A right sphere passage 270e communicating with the outlet 270c, a left sphere passage sensor 270f provided in the middle of the left sphere passage 270d, a right sphere passage sensor 270g provided in the middle of the right sphere passage 270e, and a sphere inlet 270a And an electric switching valve 270h provided below.

  The left sphere passage sensor 270f is a sensor that can detect whether or not the sphere has passed through the left sphere passage 270d. Hereinafter, the "sphere has detected that the left sphere passage sensor 270f has detected the passage of the sphere" It may be said that it has passed through the first gate region. Further, the right sphere passage sensor 270g is a sensor capable of detecting whether or not the sphere has passed through the right sphere passage 270e. Hereinafter, "the right sphere passage sensor 270g has detected the passage of the sphere" May have passed the second challenge gate area ”.

  The electric switching valve 270h includes a motor (not shown) and is configured to be swingable left and right with the lower end as a base point. In a state where the electric switching valve 270h is tilted to the left when viewed from the front, a ball that has entered the ball inlet 270a is prevented from entering the left sphere passage 270d and passes through the right sphere passage 270e (challenge gate second region). Is discharged from the right sphere outlet 270c. On the other hand, when the electric switching valve 270h is tilted to the right when viewed from the front (the state shown in FIG. 3), a ball that has entered the sphere inlet 270a is prevented from entering the right sphere passage 270e and passes through the left sphere passage 270d. Pass through (pass through the challenge gate first region) and exit from the left sphere exit 270b.

  In the pachinko machine 100 of this example, by changing the launch strength of the ball by operating the ball launching handle 134, the ball dropping path is divided into a right path on the right side of the game area 124 and a left path on the left side of the game area 124. be able to. In this example, when a ball is launched to the right path by a right strike, the ball that has entered the game area 124 is guided to the game nail 238 and must be (at a probability of 100%) at the ball entrance 270a of the challenge gate 270. ) If a ball is launched into the left path by left-handed, the ball that has entered the game area 124 must enter the ball entrance 270a of the challenge gate 270 (with a probability of 100%). It is configured not to sphere.

Although the function of the challenge gate 270 will be described later, when the pachinko machine 100 detects that a ball has entered the challenge gate 270 after the big hit flag is turned on in the big hit determination described later, the variable winning opening 234 Open / close control is started (a big hit game is started). The amount of profit given to the player (for example, the number of rounds of the big hit game) is determined by the passage of the first ball to the challenge gate 270, but the second and subsequent balls pass. May be determined by: In this case, there is an effect of preventing an error when the player passes a gate that is not intended. However, since the opening / closing control of the variable prize opening 234 is not started until the profit amount is determined, it is preferable that the number of balls after the second ball is not too large.

<Type of design>

  Next, using FIGS. 5A to 5D, the first special symbol display device 212, the second special symbol display device 214, the decorative symbol display device 208, and the normal symbol display device 210 of the pachinko machine 100 are stopped and displayed. The types of special maps and general maps to be described will be described. FIG. 4A shows an example of the stop symbol pattern of FIG. 1, and FIG. 4B shows an example of the stop symbol pattern of FIG.

  The special figure 1 variable game is started on the condition that the first start port sensor detects that the ball has entered the first special figure start port 230, and the ball has entered the second special figure start port 232 The special figure 2 variable game is started on the condition that the second start port sensor has detected. When the special figure 1 variable game is started, the first special symbol display device 212 performs “variable display of special figure 1” by repeating all lighting of seven segments and lighting of one central segment. In addition, when the special figure 2 variable game is started, the second special symbol display device 214 displays “fluctuation display of special figure 2” which repeats lighting of all seven segments and lighting of one central segment. Do. These “variation display of special figure 1” and “variation display of special figure 2” correspond to an example of the symbol fluctuation display according to the present invention.

  Then, when the variation time determined before the variation start of the special figure 1 (corresponding to the variation time referred to in the present invention) elapses, the first special symbol display device 212 stops and displays the special symbol form of the special figure 1. When the variation time determined before the start of variation 2 (this also corresponds to the variation time according to the present invention) has elapsed, the second special symbol display device 214 stops and displays the stop symbol form of the special diagram 2. Therefore, from the start of “figure display of special figure 1” until the stop symbol form of special figure 1 is stopped, or after the start of “fluctuation display of special figure 2”, the stop symbol form of special figure 2 is displayed. Until stop display corresponds to an example of the symbol variation stop display referred to in the present invention, hereinafter, after the “variable display of special figure 1 or 2” is started, the stop symbol form of special figure 1 or 2 is stopped and displayed. The series of displays up to is referred to as symbol variation stop display. As will be described later, the symbol variation stop display may be continuously performed a plurality of times.

  In FIG. 8 (a), eight types of special maps from “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure H” are shown as the stop pattern modes of Special Figure 1 in the symbol fluctuation stop display. In FIG. 8, eight types of special drawings from “special drawing a” to “special drawing h” are shown as the stop symbol forms of special drawing 2 in the symbol fluctuation stop display. In addition, the white part in a figure shows the location of the segment which turns off, and the black part shows the location of the segment which lights up.

  “Special Figure A” and “Special Figure a” are 16 round (16R) special jackpot symbols. In the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment, as will be described later, the determination as to whether or not the big hit in the special figure variable game is made by lottery of hardware random numbers, and the decision as to whether or not it is a special big hit is made by lottery of software random numbers. The difference between the jackpot and the special jackpot is the difference in whether the probability of winning the jackpot is high (special jackpot) or low (jackpot) in the next special figure variation game. Hereinafter, a state having a high probability of winning the jackpot is referred to as a special figure high probability state (or a probability variation state), and a state having a low probability is referred to as a special figure low probability state (or a non-probability variation state).

  In addition, after the 16R special big hit game ends, all shift to a time-saving state (electric support state). Although the time reduction will be described in detail later, the state that shifts to the time reduction state is called the normal high probability state (or electric support state), and the state that does not enter the time reduction state is the normal low probability state (or non-electrical state). It is called a support state. “Special Figure A” and “Special Figure a”, which are 16R special jackpot symbols, are in a special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state, and the profit amount given to the player is a relatively large profit amount. .

  Further, “Special Figure B”, “Special Figure b”, and “Special Figure c” are challenge gate target big hits (probability change), which will be described later, and are in a special figure high probability normal figure high probability state. “Special figure C” and “Special figure d” are challenge gate target big hits (non-probability change), which will be described later, and are a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state.

  "Special figure D" and "Special figure e" are 2R jackpot symbols, and are a special figure high probability normal figure high probability state (sudden probability change). “Special figure E” is a 2R jackpot symbol, which is a special figure high probability normal figure low probability state (hidden probability change). Further, “Special Figure F” and “Special Figure f” are the first small hit symbols, and “Special Figure G” is the second small hit symbol. In addition, “special chart H” and “special chart h” are out-of-order symbols, and the amount of profit given to the player is a relatively small profit amount.

  FIG. 5 (c) shows an example of a decorative design. There are 10 types of decoration patterns of the present embodiment: “Decoration 1” to “Decoration 10”. The first start port sensor detects that a ball has won the first special figure start port 230 or the second special view start port 232, that is, the ball has entered the first special view start port 230; or On the condition that the second start port sensor detects that a ball has entered the second special symbol start port 232, the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display of the decorative symbol display device 208 are displayed. Displayed in the order of “decoration 1” → “decoration 2” → “decoration 3” →... “Decoration 9” → “decoration 10” → “decoration 1” →... “Decoration display of decorative pattern” is performed.

  When notifying the above-mentioned challenge gate target jackpot (non-probability change), the symbol combination (for example, “decoration 2-decoration 2-decoration 2”) in which the same even three ornamental symbols are arranged in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. And “decoration 0-decoration 0-decoration 0”, etc.) are stopped and displayed. Even when the combination of three symbols with the same even number of decorative symbols is stopped and displayed, the game state becomes “probability change state (special figure high probability state)” due to the probability change notification during the big hit game. There is.

  Further, when notifying the above-mentioned challenge gate target big hit (probability change), a symbol combination (for example, “decoration 3—decoration 3” in which the same odd number (excluding 7) ornament symbols are arranged in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. “Decoration 3” and “decoration 1-decoration 1-decoration 1”) are stopped and displayed. When notifying the 16R special big hit, the symbol combination (“decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7”) in which three ornamental symbols of the ornament 7 are arranged in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c is stopped and displayed.

  When other sudden probability changes, hidden probability changes, and small hits are notified, a combination of symbols (for example, “decoration 1 -decoration 2 -decoration 3”) in which three ornamental symbols with consecutive numbers are arranged in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. ”Or“ decoration 9—decoration 0—decoration 1 ”, etc.), and when notifying of the deviation, the symbol combination other than the symbol combination shown in FIG. To do.

FIG.5 (d) shows an example of the usual stop display symbol. In the present embodiment, there are two types of stoppage display modes of “normal map A”, which is a winning symbol, and “general symbol B”, which is a missed symbol. Based on the fact that the above-mentioned gate sensor has detected that a sphere has passed through the general-purpose start opening 228, the normal symbol display device 210 repeats all lighting of the seven segments and lighting of the central one segment. Perform a “normal change display”. Then, when notifying the winning of the common figure variable game, the “normal figure A” is stopped and displayed, and when notifying the deviation of the common figure variable game, the “normal figure B” is stopped and displayed.

Then, when the low voltage signal is on (when the CPU 304 detects that the power supply is cut off), the process returns to step S103, and when the low voltage signal is off (when the CPU 304 does not detect that the power supply is cut off), The process proceeds to S107. Even when the predetermined value (9 V) is not yet reached immediately after the power is turned on, the process returns to step S103, and step S105 is repeatedly executed until the supply voltage becomes equal to or higher than the predetermined value.

  In step S107, initial setting 2 is performed. In this initial setting 2, a process for setting a numerical value for determining a cycle for executing a main control unit timer interrupt process, which will be described later, in the counter timer 312 and a predetermined port of the I / O 310 (for example, a test output port, A process of outputting a clear signal from the output port to the first sub control unit 400, a setting for permitting writing to the RAM 308, and the like are performed. In step S109, it is determined whether or not the state before the power interruption (before power interruption) is restored, and the state before the power interruption is not restored (when the basic circuit 302 of the main control unit 300 is set to the initial state). ) Proceeds to an initialization process (step S113).

  Specifically, first, a RAM clear signal transmitted when a store clerk or the like of an amusement store operates the RWM clear switch 180 provided on the power supply board is turned on (indicates that there has been an operation). That is, it is determined whether or not the RAM clear is necessary. If the RAM clear signal is on (when the RAM clear is necessary), the process proceeds to step S113 to set the basic circuit 302 to the initial state. On the other hand, when the RAM clear signal is OFF (when the RAM clear is not necessary), the power status information stored in the power status storage area provided in the RAM 308 is read, and the power status information is information indicating suspend. It is determined whether or not. If the power status information is not information indicating suspend, the process proceeds to step S113 to set the basic circuit 302 to an initial state. If the power status information is information indicating suspend, a predetermined area of the RAM 308 is set. A checksum is calculated by adding all the 1-byte data stored in (for example, all areas) to a 1-byte register whose initial value is 0, and the calculated checksum results in a specific value (for example, 0) (whether or not the checksum result is normal). When the checksum result is a specific value (eg, 0) (when the checksum result is normal), the process proceeds to step S111 to return to the state before the power interruption, and the checksum result is a specific value. If the value is other than 0 (for example, 0) (if the result of the checksum is abnormal), the process proceeds to step S113 to set the pachinko machine 100 to the initial state. Similarly, when the power status information indicates information other than “suspend”, the process proceeds to step S113.

  In step S111, power recovery processing is performed. In this power recovery process, the value of the stack pointer stored in the stack pointer save area provided in the RAM 308 at the time of power failure is read out and reset to the stack pointer (this setting). In addition, the value of each register stored in the register save area provided in the RAM 308 at the time of power interruption is read out and reset in each register, and then the interrupt permission is set. Thereafter, as a result of the CPU 304 executing the control program based on the reset stack pointer and registers, the pachinko machine 100 returns to the state when the power is turned off. That is, the processing is resumed from the instruction next to the instruction (predetermined in step S115) performed immediately before branching to the timer interrupt process (described later) immediately before the power interruption. A RAM 308 mounted on the basic circuit 302 in the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 4 is provided with a transmission information storage area. In step S111, a power recovery command is set in the transmission information storage area. This power recovery command is a command indicating that the power has been restored to the state at the time of power-off, and is transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 in step S233 in the timer interrupt process of the main control unit 300 described later.

  In step S113, initialization processing is performed. In this initialization process, interrupt prohibition setting, stack initial value setting to the stack pointer (this setting), initialization of all storage areas of the RAM 308, and the like are performed. Further, here, a normal return command is set in the transmission information storage area provided in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300. This normal return command is a command indicating that the initialization process (step S113) of the main control unit 300 has been performed, and in the same way as the power recovery command, in step S233 in the timer interrupt process of the main control unit 300, 1 is transmitted to the sub-control unit 400.

In step S115, after setting for prohibition of interruption, a basic random number initial value update process is performed. In this basic random number initial value update process, two initial value generation random number counters for generating the initial values of the ordinary figure winning random number counter and the special figure random value counter, the ordinary figure timer random number value, and the special figure timer, respectively. Two random number counters for generating each random value are updated. For example, if the range of values that can be taken as a normal timer random number value is 0 to 100, a value is acquired from a random number counter storage area for generating a normal timer random value provided in the RAM 308, and 1 is added to the acquired value. Then, it is stored in the original random number counter storage area. At this time, if the result of adding 1 to the acquired value is 101, 0 is stored in the original random number counter storage area. Other initial value generation random number counters and random number counters are similarly updated. Note that the initial value generation random number counter is also updated in step S207 described later. The main control unit 300 repeatedly executes the process of step S115 except during a timer interrupt process that starts every predetermined period.
<Main control unit timer interrupt processing>

  Next, a main control unit timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 will be described with reference to FIG. This figure is a flowchart showing the flow of the main control unit timer interrupt process.

  The main control unit 300 includes a counter timer 312 that generates a timer interrupt signal at a predetermined cycle (in this embodiment, about once every 2 ms), and the main control unit timer interrupt is triggered by this timer interrupt signal. The process is started at a predetermined cycle. In step S201, a timer interrupt start process is performed. In this timer interrupt start process, a process of temporarily saving each register value of the CPU 304 to the stack area is performed.

  In step S203, the WDT is periodically updated (so that the count value of the WDT 314 exceeds the initial setting value (32.8 ms in the present embodiment) and no WDT interruption occurs (so as not to detect a processing abnormality). In the embodiment, the restart is performed once every about 2 ms, which is the period of the main control unit timer interrupt.

  In step S205, input port state update processing is performed. In this input port state update process, the detection signals of various sensors 320 including the above-mentioned front frame door open sensor, inner frame open sensor, lower pan full sensor, and various ball detection sensors are input via the input port of the I / O 310. The input is monitored for the presence or absence of a detection signal, and stored in a signal state storage area provided for each of the various sensors 320 in the RAM 308. If the detection signal of the sphere detection sensor is described as an example, information on the presence / absence of the detection signal of each sphere detection sensor detected in the timer interruption process (about 4 ms before) is stored in the RAM 308 for each sphere detection sensor. This information is read out from the previous detection signal storage area partitioned and stored in the RAM 308 in the previous detection signal storage area partitioned for each sphere detection sensor, and the previous timer interrupt processing (about 2 ms before) ) Is read from the current detection signal storage area provided for each sphere detection sensor in the RAM 308, and this information is read out from the previous detection signal storage area described above. To remember. Further, the detection signal of each sphere detection sensor detected this time is stored in the above-described current detection signal storage area.

  Further, in step S205, the information on the presence or absence of the detection signal of each sphere detection sensor stored in each storage area of the above-mentioned detection signal storage area, the previous detection signal storage area, and the current detection signal storage area is compared. It is determined whether or not the information on the presence or absence of detection signals for the past three times in the ball detection sensor matches the winning determination pattern information. This main control unit timer interrupt process that is repeatedly started at a very short interval of about 2 ms while one game ball passes one ball detection sensor is started several times. For this reason, every time the main control unit timer interrupt process is activated, in step S205 described above, a detection signal indicating that the same game ball has passed the same ball detection sensor is confirmed. As a result, a detection signal indicating that the same game ball has passed the same ball detection sensor is stored in each of the detection signal storage area, the previous detection signal storage area, and the current detection signal storage area. That is, when the game ball starts to pass through the ball detection sensor, there is no detection signal before, a previous detection signal, and a current detection signal. In the present embodiment, in consideration of erroneous detection of the sphere detection sensor and noise, it is determined that there is a prize when the detection signal is stored twice continuously after no detection signal. The ROM 306 of the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 4 stores winning determination pattern information (in this embodiment, information indicating that there is no previous detection signal, that there is a previous detection signal, and that there is a current detection signal). In this step S205, information on the presence or absence of detection signals for the past three times in each sphere detection sensor is predetermined winning determination pattern information (in this embodiment, no previous detection signal, previous detection signal, current detection signal present). In the case of the general winning port 226, the variable winning port 234, the first special figure starting port 230, and the second special figure starting port 232, or the ordinary drawing starting port 228. Is determined to have passed. In other words, it is determined that a prize has been awarded to the winning ports 226 and 234 and the starting ports 230, 232, and 228.

  For example, when the information on the presence / absence of the detection signals for the past three matches with the above-described winning determination pattern information in the general winning opening sensor for detecting the winning at the general winning opening 226, there is a winning at the general winning opening 226. If the information on the presence / absence of detection signals for the past three times does not match the above-described winning determination pattern information, the subsequent general winnings are performed. The process branches to the subsequent process without performing the process associated with winning the prize to the mouth 226. Note that the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300 stores winning determination clear pattern information (in this embodiment, information indicating that there is a detection signal before the previous time, no previous detection signal, and no current detection signal). After it is determined that there has been a single win, it is not determined that there has been a win until the information on the presence or absence of detection signals for the past three times matches the winning determination clear pattern information in each ball detection sensor, and the winning determination is cleared. If it matches the pattern information, it is next determined whether or not it matches the winning determination pattern information.

  In step S207 and step S209, basic random number initial value update processing and basic random number update processing are performed. In these basic random number initial value update processing and basic random number update processing, the value of the initial value generation random number counter performed in step S115 is updated, and then the normal winning random number value used in the main control unit 300, Two random number counters for generating the special figure 1 random value and the special figure 2 random value are updated. For example, if the range of values that can be taken as a random number value for a normal winning number is 0 to 100, a value is acquired from a random number counter storage area for generating a normal winning random number value provided in the RAM 308, and 1 is added to the acquired value. Then, it is stored in the original random number counter storage area. At this time, if the result of adding 1 to the acquired value is 101, 0 is stored in the original random number counter storage area. If it is determined that the random number counter has made one round as a result of adding 1 to the acquired value, the value of the initial value generating random number counter corresponding to each random number counter is acquired and stored in the storage area of the random number counter. set. For example, a value is acquired from a random number counter for generating a regular winning random number that fluctuates in a numerical range of 0 to 100, and a result obtained by adding 1 to the acquired value is stored in a predetermined initial value storage area provided in the RAM 308. If the value is equal to the previously set initial value (for example, 7), the value is acquired as an initial value from the initial value generation random number counter corresponding to the random number counter for generating the random number for winning the normal number, The initial value set this time is stored in the above-described initial value storage area in order to determine that the random number counter for generating the winning random number value has made one round next time, in addition to setting it in the random number counter for generating the winning random value Keep it. Further, apart from the above-described initial value storage area for determining that the random number counter for generating the random number for winning the normal signal has made one round next, it is determined that the random number counter for generating the special figure random number has made one round. An initial value storage area is provided in the RAM 308. In the present embodiment, the counter for acquiring the random number value of FIG. 1 and the counter for acquiring the random value of FIG. 2 are separately provided, but the same counter may be used.

  In step S211, effect random number update processing is performed. In this effect random number update process, a random number counter for generating an effect random number used by the main control unit 300 is updated. In step S213, timer update processing is performed. In this timer update process, the normal symbol display symbol update timer for timing the time for the symbol to be changed / stopped on the normal symbol display device 210, and the time for the symbol to be changed / stopped to be displayed on the first special symbol display device 212 are timed. Special symbol 1 display symbol update timer for performing, special symbol 2 display symbol update timer for measuring the time for the symbol to be changed and stopped on the second special symbol display device 214, a predetermined winning effect time, a predetermined opening time Various timers including a timer for measuring a predetermined closing time, a predetermined end effect period, and the like are updated.

  In step S215, winning prize counter update processing is performed. In step S217, a winning acceptance process is performed. In this winning acceptance process, it is determined whether or not there has been a winning at the first special figure starting port 230, the second special figure starting port 232, the ordinary drawing starting port 228, and the variable winning port 234. Here, the determination is made using the determination result of whether or not it matches the winning determination pattern information in step S203. When a winning is made at the first special figure starting port 230 and the corresponding reserved number storage area provided in the RAM 308 is not full, the value is stored in the special counter value storage register of the counter circuit 318. (Special Figure Winning Random Value Used for Jackpot Judgment in Special Figure 1), the Design Lottery Random Number Value is acquired as a Special Lottery Random Value per Special Figure 1, Get as a number. Then, these random number values are stored in the special figure 1 start information storage area provided in the RAM 308 in association with the current number of suspensions in the special figure 1.

  Further, when a winning is made to the second special figure starting port 232 and the corresponding holding number storage area provided in the RAM 308 is not full, the value is read from the winning counter value storage register of the counter circuit 318. Obtained as a random number value (special figure winning random number value used for jackpot determination in special figure 2), obtaining a symbol lottery random value as a symbol lottery random value per special figure 2, As a random value for use. Then, these random number values are stored in the special figure 2 start information storage area provided in the RAM 308 in association with the current pending number in the special figure 2.

  Further, when a winning is made at the usual figure starting port 228 and the corresponding reserved number storage area provided in the RAM 308 is not full, a value is obtained as a usual figure winning random number value from the random number counter for generating the usual figure winning random number value. And stored in the corresponding random number value storage area. Further, when a winning is made at the variable winning opening 234, information indicating that a ball has entered the variable winning opening 234 is stored in the winning storage area for the variable winning opening.

  In step S219, a payout request number transmission process is performed. Note that the output schedule information and the payout request information output to the payout control unit 600 are composed of, for example, 1 byte, strobe information (indicating that data is set when ON), bit 6 Power-on information (if turned on, indicates that this is the first command transmission after power-on), bits 4-5 indicate the current processing type for encryption (0-3), and bits 0-3 indicate encryption The number of payout requests after processing is shown.

  In step S221, a normal state update process is performed. This normal state update process performs one of a plurality of processes corresponding to the normal state. For example, in the normal state update process in the middle of the normal symbol display (the above-described general symbol display symbol update timer value is 1 or more), the 7-segment LED constituting the normal symbol display device 210 is repeatedly turned on and off. Turns off drive control. By performing this control, the normal symbol display device 210 performs a usual fluctuation display (ordinary figure fluctuation game).

  Also, in the normal state update process at the timing when the normal symbol change display time has elapsed (the timing at which the value of the general symbol display symbol update timer has changed from 1 to 0), if the hit flag is on, the hit symbol is displayed. The normal symbol display device 210 is controlled so that the 7-segment LED constituting the normal symbol display device 210 is turned on / off, and when the hit flag is off, the normal symbol display device 210 is configured to be in the off symbol display mode. 7 segment LED on / off drive control is performed. Further, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 is provided with a setting area for performing various settings in various processes, not limited to the normal state update process. Here, the above-described lighting / extinguishing drive control is performed, and the setting area is set to indicate that the normal stop display is being performed. By performing this control, the normal symbol display device 210 has either the winning symbol (the common symbol A shown in FIG. 5 (d)) or the off symbol (the universal symbol B shown in FIG. 5 (d)). Confirm display. Thereafter, information indicating the stop period is set in a storage area of a normal stop time management timer provided in the RAM 308 in order to maintain the display for a predetermined stop display period (for example, 500 msec). With this setting, the symbol that has been confirmed and displayed is stopped and displayed for a predetermined period, and the player is notified of the result of the normal game.

  Further, if the result of the usual figure variable game is a hit, the usual figure hit flag is turned on as will be described later. When the usual figure hit flag is on, in the usual figure state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period ends (when the usual figure stop time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), The normal operation is set in the setting area, and the blade member 232a is opened to the solenoid (332) for opening and closing the blade member 232a of the second special figure starting port 232 for a predetermined opening period (for example, 2 seconds). And a signal indicating the open period is set in the storage area of the blade open time management timer provided in the RAM 308.

  In the usual state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (the timing when the value of the blade opening time management timer is changed from 1 to 0), the blade member has a predetermined closing period (for example, 500 milliseconds). A signal for holding the blade member in the closed state is output to the opening / closing drive solenoid 332, and information indicating the closing period is set in the storage area of the blade closing time management timer provided in the RAM 308.

  Further, in the normal state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined closing period ends (when the value of the blade closing time management timer is changed from 1 to 0), the non-operating state is set in the setting area of the RAM 308. To do. Furthermore, if the result of the usual figure fluctuation game is out, the usual figure out flag is turned on as will be described later. When the off-normal flag is on, the normal state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period described above ends (the timing at which the normal stop time management timer value changes from 1 to 0) In the setting area of the RAM 308, normal operation inactive is set. In the general state update process in the case where the general map is not operating, nothing is done and the process proceeds to the next step S223.

  In step S223, a general drawing related lottery process is performed. In this general map-related lottery process, the open / close control of the general map variable game and the second special map start port 232 is not performed (the state of the general map is not in operation), and the pending general map variable game is not held. When the number is 1 or more, it is decided whether to win or not to win the result of the variable figure game by random lottery based on the random number value stored in the random number value storage area. When the winning judgment is made and the winning is made, the winning flag provided in the RAM 308 is set to ON. If unsuccessful, turn off the winning flag. Regardless of the result of the hit determination, next, the value of the random number counter for generating the normal figure timer random value is acquired as the normal figure timer random number value, and a plurality of fluctuation times are obtained based on the acquired general figure timer random number value. One time is selected for variably displaying the normal map on the general map display device 210, and this variable display time is stored as a normal map variable display time in a general map variable time storage area provided in the RAM 308. In addition, the number of pending general figure variable games is stored in the usual figure pending number storage area provided in the RAM 308, and from the number of pending custom figure variable games each time a hit determination is made. The value obtained by subtracting 1 is re-stored in the usual figure reservation number storage area. Also, the random number value used for the hit determination is deleted.

  In step S224, special figure prefetching processing is performed (details will be described later). Next, the special figure state update process for each of the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 is performed. First, the special figure state update process (the special figure 2 state update process) for the special figure 2 is performed (step S225). In the special figure 2 state update process, one of the following eight processes is performed in accordance with the state of the special figure 2. For example, in the special figure 2 state update process in the middle of the special figure 2 fluctuation display (the value of the above-mentioned special figure 2 display symbol update timer is 1 or more), the 7-segment LED constituting the second special symbol display device 214 is turned on. Performs lighting / extinguishing drive control that repeatedly turns off. By performing this control, the second special symbol display device 214 performs the variable display of the special figure 2 (special figure 2 variable game). In addition, predetermined transmission information indicating that the rotation start setting transmission process is to be executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the above-described transmission information storage area, and the process ends.

  In the special figure 2 state update process that starts at the timing when the special figure 2 variable display time has elapsed (the timing when the value of the special figure 2 display symbol update timer changes from 1 to 0), the special figure a shown in FIG. ~ Confirmed display of any one symbol of special figure h. After that, information indicating the stop period is set in the storage area of the special figure 2 stop time management timer provided in the RAM 308 in order to maintain the display for a predetermined stop display period (for example, 500 milliseconds). With this setting, the specially displayed special figure 2 is stopped and displayed for a predetermined period, and the result of the special figure 2 variable game is notified to the player. In addition, if the time reduction number stored in the time reduction number storage unit provided in the RAM 308 is 1 or more, 1 is subtracted from the time reduction number, and if the subtraction result becomes 1 to 0, the special figure probability is changing. If not (details will be described later), the time reduction flag is turned off. Further, the hourly flag is also turned off during the big hit game (in the special game state).

  Further, the special transmission information indicating that the rotation stop setting transmission process is executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the above-described transmission information storage area, and the design for stopping the variable display is shown in FIG. The special figure 2 identification information indicating the presence is additionally stored in the RAM 308 as information to be included in command data, which will be described later, and the processing is terminated.

  If the result of the special figure 2 variable game is a big hit, the big hit flag is turned on as will be described later. When the jackpot flag is on, in the special figure 2 state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period ends (the timing when the special figure 2 stop time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), the RAM 308 In the setting area, the special figure 2 is in operation and waits for a predetermined winning effect period (for example, 3 seconds), that is, a period during which an image for notifying the player that the big win by the decorative symbol display device 208 is started is displayed. Therefore, information indicating the winning effect period is set in the storage area of the special figure 2 standby time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the winning effect setting transmission process is executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Further, in the special figure 2 state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined winning effect period ends (the timing when the value of the special figure 2 standby time management timer changes from 1 to 0), a predetermined release period (for example, 29 seconds) Alternatively, the door member 234a is opened to the open / close drive solenoid (332) of the door member 234a of the variable winning port 234 (until a winning of a predetermined number of game balls (for example, maximum count) is detected in the variable winning port 234). A signal for maintaining the state is output, and information indicating the opening period is set in the storage area of the door opening time management timer provided in the RAM 308. In addition, predetermined transmission information indicating that the special winning opening release setting transmission process is executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  In the special figure 2 state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (the timing when the door opening time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), the predetermined closing period (for example, 1.5 seconds) A signal for holding the door member 234a in a closed state is output to a solenoid (332) for opening and closing the door member 234a of the variable prize opening 234, and a closing period is stored in a storage area of a door closing time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Set the information indicating. In addition, predetermined transmission information indicating that the special winning opening closing setting transmission process is executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Further, in the special figure 2 state update process that starts and closes the opening / closing control of the door member a predetermined number of times, the jackpot by the decorative symbol display device 208 is ended for a predetermined end effect period (for example, 3 seconds). In order to set so as to wait for a period during which an image for informing the player of the image is displayed, information indicating the effect standby period is set in the storage area of the effect standby time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Also, if the normal probability fluctuation flag is set to ON, the number of hours (for example, 100) is set in the hour / hour number storage unit provided in the RAM 308 and the RAM 308 is provided at the same time as the end of the big hit game. Turn on the short time flag. If the usual time probability variation flag is set to OFF, the time reduction number is not set in the time reduction number storage unit, and the time reduction flag is not turned ON. The short time here means that the pachinko machine is in an advantageous state for the player in order to shorten the time from the end of the big hit in the special figure variable game to the start of the next big hit. If the short time flag is set to ON at this time, it is a normal high probability state. There is a higher probability of hitting a general-purpose variable game in the high-probability state than in the low-probability state. In addition, the fluctuation time of the normal figure variable game and the fluctuation time of the special figure variable game are shorter in the normal figure high probability state than in the normal figure low probability state. Further, in the normal high probability state, the opening time in one opening of the pair of blade members 232a of the second special start port 232 tends to be longer than in the normal low probability state. In addition, the pair of blade members 232a are more likely to open in the normal high probability state than in the normal low probability state. In addition, as described above, the hourly flag is set to off during the big hit game (in the special game state). Therefore, the normal low probability state is maintained during the big hit game. This is because, if the game is in a high probability state during the big hit game, the predetermined number of game balls enter the first variable winning opening 234 or the second variable winning opening 235 during the big hit game. To solve this, there is a problem that many game balls enter the special figure starting port 232 and the number of game balls that can be acquired during the big hit increases, resulting in an increase in euphoria. It is.

  Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the end effect setting transmission process is executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Also, in the special figure 2 state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined end production period ends (when the production standby time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), the special figure 2 is not activated in the setting area of the RAM 308. Set medium. Further, if the result of the special figure 2 variable game is out of the way, the off flag is turned on as will be described later. In the case where the miss flag is on, even in the special figure 2 state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period described above ends (the timing when the special figure 2 stop time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), In the setting area of the RAM 308, special figure 2 inactive is set. In the special figure 2 state update process when the special figure 2 is not in operation, nothing is done and the process proceeds to the next step S227.

  Subsequently, special figure state update processing (special figure 1 state update process) for special figure 1 is performed (step S227). In the special figure 1 state update process, each process described in the special figure 2 state update process is performed according to the state of the special figure 1. Each process performed in the special figure 1 state update process is the same as the process in which “special figure 2” in the contents described in the special figure 2 state update process is replaced with “special figure 1”. Omitted. The order of the special figure 2 state update process and the special figure 1 state update process may be reversed.

  When the special figure state update process in step S225 and step S227 is completed, a special figure related lottery process for each of special figure 1 and special figure 2 is performed. Also here, first, a special drawing related lottery process for special figure 2 (a special drawing 2 related lottery process) is performed (step S229), and then a special drawing related lottery process for special figure 1 (a special drawing 1 related lottery process). ) Is performed (step S231). Also for these special drawing related lottery processes, the main control unit 300 performs the special figure 2 related lottery processing before the special figure 1 related lottery processing, so that the special figure 2 variable game start condition and the special figure 1 fluctuation Even if the game start conditions are satisfied at the same time, since the special figure 2 variable game is changing first, the special figure 1 variable game does not start changing. Further, the notification of the result of the jackpot determination of the special figure variable game by the decorative symbol display device 208 is performed by the first sub-control unit 400, and the lottery result of the lottery based on the winning at the second special figure starting port 232 is notified. However, it is performed in preference to the notification of the lottery result of the lottery based on the winning at the first special figure starting port 230.

  In step S233, command setting transmission processing is performed, and various commands are transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400. The output schedule information to be transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 is composed of 16 bits, for example, bit 15 is strobe information (indicating that data is set when ON), bits 11 to 14 are Command type (In this embodiment, command types such as basic command, symbol variation start command, symbol variation stop command, winning effect start command, end effect start command, jackpot round number designation command, power recovery command, RAM clear command are specified. Possible information), bits 0 to 10 are composed of command data (predetermined information corresponding to the command type).

  Specifically, the strobe information is turned on and off in the command transmission process described above. If the command type is a symbol variation start command, the command includes a big hit flag, a small hit flag, a 16R big hit flag, a 2R big hit flag, a special figure probability fluctuation flag (probability change / Information indicating the uncertain change), the stop symbol of the special figure 1 (or special figure 2) selected in the above-described symbol lottery, the number of rounds selected in the above-mentioned round number determination lottery, and the above-described variation display Information indicating the variable display time selected in the time determination lottery is included.

  In the case of the symbol variation stop command, the value of the 16R jackpot flag, the 2R jackpot flag, the value of the special figure probability variation flag, etc. are included. In the case of a big hit round number designation command, the value of the special figure probability fluctuation flag, the number of big hit rounds, etc. are included. When the command type indicates a basic command, device information in the command data, presence / absence of winning at the first special figure starting port 230, presence / absence of winning at the second special figure starting port 232, winning of the variable winning port 234 Includes presence or absence.

  In the first sub-control unit 400, it is possible to determine the production control according to the change of the game control in the main control unit 300 by the command type included in the received output schedule information, and it is included in the output schedule information. Based on the information of the command data, the contents of effect control can be determined.

  In step S235, an external output signal setting process is performed. In this external output signal setting process, the game information stored in the RAM 308 is output to the information input circuit 350 separate from the pachinko machine 100 via the information output circuit 336.

  In step S237, device monitoring processing is performed. In this device monitoring process, the signal states of the various sensors stored in the signal state storage area in step S205 are read, and the presence or absence of a predetermined error, for example, the presence or absence of a front frame door opening error or the presence or absence of a full tray error is monitored. When the front frame door opening error or the lower pan full error is detected, the transmission information to be transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 includes device information indicating the presence or absence of the front frame door opening error or the lower pan full error. Set. Further, various solenoids 332 are driven to control the opening and closing of the second special figure starting port 232 and the variable prize opening 234, and the normal symbol display device 210 and the first special symbol display via the display circuits 324, 326 and 330. Display data to be output to the device 212, the second special symbol display device 214, the various status display units 328, and the like is set in the output port of the I / O 310. Further, the output schedule information set in the payout request number transmission process (step S219) is output to the first sub-control unit 400 via the output port (I / O 310).

  In step S239, it is monitored whether or not the low voltage signal is on. Then, when the low voltage signal is on (when power supply cutoff is detected), the process proceeds to step S243, and when the low voltage signal is off (when power supply cutoff is not detected), the process proceeds to step S241.

  In step S241, timer interrupt end processing is performed. In this timer interrupt end process, the value of each register temporarily saved in step S201 is set in each original register, interrupt permission is set, and the like, and then the process returns to the main process of the main control unit.

On the other hand, in step S243, a specific variable or stack pointer for returning to the power-off state at the time of power recovery is saved in a predetermined area of the RAM 308 as return data, and power-off processing such as initialization of input / output ports is performed. Then, the process returns to the main process of the main control unit.
<Special figure look-ahead processing>

  Next, with reference to FIG. 14A, the special figure prefetching process (step S224) in the above-described main control unit timer interrupt process will be described. FIG. 5A is a flowchart showing the flow of special figure prefetching processing.

  In step S251, the starting information of the special figure 2 (in this embodiment, the special figure 2 winning random number value) is obtained based on the fact that a predetermined ball detection sensor has detected that the ball has won the second special figure starting port 232. It is determined whether or not the number has increased. If applicable, the process proceeds to step S252. If not, the process proceeds to step S254.

  In step S252, pre-reading is performed with reference to the starting information increased by winning the second special figure starting port 232. In this embodiment, the jackpot determination, symbol lottery, and variable display time determination lottery described above are performed, and the success / failure type information determined by these lotteries, the special symbol 2 stop symbol, and the variable display time are prefetched (acquired) as prefetch information. )

  In step S253, the prefetch information prefetched in step S252 and the current special figure 2 variable game hold count are stored in the special figure 2 prefetch information storage area provided in the RAM 308 (see, for example, FIGS. 14B and 2). To remember. In this example, when the start information of special figure 2 increases, it is configured to read ahead unconditionally. For example, in the non-electric support state, the start information of special figure 2 is Without reference, information indicating “undecided” may be stored in the pre-read information storage area for special figure 2 (that is, processing corresponding to steps S255 and S258 described later may be applied to special figure 2). ). Also, in step S253, preparations are made for transmitting the prefetch information stored in the special figure 2 prefetch information storage area to the first sub-control unit 400 as a pending increase command.

  In step S254, the start information of the special figure 1 (in this embodiment, the special figure 1 winning random number value) is obtained based on the detection of a predetermined ball detection sensor that the ball has won the first special figure start port 230. It is determined whether or not the number has increased. If applicable, the process proceeds to step S255, and if not, the process ends. In step S255, it is determined whether or not non-electric support is in progress. If applicable, the process proceeds to step S256, and if not, the process proceeds to step S258.

  In step S256, prefetching is performed with reference to the starting information increased by winning the first special figure starting port 230. In this embodiment, the jackpot determination, symbol lottery, and variable display time determination lottery described above are performed, and the success / failure type information determined by these lotteries, the special symbol 1 stop symbol, and the variable display time are prefetched (acquired) as prefetch information. )

  In step S257, the prefetched information prefetched in step S256 and the current special figure 1 variable game hold number are stored in the special figure 1 prefetched information storage area provided in the RAM 308 (for example, FIG. 14B (1) or FIG. 14 (b) (see (3)). In addition, preparation is made to transmit the prefetch information stored in the prefetch information storage area for special figure 1 to the first sub-control unit 400 as a pending increase command. In step S258, without referring to the start information in FIG. 1, information indicating “not determined” is stored in the pre-read information storage area for special figure 1, and the process is terminated.

  FIG. 14B is a diagram showing the contents of the prefetch information. For example, the hit symbol type of the special figure 1 includes the special figures A to H described with reference to FIG. 5A and “undecided” indicating that the symbol lottery has not ended. The hit symbol types of special figure 2 include special figures a to h described with reference to FIG. 5B and “undecided” indicating that the symbol lottery has not ended. (B) and (1) are examples in which the prefetch result of special figure 1 is stored in the special figure 1 prefetch result storage unit. In this example, the prefetch result of special figure 1 corresponds to hold 1 Special figure F, special figure F corresponding to hold 2, special figure A corresponding to hold 3, and special figure F corresponding to hold 4 are stored.

FIGS. 2B and 2B are examples in which the prefetch result of special figure 2 is stored in the special figure 2 prefetch result storage unit. In this example, as the prefetch result of special figure 2, the hold 1 The special figure d corresponding to is stored. (B) and (3) are examples in which the prefetch result of special figure 1 is stored in the special figure 1 prefetch result storage unit in the electric support, and in this example, as the prefetch result of special figure 1, The undecided corresponding to the hold 1 is stored.
<Special drawing related lottery processing>

  Next, with reference to FIG. 15, the special figure related lottery process executed in the special figure 2 related lottery process (step S229) and the special figure 1 related lottery process (step S231) in the main control unit timer interruption process described above. explain. In addition, the figure is a flowchart which shows the flow of a special drawing related lottery process.

  In step S310, it is determined whether the special figure display device (the first special figure display device 212 or the second special figure display device 214) is displaying or operating the special figure. If the process is not applicable, the process proceeds to step S303. In step S303, it is determined whether or not there is a hold of the special figure variable game. If there is no hold, the process is terminated, and if there is a hold, the process proceeds to step S305.

  In step S305, it is determined whether the special figure probability variation flag is on or off. If it is on (in the case of a special figure high probability state), the process proceeds to step S307, and if it is off (in the case of a special figure low probability state). In step S309, the process proceeds to step S309. In step S307, the big hit determination is performed using the high probability table for determining appropriateness shown in FIGS. 6B and 6D. In step S309, the low value for determining appropriateness shown in FIGS. 6A and 6D is determined. A big hit is judged using a probability table.

As a result of the jackpot determination, if the jackpot is won, the process proceeds to step S319 to determine the jackpot symbol by symbol lottery and then proceeds to step S321. As a result of the big hit determination, if the small win is won, the process proceeds to step S317 to determine the small hit symbol by the symbol lottery, and then proceeds to step S321. As a result of the big hit determination, if the big hit or the small hit is not won, the process proceeds to step S315, and after the symbol lottery is determined by the symbol lottery, the process proceeds to step S321. In step S321, the process ends after the variable display time is determined by the variable display time determination lottery.
<Round decision processing>

  Next, the round determination process executed in the special figure 2 state update process (step S225) and the special figure 1 state update process (step S227) in the above-described main control unit timer interrupt process will be described with reference to FIG. . This figure is a flowchart showing the flow of the round determination process.

  In step S401, it is determined whether the challenge gate valid period flag stored in the RAM 308 is on or off. If it is off, the process ends. If it is on, the process proceeds to step S402 and subsequent steps. Here, the challenge gate valid period flag means that the special symbol stop symbol determined in the symbol lottery is a big hit for the challenge gate (in this example, special figure B, special figure C, special figure b, special figure c, or special figure). In the case of FIG. D), the flag is set from OFF to ON after a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds) has elapsed since the big hit game. A period when the challenge gate valid period flag is on may be referred to as a challenge gate valid period or a challenge gate valid state.

  In step S402, it is determined whether or not the sphere has passed the first challenge gate region. If applicable, the process proceeds to step S403, and if not, the process proceeds to step S404. In step S404, it is determined whether or not the sphere has passed the challenge gate second region. If applicable, the process proceeds to step S405, and if not, the process ends.

In step S403, referring to the table for determining the number of rounds shown in FIG. 8A (when the challenge gate passes through the first area), the jackpot based on the stop symbol and random number of the special symbol determined in the symbol lottery Determine the number of rounds in the game. In this example, as described above, 2R is determined with a probability of 50%, and 16R is determined with a probability of 50%. Further, in step S405, referring to the round number determination table shown in FIG. 8B (when the challenge gate passes through the second region), based on the stop symbol and random number value of the special figure determined by the symbol lottery. Determine the number of rounds of the jackpot game. In this example, as described above, 9R is determined with a probability of 100%. In step S406, after the challenge gate valid period flag is set to OFF, the process ends.
<Data table of first sub-control unit>

Next, a data table stored in the ROM 406 of the first sub control unit 400 of the pachinko machine 100 will be described.
<Pending advance notice lottery table>

  FIG. 17A shows an example of the in-hold advance notice lottery table. The in-hold advance notice lottery table includes prefetch results 1 to 4 in the prefetch information storage area for special figure 2 (see FIG. 14B above). The stop symbol of special figure 2 stored in (2)), lottery value data, and the mode of notice in suspension are stored in association with each other. In this example, the on-hold notice mode includes no notice, a notice effect using the character A, a notice effect using the character B, and a notice effect using the character C. In the notice effect using the character C, , A special sound (sound effect “Kean”) is output from the speaker 120.

  The basic circuit 402 of the first sub-control unit 400 includes the on-hold notice lottery table, the stop pattern of special figure 2 stored in the prefetch results 1 to 4 of the prefetch information storage area for special figure 2, and the acquired random value. Based on (in this example, 0 to 99), the on-hold notice lottery for determining the on-hold notice mode is performed.

  For example, when the stop symbol of special figure 2 stored in the prefetch results 1 to 4 in the special figure 2 prefetch information storage area is only one of special figure e, special figure f, special figure g, or special figure h When the random number is a numerical value from 0 to 97, no notice is selected as the on-hold notice mode, and when the random value is a numerical value from 98 to 99, the character A is used as the on-hold notice form. Select a notice effect using. That is, when the prefetch results 1 to 4 in the special figure 2 are neither the 16R special big hit (special figure a) nor the challenge gate target big hit (special figure b, special figure c, special figure d), a high probability (this example) With no probability of 98%), no notice is selected.

  In addition, the stop pattern of special figure 2 stored in the prefetch results 1 to 4 in the prefetch information storage area for special figure 2 includes 16R special big hit (special figure a), challenge gate target big hit (special figure b, special figure c, When any one of the special figures d) is included, when the random value is a numerical value of 0 to 89, as the mode of the on-hold notice, “no notice” is selected, and the random value is a numerical value of 90 to 95 In some cases, a notice effect using the character A is selected as the on-hold notice mode, and when the random number is a numerical value of 96 to 99, the notice effect using the character B is used as the on-hold notice form. select.

  As is clear from FIG. 17A, when a notice using character B is made, 16R special jackpot (special figure a) is added to the stop pattern of special figure 2 stored in the prefetch results 1 to 4. ), It is determined that at least one of the challenge gate target jackpots (special figure b, special figure c, special figure d) is included.

  In addition, the stop pattern of special figure 2 stored in the prefetch results 1 to 4 in the prefetch information storage area for special figure 2 includes 16R special big hit (special figure a), challenge gate target big hit (special figure b, special figure c, When any one of the special figures d) is included, if the random number is a numerical value of 0 to 89, no notice is selected as the on-hold notice mode, and the random value is 90 to 98. Is selected as the notice of hold notice, the notice effect using character B is selected. When the random number is 99, the notice notice effect using character C is selected as the notice of hold notice. Select.

As is clear from FIG. 6A, when a notice (including the output of a special sound) using the character C is made, the stop symbol of the special figure 2 stored in the prefetch results 1 to 4 is displayed. , 16R special jackpot (special chart a) and challenge gate target jackpots (special chart b, special chart c, special chart d) are determined to be included.
<Game state notice lottery table>

  FIG. 17 (b) shows an example of the gaming state notice lottery table. In this gaming state notice lottery table, the stop pattern of the special figure, the lottery value data, and the state of the gaming state notice are associated with each other. Is remembered. In this example, there are a normal BGM, a chance BGM, and a confirmed BGM as modes of the game state notice.

  The basic circuit 402 of the first sub-control unit 400 determines the state of the game state notice based on the game state notice lottery table, the special symbol stop symbol, and the acquired random value (0 to 99 in this example). The game state notice lottery to be performed.

  For example, when the special symbol stop symbol is suddenly probabilistic (special diagram D or special diagram e), if the random number is a value from 0 to 97, normal BGM is selected as the game state notice mode. When the random value is a numerical value of 98 to 99, the confirmed BGM is selected as the game state notice mode. In addition, when the stop pattern of the special figure is hidden probability change (special figure E) or small hit (special figure F, special figure G, special figure f, special figure g), the random number is a numerical value of 0-97. In some cases, the normal BGM is selected as the game state notice mode, and when the random number is a numerical value of 98 to 99, the chance BGM is selected as the game state notice mode.

  In addition, when the stop symbol of the special figure is a challenge gate target big hit (probable change) (special figure b or special figure c), and the symbol combination is a combination of three same-numbered decorative symbols, the random value is 0-79. In the case of a numerical value of, a normal BGM is selected as the state of the gaming state notice, and when the random number value is a value of 80 to 94, the chance BGM is selected as the aspect of the gaming state notice and the random number value is 95. When the value is -99, the confirmed BGM is selected as the game state notice mode. In addition, when the stop pattern of the special figure is a challenge gate target jackpot (probable change) (special figure b or special figure c) and is a combination of three symbols with the same odd number of decorative symbols, regardless of the random number value Then, the confirmed BGM is selected as the game state notice mode.

In addition, when the stop symbol of the special figure is a challenge gate target big hit (non-probable change) (special figure d), when the random value is a numerical value of 0 to 94, the normal BGM is used as the aspect of the game state notice. When the random number value is a numerical value of 95 to 99, chance BGM is selected as the game state notice mode.
<Renso resort number notice lottery table>

  FIG. 18A shows an example of the lotus number notice lottery table, and the lotus number notice lottery table associates the number of lotuses, lottery value data, and the form of lotus number notice. Has been remembered. In this example, there are no notices, a notice effect using the character D, a notice effect using the character E, and a notice effect using the character F as modes of the consecutive resort count notice. Moreover, although the figure shows only the case where the number of consecutive resorts is 5, 10, 15 times, the predetermined number of times every 5 times (20 times, 25 times,...) After 15 times. The lottery value data is associated up to (in this example, 200 times).

  The basic circuit 402 of the first sub-control unit 400 determines the mode of the number of consecutive resorts based on the number of consecutive resorts notice lottery table, the number of consecutive resorts, and the acquired random value (0 to 99 in this example). A lottery notice lottery will be held.

For example, when the number of consecutive resorts is five, when the random number is a numerical value of 0 to 49, no notification is selected as the aspect of the number of consecutive resorts, and the random number is a numerical value of 50 to 99. In this case, the notice effect using the character D is selected as the mode of the notice of the number of consecutive days. In addition, when the number of consecutive resorts is 10, when the random number is a numerical value of 0 to 49, no notification is selected as an aspect of the continuous resort number notification, and the random number is a numerical value of 50 to 99. In such a case, a notice effect using the character E is selected as a mode for notifying the number of consecutive days. In addition, when the number of consecutive resorts is 10, when the random number is a numerical value of 0 to 49, no notification is selected as an aspect of the continuous resort number notification, and the random number is a numerical value of 50 to 99. In such a case, a notice effect using the character F is selected as the mode of notifying the number of consecutive resorts.
<Virtual total winning ball number notice lottery table>

  FIG. 18B shows an example of the virtual total acquired ball number notice lottery table. The virtual total acquired ball number notice lottery table includes a stop symbol of FIG. 2, lottery value data, and virtual total number. A mode for notifying the number of acquired balls is stored in association with each other. In this example, there are no notice, a character display of “This big hit is over 10000!”, And a character display of “Aim at 10,000 on this big hit!” As a mode of virtual total acquired ball number notice. In addition, in the same figure, only the production in the case where the total number of acquired balls is 10,000 is illustrated, but the production is performed every 10,000 (20,000, 30000,...) After 10,000. You may comprise.

  The basic circuit 402 of the first sub-control unit 400 obtains the virtual total acquisition based on the virtual total acquisition ball number notice lottery table, the stop symbol of FIG. 2 and the acquired random number value (0 to 99 in this example). A virtual total acquisition ball number notice lottery that determines the mode of ball number notice is performed.

  For example, if the stop symbol of Special Figure 2 is a 16R special jackpot (Special Figure a), and if the random number is a value between 0 and 79, select No Notice as the virtual total acquired ball number notice mode. When the random value is a numerical value of 80 to 99, the character display of “This jackpot is over 10,000!” Is selected as the virtual total acquired ball number notice mode.

  Also, when the stop symbol of Special Figure 2 is a challenge gate target jackpot (Special Figure b, Special Figure c, Special Figure d), when the random number is a numerical value of 0 to 79, the virtual total number of balls to be announced When no notice is selected and the random number is a numerical value of 80 to 99, a character display of “Aim for 10,000 at this jackpot!” Is selected as an aspect of the virtual total acquired ball number notice.

In addition, when the stop symbol of Special Figure 2 is a 16R special jackpot (Special Figure a), the actual total number of acquired balls is very likely to exceed 10,000. It is configured to select the character display of “This jackpot is over 10000!”, And when the stop symbol of Special Figure 2 is the target gate target jackpot (Special Figure b, Special Figure c, Special Figure d) Since the total number of acquired balls may not exceed 10,000, a character display of “Aim at 10,000 with this big hit!” Is selected as an aspect of the virtual total acquired number of balls notification.
<Looking-out notice lottery table at start-up prize>

  FIG. 19 (a) shows an example of the start winning pre-reading notice lottery table. The starting win pre-reading notice lottery table includes a special display variable display time, lottery value data, pre-start winning pre-reading. A notice mode is associated and stored. In this example, there are normal hold (white circle), hold A (savohani character image), hold B (bancho character image), and hold C (panda character image) as modes for the pre-reading notice at the time of starting winning a prize. In the hold B, a special sound (effect sound called “Kean”) is output from the speaker 120 at the timing of icon display.

  The basic circuit 402 of the first sub-control unit 400 is configured to receive a start winning prize when a predetermined ball detection sensor detects a ball entering the first special figure starting port 230 (or the second special figure starting port 232). Based on the pre-reading notice lottery table, the variable display time of the special figure, and the acquired random number value (0 to 99 in this example), the starting prize pre-reading notice lottery for determining the mode of the pre-reading notice at the start winning prize is performed.

For example, when the fluctuation display time of the special figure is 1500 ms, 3000 ms, or 8000 ms, the normal hold is selected as the pre-reading advance notice mode at the start prize regardless of the random value. In addition, when the fluctuation display time of the special figure is 40000 ms, when the random value is a numerical value of 0 to 89, the normal holding is selected as the pre-reading advance notice at the start winning prize, and the random value is 90 to 97 When the number is a numerical value, the hold A is selected as the pre-reading advance notice mode at the start winning prize, and when the random number is a numerical value of 98 to 99, the hold B is selected as the start pre-reading notice form at the start winning prize.
<Change notice lottery table>

  FIG. 19B shows an example of the changing notice lottery table. In this changing notice lottery table, the fluctuation display time of the special figure, the lottery value data, and the changing notice form are associated with each other. Has been remembered. In this example, there are no notice, a notice A (a character image of a spear), a notice B (a character image of a bancho in a normal state), and a notice C (a character image of a bancho in a special state) as modes of a notice during change. In the notice B, a special sound (sound effect called “Kean”) is output from the speaker 120 at the timing of icon display, and in the notice C, a special sound (sound effect called “Keen Keen”) is output from the speaker 120 at the timing of icon display. Output.

  The basic circuit 402 of the first sub-control unit 400 uses this during-change notice lottery table when a predetermined condition is satisfied after the start of the special figure change (for example, when a predetermined time has elapsed after the start of the special figure change). Based on the fluctuation display time of the special figure and the obtained random number value (0 to 99 in this example), the floating notice lottery for determining the changing notice mode is performed.

For example, when the fluctuation display time of the special figure is 1500 ms, 3000 ms, or 8000 ms, “no notice” is selected as the notice form during change regardless of the random number value. In addition, when the fluctuation display time of the special figure is 40000 ms, when the random number is a numerical value of 0 to 84, “no notice” is selected as the mode of notice of fluctuation, and the random value is a numerical value of 85 to 94 In some cases, notice A is selected as the changing notice form, and when the random number is a numerical value of 95 to 99, notice B is selected as the changing notice form.
<Processing of First Sub-Control Unit 400>

  Next, processing of the first sub control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5A is a flowchart of main processing executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400. FIG. 5B is a flowchart of command reception interrupt processing of the first sub control unit 400. FIG. 5C is a flowchart of the timer interrupt process of the first sub control unit 400. FIG. 4D is a flowchart of the image control process of the first sub control unit 400.

  First, in step S501 in FIG. 9A, various initial settings are performed. When the power is turned on, an initialization process is first executed in step S501. In this initialization processing, initialization of input / output ports, initialization processing of a storage area in the RAM 408, and the like are performed. In step S503, it is determined whether or not the timer variable is 10 or more. This process is repeated until the timer variable becomes 10, and when the timer variable becomes 10 or more, the process proceeds to step S505. In step S505, 0 is substituted into the timer variable.

  In step S507, command processing is performed. The CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400 determines whether a command has been received from the main control unit 300. In step S509, an effect control process is performed. Although details will be described later, in this effect control process, for example, when there is a new command in step S507, the effect data corresponding to this command is read from the ROM 406 and the effect data needs to be updated. In such a case, the effect data is updated.

  If it is detected in step S511 that the chance button has been pressed, the effect data updated in step S509 is changed to effect data corresponding to the press of the chance button. In step S513, if there is a command to VDP 434 in the effect data read in step S509, this command is output to VDP 434 (details will be described later).

  In step S515, if there is a command to the sound source IC 416 in the effect data read in step S509, this command is output to the sound source IC 416. In step S517, if there is a command to various lamps 418 in the effect data read in step S509, this command is output to the drive circuit 420.

  In step S519, if there is a command to the shielding device 246 in the effect data read in step S509, this command is output to the drive circuit 432. In step S521, if there is a control command to be transmitted to the second sub control unit 500 in the effect data read in step S509, the control command is set to be output, and the process returns to step S503.

  Next, the command reception interrupt process of the first sub-control unit 400 will be described using FIG. This command reception interrupt process is a process executed when the first sub-control unit 400 detects a strobe signal output from the main control unit 300. In step S601 of the command reception interrupt process, the command output from the main control unit 300 is stored as an unprocessed command in a command storage area provided in the RAM 408.

  Next, the first sub control unit timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. The first sub-control unit 400 includes a hardware timer that generates a timer interrupt at a predetermined cycle (in this embodiment, once every 2 ms), and the timer interrupt process is performed by using the timer interrupt as a trigger. Execute in the cycle.

  In step S701 of the first sub-control unit timer interrupt process, 1 is added to the value of the timer variable storage area of the RAM 408 described in step S503 in the first sub-control unit main process, and the result is stored in the original timer variable storage area. To do. Therefore, in step S503, the value of the timer variable is determined to be 10 or more every 20 ms (2 ms × 10).

  In step S703 of the first sub-control unit timer interrupt process, transmission of a control command to the second sub-control unit 500 set in step S519, an effect random number update process, and the like are performed.

  Next, the image control process in step S513 in the main process of the first sub-control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the flow of image control processing.

  In step S801, an instruction to transfer image data is issued. Here, the CPU 404 first swaps the designation of the display areas A and B in the VRAM 436. As a result, an image of one frame stored in the display area not designated as the drawing area is displayed on the decorative design display device 208. Next, the CPU 404 sets ROM coordinates (transfer source address of the ROM 406), VRAM coordinates (transfer destination address of the VRAM 436) and the like in the attribute register of the VDP 434 based on the position information table and the like, and then the image from the ROM 406 to the VRAM 436. Set an instruction to start data transfer. The VDP 434 transfers the image data from the ROM 406 to the VRAM 436 based on the command set in the attribute register. Thereafter, the VDP 436 outputs a transfer end interrupt signal to the CPU 404.

  In step S803, it is determined whether or not a transfer end interrupt signal is input from the VDP 434. If a transfer end interrupt signal is input, the process proceeds to step S605. If not, a transfer end interrupt signal is input. Wait for it. In step S605, parameters are set based on the production scenario configuration table and attribute data. Here, in order to form a display image in the display area A or B of the VRAM 436 based on the image data transferred to the VRAM 436 in step S601, the CPU 404 has information on the image data constituting the display image (coordinate axis and image size of the VRAM 436). , VRAM coordinates (arrangement coordinates, etc.) are instructed to the VDP 434. The VDP 434 sets parameters according to attributes based on instructions stored in the attribute register.

  In step S807, a drawing instruction is performed. In this drawing instruction, the CPU 404 instructs the VDP 434 to start drawing an image. The VDP 434 starts drawing an image in the frame buffer in accordance with an instruction from the CPU 404.

In step S809, it is determined whether or not the generation end interrupt signal from the VDP 434 based on the end of image drawing is input. If the generation end interrupt signal is input, the process proceeds to step S611. If not, the generation end interrupt signal is determined. Wait for input. In step S611, a scene display counter that is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 408 and counts how many scene images have been generated is incremented (+1), and the process ends.
<Attacker pre-announcement decision process>

  Next, with reference to FIG. 21, the pre-attacker release notice determination process executed in the effect control process (step S509) in the first sub control unit main process described above will be described. This figure is a flowchart showing the flow of the pre-attack release notice determination process.

  In step S1001, when a symbol variation start command is received from the main control unit 300, it is determined whether or not the special symbol stop symbol included in the command is the special symbol 2 stop symbol. As a result of the determination, if the special symbol stop symbol is the special symbol 2 stop symbol, the process proceeds to step S1003. If the special symbol stop symbol is not the special symbol 2 stop symbol (in the case of the special symbol 1 stop symbol). ) Proceeds to step S1002.

  In step S1002, it is determined whether or not the stop symbol of special figure 1 is any of special figure D, special figure E, special figure F, or special figure G. If not, the process is terminated. In step S1009, the game state notice lottery proceeds. In step S1003, it is determined whether the stop symbol of special figure 2 is any of special figure a, special figure b, special figure c, or special figure d. If not, the process proceeds to step S1004. Then, the process proceeds to step S1005. In step S1004, it is determined whether or not the stop symbol of special figure 2 is any of special figure e, special figure f, or special figure g. If not, the process is terminated, and if applicable, step S1009. Proceed to the game state notice lottery.

  In step S1005, a total acquisition information lottery process (details will be described later) is executed. In the next step S1006, it is determined whether or not there is a special figure 2 variable game on hold. Proceed to the advance notice lottery, and if there is no hold, proceed to step S1008. In step S1008, the combination of symbols in which three same-numbered decorative symbols are arranged in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c (for example, “decoration 2-decoration 2-decoration 2”, “decoration 0-decoration 0-decoration 0”, etc.) is stopped. It is determined whether or not to display, and if applicable, the process proceeds to a gaming state notice lottery in step S1009, and if not, the process proceeds to step S1007.

  In step S1007, a pending notice lottery is performed. In the on-hold notice lottery, as described above, the on-hold notice lottery table shown in FIG. 17A and the stop pattern of the special figure 2 stored in the prefetch results 1 to 4 in the special figure 2 prefetch information storage area. Based on the acquired random number value (0 to 99 in this example), the mode of the notice in suspension (in this example, no notice, notice effect using character A, notice effect using character B, character C Any of the used notice effects is selected, and the effect is executed based on the selected mode.

In step S1009, a game state notice lottery is performed. In this game state advance notice lottery, as described above, based on the game state advance notice lottery table shown in FIG. 17B, a special figure stop symbol, and the obtained random number value (0 to 99 in this example), A mode of state notice (in this example, any of normal BGM, chance BGM, and confirmed BGM) is selected, and an effect is executed based on the selected mode.
<Total acquisition information lottery processing>

  Next, the total acquisition information lottery process (step S1005) in the above-described pre-attacker release notice determination process will be described with reference to FIG. In addition, the figure is a flowchart which shows the flow of a total acquisition information lottery process.

  In step S1101, the number of consecutive resorts (in this example, the number of times any one of special figure a, special figure b, special figure c, and special figure d is continuously selected as the stop pattern of special figure 2) is 5. It is determined whether it is a multiple. As a result of the determination, if applicable, the process proceeds to step S1102, and a lottery number notice lottery is performed. If not, the process proceeds to step S1103 without performing the lotus number notice lottery.

  In the consecutive resort number notice lottery in step S1102, as described above, based on the consecutive resort number notice lottery table shown in FIG. 18A, the number of consecutive resorts, and the acquired random number value (0 to 99 in this example). , Select a mode of the number of consecutive resorts (in this example, no notification, a notification effect using the character D, a notification effect using the character E, a notification effect using the character F), and an effect based on the selected mode Execute.

  In step S1103, it is determined whether or not the stop symbol of special figure 2 is special figure a. If applicable, the process proceeds to step S1104, and if not, the process proceeds to step S1105. In step S1104, the virtual total acquired number of balls stored in the RAM 408 is 2400 (= 15 (the number of winning balls for one winning of the variable winning opening 234) × 10 (the winning of the variable winning opening 234 per round). (The number of balls) × 16 times (the number of rounds of the special figure a)) is added to step S1106. In step S1105, 1350 is added to the total virtual number of balls stored in the RAM 408, and then the process goes to step S1106.

  In step S1106, it is determined whether or not the virtual total acquired number of balls after the addition in step S1104 (or step S1105) is larger than 10,000, and if applicable, the process proceeds to step S1107 and the virtual total acquired number of balls preliminary notice lottery is performed. If not applicable, the process is terminated without performing the virtual total acquisition ball number notice lottery.

As described above, the virtual total acquired ball number notice lottery performed in step S1107 is the virtual total acquired ball number notice lottery table shown in FIG. 18 (b), the stop symbol shown in FIG. In this example, the virtual total gained ball number notice mode (in this example, there is no notice, a character display of “This big hit is over 10,000!”, A character display of “Aim at 10,000 on this big hit!”) Any one of these) is selected, and an effect is executed based on the selected mode.

It is informed that the result of the determination of whether or not the special figure 2 variable game corresponding to the icon PI23 is a special figure b (a jackpot symbol for the challenge gate).
<Operation of challenge gate>

  FIGS. 27 (p) to 28 (c) are diagrams showing an example of effects when the challenge gate 270 is activated.

  Here, at the timing shown in FIG. 27 (p), a display suggesting that the description of the challenge gate 270 is started (in this example, a character display “description of challenge gate”) is performed. In addition, at the timing shown in FIG. 27 (q), a round number suggestion display indicating the number of rounds of the jackpot game selected when the ball passes the first challenge gate region (in this example, “in the left gate passing” 2R or 16R. “Let's aim big game”), the timing shown in FIG. 27 (r) suggests the number of rounds of jackpot game to be selected when the ball passes the challenge gate second area Round number suggestion display (in this example, “Right gate passing 8R or 12R. It is a safety measure” character display).

  In addition, the first sub-control unit 400 determines that the stop symbol is special figure 2 in the above-described pre-attacker release notice determination process (see FIG. 21) (determined as YES in the determination process in step S1001), and It is determined that the stop symbol of the figure is special figure b (YES is determined in the determination process of step S1003), it is determined that special figure 2 is on hold (YES is determined in the determination process of step S1006), and is within the hold A preliminary lottery is running. As a result of the on-hold notice lottery, in this example, as a notice form on hold, the character C (notice effect using the number 9 is performed and the speaker is used during the period shown in FIGS. 27 (r) to 28 (d). 120 outputs a special sound (sound effect “Kean”).

  As described above, when a notice using character C (including the output of a special sound) is made, 16R special jackpot (special figure a) is added to the stop pattern of special figure 2 stored in the prefetch results 1 to 4. ), Since it is determined that there are two or more of the big hits (Special figure b, Special figure c, Special figure d) for the challenge gate, There are cases where it can be increased.

  The timing shown in FIG. 28A is a state in which the operation of the electric switching valve 270h of the challenge gate 270 is started to start the effective period of the charge gate 270, and the electric switching valve 270h is tilted to the right as viewed from the front. In this state, the ball that has entered the challenge gate 270 is prevented from entering the right sphere passage 270e (second region) and passes through the left sphere passage sensor 270f (first region). For this reason, at the same timing, the first sub-control unit 400 may synchronize with the state of the challenge gate 270, and the ball that has entered the challenge gate 270 may pass through the left sphere passage sensor 270f (first region). A display that suggests a high price (in this example, the display of the letters "Aim right by hitting. Now I will enter the left.").

  The subsequent timing shown in FIG. 28B is a state in which the electric switching valve 270h is tilted to the left as viewed from the front during the operation of the electric switching valve 270h of the challenge gate 270. In this state, the ball that has entered the ball entrance 270a of the challenge gate 270 is prevented from entering the left-side ball passage 270d (first region) and passes through the right-side ball passage sensor 270g (second region). For this reason, at the same timing, the first sub-control unit 400 may synchronize with the state of the challenge gate 270, and the ball that has entered the challenge gate 270 may pass through the right sphere passage sensor 270g (second region). Display that suggests that it is expensive (in this example, the display of the letters “Aim right by hitting. Now I ’ll enter the right.”).

  The timing shown in FIG. 28C is a state in which the electric switching valve 270h is tilted to the right when viewed from the front during the operation of the electric switching valve 270h of the challenge gate 270. is there. The first sub-control unit 400 repeatedly executes the display of FIGS. 28A and 28B in synchronization with the state of the challenge gate 270 until a ball enters the challenge gate 270.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 28 (d), the ball that has entered the challenge gate 270 at the timing shown in FIG. 28 (c) passes the left sphere passing sensor 270f (first region) and the number of rounds is determined. When 16R is selected as the number of rounds of the jackpot game by lottery, round notification (in this example, “16R!” Is displayed) indicating the number of rounds is performed.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 28 (e), the opening / closing control of the variable winning opening 234 is started in the big hit game (16R), and the door member 234a of the variable winning opening 234 is moved at a predetermined time interval (for example, an opening time of 29 seconds, It is controlled to open and close 16 times with a closing time of 1.5 seconds. In this example, the operation of the electric switching valve 270h of the challenge gate 270 is continued even during the opening / closing control of the variable prize opening 234.

  The ball that entered the challenge gate 270 passes through either the left sphere passage sensor 270f (first region) or the right sphere passage sensor 270g (second region) depending on the state of the electric switching valve 270h, but is variable. Since the winning opening 234 is disposed below the challenge gate 270, any ball passing through either the left sphere passing sensor 270f (first area) or the right sphere passing sensor 270g (second area) If the door member 234a is in an open state, it is possible to enter the variable winning opening 234.

  Further, in this example, during the jackpot game, the total number of winning balls (number of winning balls) from a predetermined timing (for example, the start time of the first jackpot game) is displayed. For example, FIG. At the timing shown in FIG. 28 (e), the fact that the total number of acquired balls is 15 is displayed in the first round of the jackpot game (in this example, the letter “15get” is displayed). At the timing shown, a display indicating that the total number of acquired balls is 30 is displayed in the first round of the jackpot game (in this example, a character “30 get” is displayed).

  Also, at the timing shown in FIG. 28 (g), in the 10th round of the jackpot game, a display indicating that the total number of acquired balls is 1365 (in this example, the display of the characters “1365get”) is performed. At the timing shown in (i), a display indicating that the total number of acquired balls is 1420 (in this example, the display of the characters “1420get”) is performed in the tenth round of the jackpot game.

  Furthermore, in this example, at the timing shown in FIG. 28 (h) to FIG. 28 (i) during the big hit game, the holding consecutive resort announcement using the movable body (in this example, the left door 246a and the right door of the shielding device 246). After closing 246b, notification is performed by displaying the characters “pending consecutive resort confirmed!”.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 28 (j), the 16R jackpot game is finished, and at the timing shown in FIG. 28 (k), it is determined that the success / failure determination result of the next special figure variable game is a jackpot. For this reason, a notification that prompts the player to make a right turn (in this example, the display of the characters “→ continue right-handed →”) and a display that indicates that the gaming state is definitely changed (in this example, “ "Displaying characters in the middle" is performed.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 28 (m), since the notice B corresponding to the super reach A is selected as the notice of changing notice by the notice of changing notice lottery, the character image corresponding to the notice B is displayed as a decorative pattern. While being displayed on the display device 208, a special sound corresponding to the notice B (sound effect “Kean”) is output from the speaker 120. Further, in the subsequent period shown in FIG. 28 (n) to FIG. 28 (o), the special figure variable game is stopped and displayed after the effect corresponding to the super reach A is executed.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 29 (a), a display indicating that the explanation about the challenge gate 270 is started (in this example, a character display “determine destination at the challenge gate”) is performed. In addition, since the same timing is before the big hit game start immediately after the big hit during the electric support, explanation contents are omitted at the same timing compared to the detailed explanation shown in FIG. 27 (p) to FIG. 28 (c). A brief explanation is given.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 29 (d), the ball entering the challenge gate 270 passes the right ball passing sensor 270g (second region) at the timing shown in FIG. 29 (c) and the number of rounds is determined. As a result, 8R is selected as the number of rounds of the jackpot game, so that round notification (in this example, “8R!” Is displayed) indicating the number of rounds is performed.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 29 (e), the opening / closing control of the variable prize opening 234 is started in the jackpot game (8R), and the door member 234a of the variable prize opening 234 is moved at a predetermined time interval (for example, an opening time of 29 seconds, Control is performed to open and close 8 times with a closing time of 1.5 seconds. In this example, the operation of the electric switching valve 270h of the challenge gate 270 is continued even during the opening / closing control of the variable prize opening 234.

  In this example, the total number of acquired balls is displayed during the big hit game. For example, at the timing shown in FIG. 29E, the total number of acquired balls is 2415 in the first round of the big hit game. A display indicating that the ball is a ball (in this example, the display of the characters “2415get”) is performed, and at the timing shown in FIG. 29F, the total number of balls acquired is 3315 in the first round of the big hit game. Is displayed (in this example, the character “3315get” is displayed).

  Further, in this example, the probability change notification using the movable body (in this example, the left door 246a and the right door 246b of the shielding device 246 are turned on at the timing shown in FIG. 29 (g) to FIG. After closing, an announcement is made by displaying the text “Confirmed change!”.

At the timing shown in FIG. 29 (i), the 8R jackpot game is finished, and at the timing shown in FIG. 29 (o), it is determined that the success / failure determination result of the next special figure variable game is a jackpot. For this reason, a notification that prompts the player to make a right turn (in this example, the display of the characters “→ continue right-handed →”) and a display that indicates that the gaming state is definitely changed (in this example, “ "Displaying characters in the middle" is performed.
<Notice of the total number of acquired balls>

  Next, the virtual total acquired ball number notice will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 30 is a diagram showing an example of the virtual total acquired ball number notice in time series.

  The timing shown in FIG. 30 (a) is a state immediately after the jackpot game ends, and a display indicating that the total number of acquired balls is 8400 (in this example, the display of the characters “8400get”) is performed. . Further, the timing shown in FIG. 30 (b) is a combination of a decoration symbol (decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration) corresponding to the special figure a after the big win is won by the big hit determination and the special figure a is selected by the symbol lottery. 7) is a state in which the stop display is made.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 30 (c), after briefly explaining the challenge gate 270, at the timing shown in FIG. 30 (d), the electric switching valve 270 of the challenge gate 270 is operated, and the challenge gate 270 is activated. The period has started. In this example, the special figure a is won in the previous special figure variation game, and the ball that has entered the challenge gate 270 is the left ball passing sensor 270f (first region) and the right ball passing sensor 270g (second In any case, it is determined that the game is a 16R big hit game. For this reason, at the same timing, the first sub-control unit 400 prompts the player to make a right turn and prompts the player to enter the challenge gate 270 (in this example, the words “Aim right! Anytime! Display).

  The subsequent timing shown in FIG. 30 (e) is a state in which the electric switching valve 270h is inclined to the left in the front view while the electric switching valve 270h of the challenge gate 270 is in operation. As described above, in this example, even if the ball that entered the challenge gate 270 passes through either the left sphere passing sensor 270f (first region) or the right sphere passing sensor 270g (second region), the 16R big hit game It has been confirmed that. For this reason, at the same timing, the first sub-control unit 400 prompts the player to make a right turn and prompts the player to enter the challenge gate 270 and suggests the start of the big hit game (in this example, “right” “Aim! Attacker will be released”.

  In this example, the first sub-control unit 400 determines that the stop symbol is the special symbol a in the total acquisition information lottery process (see FIG. 22) described above (YES in the determination process of step S1103). ), It is determined that the virtual total acquired number of balls has exceeded 10,000 (determined as YES in the determination process in step S1106), and the virtual total acquired number of balls notice lottery is executed. As a result of the virtual total acquired ball number notice lottery, in this example, the character display of “This jackpot is over 10,000!” Is selected as the virtual total acquired ball number notice mode, and FIGS. 30 (e) and 30 (f). Is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 at the timing shown in FIG. In addition, at the timing shown in FIG. 30 (i), since the actual total number of acquired balls has exceeded 10,000 in the eleventh round of the jackpot game, the message “10000 breakthrough!” Is displayed.

Note that the execution time of the virtual total acquired ball number notice is not limited to this example. In a game machine whose length changes, various notices including a virtual total acquired ball number notice may be executed during the round interval. In addition, as will be described below, the virtual total acquired ball number notice may not be executed.
<Example of the virtual total acquisition ball number notice not being executed>

  FIG. 31 is a diagram showing, in chronological order, an example in which the virtual total acquired ball number notice described with reference to FIG. 30 is not executed. Since the states shown in FIGS. 31A and 31B are the same as the states shown in FIGS. 30A and 30B, the drawings after FIG. 32C will be described.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 31 (c), after a brief description of the challenge gate 270, in this example, the first sub-control unit 400 performs the number of consecutive games in the above-described total acquisition information lottery process (see FIG. 22). Is a multiple of 5 (YES is determined in the determination process in step S1101), and the lottery number notice lottery is executed. As a result of the lottery number notice lottery, in this example, the character display “5 consecutive villas rush!” Is selected as the form of the lotus number notice, and at the timing shown in FIG. Is displayed.

