  Interrupts controlled by the reset / interrupt controller 506 include a non-maskable interrupt NMI and a maskable interrupt INT. The non-maskable interrupt NMI is an interrupt that is unconditionally accepted even in the interrupt disabled state of the CPU 41a, and is an interrupt that is generated when a low level signal is input to the external non-maskable interrupt terminal XNMI (also used as the input port PI6) for a certain period. is there. The maskable interrupt INT is an interrupt that can permit / prohibit acceptance of an interrupt request by a setting instruction of the CPU 41a, and multiple interrupts can be executed by setting priority. The cause of the maskable interrupt INT is that a low level signal is input to the external maskable interrupt terminal XINT (also used as the input port PI5) for a certain period, a time-out occurs in the timer circuit 509, the serial communication circuit 512 Multiple types of interrupt factors may be determined in advance, such as the occurrence of an interrupt factor due to data reception or data transmission, or the occurrence of an interrupt factor due to the acquisition of numeric data that is a random value in the random number circuits 508a and 508b. It ’s fine.

  The CPU 41a is a control CPU that executes game control in the slot machine 1 by executing a user program (game control processing program for game control) based on the control code read from the ROM 41b.

  The ROM 41b stores a control code indicating a user program (game control processing program for game control), fixed data, and the like.

  The RAM 41c provides a work area for game control. Here, at least a part of the RAM 41c may be a backup RAM backed up by a backup power source. That is, even if the power supply to the slot machine 1 is stopped, at least a part of the contents of the RAM 41c is stored for a predetermined period.

  As the free-run counter circuit 507, four channels of 8-bit free-run counters are mounted.

  The random number circuits 508a and 508b are circuits that generate numerical data that is a random value having a predetermined update range, such as an 8-bit random number or a 16-bit random number. In this embodiment, the hardware random number generated by the 16-bit random number circuit 508b out of the random number circuits 508a and 508b is used as a random number for internal lottery described later. Further, the 8-bit random number circuit 508a and the 16-bit random number circuit 508b each include four circuits of channels RL0 to RL3 that generate separate random numbers. The CPU 41a is used for games by processing or updating various numerical data by software using a random counter different from the random number circuits 508a and 508b based on the numerical data extracted from the random number circuits 508a and 508b. Numerical data indicating all or part of the random number value may be counted. Alternatively, the CPU 41a may count (update) a part of numerical data indicating a random value such as a big hit determination random number by software without using the random number circuits 508a and 508b. As an example, numerical data indicating random numbers for internal lottery is updated by processing numerical data extracted by the CPU 41a from random number circuits 508a and 508b serving as hardware, and numerical data indicating other random values. The CPU 41a may be updated by software using a random counter or the like.

  The timer circuit 509 is an 8-bit programmable timer, and the main control unit 41 includes three channels of 8-bit counters as the timer circuit 509. In this embodiment, it is possible to perform a real-time interrupt request and time measurement by using a timer circuit 509 and setting by a user program.

  The interrupt controller 510 is a circuit that controls an external interrupt request from the PI5 / XINT terminal and an interrupt request from a built-in peripheral circuit (for example, serial communication circuit 512, random number circuits 508a and 508b, timer circuit 509).

  The parallel input port 511 incorporates an 8-bit wide input-only port (PIP). Further, the parallel output port 513 provided in the main control unit 41 shown in FIG. 5 incorporates an output-only port (POP) having an 11-bit width.

  The serial communication circuit 512 is a circuit that performs asynchronous serial communication in input / output with respect to the outside. The main control unit 41 includes, as the serial communication circuit 512, a 1-channel circuit for both transmission and reception and a 3-channel circuit for transmission only.

  The address decoding circuit 514 is a circuit for decoding each functional block in the main control unit 41 and a chip select signal that is a decoding signal for an external device. In response to the chip select signal, the internal circuit of the main control unit 41 or the external device serving as a peripheral device is selectively operated effectively and can be accessed from the CPU 41a.

  In this embodiment, the main control unit 41 transmits various commands to the sub control unit 91 via the parallel output port 513. A command transmitted from the main control unit 41 to the sub control unit 91 is sent in only one direction, and no command is sent from the sub control unit 91 toward the main control unit 41. In this embodiment, the command is transmitted to the sub-control unit 91 via the parallel output port 513, that is, the command is transmitted as a parallel signal, but via the serial communication circuit 512. A configuration in which a command is transmitted to the sub-control unit 91, that is, a configuration in which the command is transmitted as a serial signal may be employed.

  The main control unit 41 also receives detection states of various switches connected to the game control board 40 from the parallel input port 511. The main control unit 41 executes basic processing that shifts in stages according to the detection states of various switches input from the parallel input port 511.

  Further, the main control unit 41 can execute an interrupt process by interrupting the basic process when an interrupt occurs. In this embodiment, a timer interrupt process (main), which will be described later, is executed every time a time-out occurs in the timer circuit 509, that is, every fixed time interval (about 0.56 ms in this embodiment).

  The main control unit 41 is set to prohibit other interrupts during the execution of the interrupt process, and when a plurality of interrupts occur at the same time, the main control unit 41 prioritizes according to a predetermined order. An interrupt to be executed is set. If another interrupt factor occurs during the execution of the interrupt process and the interrupt factor continues even after the interrupt process is completed, a new interrupt will occur at that point. It will be.

  The main control unit 41 repeatedly loops the process according to the control state until the detection state of the various switches connected to the game control board 40 changes as a basic process, and changes the detection state of the various switches. Execute a process that moves in stages. Further, the main control unit 41 executes a timer interrupt process (main) at regular time intervals (about 0.56 ms in this embodiment). In addition, the execution interval of the timer interrupt process (main) is set to a time longer than the sum of the time required to complete the repeated process according to the control state in the basic process and the execution time of the timer interrupt process (main) Therefore, the process that is repeated according to the control state between the current and next timer interrupt processes (main) is completed at least once.

  An effect switch 56 is connected to the effect control board 90, and a detection signal of the effect switch 56 is input.

  The effect control board 90 is connected to effect devices such as a liquid crystal display 51 (see FIG. 1), an effect LED 52, speakers 53 and 54, and the reel LED 55 described above, which are arranged on the front door 1b of the slot machine 1. These effect devices are driven based on control by a later-described sub-control unit 91 mounted on the effect control board 90.

  In this embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 mounted on the effect control board 90 controls the output of the effect devices such as the liquid crystal display 51, effect effect LED 52, speakers 53 and 54, and reel LED 55. However, in addition to the sub-control unit 91, an output control unit that directly controls the output of the effect device is mounted on the effect control board 90 or another board, and the sub-control unit 91 is based on a command from the main control unit 41. The output control unit may determine the output pattern of the effect device, and the output control unit may control the output of the effect device based on the output pattern determined by the sub control unit 91. In such a configuration, the sub control unit 91 and the output control may be performed. The output control of the rendering device is performed by both of the units.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the liquid crystal display 51, the effect effect LED 52, the speakers 53 and 54, and the reel LED 55 are exemplified as the effect device, but the effect device is not limited to these, for example, a mechanically driven display. A device or a mechanically driven item may be applied as the effect device.

  The effect control board 90 is composed of a microcomputer having a sub CPU 91a, ROM 91b, RAM 91c, and I / O port 91d, and a liquid crystal display connected to the effect control board 90, a sub control unit 91 for effect control. 51, a display control circuit 92 for performing display control, an LED driving circuit 93 for controlling driving of the effect LED 52 and the reel LED 55, an audio output circuit 94 for controlling audio output from the speakers 53, 54, when the power is turned on or from the sub CPU 91a The reset circuit 95 that gives a reset signal to the sub CPU 91a when the initialization command is not input for a predetermined time, the switch detection circuit 96 that detects the detection signal input from the effect switch 56 connected to the effect control board 90, and date information Clock device 97 for outputting time information including time information, and slot A power interruption detection circuit 98 that monitors a power supply voltage supplied to the thin 1 and outputs a voltage drop signal indicating that to the sub CPU 91a when a voltage drop is detected, and other circuits are mounted. The sub CPU 91a receives various commands transmitted from the game control board 40 and performs various controls for performing the effects, and directly or indirectly controls each part of the control circuit mounted on the effect control board 90. Control.

  The reset circuit 95 has a lower voltage for releasing the reset signal than the reset circuit 49 that gives the system reset signal to the main control unit 41 in the game control board 40. When the power is turned on, the sub control unit 91 It starts at an earlier stage than the unit 41. On the other hand, the power interruption detection circuit 98 has a voltage that outputs a voltage drop signal lower than the power interruption detection circuit 48 that outputs a voltage drop signal to the main control unit 41 in the game control board 40. The sub control unit 91 detects a power failure at a later stage than the main control unit 41, and performs a power interruption process (sub) described later.

  Similar to the main control unit 41, the sub control unit 91 has an interrupt function, generates an interrupt when receiving a command from the main control unit 41, and acquires a command transmitted from the main control unit 41. Execute command reception interrupt processing to be stored in the buffer. Further, the sub control unit 91 executes an interrupt process (sub), which will be described later, by generating an interrupt every time the number of input system clocks reaches a certain number, that is, every certain interval.

  Also, unlike the main control unit 41, the sub control unit 91 interrupts the process even when the timer interrupt process (sub) is being executed when an interrupt is generated based on the reception of the command. The command reception interrupt process is executed at the same time, and the command reception interrupt process is executed with the highest priority even if interrupts that trigger the timer interrupt process (sub) occur at the same time.

  The sub-control unit 91 is also supplied with backup power at the time of a power failure, and the data stored in the RAM 91c is held while the backup power is supplied.

  In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the medal payout rate changes according to the set value. Specifically, the medal payout rate is changed by using a winning probability corresponding to a set value in an internal lottery described later. The set value is composed of 6 levels of 1 to 6, with 6 being the highest payout rate and the payout rate being lower as the value is decreased in the order of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. That is, when 6 is set as the set value, the advantage is highest for the player, and as the value decreases in order of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, the advantage decreases stepwise.

  In order to change the setting value, it is necessary to turn on the power of the slot machine 1 after the setting key switch 37 is turned on. When the setting key switch 37 is turned on and the power is turned on, the setting value read from the RAM 41c is displayed as a display value on the setting value display 24, and the setting value can be changed by operating the reset / setting switch 38. Transition to the setting change state. When the reset / setting switch 38 is operated in the setting change state, the display value displayed on the setting value display 24 is updated one by one (when further operation is performed from the setting 6, the display returns to the setting 1). . When the start switch 7 is operated, the display value is determined as the set value. When the setting key switch 37 is turned off, the determined display value (setting value) is stored in the RAM 41c of the main control unit 41, and the state shifts to a state in which the game can proceed.

  In order to check the set value, after the game is over, the setting key switch 37 may be turned on in a state where the bet amount is not set. When the setting key switch 37 is turned on in such a situation, the setting value read out from the RAM 41c is displayed on the setting value display 24, thereby shifting to a setting confirmation state in which the setting value can be confirmed. In the setting confirmation state, the game cannot be progressed, and by setting the setting key switch 37 to the off state, the setting confirmation state is ended and the state in which the game can proceed is returned.

  In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 determines whether or not the voltage drop signal from the power interruption detection circuit 48 is detected every time the timer interruption process (main) is executed. When the determination process is performed and it is determined that the voltage drop signal is detected in the power failure determination process, a power interruption process (main) for setting data for determining whether or not the data in the RAM 41c is normal at the next return is performed. Run.

  Then, regardless of whether it is a system reset or a user reset, the main control unit 41 is based on the data stored in the RAM 41c on the condition that the data in the RAM 41c is normal at the time of activation. However, if the AM41c data is not normal, it is determined that the RAM is abnormal, the RAM abnormal error code is set in the register, and the RAM abnormal error state is controlled, and the game progresses. Is supposed to be disabled.

  Further, the sub control unit 91 also determines whether or not the voltage drop signal from the power interruption detection circuit 98 is detected in the timer interrupt process (sub), and when it is determined that the voltage drop signal is detected, A power interruption process (sub) for setting data for determining whether or not the data in the RAM 91c is normal at the next return is executed.

  Then, the sub-control unit 91 returns the processing state of the sub-control unit 91 to the state before the power interruption based on the data stored in the RAM 91c on the condition that the data of the RAM 91c is normal at the time of activation. However, if the data in the RAM 91c is not normal, it is determined that the RAM is abnormal, and the RAM 91c is initialized. In this case, unlike the main control unit 41, only the RAM 91c is initialized, and the performance is not disabled.

  Next, initialization of the RAM 41c of the main control unit 41 will be described. The storage area of the RAM 41c of the main control unit 41 is divided into an important work, a non-saved work, a general work, a special work, an unused area, and a stack area.

  In this embodiment, the main control unit 41 stores the data in the RAM 41c when the setting key switch 37 is turned on, when a RAM error occurs, when the BB ends, or when the setting key switch 37 is turned off. When not being destroyed, when five initialization conditions at the end of one game are satisfied, four types of initializations that are initialized in accordance with each initialization condition are performed.

  Initialization 1 is an initialization performed when the setting key switch 37 is turned on at the time of startup and transitions to a setting change state, or initialization performed when a RAM abnormality error occurs. Now, all the areas of the RAM 41c are initialized. Initialization 2 is initialization performed at the end of the BB. In initialization 2, the general work, the unused area, and the unused stack area are initialized in the storage area of the RAM 41c. Initialization 3 is an initialization performed when the setting key switch 37 is off at the time of startup and the data in the RAM 41c is not destroyed. In the initialization 3, the unsaved work, the unused area, and the The used stack area is initialized. Initialization 4 is initialization performed at the end of one game. In initialization 4, an unused area and an unused stack area in the storage area of the RAM 41c are initialized.

  In this embodiment, initialization 1 is performed before the change of the setting change state. However, the initialization 1 is performed at the end of the setting change state, or both before the change of the setting change state and at the end of the setting change state. Also good.

  In the slot machine 1 of the present embodiment, as described above, the prescribed number of bets that can be set is determined according to the gaming state (RT0 to 5, RB, BB (RB)), and determined according to the gaming state. The game can be started on condition that the specified number of bets is set. In the present embodiment, the winning line LN is activated when a specified number of bets according to the gaming state are set.

  In the slot machine 1 of this embodiment, when all the reels 2L, 2C, 2R are stopped, the activated pay line (in the present embodiment, all the pay lines are always enabled. The activated winning line is simply referred to as a winning line), and a winning combination is obtained when a combination of symbols called “comb” is arranged. The combination may be a combination of the same symbols or a combination including different symbols. The type of winning combination is determined according to the game state, but it can be roughly divided into a small role with payout of medals and a replay that can start the next game without the need to set the number of bets. There are a game combination and a special combination with a transition to a game state advantageous to the player. Below, a small role and a re-playing role are collectively called a general role. In order for winning of each combination determined according to the gaming state to occur, it is necessary to win an internal lottery to be described later and set a winning flag of the combination in the RAM 41c.

  Of the winning flags for each of these combinations, the winning flag for the small role and the re-playing role is valid only in the game in which the flag is set, and is invalid in the next game. It is valid until the combination of combinations permitted by the flag is complete, and is invalid in a game having the combination of combinations permitted. In other words, once the winning flag for a special role is won, even if the combination of characters allowed by the flag cannot be aligned, the winning flag is not invalidated and is carried over to the next game. It becomes.

  Hereinafter, the internal lottery of the present embodiment will be described. In the internal lottery, it is determined whether or not the above winning combination is permitted before the display results of all reels 2L, 2C, and 2R are derived and displayed (actually, when the start switch 7 is detected). To do. In the internal lottery, first, a random value for internal lottery (an integer from 0 to 65535) is acquired when the start switch 7 is detected. Specifically, the value generated by the random number circuit 508b and stored in the random number value register of the random number circuit 508b is set as the lottery work assigned to the RAM 41c. Then, for each combination determined according to the gaming state and whether or not the special combination is carried over, it is determined according to the numerical data stored in the lottery work, the current gaming state and RT type, the number of bets and the set value. It is performed according to the number of judgment values for each combination.

