Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine that is installed and used in a game hall such as a pachinko parlor.

As a general pachinko game machine, what is called a digipachi is known.
In a pachinko gaming machine called a digipachi, a start winning opening is provided in a game area formed on a game board surface into which a game ball is driven and flows down, and based on the game ball winning in the start winning opening, In the control device on the internal main board side, a lottery of big hit and miss is performed, and when a big hit is made in the lottery, an attacker provided in the game area is released and a game ball state in which a game ball can be awarded to the attacker enters a big hit gaming state . In the jackpot game state, the player can basically acquire a large number of game balls.

  In addition, this lottery is notified to the player as a result of a variable display game displayed on a variable display device such as a liquid crystal display provided in the pachinko gaming machine. The variable display game, for example, displays a plurality of decorative symbols (for example, those obtained by digitizing numbers) as identification information in a plurality of display regions, and moves so as to sequentially switch the plurality of decorative symbols to each display region. After the variable display is performed, the decorative symbols are stopped and displayed in each display area, and the combination of the stopped decorative patterns is displayed as a predetermined combination, for example, the same decorative symbol is stopped and displayed in each display area. In the case of a win, the above-mentioned lottery jackpot will be notified. When the combination of the predetermined decorative symbols as described above is not displayed at the time of the stop display, the deviation is notified.

  In addition, there are two states with the probability of winning a jackpot in the lottery. There are a low probability state with a low probability of winning a jackpot and a high probability state with a probability of winning a jackpot about 10 times higher than the low probability state. Corresponding to such a configuration in which the probability varies, the high probability state is generally called a probability variation state, or a probability variation state for short.

  In addition, there are one case and two cases of starting prize opening, but at least one starting prize opening is in an open state where game balls are easy to win, and in a closed state where game balls are difficult to win or cannot win. Electric tulips (electrical chews) that vary from one to the other are provided. This electric chew is in an open state when it wins in a lottery different from the above jackpot lottery.

  Moreover, in the above-described probability change state, the lottery probability of opening the electric chew is also increased. In addition, a normal symbol (ordinary diagram) variable display game that informs the result of this electric Chu lottery is performed, but in the probabilistic state, the time of the regular diagram variable display game is shortened, and the standard map per unit time is displayed. The number of executions of the variable display game increases. Further, in the probability variation state, the opening time of the electric chew when it is a hit becomes longer, and the number of times of opening may further increase.

  As a result, in the probability variation state, the electric chew is in an electric chew support state (electric support state) that is frequently released for a long time, and the number of game balls received at the starting winning opening of the electric chew increases, and the above-mentioned jackpot lottery And the number of game balls (prize balls) to be paid out in response to winning of the game balls at the start winning opening increases.

  Therefore, in the probable state, the number of prize balls increases, so that the player can generate the next big hit without reducing the number of game balls (held balls) so much, so the number of game balls earned can be increased without fail. Can be made. Therefore, the player wants to be in a probable state. Whether or not to be in a promiscuous state is determined by lottery as the type of jackpot when the jackpot is won by the lottery described above. For example, the types of jackpots include at least a regular jackpot and a probabilistic jackpot. The lottery usually results in a big jackpot, the variable display game ends with a big jackpot and a jackpot gaming state is generated, and when the jackpot gaming state ends, the low probability state described above is entered.

In addition, the lottery results in a promising big hit, the variable display game ends with a big win and a jackpot gaming state is generated, and when the jackpot gaming state ends, the probable state is entered.
Such a jackpot type is generally notified to the player by a decorative symbol that is stopped and displayed at the end of the variable display game that is a jackpot. For example, when a number is used as a decorative symbol, if an even number of the same number is displayed as a jackpot stop symbol, the normal jackpot is reported, and an odd number of the same number is displayed as a jackpot stop symbol. In general, it is assumed that the probable jackpot is reported.

  When notifying that it is a promising big hit, instead of notifying with a decorative symbol that is displayed in a stopped state, after the variable display game hits a big win, an effect display that determines winning or losing is performed and this effect display is There is also a pachinko machine that notifies a promising jackpot when it wins.

  Also, for example, when the decorative symbol for notifying the probability variation jackpot is the above-mentioned odd numbered number, it seems that the even numbered numbered stop is temporarily displayed, and then the decorative symbol is variably displayed again as a re-lot. There is known a gaming machine that stops and displays an odd number of eyes after a while.