  Further, at the timing shown in FIG. 31 (d), the electric switching valve 270h of the challenge gate 270 is actuated, and the effective period of the challenge gate 270 is started. In this example, the special figure a is won in the previous special figure variation game, and the ball that has entered the challenge gate 270 is the left ball passing sensor 270f (first region) and the right ball passing sensor 270g (second In any case, it is determined that the game is a 16R big hit game. For this reason, at the same timing, the first sub-control unit 400 prompts the player to make a right turn and prompts the player to enter the challenge gate 270 (in this example, the words “Aim right! Anytime! Display).

In this example, since the ball that entered the challenge gate 270 before executing the virtual total acquired ball number notice at the same timing has passed the right ball passing sensor 270g (second region), FIG. 31 (f) The round notification (in this example, “16R”) that notifies the number of rounds of the big hit game (16 in this example) at the timing shown in FIG. "!" Is displayed.
<Advance notice during demonstration screen display>

  Next, with reference to FIG. 32, a description will be given of a notice during display of the demonstration screen. FIG. 32 is a diagram showing an example of a notice during display of the demo screen in time series.

  The timing shown in FIG. 32 (a) is a state immediately after the jackpot game is finished, and at the subsequent timing shown in FIG. 32 (b), a display indicating that the gaming state is definitely changed (in this example, “probable change”). In addition to performing “display of the character“ medium ””, the game state has changed to probabilistic, so that the player is prompted to make a right stroke (in this example, the character “→ continue right stroke →” is displayed). 32 (b) is a state in which the game state has shifted to certain change, but there is no special figure variable game hold (hold 0 state).

  Also, at the timing shown in FIG. 32C, the demonstration screen display is started. This demonstration screen display is a display for demonstration such as advertising of a game stand, and when the start condition is satisfied (in this example, when a predetermined time has elapsed since the suspension of the special figure variable game becomes 0). Starts and ends when an end condition is satisfied (in this example, when a ball entering the special figure starting port is detected). Note that the start condition and the end condition of the demonstration screen display are not limited to this example, and the end condition may be, for example, a winning at the usual start opening.

  In this example, the demonstration screen display is started at the timing shown in FIG. 32 (c) and the demonstration screen display is ended at the timing shown in FIG. 32 (f). As shown in (d), a game state announcement (in this example, display of the character image C1 and output of sound effects) is performed to suggest the current game state (in this example, the probability variation state).

In this example, the execution period of the demonstration screen display varies depending on the end condition of the demonstration screen display (in this example, the ball entering the special chart start opening), so the execution period of the demonstration screen display is short. 32C may change from the display shown in FIG. 32C to the display shown in FIG. 32D ′ (the original demonstration screen display in which the display mode of the image of the character C1 ′ is different from the character C1). Yes, there may be no gaming state notice.
<Challenge gate entry notification>

  Next, the challenge gate entry notification will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 33 is a diagram showing an example of a challenge gate entry notification in time series.

  FIG. 33 (a) shows the state before the start of the fluctuation of the special figure, and FIG. 33 (b) starts the fluctuation game of the special figure 1, and the challenge gate 270 is not activated and is outside the valid period of the challenge gate 270. . In this state, since the player does not have the profit obtained by entering the challenge gate 270, when the player enters the challenge gate 270, as shown in FIG. 33 (d), the player goes to the challenge gate 270. FIG. 33 (e) shows the result of making a ball entry notification (in this example, outputting a first sound (error sound called “bububu”) from the speaker 120) that informs that profit cannot be obtained by entering the ball. In this way, a display for prompting the player to make a left strike (in this example, the display of the characters “Please return the handle to the left”) is performed.

  FIG. 33 (g) shows a state in which the challenge gate 270 is activated and the validity period of the challenge gate 270 is started. In this state, since the player has a profit obtained by entering the challenge gate 270, when the player enters the challenge gate 270, as shown in FIG. 33 (h), the player goes to the challenge gate 270. Entry notification (in this example, a second sound (a winning sound called ping pong) is output from the speaker 120) is performed to notify that a profit can be obtained by entering the ball. Note that the first entry after the challenge gate 270 is activated has the benefit of confirming the round of the jackpot game, but the player cannot gain any profit after the second entry before the start of the jackpot game. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 33 (i), the entrance notification is not performed.

FIG. 33 (j) shows a state in which opening / closing control of the variable winning opening 234 is started in the big hit game. In this state, the player has no profit obtained by entering the challenge gate 270, but the player is informed of the entry to the challenge gate 270 (in this example, the third sound from the speaker 120 (Poco). (Winning sound) is output).
<Other examples of advance look-ahead notice at start-up prize>

  Next, with reference to FIG. 34 (a), another example of the pre-reading notice at the start winning prize will be described. FIG. 34 (a) is a diagram showing another example of the pre-reading notice at the time of start winning.

  In FIG. 19 (a), as a mode of the pre-reading notice at the time of starting winning prize, normal hold (white circle), hold A (sabohani character image), hold B (bancho character image + sound effect “Kean”), hold C (Panda character image) was illustrated.

However, the mode of the pre-reading notice at the time of start winning according to the present embodiment is not limited to this, and as shown in FIG. 34 (a), the effect of normal hold (white square), hold A (black square + “po”) Sound), hold B (normally hold white square and hold A black square + sound effect of “Kean” + frame lamp off), hold C (in the middle “letter” is given White square). That is, even if it is a low-reliability notice such as hold A, a sound effect may be output in addition to the display, and all components of normal hold and hold A are included as hold B. It may be a figure. Further, like the hold B, in addition to the display and sound, the lighting mode (lighting, blinking, and extinguishing) of the lamp may be changed (in this example, the frame lamp is turned off).
<Other examples of change notice>

  Next, another example of the change notice will be described with reference to FIGS. FIGS. 34 (b) and 34 (c) are diagrams showing another example of the change notice.

  In FIG. 19 (b), there are no advance notice, advance notice A (a character image of a frog), advance notice B (a character image of a bancho in a normal state + effect sound “Kean”), an advance notice C (special). The character image of the bancho of the state + the sound effect “Kean Keen”) was illustrated.

  However, the variation notice mode according to the present embodiment is not limited to this, and notice A (a character image of a bancho wearing a black fundusi), notice B (a black fundus of notice A and other color fundundi) It may be composed of a character image of a chief wearing a fundus composed of the above + a sound effect of “Kean”) and a notice C (a character image of a chief wearing a fundus with a character of “to”). That is, a display including a part of the components of the hold A, such as the hold B, may be adopted.

In addition, the change notice may be configured with a cut-in display that cuts in (interrupts) during reach production. The image is surrounded by an image), the chance is increased (the image is surrounded by a black belt-shaped image), and the heat is intense (white, black, and other colors are alternately surrounded by a band-shaped image. May be composed of four types of sound effect + “Kein” sound effect) and correct (effect surrounded by the letters “Hou” + sound effect “Kiki Kiki Keen”). In this way, in an accurate notice with the highest degree of expectation, an aspect (sound effect “Kiki Kiki Keen”) that is not included in other notices may be added.
<Application example of change notice>

  Next, an application example of the change notice will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 35 is a diagram showing an example in which a notice display in the same mode as the notice in change is performed in a period other than during the special figure change game.

  FIG. 35A shows a state in which the demonstration screen display is started, and FIGS. 35B to 35D show a state in which button effects are executed during the demonstration screen display. Here, the button effect is an effective time during which an image or character that prompts the player to perform an operation using the operation means, an image that imitates the appearance of the operation means, or an operation by the operation means can be received. It is an effect that displays an image that suggests.

  In this example, during the period shown in FIGS. 35 (b) to 35 (d), images and characters (in this example, “10 consecutive hits” prompting the player to operate with the operating means (in this example, the chance button 136). Display of the characters “breaking!”, An image simulating the appearance of the operation means (in this example, an image simulating the appearance of the chance button 136), or accepting an operation by the operation means A button effect is displayed that displays an image that suggests a possible effective time (in this example, a meter display indicating the effective time of the chance button 136).

  In addition, when the operation by the operation means satisfies a predetermined condition during the execution period of the button effect (in this example, when the number of continuous operations (continuous hits) by the chance button 136 reaches 10 times). As shown in FIG. 35 (f), a notice display in the same manner as the changing notice (notice B) shown in FIG. 34 (b) is performed, but when the condition is not satisfied, FIG. 35 (e) As shown in FIG. 34, the notice display in the same mode as the changing notice (notice A) shown in FIG.

  FIG. 36 is a diagram illustrating an example in which a notice display in the same mode as the notice in change is performed during a period in which a notice other than the notice in change is being executed.

  FIG. 36 (b) to FIG. 36 (f) show a state during the special figure variable game. In this example, the first notice display is executed among the plural kinds of notice displays at the timing shown in FIG. 36 (c) during the special figure variable game, and the plural kinds at the timing shown in FIG. The second notice display is being executed. In addition, at the timing shown in the same figure (e), the third notice display is executed among the plural kinds of notice displays, and the notice in the same mode as the changing notice (notice B) shown in FIG. 34 (b). Display (specific notice display) is performed, and at the timing shown in FIG. 36 (f), the fourth notice display is executed among the plural kinds of notice displays.

  As described above, the third notice display and the specific notice display are performed at the timing shown in FIG. 36E. In this example, at least a part of the specific notice display is changed to the third notice display. By concealing at least a part, at least a part of the specific notice display shown in FIG. 36 (e ′) is made invisible (or difficult to see compared with the case where there is no third notice display). Note that at least a part of the specific notice display is invisible (or difficult to see compared to the case without the third notice display), but since the sound effect “Kean” is output from the speaker 120, The player can recognize the high degree of expectation, and may increase the player's sense of expectation.

  FIG. 37 is a diagram illustrating an example in which a notice display in the same mode as the notice in change is performed during a period in which a notice other than the notice in change is being executed. 37 (a) to FIG. 37 (f) are the same as the display modes shown in FIG. 36 (a) to FIG. (G) The following drawings will be described.

  FIG. 37 (g) shows a state in which the left decorative symbol is stopped and displayed, and FIG. 37 (h) shows a state in which the right decorative symbol is stopped and a combination of decorative symbols corresponding to reach is displayed. In the following period (i) to (l), the reach effect is being executed. In this example, at the timing shown in FIG. 38 (k) during the reach production period, the notice display in the same manner as the cut-in display (correct) shown in FIG. 34 (c) is performed. This cut-in display is displayed in the forefront without being obscured by other notice indications (specific notice indications or first to fourth notice indications). In some cases, the player's sense of expectation can be increased.

  FIG. 38 is a diagram showing another example of cut-in display. The cut-in display is not limited to the example shown in FIG. 37. For example, cut-in display as shown in FIG. 38 may be performed. The display modes shown in FIGS. 38 (h) to (k) are the same as the display modes shown in FIGS. 37 (h) to (k), and the description thereof will be omitted. The drawings (o) and (p) will be described.

  In FIG. 38 (o), at least a part of the above-described specific notice display is covered with at least a part of the cut-in display so that at least a part of the specific notice display is invisible (or there is no cut-in display). The sound effect “Kean”, which is the same as the notice B in FIG. 34B, is output from the speaker 120. According to this example, the specific notice display becomes invisible (or difficult to see compared with the case where there is no cut-in display), but the player has a high expectation by outputting the same sound effect as the notice B. In some cases, the player's sense of expectation can be increased.

  38 (p) is the same as FIG. 38 (o) in that at least a part of the specific notice display is covered with at least a part of the cut-in display, but the sound output from the speaker 120 is “ The sound effect “Kean” has been changed to the sound effect “Keen Keen”. According to this example, the specific notice display becomes invisible (or difficult to see compared with the case where there is no cut-in display), but the player can recognize the high expectation level due to the difference in sound effect. In some cases, the player's expectation can be enhanced.

  As described above, the gaming machine (for example, the pachinko machine 100) according to the present embodiment is a gaming machine provided with production means capable of executing at least a plurality of effects, and at least one of the plurality of effects. One is a first effect (for example, an effect of a pre-reading notice shown in FIGS. 26 (k) to 27 (e)), and at least one of the plurality of effects is a second effect (for example, 26 (m), and the first effect is the first notice (for example, hold B (hold icon) shown in FIG. 26 (k) to FIG. 26 (n)). PI 24) is an effect including at least a first notice, and the first effect is at least a third notice (for example, a notice by a sound effect “Kean” output from the speaker 120 shown in FIG. 26 (k)). The second production is a production including The second presentation (for example, the speaker 120 shown in FIG. 26 (m)) is an effect including at least a second notice (for example, a notice by the notice B shown in FIG. 26 (m)). The first notice is a notice including at least a first type element (banner character, sound effect "Kean"). The gaming machine is characterized in that the second notice is a notice including at least the element of the first type.

  According to the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, it is possible to provide a gaming machine characterized by the production means. In addition, by giving a common notice (third notice) for the first and second effects, it is possible to focus on the characteristics of the first notice and the second notice that are performed together with the common notice. There are cases where it is possible.

  The first effect is an effect that can be started at least during the first period (for example, the period shown in FIGS. 26 (k) to 27 (e)), and the second effect is the second effect. It is an effect that can be started at least in a period (for example, the period shown in FIG. 26 (m)), and the second period may be a period that is at least partially different from the first period.

  The “startable” in the present invention is not limited to the case where it always starts, and may not start. For example, a gaming machine that can “be ready to start” in-flight notice shown in FIG. 19B may have a “no notice” state, and the pre-read notice shown in FIG. In the game machine, it is not necessary to have a function of pre-reading notice for “normal hold”. In addition, the “first period” in the present invention may be a period in which only the first effect is performed, or may be a period in which the first effect and another effect are performed. The same applies to the “second period” in the present invention.

  With such a configuration, even if the performance is performed in a different period, the player may be able to easily inform the player of the degree of expectation by the third notice.

  In addition, at least one of the plurality of effects is a third effect (for example, an effect of pre-reading notice by normal hold shown in FIG. 26 (m)), and at least one of the plurality of effects Is the fourth effect (for example, the effect of the pre-reading notice by normal hold shown in FIG. 26 (m)), and the third effect is an effect that can be started at least during the first period, The fourth effect is an effect that can be started at least during the second period, and the third effect can appear at the timing when the fourth notice (for example, notice B shown in FIG. 26 (m) appears. The third effect is an effect that does not include at least the third notice, and the fourth effect is a fifth notice (for example, FIG. 26 (k)). ) By hold B (hold icon PI24) shown in Notification), the fourth effect is an effect that does not include at least the third notice, and the first effect is an effect that is more likely to lead to a big hit than the third effect. The second effect may be an effect that is more easily connected to a big hit than the fourth effect.

  With such a configuration, it may be possible to easily recognize that the first effect and the second effect can be expected to be a big hit by performing the third notice.

  The third notice is a sound notice, the third effect is an effect that does not include at least a sound notice, and the fourth effect is an effect that does not include at least a sound notice. May be.

  With such a configuration, it may be possible to easily identify whether or not the player can expect a big hit depending on the presence or absence of sound. Note that the third effect may be configured to be more easily connected to the jackpot than the first effect, or the fourth effect may be configured to be more easily connected to the jackpot than the second effect.

  In addition, at least one of the plurality of effects is a fifth effect (for example, the changing notice 2 shown in FIG. 34C), and the fifth effect is at least in the first period. It is an effect that can be started, the fifth effect is an effect that is always tied to a big hit, and the fifth effect is an effect including at least a sixth notice (for example, a notice by a cut-in display), The fifth effect may be an effect that does not include at least the third notice (for example, a notice using sound effects). In addition, the “fifth effect” according to the present invention may include only an effect always associated with the jackpot, or an effect always associated with the jackpot and another effect may be performed.

  With such a configuration, the fifth effect including the premiere (big hit confirmed) notice may be able to give the expectation to the big hit even if the third notice is not performed.

  In addition, at least one of the plurality of effects is a fifth effect, the fifth effect is an effect that can be started at least in the first period, and the fifth effect is a big hit The fifth effect is an effect including at least the sixth notice, and the fifth effect is an effect including at least the third notice (for example, an advance notice using sound effects). There may be.

  With such a configuration, the third notice is included in the fifth performance including the premiere (big hit confirmed) notice, so that when the third notice is made, the expectation for the big hit is greatly increased. There are cases where it is possible. The fifth effect may be configured to include at least another notice different from the third notice. For example, if the other notice is composed of the same kind of notice (sound, lamp, etc.) as the third notice, the predetermined notice may be allowed to appear only in the case of an expected production.

  Further, the first notice is at least a notice by display, the second notice is at least a notice by display, the third notice is at least a sound notice, and the fourth notice is The fifth notice may be at least a notice by display, and the sixth notice may be at least a notice by display.

  Although recent game consoles have a variety of display effects due to the combination of notices, etc., they tend to be complicated. The player may be able to easily recognize that the second effect is an effect that can be expected compared to other effects. Note that the third notice may not be a voice, may be a display, or light emission from a lamp or the like may be in a specific mode. The light emission may be a light emission means of a game board or a frame light emission means. In particular, the frame differs depending on the manufacturer that manufactures the game machine. Therefore, by setting the light emission mode of the light emitting means of the frame to a specific mode, it may be easily recognized that the third notification is expected not only for the model but also for a plurality of models.

  In addition, the gaming table is a pachinko machine, and the third notice is the same even when the length of the execution period of the first notice differs from the length of the execution period of the second notice. The length of the third notice execution period may be the same.

  With such a configuration, there is a case where it is easy to recognize that it is the third notice regardless of the length of the notice that is made in relation. In the above state, the length of the third notice execution period and the number of executions may be changed. For example, a configuration in which the reliability associated with the jackpot may be further changed according to the length of the third notice and the number of executions. Even if the length of the execution period and the number of executions are variable, if the player can recognize that it is the third notice, even if the notice is a little arranged I do not care.

  The first notice is a notice that at least a first type character can appear as the first type element, and the second notice is a first kind element as the first type element. One type of character is a notice that can appear at least, and the fourth notice is a notice that at least a second type of character can appear as a second type of element, and the fifth notice is The third type of element is a notice that at least a third type character can appear, and the second type of character is at least a different type of character from the first type of character, The third type of character may be at least a different type of character from the first type of character.

  With such a configuration, it may be possible for the player to expect the appearance of the first type of character. Note that the first type of character may appear not only for notifying the expectation of jackpot but also for the purpose of notifying that the notice is advantageous to the player.

  Further, the first notice (for example, the normal hold shown in FIG. 34A) is a notice including at least a first color pattern (for example, white) as the first type element, The second notice (for example, the hold C shown in FIG. 34A) is a notice including at least the first color pattern as the first type element, and the fourth notice (for example, FIG. The hold A) shown in a) is a notice including at least a second color pattern (for example, black) as the second type element, and the fifth notice (for example, the hold shown in FIG. 34A). B) is a notice including at least a third color pattern (for example, blue) as a third type element, and the second color pattern is a color pattern different from at least the first color pattern. The third color pattern may be a color pattern different from at least the first color pattern.

  With such a configuration, the expectation level of the notice is common even when the predetermined character does not appear in the first effect or the second effect due to the visual common element due to the color pattern. It may be easily recognized.

  Further, the first notice (for example, notice A shown in FIG. 34B) is a notice including at least the first color pattern in the first part of the fourth type character, and the second notice. (For example, notice B shown in FIG. 34 (b)) is a notice including at least the first color pattern in the second part of the fifth type character, and the fourth notice (for example, The notice C) shown in FIG. 34B is a notice including at least the second color pattern in the first part of the fourth type character, and the fifth notice is the fifth notice. The notice may include at least the second color pattern in the second part of the character of the kind.

  With such a configuration, the color patterns used for some of the multiple types of characters may be difficult to understand depending on the type of character, but it is easy to understand when it is likely to lead to a big hit by the third notice. There are cases where it is possible.

  Further, the effect means may be a means including at least a liquid crystal display means, the effect means may be a means including at least a speaker, and the effect means may be a means including at least a light emitting means.

  In addition, at least one of the specific notices may be configured such that a portion indicating the reliability can be visually recognized regardless of the appearance state of other notices. With such a configuration, there is a case where it is possible to reliably report the reliability of a specific character and color pattern.

  In addition, the gaming machine (for example, the pachinko machine 100) according to the present embodiment is at least controlled to a notice means (for example, the decorative symbol display device 208) capable of executing at least a notice and any one of a plurality of states. And a possible control means (for example, main control unit 300), wherein at least one of the plurality of states is in a first state (for example, FIG. 27 (p) to FIG. 28). (J) in the jackpot game shown in FIG. 28 (e) before the start of the attacker), and at least one of the plurality of states is the second state (for example, FIG. 27 (p) To the state after the start of the attacker shown in FIG. 28 (e) during the jackpot game shown in FIG. 28 (j), and the control means from the first state when the first condition is satisfied.

<< Embodiment B >>

Next, Embodiment B of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. Embodiment B of the present invention shows another form of effect (notice effect) by the decorative symbol display means 208 or the like shown in the above-mentioned embodiment A. Accordingly, the same constituent elements as those in the embodiment A, such as the configuration of the pachinko machine 100, are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.
<Type of design>

  First, the first special symbol display device 212, the second special symbol display device 214, the decorative symbol display device 208, and the normal symbol display device 210 of the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. The types of special maps and ordinary maps that are stopped and displayed will be described. In addition, the figure (a) shows an example of the stop symbol aspect of a special figure.

  The special figure 1 variable game is started on the condition that the first start port sensor detects that the ball has entered the first special figure start port 230, and the ball has entered the second special figure start port 232 The special figure 2 variable game is started on the condition that the second start port sensor has detected. When the special figure 1 variable game is started, the first special symbol display device 212 performs “variable display of special figure 1” by repeating all lighting of seven segments and lighting of one central segment. In addition, when the special figure 2 variable game is started, the second special symbol display device 214 displays “fluctuation display of special figure 2” which repeats lighting of all seven segments and lighting of one central segment. Do. These “variation display of special figure 1” and “variation display of special figure 2” correspond to an example of the symbol fluctuation display according to the present invention. Then, when the variation time determined before the variation start of the special figure 1 (corresponding to the variation time referred to in the present invention) elapses, the first special symbol display device 212 stops and displays the special symbol form of the special figure 1. When the variation time determined before the start of variation 2 (this also corresponds to the variation time according to the present invention) has elapsed, the second special symbol display device 214 stops and displays the stop symbol form of the special diagram 2. Therefore, from the start of “figure display of special figure 1” until the stop symbol form of special figure 1 is stopped, or after the start of “fluctuation display of special figure 2”, the stop symbol form of special figure 2 is displayed. Until stop display corresponds to an example of the symbol variation stop display referred to in the present invention, hereinafter, after the “variable display of special figure 1 or 2” is started, the stop symbol form of special figure 1 or 2 is stopped and displayed. The series of displays up to is referred to as symbol variation stop display. As will be described later, the symbol variation stop display may be continuously performed a plurality of times.

  23A shows 23 types of special figures from “Special figure A” to “Special figure W” as stop symbol forms in the symbol fluctuation stop display, and the white portions in the figure are turned off. The location of the segment to be displayed is shown, and the black portion indicates the location of the segment to be lit.

  “Special Figure A” is a 16-round (16R) special jackpot symbol, and “Special Figure B to Special Figure E” are 16R jackpot symbols, both of which play a 16R jackpot game. In the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment, determination of whether or not a big hit in the special figure variable game is made by lottery of hardware random numbers, and determination of whether or not a special big hit is made by lottery of software random numbers. The difference between the jackpot and the special jackpot is the difference in whether the probability of winning the jackpot is high (special jackpot) or low (jackpot) in the next special figure variation game. Hereinafter, a state having a high probability of winning the jackpot is referred to as a special figure high probability state (or a probability variation state), and a state having a low probability is referred to as a special figure low probability state (a non-probability variation state). In addition, after the special jackpot game ends and after the jackpot game ends, the state shifts to a shorter time state. Although the time reduction will be described in detail later, the state that shifts to the time reduction state is referred to as a normal high probability state, and the state that does not shift to the time reduction state is referred to as a normal low probability state. “Special Figure A”, which is a 16R special jackpot symbol, is a high probability state of special figure high probability, and “Special Figure B to Special Figure E”, which is a 16R jackpot symbol, is a special figure low probability high figure probability state. It is. These “special drawings A to E” are given to the player in comparison with 12R special big hit (or big hit), 8R special big hit (or big hit), 4R special big hit (or big hit), and 2R special big hit, which will be described later. It is a design where the profit amount becomes a relatively large profit amount.

  “Special Figure F to Special Figure G” are 12 round (12R) special jackpot symbols, and “Special Figure H to Special Figure J” are 12R jackpot symbols, both of which play 12R jackpot games. These “Special Figure F to Special Figure J” have a relatively small profit amount for the player as compared to the 16R special jackpot (or jackpot), but the 8R special jackpot (or jackpot) described later. The 4R special jackpot (or big jackpot) is a symbol in which the profit amount given to the player is relatively large compared to the 2R special jackpot.

  “Special Figure K to Special Figure M” is an 8-round (8R) special jackpot symbol, and “Special Figure N to Special Figure O” is an 8R jackpot symbol, both of which play an 8R jackpot game. These “Special Figure K to Special Figure O” have a relatively small profit amount to be given to the player compared to the 16R special jackpot (or jackpot) and 12R special jackpot (or jackpot), but will be described later. This is a design in which the amount of profit given to the player is a relatively large amount of profit compared to the 4R special jackpot (or jackpot) and 2R special jackpot.

  “Special Figure P to Special Figure S” is a 4-round (4R) special jackpot symbol, and “Special Figure T” is a 4R jackpot symbol, both of which play 4R jackpot game. These “special charts P to T” are relatively more profitable to the player than the 16R special jackpot (or jackpot), 12R special jackpot (or jackpot), and 8R special jackpot (or jackpot). Although it is a small profit amount, the profit amount given to the player is a relatively large profit amount compared to the 2R special jackpot described later.

  "Special figure U" is a 2 round (2R) special jackpot symbol, and a 2R jackpot game is played. This “special figure U” has a profit amount given to the player as compared with 16R special big hit (or big hit), 12R special big hit (or big hit), 8R special big hit (or big hit), and 4R special big hit (or big hit). This is a relatively small profit.

  “Special figure V” is the first off-line symbol, and “Special figure W” is the second off-line symbol, 16R special big hit (or big hit), 12R special big hit (or big hit), 8R special big hit (or big hit), The 4R special jackpot (or jackpot) is a symbol in which the profit amount given to the player is relatively small compared to the 2R special jackpot.

  FIG. 39 (b) shows an example of a decorative design. There are 10 types of decoration patterns of the present embodiment: “Decoration 1” to “Decoration 10”. The first start port sensor detects that a ball has won the first special figure start port 230 or the second special view start port 232, that is, the ball has entered the first special view start port 230; or On the condition that the second start port sensor detects that a ball has entered the second special symbol start port 232, the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display of the decorative symbol display device 208 are displayed. Displayed in the order of “decoration 1” → “decoration 2” → “decoration 3” →... “Decoration 9” → “decoration 10” → “decoration 1” →... “Decoration display of decorative pattern” is performed.

  When any of the special jackpots (or jackpots) of 4R, 8R, 12R, and 16R is notified, a symbol combination in which three same decorative symbols are arranged in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c (in this example, the same jackpot) "Decoration 1 -Decoration 1 -Decoration 1", "Decoration 2 -Decoration 2 -Decoration 2", etc.) shown in the figure are stopped and displayed. Further, when notifying 16R special big hit (or big hit), the combination of symbols in which three of the same odd number of decorative symbols are arranged (in this example, “decoration 3-decoration 3-decoration 3”) is stopped and displayed. When the 16R special jackpot is notified, the symbol combination (in this example, “decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7”) in which three of the same odd number of ornamental symbols are arranged is stopped and displayed. When notifying 2R special jackpot, the symbol combination of “decoration 3—decoration 5—decoration 7” is stopped and displayed.

  In other words, in this embodiment, the symbol combination of “decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7” and “decoration 3-decoration 5-decoration 7” has a special jackpot of 16R or a special jackpot of 2R, that is, both are special jackpots. It is a big hit (probability change confirmed). For this reason, when these symbol combinations are displayed in a stopped state, there is no need to worry about whether the game will be probable or non-probable during the big hit game, and the game will be given a margin by concentrating only on gaining profits from the big hit game. Can proceed. In this embodiment, the symbol combination “decoration 3—decoration 3—decoration 3” has a special jackpot (or jackpot) of 16R, that is, the profit amount that the player can obtain in the jackpot game with the largest number of rounds. Indicates the maximum potential. For this reason, when this symbol combination is displayed in a stopped state, there is no need to worry about the profits that can be obtained from the jackpot game. Can proceed.

  On the other hand, when notifying the first deviation of “Special Figure V” and the second deviation of “Special Figure W”, the symbol combinations other than the symbol combinations shown in FIG. 5B are stopped in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. indicate.

  FIG. 39C shows an example of a usual stop display symbol. In the present embodiment, there are two types of stoppage display modes for ordinary diagrams: “general diagram A”, which is a winning symbol, and “general diagram B”, which is a missed symbol. Based on the fact that the above-mentioned gate sensor has detected that a sphere has passed through the general-purpose start opening 228, the normal symbol display device 210 repeats all lighting of the seven segments and lighting of the central one segment. Perform a “normal change display”. Then, when notifying the winning of the common figure variable game, the “normal figure A” is stopped and displayed, and when notifying the deviation of the common figure variable game, the “normal figure B” is stopped and displayed. Also in FIG. 6C, the white portions in the figure indicate the locations of the segments that are turned off, and the black portions indicate the locations of the segments that are turned on.

  FIG. 40 is a diagram showing an outline of a notice (effect) of the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5A, for example, in the period (first period) after the big hit symbol is fixedly displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208, the explanation display (here, the player is right-handed). As a right-handed notification that prompts the user, “Let right-handed” is displayed, and during the display, a pre-reading notice (here, a notice by displaying characters of a family crest mark and a reserved family resort) is executed. In this case, the explanation display is displayed so as not to be hidden in the pre-reading notice.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 5B, in the present embodiment, for example, in the period (first period) after the big hit symbol is fixedly displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208, an explanation display (here, round vibration is used). An image imitating the challenge gate 207 and the text “16Ror4R if you enter the left” are displayed as an explanation of the shared object (challenge gate 207), and a round as a notice suggesting the number of rounds of the big hit game during the display Number suggestion display (in this case, an image of the character “Bangchou” being broken and a notice by displaying “MAX round confirmation”) is executed. In this case, it is displayed so as not to hide the round number suggestion display and the explanation display.

According to such a configuration, it is possible to enhance the interest of the player with the notice effect without wasting a period during which the explanation display is performed. This will be specifically described below.

The opening effect of the jackpot game is executed at the timing shown in FIG. 24 (b), which is the period after the jackpot symbol is fixedly displayed, and here, a right-handed notification is performed. Here, the right-handed notification is a notification (explanation display) that prompts the player to make a right-handed strike. In this example, a character display of “right-handed ⇒” and a display imitating a part of the game area 124 (here Now, a display imitating the first special figure starting port 230 and the variable prize opening 234 provided in the game area 124, and a state where the game ball flowing down those right areas of the game area 124 wins the variable prize opening 234. Display).

  FIG. 42B 'is another display example of the opening effect. As shown in the drawing, during the opening effect, that is, during the period in which the right-handed notification is displayed, a round notice effect that notifies the number of rounds of the big hit game may be executed. In this example, the image of the character “bancho” whose clothes are torn is displayed at a position that does not overlap with the explanation display (area where the explanation display is not hidden in the display area of the round notice). The number is “8R or more” (the result of the determination of whether or not the special figure 1 variable game is successful is “special figure A” (16R special big hit symbol)).

  Thus, in the present embodiment, when a notice (here, a round notice) is displayed during the explanation display display period, the explanation display is displayed so as not to be hidden by the round notice. That is, when the contents of the explanation display and the round notice are different as shown in the figure, the round notice was given by displaying the explanation display and the “display area” of the round notice so that they do not overlap each other. Even in this case, the right-hand notification (description display) is visible to the player.

  Here, the “display area” of the explanation display means a character (including symbols) or an image portion of the explanation display, but is a predetermined shape such as a rectangular shape secured for displaying the explanation display character or image. It may be an area of pixels (pixels) in the range. The same applies to the “display area” of the round notice.

  FIG. 42 (b ″) shows another display example of the round notice (round notification) during the opening effect. In this example, the number of rounds of the big hit game is notified by changing the display mode of the explanation display of the right-handed notification shown in FIG. That is, when the explanation display of the right-handed notification in FIG. 5B is displayed in black characters, for example, the display content is maintained and the display color is displayed in a color different from the black characters (for example, “right-handed⇒ ”Is displayed in a different color for each character), the number of rounds of the jackpot game is determined to be“ 16R ”(special figure 1 variable game winning / failing determination result is“ special figure A ”(16R special jackpot symbol) ).

  In the following description, as shown in FIG. 5B ″, displaying a character display such as an explanatory display in a different color for each character may be referred to as “multicolor display”.

  In this case, the display content (right-handed notification) is maintained only by changing the display color of the explanation display. That is, the display area of the explanation display and the notice (here round notice) overlaps, but due to the change in the display color, the right notice (description display) is not hidden by the round notice, and even when the round notice is given The display is visible to the player.

Further, when the combination of the first sub-control unit 400 and the second sub-control unit 500 is regarded as sub-control means, in the pachinko machine 100 described here, the main control unit 300 and sub-control means (first sub-control) Unit 400 and second sub-control unit 500) are provided on separate boards, and the boards are directly connected by electric signal lines, but the electric signals between these boards are further connected by another relay board. The transmission / reception may be relayed.
<Main control unit>
First, the main control unit 300 of the pachinko machine 100 will be described.

  The main control unit 300 includes a basic circuit 302 that controls the entire main control unit 300. The basic circuit 302 includes a CPU 304, a ROM 306 for storing control programs and various data, and temporary data. RAM 308 for storing data, I / O 310 for controlling input / output of various devices, a counter timer 312 for measuring time and frequency, and a WDT 314 for monitoring abnormalities in program processing Yes. Note that other storage devices may be used for the ROM 306 and the RAM 308. In addition, various data representing predetermined information and the like are stored in the ROM 306 for each address, and when referred to as a table in the following description, a condition for determining which address in the ROM 306 is designated is displayed in a table format. May refer to a summary. The same applies to the first sub-control unit 400 and the second sub-control unit 500 described later. The CPU 304 of the basic circuit 302 operates by inputting a clock signal of a predetermined period output from the crystal oscillator 316b as a system clock.

  The basic circuit 302 also includes a random value generation circuit 318 for deriving a numerical value in the range of 0 to 65535 each time a clock signal output from the crystal oscillator 316a is received (this circuit includes three random value generation circuits). 51), the main body open sensor 1041, the front frame door sensor 1061, the door sensor with ball storage tray 1082, and the lower tray 128 shown in FIG.

Drive circuit 324, drive circuit 326 for performing display control of the universal map display device 210, and various status display units 328 (for example, the universal map hold lamp 216, the first special figure hold lamp 218, the second special figure hold) The driving circuit 330 for performing display control of the lamp 220, the high-accuracy lamp 222, and the like, and the second special figure starting port 232, the first variable winning port 234, the second variable winning port 235, and the like. It connects the drive circuit 334 for controlling the seed solenoid 332.

  The main control unit 300 is a game control unit that performs game control, and includes a success / failure determination unit, a start information prefetching unit, and a prior determination unit, which will be described later.

  The random value generation circuit 318 generates a random value used in the basic circuit 302. Random number generation in the random value generation circuit 318 can be broadly divided into two types of methods: counter mode and random number mode. In the counter mode, a numerical value that is counted up (down) at a predetermined time interval is acquired, and the numerical value is derived as a random number. There are two more methods in the random number mode. The first method in the random number mode performs an operation using a predetermined function (for example, a modulus function) using a seed of random numbers, and derives the operation result as a random number. In the second method, a numerical value is read from a random number table in which numerical values in the range of 0 to 65535 are randomly arranged, and the read numerical value is derived as a random number. The random value generation circuit 318 acquires an irregular value using white noise superimposed on a signal input from the various sensors 320 to the sensor circuit 322. The random value generation circuit 318 uses the acquired value as an initial value of a counter that counts up (down) in the counter mode, uses it as a seed of random numbers, or determines a read start position of the random number table. .

  When the sphere detection sensor among the various sensors 320 detects that the sphere has won the first special figure starting port 230, the sensor circuit 322 sends a signal indicating that the sphere has been detected to a random value generation circuit. Output to 318. The random value generation circuit 318 that has received this signal latches the value at that timing of the random value generation circuit corresponding to the first special figure starting port 230, and the latched value is incorporated in the random value generation circuit 318. It is stored in a random value storage register corresponding to the first special figure starting port 230. Similarly, when the random value generation circuit 318 receives a signal indicating that a ball has won the second special figure starting port 232, the timing of the random value generation circuit corresponding to the second special figure starting port 232 is also the same. Is latched, and the latched value is stored in a random value storage register corresponding to the second special figure starting port 232 incorporated in the random value generation circuit 318. Further, when the random number generation circuit 318 receives a signal indicating that the ball has won the universal start port 228, the random value generation circuit 318 latches the value at the timing of the random value generation circuit corresponding to the general start port 228. Then, the latched value is stored in a random value storage register corresponding to the normal start port 228 built in the random value generation circuit 318.

  Further, as the ball detection sensor referred to in this specification, specifically, the general winning opening 226, the first special figure starting opening 230, the second special figure starting opening 232, the first variable winning opening 234, the second Examples include a sensor that detects a sphere that has won a predetermined winning opening, such as the variable winning opening 235, and a sensor that detects a sphere that passes through the normal start opening 228.

  Further, an information output circuit 336 is connected to the basic circuit 302, and the main control unit 300 is connected to an information input circuit 350 included in an external hall computer (not shown) via the information output circuit 336. The game information of the machine 100 (for example, information indicating the control state) is output.

  In addition, the main control unit 300 is provided with a voltage monitoring circuit 338 that monitors the voltage value of the power source supplied from the power management unit 660 to the main control unit 300. The voltage monitoring circuit 338 is a voltage value of the power source. Is less than a predetermined value (9v in this embodiment), a low voltage signal indicating that the voltage has decreased is output to the basic circuit 302. The low voltage signal is an electric system abnormality signal indicating that there is an abnormality in the electric system for operating the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300, and the voltage monitoring circuit 338 corresponds to an example of an electric system abnormality signal output unit.

  In addition, the main control unit 300 is provided with a start signal output circuit (reset signal output circuit) 340 that outputs a start signal (reset signal) when the power is turned on. When the activation signal is input, game control is started (main control unit main processing described later is started). The CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 corresponds to an example of game control means.

The main control unit 300 includes an output interface for transmitting a command to the first sub-control unit 400 and an output interface for transmitting a command to the payout control unit 600. With this configuration, the first control unit 300 Communication with the sub-control unit 400 and the payout control unit 600 is enabled. Information communication between the main control unit 300 and the first sub-control unit 400 and the payout control unit 600 is one-way communication. The main control unit 300 sends commands and the like to the first sub-control unit 400 and the payout control unit 600. The first sub control unit 400 and the payout control unit 600 are configured such that signals such as commands cannot be transmitted to the main control unit 300.
<Sub control unit>

  Next, the first sub control unit 400 of the pachinko machine 100 will be described. The first sub-control unit 400 includes a basic circuit 402 that controls the entire first sub-control unit 400 mainly based on commands transmitted from the main control unit 300. The basic circuit 402 includes a CPU 404 and A RAM 408 for temporarily storing data, an I / O 410 for controlling input / output of various devices, and a counter timer 412 for measuring time, the number of times, and the like are mounted. The CPU 404 of the basic circuit 402 operates by inputting a clock signal of a predetermined period output from the crystal oscillator 414 as a system clock. The basic circuit 402 is connected to a ROM 406 for storing control programs and various effects data. The ROM 406 may store the control program and various effect data in separate ROMs.

  The basic circuit 402 detects a sound source IC 416 for controlling the speaker 120 (and amplifier), a drive circuit 420 for controlling various lamps 418, and pressing of the chance button 136 shown in FIG. A chance button detection sensor 426 and a sensor circuit 428 that outputs a detection signal from the chance button detection sensor 426 to the basic circuit 402 are connected.

  Furthermore, a second sub-control unit 500 for controlling the decorative symbol display device (liquid crystal display device) 208 and the shielding device 246 is connected to the first sub-control unit 400.

The sub-control unit that combines the first sub-control unit 400 and the second sub-control unit 500 receives a command signal from the main control unit 300 that is a game control unit, and based on the received command signal, the decorative symbol display device The effect means such as 208 is controlled.
<Discharge control unit, launch control unit, power supply management unit>

  Next, the payout control unit 600, the launch control unit 630, and the power management unit 660 of the pachinko machine 100 will be described.

  The payout control unit 600 controls the payout motor 602 of the payout device 152 shown in FIG. 52 mainly based on a signal such as a command transmitted from the main control unit 300, and awards based on a control signal output from the payout sensor 604. While detecting whether or not the payout of the ball or the rental ball has been completed, communication with a card unit 608 provided separately from the pachinko machine 100 is performed via the interface unit 606.

  The launch control unit 630 outputs a control signal output from the payout control unit 600 to permit or stop the launch, or a launch intensity output circuit provided in the ball launch handle 134 to operate the ball launch handle 134 by the player. Based on the control signal instructing the launch intensity according to the amount, the launch motor 632 for driving the launcher 146 and the launcher 148 shown in FIG. 51, or the ball feed for supplying the launcher 110 from the upper plate 126 to the launcher 110 The device 634 is controlled.

The power management unit 660 converts the AC power supplied from the outside to the pachinko machine 100 into a direct current, converts it to a predetermined voltage, and supplies the predetermined voltage to the payout control unit 600 and the second sub-control unit 500. The main control unit 300, the first sub control unit 400, and the launch control unit 630 are supplied with a predetermined voltage from the payout control unit 600. The power management unit 660 also stores a power storage circuit (for example, a power supply circuit) for supplying power to a predetermined component (for example, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300) for a predetermined period (for example, 10 days) even after the external power supply is cut off. , Capacitor). In the present embodiment, a predetermined voltage is supplied from the power management unit 660 to the payout control unit 600 and the second sub control unit 500, and the main control unit 300, the first sub control unit 400, and the launch control unit are supplied from the payout control unit 600. Although a predetermined voltage is supplied to 630, the predetermined voltage may be supplied to each control unit and each device through another power supply path.
<Type of design>

  Next, the first special symbol display device 212, the second special symbol display device 214, the decorative symbol display device 208, and the normal symbol display device 210 of the pachinko machine 100 will be described with reference to FIGS. The types of special maps and general maps to be stopped will be described.

  FIG. 55 (a-1) shows an example of the stop symbol mode (first symbol mode) of FIG. The special figure 1 variable game is started on the condition that the first start port sensor, which is a ball detection sensor, detects that a ball has entered the first special figure start port 230. When the special figure 1 variable game is started, the first special symbol display device 212 repeats the lighting of all the seven segments and the lighting of the central one segment “variable display of special figure 1” (special figure). 1 variation game). Then, when the variation time determined before the variation start of the special figure 1 elapses, the first special symbol display device 212 stops and displays the stop symbol form of the special figure 1. Hereinafter, a series of displays from the start of the “fluctuation display of special figure 1” to the stop display of the stop symbol form of special figure 1 may be referred to as the symbol fluctuation display of special figure 1. The symbol variation display of the special figure 1 may be continuously performed a plurality of times.

  FIG. 55 (a-2) shows an example of the stop symbol mode (first symbol mode) of FIG. The special figure 2 variable game is started on the condition that the second start port sensor, which is a ball detection sensor, detects that a ball has entered the second special figure start port 232. When the special figure 2 variable game is started, the second special symbol display device 214 repeats the lighting of all of the seven segments and the lighting of the central one segment. 2 variation games). Then, when the variation time determined before the start of variation in the special figure 2 has elapsed, the second special symbol display device 214 stops and displays the stop symbol form of the special figure 2. Hereinafter, a series of displays from the start of the “fluctuation display of special figure 2” to the stop display of the stop symbol form of special figure 2 may be referred to as the symbol fluctuation display of special figure 2. The symbol variation display of the special figure 2 may be continuously performed a plurality of times.

  55 (a-1) and FIG. 55 (a-2) also show six types of special drawings from “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure F” as stop symbol forms in the symbol variation display. Also in FIG. 55 (a-1), FIG.

Also in (a-2), the white portions in the figure indicate the locations of the segments that are turned off, and the black portions indicate the locations of the segments that are turned on.

  In this embodiment, the stop symbol aspect of special figure 1 and the stop symbol aspect of special figure 2 are common. However, the special figure 2 has more advantageous game characteristics than the special figure 1, and in the special figure 2, the big hit symbols are all 15 round (R) special big hits. On the other hand, in Special Figure 1, only "Special Figure A" and "Special Figure B" are 15R special big hits, and "Special Figure C" and "Special Figure D" are 14R special big hits.

  The round here means the number of chances that a predetermined amount of game value (predetermined number of balls) can be obtained. In this embodiment, the number of operations of the variable prize opening (234, 235) is represented, and the 15th round is one or more opening / closing operations of the first variable prize opening 234 (one operation). ) After this operation has been performed 14 times, one or more opening / closing operations of the second variable prize opening 235 are performed once (one operation), and this operation is performed once. Fifteen rounds means that one or more opening / closing operations of the first variable prize opening 234 are performed once (one operation), and after this operation has continued 14 times, This means that the opening / closing operation is performed once (one operation), and this operation is performed once. Each round is one of a predetermined round end condition (for example, entry of a game ball of a predetermined number of balls (for example, 10 balls), acquisition of a predetermined amount of game value (predetermined number of balls), elapse of a predetermined time from the start of the round, etc. Or the process ends. In the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment, as will be described later, the determination as to whether or not the big hit in the special figure variable game is made by lottery of hardware random numbers, and the decision as to whether or not it is a special big hit is made by lottery of software random numbers. The difference between the big hit and the special big hit or the short time big hit is the difference in the probability of winning the big hit (special big hit or short time big hit) or low (big hit) in the next special figure variation game. Hereinafter, a state having a high probability of winning the jackpot is referred to as a special figure high probability state, and a state having a low probability is referred to as a special figure low probability state.

  In the present embodiment, in the special figure 2, when the big hit symbol (special figures A to D) is stopped and displayed, and the second variable prize opening 235 which becomes an open state (for example, an open state for 30 seconds) at the 15th R is won. After the big hit game, the control state becomes a special figure high probability state. If the second variable prize opening 235 is not won at 15R, the control state remains in the special figure low probability state after the big hit game ends. That is, it can be said that the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment performs the transition to the special figure high probability state by a structure such as the second variable winning opening 235. That is, in the present embodiment, for example, there is a case where the probability variable function operating region is inside the second variable prize opening 235 and the probability variable function operating region is called a high probability variable determining region switch (or “probability changing region switch”). In other words, the pachinko machine 100 that shifts to a special high probability state on condition that the game ball passes through the high probability variation determination region switch is disclosed. Further, in the high probability variation determination region valid state set while the second variable winning opening 235 is in the open state, the special ball high probability state is entered on condition that the game ball passes to the high probability variation determination region switch. You may make it transfer. On the other hand, in the special figure 1, “special figure A” or “special figure B” is stopped and displayed on the condition that the winning to the second variable winning opening 235 of the 15R is made, and after the big hit game is over, the special figure is in a high probability state. Thus, “special drawing C” or “special drawing D” is a big hit of 14R, and since there is no 15R, there is no special figure high probability state, and the special figure low probability state remains. That is, according to the pachinko machine 100 of the present embodiment, the 15th round jackpot is a jackpot that gives the right to shift to the special figure high probability state after the jackpot game ends, and is the second variable prize that is only opened at the 15th round. On condition that a winning is made in the mouth 235, the game shifts to a special figure high probability state after the big hit game ends.

  The special figure low probability state corresponds to an example of a first probability control state. In addition, a special figure high probability state after the jackpot game ends may be referred to as a special figure probability change.

The state in which the probability of selection is high (the special figure high probability state) is a control state in which the player's advantage is high, and corresponds to an example of a second probability control state. This special figure high probability state may be referred to as a probability variation state or simply a probability variation. In this embodiment, in the case of jackpot with probability change, after the jackpot game ends, while the symbol variation display is performed 100 times, the probability variation state (special figure high probability state) is maintained, and the 101st time is a non-probability variation state. (Special figure low probability state) The probability variation state may be maintained until the next big hit.

  In the present specification, description will be made using a term indicating a state in the gaming machine (the pachinko machine 100) called a control state, but the term “control state” includes a concept of a so-called gaming state. The transition of the probability control state is performed by the main control unit 300, and the main control unit 300 corresponds to an example of a probability control state transition unit.

Further, in this embodiment, when the big hit is won, after the big hit game is over, the state shifts to a state with electric support (electric support) (hereinafter referred to as an electric support state). In the electric support state, after the big hit in the special figure fluctuation game is finished, the symbol change display is performed 100 times in the case of a big hit with probability variation, and the symbol variation display of 50 times in the case of a big hit without probability variation. This is a predetermined state that is maintained while the player is performing and the player's advantage is higher than the non-electric support state. This power support state is one of the control states prepared in the pachinko machine 100, and may be referred to as a time-short state. That is, the electric support state (time-short state) is started on condition that the big hit game ends. Strictly speaking, the “electric support state” is a state related to a general plan, and the “short-time state” is a state related to a special figure or a state related to a general figure and a special figure. The RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 is also provided with a time reduction flag. When the time reduction flag is set to ON, it is in the electric support state and is usually in a high probability state. In the normal figure high probability state, compared to the normal figure low probability state, it becomes easier to win the common figure variable game (general figure certain change). For example, the winning probability of the usual figure floating game is 1/101 in the usual figure low probability state (non-electric support state), but increases to 99/101 in the usual figure high probability state (electric support state). In addition, in the electric support state, the fluctuation time of the general figure change game is shorter than that in the non-electric support state (general figure short). For example, in the non-electric support state, the fluctuation time of the usual game of 10 seconds is reduced to 1.2 seconds in the electric support state. Further, in the electric support state, compared to the non-electric support state, the opening time in one opening of the pair of blade members 2321 of the second special figure starting port 232 tends to be long (electric chew releasing period extension). For example, in the non-electric support state, the electric chew release period of 0.3 seconds is extended to 1.7 seconds in the electric support state. Furthermore, the pair of blade members 2321 are more likely to open in the electric support state than in the non-electric support state (increase the number of times the electric chew is released). For example, a pair of blade members 2321 that can be opened only once in the non-electric support state per opening to the normal start port 228 is opened three times in the electric support state (for example, 3 to open for 1.7 seconds) Repeatedly, the closing time between opening is 1.6 seconds). The probability of entering the second special figure starting port 232 increases due to the extension of the electric chew release period and the increase in the number of electric chew release times. Note that the hourly flag is set to off during the big hit game. Therefore, the non-electric support state is maintained during the big hit game. This is because, if the power is supported during the big hit game, a predetermined number of the variable winning holes (234, 235) during the big hit game and a large amount at the second special figure start opening 232 until the game ball enters. In order to solve this problem, there is a problem that the number of game balls that can be obtained during the big hit increases the number of game balls that can be acquired during the big hit and the gambling is increased. In the present embodiment, in the electric support state (short-time state), all of the normal figure change, the universal figure change, the electric chew release period extension, and the electric chew release frequency increase are performed. If any one is performed, a player's advantage will be in a high state and it may be in an electric support state (time-short state). Alternatively, if either one of the extension of the electric chew release period or the increase in the number of electric chew release is performed, the electric support state (short-time state) may be set. . In the non-electric support state, the game ball is less likely to enter the second special figure starting port 232 than in the electric support state. As described above, in the second special figure starting port 232, the size of the entrance into which the game ball enters changes from one of the small size and the large size to the other size. The entrance of the second special figure starting port 232 is larger in the electric support state over a longer period than in the non-electric support state.

  In the present embodiment, in the special figure 2, the jackpot symbol (special figures A to D) is stopped and displayed, and when the second variable prize opening 235 which is opened at the 15th R is won, the bonus game is completed 100 times after the jackpot game ends. While the symbol variation display is performed, the probability change state and the electric support state (special figure high probability normal figure high probability state) are maintained, and the 101st time the non-probable state and the non electric support state (special figure low probability normal figure low probability) If the second variable winning opening 235 is not won at the 15th R, after the big hit game is finished, the electric support state (ordinary figure) is displayed while the symbol variation display is performed 50 times in the non-probable state. The high probability state) is maintained, and the 51st operation shifts to the non-electric support state (ordinary low probability state). As described above, in the present embodiment, the first condition is always easily established when a big hit is made in the variable game of FIG.

  On the other hand, in the special figure 1, “special figure A” or “special figure B” is stopped and displayed 100 times after the big hit game is over, on condition that the 15R second variable prize opening 235 is won. During the process, the probability change state and the electric support state (special figure high probability normal figure high probability state) are maintained, and the 101st time is the non-probable change state and the non-electric support state (special figure low probability normal figure low probability state). If there is no winning at the second variable winning opening 235 at 15R, the power support state (while the symbol variation display is performed 50 times with the non-probability changing state after the big hit game is finished. The normal state high probability state) is maintained, and the 51st operation shifts to the non-electric support state (normal state low probability state). Also, in the special figure 1, when “Special figure C” or “Special figure D” is stopped and displayed, after the big hit game is finished, the symbol change display is performed while 50 symbols change display is performed in the non-probable state. The state (normal high probability state) is maintained, and the 51st shift to the non-electric support state (normal low probability state).

  In the non-electric support state, the entrance of the second special figure starting port 232 is kept small. On the other hand, as described above, in the electric support state, the entrance of the second special figure starting port 232 is large, and the entry rate of game balls is increased. That is, in the non-electric support state, the game ball enters the second special figure start port 232 that is the variable start area at the first approach rate, whereas in the electric support state, the game ball starts the second special figure start. It enters the mouth 232 at a second approach rate that is higher than the first approach rate. Therefore, the non-electric support state corresponds to an example of the first approach rate control state, and the electric support state corresponds to an example of the second approach rate control state.

  In the present embodiment, a small hit is not prepared, but a small hit may be prepared. In this small hit, during the small hit game, the first door member 2341 of the first variable winning opening 234 operates a predetermined number of times (for example, 15 times), and the first door member 2341 is Maintains an open state for a maximum of 1.5 seconds per run. In opening the first door member 2341 at the small hit, for example, when a game ball enters a predetermined number of balls (for example, 10 balls) in the first opening, or a predetermined amount of game value (a predetermined number of balls) is obtained. Once acquired, the second and subsequent releases are not performed. During the small hit game, it shifts to the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state. The small hit is a role in which the control state does not change before and after the small hit game, and after the small hit game is finished, the control state returns to the control state before the start of the small hit game.

  In the big hit game, the variable winning opening (234, 235) is opened, and the player's advantage is relatively high.

  In this embodiment, two types of lost symbols are also prepared. The special figure E shown in FIG. 55 (a-1) and FIG. 55 (a-2) is the first lose symbol, and the special figure F is the second lose symbol. When the lost symbol is stopped and displayed, the door members (2341, 2351) of the variable prize opening (234, 235) are not opened and closed, and the player's advantage is relatively low. In addition, a losing symbol (for example, a third losing symbol, etc.) other than “Special E” and “Special F” may be prepared. In this embodiment, the losing symbol includes a plurality of types of symbols. It is a waste.

  As described above, in the pachinko machine 100 of the present embodiment, the hit control state of the second advantage with a high advantage of the player and the first advantage with a lower advantage than the second advantage. A loss control state is prepared, and the pachinko machine 100 takes either one of a hit control state (second control state) and a loss control state (first control state). The transition of the control state is also performed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300, and the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 corresponds to an example of a control state transition unit.

  In the pachinko machine 100 of the present embodiment, other symbols corresponding to “Special Figure A” are prepared, and the same applies to other symbols such as “Special Figure B”.

  The first special figure display device 212 and the second special figure display device 214 are notifying means for informing the determination result (lottery result), and the pattern mode ( This corresponds to an example of symbol display means for performing symbol variation display until the special symbols A to F) are stopped and displayed.

  FIG. 55B shows an example of a decorative design. There are 10 types of decoration patterns of the present embodiment: “Decoration 1” to “Decoration 10”. The first start port sensor detects that a ball has won the first special figure start port 230 or the second special view start port 232, that is, the ball has entered the first special view start port 230; or On the condition that the second start port sensor detects that a ball has entered the second special symbol start port 232, the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display of the decorative symbol display device 208 are displayed. Displayed in the order of “decoration 1” → “decoration 2” → “decoration 3” →... “Decoration 9” → “decoration 10” → “decoration 1” →... “Decoration display of decorative pattern” is performed. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 variably displays the decorative symbols separately from the first special symbol display device 212 and the second special symbol display device 214. And the stop symbol aspect (2nd symbol aspect) which is a combination of a decoration symbol is stopped and displayed. When notifying 14R big hit (normal big hit) or 15R special big hit (big hit with probability variation), “decorative combination 1” (for example, “decoration 1” in which three identical decorative symbols are arranged in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. -Decoration 1-Decoration 1 "and" Decoration 2-Decoration 2-Decoration 2 ") are stopped and displayed. In addition, “decoration pattern combination 2” (for example, “decoration 3—decoration 3—decoration 3” or “decoration 7—decoration 7—decoration 7”), in which the same three odd-numbered ornamental patterns are arranged in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. Etc.) is stopped, the 15R special big hit (big hit with probability variation) is confirmed. In the present embodiment, the decorative symbol combination 2 corresponds to a second combination. Further, the combination of the decorative symbols 1 other than the decorative symbol combination 2 corresponds to the first combination.

  It should be noted that the stop symbol mode (see FIGS. 55 (a-1) and (a-2)) of Special Fig. 1 and Special Fig. 2 and the symbol display areas 208a to 208c on the left middle right of the decorative symbol display device 208 are displayed. The decorative pattern (see FIG. 5B) is larger in the stop pattern mode (see FIG. 5B) of one decorative pattern to be performed.

  FIG. 55 (c) shows an example of a usual stop symbol mode (second symbol mode). In the present embodiment, there are two types of stoppage display modes for ordinary maps: “general diagram A” which is a winning symbol and “general diagram B” which is a lost symbol. Based on the fact that the gate sensor, which is a sphere detection sensor, detects that the sphere has passed through the general start port 228, the general display display device 210 illuminates all seven segments and the central one segment. Repeat the lighting and perform “variable display of ordinary figure” (ordinary figure fluctuation game). Then, after the fluctuation time has elapsed, one of the symbols “general symbol A” which is a winning symbol and “general symbol B” which is a lost symbol is stopped and displayed. Also in FIG. 55C, the white portions in the figure indicate the locations of the segments that are turned off, and the black portions indicate the locations of the segments that are turned on.

In the following, a series of displays from the start of the “variable display of the usual figure” to the stop display of the stop pattern form of the usual figure may be referred to as a usual figure change stop display. The universal symbol display device 210 corresponds to an example of auxiliary symbol notification means.
<Main control unit main processing>

  Next, a main control unit main process executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 54 will be described with reference to FIG. This figure is a flowchart showing the flow of main processing of the main control unit.

  The RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 54 is provided with a jackpot special figure 1 random number counter, a loss special figure 1 random number counter, and a counter for these counters for special figure 2. In addition, the RAM 308 stores the special figure 1 holding number, the special figure 1 winning random value, the jackpot special figure 1 random value, the lost special figure 1 random value, the special figure 1 success / failure determination result, the special figure 1 determination result, The special figure 1 variation time, and the number of reservations, the random number value, and the result for special figure 2 are stored. In addition, the RAM 308 has a separate storage section divided into the maximum number of areas (four in this example) that can hold the start of the determination (lottery) for the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 separately. ing. As will be described later, the reserved storage unit of FIG. 1 includes 5 of special figure 1 winning random number value, jackpot special figure 1 random value, loss special figure 1 random value, and special figure 1 variation time determining random value. One random number value is set as one set, and these five random number values are stored for each area one set at a time in winning order (holding order).

  As described above, the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 54 is provided with the start signal output circuit (reset signal output circuit) 340 that outputs the start signal (reset signal) when the power is turned on. The CPU 304 of the basic circuit 302 to which this activation signal has been input resets by a reset interrupt and executes the main process of the main control unit shown in FIG.

  In step S101, initial setting 1 is performed. In this initial setting 1, setting of a stack initial value (temporary setting) to the stack pointer (SP) of the CPU 304, setting of an interrupt mask, initial setting of the I / O 310, initial setting of various variables stored in the RAM 308, to the WDT 314 The operation permission and initial value setting are performed. In the present embodiment, a numerical value corresponding to 32.8 ms is set in WDT 314 as an initial value.

  In step S103, the value of the counter of WDT 314 is cleared and time measurement by WDT 314 is restarted.

  In step S105, whether or not the low voltage signal is ON, that is, the voltage value of the power supply that the voltage monitoring circuit 338 supplies to the main control unit 300 via the second sub control unit 500 by the power supply control unit 660. Is less than a predetermined value (9v in this embodiment), it is monitored whether or not a low voltage signal indicating that the voltage has dropped is output. Then, when the low voltage signal is on (when the CPU 304 detects that the power supply is cut off), the process returns to step S103, and when the low voltage signal is off (when the CPU 304 does not detect that the power supply is cut off), The process proceeds to S107. Even when the predetermined value (9 V) is not yet reached immediately after the power is turned on, the process returns to step S103, and step S105 is repeatedly executed until the supply voltage becomes equal to or higher than the predetermined value.

  In step S107, initial setting 2 is performed. In this initial setting 2, a process for setting a numerical value for determining a cycle for executing a main control unit timer interrupt process, which will be described later, in the counter timer 312 and a predetermined port of the I / O 310 (for example, a test output port, A process of outputting a clear signal from the output port to the first sub control unit 400, a setting for permitting writing to the RAM 308, and the like are performed.

  In step S109, it is determined whether or not the state before the power interruption (before power interruption) is restored, and the state before the power interruption is not restored (when the basic circuit 302 of the main control unit 300 is set to the initial state). ) Proceeds to an initialization process (step S113).

  Specifically, first, a RAM clear signal transmitted when a store clerk or the like of the game shop operates the RAM clear switch 180 provided on the power supply board 182 shown in FIG. 52 (indicating that there has been an operation). If the RAM clear signal is ON (RAM clear is necessary), the process goes to step S113 to set the basic circuit 302 to the initial state. move on. On the other hand, when the RAM clear signal is OFF (when the RAM clear is not necessary), the power status information stored in the power status storage area provided in the RAM 308 is read, and the power status information is information indicating suspend. It is determined whether or not. If the power status information is not information indicating suspend, the process proceeds to step S113 to set the basic circuit 302 to an initial state. If the power status information is information indicating suspend, a predetermined area of the RAM 308 is set. A checksum is calculated by adding all the 1-byte data stored in (for example, all areas) to a 1-byte register whose initial value is 0, and the calculated checksum results in a specific value (for example, 0) (whether or not the checksum result is normal). When the checksum result is a specific value (eg, 0) (when the checksum result is normal), the process proceeds to step S111 to return to the state before the power interruption, and the checksum result is a specific value. If the value is other than 0 (for example, 0) (if the result of the checksum is abnormal), the process proceeds to step S113 to set the pachinko machine 100 to the initial state. Similarly, when the power status information indicates information other than “suspend”, the process proceeds to step S113.

  In step S111, power recovery processing is performed. In this power recovery process, the value of the stack pointer stored in the stack pointer save area provided in the RAM 308 at the time of power failure is read out and reset to the stack pointer (this setting). In addition, the value of each register stored in the register save area provided in the RAM 308 at the time of power interruption is read out and reset in each register, and then the interrupt permission is set. Thereafter, as a result of the CPU 304 executing the control program based on the reset stack pointer and registers, the pachinko machine 100 returns to the state when the power is turned off. That is, the processing is resumed from the instruction next to the instruction (predetermined in step S115) performed immediately before branching to the timer interrupt process (described later) immediately before the power interruption. In addition, a transmission information storage area is provided in the RAM 308 mounted on the basic circuit 302 in the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. In step S111, a power recovery command is set in the transmission information storage area. This power recovery command is a command indicating that the power has been restored to the state at the time of power-off, and is transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 in step S233 in the timer interrupt process of the main control unit 300 described later.

  In step S113, initialization processing is performed. In this initialization process, interrupt prohibition setting, stack initial value setting to the stack pointer (this setting), initialization of all storage areas of the RAM 308, and the like are performed. Further, here, a normal return command is set in the transmission information storage area provided in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300. This normal return command is a command indicating that the initialization process (step S113) of the main control unit 300 has been performed, and in the same way as the power recovery command, in step S233 in the timer interrupt process of the main control unit 300, 1 is transmitted to the sub-control unit 400.

  In step S115, after setting for prohibition of interruption, a basic random number initial value update process is performed. In this basic random number initial value update process, four initial value generating random number counters for generating initial values of the regular winning random number counter, the big hit special figure random value counter, and the lost special figure random value counter, Normal timer random value, special figure 1 variable time random number, and special figure 2 variable

Three random number counters for generating dynamic time determination random values are updated. For example, if the numerical value range that can be taken as a normal timer random number value is 0 to 20, a value is acquired from a random number counter storage area for generating a normal timer random value provided in the RAM 308, and 1 is added to the acquired value. Then, it is stored in the original random number counter storage area. At this time, if the result of adding 1 to the acquired value is 21, 0 is stored in the original random number counter storage area. Other initial value generation random number counters and random number counters are similarly updated. The main control unit 300 repeatedly executes the process of step S115 except during a timer interrupt process that starts every predetermined period.
<Main control unit timer interrupt processing>

  Next, a main control unit timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 will be described with reference to FIG. This figure is a flowchart showing the flow of the main control unit timer interrupt process.

  A main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 54 includes a counter timer 312 that generates a timer interrupt signal at a predetermined cycle (in this embodiment, about once every 2 ms), and the main control is triggered by this timer interrupt signal. The part timer interrupt process is started at a predetermined cycle.

  In step S201, a timer interrupt start process is performed. In this timer interrupt start process, a process of temporarily saving each register value of the CPU 304 to the stack area is performed.

  In step S203, the WDT 314 is periodically changed to the initial value (32.8 ms in this embodiment) so that no WDT interruption occurs (so as not to detect a processing abnormality). In the embodiment, the restart is performed once every about 2 ms, which is the period of the main control unit timer interrupt.

  In step S205, input port state update processing is performed. In this input port state update process, the detection signals of various sensors 320 shown in FIG. 54 including various ball detection sensors are input via the input port of the I / O 310, and the presence or absence of the detection signals is monitored. The data is stored in a signal state storage area provided for each sensor 320. If the detection signal of the sphere detection sensor is described as an example, information on the presence / absence of the detection signal of each sphere detection sensor detected in the timer interruption process (about 4 ms before) is stored in the RAM 308 for each sphere detection sensor. This information is read out from the previous detection signal storage area partitioned and stored in the RAM 308 in the previous detection signal storage area partitioned for each sphere detection sensor, and the previous timer interrupt processing (about 2 ms before) ) Is read from the current detection signal storage area provided for each sphere detection sensor in the RAM 308, and this information is read out from the previous detection signal storage area described above. To remember. Further, the detection signal of each sphere detection sensor detected this time is stored in the above-described current detection signal storage area.

  Further, in step S205, the information on the presence or absence of the detection signal of each sphere detection sensor stored in each storage area of the above-mentioned detection signal storage area, the previous detection signal storage area, and the current detection signal storage area is compared. It is determined whether or not the information on the presence or absence of detection signals for the past three times in the ball detection sensor matches the winning determination pattern information. This main control unit timer interrupt process that is repeatedly started at a very short interval of about 2 ms while one game ball passes one ball detection sensor is started several times. For this reason, every time the main control unit timer interrupt process is activated, in step S205 described above, a detection signal indicating that the same game ball has passed the same ball detection sensor is confirmed. As a result, a detection signal indicating that the same game ball has passed the same ball detection sensor is stored in each of the detection signal storage area, the previous detection signal storage area, and the current detection signal storage area. That is, when the game ball starts to pass through the ball detection sensor, there is no detection signal before, a previous detection signal, and a current detection signal. In this embodiment, a sphere

In consideration of erroneous detection of the detection sensor and noise, if the detection signal is stored twice consecutively after no detection signal, it is determined that there has been a prize. In the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 54, winning determination pattern information (in this embodiment, information indicating that there is no previous detection signal, that there is a previous detection signal, and that there is a current detection signal) is stored. In this step S205, information on the presence or absence of detection signals for the past three times in each sphere detection sensor is predetermined winning determination pattern information (in this embodiment, no previous detection signal, previous detection signal, current detection signal present). The first prize winning opening 235, the first variable winning opening 235, the first special figure starting opening 230, and the second special figure starting opening 232. It is determined that there has been a ball entering or a normal start port 228. In other words, it is determined that there has been a winning at these winning ports 234, 230 and the starting ports 230, 232, 228. For example, when the information on the presence / absence of the detection signals for the past three matches with the above-described winning determination pattern information in the general winning opening sensor for detecting the winning at the general winning opening 226, there is a winning at the general winning opening 226. If the information on the presence / absence of detection signals for the past three times does not match the above-described winning determination pattern information, the subsequent general winnings are performed. The process branches to the subsequent process without performing the process associated with winning the prize to the mouth 226. Note that the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300 stores winning determination clear pattern information (in this embodiment, information indicating that there is a detection signal before the previous time, no previous detection signal, and no current detection signal). After it is determined that there has been a single win, it is not determined that there has been a win until the information on the presence or absence of detection signals for the past three times matches the winning determination clear pattern information in each ball detection sensor, and the winning determination is cleared. If it matches the pattern information, it is next determined whether or not it matches the winning determination pattern information.

  In step S207 and step S209, basic random number initial value update processing and basic random number update processing are performed. In these basic random number initial value update processing and basic random number update processing, the value of the initial value generation random number counter performed in step S115 is updated, and then the normal winning random number value used in the main control unit 300, Special-purpose timer random numbers, jackpot special figure 1 random value, lose special figure 1 random value, special figure 1 variation time determining random value, jackpot special figure 2 random value, lose special figure 2 random value, and special figure 2. Update a random number counter for generating each random time value for determining the variation time. For example, if the range of values that can be taken as a random number value for a normal winning number is 0 to 100, a value is acquired from a random number counter storage area for generating a normal winning random number value provided in the RAM 308, and 1 is added to the acquired value. Then, it is stored in the original random number counter storage area. At this time, if the result of adding 1 to the acquired value is 101, 0 is stored in the original random number counter storage area. If it is determined that the random number counter has made one round as a result of adding 1 to the acquired value, the value of the initial value generating random number counter corresponding to each random number counter is acquired and stored in the storage area of the random number counter. set. For example, a value is acquired from a random number counter for generating a regular winning random number that fluctuates in a numerical range of 0 to 100, and a result obtained by adding 1 to the acquired value is stored in a predetermined initial value storage area provided in the RAM 308. If the value is equal to the previously set initial value (for example, 7), the value is acquired as an initial value from the initial value generation random number counter corresponding to the random number counter for generating the random number for winning the normal number, The initial value set this time is stored in the above-described initial value storage area in order to determine that the random number counter for generating the winning random number value has made one round next time, in addition to setting it in the random number counter for generating the winning random value Keep it. Further, apart from the above-described initial value storage area for determining that the random number counter for generating the random number for winning the normal signal has made one round next, it is determined that the random number counter for generating the special figure random number has made one round. An initial value storage area is provided in the RAM 308. In the present embodiment, the counter for acquiring the random value related to the special figure 1 and the counter for acquiring the random value related to the special figure 2 are separately provided, but the same counter may be used.

  In step S211, effect random number update processing is performed. In this effect random number update process, a random number counter for generating an effect random number used by the main control unit 300 is updated.

  In step S213, timer update processing is performed. In this timer update processing, the normal symbol display symbol update timer for timing the time for the symbol to be changed / stopped on the normal symbol display device 210, and the time for the symbol to be changed / stopped to be displayed on the first special symbol display device 212 are timed. Special symbol 1 display symbol update timer for performing, special symbol 2 display symbol update timer for measuring the time for the symbol to be changed and stopped on the second special symbol display device 214, a predetermined winning effect time, a predetermined opening time Various timers including a timer for measuring a predetermined closing time, a predetermined end effect period, and the like are updated.

  In step S215, winning prize counter update processing is performed. In this winning opening counter update process, when winning holes 234, 230 and starting holes 230, 232, 228 are won, the RAM 308 stores the winning ball number storage area provided for each winning hole or for each starting hole. The value is read out, 1 is added, and the original prize ball number storage area is set.

  In step S217, a winning acceptance process is performed. In this winning acceptance process, if there is a winning at the first special figure starting port 230 and the number of special figure 1 variable games on hold is less than a predetermined number (4 in this embodiment), a predetermined Get startup information. That is, if the number of holdings is less than the predetermined number, the special figure 1 winning random number value, the jackpot special figure 1 random value, the loss special figure 1 random value, and the special figure 1 variation time determining random value are acquired. The special figure 1 winning random value acquired here is a value obtained by processing a hardware random number (a value of hardware random number + a value of R register + 1). On the other hand, the jackpot special figure 1 random value, the loss special figure 1 random value, and the special figure 1 variation time determining random value are values obtained by processing software random numbers derived from the software random number counter provided in the RAM 308 (software Random number value + R register value + 1). The combination of the random value generation circuit 318 shown in FIG. 54, the software random number counter provided in the RAM 308, and the main control unit 300 that performs random number processing generates and derives start information. This corresponds to an example of (first start information deriving means, second start information deriving means). The various random number values (starting information) acquired here are stored as a set of starting information in a vacant area corresponding to the winning order (holding order) of the holding storage unit of FIG. The The reserved storage unit of FIG. 1 stores the start information acquired when a game ball enters the first special figure start port 230 (first start area) up to a predetermined first upper limit number (here, four). This corresponds to the first start information storage means that can be stored. At this time, various random values (starting information) may be temporarily stored in a temporary area provided in the RAM 308, and the value stored in the temporary area may be stored in the holding storage unit of FIG. The first start-up information storage means may be used, or the reserved storage section and the temporary area shown in FIG. 1 may be used as the first start-up information storage means. Further, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 adds 1 to the value of the number of holdings in FIG. 1 stored in the RAM 308, and the number of holdings in FIG. Therefore, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 corresponds to an example of a holding unit. As for special figure 2, each random value which is starting information is acquired similarly to special figure 1, and the acquired random number value is similarly stored as a set of starting information in the reserved storage unit of special figure 2 provided in RAM 308. In addition, 1 is added to the value of the number of holdings in FIG. 2 stored in the RAM 308. The reserved storage unit of the special figure 2 stores the start information acquired when the game ball enters the second special figure start port 232 (second start area) up to a predetermined second upper limit number (here, four). This corresponds to a possible second starting information storage means. At this time, various random values (starting information) may be temporarily stored in a temporary area provided in the RAM 308, and the value stored in the temporary area may be stored in the holding storage unit of FIG. 2 may be used as the second start-up information storage unit, or the reserved storage unit and the temporary area in FIG. 2 may be used as the second start-up information storage unit.

  In addition, when it is detected that the ball has passed through the general map start port 228 and the number of the general map variable games held is less than a predetermined number (4 in the present embodiment), the general map at that timing is used. The value of the random number counter for generating the winning random number is acquired as the starting winning random number value which is the starting information, and stored in a random number value storage area provided in the RAM 308 different from that for the special drawing. In this winning acceptance process, a predetermined ball detection sensor is used to win (winning) the first special figure starting port 230, the second special figure starting port 232, the ordinary drawing starting port 228, or the variable winning port (234, 235). Sphere) is detected, the first

The transmission information to be transmitted to the sub-control unit 400 includes the first special figure starting port 230, the second special figure starting port 232, the ordinary drawing starting port 228, and the winning prizes (entering balls) of the variable winning ports (234, 235). Set winning acceptance information indicating presence / absence.

  Further, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 is provided with a probability variation flag, and when a winning (winning) of the second variable prize opening 235 is detected, the probability variation flag is set to ON. In the present embodiment, the probability variation flag is not set to ON and remains off unless a winning (successful ball) at the second variable winning opening 235 is detected.

  Whether the start information of the special figure or the start information of the usual figure, if the number of holdings is equal to or greater than the predetermined number, the start information is not acquired and the process proceeds to step S219.

  In step S219, a payout request number transmission process is performed. The output schedule information and the payout request information output to the payout control unit 600 shown in FIG. 54 are composed of 1 byte, strobe information in bit 7 (indicating that data is set when on), bit 6 Power-on information (if turned on, indicates that this is the first command transmission after power-on), bits 4-5 indicate the current processing type for encryption (0-3), and bits 0-3 indicate encryption The number of payout requests after processing is shown.

  In step S221, a normal state update process is performed. This normal state update process performs one of a plurality of processes corresponding to the normal state. For example, in the normal state update process in the middle of the normal symbol display (the above-described general symbol display symbol update timer value is 1 or more), the 7-segment LED constituting the normal symbol display device 210 is repeatedly turned on and off. Turns off drive control. By performing this control, the normal symbol display device 210 performs a usual fluctuation display (ordinary figure fluctuation game).

