That is, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is changed, the stopping order of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 is changed.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the rotating reel corresponding to the pressed stop button among the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 is stopped within 190 ms from the time when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed. The stop position of each rotating reel is determined in the range of 0 to 4 frames (predetermined pull-in range) required from when the stop button is pressed until the reels stop. Then, the reel control unit 130 displays the symbol corresponding to the winning combination in the internal lottery on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating reel corresponding to the pressed stop button among the stop buttons B1 to B3. When the position is within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames (the pull-in range corresponding to 0 ms to 190 ms) with respect to the display position on the active line, the lottery flag corresponds to the winning combination set in the winning state Control is performed to stop the rotating reel corresponding to the pressed stop button so that the symbol is displayed at the display position on the active line.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the red 7 symbol “red 7” and the white 7 symbol “white 7” with respect to the outer peripheral surfaces of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 constituting the reel unit 310. , The BAR symbol “BAR”, the replay symbol “RP”, the bell symbol A “BLA”, the bell symbol B “BLB”, the bell symbol C “BLC”, the watermelon symbol “WM”, the cherry symbol “CH”, and the dummy symbol “ DUM ”is arranged, and if the symbols constituting the winning pattern of the combination are arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less on the outer peripheral surface of the reel, they can be displayed on the effective line regardless of the press detection position. it can.

  Specifically, the reel control unit 130 obtains the stop control table stored in the stop control table storage unit 193 of the storage unit 190 and the process for obtaining the stop position of the rotating reel by logic calculation (logic calculation process). A process for determining the stop position of the rotating reel (table reference process) is performed with reference.

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

  In particular, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, the priority order is determined in the order of “replay> small role> bonus”, and the lottery flags relating to two or more types of roles are set to the internal winning state in the logic operation processing. In this case, according to the priority order associated with each combination, the stop position including the symbols constituting the winning combination form with the lower priority for the candidate of the stop position including the symbols constituting the winning pattern with the higher priority combination The priority is determined so that the priority is higher than the candidates of.

  In the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the priority for the stop position candidates when a plurality of types of small roles are won in the internal lottery is determined according to a predetermined payout for the small roles, and the small amount of the payout is large. The priority is obtained for the stop position candidates for five frames so that the priority becomes higher as the stop position can win the winning combination. However, when a small combination with the same payout is won in duplicate, the priorities of the stop position candidates that can win each small combination are treated as the same.

  And in this embodiment, when the batting order bell is won, the correct answer bell and the three types of incorrect answer bells are won, but since the payouts of the respective small roles are the same, The priority of the stop position candidates that are treated in the same priority order and that display the symbols that make up the winning form of the correct answer bell on the active line and the stops that display the symbols that make up the winning form of the incorrect answer bell on the active line The priority of the position candidate is the same priority.

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

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

  In the table reference process, when a plurality of stop position candidates with the highest priority are obtained as a result of the logic operation process, the stop control table storage means of the storage means 190 indicates which position is set as the stop position. This is determined with reference to the stop control table stored in 193.

  Here, in the stop control table, according to the setting state of the lottery flag, the actual position is detected from the press detection position that is the position of the reel at the time when the stop switch 240 is activated (when the stop button is pressed) and the actual press detection position. A correspondence relationship with the number of sliding frames indicating the amount of rotation to the stop position is set. In the stop control table, the correspondence relationship between the pressed detection position and the actual stop position may be set according to the setting state of the lottery flag.

  In the stop control table that is referred to when the batting order bell is won in the internal lottery, as shown in FIG. 7A, the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 that are the correct batting order is set for each batting order bell. Thus, a pressing order different from the correct answer order is treated as an incorrect answer order. In this embodiment, when any of the hitting bells is won, if the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct hitting order, as shown in FIG. 7B, the pressing detection is made so that the correct bell wins. The number of sliding frames for the position is set. Further, when any of the batting order bells is won and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the wrong answering order, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 7D or 7E, the number of sliding symbols for the pressed detection position is set so that there is a case where a combination of symbols indicating an RT variation blank is displayed without winning any of the roles. Yes. In particular, in the present embodiment, when no winning combination is won at the time of winning the batting order bell, the RT fluctuation blank 1 (specific symbol combination) is displayed on the active line displaying the symbols constituting the incorrect answer bell winning pattern. In this way, the reel is displayed so that the RT fluctuation blank 2 (specific symbol combination) is displayed on an effective line different from the effective line displaying the symbols constituting the incorrect bell winning form and the control for determining the reel stop position. The control for determining the stop position is switched under a predetermined condition. For example, the control for displaying the RT fluctuation blank 1 according to the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3, the pressing detection position when each reel is stopped, the stop position of the reel that has already stopped, and the RT fluctuation Control for displaying blank 2 is switched. In the present embodiment, the common bell to be won in the bonus state is treated as if the stop operation was performed in the correct hit order regardless of the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3, and the correct bell is won. It is like that. However, even in the bonus state, instead of the common bell, the batting order bell is selected as a lottery object, or both the common bell and the batting order bell are selected as a lottery object, so that a combination of points is lost depending on the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3. You may do it.