  In the internal lottery, the number of judgment values determined in accordance with the role that is the subject of the internal lottery, the current gaming state, the current RT type and the set value are stored in a random number for internal lottery (the lottery work When the result of addition overflows, it is determined that the winning combination is won. For this reason, a winning combination will be won with a probability (number of determination values / 65536) according to the number of determination values.

  If a winning combination of any combination is determined, a winning flag corresponding to the combination determined to be winning is set in the internal winning flag storing work assigned to the RAM 41c. The internal winning flag storage work consists of a 2-byte storage area, of which the upper byte is assigned as the special role storing work in which the winning flag for the special role is set, and the lower byte is the winning of the general role It is assigned as a general role storage work for which a flag is set. Specifically, when a special combination is won, a special combination winning flag indicating that the special combination is won is set in the special combination storing work, and the winning flag set in the general combination storing work is cleared. When a general combination is won, a winning flag for the general combination indicating that the general combination is won is set in the general combination storing work. If no winning combination is selected, only the general winning combination work is cleared.

  In the internal lottery of the present embodiment, the number of determination values of the lottery object combination is sequentially added to the internal lottery random value, and when the addition result overflows, it is determined that the combination is won. However, the number of determination values of the lottery target combination may be sequentially subtracted from the internal lottery random value, and when the result of the subtraction overflows, it may be determined that the combination is won.

  Further, in this embodiment, the number of determination values, which is the number of determination values determined to be winning, is determined for each lottery target role, and the number of determination values is sequentially added (subtracted) to the random number value for each lottery target role. In the case of overflow, the winning combination corresponding to the number of determination values is determined. However, for each lottery target role, a range of random values determined to be winning is determined, and the range to which the random value belongs It is good also as a structure which determines the winning of the role to perform.

  Next, stop control of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R will be described.

  The main control unit 41 refers to the table index and table creation data stored in the ROM 41b when the reel starts to rotate and when the reel stops and the reel that is still rotating still remains. A stop control table is created for each reel that is rotating. When any of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R corresponding to the rotating reel is effectively detected, the stop control table of the corresponding reel is referred to and the slip of the referred stop control table is referred to. Based on the number of frames, control is performed to stop the rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, 2R corresponding to the operated stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R.

  In the table index, an index that indicates the start address of the area in which the data for table creation is stored, from the reference address when referring to the table index, according to the setting state of the winning flag by internal lottery (hereinafter referred to as the internal winning state) Differences up to the address where the data is stored are registered. As a result, a difference corresponding to the internal winning state is acquired, and the corresponding index data can be acquired by adding the difference to the reference address. Even when the winning combinations are different, when the same control is applied, the same address is stored as the index data. In such a case, the same table creation data is referred to. Thus, a stop control table is created.

  The table creation data includes a stop control table indicating the number of sliding frames according to the stop operation position, and an address of the stop control table to be referred to according to the reel stop status.

  The stop control table referred to according to the reel stop status is whether all reels are rotating, only the left reel is stopped, only the middle reel is stopped, only the right reel is stopped, It may vary depending on whether the middle reel is stopped, the left and right reels are stopped, the middle and right reels are stopped, and if any reel is stopped, stop Since there may be differences depending on the stop position of the reels already completed, the address of the stop control table to be referenced for each situation is registered for each rotating reel, and based on the top address of the table creation data, It is possible to specify the address of the stop control table that should be referred to according to the status of the system. And to be able to identify the stop control table. Even when the reel stop status and the stopped position of the stopped reel are different, when the same stop control table is applied, the same address may be registered as the address of the stop control table. In such a case, the same stop control table is referred to.

  The stop control table is data that can specify the number of sliding frames for each timing when the stop operation is performed. In the present embodiment, a stepping motor that makes one turn at a cycle of 336 steps (0 to 335) is used for the reel motors 32L, 32C, and 32R. That is, when the reel motors 32L, 32C, and 32R are driven in 336 steps, the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R make one round. Then, 21 areas (frames) divided every 16 steps (the number of steps that one symbol moves) are defined for one reel, and these areas are areas 0 to 20 from the reel reference position. A number is assigned. On the other hand, the number of symbols arranged on one reel is 21, and symbol numbers 0 to 20 from the reel reference position are assigned to symbols on each reel, so symbols 0 to 20 are assigned to each reel. , Area numbers 0 to 20 are assigned in order. In the stop control table, the number of sliding symbols for each area number is compressed and stored according to a predetermined rule, and the number of sliding symbols for each area number can be acquired by expanding the stop control table. Yes.

  As described above, the stop control table created by referring to the table index and the table creation data corresponds to the area number, and the area corresponding to each area number is the stop reference position (in this embodiment, the perspective window 3). Sliding frame when an operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R is detected at a timing (a timing in which the number of steps from the reel reference position is included in the range of the number of steps of each region number). It is a table with each number set.

  Next, the procedure for creating the stop control table will be described. First, at the start of reel rotation, the top address of the table creation data corresponding to the internal winning state of the game is acquired. Specifically, the table index is first referred to, index data corresponding to the internal winning state is obtained, table creation data is identified based on the obtained index data, and all reels are identified from the identified table creation data. The address of the stop control table for each reel corresponding to the state of rotation is acquired, and the stop control table for each reel stored at the acquired address is expanded to generate a stop control table for all reels.

  Further, when any one reel stops or any two reels stop, the index data acquired at the start of reel rotation, that is, the top address of the table creation data corresponding to the internal winning state of the game The table creation data is identified based on the table creation data, and the stop control table address of the unreacted reel corresponding to the stopped reel and the area number of the stop position of the reel is obtained from the identified table creation data. The stop control table for each stored reel is expanded to create a stop control table for the unstopped reels.

  Next, when the main control unit 41 effectively detects any one of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R corresponding to the rotating reel, the control when the display result is derived to the corresponding reel is described. To explain, when any operation corresponding to the rotating reel is detected effectively among the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R, the stop operation position is based on the number of steps from the reel reference position when the stop operation is detected. The number of sliding symbols corresponding to the area number of the specified stop operation position is acquired by referring to the stop control table of the reel where the stop operation is detected. Then, control is performed to rotate and stop the reel by the number of acquired sliding frames. Specifically, from the number of steps from the reel reference position at the time when the stop operation is detected, the number of steps from the acquired number of sliding frames to the stop is calculated, and the reel is rotated and stopped by the calculated number of steps. Take control. As a result, the area corresponding to the area number that is the stop position ahead of the number of sliding frames from the area corresponding to the area number of the stop operation position where the stop operation is detected is the stop reference position (in this embodiment, the perspective window 3 It will stop in the lower symbol area).

  In the table index of this embodiment, only one address is stored as index data corresponding to one internal winning state in one gaming state, and further, one table creation data includes one reel. Only one address is stored as the address of the storage area of the stop control table corresponding to the stop status (and the stop position of the stopped reel). In other words, table creation data corresponding to one internal winning state in one gaming state and stop control tables corresponding to reel stop states (and stopped positions of stopped reels) are uniquely determined. The stop control table created with reference to is unique for one internal winning state in one gaming state and the reel stop status (and the stop position of the stopped reel). Therefore, when all of the gaming state, the internal winning state, and the reel stop status (and the stop position of the stopped reel) are the same, the reel is based on the same stop control table, that is, the same control pattern. The stop control is performed.

  Further, in this embodiment, a value of 0 to 4 is determined as the number of sliding frames, and the reel can be stopped by drawing a maximum of 4 symbols after detecting the stop operation. In other words, the stop position of the symbol can be designated from a range of a maximum of 5 frames including the stop operation position where the stop operation is detected. In addition, since it is necessary to move one frame to move the reel for one symbol, it is possible to stop the reel by pulling in a maximum of four symbols after detecting the stop operation. The symbol stop position can be designated from a range of up to five symbols including the operation position.

  In this embodiment, when any of the winning combinations is won, the winning combination is drawn to the maximum in the range of 4 frames on the winning line, and the non-winning winning combination is drawn so that it is not aligned on the winning line. A stop control table with a defined number of frames is created and reel stop control is performed. If no winning combination is selected, a stop control table with a determined number of sliding symbols that do not have any combination And stop control of the reel. As a result, when a stop operation is performed, if the winning combination can be stopped on the winning line in the drawing range of up to 4 frames, the control is performed so that the winning combination is stopped. The combination that is not performed is stopped without being aligned in the drawing range of a maximum of 4 frames.

  When a special role and a small role are elected at the same time, such as when a special role is elected while the special role has been carried over from before the previous game, the winning small role is the maximum in the range of 4 frames on the winning line. The number of sliding frames is fixed so that it can be drawn to the limit, and for the stop operation position where the selected small role cannot be drawn in the range of up to 4 frames in the winning line, the winning special role is in the range of 4 frames in the winning line Then, a stop control table in which the number of sliding frames is determined so as to be pulled in as much as possible is created, and reel stop control is performed. As a result, when a stop operation is performed, if it is possible to stop all the small roles that have been selected in the drawing range of up to 4 frames on the winning line and stop them, control is performed so that the winning combination is stopped. If you can't draw a small role that has been won in the drawing range of up to 4 frames on the line, if you can stop with a special role that has been won in the drawing range of up to 4 frames on the winning line, Control is performed to align and stop this, and the winning combination that has not been won is controlled to be stopped without being aligned in the 4-frame pull-in range. That is, in such a case, priority is given to the control for aligning the small combination on the winning line over the special combination, and the special combination can be won only when the small combination cannot be drawn. When a special combination and a small combination can be withdrawn at the same time, only the small combination is drawn in, and the small combination is not aligned on the winning line at the same time as the special combination.

  In this example, when a special role is elected while the special role has been carried over from before the previous game, or when a special role and a small role are simultaneously elected, the special role and the small role are won simultaneously. If the selected special role is given priority over the selected special role, the special role is controlled on the winning line only when the small role cannot be withdrawn. When winning simultaneously, priority is given to the control for aligning the special role on the winning line over the small role, and the control for aligning the small role on the winning line may be performed only when the special role cannot be drawn.

  If a special player and a replaying player are elected at the same time, such as when a replaying player is elected while the special role has been carried over from before the previous game, when the stop operation is performed, In addition, a control is performed in which the symbols of the re-gamer are aligned and stopped within a drawing range of up to 4 frames. In this case, the symbols constituting the re-gamer or the symbols constituting the re-gamer to be simultaneously elected are arranged at intervals of 5 symbols or less, that is, within 4 frames, for any of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R. Since it can always be stopped at any position within the 4-frame pull-in range, if the special combination and the re-playing combination are elected at the same time, the timing of the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R by the player Without fail, the re-playing role will always be won. That is, in such a case, the control for aligning the re-games on the winning line has priority over the special game, and the re-games will always win. In the case where the special combination and the re-playing combination can be withdrawn at the same time, only the re-playing combination is drawn in, and the special combination is not arranged on the winning line at the same time as the re-playing combination.

  In this embodiment, the reel stop control is performed by using a stop control table that can specify the number of sliding frames for each timing at which the stop operation is performed. A configuration that performs stop control by specifying the stop position from the table and stopping the reel at the specified stop position, and searching for a stop position that can be stopped when the stop operation is performed without using the stop control table or the stop position table. A configuration that performs stop control that identifies and stops the reel at the specified stop position, stop control using the stop control table, stop control using the stop position table, and can be stopped without using the stop control table or the stop position table A configuration that uses stop control by searching and specifying the stop position together, and a configuration that performs stop control by partially changing the stop control table and stop position table. It may be.

  In this embodiment, after the rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is started, the main control unit 41 rotates the reels for which the stop operation has not been detected yet until the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected. Continuously, on the condition that the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected, control is performed to stop the display result on the corresponding reel. Even if the reel rotation temporarily stops due to the occurrence of a reel rotation error, the stop operation is still detected until the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected after the reel rotation is restarted. Control is performed to stop the display result of the corresponding reels on the condition that the rotation of the reels that have not been continued is continued and the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected.

  In this embodiment, control is performed to stop the display result on the corresponding reel on condition that the operation of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R is detected. However, the rotation of the reel is started. When a predetermined automatic stop time has elapsed, even if the reel stop operation is not performed, it is assumed that the stop operation has been performed, and automatic stop control is performed to automatically stop each reel. May be. In this case, since the reels are stopped without the player's operation, it is preferable to derive a display result that does not constitute any combination even if any combination is won.

  In the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 measures the game time, which is the time elapsed from the start of the reel rotation every time the reel starts rotating after the game starts. After a game is over, when a specified number of bets are set by inserting medals, etc., and the game start operation is enabled, the reel start of the previous game is started. If the game time that started timing from the time point is equal to or longer than a predetermined restriction time (4.1 seconds in this embodiment), that is, if the predetermined restriction time has elapsed since the reel rotation start time of the previous game, At that time, the reels in the game are started to rotate.

  On the other hand, after the end of one game, when a predetermined number of bets are set by inserting medals, etc., and when the game start operation is enabled, the reel rotation of the previous game is started. If the game time that started timing from the time is less than the predetermined regulation time, that is, if the predetermined regulation time has not elapsed since the reel rotation start time of the previous game, the reel rotation is not started at that time, It waits until the game time that has started timing from the start of reel rotation of the previous game reaches a predetermined regulation time, and when the predetermined regulation time is reached, rotation of the reel in the game is started.

  That is, when the predetermined regulation time has not elapsed since the start of reel rotation in the previous game, the main control unit 41 regulates the progress of the game until the predetermined regulation time elapses. The progress of the game is regulated so that the shortest time is not less than a predetermined regulation time.

  In this embodiment, if a predetermined regulation time has not elapsed since the start of reel rotation in the previous game, the progress of the game is regulated until the predetermined regulation time has elapsed, so that one game The configuration is such that the progress of the game is regulated so that the shortest time is not less than a predetermined regulation time. If the game time is counted from one timing other than the start of reel rotation in one game (for example, at the end of the game), and a predetermined regulation time has passed by the same one timing in the next game While the game is allowed to proceed, if the predetermined regulation time has not elapsed before the same timing in the next game, the game does not proceed and the predetermined regulation time elapses To wait, that it allows progressive game when a predetermined restriction time period has passed, it may be configured to one game shortest time regulates the progress of the game to a predetermined restriction time or more.

  Next, commands that the main control unit 41 transmits to the sub control unit 91 will be described.

  In the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 sends to the sub-control unit 91 an inserted number command, a credit command, an internal winning command, a freeze command, a reel rotation start command, a reel stop command, a winning number command, a payout start command, a payout A plurality of types of commands including an end command, a return command, a gaming state command, an RT information command, a standby command, a stop command, an error command, a return command, a setting command, a setting confirmation command, a door command, and an operation detection command are transmitted.

  These commands consist of 1-byte type data indicating the command type and 1-byte extension data indicating the command content, and the sub-control unit 91 can determine the command type from the type data.

  The inserted number command is a command that can specify the number of inserted medals, that is, the number of medals used for setting the number of bets, and is a state from the end of the game (after changing the setting) to the start of the game. Or, when a prescribed number of bets is not set, a medal is inserted, or when the bet number is set by operating the MAXBET switch 6. The inserted number command is transmitted when the betting number setting operation is performed, so that it is possible to specify that the betting number setting operation has been performed by receiving the inserted number command.

  The credit command is a command that can specify the number of medals stored as credits, and is a state from the end of the game (after setting change) to the start of the game, and in a state where a predetermined number of bets is set, Sent when a medal is inserted and credits are added.

  The internal winning command is a command that can specify the internal lottery result, and is transmitted when the start switch 7 is operated to start the game. Further, since the internal winning command is transmitted when the start switch 7 is operated, it is possible to specify that the start switch 7 has been operated by receiving the internal winning command.

  The freeze command is a command that can specify whether or not to control a freeze state that delays the progress of the game for a predetermined time in the game, and when controlling to the freeze state, and is transmitted after the internal winning command. The

  The reel rotation start command is a command for notifying the start of reel rotation, and is transmitted when rotation of the reels 2L, 2C, and 2R is started.