  Also, in the normal state update process at the timing when the normal symbol change display time has elapsed (the timing at which the value of the general symbol display symbol update timer has changed from 1 to 0), if the hit flag is on, the hit symbol is displayed. The normal symbol display device 210 is controlled so that the 7-segment LED constituting the normal symbol display device 210 is turned on / off, and when the hit flag is off, the normal symbol display device 210 is configured to display the lost symbol display mode. 7 segment LED on / off drive control is performed. Further, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 is provided with a setting area for performing various settings in various processes, not limited to the normal state update process. Here, the above-described lighting / extinguishing drive control is performed, and the setting area is set to indicate that the normal stop display is being performed. By performing this control, the normal symbol display device 210 determines the symbol of either the winning symbol (the common symbol A shown in FIG. 55 (c)) or the lost symbol (the common symbol B shown in FIG. 55 (c)). Display. Thereafter, information indicating the stop period is set in a storage area of a normal stop time management timer provided in the RAM 308 in order to maintain the display for a predetermined stop display period (for example, 500 msec). With this setting, the symbol that has been confirmed and displayed is stopped and displayed for a predetermined period, and the player is notified of the result of the normal game.

  Further, if the result of the usual figure variable game is a hit, the usual figure hit flag is turned on as will be described later. When the usual figure hit flag is on, in the usual figure state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period ends (when the usual figure stop time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), The normal operation is set in the setting area, and the blade member 2321 is opened to a solenoid (332) for opening and closing the blade member 2321 of the second special figure starting port 232 for a predetermined opening period (for example, 2 seconds). And a signal indicating the open period is set in the storage area of the blade open time management timer provided in the RAM 308. The CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 that performs the opening control of the pair of blade members 2321 in this way corresponds to an example of a variable start region control unit that performs variable start region control. On the other hand, non-electric support state

If this is the case, in the setting area of the RAM 308, the normal operation is not set, and no signal is output to the open / close drive solenoid (332) of the blade member 2321 of the second special figure starting port 232. By doing so, the blade member 2321 remains closed. Note that a signal for maintaining the blade member 2321 in the closed state may be output without fail.

  In the case of the electric support state, in the process starting at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (the timing when the value of the blade opening time management timer is changed from 1 to 0), the predetermined closing period (for example, 0.1 second), a signal for holding the blade member 2321 in a closed state is output to the solenoid (332) for opening and closing the blade member 2321, and the valve is closed in the storage area of the blade closing time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Set information indicating the period.

  In the case of the electric support state, in the normal state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined closing period ends (the timing when the value of the blade closing time management timer changes from 1 to 0), In the setting area, set “Normal” inactive. Further, if the result of the usual figure variable game is lost, the usual figure lose flag is turned on as will be described later. When the usual figure loss flag is on, even in the usual figure state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period described above ends (when the value of the usual figure stop time management timer changes from 1 to 0), In the setting area of the RAM 308, normal operation inactive is set. In the general state update process in the case where the general map is not operating, nothing is done and the process proceeds to the next step S223.

  Subsequently, in the step S223, a general drawing related lottery process is executed. In this general map-related lottery process, the open / close control of the general map variable game and the second special map start port 232 is not performed (the state of the general map is not in operation), and the pending general map variable game is not held. When the number is 1 or more, it is decided whether to win or not to win the result of the variable figure game by random lottery based on the random number value stored in the random number value storage area. Make a hit determination (determining whether or not to win a normal figure)

  FIG. 58 (a) is a diagram showing a common figure determining high probability table, and FIG. 58 (b) is a figure showing a common figure determining low probability table. These tables are stored in the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300.

  When the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 obtains the normal winning random number value, it refers to the short time flag, and if the short time flag is on, it is in the high probability state of the normal winning time. 0 to 99) is derived as a universal figure determination result based on which random number range in the general figure determination high probability table shown in FIG. The hit probability in the usual high probability state is 99/100. The hit probability in the normal high probability state may be 100%.

  On the other hand, if the time flag is off, it is a normal low probability state. In this embodiment, the hit probability in the normal low probability state is 1/100. In the ordinary low probability state, the loss may be 100%. In such a case, in the ordinary low probability state (non-electric support state), the electric chew may not be released and a random lottery may be performed. It does not have to be done.

  As a result of the general drawing lottery, when winning, the hit flag provided in the RAM 308 is set to ON. If unsuccessful, turn off the winning flag. Regardless of the result of the determination of whether or not the normal figure is determined, the value of the random number counter for generating the normal figure timer random number described above is acquired as the normal figure timer random number value, and a plurality of values are determined based on the acquired general figure timer random number value. One time to display the variable map on the general map display device 210 is selected from the variable time, and this variable display time is stored in the general map variable time storage area provided in the RAM 308 as the normal map variable display time. . Note that the number of pending general figure variable games is stored in the general figure pending number storage area provided in the RAM 308. The value obtained by subtracting 1 from the number is

It is stored again in the usual figure number-of-holds storage area. In addition, the random number value that is used for determining whether or not it is normal is deleted.

  Subsequently, special figure prefetching processing (step S224) is executed. This special figure prefetch process will be described later.

  Next, the special figure state update process for each of the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 is performed. First, the special figure state update process (the special figure 2 state update process) for the special figure 2 is performed (step S225), Subsequently, the special figure state update process (special figure 1 state update process) about special figure 1 is performed (step S227). In the special figure 2 state update process, one of the following eight processes is performed according to the state of the special figure 2. For example, in the special figure 2 state update process in the middle of the special figure 2 fluctuation display (the value of the above-mentioned special figure 2 display symbol update timer is 1 or more), the 7-segment LED constituting the second special symbol display device 214 is turned on. Performs lighting / extinguishing drive control that repeatedly turns off. By performing this control, the second special symbol display device 214 performs the variable display of the special figure 2 (special figure 2 variable game).

  Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the general command rotation start setting transmission process is executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area described above, and the process ends.

  In the special figure 2 state update process starting at the timing when the special figure 2 variable display time has passed (the timing when the value of the special figure 2 display symbol update timer is changed from 1 to 0), the special figure in the special figure related lottery process to be described later Based on the determination result (stop pattern mode of the special figure), the 7 segment LED constituting the second special figure display device 214 is controlled to be turned on / off, and the special figure 2 stop display is being displayed in the setting area of the RAM 308. Set to represent. By performing this control, the second special symbol display device 214 performs a fixed display of any one of the symbols of the special symbols shown in FIG. 55 (a-2). After that, information indicating the stop period is set in the storage area of the special figure 2 stop time management timer provided in the RAM 308 in order to maintain the display for a predetermined stop display period (for example, 500 milliseconds). With this setting, the specially displayed special figure 2 is stopped and displayed for a predetermined period, and the result of the special figure 2 variable game is notified to the player.

  In addition, a predetermined transmission information indicating that a general command rotation stop setting transmission process is executed in a command setting transmission process (step S233) to be described later is additionally stored in the above-described transmission information storage area, and a pattern for stopping the variable display is displayed. Special figure 2 identification information indicating that it is special figure 2 is additionally stored in the RAM 308 as information to be included in command data, which will be described later, and the processing is terminated.

  If the result of the special figure 2 variable game is a big hit, the 15R big hit flag is turned on. When the 15R jackpot flag is on, in the special figure 2 state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period ends (the special figure 2 stop time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), the RAM 308 Is set in the setting area of the special figure 2 and a predetermined winning effect period (for example, 3 seconds), that is, waiting for a period during which an image for notifying the player that the big win by the decorative symbol display device 208 is started is displayed. In order to do this, information indicating the winning effect period is set in the storage area of the special figure 2 standby time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Further, 5H is additionally stored as transmission information (command type) in the transmission information storage area described above in order to execute the general command winning effect setting transmission process in the command setting transmission process (step S233).

  Further, in the special figure 2 state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined winning effect period ends (the timing when the value of the special figure 2 standby time management timer changes from 1 to 0), a predetermined release period (for example, 29 seconds) Or until the first variable winning opening 234 detects the winning of a predetermined number of game balls (for example, 10 balls) (for example, 10 balls).

A signal for holding the first door member 2341 in the opened state is output to the noid (332), and information indicating the opening period is set in the storage area of the door opening time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Further, 7H is additionally stored as transmission information (command type) in the above-described transmission information storage area in order to execute the general command big prize opening release setting transmission process in the command setting transmission process (step S233).

  In the special figure 2 state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (the timing when the door opening time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), the predetermined closing period (for example, 1.5 seconds) A signal for holding the first door member 2341 in a closed state is output to the solenoid (332) for opening and closing the first door member 2341 of the first variable prize winning opening 234, and the door closing time provided in the RAM 308 Information indicating the closing period is set in the storage area of the management timer. In addition, predetermined transmission information indicating that the special winning opening closing setting transmission process is executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  In addition, after the opening / closing control of the first door member 2341 is repeated 14 times (for 14 rounds), this time, a predetermined opening period (for example, 30 seconds or a predetermined number of balls ( The second door member 2351 is held in the open state by the solenoid (332) for opening and closing the second door member 2351 of the second variable prize opening 235) until the winning of the game ball (for example, 10 balls) is detected. A signal indicating the opening period is set in the storage area of the door opening time management timer provided in the RAM 308.

  Next, in the special figure 2 state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (the timing when the door opening time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), the predetermined closing period (for example, 1.5 seconds) A signal for holding the second door member 2351 in a closed state is output to the solenoid (332) for opening and closing the second door member 2351 of the second variable winning opening 235, and the door closing time provided in the RAM 308 Information indicating the closing period is set in the storage area of the management timer. Thus, in the special figure 2 state update process that starts after performing the opening / closing control of the second door member 2351 once (for one round), a predetermined end effect period (for example, 3 seconds), that is, a decorative symbol display device Information indicating the effect standby period is set in the storage area of the effect standby time management timer provided in the RAM 308 in order to set to wait for a period during which an image for notifying the player that the jackpot by 208 is to be ended is displayed. To do. In the present embodiment, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 allows the first variable prize opening 234 and the second variable prize opening 235 (which may be referred to as special electric accessories) to be opened. Outputs a special electric accessory release signal. Further, the special electric combination actuating signal is output during the opening of the special electric combination and during the closing period described above. The special electric accessory actuating signal is output in an effective period for processing the winning balls of the first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235 in the closing period, instead of the closing period described above. You may comprise. In the present embodiment, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 outputs an accessory continuous operation signal during the execution of the big hit game. That is, it can be said that the jackpot game is being executed while the accessory continuous operation signal is being output. These output signals may be output to an external hall computer via the information output circuit 336, may be output from a test output port, or output information. It may be output from both the circuit 336 and the test output port.

  As described above, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 is an example of variable winning control means for performing change control of the opening / closing state of the door members (2341, 2351) of the variable winning opening (234, 235) during the big hit gaming state. It corresponds to. The ROM 306 of the main control unit 300 stores the opening / closing patterns of the door members (2341, 2351) of the variable prize opening (234, 235), and the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 receives a special drawing from the ROM 306. An open / close pattern corresponding to the determination of whether or not the variable game is successful is acquired.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when winning (winning) of the second variable winning opening 235 is detected, the probability variation flag is set to ON. The RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 is also provided with a time reduction flag in addition to the probability variation flag. Further, the RAM 308 is also provided with a number storage unit. In the present embodiment, the time reduction flag is set to ON simultaneously with the end of the big hit game. If the probability variation flag is set to ON, 100 is set in the number storage unit, and if the probability variation flag remains OFF, the power support count is set to 50 in the number storage unit. It should be noted that 100 times may be set in the number-of-times storage section at the stage where the winning (winning) of the second variable winning opening 235 is detected. In addition, the winning flag is turned on when a winning at the second variable winning opening 235 is detected, and the probability variation flag is set to ON on condition that the winning flag is turned on at the end of the big hit game. You may make it do. Further, in this embodiment, after the big hit game is over, when shifting to the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state, the control state continues until the symbol variation display of 100 times is performed, and the special figure low probability In the case of transition to the normal figure high probability state, the control state continues until the symbol variation display of 50 times is performed. Even when transitioning to the low probability normal pattern high probability state, for example, the symbol variation display count that the control state continues is set to the same number in any control state, for example, it is continued until 100 symbol variation displays are performed. May be.

  When a value is set in the number storage unit provided in the RAM 308, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 subtracts 1 from the value if the value is 1 or more, and the subtraction result is 1 to 0. If it becomes, the time reduction flag is turned off. If the probability variation flag is on, the probability variation flag is also turned off when the subtraction result in the number storage unit is changed from 1 to 0.

  Also during the big hit game, the probability variation flag and the hourly flag are turned off. That is, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 shifts to the non-electric support state (first entry rate control state) when the big hit gaming state (second control state).

  Furthermore, 6H is additionally stored as transmission information (command type) in the above-described transmission information storage area in order to execute the general command end effect setting transmission process in the command setting transmission process (step S233).

  Also, in the special figure 2 state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined end production period ends (when the production standby time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), the special figure 2 is not activated in the setting area of the RAM 308. Set medium. Furthermore, if the result of the special figure 2 variable game is a loss, the loss flag is turned on. When the lost flag is on, even in the special figure 2 state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period described above ends (the timing when the special figure 2 stop time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), In the setting area of the RAM 308, special figure 2 inactive is set. In the special figure 2 state update process when the special figure 2 is not in operation, nothing is done and the process proceeds to the next process.

  When the special figure 2 state update process is completed, the special figure 1 state update process is performed. If the result of the special figure 1 variable game is 15R special big hit, the 15R big hit flag is turned on, and if the result is 14R big hit, the 14R big hit flag is turned on. When the 15R jackpot flag is on, the process is the same as the process described in the special figure 2 state update process described above, in which “special figure 2” is replaced with “special figure 1”.

On the other hand, when the 14R big hit flag is on, the opening / closing control of the second door member 2351 at the second variable winning opening 235 is not performed, and the first door member 2341 at the first variable winning opening 234 is not controlled. After performing the opening / closing control, information indicating the effect standby period is set in the storage area of the effect standby time management timer in the RAM 308, and thereafter, the same control as that described in the special figure 2 state update process is performed. . Therefore, the probability variation flag remains off and the time reduction flag is set to on, but the number of times of electric support is set to 50 in the number storage unit.
The order of the special figure 2 state update process and the special figure 1 state update process may be reversed.

  When the special figure state update process in step S225 and step S227 is completed, a special figure related lottery process for each of special figure 1 and special figure 2 is performed. The CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 that executes the special figure related lottery process corresponds to an example of the determination unit. The main control unit 300 first performs the process for the special figure 2 (the special figure 2 related lottery process (step S229)), and then performs the process for the special figure 1 (the special figure 1 related lottery process (step S231)). Do. As described above, the main control unit 300 performs the special figure 2 related lottery process (step S229) before the special figure 1 related lottery process (step S231), so that the first special figure start port 230 can be operated at the same timing. When starting information is acquired based on a game ball entering and starting information is acquired based on a game ball entering the second special figure starting port 232, or a special figure 2 variable game start condition Even if the start condition of the special figure 1 variable game is satisfied at the same time, or both the start condition of the special figure 2 variable game and the start condition of the special figure 1 variable game are satisfied, the special figure 2 variable game is first Therefore, the special figure 1 variable game does not start to change. That is, the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment performs special figure 2 priority fluctuation, and the lottery based on the winning at the second special figure start port 232 (determination of special figure 2) is determined as the first special figure start. This is prioritized over a lottery based on winning a prize in the mouth 230 (a determination of success / failure in FIG. 1). In other words, in the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment, when a game ball enters the first special start area, the random number value is stored in the first random number storage area up to the maximum hold number, and the second special start area In the case where a game ball is won, the winning random number storage area stores up to the maximum number of reserved random numbers in the second random number value storage area, and both the first random number value storage area and the second random number value storage area When a random number value is stored, the random number value is stored in the first random value storage area and the random number value is stored in the second random value storage area regardless of the stored random number value. The determination is made based on the random number value stored in the second random value storage area, the random value is not stored in the first random value storage area, and the second random value storage area If a random value is stored in the second random number A determination is made based on the random number value stored in the value storage area, no random value is stored in the second random value storage area, and a random value is stored in the first random value storage area. In the case where it is determined, a determination unit is provided for determining whether or not it is correct based on the random number value stored in the first random value storage area. In addition, the main control unit 300 notifies the result of the jackpot determination of the special figure variable game by the first special figure display device 212 or the second special figure display device 214, and wins a prize to the second special figure start port 232. Based on the determination result, the start information of FIG. 1 is used as the start information in which the determination result is not performed. In the state where only the start information of the special figure 1 of the start information of the special figure 2 remains, and the start information of the special figure 2 is newly stored, the newly stored start of the special figure 2 The notification of the result of the determination based on the information is performed prior to the notification of the result of the determination based on the startup information of FIG. Further, the start information acquisition means for acquiring start information, when start information is stored in both of the first start information storage means and the second start information storage means, the second start information When starting information is acquired from the storage means and the starting information is stored in one of the first starting information storing means and the second starting information storing means, the starting information is stored. The starting information is obtained from the information storage means. It should be noted that the special figure 2 related lottery process is performed first after the special figure 2 state update process of step S225, and then the special figure 1 state update process of step S227 is performed, and then the special figure 1 related lottery process is performed. It may be. Further, the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment performs the special figure 2 priority fluctuation, but it is determined whether or not the first special figure starting port 230 and the second special figure starting port 232 are awarded according to the winning order (winning). (Forward fluctuation) may be performed. For example, when winning in the order of the second special figure starting port 232, the first special figure starting port 230, and the second special figure starting port 232, the pachinko machine 100 that changes the winning order changes the special figure 2 The determination is made in the order of determination of success / failure determination of FIG.

  In the special figure 2 related lottery process (step S229), the execution of the success / failure determination (lottery) for the special figure 2, determination of the special figure to be stopped, and determination of the variation time are performed. The CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 that executes the special figure related lottery process corresponds to an example of the determination unit. In the special figure 2 related lottery process, first, it is determined whether or not a predetermined condition is satisfied. In this determination, first, it is determined whether or not a predetermined success / failure determination prohibition condition is not satisfied. That is, it is determined whether or not the second special figure display device 214 is displaying the special figure variation or the stop display, and if any one is being displayed, the main controller timer interrupt processing is performed. Returning, if neither is displayed, it is determined whether it is set during special figure operation or special figure non-operation, and if it is set during special figure operation, the main controller timer interrupt Returning to the process, if the special figure is not in operation, it is determined that the validity determination prohibition condition has not been established, and this time, it is determined whether or not a predetermined validity determination condition has been established. The determination as to whether or not the game is successful is determined by referring to the reserved storage unit of the special figure 2 provided in the RAM 308 to determine whether or not the number of the special figure 2 variable game held is larger than zero. If the hold number is 0, the process returns to the main control unit timer interrupt process. On the other hand, if the number of holdings is 1 or more, a predetermined success / failure determination condition is established, and the start information stored most recently from the holding storage unit of FIG. Random value for set (Special figure 2 winning random value, Special figure 2 random value for jackpot, Special figure 2 random value for lost, and Special figure 2 variable time determining random value) is taken out and stored in its reserved storage The start information (a set of random values) that has been stored is transferred from the currently stored area to the adjacent area. That is, if the starting information stored in the past is taken out from the holding storage unit of FIG. 2 and the starting information is stored in the holding storage unit of FIG. 2, the Nth oldest starting information is held in FIG. It is set as the (N-1) oldest starting information in the storage unit. Also, 1 is subtracted from the pending number stored in the RAM 308. One set of random values from the reserved storage unit of the special figure 2 of the RAM 308 (the special figure 2 winning random value, the jackpot special figure 2 random value, the lost special figure 2 random value, and the special figure 2 variable time determining random number value) The CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 that performs the process of taking out) corresponds to an example of a second start-up information acquisition unit.

  FIG. 58 (c) is a diagram showing a high / failure determination table, and FIG. 58 (d) is a diagram showing a low / probability determination table. These tables are stored in the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300.

  When the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 retrieves the start information from the holding storage unit of the RAM 308, the CPU 304 refers to the probability variation flag. If the probability variation flag is on, the special diagram high probability state is obtained. Based on which random number range in the high probability table for success / failure determination shown in FIG. 10 (c) belongs to the numerical range to be obtained, “big hit” or “lost” To derive. The big hit probability in the special figure high probability state is 1 / 65.536.

On the other hand, if the probability variation flag is off, it is in the special figure low probability state. Therefore, based on which random number range in the special figure 2 winning random number table shown in FIG. Then, “big hit” or “losing” is derived as the result of the special figure 2 determination. The big hit probability in the special figure low probability state is 1 / 262.144.
Next, the symbol of the special figure 2 is determined based on the special figure 2 determination result.

  FIG. 58 (e) is a diagram showing a special figure determination table. This table is also stored in the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300. In this special figure determination table, a random number range corresponding to a special symbol stop symbol mode (see FIG. 55 (a-2)) is defined for each success / failure determination result.

  The CPU 304 of the main control unit 300, if the special figure 2 determination result is a big hit, the big hit special figure 2 random number out of one set of random values previously acquired from the reserved storage unit of the RAM 308.

It is determined whether the value (possible numerical range is 0 to 99) belongs to which random number range in the jackpot in the special figure determination table shown in FIG. As the determination results, “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure D” are determined. All random number ranges are 25%, and the distribution probability is the same. The distribution probability may be different for each symbol.

  Further, if the result of the special figure 2 win / fail judgment is a loss, the special figure 2 random value for the loss (a numerical value range that can be taken is 0 to 0) among the random values for one set previously acquired from the holding storage unit of the RAM 308. 99) determines which random number range out of the misses the result of determination of the success / failure in the special figure determination table shown in FIG. Determine “Special Figure F”. The special figure 2 decision result decided here is information representing the symbol form of special figure 2 to be stopped and displayed by the second special figure display device 214.

  Deriving “big hit” or “losing” may be determined as the success / failure determination, but determining the special symbol of the stop symbol form may also be determined as the success / failure determination.

  Subsequently, the symbol variation time (special symbol 2 variation time) in the symbol variation display of the special symbol 2 is determined based on the special symbol 2 determination result. First, the special symbol in the special symbol 1 related lottery process (step S231) is determined here. The determination of FIG. 1 determination result and the special figure 1 to be stopped will be described.

  First, in the special figure 1 related lottery process, one set of random values (special figure 1 winning random number value, jackpot special figure 1 random value, loss special figure 1 random value, And a special figure 1 variation time determination random number value) are taken out, based on one set of random values (starting information), execution / non-use determination (lottery) for special figure 1 and determination of special figure to be stopped and displayed I do. In the execution of the success / failure determination, the success / failure determination table shown in FIG. 58 (c) and FIG. 58 (d) is used, and the special figure determination table shown in FIG. In the case of special figure 1, special figure A and special figure B are big hits of 15 rounds, and there is a possibility of big hits with certainty. The probability of a big hit of 15 rounds in Special Figure 1 is 50%. However, if the second variable prize opening 235 is not won in the 15th round, the probability variation is not provided, and the number of time reductions is reduced to 50 times.

  In both the special figure 2 lottery process and the special figure 1 related lottery process, when the special figure to be stopped (special figure determination result) is determined, the special figure variable display is performed based on the special figure determination result. Determine the symbol variation time. In addition, in this embodiment, since there is almost no chance that the symbol variation display is executed for the special symbol 2 in the low probability state of the ordinary figure, the symbol variation display related to the special symbol 2 in the low probability state of the common symbol is not all. The same symbol variation time (for example, 5 seconds) may be used. At this time, the symbol variation time may be different between the symbol variation display that is lost and the symbol variation display that is a big hit.

  FIG. 59 (a) is a diagram showing a table set selection table in the case of big win in FIG. 1, and FIG. 59 (b) is a diagram showing a table set selection table in the case of big hit in FIG. These tables are also stored in the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300.

  In the present embodiment, in the normal figure low probability state, the general drawing lottery is only hit with a probability of 1/100, so the electric chew is almost not opened, and the probability of winning the second special figure starting port 232 is low. The table shown in FIG. 59 (a) corresponds to a table set selection table that is frequently used in the case of the normal figure low probability (special figure low probability normal figure low probability) state. For reference, FIG. 59A shows the control state after the big hit game corresponding to the stop pattern at the time of the big hit in the special figure 1. FIG. A circle mark indicates that it is attached, and a cross mark indicates that it is not present (hereinafter the same).

  On the other hand, in the high probability state of ordinary figure, the electric Chu is almost open, than the big hit in Special Figure 1

Since the big hit in Special Figure 2 is more advantageous to the player, the player aims at the second special figure starting port 232, and the table shown in FIG. This corresponds to a table set selection table that is frequently used in the case of the probability, special figure low probability normal figure high probability) state. For reference, FIG. 59B shows a control state after the big hit game corresponding to the stop pattern at the time of the big hit in the special figure 2.

  Note that in both FIG. 59 (a) and FIG. 59 (b), if the second variable winning opening 235 opened in the fifteenth round is not won, there is no certainty change.

  If the special figure determination result is a big hit (15R big hit) symbol that the second special figure starting port 232 opens from the table shown in FIG. 59A and the table shown in FIG. When 1 is selected and the special figure determination result is a big hit (14R big hit) symbol that the second special figure start port 232 does not open, the table set 2 is selected.

  FIG. 59C is a diagram for explaining tables used in the table set.

  In the table set, as will be described in detail later, a table to be used is defined in accordance with the number of symbol fluctuations of the special figure after the big hit game ends.

  There are five types of tables 1 to 5 used in the table set. Table 1 is a table originally used in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, and the default gaming state of the table 1 Becomes a low probability state of special maps. Table 2 is a table originally used in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, and the default gaming state of the table 2 is the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state. The table 3 is originally a table used in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state, and the default game state of the table 3 is the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state. The table 4 is originally a table used in the state immediately before falling in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, and the default gaming state of the table 4 becomes the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state. The table 5 is a table that is originally used in the state immediately before falling in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state, and the default gaming state of the table 5 is the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state. Thus, in this embodiment, the table used according to a control state differs.

Each table is used when selecting a variable time (timer number) to be used, as will be described in detail later.
FIG. 59 (d) is a diagram for explaining timer numbers.

  FIG. 59 (d) shows the variation time corresponding to each timer number. Further, it is performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) according to the control state (special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, special figure high probability normal figure high probability state, special figure low probability normal figure high probability state). The production mode is also shown for reference. In the present embodiment, the variation time (timer number) of the special figure and the effect mode of the decorative symbol display device 208 are associated one-to-one according to the gaming state. That is, if the gaming state is different, the effect pattern of the decorative symbol display device 208 is different even if the timer number is the same. For example, even when the timer number is 4 (10 seconds), in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state or in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, it becomes the rendering mode of Battle Gase Aori 1, and the special figure low probability ordinary figure low. In the probabilistic state, it becomes a normal losing effect mode. Even if the timer number is 6 (30 seconds), the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state or the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state becomes the effect mode of battle A defeat, and the special figure low probability normal figure low In the probabilistic state, it becomes an effect mode of Super Reach A Loss. As described above, depending on whether the normal figure high probability state or the normal figure low probability state is used, the effect pattern on the decorative symbol display device 208 may be different even though the variation time is the same.

  The main control unit 300 may determine the effect mode of the decorative symbol display device 208 corresponding to the variation time of the special figure, but in the present embodiment, information indicating the variation time determined here and the current game Information representing the state is transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400, and the first sub-control unit 400 determines an effect mode in the decorative symbol display device 208 corresponding to the variation time according to the gaming state.

  The effect forms in the decorative symbol display device 208 include an effect aspect with a reach effect and an effect aspect without a reach effect. “Super-shortening”, “shortening”, “normal”, and “Battle Gase Aori” are production modes that do not involve reach production, and other than these are production modes that involve reach production. Note that “Battle Gase Aori” is an effect mode that expresses what is likely to develop into a reach effect.

  In the present embodiment, normal reach and super reach (SP reach) are prepared as reach effects. In normal reach, generally, two symbol display areas (for example, the left and right symbol display areas 208a and 208c shown in FIG. 53) have the same decorative symbol stopped and the remaining one symbol display area (for example, the middle symbol display area 208b) is displayed. If the symbol display area that is variably displayed (reach state), that is, if the symbol display area that is variably displayed stops displaying a specific symbol (the symbol that is equal to the symbol display area that is stopped), the predetermined jackpot symbol This is a state in which the combination (“decorative symbol combination 1” or “decorative symbol combination 2” shown in FIG. 55B) is stopped and displayed. Super reach is a type of reach that improves the production effect by adding special variation display to normal reach. In this embodiment, super reach (SP reach) A, super reach (SP reach) B, battle A and battle B are prepared. That is, both Battle A and Battle B are effects accompanied by super reach.

  In addition, long reach, normal reverse reach, double line reach, and the like are known as super reach, and special reach such as special multi-line reach, full rotation reach, special full rotation reach, and the like are also known. In the present specification, the term “reach” means a variation of the decorative pattern including normal reach, super reach, and special reach. This reach is an effect of notifying the player after the success / failure determination and notifying the result of the success / failure determination that the result of the special determination's success / failure determination (lottery) will be the winning determination result. Thus, whether or not to perform reach is determined after determining whether or not to reach. In the case of no reach, the fluctuation time of the special figure is relatively short, in the super reach, the fluctuation time of the special figure is relatively long, and in the normal reach, the fluctuation time of the special figure is the time between no reach and the super reach.

Further, “-” shown in FIG. 59 (d) represents a prohibition process, and represents that the effect mode is not originally performed. In other words, if the actual gaming state is different from the default gaming state of the variable time selection table, if the actual gaming state has a performance mode that matches the gaming state, The production is executed, but when the prohibition process is applied in the actual gaming state, the production is executed using the production mode of the default gaming state in the table for selecting the variation time instead.
Here, the prohibition process in the present embodiment will be described in detail.

  First, as a premise, the gaming state, the effect display, and the variation time are in a correspondence relationship in principle. However, since the table for selecting the variation time or the variation time (here, the table set and the tables 1 to 5 correspond to each other, hereinafter simply referred to as a table) is determined prior to the determination of the gaming state. There may occur a case where the variation time or the table does not correspond to the gaming state or the effect display. That is, a special state occurs. At this time, there may be an effect that is not supposed to be performed in the game state and the effect display. The performance time of the production that should not be performed originally is a time during which a prohibition is applied as a variation time corresponding to the gaming state. For example, in the case of losing production, basically, only the combination of different decorative designs is stopped,

There is no problem even if there is a difference in time, and conversely, the difference in time may be a notification of a special state using the player's uncomfortable feeling. Moreover, in the case of reach production, the reach production used in another game state can be performed. In the present embodiment, the same kind of production is performed visually with or without electric support. For example, a reach B that does not appear originally may appear. Even in this case, there is no sense of incongruity of the player as an effect, but on the other hand, there may be a sense of incongruity in that it appears in a gaming state that does not originally appear.

In the present embodiment, although the variation time is the same depending on whether the special figure high probability state or the special figure low probability state, the effect mode in the decorative symbol display device 208 is not prohibited or not processed. May be provided and the production mode may be different.
FIG. 60A is a diagram for explaining the table set 1.

The table set 1 is used when shifting to the probability changing state after the end of the big hit game. After the big hit, until the 99th symbol variation display, the table 3 for the special symbol high probability common symbol high probability state is used, and in the symbol variation display of the 100th symbol, that is, the symbol variation display in the probability variation state and the last electric support state. Table 5 is used. That is, the table 5 is used in the state immediately before the fall when the player's advantage is the second advantage last. When the 101st symbol variation display is started, the state is shifted to the non-probable change state and the non-electric support state, and the table 1 for the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state is used.
FIG. 60B is a diagram for explaining the table set 2.

  The table set 2 is used when shifting to the electric support state in the non-probable change state after the big hit game is over. After the big hit, until the 49th symbol variation display, the table 2 for the special symbol low probability normal symbol high probability state is used. In the 50th symbol variation display, that is, the symbol variation display at the end of the electric support state, the table 4 Is used. That is, the table 4 is used in the state immediately before the fall when the player's advantage is the first advantage. Note that the above-described second advantage is higher for the player than the first advantage. When the 51st symbol variation display is started, the state is shifted to the non-electric support state, and the table 1 for the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state is used.

  Tables 1 to 5 show a table for determining the fluctuation time of the symbol variation display for which the big hit symbol is stopped, that is, the symbol variation display for which the big hit symbol is displayed, A table for determination is prepared. In the table for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is lost, a plurality of types are prepared according to the number of suspensions when the variation time is determined. In this embodiment, the variation time is determined based on the number of holdings of one of the special figures 1 and 2 (here, special figure 1). The variation time may be determined based on the number. In addition, although a common table is used in the special figure 1 and the special figure 2, the tables used in the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 may be divided.

  For the determination of the variation time, a random number value for special figure variation time determination (a possible numerical range is 0 to 65535) among the random values for one set previously acquired from the reserved storage unit of the RAM 308 is used.

  FIG. 60C to FIG. 60E show the table 1. In these FIG. 60 (c) to FIG. 60 (e), an effect mode in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) shown in FIG. 59 (d) is also shown. Shown for reference.

FIG. 60 (c) is a diagram showing a table 1 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is a big hit.

  The super shortened big hit of the timer number 1 (1 second) is selected only with a very low probability of 1/65536, and is almost the big hit of the super reach system. That is, the reach A big hit of timer number 7 (35 seconds) is selected with a probability of 19999/65536, and the reach B big hit of timer number 9 (65 seconds) is selected with a probability of 45536/65536.

  FIG. 60 (d) is a diagram showing the table 1 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is lost when the number of holdings of the special diagram 1 is 4, and FIG. It is a figure which shows the table 1 for determining the fluctuation | variation time of the symbol fluctuation | variation display which becomes lost when the holding | holding number of 1 is 0-3.

  In the ordinary low probability state (during non-electric support), the special figure 1 almost fluctuates (the fluctuation of the special figure 2 has a low probability). Determine the variation time. Even when the special figure 1 changes substantially (for example, 99%), the fluctuation time may be determined based on the number of holdings in the special figure 1.

  Note that even if the number of holds in the special figure 1 is “0” and the first special figure starting port 230 has won a prize, the number of holds in the special figure 1 once becomes “1”.

  In the table used when the number of holds in FIG. 1 shown in FIG. 60 (d) is 4, the deviation from the shortening of timer number 3 (5 seconds) is selected with a fairly high probability (62000/65536), and the hold High-speed digestion is achieved.

  On the other hand, in the table used when the number of holds in FIG. 1 is 0 to 3 shown in FIG. 60 (e), the normal deviation of the timer number 4 (10 seconds) is selected with high probability (55000/65536). The

  FIG. 61A to FIG. 61C are diagrams showing the table 2. In these FIG. 61 (a) to FIG. 61 (c), an effect mode in the special figure low probability normal figure high / low probability state performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) also shown in FIG. 59 (d). Shown for reference.

  FIG. 61 (a) is a diagram showing a table 2 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is a big hit.

  The super shortened big hit of timer number 1 (1 second) is selected only with a low probability of 500/65536, and in many cases it is a big hit of a super reach with a battle. That is, the battle effect is not performed in the usual low probability state, but the battle effect may be performed in the usual high probability state.

  FIG. 61 (b) is a diagram showing the table 2 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is lost when the number of holdings in FIG. 2 is 3 or 4, and FIG. It is a figure which shows the table 2 for determining the fluctuation | variation time of the symbol fluctuation | variation display which becomes lost when the pending | holding number of special figure 2 is 1 or 2. FIG.

  In the normal figure high probability state (during electric support), the special figure 2 fluctuates substantially. Therefore, in the table 2 of the present embodiment, the fluctuation time is determined based on the number of holdings in the special figure 2.

  Further, even when the second figure drawing start port 232 wins in the state where the number of reserved figures in the special figure 2 is “0”, the number of reserved figures in the special figure 2 once becomes “1”.

  In the table used when the number of holds in Fig. 2 is 3 or 4 shown in Fig. 61 (b), it is selected with a very high probability (63000/65536) that the super-shortage of timer number 2 (2 seconds) is lost. And high-speed digestion on hold is achieved.

  On the other hand, in the table used when the number of holds in FIG. 2 is 0 to 2 shown in FIG. 61 (c), Battle Gaseori 1 with timer number 4 (10 seconds) is selected with high probability (64150/65536). Is done. In the usual high probability state, in the case of losing, there is a case where an effect is given that says that it is likely to develop into a super reach with a battle.

  FIG. 61D to FIG. 61F are diagrams showing the table 3. In these FIG. 61 (d) to FIG. 61 (f), the effect modes in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) shown in FIG. 59 (d) are also shown. Shown for reference.

  FIG. 61 (d) is a diagram showing a table 3 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is a big hit.

  In the special figure high probability state, even if it is a big hit, a super shortened big hit of timer number 1 (1 second) is selected with a considerable probability (30000/65536), and the rest will be a battle of timer number 7 (35 seconds) It will be a big hit with the accompanying super reach.

  FIG. 61 (e) is a diagram showing the table 3 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is lost when the number of holds in the special diagram 2 is 4, and FIG. 61 (f) is a special diagram. It is a figure which shows the table 3 for determining the fluctuation | variation time of the symbol fluctuation | variation display which becomes lost when the holding | holding number of 2 is 1-3.

  In the table used when the number of holds in FIG. 2 is 4 shown in FIG. 61 (e), the super-shortening of timer number 2 (2 seconds) is selected with a fairly high probability (63000/65536). High-speed digestion on hold is achieved. Further, in addition to the battle gasase tilt 1 of the timer number 4 (10 seconds), the battle A defeat of the timer number 6 (30 seconds) may be selected.

  On the other hand, in the table used when the number of holds in FIG. 2 is 0 to 3 shown in FIG. 61 (f), Battle Gaseori 1 with timer number 4 (10 seconds) is selected with high probability (62500/65536). In some cases, a battle A loss of timer number 6 (30 seconds) is also selected.

  FIG. 62A is a diagram showing the table 4 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display to be a big hit, and FIG. 62B is the variation time of the symbol variation display that is lost regardless of the number of holds. It is a figure which shows the table 4 for determining. In the diagrams showing these tables 4, the effect mode in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) also shown in FIG. 59 (d) is shown for reference. Yes.

  As described above, the table 4 is a table for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display at the end of the electric support state after shifting to the electric support state in the non-probable change state.

  In the big hit symbol variation display shown in FIG. 62A, a longer variation time is always selected, and the decorative symbol display device 208 performs super reach with a battle. On the other hand, in the loss symbol variation display shown in FIG. 62 (b), the battle gasase tilt 2 with the timer number 5 (12 seconds) is always selected. As a result, if it develops into a battle production, it will be a big hit. Therefore, the interest of the game is easily improved by Battle Gase Aori 2.

  FIG. 62 (c) is a diagram showing the table 5 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is a big hit, and FIG. 62 (b) is the variation time of the symbol variation display that is lost regardless of the number of holds. It is a figure which shows the table 5 for determining. The tables showing these tables 5 show, for reference, effects in the special figure high probability common figure high probability state performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) shown in FIG. 59 (d). Yes.

  As described above, the table 5 is a table for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display in the probability variation state and the power support state last after the transition to the probability variation state and the power support state.

  In the big hit symbol variation display shown in FIG. 62 (c), a longer variation time is always selected, and in the decorative symbol display device 208, battle A victory of timer number 7 (35 seconds) is always selected. On the other hand, in the case of the loss symbol variation display shown in FIG. 62 (d), the battle gasase tilt 2 with the timer number 5 (12 seconds) is always selected. As a result, even if it develops into a battle production here, the big hit is confirmed, and the interest of the game is likely to be improved by the battle gasase 2.

  In the present embodiment, there may be an effect that can be selected only by the table 3 or the table 5 used in the table set 1, or an effect that can be selected only by the table 2 or the table 4 used in the table set 2. There may be.

  To summarize the above explanation, in FIG. 1, winning special figure A or special figure B corresponds to an example of establishment of the second game condition. In FIG. 2, winning the big hit corresponds to an example of establishment of the second game condition. In other words, whether the special figure 1 or the special figure 2 is won, winning the 15R jackpot corresponds to an example of establishment of the second game condition. When the second game condition is satisfied, the 15th round is awarded as a big hit game. The fifteenth round is a round in which the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) is only opened, and when the second variable winning opening 235 is won, the game shifts to a probable change state after the big hit game. Although winning in the second variable winning opening 235 corresponds to an example of establishment of a third gaming condition (in the following description, sometimes referred to as “first condition”), the second variable winning opening 235 For example, if the gaming machine is opened from the first round, the second gaming condition is established by winning a big hit. That is, the second game condition is a precondition for establishing the third game condition, and the third game condition is not established before the second game condition is established, This is a condition that can be satisfied after the game condition is satisfied. In other words, the third game condition is a condition that is more likely to be established after the second game condition is established than before the second game condition is established.

  In the special figure 1, winning the special figure C or the special figure D corresponds to an example of establishment of the first game condition.

  When the second game condition is satisfied and the third game condition (or the first condition) is also satisfied, after the big hit game, 100 symbol variation displays are performed (in the first period). Equivalent), transition to a promiscuous state and an electric support state (corresponding to an example of the second gaming state), and use of the table set 1 (corresponding to an example of the second group) shown in FIG. 60 (a) until the next big hit Is done.

In this embodiment, the probability variation state continues only 100 times. However, the probability variation state may be repeated 80 times, for example, by increasing the type of jackpot symbol (hit type) or by lottery. There may be 150 cases. Further, the number of continuations of the electric support state in the probability variation state may be changed by a big hit symbol or the like or by lottery. For example, if a big hit symbol is a big hit, the probability variation state has a continuation count of 100, while the power support state has a continuation count of 50 times. Any support state may be such that the number of continuations is 100 times. Further, the falling lottery may be performed every time the symbol variation display is performed, and when the falling lottery is won, the probability variation state may be terminated.

  FIG. 63A is a time chart showing an example in which the second game condition is satisfied and the third game condition (or the first condition) is also satisfied. In FIG. 63, time elapses from left to right.

  On the other hand, if the second game condition is satisfied but the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied, the game shifts to the electric support state after the big hit game, but remains in an uncertain change state. Yes (corresponds to an example of the first gaming state). However, since the second game condition is satisfied, the table set 1 (corresponding to an example of the second group) shown in FIG. 60A is used until the next big hit. The table set 1 corresponding to an example of the second group is a table set used when the second game condition is satisfied. Here, the electric support state (first game state) is maintained while the symbol variation display is performed 50 times (corresponding to the second period) after the big hit game. In this embodiment, the electric support state continues only 50 times in the uncertain change state, but the number of times of the electric support state continues 30 times by increasing the type of jackpot symbol (big hit type) or by lottery etc. There may be a case of 70 times, or a case of 120 times. Further, a falling lottery may be performed every time the symbol variation display is performed, and the electric support state may be terminated when the falling lottery is won.

  FIG. 63 (b) is a time chart showing an example in which the second game condition is satisfied and the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied.

  The second gaming state and the first gaming state are distinguished by whether or not they are in a promiscuous state regardless of whether they are in the electric support state (short-time state) or not. The correspondence relationship with the gaming state to be changed may be changed so as to be distinguished depending on whether or not it is in the electric support state, regardless of whether or not it is in the probability variation state. That is, if it is an electric support state, whether it is a probability change state or a non-probability change state, it is set as the second gaming state, and if it is a probability change state or a non-probability change state, it is the first case if it is a non-electric support state. It is good also as a game state. In any case, the second gaming state is a gaming state that is more advantageous for the player than the first gaming state. In addition, the following examples are given as the first gaming state and the second gaming state. For example, the non-probability change state and the non-electric support state can be set as the first gaming state, and the probability change state and the electric support state can be set as the second game state. Also, the non-probability change state and the electric support state can be set as the first game state, and the probability change state and the electric support state can be set as the second game state. Further, the non-probability change state and the non-electric support state can be set as the first game state, and the non-probability change state and the electric support state can be set as the second game state. Further, the non-probability and non-electric support state can be set as the first gaming state, and the probability change state and the non-electric support state can be set as the second gaming state. Further, the probability change state and the non-electric support state can be set as the first game state, and the probability change state and the electric support state can be set as the second game state. Furthermore, the first game state and the second game state can also be applied to the following cases. For example, the first gaming state is a non-probability change state and the electric support state and the electric support state is low, and the second game state is the non-probability change state and the electric support state and the electric support state is high. It can be in a gaming state. In addition, a game state in which the number of continuations of the electric support state in the probability change state and the electric support state is small is set as the first game state, and a game state in the probability change state and the electric support state in which the electric support state is continued frequently is the second game state. It can also be.

  When the first game condition is satisfied, the electric support state corresponding to an example of the first game state is displayed while the symbol variation display is performed 50 times after the big hit game (corresponding to an example of the second period). The table set 2 (corresponding to an example of the first group) shown in FIG. 60 (b) is used until the next big hit. The table set 2 corresponding to an example of the first group is a table set used when the first game condition is satisfied.

  FIG. 63 (c) is a time chart showing an example when the first game condition is satisfied.

  Here, when the second game condition is satisfied, if the player launches a game ball aiming at the second variable winning opening 235 in the 15th round, in most cases, the third game condition (or The first condition) can be established. However, if the player does not know or forgets that he must aim for the second variable prize opening 235 in the 15th round, the third game condition (or the first condition) ) Is not established, the player expects to shift to a probable state after the big hit game by winning the 15R big hit or entering the 15th round. However, if there is no winning in the second variable winning opening 235, the third game condition (or the first condition) is not established, and the state does not shift to the probability changing state. In the present embodiment, when the transition is made to the probability variation state, the electrical support state is maintained during the 100 symbol variation display (first period), and when the transition to the probability variation state is not performed, the transition is made to the electrical support state. Even in this case, the electric support state is maintained only during 50 symbol variation displays (second period). On the other hand, if the 15R jackpot is won, the table set 1 regardless of whether or not the second variable prize opening 235 has been won (the third game condition (or the first condition) is established / not established). Is selected.

  As shown in FIGS. 63 (a) and (b), in the table set 1, the table 99 is used for the first 99 symbol variation displays after the end of the big hit game. For this reason, in the case of losing in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state, if the special figure 2 hold is full, in most cases, it will be a super-shortened lose and the hold will be digested at high speed. If the hold is not full, in most cases, the decorative symbol display device 208 performs the battle gaze tilt 1 that does not develop into the reach state. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 63 (b), the special symbol low probability normal figure high probability state is displayed even in the 50th symbol variation display after the big hit game when the second variable prize opening 235 has not been won. 59 (d) and 61, from FIG. 59 (d) and FIG. 61, if the special figure 2 hold is full, in most cases, it will be a super shortened loss, and if the special figure 2 hold is not full, most In this case, the effect of Battle Gase Aori 1 is performed on the decorative symbol display device 208. As described above, the table set 1 is used in common regardless of whether or not the second variable winning opening 235 is won (the third game condition (or the first condition) is established / not established). Thus, a player who has confirmed that he has won the 15R jackpot or entered the 15th round will receive the second variable prize opening 235 even if the player has not won the second variable prize opening 235. Just like when you win a prize, you can enjoy the game.

  On the other hand, when the special figure C or the special figure D is won in the special figure 1 (when the first game condition is satisfied), the table set 2 is selected. Some players are delighted only by winning the jackpot and overlook whether they win the 15R jackpot or the 14R jackpot. In particular, if the number of rounds is not significantly different from 15R and 14R as in this embodiment, it tends to be overlooked. As shown in FIG. 63 (c), in the table set 2, the table 49 is used for the first 49 times after the big hit game ends. For this reason, in the case of a loss in the special figure low-probability high-probability state, if the special figure 2 hold is full, in most cases it will be a super-shortened lose and the hold will be digested at high speed. If the hold is not full, in most cases, the decorative symbol display device 208 performs the battle gaze tilt 1 that does not develop into the reach state. That is, in the table 3 in the table set 1 and the table 2 in the table set 2, many of the same variation times are used as the variation times selected in the case of the loss. Here, only the fluctuation time with the highest selection probability may be shared. Strictly speaking, the 60 second variation time of the timer number 8 that is not selected in the table 3 in the table set 1 can be selected in the table 2 in the table set 2. Further, only the fluctuation time with the highest selection probability may be shared. Also, the same variation time is used in Table 3 and Table 2 for the variation time selected in the case of winning. Again, only the fluctuation time with the highest selection probability may be shared. Strictly speaking, in table set 1

The 65 second variation time of the timer number 9 that is not selected in the table 3 can be selected in the table 2 in the table set 2. As described above, the one or more variation times included in the table set 1 (second group) are the same variation time as the variation time of at least a part of the variation times included in the table set 2 (first group). is there. In this way, even if the player who missed whether he won the 15R jackpot or the 14R jackpot, the game would be the same regardless of whether it was a 15R jackpot or a 14R jackpot. Can have fun.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 63 (c), in the table set 2, the table 4 is used in the 50th symbol variation display after the end of the big hit game. For this reason, in the case of losing, the effect of the battle gasase tilt 2 that does not develop into the reach state is performed in the decorative symbol display device 208, which is not much different from the case where the table 3 is used. In Table 4, instead of timer number 5, timer number 4 that is highly likely to be selected in table 3 may be selected 100%. That is, the same variation time may be easily selected. By doing so, it may be possible to prevent the player from feeling uncomfortable with the variation time. That is, by using similar or the same variation time, even if the relationship between the gaming state and the table for selecting the variation time becomes irregular, it prevents the player from feeling uncomfortable. You may be able to.

  However, in the table 3 in the table set 1, the timer number 6 which is a kind of super reach loss can also be selected. As described above, the table 4 in the table set 2 always has a big hit when it develops to reach presentation. Therefore, if the reach presentation is performed at the 50th symbol variation display after the big hit game ends, A player who thinks that 2 is used may feel uncomfortable and may notice that the table set 1 is being used. In addition, there may be a case where the entertainment of the game can be improved by using the fact that the relationship between the gaming state and the table for selecting the variation time is irregular.

  It should be noted that Table 3 and Table 2 are completely the same table, that is, a table (Table 3) that is used for selecting the variation time of the symbol variation display for the first first number of times (here, 99 times) in the probability variation state after the big hit game ends. ) And the table (table 2) used in the variation time selection of the symbol variation display of the first second number of times (here 49 times) in the non-probability variation state after the big hit game is ended as a common table, You may make it not understand in the change time or the production according to the change time. In addition, even if the variation time is different, the effect pattern on the decorative symbol display device 208 may be the same so that it cannot be understood.

  In addition, the table 3 and the table used in the variation time selection of the symbol variation display at the third number of times (here, the 50th time) in the electric support state after the end of the big hit game, that is, from the electric support state to the non-electric support state. Is different from the table 4 used in the state immediately before falling, whether or not a short variation time (in this case, timer number 1 or timer number 2) can be selected. On the contrary, a short variation time may not be selected in the table 3 as well.

  Furthermore, although the table used for selecting the variation time of the symbol variation display of the first second number of times (here 49 times) in the probability variation state after the end of the big hit game is the table 3, the table number 1 is the third number of times. The table used for selecting the variation time for the first (50th in this case) symbol variation display is the table 4 used immediately before the fall from the electric support state to the non-electric support state in the table set 2, and the following number of times The table used for selecting the variation time of the symbol variation display of the first number from the first (here 51-99) is also Table 3, and the fourth number (here 100th) in the probability variation state after the big hit game is over. ) Symbol variation display variation time selection

The table used in the above, that is, the table used in the state immediately before falling from the probability variation state to the non-probability variation state is the table 5, and the table used for the third number of times after the big hit game (here, the 50th), A table common to the table set 2 (the same table) may be used.

  As for the first time and the second time, which are common times, as a modification example, only the reach time may be shared, or only the outlier time may be shared (also in the following description) the same). Further, a time that exists only in one group (table set) may exist only in the other group (table set), or may exist in both groups (table set 1 and table set 2). You may make it (it is the same also in the following description).

  In addition, here, the second gaming state is a probabilistic state and an electric support state, and the first gaming state is a non-probable state and an electric support state, but this is not a limitation (in the following description) The same). That is, it may be in a state in which the presence or absence of probability change, the presence or absence of electric support (short time), the so-called number of STs or the difference in the number of electric support, etc. are arbitrarily combined. Further, a combination of the probability variation state / electric support state and the non-probability variation state / non-electric support state, or the combination of the probability variation state / electric support state / non-probability variation state / electric support state may be set as the second gaming state. The first gaming state may be set. In other words, the second gaming state or the first gaming state may be constituted by a plurality of gaming states including state transition.

  As described above, in both the special figure 2 related lottery process (step S229) and the special figure 1 related lottery process (step S231), the variation time in the special figure symbol variation is determined.

  In step S233, which is performed following the special drawing 1 related lottery process in step S231, a command setting transmission process is performed, and various commands are transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400. Note that the output schedule information transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 is composed of 16 bits in the present embodiment, bit 15 is strobe information (indicating that data is set when ON), bit 11 -14 are command types (in this embodiment, basic command, symbol variation start command, symbol variation stop command, winning effect start command, end effect start command, per round number designation command, power recovery command, RAM clear command, special figure. Bits 0 to 10 are constituted by command data (predetermined information corresponding to the command type).

  Specifically, the strobe information is turned on and off in the command transmission process described above. If the command type is a symbol variation start command, the command data includes information indicating the special symbol stop symbol, information indicating the control state (information indicating the setting state of the time reduction flag and the probability variation flag), and the special symbol variation time. In the case of a symbol variation stop command, information indicating a special symbol stop symbol (result of determining a special symbol), information indicating a control state, and the like, a winning effect start command and an end effect start are included. In the case of a command, information indicating a control state is included, and in the case of a per-round number designation command, information indicating a control state, a per-round number, and the like are included. When the command type indicates a basic command, the device information in the command data, the presence / absence of winning at the first special figure starting port 230, the presence / absence of winning at the second special figure starting port 232, the first variable winning port 234 Including the presence or absence of a prize.

  In the general command rotation start setting transmission process described above, information representing the special figure stop symbol (special figure determination result), information representing the control state, and information representing the special figure variation time stored in the RAM 308 as command data. The information indicating the number of the first special figure variable game or the second special figure variable game that is on hold is set.

  In the general command rotation stop setting transmission process described above, information indicating the special figure stop symbol (special figure determination result), information indicating the control state, and the like stored in the RAM 308 is set in the command data.

  In the above-described general command winning effect start setting transmission process, the command data includes the effect control information and the control state that are stored in the RAM 308 and are output to the decorative symbol display device 208, various lamps 418, and the speaker 120 during the winning effect period. Information indicating the number of the first special figure variable game or the second special figure variable game that is held is set. The first sub control unit 400 that has received the winning effect start command transmits a winning effect control command to the second sub control unit 500 based on the winning effect start command. The second sub-control unit 500 that has received the winning effect control command causes the decorative symbol display device 208 to display an image for notifying the player that the big hit game is started for a predetermined opening effect period (for example, 3 seconds), The jackpot game starts.

  In the above-described general command end effect start setting transmission process, the command data includes the effect control information and the control state stored in the RAM 308 and output to the decorative symbol display device 208, various lamps 418, and the speaker 120 during the effect standby period. Information indicating the number of the first special figure variable game or the second special figure variable game that is held is set. The first sub control unit 400 that has received the end effect start command transmits an end effect control command to the second sub control unit 500 based on the end effect start command. Receiving the end effect control command, the second sub-control unit 500 causes the decorative symbol display device 208 to display an image for informing the player that the big hit is to be ended for a predetermined end effect period (for example, 3 seconds). finish.

  In the general command big prize opening release transmission process described above, information indicating the number of winning rounds stored in the RAM 308, the current number of rounds, information indicating the control state, etc. is set in the command data. In the above-described general command big prize opening closing setting transmission process, the command data, the current round number stored in the RAM 308, information indicating the control state, the first special figure variation game or the second special figure variation held. Information indicating the number of games is set.

  Also, general command special figure hold increase processing is performed. In this general command special figure hold increase processing, special figure identification information (information showing special figure 1 or special figure 2) stored in the transmission information storage area of the RAM 308 in the command data of the special figure hold increase command, the control state And information on the special figure 1 or the special figure 2 determined in advance.

  Further, general command usual figure hold increase processing is also performed. In this general command usual figure hold increase process, information indicating a control state is set in the command data of the general figure hold increase command. In addition, the main control unit 300 also transmits to the first sub-control unit 400 a general map change start command indicating that the normal map display has started (or is) as a general command-related command. Note that the main control unit 300 to the first sub-control unit 400 start (do) the usual figure change stop command indicating that the usual change display has stopped (do), or the pair of blade members 2321. An electric chew opening start command indicating that, or an electric chew closing command indicating that the pair of blade members 2321 are closed (to do) may be transmitted.

  In the first sub-control unit 400, it is possible to determine the production control according to the change of the game control in the main control unit 300 by the command type included in the received output schedule information, and it is included in the output schedule information. Based on the information of the command data, the contents of effect control can be determined. In addition, the first sub-control unit 400 acquires the number of remaining rounds until all the rounds are completed based on the number of rounds included in the command and the current number of rounds.

  In this command setting transmission process, a command is also sent to the payout control unit 600 shown in FIG.

I believe. The output schedule information and the payout request information output to the payout control unit 600 are composed of 1 byte, strobe information (indicating that data is set when turned on) in bit 7, and power-on information in bit 6. (In the case of ON, it indicates that this is the first command transmission after power-on), the current processing type (0-3) for encryption in bits 4-5, and the encrypted processing in bits 0-3 The number of payout requests is indicated.

  Next, in the main control unit timer interrupt process shown in FIG. 57, an external output signal setting process (step S235) is performed. In this external output signal setting process, the game information stored in the RAM 308 is output to the information input circuit 350 separate from the pachinko machine 100 via the information output circuit 336.

  In step S237, device monitoring processing is performed. In this device monitoring process, the signal states of the various sensors stored in the signal state storage area in the above-described step 205 are read, and the presence or absence of a glass frame opening error or a bottom pan full error is monitored. When the lower pan full error is detected, device information indicating whether or not there is a glass frame opening error or lower pan full error is set in the transmission information to be transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400. 54 is driven to control the opening and closing of the second special figure starting port 232 and the first variable winning port 234, and the normal symbol display device via the drive circuits 324, 326, and 330. Display data to be output to 210, first special figure display device 212, second special figure display device 214, various status display units 328, and the like is set in the output port of I / O 310. Further, the output schedule information set in the payout request number transmission process (step S219) is output to the first sub-control unit 400 via the output port of the I / O 310.

  In step S239, it is monitored whether or not the low voltage signal is on in order to determine whether or not a power supply interruption (power interruption) has been detected. Then, when the low voltage signal is off (when the power supply cutoff is not detected), the process proceeds to step S241. When the low voltage signal is on (when the power supply cutoff is detected), the process proceeds to step S243.

  In step S241, timer interrupt end processing is performed. In this timer interrupt end process, the value of each register temporarily saved in step S201 is set in each original register, interrupt permission is set, etc., and then the main control part main process shown in FIG. Return.

On the other hand, in step S243, a specific variable or stack pointer for returning to the power-off state at the time of power recovery is saved as a return data in a predetermined area of the RAM 308, and processing at power-off such as initialization of an input / output port is performed. Then, the process returns to the main process of the main control unit shown in FIG.
<Processing of First Sub-Control Unit 400>

  The process of the first sub control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5A is a flowchart of main processing executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400.

  First, in step S301 in FIG. 9A, various initial settings are performed. When the power is turned on, the initial setting in step S301 is executed. In this initial setting, initial setting of the I / O port 410 shown in FIG. 54, initialization processing of a storage area in the RAM 408, and the like are performed.

In step S303, it is determined whether or not the timer variable is 10 or more. This process is repeated until the timer variable becomes 10, and when the timer variable becomes 10 or more, the process proceeds to step S305.
In step S305, 0 is substituted into the timer variable.

  In step S307, command processing is performed. The CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400 determines whether a command has been received from the main control unit 300. In this command processing, power recovery sub-side flag setting processing and the like are performed, and details will be described later.

  In step S309, effect control processing is performed. For example, when there is a new command in S307, processing such as reading effect data corresponding to the command from the ROM 406 is performed, and when update of the effect data is necessary, effect data update processing is performed. In this effect control process, a start-side winning sub-side pre-reading notice execution process, a change start sub-side notice execution process, and a power recovery sub-side flag setting process are also performed. Each of these processes will be described later in detail.

  In step S311, when pressing of the chance button 136 shown in FIG. 51 is detected, processing for changing the effect data updated in step S309 to effect data corresponding to the pressing of the chance button 136 is performed.

  In step S313, if there is a command to the sound source IC 416 in the effect data read in S309, this command is output to the sound source IC 416.

  In step S315, if there is a command to the drive circuit 420 for the various lamps 418 in the effect data read in S309, this command is output to the drive circuit 420.

  In step S319, when there is a control command to be transmitted to the second sub-control unit 500 in the effect data read in S309, the control command is set to be output, and the process returns to S303.

  Next, the command reception interrupt process of the first sub control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 64B is a flowchart of command reception interrupt processing of the first sub control unit 400. This command reception interrupt process is a process executed when the first sub-control unit 400 detects a strobe signal output from the main control unit 300. In step S331 of the command reception interrupt process, the command output from the main control unit 300 is stored as an unprocessed command in the command storage area provided in the RAM 408, and the command reception interrupt process is terminated.

  Next, the first sub control unit timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 64C is a flowchart of the timer interrupt process of the first sub control unit 400. The first sub-control unit 400 includes a hardware timer that generates a timer interrupt at a predetermined cycle (in this embodiment, once every 2 ms), and the timer interrupt process is performed by using the timer interrupt as a trigger. Execute in the cycle.

  In step S341 of the first sub control unit timer interrupt process, 1 is added to the value of the timer variable storage area of the RAM 408 described in step S303 in the first sub control unit main process shown in FIG. Is stored in the timer variable storage area. Therefore, in step S303, the value of the timer variable is determined to be 10 or more every 20 ms (2 ms × 10).

In step S343 of the first sub control unit timer interrupt process, a control command is transmitted to the second sub control unit 500 set in step S319, an effect random number value is updated, and the like. Ends.
<Processing of Second Sub-Control Unit 500>

  The second sub control unit 500 is based on the control command transmitted from the first sub control unit 400.

Then, control of the decorative symbol display device 208 is executed. The second sub-control unit 500 is connected to an image control unit that displays an image on the decorative symbol display device 208. This image control unit has a VRAM (video RAM) and a GPU (graphics processing unit). The GPU reads the picture information and the like stored in the ROM of the second sub-control unit 500 based on the signal from the CPU of the second sub-control unit 500, and uses the display area (work area) of the VRAM to display the display image. The generated image is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208.

  More specifically, the CPU of the second sub control unit 500 first issues an image data transfer instruction. Here, first, the designation of the drawing areas of the display area A and the display area B of the VRAM is swapped. As a result, an image of one frame stored in the display area not designated as the drawing area is displayed on the decorative design display device 208. Next, the CPU sets ROM coordinates (ROM transfer source address), VRAM coordinates (VRAM transfer destination address) and the like in the GPU attribute register based on the position information table and the like, and then images from the ROM to the VRAM. Set an instruction to start data transfer. The GPU transfers the image data from the ROM to the VRAM based on the instruction set in the attribute register. Thereafter, the GPU outputs a transfer end interrupt signal to the CPU.

  Next, it is determined whether or not a transfer end interrupt signal is input from the GPU. If a transfer end interrupt signal is input, parameters are set based on the production scenario configuration table and attribute data. Here, in order to form a display image in the display area A or B of the VRAM based on the image data transferred to the VRAM, the CPU stores information on the image data constituting the display image (VRAM coordinate axes, image size, VRAM coordinates). (Arrangement coordinates, etc.) to the GPU. The GPU sets parameters according to the attribute based on the instruction stored in the attribute register. On the other hand, when the transfer end interrupt signal from the GPU has not been input, it waits for the transfer end interrupt signal to be input.

  Subsequently, a drawing instruction is performed. In this drawing instruction, the CPU instructs the GPU to start drawing an image. The GPU starts drawing an image in the frame buffer in accordance with an instruction from the CPU.

  When a drawing instruction is performed, it is determined whether or not a generation end interrupt signal from the GPU based on the end of image drawing has been input. If the generation end interrupt signal is not input, the generation end interrupt signal is input. When a generation end interrupt signal is input, the scene display counter that is set in a predetermined area of the RAM and counts how many scene images have been generated is incremented (+1) to finish the process. To do.

Further, the second sub control unit 500 also executes control of the shielding device 246 based on the control command transmitted from the first sub control unit 400.
<Special figure look-ahead processing>

  Next, the special figure prefetching process (step S224) in the main controller timer interrupt process shown in FIG. 57 will be described in detail.

  FIG. 65 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing relating to special figure 2 in special figure prefetching processing.

  The CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 refers to the time reduction flag in the RAM 308 and determines whether or not power support is in progress (step S224a). When the time reduction flag is in the off state and the non-electric support is in progress, the process proceeds to step S224i of the processing relating to FIG. 1, and when the time reduction flag is in the on state and the electric support is in progress, the process proceeds to step S224b. . In step S224b,

2. It is determined whether or not there has been a winning at the special figure starting port 232. In this determination, the determination is made by determining whether or not the retention in the retention storage unit of the special map 2 of the RAM 308 has increased. That is, it is determined whether or not there has been a winning at the second special figure starting port 232 that falls within the upper limit number (four in this case) of the reserved storage of the special figure 2. If it is determined in step S224b that there has been a winning (increase in the number of holdings in FIG. 2), the process proceeds to step S224c.

  In step S224c, first, a set of start-up information acquired in the previous winning acceptance process (step S217) is pre-read from the reserved storage unit of FIG. 2 provided in the RAM 308. That is, with the winning of the second special figure starting port 232 as a trigger, the starting information generated based on the winning is prefetched. Therefore, the newest starting information is prefetched before the determination of validity (based on the special figure 2 lottery process) based on the starting information is performed. The CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 that performs this prefetching corresponds to an example of start information prefetching means. In the prefetching here, only the winning portion (holding increment) is prefetched, but all may be prefetched. Note that pre-reading here means that the start information is read first before the validity determination (main lottery), but in the following explanation, the word pre-reading is referred to as the predecessor (result of true / false determination (main lottery)). Sometimes used to mean read.

  In the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300, a pre-determination high probability table having the same content as the content of the high / failure determination table shown in FIG. 58 (c) and a low probability table for success / failure determination shown in FIG. A low probability table for pre-judgment with the same content is prepared. In step S224c, the probability variation flag is referred to, and either one of the high probability table for pre-determination and the low probability table for pre-determination is selected, and the special information of the pre-read start information is selected using the selected table. FIG. 2 Based on the winning random number value, it is determined in advance whether or not the result of the determination is a big hit determination result (a specific determination result). In other words, with the winning of the second special figure starting port 232 as a trigger, it is determined in advance whether or not the winning / failing determination result based on the starting information generated based on the winning becomes the big hit determination result. Therefore, this pre-determination is executed before the determination of success / failure based on the start information (the special drawing 2 related lottery process) is performed, and the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 that performs this pre-determination corresponds to an example of a pre-determination unit. Here, the result determined in advance is treated as a result of prior determination in FIG.

  If the result of the preliminary determination is a big hit determination result, the process proceeds to step S224e. On the other hand, if it is not a big hit determination result, the process proceeds to step S224g.

  In the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300, a special figure prior determination table having the same contents as the special figure determination table shown in FIG. Using the special figure predetermination table, in step S224e, the big hit symbol predetermination is performed based on the big hit special figure 2 random value in the pre-read start information, and in step S224g, the special figure 2 disorder for loss is detected. Based on the numerical value, the losing symbol is determined in advance. The special figure pre-determination in step S224e and step S224g is also executed before the success / failure determination (special figure 2 related lottery process) based on the pre-read start information is performed, and the result of the pre-determination here is the special figure 2 pre-determination result. Are treated as

Subsequent to step S224e or step S224g, step S224h is executed. In the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300, tables having the same contents as the contents of various tables for determining the variation time of the special figure shown in FIGS. Using these tables, in step S224h, the special figure fluctuation time is preliminarily determined based on the special figure 2 fluctuation time determination random value in the pre-read start information. The preliminary determination of the variation time in step S224h is also executed before the determination of whether or not the vehicle is determined (a special drawing 2 related lottery process) based on the pre-read start information. Be treated. Instead of the variation time, the effect mode (variation pattern) in the decorative symbol display device 208 may be determined in advance. Further, the production mode and the variation time may be grouped, and it may be determined in advance which group belongs.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the variation time of the special figure and the effect mode of the decorative symbol display device 208 are associated one-to-one, and the fact that the variation time is selected means that the variation pattern is selected. You can also see it. The CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 that executes step S224h corresponds to an example of a pattern selection unit.

  When the execution of step S224h is completed, the process related to special figure 2 ends, and the process proceeds to the process related to special figure 1.

  FIG. 66 is a flowchart showing the flow of the process related to special figure 1 in the special figure prefetching process.

  The process related to special figure 1 (steps S224i to S224o) is the same as the process related to special figure 2 (steps S224b to S224h), and the description thereof will be omitted. A set of starting information acquired in the previous winning acceptance process (step S217) is pre-read from the holding storage unit, and the special figure 1 pre-determination result, the special figure 1 pre-determination result, and the special figure 1 variable time pre-determination result. Get.

  Special figure 1 or 2 pre-determined result (special figure successful / pre-determined result), special figure 1 or 2 pre-determined result (special figure pre-determined result), and special figure 1 or 2 variation time pre-determined The result (special map variation time preliminary determination result) is stored in the predetermined area of the RAM 308 as the preliminary determination information in the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 in the order of the hold in the predetermined upper limit number. The newly stored pre-determined information (special map rejection pre-determined result, special figure pre-determined result, special figure variation time pre-determined result) is pre-determined as special figure 1 or special figure 2 information. It is included in the command data of the increase command and transmitted from the main control unit 300 to the first sub control unit 400.

  After executing the special figure prefetching process described above, the main control unit 300 executes the special figure related lottery process, and based on the same start information as the prefetched start information targeted in the special figure prefetch process, The determination result, the special figure determination result, and the fluctuation time of the special figure are obtained again.

In the present embodiment, the main control unit 300 obtains the special figure advance determination result and the special figure variation time preliminary determination result, but the main control unit 300 does not obtain these advance determination results, and the pre-read start information. Is included in the command data of the special figure hold increase command and transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400, and the first sub-control unit 400 obtains the special figure advance determination result and the special figure variation time prior determination result as necessary. An aspect may be sufficient.
<Sub-side pre-reading notice execution process at start-up prize>

  Next, the start winning time sub-side prefetching notice execution process executed in the effect control process (step S309) in the first sub control unit main process shown in FIG. 64A will be described in detail.

  FIG. 67 is a flowchart showing the flow of the sub-side pre-reading notice execution process at the time of starting winning a prize.

  The start side winning side pre-reading notice execution process shown in FIG. 67 is an effect control process (step S309) in the first sub-control unit main process that is determined to have received the special figure hold increase command in the command setting process (step S307). ) Is executed. The RAM 408 of the first sub-control unit 400 is also provided with a pre-reading execution flag. First, in step S3091a, it is determined whether or not the pre-reading execution flag is set to on, and is set to on. If so, the process proceeds to step S3091g, and if it remains off, the process proceeds to step S3091b.

  As described above, the command data of the special figure hold increase command includes the special figure pre-determined result, the special figure pre-determined result, and the special figure variation time pre-determined result as information on the pre-determined special figure 1 or special figure 2. Is included. In step S3091b, it is determined whether or not the special figure change time prior determination result included in the special figure hold increase command determined to have been received in the previous command setting process (step S307) is a predetermined change time. If it is not the variation time, the process proceeds to step S3091h, and if it is the predetermined variation time, the process proceeds to step S3091d. The special figure variation time prior determination result included in the special figure hold increase command is divided into special figure 1 and special figure 2 as the preliminary determination information in the preliminary determination result storage area prepared in the RAM 408, and the above predetermined upper limit number. Are stored only in the pending order.

  FIG. 68 (a) is a diagram showing a pending change prefetch notice lottery table used in the non-electric support state, and FIG. 68 (b) is a hold change prefetch notice lottery used in the electric support state. It is a figure which shows a table. Both tables are stored in the ROM 406 of the first sub control unit 400.

  The predetermined fluctuation time here is the fluctuation time defined in the table shown in FIG. 68A in the non-electric support state, and is 30 seconds, 35 seconds, 60 seconds, and 65 seconds. On the other hand, in the case of the electric support state, the fluctuation time is defined in the table shown in FIG. 68 (b), which is 10 seconds, 35 seconds, and 65 seconds. In the table shown in FIG. 68, the effect mode in the decorative symbol display device 208 is also shown.

In the present embodiment, special figure 1 hold display is performed on the left side of the effect display area 208d of the decorative symbol display device 208, and special figure 2 hold display is performed on the right side thereof. These hold displays are displays corresponding to one set of start information stored in the special hold storage unit provided in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300, and the number of hold displays corresponds to the number of holds. In this embodiment, the predetermined display mode (default display mode) in the hold display is a mode in which a round graphic is displayed in a pattern and in one color.
FIG. 68 (c) is a diagram showing a hold display (normal hold) in the default display mode.

  Each time the first sub control unit 400 receives the special figure hold increase command, the first sub control unit 400 transmits a hold increase command to the second sub control unit 500 in step S3091g, which will be described later. Based on the command, the decorative symbol display device 208 is controlled to increase the number of hold displays by one. On the other hand, every time the first sub-control unit 400 receives a symbol variation start command, the first sub-control unit 400 transmits a hold reduction command to the second sub-control unit 500, and the second sub-control unit 500 performs decoration based on the hold reduction command. The symbol display device 208 is controlled to reduce the number of pending displays by one. The hold display may be referred to as a hold icon, and the combination of the first sub control unit 400, the second sub control unit 500, and the decorative symbol display device 208 corresponds to an example of the start hold number notifying unit.

Also, in both the table shown in FIG. 68 (a) and the table shown in FIG. 68 (b), a random number range is defined for each of the hold notice A and the hold notice B. In the present embodiment, the pre-reading notice is performed based on the preliminary determination result made by the main control unit 300. This pre-reading notice is based on the result of the pass / fail determination performed in the special drawing related lottery process before the special figure related lottery process (steps S229 and S231) shown in FIG. This is a notice for the advance notice. In addition, the notification may be made in advance that a predetermined big hit (for example, a big hit advantageous to the player, more specifically, a big hit of 15R) will be announced. “No change” shown in FIGS. 68A and 68B means that the pre-reading notice using the hold display is not executed, and the display form of the hold display is the default display form shown in FIG. 68C. It means that it remains. In addition, “Pending notice A” and “Pending notice B” shown in FIGS. 68A and 68B change the display mode of the hold display from the default display form to a special display form, The pre-reading notice is performed by displaying in the special display mode.

  FIG. 68D is a diagram showing a display mode of the hold notice A, and FIG. 68E is a diagram showing a display mode of the hold notice B.

  The display mode of the hold notice A is a long-length character, and the display form of the hold notice B is a character of the main character. The hold display of these display modes (holding advance notices A and B), which also serves as a pre-reading notice, may be displayed larger than the default display form shown in FIG.

  In step S3091c shown in FIG. 67, a lottery process using the table shown in FIG. The CPU 404 of the first sub-control unit 400 acquires a dedicated random number (possible range is 0 to 99) from the RAM 408 at the timing of executing step S3091c, and based on the acquired dedicated random number, the gaming state (here, the electric support state) Or lottery according to non-electric support status). The lottery here is a lottery triggered by winning a prize at the special drawing start opening (230, 232). When a lottery of whether or not to perform a pre-reading notice and a pre-reading notice are performed, the lottery is selected from a plurality of types of notices. It will be a lottery to select one type of notice mode.

  In the above description, it has been described that the prefetching notice is a notification for notifying that the result of the determination of success / failure will be a big hit, but this prefetching notification will be a big hit even if the result of the determination of success / failure does not become a big hit. It also includes a fake look-ahead notice that makes a false notice. In other words, the pre-reading notice indicates that the result of the success / failure determination may be a big hit, is a prior notice that suggests to the player, or a prior notice that makes the player expect that the result of the success / failure determination will be a big hit. It can be said that there is.

  In this embodiment, if a change in hold occurs and the battle effect is started with the symbol variation display for the hold represented by the hold display changed in hold, the big hit is confirmed.

  68 is a table irrelevant to the number of holds, the notice execution probability and the notice mode selection probability may be changed according to the number of holds.

  In step S3091d executed subsequent to step S3091c, it is determined whether or not the lottery for the pre-reading notice in step S3091c has been won. The winning here is a lottery for whether or not the pre-reading notice can be executed, and means that the pre-reading notice is won. If it is unsuccessful (no pre-reading notice), the process proceeds to step S3091g. If it is successful (pre-reading notice is made), the number of pre-reading notices is set (step S3091e), and the process proceeds to step S3091f. The pre-reading notice based on the lottery using the table shown in FIG. 68 corresponds to an example of the first notice notice. The pre-reading notice based on the lottery using the table shown in FIG. 68 is a prior notice for notifying that the result of the success / failure determination based on the predetermined start information will be a big hit. In this embodiment, the number of executions of the pre-reading notice is set in the symbol variation display unit of one special figure, and here, the same number as the number of holdings is set as the number of executions in the execution number setting area prepared in the RAM 408. . More specifically, in the case of the electric support state, the number of holdings in FIG. 2 is set as the number of executions, and in the case of the non-electric support state, the number of holdings in FIG. 1 is set as the number of executions.