  Further, in the stop control table that is referred to when the batting order replay is won in the internal lottery, as shown in FIG. 8A, the correct batting order is set for each batting order replay, and the pressing order is different from the correct batting order. Are treated as incorrect order. In this embodiment, when any of the batting order replays is won, when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order, as shown in FIG. 8 (B), pressing detection is performed so that the promotion replay wins. The number of sliding frames for the position is set. In addition, when any of the hit order replays is won and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in an incorrect answer hit order, as shown in FIG. 8C, the slip relative to the press detection position so that the normal replay wins. The number of frames is set.

  The winning determination means 140 performs a process of determining whether or not a winning combination has been won based on the stop mode of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. Specifically, with reference to the winning determination table stored in the winning determination table storage means 194 of the storage means 190, it is displayed on the active line when all of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are stopped. It is determined whether or not the symbol combination is in the form of a predetermined winning combination. Then, depending on the symbol combination displayed on the active line in a state where each reel is stopped, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, a big bonus (BB), normal replay, promotion replay, control replay 1 to control replay 3, A winning determination table is prepared so that it is possible to determine whether the correct answer bell, the incorrect answer bell 1 to the incorrect answer bell 9, the watermelon winning, the RT fluctuation blank 1 and the RT fluctuation blank 2 are displayed. In particular, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 10, as the RT fluctuation blank, the bell symbols (bell symbol A “BLA”, bell symbol B “BLB”, bell symbol C “BLC”) constituting the incorrect answer bell winning pattern are used. ) Including RT variation blank 1 and RT variation blank 2 not including the bell symbol constituting the incorrect answer bell winning form.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the winning process is executed based on the determination result of the winning determination means 140. As a winning process, for example, when a small role is won, a payout control unit 150 performs a medal payout control process, and when a replay wins, a replay process unit 160 performs a replay process, and a bonus is awarded. When a prize is won, a gaming state transition control process is performed by the gaming state transition control means 170 to transition the gaming state.

  The payout control means 150 performs payout control processing relating to the payout of medals according to the game result. Specifically, when a small role wins, the number of medals to be paid out in the game is determined based on a payout according to a predetermined number of predetermined inputs for each role, and medals corresponding to the determined number of payouts Is controlled to be delivered to the hopper unit 320 (dispensing device).

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

  If credits (internal storage) of medals are permitted, instead of actually paying out medals by the hopper unit 320, the number of credits stored in a credit storage area (not shown) of the storage unit 190 (not shown) A credit addition process for adding the number of payouts to the number of credited medals is performed to virtually pay out medals.

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

  As shown in FIG. 11, the gaming state transition control means 170 performs a gaming state transition control process for transitioning the gaming state between the normal state, the first replay time state, the second replay time state, the bonus establishment state, and the bonus state. I do. As the game condition transition condition, one condition may be defined, or a plurality of conditions may be defined. In the case where a plurality of conditions are determined, the gaming state is determined based on the fact that one of the plurality of predetermined conditions is satisfied or all of the plurality of predetermined conditions are satisfied. It is possible to shift to another gaming state.

  The normal state is a game state corresponding to the initial state among a plurality of types of game states, and a transition from the normal state to the first replay time state and the bonus establishment state is possible. Specifically, when the symbol combination indicating the RT fluctuation blank is displayed in the normal state, the state shifts to the first replay time state, and when the big bonus (BB) is won in the normal state, the state shifts to the bonus establishment state. To do. In the normal state, among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table E shown in FIG. 3, the winning probability of replay is set to about 1 / 7.2, and the big bonus (BB) is set as the lottery target. An internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table A is performed.

  The first replay time state is a gaming state that transitions when a symbol combination indicating an RT fluctuation blank is displayed, and the transition from the first replay time state to the second replay time state and the bonus establishment state is possible. It has become. Specifically, when the promoted replay wins in the first replay time state, the state shifts to the second replay time state, and when the big bonus (BB) is won in the first replay time state, the state shifts to the bonus establishment state. To do. In the first replay time state, among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table E shown in FIG. 3, the replay winning probability is set to about 1 / 7.3, and the big bonus (BB) is set as the lottery target. The internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table B is performed.

  The second replay time state is a gaming state that shifts when the promoted replay wins, and the second replay time state can be shifted to the first replay time state and the bonus establishment state. Specifically, when the symbol combination indicating the RT fluctuation blank is displayed in the second replay time state, the state shifts to the first replay time state, and the big bonus (BB) is won in the second replay time state. Shifts to the bonus establishment state. In the second replay time state, among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table E shown in FIG. 3, the replay winning probability is set to about 1 / 1.3 and the big bonus (BB) is set as the lottery target. The internal lottery with reference to the internal lottery table C is performed.

  The bonus establishment state is a gaming state that shifts when the big bonus (BB) is won in the internal lottery. In the bonus establishment state, among the internal lottery table A to the internal lottery table E shown in FIG. 3, the replay winning probability is set to about 1 / 7.1, and the big bonus (BB) is excluded from the lottery target. An internal lottery with reference to the lottery table D is performed.

  In the bonus establishment state, the lottery flag corresponding to the big bonus (BB) is maintained in the winning state until the big bonus (BB) is won, and the symbol combination indicating the big bonus (BB) winning pattern is displayed on the active line. Then, the gaming state transition control means 170 shifts the gaming state from the bonus establishment state to the bonus state.