  In addition, even if it is a probable big hit, an exception that does not become an odd number of odds is set as the win pattern, and it is not notified that the probable big hit is made at the end of the variable display game. A pachinko game that notifies you of a promising big jackpot by displaying an effect display that shows that the normal hit is promoted to a promising big jackpot in the jackpot gaming state if it is an even numbered roll or if the re-lottery is not done The machine is known.

  During the jackpot game state, for example, the attacker opens 15 times (15 rounds), and a corresponding production is performed for each attacker release (round). A promising jackpot notification is given after the round is over (during the end of the jackpot).

The player has a great interest in whether or not the variable display game will be a big hit, and when it is decided that the big win will be decided, whether or not that interest will be a big hit from the big hit. become. Therefore, even if the probability change is not notified at the end of the variable display game, and the player is notified that the change is in the effect display during the jackpot gaming state, the player is notified of the probability change jackpot in the variable display game. Often rejoiced than when.
That is, it is possible to increase the player's interest in the game in the manner of notifying the probable big hit.

  In addition, it is known that various notifications other than the above-mentioned jackpot are performed by the stop display of the variable display game (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).

JP 2001-276348 A JP 2006-174925 A

  By the way, as described above, it is well known to general players that a promising big jackpot is notified by a combination of stop symbols at the end of a variable display game or a production display during production in a jackpot game state. Even if the person is glad that the probable jackpot has been notified, the person may not be interested in the effect of the probable jackpot notification.

That is, the player is demanding an effect display that has never been seen before, as the target of interest shifts to the new gaming machines that are announced sequentially.
However, it takes a certain amount of cost to develop a new effect display, and depending on the effect display, the hardware configuration for effect display of the pachinko gaming machine may be affected, which may increase the cost. For example, when 3D display is incorporated in the effect display, 3D display hardware is required and the cost increases.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and it is possible to more effectively notify the occurrence of an advantageous state that is more advantageous to the player, such as a probable big hit, without incurring costs, and to increase the player's interest. An object is to provide a game machine that can be attracted.

The gaming machine according to claim 1, wherein a gaming board having a gaming area in which a launched game ball flows down;
A special variable winning device that is provided on the gaming board and varies between an open state in which a game ball is easy to win and a closed state in which a game ball cannot win;
Display means for displaying a variable display game for stopping and displaying a plurality of symbols after a plurality of types of symbols are displayed in a variable manner;
Lottery means for performing a lottery for winning or losing the variable display game;
Based on the lottery result of winning or losing the lottery means, the display means displays the variable display game, and at the end of the variable display game, the symbol is stopped with a winning pattern corresponding to the winning lottery result. Display control means for performing display control to display or to stop display the symbol in a pattern that corresponds to a loss of the lottery result,
When the symbol that becomes the winning pattern is stopped and displayed on the display unit from the normal gaming state in which the display unit is sequentially displaying the variable display game satisfying a predetermined start condition. In addition, when the jackpot gaming state that allows the game ball to be won by opening the special variable winning device is generated, and when the jackpot gaming state is ended, the normal state and the normal state as the normal gaming state Game state control means for generating any one of advantageous states more advantageous to the player,
The lottery means, as the winning lottery result, the normal gaming state started after the jackpot gaming state, the normal winning that becomes the normal state, or the advantageous winning that becomes the advantageous state, lottery,
The display control means performs display control for displaying a winning game effect display for producing the jackpot gaming state on the display means, and the variation first started in the normal gaming state after the jackpot gaming state ends. As a display at the start of the display game, the symbol of the winning pattern of the variable display game when the jackpot gaming state occurs is stopped and displayed,
And when the lottery result by said selecting means of said variable display games per Advantageously the, Bei give a favorable per informing means for informing the occurrence per the advantage,
The gaming state control means outputs a game start command to the display control means when the start condition of the variable display game is satisfied, and closes the special variable winning device at the end of the jackpot gaming state. In a gaming machine that outputs a jackpot end command to end the game effect display ,
The advantageous hit notification means displays the symbol corresponding to the normal hit during the jackpot gaming state,
In addition, after the jackpot end command is output from the gaming state control means to the display control means, the game start command is output and until the first variable display game starts to be displayed after the jackpot gaming state ends. The display means is displayed by changing the type of at least one of the symbols of the winning pattern that is stopped and displayed on the display means, and the symbol that has been changed and displayed is displayed after the end of the jackpot gaming state. A variation is started by using as a display at the start of the variation display game first started in a normal gaming state.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, after the winning pattern is stopped and displayed in the variable display game, the jackpot gaming state is started on the display means. In the display means, a jackpot effect display for rendering the jackpot game state is performed during the jackpot game state.
Next, when the jackpot gaming state is ended, the symbol of the winning pattern when the variable display game before the jackpot gaming state ends from the jackpot effect display is stopped and displayed as a variable display game from here. When the display shifts from the displayed symbol to the symbol variably displayed, the variation display game is started.