  The reel stop command is a command that can specify whether the reel to be stopped is the left reel, the middle reel, or the right reel, the area number of the corresponding reel stop operation position, and the area number of the corresponding reel stop position. And is transmitted each time stop control is performed in accordance with the stop operation of each reel. Since the reel stop command is transmitted when the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated, it is possible to specify that the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R are operated by receiving the reel stop command. .

  The winning number command is a command that can specify the combination of symbols aligned on the winning line LN, whether or not a winning is received, the type of winning, and the number of medals to be paid out at the winning. Sent after.

  The payout start command is a command for notifying the start of payout of medals, and is transmitted when the payout of medals is started by paying out a prize or credit (including medals used for setting the number of bets). The payout end command is a command for notifying the end of payout of medals, and is transmitted when the payout of medals by winning and winning a credit is completed.

  The return command is a command indicating that the main control unit 41 has returned to the control state before the power interruption, and is transmitted when the main control unit 41 returns to the control state before the power interruption.

  The game state command is a command that can specify the current game state (in BB, in RB, or replay), and is transmitted when power is restored or when the game ends.

  The RT information command is a command that can specify the gaming state of the next game (any one of RT0 to RT5), and is transmitted when the game ends.

  The standby command is a command indicating a transition to the standby state, and after one game is over, a credit (which was used for setting the bet number) is set when the transition to the standby state is made after a predetermined time without setting the bet number. (Including medals) is sent out after the medal payout is completed and the payout end command is sent.

  The stop command is a command indicating the occurrence or release of the stop state, and after the end of the BB, the stop command indicating the occurrence of the stop state is transmitted when the ending effect waiting time has elapsed, and the reset operation is performed. When the stop state is released, a stop command indicating the release of the stop state is transmitted.

  An error command is a command that indicates the occurrence or cancellation of an error condition and the type of error condition. When an error is determined and controlled to an error condition, an error command indicating the occurrence and type of the error condition is sent and reset. When the error state is canceled after the operation is performed, an error command indicating the cancellation of the error state is transmitted.

  The setting command is a command indicating the start or end of the setting change state and the setting value after the setting change. At the time of transition to the setting change state, a setting command indicating the start of the setting change state is transmitted, and when the setting change state ends. A setting command indicating the end of the setting change state and the setting value after the setting change is transmitted. Further, since the control state of the main control unit 41 is initialized with the transition to the setting change state, it can be specified that the control state of the main control unit 41 has been initialized by the setting command indicating the start of setting. .

  The setting confirmation command is a command that indicates the start or end of the setting confirmation state. A setting confirmation command that indicates the start of setting confirmation is transmitted when entering the setting confirmation state, and the setting confirmation end is indicated when the setting confirmation state ends. A confirmation command is sent.

  The door command is a command indicating the detection state of the door opening detection switch 25, that is, on (open state) / off (closed state), when the power is turned on, at the end of one game (after the game is over, the bet number of the next game) Sent before the setting of ”can be started), and when the detection state of the door opening detection switch 25 changes (from on to off, from off to on).

  The operation detection command is a command indicating the detection state (on / off) of the operation switches (MAXBET switch 6, start switch 7, stop switches 8L, 8C, 8R), and is transmitted periodically.

  Of these commands, commands other than the door command and the operation detection command are generated in the basic process, temporarily stored in the command queue provided in the RAM 41c, and transmitted in the command transmission process of the timer interrupt process (main) described above. The

  On the other hand, the door command is generated in the door monitoring process of the timer interrupt process (main), temporarily stored in the command queue provided in the RAM 41c, and transmitted in the subsequent command transmission process of the timer interrupt process (main). Is done.

  The operation detection command is generated in the switch input determination process of the timer interrupt process (main), temporarily stored in the command queue provided in the RAM 41c, and then the command transmission process of the timer interrupt process (main). And sent.

  Next, the control of the effect performed by the sub-control unit 91 based on the command transmitted from the main control unit 41 to the effect control board 90 will be described.

  When the sub control unit 91 receives a command from the main control unit 41, the sub control unit 91 executes a command reception interrupt process. In the command reception interrupt process, the command acquired from the command transmission line is stored in the reception buffer provided in the RAM 91c.

  The reception buffer is provided with an area capable of storing a maximum of 16 commands so that a plurality of commands can be accumulated.

  In the timer interrupt process (sub), the sub-control unit 91 determines whether or not an unprocessed command is stored in the reception buffer. If an unprocessed command is stored, the sub-control unit 91 is the earliest. The control pattern table stored in the ROM 91b is referred to based on the command received in the stage, and the liquid crystal display 51, effect effect LED 52, speakers 53, 54, reel LED 55, etc. are controlled based on the control contents registered in the control pattern table. Performs output control of various rendering devices.

  In the control pattern table, the display pattern of the liquid crystal display 51 corresponding to the type of command, the lighting mode of the lighting effect LED 52, the output mode of the speakers 53 and 54, the lighting mode of the reel LED, etc. Control patterns of these effect devices are registered, and when the sub-control unit 91 receives a command, the sub-control unit 91 stores the control patterns registered corresponding to the effect patterns set in the RAM 91c in the game of the control pattern table. Among these, the control pattern corresponding to the type of the received command is referred to, and the output control of the rendering device is performed based on the control pattern. Thereby, the production according to the production pattern and the progress of the game is executed.

  If the sub-control unit 91 receives a new command during execution of an effect triggered by the reception of a certain command, the sub-control unit 91 stops the effect based on the control pattern being executed, and changes to the newly received command. An effect based on the corresponding control pattern is executed. In other words, even if the production is not finished to the end, when a new command is received, the production that was being executed is canceled and a new command is received unless the received new command is not a command that triggers a new production. An effect based on the command is executed.

  When the internal winning command is received, the effect pattern is selected at a selection rate corresponding to the result of the internal lottery indicated by the internal winning command, and is set in the RAM 91c. The selection rate of the effect pattern is registered in the effect table stored in the ROM 91b, and when the sub control unit 91 receives the internal winning command, the sub control unit 91 stores the effect pattern in the effect table according to the result of the internal lottery indicated by the internal winning command. With reference to the registered selection rate, one of the effect patterns is selected from a plurality of types of effect patterns according to the selection rate, and the selected effect pattern is set in the RAM 91c as the effect pattern of the game. Even if the same command is received, a different control pattern is selected depending on the effect pattern selected when the internal winning command is received. As a result, different effects may be performed depending on the effect pattern.

Is normal replay + promotion replay 1 + promotion replay 2 + lower replay, replay GR5 is normal replay + promotion replay 2, and replay GR6 is normal replay + promotion replay 2 + lower replay.

  Replay GR11 is tumble replay + special replay, replay GR12 is tumble replay + special replay + normal replay, replay GR13 is tumble replay + special replay + lower replay, and replay GR14 is Tumble replay + special replay + normal replay + lower replay. Replay GR15 is tumble replay + special replay + promotion replay 1.

  In this way, the target role of the internal lottery varies depending on whether the gaming state is RT0-3, RT4, 5, BB (RB), or RB, and BB (RB) or RB Then, the internal lottery is performed using the lottery table in which the winning combination probability of the small role is set higher than RT0-5.

  If the gaming state is RT4 or 5, the internal lottery role does not change depending on whether it is RT4 or RT5, but the target game depends on whether it is RT4 or RT5. An internal lottery is performed using lottery tables with different winning probabilities for gamers.

  Also, when the gaming state is RT0-3, depending on whether it is RT0-3, the re-game player to be subject to the internal lottery differs, and depending on whether it is RT0-3, the target An internal lottery is performed using a lottery table with different re-game players and their winning probabilities.

  In this embodiment, when a plurality of types of re-game players are won at the same time, as shown in FIG. Control is performed so that the line is stopped within a maximum of 4 frames on the line. FIG. 16 is a diagram for explaining reel control when a plurality of replays are won simultaneously.

  When the replay GR1 (normal replay + promotion replay 1) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of middle left and right, the combination of the promotion replay 1 among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the control is performed and the stop operation is performed in an order other than the left middle right, the control is performed so that the combination of the normal replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When replay GR2 (normal replay + promotion replay 1 + promotion replay 2) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, the combination of promotion replay 1 among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN Control to stop is performed, and when stop operation is performed in an order other than left and right middle, control is performed to align the combination of normal replays to the winning line LN and stop.

  If Replay GR3 (Normal Replay + Promotion Replay 1 + Lower Replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the middle left or right order, the combination of Promotion Replay 1 among the selected replay players will be aligned to the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed in an order other than middle left and right, control is performed so that the combination of normal replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  If Replay GR4 (Normal Replay + Promotion Replay 1 + Promotion Replay 2 + Lower Replay) is won and a stop operation is performed in the middle right / left order, the combination of Promotion Replay 1 among the selected replaying players is placed on the winning line LN When the stop operation is performed in an order other than middle right and left, the control is performed so that the combination of the normal replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When replay GR5 (normal replay + promotion replay 2) is won and stop operation is performed in the order of the middle left and right, the combination of the promotion replay 2 among the selected replay players is stopped in line with the winning line LN When the stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle right and left, control is performed so that the combination of normal replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When Replay GR6 (Normal Replay + Promotion Replay 2 + Lower Replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of middle right and left, the combination of Promotion Replay 2 of the selected replaying players is aligned with the winning line LN Control to stop is performed, and when stop operations are performed in an order other than right center left, control is performed to align the normal replay combination with the winning line LN and stop.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the symbols constituting the promotion replay 1, the promotion replay 2, and the normal replay are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all of the left reel 2L, the middle reel 2C, and the right reel 2R. The reel control is performed so that the promotion replay 1, the promotion replay 2 or the normal replay always wins regardless of the stop operation timing of the stop switches 8L to 8R according to the operation order.

  In this way, different operation modes are set as the operation modes for allowing the replays GR1 to 6 to win the promoted replays 1 and 2.

  For this reason, if one of the replays GR1 to 6 is won in RT1 where the replays GR1 to 6 are subject to internal lottery, the promotion replay will be won with a probability of 1/6, and the transition to RT0 Become.

  When the replay GR11 (falling replay + special replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of left, middle and right, the control of stopping the combination of the special replays in the winning replay combination in the winning line LN. If the stop operation is performed in an order other than the left middle right, control is performed to stop the combination of the fall replays aligned with the winning line LN.

  When replay GR12 (falling replay + special replay + normal replay) is won and the stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, the combination of special replays among the selected replay players is stopped in line with the winning line LN. When the control is performed and the stop operation is performed in an order other than right and left, the control is performed to stop the combination of the fall replays on the winning line LN.

  When replay GR13 (falling replay + special replay + lower replay) is won and a stop operation is performed in the middle / left / right order, the combination of special replays among the selected replay players is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the control is performed and the stop operation is performed in an order other than the middle left and right, the control is performed so that the combination of falling replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  If Replay GR14 (Tumble Replay + Special Replay + Normal Replay + Lower Replay) is won and the stop operation is made in the middle right / left order, the combination of special replays among the selected replay players is aligned to the winning line LN If the stop operation is performed in an order other than middle right and left, the combination of falling replays is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When replay GR15 (falling replay + special replay + promotion replay 1) is won and pressed right, that is, when the stop operation is performed in an operation mode in which the right reel 2R is first stopped, the special replay among the selected replay players When the stop operation is performed in the operation mode in which the combination of the above is aligned with the pay line LN and left-pressed, that is, in the operation mode in which the left reel 2L is first stopped or in the middle mode, that is, in the operation mode in which the middle reel 2C is first stopped. In this case, a control is performed to stop the combination of falling replays in line with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, since the symbols constituting the special replay and the fall replay are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less in all of the left reel 2L, the middle reel 2C, and the right reel 2R, Regardless of the stop operation timing of the stop switches 8L to 8R, the reel control is performed so that the special replay or the fall replay is always won.

  In this way, different operation modes are set as the operation modes in order to win special replays and avoid falling replays with the replays GR11 to 15.

  For this reason, if one of the replays GR11 to 15 is elected at RT0 where the replays GR11 to 15 are the targets of the internal lottery, the special replay wins with a probability of 1/5 and shifts to RT2. Then, the fall replay wins with a probability of 4/5 and shifts to RT1.

  Next, when a plurality of types of small combinations are won simultaneously, as shown in FIG. 17, a maximum of four small combinations determined according to the types of small combinations that are simultaneously selected and the order of stop operations are displayed on the winning line. Control is performed so as to stop evenly within the frame drawing range. FIG. 17 is a diagram for explaining the reel control when a plurality of small combinations are won simultaneously.

  If left bell 1 (lower right bell + upper bell 6 + upper bell 7) wins and the stop operation is performed by pressing to the left, the combination of right down bells of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by middle pressing or right pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 6, the upper bell 7, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  If left bell 2 (lower right bell + upper bell 5 + upper bell 8) is elected and stopped by left-pressing, the combination of right-down bells in the selected small role is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When a stop operation is performed by middle pressing or right pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 5, the upper bell 6 or the transitional outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  If left bell 3 (lower right bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 3) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the left button, the right falling bell combination of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by middle pressing or right pressing, control is performed such that any combination of the upper bell 2, the upper bell 3, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  If left bell 4 (lower right bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 4) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the left button, the combination of the right falling bells of the selected small roles is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped. When the stop operation is performed by middle pressing or right pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 2, the upper bell 4, or the transitional outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the configuration symbol of the right-down bell is arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all reels, and when the left bells 1 to 4 are elected, a stop operation is performed by pushing left. In this case, regardless of the timing of the stop operation, control is always performed so that the right lowering bell is aligned with the winning line LN, while the symbols constituting the upper bells 1 to 8 are at intervals of 5 frames or more on all reels. Even if the left bells 1 to 4 are elected because there are places that are arranged, if the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle or right, it becomes the drawing range of the constituent symbols of the elected upper bells 1 to 8 If the stop operation is not performed at an appropriate timing, the winning upper bell cannot be aligned with the winning line LN, and in this case, the control is performed so that the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When middle bell 1 (middle bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 5) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell, the control of stopping the combination of the middle bells of the elected small roles with the winning line LN is stopped. If a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or right-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 2, the upper bell 5, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When middle bell 2 (middle bell + upper bell 1 + upper bell 6) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell, the control of stopping the combination of the middle bells of the elected small roles with the winning line LN is stopped. If the stop operation is performed by pressing left or right, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 1, the upper bell 6, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When middle bell 3 (middle bell + upper bell 4 + upper bell 7) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell, the control of stopping the combination of the middle bells of the elected small roles on the winning line LN is stopped. If a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or right-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 4, the upper bell 7, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When middle bell 4 (middle bell + upper bell 3 + upper bell 8) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing the middle bell, the control of stopping the combination of the middle bells of the elected small roles on the winning line LN is stopped. If a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or right-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 3, the upper bell 8, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the configuration symbols of the middle bell are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all reels, and when the middle bell 1 to 4 is elected, when the stop operation is performed by middle push Regardless of the timing of the stop operation, control is always performed so that the middle bell is aligned with the winning line LN, while the symbols constituting the upper bells 1 to 8 are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or more on all reels. Even if the middle bells 1 to 4 are elected, if the stop operation is performed by pressing left or right, an appropriate range that will be drawn in the constituent symbols of the elected upper bells 1 to 8 will be used. If the stop operation is not performed at the timing, the selected upper bell cannot be aligned with the winning line LN, and in this case, control is performed so that the shift outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 1 (middle bell + upper bell 3 + upper bell 5) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing right, the combination of middle bells of the selected small roles is stopped in alignment with the winning line LN. When a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 3, the upper bell 5, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN and stopped.