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

  Further, in the bonus state, it is determined whether or not the end condition is satisfied based on the total number of medals paid out by the bonus game, and when medals exceeding the predetermined end payout number (for example, 300) are paid out. The gaming state transition control means 170 ends the bonus state and returns the gaming state to the normal state.

  The effect control means 180 uses the display effect performed using the display device 330 (an example of the effect device) or the audio device 340 (an example of the effect device) based on the effect data stored in the effect data storage means 195. Control related to the sound production to be performed. For example, a lamp or LED is turned on or blinked according to the occurrence of a gaming event such as insertion of a medal, an operation on a bet button B0, a start lever SL, stop buttons B1 to B3, or a change in gaming state, By changing the content or outputting sound from the speaker, the game is excited or the execution control of the effect for assisting the game is performed.

  Particularly in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the effect control means 180 changes the effect state between a plurality of types of effect states including the AT preparation state and the AT state, and the effect state is changed to the assist time state ( The AT state is set, the AT state end condition is determined based on the stored value of the AT end determination counter 197, and the AT state is ended when the AT state end condition is satisfied.

  More specifically, the effect control means 180 performs AT lottery (predetermined effect lottery) when a watermelon or a big bonus (BB) is won in the internal lottery. In the AT lottery, any of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is acquired, and the acquired random number value is compared with the AT lottery table stored in the effect lottery table storage unit 196, and according to the comparison result. It is determined whether or not the AT lottery is won. In the AT lottery table, for example, each of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is associated with either winning or losing, and the random value acquired in the AT lottery is selected in the AT lottery table. If it is associated, it is determined that the AT lottery is won. Then, the effect control means 180 sets the effect state to the AT ready state based on winning the AT lottery, and changes the effect state to the AT state based on the fact that the replay lottery state has shifted to the RT2 state in the AT ready state. Set.

  Further, the effect control means 180 performs a process of adding a given addition value to the stored value of the AT end determination counter 197 based on the fact that the AT lottery is won. In particular, in the present embodiment, the added value is set to “30” as a value corresponding to, for example, 30 games. The added value is not limited to the above example, and can be arbitrarily set. In addition, when a watermelon or a big bonus (BB) is won in a game in the AT state, a given value is stored in the AT end determination counter 197. The added value may be added.

  Further, the production control means 180 decrement updates by subtracting a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of times of one game from the stored value of the AT end determination counter 197 every time a game in the AT state (assist time game) is performed. I do. In the present embodiment, the decrement update of the stored value of the AT end determination counter 197 is started from the next game (first game in the second replay time state) of the game in which the promotion replay wins. When the stored value of the AT end determination counter 197 reaches a threshold value (for example, 0), it is determined that the end condition for the AT state is satisfied, and control is performed to end the AT state. In this embodiment, when the big bonus (BB) is won in the AT state, it is determined that the update interruption condition of the AT end determination counter 197 is satisfied, and in this case, the effect state is shifted to the AT preparation state. And the decrement update regarding the stored value of the AT end determination counter 197 is interrupted, and the promotion state is returned to the AT state when the promotion replay wins after the bonus state ends and the gaming state shifts to the second replay time state. At the same time, the decrement update of the AT end determination counter 197 is restarted, and the game for the undigested portion is performed. In addition, when the return lottery is performed at the end of the AT state or when the RT fluctuation blank is displayed after the end of the AT state and the return lottery is won, the return to the AT state is made via the AT preparation state. May be.

  Further, when the production state is the AT preparation state or the AT state, the production control means 180 displays the first prize auxiliary production that informs the stop button pressing order and assists the winning of the correct bell when the batting order bell is won. Control to be executed by the device 330 and the acoustic device 340 is performed. However, when the performance state is the AT ready state and the game state is the normal state, the first prize assist effect is not executed even if the batting order bell is won to guide the game state to the first replay time state. It is like that. Various effects can be adopted as the first winning assistance effect. For example, an effect image for notifying the correct batting order according to the winning batting order bell is displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD, or according to the winning batting order bell. It is possible to turn on a lamp for notifying the correct hit order, or to output a sound for notifying the correct hit order according to the selected hit order bell from the speaker. In the present embodiment, when the stop button is pressed along the correct hit order notified in the first winning assistance effect, the correct bell always wins and nine medals can be obtained.

  In addition, when the production state is the AT preparation state and the batting order replay is won, the production control unit 180 notifies the display device 330 of the second winning auxiliary production that informs the pressing order of the stop button and assists the promotion replay. Control to be executed by the audio device 340 is performed. However, in the AT state, when the player has won the batting order bell and the player does not perform the stop operation according to the first prize assisting effect, the RT fluctuation blank is displayed and the gaming state falls to the first replay time state. In exceptional cases, even in the AT state, the second prize assisting effect is executed at the time of winning the batting order replay to guide the gaming state to the second replay time state. Various effects can be adopted as the second winning assistance effect. For example, an effect image for notifying the correct batting order according to the winning batting order replay is displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD, or according to the winning batting order replay. It is possible to turn on a lamp for notifying the correct hit order, or to output a sound for notifying the correct hit order according to the selected hit order replay from the speaker. In the present embodiment, when the stop button is pressed in the correct hit order notified in the second prize assisting effect, the promoted replay always wins and the gaming state can be shifted to the second replay time state. Yes.