  In this case, if the winning that has generated the jackpot gaming state is an advantageous winning (for example, a probable winning), before shifting from the symbol stopped and displayed in the winning pattern to the symbol variation display, When at least one of them is changed to a different type of symbol, it is notified that the winning is an advantageous hit. That is, immediately before the start of the first variable display game started after the jackpot gaming state by changing the pattern of the previous variable display game stopped and displayed immediately before the start of the variable display game started after the end of the jackpot gaming state It is notified that it was an advantageous hit.

  In general, when the game is probable after the jackpot game state, at the start of the variable display game, the probabilistic state is notified by, for example, the effect of the LED on the game board or the glass door, music or sound effect output from the speaker, and The player will know that the state has been reached, but an advantageous win will be notified immediately before that. Therefore, the player is informed that the advantageous hit has occurred immediately before the advantageous state is started by the occurrence of the advantageous hit. That is, notification that the advantageous state occurs is performed immediately before the advantageous state occurs, and the notification of the advantageous state is performed latest with respect to the start of the advantageous state. As a result, the player remains interested in whether or not it is a win-win state, the jackpot game state ends, and immediately before the first variable display game is started, that is, immediately before the start of the win-win state. It will be waited for a favorable hit notification. The player's interest is enhanced by notifying the advantageous state after waiting for a long time.

In addition, when the probability of jackpot is low and when a short time state for generating an electric support state is provided, it is possible to distinguish between a probable state (advantageous state) and a short time state (normal state) by LED or sound production. However, in this case, it is possible to know that it is not the time saving but the start of probability change by the above-mentioned advantageous hit notification.
In addition, when the big hit gaming state is short per two rounds such as per win or per hit, the number of holds after the big hit gaming state is 0, and the variable display game may not start at the end of the big hit gaming state However, in this case, for example, the advantageous hit may not be notified.

  According to the present invention, for example, a notification per probability change as an advantageous hit is delayed until immediately before the occurrence of the advantageous state (probability changed state), and the player's interest in whether or not the advantageous state is reached is extended. Can be increased.

The main control device 14 as the game state control means displays the first special figure game or the second special figure game which shows either of the big hits or the big hits in sequence, based on the occurrence of the probability change big hit or the like. The probability that the first special figure game and the second special figure game are jackpots by the lottery process is set to a high probability state that is higher than the low probability state, and the first special figure game and the second one are obtained by the lottery process based on the occurrence of the normal jackpot. Control is performed such that the probability that the special figure game is a big hit is a low probability state lower than the high probability state. In addition, the main control device 14 performs control to set the short time state (electricity support state) where the opening time (number of times of opening) per unit time of the normally variable winning device is larger than the normal state based on the occurrence of a predetermined jackpot. Do. Note that, in the probability variation state (high probability support state), the state becomes basically a high probability state and the electric chew support state, and in the short time state (support state), the electric chew support state becomes a low probability state.

  In addition, the symbol control device 23 as the variable display game display control means of the sub-control unit 16 controls the variable display device 3 and the general graphic display device (LED display device) 8, and the variable display device 3 The video display processor 35 is connected. The variable display device 3 for the variable display game of the decorative symbols is displayed by the symbol control device 23 as the notification effect control means on the basis of each jackpot and loss determined by the main control device 14 and the variation display time as the variation pattern. The display at is controlled. In addition, the symbol control device 23 controls the display of the special figure reservation number mark in the special figure reservation number display area 31 of the variable display device 3 based on the calculated special figure reservation number in the main control device 14. In addition, the symbol control device 23 receives an external input signal from the button switch 23a when the player or the like operates the button switch 23a provided on the front frame or the like that supports the gaming board 1 of the pachinko gaming machine. It has become.