  When right bell 2 (middle bell + upper bell 1 + upper bell 7) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing right, the combination of middle bells among the selected small roles is stopped in line with the winning line LN. When a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 1, the upper bell 7, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 3 (middle bell + upper bell 4 + upper bell 6) is elected and a stop operation is performed by pressing right, the combination of middle bells among the selected small roles is stopped in alignment with winning line LN. When a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 4, the upper bell 6, or the transitional outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  When right bell 4 (middle bell + upper bell 2 + upper bell 8) is elected and the stop operation is performed by pressing right, the combination of middle bells of the selected small roles is stopped in alignment with winning line LN. When a stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, control is performed so that any combination of the upper bell 2, the upper bell 8, or the transition outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the configuration symbols of the middle bell are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or less on all reels, and when the right bell 1 to 4 is elected, when the stop operation is performed by pushing right However, regardless of the timing of the stop operation, control is always performed so that the middle bell is aligned with the winning line LN, while the symbols constituting the upper bells 1 to 8 are arranged at intervals of 5 frames or more on all reels. Therefore, even if the right bells 1 to 4 are elected, if the stop operation is performed by left-pressing or middle-pressing, an appropriate drawing range of the constituent symbols of the elected upper bells 1 to 8 is appropriate. If the stop operation is not performed at the timing, the selected upper bell cannot be aligned with the winning line LN, and in this case, control is performed so that the shift outcome is aligned with the winning line LN.

  Thus, in this embodiment, when any of the left bell, middle bell, right bell, that is, the push order bell is won, by performing a stop operation in a specific operation mode according to the type of winning combination, While the right-down bell or middle bell always wins, if the stop operation is performed in an operation mode other than the specific operation mode according to the type of winning combination, the upper bell is aligned at 1/4, but at 3/4 In some cases, the upper bells are not aligned and the transition outcomes are aligned.

  For this reason, at the time of winning the push order bell, the expected value of the number of medals to be paid out can be changed depending on whether or not it is operated in a specific operation mode according to the type of winning combination. In other words, even if one of the push order bells is won, it is impossible to intentionally select a specific operation mode unless the type is known. Although a medal can be surely obtained by winning a prize, the upper bell can be won only by 1/4 at a ratio of 2/3, and a medal cannot be surely obtained.

  Although not particularly shown, when a bell (middle bell + lower right bell) is won, a combination of “bell-bell-bell” is arranged on the winning line LN regardless of the stop order of the reels and the operation timing. To be controlled.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, the control is performed to any one of RT 0 to 5, RB, and BB (RB).

  RT0 ends when RT1 and RT2 are exhausted when the number of specified games has been reached when RT1 receives a promotion replay (when one of replays GR1 to GR6 wins and a stop operation is performed in the order that promotion replay wins) When to migrate. Regardless of the number of games since the transition to RT0, RT0 transitions to RT1 by winning a fall replay or stopping the transition, or transitions to RT2 by winning a special replay, or a special role is won And it complete | finishes by transfering to RT4 or RT5.

  The winning probability of the special role at RT0 is normal (about 1 / 214.2), the winning probability of the re-playing role is high (about 1 / 1.41), and the winning probability of the small role is normal (about 1 / 3.7) The medal payout rate per game is 1 or more. In RT0, only the replay GRs 11 to 15 among the re-game players are targeted for internal lottery.

  RT1 shifts when the transition is stopped at RT0, RT2, RT3, or when the fall replay wins at RT0. Then, RT1 ends when the promotion replay wins and shifts to RT0, or when the special role is won and shifts to RT4 or RT5.

  The winning probability of the special role in RT1 is normal (about 1 / 214.2) as in RT0, the winning probability of the re-gamer is lower (normally about 1 / 7.3) than RT0, and the winning probability of the small role is RT0. Similarly, it is normal (about 1 / 3.7), and the payout rate of medals per game is less than 1. In RT1, only normal replays and replays GR1 to GR6 among replaying players are targeted for internal lottery.

  RT2 shifts when a special replay wins at RT0. Then, RT2 ends when the transition outcome stops and shifts to RT1, or the special combination wins and shifts to RT4 or RT5.

  The winning probability for special roles in RT2 is normal (about 1 / 214.2) as in RT0, the winning probabilities for replaying players are almost the same as RT0 (about 1 / 1.4), and the winning probability for small roles is As with RT0, it is normal (about 1 / 3.7), and the payout rate of medals per game is 1 or more. Moreover, in RT2, only the normal replay among the re-game players is the target of the internal lottery.

  RT3 shifts to the end of BB (RB) and RB. Then, regardless of the number of games since the transition to RT3, RT3 ends when the transition outcome stops and transitions to RT1, or the special combination wins and transitions to RT4 or RT5.

  The winning probability of the special role in RT3 is normal (about 1 / 214.2), the winning probability of the re-playing role is usually lower than RT0 (about 1 / 7.3), and the winning probability of the small role is normal (same as RT0) About 1 / 3.7, however, the winning probability is about 1 / 6.1), and the payout rate of medals per game is less than 1. In RT3, only the normal replay among the re-game players is the target of the internal lottery.

  RT4 shifts when BB1, BB3, RB2 among the special roles are won in RT0-3. RT4 ends when the special combination that triggered the transition to RT4 wins and shifts to BB (RB) or RB, regardless of the number of games since the transition to RT4.

  In RT4, special roles are not subject to internal lottery, and the winning probability of re-playing roles is lower than RT0 and RT2, but higher than RT1 and RT3 (about 1 / 2.5), winning of small roles The probability is normal (about 1 / 3.7), and the payout rate of medals per game is less than 1. In RT4, only normal replay, lower replay, fall replay, promotion replay, and special replay among replaying players are targeted for internal lottery.

  RT5 shifts when BB2, BB4, RB1 among special roles are won in RT0-3. RT5 ends when the special combination that triggered the transition to RT5 wins and shifts to BB (RB) or RB regardless of the number of games after transition to RT5.

  In RT5, the special role is not subject to internal lottery, and the winning probability of the re-playing role is lower than RT0, RT2, but higher than RT1, RT3, RT4, high probability (about 1 / 2.0), small role The winning probability is normally (about 1 / 3.7), and the payout rate of medals per game is less than 1. Moreover, in RT5, only a normal replay, a lower stage replay, a fall replay, a promotion replay, and a special replay among replaying players are targeted for internal lottery.

  RB shifts when RB1 or RB2 wins at RT5, RT5. And RB is complete | finished by digesting 12 games or winning 6 times.

  In RB, special roles and re-playing roles are not subject to internal lottery, and the winning probability of small roles is higher than RT0-5 and has a high probability (about 1 / 1.0), and medals per game The payout rate is 1 or more.

  BB (RB) shifts when BB wins at RT 4 and 5. Then, BB (RB) ends when the total number of medals paid out to BB (RB) exceeds the prescribed number, regardless of the number of games since the transition to BB (RB).

  In BB (RB), special roles and re-playing roles are not subject to internal lottery, and the winning probability of small roles is higher than RT0-5 and has a high probability (about 1 / 1.0). The medal payout rate is 1 or more.

  Among RT4, 5, RB, and BB (RB), RB and BB (RB) have the highest medal payout rate per game and are the most advantageous gaming state.

  RT0 and RT0 of RT0-3 have a higher probability of winning the re-gamer, and the payout rate of medals per game is higher than RT1 and 3, compared to RT1 and 3, the player. It can be said that this is an advantageous state.

  Further, in the slot machine according to the present embodiment, when the gaming state is RT0 to 3, the sub-control unit 91 provides an assist time (hereinafter referred to as AT) that is a notification period in which a navigation effect that notifies the internal lottery result can be executed. The production state can be controlled.

  Here, the transition state of the gaming state of the present embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 10, when RB or BB (RB) ends, the process proceeds to RT3.

  In RT3, when the transition outcome is stopped, the process proceeds to RT1, and when the special combination is won, the process proceeds to RT4 or RT5 depending on the type of the selected special combination.

  In RT3, if any of the left bells 1-4, middle bells 1-4, right bells 1-4 is won and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome will stop, In RT3 which moved after the end of RB or BB (RB), when any of left bell 1-4, middle bell 1-4, right bell 1-4 is won, and a small part could not be won , Transition to RT1.

  In RT1, when the promotion replay wins, the process shifts to RT0, and when the special combination is won, the process shifts to RT4 or RT5 depending on the type of the selected special combination.

  Since the replays GR1 to 6 are elected at RT1 and the replay order is correct and the promoted replay is won, at RT1, the replays GR1 to 6 are elected and the answer is RT0 by correctly answering in the order of stoppage. Become.

  At RT0, if the fall replay wins or the transitional outcome stops, it moves to RT1, if the special replay wins, it moves to RT2, and the special role is elected. Accordingly, the process proceeds to RT4 or RT5.

  At RT0, the replays GR11 to 15 are elected, the special replay is won when the stop order is correct, and the fall replay is won when the answer is incorrect. In addition, when one of the left bell 1 to 4, the middle bell 1 to 4, and the right bell 1 to 4 wins at RT 0 and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome stops. Therefore, at RT0, the replay GRs 11 to 15 are elected, and the stop order is correctly answered, the process proceeds to RT2, and the replay GRs 11 to 15 are elected and the stop order is incorrect, or the left bells 1 to 4, If any one of the bells 1 to 4 and the right bells 1 to 4 wins and the small combination cannot be won, the process proceeds to RT1.

  In RT2, when the special combination is won, the process proceeds to RT4 or RT5 depending on the type of the special combination selected.

  In RT2, when any one of the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4 and the right bells 1 to 4 is won and the small role cannot be won, the transitional outcome stops. For this reason, in RT2, if any one of the left bells 1 to 4, the middle bells 1 to 4 and the right bells 1 to 4 is won and the small role cannot be won, the process proceeds to RT1.

  In RT4 and 5, when the special combination that triggered the transition to the inside wins, it shifts to RB or BB (RB).

  When controlled by the AT, which will be described later, the sub-control unit 91 performs a navigation effect by winning a navigation target combination corresponding to the gaming state. The navigation target combination corresponding to the gaming state is replay GR1 to 6 when RT1 and replay GR11 to 15 when RT0. Further, in any of RT0 to RT2, the push order bell is a common navigation target combination. Further, in the present embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 executes a navigation effect by satisfying certain conditions even in a normal state (RT1 and non-AT state) where neither AT nor ART is controlled.

  The navigation effect of the present embodiment is performed by displaying a navigation image from the liquid crystal display 51 and outputting navigation sound from the speakers 53 and 54. For example, when the replay GR1 or the left bell is won as the navigation image, “123” (indicating that the reel 2L is the first stop, the reel 2C is the second stop, and the reel 2R is the third stop) or “132” A pressing order image indicating the pressing order of the stop switches 8L, 8C, and 8R, such as the reel 2L is the first stop, the reel 2C is the third stop, and the reel 2R is the second stop, and the motif of the slot machine 1 Character images tailored to the are displayed. Also, as the navigation voice, for example, “left middle right!” (Reel 2L indicates the first stop, reel 2C indicates the second stop, reel 2R indicates the third stop) and “left and right middle!” (Reel 2L). Indicates the first stop, the reel 2C is the third stop, and the reel 2R is the second stop). Note that the navigation voice is output only from the stop switch that the player should press first or next. Therefore, if all the reels are rotating, for example, “Left!” Is output first. When the reel 2L is stopped, “Middle!” Is output next. When the reels 2L and 2C are stopped, "Right!" Is output. Regarding the other replays GR2 to 36 and the push order bell, a navigation image corresponding to the replay GR is displayed from the liquid crystal display 51 and a navigation sound is output from the speakers 53 and 54.

  As a navigation effect when winning replays GR1 to GR6, a push order (see FIG. 16) for winning the promoted replay according to the winning situation is notified.

  As a navigation effect when the replays GR11 to 15 are won, a push order (see FIG. 16) for winning a special replay according to the winning situation is notified.

  In addition, as a navigation effect when one of the push order bells is won, a push order (see FIG. 17) for reliably winning the right-down bell or the middle bell is notified.

  As described above, in the navigation effect in the present embodiment, a message reminiscent of an operation mode advantageous to the player is notified in the same mode regardless of the type of the navigation target role. For this reason, the player can operate in an operation mode that is advantageous to the player without being conscious of the type of the winning navigation target combination.

  Then, by executing the navigation effect, it is possible to avoid the promotion replay winning, the special replay winning, the bell winning, and the falling replay winning that are intentionally won.

  In addition, the aspect of a navigation effect is not restricted to such an aspect, What kind of thing may be sufficient if a player is distinguishable according to a winning condition. In addition, the navigation effect is not limited to what is displayed on the liquid crystal display 51, and may be executed using the effect effect LED 52, the speakers 53 and 54, the reel LED 55, and the like.

  In this embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 controls to ART (a state controlled by AT in RT2) when a target combination (in this embodiment, cherry, watermelon, one combination 1, one combination 2) is won. Navistock lottery to decide whether or not to do. In the navigation stock lottery, by determining the number of navigation stocks including 0, whether or not to provide the navigation stock number is determined.

  In addition, when the number of navigation stocks remains and when the number of navigation stocks is newly acquired, the number of navigation stocks acquired this time is added to the remaining number of navigation stocks.

  Navistock is the right to move to RT2 if RT1, and after the transition to RT2, a predetermined number of games (in this embodiment, 50 games which are the initial number of games and the number of games won in the extra lottery described later) The number of rights controlled by ART over the total number of games). After shifting to RT2, the navigation stock number is consumed (subtracted) by 1 to be controlled to ART for a predetermined number of games, during which a navigation effect described later is executed. For this reason, it can be said that the greater the determined number of navigation stocks, the higher the degree of advantage for the player.

  As shown in FIG. 18, the sub control unit 91 stores the number of navigation stocks in a predetermined area of the RAM 91c when one or more navigation stocks are determined in the navigation stock lottery. The sub-control unit 91 specifies whether or not to control to ART based on the presence or absence of the navigation stock in the RAM 91c. When one or more navigation stocks remain, after the ART winning notification is notified through the ART confirmation notification, the AT is first controlled. The state from the start of the AT control to the transition to RT2 is also referred to as a preparation state.

  In the preparation state, the sub control unit 91 executes a navigation effect when the target combination is won. At this time, in RT1, when the replays GR1 to 6 are won, the navigation effect is targeted, and when the replays GR1 to 6 are won, the push order for winning the promoted replay is notified by the navigation effect, so stop according to the notified push order. It is possible to shift from RT1 to RT0 by performing the operation. In addition, after the transition to the ready state, in any gaming state of RT0-2, when the push order bell is won, the push order for winning the bell is notified, so by performing a stop operation according to the notified push order It is also possible to win medals with certainty.

  After the promotion replay wins at RT1 and shifts to RT0, it becomes the target of the navigation effect when winning the replays GR11-15, and the push order for winning the special replay when winning the replays GR11-15 is notified by the navigation effect. It is possible to shift from RT0 to RT2 by performing a stop operation in accordance with the notified pressing order. In addition, as described above, when the push order bell is won, the push order for winning the bell is notified, so by performing a stop operation according to the notified push order, it is possible to reliably acquire medals, It is possible to avoid the transition outcome and the transition to RT1.

  When the special replay wins at RT0 and the process shifts to RT2, the preparation state is completed, and the ART control is started. An effect is executed, an initial value of the number of remaining games of ART (50 games in this embodiment) is set in the RAM 91c, and counting of the number of remaining games of ART is started. At this time, during the ART, it is interrupted by winning the special role, and the navigation stock is consumed (subtracted) by 1 except in the case of resuming when the bonus ends.

  After the ART starts, the push order for winning the bell when the push order bell is won will be notified. Therefore, by performing the stop operation in accordance with the notified push order, it is possible to reliably acquire medals and to make a transition. The outcome can be avoided and the transition to RT1 can be avoided.

  In addition, during the ART, when the winning combination of the target combination (cherry, watermelon, single-piece combination 1, single-piece combination 2 in this embodiment) is won, it is determined whether or not to add the number of ART games. Make a lottery. In the extra lottery, by determining one of the number of games from a plurality of games including 0, whether or not to increase the number of ART games, and the number of games to be added are determined. When it is determined that the number of ART games is to be increased by adding lottery, the determined number of games is added to the remaining number of games in the RAM 91c.