  Further, the effect control means 180 is a penalty process that generates a penalty that is disadvantageous to the player when the second reel R2 or the third reel R3 stops first in a game in which the effect state is not the AT ready state or the AT state. I do. Penalty processing includes, for example, processing for prohibiting execution of AT lottery until a certain number of games are consumed, processing for discarding the results of AT lottery until the number of games is consumed, and winning an AT lottery. It is possible to perform a process of deferring the transition to the AT state until a certain number of games are consumed. That is, in the present embodiment, when the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is first pressed when not in the AT preparation state or the AT state, the opportunity to shift to the AT state is lost until a certain number of games are consumed, There is a penalty that the transition to the AT state is delayed. In addition, when the second reel R2 or the third reel R3 stops for the first time, the penalty process is not executed immediately, but the correct bell or promotion is accompanied by the first stop of the second reel R2 or the third reel R3. Penalty processing may be executed when a replay wins. In the present embodiment, by performing the penalty processing as described above, it is possible to restrict winning the correct bell without depending on the first winning assist effect, or to make a promotion replay winning regardless of the second winning assist effect. It is possible to prevent the dishonest player from enjoying the profit by intentionally pressing the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 first.

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

2. Method of this embodiment In this embodiment, when no winning combination is won in the game in which the batting order bell is won, the RT fluctuation blank 1 is applied to the active line displaying the symbols constituting the winning form of the incorrect answer bell. The reel stop position so that the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the effective line different from the effective line displaying the symbols constituting the incorrect bell winning pattern and the control for determining the reel stop position to be displayed. A method of switching the control for determining the condition under a predetermined condition is adopted. Hereinafter, a specific example will be described with reference to FIGS. 12 to 15, taking as an example a case where the stop operation is performed in an incorrect answering order when the hitting order bell A1 is won.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram for explaining an example of determining the stop position when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of B2, B1, and B3 when the batting order bell A1 is won.

  First, regarding the second reel R2 to be stopped first, one of the symbols (bell symbol A, bell symbol B, bell symbol C) constituting the winning form of the incorrect answer bell is 1 based on the incorrect answer hit order. The stop position is determined so as to be displayed in the lower stage, which is the display position constituting only the effective line. For example, as shown in FIG. 12A, the stop position is determined so that the bell symbol A “BLA” constituting the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 1 is displayed in the lower stage of the second reel R2, and FIG. According to the stop mode shown in A), there is a possibility that only the incorrect answer bell 1 among the plural types of small roles included in the batting order bell A1 on the active line L3 will be won.

  Next, for the first reel R1 that stops second, the bell symbol A “BLA” that constitutes the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 1 is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less. As shown, the stop position is determined so that the bell symbol A “BLA” is displayed at the lower stage, which is the display position of the effective line L3 where the incorrect answer bell 1 can be won regardless of the pressed detection position. And according to the stop mode shown in FIG. 12 (B), the possibility of winning the incorrect answer bell 1 still remains on the active line L3.

  Then, regarding the third reel R3 to be stopped lastly, when the bell symbol A “BLA” constituting the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 1 cannot be drawn in the effective line L3 where the incorrect answer bell 1 can be won, RT The stop position is determined so that the variation blank is displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 12, neither the RT fluctuation blanks 1 and 2 can be displayed on the effective line L3 on which the incorrect answer bell 1 can be won, and the RT fluctuation blank 2 can be displayed on the effective line L2. Therefore, when the incorrect answer bell 1 cannot be won, as shown in FIG. 12C, the stop position is determined so that the replay symbol “RP” is displayed in the middle of the third reel R3. The symbol combination “WM / RP / RP” indicating the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the effective line L2.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining an example of determining the stop position when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of B2, B3, and B1 when the batting order bell A1 is won.

  First, for the second reel R2 that stops first, the stop position is determined in the same manner as in the example shown in FIG. 12, and for example, as shown in FIG. The stop position is determined so that the bell symbol A “BLA” that constitutes the winning form is displayed, and according to the stop mode shown in FIG. 13A, a plurality of types included in the batting order bell A1 in the effective line L3. Only the incorrect answer bell 1 of the small roles remains a possibility of winning.

  Next, regarding the third reel R3 that stops second, the bell symbol A “BLA” that constitutes the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 1 cannot be drawn in the effective line L3 where the incorrect answer bell 1 can be won. The stop position is determined so that the RT fluctuation blank can be displayed. In the stop mode shown in FIG. 13A, the RT fluctuation blank 1 can be displayed on the effective line L3 on which the incorrect answer bell 1 can be won, and the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the effective lines L1 and L2. Can be displayed.

  Here, in the present embodiment, when the stop operation is performed in the incorrect answering order when the hitting order bell is won, even if it is impossible to win the incorrect answer bell included in the hitting order bell, In the reel that stops at the same time, any bell symbol (bell symbol A “BLA”, bell symbol B “BLB”, bell symbol C “BLC”) within the pull-in range with respect to the pressed detection position is displayed on the effective line. Determine the stop position. In this way, the RT fluctuation blank can be displayed on the active line, and until all reels are stopped, it appears as if any of the incorrect answer bell 1 to the incorrect answer bell 9 can be won. Eyes can be formed.