  The lamp control device 24 of the sub-control unit 16 is provided on the front frame that supports the board-related electrical decoration (light source such as LED) 24a provided on the board surface of the game board 1 and the game board 1 of the pachinko gaming machine, A frame door-related electrical decoration (light source such as an LED) 24b such as a glass frame covering the front surface of the game board 1 is connected to control an effect produced by an LED, a lamp, or the like. The lamp control device 24 is connected with a general-purpose hold number display lamp 9.

  The sound control device 25 is connected to a sound generation device 25a including a sound processor, an amplifier, a speaker, and the like, and the sound control device 25 controls output of effect sound, sound, music, and the like for production.

  In the main control device 14, when the first start winning signal is input as described above or when the second starting winning signal is input, the random number acquisition process is performed. The main control device 14 serving as a random number generation means generates a random number (pseudorandom number) composed of numerical values within a predetermined range. For example, it counts up from 0 to a predetermined number at a high speed, and when it reaches the predetermined number, it performs a process of setting it to 0 again, and this numerical value is set as a pseudo-random number. When generating random numbers, processing that disturbs the periodicity of periodic pseudorandom numbers may be added. Further, a random number generating means may be provided separately from the main controller 14.

  The main controller 14 as a random number acquisition means acquires a random number generated when the start winning signals are input from the first and second start winning ball detection sensors 53a and 53b. When the start winning signal is input, a random number is acquired if the corresponding special figure hold number (the number of stored random numbers of each set of three) is less than the upper limit. If the number is the upper limit, no random number is acquired.

  Further, the main control device 14 as a random number storage means stores the random number acquired as described above in the RAM 14c, the start condition of the variable display game corresponding to the random number is established, and the lottery process using the stored random number is performed. If the random number is erased, the random number is erased on the assumption that the random number erasure condition is satisfied. At this time, one special figure holding number is subtracted.

  The main control device 14 as the lottery means uses the first and second special random numbers (the winning determination random number, the design random number, and the production random number) using three random numbers obtained as described above when the special figure game is started. A lottery process for displaying a figure game is performed. In the lottery process, first, as the success / failure lottery process, the hit determination random number is compared with the hit determination value registered in the set hit determination table (low probability determination table or high probability determination table). The ROM 14b of the main controller 14 stores a hit determination table.

  The winning judgment value is a numerical value determined in advance from a numerical value (integer) in a predetermined range that is a winning determination random number, and the big hit probability is (number of winning determination values) / (a predetermined range of numerical values that is a winning determination random number) (Number of all integers). In addition, the hit determination value includes a hit determination value registered in the normal low probability determination table in which the hit probability is low probability, and a hit determination value registered in the high probability determination table at the time of high probability after probability variation big hit For example, the number of hit determination values at high probability is about 10 times the number of hit determination values at normal time (low probability). Thereby, the jackpot probability at the time of high probability is about 10 times that at the time of low probability.

When the acquired value of the hit determination random number and the hit determination value match, it becomes a big hit, and when it does not match, it becomes a deviation.
Whether the low probability determination table or the high probability determination table is used is determined by main controller 14 depending on whether the probability state controlled as described above is a high probability state or a low probability state.

  Following the success / failure determination process, a stop symbol lottery process is performed. The symbol random number determines the type of stop symbol (special symbol) to be stopped and displayed on the first and second special symbol indicators 4a and 4b. In the case of jackpots, multiple types of special charts are set for each jackpot type, for example, regular jackpots and probability variation jackpots, and the special chart associated with the design random number is selected. .

  For example, a stop symbol determination table in the case where the special symbol game is a big hit is stored in the ROM 14b of the main controller 14, and in the stop symbol determination table, stop symbol determination values corresponding to the respective stop symbols are registered. For example, if the acquired symbol random number is in the numerical range of 0-255, there are usually 4 types of jackpot symbols, 4 types of probability variation jackpot symbols, and if there are 8 types of symbols in total, all symbols When 32 determination values are assigned in the range of 0 to 255, one of the determination values matches the design random number, and the stop design to which the determination value that matches the design random number is assigned is selected and stopped. It will be. As a result, the type of jackpot corresponding to the stop symbol is determined.