  Also, after the start of ART, every time one game is consumed, the number of remaining games is decremented by 1, and if a special role is won before the remaining number of games reaches 0, the fact that the special role has been won is confirmed. The bonus confirmation notification shown is performed. At the same time that the special role is won, RT2 ends, ART is interrupted, and the number of ART games is also interrupted. After that, the winning bonus of the selected special role is controlled and the corresponding bonus is controlled. When the transition is stopped at RT3, which transitions after the bonus ends, the ART confirmation is notified when the transition is made to RT1, and the AT control is resumed. Accordingly, the transition to RT2 is performed again through the preparation state, thereby performing the ART start effect and restarting the ART, and the counting of the remaining number of games of the ART is also restarted. In this case, the navigation stock is not consumed (subtracted) as described above.

  In addition, when the number of remaining games becomes 0 after the start of ART, if the number of remaining navigation stocks is not 0, a latent lottery for determining whether or not to hide ART is performed and it is not to be hidden. If determined, after executing the ART end effect indicating the end of the ART at the end of the game, the ART start effect is performed in response to the betting number setting operation of the next game, and the ART is restarted. Consumption (subtraction) is performed, and an initial value of the remaining number of ART games (50 games in this embodiment) is set in the RAM 91c, and counting of the remaining number of ART games is started.

  Also, if it is determined to be hidden in the latent lottery, the number of latent games for a maximum of 32 games is determined, and after completion of the ART, an ART end effect indicating the end of the ART is executed, and then the AT control is terminated. Let

  In this state, since the navigation effect is not executed, it is impossible to avoid the transition outcome at the time of winning the push order bell, and the transition outcome stops and the transition to RT1 is performed. RT2 will be maintained until the game stops, and if the transition is not stopped before the number of latent games has elapsed, the ART start effect will be performed in response to the betting number setting operation for the next game, and the ART will be resumed. Then, the navigation stock is consumed (subtracted), an initial value of the remaining number of ART games (50 games in this embodiment) is set in the RAM 91c, and counting of the remaining number of ART games is started.

  In addition, when it is determined to be hidden in the latent lottery, and the AT control is finished, the transition is stopped before the number of latent games elapses. At the same time, the AT control is resumed, and after transitioning to the RT 2 through the preparation state, the ART start effect is performed and the ART is resumed. An initial value (50 games in this embodiment) is set, and counting of the remaining number of ART games is started.

  Further, after the start of ART, if the number of remaining games becomes 0 and the number of remaining navigation stocks is 0, an ART end effect is executed and the control of AT is ended. As a result, the navigation effect is not executed, so that it is impossible to avoid the transitional outcome when the push order is won, and a series of AT and ART control is performed by transitioning to RT1 by stopping the transitional outcome. Will end.

  In addition, after the ART confirmation notification, in the stage before the preparation start state, that is, before the ART start effect is performed, the push order notified by the navigation effect is executed even though the navigation effect is executed when the replays GR1 to GR6 are won in RT1. If the promotion replay is not won as a result of performing the stop operation in a push order other than, other than the push order informed by the navigation effect in spite of the navigation effect being executed at the time of winning the replays GR11 to 15 in RT0 As a result of the stop operation in the order of pushing, if the special replay does not win and the fall replay wins and moves to RT1, the navigation effect is executed even though the navigation effect is executed when the push order bell is won in RT0. As a result of performing the stop operation in a pressing order other than the pressing order notified by, when the transition start stops and the process proceeds to RT1, the process until the process proceeds to RT2 When the replays GR1 to 6, the replays GR11 to 15, and the push order bell are selected, the navigation effect is executed. When the replays GR1 to 6 are selected in RT1, the stop operation is performed according to the navigation effect. It is possible to shift to RT0, and when replays GR11 to 15 are elected in RT0, it is possible to shift to RT2 by performing a stop operation according to the navigation effect.

  In addition, as a result of performing the stop operation in the push order other than the push order notified by the navigation effect during the ART after the transition to RT2, the navigation effect was executed at the time of the push order bell winning, Even when the transition is stopped and the transition is made to RT1, the navigation effect is executed when the replay GR1 to 6, the replay GR11 to 15, and the push order bell are won until the transition to RT2. When replays GR1 to 6 are won at RT1, it is possible to shift to RT0 by performing a stop operation according to the navigation effect, and when replays GR11 to 15 are won at RT0, By performing a stop operation according to the navigation effect, it is possible to shift to RT2.

  As described above, in this embodiment, the sub-control unit 91 controls the ART, which is advantageous for the player, based on the navigation stock, separately from the BB that shifts in accordance with the winning of the special role. Compared to BB, ART has a lower expected increase in medals per game (the average increase per game minus the average decrease per game), but stays on the whole The ratio (the ratio of the number of games controlled by ART in a predetermined number of games (for example, 10,000 games)) is set high.

  In addition, in this embodiment, after RT notification with the highest rate of staying is performed, ART is not immediately transferred to RT2, which is advantageous to the player, but then replays GR1 to GR6 are elected at RT1, The promotion replay wins and moves to RT0, and replays GR11 to 15 are elected at RT0 and the special replay wins to shift to RT2 for the first time. At this point, ART control starts and the remaining number of games in ART Counting is started.

  If a special combination is won after the start of the ART control, the RT2 is terminated at that time, and the ART control is interrupted accordingly. After the bonus ends, when the ART is restarted, the ART confirmation notification is performed and the AT control is started, but in this case as well, the player does not immediately shift to RT2, which is advantageous to the player, but stays in RT3. If it is, the transition outcome is stopped and the routine proceeds to RT1, and if it stays at RT1, the replays GR1 to 6 are elected, the promotion replay wins and transitions to RT0, and further the replays GR11 to 15 at RT0. Is won and the special replay wins, the process proceeds to RT2. At this point, the ART control is started and the remaining number of ART games is started.

  In addition, if the navigation stock remains after the end of the ART control, the latent lottery is performed, and if it is determined that the latent lottery is not to be latent, the ART control is immediately resumed while the latent control is resumed. When it is determined that the latent game is to be latently determined, the ART control is not resumed immediately, but the AT control is terminated once, and after the number of latent games has elapsed, an ART confirmation notification is made. If it is maintained, the ART control will be resumed. However, if it has shifted to RT1, replays GR1 to GR6 will be elected, the promotion replay will win and shift to RT0, and further replay will be performed at RT0. When GR 11-15 wins and the special replay wins, the process shifts to RT 2 for the first time, and at this time, the ART control is resumed.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14, the main control unit 41 receives the replays GR1 and 2 that will receive a promotion replay that will shift to RT0 in the order of stop in which the left reel is the first stop in RT1. The winning probability is set to be lower than the winning probabilities of replays GR3 to GR6 for which the promoted replay that shifts to RT0 in the order of stop with the middle reel or the right reel as the first stop is won. In addition, as shown in FIG. 13, the winning probability of the left bells 1 to 4 that allows the small role to be reliably won in the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop is that the middle reel or the right reel is the first. It is set lower than the winning probabilities of the middle bells 1 to 4 and the right bells 1 to 4 in which the small combination can be reliably won in the order of stopping.

  On the other hand, the sub-control unit 91 stops the middle reel or the right reel in the first stop in the normal state where neither the AT nor the ART is controlled and the navigation effect in the normal state is not executed (hereinafter referred to as the stop order). When the stop operation is performed in the case of an irregular press, the penalty period is controlled over a certain period (10 games in this embodiment). The sub-control unit 91 may execute a navigation effect even in a normal state where it is not controlled by AT or ART, and a navigation effect that notifies the stop order in which the middle reel or the right reel is first stopped is executed. Accordingly, when the stop operation is performed in the stop order in which the middle reel or the right reel is the first stop, there is no control during the penalty period.

  During the penalty period, even if the winning role is won, the navigation stock lottery will not be performed, in the normal state where neither the AT nor the ART is controlled, and in the situation where the navigation effect in the normal state is not executed, the irregular push In this situation, the stop operation in the stop order with the left reel as the first stop is given to the player. This makes it possible to prevent the shift to RT0 or RT2 even if RT is not controlled by RT1 or to win a small role with a high probability when the push order bell is won. .

  In the present embodiment, in RT1, which occupies most of the game, the stop operation is performed in the stop order in which the middle reel is the first stop or the stop order in which the right reel is the first stop. Therefore, the player is more likely to stop in the stop order with the left reel as the first stop than when the player operates in the stop order with the middle reel as the first stop or in the stop order with the right reel as the first stop. It is designed so that the expected value of the game value that can be acquired in the game is increased. The expected value specified here is not the expected value of only one game in RT1, but the game that takes into consideration the granting of rights (navigator stock) to the ART obtained after that one game is also continued. Shows the expected value. Therefore, the player should perform the stop operation in the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop.

  In other words, in this embodiment, it becomes easy to shift to RT0 or RT2 having a high replay probability by pressing irregularly. However, since a penalty is incurred for granting the navigation stock, in RT1, the left reel is stopped in the first stop order. When the stop operation is performed, the expected value is higher for the player than when the stop operation is performed in the stop order in which the middle reel is the first stop or in the stop order in which the right reel is the first stop.

  In addition, if the stop operation is performed in the order of stopping with the left reel as the first stop, the probability of being given the right (navigator stock) to become an ART more advantageous to the player is the stop order in which the middle reel is the first stop or Since it is set to be higher than when the stop operation is performed in the stop order with the right reel as the first stop, it is better for the player to perform the stop operation in the stop order with the left reel as the first stop.

  Further, in this embodiment, as described later, only when a single combination 1 or a single combination 2 is selected, when the stop operation is performed in the order of stopping in the middle left and right, a single combination 1 or a single combination 2 is won. A stop mode capable of recognizing whether or not the player has won is derived. For this reason, it becomes easier for the player to specify a situation advantageous to the player by performing the stop operation in the left middle right stop order, so that the player should perform the stop operation in the left middle right stop order.

  In addition, when the stop operation is performed in the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop as will be described later, there is a possibility that the winning combination may not be won depending on the timing of the stop operation of the middle reel and the right reel. When the left reel is stopped at the time of winning, a stop mode in which winning of watermelon is suggested is derived. For this reason, by performing the stop operation with the left reel as the first stop, it becomes easier for the player to identify the situation where the stop operation needs to be performed for the winning role in the middle reel and the right reel. It is better to perform the stop operation for the first stop.

  Further, the sub-control unit 91 performs irregular pressing, that is, sets the left reel to the first stop, in the normal state in which neither the AT nor the ART is controlled and the navigation effect in the normal state is not executed. When a stop operation is performed in a stop order other than the stop order, a warning notification is performed. In the warning notification, a notification is given that a penalty is given when a stop operation is performed outside the specified stop order.

  In the present embodiment, the irregular push, that is, the stop with the left reel as the first stop is performed in the normal state in which neither the AT nor the ART is controlled and the navigation effect in the normal state is not executed. Although it is configured to be controlled in the penalty period by performing the stop operation in a stop order other than the order, for example, if the stop operation is performed only in the stop order other than the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop, the penalty period The middle bell or the right bell is elected, and the stop operation is performed in the stop order other than the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop. As a result, the right falling bell or the upper bell is awarded and a medal is awarded. Only when one of the replays GR1 to GR6 is elected and the stop operation is performed in a stop order other than the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop, as a result of the promotion replay winning and moving to RT0, that is, the left reel As a result of performing the stop operation in a stop order other than the stop order in which the first stop is made, it may be configured to control during the penalty period only when it is actually advantageous to the player. Thus, even if the player makes a stop operation other than the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop, no penalty will be given if the player does not profit, and the stop order other than the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop It is possible to prevent the player from being dissatisfied with the game due to the penalty imposed even if the stop operation is performed in the above case.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the navigation effect is executed in the normal state in which neither the AT nor the ART is controlled, the stop operation is performed in the stop order in which the left reel is the first stop. As long as there is no penalty, but when the navigation effect is executed in a state where neither the AT nor the ART is controlled, the stop operation is performed in a sequence other than the stop order notified by the navigation effect. In addition, it is possible to adopt a configuration in which a penalty is given, and with such a configuration, gameability as designed can be realized. For example, when replay GR1 or replay GR2 is won at RT1, there is a possibility that the promoted replay wins and moves to RT0 by performing a stop operation in the order of stop with the left reel as the first stop. In such a case, it is possible to prompt a stop operation in the stop order according to the navigation effect by giving a penalty when the stop operation is performed in the stop order ignoring the navigation effect, and in a state that is not controlled by the AT It is possible to prevent transition to RT0 or RT2.

  As described above, in this embodiment, when a stop operation is performed in the order of stoppage in the middle left and right, whether a winning combination of one player 1 or winning of one player 2 is not given a penalty. Can be derived, and when the left reel stops, it is also possible to derive a stop mode that suggests winning a watermelon, which is most advantageous for the player. Therefore, the stop order in the middle left and right is set as the recommended stop order recommended for the player.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the stop operation is performed in the left middle right stop order which is the recommended stop order described above, the left at the timing of No. 6 to 10 (the timing at which the No. 6 to No. 10 symbol is located in the lower stage). When the reel stop operation is performed, the expected value for the medal acquisition is higher than when the left reel stop operation is performed at timings other than Nos. 6 to 10, which is advantageous in acquiring the medal.

  That is, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order, when the small reels won in the internal lottery are awarded, if the stop operation of the left reel is performed at the timing of 6th to 10th, the timing other than 6th to 10th is performed. Compared to the case where the left reel is stopped, it is possible to win the most types of small roles. Therefore, the medal payout rate is higher than when the stop operation is performed at a timing other than No. 6-10.

  Specifically, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order, if the stop operation of the left reel is performed at the timing of No. 6 to 10, the one-piece combination 1 and the one-piece combination 2, the middle bell 1 to 4, the right For small combinations other than the bells 1 to 4, the small combinations won in the internal lottery can be put into a winning state. However, if the left reel is stopped at timings other than Nos. 6 to 10, the types of small combinations that can be won are reduced. For this reason, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order and the left reel is stopped at the timing of Nos. 6 to 10, the small part is missed as much as possible (the prize is awarded even though the small part is won). It is possible to suppress the occurrence of the failure). Specifically, a winning can be made as follows depending on the type of symbols stopped on the winning line LN.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the pulling range of one symbol of “replay” or “plum” of the left reel that constitutes the bell or the right-down bell of the left bell in the left reel is included in the timing of No. 6-10. When winning the bell or the left bell, if the left reel is stopped at the timing of No. 6 to 10, the symbols constituting the bell or the left bell of the left bell are always stopped on the winning line LN in the left reel. . For this reason, the bell or the left bell can be won by performing the stop operation of the left reel at the timing of Nos. 6 to 10.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the “watermelon”, “black 7” or “white 7” of the left reel constituting the middle stage watermelon in the left reel, and the “downward watermelon” and “left of the left reel constituting the upper stage watermelon in the left reel”. The pull-in range of one of the symbols “Bell” is included in the timing of No. 6-10, so when winning the watermelon, if the left reel is stopped at the timing of No. 6-10, The symbols composing the middle watermelon or the symbols composing the right-down watermelon and the upper watermelon in the left reel always stop on the winning line LN. For this reason, by performing a stop operation of the left reel at the timing of Nos. 6 to 10, any one of the middle-stage watermelon, the right-down watermelon, and the upper-stage watermelon can be awarded.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, since the pull-in range of “BAR” of the left reel constituting the lower cherries in the left reel is included in the timings of Nos. 6 to 10, when the cherry is won, the left reel is recommended at the recommended stop timing. When the stop operation is performed, “BAR” on the left reel can always be stopped on the pay line LN. For this reason, the lower cherries can be won by performing the operation of stopping the left reel at the 6th to 10th timings.