  In step S3091f, the pre-reading execution flag prepared in the RAM 408 is set to ON. The pre-reading execution flag is a flag for determining whether or not the pre-reading advance notice is executed based on the lottery using the table shown in FIG. 68. The state where the pre-reading execution flag is set to ON uses the table shown in FIG. This is a state in which a pre-reading notice based on the lottery is performed. In addition, based on the fact that the pre-reading execution flag is set to OFF, the pre-reading advance notice based on the lottery using the table shown in FIG. 68 is canceled, and the pre-reading execution flag is set to OFF.

No prefetching notice based on the lottery using the table shown in FIG. Next, a hold increase command is transmitted to the second sub-control unit 500 (step S3091g), and this start winning sub-side pre-reading notice execution process is ended.
<Sub-notice execution process at the start of change>

Next, the variation start sub-side notice execution process executed in the effect control process (step S309) in the first sub control unit main process shown in FIG. 64 (a) will be described in detail.
FIG. 69 is a flowchart showing the flow of the sub-notice execution process at the start of change.

  The change start time sub-side notice execution process shown in FIG. 69 is executed in the effect control process (step S309) in the first sub control unit main process determined to have received the symbol change start command in the command setting process (step S307). Is done.

  In step S3092a, it is determined whether the prefetching execution flag prepared in the RAM 408 is set to ON. Here, the state in which the pre-reading execution flag is set to ON is a state in which a pre-reading notice is performed in which the display mode of the hold display is changed based on the lottery using the table shown in FIG. If the prefetching execution flag remains off, the process proceeds to step S3092e. If the prefetching execution flag is set to on, the process proceeds to step S3092b. In step S3092b, 1 is subtracted from the value of the execution count setting area prepared in the RAM 408, and then it is determined whether or not the value of the execution count setting area has become 0 (step S3092c). If the value of the execution count setting area is 0, the process proceeds to step S3092d, and if not, the process proceeds to step S3092e.

  In step S3092d, the prefetching execution flag is set to OFF, and the process proceeds to step S3092e.

  In step S3092e, a normal notice lottery process is performed, and the process proceeds to step S3092f. In this normal notice lottery process, whether or not the normal notice is executed is determined by lottery, and when it is executed, the notice mode is also determined by lottery. The normal notice here is a notice concerning the symbol variation display started by the symbol variation start command received this time. In other words, the result of determining whether or not the symbol is stopped and displayed in the symbol variation display in which the advance notice is given or the special figure informed in the symbol change display in which the announcement is given is the subject of the announcement. The lottery for whether or not the advance notice is executed or the lottery for the notice mode is performed by obtaining a dedicated random number. As the notice mode of the normal notice, display of a predetermined character, sound output, and a notice form of lamp lighting are prepared.

  In step S3092f, a normal notice command is transmitted to the second sub-control unit 500. The decorative symbol display device 208 displays a normal notice based on the normal notice command. When the execution of step S3092f is completed, the change start sub-side notice execution process ends.

The first sub-control unit 400, the second sub-control unit 500, and the decoration that execute the start winning sub-side pre-reading notice execution process shown in FIG. 67 and the variation start sub-side notice execution process shown in FIG. A combination of the symbol display device 208 corresponds to an example of a notice means.
Next, a specific effect example in the pachinko machine of the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 70 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the present embodiment. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 70 (1), “decoration 7”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 3”, which are combinations of the decorative symbols of the loss, are stopped and displayed. Further, the first special figure 1 hold display h11 and the second special figure 1 hold display h12, which indicate the hold of the special figure 1, are both displayed in the default display mode. 70 also shows a first special figure display device 212, a first special figure hold lamp 218, a second special figure display device 214, and a second special figure hold lamp 220.

  In FIG. 70 (2), the hold in FIG. 1 (first hold) is digested and only the first special figure 1 hold display h11 is displayed. In addition, the first special symbol display device 212 shown in FIG. 70 (2) has started the symbol variation display, and the decorative symbol display device 208 has also started the variation symbol display. During the symbol variation display, the first special figure display device 212 repeats blinking in which all of the seven segments are turned on, turned off for a moment, and all of the seven segments are turned on again. Further, at this time, after the hold is digested and the symbol variation display is started, one variation icon corresponding to the symbol variation display may be displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208. The display mode of the fluctuation icon may be the same as or different from the display mode of the digested hold display h11, for example. Even in the case where the suspension of special figure 2 to be described later is digested, the variation icon may be displayed in the same manner.

  It should be noted that the special symbol display device (212, 214) may start the symbol variation of the special symbol and reduce the hold display indicating the suspension of the symbol variation at the same time or substantially simultaneously, or may be performed by the decorative symbol display device 208. The start of the decorative symbol variation display and the decrease of the hold display indicating the hold may be performed simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. Further, after the decorative symbol variation display is started, the hold display may disappear, or after the suspension display disappears first, the decoration symbol variation display may be started. Furthermore, at the three timings of the special symbol variation start timing, the decorative symbol variation display start timing, and the hold display disappear timing, the special symbol variation start timing is simultaneously with other timings. It may be the earliest including. The above also applies to the following specific examples.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 70 (3), during the symbol variation display of the special figure 1 started in FIG. 70 (2), a girl character may be displayed as a normal notice and may be developed to reach. It has been reported.

In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 70 (4), the reach has been developed. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 70 (6), the super reach A effect is continued and the jackpot finalizing effect is displayed.
71 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  In the first special figure display device 212 shown in FIG. 71 (7), the symbol form of the special figure C (see FIG. 55 (a-1)) is stopped and displayed. In addition, on the decorative symbol display device 208, the combination of decorative symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” is stopped and displayed (determined display), and the character display of “big hit” is also displayed. . Some players know that only 14R jackpots were won from the combination of the stop symbol pattern of the first special symbol display device 212 and the decorative symbol display device 208, but the 15R jackpot Some people don't know if they won or won 14R jackpot.

  Eventually, the big hit game is started, and the decorative symbol display device 208 of the 12th round is shown in FIG. 71 (8). During the big hit game, the hold display disappears (hidden). The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 71 (8) has an opening for button effects.

It is displayed. The button effect here is an effect that if the chance button 136 shown in FIG. 51 is pressed and a longest character appears, the player proceeds to the 15th round and has a chance to acquire certainty. Since it is an effect to the last and only 14R jackpot is won, the jackpot game ends in 14 rounds without actually proceeding to 15 rounds.

  In FIG. 71 (9), the 13th round is entered, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the pattern 136 a of the chance button 136, and displays “PUSH” prompting the user to press the chance button 136. . In addition, a remaining time display bar 136b representing the remaining time of the acceptance period for pressing the chance button is also displayed.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 71 (10), the player presses the chance button 136. As a result, an old character appears in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 71 (10), and a character display of “sorry” is also displayed. That is, it is reported that the program does not proceed to the 15th round. The button operation timing and the production start timing based on the operation are earlier in the button operation timing (the same applies to the following specific examples).

  In FIG. 71 (11), the player enters the 14th round, which is the final round. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. In other words, in the jackpot game here, there was no winning in the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) without going to 15 rounds. In this end effect, the hold display is resumed, and the first special figure 1 hold display h11 is restored and displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 71 (12).

Here, the first game condition is established by winning the special figure C, and when the big hit game is ended, the symbol change display is performed 50 times (corresponding to an example of the second period). It shifts to the electric support state with the certain change state. Further, until the next big hit, the table set 2 (corresponding to an example of the first group) shown in FIG. 60B is used.
72 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  In FIG. 72 (13), the hold of the special figure 1 represented by the first special figure 1 hold display h11 shown in FIG. 71 (12) is digested, and the first special figure display device 212 has started the symbol variation display. In the decorative symbol display device 208, the decorative symbol variation display is started. The variation time of the 49 symbol variation displays including this symbol variation display is determined using the table 2 shown in FIGS. 61 (a) to 61 (c). In addition, as shown in FIG. 53, the pachinko machine of the present embodiment is provided with a normal start opening (gate) 228 and a second variable winning opening 235 in the right region, This is a pachinko machine that needs to be right-handed when aiming at the variable winning opening 235 (second attacker). When the 14-round jackpot game is over, the game is shifted to the electric support state, and while the electric support state continues, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a character for prompting a right hand and a remaining number display. The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 72 (13) is also displayed with a character for prompting a right hand strike. Also, the remaining number of times “49 remaining” is displayed. The remaining number of times display represents a period until the player's advantageous state ends. That is, in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 72 (13), it is notified that the electric support state continues for another 49 symbol variation displays.

  During the execution of the symbol variation display started in FIG. 72 (13), the game ball passes through the usual figure starting port (gate) 228, and elected to determine whether or not the usual figure is won. There is a three-ball winning at the second special figure starting port 232.

  In FIG. 72 (14), the suspension of special figure 2 is exhausted, the second special figure display device 214 has started the symbol variation display, and the decorative symbol display device 208 has also started the variation display of the decoration symbol. The symbol variation display here is also a symbol variation display based on Table 2. In addition, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 72 (14) includes a first special figure 2 hold display h21 and a second special figure 2 hold display h22 that represent the remaining hold of the special figure 2, respectively. It is displayed in the default display mode. Furthermore, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 72 (14) also displays a character for urging right-handed and displays the remaining number of times “48 remaining”.

  Even during the execution of the symbol variation display started in FIG. 72 (14), the game ball passes through the usual figure start gate (gate) 228, and the electoration judgment is won, so that the electric chew is released. There are two or more winnings in the second special figure starting port 232, and the special figure 2 hold is full. In addition to the first special figure 2 hold display h21 and the second special figure 2 hold display h22, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 72 (15) has a third special figure 2 hold display h23 and a fourth special display. Each special figure 2 hold display h24 is displayed in the default display mode.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 72 (16), “decoration 0”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 6”, which are combinations of the decorative symbols of the loss, are stopped (determined).

  In FIG. 72 (17), the hold of special figure 2 is digested and the hold display becomes three, the second special figure display device 214 starts the symbol variation display, and the decoration symbol display device 208 also displays the variation display of the decoration symbol. Has been started. The symbol variation display here is also a symbol variation display based on Table 2. In addition, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 72 (17) also displays a character that prompts the user to make a right stroke and displays the remaining number of times “47 remaining”.

In this way, the symbol variation display based on the table 2 is repeatedly performed until the big hit game is started. During the big hit game, since the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, the table 1 is used. In this example, after the big hit game shown in FIG. 71, 48 symbols change display is stopped in all cases, and in FIG. 72 (18), the 49th symbol change display is started after the big hit game ends. ing. This symbol variation display corresponds to the last symbol variation display based on Table 2.
FIG. 73 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 73 (19) does not win even the 49th symbol variation display, and “decoration 0”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 6”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, is stopped. Displayed (confirmed display).

  In FIG. 73 (20), the 50th symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. The variation time of the 50th symbol variation display is determined using the table 4 shown in FIGS. 62 (a) and (b). The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 73 (20) displays “Last”. The character display of “Last” corresponds to an example of the remaining number display of “Remaining 0 times”.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 73 (21), an effect as if developing into a battle effect is performed. That is, in the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c, while the decorative symbol continues to be displayed in a variable manner, a girl character appears in the middle symbol display area 208b, and a notification that "Battle starts when reaching reach" is made. Yes.

In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 73 (22), the first stop is performed, and “decoration 5” is stopped and displayed in the left symbol display area 208a. In the middle symbol display area 208b and the right symbol display area 208c, the decorative symbol variation display continues.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 73 (23), while the decorative symbol continues to be variably displayed in the middle symbol display region 208b, shaking fluctuation occurs in the right symbol display region 208c, and "decoration 4" and "decoration 5" There is an effect that either one of them stops. Here, if “decoration 5” is stopped and displayed in the right symbol display area 208c, a reach state is reached and a battle effect is started. As described above, in the 50th symbol variation display, that is, the symbol variation display based on the table 4, if a battle effect, which is a kind of super reach effect, is started, the big hit is confirmed.

However, in this example, the reach state is not reached, and the decoration symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 73 (24) shows the state where the second stop is performed and “decoration 4” is stopped and displayed in the right symbol display area 208c. Has been. The effects described above in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIGS. 73 (21) to (23) are the effects of the battle gasase tilt 2. In the present embodiment, in the symbol variation display immediately before the fall, an effect encouraging development to a battle effect (super reach) is always executed.
FIG. 74 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG. 73.

  In the 50th symbol variation display in this example, the effect of Battle Gase Aori 2 is performed by the decorative symbol display device 208, and since it is a state immediately before falling, a big hit is expected, but it does not develop into reach, and FIG. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 5, “decoration 5”-“decoration 5”-“decoration 4”, which are combinations of the decorative symbols of the loss, are stopped (determined). The variation time of the 50th symbol variation display is 12 seconds, and even if it is a loss symbol variation, a certain amount of variation time is given compared to the super shortening variation or shortening variation, and the player is in the electric support state. Finally, there are cases where the special figure 2 hold can be full. In this example, one step does not reach the reserved full tank in FIG. 2, and the number of holds is three. The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. Two special figure 2 hold displays h22 and a third special figure 2 hold display h23 are both displayed in the default display mode.

  When the 50th symbol variation display is completed, the gaming state shifts to a non-electric support state. That is, a transition is made from the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state to the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state. This special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal state) continues until the next jackpot game ends.

  In FIG. 74 (26), the 51st symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. From the 51st symbol variation display, the variation time is determined using the table 1 shown in FIGS. 60 (c) to 60 (e). Since the electric support state has ended, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 74 (26) has a character display prompting it to return to the left. The remaining number display is finished and disappears.

  During the execution of the symbol variation display started in FIG. 74 (26), there is a single winning at the first special figure starting port 230, and the special figure 1 hold increases by one. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 74 (27), “decoration 8”-“decoration 5”-“decoration 0”, which are combinations of the decorative symbols of the loss, are stopped (determined). In addition, a first special figure 1 hold display h11 representing the first hold of special figure 1 is displayed.

The pachinko machine of this embodiment is a special figure 2 priority fluctuation machine in which the symbol fluctuation of special figure 2 is executed in preference to the symbol fluctuation of special figure 1, and the first special fluctuation machine shown in FIG. 74 (27). The FIG. 2 hold display h21 is digested first, and then the second special figure 2 hold display h22 is digested. Due to the transition to the non-electric support state, the electric Chu is not released, the special figure 2 hold is not accumulated, and the special figure 2 hold number becomes zero. On the other hand, while the special figure 2 hold is being digested, there is another winning at the first special figure starting port 230, and the special figure 1 has a hold number of two.

  In FIG. 74 (28), the special figure 2 is no longer on hold, the special figure 1 hold is consumed and the hold display becomes one, the first special figure display device 212 starts the symbol variation display, and the decorative symbol display is displayed. In the device 208, the decorative symbol variation display is started. The symbol variation display here is also the symbol variation display based on Table 1, and in the case of a loss, since the suspension of the special diagram 1 is not full, the symbol variation display is almost 10 seconds (timer number 3). .

  During execution of the symbol variation display started in FIG. 74 (28), there is one winning at the first special figure starting port 230, and the special figure 1 holding is increased by one. As shown in FIG. 74 (29), the hold display indicating the hold in FIG. 1 increased here is displayed in a display form of the hold notice A after changing the hold. That is, the second special figure 1 hold display h12 is a hold display that also serves as a pre-reading notice.

In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 74 (30), “decoration 7”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 3”, which are combinations of the decorative symbols of the loss, are stopped (determined).
FIG. 75 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  In FIG. 75 (31), the suspension of the special figure 1 is consumed, the first special figure display device 212 starts the symbol variation display, and the decoration symbol display device 208 also starts the variation display of the decoration symbol. 74 (30), the second special figure 1 hold display h12 also serving as a pre-reading notice is shifted, and is displayed as the first special figure 1 hold display h11 in FIG. 75 (31). .

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 75 (32), “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 3”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, is stopped (determined). The combination of decorative symbols shown in FIG. 75 (32) is a chance to notify that a big hit is near.

  In FIG. 75 (33), the symbol variation display for the hold indicated by the first special figure 1 hold display h11 that also serves as the pre-reading notice shown in FIG. 32 (32) is started, and the decorative symbol display device shown in FIG. In 208, an effect as if developing into a battle effect is performed. That is, in the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c, while the decorative symbol continues to be displayed in a variable manner, a girl character appears in the middle symbol display area 208b, and a notification is made that “Large chance”.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 75 (35), “decoration 5” is stopped and displayed in each of the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c, and a reach state is formed. In addition, in the middle symbol display area 208b in which the decorative symbol fluctuating display continues, the characters “Intense heat” are also displayed.

The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 75 (36) develops into super reach. In the super reach state, the “decoration 5” that has been stopped in each of the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c is displayed in a small size in the lower left corner, and the main character appears on the entire screen to announce the start of the game. . Note that the hold display disappears (is not displayed) when the super reach state is entered.
FIG. 76 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG. 75.

The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 76 (37) displays a screen in which the main character defeats an enemy and wins, and three “decoration 5” are displayed side by side in the upper left corner. The effects described above in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIGS. 75 (34) to 76 (37) are the effects of reach B big hit.

  In the first special figure display device 212 shown in FIG. 76 (38), the symbol form of the special figure A (see FIG. 55 (a-1)) is stopped and displayed. In addition, on the decorative symbol display device 208, an odd number of decorative symbol combinations such as “decoration 5”-“decoration 5”-“decoration 5” are stopped and displayed (determined display), and a “big hit” character is also displayed. ing. In the present embodiment, the stop display of an odd number of decorative symbol combinations such as “decoration 5”-“decoration 5”-“decoration 5” can be said to be an example of a first effect. When the super reach state ends, the on-hold display is resumed. Here, there is a winning of three balls at the first special figure starting port 230 during the super reach state, and the decorative symbol display device shown in FIG. 208 includes, in addition to the first special figure 1 hold display h11 and the second special figure 1 hold display h12, a third special figure 1 hold display h13 and a fourth special figure 1 hold display h14. It is displayed in the default display mode.

  Eventually, the big hit game is started, and the decorative symbol display device 208 of the 12th round is shown in FIG. 76 (39). During the big hit game, the hold display disappears (hidden). In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 76 (39), an opening of a button effect is displayed. The button effects shown in FIGS. 76 (39) and (40) are the same as the effects shown in FIGS. 71 (8) and (9), and the chance character 136 shown in FIG. Will appear in the 15th round, and the chance to win a certainty will come. In addition, since 15R big hit is won here, it actually advances to 15 rounds.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 76 (41), the player presses the chance button 136. As a result, in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 76 (41), the character of the bancho appears and the character display “Yataze” is also displayed. That is, it is notified that the process proceeds to the 15th round. That is, the display as shown in FIG. 76 (41) can be said to be an example of the first effect.

In Fig. 76 (42), the player enters the 14th round, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in Fig. 42 (42) notifies that the attacker is to win a prize in the next round, that is, the 15th round. This notification is a notification for obtaining a probability change, that is, for establishing the third game condition (or the first condition). Note that although only an attacker is notified here, notification that prompts the second attacker (second variable winning opening 235) to win may be performed. Moreover, you may perform the alert | report which encourages a right strike.
FIG. 77 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  FIG. 77 (43) shows a state of the decorative symbol display device 208 in the 15th round. FIG. 77 (43) also shows a state in which the second attacker (second variable prize opening 235) is opened.

  In FIG. 77 (44), the second attacker (second variable prize opening 235) has won a prize, and the decorative symbol display device 208 is informed that the probability variation has been confirmed. Thus, it can be said that the notification of probability variation acquisition as shown in FIG. 77 (44) is an example of the fifth effect. That is, the fifth effect can be said to be an effect that can at least notify that the second gaming state is reached after the big hit game is finished.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 77 (45), an end effect of the big hit game is performed. Further, in this example, the special figure 1 hold gradually increases from FIG. 75 (35), and the special figure 1 hold is full when the big hit game ends. Furthermore, during the big hit game, 1/100

In the determination of whether or not the normal figure is successful, the electric Chu (second special figure starting port 232) is opened, and the special figure 2 is also full. In the end effect of the big hit game, the hold display is resumed, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 77 (45) displays the hold display of special figure 1 and the hold display of special figure 2 by four. (H11-h14, h21-h24).

  Here, the second game condition is established by winning the special figure A, and the third game condition ((the second attacker) has also won a prize). Alternatively, the first condition) is also established, and when the big hit game is ended, the display changes to the probability variation state and the electric support state while the symbol variation display is performed 100 times (corresponding to an example of the first period). Further, until the next big hit, the table set 1 shown in FIG. 60A (corresponding to an example of the second group) is used.

  In FIG. 77 (46), since it is a special figure 2 priority change machine, the special figure 2 hold indicated by the first special figure 2 hold display h211 is digested, and the second special figure display device 214 displays the symbol fluctuation display. The decorative symbol display device 208 has also started displaying the decorative symbols in a variable manner. The variation time of the 99 symbol variation displays including the symbol variation display is determined using the table 3 shown in FIGS. 61 (d) to 61 (f). In addition, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 77 (46) displays a character display that prompts a right-hand stroke, a character display that indicates “probability change” that indicates that the probability change state, and a remaining number display that indicates “99 times remaining”. Has been made. The remaining number display here is informed that the probability variation state (or the power support state) continues for another 99 symbol variation displays.

Thereafter, the symbol variation display based on the table 3 is repeatedly performed until the big hit game is started. In this example, after the big hit game is finished, the lost symbols are stopped and displayed in 98 symbol variation displays. In (47), the 99th symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. This symbol variation display corresponds to the last symbol variation display based on Table 3. Even in the 99th symbol variation display, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 77 (48) has “decoration 0”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 6”, which are combinations of the decorative symbols of the loss. Stop display (determined display). During the 99th symbol variation display, there is a single winning at the second special figure starting port 232, and the special figure 2 hold is full.
FIG. 78 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG. 77.

  In FIG. 78 (49), the 100th symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. The variation time of the 100th symbol variation display is determined using the table 5 shown in FIGS. 62 (c) and (d). The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 78 (49) displays characters “Last”. The character display of “Last” corresponds to an example of the remaining number display of “Remaining 0 times”. In addition, there is an effect that seems to develop into a battle effect. That is, in the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c, while the decorative symbol continues to be displayed in a variable manner, a girl character appears in the middle symbol display area 208b, and a notification that "Battle starts when reaching reach" is made. Yes.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 78 (50), the first stop is performed, and “decoration 7” is stopped and displayed in the left symbol display area 208a. In the middle symbol display area 208b and the right symbol display area 208c, the decorative symbol variation display continues.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 78 (51), while the decorative symbol continues to be displayed in the middle symbol display area 208b, the fluctuation in the right symbol display area 208c occurs, and “decoration 7” and “decoration 6” are displayed. There is an effect that either one of them stops. Here, if “decoration 7” is stopped and displayed in the right symbol display area 208c, a reach state is reached and a battle effect is started. As described above, in the 100th symbol variation display, that is, the symbol variation display based on Table 5,

If the battle production (reach state), which is a kind of super reach production, is started, the big hit is confirmed.

In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 78 (52), “decoration 7” is stopped and displayed in the right symbol display area 208c, a reach state is formed, a character display of “battle start” is made, and the big hit is confirmed. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 78 (53), a battle effect A is performed, and a samurai character and a Tono-sama character appear. In addition, a character is displayed as “Push out the spear with a button” to press the chance button 136 to perform a battle and urge the spear character to be expelled from the screen. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 78 (54), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the pattern 136a of the chance button 136, and a remaining time display bar 136b indicating the remaining time of the reception period for pressing the chance button. It is displayed.
FIG. 79 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG. 78.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 79 (55), the player presses the chance button 136. As a result, in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 79 (55), the big hit confirmation effect is displayed, “decoration 7” is displayed in large size, and the Tono-like character that performs a peace sign is also displayed. The effect described above in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIGS. 78 (49) to 79 (55) is the battle effect A. 78 (49) to FIG. 78 (51) can be seen as the inferior part of the battle effect, and the battle effect A can be seen as FIGS. 78 (52) to 79 (55).

  The decoration symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 79 (56) shows a state in which the third stop is performed and three “decorations 7” are stopped and displayed (confirmed display). The variation time of the 100th symbol variation display is 35 seconds. In addition, in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 79 (56), four special figure 1 hold displays representing the special figure 1 hold (h11 to h14) are displayed (h11 to h14), and the special figure 2 representing the special figure 2 hold. The hold display is also increased by one and displayed four (h21 to h24).

  Next, a specific example of an effect that rarely occurs in the pachinko machine of the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 80 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect that rarely occurs in the pachinko machine according to the present embodiment.

  In the state shown in FIG. 80 (1), as in the state shown in FIG. 76 (38), the first special figure display device 212 stops and displays the symbol form of the special figure A (see FIG. 55 (a-1)). In the decorative symbol display device 208, an odd number of decorative symbol combinations such as “decoration 5”-“decoration 5”-“decoration 5” are stopped and displayed (determined display), and a “big hit” character is also displayed. It is in a state. It should be noted that four special figure 1 hold displays representing the hold in special figure 1 are displayed (h11 to h14), and no special figure 2 hold display representing the hold in special figure 2 is displayed.

Eventually, the big hit game is started, and FIG. 80 (2) to FIG. 80 (6) are the same as FIG. 76 (39) to FIG.
FIG. 81 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  FIG. 81 (7) shows the state of a 15-round jackpot game. FIG. 81 (7) shows a state immediately before the opened second attacker (second variable prize opening 235) is closed after the opening time has elapsed. In other words, this example shows what the player did not know or forgot about having to aim at the second variable prize opening 235 in the 15th round.

For some reason, there is no winning in the second variable winning opening 235, and the third game condition (or the first condition) is not established. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 81 (7), a character display indicating that the third game condition (or the first condition) has not been established as “what are you doing” along with the character display of the bancho. It has also been made. However, for those who have been alerted to win an attacker in the 15th round in FIG. 80 (5), but who have not noticed this alert at all, or who have missed this alert, this character The display may not make sense. Thus, it can be said that the effect as shown in FIG. 81 (7) is an example of the sixth effect. That is, the sixth effect can be said to be an effect that can at least notify that the first gaming state is reached after the big hit game is finished.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 81 (8), the end effect of the big hit game is performed. In addition, on this decorative symbol display device 208, four special figure 1 hold displays representing the hold of special figure 1 are displayed (h11 to h14), and four special figure 2 hold displays representing the hold of special figure 2 are also displayed. (H21 to h24).

  Here, the second game condition is established by winning the special figure A, but the third game condition (or alternatively, because the second variable winning port 235 (second attacker) has not been won). The first condition) is not established, and when the big hit game is completed, while the symbol variation display is performed 50 times (corresponding to an example of the second period), the electronic support state is shifted to the non-probable variation state. Further, until the next big hit, the table set 1 shown in FIG. 60A (corresponding to an example of the second group) is used. As described above, the second game condition is satisfied, but the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied, so the state shifts to the electric support state with the uncertain change state, and the table is set until the next big hit. The state in which set 1 is used corresponds to the first state.

  In FIG. 81 (9), since it is a special figure 2 priority change machine, the special figure 2 hold indicated by the first special figure 2 hold display h21 is digested, and the second special figure display device 214 displays the symbol fluctuation display. The decorative symbol display device 208 has also started displaying the decorative symbols in a variable manner. The variation time of the 99 symbol variation displays including the symbol variation display is determined using the table 3 shown in FIGS. 61 (d) to 61 (f). However, even if the big hit game ends, the non-probability change state remains, and the electric support state continues only for 50 symbol variation displays after the big hit game ends. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 81 (9), a character display that prompts a right strike and a remaining number display of “49 remaining times” are displayed. The remaining number display here is informed that the electric support state continues for another 49 symbol variation displays. In addition, since it is a non-probability change state, the character display of "probability change" is not made.

Thereafter, the symbol variation display based on the table 3 is repeatedly performed until the big hit game is started. In this example, after the big hit game is finished, the lost symbols are stopped and displayed in 48 symbol variation displays. In (11), the 49th symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. This symbol variation display also corresponds to the symbol variation display based on the table 3.
FIG. 82 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  Even in the 49th symbol variation display, no big hit is made, and the decoration symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 82 (13) has “decoration 0”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 6”, which are combinations of the decorative symbols of the loss. Stop display (determined display). In addition, on this decorative symbol display device 208, four special figure 1 hold displays indicating the hold of special figure 1 are displayed (h11 to h14), and four special figure 2 hold displays indicating the hold of special figure 2 are also displayed. (H21 to h24).

  In FIG. 82 (14), the 50th symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. The fluctuation time of the 50th symbol fluctuation display is also determined using Table 3 as before.

It is. However, since it is the symbol variation display in which the power support state is the last, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 82 (14) displays “Last”. The character display of “Last” corresponds to an example of the remaining number display of “Remaining 0 times”. Even in Table 3, in the case of the display of the change in the symbol of the loss, the battle gasse tilt 1 may be performed, but since the number of holdings of the special figure 2 here is four, the table shown in FIG. 61 (e) is used. In many cases, the timer number 2 (2 seconds) becomes an extremely shortened loss. In this example as well, the variation time of the 50th symbol variation display is 2 seconds, and the effect of Battle Gase Aori 1 is not performed, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. "Decoration 5"-"Decoration 5"-"Decoration 4" are stopped and displayed (determined display). The decorative symbol display device 208 displays four special figure 1 hold displays (h11 to h14) representing the special figure 1 hold, and three special figure 2 hold displays representing the special figure 2 hold. (H21 to h23).

  As described with reference to FIG. 73, if the game performance is in the electric support state (game performance using the table set 2), the last symbol variation display immediately before (falling state) is a case of loss. Even battle gasase tilt occurs. However, in the table set 1 based on the special figure A, since the table 3 is used, there is a high probability of producing an uncomfortable effect in which the losing is confirmed by the ultrashort fluctuation of 2 seconds. In some cases, the effect that remains uncomfortable can function as a notification effect for notifying a portion different from the original game performance of a so-called structure probability change machine, in which a probability change state is not given unless a predetermined area is won.

When the 49th symbol variation display is completed, if the number of reserved figures in the special figure 2 is 3 or less, the table shown in FIG. 61 (f) is used. There is a case where it is possible to perform an effect without a sense of incongruity with high probability of occurrence.
FIG. 83 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  When the 50th symbol variation display is completed, the gaming state shifts to a non-electric support state. That is, a transition is made from the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state to the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state. This special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal state) continues until the next jackpot game ends. However, the variation time of the symbol variation display is still determined using Table 3. However, even when the same table 3 is used, the variation time is the same, but in the electric support state (normal high probability state) and the non-electric support state (normal low probability state), the decorative symbol display device 208 There may be cases where the production mode is different. That is, as shown in FIG. 59 (d), if it is the fluctuation time of timer number 4 (10 seconds), the effect of Battle Gaseori 1 is performed in the electric support state (normal high probability state). If it is a support state (ordinary low-probability state), a production mode of deviation is usually performed. Moreover, if it is the fluctuation time of the timer number 6 (30 seconds), the effect mode of battle A defeat is performed in the electric support state (general figure high probability state), but in the non electric support state (general figure low probability state). If there is, a super reach A losing effect mode is performed. Furthermore, if it is the fluctuation time of timer number 7 (35 seconds), the battle A victory effect mode is performed in the electric support state (general figure high probability state), but in the non electric support state (general figure low probability state). If there is, the reach aspect of reach A jackpot is performed.

  In FIG. 83 (16), the 51st symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 83 (16), a character is displayed to prompt the user to return to the left-hand side because the non-electric support state has been entered. The remaining number display is finished and disappears. Here, the remaining three special figure 2 holds are digested in order. The 51st symbol variation display is a 10-second variation time of the timer number 4, and the decorative symbol display device 208 performs a normal loss effect.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 83 (17), the symbol variation display for the last hold of the remaining special figure 2 is finished, and “decoration 0”-“decoration 7”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss.

“-Decoration 6” is stopped (determined). The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 83 (17) does not display any special figure 2 hold display indicating the hold of special figure 2, but the special figure 1 hold display indicating the hold of special figure 1 is not displayed. Four are displayed (h11 to h14).

  In FIG. 83 (18), the first special symbol display device 212 has started symbol variation display, and the decorative symbol display device 208 has also started variation symbol display, and the decorative symbol display device shown in FIG. In 208, “decoration 7”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 3”, which is a combination of the decorative patterns of the loss, is stopped (determined). In the decorative symbol display device 208 here, the special figure 1 hold display is reduced by one and displayed three (h11 to h13).

In the case of the losing symbol variation display after the 51st time based on the table 3, the variation time of 10 seconds of the timer number 4 is almost all cases, and the decorative symbol display device 208 performs the normal losing effect. Only when the number of holdings in FIG. 2 is four, the timer number 2 is subjected to a super-short fluctuation of 2 seconds. However, in this embodiment, one universal start port 228 is provided in the right region. The timer number 2 is not selected unless it is intentionally right-handed. When the actual gaming state is the special figure low probability ordinary figure low probability state, the rendering mode corresponding to the timer number 2 is prohibited, so the default gaming state of the table 3 used (the table 3 used) The production is executed using the production mode of the super shortening loss used in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state) instead.
84 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG. 83.

  In FIG. 84 (20), the 52nd symbol variation display is started, and “decoration 0”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 6”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, is displayed on the ornamental symbol display device 208. The state of the stop display (determined display) is shown.

  In FIG. 84 (21), the 53rd symbol variation display is started, the first special symbol display device 212 has started symbol variation display, and the decorative symbol display device 208 has also started decoration symbol variation display. . Note that there is only one special figure 1 hold display h11.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 84 (22), during the 53rd symbol variation display started in FIG. (21), a girl character is displayed as a normal notice, and may be developed into a reach. Is informed.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 84 (23), the reach is developed, and in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 84 (24), the super reach A effect is started. The 53rd symbol variation display is a symbol variation display of timer number 6 for 30 seconds. At the stage of FIG. 24 (24), there is a single winning at the first special figure starting port 230, and the number of reserved figures in the special figure 1 becomes two.

In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 84 (25), the super reach A effect is continued, and the losing confirmation effect is displayed. Even at this stage, there is another winning in the first special figure starting port 230, the special figure 1 is held on the number 3, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displaying the losing effect is displayed. Three displays (h11 to h13) are displayed.
FIG. 85 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 85 (26) shows a state where “decoration 4”-“decoration 5”-“decoration 4”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, is stopped (determined). ing. In addition, there is another one-game winning at the first special figure starting port 230, and four special figure 1 hold displays are displayed (h11 to h14).

  In FIG. 85 (27), the 54th symbol variation display is started, and “decoration 0”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 6”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, is displayed on the ornamental symbol display device 208. The state of the stop display (determined display) is shown.

  In FIG. 85 (28), the 55th symbol variation display is started, the first special symbol display device 212 has started symbol variation display, and the decorative symbol display device 208 has also started variation symbol display. . Note that there are two remaining special figure 1 hold indications h11.

  In the first special figure display device 212 shown in FIG. 85 (29), the design mode of the special figure A (see FIG. 55 (a-1)) is stopped and displayed, and the decorative design display device 208 has no reach effect. Suddenly, an odd number of combinations of decorative symbols such as “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” are stopped and displayed (determined display), and “big hit” characters are also displayed. That is, in the 55th symbol variation display, a super shortened big hit such as 1 second of the timer number 1 is performed based on the table 3 shown in FIG. In the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, the table 1 shown in FIG. 60C is originally used, and the selection probability for the super-shortened jackpot of the timer number 1 is 1/65536, but here, FIG. The use of the table 3 shown in d) increases the selection probability to about 45%. Thus, compared with the case where the table 1 is used, in appearance, there is a high probability that it will be a huge hit with overwhelmingly super shortening. That is, there is a case where it is possible to hit a big hit with a very rare change that can hardly be seen in normal times, and it is possible to prevent the game interest from being lost due to missed probability change.

  FIG. 86 is a diagram showing an example in which the 100th symbol variation display is reached without making a big hit from the state shown in FIG. 85 (26).

  The 99th symbol variation display is performed, and the symbol pattern of the special symbol F (see FIG. 55 (a-1)) is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212 shown in FIG. 86 (a). On the display device 208, “decoration 7”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 3”, which are combinations of decorative patterns for losing, are stopped (determined). The 99th symbol variation display is the last symbol variation display based on Table 3. Two special figure 1 hold displays (h12, h12) are displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 86 (a).

  In FIG. 86 (b), the 100th symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. The variation time of the 100th symbol variation display is determined using the table 5 shown in FIGS. 62 (c) and (d). Even if it is a big hit symbol variation display in which the timer number 7 of 35 seconds is always selected, or a loss variation variation display in which the timer number 5 of 12 seconds is always selected, the special figure low probability ordinary figure low probability In the state, the reach effect is performed as shown in FIG. That is, in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, the reach production of super reach A is performed and a big hit is made, or the reach production of normal reach is performed and lost.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 86 (c), a reach state is formed, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 7 ”-“ Decoration 4 ”is stopped (determined). That is, in this example, the effect is a normal reach loss. In the table 1 shown in FIG. 60 (d) and FIG. 60 (e), which are originally used in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, the normal reach loss of 12 seconds is performed. There are cases where it is possible to prevent a sense of incongruity by changing the production mode according to the gaming state.

  In the case of a big hit, the reach effect of Super Reach A shown in FIG. 70 is always performed.

Here, as long as the time approximates to 12 seconds, it is possible to adopt time adjustment by fluctuation of fluctuation or the like. By shaking fluctuation, it can give a little uncomfortable feeling and can notify that it was in a special state, but it can also be said that the uncomfortable feeling is minimized.
[Embodiment 2]

  Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above.

  FIG. 87 (a-1) shows an example of the stop symbol pattern (first symbol pattern) of FIG. 1 in the pachinko machine of the second embodiment. FIG. 87 (a-2) The example of the stop symbol aspect (1st symbol aspect) of the special figure 2 in the pachinko machine of 2 embodiment is shown.

  In FIG. 87 (a-1) and FIG. 87 (a-2), six types of special drawings from “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure F” are shown as stop symbol forms in the symbol variation display.

  Also in the second embodiment, the stop symbol aspect of the special figure 1 and the stop symbol aspect of the special figure 2 are common. In the second embodiment, all the big hits are big hits with 15 rounds of electric support, but in Special Figure 2, the big hit symbols are all big hits (special big hits) scheduled to acquire certain variation. On the other hand, in Special Figure 1, only “Special Figure A” and “Special Figure B” are jackpots (special jackpots) scheduled to be probable, and “Special Figure C” and “Special Figure D” are scheduled to acquire probable changes. There is no jackpot.

  FIG. 87 (b) is a diagram summarizing the actions of the attacker during the jackpot game of FIG.

  The special figure A in the special figure 1 shows that the first variable prize opening 234 (first attacker) is open for 25 seconds from the first round to the 14th round, and the second variable prize opening 235 (second Attacker) opens for 25 seconds.

  The special figure B in the special figure 1 is that the first variable prize opening 234 (first attacker) is opened for 25 seconds from the first round to the 14th round, and the second variable prize opening 235 (second Attacker) first opens for 0.1 seconds, goes through a 3 second closing period and opens for 24.9 seconds.

  In the special figure C and D in the special figure 1, the first variable prize opening 234 (first attacker) is opened for 25 seconds from the first round to the 14th round. (Attacker 2) is only open for 0.1 seconds and there is almost no chance of winning.

  Also in the second embodiment, the third game condition (or the first condition) is established by winning the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) in the 15th round. Therefore, in the special figures C and D of the special figure 1, although the possibility of the probability variation acquisition is not 0%, the possibility is very low, and it is a big hit that the probability variation acquisition is not scheduled. On the other hand, in the special figures A and B of the special figure 1, the opening time of the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) is sufficient, which is a big hit that is expected to acquire a certain variation.

Further, the action of the attacker in the case of the special figure A and B in the special figure 2 is the same as the action of the attacker in the case of the special figure A in the special figure 1, and the attacker in the case of the special figures C and D in the special figure 2 The operation of is the same as the operation of the attacker in the case of special figure B in special figure 1. Therefore, all of the jackpot symbols (special charts A to D) in the special figure 2 are the big hits that the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) has sufficient time to open and the probability variation is scheduled to be acquired. It should be noted that the operation of the attacker in the case of the special drawings A to D in the special drawing 2 may be the same as the operation of the attacker in the case of the special drawing A in the special drawing 1.

  Moreover, the table set and each table in 2nd Embodiment are the same as what is shown in FIGS.

  FIG. 88 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect example in the pachinko machine according to the second embodiment.

  In the first special figure display device 212 shown in FIG. 88 (1), the symbol form of the special figure C (see FIG. 87 (a-1)) which is a big hit that is not scheduled to be acquired is stopped and displayed. In addition, on the decorative symbol display device 208, the combination of decorative symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” is stopped and displayed (determined display), and the character display of “big hit” is also displayed. . Note that the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 88 (1) displays four special figure 1 hold displays (h11 to h14). In this way, an effect that is not scheduled to acquire a certain variation such that the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” is stopped (determined display) is equivalent to the second effect. To do.

  Eventually, the big hit game is started, and the decorative symbol display device 208 of the 12th round is shown in FIG. 88 (2), and this decorative symbol display device 208 displays the opening of the button effect. In this button effect, when a chance length character 136 shown in FIG. 51 is pressed and a longest character appears, the second attacker (second variable prize opening 235) is played for a long time (for example, 25) in 15 rounds. Second or 24.9 seconds), and the chance to win a certainty comes. In addition, since it is an effect to the last, and only the special figure C is won, in fact, the second attacker does not open for a long time (for example, 25 seconds, 24, 9 seconds), and for a short time (here, 0. 0). 1 second) Only open.

  At the timing shown in FIG. 88 (3), the player presses the chance button 136. As a result, in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 88 (3), an old character appears, but a character mark “chance” is displayed with a question mark.

  In FIG. 88 (4), the 14th round is entered, and in FIG. 88 (5), the 15th round of the final round is started. FIG. 88 (5) shows a state in which the second attacker (second variable prize opening 235) is opened, but the opening time of the second attacker here is a short time of 0.1. It is a second, and it is difficult to expect a prize.

  However, FIG. 88 (6) shows a state in which the second attacker opened by chance for 0.1 second was accidentally won, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 88 (6) is shown. Is displayed with a letter indicating that the probability change has been obtained, such as “Probability change”.

Thus, in this embodiment, it can be said that the third game condition (or the first condition) may be satisfied even when the first effect is not performed.
FIG. 89 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 89 (7), the end effect of the big hit game is performed. Also, in this example, during the jackpot game, 1/100 probability of hitting the normal figure, the electric Chu (second special figure start port 232) is opened, and the special figure 2 hold increases to full. ing. In the end effect of the big hit game, the hold display is resumed, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 89 (7) displays the hold display of FIG. 1 and the hold display of FIG. (H11-h14, h21-h24).

  Here, assuming that special figure C is won in special figure 1, it is assumed that the second game condition is satisfied, but the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied, and FIG. ) After the big hit game, the table set 2 shown in FIG. 60B is used. In addition, the game state becomes a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, and the electric support state is maintained while the symbol variation display is performed 50 times after the big hit game. However, in this example, because the third game condition (or the first condition) is also established by chance, the game state after the big hit game becomes a special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state, and the big hit game After that, while the symbol variation display is performed 100 times, the electric support state is maintained. The table set 2 is used as the table set. In this way, after the second performance is performed, the third game condition (or the first condition) is established, so that the state changes to the probability change state and the table set 2 is used until the next big hit. This state corresponds to the fourth state.

  On the other hand, in the state shown in FIG. 88 (6), if the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied because there is no winning for the second attacker, The table set 2 shown in FIG. 60B is used. As described above, after the second performance is performed, the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied, the electric support state is entered, and the table set 2 is used until the next big hit. Such a state corresponds to the third state.

  The pachinko machine of the second embodiment is also a special figure 2 priority change machine, and in FIG. 89 (8), the special figure 2 hold indicated by the first special figure 2 hold display h211 is digested, and the second special figure display device. Reference numeral 214 starts the symbol variation display, and the ornament symbol display device 208 also starts the variation symbol display. In addition, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 89 (8) has a character display for urging the right hand, a character display “probability change” for notifying that the state is a probability change state, and a remaining number display “99 times remaining”. Has been made. The remaining number display here is informed that the probability variation state (or the power support state) continues for another 99 symbol variation displays.

  Further, the variation time of 49 symbol variation displays including this symbol variation display is determined using the table 2 shown in FIGS. 61 (a) to 61 (c).

  Thereafter, the symbol variation display based on the table 2 is repeatedly performed until the big hit game is started. In this example, in the first symbol variation display after the big hit game is finished, as shown in FIG. On the symbol display device 208, “decoration 0”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 6”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, is stopped (determined). Also, in the 25th symbol variation display, as shown in FIG. 89 (10), the decorative symbol display device 208 has the combination of the decorative symbols of the losing (here “decoration 4”-“decoration 0”-“decoration 7”). ) Is stopped (confirmed).

In FIG. 89 (11), the 26th symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. This symbol variation display is also a symbol variation display based on Table 2. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 89 (12), the first stop is performed, and “decoration 7” is stopped and displayed in the left symbol display area 208a. In the middle symbol display area 208b and the right symbol display area 208c, the decorative symbol variation display continues.
FIG. 90 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 90 (13), while the decorative symbol continues to be variably displayed in the middle symbol display region 208b, shaking fluctuation occurs in the right symbol display region 208c, and “decoration 7” and “decoration 6” are displayed. There is an effect that either one of them stops. Here, if “decoration 7” is stopped and displayed in the right symbol display area 208c, a reach state is reached and a battle effect is started.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 90 (14), “decoration 7” is stopped and displayed in the right symbol display area 208c, a reach state is formed, and the characters “battle start” are displayed.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 90 (15), it is informed that the battle effect B is started, the Tono-sama character appears, and the bowling battle is started. In this bowling battle, it is also notified that a big hit is confirmed if a strike occurs.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 90 (16), the bowling battle is started, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. The effect described above in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIGS. 90 (14) to (17) is the battle effect B. This battle effect B is an effect that does not originally appear in the table 3 of the table set 1. In other words, when the table set is 1, special figure 1 is won when special figure A or special figure B is won and a certain change is obtained as scheduled, it is an effect that does not appear. Most of the players who have seen this battle production B do not feel uncomfortable, but some players who are familiar with this pachinko machine understand that it is a rare value production. May function as a special state notification.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 90 (18), an odd number of combinations of decorative symbols such as “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” are stopped (determined) and “big hit” is displayed. Is also displayed. As described above, in this embodiment, the effect of stopping and displaying (decision display) an odd number of decorative symbol combinations such as “decoration 7” — “decoration 7” — “decoration 7” that is determined to be a 15R special big hit is provided. It can be said to be an example of the first effect.

  In the present embodiment, the super reach like the battle effect may be executed only when the reach state is formed by the “decoration 7” in the effect of the symbol variation display of the special figure 2. Alternatively, the super-reach executed when the reach state is formed by the “decoration 7” has a higher degree of reliability than the case where the reach state is formed by other decorative symbols and the super-reach is developed. You may comprise. Alternatively, when the reach state is formed by “decoration 7”, it may be configured to be a big hit.

  FIG. 91 is a diagram showing an example in which the 50th symbol variation display is reached without making a big hit even from the end of the big hit game shown in FIG. 89 (7).

  The symbol variation display of the special figure 2 of the 49th time is performed, and the symbol form of the special figure F (see FIG. 87 (a-2)) is stopped and displayed on the second special figure display device 214 shown in FIG. 91 (a). In the decorative symbol display device 208, “decoration 4”-“decoration 0”-“decoration 7”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, is stopped (determined). The 49th symbol variation display is a symbol variation display based on Table 2. In addition, in the 1st special figure display apparatus 212 shown to Fig.91 (a), the symbol aspect of special figure C (refer FIG. 87 (3a-1)) is stopped display, and if it is original, a non-probability change state ( It should be a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state), but here it is a probability variation state (special figure high probability normal figure high probability state).

  The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 91A displays four special figure 1 hold displays (h11 to h14) and four special figure 2 hold displays (h21 to h24).

  In FIG. 91 (b), the 50th symbol variation display is started after the end of the big hit game. The variation time of the 50th symbol variation display is determined using the table 4 shown in FIGS. 62 (a) and (b). Whether the timer number 7 of 35 seconds or the timer number 9 of 65 seconds is always selected Even if the symbol variation display is a big hit, the timer number 5 of 12 seconds is always selected

As shown in FIG. 59 (d), the reach effect is performed in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state as well as in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state. In other words, even in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state, the battle reach super-reach is performed to make a big hit, or the battle gaze tilt 2 effect is made to lose. When the actual game state is the special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state, the default game of the table 4 that is the table used is applied because the production mode corresponding to the timer number 9 is prohibited. An effect is executed using the effect mode of battle B victory used in the state (the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state) instead.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 91 (c), an effect as if developing into a battle effect is performed. That is, in the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c, while the decorative symbol continues to be displayed in a variable manner, a girl character appears in the middle symbol display area 208b, and a notification that "Battle starts when reaching reach" is made. Yes.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 91 (d), the first stop is performed, and “decoration 7” is stopped and displayed in the left symbol display area 208a. In the middle symbol display area 208b and the right symbol display area 208c, the decorative symbol variation display continues.

In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 91 (e), while the decorative symbol continues to be variably displayed in the middle symbol display region 208b, shaking fluctuation occurs in the right symbol display region 208c, and “decoration 7” and “decoration 6”. There is an effect that either one of them stops. Here, if “decoration 7” is stopped and displayed in the right symbol display area 208c, the reach state is reached. However, in the ornamental symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 91 (f), the second stop is performed and the right symbol display area is displayed. “Decoration 6” is stopped and displayed in 208c, and the reach state is not formed. The effect in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIGS. 91 (c) to 91 (f) is the effect of the battle gasase tilt 2.
FIG. 92 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  In the 50th symbol variation display in this example, in the case of a loss, the effect of battle gasse tilt 2 is always performed by the decorative symbol display device 208, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. “Decoration 7”-“Decoration 7”-“Decoration 6”, which is a combination of decorative symbols, is stopped (determined).

  In FIG. 92 (h), the 51st special symbol 2 symbol variation display is started. From the 51st symbol variation display, the variation time is determined using the table 1 shown in FIGS. 60 (c) to 60 (e). In Table 1, if the suspension of the special figure 1 is full, the symbol fluctuation display of timer number 3 is likely to be a five-second symbol fluctuation display in the case of the loss symbol fluctuation display. On the other hand, when the table 3 is used, if the number of holdings in the special figure 2 is full, the symbol number 2 of the timer number 2 is likely to be changed, and a difference of 3 seconds occurs in the changing time. However, the difference of 3 seconds can be adjusted by fluctuation of shaking. In the first place, in the probability variation state, a long variation time of 65 seconds is not prepared in the table 3, and the symbol variation display of the super-shortening system is repeated probabilistically, so that the hold is quickly digested, and the player is in an advantageous state. Although a special state can be notified by repeating the 5-second symbol variation display of timer number 3 in addition to the regular route probability change state using table set 1 (using table 3). It is also possible that the case) is slightly more advantageous to the player from the standpoint of digestion efficiency than the irregular probability change state using the table set 2 (when using the table 1).

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 92 (i), “decoration 4”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 6”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, are stopped and displayed.

  If the 100th symbol variation display of the jackpot game is lost,

In the case of using, the timer number 5 is always selected from the table 5, and the decoration symbol display device 208 produces the effect of the battle gasase tilt 2. On the other hand, even when the table set 2 is used, if the timer number 5 having the same variation time is selected from the table 1, the effect of the battle gasase tilt 2 is performed (see FIG. 59 (d)). If the 100th symbol variation display of the jackpot game is a jackpot, when using the table set 1, the timer number 7 is always selected from the table 5, and the decoration symbol display device 208 produces an effect of battle A victory. Is done. On the other hand, even when the table set 2 is used, if the timer number 7 having the same variation time is selected from the table 1, a battle A victory effect is performed (see FIG. 59 (d)). Furthermore, even when a variable time not selected in Table 5 is selected in Table 1, for example, if timer number 4 is used, the effect of Battle Gaseori 1 is performed, and in other cases, the time is adjusted by the effect. .

  FIG. 93 is a diagram illustrating an operation example of an attacker when the special figure B is won in the special figure 1 in the pachinko machine according to the second embodiment.

  93 (a) to 93 (c) are the same as the examples shown in FIGS. 88 (2) to 88 (3), and thus description thereof is omitted. In FIG. 93 (d), the 15th round of the final round is started. At this stage, the old and middle characters are still displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208, and there is a strong possibility that the special figure C or the special figure D that is not scheduled to be acquired is likely to be a big hit. In this state, the second attacker (second variable prize opening 235) performs a short opening of 0.1 second once. The opening for 0.1 second here has an effect that makes it seem for a moment that it is the opening of 15 rounds of special drawings C and D in FIG.

  After a short opening of 0.1 second for the second attacker, after a closing period of 3 seconds, the decoration symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. Appears and the second attacker (second variable prize opening 235) starts opening for a long time of 24.9 seconds.

FIG. 93 (f) shows that the second attacker who has opened the game has won a prize, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. The characters to be displayed are displayed.
[Embodiment 3]

  Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above.

  FIG. 94 (a-1) shows an example of the stop symbol pattern (first symbol pattern) of FIG. 1 in the pachinko machine of the third embodiment. FIG. 94 (a-2) The example of the stop symbol aspect (1st symbol aspect) of the special figure 2 in the pachinko machine of 2 embodiment is shown.

  In FIG. 94 (a-1) and FIG. 94 (a-2), six types of special drawings from “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure F” are shown as the stop symbol forms in the symbol variation display.

  Also in 3rd Embodiment, the stop symbol aspect of special figure 1 and the stop symbol aspect of special figure 2 are common. In the third embodiment as well as in the second embodiment, the jackpots are all 15-round probability variable jackpots (special jackpots), but in Special Figure 2, all jackpot symbols are probable bonus jackpots (special jackpots) that are scheduled to acquire electric support. Big hit), which is the same as in the second embodiment. On the other hand, in Special Figure 1, only "Special Figure A" and "Special Figure B" are probable big hits (special big hits) scheduled to acquire electric support, and "Special Figure C" and "Special Figure D" acquire electric support. It is a promising big hit (special jackpot) that is not scheduled.

  FIG. 94 (b) is a diagram summarizing the actions of the attacker during the jackpot game of FIG.

  The special figure A in the special figure 1 shows that the first variable prize opening 234 (first attacker) is open for 25 seconds from the first round to the 14th round, and the second variable prize opening 235 (second Attacker) opens for 25 seconds.

  The special figure B in the special figure 1 is that the first variable prize opening 234 (first attacker) is opened for 25 seconds from the first round to the 14th round, and the second variable prize opening 235 (second Attacker) first opens for 0.1 seconds, goes through a 3 second closing period and opens for 24.9 seconds.

  In the special figure C and D in the special figure 1, the first variable prize opening 234 (first attacker) is opened for 25 seconds from the first round to the 14th round. (Attacker 2) is only open for 0.1 seconds and there is almost no chance of winning.

  In the third embodiment, the third game condition (or the first condition) is established by winning the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) in the fifteenth round. A support state (short-time state) is given. Therefore, in the special figures C and D of the special figure 1, the possibility of acquiring electric support is not 0%, but the possibility is extremely low, and it is a big hit that is not scheduled to acquire electric support. On the other hand, in the special figures A and B of the special figure 1, the opening time of the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) is sufficient, which is a big hit scheduled to acquire electric support.

  Further, the action of the attacker in the case of the special figure A and B in the special figure 2 is the same as the action of the attacker in the case of the special figure A in the special figure 1, and the attacker in the case of the special figures C and D in the special figure 2 The operation of is the same as the operation of the attacker in the case of special figure B in special figure 1. Therefore, all of the big hit symbols (Special Drawings A to D) in the special figure 2 are the big hits where the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) is sufficiently open and the electric support is scheduled to be acquired. Note that the operation of the attacker in the case of special drawings A to D in the special drawing 2 may be the same as the operation of the attacker in the case of special drawing A in the special drawing 1.

  FIG. 94 (c) is a diagram showing a table set selection table in the case of a big win in FIG. 1, and FIG. 94 (b) is a diagram showing a table set selection table in the case of a big hit in FIG. These tables are also stored in the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300.

  Even in the third embodiment, in the low-probability state of the ordinary figure, the ordinary drawing lottery is only hit with a probability of 1/100. Therefore, the electric chew is hardly opened, and the probability of winning the second special figure starting port 232 is low. The table shown in FIG. 94 (c) corresponds to a table set selection table that is frequently used in the case of the normal figure low probability (special figure high probability normal figure low probability, special figure low probability normal figure low probability) state. FIG. 94 (c) shows a control state after the big hit game corresponding to the stop pattern at the time of the big hit in the special figure 1 for reference. A circle mark indicates “added”, and a cross mark indicates “none”.

  On the other hand, in the ordinary high probability state, the electric Chu is almost open, and the big hit in the special figure 2 is more advantageous to the player than the big hit in the special figure 1, so the player aims at the second special figure starting port 232. The table shown in FIG. 94 (d) corresponds to a table set selection table that is frequently used in the case of the normal figure high probability (special figure high probability normal figure high probability) state. In FIG. 94 (d), for reference, the control state after the big hit game corresponding to the stop pattern at the time of the big hit in the special figure 2 is shown.

  In FIG. 94 (c) and FIG. 94 (d), electric support is not provided unless the second variable winning opening 235 opened in the 15th round is won.

  From the table shown in FIG. 94C and the table shown in FIG.

When the second special figure starting port 232 is a jackpot symbol that is open for a long time, the table set 1 is selected, and the special figure determination result is that the second special figure starting port 232 is only opened for a short period of time. If so, the table set 2 is selected.

  FIG. 95A is a diagram for explaining tables used in the table set.

In the third embodiment, since all jackpot symbols have certain probability variations, there is no special figure low probability normal figure high probability state. For this reason, there are only three types of tables used in the table set: Table 1, Table 3, and Table 5. Table 3 is a table originally used in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state, and table 5 is a table originally used in the state immediately before the fall in the special figure high probability general figure high probability state. In the third embodiment, the table 1 is originally a table used in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, and is also a table used in the special figure high probability general figure low probability state.
FIG. 95 (b) is a diagram for explaining timer numbers.

  The diagram shown in FIG. 95 (b) is a diagram obtained by deleting the effect mode in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state from the diagram shown in FIG. 59 (d). In addition, the rendering mode performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) according to the special figure high probability normal figure low probability state is decorated according to the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state which is the same non-electric support state. This is the same as the effect mode performed by the symbol display device 208.

  FIG. 95 (c) is a diagram for explaining the table set 1 in the third embodiment.

  The table set 1 in the third embodiment is used when shifting to the electric support state after the end of the big hit game. After the big hit, until the 99th symbol variation display, the table 3 for the special symbol high probability common symbol high probability state is used. Table 5 is used. When the 101st symbol variation display is started, the state is shifted to the non-probable change state and the non-electric support state, and the table 1 for the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state is used.

  FIG. 95 (d) is a diagram for explaining the table set 2 in the third embodiment.

The table set 2 in the third embodiment is used when the non-electric support state remains after the big hit game ends. That is, when the special figure C or the special figure D is won in the special figure 1, only the table 1 is set, and the table 1 is continuously used until the next big hit game is finished. For this reason, compared with 1st Embodiment or 2nd Embodiment, the production which becomes uncomfortable during a special state increases, or a production is biased.
[Embodiment 4]

  Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above.

  In the first to third embodiments described above, at the timing when the special figure is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 or the second special figure display device 214, it corresponds to the type of special figure to be stopped and displayed. In the embodiment described below, the combination of decorative symbols is stopped and displayed (determined display) on the decorative symbol display device 208. However, in the embodiment described below, the first special diagram display device 212 or the second special diagram display device 214 is used. Before the special figure is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 or the second special figure display device 214 when the symbol pattern ("Special figure A" to "Special figure D") is a big hit Further, after temporarily stopping (temporarily stopping) the combination (temporary stop symbol) of any one of a plurality of types of decorative symbols on the decorative symbol display device 208, the decorative symbol is displayed.

Is displayed again (revariable display), and finally the stop display (determined display) is made at the timing when the special figure is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 or the second special figure display device 214. A description will be given of what has a function capable of implementing an effect mode for deriving and displaying a combination of decorative symbols.

In the pachinko machine of the fourth embodiment, the stop symbol aspect (first symbol aspect) of the special figure 1 is an example shown in FIG. 87 (a-1), and the stop symbol aspect of the special figure 2 is FIG. An example shown in a-2) will be described below. It should be noted that the first variable winning opening 234 (first attacker) and the second for each big hit in special figure A to special figure D in special figure 1, each big hit in special figure A to special figure D in special figure 2 Since the operation mode of the variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) is the same as that described in the second embodiment, the description thereof will be omitted.
<First sub-control unit decoration design determination process>
Next, the first sub-control unit decoration symbol determination process will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 96 is a flowchart showing the flow of the decorative symbol determination process of the first sub-control unit 400.

  The first sub control unit decoration symbol determination process shown in FIG. 96 is an effect in the first sub control unit main process that is determined to have received the symbol variation start command in the command process (FIG. 64A: step S307). This is a process executed in the control process (step S309).

  First, the CPU 404 of the first sub-control unit 400 acquires information representing the special symbol stop symbol included in the symbol variation start command described above (step S3093a).

CPU404 determines whether the information acquired in step S3093a is the information which shows the stop symbol of special figure 2 (step S3093b). When the CPU 404 does not determine that the acquired information is information indicating the stop symbol of the special figure 2, that is, when it is determined that the acquired information is information indicating the stop symbol of the special figure 1 (step S3093b: NO). ), A combination of decorative symbols to be stopped and displayed is determined based on the decorative symbol determination table for special figure 1 (step S3093c).
FIG. 97 (a) is a diagram illustrating a special hit determination design table for special figure 1.

  When the stop symbol of the special figure 1 is from “special figure A” to “special figure D”, the CPU 404 refers to the special figure 1 jackpot decorative symbol determination table shown in FIG. 97 (a). The special figure 1 jackpot decoration symbol determination table is stored in the ROM 406 of the first sub-control unit 400, for example.

  For example, the CPU 404 extracts a dedicated random number value that is stored in the RAM 408 and whose numerical value is updated in the range of 0 to 99, and displays a combination of the decorative symbol that is stopped and displayed from the stopped symbol of the special figure 1 and the extracted random number value. decide. For example, when the stop symbol of special figure 1 is “special figure A” or “special figure B”, “decoration 0” − “decoration 0” − “decoration 0” is 8% as a combination of the ornamental symbols. "Decoration 1"-"Decoration 1"-"Decoration 1" is 10%, "Decoration 2"-"Decoration 2"-"Decoration 2" is 8%, "Decoration 3"-"Decoration 3"-"Decoration 3" 15%, "decoration 4"-"decoration 4"-"decoration 4" 8%, "decoration 5"-"decoration 5"-"decoration 5" 10%, "decoration 6"-"decoration 6"-" Decoration 6 is 8%, Decoration 7-Decoration 7-Decoration 7 is 15%, Decoration 8-Decoration 8-Decoration 8 is 8%, Decoration 9-Decoration 9 ”-“ decoration 9 ”is selected at a rate of 10%. That is, when the special symbol 1 is “Special A” or “Special B”, an odd number of decorations is used rather than a combination of three even numbered decorative symbols (a combination of the first decorative symbols). Three assorted designs

The combination (the combination of the second decorative design) is configured to be easily selected. Further, for example, when the special symbol 1 is “Special C” or “Special D”, 18% of “decoration 0”-“decoration 0”-“decoration 0” are combinations of the ornamental symbols. “Decoration 1” — “decoration 1” — “decoration 1” is 3%, “decoration 2” — “decoration 2” — “decoration 2” is 18%, “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” "0%", "decoration 4"-"decoration 4"-"decoration 4" 18%, "decoration 5"-"decoration 5"-"decoration 5" 3%, "decoration 6"-"decoration 6" -"Decoration 6" is 18%, "Decoration 7"-"Decoration 7"-"Decoration 7" is 0%, "Decoration 8"-"Decoration 8"-"Decoration 8" is 18%, "Decoration 9"- “Decoration 9”-“Decoration 9” is selected at a rate of 4%. That is, when the stop symbol of Special Figure 1 is “Special Figure A” or “Special Figure B”, the combination of three odd-numbered decorative symbols is better than the combination of three even-numbered decorative symbols. When the stop symbol of special figure 1 is “special figure C” or “special figure D”, an even number of decorations is used rather than a combination of three odd number of decorative figures. The combination of three symbols is configured to be easily selected. As a result, the player greatly expects that the combination of the decorative symbols that are stopped and displayed is a combination of three odd-numbered decorative symbols that the game is a 15R special big hit. On the other hand, even when the combination of decorative symbols that are stopped (determined) is a combination of three even-numbered decorative symbols, the player is expected to lose the expectation of being a 15R special big hit. Can be suppressed. In addition, the combination of decorative patterns (third decorative pattern combination) of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” and “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” The stop symbols are configured to be selected only in the case of “Special Figure A” and “Special Figure B”. Therefore, the combination of the decoration pattern of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” and “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is the second variable prize opening 235 ( It can be said that the third game condition (or the first condition) established by winning the second attacker) is a combination that is easily established. That is, in the present embodiment, the third combination of decorative symbols corresponds to the second combination. Further, the combination of the first decorative symbols corresponds to the first combination. Furthermore, the combination of the second decorative symbols and the combination of the decorative symbols other than the third decorative symbol combination corresponds to the first combination.

  In addition, when the stop symbol of Special Figure 1 is “Special Figure E” and “Special Figure F”, that is, when it is a lost symbol, for example, the fluctuation determined as described above in the first embodiment. The combination of decorative symbols to be stopped and displayed is determined in accordance with the time and the effect mode on the decorative symbol display device 208.

  When the combination of decorative symbols to be stopped and displayed (determined display) is determined as described above in step S3093c, the CPU 404 determines the combination of decorative symbols to be temporarily stopped (step S3093d).

  Specifically, it is a combination of decorative symbols in which three combinations of decorative symbols to be stopped are displayed, and “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” and “decoration 7” — “decoration 7” — In the case of a combination of decorative symbols other than the combination of the decorative symbols of “decoration 7”, the combination of the decorative symbols at the time of temporary stop is determined as the combination of decorative symbols to be determined and displayed. That is, the combination of the decorative symbols that are temporary stop symbols is set to be the same as the decorative symbols that are finally displayed. In addition, the combination of the decorative symbols at the time of temporary stop may be determined by lottery and may be set so as to be different from the combination of decorative symbols to be confirmed and displayed. In this case, the combination of the decorative symbols at the time of temporary stop is “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” —displayed only when the special symbols 1 are “special symbol A” and “special symbol B”. It is preferable not to use a combination of “decoration 3” and “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7”, but this is not restrictive.

FIG. 97 (b) is a diagram showing a temporary stop symbol lottery table when “333” and “777” are selected for special figure 1.

  When the combination of the decorative symbols to be confirmed and displayed is a combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” and “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7”. The combination of decorative symbols for temporary stop is determined with reference to the temporary stop symbol lottery table for selecting special symbol “333” and “777” shown in 97 (b). The temporary stop symbol lottery table at the time of selecting “333” and “777” for the special figure 1 is stored in the ROM 406 of the first sub-control unit 400, for example.

  For example, the CPU 404 extracts a dedicated random number value that is stored in the RAM 408 and whose numerical value is updated within a range of 0 to 99, and finally stops temporarily from a combination of decorative symbols that are stopped and displayed and the extracted random number value. Determine the combination of decorative symbols when For example, when the combination of decorative symbols that are finally stopped and displayed is “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3”, the combination of the decorative symbols when temporarily stopping is “decoration 0”-“ "Decoration 0"-"Decoration 0" is 1%, "Decoration 1"-"Decoration 1"-"Decoration 1" is 2%, "Decoration 2"-"Decoration 2"-"Decoration 2" is 1%, "Decoration" 3 "-" decoration 3 "-" decoration 3 "89%," decoration 4 "-" decoration 4 "-" decoration 4 "1%," decoration 5 "-" decoration 5 "-" decoration 5 "2 %, "Decoration 6"-"decoration 6"-"decoration 6" is 1%, "decoration 7"-"decoration 7"-"decoration 7" is 0%, "decoration 8"-"decoration 8"-"decoration" “8” is selected at a rate of 1%, and “decoration 9”-“decoration 9”-“decoration 9” is selected at a rate of 2%. Further, for example, when the combination of decorative symbols that are finally stopped and displayed is “decoration 7” − “decoration 7” − “decoration 7”, “decoration 0” is used as the combination of decorative symbols when temporarily stopped. -"Decoration 0"-"decoration 0" is 1%, "decoration 1"-"decoration 1"-"decoration 1" is 2%, "decoration 2"-"decoration 2"-"decoration 2" is 1%, “Decoration 3” — “Decoration 3” — “Decoration 3” is 0%, “Decoration 4” — “Decoration 4” — “Decoration 4” is 1%, “Decoration 5” — “Decoration 5” — “Decoration 5” 2%, "decoration 6"-"decoration 6"-"decoration 6" 1%, "decoration 7"-"decoration 7"-"decoration 7" 89%, "decoration 8"-"decoration 8"- "Decoration 8" is selected at a rate of 1%, and "Decoration 9"-"Decoration 9"-"Decoration 9" are selected at a rate of 2%. In other words, the combination of three odd-numbered decorative symbols (the combination of the second decorative symbols) is tentatively stopped as compared with the case where the combination is temporarily stopped by the combination of the three even-numbered decorative symbols (the first decorative symbol combination). In the case of stopping, the combination of the decorative pattern of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” or “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” after the third change (third decorative design) It is configured so that it can be confirmed and displayed easily. Thereby, the expectation with respect to the combination of the decoration symbol finally stopped and displayed (determined display) can be varied depending on the type of the temporary stop symbol to be displayed. Also, before the special figure is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 or the second special figure display device 214, it becomes a big hit game in which the third game condition (or the first condition) is likely to be established. You can have a sense of expectation about and improve your interest.

  When the CPU 404 determines the combination of decorative symbols when temporarily stopping in step S3093d as described above, the first sub-control unit decorative symbol determining process is terminated.

On the other hand, when the CPU 404 determines in step S3093b that the acquired information is information indicating the stop symbol of the special figure 2 (step S3093b: YES), the CPU 404 displays the stop based on the decorative symbol determination table for the special figure 2 The combination of decorative symbols to be determined is determined (step S3093e).
FIG. 97 (c) is a diagram showing a special bonus 2 big hit decoration symbol determination table.

When the stop symbol of special figure 2 is from “special figure A” to “special figure D”, the special figure 2 jackpot decoration symbol determination table shown in FIG. 97 (c) is referred to. The special figure 2 jackpot decoration symbol determination table is stored in the ROM 406 of the first sub-control unit 400, for example.

  For example, the CPU 404 extracts a dedicated random number value that is stored in the RAM 408 and whose numerical value is updated in the range of 0 to 99, and displays a combination of the decorative pattern that is fixedly displayed from the stop symbol of the special figure 2 and the extracted random number value. decide. In the present embodiment, in the special figure 2, any of the “special figure A” to “special figure D” is established by winning the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) during the big hit game. Since it is a stop symbol that is a 15R special big hit that the third game condition (or the first condition) is likely to be established, the combination of the decorative symbols to be stopped and displayed is “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” Or it is comprised so that it may become "decoration 7"-"decoration 7"-"decoration 7". That is, when the stop symbol of Special Figure 2 is a stop symbol that is a big hit ("Special Figure A" to "Special Figure D"), the combination of the decorative symbols to be displayed for stoppage is always "decoration 3"-"decoration 3". "-" Decoration 3 "or" decoration 7 "-" decoration 7 "-" decoration 7 ". The selection ratio of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” and “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is 50%, but the selection ratios are different. You may do it.

  In addition, when the stop symbol of special figure 2 is “special figure E” and “special figure F”, that is, when it is a lost symbol, for example, the fluctuation determined as described above in the first embodiment. The combination of decorative symbols to be stopped and displayed is determined in accordance with the time and the effect mode on the decorative symbol display device 208. In the present embodiment, in the decorative symbol display on the decorative symbol display device 208 corresponding to the symbol variable display on the second special symbol display device 214, the reach state is “decoration 3” or “decoration 7”. In this case, a combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” or “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is surely displayed. When the stop symbol of the special figure 2 is a lost symbol, the combination of the decorative symbols is determined so that the reach state by the “decoration 3” and the “decoration 7” is not formed.

  When the combination of the decorative symbols to be confirmed and displayed is determined as described above in step S3093e, the CPU 404 determines the combination of decorative symbols to be temporarily stopped (step S3093f).

  FIG. 97 (d) is a diagram showing a temporary stop symbol lottery table when “333” and “777” for special figure 2 are selected.

  Specifically, the combination of the decorative symbols to be stopped and displayed is a combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” and “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7”. In this case, a combination of decorative symbols for temporary stop is determined with reference to the temporary stop symbol lottery table for selecting special chart 2 “333” and “777” shown in FIG. 97 (d). The temporary stop symbol lottery table at the time of selecting “333” and “777” for the special figure 2 is stored in the ROM 406 of the first sub-control unit 400, for example.

  For example, the CPU 404 extracts a dedicated random number value that is stored in the RAM 408 and whose numerical value is updated within a range of 0 to 99, and finally stops temporarily from a combination of decorative symbols that are stopped and displayed and the extracted random number value. Determine the combination of decorative symbols when For example, when the combination of decorative symbols that are finally stopped and displayed is “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3”, the combination of the decorative symbols when temporarily stopping is “decoration 0”-“ "Decoration 0"-"decoration 0" is 4%, "decoration 1"-"decoration 1"-"decoration 1" is 10%, "decoration 2"-"decoration 2"-"decoration 2" is 4%, "decoration" 3 ”-“ decoration 3 ”-“ decoration 3 ”is 50%,“ decoration 4 ”-“ decoration 4 ”-“ decoration 4 ”is 4%,“ decoration 5 ”-“ decoration 5 ”-“ decoration 5 ”is 10% %, "Decoration 6"-"decoration 6"-"decoration 6" is 4%, "decoration 7"-"decoration 7"-"decoration 7" is 0%, "decoration 8"-"decoration 8"-"decoration" 8 ”is 4%,“ decoration 9 ”-“ decoration 9 ”-“ decoration 9 ”is 10%

% Selected. Further, for example, when the combination of decorative symbols that are finally stopped and displayed is “decoration 7” − “decoration 7” − “decoration 7”, “decoration 0” is used as the combination of decorative symbols when temporarily stopped. -"Decoration 0"-"decoration 0" 4%, "decoration 1"-"decoration 1"-"decoration 1" 10%, "decoration 2"-"decoration 2"-"decoration 2" 4%, "Decoration 3"-"decoration 3"-"decoration 3" is 00%, "decoration 4"-"decoration 4"-"decoration 4" is 4%, "decoration 5"-"decoration 5"-"decoration 5" 10%, "decoration 6"-"decoration 6"-"decoration 6" 4%, "decoration 7"-"decoration 7"-"decoration 7" 50%, "decoration 8"-"decoration 8"- "Decoration 8" is selected at a rate of 4%, and "Decoration 9"-"Decoration 9"-"Decoration 9" are selected at a rate of 10%. In other words, the combination of three odd-numbered decorative symbols (the combination of the second decorative symbols) is tentatively stopped as compared with the case where the combination is temporarily stopped by the combination of the three even-numbered decorative symbols (the first decorative symbol combination). In the case of stopping, the combination of the decorative pattern of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” or “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” after the third change (third decorative design) (Combinations) are easy to stop (determined display).

  In the present embodiment, when the reach state is formed by “decoration 3” and “decoration 7” in the variable display of FIG. 2, “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” or “decoration 7” is surely formed. A combination of decorative symbols of “-decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is derived and displayed. Therefore, in the case of performing a lost reach effect in the decorative symbol display on the decorative symbol display device 208 corresponding to the symbol variable display on the second special symbol display device 214, other than “decoration 3” and “decoration 7”. It is necessary to form a reach state with the decorative pattern. However, when the stop symbol of Special Figure 2 is a stop symbol that is a big hit, the combination of the decorative symbols to be stopped and displayed is always "decoration 3"-"decoration 3"-"decoration 3" or "decoration 7"- It is comprised so that it may become "decoration 7"-"decoration 7". For this reason, in the present embodiment, the combination of three decorative symbols, other than “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” and “decoration 7” — “decoration 7” — “decoration 7”. A combination of decorative symbols can be set as a temporary stop symbol, and the decorative symbols “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” and “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” are displayed by changing display. By providing a function for deriving and displaying the combination of the above, when the stop symbol of the special figure 2 becomes a lost symbol, the reach state may be formed by a decorative symbol other than “decoration 3” and “decoration 7”. Thus, it is possible to display effects that are not necessarily lost, and it is possible to improve the interest in the symbol variation display in the second special symbol display device 214.

  When the CPU 404 determines the combination of decorative symbols when temporarily stopping in step S3093f as described above, the first sub-control unit decorative symbol determining process is terminated.

  In the present embodiment, the combination of the decorative symbol to be stopped and displayed is determined from the stop symbol of the special symbol 1 or the special symbol 2 and the extracted random number value. However, the special symbol variation time included in the symbol variation start command is determined. It may be determined on the basis of information representing.

  In the present embodiment, in order to draw lots about whether or not to execute the normal notice and the notice mode when the notice is executed in the normal notice lottery process executed in step S3092e of the change start sub-side notice execution process shown in FIG. The notice lottery table used is provided. The notice lottery table includes a game state (a special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, a special figure high probability general figure high probability state) and a special figure display device (first display) A plurality of special figure display devices 212 and second special figure display devices 214) are provided.