  For example, when the stop symbol corresponding to the normal jackpot is symbol 1 to symbol 4, and the stop symbol corresponding to the probability variation jackpot (advantageous jackpot) is symbol 5 to symbol 8, a determination value of 0 to 31 is assigned to symbol 1; Symbol 2 is assigned a judgment value of 32 to 63, Symbol 3 is assigned a judgment value of 64 to 95, Symbol 4 is assigned a judgment value of 96 to 127, Symbol 5 is assigned a judgment value of 128 to 159, Symbol 6 160 to 191 are assigned, symbol 7 is assigned a decision value 192 to 223, and symbol 8 is assigned a decision value 224 to 255. In this case, for example, if the design random number is 97, the design 4 is selected and a normal jackpot, and if the design random number is 200, the design 7 is selected and the probability variation jackpot is obtained.

In addition, the lottery probability selected as a stop symbol can be varied by changing the number of determination values assigned to each special figure. The lottery probability can be obtained using the number of all integers included in the range of numerical values to be random numbers as the denominator and the number of determination values assigned to each stop symbol as the numerator.
In addition, in the jackpot stop symbol (special chart), there are special jackpots corresponding to the type of jackpot set in each pachinko machine, such as a sudden jackpot or a latent jackpot, in addition to a normal jackpot or a probable jackpot .
As described above, the type of jackpot, such as whether it is a normal jackpot or a probabilistic jackpot, is determined by a symbol random number in the case of a jackpot. The combination of stop symbols made up of a plurality of decorative symbols of the variable display game is determined in accordance with the type of jackpot determined by the above-described symbol random number.

After the stop symbol lottery process, a variation pattern lottery process is performed.
The above-mentioned production random number determines the fluctuation pattern including the display time of the special figure game. In the case of out of reach, whether or not the reach is reached, and in the case of reach, the normal reach is short or the display time is It is what determines whether it will be a long super reach or premium reach. In the case of a big win, the reach is determined, and the type of reach production such as normal reach or super reach is determined. The main controller 14 as the variation pattern selection means, when selecting the variation pattern, performs lottery according to a variation pattern determination table composed of a combination of a plurality of variation patterns and a lottery probability set for each type of loss or jackpot, Select a variation pattern.

  The variation pattern determination table includes, for example, a jackpot and a loss pattern, and is stored in the ROM 14b. In each variation pattern determination table, a determination value is assigned to each variation pattern, as in the above-described stop symbol determination table, and the lottery probability is determined by the number of determination values allocated to each variation pattern. Each judgment value is an integer included in the range of numerical values that will be the production random numbers, and the lottery probability is a judgment assigned to each variation pattern with the number of all integers included in the range of numerical values that will be the production random numbers as the denominator. It is a numerical value with the number of values as a numerator.

  When the variation pattern is a reach variation pattern, basically the same variation pattern or substantially the same variation pattern is registered in the variation pattern determination table for deviation and the variation pattern determination table for jackpot. Note that the fluctuation pattern registered only in the deviation fluctuation pattern determination table is always a deviation pattern when displayed, and the fluctuation expectation value is 0. For example, the fluctuation pattern does not reach. Further, the fluctuation pattern registered only in the jackpot fluctuation pattern determination table becomes a premium reach fluctuation pattern with an expected value of 100% which is always a big hit when displayed.

When basically the same or almost the same variation pattern is registered in both the jackpot variation pattern determination table and the deviation variation pattern determination table, the variation pattern is determined by the lottery probability in each variation pattern determination table. The expected value (reliability) when displayed is determined. A pattern with a higher lottery probability in the jackpot judgment table than a judgment table for a relative loss results in a fluctuation pattern with a high expected value, and a pattern with a higher lottery probability in the judgment table for a relative loss than a jackpot judgment table is expected. The fluctuation pattern has a low value.
Note that the expected value is determined when the above-described variation pattern table is created.

  Reach is a state in which some decorative symbols that are displayed in a stopped state are confirmed and some are still displayed in a variable state in a variable display game. In the case where three decorative symbols are displayed, two decorative symbols are stopped and displayed, and there is a possibility of a big hit at the stage where one decorative symbol is still variably displayed. In other words, the reach is a state in which the possibility of winning the game remains without determining the loss until immediately before the variable display game is stopped and displayed to notify the jackpot or loss.

The display contents of the special figure game are determined based on the above-mentioned three random numbers, and the first and second special figure games are played according to the display contents.
In addition, the main control device 14 transmits information based on these lottery determination information (including whether or not, stop symbol, and variation pattern) to the symbol control device 23 together with the start command when the above-described variation display game start condition is established. Is done.