  For example, regarding the third reel R3 that stops second, even when the bell symbol A “BLA” that constitutes the winning form of the correct bell 1 cannot be drawn, for example, as shown in FIG. In the first reel R1 that determines the stop position so that the bell symbol C “BLC” is displayed in the lower row and stops last, for example, as shown in FIG. 13C, the watermelon symbol “WM” is displayed in the lower row. Can be displayed, and the symbol combination “WM / BLA / BLC” indicating the RT fluctuation blank 1 can be displayed on the effective line L3.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram for explaining an example of determining the stop position when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of B3 → B1 → B2 when the batting order bell A1 is won.

  First, regarding the third reel R3 to be stopped first, one of the symbols (bell symbol A, bell symbol B, bell symbol C) constituting the winning form of the incorrect answer bell is 1 based on the incorrect answer hit order. The stop position is determined so as to display in the middle stage, which is the display position constituting only the effective line. For example, as shown in FIG. 14A, the stop position is determined so that the bell symbol C “BLC” constituting the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 9 is displayed in the middle stage of the third reel R3. According to the stop mode shown in A), there is a possibility that only the incorrect answer bell 9 among the plural types of small combinations included in the batting order bell A1 on the active line L2 will be won.

  Next, regarding the first reel R1 that stops second, the bell symbol A “BLA” that constitutes the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 9 is arranged at intervals of 4 frames or less. As shown, the stop position is determined so that the bell symbol A “BLA” is displayed in the middle stage, which is the display position of the active line L2 where the incorrect answer bell 9 can be won regardless of the pressed detection position. And according to the stop mode shown in FIG. 14 (B), the possibility of winning the incorrect answer bell 9 still remains on the active line L2.

  Then, regarding the second reel R2 that stops at the end, if the bell symbol C “BLC” that constitutes the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 9 cannot be drawn in the effective line L2 where the incorrect answer bell 9 can be won, RT The stop position is determined so that the variation blank is displayed. In the example shown in FIG. 14, neither the RT fluctuation blanks 1 and 2 can be displayed on the effective line L2 on which the incorrect answer bell 9 can be won, and the RT fluctuation blank 2 can be displayed on the effective line L1. Therefore, when the incorrect answer bell 9 cannot be won, as shown in FIG. 14C, the stop position is determined so that the replay symbol “RP” is displayed in the middle of the second reel R2. The symbol combination “WM / RP / RP” indicating the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the effective line L1.

  FIG. 15 is a diagram for explaining an example of determining the stop position when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of B3 → B2 → B1 when the batting order bell A1 is won.

  First, for the third reel R3 that stops first, the stop position is determined in the same manner as in the example shown in FIG. 14, and for example, as shown in FIG. The stop position is determined so that the bell symbol C “BLC” that constitutes the winning form is displayed, and according to the stop mode shown in FIG. 15A, a plurality of types included in the batting order bell A1 in the active line L2 Only the incorrect answer bell 9 among the small roles remains a possibility of winning.

  Next, regarding the second reel R2 that stops second, the bell symbol C “BLC” that constitutes the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 9 cannot be drawn in the effective line L2 where the incorrect answer bell 9 can be won. The stop position is determined so that the RT fluctuation blank can be displayed. In the stop mode shown in FIG. 15A, the RT fluctuation blank 1 can be displayed on the effective line L2 where the incorrect answer bell 9 can be won, and the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the effective lines L1 and L3. Can be displayed.

  Here, in the present embodiment, similarly to the example shown in FIG. 13, when the stop operation is performed in the incorrect answer hit order at the time of winning the hit order bell, it becomes impossible to win the incorrect answer bell included in the hit order bell. Even in the case of the second reel, the stop position is determined so that an arbitrary bell symbol within the pull-in range with respect to the pressed detection position is displayed on the effective line, and the RT changes on the effective line. Until all the reels are stopped while making blank display possible, an outcome is formed as if any of the incorrect answer bell 1 to the incorrect answer bell 9 can be won.

  For example, regarding the second reel R2 that stops second, even if the bell symbol C “BLC” that constitutes the winning form of the correct bell 9 cannot be drawn, for example, as shown in FIG. In the first reel R1, which determines the stop position so that the bell symbol A “BLA” is displayed in the middle row, and finally stops, for example, as shown in FIG. 15C, the watermelon symbol “WM” is displayed in the middle row. And the symbol combination “WM / BLA / BLC” indicating the RT fluctuation blank 1 can be displayed on the effective line L2.

  In the present embodiment, the common bell symbol A “BLA” is assigned to the first reel R1 in the correct bell winning form and the incorrect bell winning form, and when the hitting bell is won, In the case where no winning combination is won due to the stop operation performed in step 1, the first reel R1 is displayed when the bell symbol A “BLA” is displayed at the display position on the active line with respect to the first reel R1. , The stop position of the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 is determined so that the RT fluctuation blank is displayed on an effective line different from the effective line on which the bell symbol A “BLA” is displayed. Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 16, a specific example will be described in which a stop operation is performed in an incorrect answer hit order when winning the hit order bell B1.

  FIG. 16 is a diagram for explaining an example of determining the stop position when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of B1, B2, and B3 when the batting order bell B1 is won.