  FIG. 98 (a) shows the special figure 1 low probability notice lottery table. FIG. 98B is a diagram showing the special figure 2 high-probability notice lottery table. FIG. 99 (a) is a diagram showing a special drawing 2 low probability electric support notice lottery table. FIG. 99 (b) is a special drawing 2 low probability notice lottery table.

FIG. These notice lottery tables are stored in the ROM 406 of the first sub-control unit 400, for example.

  The special figure 1 low probability notice lottery table is a table used when the symbol variation display is performed on the first special figure display device 212 in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state. The special figure 2 high-probability notice lottery table is a table that is used when symbol variation display is performed on the second special figure display device 214 in the special figure high-probability normal figure high-probability state. The special figure 2 low probability electric support notice lottery table is a table used when the symbol variation display is performed on the second special figure display device 214 in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state. The special figure 2 low-probability notice lottery table is a table used when symbol variation display is performed on the second special figure display device 214 in the special figure low-probability normal figure low-probability state.

  In particular, the special figure 2 low-probability lottery table is used less frequently than other notice lottery tables, and the special figure 2 suspension that remains when the electric support state ends is mainly It is used when the symbol variation display is performed after the support state is completed, that is, based on the reserved digest of the special figure 2 in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state. In the special figure low-probability normal figure low-probability state, the "normal figure A" which is a hit symbol is stopped and displayed on the universal figure display device 210, and the blade member 2321 of the second special figure starting port 232 is opened. This is also used when the special figure 2 is put on hold at the second special figure starting port 232 and the symbol variation display is executed based on this. That is, the special figure 2 low-probability notice lottery table can be said to be a notice lottery table that can be used only under specific circumstances.

  For example, the CPU 404 selects a notice lottery table according to the control state and the special-figure display device that is variably displayed, and extracts a dedicated random number value that is stored in the RAM 408 and whose numerical value is updated in the range of 0 to 99. As described above, the symbol variation start command includes information representing the special symbol variation time, and the notice mode (from the timer number specified from the information representing the special symbol variation time and the extracted random number value) Any one of “preliminary notice P” to “preliminary notice S” is selected (or the notice is not selected). Here, the notice modes of “notice P” to “notice S” are display notices such as a character notice in the decorative symbol display device 208, sound notices for outputting notice sounds from the speaker 120, and lamps by blinking of various lamps 418. A notice or a notice by a movable body can be cited as an example, but various kinds of notices can be adopted, and one or a combination of two or more of these may be used. Moreover, the content of the notice mentioned above is an example, and is not limited to these. In the following description, the notice modes of “notice P” to “notice S” will be described as a notice regarding the special figure during the change display (the change notice), but can be applied to a pre-read notice. The contents of the effect on the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) corresponding to the variation time and the game state corresponding to the timer number shown in each notice lottery table in FIGS. 98 and 99 are shown in FIG. 59 (d). Since it is the same as that described above, a detailed description thereof is omitted here. Here, the fluctuation time of the timer number 7 is set to 5 seconds longer than the fluctuation time of the timer number 6, and the fluctuation time of the timer number 9 is set to 5 seconds longer than the fluctuation time of the timer number 8. This is the time provided for executing the above-described re-variation display after performing the effect corresponding to timer number 6 (or timer number 8) and displaying the temporary stop symbol.

  For example, in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, when the symbol variation display is performed on the first special figure display device 212, the special figure 1 low probability notice lottery table shown in FIG. 98 (a) is selected. Is done. Then, the notice mode is selected from the timer number and the extracted random number value. Specifically, when a super-short jackpot corresponding to timer number 1 is executed by the symbol variation start command, “notice R” is executed at a rate of 1%, and a normal notice is executed at a rate of 99%. It is decided not to. In addition, when the shortening error corresponding to the timer number 3 is executed, it is determined that the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 100%. Also, the communication corresponding to timer number 4

In the case where the normal deviation is executed, it is determined that the “notice P” is executed at a rate of 40% and the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 60%. When the normal reach deviation corresponding to the timer number 5 is executed, the “notice P” is executed at a rate of 20%, the “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 3%, and is normally set at a rate of 77%. It is decided not to carry out the notice. When the SP reach A deviation corresponding to the timer number 6 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 10%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 2%, and a rate of 88% In general, it is decided not to execute the advance notice. When SP reach A jackpot corresponding to timer number 7 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 50%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 49%, and “notice R” is executed. Is executed at a rate of 1%. Further, when the SP reach B corresponding to the timer number 8 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 6%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 4%, and a rate of 90% In general, it is decided not to execute the advance notice. When SP reach B jackpot corresponding to timer number 9 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 70%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 29%, and “notice R” is executed. Is executed at a rate of 1%.

  In addition, in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state, when the symbol variation display is performed on the second special figure display device 214, the special figure 2 high probability notice lottery table shown in FIG. 98 (b) is selected. Is done. Then, the notice mode is selected from the timer number and the extracted random number value. Specifically, when a super-shortening jackpot corresponding to timer number 1 is executed by the symbol variation start command, “notice S” is executed at a rate of 1%, and a normal notice is executed at a rate of 99%. It is decided not to. Further, when the super shortening corresponding to the timer number 2 is executed, it is determined not to execute the normal notice at a rate of 100%. Further, when the battle gasase tilt 1 corresponding to the timer number 4 is executed, it is determined that the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 100%. Further, when the battle gasase tilt 2 corresponding to the timer number 5 is executed, it is determined that the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 100%. When the battle A defeat corresponding to the timer number 6 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 20%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 10%, and at a rate of 70%. It is decided not to execute the normal notice. When a battle A victory corresponding to timer number 7 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 40%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 30%, and “notice S” is set. It is determined that the notification is executed at a rate of 20%, and the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 10%.

  In addition, in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, when the symbol variation display is performed on the second special figure display device 214, the special figure 2 low probability electric support notice lottery table shown in FIG. 99 (a). Is selected. Then, the notice mode is selected from the timer number and the extracted random number value. Specifically, when a super shortened jackpot corresponding to timer number 1 is executed by the symbol variation start command, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 1%, and “notice Q” is a rate of 1%. It is determined that “notice S” is executed at a rate of 1%, and the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 97%. In addition, when the super shortening corresponding to the timer number 2 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 1%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 1%, and at a rate of 98%. It is decided not to execute the normal notice. Further, when the battle gasase tilt 1 corresponding to the timer number 4 is executed, it is determined that the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 100%. Further, when the battle gasase tilt 2 corresponding to the timer number 5 is executed, it is determined that the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 100%. When the battle A defeat corresponding to the timer number 6 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 20%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 10%, and at a rate of 70%. It is decided not to execute the normal notice. When a battle A victory corresponding to timer number 7 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 40%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 30%, and “notice S” is set. It is determined that the notification is executed at a rate of 20%, and the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 10%. Further, when the battle B defeat corresponding to the timer number 8 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 10%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 10%, and at a rate of 80%. It is decided not to execute the normal notice. When a battle B victory corresponding to timer number 9 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 40%.

Then, it is determined that “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 30%, “notice S” is executed at a rate of 20%, and the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 10%.

  In addition, in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, when the symbol variation display is performed on the second special figure display device 214, the special figure 2 low probability notice lottery table shown in FIG. 99 (b) is selected. Is done. Then, the notice mode is selected from the timer number and the extracted random number value. Specifically, when a super-short jackpot corresponding to timer number 1 is executed by the symbol variation start command, “notice R” is executed at a rate of 1%, and a normal notice is executed at a rate of 99%. It is decided not to. In addition, when the shortening error corresponding to the timer number 3 is executed, it is determined that the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 100%. Further, when the normal deviation corresponding to the timer number 4 is executed, it is determined that “notice P” is executed at a rate of 40% and that the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 60%. Further, when the normal reach deviation corresponding to the timer number 5 is executed, it is determined that “notice P” is executed at a rate of 20% and that the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 80%. Further, when the SP reach A deviation corresponding to the timer number 6 is executed, it is determined that “notice P” is executed at a rate of 10% and that the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 90%. When SP reach A jackpot corresponding to timer number 7 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 50%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 49%, and “notice R” is executed. Is executed at a rate of 1%. When the SP reach B deviation corresponding to the timer number 8 is executed, it is determined that the “notice P” is executed at a rate of 6% and the normal notice is not executed at a rate of 94%. When SP reach B jackpot corresponding to timer number 9 is executed, “notice P” is executed at a rate of 70%, “notice Q” is executed at a rate of 29%, and “notice R” is executed. Is executed at a rate of 1%.

  In this way, in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, when the “notice R” is executed, the jackpot symbol is always stopped and displayed. That is, “Notice R” is a jackpot confirmation notice. Further, the “notice R” is a special notice mode that can be executed only in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state. Furthermore, in a normal game, in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, since the symbol variation display on the second special figure display device 214 is hardly performed, the “notice R” is almost always the first special figure. It can be said that this is a special notice mode that can be executed only in the symbol variation display on the display device 212. It should be noted that the “notice R” may be implemented only when the symbol form of the special figure to be stopped becomes “special figure A” and “special figure B” with 15R special jackpots. “Notice R” can be said to correspond to the first effect suggesting that the second state starts after the big hit game. Alternatively, the “notice R” corresponds to a first effect that suggests that the third game condition (first condition) is likely to be satisfied when a game ball wins the second variable prize opening 235. You can also.

  Further, in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state and the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, when the symbol change display is performed on the second special figure display device 214, the “notice S” is executed. Always stops and displays the 15R special jackpot symbol. That is, “notice S” is a 15R special jackpot finalizing notice, and can be said to correspond to a first effect that suggests that the second state is started after the jackpot game. Alternatively, the “notice S” corresponds to a first effect that suggests that a game ball wins the second variable prize opening 235 and the third game condition (first condition) is likely to be satisfied. You can also The “notice S” is a special notice mode that can be executed only in the normal high probability state (electric support state).

  In addition, the “notice Q” indicates that the symbol of the 15R special jackpot is always displayed only when the symbol variation display on the second symbol display device 214 is performed in the special symbol low probability low symbol probability state (first situation). The notice mode is displayed in a stopped state. That is, the “notice Q” is a 15R special jackpot finalizing notice in the first situation, and can be said to correspond to a first effect suggesting that the second state is started after the jackpot game. Alternatively, the “notice Q” is the second variable prize opening 235.

It can also be said that this corresponds to a first effect that suggests that the third game condition (first condition) is likely to be established by winning the game ball.

  In the present embodiment, the “notice R” is a notice that may be executed in the first game state (for example, the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state), and the second game state (for example, the special game state, for example, This is an example of the first notice that is not executed in the high probability normal figure high probability state or the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state.

  Further, the “notice S” is an example of a second notice that may be executed in the second gaming state and is not executed in the first gaming state.

  In the present embodiment, in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state and the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, the symbol variation display on the first special figure display device 212 is hardly performed. Under normal conditions, the lottery of the normal notice using the notice lottery table is not performed, and any notice is not executed, but the notice is executed by performing the lottery of the normal notice using the notice lottery table. You may comprise.

  In the present embodiment, the 15R special jackpot notice (so-called premium notice) is configured to be executable, but a 15R jackpot notice other than the 15R special jackpot may be configured to be executable. Further, in the present embodiment, the notification can be executed regardless of the type of jackpot, but only the 15R special jackpot notice may be performed, or only the 15R jackpot notice other than the 15R special jackpot may be performed. It may be. In this embodiment, the jackpot notice that is not a premium notice may be an example of the second effect.

Next, a specific effect example in the pachinko machine of the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 101 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the present embodiment. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 101 (1), “decoration 4”-“decoration 1”-“decoration 6”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, is fixedly displayed. Further, the first special figure 1 hold display h11 and the second special figure 1 hold display h12, which indicate the hold of the special figure 1, are both displayed in the default display mode.

  101 also shows a first special figure display device 212, a first special figure hold lamp 218, a second special figure display device 214, and a second special figure hold lamp 220. In FIG. 101 (1), since the number of hold of the variable display in FIG. 1 is two, two lamps in the first special figure hold lamp 218 are lit.

  In addition, on the first special figure display device 212 and the second special figure display device 214, the special symbol “special drawing E” is stopped and displayed. In the upper right corner portion of the decorative symbol display device 208, the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 variably displayed corresponding to the display state of the first special symbol display device 212 and the display state of the second special symbol display device 214. The special figure 2 and the 4th symbol t2 variably displayed are displayed. In FIG. 101 (1), for the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1, for example, the “x” which is a lost symbol is stopped corresponding to the “special symbol E” which is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212. It is displayed in the displayed state. The special symbol 2 and the fourth symbol t2 are in a state where, for example, the “x” which is a lost symbol is stopped and displayed in correspondence with the “special symbol E” which is stopped and displayed on the second special symbol display device 214. It is displayed. In FIG. 101 and subsequent figures, the special symbol 1 and the 4th symbol t1 and the special symbol 2 and the 4th symbol t2 are displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 in such a manner that the symbol that is stopped and displayed can be recognized. However, in practice, in order to improve the interest of the game, it is preferable that the symbols that are stopped and displayed are displayed in a manner that is difficult for the player to recognize.

  The touch-sensitive display device 209 has a plurality of touch detection areas set so as to be arranged in a 4 × 6 matrix. In the present embodiment, the touch detection area to which the touched position belongs can be determined from the detection result of the touch position by the player.

It should be noted that the symbol variation display of special figure 1 still continues, and the first special figure display device 212 continues the above-described blinking operation of seven segments.
FIG. 102 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  When the first stop to the third stop of the decorative symbols are performed as described above, as shown in FIG. 102 (7), the symbols are stopped in the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display area 208c, respectively. The displayed decorative design begins to fluctuate.

  Thereafter, at the timing when the fluctuation time elapses, as shown in FIG. 102 (8), the special symbol E, which is a lost symbol, is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212, and the fourth symbol of the special symbol 1 is displayed. At t 1, “L”, which is a lost symbol, is stopped and displayed in correspondence with “Special Figure E” stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212. Correspondingly, a combination of “decoration 3”-“decoration 2”-“decoration 8” decoration symbols is stopped (determined display) on the ornamental symbol display device 208, and a variable game of one special symbol is displayed. finish. As described above, the effect display in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIGS. 101 (1) to 102 (8) shows an example of an effect display that is normally out of order with a 10 second variation time.

  In the following specific production examples, explanation is given on the assumption that the decorative symbol display device 208 performs variable display of decorative symbols in the order shown in FIGS. 101 (1) to 102 (7). Some illustrations may be omitted for convenience.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 102 (9), the hold of special figure 1 is digested and the hold display disappears, the first special figure display device 212 starts the symbol variation display, and the decorative symbol display device 208 also displays the decorative symbol and special figure. 1 Fluctuation display of the 4th symbol t1 is started.

  After that, as shown in FIG. 102 (10), after the variable symbol display on the decorative symbol display device 208 is displayed at high speed, the touch panel type display device 209 provides a notice that the notice is started. As a start effect, together with a child panda character with a fan, an image of an elliptical touch button and a character (character information) “Take a notice by touch” to promote touch operation on the touch button are displayed. .

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 102 (11), the decoration symbol display device 208 performs the first stop, and “decoration 3” is stopped and displayed in the left symbol display area 208a.

Specifically, the 9th to 11th and 15th to 17th touch detection areas shown in FIG. 101 (1) are set as the touch effective area TA1. In FIG. 102 (11), the touch effective area TA1 is surrounded by a broken line. In the example shown in FIG. 102 (11), the shape of the touch effective area TA1 is different from the area where the touch button image is displayed, but the area where the touch button image is displayed. The same shape may be used.

  It should be noted that the stop display of the decorative symbol by the decorative symbol display device 208 and the setting of the touch effective area TA1 in the touch panel display device 209 may be performed simultaneously or substantially simultaneously, or the timing may be changed. Good. In this case, the touch effective area TA1 may be set after the decoration symbol stop display is performed, or the decoration symbol stop display may be performed after the touch effective area TA1 is set. The above also applies to the following specific examples.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 102 (12), the decoration symbol display device 208 performs the second stop, stops the “decoration 3” in the right symbol display area 208c, and forms a reach state. On the other hand, FIG. 102 (12) shows a state where the player is performing a touch operation on the touch effective area TA1 in the touch panel display device 209. Needless to say, the timing of the touch operation by the player may be the same timing as the timing of the second stop of the decorative symbol or the timing before and after.
103 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 103 (13), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the character (character information) “Leach” for notifying that the reach state has been formed. On the other hand, in the touch panel type display device 209, as a result of the touch operation performed on the touch effective area TA1 by the player, the character of the number length is displayed together with the character information suggesting that a chance may come. Is called. The display of the character with the longest length corresponds to an example of the “notice Q” described above.

  It should be noted that the decorative symbol stop display by the decorative symbol display device 208 and the character display on the touch panel display device 209 may be performed simultaneously or substantially simultaneously, or the timing may be changed. In this case, the character may be displayed after the decorative symbol is stopped and displayed, or the decorative symbol may be stopped after the character is displayed. The above also applies to the following specific examples.

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 103 (14), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs a display that develops into super reach. This super reach is, for example, SP reach B. In the super reach state, the decorative symbols displayed in the left symbol display area 208a, middle symbol display area 208b, and right symbol display area 208c are displayed small in the upper left corner, and the main character and the enemy swordsman face each other. A screen is displayed.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 103 (15), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a cut-in screen in which the hero's lord tells the start of the game superimposed on the screen where the hero's lord and the enemy swordsman face each other. .

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 103 (16), on the decorative symbol display device 208, a screen is displayed in which the main character defeats the enemy swordsman and wins, and in the approximate center of the decorative symbol display device 208, “Decoration 3” scheduled to be stopped and displayed is displayed in the symbol display area 208b, and it is notified that the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” is scheduled to be temporarily stopped. The On the other hand, on the touch panel type display device 209, a character (character information) “Yataze” congratulating that three identical decorative symbols will be arranged is displayed. Note that the display timing of the characters “Yataze” on the touch-panel display device 209 may be the same as the winning screen on the decorative symbol display device 208 or may be displayed before and after. Good. In the present embodiment, when the temporary stop display is performed with a combination of “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” — “decoration 3”, it is promised that 15R will be a special jackpot as described above. It can be said that the display as shown in FIG. 103 (16) corresponds to the first effect suggesting that the second state is started after the big hit game. Or it can correspond to the 1st production which suggests that a game ball wins to the 2nd variable prize opening 235, and the 3rd game condition (1st condition) is easy to be established. The same applies to the case where the temporary stop display is made with a combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7”.

  When the first stop to the third stop of the decorative symbols are performed as described above, as shown in FIG. 103 (17), the decorative symbol display device 208 has a left symbol display region 208a, a middle symbol display region 208b, and The decorative symbols temporarily stopped and displayed in the right symbol display area 208c start to fluctuate. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a character (character information) “re-change” which notifies that re-change display is started. It should be noted that the symbol variation display of special figure 1 still continues, and the first special figure display device 212 continues the above-described blinking operation of seven segments. In addition, the display timing of the character “re-change” on the touch panel type display device 209 may be the same as the start timing of the fluctuation variation of the decorative symbol on the decorative symbol display device 208, or may be before and after. Good. In the present embodiment, since the temporary stop display is performed with a combination of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” decoration symbols, it is promised that 15R will be a special big hit, so FIG. 103 (17). As shown in FIG. 1, the temporary stop display with the combination of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” is a first indication that the second state starts after the big hit game. It can be said that it corresponds to the production of. Or it can correspond to the 1st production which suggests that a game ball wins to the 2nd variable prize opening 235, and the 3rd game condition (1st condition) is easy to be established. The same applies to the case where a temporary stop display is made with a combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7”.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 103 (18), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the decorative symbols that have been fluctuated in the left symbol display region 208a, the middle symbol display region 208b, and the right symbol display region 208c are rapidly changed all at once. The re-variable display to be displayed is started.
104 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG. 103.

  FIG. 104 (19) shows a state where re-variation display is performed on the decorative symbol display device 208. At this time, it is determined in advance that the combination of decorative patterns of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” or “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is finally stopped and displayed.

On the other hand, in the touch panel type display device 209, as a result of the re-variable display, the decoration pattern of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” or “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is displayed. The character “Lucky” (character information) for notifying that the combination of the two is derived and displayed is displayed. In this embodiment, the promotion effect is implemented in this way. It should be noted that the symbol variation display of special figure 1 still continues, and the first special figure display device 212 continues the above-described blinking operation of seven segments. In addition, the display timing of the character “Lucky” on the touch panel type display device 209 may be the same as the start timing of the fluctuation variation of the decorative symbol on the decorative symbol display device 208, or may be before or after. In the present embodiment, as a result of the re-variable display being performed, a promotion effect in which a combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” is derived and displayed is performed. It can be said that such promotion effect corresponds to the first effect suggesting that the second state is started after the big hit game. Or it can correspond to the 1st production which suggests that a game ball wins to the 2nd variable prize opening 235, and the 3rd game condition (1st condition) is easy to be established. The same applies to the promotion effect in which the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is derived and displayed.

After that, as shown in FIG. 104 (21), the special figure display device 212 stops and displays “Special figure A”, which is a 15R big hit symbol, at the timing when the fluctuation time elapses. In the symbol t1, “A”, which is a 15R jackpot symbol, is stopped and displayed in correspondence with the “special symbol A” that is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212. Correspondingly, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a combination of decorative symbols “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” (determined display), and one special game of variable game is displayed. finish. As described above, the effect display in the decorative symbol display device 208 from FIGS. 102 (9) to 104 (21) shows an example of the effect display of SP reach B jackpot having a variation time of 65 seconds. In the present embodiment, when the stop display (decision display) is performed with a combination of “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” — “decoration 3”, it is promised that 15R will be a special big hit. It can be said that such a display corresponds to the first effect suggesting that the second state is started after the big hit game. Or it can correspond to the 1st production which suggests that a game ball wins to the 2nd variable prize opening 235, and the 3rd game condition (1st condition) is easy to be established. The same applies to the case where the display is stopped (determined display) with a combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 7” − “decoration 7” − “decoration 7”.

  Next, another example of the re-variable display described above will be described. Here, FIGS. 104 (17a) to 104 (20a) show other effects examples corresponding to the effects shown in FIGS. 103 (17) to 104 (20).

A state in which the swing variation is performed in a state where three identical decorative symbols are arranged in the left symbol display region 208a, the middle symbol display region 208b, and the right symbol display region 208c via the reach effect such as SP reach B described above. Is shown. In this production example, “decoration 4” is stopped and displayed in the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c, respectively, and after reaching the reach effect, “decoration 4” is displayed in the middle symbol display area 208b. As shown in FIG. 104 (17a), the temporary stop display state is displayed. In the state shown in FIG. 104 (17a), as described above with reference to FIG. 97, it is promised that it will be a big hit, but whether or not it will be a 15R special big hit is still a promised state. It is not. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a character (character information) of “it is re-variation” informing that re-variation display is started.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 104 (18a), the re-variable display as shown in FIG. 103 (18) and described above is started.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 104 (20a), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the decorative symbol “decoration 3” in the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display area 208c. Start fluctuation. On the other hand, in the touch panel type display device 209, as a result of the re-variable display, the decoration pattern of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” or “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is displayed. The character “Lucky” (character information) for notifying that the combination of the two is derived and displayed is displayed. In this embodiment, the promotion effect can also be implemented in this way. It should be noted that the symbol variation display of special figure 1 still continues, and the first special figure display device 212 continues the above-described blinking operation of seven segments. In the present embodiment, as a result of the re-variable display being performed, a promotion effect in which a combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” is derived and displayed is performed. It can be said that such promotion effect corresponds to the first effect suggesting that the second state is started after the big hit game. Or it can correspond to the 1st production which suggests that a game ball wins to the 2nd variable prize opening 235, and the 3rd game condition (1st condition) is easy to be established. The same applies to the promotion effect in which the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is derived and displayed. After the effect as shown in FIG. 104 (20a) has been performed, as shown in FIG. 104 (21), the 15R special big hit symbol “ "Special Figure A" is stopped and displayed, and Special Figure 1 4th symbol t1 is a 15R special big hit symbol corresponding to "Special Figure A" stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212. “A” is stopped and displayed. Correspondingly, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a combination of decorative symbols “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” (determined display), and one special game of variable game is displayed. finish.

  In the above-described effect example, it goes without saying that the above-described promotion confirmation notification may be performed during the re-variable display.

  Next, specific examples of effects in the jackpot game of 15R special jackpot will be described. In the following description, an example of an effect in a jackpot game that starts when “Special Figure A” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 will be described.

"" Can be applied in the same manner to the effect in the jackpot game that starts with the stop display.

  FIG. 105 is a diagram showing a specific effect example in the jackpot game of 15R special jackpot.

  As described above, when “Special Figure A” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. It is displayed that the game is in the first round, and the player operates the ball launch handle 134 to the maximum extent (rotates) to roll the game ball to the right side of the game area 124 (hereinafter “right-handed”). Is displayed). In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. On the other hand, in the touch panel type display device 209, when a touch effect is generated in the big hit game together with the child panda character having a fan, the second variable winning opening 235 is likely to win a prize in the 15th round (third game condition ( Alternatively, the character information indicating that the chance that the first condition) is likely to be satisfied is reached is displayed.

  When the round progresses as described above and becomes the 12th round, as shown in FIG. 105 (2), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the 12th round of the big hit game.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 105 (3), the decoration symbol display device 208 displays the opening of the Janken game effect. Specifically, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the bancho character and the panda character are displayed side by side, and if the bancho is a panda and the bancho wins the janken, the second variable prize is received in the 15th round. A display indicating that a great chance to enter the state in which the mouth 235 easily wins (a state in which the third game condition (or the first condition) is likely to be established) has arrived is displayed. At this time, the display for instructing right-handing is continued, but is displayed small on the upper right side of the decorative symbol display device 208. On the other hand, on the touch panel type display device 209, a character (character information) “select by touch” which is an instruction to perform a touch operation on the touch panel 209b to select is displayed. The effect shown in FIG. 105 (3) may be executed when a predetermined time has passed since the 12th round, or may be executed simultaneously with the 12th round. Also good.

  Subsequently, at the 13th round, as shown in FIG. 105 (4), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the 13th round of the jackpot game. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, a character (character information) “Choose with a touch panel”, which is an instruction to perform a touch operation on the touch panel 209b of the touch panel type display device 209, is displayed. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays the “goo” janken symbol, the “choki” janken symbol, and the “par” janken symbol, and enables touch operation for each janken symbol. Areas TA2 to TA4 are set. In FIG. 105 (4) and FIG. 105 (5), the touch effective areas TA2 to TA4 are respectively surrounded by broken lines. Specifically, the 13th, 14th, 19th and 20th touch detection areas shown in FIG. 101 (1) corresponding to the “good” Janken symbol are set as the touch effective area TA2, and The touch detection areas of No. 3, No. 4, No. 9, and No. 10 corresponding to the Janken symbol are set as the touch effective area TA3, and No. 17, 18, No. 23, and No. 24 corresponding to the “Par” Janken symbol. No. touch detection area is set as the touch effective area TA4.

  In addition, the display timing of the character information “Choose on the touch panel”, the display timing of each Janken symbol, and the setting timing of the touch effective areas TA2 to TA4 may be the same as the 13th round, Timing after the 13th round

It may be. These may be performed all at the same time, may be performed at different timings, or only two of them may be performed at the same time. Further, the order of executing these can be set as appropriate. The same applies to the following description.

  Thereafter, at the timing shown in FIG. 105 (5), the player performs a touch operation on the touch effective area TA4 in the touch panel display device 209. That is, the player performs a touch operation on the touch effective area TA4 in order to select the “par” Janken symbol.

Then, as shown in FIG. 105 (6), the decorative symbol display device 208 uses the character “character that wins with par” to indicate that the player will win the game with the “Janken” symbol selected by the player (character “Par”). Information) is displayed. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a large “Jan” symbol of “Par”, which is the Janken symbol selected by the player.
FIG. 106 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  Thereafter, when the 14th round is reached, as shown in FIG. 106 (7), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that the 14th round of the jackpot game and the Janken game is started. The characters (character information) are displayed. Note that the longest character and the panda character that were displayed side by side are displayed separately from each other. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a character (character information) indicating a sense of expectation for winning the Janken game together with a child panda character having a fan.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 106 (8), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the character (character information) “HOI” indicating that the Janken game has been executed, and is close to the character of the number-long character. The “Par” Janken symbol selected by the player is displayed at the position, and the “Go” Janken symbol defeated by “Par” is displayed at a position close to the panda character. On the other hand, on the touch panel type display device 209, a character (character information) of “win” indicating that the Janken game has been won is displayed. In the present embodiment, when an effect of winning the victory is performed, the state in which the second variable winning opening 235 easily wins in the 15th round (the state where the third game condition (or the first condition) is likely to be established). It can be said that such an effect corresponds to the first effect that suggests that the second state starts after the big hit game. Or it can correspond to the 1st production which suggests that a game ball wins to the 2nd variable prize opening 235, and the 3rd game condition (1st condition) is easy to be established.

  Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 106 (9), the decorative symbol display device 208 notifies the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) to win in the next round, that is, the 15th round. Made. This notification is a notification for obtaining a probability change, that is, for establishing the third game condition (or the first condition). On the other hand, on the touch panel type display device 209, a character (character information) “do not stop firing” is displayed to instruct not to stop the firing of the game ball. As a result, even if the second variable winning opening 235 is in a state where it is easy to win, it is possible to reduce the possibility of incurring the disadvantage of not shifting to the probable state by losing the opportunity to win.

  Thereafter, at the 15th round, as shown in FIG. 106 (10), the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) is opened, and the decorative symbol display device 208 is used at the 15th round of the jackpot game. It is displayed. On the other hand, in the touch panel display device 209,

A character (character information) of “Make an attacker win” indicating that the second attacker is to win a prize is displayed.

Then, if there is a prize for the second attacker at the timing shown in FIG. 106 (11), the third game condition (or the first condition) is established, as shown in FIG. 106 (12). The decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed, together with the long-length character. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a character (character information) of “congratulations” congratulating that the probability change has been confirmed.
FIG. 106 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  When the fifteenth round is completed, as shown in FIG. 107 (13), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs an end effect of the big hit game. In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition (or the first condition) is established by winning the second attacker in the 15th round, so that the symbol variation display is performed 100 times after the jackpot game. In the meantime, it shifts to a probabilistic state (special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state). For this reason, in the end effect of the big hit game, a character (character information) of “probability rushing” to shift to the probability change state is displayed. In this case, the table set used until the next big hit may be determined as described above in the first embodiment, for example.

  When the big hit game is finished as described above, as shown in FIG. 107 (14), the decoration symbol display device 208 is stopped and displayed with a combination of the decoration symbols “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3”. In this state, the state is shifted to a probable change state (a special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state). At this time, the touch panel type display device 209 displays two child panda characters having a fan and displays the remaining number of times “100 times” together with the characters (character information) of “probability change start” for notifying the start of the probability change. Is made. At this time, since neither the holding of special figure 1 nor the holding of special figure 2 exists, it is in a standby state for waiting for symbol variation display. In addition, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “right-handed” characters (character information) prompting right-handing.

Next, another example of the effect in the jackpot game of 15R special jackpot will be described. In the example of the effect described below, a combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” or “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is derived and displayed, and 15R special jackpot This is an example of a performance in a jackpot game that may be executed when it is promised.
FIG. 108 is a diagram showing another effect example in the big hit game of 15R special big hit.

  FIG. 108 (1) shows that “Special Figure A” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, and the decorative symbols “Decoration 3” − “Decoration 3” − “Decoration 3” are displayed on the decorative design display apparatus 208. The contents of the effect when the jackpot game is started after being stopped and displayed in combination. Here, the difference from the example of production shown in FIG. 105 (1) is that the touch panel type display device 209 encourages the player to win the second attacker in the 15th round, “let the attacker win 15R”. Characters (character information) are displayed. Such an effect display is continued until the 13th round, and the effect of the Janken game described above with reference to FIGS. 105 (3) to 106 (9) is omitted.

  After that, when the game progresses to the 14th round, as shown in FIG. 108 (2), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the 14th round of the jackpot game, and the next character is displayed along with the next character. In the round, that is, the fifteenth round, a character (character information) of “Are you ready” is displayed to urge the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) to win a prize. Such a display is used to obtain a probability change, that is, the third game condition (or

, The first condition) is a form of notification. The character information displayed here may be as shown in FIG. 106 (9).

Thereafter, at the fifteenth round, as shown in FIG. 108 (3), the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) is opened, and the decorative symbol display device 208, together with the watchmaster character, plays a big hit game. The 15th round is displayed. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a character (character information) of “Make an attacker win a prize” for promoting the winning of the second attacker. In this production example, the display content displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 in FIG. 106 (10) is slightly different, for example, the point length character is displayed, but in FIG. 106 (10). It may be a display mode as shown.
109 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  If there is a prize for the second attacker at the timing shown in FIG. 108 (4), the decorative symbol display device 208 notifies that the probability variation has been confirmed, as shown in FIG. 109 (5). “V” is displayed. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a character (character information) of “congratulations” congratulating that the probability change has been confirmed. This effect is the same as that described above with reference to FIG.

  When the fifteenth round is completed, after the big hit game end effect is performed in the manner shown in FIG. 109 (6), the probability change state (special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state) is shown in FIG. 109 (7). ). This effect is the same as described above with reference to FIGS. 107 (13) and 107 (14).

  Next, another example of the re-variable display described above will be described. FIG. 110 is a diagram illustrating another example of re-variation display. Here, FIGS. 110 (17b) to 110 (21b) show other examples of effects corresponding to the effects shown in FIGS. 103 (17) to 104 (21).

  In FIG. 110 (17b), the suspension of the special symbol (first suspension) is digested, and the variation display of the decorative symbol on the decorative symbol display device 208 is started together with the start of the symbol variation display on the first special symbol display device 212. A state in which the swing variation is performed in a state where three identical decorative symbols are arranged in the left symbol display region 208a, the middle symbol display region 208b, and the right symbol display region 208c via the reach effect such as SP reach B described above. Is shown. In this production example, “decoration 4” is stopped and displayed in the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c, respectively, and after reaching the reach effect, “decoration 4” is displayed in the middle symbol display area 208b. As shown in FIG. 110 (17b), the display is stopped and the temporary stop display state is entered. In the state shown in FIG. 110 (17b), as described above with reference to FIG. 97, it is promised that it will be a big hit, but whether it will be a 15R special big hit is still in the promised state. It is not. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a character (character information) indicating “re-change” informing that re-change display is started.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 110 (18b), the re-variable display as shown in FIG. 103 (18) and described above is started.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 110 (20b), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the decorative symbol “decoration 4” is displayed in the left symbol display region 208a, the middle symbol display region 208b, and the right symbol display region 208c. Start fluctuation. On the other hand, in the touch panel type display device 209, as a result of the re-variable display, the decoration pattern of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” or “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is displayed. A character (character information) “sorry” for notifying that the combination of the symbols is not derived and displayed is displayed. In addition, the symbol variation display of Special Figure 1 is still

Subsequently, in the first special figure display device 212, the above-described 7-segment blinking operation continues. As described above, in this effect example, the re-variable display is performed, but the decoration pattern of “decoration 3” − “decoration 3” − “decoration 3” or “decoration 7” − “decoration 7” − “decoration 7”. The combination is not derived and displayed, and the promotion failure effect that the promotion fails is performed, and it is not guaranteed that the 15R special big hit will become a promiscuous state after the big hit game. It is suggested that the state shifts to a support state (a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state). Such a promotion failure production can be said to correspond to a second production suggesting that the first state is started after the big hit game. In other words, such a promotion failure effect corresponds to a second effect that suggests that the third game condition (first condition) is difficult to be satisfied.

  Then, after the effect as shown in FIG. 110 (20b) is performed, the special figure 1 is stopped in the first special figure display device 212 as shown in FIG. 110 (21b) at the timing when the variation time elapses. Display is performed. In this effect example, “Special Figure A”, which is a 15R special big hit, is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212. Further, the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 in the decorative symbol display device 208 also have a special 15R special jackpot symbol “A” corresponding to the “special symbol A” stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212. Stopped display. On the other hand, on the decorative symbol display device 208, the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” is stopped (determined). In this way, one special variation game is completed. At this time, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a character (character information) of “expected during jackpot” which suggests that the Janken game is executed in the jackpot game.

  In this way, the combination of three decorative symbols is a combination of decorative symbols, which are “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” and “decoration 7” — “decoration 7” — “decoration 7”. An effect in which a combination of decorative symbols other than the decorative symbol combination is stopped and displayed is not guaranteed to be a 15R special big hit and will be in a promising state after the big hit game, that is, the electric support state ( It is suggested to shift to a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state). Therefore, such an effect corresponds to a second effect that suggests that the first state is started after the big hit game (or that the third game condition (first condition) is difficult to be established). It can be said.

  Next, another example of the effect in the jackpot game of 15R special jackpot will be described. In the example of the effect described below, a combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” is derived and displayed, but “special diagram A” is stopped and displayed on the first special diagram display device 212. This is an effect example showing a state in which a jackpot game of 15R special jackpot is executed.

  FIG. 111 is a diagram showing another example of the effect in the jackpot game of the 15R special jackpot, and FIG. 112 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific example of the example shown in FIG.

The effects in the jackpot game shown in FIG. 111 (1) to FIG. 112 (10) are different except that the combination of the displayed decorative symbols displayed in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 is different. Since it is the same as that described above with reference to FIGS. 105 (1) to 106 (10), description thereof is omitted here. This effect example is a first effect (for example, “decoration 3” − “decoration 3” − “decoration 3”) suggesting that the second state (probability variation state) is started after the big hit game in the symbol variation display. Alternatively, the jackpot game is started without performing the “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” decoration symbol combination display, but in the jackpot game, the first effect (for example, It can be said that it is an example of an effect in which an effect of winning the Janken game is performed. In other words, this effect example suggests that in the symbol variation display, the game ball is awarded to the second variable prize opening 235 and the third game condition (first condition) is likely to be established. The jackpot game is started without performing one effect, but it can be said that the first effect is performed in the jackpot game.

FIG. 112 (11) shows the state of the big hit game in the 15th round. FIG. 112 (11) shows a state immediately before the opened second attacker (second variable prize opening 235) is closed after the opening time has elapsed. Then, when the second variable winning opening 235 is closed in a state where there is no winning in the second variable winning opening 235, an effect as shown in FIG. 112 (12) is performed. That is, in this example, the player won the second variable prize opening 235 for some reason, such as not knowing or forgetting that the player must aim for the second variable prize opening 235 in the 15th round. This is an example in which the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied. As shown in FIG. 112 (12), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “Nothing” which suggests that the third game condition (or the first condition) is not established, along with the display of the character of the bancho. The character (character information) is also displayed. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 also displays a character (character information) “sorry” that rejoices that the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied. In the present embodiment, an effect as shown in FIG. 112 (12) may not be performed.
113 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG.

  Then, when the fifteenth round is completed, as shown in FIG. 113 (13), the end result of the big hit game is performed in the decorative symbol display device 208. In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition (or the first condition) is not established because the winning of the second attacker in the 15th round is not established, so that 50 after the jackpot game. While the symbol variation display is performed for the first time, the electronic support state (special figure low probability normal figure high probability state) is entered. For this reason, in the end effect of the big hit game, a “short time entry” character (character information) indicating the transition to the electric support state is displayed. In this case, the table set used until the next big hit may be determined as described above in the first embodiment, for example. In addition, although the performance as shown in FIG. 113 (13) was a 15R special big hit, the third game condition (or the second game) (or the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker)) was not received. , The first condition) may not be satisfied, and a dedicated effect that is executed only when the big hit game ends in that state and shifts to the electric support state (irregular time shortening) may be used.

  When the big hit game is completed as described above, as shown in FIG. 113 (14), the decorative symbol display device 208 is stopped and displayed with a combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4”. In this state, it is shifted to the electric support state (special figure low probability normal figure high probability state). At this time, only one child panda character with a fan is displayed on the touch panel display device 209, and the remaining number of times “50 times” is displayed together with the characters (character information) of “short time start” to notify the start of time reduction. Display is made. At this time, since neither the holding of special figure 1 nor the holding of special figure 2 exists, it is in a standby state for waiting for symbol variation display. In addition, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “right-handed” characters (character information) prompting right-handing.

  Next, another example of the re-variable display described above will be described. FIG. 114 is a diagram showing another example of re-variation display. 114 (17c) to 114 (21c) are similar to the effects shown in FIGS. 110 (17b) to 110 (21c) and described above, but FIG. 114 (21c). As shown in FIG. 5, “Special figure C” which is 15R big hit which is not 15R special big hit is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, and the special figure 1 fourth figure t1 in the decorative design display device 208 is 15R big hit symbol. The difference is that “C” is stopped and displayed.

  As described above, in this effect example, the re-variable display is performed, but the decoration pattern of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” or “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is used. The combination of is not derived and displayed, and the promotion failure effect that the promotion fails is a 15R special jackpot

It is not guaranteed that it will be in a probable change state after the big hit game, that is, it is suggested that the electric support state (special figure low probability normal figure high probability state) is transferred after the big hit game. Such a promotion failure production can be said to correspond to a second production suggesting that the first state is started after the big hit game. In other words, such a promotion failure effect corresponds to a second effect that suggests that the third game condition (first condition) is difficult to be satisfied.

Also, a combination of three decorative symbols, including “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” — “decoration 3” and “decoration 7” — “decoration 7” — “decoration 7” The effect in which the combination of decorative symbols is stopped and displayed is not guaranteed to be a 15R special big hit and will be in a promising state after the big hit game, that is, the electric support state (special figure low probability normal figure high after the big hit game) (Probability state) is suggested. Therefore, such an effect corresponds to a second effect that suggests that the first state is started after the big hit game (or that the third game condition (first condition) is difficult to be established). It can be said.
Next, specific examples of effects in the 15R jackpot game will be described.

  FIG. 115 is a diagram showing a specific effect example in the big hit game of 15R jackpot, and FIG. 116 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG. In the following description, an example of an effect in a jackpot game that is started when “Special Figure C” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 will be described, but “Special Figure D” is displayed on the first special figure display device 212. The same can be applied to the effect in the jackpot game that is started after being stopped.

  115 (1) to 116 (7), in the jackpot game, the first special chart display device 212 stops and displays “Special Figure C”, which is a 15R jackpot symbol, on the upper right of the decorative symbol display device 208. In the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 displayed in the corner, the 15R jackpot symbol “C” is stopped and displayed corresponding to the “special symbol C” stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212. Except for this point, it is the same as that described above with reference to FIGS. 111 (1) to 111 (7), and a description thereof will be omitted.

  In this effect example, after the effect that the janken game shown in FIG. 116 (7) is started is performed, as shown in FIG. 116 (8), the decorative game display device 208 executes the janken game. “Hoi” character (character information) is displayed to the effect, and the “Par” janken symbol selected by the player is displayed at a position that approximates the character of the bancho, and the position that approximates the panda character Next, the “Janken” symbol of “Choki” that wins “Par” is displayed. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays the character (character information) of “defeat” indicating that the game is defeated. In the present embodiment, when an effect of defeating Janken is performed, the second variable winning opening 235 is not easily won in the 15th round, so the third game condition (or the first condition) is satisfied. That is, it is suggested that the game shifts to the electric support state (special figure low probability normal figure high probability state) after the big hit game. Therefore, such an effect corresponds to a second effect that suggests that the first state is started after the big hit game (or that the third game condition (first condition) is difficult to be established). It can be said.

After that, as shown in FIG. 116 (9), no notification for prompting the second attacker in the fifteenth round is performed, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that the player is instructed to make a right turn. On the other hand, on the touch panel type display device 209, the character (character information) of “It was disappointing” that hesitates that the second variable winning opening 235 does not easily enter the winning state in the 15th round is displayed.
117 is a diagram showing a continuation of the specific effect example shown in FIG. 116.

  Thereafter, at the 15th round, as shown in FIG. 117 (10), the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) is opened, but the opening time of the second attacker here is short. It is difficult to expect a prize. However, as shown in FIG. 117 (10), an irregular state in which the player wins the second attacker that is open for 0.1 seconds happens to occur.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 117 (11), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability change has been confirmed, together with the long character. On the other hand, the touch panel type display device 209 displays a character (character information) of “congratulations” congratulating that the probability change has been confirmed.

When the fifteenth round is completed, a big hit game end effect as shown in FIG. 117 (12) is performed, and then, as shown in FIG. The effects shown in FIGS. 117 (12) and 117 (13) are the same as the effects shown in FIGS. 107 (13) and 107 (14), and a description thereof will be omitted here.
(Modification 1)

In the above-described production example, since the second attacker's opening time in the 15th round is short, it is not easy to win the second attacker. For example, the second attacker as shown in FIG. Although the display for promoting the winning of the second attacker is not performed, such a display may be performed.
(Modification 2)

Further, in the above-described effect example, when a winning to the second attacker occurs, the display as shown in FIG. 117 (11) is performed. However, such a display may not be performed.
(Modification 3)

Further, in the above-described effect example, when the 15th round is completed, a display to the effect change state is performed as shown in FIG. 117 (12), but such a display is not performed. May be.
(Modification 4)

  In the above-described effect example, after the big hit game is ended, the start of probability change is notified as shown in FIG. 117 (13), but such notification may not be performed.

  In the production example described above, only one of the productions shown in the first to fourth modifications may be executed, or two or more productions may be executed in combination. Moreover, it may replace with the production | presentation shown in the modifications 1-4, and the special production performed only when the irregular state mentioned above arises may be performed.

  According to the embodiment described so far, the third game condition (or the first condition) is more in the case where the first effect is performed than in the case where the second effect is performed. It can be said that it is a condition that is easily established.

  Further, in the embodiment described so far, for example, when the display is stopped (decision display) with a combination of “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”-“decoration 3” decoration symbols, or during a big hit, After the first presentation such as when winning, the third game condition (or the first condition) is likely to be satisfied (the second variable prize opening 235 is likely to win).

However, the third game condition (or the first condition) may be easily established without performing the first effect.
[Embodiment 5]

  Next, a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above.

  118A is a diagram showing a table set selection table in the case of a big hit in the special figure 1, and FIG. 118B is a diagram showing a table set selection table in the case of a big hit in the special figure 2. FIG. These tables are also stored in the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300.

  Even in the fifth embodiment, in the ordinary figure low probability state, the ordinary figure lottery is only hit with a probability of 1/100, so the electric chew is almost not opened, and the probability of winning the second special figure starting port 232 is low. The table shown in FIG. 118 (a) corresponds to a table set selection table that is frequently used in the case of the normal figure low probability (special figure low probability common figure low probability) state. In FIG. 118 (a), for reference, the winning design at the time of the big hit in the special figure 1 and the winning in the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) in the big hit game (hereinafter referred to as "V winning") The control state after the big hit game corresponding to whether or not there is) is shown. In the V-winning column, a circle indicates that there is a V winning, and a cross indicates that there is no V winning. Further, in the column of the control state (probability change, electric support), a circle mark indicates an add and a cross mark indicates no.

  On the other hand, in the ordinary high probability state, the electric Chu is almost open, and the big hit in the special figure 2 is more advantageous to the player than the big hit in the special figure 1, so the player aims at the second special figure starting port 232. The table shown in FIG. 118B corresponds to a table set selection table that is frequently used in the case of the normal figure high probability (special figure high probability normal figure high probability, special figure low probability normal figure high probability) state. For reference, FIG. 118 (b) shows a control state after the end of the big hit game corresponding to the stop pattern at the time of the big hit in the special figure 2 and the possibility of V winning in the big hit game.

  In the present embodiment, from the table shown in FIG. 118 (a) and the table shown in FIG. 118 (b), table set 1 is selected when there is a V prize in the big hit game regardless of the special figure determination result. When there is no V prize in the big hit game, the table set 2 is selected.

  In other words, according to the present embodiment, after the big hit game, the second gaming state (for example, the probability variation state) is started (or the game ball wins the second variable prize opening 235 and the third gaming condition is reached). (For example, "decoration 3"-"decoration 3"-"decoration 3" or "decoration 7"-"decoration 7"-"decoration 7"). When the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied (for example, winning to the second variable winning opening 235) after the “decorative symbol combination display” is performed ( In the first gaming state (for example, the electric support state (irregular short time)) that shifts after the big hit in the second case), the effect corresponding to the first gaming state (the effect using the table set 2: the second Production) is executed.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, the first gaming state (for example, the electric support state) is started after the big hit game (or the third gaming condition (first condition) is not easily established). The third game condition (or the first condition) after the suggested second performance (for example, the derivation display of the combination of the decoration pattern of “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4”) is performed. ) Is established (for example, winning in the second variable winning opening 235) (in the fourth case), in the second gaming state (for example, the probability variation state (irregular probability variation)) that shifts after the big hit, An effect corresponding to the gaming state (effect using table set 1: fourth effect) is executed.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, the second game state (for example, the probability variation state) is started after the big hit game (or the game ball is won in the second variable prize opening 235 and the third game condition is established). (First condition) is easy to be met) If the third game condition (or the first condition) is satisfied after the first performance is performed (the first case) is a big hit In the second game state to be transferred later, an effect corresponding to the second game state (effect using table set 1: first effect) is executed.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, the first gaming state (for example, the electric support state) is started after the big hit game (or the third gaming condition (first condition) is not easily established). In the first gaming state in which the third game condition (or the first condition) is not satisfied after the suggested second effect is performed (the third case), An effect corresponding to one game state (effect using table set 2: third effect) is executed.

  Thus, in this embodiment, since the table set selection table is set as described above, it depends on the type of special figure, the availability of V winnings, and the control state (game state) after the big hit game ends. Thus, the variation time (table for determining the variation time) can be determined.

  The contents of the table set, the contents of each table used in the table set, the variable time corresponding to the timer number and the control state performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) that can be selected from each table. About the effect aspect, what was mentioned in 1st Embodiment-3rd Embodiment can be used suitably.

Further, as described above, there may be an effect that can be selected only by the table 3 or the table 5 used in the table set 1, or an effect that can be selected only by the table 2 or the table 4 used in the table set 2. There may be. In this embodiment, a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state that shifts after a big hit game with an irregular short time (first case) even in a special figure low probability ordinary figure high probability state that transitions after a big hit game with 15R jackpot However, since the table set 2 is selected, in such a case, an effect corresponding to only the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state may be executed. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, for example, even in a special figure high probability normal figure high probability state that shifts after a big hit game in the case of winning a V in a big hit game with 15R special big hit (first case), an irregular probability change ( Since the table set 1 is selected even in the special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability that shifts after the big hit game in the fourth case), in such a case, only the special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability is supported. Production may be performed.
[Embodiment 6]

  Next, a sixth embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above.

  FIG. 119 (a) is a diagram showing a table set selection table when a big hit is made in FIG. This table is also stored in the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300.

Even in the sixth embodiment, in the ordinary figure low probability state, the ordinary figure lottery is only hit with a probability of 1/100, so the electric chew is almost not opened, and the probability of winning the second special figure starting port 232 is low. The table shown in FIG. 119 (a) corresponds to a table set selection table that is frequently used in the case of the normal figure low probability (special figure low probability normal figure low probability) state. In FIG. 119 (a), for reference, it corresponds to whether or not a winning (V winning) in the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) in the big hit game and the stop design at the big hit in the special figure 1 in the special figure 1 The control state after the big hit game is shown. In the V-winning column, a circle indicates that there is a V winning, and a cross indicates that there is no V winning. Further, in the column of the control state (probability change, electric support), a circle mark indicates an add and a cross mark indicates no.

  In the present embodiment, from the table shown in FIG. 119 (a), the special figure determination result is in a state where it is easy to win (V prize) in the second variable winning slot 235 (second attacker) in the big hit game. If it is a big win and there is a V win in the big win game, the table set 1 is selected, the special figure determination result is 15R special big hit, and there is no V win in the big hit game (i In regular short time, table set 4 is selected, and the special figure determination result is a 15R big hit that does not make it easy for the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) to win a prize (V prize) in the big hit game And, if there is a V win in the jackpot game (regular probability change), the table set 3 is selected, the special figure determination result is 15R jackpot, and If there is no V winning in per game, the table set 2 is selected.

  Thus, in this embodiment, since the table set selection table is set as described above, it depends on the type of special figure, the availability of V winnings, and the control state (game state) after the big hit game ends. Thus, the variation time (table for determining the variation time) can be determined. In the present embodiment, a special table set is selected when a situation that is difficult to occur in a normal game occurs, such as the above-mentioned irregular short time and irregular probability change, In the subsequent control state (gaming state), the player can be given a sense of incongruity, a profit, etc.

  In the present embodiment, only the table set selection table in the case of big hit in FIG. 1 is shown, but the table set selection table in FIG. 119 (a) is also shown for the table set selection table in the case of big hit in FIG. A table may be used, or the table set selection table in the first, third, and fifth embodiments may be used. Also, in the case of a big hit in Special Figure 2, all are 15R special big hits, so if there is a V win in the big hit game, table set 1 is selected, and there is no V win in the big hit game ( For irregular time, a table set selection table having a configuration in which the table set 4 is selected may be used.

  FIG. 119 (b) is a diagram for explaining the table set 1, and FIG. 119 (c) is a diagram for explaining the table set 2. The contents of the table set 1 and the table set 2 are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 60A and 60B, respectively, and thus description thereof is omitted here.

  FIG. 119 (d) is a diagram for explaining the table set 3, and FIG. 119 (e) is a diagram for explaining the table set 4.

  The table set 3 is used when shifting to the probability variation state after the big hit game which is the irregular probability variation described above. The table 3 for the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state is used until the 99th symbol variation display after the big hit game ends, but in the table set 3, the symbol variation display of the 100th rotation, that is, the probability variation state In addition, the last symbol variation display in the electric support state is characterized in that the configuration is different from the table set 1 in that the table 6 is used. That is, according to the table set 3, the table 6 is used instead of the table 5 in the state immediately before the fall when the player's advantage is the second advantage. When the 101st symbol variation display is started, the state is shifted to the non-probable change state and the non-electric support state, and the table 1 for the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state is used.

  The table set 4 is used when shifting to the electric support state in the non-probability change state after the end of the big hit game, which is the above-mentioned irregular short time. The 49th figure after the big hit

Until the pattern change display, the table 2 for the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state is used, but in the table set 4, the symbol change display at the 50th rotation, that is, the symbol change display at the end of the electric support state, It is characterized in that the configuration is different from the table set 2 in that the table 7 is used. That is, according to the table set 4, the table 7 is used instead of the table 4 in the state immediately before the fall when the player's advantage is the first advantage. When the 51st symbol variation display is started, the state is shifted to the non-electric support state, and the table 1 for the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state is used.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when a situation that is difficult to occur in a normal game occurs, such as the above-mentioned irregular short time and irregular probability change, the advantageous control state falls to the more unfavorable control state. A special table is selected in the symbol variation display immediately before the game is performed, and as a result, the player can be given a sense of incongruity, a good deal, and the like.

  FIG. 119 (f) is a diagram for explaining tables used in the table set.

  There are seven types of tables 1 to 7 used in the table set of this embodiment. Here, since the tables 1 to 5 are as described above with reference to FIG. 59 (c), description thereof is omitted here. The table 6 is a table used in the state immediately before the fall in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state that shifts after the big hit game which is the irregular probability change described above, and the table 7 is the big hit which is the above irregular short time. It is a table used in the state just before falling in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state that shifts after the game ends.

  In the present embodiment, the effect modes according to the control time performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) and the variation time corresponding to the timer number that can be selected from each table are shown in FIG. 59 (d). Is used.

  The contents of the tables 1 to 5 used in the present embodiment are as described above with reference to FIGS. 60 (c) to (e), FIG. 61 and FIG.

  120A is a diagram showing a table 6 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is a big hit, and FIG. 120B is a table for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display that is lost. FIG. The tables showing these tables 6 show the effects in the special figure high probability common figure high probability state performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) shown in FIG. 59 (d) for reference. Yes.

  As described above, the table 6 is a table for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display in the probability variation state and the last electric support state after the transition to the probability variation state and the electric support state after the end of the big hit game which is an irregular probability variation. It is.

  In the big hit symbol variation display shown in FIG. 120 (a), the super shortened big hit of timer number 1 (1 second) is always selected. In a normal game, the transition to the probability change state is made when there is a V prize at the 15R special jackpot, and in the probability change state that is shifted at this time, the table set 1 is selected. If the symbol variation display at the end of the probable change state and the power support state (100th rotation) is a big hit, the table 5 for determining the fluctuation time of the big hit symbol variation display shown in FIG. 62 (c) is selected. The Therefore, in normal cases, the battle A victory with timer number 7 (35 seconds) is always selected. However, in the probability change state after the big hit game, which is an irregular probability change, a different effect is performed. With this, it is possible to produce an effect without any special problem in control while giving a sense of incongruity.

  On the other hand, in the loss symbol variation display shown in FIG. 120 (b), the battle A defeat of the timer number 6 (30 seconds) is always selected. In a normal game in which the table set 1 is selected, when the symbol variation display in the probability variation state and the electric support state last (100th rotation) is lost, the symbol variation display that results in the loss shown in FIG. The table 5 for determining the variation time is selected. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the battle number 2 of the timer number 5 (12 seconds) is always selected and the reach state is not reached, but the reach state is always reached in the probability change state after the end of the big hit game which is an irregular probability change. As a result, the fluctuation time can be long, and there are cases where more suspensions of the special figure 2 can be generated in the state immediately before the probability variation state and the electric support state are finished.

  FIG. 120 (c) is a diagram showing a table 7 for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display to be a big hit, and FIG. 120 (d) is a table for determining the variation time of the symbol variation display to be lost. FIG. The tables showing these tables 7 show, for reference, effects in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 (display means) shown in FIG. 59 (d). Yes.

  As described above, the table 7 is a table for determining the variation time of the last symbol variation display in the electric support state after the transition to the electric support state with the non-probability changing state after the end of the big hit game, which is an irregular short time. is there.

  In the big hit symbol variation display shown in FIG. 120 (c), the super shortened big hit with timer number 1 (1 second) is always selected. In the normal game, the transition to the electric support state is made when the big hit game is completed without winning the V prize at the 15R big hit that is not the 15R special big hit. Since the table set 2 is selected, when the symbol fluctuation display at the end of the electric support state (50th rotation) is a big hit, the fluctuation time of the big hit symbol fluctuation display shown in FIG. 62 (a) is determined. Table 4 is selected. Therefore, normally, super reach with a battle is always performed, but in the electric support state that transitioned after the big hit game that is irregular short-time, a different effect is performed, so while giving a sense of incongruity in the production, It is possible to produce effects without any special problems in control.

  In the loss symbol variation display shown in FIG. 120 (d), the super short loss of the timer number 2 (2 seconds) is always selected. In a normal game in which the table set 2 is selected, when the symbol variation display at the end of the electric support state (50th rotation) is lost, the variation time of the symbol variation display that results in the loss shown in FIG. The table 4 for determining is selected. For this reason, in the normal case, the battle gasase tilt 2 with the timer number 5 (12 seconds) is always selected, and in the state immediately before the power support state is ended, there are cases where more suspensions of the special figure 2 can be generated. However, in the electric support state shifted after the end of the big hit game, which is an irregular time, the variation time of the symbol variation display at the end of the electric support state is short, so in the state immediately before the end of the electric support state, FIG. Is not likely to occur, and it may be disadvantageous for the player when the game is shifted to the electric support state after the big hit game, which is irregular shortening.

  Next, a hold icon applicable as a hold display displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 in the first to sixth embodiments will be described. FIG. 121 (a) is a diagram showing an example of a hold icon used for special figure 1 hold display. FIG. 121 (b) is a diagram showing an example of a hold icon used for special figure 2 hold display.

  As shown in FIGS. 121 (a) and 121 (b), the hold icon to be displayed is changed in accordance with the control state and the reliability.

  For example, as the hold icon used for the special figure 1 hold display, a hold icon as shown in FIG. 121 (a) is used.

  That is, in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, for example, the white circle hold icon is used as the default display mode, the panda character hold icon is used as the low reliability hold notification display mode, and the reliability As the display mode of the high hold notice, the hold icon of the face of the Bancho is used.

  Further, in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state (electric support state), for example, a white circle hold icon is used as a default display mode, and a child panda character hold icon is used as a low reliability hold notice display mode. Is used, and the hold icon of the longest character is used as the display mode of the hold notification with high reliability. The display mode of the default hold icon in the electric support state is the same display mode as the default hold icon in the special figure low probability normal map low probability state.

  Further, in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state (probability change state), the hold icon is not displayed.

  Also, in the electric support state transitioned after the big hit game, which is an irregular short time, for example, a white square-shaped hold icon is used as the default display mode, and the display of the hold notification of low reliability is used for The hold icon is used, and the hold icon of the old character is used as the display mode of the hold notice with high reliability.

  In addition, in the probability change state after the end of the big hit game, which is an irregular probability change, a white upward triangle-shaped hold icon is used, and a hold icon of an Afro student character is used as a display form of a low-reliability hold notice. As the display mode of the high-reliability hold notice, the hold icon of the character with the longest broken clothes is used.

  Thus, the special figure 1 hold display uses a hold icon of a different character depending on the reliability of the hold notice.

  Further, for example, as a hold icon used for the special figure 2 hold display, a hold icon as shown in FIG. 121 (b) is used.

  That is, in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, for example, a white parallelogram hold icon is used as a default display mode, and a green parallelogram hold icon is used as a low reliability hold notification display mode. In addition, a red parallelogram-shaped hold icon is used as a display mode of the high-reliability hold notice. In the special 2 hold display, the shape of the hold icon used in the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state is made the same, and only the color differs according to the reliability.

  Further, in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state (electric support state), for example, a white circle hold icon is used as a default display mode, and a child panda character hold icon is used as a low reliability hold notice display mode. Is used, and the hold icon of the longest character is used as the display mode of the hold notification with high reliability. The hold icon used in the electric support state in the special 2 hold display is the same as the hold icon used in the electric support state in the special 1 hold display.

  Further, in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state (probability change state), the hold icon is not displayed.

  In addition, in the electric support state transitioned after the end of the big hit game, which is an irregular short time, for example

The white diamond-shaped hold icon is used as the default display mode, the hold icon of the Sabohan character facing right is used as the display mode of the low-reliability hold notification, and the display mode of the high-reliability hold notification is used. The hold icon of the Sabohani character facing left is used. In the electric support state transferred after the end of the big hit game, which is an irregular short time, the display mode of the holding notice is such that the direction of the character is different depending on the reliability.

  In addition, in the probability change state that has been transferred after the end of the jackpot game, which is an irregular probability change, a white downward triangle-shaped hold icon is used, and a hold icon of "Yatsushiro Shogun" is used as a display form of a low-reliability hold notice, The hold icon of the main character is used as the display mode of the hold notice with high reliability.

  As described above, in this embodiment, in the electric support state that has been shifted after the end of the big hit game, which is irregular, and the probability change state, which has been shifted after the end of the big hit game, which is an irregular probability change, ) Can be changed.

  In the present embodiment, the high-reliability hold notice icon may be a jackpot confirmed hold notice icon or a 15R special jackpot confirmed hold notice icon. In this case, it can be said that the 15R special jackpot confirmed hold notice icon is an example of the first effect.

  In the present embodiment, a dedicated hold icon is used in the electric support state that is shifted after the end of the big hit game, which is irregular, and the probability change state, which is shifted after the end of the big hit game, which is an irregular probability change. Is displayed, but such a dedicated hold icon may not be used.

  Further, these hold icons can be used as the above-described variable icons.

  Further, in this embodiment, the common hold icon is used in part for the special 1 hold display and the special 2 hold display, but may be used in common for all, and the special 1 hold display and There is no need to use a common hold icon for the special 2 hold display.

  Moreover, between the special 1 hold display and the special 2 hold display, the law of change of the display mode of the hold icon may be made common or may not be made common.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the third game condition (or the first condition) is established in the big hit game, the probability change state is set after the big hit game is finished. The icon is configured not to appear.

  In the present embodiment, the hold icon is not displayed in the probability change state. However, the control state in which the hold icon is not displayed and the control state in which the hold icon is displayed are arbitrarily set. be able to. For example, it is possible not to display the hold icon in the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, or to display the hold icon in the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state. In the present embodiment, as described above, the hold icon is not displayed according to the control state. However, the hold icon may be displayed regardless of the control state.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the variable icon is displayed, the above-described hold icon is displayed.

By using the control, a variation icon corresponding to the control state can also be displayed. It is also possible to set a control state in which no change icon is displayed.

In the present embodiment, the same hold icon may be used in the power support state and the probability change state for the hold icon according to FIG. 1 in which the variable game is not prioritized, or different hold icons may be used. Good.
[Seventh Embodiment]

  Next, a seventh embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above.

  122 is a diagram illustrating the front of the attacker unit 2340, and FIG. 123 is a diagram of the attacker unit 2340 as viewed from the back.

  The attacker unit 2340 includes a first variable winning opening 234a as an example of a second variable winning means and a second variable winning opening 235a as an example of a first variable winning means, as shown in FIG. Instead of the one variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235, for example, it is attached to the lower right of the game area 124 in the game board 200.

  The attacker unit 2340 has, for example, a flat plate shape, and includes an attachment base 2340a for attaching to the front surface of the game board 200, and a decorative member 2340b attached to the front surface of the attachment base 2340a with a predetermined interval. .

  In the mounting base 2340a, a rectangular opening is formed in the approximate center near the upper end, and a plate-like first door member 2341a is attached so as to cover the opening. The lower end of the first door member 2341a is pivotally supported by the mounting base 2340a, and can be opened and closed forward by driving the solenoid SOL1 mounted on the rear side of the mounting base 2340a. The solenoid SOL1 is included in the various solenoids 332 described above and is driven by the drive circuit 334. In the present embodiment, the first variable prize opening 234a is configured as described above.

  Further, a second variable prize opening 235a described later is formed between the attachment base 2340a and the decorative member 2340b. Hereinafter, the configuration of the second variable winning opening 235a will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 124 (a) and 124 (b). FIG. 124 is a view for explaining the internal structure of the second variable winning opening 235a. FIG. 124 (a) is a diagram showing that the V shutter 2352a as an example of the variable pitching means is in a closed state. FIG. 124B shows that the V shutter 2352a is in an open state. In FIGS. 124 (a) and 124 (b), the decorative member 2340b is shown in a transparent manner in order to easily explain the internal structure of the second variable prize winning opening 235a.

  As shown in FIGS. 124 (a) and 124 (b), the decorative member 2340b has a wall surface having a bottom surface 2340c, an upper surface 2340d, and a side surface 2340e erected rearward from the back surface of the plate surface 2340f. The decoration member 2340b is formed with a first rolling region SP1 and a second rolling region SP2 on which a game ball can roll by a wall surface, and an open portion behind the first rolling region SP1 is closed by the front surface of the mounting base 2340a.

  The upper part of the first rolling region SP1 is open, and a plate-like shutter member 2351a is provided so as to be able to advance and retreat in the depth direction with respect to the mounting base 2340a so as to cover the open part. The shutter member 2351a is configured to be displaceable by driving a solenoid SOL2 (see FIG. 123). The solenoid SOL2 is included in the various solenoids 332 described above.

It is rare and is driven by the drive circuit 334. That is, in this embodiment, when the shutter member 2351a is in a state of being advanced forward (closed state) with respect to the mounting base 2340a, the first rolling region SP1 is closed and the first ball of the game ball is closed. When the entry to the rolling area SP1 is blocked and the vehicle is in the backwardly retracted state (open state), the first rolling area SP1 is opened and the game ball enters the first rolling area SP1. Entry is allowed.

  At a position where the first rolling area SP1 and the second rolling area SP2 are communicated with each other, a winning count switch SW1 for detecting the passing of the game ball is disposed, and the first rolling area SP1 is entered. When the played game ball rolls on the bottom surface 2340c and is guided leftward, it passes through the winning count switch SW1. The winning count switch SW1 is included in the various sensors 320 described above, and is configured such that a detection signal is input to the sensor circuit 322. In the present embodiment, when the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 detects the passing of the game ball to the winning count switch SW1, it detects a winning to the second variable winning opening 235a and pays out a winning ball based on the winning. Process.

  The game ball that has passed the winning count switch SW1 is guided to the second rolling area SP2. In the second rolling region SP2, a V passage 2340g (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a first region) and a general passage 2340h are juxtaposed in the left-right direction, and the received game ball is placed in one of the passages. It is configured to guide and discharge downward. The V passage 2340g is provided with a V passing switch SW2 as an example of a detecting means, and the game ball guided to the V passage 2340g is configured to pass through the V passing switch SW2. Thus, it can be said that the V passage 2340g is an area provided at a position where at least the game ball that has entered the second variable prize opening 235a can enter. The V-pass switch SW2 is included in the various sensors 320 described above, and is configured such that a detection signal is input to the sensor circuit 322. In the present embodiment, when the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 detects the passage of the game ball to the V pass switch SW2, the third game condition (or the first condition) described above is assumed that the game ball has passed through the V passage 2340g. ) Can be determined. A plate-like V shutter 2352a is provided so as to be able to advance and retreat in the depth direction with respect to the mounting base 2340a so as to cover the upper portion of the V passage 2340g. The V shutter 23521a is configured to be displaceable by driving a solenoid SOL3 (see FIG. 123). The solenoid SOL3 is included in the various solenoids 332 described above, and is driven by the drive circuit 334. That is, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 124 (a), when the V shutter 2352a is in the forwardly advanced state (closed state) with respect to the mounting base 2340a, the game ball to the V passage 2340g The game ball that has been prevented from entering and has entered the second rolling region SP2 rolls on the upper surface of the V shutter 2352a and is guided to the general passage 2340h. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 124 (b), when the V shutter 2352a is in a state of being retracted backward (open state) with respect to the mounting base 2340a, the game ball is allowed to enter the V passage 2340g. The game ball that has entered the second rolling region SP2 is guided to the V passage 2340g. Further, a discharge ball detection switch SW3 is disposed in the general passage 2340h, and a game ball guided to the general passage 2340h is configured to pass through the discharge ball detection switch SW. The discharged ball detection switch SW3 is included in the various sensors 320 described above, and is configured such that a detection signal is input to the sensor circuit 322. In the present embodiment, when the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 detects the passage of the game ball to the discharge ball detection switch SW3, it detects that the game ball has passed through the general passage 2340h.

In the present embodiment, by configuring as described above, for example, the second variable of the game ball is determined by the number of passes of the game ball of the winning count switch SW1 and the number of passes of the V pass switch SW2 and the discharge ball detection switch SW3. By monitoring in / out of the winning opening 235a, it may be possible to monitor illegally passing a game ball to the V passage 2340g. Examples of the illegal act include an act using a ball with a thread or a game ball having a size larger than a regulation (so-called decaball).

  Further, in the present embodiment, with the configuration described above, only game balls that have entered the second variable prize opening 235a can enter the V passage 2340g, and game balls that have entered the first variable prize opening 234a are: The V passage 2340g is not allowed to enter.

  Subsequently, the first variable winning port 234a (first attacker) and the second variable winning port 235a (second) from the start to the end of one round of the big hit game of the pachinko machine equipped with the above-described attacker unit 2340 The operation timing of the attacker and the V shutter 2352a will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 125 is a timing chart showing the operation timings of the first variable winning port 234a, the second variable winning port 235a, and the V shutter 2352a from the start to the end of the big hit game.

  First, the operation timing of the first variable winning opening 234a in the round in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) opens and closes will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 125 (a), when the round is started, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON at the timing t0, and the first door member 2341a is opened from the closed state (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the fifth state). Displacement to a state (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a sixth state). Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of t4, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a closing time after the round (first closing time: for example, 1.5 seconds) is set. Thereafter, the round ends when the closing time elapses after the round and the timing of t6 is reached. Since the first variable prize winning opening 234a is not provided with the V shutter, the operation relating to the V shutter is not performed as shown in FIG. 125 (b).

  Next, a round in which the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) opens and closes, and the second variable prize opening 235a is opened for a long time (for example, a maximum of 25 seconds is opened: long is opened) ( For example, the operation timings of the second variable prize opening 235a and the V shutter 2352a in the above-described 15R special big hit 15th round) will be described.

  As shown in FIGS. 125 (c) and 125 (d), when the round starts, the solenoid SOL2 is turned on at the timing t0, and the shutter member 2351a is sometimes closed (hereinafter referred to as a first state). ) To the open state (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the second state), and the solenoid SOL3 is turned on to open the V shutter 2352a from the closed state (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the third state). Displacement to a state (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a fourth state). At this time, a first V opening time (for example, 0.1 second) is set. When the first V opening time elapses and the timing becomes t1, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a first V closing time (for example, 3 seconds) is set. When the first V closing time elapses and the timing becomes t3, the solenoid SOL3 is turned ON again, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF at the timing of t4, and the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a first V opening time (for example, 0.1 second) is set, and a post-round closing time (first closing time) is set. When the first V opening time elapses and the timing becomes t5, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. Thereafter, the round ends when the closing time elapses after the round and the timing of t6 is reached. The above-described opening / closing operation of the V shutter 2352a is, for example,

This is performed based on the first opening pattern data stored in the ROM 406 of the main control unit 300.

  Next, in the round in which the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) is opened and closed, the second variable prize opening 235a is opened for a short time (for example, maximum 0.1 second opening: short opening). The operation timings of the second variable winning opening 235a and the V shutter 2352a in a round (for example, the 15th round in the 15R big hit described above) will be described.

  As shown in FIGS. 125 (e) and 125 (f), when the round starts, the solenoid SOL2 is turned on at the timing t0, the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the closed state to the opened state, and the solenoid SOL3 is turned on. Thus, the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the first V opening time described above is set. When the first V opening time elapses and the timing becomes t1, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state, but the opening time of the second variable winning opening 235a is also set. Since it is 0.1 second, the solenoid SOL2 is turned off at the same time t1, and the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a post-round closing time (first closing time) is set. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round has passed and the timing of t2 is reached, the round ends. Also in this case, the opening / closing operation of the V shutter 2352a is performed based on the first opening pattern data described above. However, as indicated by a chain line in the timing chart shown in FIG. 125 (f), the round ends at the timing t2 before the V shutter 2352a is opened again, so that the game ball to the V passage 2340g. The chance to pass is only a very short period of the first V opening time immediately after the start of the round. In this way, even if the game ball wins the second variable winning opening 235a in the round in which the second variable winning opening 235a is short-opened, the gaming ball to the V passage 2340g as described above. Is difficult to pass, and the transition to an unintended control state is suppressed. On the other hand, even when the second variable prize opening 235a is short-opened, the V shutter 2352a is opened, so that an opportunity for the game ball to pass through the V passage 2340g is secured. In addition, the same opening pattern data is used as data for determining the opening / closing pattern of the V shutter 2352a regardless of whether the second variable winning opening 235a is a round that opens long or short round. For example, the control burden such as switching the data to be used is reduced depending on whether or not it is a special big hit.

  The operation timing described above is applied to a pachinko machine provided with two variable winning openings. For example, only one variable winning opening having a V passage is provided like the second variable winning opening 235a. In the pachinko machine provided, for example, with regard to the round for determining whether or not the third game condition (first condition) is satisfied by allowing passage through the V passage, FIG. 125 (c) and (d ) Or the operations shown in FIGS. 125 (e) and (f), and for the other rounds, the operations shown in FIGS. 125 (a) and (b) are performed. Can be realized.

  In the pachinko machines of the first embodiment to the seventh embodiment described above, the relationship between the gaming state and the table set (data used when determining the variation time) becomes irregular due to partial diversion of the variation time. Even so, both the effect of reducing the sense of incongruity and the effect of showing an interesting behavior even when becoming irregular, which is the opposite of the effect, are exhibited.

  That is, there may be a case where it is possible to prevent a sense of discomfort due to the variation time. More specifically, by using a part of the variation time, even if the relationship between the gaming state and the table set becomes irregular, it may be possible to produce an effect without a sense of incongruity. On the other hand, it may be possible to improve the interest of the game by using the fact that the relationship between the game state and the table set is irregular for the production.

  Further, since the big hit symbol is related to the gaming state, the big hit symbol can be associated with the table set. In some cases, the game can be sharpened by selecting an irregular table set. Further, during the big hit gaming state, the game ball is being fired in order for the attacker to win the game ball. Therefore, the third condition (or the first condition) may be easily established.

  In the above embodiment, a dedicated table (for example, the table 5 or the table 4) is used before the gaming state is switched. However, the timing for using the dedicated table can be arbitrarily set, for example, You may make it use a table for exclusive use for the 1st rotation at the time of switching of a gaming state by a table set.

  Further, although the description has been given taking the effect by the decorative symbol display device 208 (effect display means) as an example, the present invention may be applied to an effect by a movable body, a lamp, or sound.

  Moreover, you may make it perform the production | presentation which can alert | report that it is a special state, eliminating the sense of incongruity about a change time using a dedicated sub production | presentation mode.

  Further, the operation probability of the movable body may be refrained from being in the irregular state, or conversely, the irregularity state may be notified by increasing the appearance rate. In other words, it may be set with priority given to either the effect of eliminating the uncomfortable feeling or intentionally notifying.

  Also, if the jackpot symbol without power support is stopped, if the gaming state before the big hit game is a special low-probability normal figure low-probability state, even after the big hit game ends ( (Non-electric support state) is maintained, and if the game state before the big hit game is a special figure high probability normal figure low probability state (electric support state), it will shift to the normal figure high probability state. May be. In addition, the jackpot symbol that does not have the electric support may be a symbol that is not selected in the special figure 2 that is mainly drawn in a high probability state. In this case, the game state after the big hit game is determined according to the big hit symbol and the game state at the time of the big hit (which may vary as a result), and the variable time group (table set) after the big hit is decided. May be.