  That is, when starting the first special figure game or the second special figure game, the main control device 14 makes the symbol control device 23 receive the data indicating the success / failure, the fluctuation pattern data, based on the lottery result described above. The jackpot type data in the case of jackpot is transmitted, and a start command indicating the start of the variable display game is transmitted.

Based on this start command, the display control of the decorative symbol variable display game in the variable display device 3 is performed by the symbol control device 23 of the sub-control unit 16.
Basically, the variation display game is displayed based on the selected variation pattern, and after the variation display time of the variation display game has elapsed, the decorative symbols are stopped and displayed in a predetermined combination. At this time, in the case of a loss, a plurality of decorative symbols that are a combination of the loss are stopped and displayed, and in the case of a big hit, a plurality of decorative symbols indicating a big hit are stopped and displayed.

  As described later, it is possible to display a decorative pattern of a pattern indicating a jackpot type here, but here, as a type of jackpot, for example, a pattern decoration that does not show a difference between a normal jackpot and a probable jackpot Display the symbol. For example, when the decorative design is a number, the even number of eyes is not necessarily a big hit, and the number of odd numbers is not a big success. There is something to be.

  Further, when the first special game or the second special game ends, the main control device 14 transmits an end command indicating the end of the variable display game to the sub-control unit 16, whereby the symbol control device 23 The variable display game is finished. At this stage, a decorative symbol indicating a big hit or miss is stopped and displayed.

The main controller 14 generates a jackpot gaming state when the variable display game is a jackpot, and opens and closes the special variable winning device 6 as described above. Also at this time, the main controller 14 transmits a jackpot gaming state start command and a jackpot gaming state end command to the sub-control unit 16. Correspondingly, the symbol control device 23 of the sub-control unit 16 performs a win game effect display for producing a big win game state.

  Note that the jackpot gaming state start command is output before the special variable winning device 6 is released in the first round, and the winning game effect display is started before the special variable winning device 6 is released in the first round. The jackpot gaming state end command is output after the special variable winning device is closed in the final round, and the special game winning display is ended after the special variable winning device 6 is closed in the final round.

  Next, based on the timing chart shown in FIG. 3 and the display of the variable display device 3 shown in FIG. 4, the progress of the variable display game and the probability variable big hit as an advantageous hit in the variable display game are generated. When the state in the state (the state that is not the jackpot gaming state) is not the normal state but the probability variation state (advantageous state), the processing of the probability variation jackpot notification by the symbol control device as the advantage winning notification means will be described.

  In the main control device, the first special game or the second special game (in the following processing, there is no problem in explanation whether it is the first special game or the second special game, When one of the starting conditions of the game is satisfied, the big hit or miss, the jackpot type (probable big hit or normal jackpot), and the variation pattern are determined using the random numbers acquired as described above. Then, information such as success / failure, jackpot type, variation pattern, and the like, and a start command are output, and a special game is started.

  In addition, the fluctuation in the special figure game is stopped at the time based on the fluctuation pattern determined by the lottery, and the special figure determined by the lottery is stopped and displayed on the special figure indicators 4a and 4b. After finishing the special game. At this time, a change display game end command is output to the sub-control unit 16. Here, the special figure game is assumed to be a probable jackpot, and the special figure for the probable jackpot is displayed. However, only a player who knows a special figure for multiple probability jackpots knows that it is a jackpot jackpot.

  The symbol control device 23 of the sub-control unit 16 starts the variation display game corresponding to the above-described success / failure and variation pattern in accordance with the variation display game start command. That is, from the state of the decorative pattern of, for example, the off-line pattern that was stopped and displayed in the previous variation display game as shown in the display screen a in FIG. 4, each decorative design is displayed on the right, middle, and left as shown in the display screen b. In the three display areas, the display is moved from the top to the bottom to display the state in which the type of decorative design displayed is changed.

After the decorative design is variably displayed from the main controller 14 based on the variation pattern, the decorative design is stopped and displayed as shown in the display screen c, and the variation is caused by the input of the end command of the variation display game from the main controller 14. End the display game.
The result of the variable display game at this time is a probable change big hit, but in the stop display of the variable display game, the type of the big win is not notified, and the blue eyes, for example, the black squares in FIG. In this case, there is a possibility of a promising big hit regardless of whether it is an even number or an odd number, so that only the big hit is notified.