  In this way, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order, the above small role can be won by performing the stop operation of the left reel at the timing of No. 6 to 10, but when winning the cherry, If the stop operation of the left reel is performed at a timing other than No. 6-10, the “BAR” of the left reel is out of the pull-in range, the “BAR” of the left reel cannot be stopped on the winning line LN, and the lower cherry is I will miss it. For this reason, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order, the left reel stop operation is performed at a timing other than 6th to 10th when the left reel is stopped at the 6th to 10th timing. More advantageous than sometimes.

  On the other hand, when the stop operation is performed at the timing of Nos. 6 to 10, “Black 7” that constitutes the single winning combination 1 and the single winning combination 2 in the left reel cannot be stopped on the winning line. 1, the number of medals awarded at the time of winning a prize is less than the number of medals awarded at the time of winning a cherry. In addition, the combined probability of the winning combination of 1 player 1 and the winning probability of 1 player 2 is set higher than the winning probability of cherry, but is less than twice the winning probability of cherry. The composition pattern of the left reel and the middle reel of the single role is the same, but the composition pattern of the right reel is different and it is placed beyond the pull-in range, so it is elected to 1 single role 1 and 1 double role 2 However, if you don't know which is winning, you can't win the winning one-piece combination 1 or one-piece combination 2, so the "Black 7" that makes up the one-piece combination 1, and the one-piece combination 2 It is more advantageous to perform the left reel stop operation at the 6th to 10th timing than to perform the left reel stop operation at the timing other than the 6th to 10th time which is the drawing range.

  As described above, in this embodiment, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order, when the stop operation is performed on the left reel that is the first stop at the timing of No. 6 to 10, the most types of small roles Can be won, and the expected value for winning a medal is also high, which is the most advantageous for the player. The recommended stop timing is set.

  In this embodiment, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order and the stop operation is performed in the operation mode in which the stop operation of the left reel is performed at the recommended stop timing, the stop operation is performed in another operation mode. More advantageous than the case. Hereinafter, an operation mode in which the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order and the left reel is stopped at the recommended stop timing is referred to as a recommended operation mode.

  In the present embodiment, the cherry symbols that can be missed on the left reel, the winning combination 1, and the winning feature 1 are the symbols of the cherry and the winning symbols 1 and 2. Although it is the structure arrange | positioned in the position which cannot be drawn in simultaneously, for example in the 1st-3rd role which may be missed in a left reel, the composition symbol of the 1st role and the 2nd role Are arranged at a position where they can be withdrawn at the same time, and the composition symbol of the third combination, the configuration symbol of the first combination and the configuration symbol of the second combination are arranged at a position where they cannot be withdrawn simultaneously. Since the timing at which the first symbol and the second symbol can be drawn simultaneously is more advantageous than the other timings, the recommended stop timing is obtained. Even in this case, the case where the third combination is won in consideration of the winning probabilities of the first to third combinations and the number of medals awarded at the time of winning each of the first to third combinations is better. If it is advantageous, the recommended stop timing is the timing at which the configuration symbol of the third role can be drawn.

  In the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 is in a recommended operation mode, that is, in a recommended stop order, when one of the single winning combination 1, the single winning combination 2, and the watermelon is won (including simultaneous winning with a special winning combination). When the left reel is stopped at the left middle right stop order and at the recommended stop timing of No. 6-10, the first stop reel, that is, the left reel stop control, and the second stop reel ( The same stop control is performed as the stop control of the middle reel. In particular, for the second stop reel, stop control is performed using the same stop control table.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 19, when winning one of the one-piece combination 1, one-piece combination 2, and watermelon (including simultaneous selection with a special combination), the left reel is set to the first stop, and the left reel is 6th to 10th timings, that is, the pull-in range of the stop position where the “cherry” stops at the lower stage of the left reel and the pull-in range of the stop position where the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage, When the left reel is stopped at a timing that is outside the pull-in range of the stop position at which “Black 7” constituting the left reel of the double role 2 stops at the middle stage, the “watermelon” is stopped at the upper stage of the left reel. Take control.

  At this time, even if 1-piece combination 1 and 1-piece combination 2 are elected, the stop operation is performed at the timing when the left reel is out of the drawing range of “Black 7” that constitutes 1-piece combination 1 and 1-piece combination 2 Therefore, “Black 7” does not stop in the middle of the left reel, and even if 1-player 1 and 1-player 2 are elected, 1-player 1 and 1-player 2 will win Absent.

  Then, in the situation where the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel and the middle reel and the right reel are rotating, the timing of No. 9-18, that is, the pulling range of the stop position where the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage of the middle reel When a middle reel stop operation is performed at the same timing, control is performed to stop the “watermelon” at the middle stage of the middle reel. On the other hand, at the timing of No. 8, that is, not the pull-in range of the stop position at which the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage of the middle reel, but at the timing of the pull-in range of the stop position at which the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the middle reel. When a stop operation is performed, control is performed to stop the “watermelon” on the upper stage of the middle reel. When the middle reel is stopped at timings 0 to 7, 19, and 20, control is performed to stop “orange” at the middle stage of the middle reel.

  If none of the one-piece combination 1, one-piece combination 2, or watermelon is won, the “watermelon” stops on the upper stage of the left reel, and the middle reel and the right reel are rotating. Even if the stop operation of the middle reel is performed at the timing of No.18, that is, if one of the one-piece combination 1 and the one-piece combination 2 is won, the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage of the middle reel. Even if a middle reel stop operation is performed at the timing of No. 8, that is, if one of the one-piece combination 1 and one-piece combination 2 is won, the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the middle reel. Control is performed to stop symbols other than "watermelon" in both the middle and upper reels. For this reason, the left reel is stopped first and the middle reel is stopped in the order of first stop. The “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel, and the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage or the upper stage of the middle reel. In this case, winning of either one-piece combination 1, one-piece combination 2, or watermelon is suggested.

  As shown in FIG. 20, at the time of winning one-piece combination 1 (including simultaneous winning with a special combination), the left reel is set to the first stop, and the “watermelon” stops on the upper stage of the left reel. In the situation where the “watermelon” stops in the middle and the right reel is rotating, that is, in the situation where the winning of the one-piece combination 1, the one-piece combination 2 or the watermelon is suggested, the timing of No. 13-20, that is, the right reel Among the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages, the timing at which the stop position becomes the pull-in range at any stop position, the 0th timing, that is, any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the right reel Of the stop positions where "watermelon" stops, the timing at which the stop position where "watermelon" stops at the middle or lower stage of the right reel is within the pull-in range, the 12th timing, that is, the upper, middle or lower stage of the right reel. If the stop operation of the right reel is performed at a timing where only the stop position where the “watermelon” stops at the upper or middle of the right reel among the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops, the middle stage of the right reel To stop the "watermelon".

  In addition, the first timing, that is, the timing at which the “watermelon” stops at the lower stage of the right reel among the stop positions at which the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the right reel, The right reel at the timing of No. 11, that is, the stop position where the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the right reel among the stop positions where the "watermelon" stops at any of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel. When the stop operation is performed, the “watermelon” is not stopped at any of the upper, middle and lower positions of the right reel, and “orange” or “BAR” is stopped at the middle of the right reel. Do.

  Further, when the right reel is stopped at timings 2 to 10, control is performed to stop “orange” or “BAR” in the middle of the right reel.

  As shown in FIG. 21, at the time of winning one-piece combination 1 (including simultaneous winning with a special combination), the left reel is set to the first stop, and the “watermelon” is stopped at the upper stage of the left reel. In the situation where the “watermelon” is stopped at the top and the right reel is rotating, that is, in the situation where the winning of the one-piece combination 1, the one-piece combination 2 or the watermelon is suggested, the timing of No. 13-20, ie the right reel Among the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages, the timing at which the stop position becomes the pull-in range at any stop position, the 0th timing, that is, any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the right reel Of the stop positions where "watermelon" stops, the timing at which the stop position where "watermelon" stops at the middle or lower stage of the right reel is within the pull-in range, the 12th timing, that is, the upper, middle or lower stage of the right reel. If the stop operation of the right reel is performed at a timing where only the stop position where the “watermelon” stops at the upper or middle of the right reel among the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops, the middle stage of the right reel To stop the "watermelon".

  In addition, the first timing, that is, the timing at which the “watermelon” stops at the lower stage of the right reel among the stop positions at which the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the right reel, The right reel at the timing of No. 11, that is, the stop position where the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the right reel among the stop positions where the "watermelon" stops at any of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel. When the stop operation is performed, the “watermelon” is not stopped at any of the upper, middle and lower positions of the right reel, and “orange” or “BAR” is stopped at the middle of the right reel. Do.

  Further, when the right reel is stopped at timings 2 to 10, control is performed to stop “orange” or “BAR” in the middle of the right reel.

  When the stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel, the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage of the middle reel, and the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage of the right reel. The stop mode and the stop mode in which the “watermelon” stops on the upper stage of the left reel, the “watermelon” stops on the upper stage of the middle reel, and the “watermelon” stops on the middle stage of the right reel, It is designed to stop only when the winning combination 2 is won, and when the stopping operation is performed in the order of left middle right, if neither the single winning combination 1 nor the single winning combination 2 is won, the upper stage of the left reel The "watermelon" stops at the middle of the middle reel, the "watermelon" stops at the middle of the middle reel, and the "watermelon" stops at the middle of the right reel. "Watermelon" stops at the stop, "Watermelon" stops at the middle of the right reel When the stop operation is performed in the order of left middle right without any stop, it will be suggested that one winning combination of one single combination 1 or single single combination 2 is suggested by becoming such a stop mode. Become. In the present embodiment, these stop modes, that is, a stop mode in which one winning combination of one-sheet combination 1 or one-sheet combination 2 is suggested is called a weak chance.

  As shown in FIG. 22, at the time of winning one-piece combination 2 (including simultaneous winning with a special combination), the left reel is set to the first stop, and the “watermelon” stops on the upper stage of the left reel, In the situation where the “watermelon” stops in the middle stage and the right reel is rotating, any of timings 13 to 20, that is, any stop position where the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel The stop position also falls within the pull-in range, the 11th timing, that is, the stop where the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the right reel among the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops at any of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel. The timing at which only the position is drawn, the timing of No. 12, that is, the “watermelon” at the upper or middle stage of the right reel among the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel There If it is a stop operation of the right reel at the timing when the pull-in range only stopping position for stopping controls to stop the "watermelon" in the upper part of the right reel.

  In addition, the timing of No. 0, that is, the stop position where the "watermelon" stops at the middle or lower stage of the right reel among the stop positions where the "watermelon" stops at any of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel, is the pull-in range. When the stop operation of the right reel is performed at the timing, control is performed to stop the “watermelon” at the middle stage of the right reel.

  In addition, the timing of No. 1, that is, the stop position where the “watermelon” stops at the lower stage of the right reel out of the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel, When the right reel is stopped, the “watermelon” is not stopped at any of the upper, middle, and lower positions of the right reel, and “orange” or “BAR” is stopped at the middle of the right reel. Take control.

  Further, when the right reel is stopped at timings 2 to 10, control is performed to stop “orange” or “BAR” in the middle of the right reel.

  As shown in FIG. 23, at the time of winning the single-piece combination 2 (including the simultaneous combination with the special combination), the left reel is set to the first stop, and the “watermelon” is stopped at the upper stage of the left reel. In the situation where the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage and the right reel is rotating, the timing of Nos. 13 to 20, that is, any stop position where the “watermelon” stops at any of the upper, middle, or lower stage of the right reel The stop position also falls within the pull-in range, timing 0, that is, the "watermelon" stops at the middle or lower stage of the right reel among the stop positions where the "watermelon" stops at any of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel. The timing at which the stop position is the pull-in range, the first timing, that is, the "watermelon" is at the lower stage of the right reel among the stop positions at which the "watermelon" stops at any of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel If the stop operation of the right reel is at a timing when the stop position only pull-in range for stop controls to stop the "watermelon" in the lower part of the right reel.

  Further, only the stop position at which the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage or the lower stage of the right reel among the stop positions at which the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper stage, the middle stage, and the lower stage of the right reel is the pull-in range. When the stop operation of the right reel is performed at the timing, control is performed to stop the “watermelon” at the middle stage of the right reel.

  Further, the timing of No. 11, that is, the timing at which the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the right reel is the pull-in range only at the stop position at which the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the right reel. When the right reel is stopped, the “watermelon” is not stopped at any of the upper, middle, and lower positions of the right reel, and “orange” or “BAR” is stopped at the middle of the right reel. Take control.

  Further, when the right reel is stopped at timings 2 to 10, control is performed to stop “orange” or “BAR” in the middle of the right reel.

  When the stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel, the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage of the middle reel, and the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the right reel. In the stop mode and the stop mode in which “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel, “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the middle reel, and “watermelon” stops at the lower stage of the right reel, single-player combination 2 was won When the stop operation is performed in the order of left, middle and right, and the single player 2 is not won, the “watermelon” stops on the upper stage of the left reel and the middle reel The "watermelon" stops at the middle of the right reel, and the "watermelon" stops at the top of the right reel. The "watermelon" stops at the top of the left reel, and the "watermelon" stops at the top of the middle reel. The stop mode in which the “watermelon” stops in the lower row is not stopped If you make a stop operation at the left in the right order, that made these stop mode, so that the one officer 2 prize is suggested. In the present embodiment, these stop modes, that is, the stop mode that suggests winning of the one-piece combination 2 are called strong chances.

  In addition, even if one player 2 wins, only the weak chance eye and the strong chance eye can be stopped, but if the stop operation is performed at a timing when the strong chance eye cannot be stopped, it is weak The chance eyes will stop.

  As shown in FIG. 24, when a watermelon is won (including simultaneous winning with a special role), the left reel is set to the first stop, and the “watermelon” is stopped at the upper stage of the left reel, and “ In the situation where the “watermelon” is stopped and the right reel is rotating, that is, in the situation where the winning of the one-piece combination 1, the one-piece combination 2 or the watermelon is suggested, the timing of No. 13-20, that is, the upper and middle stages of the right reel , The timing at which the “watermelon” stops at any one of the lower tiers, the timing that is the pull-in range at any stop position, the timing of No. 0, that is, the “watermelon” at any of the upper, middle, and lower tiers of the right reel Of the stopping positions to stop, the timing at which the "watermelon" stops at the middle or lower stage of the right reel is the drawing range only, the first timing, that is, the upper stage, middle stage, or lower stage of the right reel If the stop operation of the right reel is performed at the timing that only the stop position where the “watermelon” stops at the lower position of the right reel among the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops, the “watermelon” is displayed at the lower stage of the right reel. Control to stop. At this time, “Bell-Watermelon-Black 7 / White 7” stops on the winning line LN, and the right-down watermelon wins.

  In addition, the timing of No. 11, that is, the timing at which the "watermelon" stops at any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the right reel, and only the stop position at which the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the right reel, No. 12 timing, that is, the timing at which the "watermelon" stops at any of the upper, middle and lower tiers of the right reel, and the stop position where the "watermelon" stops at the upper or middle tier of the right reel is within the pull-in range. When the right reel is stopped, the “watermelon” is not stopped at any of the upper, middle, and lower positions of the right reel, and “orange” or “BAR” is stopped at the middle of the right reel. Take control.

  Further, when the right reel is stopped at timings 2 to 10, control is performed to stop “orange” or “BAR” in the middle of the right reel.

  As shown in FIG. 25, when a watermelon is won (including simultaneous winning with a special role), the left reel is set to the first stop, and “watermelon” stops on the upper stage of the left reel, and “ In the situation where the “watermelon” is stopped and the right reel is rotating, that is, in the situation where the winning of the one-piece combination 1, the one-piece combination 2 or the watermelon is suggested, the timing of No. 13-20, that is, the upper and middle stages of the right reel The timing at which the “watermelon” stops at any one of the lower tiers is within the pull-in range at any stop position, that is, the 11th timing, that is, the “watermelon” is present at any of the upper, middle, and lower tiers of the right reel. Of the stopping positions to stop, the timing at which the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the right reel becomes the pulling range only, the timing of No. 12, that is, the If the right reel is stopped at a timing that is within the pull-in range only at the stop position where the “watermelon” stops at the upper or middle position of the right reel among the stop positions where the “water” stops, the “watermelon” To stop "". At this time, “Black 7 / White 7-Watermelon-Watermelon” stops on the winning line LN, and the upper watermelon wins.