  First, for the first reel R1 that stops first, a common symbol is assigned to the correct answer bell and the incorrect answer bell. Therefore, the correct answer bell and the incorrect answer order are incorrect in both the correct answer order and the incorrect answer order. The stop position is determined so that the bell symbol A “BLA”, which is commonly assigned to the winning form of the correct answer bell, is displayed at the display position constituting only one effective line. For example, as shown in FIG. 16A, the stop position is determined so that the bell symbol A “BLA” is displayed on the upper stage of the first reel R1, and according to the stop mode shown in FIG. The possibility of winning for all of the plural types of small roles included in the batting order bell B1 (correct answer bell, incorrect answer bell 1, incorrect answer bell 2, and incorrect answer bell 3) remains on the effective line L1.

  Next, with respect to the second reel R2 that stops second, the bell symbol A “BLA” constituting each winning form of the incorrect answer bell 1 to the incorrect answer bell 3 is given priority based on the incorrect answer hit order. However, even if the bell symbol A “BLA” cannot be pulled in, it seems that the wrong answer bell can be won by pulling in any bell symbol. The stop position is determined so as to form an output where the RT fluctuation blank can be displayed. For example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B), the bell symbol C “BLC” is displayed in the middle stage which is the display position on the effective line L1. Thus, the stop position is determined. Then, according to the stop mode shown in FIG. 16 (B), none of the small roles included in the batting order bell B1 can be won in any effective line, but the RT fluctuation blank 1 is displayed in the effective line L2. It is possible.

  As for the third reel R3 that stops last, it is determined that no winning combination will be won depending on the stopping mode of the first reel R1 and the second reel R2, so that the RT fluctuation blank is displayed. A stop position is determined. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 16C, the stop position is determined so that a bell symbol (for example, bell symbol C “BLC”) is displayed on the middle stage of the third reel R3, and RT is set to the effective line L2. The symbol combination “RP / BLC / BLC” indicating the variation blank 1 is displayed.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the RT fluctuation blank 1 that can be displayed on the effective line displaying the bell symbol constituting the incorrect answer bell winning form as the RT fluctuation blank, and the incorrect answer bell winning RT variation blank 2 that can be displayed on an effective line different from the effective line displaying the symbols that make up the form is set, and if no role is won at the time of winning the batting order bell, RT variation blank The reel stop position is determined so that 1 or RT fluctuation blank 2 is selectively displayed on the effective line. For this reason, according to the present embodiment, the effective line for displaying the R variation blank is not limited, so that it is possible to freely determine the stop position for displaying the RT variation blank in the event that a winning combination is missed when winning the batting order bell. The degree can be improved.

  In particular, in the past, when a winning combination in which the correct answering role and the incorrect answering role are selected in a winning manner occurs, an RT fluctuation blank is displayed on the active line that displays the symbols constituting the winning form of the incorrect answering role. Therefore, in the case where the bell symbol is drawn up to the second reel to be stopped as in the present embodiment, the RT variation blank can be displayed in all incorrect answering orders. As shown in FIG. 17, there are at least three types of management data of RT variation blank symbol combinations (RT variation blank 1 “(WM / Red 7 / White 7 / RP). (BLA / BLB / BLC). (BLA / BLB / BLC) ”, RT fluctuation blank 2“ (BLA) · (RP) · (BLA / BLB / BLC) ”, RT fluctuation blank 3“ (BLA) · (BLA / BLB / BLC) · RP) "), it was necessary to be prepared.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, since the RT fluctuation blank can be displayed even on the effective line that does not draw the symbol constituting the winning form of the incorrect answer bell, the RT fluctuation blank pattern as shown in FIG. Two types of combination management data (RT variation blank 1 “(WM / Red 7 / White 7 / RP) • (BLA / BLB / BLC) • (BLA / BLB / BLC)” ”, RT variation blank 2“ (WM / (White 7 / DUM) / (RP / White 7 / BAR) / (RP) ”), and the RT line always changes to the effective line that draws the symbols that make up the winning form of the incorrect answering role as before. Compared to the case of displaying a blank, the management data of the symbol combination of the RT fluctuation blank can be reduced, and the management data regarding the symbol combination can be compressed more than before.

  Further, in the present embodiment, there are a display position that forms a plurality of effective lines and a display position that forms only one effective line for the display positions of the symbols relating to the second reel R2 and the third reel R3, and the batting order bell. In the case of incorrect answering order at the time of winning, when the second reel R2 or the third reel R3 among the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 stops for the first time, an incorrect answer bell winning form is formed. The reel stop position is determined so that the bell symbol is displayed at the display position constituting only one effective line.

  Therefore, according to the present embodiment, when a stop operation is performed in the incorrect answering order when the hitting bell is won, the effective line that can win the incorrect answer bell can be limited to one line, and the winning The drawing range of the symbols constituting the RT variation blank can be secured widely without unnecessarily widening the drawing range of the symbols constituting the winning form of the incorrect answer bell included in the batting order bell. In other words, in the present embodiment, an output that makes it easy to display the RT fluctuation blank on the active line while minimizing the drawing range of the symbols constituting the incorrect answer bell winning form for the reels that stop after the second is formed. can do.

  Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, a common bell symbol A “BLA” is assigned to the first reel R1 in the correct bell winning form and the incorrect bell winning form. If no winning combination is won at the time of winning, the bell symbol A “BLA” is displayed when the bell symbol A “BLA” is displayed at the display position on the active line for the first reel R1. The stop positions of the second reel R2 and the third reel R3 are determined so that the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on an effective line different from the effective line.

  For this reason, according to this embodiment, when a stop operation is performed in the incorrect answering order when winning the hitting bell, the RT fluctuation blank is displayed on the active line while leaving at least the possibility of winning the incorrect answer bell. Possible outcomes can be formed.

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

  In the above embodiment, the reels that are already stopped (the reels that have been stopped first) are drawn when the bell symbol is drawn on the effective line up to the reel that stops second when the hitting bell is won, and the last reel is stopped. According to the stop mode of the reel that has been stopped second), the reel is stopped so that the RT fluctuation blank is displayed on the active line on which the symbols constituting the incorrect answer bell winning form are displayed, Although the explanation has been given by taking as an example the case of switching the control to stop the reel so that the RT fluctuation blank is displayed on the active line different from the active line on which the symbols constituting the winning form of the incorrect answer bell are displayed, Control to stop the reel so that the RT fluctuation blank is displayed on the active line on which the symbols constituting the incorrect answer bell winning pattern are displayed according to the pressed detection position It may be switched to the control for stopping the reels to be displayed effective lines RT fluctuations blank which is different from the effective line symbol constructing the winning form of incorrect bell is displayed.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram for explaining an example of determining the stop position when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of B2 → B3 → B1 when the batting order bell A1 is won.

  First, for the second reel R2 that stops first, the stop position is determined in the same manner as in the example shown in FIG. 12, and for example, as shown in FIG. The stop position is determined so that the bell symbol A “BLA” that constitutes the winning form is displayed, and according to the stop mode shown in FIG. 18A, a plurality of types included in the batting order bell A1 on the effective line L3. Only the incorrect answer bell 1 of the small roles remains a possibility of winning.

  Next, regarding the third reel R3 that stops second, the bell symbol A “BLA” that constitutes the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 1 cannot be drawn in the effective line L3 where the incorrect answer bell 1 can be won. The stop position is determined so that the RT fluctuation blank can be displayed. In the stop mode shown in FIG. 18 (A), it is possible to display the RT fluctuation blank 1 on the effective line L3 where the incorrect answer bell 1 can be won, and the RT fluctuation blank 2 on the effective lines L1 and L2. In this embodiment, when both RT fluctuation blanks 1 and 2 can be displayed, the number of frames to be drawn from the pressing detection position (the reels from the pressing detection position to the stop position). The stop position is determined so that the rotation amount is small. If it does in this way, in control for displaying RT variation blank, the load to the member which drives a reel can be reduced, suppressing power consumption.

  For example, regarding the third reel R3 that stops second, when the number of frames to be drawn from the pressing detection position is smaller at the stop position where the symbols constituting the RT fluctuation blank 1 are displayed, FIG. 18B shows. As shown in FIG. 18C, for example, in the first reel R1, the stop position is determined so that the bell symbol C “BLC” is displayed in the lower row, and the watermelon symbol “ The stop position is determined so as to display “WM”, and the symbol combination “WM / BLA / BLC” indicating the RT fluctuation blank 1 is displayed on the effective line L3.

  Also, for example, with respect to the third reel R3 that stops second, if the number of frames to be drawn from the pressing detection position is smaller at the stop position where the symbols constituting the RT fluctuation blank 2 are displayed, FIG. As shown in FIG. 18 (E), the stop position is determined so that the replay symbol “RP” is displayed in the middle row, and the watermelon symbol “RP” is displayed in the middle row. The stop position is determined so that “WM” is displayed, and the symbol combination “WM / RP / RP” indicating the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the effective line L2.

  FIG. 19 is a diagram illustrating an example of determining the stop position when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order of B3 → B2 → B1 when the batting order bell A1 is won.

  First, for the third reel R3 that stops first, the stop position is determined in the same manner as in the example shown in FIG. 19, and for example, as shown in FIG. 19A, the incorrect answer bell 9 is placed in the middle of the third reel R3. The stop position is determined so that the bell symbol C “BLC” that constitutes the winning form is displayed, and according to the stop mode shown in FIG. 19A, a plurality of types included in the batting order bell A1 in the active line L2 Only the incorrect answer bell 9 among the small roles remains a possibility of winning.

  Next, regarding the second reel R2 that stops second, the bell symbol C “BLC” that constitutes the winning form of the incorrect answer bell 9 cannot be drawn in the effective line L2 where the incorrect answer bell 9 can be won. The stop position is determined so that the RT fluctuation blank can be displayed. In the stop mode shown in FIG. 19A, it is possible to display the RT fluctuation blank 1 on the effective line L2 where the incorrect answer bell 9 can be won, and the RT fluctuation blank 2 on the effective lines L1 and L3. In this embodiment, when both the RT fluctuation blanks 1 and 2 can be displayed, the stop position is determined so that the number of frames drawn from the pressing detection position is reduced.