  The main controller 14 generates a jackpot gaming state in which the special variable winning device is opened and closed for each round on the basis of the fact that the special figure game has ended with the probability variation jackpot. A command indicating the start of the jackpot gaming state is transmitted. Next, the special variation solenoid 64 of the special variation winning device 6 is controlled to generate a jackpot gaming state in which the special variation winning device 6 is opened and closed.

  In addition, after the opening / closing of the special variable winning device 6 for a predetermined number of rounds is completed, an end command indicating the end of the jackpot gaming state is output to the sub-control unit 16.

In response to the input of the command indicating the start of the jackpot gaming state, the symbol control device 23 of the sub-control unit 16 displays a winning effect display that is an effect display during the jackpot gaming state as shown in the display screen d of FIG. Start.
After the final round of the special variable winning device 6 is finished, the effect display corresponding to the above jackpot gaming state is finished, and the end effect display for producing the end of the jackpot gaming state is performed as shown in the display screen e. Based on the jackpot gaming state end command output from the main controller 14, the winning game effect display is terminated as shown on the display screen e.

  Next, in the main control device, the next special figure game is started based on the number of special figure holds that is usually 1 or more in the winning prize opening 52, 54 in the jackpot gaming state. . Also at this time, the above-described success / failure information and the start command of the variable display game are output.

At this time, in the symbol control device of the sub-control unit 16, the display of the decorative symbol pattern in which the variable display game that was the previous jackpot is stopped is displayed based on the end of the winning game effect display. The same type of decorative design as a pattern is displayed again on the display screen f. The display screen f here is the same 6th display as the display screen c described above. From this state, based on the input of the start command for the variable display game, the variable display of the next variable display game is started. In this example, the result of the previous variable display game is Probability notification effect display for notifying that there is is performed.

  In this embodiment, the probability change notification effect display is performed from the input of the jackpot gaming state end command to immediately before the start of the variation of the first variation display game after the jackpot gaming state. Note that the variable display game start command is input from the main control device immediately before the start of the change, and the probability change notification effect display ends at the timing from the input of the change display game start command to the start of the change display. .

In this embodiment, when the winning game effect display is finished and the previous jackpot stop symbol is displayed on the display screen f as described above, for example, at least one symbol of three symbols, here The decorative design of the display area among the left, middle and right display areas is changed. For example, as shown in the display screen h from the display screen f in FIG. Here, the display is changed from 6 to 7.
Immediately before the start of the first variation display game after the end of the jackpot gaming state, changing one of the decorative symbols displayed as the big hit pattern of the previous variation display game is a notification of the probability variation jackpot .

Here, when the next variable display game is started in a state where one decorative symbol is changed and displayed, the stopped decorative symbol is displayed in a variable manner as shown in the display screen i. Thus, the probability change notification effect display ends. Further, when the variation display game in the probability variation state is started, lighting or extinguishing of the lighting (LED) 24a, 24b controlled by the lamp control device 24 of the sub-control unit 16 is for the probability variation state different from the normal state. Turns on or off.

  In other words, the lamp control device 24 makes the control of the LED emission color different from the lighting and extinction of the LED in the normal state and the probable change state in the effect by the LED during the variation display game. Further, music and sound effects by the voice control device 25 are also different between the normal state and the probability variation state. From these things, the player can know that it has become a probable change state due to differences in how the LEDs shine, sound effects, and the like.

  In such a pachinko gaming machine, the probability change notification display on the variable display device 3 is performed immediately before the probability change state is actually started, and the player is the last minute the probability change state is started. Until the timing, the game is played without knowing whether or not it will be in a probable state. That is, when the jackpot type indicated by the special figure stopped and displayed by the special figure indicators 4a and 4b is not known, the player is not notified that the probability change state will occur until just before the probability change state occurs. As a result, when the probability variation state occurs, the player plays the game with a sense of expectation that the probability variation state may occur just before the probability variation state occurs. Therefore, it is possible to obtain greater joy when the probability change jackpot is actually notified.