  Furthermore, you may comprise so that irregularity may not arise reliably. For example, in the second embodiment, the third condition is satisfied (the winning of special figure C or D in FIG. 1) and the first condition is also satisfied (the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker)). The special state (irregular state) in which the second variable prize opening 235 (predetermined winning area) cannot win under the first condition (for example, does not open or reaches 15 rounds) Or not).

  In any of the embodiments, the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) is opened in the 15th round, but the second attacker is abolished and the first variable prize opening 234 (first attacker) is removed. ) Only. In this case, right-handing is not necessary, and the third condition is established by winning the first variable winning opening 234 in the 15th round. On the contrary, the first attacker may be abolished and only the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) may be used. In this case, it is always necessary to be right-handed during the big hit game, and the third condition is established by winning the second variable winning opening 235 in the 15th round.

In the above embodiment, the first variable prize opening 234 (first attacker) is opened in the 1st to 14th rounds, and the second variable prize opening 235 (second attacker) is opened in the 15th round. Although it is configured as described above, it is possible to appropriately set which variable winning opening is opened in which round. For example, a round other than the last round may be a round that opens the second variable winning opening 235. Good. Moreover, it may be configured to determine which variable winning opening is to be opened in which round according to the type of the big hit symbol.

  In the above embodiment, the opening time of the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) is a sufficient time (for example, 25 seconds) that can be easily won depending on the type of jackpot symbol, and it is difficult to win. The decision was made to determine whether the time is extremely short (for example, 0.1 seconds), but the opening time for each round of the first variable winning opening 234 (first attacker) is the type of jackpot symbol Thus, it may be determined whether the time is sufficient for easy winning or the extremely short time for which winning is difficult. For example, the opening time of the first variable winning opening 234 is made extremely short (for example, 0.1 second) in all rounds in which the first variable winning opening 234 (first attacker) is opened due to the jackpot symbol. The opening time of the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) is set to a time sufficient for easy winning (for example, 25 seconds), and the number of balls in the big hit game is suppressed to shift to a probable change state. It is possible to make specifications, etc., and game design can be performed freely.

  Further, in the above embodiment, an error notification may be made when a winning is made at the second variable winning opening 235 (second attacker) that has almost no possibility of winning in the 15R big hit that is not the 15R special big hit. As a result, for example, when an illegal winning is made, it becomes possible to easily notify a store clerk or the like of the game hall.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the first special figure starting port 230 and the second special figure starting port 232 have different entrance routes, so that it is possible to hold only up to four in a normal game. For example, it is configured so that the entrance is shared and the subsequent route is alternately distributed between the first special figure starting port 230 and the second special figure starting port 232. In the normal game state, it is possible to hold a total of eight variable games for the first special figure and the second special figure, and then execute the above-mentioned winning order fluctuation, and in normal time The present invention can also be applied to an eight-holding winning order variation machine (so-called eight chance machine).

  Moreover, although the thing of the structure which performs a 1st effect and a 2nd effect was shown in the said embodiment, it is good also as a structure which does not perform a 2nd effect but performs only a 1st effect.

  In the above-described embodiment, for example, the number of consecutive big hits (number of consecutive games) that do not go through the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 or the like. Also good. Moreover, it is also possible to change the display mode of the number of consecutive resorts displayed when a big hit is made in the gaming state (probability changing state or electric support state) shifted from the above-mentioned irregular short time or irregular probability change to a special display mode. . Further, the number of consecutive resorts may not be displayed in such a special display mode.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, you may perform the tutorial production | presentation which is a display explaining the content of production | production, and this tutorial production | presentation can also be functioned as a preliminary announcement. In this case, the tutorial effect can be an example of the first effect and the second effect. For example, when a content such as “V Attacker is easy to open after a big hit at 777” or a content such as “Reach 7 is super hot” is displayed, this is the case when the 15R special big hit This display can be adopted as the first effect. Further, by combining these displays and other effects, it is possible to function as the first effect and the second effect. For example, if the first notice and the second notice are each executed independently, the jackpot is not confirmed, but if both the first notice and the second notice are executed, the 15R special jackpot is confirmed. In such a case, it can be said that these first notice and second notice correspond to an example of the first effect. In addition, for example, the third notice and the fourth notice will not be a big hit if they are executed independently, but if both the third notice and the fourth notice are executed, the 15R special big hit Not 15R big hit

In this case, it can be said that the third notice and the fourth notice correspond to an example of the second effect. Of course, it is also possible to combine three or more notices into the first effect or the second effect.
Next, the concept of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 126 is a diagram for explaining the concept of the present invention.

  Specifically, in FIG. 126 (a), for example, as described in the previous embodiments, the decorative symbols “decoration 4” — “decoration 4” — “decoration 4” are displayed on the ornament symbol display device 208. After the first effect A is executed, which indicates that it is difficult to establish the third game condition during the big hit game, such as stop display (determined display) in combination, for example, the second effect shown in FIG. The big hit game ends without the game ball passing through the V passing switch SW2 provided in the probability variation area in the variable winning opening 235a (satisfying the first game condition) (meeting the first requirement) ( This shows the situation when the first condition is satisfied by satisfying the third requirement. In the following description, the same applies to the embodiment in which the third game condition is established when there is a prize at the second variable prize opening 235 shown in FIG. Needless to say. In the present embodiment, the V pass switch SW2 may be referred to as a probability change region switch.

  In such a case, the effect of shifting to the first game state (electric support state: special figure low probability normal figure high probability state) after the big hit game is executed as the end effect of the big hit game (FIG. 126 (a ), After the first effect B is executed), the big hit game is finished and the state shifts to the first game state. Here, an effect such as represented by the first effect B that at least suggests that the game will shift to the first game state after the big hit game may be referred to as the first effect. The same applies to the following description.

  In other words, with respect to FIG. 126 (a), after an effect related to the probability variation area non-passing open pattern is executed, if there is no passage of the game ball to the probability variation area, the effect of shifting to the non-probability gaming state. It can be said that after (first production) is performed, the concept of shifting to an uncertain gaming state is shown. In the present embodiment, the probability variation region may be referred to as a high probability variation determination region, and may be referred to as a probability variation function operation region.

  In FIG. 126 (b), for example, as described in the previous embodiments, the decoration symbol display device 208 is stopped with a combination of the decoration symbols “decoration 7” — “decoration 7” — “decoration 7”. After the second effect A is executed, which indicates that the third game condition is likely to be satisfied during the big hit game, such as displaying (determined display), the game ball passes through the V pass switch SW2 (third game) This shows the situation when the big hit game is completed after the condition is established. Note that the second effect A may be an effect in a mode of explicitly notifying that the third game condition is easily established during the big hit game.

  In such a case, the effect of shifting to the second game state (probability change state: special figure high probability normal figure high probability state) after the big hit game is executed as the end effect of the big hit game (FIG. 126 (b)). In (2), after the second effect B is executed), the big hit game is finished and the state shifts to the second game state. Here, an effect that at least suggests that the game is shifted to the second gaming state after the big hit game, as represented by the second effect B, may be referred to as a second effect. The same applies to the following description. Note that the second effect may be an effect representing transition to the second game state after the big hit game.

  In other words, with respect to FIG. 126 (b), when an effect related to the probability variation area passing opening pattern is executed, and a game ball passes to the probability variation area, the game state is shifted to the probability variation.

It can be said that the concept of transitioning to a probable gaming state after the production (second production) is performed is shown.

  In FIG. 126 (c), for example, as described in the previous embodiments, the decoration symbol display device 208 is stopped by a combination of the decoration symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4”. After the first effect A is executed, which at least suggests that it is difficult to establish the third game condition during the big hit game, such as displaying (determined display), the game ball passes through the V-pass switch SW2 (third The game condition is established) (the second requirement is satisfied) and the second condition is established by the end of the big hit game. The first effect A may be an effect indicating that it is difficult to satisfy the third game condition during the big hit game.

  Even in such a case, an effect (first effect) for shifting to the first game state after the big hit game is executed as the end effect of the big hit game (in FIG. 126 (c), the first effect B is Executed).

  In other words, with respect to FIG. 126 (c), after the performance related to the probability variation area non-passing release pattern is executed, even when the game ball has passed to the probability variation area, the game state transitions to the non-probability gaming state. It can be said that the concept that the effect of the effect is performed and then the game state is shifted to a certain game state is shown.

  If the concept shown in FIG. 126 (c) is realized, for example, in a big hit game in which the third game condition is difficult to be established, so-called care that allows the game ball to pass by hand with respect to the V-pass switch SW2. If a fraudulent act such as a goth act using a ball with a thread or a game ball larger than a prescribed size (deca ball) is performed, the third game condition is established for a player who has cheated Sometimes it can make you think it has failed. Alternatively, it may be possible for a player who has performed fraud to make a player think that fraud has been detected. As a result, the deterrence of fraudulent acts works, and in some cases, it may be possible to prevent the disadvantages of the game shop.

Hereinafter, some embodiments applicable to the concept of the invention described above with reference to FIG. 126 will be described. It should be noted that the embodiments described below are merely examples included in the concept of the present invention, and it goes without saying that the scope of the invention is not limited thereto.
[Embodiment 8]

  An eighth embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above. The pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment is described as an example provided with the attacker unit 2340 shown in FIG. 124. Of course, the pachinko machine 100 provided with the game board 200 as shown in FIG. Embodiments can also be applied.

  FIG. 127 (a-1) shows an example of the stop symbol aspect (first symbol aspect) of the special figure 1 in the pachinko machine of the eighth embodiment. FIG. 127 (a-2) The example of the stop symbol aspect (1st symbol aspect) of the special figure 2 in the pachinko machine of 8 embodiment is shown.

  In FIG. 127 (a-1) and FIG. 127 (a-2), six types of special drawings from “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure F” are shown as the stop symbol forms in the symbol variation display.

  Also in the eighth embodiment, the stop symbol aspect of the special figure 1 and the stop symbol aspect of the special figure 2 are common. Also, in the eighth embodiment, the big hits are big hits with 16 rounds of electric support, but in Special Figure 2, the big hit symbols are all big hits (special big hits) that are scheduled to acquire a probable change. On the other hand, in Special Figure 1, only "Special Figure A" and "Special Figure C" are jackpots (special jackpots) scheduled to change, and "Special Figure B" and "Special Figure D" are scheduled to acquire probability changes. There is no jackpot. Thus, the second

"Special Figure A" and "Special Figure C" in Special Figure 1 and Special Figure 2 in "Special Figure A" to "Special Figure" which become special special jackpots where the second jackpot gaming state is easily shifted to the game state of FIG. “D” may be referred to as a second symbol, and the probability change is not scheduled (that is, it is difficult to shift to the second gaming state). "Special figure B" and "Special figure D" may be referred to as the first symbol.

  FIG. 127 (b-1) shows an example of the operation of the attacker during the jackpot game of FIG. 1 and the game state to be transferred after the jackpot game. FIG. 127 (b-2) An example of the operation of the attacker during the jackpot game of 2 and the game state to be transferred after the jackpot game are shown.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure A is displayed in the special figure 1 and transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the 15th round, and in the 16th round, The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds. That is, the special figure A in the special figure 1 is a pattern indicating that a large number of game balls are 16 round big hits that can enter the variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 16 rounds.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure B is displayed in the special figure 1 and is transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the 15th round, and in the 16th round, The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for only 0.1 second. In other words, Special Figure B in Special Figure 1 shows that many game balls can enter the variable prize opening in any round from 1 to 15 rounds, but in the 16th round, it is possible to enter the variable prize opening. It is a pattern which shows that it is a substantial 15 round jackpot with almost no possibility of a sphere.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure C is displayed in the special figure 1 and is transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the fourth round, but the fifth round is Until the 15th round, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened only for 0.1 second. In the 16th round, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds. That is, the special figure C in the special figure 1 is that a lot of game balls can enter the variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 4 rounds and 16 rounds, but variable from 5 rounds to 15 rounds. It is a pattern which shows that it is a real 5 round big hit that there is almost no possibility of entering a winning opening.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure D is displayed in the special figure 1 and transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (the first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the fourth round, but the fifth round is started. Until the 15th round, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened only for 0.1 second. Further, in the 16th round, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened only for 0.1 second. That is, the special figure D in the special figure 1 is that from 1 round to 4 rounds, many game balls can enter the variable prize opening in any round, but from 5 rounds to 16 rounds to the variable prize opening. It is a pattern which shows that it is a real 4 round jackpot with almost no possibility of entering.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure A to D is displayed in the special figure 2 and transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is released for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the 15th round, and the 16th round Then, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds. That is, special figures A to D in special figure 2 are symbols indicating that 16 game rounds are a big hit that allows a lot of game balls to enter the variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 16 rounds.

  In the present embodiment, in the big hit game with any of the above-mentioned symbols, the game ball entered while the second variable winning opening 235a is opened becomes 16 rounds in the probability variation area in the second variable winning opening 235a. When the V passing switch SW2 provided is passed, the probability variation operation area is turned ON, and after the big hit game is finished, while the symbol variation display is performed 150 times, the special figure high probability normal figure high probability which is an example of the second game state State is maintained. On the other hand, if the game ball does not pass through the V passing switch SW2 in the big hit game, the probability variation operation region is not turned ON (the probability variation operation region remains OFF), and after the big hit game ends, 100 symbols. While the variable display is performed, the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state which is an example of the first gaming state is maintained.

  In the eighth embodiment, the third game condition is satisfied when the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW2 of the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) in the 16th round. Therefore, the big hit by the special figures B and D of the special figure 1 is not a 0% possibility of the probability variation acquisition, but the possibility is very low and it can be said that the jackpot is not scheduled to acquire the probability variation. On the other hand, the big hit by the special figures A and C of the special figure 1 has a sufficient opening time of the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker), and the possibility of passing the game ball to the V passage switch SW2 It is high, and it can be said that it is a big hit scheduled to get a certain change.

  Further, the operation of the attacker in the jackpot game to which the special illustrations A to D are displayed in the special illustration 2 is the same as the operation of the attacker in the special illustration A in the special illustration 1. Accordingly, any of the big hits by the special winning symbols (Special Drawings A to D) of the special figure 2 has a sufficient opening time for the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker), and the game to the V pass switch SW2 The possibility of passing the sphere is high, and it can be said that it is a big hit scheduled to acquire certainty. It should be noted that the operation of the attacker in the big hit according to the special figures A to D in the special figure 2 may be different from the operation mode of the attacker in the big hit according to the special figure A in the special figure 1.

  Thus, the jackpot gaming state in which the third gaming condition is difficult to be satisfied may be referred to as the first jackpot gaming state, and the third gaming condition is likely to be satisfied, and the second game is more than the first jackpot gaming state. The jackpot gaming state where the state is likely to start may be referred to as a second jackpot gaming state.

  FIG. 128 (a) is a diagram schematically showing the external configuration of the first variable winning opening 234a and the second variable winning opening 235a, and FIG. 128 (b) shows the first variable winning opening 234a and the second variable winning opening 234a. It is the figure which represented roughly the internal structure of the 2nd variable prize winning opening 235a. FIG. 128C schematically shows that the V shutter 2352a is in an open state, and FIG. 128D schematically shows that the V shutter 2352a is in a closed state. FIG. FIG. 128 (e) is a diagram schematically showing the external appearance of another embodiment of the first variable prize winning opening and the second variable prize winning opening.

  As shown in FIGS. 128 (a) and 128 (b), a winning count switch SW4 for detecting a game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a is provided inside the first variable winning opening 234a. It has been. The game ball that has passed the winning count switch SW4 is guided to the discharge passage and discharged out of the pachinko machine 100. The winning count switch SW4 is included in the various sensors 320 described above, and is configured such that a detection signal is input to the sensor circuit 322. In the present embodiment, when the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 detects the passing of a game ball to the winning count switch SW4, it detects a winning to the first variable winning opening 234a and pays out a winning ball based on the winning. Process. Note that the internal configuration of the second variable prize opening 235a is the same as that described in the seventh embodiment, and therefore the same reference numerals are used and description thereof is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 128 (c), the second variable winning opening 235a has the V shutter 2352a opened.

When in the state, the game ball is allowed to enter the V passage 2340g, and the game ball that has passed the winning count switch SW1 and entered the second rolling area SP2 has passed the V pass switch SW2. Guided to V-path 2340g. Further, as shown in FIG. 128 (d), the second variable prize opening 235a is prevented from entering the game ball into the V passage 2340g when the V shutter 2352a is closed, and a prize count switch The game ball that has passed through SW1 and entered the second rolling region SP2 rolls on the upper surface of the V shutter 2352a, passes through the discharge ball detection switch SW3, and is guided to the general passage 2340h.

  In the present embodiment, the first variable winning opening and the second variable winning opening are configured as described above. However, as shown in FIG. 128 (e), the first variable winning opening and the second variable winning opening. As an example, the first variable winning opening 234b and the second variable winning opening 235b may be applied.

  A first passage detection switch SW5 and a second passage detection switch SW6 for detecting a game ball that has entered the first variable prize opening 234b are provided inside the first variable prize opening 234b. The game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234b passes through one of the first passage detection switch SW5 and the second passage detection switch SW6 and is discharged out of the pachinko machine 100. Yes.

  Inside the second variable winning opening 235b, there are provided a third passing detection switch SW7 and a fourth passing detecting switch SW8 for detecting a game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235b. The game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235b passes through one of the third passage detection switch SW7 and the fourth passage detection switch SW8 and is discharged out of the pachinko machine 100. Yes.

  The first passage detection switch SW5 to the fourth passage detection switch SW8 can function as follows.

  That is, for example, (1) a game that causes the first passage detection switch SW5 to the fourth passage detection switch SW8 to function as a winning count switch and that has passed through the first passage detection switch SW5 and the third passage detection switch SW7. For example, FIG. 128 (c) and FIG. 128 (d) show the game balls that pass through the second passage detection switch SW6 and the fourth passage detection switch SW8 while guiding the ball to the general passage. It is good also as a structure guided to any one of V passage and a general passage by such an internal structure. Note that at least one of the second passage detection switch SW6 and the fourth passage detection switch SW8 is configured to be guided to the general passage, and the other is as shown in FIGS. 128 (c) and 128 (d). It is good also as a structure guided to any one of V channel | path and a general channel | path by this internal structure.

  (2) The first passage detection switch SW5 and the third passage detection switch SW7 function as a winning count switch, and the second passage detection switch SW6 and the fourth passage detection switch SW8 function as a V passage switch. A configuration may be adopted. In this case, a V shutter as described above is provided that can be changed between a state that prevents passage to the second passage detection switch SW6 and the fourth passage detection switch SW8 that function as a V passage switch and a state that allows passage. May be. In addition, for example, a state in which one or a plurality of game balls that have entered the first variable winning opening 234b or the second variable winning opening 235b are retained upstream of the passage detection switch that functions as a V passing switch. You may make it provide the retention member which can change to the state which cancels | releases the retention of a sphere. For example, the stay member may be configured to make it easy to pass through the V-pass switch or make it difficult to pass through by appropriately setting the timing of releasing the stay of the game ball. Moreover, you may comprise so that a game ball may be retained in order to accelerate | stimulate the passage to V passing switch. In order to facilitate the passage to the fourth passage detection switch SW8 functioning as a V passage switch, the second variable winning opening 23 is provided.

You may make it provide the retention member for retaining one or more game balls which entered into 5b. One of the second passage detection switch SW6 and the fourth passage detection switch SW8 may function as a winning count switch instead of the V passage switch. Further, any one of the first passage detection switch SW5 and the third passage detection switch SW7 may function as a V passage switch instead of a winning count switch.

  (3) The first passage detection switch SW5 to the fourth passage detection switch SW8 may all function as a winning count switch and may not have a configuration such as a V path. In such a configuration, for example, as described above, the present invention is applied to the pachinko machine 100 in which the third game condition is established by winning a game ball in the second variable winning opening 235c (second attacker). be able to. Note that all of the first passage detection switch SW5 to the fourth passage detection switch SW8 may function as a V passage switch.

  Next, FIG. 129 is referred to for each operation timing of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker), the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker), and the V shutter 2352a in the present embodiment. While explaining.

  FIG. 129 (a) is a timing chart showing an example of the operation timing in the big hit game when the special figure B is displayed in the special figure 1 and the big hit (15R big hit) is made, and FIG. FIG. 129 is a timing chart showing an example of the operation timing in the jackpot game when the special figure A is displayed in FIG. 1 and the big hit (16R special big hit) is obtained. FIG. 129 (c) is a special chart B in FIG. It is a timing chart which shows an example of operation timing in a big hit game when it is displayed and it becomes a big hit (15R big hit). Here, A, B and C in the figure respectively indicate the types of gaming states, A is a special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, B is a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, C is a special figure high probability normal figure high probability state.

  First, the operation timing in the big hit game when special figure B is displayed in special figure 1 and the big hit (15R big hit) will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 129 (a), when the big hit game starts at the timing of t1, the big hit start effect is executed. Thereafter, the first round is started at the timing t2, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is displaced from the closed state to the open state. Here, a part or all of the period from t1 which is the start timing of the big hit game to t2 which is the timing when the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened in the first round. Is sometimes called a big hit start state. Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state, and the post-round closing time (first closing time: for example, 1.5 Second) is set. Thereafter, when the closing time elapses after the round, the first round is finished, and then the second round is started. Thereafter, the same operation is repeated until the 15th round is completed. Note that the operation relating to the V shutter 2352a is not performed from the first round to the fifteenth round. Here, the first round to the fifteenth round in which the first variable winning opening 234a is opened may be referred to as the second round.

  When the 15th round is completed and the 16th round is started at the timing t3, the solenoid SOL2 is turned on and the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the closed state to the opened state, and the solenoid SOL3 is turned on and the V shutter 2352a is turned on. Displace from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the first variable opening time 235a (second attacker) as the opening time

Open time (for example, 0.1 second) and a first V open time (for example, 0.1 second) as the open state of the V shutter 2352a are set. In the following description, this first opening time may be referred to as a first period. In addition, in this way, the 16th round in which the second variable prize opening 235a is opened may be referred to as the first round. Further, although not shown, a V passing effective period is set as a period in which the passing of the game ball to the V passing switch SW2 is treated as being effective (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a first area effective state). Is done. Here, the first region effective state may be referred to as a high probability variation determination region effective state. The V passing effective period is, for example, a time slightly longer than the first opening time (for example, a time longer by 0.1 second than the first opening time). Such a V passage effective period may be referred to as a first detection period. Thus, in this embodiment, it can be said that the first detection period overlaps at least partly with the first period. The V passing effective period is not limited to that described above, and for example, a period during which the special electric accessory (the first variable winning opening 234a and the second variable winning opening 235a) is open may be set as the V passing effective period. . Also, for example, during the opening of the special electric accessory and the closing period (or the effective period for processing the winning balls of the first variable winning opening 234a and the second variable winning opening 235a in the closing period) It is good also as a V passage effective period. Further, the period during which the big hit game is executed may be set as the V passing effective period. When the first opening time and the first V opening time elapse and the timing of t4 is reached, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF, the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state, and the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF. Thus, the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a post-round closing time (first closing time) indicated by a period D in the figure is set. At this time, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 determines whether or not a game ball has passed to the V pass switch SW2 during the V pass effective period (that is, whether or not the second requirement is satisfied). Note that it may be determined whether or not a game ball has passed to the V pass switch SW2 in the V pass effective period at a timing t5 described later. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round has passed and the timing of t5 comes, the 16th round ends. The post-round closing time set in the 16th round may be the same time as the post-round closing time of other rounds, or may be a different time. As described above, in the big hit game in which the operation shown in FIG. 129 (a) is performed, the opening time of the second variable winning opening 235a is extremely short and the opening time of the V shutter 2351a is also extremely short. Therefore, even if a game ball enters the second variable winning opening 235a, in most cases, the V shutter 2351a is closed before reaching the V passage 2340g to prevent entry of the game ball. Therefore, the transition to an unintended control state can be suppressed. On the other hand, even when the second variable prize opening 235a is short-opened, the V shutter 2352a is opened, so that an opportunity for the game ball to pass through the V passage 2340g is secured. In this embodiment, a V passing effective period is set corresponding to the opening time of the V shutter 2352a, and at least a timing other than the V passing effective period is entered into the V passage 2340g (that is, the V passing switch). If there is a detection of the passing of a game ball to SW2, an error may be determined. Here, the V passage effective period may be set so as to overlap at least partly with the opening time of the shutter member 2351a, or may be set so as not to overlap.

  Then, when the closing time after the round elapses and the timing becomes t5, the jackpot end effect time indicated by the period E in the figure is set. In the jackpot end effect time, for example, the first effect B described above with reference to FIG. 126 is executed as the jackpot end effect.

  Thereafter, the big hit game ends at the timing of t6, and the game state shifts. In the present embodiment, the third requirement is satisfied by the end of the jackpot game. In the example shown in FIG. 129 (a), in the big hit game, since there was no detection of the passing of the game ball to the V pass switch SW2, at the timing of t6, the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state (the first figure) Transition to one gaming state).

  Here, part or all of the period D and the period E in the figure may be called a big hit end state.

  Next, the operation timing in the big hit game when the special figure A is displayed in the special figure 1 and a big hit (16R special big hit) will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 129 (b), when the big hit game starts at the timing of t1, the big hit start effect is executed. Thereafter, the first round is started at the timing t2, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is displaced from the closed state to the open state. Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state, and the post-round closing time (first closing time: for example, 1.5 Second) is set. Thereafter, when the closing time elapses after the round, the first round is finished, and then the second round is started. Thereafter, the same operation is repeated until the 15th round is completed. Note that the operation relating to the V shutter 2352a is not performed from the first round to the fifteenth round.

  When the 15th round is completed and the 16th round is started at the timing t3, the solenoid SOL2 is turned on and the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the closed state to the opened state, and the solenoid SOL3 is turned on and the V shutter 2352a is turned on. Displace from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the first V opening time (for example, 0.1 second) is set together with the second opening time (for example, 29.0 seconds; long time opening (long opening)). When the first V opening time elapses and the timing becomes t4a, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a first V closing time (for example, 3 seconds) is set. On the other hand, since the second variable winning opening 235a is set to the second opening time, the shutter member 2351a remains in the open state even after the V shutter 2352a is closed. In the following description, this second opening time may be referred to as a second period. When the first V closing time elapses, the solenoid SOL3 is turned ON again, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. Thereafter, for example, when the game ball that has entered the second variable prize opening 235a passes the V-pass switch SW2 at the timing of S2, a detection signal is output from the V-pass switch SW2. That is, the third game condition is established. Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF at the timing of t4b, and the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a first V opening time (for example, 0.1 second) is set, and a post-round closing time (first closing time) indicated by a period D in the figure is set. In the jackpot game shown in FIG. 129 (b), the V passage effective period (second detection period) is set corresponding to the opening time of the V shutter 2352a. The second detection period is longer than the first detection period. When the first V opening time elapses and the timing becomes t4c, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 determines whether or not a game ball has passed to the V pass switch SW2 during the V pass effective period (that is, whether or not the second requirement is satisfied). In addition, it may be determined whether or not a game ball has passed to the V pass switch SW2 in the V pass effective period at a timing t5a described later. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round has passed and the timing of t5a is reached, the 16th round ends. As described above, in the present embodiment, the period in which the second variable winning opening 235a set to be opened for a long time (long opening) is in an open state may be referred to as a second period. It can be said that this second period is at least longer than the first period described above.

  When the closing time after the round has passed and the timing is t5a, this is indicated by a period E in the figure.

The big hit end production time is set. In the jackpot end effect time, for example, the second effect B described above with reference to FIG. 126 is executed as the jackpot end effect.

  Thereafter, the big hit game ends at the timing of t6a, and the game state shifts. In the present embodiment, the third requirement is satisfied by the end of the jackpot game. In the example shown in FIG. 129 (b), since the passing of the game ball to the V passing switch SW2 was detected in the big hit game, at the timing of t6a, the special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state (first (Second gaming state). On the other hand, in the big hit game, when the passing of the game ball to the V pass switch SW2 is not detected, that is, the game is not detected that the game ball has entered the V passage 2340g at least in the second detection period. If the condition is satisfied, a transition from the big hit gaming state to the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state (first gaming state) is made.

  Next, the operation timing in the big hit game when the special figure B is displayed in the special figure 1 and the big hit (15R big hit) will be described with reference to FIG. 129 (c). FIG. 129 (c) shows an example of the operation timing when the passing of the game ball to the V pass switch SW2 is detected in the big hit game, unlike FIG. 129 (a). Hereinafter, description of the same operation as that in FIG. 129 (a) will be omitted, and different operation will be described.

  In the example shown in FIG. 129 (c), the 15th round ends and the 16th round starts at the timing t3, and the shutter member 2351a and the V shutter 2352a are displaced from the closed state to the open state as described above. Thereafter, the passage of the game ball to the V pass switch SW2 is detected at the timing of S1 until the shutter member 2351a and the V shutter 2352a are changed from the open state to the closed state. That is, the third game condition is established. In other words, the jackpot game shown in FIG. 129 (c) is a jackpot game that is an irregular probability change. As described above, the V passage effective period (first detection period) is set while the V shutter 2352a is displaced to the open state at least. During this period, the detection of the game ball to the V passage switch SW2 is performed. If there is, the second requirement will be satisfied.

  Thereafter, the jackpot end effect time indicated by the period E in the figure is set at the timing t5, and the jackpot end effect is executed in the period E, but the game state is shifted to the second game state after the jackpot game ends. First, the first effect B, which is an effect indicating the transition to the first gaming state, is executed as the jackpot end effect. In the present embodiment, for example, the first effect B is executed as the jackpot end effect corresponding to “Special Figure B” which is a 15R jackpot symbol. That is, the first effect B is not an effect that is executed on condition that the second requirement is satisfied. In other words, the execution condition of the first effect B does not include that the second requirement is satisfied. Alternatively, the first effect B executed during the big hit big hit game with the 15R big hit symbol (for example, “Special Figure B”) is based on information on whether or not the game ball has passed to the V pass switch SW2 (directly). (E.g., indirectly or indirectly), for example, based on information on the jackpot symbol. Note that the first effect B is an effect that may be executed when the second requirement is satisfied in the jackpot game with 15R jackpot (for example, the jackpot in “Special Figure B”). Good.

  After that, the big hit game ends at the timing of t6 (that is, the third requirement is satisfied), and the gaming state shifts, but unlike the example shown in FIG. 129 (a), in the big hit game, the V pass switch SW2 is switched to. Since the passing of the game ball is detected, the big hit game state is shifted to the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state (second game state) at timing t6.

  Next, an example of the operation timing of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) and the second variable winning opening 235a between rounds will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 130 (a) shows a state in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened in the next round after the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is closed. FIG. 130B is a timing chart showing a first example of the timing of the first variable prize in the next round after the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) is closed. It is a timing chart which shows the 2nd example of the timing until the opening | mouth 234a (1st attacker) will be in an open state. FIG. 130 (c) shows the opening and closing of the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) when the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) opens and closes in at least two rounds in the big hit game. It is a timing chart explaining an example of a pattern. Here, A, B and C in the figure respectively indicate the types of gaming states, A is a special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, B is a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, C is a special figure high probability normal figure high probability state.

  First, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is closed until the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened in the next round. One example will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 130 (a), when a round in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened at the timing of t1 starts, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON and the first variable winning opening 234a ( The first door member 2341a of the first attacker is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, an effective period (attacker 1 effective period) for winning a prize to the first attacker for surely detecting a game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is set. Is done. Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing t2, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a post-round closing time (second closing time: for example, 0.9 seconds) indicated by a period F in the figure is set, and the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) in the open state is set. In order to surely detect the game ball that entered the ball, the valid period for winning the first attacker is extended by a third time (for example, 1 second). In this embodiment, the third time is set longer than the second closing time, but the third time may be set shorter than the second closing time, or the same It may be set to time. The second closing time and the third time can be set to arbitrary times.

  Subsequently, after the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is closed, when the second closing time elapses and the timing of t3 comes, the next round starts and the solenoid SOL2 is turned on. The shutter member 2351a is turned on and displaced from the closed state to the opened state, and the solenoid SOL3 is turned on and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the opened state. At this time, an effective period (Attacker 2 effective period) for winning the second attacker to surely detect a game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker), and V A V passing effective period is set as a period for treating the passing of the game ball to the passing switch SW2 as being effective. At this time, the first V opening time (for example, 0.1 second) described above is set. When the first V opening time elapses and the timing becomes t4, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a first V closing time (for example, 3 seconds) is set. Further, at this time, the V passing effective period is extended by a fourth time (for example, 0.1 second) so that the game ball passed while the V shutter 2352a is in the open state can be reliably detected. The On the other hand, at the timing of t4, the above-described attacker 1 valid period ends. Needless to say, the valid period of the attacker 1 may not be the same as the timing of the displacement of the V shutter 2352a to the closed state. Then, when the fourth time elapses and the timing of t5 comes, the V passing effective period ends. On the other hand, since the second variable prize opening 235a is set to open for a long time (long open) with an open time of 29.0 seconds, the shutter continues even after the V shutter 2352a is closed. Member 2351a remains open.

  Thereafter, when the first V closing time elapses and the timing becomes t6, the solenoid SOL3 is turned ON again, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At the same time, a V passage effective period is set. After that, for example, when the game ball that has entered the second variable prize opening 235a passes the V pass switch SW2 at the timing of t7, a detection signal is output from the V pass switch SW2. That is, the third game condition is established. Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF at the timing of t8, and the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, a post-round closing time (third closing time: for example, 0.9 seconds) indicated by a period G1 in the figure is set, and the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) in the open state is set. In order to surely detect the game ball that entered the ball, the valid period for winning the second attacker is extended by a third time (for example, 1 second). In addition, the second V opening time (for example, 1.1) is set so that the game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) in the open state can pass through the V passing switch SW2. Second) is set. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 130 (a), the second V opening time is set so as to end 0.1 seconds after the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is closed. ing. Further, the V passing effective period is extended by a fifth time (for example, 1.2 seconds) so that a game ball passed while the V shutter 2352a is open can be reliably detected. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 130A, the V passage effective period is set so as to end 0.1 seconds after the V shutter 2352a is closed. In the present embodiment, the second closing time and the third closing time are set to the same time, but may be set to different times.

  Then, after the second variable prize winning opening 235a (second attacker) is closed, when the third closing time elapses and the timing becomes t9, the next round starts and the solenoid SOL1 is turned on. Thus, the first door member 2341a of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the valid period of the attacker 1 is set as described above.

  On the other hand, when the third time elapses and the timing becomes t10, the above-described attacker 2 effective period ends. Thereafter, when the second V opening time set as described above elapses and the timing becomes t11, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. Subsequently, when the fifth time has elapsed and the timing of t12 is reached, the V passing effective period ends.

  Thus, in the example shown in FIG. 130 (a), the timing from t10 to t12 is the timing after the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is in the open state. In some cases, the closing time of the attacker can be shortened to reduce the loss of game balls due to so-called waste.

  Next, the timing at which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened in the next round after the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is closed is shown. A second example will be described. This example is the same as the first example shown in FIG. 130 (a) except that the closing time after the round set at the timing of t8 is different as shown in FIG. 130 (b). Only the points will be described, and the description of the same points will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 130 (b), in the second example, a post-round closing time (fourth closing time: for example, 1.3 seconds) indicated by a period G2 in the drawing is set at the timing t8, and thereafter When the fourth closing time has elapsed and the timing of t13 is reached, the next round starts, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) 2341a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the valid period of the attacker 1 is set as described above.

  In this way, in the example shown in FIG. 130B, the next round starts after the timing of t10 to t12, and the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is set to the open state. ing. Therefore, after the processing related to the first round in which the second attacker is released can be completed, the processing of the second round executed following the first round can be started. May be mitigated.

  FIG. 130 (c) shows a second variable winning opening when the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened and closed in at least two rounds (for example, the 14th and 16th rounds) in the jackpot game. It is an example of the opening / closing pattern of 235a (2nd attacker).

  In this example, the opening / closing pattern of the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) in the first V opening round (14th round) and the second variable in the second V opening round (16th round). The opening / closing pattern of the winning opening 235a (second attacker) is different, but the opening / closing pattern of the V shutter 2352a is the same in both the first V opening round and the second V opening round.

  Next, the operation from the start of the variation display of the special figure that becomes a big hit until the end of the big hit game will be described.

  FIG. 131 is a timing chart showing an example of the operation from the start of the variation display of the special figure that is a big hit until the end of the big hit game. This example shows the operation when special figure B is displayed in special figure 1 and a substantial 15R big hit is achieved. Here, A, B and C in the figure respectively indicate the types of gaming states, A is a special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, B is a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state, C is a special figure high probability normal figure high probability state.

  As shown in FIG. 131, when the variation display start condition in FIG. 1 is satisfied, the variation in FIG. 1 is started at the timing t1. At this time, the gaming state is a special figure low probability normal figure low probability state. Thereafter, the fluctuation display of the special figure 1 is stopped at the timing t2, and the display result (for example, the special figure B) is derived. Subsequently, after the big hit game is started at the timing of t3 and the big hit start effect is executed, the first round is started at the timing of t4 and the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is in the closed state. Displaces to the open state. Thereafter, when the round end condition is satisfied, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is displaced from the open state to the closed state at the timing of t5, and the inter-round effect is executed. Subsequently, at the timing of t6, when the second round starts and the first variable prize opening 234a (first attacker) is displaced from the closed state to the open state, and the round end condition is satisfied, at the timing of t7. The first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is displaced from the open state to the closed state, and the inter-round effect is executed. The above-described operation is repeated until the 15th round is completed. Thereafter, when the 16th round starts at the timing of t8, the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) is displaced from the closed state to the open state, and the V shutter 2352a is also displaced from the closed state to the open state. In this example, since the second attacker is open for a short time (for example, 0.1 seconds), there is almost no possibility of winning a game ball to the second attacker. After that, at the timing of t9, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) and the V shutter 2352a are both displaced from the open state to the closed state, and the big hit game end effect is executed. Thereafter, the big hit game ends at the timing of t10, the gaming state is shifted, and the variable display of FIG. 1 is started. At this time, when the start of the variable display of the special figure 2 is suspended, the variable display of the special figure 2 is started in preference to the special figure 1. In this example, there is no passing of the game ball to the V passing switch SW2 in the big hit game, so after the big hit game, the state shifts to the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state.

In the present embodiment, a series of effects can be executed in the period indicated by H in the drawing. As a series of effects, for example, the effects shown in FIGS. 70 to 86, the effects shown in FIGS. 88 to 93, the effects shown in FIGS. 101 to 117, and FIGS. 132 to 137 described later. Appearance examples, effects examples shown in FIGS. 140 to 145, effects examples shown in FIGS. 148 to 150, effects examples shown in FIGS. 153 to 156, effects examples shown in FIG. It is.
Next, a specific effect example in the pachinko machine of the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 132 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the eighth embodiment. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 132 (a), “decoration 3”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 1”, which is a combination of the decorative symbols of the loss, is confirmed and displayed. In addition, any one of the first special figure 1 hold display h11, the second special figure 1 hold display h12, the third special figure 1 hold display h13, and the fourth special figure 1 hold display h14 representing the hold of the special figure 1 Are also displayed in the default display mode.

  132 also shows the first special figure display device 212, the first special figure hold lamp 218, the second special figure display device 214, and the second special figure hold lamp 220. In FIG. 132 (a), since there are four variable display hold numbers in FIG. 1, four lamps in the first special figure hold lamp 218 are lit.

  In addition, on the first special figure display device 212 and the second special figure display device 214, the special symbol “special drawing E” is stopped and displayed. In the upper right corner portion of the decorative symbol display device 208, the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 variably displayed corresponding to the display state of the first special symbol display device 212 and the display state of the second special symbol display device 214. The special figure 2 and the 4th symbol t2 variably displayed are displayed. In FIG. 132 (a), the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 correspond to the “special symbol E” that is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212, for example, a white circle that is a lost symbol is stopped. It is displayed in the displayed state. The special figure 2 fourth symbol t2 is in a state in which, for example, a white square mark that is a lost symbol is stopped and displayed in correspondence with the “special figure E” that is stopped and displayed on the second special figure display device 214. It is displayed. In FIG. 132 and subsequent figures, the special symbol 1 and the 4th symbol t1 and the special symbol 2 and the 4th symbol t2 are displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 in such a manner that the symbol that is stopped and displayed can be recognized. However, in actuality, the symbols that are stopped and displayed are displayed in a manner that is difficult for the player to recognize. In addition, the special figure 1 4th symbol t1 and the special figure 2 4th symbol t2 may be displayed in a manner recognizable to the player.

  In FIG. 132 (b), the special figure 1 hold (first hold) is digested, and only the first special figure 1 hold display h11 to the third special figure 1 hold display h13 are displayed. In addition, the first special symbol display device 212 shown in FIG. 132 (b) has started the symbol variation display, and the decorative symbol display device 208 has also started the variation display of the decorative symbols. Note that various effects are possible in the decorative symbol variation display, and such an effect executed during the decorative symbol variation display is an example of a third effect. The third effect is not limited to display on the decorative symbol display device 208, but can also be executed by outputting sound from the speaker 120, blinking various lamps 418, or the like. Further, the third effect may include a pre-reading notice effect, a notice effect in the change, and the like. During the symbol variation display, the first special figure display device 212 repeats blinking in which all of the seven segments are turned on, turned off for a moment, and all of the seven segments are turned on again. In response to the symbol fluctuation display of the first special symbol display device 212, for example, the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 are also displayed in a manner that the colors shown in the circles change into a plurality of types.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 132 (c), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the first stop and the second stop are performed, and “decoration 4” is stopped and displayed in the left symbol display region 208a and the right symbol display region 208c, respectively. And a reach state is formed. At this time, you may make it perform the effect which alert | reports that it became the reach state. The effect of informing that such a reach state has been reached is an example of a third effect.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 132 (d), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs a display that develops into super reach. In the super reach state, the decorative symbols displayed in the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display area 208c are displayed small in the upper left corner. Such an effect in super reach is an example of a third effect.

  After that, when the super reach is finished, as shown in FIG. 132 (e), the decoration symbol display device 208 performs the third stop, and “decoration 4” is stopped and displayed in the middle symbol display area 208b. The symbol begins to fluctuate. In other words, a temporary stop display is made with a combination of decorative patterns of “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4”.

  After that, as shown in FIG. 132 (f), the special figure A, which is the 16R big hit symbol, is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, and the first special figure 1 is displayed in the fourth figure t1. A black circle symbol corresponding to “Special Figure A” that is stopped and displayed on the figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed. Correspondingly, the decoration symbol display device 208 displays the combination of the decoration symbols of “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” in a stopped manner (determined display), and one special game of variable game is played. finish.

  When “Special Figure A” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, the big hit game is started, and the decorative symbol display apparatus 208 executes the big hit start effect as shown in FIG. 132 (g). At this time, a display for instructing right-handed is also performed.

  Thereafter, when the big hit start effect is finished and the process proceeds to the first round, as shown in FIG. 132 (h), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the first round of the big hit game. In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. Since the big hit game this time is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), a display to that effect is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. "First time" is displayed. In the lower center part of FIG. 132 (h), the control state in the main control unit 300 is shown, indicating that the control state is the first round of the big hit game.

  FIG. 132 (i) shows the effect contents in the fourth round. As shown in FIG. 132 (i), in the decorative symbol display device 208, in the 16th round, whether or not there is a great chance that the second variable winning award 235a is open for a long time and is easy to pass V. As a result, the contents of the effect that succeeded in the promotion effect are executed. That is, it is notified that the game is a big hit game in which the third game condition is easily established. As shown in FIG. 132 (i), the main control unit 300 is in the control state of the fourth round.

Thereafter, when the big hit game progresses and the 15th round is reached, an effect as shown in FIG. 132 (j) is executed. That is, as shown in FIG. 132 (j), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the 15th round of the big hit game, and allows V to pass in the next round, that is, the 16th round. “Aim at V at next R” is displayed. As a result, the player may be able to reliably pass V. As shown in FIG. 132 (j), the main control unit 300 is in the control state of the 15th round.

  Thereafter, at the 16th round, the second variable prize opening 235a is opened, and the V shutter 2352a is opened so that V can be easily passed. In the decorative symbol display device 208, FIG. As shown in (), a display indicating that it is the 16th round is performed, and a display “V Aim” that promotes the passage of V is performed. As shown in FIG. 132 (k), the main control unit 300 is in the control state of the 16th round.

  If there is a game ball passing (V passing) to the V passing switch SW2 in the second variable winning opening 235a at the timing shown in FIG. 132 (l), as shown in FIG. The symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. That is, the display of “V”, which is a notification that the probability change has been confirmed, is displayed based on the fact that V has passed.

  Thereafter, when the 16th round is completed, a big hit game end effect is performed in a manner as shown in FIG. 132 (n). In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition is established by passing V in the 16th round, so 150 symbols of change display are made after the jackpot game is over (after the third requirement is satisfied). While it is being performed, it shifts to a probable change state (special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state). Therefore, in the end effect of the big hit game, the “Yoshimune mode entry” display (second effect) indicating the transition to the probable change state is performed.

  When the big hit game is finished as described above, the state shifts to a probability change state (special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state), and as shown in FIG. 132 (o), the decorative symbol display device 208 is in a probability change state. The “Yoshimune Mode” effect is executed, and “Defeat the enemy and hit the jackpot” is explained to explain the contents of the jackpot display. At this time, since there was no hold of the variable display of the special figure 2 and there were three hold of the variable display of the special figure 1, the hold (the first hold) of the special figure 1 is digested, and the first special figure display device The symbol variation display 212 is started, and the decoration symbol display device 208 also starts the variation display of the decoration symbol. The decorative symbol is displayed in a variable manner at the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In addition, the remaining number of symbol variation displays in which the probability variation state can be executed is displayed at the upper center of the decorative symbol display device 208, and is decremented by one each time symbol variation display is started. Further, on the right side of the decorative symbol display device 208, the first special figure 2 hold display h21, the second special figure 2 hold display h22, the third special figure 2 hold display h23, and the fourth special figure 2 hold display are displayed. Although h24 is displayed, since there is no hold of the variable display of the special figure 2, it is displayed that both are blank. In addition, the display of the number of consecutive resorts and the display for instructing the right-hand hit, which have been displayed in the big hit game, are continued.

  Thereafter, during the execution of the symbol fluctuation display of the first special figure display device 212, if there are at least four game balls winning in the second special figure start port 232, the fluctuation display of the four special figures 2 is suspended. Then, as shown in FIG. 132 (p), all four holding lamps in the second special figure holding lamp 220 are lit. In addition, in the first special figure 2 hold display h21 to the fourth special figure 2 hold display h24, the hold display in the default display mode is performed.

  FIG. 133 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the eighth embodiment. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. Note that the effects shown in FIGS. 133 (a) to 133 (e) are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 132 (a) to 132 (e), and a description thereof will be omitted.

  In the example shown in FIG. 133 (f), a combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” is stopped and displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 (determined display). The special display B, which is a 16R jackpot symbol, is stopped and displayed on the figure display device 212, and the fourth figure t of the special figure 1 is displayed.

1, a blue circle symbol corresponding to “Special Figure B” stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed.

  When “Special Figure B” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, the big hit game is started, and the decorative symbol display apparatus 208 executes a big hit start effect as shown in FIG. 133 (g). Since the effects shown in FIGS. 133 (g) and 133 (h) are the same as those shown in FIGS. 132 (g) and 132 (h) and described above, description thereof is omitted here.

  Thereafter, in the fourth round, the production contents as shown in FIG. 133 (i) are executed. That is, as shown in FIG. 133 (i), in the decorative symbol display device 208, as a result of the promotion effect described above, the content of the effect that failed in the promotion effect is executed. That is, it is informed that the game is a big hit game in which the third game condition is difficult to be established. Such a failure effect is continuously performed until the 15th round, as shown in FIG. 133 (j).

  After that, when the big hit game progresses and becomes the 16th round, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened and the V shutter 2352a is opened, both of which are open for a very short time. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to pass V. In the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 133 (k), the above-described failure effect is continuously performed even in the 16th round.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 133 (l), there is no passing of the game ball to the V pass switch SW2, and as shown in FIG. 133 (m), when the 16th round is completed, as shown in FIG. 133 (n). The end effect of the big hit game is performed in such a manner. In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition was not satisfied because there was no V pass in the 16th round, so 100 games after the jackpot game ended (after satisfying the third requirement). While the symbol variation display is performed, the electronic support state (the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state) is entered. In the end effect of the big hit game, a “search mode entry” display (first effect) indicating that the state is shifted to the electric support state is performed.

  When the big hit game is finished as described above, the state shifts to the electric support state (special figure low probability normal figure high probability state), and in the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. An effect of “search mode” to a certain extent is executed, and a display of “big hit with princess discovery” explaining the contents of the effect display that is a big hit is performed. At this time, since there was no hold of the variable display of the special figure 2 and there were three hold of the variable display of the special figure 1, the hold (the first hold) of the special figure 1 is digested, and the first special figure display device The symbol variation display 212 is started, and the decoration symbol display device 208 also starts the variation display of the decoration symbol. The decorative symbol is displayed in a variable manner at the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In addition, the remaining number of symbol variation displays that can execute the electric support state is displayed at the upper center of the decorative symbol display device 208, and is decremented by one each time symbol variation display is started. Further, on the right side of the decorative symbol display device 208, the first special figure 2 hold display h21, the second special figure 2 hold display h22, the third special figure 2 hold display h23, and the fourth special figure 2 hold display are displayed. Although h24 is displayed, since there is no hold of the variable display of the special figure 2, it is displayed that both are blank. In addition, the display of the number of consecutive resorts and the display for instructing the right-hand hit, which have been displayed in the big hit game, are continued.

  Thereafter, during the execution of the symbol fluctuation display of the first special figure display device 212, if there are at least four game balls winning in the second special figure start port 232, the fluctuation display of the four special figures 2 is suspended. Then, as shown in FIG. 133 (p), all four holding lamps in the second special figure holding lamp 220 are lit. In addition, in the first special figure 2 hold display h21 to the fourth special figure 2 hold display h24, the hold display in the default display mode is performed.

  In the probabilistic state or the electric support state, the third game item such as special figure B in special figure 1 is used.

Even in the big hit game that is transferred when the big hit is difficult to be established, there is a case where the production by the production example is executed. Or in such a case, you may perform the specific production different from this production example.

  FIG. 134 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the eighth embodiment. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. The effects shown in FIGS. 134 (a) to 134 (h) are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 132 (a) to 132 (h), and thus description thereof is omitted here.

  FIG. 134 (i) shows the contents of the effect in the fourth round. That is, as shown in FIG. 134 (i), the decorative symbol display device 208 executes the contents of the effect that has failed in the promotion effect as a result of the promotion effect described above. That is, at this time, it is suggested that the game is a big hit game in which the third game condition is hardly established.

  However, in this effect example, as shown in FIG. 134 (j), the revival effect is performed in the fourteenth round, and the effect content indicating that the promotion effect is successful is executed in the decorative symbol display device 208. That is, it is informed that the game is a big hit game in which the third game condition is easily established.

  Thereafter, the effects shown in FIGS. 134 (k) to 134 (q) are performed. These effects are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 132 (j) to 132 (p).

  Note that, as in this production example, for example, the opening pattern of the second variable prize opening 235a is different between the jackpot game where the revival effect is performed after the failure effect and the jackpot game where the success effect is performed. In addition, as a result, it may be possible to differentiate the profit by changing the number of balls in the jackpot game.

  FIG. 135 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the eighth embodiment. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. The effects shown in FIGS. 135 (a) to 135 (k) are the same as those described with reference to FIGS. 133 (a) to 133 (k) and will not be described here.

  FIG. 135 (l) shows a state in which the game ball passes (V passes) to the V pass switch SW2, unlike the example shown in FIG. 133 (l). Then, as shown in FIG. 135 (m), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. In this case, “V” may not be displayed. Further, a unique display other than the display of “V” may be performed. Further, instead of displaying “V”, notification may be performed by other notification means (for example, output of sound, blinking of a lamp, etc.) other than the display. Further, when the notification that the probability variation has been confirmed is executed by a plurality of types of means (for example, a notification means by voice output and a notification means by display), the notification may be executed only by some means. .

  Then, when the 16th round is finished, the big hit game finish effect is performed in the manner shown in FIG. 135 (n). In this production example, although there was a V pass in the 16th round, it occurred in a big hit game in which the third game condition is difficult to be satisfied (that is, an irregular V pass), so that the transition to the probability change state is made. “Yoshimune mode entry” is not displayed (second effect), but “search mode entry” is displayed (first effect) indicating the transition to the electric support state, as shown in FIG. 135 (n). ) Is performed. In this case, you may make it display that the period which is an electric support state is until symbol change display of 100 times is performed. In the present embodiment, whether or not to display this “search mode entry” is based on, for example, the type of jackpot symbol.

However, it is not displayed based on whether or not V has passed. In addition, regarding whether or not to display “search mode entry”, it is a big hit game that has made a big hit with a big hit symbol (for example, “special figure B”) indicating that it is a big hit that the third game condition is difficult to be established. In the state, the determination may be made based on the presence of V passage.

  When the big hit game is completed as described above, the state shifts to a probable change state (special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state), and effects as shown in FIGS. 135 (o) and 135 (p) are executed. Since the effects shown in FIGS. 135 (o) and 135 (p) are the same as those shown in FIGS. 132 (o) and 132 (p) and described above, the description thereof is omitted here.

  In the above-described effect example, one kind of effect in the probability variation state and one effect in the electric support state are shown, but there may be a plurality of kinds, for example, different depending on the type of the special figure that is stopped and displayed. It may be. Also, one type of each of the first effect and the second effect is shown, but there may be a plurality of types. For example, in the first effect, the effect of displaying the above-mentioned “search mode entry”. In addition, as shown in FIG. 135 (q), an effect of displaying “adventure mode entry” may be executed. The same applies to the second performance.

  In the probability variation state or the electric support state, even in the big hit game that is transferred when the third game condition such as special figure B in FIG. There is a case.

  FIG. 136 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the eighth embodiment. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. The effects shown in FIGS. 136 (a) to 136 (k) are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 132 (a) to 132 (k), and the description thereof will be omitted here.

  In FIG. 136 (l), unlike the example shown in FIG. 132 (l), there is no passing of the game ball (V passage) to the V passage switch SW2, and the state where the 16th round is completed is shown. Then, as shown in FIG. 136 (m), a “search mode entry” display (first effect) indicating the transition to the electric support state is performed. In this production example, the game is in the second big hit game state that is likely to be shifted to the probable change state, but because the third game condition is not satisfied due to the absence of V passing in the 16th round (that is, by the irregular This indicates that the first effect is being performed (because V has not passed).

  When the big hit game is finished as described above, the state shifts to the electric support state (special figure low probability normal figure high probability state), and the effects as shown in FIGS. 136 (n) and 136 (o) are executed. The effects shown in FIG. 136 (n) and FIG. 136 (o) are the same as those shown in FIG. 133 (o) and FIG. 133 (p) and are not described here.

  In addition, in the production example described above, the case where there is no V passage after the success production is performed is shown. However, as shown in FIG. 134, the revival production is performed after the failure production, and then the V passage is performed. The same effect is also performed when there is no. Here, when the revival effect is performed after the failure effect, and there is no V passage after that, for example, an effect with a content different from FIG. 136 (m) may be performed as the first effect. Good. Further, the effect in the electric support state may be different from the “search mode”.

  FIG. 137 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the eighth embodiment. The effect example shown in FIG. 137 is the same as the effect example shown in FIG. 136 except that the effect shown in FIG. 136 (m) is different from the effect shown in FIG. 137 (m). Only the point will be described, and the description of other points will be omitted.

  In FIG. 137 (m), unlike the effect shown in FIG. 136 (m), the “Yoshimune mode entry” display (second effect) indicating that the state is to be changed to the probability change state is performed. In this production example, in the second jackpot gaming state that is likely to be shifted to the probability variation state, even if the third gaming condition is not satisfied due to the absence of V passage in the 16th round, the state is shifted to the electric support state. The second effect is performed without displaying the “search mode entry” indicating “the first effect”. In this case, for example, the second effect is to determine whether or not to display based on the type of jackpot symbol without determining whether or not to display based on whether or not V has passed. Alternatively, it may be determined whether or not to display based on whether or not V has passed.

In the present embodiment, only one of the effect example shown in FIG. 136 and the effect example shown in FIG. 137 is executed when an irregular V-pass is made in the second big hit game state. Alternatively, both may be executed.
[Embodiment 9]

  A ninth embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above. The pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment is described as an example provided with the attacker unit 2340 shown in FIG. 124. Of course, the pachinko machine 100 provided with the game board 200 as shown in FIG. Embodiments can also be applied.

  FIG. 138 (a-1) shows an example of the stop symbol aspect (first symbol aspect) of the special figure 1 in the pachinko machine of the ninth embodiment. FIG. 138 (a-2) An example of the stop symbol aspect (1st symbol aspect) of the special figure 2 in the pachinko machine of 9 embodiment is shown.

  In FIG. 138 (a-1) and FIG. 138 (a-2), five types of special drawings from “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure E” are shown as the stop symbol forms in the symbol variation display.

  Also in the ninth embodiment, the stop symbol aspect of the special figure 1 and the stop symbol aspect of the special figure 2 are common. In the ninth embodiment, there are big hits of 16 rounds and big hits of 4 rounds, both of which are big hits with electric support. Specifically, in Special Figure 2, the jackpot symbols are all jackpots (special jackpots) that are expected to be probable, and “Special Figure A” and “Special Figure B” are 16 round jackpots. "C" is a big hit for 4 rounds. On the other hand, in Special Figure 1, only “Special Figure A” and “Special Figure B” are jackpots (special jackpots) scheduled to be probable, and “Special Figure C” is a jackpot that is not scheduled to acquire a probable change, “Special Figure A” is a big hit for 16 rounds, and “Special Figure B” and “Special Figure C” are a big hit for 4 rounds. In this way, "Special Figure A" and "Special Figure B" in Special Figure 1 and Special Figure 2 in Special Figure, which are special jackpots where the second jackpot gaming state that is likely to shift to the second gaming state is started. A "to" Special Figure C "may be referred to as the second symbol, and the jackpot at which the first jackpot gaming state is not started (that is, it is difficult to shift to the second gaming state) is not scheduled to acquire the probability variation. “Special figure C” in special figure 1 is sometimes referred to as a first symbol.

  FIG. 138 (b-1) shows an example of the action of the attacker during the jackpot game of FIG. 1 and the game state to be transferred after the jackpot game. FIG. 138 (b-2) An example of the operation of the attacker during the jackpot game of 2 and the game state to be transferred after the jackpot game are shown.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure A is displayed in the special figure 1 and transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the third round, and in the fourth round, The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds, and the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from rounds 5 to 16.

. That is, the special figure A in the special figure 1 is a pattern indicating that a large number of game balls are 16 round big hits that can enter the variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 16 rounds.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure B is displayed in the special figure 1 and is transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the third round, and in the fourth round, The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds. That is, the special figure B in the special figure 1 is a pattern indicating that a large number of game balls can be put into the variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 4 rounds.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure C is displayed in the special figure 1, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the third round. The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened only for 0.1 second. That is, in the special figure C in the special figure 1, from 1 to 3 rounds, many game balls can enter the variable winning opening in any round, but in the 4th round, entering the variable winning opening. It is a design showing that it is a real 3 round jackpot with almost no possibility of.

  In the jackpot game to which the “Special Figure A” and “Special Figure B” are displayed in the special figure 2, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is 29.0 from the first round to the third round. The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds in the 4th round, and the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened from the 5th round to the 16th round. Release for 29.0 seconds. In other words, special figure A and special figure B in special figure 2 are symbols indicating that 16 gaming rounds are possible to enter a variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 16 rounds. is there.

  In the jackpot game to which the transition is made with “Special Figure C” displayed in the special figure 2, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the third round, and the fourth round Then, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds. That is, the special figure C in the special figure 2 is a pattern indicating that a large number of game balls can be placed in the variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 4 rounds.

  In the present embodiment, in any of the big hit games with any of the above-mentioned designs, the game ball that has entered while the second variable winning opening 235a is opened becomes four rounds in the probability variation area in the second variable winning opening 235a. When the V passing switch SW2 provided is passed, the probability variation operation area is turned ON, and after the big hit game is finished, while the symbol variation display is performed 150 times, the special figure high probability normal figure high probability which is an example of the second game state State is maintained. On the other hand, if the game ball does not pass through the V passing switch SW2 in the big hit game, the probability variation operation region is not turned ON (the probability variation operation region remains OFF), and after the big hit game ends, 100 symbols. While the variable display is performed, the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state which is an example of the first gaming state is maintained.

  In the ninth embodiment, the third game condition is satisfied when the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW2 of the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) in the fourth round. Therefore, the big hit by special figure C of special figure 1 is not 0%, but the possibility is very low, and it can be said that it is a big hit that is not scheduled to be acquired. On the other hand, the big hit by special figures A and B of special figure 1 has a sufficient opening time of the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker), and the possibility of passing the game ball to the V passage switch SW2 It is high, and it can be said that it is a big hit scheduled to get a certain change.

  In addition, in special figure 2, special figure A and B are displayed and the attacker is made in the jackpot game that is transferred.

The movement is the same as the operation of the attacker in the case of special figure A in special figure 1. Also, the action of the attacker in the jackpot game to which the special figure C is displayed in the special figure 2 is the same as the action of the attacker in the special figure B in the special figure 1. Therefore, any of the big hits by the special winning symbols (special illustrations A to C) of the special figure 2 has a sufficient opening time of the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker), and the game to the V pass switch SW2 The possibility of passing the sphere is high, and it can be said that it is a big hit scheduled to acquire certainty. It should be noted that the operation of the attacker in the big hit according to the special figures A to C in the special figure 2 may be different from the operation mode of the attacker in the big hit according to the special figure A or the special figure B in the special figure 1.

  In this way, the big hit gaming state in which the third gaming condition is difficult to be satisfied is called the first big hit gaming state, as in the big hit game with the four round big hit that is displayed and transferred in the special figure C in the special figure 1. Yes, special figure A in special figure 1 and special figure A and special figure B in special figure 2 are displayed and the big hit game by 16 round big hits, special figure B in special figure 1 and special figure in special figure 2 The jackpot gaming state in which the third gaming condition is more likely to be established and the second gaming state is easier to start than the first jackpot gaming state, as in the jackpot gaming by the four round jackpot in which C is displayed and transferred. There is a second big hit game state.

  Next, the operations of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) and the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) in the jackpot game in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. To do.

  FIG. 139 (a) is a diagram for explaining the operations of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) and the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) in a big round of four rounds (substantially three rounds). FIG. 139 (b) is a diagram for explaining the operations of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) and the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) in the four round special jackpot. FIG. 139 (c) is a diagram for explaining the operations of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) and the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) in the 16 round special jackpot. FIG. 139 (d) shows the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) and the second variable winning opening 235a (second) in 16 rounds (substantially 3 rounds). Is a diagram for describing the operation of the attacker).

In this embodiment, the round in which the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened is the fourth round in any big hit. In other words, in any big win, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened in the same round, and V passage can occur.
Next, a specific effect example in the pachinko machine of the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 140 is a diagram illustrating a specific effect example in the big hit game of 4R special big hit. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  As described above, when “Special Figure B” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. A message indicating that the game is in the first round is displayed, and a display for instructing the player to make a right turn is performed. In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In this big hit game, since it is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), the display of the number of consecutive games is “first”.

  In this effect example, when the big hit game is started, an effect is made in which it is difficult for the player to recognize whether or not the 16th round big hit is executed up to the 16th round. That is, at the start of the big hit game, the performance is performed in a manner in which it is difficult to recognize whether it is a big hit of 4 rounds or a big hit of 16 rounds.

  FIG. 140 (b) shows the contents of the effect in the second round. As shown in FIG. 140 (b), in the decorative symbol display device 208, whether or not there is a great chance that the second variable prize opening 235a is open for a long time and easily passes V in the fourth round. As a result, the contents of the effect that succeeded in the promotion effect are executed. That is, it is notified that the game is a big hit game in which the third game condition is easily established.

  Thereafter, in the third round, as shown in FIG. 140 (c), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the third round of the jackpot game, and at the next round, that is, the fourth round. The message “Aim at V at next R” is displayed to prompt the user to pass V. As a result, the player may be able to reliably pass V.

  Thereafter, in the fourth round, the second variable prize opening 235a is opened, and the V shutter 2352a is opened so that V can be easily passed. In the decorative symbol display device 208, FIG. ), A display indicating that the current position is the fourth round is displayed, and “V Aim” is displayed to promote the passage of V.

  If there is a passing of the game ball (V passing) to the V passing switch SW2 in the second variable prize opening 235a at the timing shown in FIG. 140 (e), the decoration is displayed as shown in FIG. 140 (f). The symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed.

  In this example effect, an effect for notifying whether or not the fifth round or later (extra round) is executed during the big hit game may be performed. In this case, for example, a failure effect may be performed to notify that the fifth and subsequent rounds are not executed.

  Thereafter, when the fourth round is finished, the big hit game is finished in the manner shown in FIG. 140 (g). In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition is satisfied by passing V in the fourth round, so the probability variation state (special high probability map) is displayed while the symbol variation display is performed 150 times after the jackpot game. (High probability state). In the end effect of the big hit game, a “Yoshimune mode entry” display (second effect) indicating the transition to the probable change state is performed.

  FIG. 141 is a diagram illustrating a specific effect example in the jackpot game of 16R special jackpot. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  As described above, when “Special Figure A” is stopped on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. A message indicating that the game is in the first round is displayed, and a display for instructing the player to make a right turn is performed. In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In this big hit game, since it is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), the display of the number of consecutive games is “first”.

Also in this production example, when the big hit game is started, an effect is made in which it is difficult for the player to recognize whether or not the 16 round big hit is executed up to the 16th round. That is, at the start of the big hit game, the performance is performed in a manner in which it is difficult to recognize whether it is a big hit of 4 rounds or a big hit of 16 rounds.

  Thereafter, the effects shown in FIGS. 141 (b) to 141 (f) are performed. These effects are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 140 (b) to 140 (f).

  In this production example, following the notification that the probability variation acquisition is confirmed as shown in FIG. 141 (f) due to the passage of V, as shown in FIG. 141 (g), the fifth and subsequent rounds (extra round) An effect of displaying “extra round get” to be executed is performed. That is, it is notified that it is a 16 round special big hit. At this time, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “SUPER” characters indicating that it is a 16-round special big hit below the decorative symbol combination displayed in the upper left corner.

  In this production example, the notification that the extra round is executed after the notification that the probability variation has been confirmed (display of “V”) is performed, but the extra round is executed. After the display, the notification that the probability variation acquisition is confirmed may be performed, or these may be performed simultaneously. Further, in this effect example, the indication that the extra round is executed is the V passage timing, but it may be displayed at a timing other than the V passage. For example, at the end of the fourth round, It may be executed when the first notification time has elapsed since the start of the round.

  Thereafter, up to the 16th round, after the big hit effect as shown in FIG. 141 (h) is executed, the end effect of the big hit game is performed in the manner shown in FIG. 141 (i). In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition is satisfied by passing V in the fourth round, so the probability variation state (special high probability map) is displayed while the symbol variation display is performed 150 times after the jackpot game. (High probability state). In the end effect of the big hit game, a “Yoshimune mode entry” display (second effect) indicating the transition to the probable change state is performed.

  FIG. 142 is a diagram illustrating another example of specific effects in the jackpot game of 16R special jackpot. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. Unlike the example of the effect shown in FIG. 141, this example of the effect is performed in the form in which it is informed that it is a 16-round special jackpot since the jackpot game was started.

As described above, when "Special Figure A" is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. A message indicating that the game is in the first round is displayed, and a display for instructing the player to make a right turn is performed. In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. Here, “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” are stopped and displayed as a combination of the decorative symbols, and further below that “SUPER” indicates that it is a 16-round special jackpot Is displayed. In other words, the combination of the decorative pattern of “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is stopped and displayed, so that the second variable prize opening 235a is opened for a long time and passes V in the fourth round. It is notified in advance that a great chance of becoming an easy state is reached, and by displaying the letters “SUPER”, it is notified in advance that the extra round will be executed. In this example, when the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is stopped and displayed, the characters “SUPER” are always displayed at the start of the big hit game. The execution of the extra round is notified in advance, but the character “SUPER” is not displayed even when the combination of the decoration pattern “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is stopped. It may be difficult to recognize whether it is a 4-round big hit or a 16-round big hit at the start of the big hit game. In the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed. In this big hit game, since it is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), the display of the number of consecutive games is “first”.

  Thereafter, until the second round, the big hit effect as shown in FIG. 142 (b) is continuously performed. In this production example, when the big hit game is started, it is informed that the second variable prize winning opening 235a is opened for a long time in the fourth round, and a great chance to easily pass V is reached. No promotion will be performed. In addition, the combination of the decorative pattern of “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is stopped and displayed, and in the fourth round, the second variable winning opening 235a is open for a long time and easily passes V. Even if it is notified in advance at the start of the jackpot game that a big chance to come, the promotion effect may be performed during the jackpot game.

  Thereafter, the effects shown in FIGS. 142 (c) to 142 (f) are performed. These effects are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 141 (c) to 141 (f).

  In this production example, as described above, it is informed in advance that the extra round will be executed at the start of the big hit game, so that notification that the probability variation acquisition has been confirmed (display of “V”) has been performed. A display indicating that the extra round will be executed later is not performed, and the jackpot effect described above is executed as shown in FIG. 142 (g). This jackpot effect is executed until the end of the 16th round, as shown in FIG. 142 (h). In this effect example as well, an effect of displaying that the extra round is executed may be executed in the manner shown in FIG. 141 (g).

  In this way, after the big hit effect is executed up to the 16th round, the big hit game end effect is performed in the manner shown in FIG. 142 (i). In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition is satisfied by passing V in the fourth round, so the probability variation state (special high probability map) is displayed while the symbol variation display is performed 150 times after the jackpot game. (High probability state). In the end effect of the big hit game, a “Yoshimune mode entry” display (second effect) indicating the transition to the probable change state is performed.

  FIG. 143 is a diagram illustrating a specific effect example in the big hit game of 4R big hit (substantially 3R big hit). The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  As described above, when “Special Figure C” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. A message indicating that the game is in the first round is displayed, and a display for instructing the player to make a right turn is performed. In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In this big hit game, since it is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), the display of the number of consecutive games is “first”.

  In this production example, when the big hit game is started, the player makes it difficult for the player to recognize whether or not the 16th round big hit is executed up to the 16th round. That is, at the start of the big hit game, the performance is performed in a manner in which it is difficult to recognize whether it is a big hit for four rounds (or a big hit for three rounds) or a big hit for 16 rounds.

  FIG. 143 (b) shows the contents of the effect in the second round. As shown in FIG. 143 (b), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the above-described promotion effect is performed, and as a result, the effect content that failed in the promotion effect is executed. That is, it is informed that the game is a big hit game in which the third game condition is difficult to be established.

  Thereafter, in the third round, as shown in FIG. 143 (c), the above-mentioned jackpot effect is executed in the decorative symbol display device 208.

  Thereafter, in the fourth round, the second variable prize opening 235a is opened and the V shutter 2352a is opened. However, since both are open for a very short time, it is extremely difficult to pass V. It has become. In the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 143 (d), the above-mentioned jackpot effect is continuously performed even in the fourth round.

  FIG. 143 (e) shows a state in which the game ball has passed (V pass) to the V pass switch SW2 in the fourth round. Then, as shown in FIG. 143 (f), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed.

  When the fourth round is completed, a big hit game end effect is performed in the manner shown in FIG. 143 (g). In this production example, there was a V pass in the fourth round, but it occurred in a big hit game in which the third game condition was difficult to be satisfied (that is, an irregular V pass), so that the transition to the probability change state is made. “Yoshimune mode entry” is not displayed, but as shown in FIG. 143 (g), “search mode entry” is displayed (first effect) indicating the transition to the electric support state.

  FIG. 144 is a diagram illustrating another example of specific effects in the jackpot game of 16R special jackpot. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. The effects shown in FIGS. 144 (a) to 144 (d) are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 141 (a) to 141 (d), and a description thereof will be omitted.

  Unlike the example shown in FIG. 141 (e), FIG. 144 (e) shows a state in which the fourth round is completed without passing the game ball (V passage) to the V passage switch SW2. Then, at the timing when the second variable winning opening 235a is displaced from the open state to the closed state, as shown in FIG. An effect to display is performed. That is, it is notified that it is a 16 round special big hit. At this time, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “SUPER” characters indicating that it is a 16-round special big hit below the decorative symbol combination displayed in the upper left corner.

  In this production example, the indication that the extra round is executed at the timing when there is no V passage and the second variable prize opening 235a is closed is performed, but the extra round is executed. The display timing is not limited to this.

  Thereafter, up to the 16th round, after the big hit effect as shown in FIG. 144 (g) is executed, the end effect of the big hit game (showing the transition to the electric support state) is performed in the manner shown in FIG. 144 (h). “Search mode entry” is displayed (first effect). In this production example, the second big hit gaming state that is easily shifted to the probable change state is entered, but the third gaming condition is not satisfied because there is no V passing in the fourth round (that is, by the irregular This indicates that the first effect is being performed (because V has not passed).

  Note that this effect example can be applied even when the effect is performed in a manner in which it is informed that it is a 16-round special jackpot since the jackpot game is started, as shown in FIG. 142, for example. Needless to say, in such a case, an effect that the extra round is executed at the timing shown in FIG. 144 (f) may be further performed.

  FIG. 145 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the present embodiment. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. The effect example shown in FIG. 145 is an example of the effect that is executed when the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed in the special figure 1 and the jackpot game is started in the probability variation state described above.

  FIG. 145 (a) shows a state in which the symbol variation display is performed by the second special figure display device 214 during the production of the “Yoshimune mode” indicating that the probability variation state described above. Correspondingly, the decorative symbol is displayed in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, and the special symbol 2 and the fourth symbol t2 are also displayed in a plurality of types, for example, in the square mark. Fluctuation display is performed in a changing manner. At this time, the fluctuation display of the two special figures 1 is held, and the two lamps in the first special figure holding lamp 218 are lit. In the present embodiment, the first special figure 1 hold display h11, the second special figure 1 hold display h12, and the third special figure 1 hold that represent the hold in FIG. Although the display h13 and the fourth special figure 1 hold display h14 are not displayed, these hold displays may be performed. On the other hand, in the probability variation state, the first special figure 2 hold display h21, the second special figure 2 hold display h22, the third special figure 2 hold display h23, and the fourth special display are displayed on the right side of the decorative symbol display device 208. The hold display h24 of FIG. 2 is displayed. Here, since there is no suspension of the variable display of the special figure 2, a display indicating that both are blank is made.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 145 (a), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that the remaining number of symbol variation displays that can execute the probability variation state is 39. In addition, at this time, since the first jackpot game is executed from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state, and then the probability change state after the two big hit games are executed in the probability change state or the electric support state, In the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, the “third time” is displayed.

  Thereafter, when the symbol variation display by the second special symbol display device 214 is completed, as shown in FIG. 145 (b), the “special symbol D” indicating the first loss symbol is displayed on the second special symbol display device 214. At the same time, the decoration symbol display device 208 stops the display (decision display) of the combination of the decoration symbols “decoration 6”-“decoration 2”-“decoration 3” and notifies that it is a loss.

  Subsequently, since there is no hold of the variable display of the special figure 2 and there are two hold of the variable display of the special figure 1, as shown in FIG. 145 (c), the hold (the first hold) of the special figure 1 is As a result of the digestion, the symbol variation display of the first special symbol display device 212 is started, and the decorative symbol display device 208 also starts the variation display of the decorative symbol and the special symbol first symbol fourth symbol t1. At this time, the display of the remaining number of times on the decorative symbol display device 208 is decremented by 1 to 38 times.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 145 (d), “Special Figure A”, which is a 16R jackpot symbol, is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, and the first special figure 1 is displayed on the fourth figure t1. A black circle symbol corresponding to “Special Figure A” that is stopped and displayed on the figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed. In accordance with this, the decoration symbol display device 208 displays the combination of the decoration symbols of “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” in a stopped manner (determined display), and the special-game variable game ends.

  When “Special Figure A” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, the big hit game is started, and the decorative symbol display apparatus 208 executes a big hit start effect as shown in FIG. 145 (e). The

  Thereafter, when the big hit start effect is finished and the first round is started, as shown in FIG. 145 (f), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that the first round of the big hit game. In this production example, in the probability variation state or the electric support state, since the big hit game in the special figure 1 is shifted to the big hit game in the special figure 1 instead of the big hit in the special figure 2, the display of the number of consecutive resorts is reset to “first time”.

ing. It should be noted that the number of consecutive games may not be reset even in the case of the big hit in FIG.

  Thereafter, the effects shown in FIGS. 145 (g) to 145 (m) are performed. These effects are the same as those shown in FIGS. 132 (i) to 132 (o) and described above.