  Further, only the stop position at which the “watermelon” stops at the lower or middle stage of the right reel among the stop positions at which the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel is within the pull-in range. Timing, No. 1 timing, that is, the stop position where the "watermelon" stops at the lower stage of the right reel out of the stop positions where the "watermelon" stops at any of the upper, middle and lower stages of the right reel. When the right reel is stopped, the “watermelon” is not stopped at any of the upper, middle, and lower positions of the right reel, and “orange” or “BAR” is stopped at the middle of the right reel. Take control.

  Further, when the right reel is stopped at timings 2 to 10, control is performed to stop “orange” or “BAR” in the middle of the right reel.

  When winning a watermelon, if the stop operation is performed in the order of left and right, until the second stop, “Watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel, as in the case of winning 1 and 1 and 2 In the former case, the "watermelon" stops at the middle stage of the middle reel, or the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the left reel and the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the middle reel. In the case of the third stop, the “watermelon” does not stop at the middle stage or the upper stage, and in the latter case, the “watermelon” does not stop at the middle stage or the lower stage at the third stop. Opportunities and strong chances do not stop.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the main control unit 41 is in a stop order in the left and right directions other than the recommended stop order at the time of winning one of the one-piece combination 1 and the one-piece combination 2 (including simultaneous winning with the special combination). If the "watermelon" stops in the upper order of the left reel, and the "watermelon" stops in the upper left, the recommended stop order, and the "watermelon" in the upper part of the left reel Unlike the case where is stopped, the same stop control is performed on the right reel and the middle reel.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 26, in the situation where the “watermelon” is stopped at the upper stage of the left reel and the middle reel and the right reel are rotating at the time of winning the one-piece combination 1 and the one-piece combination 2, Control to stop the "watermelon" at the upper stage of the right reel when the right reel is stopped at the timing of the turn number, that is, the timing at which the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the right reel. . On the other hand, at timings 0 and 1, that is, not the pull-in range of the stop position at which the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the right reel, but at the timing of the pull-in range of the stop position at which the “watermelon” stops at the lower stage of the right reel When a reel stop operation is performed, control is performed to stop the “watermelon” at the lower stage of the right reel. When the operation of stopping the middle reel is performed at timings 2 to 10, control is performed to stop the “bell” at the middle stage of the right reel.

  As shown in FIG. 27, when winning one-piece combination 1 and one-piece combination 2 (including simultaneous winning with a special combination), the left reel is set to the first stop, and “watermelon” is stopped on the upper stage of the left reel. In the situation where the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the right reel and the middle reel is rotating, the timing “10-17” is stopped, that is, the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper stage, middle stage, and lower stage of the middle reel. At any stop position, the timing that is the pull-in range, the 9th timing, that is, the upper or middle stage of the middle reel among the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops at any of the upper, middle, or lower stage of the middle reel The timing at which the "watermelon" stops only becomes the pull-in range, the 18th timing, that is, the middle reel among the stop positions at which the "watermelon" stops at any one of the upper, middle and lower stages of the middle reel. If the "watermelon" in the lower is the middle reel stop operation at the timing at which the pull-in range only stopping position for stopping controls to stop the "watermelon" in the middle of the center reel.

  In addition, the timing of No. 8, that is, the timing at which the "watermelon" stops at any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the middle reel is the drawing range only at the stop position at which the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the middle reel, The middle reel at the timing of No. 19, that is, the stop position where the “watermelon” stops at the lower stage of the middle reel out of the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops at any of the upper, middle and lower stages of the middle reel. When the stop operation is performed, the “watermelon” is not stopped at any of the upper, middle and lower positions of the middle reel, and “replay” is stopped at the middle stage of the middle reel.

  In addition, when the middle reel is stopped at the timing of Nos. 0 to 7 and 20, control for stopping “replay” at the middle stage of the middle reel is performed.

  As shown in FIG. 28, when winning 1-piece combination 1 and 1-piece combination 2 (including simultaneous winning with special combination), the left reel is set to the first stop, and “watermelon” is stopped on the upper stage of the left reel. In the situation where the “watermelon” is stopped at the lower stage of the right reel and the middle reel is rotating, the timing “10-17” is stopped, that is, the “watermelon” is stopped at any one of the upper, middle and lower stages of the middle reel. At any stop position among the positions, the timing that is the pull-in range, the timing of No. 8, that is, the “watermelon” at the upper stage of the middle reel among the stop positions at which the “watermelon” stops at any one of the upper, middle, and lower stages of the middle reel “9”, that is, at the upper, middle or lower stage of the middle reel, the upper or middle stage of the middle reel among the stop positions where the “watermelon” stops. If the squid "is the middle reel stop operation at the timing at which the pull-in range only stopping position for stopping controls to stop the" watermelon "in the upper part of the center reel.

  Further, only the stop position at which the “watermelon” stops at the middle or lower stage of the middle reel among the stop positions at which the “watermelon” stops at any of the 18th timing, that is, the upper stage, middle stage, or lower stage of the middle reel, is the drawing range. Timing, No. 19 timing, that is, the timing at which the "watermelon" stops at any one of the upper, middle and lower stages of the middle reel is the pulling range only at the stop position where the "watermelon" stops at the lower stage of the middle reel When the middle reel is stopped, the “watermelon” is not stopped at any of the upper, middle and lower positions of the middle reel, and “replay” is stopped at the middle stage of the middle reel.

  In addition, when the middle reel is stopped at the timing of Nos. 0 to 7 and 20, control for stopping “replay” at the middle stage of the middle reel is performed.

  In other words, if a stop operation is performed in the order of stoppage in the left and right during the winning of the single winning combination 1 and the single winning combination 2, the same stopping mode is obtained at any winning, and whether the single winning combination 1 is won from the stopping mode. It is not possible to recognize whether or not the one-player combination 2 has been won.

  In this way, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended operation mode, the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel, the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage of the middle reel, or the “watermelon” at the upper stage of the left reel. Is stopped, and “watermelon” is stopped at the upper stage of the middle reel, so that one of the one-piece combination 1, the one-piece combination 2, and the watermelon is suggested.

  In the situation where the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel, the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage of the middle reel, and the right reel is rotating, the “watermelon” can be placed at either the upper, middle or lower stage of the right reel. When the stop operation of the right reel is performed at a timing that allows the stop position to be stopped, the “watermelon” stops at the middle stage of the right reel, and the stop mode becomes a weak chance. One winning combination 2 is suggested, and “watermelon” stops at the top of the right reel, and the stopping mode becomes a strong chance, and the winning of single piece 2 is suggested, and “watermelon” is displayed at the bottom of the right reel. By stopping, the right-down watermelon will win. In addition, in the situation where the “watermelon” is stopped at the upper stage of the left reel, the “watermelon” is stopped at the middle stage of the middle reel, and the right reel is rotating, the upper stage, the middle stage or the lower stage of the right reel when the single-role winning combination is won. If the right reel is stopped at a timing where the stop position where the “watermelon” stops can be pulled into any of the above, the “watermelon” will always stop at the upper stage of the right reel and the stop mode will be a strong chance. Therefore, it is possible to distinguish and recognize whether the single winning combination 1 or the single winning combination 2 has been won depending on whether the weak chance eye has stopped or the strong chance eye has stopped.

  In the situation where the “watermelon” stops on the upper stage of the left reel, the “watermelon” stops on the upper stage of the middle reel, and the right reel is rotating, the “watermelon” can be placed on the upper, middle or lower stage of the right reel. When the stop operation of the right reel is performed at a timing that allows the stop position to be stopped, the “watermelon” stops in the middle of the right reel, suggesting that either one-piece combination 1 or one-piece combination 2 wins Then, the “watermelon” stops at the lower stage of the right reel, which suggests that the winning combination of 1 sheet 2 is achieved, and the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the right reel, so that the upper stage watermelon wins. In addition, when a single-player 2 win is selected, the “watermelon” stops at the top of the left reel, the “watermelon” stops at the top of the middle reel, and the top, middle, or bottom of the right reel is rotating. If the stop operation of the right reel is performed at a timing at which the stop position at which the “watermelon” stops can be pulled in any of the above, the “watermelon” will always stop at the lower stage of the right reel, so that the stop mode is a strong chance. Therefore, it is possible to distinguish and recognize whether the single winning combination 1 or the single winning combination 2 has been won depending on whether the weak chance eye has stopped or the strong chance eye has stopped.

  In addition, when the stop operation is performed in the order of stoppage in the left and right, that is, the stop order that is not the recommended stop order, the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel, and the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the right reel, Alternatively, “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel and “watermelon” stops at the lower stage of the right reel. Whichever of the winning combinations 1 or 2 is won, the stopping position for stopping the middle reel is common, so whether the winning combination 1 or 1 is won from the stop mode. , Can not be recognized separately.

  In the internal lottery performed by the main control unit 41 of this embodiment, both the watermelon, the one-piece combination 1, and the one-piece combination 2 can be won simultaneously with the special combination, but the ratio of winning simultaneously with the special combination (watermelon / one-piece combination 1). The probability of winning / single piece 2 alone and the latter of the sum of the probability that watermelon / one piece combination 1/1 and double piece 2 are won at the same time as the special combination are different.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 29, the ratio that watermelon is simultaneously elected with special roles is about 11.5%, and the ratio that one piece 1 is simultaneously elected with special roles is about 59.3%, and one piece 2 is The ratio of winning simultaneously with special roles is 100%.

  In other words, the ratio of one winning combination with one special role is set higher than the ratio that watermelon wins with a special role at the same time, and when the weak chance stops when a watermelon wins. However, it is now possible to expect a special role. In addition, the ratio of winning one at the same time with special roles is set higher than the ratio of winning at the same time with special roles at the same time. When is stopped, you can expect to win a special role. For this reason, when the weak chance is stopped than when the watermelon is won, the player will be more advantageous in terms of the probability that the special role will be won at the same time, and the strong chance will be stronger than when the weak chance is stopped. When it is stopped, the player will have an advantage in the probability that the special role will be won at the same time.

  In the present embodiment, in the navigation stock lottery performed by the sub-control unit 91 when a watermelon, a single winning combination 1, and a single winning combination 2 are won, whether a watermelon has been won, a single winning combination 1 has been won, or a single winning combination 2 Depending on whether or not Navistock has been won, the average value of the winning probability of Navistock and the winning number of Navistock will differ.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 30, the winning probability of 0 Navistock at the time of winning a watermelon is 95%, the winning probability of 1 Navistock is 4%, and the winning probability of 3 Navistock is 1%. The winning probability of Navistock is 5%, and the average number of winning Navistock is 0.07. The winning probability of 0 Navistock at the time of winning 1 single player is 50%, the winning probability of 1 Navistock is 30%, the winning probability of 3 Navistock is 20%, and the winning probability of 5 Navistock is 10 %, The probability of winning Navistock is 50%, and the average number of winning Navistock is 1.4. The winning probability of 3 Navistocks at the time of winning 1 single-player 2 is 80%, the winning probability of 5 Navistocks is 20%, the winning probability of Navistock is 100%, and the average value of Navistock winning numbers is 3.4.

  In other words, the average value of Navistock's winning probability and the number of Navistock's winnings is set higher in the case of winning a single piece than in the case of winning a watermelon, and the weak chance stops compared to when a watermelon wins. Sometimes you can expect to win Navistock and the number of winners. In addition, the average value of Navistock's winning probability and the number of Navistock's winnings is set higher in the case of winning 1 and winning 2 than in the case of winning 1 When the strong chance stops, you can expect to win Navistock and the number of winners. For this reason, when a weak chance is stopped than when a watermelon is won, the player is more advantageous in terms of the winning probability and number of winning Navistock, and a stronger chance than when a weak chance is stopped. When the game stops, the player is more advantageous in terms of the winning probability and the winning number of the Navistock.

  In the present embodiment, when the watermelon, the 1st hand 1 and the 1st hand 2 are won during the ART in the extra lottery performed by the sub-control unit 91, whether the watermelon has been won or the 1st hand 1 has been won. Depending on whether the combination 2 has been won, the winning probability of adding the number of ART games and the average value of the number of games to be added are different.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 31, the winning probability of the additional game number 0G at the time of winning the watermelon is 50%, the winning probability of the additional game number 10G is 40%, the winning probability of the additional game number 30G is 5%, and the additional game The winning probability for several 50G is 1%, the winning probability for 100G added games is 1%, the winning probability for 150G added games is 1%, the winning probability for 200G added games is 1%, and the winning probability for 250G added games is The winning probability of 0.5%, the number of added games 300G is 0.5%, the winning probability of adding the number of ART games is 50%, and the average value of the number of added games is 13.25. The winning probability of 0G added game at the time of winning 1 single-player 1 is 30%, the winning probability of 10G added game is 30%, the winning probability of 30G added game is 25%, and the winning probability of 50G added game is 10% %, The winning probability of the additional game number 100G is 1%, the winning probability of the additional game number 150G is 1%, the winning probability of the additional game number 200G is 1%, the winning probability of the additional game number 250G is 1%, and the additional game number 300G The winning probability of the game is 1%, the winning probability of adding the number of ART games is 70%, and the average value of the added games is 25.5. The winning probability of 50G of additional games at the time of winning 1 single-player 2 is 50%, the winning probability of 100G of additional games is 20%, the winning probability of 150G of additional games is 10%, and the winning probability of 200G of additional games is 10% %, The winning probability of 250G added games is 5%, the winning probability of 300G added games is 5%, the winning probability of adding ART games is 100%, and the average number of games added is 107 .5.

  In other words, the winning probability of adding the number of ART games and the average value of the number of games to be added are higher in the case of winning a single role than in the case of winning a watermelon, and a weaker chance than when a watermelon wins. When the eyes are stopped, it is possible to expect a winning probability for adding the number of ART games and an additional number of games. In addition, the winning probability for adding the number of ART games and the average value of the number of games to be added are set higher in the case of winning one and winning two and the number of games added is higher than when winning one. When the strong chance stops, it is possible to expect an increase in the number of ART games to be won and an increase in the number of games. For this reason, when the weak chance is stopped rather than when the watermelon is won, the winning probability of adding the number of ART games and the number of games to be added are advantageous to the player, and the weak chance stops When the strong chance stops, it is advantageous for the player regarding the winning probability of adding the number of ART games and the number of games to be added.

  In the present embodiment, when winning a one-player combination 1, there are cases where a right advantageous to the player, such as a special combination, Navistock, an ART game number, etc., is granted or not. Yes, when the left reel is operated in the recommended stop mode, that is, in the order of stopping in the middle left and right, and at the recommended stop timing at which the single player 1 cannot win, "Watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the left reel, which is the first stop, and "Watermelon" can be stopped at the middle stage or upper stage of the middle reel, which is the second stop, and "Watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the left reel When the “watermelon” is stopped at the middle or upper stage of the middle reel and the right reel is stopped while the right reel is rotating, the stop position of the right reel is determined by the player. Rights that are advantageous to In a situation where there is no possibility, it becomes a special stop position that does not stop (stop position where the “watermelon” stops in the middle of the right reel). This is a weak chance to suggest.

  On the other hand, at the time of winning single-player role 2, it is confirmed that a right advantageous to the player is granted, and the recommended stop mode, that is, left-middle-right stop order and winning single-player role 1 When the left reel is stopped at the recommended stop timing at which the winning combination 2 cannot be won, the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel that becomes the first stop, and the middle stage or the middle reel that becomes the second stop It is possible to stop the "watermelon" at the upper stage, the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the left reel, the "watermelon" stops at the middle or upper stage of the middle reel, and the right reel is rotating. When the right reel, which is the final stop, is operated, the right reel stops at a special stop position that does not stop if the single-player combination 2 is not won (the “watermelon” Right if ”is stopped The stop position where the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the reel, and the stop position where the "watermelon" stops at the lower stage of the right reel if the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the middle reel) The stop mode is a strong chance that it is determined that the right advantageous to the player is granted.