  Conventionally, during the time period from the end of the hit game effect display that produces the jackpot game state to the start of the change display of the first variable display game, some notification effect is performed other than the end of the jackpot game state or the start of the variable display game Therefore, it is possible to provide a novel notification effect for the player. In addition, it is possible to make a notification by a simple process of only the display process for changing the decorative pattern in the stop display of the decorative pattern that is displayed in the above-mentioned time zone. Costs can be prevented from increasing.

In the above example, in the case of a probable big jackpot, one of the three decorative symbols that are stopped and displayed before the start of the first variable display game after the jackpot gaming state is changed. The number of decorative symbols to be changed is not limited to one, and all the decorative symbols that are stopped and displayed may be changed, or a plurality of decorative symbols may be changed at a time.
Further, for example, when changing one decorative design, the decorative design of the left display region or the decorative design of the right display region may be changed instead of the decorative design of the middle display region.

  Also, in this example, only when a probability variation jackpot occurs, the decorative symbol that is stopped and displayed before the start of the next variable display game is changed, and the probability variation jackpot is notified only by changing the decoration symbol. However, the decorative design may be changed even if it is a normal hit. In this case, for example, when the decorative symbol is a number, if the decorative symbol is changed to an odd number (even number), it is assumed that the probability change jackpot has been notified, and the decorative symbol is changed to an even number (odd number). It is assumed that a normal jackpot is reported.

  In addition, it will be decided whether or not to change the decorative design by lottery in the case of probability variation and in case of normal variation, respectively, and in the case of probability variation more than in the case of normal variation If the lottery probability of changing the decorative design is increased and the decorative design is changed, for example, it is possible to make a probable big hit with a probability of about 70%.

  In this case, for example, in the case where the decorative symbol is a number from 1 to 9, the probability of the probable big hit may be higher as the value of the decorative symbol after the change is higher. In this case, for example, the decorative pattern (number) after the change is determined by lottery, and the lottery probability for determining whether or not to change the decorative symbol in the case of the probable big hit and the normal jackpot by the determined decorative symbol In this case, by changing the lottery probability as to whether or not to change the decorative design, the probability of a probable big hit for each decorative design (number) may be changed.

  Also, the probability variation jackpot notification method of this embodiment and the conventional probability variation jackpot notification method may be combined to notify the probability variation jackpot. That is, it is notified that the decorative symbol that is stopped and displayed at the end of the variable display game is a probable big hit in the case of an odd number of eyes as in the conventional case. In this case, after the even-numbered eyes are stopped and displayed first, the odd-numbered faces are stopped and displayed in the re-drawing effect, so that the effect display that promotes to the probable big hit may be performed.

In addition, when this re-lottery effect is not performed, or even when the re-lottery effect is performed and an even number of decorative symbols are displayed in a glance, a promotion effect display is displayed during the win game effect display in the jackpot game state Is performed, the probability variation jackpot is notified.
Further, when the promotion effect is not performed during the winning game display and the probability variation jackpot is not notified, the decoration that is stopped and displayed immediately before the next variable display game after the jackpot gaming state is started as described above. A probable change jackpot may be notified by changing the symbol.

  In this case, the player is not notified of the probability change at the end of the variable display game, is not notified of the promotion to the probability change even in the re-lottery, and is not notified of the promotion to the probability change even in the effect display of the jackpot gaming state. Regardless, there is a case where the probability change is notified immediately before the start of the next variation display game, so that the game can be more interesting. The effect display during the jackpot gaming state is continued for a short time after the special floating prize apparatus 6 is closed in the last round, and the promotion effect is performed after the final round is closed. However, the probability change notification of this embodiment is performed in a later time zone.

  With such a configuration, the jackpot gaming state between them is included from the end of the variation display game that becomes a probable variation jackpot to the start of the next variation display game. It becomes possible to notify the probability change in any one of the long periods, and the effects for notifying the probability change can be made more diverse than before.

  Also, in this embodiment, the advantageous state of the present invention has been changed to a probabilistic state. For example, when there is a short time (electric support state) and when there is no short time, there is a short time, and there is no short time. May be in a normal state. In addition, when there are 15 cases and 100 cases after the jackpot gaming state where the number of variable display games with time savings is 100, 100 cases may be an advantageous state, and 15 cases may be a normal state.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment which applied the invention made by this inventor was described, this invention is not limited by the description and drawing which make a part of indication of this invention by this embodiment. That is, it should be added that other embodiments, examples, operation techniques, and the like made by those skilled in the art based on this embodiment are all included in the scope of the present invention.