In this production example, the number of consecutive games is reset when a big hit is made in the special figure 1 in the probability variation state or the electric support state. For example, when there is an irregular V passage, The number of times may be reset. Further, even when there is an irregular V passage, the number of consecutive resorts may be incremented without being reset. In addition, when there is an irregular V passing, the number of consecutive resorts may not be incremented and may not be updated while maintaining the current state.
[Embodiment 10]

  A tenth embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above. The pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment is described as an example provided with the attacker unit 2340 shown in FIG. 124. Of course, the pachinko machine 100 provided with the game board 200 as shown in FIG. Embodiments can also be applied.

  FIG. 146 (a-1) shows an example of the stop symbol pattern (first symbol pattern) of FIG. 1 in the pachinko machine according to the tenth embodiment. FIG. 146 (a-2) An example of the stop symbol aspect (1st symbol aspect) of the special figure 2 in the pachinko machine of 10 embodiment is shown.

  In FIG. 146 (a-1) and FIG. 146 (a-2), five types of special drawings from “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure E” are shown as the stop symbol forms in the symbol variation display.

  Also in the tenth embodiment, the stop symbol form of special figure 1 and the stop symbol aspect of special figure 2 are common. Further, in the tenth embodiment, the big hits are big hits with 16 rounds of electric support, but in Special Figure 2, the big hit symbols are all big hits (special big hits) scheduled to acquire probability variation. On the other hand, in Special Figure 1, only “Special Figure A” and “Special Figure B” are jackpots (special jackpots) that are scheduled to change with certainty, and “Special Figure C” is a jackpot that is not scheduled to acquire certain changes. In this way, "Special Figure A" and "Special Figure B" in Special Figure 1 and Special Figure 2 in Special Figure, which are special jackpots where the second jackpot gaming state that is likely to shift to the second gaming state is started. A "to" Special Figure C "may be referred to as the second symbol, and the jackpot at which the first jackpot gaming state is not started (that is, it is difficult to shift to the second gaming state) is not scheduled to acquire the probability variation. “Special figure C” in special figure 1 is sometimes referred to as a first symbol.

  FIG. 146 (b-1) shows an example of the action of the attacker during the jackpot game of FIG. 1 and the game state to be transferred after the jackpot game. FIG. 146 (b-2) An example of the operation of the attacker during the jackpot game of 2 and the game state to be transferred after the jackpot game are shown.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure A is displayed in the special figure 1 and transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the 13th round, and in the 14th round, The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds, and in the 15th round, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds, and in the 16th round, The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds. That is, the special figure A in the special figure 1 is a pattern indicating that a large number of game balls are 16 round big hits that can enter the variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 16 rounds.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure B is displayed in the special figure 1 and is transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the 13th round, but in the 14th round The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened only for 0.1 second. In the 15th round, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is released for 29.0 seconds, and in the 16th round, the second variable winning opening 325a (second attacker) is released for 29.0 seconds. To do. That is, the special figure B in the special figure 1 is that many game balls can enter the variable winning opening in any of the rounds 1 to 13 and 15 to 16 but variable in the 14th round. It is a pattern which shows that it is a substantial 15 round big hit with almost no possibility of entering a winning opening.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figure C is displayed in the special figure 1 and transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the 13th round, but in the 14th round The second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for only 0.1 seconds, and in the 15th round, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for only 0.1 seconds. In the 16th round, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened only for 0.1 second. That is, in the special figure C in the special figure 1, from 1 round to 13 rounds, many game balls can enter the variable prize opening in any round, but from 14 rounds to 16 rounds, to the variable prize opening. It is a pattern which shows that it is a substantial 13 round big hit with almost no possibility of entering.

  In the jackpot game to which the special figures A to C are displayed in the special figure 2 and transferred, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds from the first round to the 13th round, and 14 rounds Then, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is released for 29.0 seconds, and in the 15th round, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is released for 29.0 seconds, and 16 rounds. Then, the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) is opened for 29.0 seconds. That is, the special drawings A to C in the special drawing 2 are symbols indicating that 16 game rounds can be made in any number of rounds from 1 round to 16 rounds in which a lot of game balls can enter the variable winning opening.

  In the present embodiment, in the jackpot game with any of the above-mentioned symbols, the game balls entered during the opening of the second variable prize opening 235a become 14 rounds or 16 rounds in the second variable prize prize opening 235a. When the V passing switch SW2 provided in the probability changing area is passed, the probability changing operation area is turned ON, and after the big hit game is finished, while the symbol variation display is performed 150 times, the special figure high probability normality which is an example of the second gaming state is displayed. The figure high probability state is maintained. On the other hand, if the game ball does not pass through the V passing switch SW2 in the big hit game, the probability variation operation region is not turned ON (the probability variation operation region remains OFF), and after the big hit game ends, 100 symbols. While the variable display is performed, the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state which is an example of the first gaming state is maintained.

  In the tenth embodiment, the third game condition is satisfied when the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW2 of the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) in the 14th or 16th round. Therefore, the big hit by special figure C of special figure 1 is not 0%, but the possibility is very low, and it can be said that it is a big hit that is not scheduled to be acquired. On the other hand, the big hit by special figures A and B of special figure 1 has a sufficient opening time of the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker), and the possibility of passing the game ball to the V passage switch SW2 It is high, and it can be said that it is a big hit scheduled to get a certain change.

  Also, the action of the attacker in the jackpot game to which the special figures A to C are displayed in the special figure 2 is the same as the action of the attacker in the special figure A in the special figure 1. Therefore, any of the jackpots based on the jackpot symbol (special charts A to C) of the special figure 2 is the second variable winning opening 235a (second

The attacker has a sufficient opening time, and there is a high possibility that the game ball will pass to the V-pass switch SW2, which can be said to be a big hit that is scheduled to acquire a certain change. Note that the operation of the attacker in the jackpot according to the special figure A to C in the special figure 2 may be different from the operation mode of the attacker in the big hit according to the special figure A in the special figure 1, for example, the special figure A in the special figure 2 The operation mode of some or all of the big hits by ~ C may be the same as the operation mode of the attacker by big hits by the special figure B in FIG.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the big hit gaming state in which the third gaming condition is difficult to be satisfied is changed to the first big hit like the big hit game by the 16 round big hit in which the special figure C in the special figure 1 is displayed and shifted. It may be called a game state, and the third game condition is established, such as a big hit game with 16 rounds big hit that is displayed and transferred as special figures A and B in special figure 1 and special figures A to C in special figure 2 The big hit gaming state in which the second gaming state is more likely to be started than the first big hit gaming state may be referred to as the second big hit gaming state.

  Further, in the jackpot game to which the special figure A is displayed in the special figure 1 and is transferred, the operation mode of the attacker is the same in the 14th round and the 16th round, but it may be different. It is good also as an operation mode shown in 146 (c). FIG. 146 (c) is a diagram showing an example of an operation mode of the attacker in the 14th round of the jackpot game to which the special figure A is displayed and shifted in the special figure 1. FIG.

  That is, in the 14th round, the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) is operated in such a manner that it is closed once after 0.1 seconds are released, and then is opened again for 29.0 seconds after 3 seconds have passed as an interval. Let

  FIG. 147 (a) is a diagram showing an example of the table set selection table in the case of big hit in Special Figure 1, and FIG. 147 (b) is another example of the table set selection table in the case of big hit in Special Figure 1. FIG.

  In the present embodiment, in the normal figure low probability state, the general drawing lottery is only hit with a probability of 1/100, so the electric chew is almost not opened, and the probability of winning the second special figure starting port 232 is low. The tables shown in FIG. 147 (a) and FIG. 147 (b) correspond to table set selection tables that are frequently used in the case of the normal figure low probability (special figure low probability normal figure low probability) state.

  The table set selection table shown in FIG. 147 (a) is configured so that the type of table set to be used differs depending on the type of the special figure displayed in a stopped state and whether or not the probability variation operation area is turned on. That is, when the big hit is made in the special figure A and the probability changing operation area is turned ON, the table set 1A is used in the gaming state (the probability changing state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. When the big hit is made in the special figure A and the probability variation operation area is OFF, the table set 1B is used in the gaming state (electric support state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. Further, when the big hit is made in the special figure B and the probability changing operation area is turned ON, the table set 2A is used in the gaming state (the probability changing state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. Further, when the big hit is made in the special figure B and the probability variation operation region is OFF, the table set 2B is used in the game state (electric support state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. Further, when the big hit is made in the special figure C and the probability changing operation region is turned ON, the table set 3A is used in the gaming state (the probability changing state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. Further, when the big hit in the special figure C and the probability variation operating region is OFF, the table set 3B is used in the game state (electric support state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted.

  The table set selection table shown in FIG. 147 (b) is different from the table set selection table shown in FIG. 147 (a) when the probability variation operating area is turned on in the big hit game.

Is configured so that the table set used in the probability change state where the jackpot game is finished and shifted depends on the type of the special figure that is stopped and displayed, but if the probability change operation area is OFF, The table set used in the electric support state that is transferred after the big hit game is finished is configured to be the same regardless of the type of special figure that is stopped. Specifically, when the big hit is made in the special figure A and the probability changing operation area is turned ON, the table set 1A is used in the gaming state (the probability changing state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. When the big hit is made in the special figure A and the probability variation operation area is OFF, the table set 1B is used in the gaming state (electric support state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. Further, when the big hit is made in the special figure B and the probability changing operation area is turned ON, the table set 2A is used in the gaming state (the probability changing state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. Further, when the big hit is made in the special figure B and the probability variation operation area is OFF, the table set 1B is used in the game state (electric support state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. Further, when the big hit is made in the special figure C and the probability changing operation region is turned ON, the table set 3A is used in the gaming state (the probability changing state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted. Further, when the big hit in the special figure C and the probability variation operating region is OFF, the table set 1B is used in the gaming state (electric support state) in which the big hit game is finished and shifted.

  FIG. 148 is a diagram illustrating a specific effect example in the big hit game of 16R big hit (substantial 13R big hit). The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  As described above, when “Special Figure C” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. A message indicating that the game is in the first round is displayed, and a display for instructing the player to make a right turn is performed. In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In this big hit game, since it is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), the display of the number of consecutive games is “first”.

  Thereafter, at the fourth round, the production contents as shown in FIG. 148 (b) are executed. That is, as shown in FIG. 148 (b), in the decorative symbol display device 208, in the 14th and 16th rounds, the second variable winning opening 235a is open for a long time and is in a state where it is easy to pass V. The promotion effect suggesting whether or not will arrive is performed, and as a result, the content of the effect that failed in the promotion effect is executed. That is, it is informed that the game is a big hit game in which the third game condition is difficult to be established. Such a failure effect is continued until the 13th round, as shown in FIG. 148 (c).

  After that, when the big hit game progresses and becomes the 14th round, the second variable prize opening 235a is opened and the V shutter 2352a is opened, both of which are open for a very short time. Therefore, it is extremely difficult to pass V. In the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 148 (d), the above-described failure effect continues even after the 14th round.

  FIG. 148 (e) shows a state in which the game ball has passed through the V pass switch SW2 (V pass) in the 14th round. Then, as shown in FIG. 148 (f), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed.

  FIG. 148 (g) shows the effect contents when the 14th round is completed. In the present embodiment, the number of game balls that have passed the winning count switch SW1, the V passing switch SW2,

And the number of game balls that have passed through the discharge ball detection switch SW3 are counted, and when the numbers are different at the end of the round, it is determined that a big prize opening error has occurred, and an error is notified. In the production example, since a big prize opening error has occurred in the 14th round, as shown in FIG. 148 (g), a “big prize opening error” is displayed superimposed on the “V” display. For example, in the 14th round, such an error occurs when the winning pass switch SW1 is not passed and the V passing switch SW2 is passed by an illegal act such as care. This “big prize opening error” is displayed continuously until the power is turned off, for example. It should be noted that the period during which the “big prize opening error” is displayed can be set as appropriate. For example, it may be terminated when the big hit game ends. In the present embodiment, the display of “V” and the display of “big prize opening error” are started at different timings, but the display may be started at the same timing. In this embodiment, the “big prize opening error” is displayed over the “V” display. However, the “V” display is carried out over the “large prize opening error” display. Also good. In this embodiment, the fact that a big prize opening error has occurred is notified by displaying the fact on the decorative symbol display device 208, but it is notified by outputting by voice or blinking the lamp. Also good.

  Thereafter, when the 16th round ends, a big hit end effect is performed in a manner as shown in FIG. 148 (h). In this production example, there was a V pass in the 14th round, but it occurred in a big hit game in which the third game condition was difficult to be satisfied (that is, an irregular V pass), so that the transition to a probable change state was made. “Yoshimune mode entry” is not displayed, but as shown in FIG. 148 (h), “search mode entry” is displayed (first effect) indicating that the mode is shifted to the electric support state. At the same time, the above-described “Large Winner Error” is continuously displayed. This “big prize opening error” display is superimposed on the “search mode entry” display. It should be noted that “search mode entry” may be displayed on top of the “big prize opening error” display.

  When the big hit game is completed as described above, the state is changed to a probability change state (special figure high probability normal figure high probability state), and as shown in FIG. 148 (i), the decorative symbol display device 208 is in a probability change state. Production of “Yoshimune mode” is performed. At this time, since there was no hold of the variable display of the special figure 2 and there were three hold of the variable display of the special figure 1, the hold (the first hold) of the special figure 1 is digested, and the first special figure display device The symbol variation display 212 is started, and the decoration symbol display device 208 also starts the variation display of the decoration symbol. Also at this time, the above-mentioned “Large Winner Error” is continuously displayed. The “big prize opening error” is displayed so as to overlap the “Yoshimune mode” effect.

  In this production example, if V does not pass in the 14th round, the failure production is continued until the big hit game is finished. It can be said that it is an example of the 1st production showing the shift to the electric support state.

  FIG. 149 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the tenth embodiment.

As described above, when “Special Figure A” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, the big hit effect is started as shown in FIG. In this effect example, the number of prize balls acquired by winning an attacker is displayed above the display of the number of consecutive resorts on the lower left of the decorative symbol display device 208. At the timing shown in FIG. 149 (a), the winning ball number is displayed as “00000” since there is no winning for the attacker yet. In the present embodiment, the number of winning balls acquired by winning the first variable winning opening 234a and the second variable winning opening 235a is 15. However, the number of winning balls other than 15 may be used. Further, the number of winning balls acquired by winning the first variable winning opening 234a may be the same as or different from the number of winning balls acquired by winning the second variable winning opening 235a. .

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 149 (b), in the first round, ten game balls are won in the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker), and the display of the number of prize balls is “00150”. It has become. In this production example, if 10 game balls are won by the attacker, the round end condition is satisfied and the attacker is displaced from the open state to the closed state, and the round ends. FIG. 149 (c). As shown in FIG. 149 (d), when one more game ball wins the first variable winning opening 234a in a state where the attacker has shifted from the open state to the closed state, Is displayed as “00165” and an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120. At this time, the display of the number of prize balls may be highlighted as shown in FIG. In addition, although an effect indicating that there has been an overwinning is realized by voice output, it may be effected by display on the decorative symbol display device 208, blinking of a lamp, or the like. In addition, the effect related to the over-winning may be executed together with the display of “V” described above. In the present embodiment, there is a case where it is possible to give the player a feeling of feeling by performing an effect indicating that there has been an overwinning. In the present embodiment, the round end condition is satisfied when there is a winning of 10 game balls to the attacker. However, the number of winning game balls to the attacker who satisfies the round end condition may be 9 or less. 11 or more.

  Further, another production example will be described. As described above, when “Special Figure A” is stopped on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. 149 (e). The big hit production is started.

  FIG. 149 (f) shows a situation when the second round is entered. As shown in FIG. 149 (g), when the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is displaced from the closed state to the open state in the second round, as shown in FIG. The second round is displayed and a round start sound is output from the speaker 120. In addition, although the effect which alert | reports the start of a round was implement | achieved by the audio | voice output, you may make it produce by the display in the decoration symbol display apparatus 208, blink of a lamp, etc. In addition, the effect related to the start of the round may be executed together with the display of “V” described above.

  Further, another example of the production will be described. For example, in the big hit game in which “Special Figure B” is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, when the 16th round is reached, the second variable prize opening 235a is displayed. In addition to being in the open state, the V shutter 2352a is in the open state so that the V passage is easy, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the 16th round as shown in FIG. 149 (i). At the same time, “V Aim” is displayed to promote the passage of V.

  If there is a passing of a game ball (V passing) to the V passing switch SW2 in the second variable prize opening 235a at the timing shown in FIG. 149 (j), as shown in FIG. The symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. In this effect example, V winning sound is output from the speaker 120 together with the display of “V”. In this embodiment, the V winning effect is executed in this way. The output timing of the V winning sound may be simultaneous with the display of “V”, the V winning sound may be output after the display of “V”, or after the V winning sound is output. “V” may be displayed. Alternatively, only the V winning sound may be output without displaying “V”.

  FIG. 150 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the present embodiment.

  Furthermore, another production example will be described. For example, in the first special figure display device 212, “

In the big hit game in which “Special Figure B” is stopped and displayed, at the 16th round, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened and the V shutter 2352a is opened so that V passage is easy. Thus, in the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 150 (a), a display indicating that it is the 16th round is performed, and a display of “V Aim” for promoting the passage of V is performed. .

  When there is a game ball passing (V passing) to the V passing switch SW2 in the second variable prize opening 235a at the timing shown in FIG. 150 (b), as shown in FIG. In the symbol display measure 208, a hold continuous tone is output from the speaker 120 together with a display of “VV” which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. The display of “VV” is executed when the symbol variation display of the reserved special figure 1 is pre-read and a symbol variation display that is a big hit is included. In this embodiment, the pre-reading notice effect is configured as described above. It should be noted that, even if a symbol variation display that is a big hit is included as a result of the prefetching, “VV” may be displayed without displaying “VV”. Further, even when the symbol variation display that is a big hit is not included, “VV” may be displayed as a false prefetch notice. The output timing of the hold continuous tone may be simultaneous with the display of “VV”, the hold continuous tone may be output after the display of “VV”, or after the hold continuous tone is output. “V” may be displayed. Alternatively, only the hold continuous tone may be output without displaying “VV”. Further, only the pre-reading of the symbol fluctuation display of the special figure 2 that is put on hold may be performed and the pre-reading regarding the symbol fluctuation display of the special figure 1 may not be performed. You may make it read ahead about.

  Further, another example of the effect will be described. For example, when the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. 150 (d), the big hit effect is started. The In this effect example, the number of prize balls acquired by winning an attacker is displayed above the display of the number of consecutive resorts on the lower left of the decorative symbol display device 208. At the timing shown in FIG. 150 (d), the winning ball number is displayed as “00000” since there is no winning for the attacker yet. In the present embodiment, the number of winning balls acquired by winning the first variable winning opening 234a and the second variable winning opening 235a is 15. However, the number of winning balls other than 15 may be used.

  FIG. 150 (e) shows the contents of effects in the seventh round. At the timing shown in FIG. 150 (e), the number of award balls is displayed as “00990”. In this state, as shown in FIG. 150 (f), when one game ball is won in the first variable winning opening 234a, the display of the number of winning balls is updated to “01005” as shown in FIG. 150 (g). In addition to the display, “GET1000pt” indicating that 1000 prize balls have been acquired is displayed below the center of the decorative symbol display device 208. At this time, the winning sound 1000 acquired sound is output from the speaker 120. In addition, although the effect that 1000 prize balls were acquired is realized by the display on the decorative symbol display device 208 and the sound output from the speaker 120, only one of them may be implemented. Further, the output timing of the winning ball 1000 acquisition sound may be simultaneously with the display of “GET1000pt”, the winning ball 1000 acquisition sound may be output after the display of “GET1000pt”, or the winning ball 1000 acquisition “GET1000pt” may be displayed after the sound is output. In addition, the effect that 1000 prize balls have been acquired may be executed together with the display of “V” described above. Moreover, in this production example, when 1000 prize balls were acquired, notification to that effect was made. However, the number of winning balls to be notified is not limited to this. For example, 500, 1500, 2000, 10,000 You may make it alert | report when a prize ball is acquired. Further, the number of notifications is not limited to one, but may be performed a plurality of times.

FIG. 150 (h) to FIG. 150 (k) illustrate an example of an effect example when the first variable winning opening 234b and the second variable winning opening 235b described above with reference to FIG. 128 (e) are applied. FIG.

  In the example shown in FIG. 150 (h), the first passing detection switch SW5 of the first variable winning opening 234b functions as a winning count switch, the second passing detection switch SW6 functions as a round continuation switch, and the second The third passing detection switch SW7 of the variable winning opening 235b functions as a winning count switch, and the fourth passing detection switch SW8 functions as a round continuation switch. In this production example, the player can move to the next round on condition that the game ball passes to the round continuation switch while the attacker opens, and if there is no game ball passing to the round continuation switch, the round The big hit game is configured to end. In this production example, the first variable winning opening 234b and the second variable winning opening 235b are each provided with a round continuation switch. However, only one of them may be provided. In this case, for example, in a round in which an attacker that is not provided with a round continuation switch is opened, it is necessary to make a transition to the next round, and in a round in which an attacker that is provided with a round continuation switch is opened. The game may be configured to shift to the next round on condition that the game ball passes to the round continuation switch. Further, in such a configuration, for example, an attacker who is not provided with a round continuation switch in the first round may be opened, and the transition to the second round may be performed without fail.

  With the pachinko machine configured as described above, when the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. 150 (i), the big hit effect is started. The variable winning opening 234b is opened and the first round starts. When the game ball passes through the second passing detection switch SW6 that functions as a round continuation switch at the timing of FIG. 150 (j) and wins the first variable winning opening 234b, as shown in FIG. 150 (k). In addition, “continuation” indicating that the condition for shifting to the next round is satisfied is displayed at the lower center of the decorative symbol display device 208, and a continuation sound is output from the speaker 120. In addition, although the effect of continuing the round indicating that the condition for shifting to the next round is satisfied is realized by the display on the decorative symbol display device 208 and the sound output from the speaker 120, even if only one of them is performed Good. Further, the output timing of the continuous sound may be simultaneously with the display of “continuation”, the continuous sound may be output after the display of “continuation”, or “continuation” after the continuous sound is output. May be displayed. In addition, the effect of continuing the round may be executed together with the display of “V” described above.

  In the present embodiment, the above-mentioned “big prize opening error” display, an effect indicating that there has been an overwinning, an effect related to the start of a round, a V winning effect, a pre-reading notice effect, an effect indicating that 1000 prize balls have been acquired, and Two or more effects among the effects of continuing the round may be performed simultaneously.

  Next, various configurations applicable to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. Here, FIG. 151 (a) is a front view for explaining an example of the start winning device, FIG. 151 (b) is a perspective view for explaining another example of the start winning device, and FIG. 151 (c). These are front views explaining an example of a big hit generating device, and FIG. 151 (d) is a diagram explaining an example of a lamp module for performing various displays controlled by the main control unit.

  In the embodiment described above, instead of the first special figure starting port 230 and the second special figure starting port 232, for example, a start winning device 2300 shown in FIG. 151 (a) can be applied.

The start winning device 2300 includes a ball entrance 2301 into which a game ball can enter at the upper end, a first guide passage 2303 and a second guide passage 2304 through which game balls entered from the ball entrance 2301 flow down, The game balls entered from the ball outlet 2301 are placed in the first guide passage 2303 and the second guide passage 23.
Rotating body 2302 that distributes to any one of 04.

  The rotating body 2302 has three blades 2302a, 2302b, 2302c standing rearward on the back surface of the disk-shaped main body, and these three blades 2302a, 2302b, 2302c are centered on the main body at equal intervals. Are arranged radially toward the outer periphery. When the rotating body 2302 rotates in the clockwise direction (CW direction), the blade 2302a abuts against the inner wall of the second guide passage 2304 and restricts the rotation of the rotating body 2302 beyond a certain level. At this time, the first ball receiving portion 2305a formed by the blades 2302b and 2302c is directed upward to be able to receive the game ball. Further, the blade 2302c abuts against the inner wall of the first guide passage 2303 when the rotating body 2302 rotates counterclockwise (CCW direction), and restricts the rotation of the rotating body 2302 beyond a certain level. At this time, the second ball receiving portion 2305b formed by the blades 2302a and 2302b is directed upward to be able to receive the game ball.

  The first guide passage 2303 communicates with a first special figure starting port (not shown), and the game balls guided by the first guide passage 2303 win a prize at the first special figure starting port. Further, the second guide passage 2304 communicates with a second special figure start port (not shown), and the game ball guided by the second guide passage 2304 wins the second special figure start port.

  Since the start winning device 2300 is configured as described above, for example, as shown in FIG. 151 (a), the blade 2302a abuts against the inner wall of the second guide passage 2304 and the first ball receiving portion 2305a. When the game ball enters from the entrance port 2301 while the player faces upward, the game ball is received by the first ball receiving portion 2305a. Then, the rotating body 2302 rotates counterclockwise due to the weight of the game ball. The rotating body 2302 stops rotating when the blade 2302c comes into contact with the inner wall of the first guide passage 2303. The first ball receiving portion 2305a faces the first guide passage 2303, and the game ball received by the first ball receiving portion 2305a flows down the first guide passage 2303 and wins the first special figure starting port. To do.

  In this state, since the second ball receiving portion 2305b faces upward, at this time, when a game ball enters from the entrance port 2301, the game ball is received by the second ball receiving portion 2305b. Then, the rotating body 2302 rotates clockwise by the weight of the game ball. The rotating body 2302 stops rotating when the blade 2302a abuts against the inner wall of the second guide passage 2304. The second ball receiving portion 2305b faces the second guide passage 2304, and the game ball received by the second ball receiving portion 2305b flows down the second guide passage 2304 and wins the second special figure starting port. To do.

  In this way, the start winning device 2300 can alternately win the first special figure starting port and the second special figure starting port.

  Further, for example, a start winning device 2300A shown in FIG. 151 (b) can be applied.

  The start winning device 2300A includes a ball entrance 2301A, a first guide passage 2303A, a second guide passage 2304A, and a rotating body 2302A. Since the entrance 2301A, the first guide passage 2303A, and the second guide passage 2304A are the same as the start winning device 2300 shown in FIG. 151 (a), a specific configuration of the rotating body 2302A will be described here. Description of the other is omitted.

  The rotating body 2302A is provided with three blades (not shown) like the rotating body 2302 of the start winning device 2300, but the rear end of the rotating shaft is connected to the motor M1. That is, the rotating body 2302A can be rotated counterclockwise and clockwise by driving the motor M1. For example, the motor M1 rotates periodically or randomly.

Since the position of the rolling body 2302A can be converted, the game ball is distributed to one of the first special figure start port and the second special view start port at the timing when the game ball enters the entrance port 2301. Can do.

  In the embodiment described above, for example, a big hit generator 2500 as shown in FIG. 151 (c) can be provided. The jackpot generating device 2500 is a device for starting a jackpot game by passing after stopping display (definite stop) with a jackpot symbol as a result of the symbol variation display in the special figure 1 or the special figure 2.

  The big hit generating device 2500 has an entrance 2501 through which a game ball can enter at the upper end, a first guide passage 2503 and a second guide passage 2504 through which the game ball entered from the entrance 2501 flows down, A distribution member 2502 is provided that distributes the game balls that have entered from the ball opening 2501 to one of the first guide passage 2503 and the second guide passage 2504.

  The distribution member 2502 is formed in a plate shape, and is configured to be rotatable with one end connected to a rotation shaft. For example, the rotation shaft is connected to a motor. As a result, the distribution member 2502 periodically or randomly connects the entrance port 2501 and the first guide passage 2503, and connects the entrance port 2501 and the second guide passage 2504. It is possible to change to

  The first guide passage 2503 is provided with a first big hit generation switch SW11 for generating a big hit, so that a game ball flowing down the first guide passage 2503 can be detected. The game ball that has passed through the first big hit generation switch SW11 is, for example, discharged from the lower end and returned to the game area 124 of the game board 200.

  The second guide passage 2504 is provided with a second big hit generation switch SW12 for generating a big hit, so that a game ball flowing down the second guide passage 2504 can be detected. The game ball that has passed through the second big hit generation switch SW12 is, for example, discharged from the lower end and returned to the game area 124 of the game board 200.

  In the above-described embodiment, by using the jackpot generating device 2500, for example, the jackpot game can be started and the number of rounds that can be executed in the jackpot game can be determined. For example, when a game ball passes through the first jackpot generating switch SW11, a 10-round jackpot game is started, whereas when a game ball passes through the second jackpot generating switch SW12, a 4-round jackpot game is started. Either a game or a 16-round jackpot game is drawn, and a jackpot game of the number of rounds won is started.

  In the above-described embodiment, for example, the first special figure display device, the second special figure display device, the normal symbol display device, the normal symbol hold lamp, the first special figure hold lamp, the second special figure hold lamp, the number of rounds. A lamp module 2000 in which a display lamp, a status display lamp, etc. are arranged on one module can be provided, for example, outside the game area 124 of the game board 200.

  More specifically, the lamp module 2000 includes a first special figure display lamp 2212, a second special figure display lamp 2214, a round number display lamp 2328, a normal symbol display lamp 2210, a normal symbol hold lamp 2216, A first special figure holding lamp 2218 and a second special figure holding lamp 2220 are provided.

  The first special figure display lamp 2212 is composed of eight LEDs, and the stop symbol of the special figure 1 can be specified by a combination of lighting and extinguishing of these LEDs.

  The 2nd special figure display lamp 2214 is comprised by eight LED, The stop symbol of special figure 2 can be pinpointed by the combination of lighting and extinction of these LED.

  The second special figure holding lamp 2220 is composed of four LEDs, and the number of fluctuation displays held in the special figure 2 can be expressed by the number of lighting LEDs.

  FIG. 152 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the present embodiment.

  FIG. 152 (a) shows an example of effects that can be realized in the pachinko machine 100 using the start winning device 2300 shown in FIG. 151 (a) or the starting winning device 2300A shown in FIG. 151 (b), for example. ing. In this production example, the special symbol variation display is started in the winning order regardless of whether the first special figure starting port or the second special figure starting port is won, not the special figure 2 priority changing machine. This is applied to a piece-holding winning order variation (8-holding order) machine.

  As shown in FIG. 152 (a), the first special symbol display device 212 starts the variable symbol display of the special symbol 1, and the decorative symbol display device 208 correspondingly displays the variable symbol variation. It has been broken. In FIG. 152 (a), since the number of holdings of the variable display in FIG. 1 is one, one holding lamp in the first special figure holding lamp 218 is lit, and the number of holdings of the variable display in FIG. Therefore, the two holding lamps in the second special figure holding lamp 220 are lit.

  On the other hand, in this effect example, the suspended display of the symbol variation on the decorative symbol display device 208 is performed without distinguishing between the special diagram 1 and the special diagram 2. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 includes the first special figure hold display h01, the second special figure hold display h02, the third special figure hold display h03, the fourth special figure hold display h04, and the fifth special figure hold display h04. A figure hold display h05, a sixth special figure hold display h06, a seventh special figure hold display h07, and an eighth special figure hold display h08 are displayed. Since the fluctuation display of one special figure 1 and the fluctuation display of two special figures 2 are held, the first special figure holding display h01 to the third special figure holding display h03 are respectively in the default display mode. It is displayed. In either case, it is displayed in a form in which it is difficult to specify whether it is the hold display of FIG. 1 or the hold display of FIG. On the other hand, the fourth special figure hold display h04 to the eighth special figure hold display h08 are all displayed blank. In the effect example shown in FIG. 152 (a), a variation icon h00 is displayed side by side with the first special figure hold display h01. The variation icon has, for example, a display form related to the special figure hold display, and is displayed in the same display form as the hold display. For example, the change icon can execute a notice about the display result of the change display (the change notice) according to the display mode. The variation icon is deleted when the variation display ends. Note that the erasure timing of the variation icon is not limited to this, and for example, the variation icon may be erased during the variation display.

  FIG. 152 (b) performs the same effect display as FIG. 152 (a), but is displayed in a manner in which it is possible to specify whether the display is the hold display of FIG. 1 or the hold display of FIG. ing. Specifically, the second special figure hold display h02 indicates the hold display of the special figure 1, and the first special figure hold display h01 and the third special figure hold display h03 are the hold of the special figure 2. The display is shown. Further, the fluctuation icon h00 indicates that the fluctuation display of FIG.

  152 (a) and 152 (b), for example, in the decorative symbol variation display executed together with the symbol variation display of Special Fig. 1, "decoration 7"-"decoration 7"-" When a combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 7” is displayed, it is possible to notify that the third game condition is likely to be established as a special jackpot, while the jackpots of special figure 2 are all the third game condition. If it is a special big hit that is likely to be established, and it is a big hit in the symbol variation display of Special Figure 2, it is always displayed with a combination of the decorative symbols of “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7”. In the case of (display), the reach state may be formed by a decorative symbol other than “decoration 7” to enhance the interest of the game. In this case, for example, three decorative symbols other than “decoration 7” are arranged and temporarily stopped and then displayed again, and then stopped by a combination of “decoration 7”, “decoration 7” and “decoration 7”. It is conceivable to produce effects such as displaying.

  Further, the same effect may be performed by the decorative symbol variation display executed together with the symbol variation display of the special symbol 1 and the decorative symbol variation display performed together with the symbol variation display of the special symbol 2. At this time, for example, the probability of reaching the “decoration 7” may be different between the symbol variation display of FIG. 1 and the symbol variation display of FIG. Also, the same effect is produced by the decorative symbol variation display executed together with the symbol variation display of the special symbol 1 and the decorative symbol variation display performed together with the symbol variation display of the special symbol 2, but the symbol variation of the special symbol 1 is performed. The time may be set longer than the symbol variation time of the special figure 2 by the time for performing the re-variation display.

  Further, for example, the contents of the performance in the big hit game may be different depending on whether the big hit is in the special figure 1 or the big hit in the special figure 2. Further, for example, the probability of notifying that the third game condition is likely to be established at the start of the big hit may be different depending on whether the big hit in FIG. 1 or the special hit in FIG. Specifically, when a big hit is made in FIG. 2, a notification that the third game condition is likely to be established is notified with a probability of 100% at least at the start of the big hit game. When a big hit is made, the notification may be made only with a probability of 90% at the start of the big hit game, which is a special big hit.

  FIG. 152 (c) shows an example of effects that can be realized in the pachinko machine 100 including the jackpot generator 2500 shown in FIG. 151 (c), for example. In this production example, any of the special figure 2 priority changing machine and the 8-sequential ordering machine is applicable.

  FIG. 152 (c) corresponds to the symbols that are stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212 in the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 while the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212. The fourth symbol of the mode is stopped and displayed. In accordance with this, on the decorative symbol display device 208, the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” is stopped (determined).

  In the effect example shown in FIG. 152 (c), even if the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, the big hit game is not started, and after the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed, The big hit game is started by the passing of the game ball to the first big hit generation switch SW11 or the second big hit generation switch SW12, and any of the first big hit generation switch SW11 and the second big hit generation switch SW12 The number of rounds executed in the jackpot game is determined by the passing of the game ball.

  For this reason, in the effect example shown in FIG. 152 (c), a display indicating that the game ball is launched aiming at the big hit generating device 2500 is performed at the timing when the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212.

  FIG. 152 (d) displays the same effect as in FIG. 152 (c), but the game ball has passed to the first jackpot generating switch SW11 or the second jackpot generating switch SW12. It is shown that the display showing that there is a high possibility that the transferred jackpot game is a jackpot game in which the third game condition is likely to be established is executed on the decorative symbol display device 208.

  In the example of production shown in FIGS. 152 (c) and 152 (d), the third game is performed when the game ball passes to the first jackpot generating switch SW11 or the second jackpot generating switch SW12. You may make it perform the production | presentation which suggests that the big hit game in which conditions are easy to be satisfied is started.

  Further, in the pachinko machine 100 that can start the small hit game, for example, when the big hit symbol and the small hit symbol are stopped and displayed in the special figure 1 (or special figure 2), before the symbol variation display is finished. Alternatively, an effect as shown in FIG. 152 (c) or 152 (d) may be performed. Thereby, for example, by passing the game ball to the first jackpot generating switch SW11 or the second jackpot generating switch SW12, the player is expected to start the jackpot game or the small jackpot game. You may be able to have it. In this case, the small hit game can be started without passing the game ball to the first big hit generation switch SW11 or the second big hit generation switch SW12 after the small hit symbol is stopped and displayed.

  FIG. 152 (e) shows an example of effects that can be realized in the pachinko machine 100 that can start the above-described small hit game, for example. In this embodiment, for example, when the small winning symbol is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212 or the second special graphic display device 214, the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is displayed. A small hit game is executed in which an operation of opening for 0.1 second is performed a plurality of times (for example, three times). Note that the number of times the attacker opens and closes is not limited to 3, and may be 1 or 2 or 4 or more times. Further, the opening time of the attacker at the small hit is not limited to 0.1 seconds, and may be set to a time sufficient for allowing one or more game balls to win a prize (for example, 1.0 second). . Also, in the big hit game, after performing the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) in the first round, for example, several times (for example, three times) to open for 0.1 seconds, An operation for releasing 29.0 seconds is performed. This operation may be executed only in some jackpot games.

  In the effect example shown in FIG. 152 (e), the symbols are stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212, and are stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212 in the special symbol first and fourth symbols t1. The fourth symbol of the aspect corresponding to the symbol is stopped and displayed. In accordance with this, on the decorative symbol display device 208, the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” is stopped (determined).

  In the effect example shown in FIG. 152 (e), the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4” is merely stopped (determined) on the decorative symbol display device 208. It is difficult for the player to recognize whether it is a big hit or a small hit.

  Therefore, in the production example shown in FIG. 152 (e), “the first variable prize opening 234a (first attacker) that performs an opening / closing operation in the transition to the big hit game or the small hit game is focused on.

It is shown that the display of “attacker is long open and big hit” is being performed on the decorative symbol display device 208.

  Thereby, the player pays attention to the opening / closing operation of the first variable prize opening 234a (first attacker), for example, after confirming the opening for a long time after opening and closing for a short time three times, In some cases, it can be recognized that the game has started.

  FIG. 152 (f) performs the same effect display as FIG. 152 (e). However, in the case of shifting to the big hit game, there is a possibility that the third game condition is likely to be a big hit game. Is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208.

  Next, an example of notification of information relating to a game history implemented in the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 152 (g) shows a standby state in which the fluctuation display of Special Figure 1 and Special Figure 2 is not suspended. At this time, as shown in FIG. 152 (h), when a predetermined operation is performed, a game history as shown in FIG. 152 (i) is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 152 (h), an operation for displaying the game history is performed by rotating the dial of the setting switch 161 to the position for displaying the management information, and then pressing the chance button 136. This is done by pressing. The operation method is not limited to this. For example, in the pachinko machine 100 that does not include the setting switch 161, the operation method may be performed by a predetermined number of operations of the chance button 136. In this case, the chance button 136 may be operated once or plural times.

  When the operation for displaying the game history is performed as described above, as shown in FIG. 152 (i), for example, the number of times the third game condition is established or not established in the jackpot game is the type of jackpot game. Each is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208. Information regarding other game histories may be displayed.

  In the embodiment described so far, the general start port 228 is arranged on the right side of the game area 124, and in the normal game state where the probability change state and the electric support state are not present, the French start port 228 is almost played. Since the ball does not pass through, it is unlikely that a general-purpose variable game will be executed. May be executed. In this case, for example, it is possible to set a plurality of types of hitting symbols of the usual drawing so that the time during which the second special figure starting port 232 is in the open state varies depending on the type of the winning symbol. Further, for example, when the symbol variation of the special symbol 2 is performed in the normal gaming state, for example, a special effect such as displaying a character on the decorative symbol display device 208 may be performed.

  Next, an example of a series of effects executed in the pachinko machine of the present embodiment will be described. The production example described below is executed in a period (for example, a period indicated by H in FIG. 131) from when the special figure starts to be stopped until the special figure is stopped or displayed, or until the big hit game ends. It is a possible production. In addition, the effect example demonstrated below is an effect which may be performed irrespective of whether the 3rd game condition was satisfied.

  FIG. 153 is a diagram illustrating an example of a series of effects. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 153 (l), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs an effect display that the princess appears when the eyelid opens and the state shifts to an advantageous situation. In this case, there is a case where a little princess appears instead of the princess and a transition is made to an advantageous situation. Display may be performed.

  Needless to say, the series of effects described above are merely examples, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

  Next, a specific effect example that can be executed in the pachinko machine of the present embodiment will be described.

FIG. 154 is a diagram illustrating a specific effect example in the symbol variation that is a big hit. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  Note that, in the effect example described with reference to FIG. 154, the sub effect display device 208 </ b> A is disposed adjacent to the right side of the decorative symbol display device 208. The sub-effect display device 208A can employ, for example, various display means having a size smaller than that of the decorative symbol display device 208. In FIG. 154, for example, an LCD is used. The sub effect display device 208A is connected to an actuator such as a motor via a link member, for example, and is driven by the second sub control unit 500 to have a first position that does not overlap the decorative symbol display device 208, It is configured to be able to be displaced to a second position that overlaps the decorative symbol display device 208. In this case, a part of the sub effect display device 208 </ b> A may overlap the decorative design display device 208, or all of the sub effect display device 208 </ b> A may overlap the decorative design display device 208. Good.

  In FIG. 154 (a), after the symbol variation display is started on the first special symbol display device 212, the decorative symbol display device 208 performs a display that develops to super reach.

  Here, since the number of hold of the variable display of the special figure 1 is 3, the three lamps in the first special figure hold lamp 218 are lit. Corresponding to this, the first special figure 1 hold display h11, the second special figure 1 hold display h12, and the third special figure 1 hold display h13 are all displayed in the decorative symbol display device 208 as a default display mode. The fourth special figure 1 hold display h14 is displayed as blank. On the other hand, since there is no hold of the variable display of the special figure 2, none of the second special figure hold lamps 220 is lit.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208, the decorative symbols displayed in the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display area 208c are displayed small in the upper left corner. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 perform the variable display in the manner as described above corresponding to the symbol variable display of the first special symbol display device 212.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 154 (b), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the pattern of the chance button 136 that prompts the user to press the chance button 136 and the characters “press”. The sub-effect display device 208A displays the characters “Yoshimune”. According to this effect, when the chance button 136 is pressed, the player may be given a sense of expectation that a jackpot confirmation display may be performed.

  When the chance button 136 is pressed at the timing shown in FIG. 154 (c), as shown in FIG. 154 (d), the sub effect display device 208A is displaced from the first position to the second position. In the sub-effect display device 208A, a display for changing the color of the background on which the character display of “Yoshimune” is performed is performed.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 154 (e), after the decorative symbol “decoration 4” is stopped and displayed in the middle symbol display area 208b, a combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 4” — “decoration 4” — “decoration 4” To start swinging. At this time, the sub effect display device 208A is displaced from the second position to the first position.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 154 (f), the decorative symbol display device 208 is expected to see whether or not the display is changed to a combination of decorative symbols promised to be a 16R special jackpot by performing re-variable display. Promotional performance is performed. Specifically, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display area that are fluctuating are changed.

Each decorative symbol displayed in the area 208c is displayed again in the upper left corner, indicating “promotion challenge” that the promotion effect is to be performed, the symbol of the chance button 136 that prompts the user to press the chance button 136, and “press”. Character display is performed.

  When the chance button 136 is pressed at the timing shown in FIG. 154 (g), the sub effect display device 208A is displaced from the first position to the second position as shown in FIG. 154 (h). In the sub-effect display device 208A, a display for changing the color of the background on which the character display of “Yoshimune” is performed is performed. Thereby, it can be informed that it will be confirmed that the display will be changed to the combination of decorative symbols promised to be a 16R special jackpot by performing re-variable display.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 154 (i), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the decorative symbol that has fluctuated is changed to a combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 7” — “decoration 7” — “decoration 7”. The At this time, the sub effect display device 208A is displaced from the second position to the first position.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 154 (j), “Special Figure A”, which is the 16R special big hit symbol, is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, and the first figure 4 includes the first symbol t1. The black circle symbol corresponding to “Special Figure A” that is stopped and displayed on the special figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed. Correspondingly, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 7”-“decoration 7”-“decoration 7” is stopped and displayed (determined display), and the variable game of the special symbol is ended.

  After that, the big hit game is started, and in the decorative symbol display device 208, the big hit start effect as shown in FIG. 154 (k) is executed. At this time, a display for instructing right-handed is also performed.

  Thereafter, when the big hit start effect ends and the first round is entered, as shown in FIG. 154 (l), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that the first round of the big hit game. In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. Since the big hit game this time is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), a display to that effect is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. "First time" is displayed. Thereafter, the jackpot game proceeds in the same manner as in the embodiments described so far.

  FIG. 155 is a diagram illustrating another example of a specific effect example in the symbol variation that is a big hit. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. Note that the effects shown in FIGS. 155 (a) to 155 (g) are the same as those shown in FIGS. 154 (a) to 154 (g) and described above, and a description thereof will be omitted.

  In FIG. 155 (h), unlike FIG. 154 (h), the sub effect display device 208A does not move in the first position even though the chance button 136 is pressed. Thereby, it is notified that the display is not changed to the combination of the decorative symbols promised to be the 16R special jackpot by performing the re-variable display.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 155 (i), the decorative symbol display device 208 continuously performs fluctuation fluctuations with the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4”.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 155 (j), the special special symbol winning symbol 16R is stopped and displayed on the first special graphic display device 212, and the special graphic 1 fourth graphic t1 includes the first The black circle symbol corresponding to “Special Figure A” that is stopped and displayed on the special figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed. In accordance with this, the decoration symbol display device 208 displays “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4”.

The combination of decorative symbols is stopped (determined display), and the special-game variable game ends. In this production example, the jackpot game to be started is a 16R special jackpot that easily satisfies the third game condition, but it is difficult for the player to recognize whether the jackpot game to be started is a 16R special jackpot. It has become.

  Thereafter, the effects shown in FIGS. 155 (k) to 155 (l) are performed. These effects are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 154 (k) to 155 (l).

  FIG. 156 is a diagram illustrating a specific effect example in the big hit game. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  As described above, when "Special Figure A" is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. A start effect is executed. Note that the jackpot game started this time is a jackpot game started after the stop display (determined display) with the combination of the decoration pattern of “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4”. However, it is difficult to recognize whether or not it is a 16R special big hit.

  Thereafter, when the big hit start effect is finished and the first round is started, as shown in FIG. 156 (b), the decorative symbol display device 208 executes the big hit effect and displays that it is the first round of the big hit game. Is done. Further, the sub effect display device 208A is arranged at the first position, and the characters “Yoshimune” are displayed.

  FIG. 156 (c) shows the effect contents in the fourth round. As shown in FIG. 156 (c), in the 14th round, there is a promotion effect that suggests whether or not there is a great chance that the second variable prize opening 235a will be open for a long time and easy to pass V. Is called. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 156 (c), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a letter “press” together with a picture of the chance button 136 that prompts the user to press the chance button 136, and accepts the press of the chance button. A remaining time display bar indicating the remaining time of the period is also displayed. The sub-effect display device 208A displays the characters “Yoshimune”. According to this effect, when the chance button 136 is pressed, the player feels that the current jackpot game may be notified that the third game condition is likely to be a 16R special jackpot. May be able to have.

  When the chance button 136 is pressed at the timing shown in FIG. 156 (d), as shown in FIG. 156 (e), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the contents of the effect that has been successfully promoted are executed. The effect display device 208A is displaced from the first position to the second position. In the sub-effect display device 208A, a display for changing the color of the background on which the character display of “Yoshimune” is performed is performed. As a result, it is notified that the current big hit game is a 16R special big hit that is likely to satisfy the third game condition.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 156 (f), the sub effect display device 208A is displaced from the second position to the first position. Thereafter, the jackpot game proceeds in the same manner as in the embodiments described so far.

  Further, another example of production will be described. When “Special Figure C” is stopped and displayed in the first special figure display device 212 and the big hit game is started, as shown in FIG. 156 (g), the decorative symbol display apparatus is displayed. At 208, a big hit start effect is executed. Note that the jackpot game started this time is a jackpot game started after the stop display (determined display) with the combination of the decoration pattern of “decoration 4”-“decoration 4”-“decoration 4”. Whether or not it is a 16R special jackpot

It has become difficult to recognize. The jackpot game started this time is a jackpot game started by stopping and displaying “Special Figure C”, which is a 16R (substantially 13R) jackpot symbol in which the third game condition is difficult to be established.

  Thereafter, the effects shown in FIGS. 156 (h) to 156 (j) are performed. These effects are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 156 (b) to 156 (d).

  In FIGS. 156 (k) to 156 (l), different from FIGS. 156 (e) to 156 (f), the decorative design display device 208 executes the content of the effect that has failed in the promotion effect, and the sub-effect display device. 208A does not move in the first position. As a result, it is notified that the current big hit game is a 16R big hit that is unlikely to satisfy the third game condition. In this production example, in the subsequent jackpot game, for example, the above-mentioned revival presentation is performed. If it is a 16R special jackpot, the revival stage is successfully produced. You may make it perform further the production which fails.

  In this production example, after that, when the big hit game progresses and becomes the 14th round, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened and the V shutter 2352a is opened. In this open state, it is very difficult to pass V. In the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 156 (m), the failure effect is continuously performed even after the 14th round.

  FIG. 156 (n) shows a state in which the game ball has passed the V pass switch SW2 (V pass) in the 14th round. Then, as shown in FIG. 156 (o), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. At this time, the display of “V” is superimposed on the display of the failure effect.

  Further, another example of the production will be described. When the big hit game progresses and becomes the 14th round, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened and the V shutter 2352a is opened. Since it is in an open state for only a short time, it is very difficult to pass V. In the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 156 (p), the failure effect is continuously performed even after the 14th round.

  FIG. 156 (q) shows a state in which the game ball has passed the V pass switch SW2 (V pass) in the 14th round. In this production example, at this time, as shown in FIG. 156 (r), the decorative symbol display device 208 does not display “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed, and only the failure production continues. Has been done. That is, in this production example, in the big hit game in which the third game condition is difficult to be established, even if there is a V pass, the player recognizes that it will shift to a probable change state after the big hit game ends. It can be difficult.

  Next, the visual recognition state (degree of visibility) in the decorative symbol display device 208 will be described. FIG. 157 is a diagram for explaining a visual recognition state on the decorative symbol display device 208. Here, the “object” in the figure means a tangible or intangible object that can change the visual recognition state (degree of visibility) of the decorative symbol display device 208, for example, an image (for example, a hold icon, Fluctuating icons, texture images that constitute reserved animation, various images used for production, images used for notice, character images), movable bodies (eg, production movable bodies, shielding devices), glass or resin The transparent plate member or the like is included at least.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 1A and 1A, at least one of the display areas of the decorative symbol display device 208 is covered by covering a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 with the first object ob1.

The display area covered with the first object ob1 is not visible (or difficult to see) from the front. Further, in this example, by covering a part of the display area of the decorative design display device 208 and a part of the first object ob1 with the second object ob2, the display area of the decorative design display device 208 is The display area covered only by the second object ob2 is also invisible (or difficult to see) from the front, and the portion of the first object ob1 covered by the second object ob2 is also from the front. Visible (or difficult to see).

  That is, in this example, a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 is obscured by the first object ob1 and the second object ob2, and a part of the first object ob1 is also covered by the second object ob2. Covered. Although not shown, after the display is performed so that the first object ob1 and the second object ob2 do not overlap with each other in the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208, they are shown in FIGS. Thus, a part of the first object ob1 is obscured by the second object ob2, and all the first objects ob1 are covered by the second object ob2, as shown in FIGS. The cover-up display may be executed continuously.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 is covered with the first object ob1, and the entire first object ob1 is covered with the second object ob2. As a result, among the display areas of the decorative symbol display device 208, at least the display area covered by the second object ob2 is made invisible (or difficult to view) from the front. In addition, the example shown in FIGS. 6A and 6C is the same as that shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B in that the display area covered by the second object ob2 is invisible (or difficult to view) from the front. ), But the range that is not visible (or difficult to view) is expanded by the second object ob2 as compared with the example shown in FIGS. In this way, the outside of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 may be invisible (or difficult to see). In other words, in the example shown in FIGS. 3A and 3C, the second object ob2 has a part of a side of the decorative symbol display device 208 invisible (or difficult to see). it can.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 2B and 2B, the positional relationship between the first object ob1 and the second object ob2 shown in FIGS. In this example, by covering a part of the display area of the decorative design display device 208 with the second object ob2, the display area covered with at least the second object ob2 in the display area of the decorative design display device 208. However, it cannot be visually recognized from the front (or difficult to see). Further, in this example, by covering a part of the display area of the decorative design display device 208 and a part of the second object ob2 with the first object ob1, the display area of the decorative design display device 208 is The display area covered only by the first object ob1 is also invisible (or difficult to see) from the front, and the portion of the second object ob2 covered by the first object ob1 is also from the front. Visible (or difficult to see).

  That is, in this example, a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 is obscured by the first object ob1 and the second object ob2, and a part of the second object ob2 is also covered by the first object ob1. Covered.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 3C and 1C, the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 is covered with a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 with the first object ob1 and the third object ob3. Among these, the display area covered by at least the first object ob1 and the third object ob3 is not visible (or difficult to see) from the front. Further, in this example, by covering a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208, a part of the first object ob1, and a part of the third object ob3 with the second object ob2,

Among the display areas of the decorative symbol display device 208, the display area covered only by the second object ob2 is also invisible (or difficult to see) from the front, and the first object ob1 and the third object ob3. Among these, the part covered by the second object ob2 is also invisible (or difficult to see) from the front.

  That is, in this example, a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 is obscured by the first object ob1, the second object ob2, and the third object ob3, and the first object ob1 and the third object ob3. A part of the object ob3 is also obscured by the second object ob2.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 2C and 2C, the position of the third object ob3 is changed from the example shown in FIGS. In this example, a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 is obscured by the first object ob1, the second object ob2, and the third object ob3 as shown in FIGS. Although it is the same as an example, since the position of the 3rd object ob3 is moved to the range which is not covered with the 2nd object ob2, the 3rd object ob3 is made visible from the front.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 3C and 3C, the position of the third object ob3 is changed from the examples shown in FIGS. In this example, a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 is obscured by the first object ob1, the second object ob2, and the third object ob3 (c) (1), ( 2) Although the same as the example shown in 2), since the position of the third object ob3 is moved to a position covering the first object ob1, the third object ob3 is visible from the front. Part of the first object ob1 is obscured by the third object ob3.

  In the example shown in FIGS. 4C and 4D, the position of the third object ob3 is changed from the examples shown in FIGS. In this example, a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 is obscured by the first object ob1, the second object ob2, and the third object ob3. 3) Although it is the same as the example shown in 3), since the position of the third object ob3 is moved to a position covering the second object ob2, the third object ob3 is visible from the front side. Part of the second object ob2 is obscured by the third object ob3.

  In the examples shown in FIGS. 5C and 5C, the position of the third object ob3 is changed from the examples shown in FIGS. In this example, a part of the display area of the decorative symbol display device 208 is obscured by the first object ob1, the second object ob2, and the third object ob3. 4), but since the position of the third object ob3 is moved to a position covering the first object ob1 and the second object ob2, the third object ob3 is visible from the front. On the other hand, a part of the first object ob1 and the second object ob2 is obscured by the third object ob3.

  FIG. 6D is a diagram showing variations in the shape of the second object ob2. The second object ob2 may have a rectangular shape as shown in FIGS. 4 (d) and (1), or an opening may be formed in a part thereof as shown in FIGS. 2 (d) and (2). Therefore, the rear may be configured to be visible through the opening. Further, as shown in FIGS. 3D and 3C, a notch portion may be formed in a part of the outer edge so that the rear side can be visually recognized through the notch portion. As shown in 4), both the opening and the notch may be formed.

  FIG. 158 is a diagram illustrating an example of specific effects in the pachinko machine according to the tenth embodiment.

. In this production example, the first variable winning port 234b and the second variable winning port 235b shown in FIG. 128 (e) are used as the first variable winning port and the second variable winning port. In the following description, it is assumed that the fourth passage detection switch SW8 provided in the second variable prize winning opening 235b functions as a V passage switch.

  For example, when “Special Figure C”, which is a 16R jackpot symbol, is stopped and displayed on the first special chart display device 212, as shown in FIG. 158 (a), the jackpot effect is executed and the jackpot game is started. In this effect example, the number of prize balls acquired by winning an attacker is displayed above the display of the number of consecutive resorts on the lower left of the decorative symbol display device 208. At the timing shown in FIG. 158 (a), the winning ball number is displayed as “00000” since there is no prize winning in the attacker yet. In the present embodiment, the number of prize balls acquired by winning the first variable prize opening 234b and the second variable prize opening 235b is 14, but the number of prize balls other than 14 may be used.

  FIG. 158 (b) shows the effect contents in the fourth round. At the timing shown in FIG. 158 (b), the display of the number of prize balls is “00504”. At this time, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a failure effect that failed in the promotion effect described above. This failure effect continues until the end of the 16th round.

  FIG. 158 (c) shows the effect contents at the end of the 15th round. At the timing shown in FIG. 158 (c), the display of the number of prize balls is “01988”.

  After that, at the 16th round, the second variable winning opening 235b is in an open state. However, since it is in an open state for a very short time, it is very difficult to pass V. In the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 158 (d), the above-described failure effect is continuously performed even in the 16th round.

  FIG. 158 (e) shows a state where one game ball has won a prize in the second variable prize opening 235b in the 16th round. Then, as shown in FIG. 158 (f), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the display of the number of prize balls is updated to “2002”, and 2000 prize balls are acquired below the center of the decorative symbol display device 208. The message “GET2000pt” is displayed. At this time, the winning ball 2000 acquisition sound is output from the speaker 120. In addition, although the effect that 2000 prize balls were acquired is realized by the display on the decorative symbol display device 208 and the sound output from the speaker 120, only one of them may be implemented. The output timing of the winning ball 2000 acquired sound may be simultaneous with the display of “GET2000pt”, the winning ball 2000 acquired sound may be output after the display of “GET2000pt”, or the winning ball 2000 is acquired. “GET2000pt” may be displayed after the sound is output.

  FIG. 158 (g) shows a state in which the game ball that has won the second variable winning opening 235b has passed through the fourth passage detection switch SW8 that functions as a V passage switch. Then, as shown in FIG. 158 (h), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability change has been confirmed, and outputs a V winning sound from the speaker 120. At this time, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V” superimposed on the above-described “GET2000pt” display. Note that “GET2000pt” may be displayed on top of “V”. Further, in this production example, the notification that the probability variation has been confirmed is realized by the display on the decorative symbol display device 208 and the sound output from the speaker 120, but only one of them may be implemented. The V winning sound may be output simultaneously with the display of “V”, the V winning sound may be output after the display of “V”, or after the V winning sound is output. “V” may be displayed.

In this example, the effect that the winning ball has been acquired and the notification that the probability variation has been confirmed are overlapped, but these are only described as an example of a combination of effects. The combinations of effects that can be executed are not limited to those described above. In addition, among a plurality of types of effects, a certain effect combination (for example, a first effect combination) may not be executed redundantly. In addition, for example, when a combination of certain effects (for example, a combination of the first effects) is executed according to the game conditions, a combination of certain effects (for example, a combination of the first effects) is overlapped. For example, in a big hit game in which the third game condition is difficult to be established, the effect that the prize ball has been won and the notification that the probability change has been confirmed overlap. In a jackpot game that is not executed and the third game condition is likely to be established, the effect that the winning ball has been acquired and the notification that the probability variation has been confirmed may be executed in an overlapping manner.
[Embodiment 11]

  An eleventh embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above. The pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment is described as an example provided with the attacker unit 2340 shown in FIG. 124. Of course, the pachinko machine 100 provided with the game board 200 as shown in FIG. Embodiments can also be applied. In the above description, the second variable winning opening 235 and the V passage 2340g are defined as an example of the first region. However, in the following description, the second variable winning opening 235 and the V passage 2340g are used. Will be described as an example of the second region.

  With reference to FIGS. 159 to 161, an example of the operation timing of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) and the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) between rounds will be described.

  FIG. 159 (a) is a timing chart showing an example of the operation in the case of releasing the long in all four consecutive rounds, and FIG. 159 (b) is the first round of the four consecutive rounds. FIG. 159 (c) is a timing chart showing an example of an operation when only a long opening is performed and a short opening is performed in other rounds, and FIG. 159 (c) is set when a round in which the second variable winning opening 235a is opened is started. It is a timing chart which shows an example of the operation pattern of the probability change operation area | region solenoid made, and the period which is a probability change operation area effective state. Here, in any case of FIG. 159 (a) to FIG. 159 (c), the big hit game is being shown, and the signal indicating the special game is continuously in the ON state. Note that the four consecutive rounds described below may include the final round, may include the first round, and includes both the final round and the first round. It may be not included, and may include both the last round and the first round. The same applies to the case of three consecutive rounds and the case of two consecutive rounds.

  First, with reference to FIG. 159 (a), an example of an operation in the case where a long release is performed in all four consecutive rounds will be described. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 159 (a), the first attacker long-releases in the first round of the four consecutive rounds, the second attacker long-releases in the second round, It is shown that the first attacker is long open in the third round and the second attacker is long open in the fourth round. The operation pattern shown in FIG. 159 (a) is an operation pattern that may be executed with a big hit (special big hit) scheduled to acquire probability variation. The jackpot game including the operation pattern shown in FIG. 159 (a) is an example of a third jackpot game.

  As shown in FIG. 159 (a), when a round (round RA) in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) opens at the timing of a01 starts, the solenoid SOL1

It becomes ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable winning opening 234a (first variable winning means) is displaced from the closed state (first state) to the open state (second state). That is, the first variable prize winning opening 234a is configured to be able to change between a closed state in which a game ball cannot enter at least and an open state in which a game ball can enter at least. At this time, for example, the big prize opening 1 opening signal and the big prize opening 1 operating signal output from the main control unit 300 are turned ON, and the period of the big prize opening 1 valid state is set. Here, the special winning opening 1 opening signal is a signal indicating the operating state of the solenoid SOL1. That is, the special winning opening 1 opening signal indicates whether the first attacker is in an open state or a closed state. The special winning opening 1 opening signal may be a drive signal for the solenoid SOL1, or the large winning opening 1 opening signal may not be output. The signal indicating that the winning prize opening 1 is operating is a signal indicating whether or not it is a period for detecting the game ball that has entered the first attacker with the winning count switch SW4, and will be described later after the round starts. It shows the period until the interval between rounds is started. Further, the period in which the grand prize opening 1 is in an effective state corresponds to the attacker 1 effective period described above with reference to FIG. 130, and indicates a period in which a game ball passing through the winning count switch SW4 is treated as being effective. is there. It should be noted that the period in which the grand prize opening 1 is valid can be arbitrarily set. For example, the period in which the big prize opening 1 is valid may be set after the power is turned on until the power is turned off. The jackpot game may be set from the start to the end, or may be set in at least a part of the period when the second attacker is in the open state. Further, a game ball passing through the winning count switch SW4 may be handled as valid even outside the valid period of the attacker 1. In this case, it may be invalid while the second attacker is open. In the following description, the winning count switch SW4 may be referred to as an example of a first area.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of a02, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal is also turned OFF. After that, when a predetermined post-round closing time (for example, 1.9 seconds) elapses and the timing becomes a03, the special winning opening 1 operating signal is turned OFF and the round RA ends. Here, the period from a02 to a03 may be referred to as a remaining sphere detection period. By providing this remaining ball detection period, it may be possible to prevent the game ball that has entered the attacker from being detected by the winning count switch after the next round is started. In the present embodiment, it is defined that the round ends at the timing of starting the interval time between rounds to be described later (for example, timing of a03), but the timing of starting the next round (for example, timing of a04) ) May be defined as the end of the round. Moreover, you may define that a round is complete | finished at the timing (for example, timing of a02) when solenoid SOL1 turned OFF and the 1st door member 2341a displaced to the closed state. In other words, it may be defined that a part of the period in which the attacker is closed between rounds is not included in the round, or the entire period in which the attacker is closed between rounds is included in the round. You may define it as not. Further, the period during which the attacker is closed between rounds may be defined as belonging to any one of the rounds.

  When a predetermined interval time (for example, 0.1 second) elapses after the timing of a03, the next round (round RB) starts at the timing of a04. At this time, the period of the grand prize opening 1 valid state ends, and the solenoid SOL2 is turned ON, and the shutter member 2351a of the second variable prize opening 235a (second variable prize winning means) is closed (first state). ) To an open state (second state). In other words, the second variable winning opening 235a is configured to be able to change between a closed state in which a game ball cannot enter at least and an open state in which a game ball can enter at least. The period in which the winning opening 1 is valid ends at the timing when the next round is started, but may be ended after the next round is started. Further, the period in which the big winning opening 1 is valid may be continued until the big hit game is ended after being set once. At this time, the solenoid SOL

3 (probability change operation region solenoid) is turned ON, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, for example, the big prize opening 2 opening signal and the big prize opening 2 operating signal output from the main control unit 300 are turned ON, and the period of the big prize opening 2 valid state and the period of the probability change operation region valid state are set. Is set. Here, the special winning opening 2 opening signal is a signal indicating the operating state of the solenoid SOL2. That is, the special winning opening 2 opening signal indicates whether the second attacker is in an open state or a closed state. The signal indicating that the winning opening 2 is in operation is a signal indicating whether or not it is a period for detecting the game ball that has entered the second attacker with the winning count switch SW1. It shows the period until the interval starts. Further, the period in which the special winning opening 2 is in an effective state corresponds to the effective period of the attacker 2 described above with reference to FIG. 130, and indicates a period in which a game ball passing through the winning count switch SW1 is treated as being effective. is there. It should be noted that the period in which the special winning opening 2 is valid can be arbitrarily set. For example, the period in which the special winning opening 2 is valid may be set after the power is turned on until the power is shut off. The jackpot game may be set from the start to the end, or may be set in at least a part of the period when the first attacker is in the open state. Further, the period during which the probability variation operating area is in an effective state corresponds to the V passing effective period described above with reference to FIG. 130, and a game ball passing through the V passing switch SW2 (second area) is treated as being effective. Indicates the period. In the following description, the probability variation operating region effective state may be referred to as a second region effective state. Note that the period during which the probability change operation region is valid can be arbitrarily set. For example, the period of the probability change operation region valid state may always be set after the power is turned on until the power is turned off. It may be set from the start to the end of the game. After the V shutter 2352a is opened at the timing a04, the V shutter 2352a is once closed when a predetermined first shutter opening time (for example, 0.5 seconds) elapses, and then the predetermined first shutter is closed. When the time (for example, 3 seconds) elapses, it is operated so as to be opened again. The operation pattern and operation time of the V shutter 2352a can be set as appropriate.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF at the timing of a05, and the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 2 release signal is also turned OFF. In the following description, for example, a period in which the second variable prize opening 235a is in an open state, such as a period from a04 to a05, may be referred to as a first period. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round described above has elapsed and the timing becomes a06, the special winning opening 2 operating signal is turned OFF and the round RB ends. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state, and the period of the probability changing operation region valid state is also ended. Here again, the period from a05 to a06 is the remaining sphere detection period. In the following description, the round RB may be an example of a first round including at least a first period.

  When the above-described interval time between rounds elapses after the timing of a06, the next round (round RC) starts at the timing of a07. At this time, the period of the large winning opening 2 valid state ends, and the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 in-operation signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set. Hereinafter, the operations performed at the timings indicated by a08 to a13 are the same as the operations performed at the timings indicated by a02 to a07, respectively. When the round RD is the final round, the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing a12. Further, the interval time between rounds may elapse after the timing of a12, and the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of a13. When the round RD is not the final round, the next round may be started when the interval time between rounds has passed after the timing of a12 and the timing of a13 is reached. In the following description, for example, a second variable such as a period from a07 to a08.

The period in which the winning opening 235a is closed and the first variable winning opening 234a is in the open state may be referred to as a second period. Further, in the following description, for example, a period in which the second variable prize opening 235a is in an open state, such as a period from a10 to a11, may be referred to as a third period. In the following description, the round RC may be referred to as an example of a second round including at least a second period, and the round RD may be referred to as an example of a third round including at least a third period. There is. As described above, the second period can be said to be a period that starts after the first period, and the third period is a period that starts after the second period. It can be said that. In the following description, for example, a period in which the second variable winning opening 235a is in an open state, such as a period from a04 to a05 or a period from a10 to a11, may be referred to as a sixth period.

  As described above, in the operation pattern shown in FIG. 159 (a), in the round RB and the round RD, the second attacker is opened long, and the game ball can easily enter the V-pass switch SW2. .

  Next, with reference to FIG. 159 (b), an example of an operation in the case where only the first round of the four consecutive rounds is opened long and the other rounds are opened short will be described. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 159 (b), the first attacker in the first round of the four consecutive rounds is long open, the second attacker in the second round is short open, In the third round, the first attacker is short-opened, and in the fourth round, the second attacker is short-opened. The operation pattern shown in FIG. 159 (b) is an operation pattern that may be executed with a big hit that is not scheduled to acquire probability variation. The jackpot game including the operation pattern shown in FIG. 159 (b) is an example of a first jackpot game.

  As shown in FIG. 159 (b), when the round (round RA) in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened at the timing of b01 starts, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON and the first variable The first door member 2341a of the winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 operating signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of b02, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round has elapsed and the timing of b03 is reached, the signal indicating that the special winning opening 1 is in operation is turned OFF, and the round RA ends. Here again, the period from b02 to b03 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the above-described interval time between rounds has elapsed after the timing of b03, the next round (round RB) starts at the timing of b04. At this time, the period of the big winning opening 1 valid state ends, and the solenoid SOL2 is turned ON, and the shutter member 2351a of the second variable winning opening 235a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 (probability change operation region solenoid) is turned ON, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, for example, the big prize opening 2 release signal and the big prize opening 2 operating signal are turned ON, and the period for the big prize opening 2 valid state and the period for the probability variation operating area valid state are set.

  Since the round RB is a short open round, the open time of the attacker in the round RB is shorter than the long open round (short open time) (for example, 0.5 seconds). Therefore, when the short opening time has elapsed from the start of the round RB, the round end condition is satisfied at the timing of b05, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF, and the shutter member 2351a is changed from the open state to the closed state. Therefore, round RB is a game to the second attacker

It can be said that it is difficult to enter the ball. Here, after the solenoid SOL3 (probability changing operation solenoid) for driving the V shutter 2352a is opened at the timing of b04 as shown by the broken line in FIG. 159 (c), the first shutter opening described above is performed. After the time has elapsed, the drive setting is performed so that the first shutter is closed and then the first shutter closing time described above is opened again. In the short open round, the first shutter is set. Since the round end condition is satisfied at the timing when the opening time elapses (or before the first shutter closing time elapses), the round is ended without performing the subsequent driving operation. The same applies to the period during which the probability variation operating region is valid. Accordingly, it can be said that in the round RB, it is difficult to enter the game ball into the second attacker and it is also difficult to enter the V-pass switch SW2. In this way, the period from b04 to b05 can be regarded as an example of the first period. The short opening time of the second attacker may be the same time as the short opening time of the first attacker or may be a different time. In this case, the short opening time of the second attacker may be longer, or the short opening time of the first attacker may be longer.

  Thereafter, when the closing time after the round described above elapses and the timing becomes b06, the special winning opening 2 operating signal is turned OFF and the round RB ends. At this time, since the solenoid SOL3 remains OFF, the V shutter 2352a also remains closed, while the period of the probability variation operating region valid state ends at this timing. Here again, the period from b05 to b06 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the above-described inter-round interval time elapses after the timing of b06, the next round (round RC) starts at the timing of b07. At this time, the period of the large winning opening 2 valid state ends, and the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 operating signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set.

  Since the round RC is also a short opening round, the attacker's opening time in the round RC is the short opening time described above. Therefore, when the short opening time elapses from the start of the round RC, the round end condition is satisfied at the timing b08, the solenoid SOL1 is turned off, and the first door member 2341a is changed from the open state to the closed state. Therefore, it can be said that the round RC is a round in which it is difficult for the game ball to enter the first attacker. In this manner, the period from b07 to b08 can be regarded as an example of the second period.

  Thereafter, when the closing time after the above-described round passes and the timing becomes b09, the signal indicating that the winning prize opening 1 is in operation is turned OFF, and the round RC ends. Here again, the period from b08 to b09 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the above-described interval time between rounds elapses after the timing of b09, the next round (round RD) starts at the timing of b10. Thereafter, the operations performed at the timings indicated by b10 to b13 are the same as the operations performed at the timings indicated by b04 to b07, respectively. Therefore, it can be said that in the round RD, it is difficult for the game ball to enter the second attacker and it is also difficult to enter the V-pass switch SW2. When the round RD is the final round, the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of b12. Alternatively, the interval time between rounds may elapse after the timing of b12, and the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of b13. When the round RD is not the final round, the next round may be started when the inter-round interval time elapses after the timing b12 and the timing b13.

  Thus, the period from b10 to b11 can be said to be an example of the third period. Further, in the following description, for example, a period in which the first variable winning opening 234a is in an open state, such as a period from b01 to b02 or a period from b07 to b08, may be referred to as a fourth period. For example, a period in which the second variable winning opening 235a is in an open state, such as a period from b04 to b05 or a period from b10 to b11, may be referred to as a fifth period.

  FIG. 160 (a) is a timing chart showing an example of the operation when only the second round of the four consecutive rounds is short-released and the other rounds are long-open, and FIG. FIG. 10 is a timing chart showing an example of an operation in a case where only the second round of the four consecutive rounds is opened short and the other rounds are opened long. Here, in both cases of FIG. 160 (a) and FIG. 160 (b), the big hit game is shown, and the signal indicating the special game is continuously ON.

  With reference to FIG. 160 (a), an example of the operation in the case where only the second round of the four consecutive rounds is short-opened and the other rounds are long-opened will be described. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 160 (a), the first attacker in the first round of the four consecutive rounds is long open, the second attacker in the second round is short open, It is shown that the first attacker is long open in the third round and the second attacker is long open in the fourth round. The operation pattern shown in FIG. 160 (a) is an operation pattern that may be executed with a big hit (special big hit) scheduled to acquire probability variation. In the following description, the jackpot game including the operation pattern shown in FIG. 160 (a) may be referred to as an example of a second jackpot game.

  As shown in FIG. 160 (a), when a round (round RA) in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened at the timing of c01 starts, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON and the first variable The first door member 2341a of the winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 in-operation signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of c02, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the above-described closing time after the round has passed and the timing becomes c03, the signal for operating the special winning opening 1 is OFF and the round RA ends. Here again, the period from c02 to c03 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the above-described interval time between rounds elapses after the timing of c03, the next round (round RB) starts at the timing of c04. At this time, the period of the big winning opening 1 valid state ends, and the solenoid SOL2 is turned ON, and the shutter member 2351a of the second variable winning opening 235a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 (probability change operation region solenoid) is turned ON, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, for example, the big prize opening 2 release signal and the big prize opening 2 operating signal are turned ON, and the period for the big prize opening 2 valid state and the period for the probability variation operating area valid state are set.

  Since the round RB is a short opening round, the opening time of the attacker in the round RB is a short opening time. Here, the operations performed at the timings indicated by c04 to c07 related to the round RB are the same as the operations performed at the timings indicated by b04 to b07 in FIG. 159 (b), respectively. Therefore, in the round RB, it is difficult to enter the game ball into the second attacker and it is also difficult to enter the V-pass switch SW2.

Can do. Thereafter, the operations performed at the timings indicated by c07 to c13 are the same as the operations performed at the timings indicated by a07 to a13 in FIG. 159 (a), respectively.

  As described above, in the operation pattern shown in FIG. 160 (a), in the round RD, the second attacker is opened long, and the game ball can easily enter the V-pass switch SW2. When the round RD is the final round, the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of c12. Alternatively, the interval time between rounds may elapse after the timing of c12, and the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of c13. When the round RD is not the final round, the next round may be started when the inter-round interval time elapses after the timing of c12 and the timing of c13 is reached.

  As described above, the period from c04 to c05 can be referred to as an example of the first period, the period from c07 to c08 can be referred to as an example of the second period, and the period from c10 to c11 can be referred to as an example of the third period. It can be said. In the present embodiment, the third period (c10 to c11) can be said to be longer than the first period (c04 to c05), and the second period (c07 to c08). It can be said that this period is longer than the first period (the period from c04 to c05). The period from c01 to c02, the period from c07 to c08 can be referred to as an example of the fourth period, the period from c04 to c05, and the period from c10 to c11 can be referred to as an example of the fifth period.

  The specific opening may be constituted by the short opening of the second attacker and the long opening of the second attacker. This specific release may be constituted by a plurality of rounds or may be constituted by the same round.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 160 (b), an example of an operation in the case where only the second round of the four consecutive rounds is short-opened and the other rounds are long-opened will be described. The example shown in FIG. 160 (b) is the same as the example shown in FIG. 160 (a) except that the operation in the round RD is different. That is, the operation pattern shown in FIG. 160 (b) is an operation pattern that may be executed with a big hit (special big hit) scheduled to acquire probability variation. The jackpot game including the operation pattern shown in FIG. 160 (b) can be regarded as an example of a second jackpot game.

  As shown in FIG. 160 (b), the operations performed at the timings indicated by d01 to d10 are the same as the operations performed at the timings indicated by c01 to c10 in FIG. 160 (a), respectively. In this effect example, as in the period from d04 to d05, the period during which the second variable prize opening 235a is in the open state (short open) may be referred to as the first period.