  For example, regarding the second reel R2 that stops second, when the number of frames to be drawn from the pressed detection position is smaller at the stop position where the symbols constituting the RT fluctuation blank 1 are displayed, FIG. 19 (B) shows. As shown in FIG. 19C, for example, in the first reel R1, the stop position is determined so that the bell symbol A “BLA” is displayed in the middle row, and the watermelon symbol “ The stop position is determined so that “WM” is displayed, and the symbol combination “WM / BLA / BLC” indicating the RT fluctuation blank 1 is displayed on the effective line L2.

  Further, for example, in the case of the second reel R2 that stops second, when the number of frames to be drawn from the pressing detection position is smaller at the stop position where the symbols constituting the RT fluctuation blank 2 are displayed, FIG. As shown in FIG. 19E, the stop position is determined so that the replay symbol “RP” is displayed in the middle stage, and the water reel design “ The stop position is determined so that “WM” is displayed, and the symbol combination “WM / RP / RP” indicating the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the effective line L1.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 18 and 19, when both of the RT fluctuation blanks 1 and 2 can be displayed, the stop position is determined so that the number of frames drawn from the pressed detection position is reduced. The pressing detection position where the stop position is determined so as to display the fluctuation blank 1 and the pressing detection position where the stop position is determined so as to display the RT fluctuation blank 2 may be determined in advance. The stop position may be determined so that the number of frames to be drawn increases, or the stop position is determined so that the number of frames to be drawn decreases, and the number of frames to be drawn from the press detection position increases. The case where the stop position is determined may be determined in advance for each press detection position, and the case where the stop position is determined so as to reduce the number of drawn frames and the press detection position. The case where the stop position is determined so as to increase the number of drawn frames may be predetermined for each pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3, or the case where the stop position is determined so that the number of drawn frames is decreased. The case where the stop position is determined so as to increase the number of frames drawn from the pressing detection position may be determined in advance for each type of hitting bell.

  In other words, if no winning combination is made due to the stop operation being performed in an incorrect answering order at the time of winning the batting order bell, the active line displaying the symbols that make up the winning form of the incorrect answer bell, or the incorrect answer Depending on at least one of the pressing detection position and the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3, which of the active lines different from the active lines displaying the symbols constituting the winning pattern of the bell is to be displayed. Can be determined. In other words, on which effective line the RT fluctuation blank is displayed may be determined according to the pressed detection position, may be determined according to the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3, or pressed. You may determine according to the combination of a detection position and the pressing order of stop button B1-B3. In this way, various outcomes can be formed according to the operation mode when the stop operation is performed in the incorrect answering order.

  Further, according to the pressing order of the stop button, the reel is stopped so that the RT fluctuation blank is displayed on the active line on which the symbols constituting the incorrect answer bell winning form are displayed, and the incorrect answer bell winning form. The control for stopping the reel may be switched so that the RT fluctuation blank is displayed on the effective line different from the effective line on which the symbols constituting the symbol are displayed.

  For example, when the stop button B1 to B3 is pressed in the order of B2 → B3 → B1 at the time of winning the batting order bell A1, it is shown in FIG. 18 (A), FIG. 18 (B), and FIG. 18 (C). As shown in the figure, the reel is stopped so that the RT fluctuation blank 1 is displayed on the effective line on which the bell symbols constituting the incorrect answer bell winning form are displayed, and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are changed from B3 → B2 → B1. When pressed in order, as shown in FIGS. 19 (A), 19 (D), and 19 (E), an active line on which a bell symbol that constitutes a winning form for an incorrect answer bell is displayed. The reel can be stopped so that the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the different effective line.

  Also, depending on the type of batting order bell won in the internal lottery, the reel is stopped so that the RT fluctuation blank is displayed on the active line on which the symbols constituting the incorrect answer bell winning pattern are displayed, and the incorrect answer You may make it switch to the control which stops a reel so that RT fluctuation blank may be displayed on the effective line different from the effective line where the symbol which comprises the winning type of a bell is displayed. In this case, the type of RT fluctuation blank that is likely to be displayed on the effective line according to the type of batting order bell may be determined in advance. For example, in the batting order bells A1 to A3, the RT fluctuation blank 1 is changed to the RT fluctuation blank 2. The RT variation blank 2 may be displayed with priority over the RT variation blank 1 in the batting order bells B1 to B3 and the batting order bells C1 to C3.

  In the above embodiment, when the production state is the AT ready state, the production state is changed to the AT state based on the fact that the promoted replay wins in the first replay time state and the gaming state shifts to the second replay time state. The case of transition is described as an example, but when the production state is the AT preparation state, the production state is changed based on whether either the RT fluctuation blank 1 or the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the active line. You may make it transfer to AT state. In this case, when either the RT fluctuation blank 1 or the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the active line when the production state is the AT ready state and the gaming state is the normal state, the production state is set to the AT state. If the production state is the AT preparation state, the production state is set to the AT state when either the RT fluctuation blank 1 or the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the active line regardless of the gaming state. You may make it transfer. If the production state is the AT ready state, when either the RT fluctuation blank 1 or the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the active line regardless of the gaming state, Even if the batting order bell is won when the performance state is the AT preparation state, the execution of the first prize assisting effect is prohibited until the RT fluctuation blank 1 or the RT fluctuation blank 2 is displayed on the active line. Also good.
