this game hall system 1, individual information that is personal game information of a player is managed in association with an information ID, and if the information ID is specified from the portable terminal 5 and accessed to the system side, the corresponding information is handled. Individual information to be downloaded can be viewed. It is only necessary to transmit an information ID between the gaming machine 40 side to be played and the portable terminal 5, and it is not necessary to exchange a large amount of game information. Furthermore, if the information ID is stored on the portable terminal 5 side, individual information can be browsed, so that it is not necessary to store a large amount of game information.

Note that the following configuration may be employed instead of the configuration of the present example.
In this example, while the function of the condition management means is provided in the game hall management device 30, the function of the mission setting means is provided in the data server device 2, but the condition management means and the mission setting means are on the game hall management device 30 side. Or may be provided on the data server device 2 side.

In the data server device 2 of the present example, for individual information (first individual information) that has not been accessed from the mobile terminal 5 and that has not been associated with an information ID (first individual information), a predetermined time (first 1 lapse period, which is set to within one week in this example) is erased when it has passed (first erasure condition).
On the other hand, the individual information (second individual information) that has been associated with the information ID according to the access from the mobile terminal 5 is stored for six months (second elapsed period), and thereafter It is deleted when half a year has passed from the time of creation of information (second deletion condition).

  Note that, among the individual information (second individual information) whose association with the information ID has already been identified in accordance with access from the mobile terminal 5 or the like, in particular, a maximum of 10 individual information designated by the holding operation by the player Information (retained individual information) may be excluded from being deleted. This holding operation may be an operation on the mobile terminal 5 or an operation on the registration terminal 33. The operation information that can specify the execution of the holding operation is transmitted from the portable terminal 5 or the registration terminal 33 where the holding operation is performed toward the data server device 2 and is received by the server receiving unit. In addition, the second deletion condition may not be set, and the individual information that has been associated with the information ID according to the access from the mobile terminal 5 may be configured not to be deleted.

  For the mission information, a third erasing condition different from the first individual information and the second individual information may be set. As the third erasing condition, it is preferable to set that an elapse period of 3 months or the like has elapsed since the creation time. For the second and third erase conditions, it is preferable to set a condition that is less likely to be established than the first erase condition. For example, if it is set as the erasure condition that a predetermined elapsed period has elapsed since the creation of the game information to be erased, the elapsed period corresponding to the second and third erasure conditions corresponds to the first erasure condition It is better to set longer than the elapsed time.

  When displaying the two-dimensional code (ID image) by the information display device 41, a message prompting access to the data server device 2 may be displayed. Such a message indicates that individual information will be erased early if the data server device 2 is not accessed by reading the two-dimensional code, or within one week if the data server device 2 is not accessed by reading the two-dimensional code. It is good to notify that the individual information will be deleted.

As shown in FIG. 3, the information ID is issued in response to the operation of the “Purepachi” button. However, the information ID is issued in advance, and the information ID and the identification information such as the time are set as the corresponding conditions such as the end operation. It may be made to correspond according to.
In this example, the configuration in which the information ID is transmitted from the mobile terminal 5 that has accessed the data server device 2, that is, the configuration in which the information ID is specified by the mobile terminal 5 is illustrated. The information ID can also be specified on the data server device 2 side by transmission or the like.
Further, as long as the personal information can be specified by comparing with the information ID, the portable information ID is not necessarily the same identification information as the information ID. For example, information that can be identified from the information ID can be assumed by adding K or the like to the end of the information ID.

The two-dimensional code is exemplified as the ID image displayed on the information display device 41. However, if the information can be read by the mobile terminal 5 and the information ID or the like can be specified, an image indicating a barcode or a numerical value indicating the information ID ID image may be any image.
Although it is possible to specify the date and time, the game hall, and the machine number as the information ID, it is sufficient that individual information can be specified as the information ID. For example, only the issue number may be specified. In this case, data attribute information that can specify the date and time and the machine number may be transmitted separately. That is, the information that can identify the gaming machine ID may be an information ID or data attribute information. The same applies to information that can specify the game start.

  This example is an example in which the HP of the data server device 2 can be browsed for the mobile terminal 5 that has transmitted the information ID. For example, if the person can be identified by inputting the site password shown in FIG. The browsing of the HP may be permitted by a terminal other than the mobile terminal 5 that has transmitted the information ID (for example, a personal computer).

Although a mobile phone (smartphone) is illustrated as the mobile terminal 5, the call function is not an essential requirement if a display function, an imaging function, a communication function to a public line, or the like is installed like a tablet PC. .
In this example, the card ID of the membership card is adopted as the player ID, but instead of this, it is possible to specify a player such as a mobile phone ID (for example, Felica IDM), fingerprint, face image, etc. Such identification information may be used as the player ID. In addition, the card ID reception period may be from a start operation (presentation of Felica, fingerprint, etc.) to an end operation (re-presentation).

In this example, the configuration in which the mobile terminal 5 transmits the information ID in response to the access to the data server device 2 is illustrated, but the information ID may be transmitted by operating the mobile terminal 5 separately during the access. .
When the information ID in the individual period is preferentially associated with the individual information over the end of the game, the information ID at the end of the game may be transmitted to the data server device 2 at an earlier timing. In this case, the association may be changed when the information ID during the individual period is subsequently transmitted. Whether it is at the end of the game or during the individual period may be specified directly by the information ID, but this is specified by specifying the order by issuing time, associated time, issuing number, etc. May be.

  In this example, the mobile information ID is managed in association with the mobile ID as shown in FIG. 5, and the individual information corresponding to the mobile ID is identified using the mobile information ID as a key. The association between the information ID transmitted from the 30 side and the individual information may be managed by associating the portable information ID with the individual information by specifying the portable information ID and managing the portable ID in association with the individual information. good.

  In this example, the reception of any one of the BB signal, the RB signal, and the ART signal is specified as the occurrence of the special state, and the non-input period is specified as the normal state. Instead of this example, a game state is detected by detecting a transition of a gaming state based on a change in a winning rate or a payout rate in a unit period, or a lighting state of a lamp that is turned on at the transition of a gaming state, etc. It is also possible to identify the gaming state of the gaming machine 40 by detecting the state transition.

  The target gaming machine may be a pachinko gaming machine in addition to the slot machine. When a pachinko gaming machine is the target, the game value is a ball, and the game is the number of actuating items such as symbol fluctuations according to winning in a specific winning opening. In addition, it may be a so-called encapsulated pachinko game machine that allows games with points without paying out game media, or a credit-type slot machine that allows games with points without using game media. Is considered as a game value including a game medium and a score.

  In this example, the Internet is illustrated as the public communication line 100.