  In this way, even if the single winning combination 1 or the single winning combination 2 is won in the order of the recommended stop order of left, middle and right, the selected single winning combination 1 or single winning combination 2 can be won. When the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop mode in which the left reel is stopped at the recommended stop timing that cannot be performed, the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the left reel, and the "watermelon" stops at the middle or upper stage of the middle reel This suggests that there is a possibility of winning one single role 1 that can be given a right advantageous to the player, and one single role 2 that is determined to be given a right advantageous for the player, When the special stop position stops on the right reel that will be the final stop, it will be a weak chance, suggesting that the single player 1 that can be given the right to the player is elected, while the final stop Special stop position on the right reel Will be a strong opportunity, and it will be suggested that the single-player 2 that is determined to be granted a right that is advantageous to the player is elected, so "watermelon" stops on the upper stage of the left reel However, when the “watermelon” stops at the middle or upper stage of the middle reel, the player's expectation that the right reel, which will be the final stop, will be in the special stop position, and that it will be in the special stop position. Can be sustained.

  In this embodiment, there are three reels, a left reel, a middle reel, and a right reel, and when a 1-player 1 and 1-player 2 are selected, the “watermelon” stops at the upper stage of the left reel. However, if the “watermelon” stops at the middle or upper stage of the middle reel and the right reel is still rotating, and the right reel is stopped, a special stop will be given to the right reel when winning 1 In the configuration in which the position can be stopped and the special reel position is controlled to be stopped on the right reel when the one-piece combination 2 is won, the one-piece combination 1 is provided in a configuration including at least two reels. (Specific result) In the situation where a predetermined stop position is stopped on a predetermined reel and the specific reel that is the final stop is still rotating at the time of winning of the one-piece combination 2 (special result), the specific reel that will be the final stop In addition, 1 player 1 (specific result) When winning, a control that can stop the special stop position is performed, and when a single-player 2 (special result) is won, a control that can stop the special stop position is performed. As a result, one winning combination 1 (special result) that can be given a right advantageous to the player is won, and one winning combination 2 (special result) that determines that a right advantageous to the player is granted is won. As the possibility is suggested, and then the special stop position stops at the specific reel that will be the final stop, the single player 1 (specific result) that can be given the right advantageous to the player is won On the other hand, a single-player role 2 (special result) that confirms that a special advantageous position for the player is granted by stopping the special stop position on the specific reel that will be the final stop will be won Suggested that Therefore, when a predetermined stop position is stopped on a predetermined reel, the player's expectation that it will become a special stop position and further a special stop position is maintained until the specific reel that will be the final stop stops. Can be made.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order, that is, in the stop order of the middle left and right, a predetermined combination is obtained at the time of winning one single combination 1 (specific result) and one single combination 2 (special result). In a situation where the predetermined stop position is stopped on the reel and the specific reel that is the final stop is still rotating, the special stop position is stopped when the single reel 1 (specific result) is won for the specific reel that is the final stop It is configured to perform control capable of stopping the special stop position at the time of winning the one-piece combination 2 (special result), but regardless of the stop order, the one-piece combination 1 (specific result), one-piece combination At the time of winning 2 (special result), when a predetermined stop position is stopped on a reel other than the final stop, and the reel that is the final stop is still rotating, one reel 1 (specific result) At the time of winning, control that can stop the special stop position, When winning a combination 2 (special result), it may be configured to perform control capable of stopping the special stop position. Even in such a configuration, the predetermined stop position is stopped on the reel other than the final stop. There is a possibility that a single player 1 (specific result) that can be given a right advantageous to the player and a single player 2 (special result) that is determined to be given a right advantageous for the player may be won. After that, the special stop position stops on the final stop reel, and it is suggested that the one-player combination 1 (specific result) that can be given an advantageous right for the player is won. On the other hand, since the special stop position stops on the reel that will be the final stop, it is suggested that the single-player combination 2 (special result) that confirms that the right advantageous to the player is granted is won. , Except for the final stop When a predetermined stop position stops Le, until reel the final stop is stopped, that the special stop position, further it is possible to maintain the player's expectation for it to be a special stop position.

  Further, in this embodiment, when a single winning combination 1 (specific result) and a single winning combination 2 (special result) are elected, a predetermined single reel 1 (specific result), single winning combination 2 in a predetermined reel (left reel). The predetermined stop position is stopped only when the stop operation is performed at some timings among the timings at which the (special result) configuration symbol cannot be drawn, and when the stop operation is performed at other timings, the predetermined stop positions are stopped. However, when one winning combination 1 (specific result) and 1 winning combination 2 (special result) are selected, the single reel 1 (specific result) When a stop operation is performed at a timing at which the configuration symbol 2 (special result) cannot be drawn, a configuration in which the predetermined stop position is always stopped may be employed.

  Further, in this embodiment, when a single winning combination 1 (specific result) and a single winning combination 2 (special result) are elected, a predetermined single reel 1 (specific result), single winning combination 2 in a predetermined reel (left reel). When a stop operation is performed at a timing at which the (special result) configuration symbol cannot be pulled in, the predetermined stop position is stopped at a predetermined reel, and the one-piece combination 1 (specific result) is applied to the specific reel that is the final stop. If it is elected, the special stop position is controlled so that it can be stopped. If the one-piece combination 2 (special result) is selected, the special stop position is controlled so that it can be stopped. ) When winning a single winning combination 2 (special result), at the specific reel that will be the final stop, stop at the timing that can not draw the symbols of 1 single winning combination 1 (specific result), 1 double winning combination (special result) When the operation is performed, the single reel 1 (specific result) There if the winning stop control to allow special stop position, one combination 2 (special result) may be configured to stop control to allow special stop position if elected.

  In addition, at the time of winning of the 1-sheet combination 1 (specific result) and 1-sheet combination 2 (special result), both the predetermined reel (left reel) and the specific reel that will be the final stop, 1-sheet combination 1 (specific result), When a stop operation is performed at a timing at which the constituent symbol of one-piece combination 2 (special result) cannot be drawn, the predetermined stop position stops on a predetermined reel, and one-piece combination 1 ( If the specific result) is elected, the special stop position may be controlled so as to be stopped, and if the single winning combination 2 (special result) is elected, the special stop position may be controlled to be able to be stopped.

  In addition, when there are a plurality of predetermined reels, any two or more predetermined reels are stopped at a timing at which the constituent symbols of one-piece combination 1 (specific result) and one-piece combination 2 (special result) cannot be drawn. When an operation is performed, if the predetermined stop position stops on a predetermined reel, and the single reel 1 (specific result) is elected on the specific reel that will be the final stop, the special stop position is controlled to be stopped. If a single winning combination 2 (special result) is won, the special stop position may be controlled to be stopped.

  In addition, in the reels other than the predetermined reel and the specific reel that is the final stop, that is, the reel in which the predetermined stop position does not stop, the configuration symbols of one-piece combination 1 (specific result) and one-piece combination 2 (special result) are drawn. If a stop operation is performed at a non-timing time, the specified stop position stops at the specified reel, and the special stop position is stopped if the single-player 1 (specific result) is won for the specific reel that will be the final stop. It is good also as a structure which controls so that a special stop position can be stopped if it can control and the 1 sheet combination 2 (special result) is elected.

  Further, in this embodiment, when a single-player combination 1 (specific result) and a single-player combination 2 (special result) are won, a stop operation is performed at a timing other than the timing at which a predetermined stop position can be pulled in for a predetermined reel. In addition, the control is performed so that the predetermined stop position is not stopped. However, at the time of winning the one-piece combination 1 (specific result) and the one-piece combination 2 (special result), the predetermined reel must be controlled regardless of the timing of the stop operation. It is good also as a structure which performs control which stops a predetermined stop position.

  Further, in this embodiment, at the time of winning one-piece combination 1 (specific result) and one-piece combination 2 (special result), the predetermined stop position is stopped on the predetermined reel, and the specific reel that is the final stop is still rotating. In this situation, even if the single reel 1 (specific result) is won for the specific reel that will be the final stop, if the stop operation is performed at a timing other than the timing at which the special stop position can be pulled in, the special stop When the stop operation is performed at a timing other than the timing at which the special stop position can be pulled in even if the single reel 2 (special result) is won for the specific reel that will be the final stop, with the control not stopping the position Is a configuration that performs control without stopping the special stop position, but when the one-piece combination 1 (specific result) and one-piece combination 2 (special result) are won, the predetermined stop position stops on the predetermined reel, and the final stop Specific reels still spinning In this situation, if the single reel 1 (specific result) is won for the specific reel that will be the final stop, the special stop position will always be controlled regardless of the timing of the stop operation. If a single reel 2 (special result) is won for a specific reel to be stopped, the special stop position may be controlled to be stopped regardless of the timing of the stop operation. In addition, if you have won a single-player role 2 (special result), a special stop will always occur if you perform a stop operation at a timing other than the timing at which the special stop position can be pulled into the specific reel that will be the final stop. It is good also as a structure which performs control which stops a position.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the winning combination 1 (special result) is won, the specific stop position is stopped on the predetermined reel, and the specific reel that is the final stop is still rotating, and the specific stop position is specified. In this configuration, not only the special stop position but also the special stop position is controlled so as to be able to stop on the reel of the first reel. In a situation where the specific reel is still rotating, the specific reel that is finally stopped may be controlled so that only the special stop position can be stopped among the special stop position and the special stop position.

  Also, in this embodiment, one-piece combination 1 can be won with a special combination at the same time, whereas one-piece combination 2 is always selected with a special combination at the same time, and Navistock can win at the time of one-piece combination 1 selection. On the other hand, the winning of Navistock is confirmed at the time of winning the one-player role, and the number of ART games can be added at the time of winning the one-player role, while the additional number of ART games when winning the one-player role. Is determined, and when a predetermined stop position is stopped on a predetermined reel, there is a possibility of winning a special role, winning Navistock, or adding an ART game number 1 (specific result) ), Winning a special role, winning Navistock, suggesting the possibility of winning a one-player role 2 (special result) where the additional number of ART games is confirmed, and then a specific stop that will be the final stop When the special stop position stops on the reel, It is suggested that the winning combination, Navistock, and the number of ART games will be added, and it is suggested that one winning combination 1 (specific result) has been won, but a special stop at the specific reel that will be the final stop As the position stops, it is suggested that the winning combination of the special role, the winning of Navistock, and the one-sided role 2 (special result) that confirms the addition of the number of ART games are won. When the specified stop position is stopped, there is a possibility that a special role will be elected, Navistock will be elected, the number of ART games will be added, and the special role will be elected until the specific reel that will be the final stop is stopped. , The player's expectation that the winning of Navistock and the addition of the number of ART games will be confirmed can be maintained.

  In this embodiment, one-piece combination 1 can be won simultaneously with a special combination, whereas one-piece combination 2 can always be won simultaneously with a special combination, and Navistock can win when one-piece combination 1 is won. On the other hand, the winning of Navistock is confirmed at the time of winning the one-player role, and the number of ART games can be added at the time of winning the one-player role, while the additional number of ART games when winning the one-player role. However, there are cases where a right that is advantageous to the player is granted at the time of at least one winning combination, and there are cases where the right that is advantageous to the player is not granted. As long as it is a configuration that includes at least one of the special role winning, Navistock winning, and ART game additions as an advantageous right for the player. , These special roles Winning, Navi stock winning, it may be applied to favorable right for the player other than the plus of the game the number of ART.

  Here, the right advantageous to the player means a right that allows the player to enter an advantageous gaming state advantageous to the player (winning a lottery for determining whether or not to generate an advantageous gaming state, And the right to be notified of an operation mode for deriving a display result to be shifted to an advantageous gaming state for the player.

  In addition, the advantageous gaming state advantageous to the player means that the probability that a specific winning will be allowed to be higher than usual and an operation mode for deriving a display result advantageous to the player, etc. A gaming state or the like that can be expected to acquire more gaming value than usual due to notification of advantageous information or the like.

  Also, in this embodiment, when winning a single winning combination 1 and a winning combination 1 (including simultaneous winning with a special winning combination), a recommended operation mode, that is, a recommended stopping order of left, middle and right, and a recommended order. When the stop operation of the left reel is performed at the stop timing, the same stop control is performed as the stop control of the first stop reel, that is, the left reel, and the stop control of the second stop reel (middle reel). In particular, for the second stop reel, stop control is performed using the same stop control table. For this reason, since the partial stop control table is shared during the winning of the single winning combination 1 (specific result) and the single winning combination 2 (special result), it is possible to reduce the capacity of data related to the stop control.

  In the present embodiment, the stop control is performed using the stop control table, and the partial stop control table is shared when the winning combination of the single player 1 (specific result) and the single player 2 (special result) is won. However, when stop control is performed using the stop position table described above, a partial stop control table is shared when winning a 1-player 1 (specific result) and 1-player 2 (special result). By doing so, it is possible to reduce the data volume related to the stop control. Further, if the stop control is performed by searching and specifying a stop position where the stop operation can be performed at the timing when the stop operation is performed, and stopping the reel at the specified stop position, one single combination 1 (specific result), one single combination By sharing a program for searching / specifying a partial stop position, a priority for searching / specifying, etc. at the time of winning 2 (special result), it is possible to reduce the amount of data related to stop control.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop order, that is, in the stop order of the left middle right, not only when winning the one-piece combination 1, one-piece combination 2 but also when winning the watermelon, Until the stop, the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the left reel and the "watermelon" stops at the middle stage of the middle reel, or the "watermelon" stops at the upper stage of the left reel, and the "watermelon" When the watermelon is won, the stop position where the combination of the right-down watermelon or the upper watermelon is aligned with the winning line LN in the right reel that will be the final stop is controlled so that it can be stopped. The “watermelon” is stopped, and the “watermelon” is stopped at the middle or upper stage of the middle reel, so that it is possible to grant a right that is advantageous to the player, a right that is advantageous to the player. 1 sheet to be confirmed In addition to the possibility that won 2, it is possible to suggest the possibility of watermelon is elected.

  Further, in this embodiment, even when a watermelon is won, a part of the stop control table used for winning the one-piece combination 1 and the one-piece combination 2 is used, so that it is possible to further reduce the data volume related to the stop control. it can.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop mode set so as to be advantageous to the player, one single combination 1 (specific result) and one single combination 2 (special result) are missed. Since a predetermined stop position is controlled to be able to be stopped on a predetermined reel and a special stop position and a special stop position are controlled to be able to be stopped on a specific reel that will be the final stop, one single combination 1 (specific result), one single combination Even if a stop mode in which a winning combination is not won as a condition for stopping a weak chance or a strong chance at the time of winning 2 (special result), that is, a stop mode in which a winning combination is missed is applied, these weak chances and strong chances are applied. You can increase the chance that your eyes stop.

  In the present embodiment, when the stop operation is performed in the recommended stop mode, one single combination 1 (specific result) and one single combination 2 (special result) can be missed and a predetermined stop position can be stopped on a predetermined reel. The special stop position and the special stop position are controlled so as to be able to be stopped on the specific reel that will be the final stop. However, at least one combination 1 (specific result), one combination 2 (special result) When a stop operation is performed in a stop mode that misses the configuration symbol, the predetermined stop position is controlled to stop on a predetermined reel, and the special stop position and special stop position are controlled to stop on the specific reel that will be the final stop. It is also possible to adopt a configuration in which weak chances and strong chances can be stopped when a stop operation is performed in a stop mode other than the recommended stop mode. As a result, the recommended stop mode is a stop mode that is advantageous to the player, but the weak and strong chances do not stop, and the stop modes other than the recommended stop mode are relative to the recommended stop mode. Although it is disadvantageous, it is possible to stop weak chances and strong chances, and the player chooses whether to stop in the recommended stop mode or to stop in other than the recommended stop mode Whether to give priority to advantage over stopping weak chances or strong chances, or to give priority to stopping weak chances or strong chances over advantage. You can choose.