  When the round RD is started at the timing of d10, the period of the large winning opening 1 valid state is ended, and the solenoid SOL2 is turned on to open the shutter member 2351a of the second variable winning opening 235a from the closed state. Displace to the state. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 (probability change operation region solenoid) is turned ON, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special prize opening 2 release signal and the special prize opening 2 operating signal are turned ON, and the period for the special prize opening 2 valid state and the period for the probability variation operating area valid state are set. Here, after the shutter member 2351a is opened at the timing of d10, the shutter member 2351a is temporarily closed when a predetermined attacker 2 opening time (for example, 0.5 seconds) elapses, and then the predetermined attacker 2 closing time. When (for example, 2 seconds) elapses, it is operated so as to be opened again. Here, the attacker 2 closing time may be the same as the period from when the round end condition is satisfied and the attacker is in the closed state until the next round is started and the attacker is in the open state, The attacker 2 closing time may be longer, or the attacker 2 closing time may be shorter. Also

The time until the second attacker opens in the round when the second attacker opens long after the second attacker closes in the round when the second attacker opens short, and the attacker 2 closes The time may be the same time or a different time. At this time, the closing time of the attacker 2 may be longer, or after the second attacker is in the closed state in the round in which the second attacker is short-opened, the second in the round in which the second attacker is long-opened The time until the attacker becomes an open state may be longer. Further, the attacker 2 opening time may be the same time as the opening time (short opening time) of the second attacker in the round RB, or may be a different time. In other words, the time for performing the short opening in the round in which the second attacker performs the short opening and the long opening and the opening time of the attacker in the round in which only the short opening is performed may be the same time or different times. It may be. At this time, the opening time of the attacker 2 may be longer, or the short opening time of the second attacker may be longer. On the other hand, the operation pattern of the V shutter 2352a is the same as that shown in FIG. In the operation pattern shown in FIG. 160 (b), in the round RD, the second attacker performs a short release and performs a long release operation after closing for a certain period of time. When I was disappointed that it was not a game, after that the second attacker opened a long game and found that it was a special big hit, so that I could increase my expectation for the gaming state to move to after the big hit game There is. In the present embodiment, the above-described attacker 2 closing time (for example, 2 seconds) is shorter than the above-described first shutter closing time (for example, 3 seconds). Alternatively, the attacker 2 closing time may be longer.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF at the timing of d11, and the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 2 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the closing time after the above-described round has elapsed and the timing of d12 is reached, the signal indicating that the special winning opening 2 is in operation is turned OFF, and the round RD ends. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state, and the period of the probability changing operation region valid state is also ended. Here again, the period from d11 to d12 is the remaining sphere detection period. As described above, in this effect example, the period from the time when the second attacker is opened at the timing of d10 to the time when the above-described attacker 2 opening time elapses and is closed (short opening) is the first period. It can be said that it is an example of a period, and the period from the time when the second attacker 2 is closed to the time when the attacker 2 closing time elapses until it is opened again can be called the second period. The period from the time when the attacker is in the open state to the time when it is closed at the timing of d11 can be called a third period. Here, either or both of the above-described period from d04 to d05 and the timing from d10 to the time when the second attacker opens and the time when the attacker 2 opening time elapses to the closed state are set as the first. It can also be said that the period. When round RD is the final round, the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of d12. Further, the interval time between rounds may elapse after the timing of d12, and the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of d13. When the round RD is not the final round, the next round may be started when the inter-round interval time elapses after the timing of d12 and reaches the timing of d13.

  In this effect example, another period may be interposed between the first period, the second period, and the third period. For example, in the case of (1) short opening- (2) long closing- (3) short opening- (4) short closing- (5) long opening operation for the second attacker, the first period is (1 ) In the case of short opening, the second period can be either (2) long closing or (4) short closing.

  In FIG. 161 (a), the first attacker opens long in all two consecutive rounds.

FIG. 161 (b) is a timing chart showing an example of the operation in this case, and the first attacker opens long only in the first round of the three consecutive rounds, and the second attacker in the other rounds. It is a timing chart which shows an example of an operation | movement in case a short opens. Here, in both cases of FIG. 161 (a) and FIG. 161 (b), the big hit game is indicated, and the signal indicating the special game is continuously ON.

  First, with reference to FIG. 161 (a), an example of the operation when the first attacker opens long in all two consecutive rounds will be described. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 161 (a), the first attacker is long open in the first round of two consecutive rounds, and the first attacker is long open in the second round. The situation is shown. The operation pattern shown in FIG. 161 (a) is an operation pattern that may be executed in any of the big hits (special big hits) scheduled to acquire probability variation and the big hits not scheduled to acquire probability variation.

  As shown in FIG. 161 (a), when a round (round RE) in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened at the timing of e01 is started, the solenoid SOL1 is turned on to be the first variable. The first door member 2341a of the winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 operating signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of e02, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the above-described closing time after the round elapses and the timing becomes e03, the signal indicating that the winning prize opening 1 is in operation is turned OFF, and the round RE ends. Again, the period from e02 to e03 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the above-described interval time between rounds elapses after the timing of e03, the next round (round RF) starts at the timing of e04. At this time, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable prize winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 operating signal are turned ON. On the other hand, the period in which the special winning opening 1 is valid continues without ending.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of e05, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round described above elapses and the timing becomes e06, the signal indicating that the special winning opening 1 is in operation is turned OFF and the round RF is ended. Here again, the period from e05 to e06 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the interval time between rounds described above elapses after the timing of e06, the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state ends at the timing of e07. When the round RF is the final round, the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of e07. The big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of e06. When the round RF is not the final round, the next round may be started when the interval time between rounds elapses after e06 timing and e07 timing is reached.

  Next, referring to FIG. 161 (b), when the first attacker opens long only in the first round among the three consecutive rounds, and the second attacker opens short in other rounds. An example of the operation will be described. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 161 (b), in the first round of the three consecutive rounds, the first attacker opens long and the second round

The second attacker is short-opened, and the second attacker is short-opened in the third round. The operation pattern shown in FIG. 161 (b) is an operation pattern that may be executed with a big hit that is not scheduled to be acquired.

  As shown in FIG. 161 (b), when the round (round RG) in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened at the timing of f01 starts, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON and the first variable The first door member 2341a of the winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 operating signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of f02, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round has elapsed and the timing of f03 is reached, the signal indicating that the special winning opening 1 is in operation is turned OFF and the round RG ends. Similarly, the period from f02 to f03 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the above-described interval time between rounds has elapsed after the timing of f03, the next round (round RH) starts at the timing of f04. At this time, the period of the big winning opening 1 valid state ends, and the solenoid SOL2 is turned ON, and the shutter member 2351a of the second variable winning opening 235a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 (probability change operation region solenoid) is turned ON, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special prize opening 2 release signal and the special prize opening 2 operating signal are turned ON, and the period for the special prize opening 2 valid state and the period for the probability variation operating area valid state are set.

  Since the round RH is a short opening round, the opening time of the attacker in the round RH is the short opening time described above. Therefore, when the short opening time has elapsed from the start of the round RH, the round end condition is satisfied at the timing f05, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF, and the shutter member 2351a is changed from the open state to the closed state. Therefore, it can be said that in the round RH, it is difficult for the game ball to enter the second attacker and it is also difficult to enter the V-pass switch SW2.

  Thereafter, when the above-described closing time after the round elapses and the timing becomes f06, the signal for operating the winning prize opening 2 is turned OFF and the round RH ends. At this time, since the solenoid SOL3 remains OFF, the V shutter 2352a also remains closed, while the period of the probability variation operating region valid state ends at this timing. Similarly, the remaining ball detection period is from f05 to f06.

  When the above-described inter-round interval time elapses after the timing of f06, the next round (round RI) starts at the timing of f07. At this time, the solenoid SOL2 is turned ON, and the shutter member 2351a of the second variable prize winning opening 235a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 (probability change operation region solenoid) is turned ON, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special prize opening 2 release signal and the special prize opening 2 operating signal are turned ON, and the period of the probability variation operating region valid state is set. On the other hand, the period in which the special winning opening 2 is valid continues without ending.

  Since the round RI is also a short opening round, the attacker's opening time in the round RI is the short opening time described above. Therefore, when the short opening time has elapsed from the start of the round RI, the round end condition is satisfied at the timing f08, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF, and the shutter member 2351a is changed from the open state to the closed state. Therefore, round R

I can say that it is difficult for the game ball to enter the second attacker and it is also difficult to enter the V-pass switch SW2.

  Thereafter, when the above-described closing time after the round has passed and the timing becomes f09, the signal indicating that the special winning opening 2 is in operation is turned OFF, and the round RI ends. At this time, since the solenoid SOL3 remains OFF, the V shutter 2352a also remains closed, while the period of the probability variation operating region valid state ends at this timing. Similarly, the remaining ball detection period is from f08 to f09.

  After the timing of f09, when the above-described interval time between rounds has elapsed, the period of the big winning opening 2 valid state ends at the timing of f10. When the round RI is the final round, the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of f10. Also, the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of f09. When the round RI is not the final round, the next round may be started when the inter-round interval time elapses after the timing f09 and the timing becomes f10.

  Thus, in the effect example shown in FIG. 161 (b), the period from f04 to f05 can be referred to as an example of the first period, the period from f05 to f07 can be referred to as an example of the second period, and f07. To f08 can be considered as an example of a third period.

  Next, an example of operation timings of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) and the second variable winning opening 235a (second attacker) between rounds will be described with reference to FIG. In the embodiment described so far, when the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW2 in the big hit game, it is configured to shift to a probable change state after the big hit game is finished. However, in the embodiment shown in FIG. During the execution of the round game opened by the second attacker, the game is configured to be able to shift to the next round on condition that the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW2 provided in the second attacker. That is, the V pass switch SW2 functions as a continuation area. In the present embodiment, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the round game is ended, and the game proceeds to the next round when the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW2 in the round game. However, when the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW2 during execution of the round game, the round game may be ended and the next round may be started. In any case, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 162, a game ball does not pass through the V-pass switch SW2 during execution of a round game in which at least the second attacker (an attacker with the V-pass switch SW2) is opened. When the round game ends, the big hit game ends without shifting to the next round.

  FIG. 162 (a) is a timing chart showing an example of the operation in the case of releasing the long in all four consecutive rounds, and FIG. 162 (b) is the first round of the four consecutive rounds. 6 is a timing chart showing an example of an operation when only a long opening is performed and a short opening is performed in other rounds. Here, in both cases of FIG. 162 (a) and FIG. 162 (b), the big hit game is indicated, and the signal indicating the special game is continuously ON. Further, in this embodiment, at least during the big hit game, the duration of the continuous area valid state is set. The period of the continuous area valid state indicates a period in which the game ball passing through the V pass switch SW2 is treated as valid. The duration of the continuous area valid state may be set even in a gaming state other than the big hit game, may be set only during the operation of the second variable winning opening 235a, or the big winning opening 2 It may be set only while the operating signal is ON.

  First, with reference to FIG. 162 (a), an example of an operation in the case of releasing long in all four consecutive rounds will be described. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 162 (a), the first attacker long-releases in the first round of the four consecutive rounds, the second attacker long-releases in the second round, It is shown that the first attacker is long open in the third round and the second attacker is long open in the fourth round.

  As shown in FIG. 162 (a), when the round (round RJ) in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened at the timing of g01 starts, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON and the first variable The first door member 2341a of the winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 in-operation signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of g02, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round elapses and the timing of g03 is reached, the signal for operating the winning prize opening 1 is turned OFF and the round RJ is completed. Here again, g02 to g03 are the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the above-described interval time between rounds elapses after the timing of g03, the next round (round RK) starts at the timing of g04. At this time, the period of the big winning opening 1 valid state ends, and the solenoid SOL2 is turned ON, and the shutter member 2351a of the second variable winning opening 235a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 (in this embodiment, the continuation area solenoid) is turned ON, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 2 release signal and the special winning opening 2 operating signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 2 valid state is set. After the V shutter 2352a is opened at the timing of g04, the V shutter 2352a is temporarily closed when the first shutter opening time described above has elapsed, and then is again opened when the first shutter closing time described above has elapsed. It works to be. The operation pattern of the V shutter 2352a is determined in advance. For example, the V shutter 2352a may be operated in a predetermined operation pattern from the start of the big hit game, or the second attacker opens. The operation of the V shutter 2352a may be started with an operation pattern predetermined at the timing. Further, when the round in which the second attacker opens long is started as in round RK, the decorative symbol display device 208 may be displayed to indicate that the continuation area is aimed.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF at the timing of g05, and the shutter member 2351a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 2 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round has passed and the timing of g06 is reached, the signal indicating that the winning prize opening 2 is in operation is turned OFF and the round RK is completed. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 is turned OFF and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. Similarly, the period from g05 to g06 is the remaining sphere detection period.

After the time of g06, when the above-mentioned interval time between rounds has elapsed and the timing of g07 is reached, the period of the big winning opening 2 valid state is over and the game ball has passed through the V pass switch SW2 in the round RK. It is determined whether or not. If it is determined that the game ball has passed through the V passing switch SW2 in the round RK, the next round (round RL) is started. On the other hand, if it is not determined that the game ball has passed through the V pass switch SW2 in the round RK, that is, if the game ball has not passed through the V pass switch SW2 in the round RK, the big hit game without shifting to the round RL. An end effect is executed, and then the big hit game ends.

  When the round RL is started, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable prize winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 in-operation signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set. Thereafter, the operations performed at the timings indicated by g08 to g13 are the same as the operations performed at the timings indicated by g02 to g07, respectively. When the round RM is the final round, the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of g12. Further, the interval time between rounds may elapse after the timing of g12, and the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of g13. When the round RM is not the final round, the following condition is satisfied on the condition that the round interval RM has passed the V-pass switch SW2 when the interval time between rounds has elapsed and the timing of g13 is reached after the timing of g12. The round may be started.

  As described above, in the operation pattern shown in FIG. 162 (a), in the round RK and the round RM, the second attacker is opened long, and the game ball can easily enter the V-pass switch SW2. .

  Next, with reference to FIG. 162 (b), an example of the operation in the case where only the first round of the four consecutive rounds is opened long and the other rounds are opened short will be described. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 162 (b), the first attacker in the first round of the four consecutive rounds is long open, the second attacker in the second round is short open, In the third round, the first attacker is short-opened, and in the fourth round, the second attacker is short-opened. In the operation pattern shown in FIG. 162 (b), in most cases, it is difficult to pass the game ball to the V pass switch SW2 in the second round (round RK). The big hit game will end. That is, the operation pattern shown in FIG. 162 (b) is an operation pattern in which the big hit game is substantially ended in round RJ.

  As shown in FIG. 162 (b), when the round (round RJ) in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is opened at the timing of h01 starts, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON and the first variable The first door member 2341a of the winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 in-operation signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of h02, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the above-described closing time after the round elapses and the timing becomes h03, the signal indicating that the winning prize opening 1 is in operation is turned OFF and the round RJ ends. Here again, the period from h02 to h03 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the above-described interval time between rounds elapses after the timing of h03, the next round (round RK) starts at the timing of h04. At this time, the period of the big winning opening 1 valid state ends, and the solenoid SOL2 is turned ON, and the shutter member 2351a of the second variable winning opening 235a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the solenoid SOL3 (continuation area solenoid) is turned ON, and the V shutter 2352a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, for example, the special winning opening 2 release signal and the special winning opening 2 operating signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 2 valid state is set.

  Since round RK is a short open round, when the attacker opens in round RK

There is a short opening time. Therefore, when the short opening time elapses from the start of the round RK, the round end condition is satisfied at the timing of h05, the solenoid SOL2 is turned OFF, and the shutter member 2351a is changed from the open state to the closed state. Therefore, it can be said that in the round RK, it is difficult for the game ball to enter the second attacker and it is also difficult to enter the V-pass switch SW2.

  After that, when the closing time after the round described above has elapsed and the timing of h06 is reached, the signal indicating that the special winning opening 2 is in operation is turned OFF, and the round RK ends. At this time, since the solenoid SOL3 remains OFF, the V shutter 2352a also remains closed. Here again, the period from h05 to h06 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  After the time of h06, when the above-mentioned interval time between rounds has passed and the timing of h07 is reached, the period of the big winning opening 2 valid state is over and the game ball has passed through the V pass switch SW2 in the round RK. It is determined whether or not. If it is determined that the game ball has passed through the V passing switch SW2 in the round RK, the next round (round RL) is started. On the other hand, if it is not determined that the game ball has passed through the V pass switch SW2 in the round RK, that is, if the game ball has not passed through the V pass switch SW2 in the round RK, the big hit game without shifting to the round RL. An end effect is executed, and then the big hit game ends.

  When the round RL is started, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable prize winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 in-operation signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set.

  Since the round RL is also a short opening round, the attacker's opening time in the round RL is the short opening time described above. Therefore, when the short opening time elapses from the start of the round RL, the round end condition is satisfied at the timing of h08, the solenoid SOL1 is turned off, and the first door member 2341a is changed from the open state to the closed state. Therefore, it can be said that the round RL is a round in which it is difficult for the game ball to enter the first attacker.

  Thereafter, when the closing time after the round described above elapses and the timing becomes h09, the winning prize 1 operating signal is turned OFF and the round RL ends. Here again, the period from h08 to h09 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  When the inter-round interval time described above elapses after the timing of h09, the next round (round RM) starts at the timing of h10. Thereafter, the operations performed at the timings indicated by h10 to h13 are the same as the operations performed at the timings indicated by h04 to h07, respectively. Accordingly, it can be said that in the round RM, it is difficult for the game ball to enter the second attacker and it is also difficult to enter the V-pass switch SW2. If the round RM is the final round, the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of h12. Alternatively, the interval time between rounds may elapse after the timing of h12, and the big hit game end effect may be started at the timing of h13. If the round RM is not the final round, the following condition is satisfied on the condition that the round interval RM has passed through the V-pass switch SW2 when the interval time between rounds has elapsed and the timing of h13 has been reached after the timing of h12. The round may be started.

  In the present embodiment, rounds opened by an attacker (second attacker) having a continuation area are the second and subsequent rounds, but may be the first round.

  Further, in the present embodiment, one or a plurality of rounds for short-opening an attacker (first attacker) having no continuation area is executed so as to make it difficult for the player to know how many rounds are. It may be configured.

  Next, an example of the operation timing of the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) in the small hit game and the big hit game will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 163 (a) is a timing chart showing an example of the operation in the small hit game, and FIG. 163 (b) is a timing chart showing an example of the operation in the big hit game. In this embodiment, when the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW2 in the big hit game, the game is shifted to the probability changing state after the big hit game is finished. Further, in this embodiment, a general discharge passage (sometimes referred to as a first discharge passage) for discharging the game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a and passed through the winning count switch SW4, a general discharge passage, Is provided with a separate production discharge passage (sometimes referred to as a second discharge passage) and is capable of being displaced between a state in which game balls are allowed to enter the production discharge passage and a state in which entry is blocked. An area shutter is provided. The effect area shutter is configured to be displaceable, for example, by driving an effect area solenoid, and the effect area solenoid is configured to be driven and controlled by the first sub-control unit 400, for example.

  First, an example of the operation in the small hit game will be described with reference to FIG. That is, in the example shown in FIG. 163 (a), when the small hit game is started, the first attacker opens shortly a plurality of times (for example, twice).

  As shown in FIG. 163 (a), when the small hit symbol is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 or the second special figure display device 214, the small hit game is started at the timing of i01. At this time, a signal indicating a special game is turned ON, and, for example, a small hit game start effect is started.

  Thereafter, when the small hit game start effect ends and the timing of i02 is reached, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable winning opening 234a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 in-operation signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set. After the first door member 2341a is opened at the timing of i02, the first door member 2341a is temporarily closed when a predetermined first big winning opening 1 opening time (for example, 0.5 seconds) elapses, and thereafter When the first grand prize winning opening 1 closing time (for example, 0.5 seconds) elapses, the open state is resumed. After that, when a predetermined second big winning opening 1 opening time (for example, 0.5 seconds) elapses, it is closed at the timing of i03. In addition, the 1st big winning opening 1 opening time and the 2nd big winning opening 1 opening time may be the same time, and may be different time. Further, the first closing time 1 closing time may be the same time as the first closing time 1 opening time or may be a different time. Further, the first closing time 1 closing time may be the same time as the second closing time 1 opening time or may be a different time.

  On the other hand, when a predetermined production area solenoid drive start time (for example, 0.1 seconds) elapses from the timing i02, the production area solenoid is driven and the production area shutter allows the game ball to enter the production discharge passage. Displace to the state. The effect area shutter maintains a state in which the game ball is allowed to enter the effect discharge passage until a predetermined effect area release time (for example, 0.5 seconds) elapses. It shifts to a state that prevents the game ball from entering the discharge passage. Since the effect area shutter operates as described above, in the small hit game, even if the game ball enters the first variable winning opening 234a, before the game ball enters the effect discharge passage. The effect area shutter is in a state of preventing entry into the effect discharge passage.

  After the timing of i03, when the post-round closing time described above elapses and the timing of i04 is reached, the special winning opening 1 operating signal is turned OFF. The closing time after the round in the small hit game may be the same time as the closing time after the round in the big hit game, or may be a different time. Again, the period from i03 to i04 is the remaining sphere detection period.

  After the timing of i04, when a predetermined small hit end interval time (for example, 0.1 second) elapses and the timing of i05 is reached, the period of the big winning opening 1 valid state ends. At this time, for example, a small hit game end effect is started.

  Thereafter, at the timing of i06, the small hit game end effect ends, and the small hit game ends. At this time, the signal indicating the special game is turned off.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 163 (b), an example of the operation in the jackpot game will be described. In other words, in the example shown in FIG. 163 (b), when the big hit game is started, the first attacker opens shortly a plurality of times (for example, twice) and then opens long. Yes.

  As shown in FIG. 163 (b), when the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed on the first special graphic display device 212 or the second special graphic display device 214, the big hit game is started at the timing of j01. At this time, a signal indicating a special game is turned ON, and, for example, a big hit game start effect is started. Here, the content of the big hit game start effect to be started may be the same as, for example, the above-described small hit game start effect, and in this way, the player is asked whether the game is a big hit game or a small hit game. You may be able to improve your interest by having a sense of expectation.

  Thereafter, when the big hit game start effect is finished and the timing of j02 is reached, the first round (round RN) starts, the solenoid SOL1 is turned ON, and the first door member 2341a of the first variable winning opening 234a is closed. Displace from the state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal and the special winning opening 1 in-operation signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 1 valid state is set. After the first door member 2341a is opened at the timing of j02, it is once closed when the above-mentioned first big prize opening 1 opening time has elapsed, and then the first big prize opening 1 described above. When the closing time elapses, it is opened again. After that, when the above-mentioned second grand prize opening 1 opening time elapses, the timing becomes j03 and the closed state is reached, and then a predetermined second big prize opening 1 closing time (for example, 3 seconds) elapses. At the timing of j04, the open state is resumed.

  On the other hand, when the above-described effect area solenoid drive start time elapses from the timing of j02, the effect area solenoid is driven and the effect area shutter is shifted to a state in which the game ball is allowed to enter the effect discharge passage. When the above-described effect area release time elapses, the effect area shutter is temporarily closed, and then when the above-described effect area solenoid drive start time elapses after the first attacker is opened at the timing of j04, The effect area solenoid is driven, and the effect area shutter is again displaced to allow the game ball to enter the effect discharge passage.

Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied, the solenoid SOL1 is turned OFF at the timing of j05, and the first door member 2341a is displaced from the open state to the closed state. At this time, the special winning opening 1 release signal is also turned OFF. Thereafter, when the closing time after the round described above elapses and the timing becomes j06, the signal indicating that the winning prize opening 1 is in operation is turned OFF, and the round RN ends. Similarly, the period from j05 to j06 is the remaining sphere detection period. On the other hand, when a predetermined time (for example, 0.1 second) elapses from the timing of j06, the effect area shutter is turned off so that the effect area solenoid is turned off and the game ball is prevented from entering the effect discharge passage.

  After the timing of j06, when the above-described interval time between rounds has elapsed, j07 is reached and the next round (round RO) starts. At this time, the period of the big winning opening 1 valid state ends, and the solenoid SOL2 is turned ON, and the shutter member 2351a of the second variable winning opening 235a is displaced from the closed state to the open state. At this time, the special winning opening 2 release signal and the special winning opening 2 operating signal are turned ON, and the period of the special winning opening 2 valid state is set.

  As described above, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 163 (b), the effect area shutter operates as described above. Therefore, in the big hit game, the game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a becomes the effect discharge passage. It becomes easy to enter, and for example, it is possible to execute an effect informing that a big hit is triggered by the passage of the game ball to the effect V passing switch provided in the effect discharge passage.

In the description of FIGS. 159 to 163, the period between timings such as ON / OFF of each signal is not limited to that illustrated. For example, the length of one of the above periods may be the same as the length of another period other than the one period, or may be longer than the other period other than the one period. There may be a shorter period than other periods other than the one period. Each timing may be included in one period and other periods other than the one period.
[Embodiment 12]

  A twelfth embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above. Note that the pachinko machine 100 in the present embodiment is described as an example provided with the attacker unit 2340 shown in FIG. 124, but of course, the present invention is also implemented in the pachinko machine 100 provided with the game board 200 as shown in FIG. Forms can also be applied.

  FIG. 164 (a) shows an example of the special symbol jackpot stoppage pattern and the action pattern of the attacker for each round in the pachinko machine of the twelfth embodiment, and FIG. 164 (b) shows a big hit in the jackpot game. An example of the specific operation | movement pattern of a winning opening (variable winning opening) is shown.

  As shown in FIG. 164 (a), the jackpot symbols in the pachinko machine of the twelfth embodiment are “symbol 1” to “symbol 9”, “symbol A”, “symbol C”, “symbol E” and “symbol F”. ]. Among them, the jackpot symbols of Special Figure 1 are “symbol 1” to “symbol 9”, “symbol A”, “symbol C”, “symbol E”, and “symbol F”. , “Design 1”. In the present embodiment, the operation pattern of the big winning opening in the big hit game differs depending on the big hit symbol. In addition, both the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 can display a lost symbol or a small hit symbol. In addition, you may not provide a small hit. In addition, the jackpot symbol of the special symbol 2 may be able to display symbols other than “symbol 1”.

  As shown in FIG. 164 (b), nine types of operation patterns of the special winning opening are prepared, and the operation of the special winning opening for each round is based on any one of these operation patterns.

  In the case of a big hit with “symbol 1”, the first variable prize opening 234a (first attacker) is opened for a maximum of 29 seconds in the first to thirteenth and fifteenth rounds, and then the closing time after the round (closing) It closes for 1.9 seconds as state 1), and then closes for 0.1 seconds as interval time between rounds (closed state 2) (pattern 6). In the 14th and 16th rounds, the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) was opened for 29 seconds.

After that, it is closed for 1.9 seconds as the closing time after the round, and further, it is closed for 0.1 seconds as the interval time between rounds (pattern 9). In other words, “symbol 1” is a symbol indicating that a large number of game balls are 16 round big hits that can be entered into the variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 16 rounds. Also, in the 14th and 16th rounds, the second attacker becomes long open, and it becomes easy for the game ball to pass through the V passing switch SW2. It is a design. In the present embodiment, the jackpot game started by displaying “symbol 1” can be said to be an example of a third jackpot game.

  In the case of a big hit with “symbol 2”, the attacker operates according to the pattern 6 described above in the first to thirteenth and fifteenth rounds. In the 14th round, the second variable prize opening 235a (second attacker) opened for 0.5 seconds, closed for 3 seconds, and opened for 28 seconds, and then closed for 1.9 seconds as the closing time after the round. After that, it is closed for 0.1 seconds as an interval time between rounds (pattern 8). In the sixteenth round, the attacker operates according to the pattern 9 described above. In other words, “symbol 2” is a symbol indicating that a large number of game balls are a 16-round big hit that can be entered into the variable winning opening in any round from 1 round to 16 rounds.

  FIG. 165 (a) shows an example of the effect pattern in the jackpot game executed by the pachinko machine of the twelfth embodiment, and FIG. 165 (b) shows an example of the effect content for each round. Is.

  As shown in FIG. 165 (a), in the pachinko machine 100 of the twelfth embodiment, nine effect patterns of patterns 01 to 09 are prepared, and any one of these patterns is executed in the big hit game. It is configured to be. Which production pattern is selected is based on, for example, jackpot symbols and lottery.

  The effect pattern of pattern 01 is an effect pattern that may be executed in a jackpot game that has been transferred with a special figure indicating that it is a jackpot that is not scheduled to be acquired.

  When the effect pattern of pattern 01 is executed, for example, a combination of decorative symbols promised to be a special jackpot (for example, “decoration 3”-“decoration 3”) in the variation display of the ornamental symbol that is a big hit -A combination of decorative symbols other than "decoration 3" decorative symbols: a combination of probable big hit symbols) (for example, "decoration 4"-"decoration 4"-a combination of decorative symbols of "decoration 4": non-probable) Temporary stop display at a combination of jackpot symbols) ((1) decorative symbol temporary stop effect). After that, the promotion effect as described above is executed as the effect content of “buzz 1” ((2) turn 1 (design promotion) effect). After that, as a result of the promotion effect, stop display (determined display) is again performed with the combination of the non-probable change big winning symbol ((3) chance 1 (promotion success / failure) effect).

  In the pattern 01, after the big hit start effect is first executed ((4) big hit start effect), the offense / defense effect where the ally character and the enemy character confront each other is performed as the effect content of “Burn 2” ((5 ) Skill 2 (offense and defense) production). After that, as a result of the offense / defense effect, the enemy character is attacked by the enemy character, and the effect of losing the defense and defeating is performed ((6) chance 2 (win / loss) effect). Thereafter, as the contents of the production of “Ruri 3”, a survival restoration effect is produced that directs whether or not the defeated ally character succeeds in survival ((7) Brilliance 3 (Rebirth) production). Thereafter, as a result of the revival effect, an effect in which the ally character fails to revive is performed ((8) chance 3 (success / failure success) effect). After that, the effect of 1 during the big hit is performed as the effect during the big hit ((9) effect during the big hit). The content of the effect during the big hit can be an appropriate content, but in the present embodiment, for example, the content of the effect indicates that there is a high possibility that the game will be in an uncertain change state after the big hit game. After that, the jackpot end effect 1 is performed as the jackpot game end effect executed after the jackpot game ends ((15) jackpot end effect). The content of the big hit end 1 can be set as appropriate, but in this embodiment, for example, it is notified that the game will shift to the electric support state (special low probability normal figure high probability state) after the big hit game ends. The contents are directed.

  The effect pattern of pattern 02 is an effect pattern that may be executed in a jackpot game that has been transferred with a special figure indicating that it is a jackpot that is not scheduled to be acquired.

  In the case where the effect pattern of pattern 02 is executed, for example, temporary stop display with a combination of non-probable big hit symbols is performed in the variation display of the decorative symbols that are big hits ((1)

Decoration design temporary stop production). After that, the promotion effect as described above is executed as the effect content of “buzz 1” ((2) turn 1 (design promotion) effect). After that, as a result of the promotion effect, stop display (determined display) is again performed with the combination of the non-probable change big winning symbol ((3) chance 1 (promotion success / failure) effect).

  In the pattern 02, after the big hit start effect is first executed ((4) big hit start effect), the above-mentioned attack / defense effect is performed as the effect content of “Ruri 2” ((5) Beat 2 (offense / defense) effect) ). After that, as a result of the offense / defense effect, the enemy character is attacked by the enemy character, and the effect of losing the defense and defeating is performed ((6) chance 2 (win / loss) effect). Thereafter, the above-described effect 1 during the big hit is performed as the effect during the big hit ((9) effect during the big hit). Thereafter, the jackpot end 1 effect described above is performed as the jackpot game end effect executed after the jackpot game ends ((15) jackpot end effect).

  The effect pattern of pattern 03 is an effect pattern that may be executed in a jackpot game that has been transferred with a special figure indicating that it is a jackpot scheduled to be acquired with certainty.

  When the effect pattern of pattern 03 is executed, a temporary stop display is performed with a combination of non-probable big hit symbols, for example, in the variation display of the decorative symbol that is a big hit ((1) decorative symbol temporary stop effect). After that, the promotion effect as described above is executed as the effect content of “buzz 1” ((2) turn 1 (design promotion) effect). After that, as a result of the promotion effect, stop display (determined display) is again performed with the combination of the non-probable change big winning symbol ((3) chance 1 (promotion success / failure) effect).

  In pattern 03, after the jackpot start effect is first executed ((4) jackpot start effect), the above-described attack / defense effect is performed as the effect content of “Burn 2” ((5) Beat 2 (offense / defense) effect) ). After that, as a result of the offense / defense effect, the enemy character is attacked by the enemy character, and the effect of losing the defense and defeating is performed ((6) chance 2 (win / loss) effect). After that, the above-mentioned survival return effect is performed as the content of the “Ruri 3” effect ((7) Ruri 3 (survival) effect). Thereafter, as a result of the revival effect, an effect in which the ally character fails to revive is performed ((8) chance 3 (success / failure success) effect). Thereafter, the above-described effect 1 during the big hit is performed as the effect during the big hit ((9) effect during the big hit). Thereafter, a resurrection character appearance effect that a resurrection character appears and a chance is obtained is performed ((10) chance 4 (resurrection character) effect). When the revival character effect is performed, the player may be able to recognize that the big hit game being executed is a special big hit game. After that, the acquisition display indicating that the chance has been acquired is continuously displayed until the round in which the second attacker is long open ((11) chance acquisition effect). After that, in the round immediately before the first round in which the second attacker becomes long open, as an instruction content of “Instruction 1”, an instruction is given to instruct the game ball to pass through the V passage 2340g in the next round. An effect is executed ((12) hitting instruction 1 effect). Thereafter, in the round in which the second attacker is first released long, the effect of instructing the game ball to pass through the V path 2340g is executed as the content of the “instruction 2” ((13) strike Direction instruction 2). Thereafter, when the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW2, an effect indicating that the V prize has been won is executed ((14) V winning effect). Thereafter, as a jackpot game end effect executed after the jackpot game is ended, a jackpot end 2 effect is performed ((15) jackpot end effect). The content of the effect of the big hit end 2 can be an appropriate content, but in the present embodiment, for example, an effect of notifying that the state will shift to a probable change state (special figure high probability normal figure high probability state) after the big hit game ends. It is a content.

  The effect pattern of pattern 04 is an effect pattern that may be executed in a jackpot game that has been transferred with a special figure indicating that it is a jackpot scheduled to be acquired with certainty.

  In the case where the effect pattern of pattern 04 is executed, temporary stop display with a combination of non-probable big hit symbols, for example, is performed in the variation display of the decorative symbol that is a big hit ((1) decorative symbol temporary stop effect).

Then, at the timing of FIG. 167 (20), one effect during the big hit is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 with the contents of the effect after progress. That is, it can be said that the video in one production during the big hit is progressing behind the scenes. By being configured in this way, for example, in the first to third rounds, one effect is performed during the big hit, and in the fourth round and thereafter, promotion effects such as an offense and defense effect and a survival effect are executed, while the big hit 1 It is also possible to cause the production to proceed internally, and then to resume one production during the big hit with the content of the production after the eighth round. It should be noted that one production during the big hit may be started at the timing of FIG. 167 (20). The same applies to the 2 effects during the big hit, which will be described later. In the present embodiment, when the second variable winning opening 235a is in the 14th round, which is short-opened, the 13th round is displayed on the center upper part of the decorative symbol display device 208 as shown in FIG. 167 (22). The number of rounds displayed is cleared. In the following description, the round number display corresponds to the first effect. Here, it can be said that the display of the number of rounds is an example of an effect related to the big hit round. Then, as shown in FIGS. 167 (22) to 167 (24), the round number display is continuously erased until the big hit game is finished. In the present embodiment, by eliminating the round number display in the round in which the second variable prize opening 235a is short-opened, it is possible to obscure rounds that may pass V, for example, a revival effect is performed. In some cases, it is possible to improve interest by giving a sense of expectation for passing V. The round number display may be erased only in the 14th and 16th rounds opened by the second attacker, and the round number may be displayed in the 15th round. Further, the round number display may not be deleted. Further, the round number display may not be deleted.

  When the 16th round is over, as shown in FIG.

Will be performed. In the jackpot game mentioned above, the third game condition was not satisfied because there was no V passing in the 14th or 16th round, so after the jackpot game ended (after satisfying the third requirement) In addition, while the symbol variation display is performed a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times), the electronic support state (the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state) is entered.

  Thus, according to this embodiment, it can be said that the first effect is an effect that can be executed at least in the fourth period, and the first effect is not executed at least in the fifth period. It can be said that it is production. It can also be said that the first effect is an effect executed in at least a part of the fourth period.

  The first effect is not limited to the display of the number of rounds, and various effects related to the big hit round may be applied. For example, the effect may be an audio output at the start of the round. Further, only one of the effects related to the multiple types of big hit rounds may be the first effect, or two or more of the effects related to the multiple types of big hit rounds may be set as the first effect. All of the effects related to the type of big hit round may be the first effects.

  FIG. 168 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect example in the pachinko machine according to the twelfth embodiment, and FIG. 169 is a diagram illustrating a continuation of the specific effect example illustrated in FIG. 168. The effect examples shown in FIGS. 168 to 169 show an example of the effect pattern of the pattern 05 among the nine effect patterns shown in FIG. 165. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses. Since the effects shown in FIGS. 168 (1) to 168 (18) are the same as those shown in FIGS. 166 (1) to 166 (18) and described above, the description thereof is omitted here. In the example of production shown in FIGS. 168 (1) to 168 (18), as shown in FIG. 168 (10), “symbol 1”, which is a 16-round big hit symbol, is displayed on the first special figure display device 212. It is different from the example effects shown in FIGS. 166 (1) to 166 (18) in that the jackpot game is started after being stopped.

  When the chance button 136 is pressed at the timing shown in FIG. 168 (18) during execution of the above-mentioned survival effect, as shown in FIG. 169 (19), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the main character is cut. The effect of the content displayed by the IN is executed, and then, as shown in FIG. 169 (20), the decorative symbol display device 208 executes the effect display indicating that the survival was successful. In addition, when an effect display indicating that the survival is successful is started, the above-described acquisition display is displayed in the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. This acquisition display is continued until the 14th round is started, as shown in FIGS. 169 (20) to 169 (23). Thereby, it is notified that the current big hit game is a big hit where the third game condition is likely to be established. In addition, the display start timing of the acquisition display may be simultaneous with the start timing of the effect display that the survival is successful, or may be after the start of the effect display that the survival is successful, It may be before the start of the effect display indicating that the survival was successful.

  Thereafter, in the sixth round to the twelfth round, as shown in FIGS. 169 (21) to 169 (22), the two hits during the big hit are performed. Note that the start timing of the big hit effect may be simultaneous with the start of the round (for example, the sixth round), or may be after the start of the round.

  Thereafter, when the big hit game progresses and becomes the 13th round, as shown in FIG. 169 (23), the above-described hitting instruction 1 effect is executed. In other words, as shown in FIG. 169 (23), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the 13th round of the jackpot game, and allows V to pass in the next round, that is, the 14th round. “Aim at V at next R” is displayed. This gives the player a V in the next round.

In some cases, the passage can be performed reliably. Note that the start timing of the hitting instruction 1 production may be the same as the start of the 13th round, may be before the start of the 13th round, or after the start of the 13th round. There may be.

  Thereafter, when the 14th round is reached, the second variable prize opening 235a is opened long and the V passage is easy, and the decorative symbol display device 208 is the 14th round as shown in FIG. 169 (24). Is displayed, and a hitting instruction 2 effect “V Aim” for promoting the passage of V is executed. In addition, the start timing of the hitting instruction 2 production may be simultaneous with the start of the 14th round, may be before the start of the 14th round, or after the start of the 14th round. There may be. In this embodiment, when the 14th and 16th rounds are long open, the display of the number of rounds is not erased, so the player may be surely notified of the current number of rounds. is there. The round number display may be deleted after the 14th round.

  When the game ball passes (V passing) to the V passing switch SW2 in the second variable winning opening 235a at the timing shown in FIG. 169 (25), as shown in FIG. 169 (26), V An effect of winning a prize is executed. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. As shown in FIGS. 169 (26) to 169 (28), this effect is continuously performed until the 16th round is completed. In this example, if there is a V passage at the 14th round, the two effects during the big hit may be resumed at the 15th and 16th rounds.

  When the 16th round is completed, as shown in FIG. 169 (29), the above-described effect of the big hit end 2 is performed. In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition is satisfied because V passed in the 14th round. Therefore, after the jackpot game ends (after the third requirement is satisfied), a predetermined number of times (for example, , 150 times) while the symbol variation display is performed, the state changes to the probability variation state (special figure high probability normal figure high probability state).

  Thus, according to the present embodiment, it can be said that the first effect is an effect that can be executed at least in the sixth period.

  In the production example shown in FIG. 171, for example, when there is a V passage in the 14th round in which the second variable prize opening 235a is short-opened, the above-described production of winning the V prize is not performed. In the 16th round, the above-mentioned direction-of-play instruction 2 effect is executed, and when the V variable is passed in the 16th round when the second variable prize opening 235a is long open, the effect that the V prize is won is performed for the first time. Also good. Further, for example, when V passes in the 14th round in which the second variable winning opening 235a is short-opened, an effect that the V winning is performed is performed, but the direction instruction 2 effect is further executed in the 16th round. It may be.

  170 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect example in the pachinko machine according to the twelfth embodiment, and FIG. 171 is a diagram illustrating a continuation of the specific effect example illustrated in FIG. 170. The effect examples shown in FIGS. 170 to 171 show an example of the effect pattern of the pattern 03 among the nine effect patterns shown in FIG. 165. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses. Since the effects shown in FIGS. 170 (1) to 171 (22) are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 166 (1) to 167 (22), description thereof is omitted here. 170 (1) to 171 (22), as shown in FIG. 170 (10), “symbol 3”, which is a big 15-hit symbol on the first special figure display device 212, is displayed. Is displayed in a stopped state and the big hit game is started, which is different from the production examples shown in FIGS. 166 (1) to 167 (22). Also in this production example, the second variable winning award 235a is short.

When the 14th round is released, the display of the number of rounds displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 up to the 13th round is erased and continued until the big hit game is completed.

  FIG. 171 (23) shows the contents of the effect in the 15th round. As shown in FIG. 171 (23), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the above-mentioned revival character effect is executed, and then, for example, a hitting instruction 1 effect as shown in FIG. 169 (23) is executed. The start timing of the resurrection character production may be the same as the start of the 15th round, may be before the start of the 15th round, or after the start of the 15th round. Also good.

  After that, at the 16th round, the second variable prize opening 235a is opened long and the V passing is easy, and the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 2 productions are performed.

  Then, at the timing shown in FIG. 171 (25), if there is a game ball passing (V passing) to the V passing switch SW2 in the second variable prize winning opening 235a, as shown in FIG. 171 (26), V An effect of winning a prize is executed. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. This effect is continued until the 16th round is completed. In the present embodiment, the round number display is erased also in the 15th and 16th rounds when the attacker opens long, but the round number display is erased in the 14th round, and the 15th and 16th rounds are erased. The eyes may redisplay the number of rounds.

  When the 16th round is completed, as shown in FIG. 171 (27), the effect of the big hit end 2 described above is performed. In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition is satisfied due to the passing of V in the 16th round. Therefore, after the jackpot game ends (after the third requirement is satisfied), a predetermined number of times (for example, , 150 times) while the symbol variation display is performed, the state changes to the probability variation state (special figure high probability normal figure high probability state).

  Thus, according to this embodiment, it can be said that the first effect is an effect that can be executed at least in the fourth period, and the first effect is not executed at least in the fifth period. It can be said that it is production. It can also be said that the first effect is an effect executed in at least a part of the fourth period.

  FIG. 172 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect example in the pachinko machine according to the twelfth embodiment, and FIG. 173 is a diagram illustrating a continuation of the specific effect example illustrated in FIG. 172. The effect examples shown in FIGS. 172 to 173 show an example of the effect pattern of the pattern 05 among the nine effect patterns shown in FIG. 165. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses. Note that the effects shown in FIGS. 172 (1) to 173 (24) are the same as those shown in FIGS. 168 (1) to 169 (24) and are not described here.

  FIG. 173 (24) shows the contents of the effect in the 14th round. As shown in FIG. 173 (24), at the 14th round, the second variable prize opening 235a is opened long and the V passage is easy, and the decorative symbol display device 208 is shown in FIG. 173 (24). As described above, the display indicating that it is the 14th round is performed, and the above-described hitting instruction 2 effect is executed.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 173 (25), when the 14th round is completed without passing the game ball to the V pass switch SW2, the process proceeds to the 15th round as shown in FIG. 173 (26). However, the hitting instruction 2 effect described above is continuously performed. In this embodiment,

At least some of the productions of several types are switched in the production content triggered by the fact that the round is switched. In this production example, this production instruction 2 production is triggered even if the round is switched. It is an example of what does not change the production contents.

  FIG. 173 (27) shows the content of the effect in the 16th round. As shown in FIG. 173 (27), at the 16th round, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened long, and the V passage is easy. On the other hand, in the decorative symbol display device 208, even when the 16th round is entered, the above-described hitting instruction 2 effect continues to be performed.

  If there is a game ball passing (V passing) to the V passing switch SW2 in the second variable winning opening 235a at the timing shown in FIG. 173 (28), as shown in FIG. 173 (29), V An effect of winning a prize is executed. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. This effect is continued until the 16th round is completed.

  When the 16th round is completed, as shown in FIG. 173 (30), the effect of the big hit end 2 described above is performed. In the above jackpot game, there was no V pass in the 14th round, but the V game pass in the 16th round resulted in the third gaming condition, so after the jackpot game ended (third requirement ) Is satisfied, while the symbol variation display is performed a predetermined number of times (for example, 150 times), the state changes to the probability variation state (special figure high probability normal figure high probability state).

  FIG. 174 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the twelfth embodiment. The effect example shown in FIG. 174 shows an example of the effect pattern of pattern 07 among the nine effect patterns shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 174 (14), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the above-described successful attack effect is performed, and the above-described acquired display is displayed in the lower right corner. Thereby, it is notified that the current big hit game is a big hit where the third game condition is likely to be established. The start timing of the successful attack production may be simultaneous with the start of the fourth round, may be before the start of the fourth round, or after the start of the fourth round. Also good. Further, the display start timing of the acquisition display may be simultaneous with the start of the successful attack presentation, may be before the start of the successful attack presentation, or after the start of the successful attack presentation. Also good.

  Thereafter, in the fifth to twelfth rounds, as shown in FIG. Thereafter, for example, the same effects as in FIGS. 169 (21) to 169 (29) are performed.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the presence / absence of the performance and the execution mode of the performance differ depending on the timing at which it is notified that the third game condition is likely to be a special big hit. For example, there is a case where an accessory moves and a case where it does not move depending on the timing at which it is notified that it is a special big hit, and the type of the movable accessory may be different. Further, there are cases where an effect of operating the chance button 136 is executed depending on the timing when it is notified that it is a special big hit, and there is a case where it is not executed.

  FIG. 175 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the twelfth embodiment. The example of an effect shown in FIG. 175 shows a state in which an enemy character displayed in a certain variation state at 16R special big hit is selected, for example. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses.

  FIG. 175 (1) shows a state where a jackpot game of 16 round special jackpot is being executed. FIG. 175 (1) shows the content of the effect in the tenth round. In the present embodiment, at the 10th round, it becomes possible to select an enemy character displayed in the probability variation state. As shown in FIG. 175 (1), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the above-mentioned acquisition display is displayed in the lower right corner, and this big hit game is a big hit game in which the third game condition is easily established. It has been reported. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 175 (1), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the text “Please select a character” to promote the selection of enemy characters. On the left side, a character list CL is displayed. In the character list CL, items of character A, character B, and character C are displayed in a list in the vertical direction, and the player can move the cursor CSL by operating a cursor key (not shown), for example. it can. The item indicated by the cursor CSL may be changed every predetermined time. In FIG. 175 (1), the cursor CSL indicates the character A, and the item of the character A is highlighted. The start timing of the enemy character selection effect can be set arbitrarily.

  When the chance button 136 is pressed at the timing shown in FIG. 175 (2), as shown in FIG. 175 (3), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs a character selection effect indicating that the character A is selected. Is done. At this time, a sound notifying that the character A has been selected is output from the speaker 120. Note that the start timing of the character selection effect indicating that the character A is selected may be the same as or different from the output timing of the sound for notifying that the character A is selected. Also, audio output may not be performed. Character selection effects are continuously performed until the big hit game is completed, as shown in FIGS. 175 (3) to 175 (8).

  After that, when the big hit game progresses and becomes the 14th round, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened long, and the V passing is easy, and the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 175 (4). In addition, a display indicating that it is the 14th round is performed, and a hitting instruction 2 effect “V Aim” for promoting the passage of V is executed. Unlike the case of FIG. 169 (24), the hitting instruction 2 effect during the execution of the character selection effect is a mode in which the character display “V Aim” is displayed small in the lower center of the decorative symbol display device 208.

  Then, at the timing shown in FIG. 175 (5), the V-pass passage in the second variable prize winning opening 235a.

When there is a game ball passing (V passing) to the switch SW2, as shown in FIG. 175 (6), the effect of winning V is interrupted and executed. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. At this time, a sound for notifying that a V prize has been won is output from the speaker 120. It should be noted that the start timing of the effect indicating that the V prize has been won and the output timing of the sound for notifying that the V prize has been won may be the same or different. Also, audio output may not be performed. Further, the effect indicating that the V prize has been won may be displayed overlapping the character selection effect.

  Thereafter, at the 15th round, as shown in FIG. 175 (7), the character selection effect is resumed. At this time, for example, the character selection effect continues on the control while the effect of winning the V prize is performed. When the 15th round is reached, the character selection effect is resumed with the content after the progress. It has become so. When the character selection effect is resumed, it may be performed from the beginning of the effect. As shown in FIG. 175 (8), the character selection effect is executed until the 16th round is completed (until the big hit game is completed).

  When the 16th round is completed, as shown in FIG. 175 (9), the above-described effect of the big hit end 2 is performed. In the jackpot game described above, the third game condition is satisfied due to the passing of V in the 14th round. Therefore, after the jackpot game ends (after the third requirement is satisfied) It shifts to a high probability state (high probability state).

  When the big hit game is completed as described above, the state shifts to a probability change state (special figure high probability normal figure high probability state) and, as shown in FIG. 175 (10), the decorative symbol display device 208 is in a state of probability change. “Yoshimune mode” is executed, and “Defeating the enemy is a big hit” is displayed to explain the content of the big win. The character A that is the enemy character to be defeated is displayed. . At this time, since there was no hold of the variable display of the special figure 2 and there were three hold of the variable display of the special figure 1, the hold (the first hold) of the special figure 1 is digested, and the first special figure display device The symbol variation display 212 is started, and the decoration symbol display device 208 also starts the variation display of the decoration symbol. The decorative symbol is displayed in a variable manner at the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In addition, the remaining number of symbol variation displays in which the probability variation state can be executed is displayed at the upper center of the decorative symbol display device 208, and is decremented by one each time symbol variation display is started. In addition, at the timing shown in FIG. 175 (10), after the start of the symbol variation display, at least four game balls have been won at the second special diagram start port 232, and the variation display of the four special diagrams 2 has been suspended. Therefore, all four holding lamps in the second special figure holding lamp 220 are lit. On the right side of the decorative symbol display device 208, the first special figure 2 hold display h21, the second special figure 2 hold display h22, the third special figure 2 hold display h23, and the fourth special figure 2 hold display are displayed. h24 is provided. At the timing shown in FIG. 175 (10), since the fluctuation display of the four special figures 2 is held, the first special figure 2 hold display h21 to the fourth special figure 2 hold display h24 are all default displays. The hold display in the aspect is performed. In addition, the display of the number of consecutive chunks and the display for instructing a right-hand hit which have been displayed in the big hit game are continued.

  FIG. 176 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the twelfth embodiment. The effect example shown in FIG. 176 shows a state in which, for example, an enemy character that is displayed in a probabilistic state at 16R special big hit is selected. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses.

  FIG. 176 (1) shows a state in which a jackpot game of 16 round special jackpot is being executed. The effect shown in FIG. 176 (1) is the same as that shown in FIG. 175 (1) and described above.

  FIG. 176 (2) shows the contents of the effect when the big hit game progresses and becomes the 14th round. In this effect example, the enemy character has not yet been selected, and therefore the effect shown in FIG. 176 (1) is continuously executed. In the fourteenth round, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened long, and the V passing is easy, and the decorative symbol display device 208 executes the above-described hitting instruction instruction 2 effect. This striking method instruction 2 effect is a mode in which the character display “V Aim” is displayed small in the lower center of the enemy character selection screen that is being continued.

  Then, at the timing shown in FIG. 176 (3), if there is a passing of a game ball (V passing) to the V passing switch SW2 in the second variable winning opening 235a, as shown in FIG. 176 (4), V The effect of winning is interrupted and executed on the enemy character selection screen. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. At this time, a sound for notifying that a V prize has been won is output from the speaker 120. In addition, the CPU 404 of the first sub-control unit 400 can accept the operation of the cursor key and the chance button 136 related to the selection of the enemy character even during the execution of the effect indicating that the V prize is won. That is, even if the enemy character selection screen is not displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208, the position of the cursor CSL can be changed by internal control using a cursor key or the like, and internal control can be performed by operating the chance button 136. The item indicated by can be selected. The effect of winning the V prize may be displayed overlapping the enemy character selection screen.

  Thereafter, although not displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208, the chance button at the timing shown in FIG. 176 (5) in the state where the cursor CSL indicates the character A in the internal control by the CPU 404 of the first sub-control unit 400. When 136 is pressed, as shown in FIG. 176 (6), a character selection effect that character A is selected from speaker 120 is executed. On the other hand, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the effect of winning the V prize is continuously performed even though the chance button 136 is operated. Note that the effect of winning the V prize may be displayed overlapping the character selection effect. In addition, when the chance button 136 is pressed, the display may be switched from the effect of winning the V prize to the character selection effect.

  Thereafter, effects as shown in FIGS. 176 (7) to 176 (10) are performed. The effects shown in FIGS. 176 (7) to 176 (10) are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 175 (7) to 175 (10), and the description thereof will be omitted.

  FIG. 177 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the twelfth embodiment. The effect example shown in FIG. 177 shows a state in which, for example, an enemy character that is displayed in a probable change state at 16R special big hit is selected. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses. The effects shown in FIGS. 177 (1) to 177 (6) are the same as those described above with reference to FIGS. 176 (1) to 176 (6), and the description thereof will be omitted.

  FIG. 177 (7) shows the contents of the effect in the 15th round. In this effect example, after the effect of winning the V prize is performed, as shown in FIGS. 177 (7) to 177 (8), the game continues until the 16th round is completed (until the big hit game is completed). The character selection effect described above is not executed.

  When the 16th round is completed, as shown in FIG. 177 (9), the above-described effect of the big hit end 2 is performed. In the jackpot game mentioned above, there was a V pass in the 14th round.

As a result, the third game condition is established, and after the big hit game is completed (after the third requirement is satisfied), the state shifts to a probability change state (special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state).

When the big hit game is completed as described above, the state shifts to a probability change state (a special figure high probability normal figure high probability state), and an effect as shown in FIG. 177 (10) is executed. The effect shown in FIG. 177 (10) is the same as that shown in FIG. 175 (10) and described above.
[Embodiment 13]

  A thirteenth embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above. Note that the pachinko machine 100 in the present embodiment is described as an example provided with the attacker unit 2340 shown in FIG. 124, but of course, the present invention is also implemented in the pachinko machine 100 provided with the game board 200 as shown in FIG. Forms can be applied. In the present embodiment, the general discharge passage (first discharge passage) for discharging the game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a and passed through the winning count switch SW4 is different from the general discharge passage. And an effect area shutter that is displaceable between a state that allows the game ball to enter the effect discharge passage and a state that prevents entry. The effect area shutter is configured to be displaceable by, for example, driving the effect area solenoid, and the effect area solenoid is configured to be driven and controlled by the first sub-control unit 400, for example. In addition, an effect V passage switch SW9 is provided in the effect discharge passage so that a game ball that has entered the effect discharge passage passes therethrough. Further, in this embodiment, a small hit is prepared, and when a small hit symbol is displayed on either the first special figure display device 212 or the second special figure display device 214, the game shifts to a small hit game. It is configured to be controllable. In the small hit game, for example, the operation described above with reference to FIG. 163 (a) is performed. In addition, at least one of the multiple types of big hit games is configured to be able to execute the operation described above with reference to, for example, FIG. 163 (b) in the first round.

  FIG. 178 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the thirteenth embodiment. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses.

  In FIG. 178 (a1), the symbol pattern (for example, the symbol pattern of 16R special jackpot) is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212, and “decoration 1” − “decoration star” is displayed on the ornament symbol display device 208. A combination of decorative symbols (chance symbols) such as “mark”-“decoration 1” is stopped (determined). Further, the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 are stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212, for example, in a red circle symbol corresponding to the stop display result. Note that the combination of decorative symbols shown in FIG. 178 (a1) may be displayed when the game is a big hit, or may be displayed when the game is a big hit. The timing for stopping the finalization of the decorative symbol and the special symbol may or may not be simultaneous. In FIG. 1, since there are three variable display holds, three lamps in the first special figure hold lamp 218 are lit, and the first special figure 1 hold display h11 and the second special figure 1 are displayed. The hold display h12 and the third special figure 1 hold display h13 are both displayed in the default display mode. On the other hand, on the second special symbol display device 214, the losing symbol is stopped and displayed, and the special symbol 2 and the fourth symbol t2 are also correspondingly stopped and displayed with, for example, a white square symbol. In addition, since the variable display hold of special figure 2 is 0, none of the second special figure hold lamps 220 is lit.

  When the big hit game is started and the first round is entered, as shown in FIG. 178 (a2), the big hit acquisition chance effect that the big hit is notified when the game ball passes the effect V passing switch SW9 is displayed. In the decorative symbol display device 208, for example, an arrow indicating the direction in which the first variable winning opening 234a (first attacker) is arranged together with the character information of “Get a chance when a ball enters V” is displayed. Display is performed. In the first round,

The first variable winning opening 234a performs a long opening after performing a plurality of short opening, and the game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a can easily enter the production discharge passage. The effect area shutter is driven and controlled.

  Then, at the timing shown in FIG. 178 (a3), when there is a passing of a game ball (effect V passing) to the effect V passing switch SW9 in the first variable winning opening 234a, as shown in FIG. 178 (a4). Then, the effect that the effect V has passed is executed. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the game has been shifted to the 16R special jackpot game.

  FIG. 178 (b1) also shows a state in which the symbol pattern (for example, the symbol pattern for 16R special jackpot) is stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212. The effect shown in FIG. 178 (b1) is the same as that shown in FIG. 178 (a1) and described above.

  When the big hit game is started and the process proceeds to the first round, as shown in FIG. 178 (b2), the above-mentioned big hit acquisition chance effect is executed.

  As shown in FIGS. 178 (b3) to 178 (b4), even when a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds) has elapsed without passing the game ball to the effect V passing switch SW9, FIG. As shown in b5), the effect that the effect V has passed is executed. In other words, in the jackpot game that has been displayed with the jackpot symbol pattern stopped and displayed, whether the game ball has passed or not passed through the effect V passing switch SW9. This effect is executed, and the player is informed that the game has been shifted to the jackpot game of 16R special jackpot.

  In FIG. 178 (c1), the small symbol pattern is stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212, and the decoration such as “decoration 1” — “decoration star” — “decoration 1” is displayed on the ornamental symbol display device 208. A combination of symbols (chance symbols) is stopped (determined). Further, the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 are stopped and displayed on the first special symbol display device 212, for example, in a green circle symbol corresponding to the stop display result. The timing for stopping the finalization of the decorative symbol and the special symbol may or may not be simultaneous.

  When the small hit game is started, as shown in FIG. 178 (c2), the big hit acquisition chance effect described above is executed. In the small hit game, the first variable winning opening 234a is only opened a plurality of times and is not opened a long time. The effect area shutter is driven and controlled so that the game ball that has entered the first variable prize winning opening 234a is unlikely to enter the effect discharge passage.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 178 (c3), when the small hit game is ended without passing the game ball to the effect V passing switch SW9, a small hit game end effect as shown in FIG. 178 (c4) is executed. The In the small hit game end effect, a character display of “sorry” indicating that the game has not shifted to the big hit game is displayed.

  FIG. 179 is a diagram illustrating an example of specific effects in the pachinko machine according to the thirteenth embodiment. The effect example shown in FIG. 179 shows a state of a big hit game with a 16R special big hit, for example. The following diagram shows how the production progresses in numerical order in parentheses.

  FIG. 179 (a1) shows a state in which a jackpot game of 16R special jackpot is being executed. FIG. 179 (a1) shows the contents of the effect in the sixth round. In addition, as shown in FIG. 179 (a1), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs a big hit effect. In the present embodiment, the sixth round is a round in which the first variable prize opening 234a is opened. Here, the round which the 2nd variable prize opening 235a opens may be sufficient.

  Thereafter, when the above-described round end condition is satisfied and the first variable prize opening 234a is closed, as shown in FIG. 179 (a2), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs an inter-round interval effect. In the inter-round interval effect, for example, a part of the round number display displayed at the upper center of the decorative symbol display device 208 is deleted, and only the letter “R” is displayed. Note that the round number display may be entirely deleted. Further, the number of rounds may be displayed in a form that is difficult to recognize. For example, the display form is gradually changed from “6R” indicating the sixth round to “7R” that is the seventh round. It may be. Thereafter, when the seventh round is started, as shown in FIG. 179 (a3), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “7R” indicating that it is the seventh round.

  FIG. 179 (b1) shows a state in which a jackpot game of 16R special jackpot is being executed. FIG. 179 (b1) shows the contents of effects in the sixth round. In addition, as shown in FIG. 179 (b1), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs a big hit effect. In this production example, the number of prize balls won by winning the attacker in the big hit game is displayed in the lower center of the decorative symbol display device 208. At the timing shown in FIG. 179 (b1), the text “795pt” indicating that 795 prize balls have been acquired is displayed.

Thereafter, when the 16th round ends, a big hit end effect is performed as shown in FIG. 179 (b2). In the big hit this time, the number of winning balls won by winning the attacker is 2430, so the character display “TOTAL: 2430pt” is displayed in the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. . Further, since the number of winning balls won by winning the attacker in this big hit has exceeded 2400, the character display of “2400 pt GET” is displayed on the upper part of the decorative symbol display device 208.
FIG. 180 is a front view of a sealed pachinko machine to which the present invention is applicable.

  In a sealed pachinko machine 900 shown in FIG. 180, a predetermined number of game media (for example, game balls) are circulated inside the game table. That is, the game medium launched from the launching means 901 to the game area 902 can be discharged from the game area 902 and supplied to the launching means 901 again. In addition, a display means 903 for displaying information on the number of game media (award balls, rental balls, total number of balls, etc.) and other information is disposed below the game area 902 on the front of the game table. The upper plate 126 and the lower plate 128 shown in 51 are not provided.

  As described above, the pachinko machine 900 shown in FIG. 180 encloses a sphere and circulates the enclosed sphere in the pachinko machine and uses the enclosed sphere as a launching sphere. May be executed by credit.

  In the embodiments described so far, the special jackpot in which the big hit game in which the second attacker is short-opened is executed and the special jackpot in which the big hit game in which the second attacker is not short-opened is executed. Although it is configured to be possible, it may be configured such that only a big hit game in which the second attacker opens shortly is executed. In other words, in the big hit game, the second attacker may be configured to always open short.

  In the embodiments described so far, the round in which the first attacker opens may or may not be included before the specific opening, and the round in which the first attacker opens may be included. In this case, the number of rounds set may be one or plural. In addition, a round that the first attacker opens after the specific opening may or may not be included, and the number of rounds that is set when the round that the first attacker opens is included is There may be one or more. In addition, the second in specific opening

A round in which the first attacker opens may or may not be included between the short opening of the attacker and the long opening of the second attacker, and the round in which the first attacker opens When included, the number of rounds set may be one or plural.

  In the embodiments described so far, the first attacker may not perform the short opening and the long opening in the same round. In the round in which the first attacker opens short, a plurality of short opens may be performed, or a plurality of short opens may not be performed in one round. Further, the first attacker may open only one round or a plurality of rounds. Further, the first attacker may perform short opening and long opening in the same round. The first attacker may be configured to be able to execute a big hit game constituted by a round in which short opening and long opening are performed, a round in which only short opening is performed, and a round in which only long opening is performed. Also, the short opening of the first attacker may not be performed.

  Moreover, in embodiment described so far, the open pattern of the 2nd special figure starting port 232 in non-electric support may be the same as the open pattern of the 2nd special figure start port 232 in electric support. And may be different. Further, the opening time of the second special figure starting port 232 during non-electric support and the opening time of the second special figure starting port 232 during electric support may be the same or different.

  Further, in the embodiment described so far, the passing of the game ball to the probability variation operation area may be valid for a part or all of the period of the winning prize opening 2 valid state, and invalidated outside the period. However, it may be effective outside the period. In this case, it may be invalid while the first attacker is open.

  In the embodiment described so far, the number of winning balls to an attacker in a single big hit game is equal to or more than a predetermined number (for example, when a round finish condition is satisfied when 10 attackers win a round) And in the case of a pachinko machine capable of 16 round games with one big hit game, if there are more than 30 surplus prizes (180 or more), it will be judged as a surplus prize error (over prize error) The notification to that effect may be performed. At this time, an error may be notified when a predetermined number or more of winnings have been made, or may be notified at the end of the big hit game. Also, for example, an error notification may be made at the timing when an effect indicating that there has been an overwinning as shown in FIG.

  In the embodiment described so far, in the small hit game, the same attacker as the opener in the first round of the big hit game is released, but a different attacker may be opened. For example, when the attacker opened in the first round of the big hit game is the first attacker not provided with the V pass switch SW2, the second attacker provided with the V pass switch SW2 is opened in the small hit game. You may do it. In this case, when the game ball enters the V-pass switch SW2, it may be shifted to the probability changing state after the small hit game is completed. At this time, if the execution time of the small hit game end effect is shorter than the execution time of the big hit game end effect, for example, a small hit game end effect that makes the player feel uncomfortable may be executed. Although the same effect as the big hit game end effect is executed, it may be ended in the middle of the effect. Further, even when a game ball enters the V-pass switch SW2 in the small hit game, it may be prevented from shifting to the probability changing state. Also, the opening / closing pattern of the attacker in the small hit game may be the same as or different from the opening / closing pattern of the attacker in the big hit game.

  In the embodiments described so far, the positions at which the first attacker and the second attacker are provided may be any positions in the game area, respectively, and the first attacker

The shapes of the mosquito and the second attacker can be made into appropriate shapes. For example, an attacker to which an open / close door such as a shutter shape that moves in the horizontal direction or intersecting with the board surface of the game board 200 may be applied, or the horizontal or intersecting direction with the board surface of the game board 200 is rotated. An attacker to which an open / close door such as a door shape tilting as an axis is applied may be used.

  Further, in the embodiments described so far, all the big hits may be special big hits scheduled to be acquired with certainty. Also, some of the big hits in the special figure 2 may be big hits that are not scheduled to be acquired with certainty.

  Also, in the embodiment described so far, in the case of a big hit game with a special jackpot scheduled to win a probability change, in the case of a big hit game with a jackpot that is not scheduled to get a probability change without deleting the round number display Alternatively, the round number display may be deleted. In addition, the round number display may be erased or may not be performed in a round in which an attacker (for example, the second attacker) provided with the V-pass switch SW2 is short-opened. Further, the round number display may be erased or may not be performed in a round in which an attacker (for example, the second attacker) provided with the V-pass switch SW2 is opened long. In addition, the round number display may be erased or not performed in a round in which an attacker (for example, the first attacker) that does not include the V-pass switch SW2 is short-opened. Further, the round number display may be erased or not performed in a round in which an attacker (for example, the first attacker) not provided with the V-pass switch SW2 is opened long.

  In the embodiments described so far, the big hit game in which the second attacker opens only one round may be executable. In this case, for example, when executing a special jackpot big hit game including a round in which the second attacker opens long, the number of rounds is displayed in the round opened by the second attacker, and the second attacker is short. When a special jackpot game including a round of opening and long opening is executed, the round number display is deleted in the round opened by the second attacker, and the second attacker only performs short opening. In the case of executing a big hit big hit game that does not include a special big hit, the round number display may be deleted in the round opened by the second attacker. Here, when a special jackpot big hit game including a round in which the second attacker performs short opening and long opening is executed, when the second attacker opens short in the round in which the second attacker opens. Alternatively, the round number display may be deleted, and then the round number may be displayed again when the second attacker opens long.

  Further, the embodiments described so far can also be applied to a pachinko machine that can execute the above-described winning order variation. In this case, for example, a jackpot game that is executed with a big hit in the special figure 1, and a special jackpot game including a round in which the second attacker opens short and a round in which the second attacker opens long is executed. In this case, the round number display is erased in both the round in which the second attacker opens shortly and the round in which the second attacker opens long, and the big hit game is executed with a big hit in FIG. In case of executing a jackpot game that is not a special jackpot including two rounds that the second attacker opens shortly, the round number display is deleted in both of the two rounds, When a jackpot game to be executed and a special jackpot game including two rounds in which the second attacker opens long, the two jackpot games are executed. It may not be performed to erase the display number of rounds in any of und.

  In the embodiments described so far, the number of rounds may be displayed only for the current number of rounds, the number of remaining rounds may be displayed, or the maximum number of rounds. And the current round number may be displayed together.

  In the embodiment described so far, the display mode of the jackpot decorative symbol displayed in the jackpot game may be the same as or different from the display mode of the decorative symbol displayed during the symbol variation display. It may be.

  Further, in the embodiments described so far, when displaying the number of winning balls acquired by winning the attacker in the jackpot game, the number of winning balls displayed is the number of winning balls acquired only in the jackpot game. Or, including the first jackpot, the number of winning balls (total number of winning balls) won in all jackpot jackpot games that occurred without going through the non-electric support state (special low probability normal figure low probability state) It may be. In this case, the number of winning balls acquired by the over winning as described above may or may not be included.

  Further, in the embodiments described so far, a display indicating that a right hit instruction is given during the big hit game may or may not be performed.

  In the embodiments described so far, instead of the character selection effect or together with the character selection effect, the music selection effect for selecting the music to be output as BGM in at least one of the big hit game and the probability variation state may be performed. Good. Further, the character selection effect and the music selection effect may be executed at least after being notified that the game is a special jackpot jackpot game, or before being notified that the game is a special jackpot jackpot game. Also good. Further, it may be executed in a big hit game that is not a special big hit.

  In the embodiments described so far, a jackpot game including three or more rounds opened by the second attacker may be executable. In this case, for example, a pachinko machine capable of executing a big hit game including three rounds opened by the second attacker, and the second attacker opens in the big hit game executed with a big hit in FIG. In one of the three rounds, the second attacker opens long, and in the other two rounds the second attacker opens short, while in the big hit game executed with big hit in Special Figure 2, The second attacker may be opened long in all three rounds opened by the second attacker.

  Further, in the embodiment described so far, the round configuration may be different between the jackpot game that has been hit and transferred in FIG. 1 and the jackpot game that has been hit and transferred in FIG. That is, for example, the round in which the second attacker opens may be different between the big hit game that has been hit by big hit in FIG. 1 and the big hit game that has been hit by big hit in FIG. In addition, when the configuration of the rounds is the same for the jackpot game that has been hit with a big hit in FIG. You may make it vary the round which an attacker substantially opens.

  Further, in the embodiments described so far, when the winning ball switch is passed after the remaining ball detection period elapses and before the attacker is released in the next round, there is an over winning as described above. You may make it perform the effect to the effect and the effect to win an attacker. Further, after passing the remaining ball detection period, when the V passing switch SW2 is passed until the next round and the attacker is released, the effect of winning the V prize may not be performed. Further, the V prize may be invalidated.

  Further, in the embodiment described so far, when the winning ball count switch is passed during the remaining ball detection period, the above-described effect indicating that there has been an over winning or the effect indicating that the attacker has been awarded may be performed. . Further, when the V passing switch SW2 is passed during the remaining ball detection period, an effect that a V prize has been made may be performed.

  Further, in the embodiment described so far, in the big hit game executed in the big hit in FIG. 2, the round number display may not necessarily be deleted. In other words, the number of rounds may be displayed in all rounds during the big hit game. Further, even during a continuous chain, in the big hit game executed with big hit in FIG. 1, the round number display may be deleted. Further, the display of the round number display may be performed continuously over a plurality of rounds or may be performed intermittently.

  Moreover, in embodiment described so far, you may be comprised so that both the above-mentioned probability change operation | movement area | region and the continuation area | region mentioned above may be provided. In this case, the attacker (first attacker) that does not have the probability variation operation region may have a continuation region, or the attacker (second attacker) that has the probability variation operation region may have the continuation region. Good.

  When the attacker (first attacker) that does not have the probability variation operation region is configured to have the continuation region, the attacker (second attacker) that has the probability variation operation region may be opened in the first round. In this case, for example, when the game ball that has entered the second attacker does not want to pass through the probability variation operation area, the second attacker may be opened short. Further, it may be configured such that an attacker (second attacker) having a probability changing operation area is long opened in a round executed at the end of the big hit game (final round) to make a V prize.

  In addition, when the attacker having the probability changing operation region (second attacker) has the continuation region, the attacker (first attacker) not having the probability changing operation region is opened long in the first round. Also good. In this case, the game ball cannot pass through the probability change operation area in the first round. Further, in a round in which an attacker (second attacker) having a probability variation operation region is opened, the game ball may be allowed to pass through either the probability variation operation region or the continuation region. The game ball may be allowed to pass through only one of the regions, or the game ball may not be allowed to pass through either the probability changing operation region or the continuation region.

  In addition, a continuation effect for notifying that when the continuation area is passed may be executed. In this case, the continuation effect may be executed simultaneously with the above-described effect of winning the V prize. An effect indicating that a V prize has been won may be executed later, or a continuous effect may be executed after an effect indicating that a V prize has been executed. At this time, the above-described over winning effect and the display of the number of winning prize balls may be performed simultaneously.

In the above description, the second attacker is described as being open short and long. However, the second attacker is long open and the V shutter 2352a is short open and long. The same can be applied to the one to be opened. That is, the operation example of the second attacker can be similarly applied to the V shutter.
In the above description,

“A symbol display means (for example, a first special symbol display device 212, a second special symbol display device 214) capable of at least performing symbol variation display;

A game stand characterized by that. Was explained.

  According to the conventional gaming table, it is difficult to balance the gaming state and the fluctuation time of the symbol variation, and even in the same period in the same gaming state, the player can change to the current situation that he expects. May feel uncomfortable, such as the fluctuation time being too long or too short, or the player may continue to anticipate the wrong situation.

  According to this gaming table, even in the same period in the same gaming state, the table used when determining the variation time may differ depending on other conditions. However, even if the tables are different, the variation time included in the tables is set to the same time or a similar time, so that the player feels uncomfortable with the variation time and the difference in performance contents according to the variation time. Can be made difficult to occur. On the other hand, if the variation time included in the table is varied to such an extent that the difference can be recognized, the player may be made aware of whether or not other conditions are satisfied.

(Appendix 5)
A gaming machine according to any one of appendices 1 to 4,
The second gaming state is a gaming state that is more advantageous than the first gaming state.
A game stand characterized by that.

For example, in the second gaming state, any one of the presence / absence of probability change, the presence / absence of electric support, etc. may be more advantageous than the first gaming state.
(Appendix 6)
A gaming machine according to any one of appendices 1 to 5,
The symbol display means is a plurality of symbol display means,

  At least one of the plurality of symbol display means is a first symbol display means,

  At least one symbol display means of the plurality of symbol display means is a second symbol display means,

  The first symbol display means is capable of executing at least a first symbol variation display,

  The second symbol display means is capable of executing at least a second symbol variation display,

The second symbol variation display can be executed in preference to the first symbol variation display,
The control means is at least controllable in a time-short state and a non-time-short state,

  In the time reduction state, the second symbol variation display is easier to be executed than in the non-time reduction state,

In the non-time reduction state, the first symbol variation display is more easily executed than the time reduction state.
A game stand characterized by that.

  In the special figure 2 priority variation machine, at least one of the plurality of groups may be a group for the variation time of the second symbol variation display (hereinafter referred to as “special group 2”). .

  In addition, at least one of the plurality of groups may be a group for the variation time of the first symbol variation display (hereinafter referred to as “special 1 group”), and the special 2 group and the special 1 group. May be a common group.

On the other hand, the special 1 group may be a group different from the special 2 group.
There are several types of variation time available as a big hit variation time.

One variation time among the plurality of types of variation times is a first variation time (for example, a relatively long variation time),
The first group is a group including the first variation time,
The second group may be a group that does not include the first variation time.

  By doing so, during the second gaming state, short big hit variation is likely to be selected, and there are cases where it is possible to hit big hits with good tempo.

Furthermore, even in the case of the first gaming state that occurred irregularly (the group has selected the second group, but is not in a favorable gaming state of probability change or electric support), it is easy to select a short jackpot variation In some cases, expectation can be higher than normal because it is a big hit.
(Appendix 7)
A game machine as set forth in appendix 6,
The second gaming state is at least the short-time state,
The second gaming state is at least a probable state,
The first gaming state is at least the short-time state,

  The seventh period is a period that starts at least after the jackpot gaming state ends,

The sixth period is a period that starts at least after the jackpot gaming state ends,
The sixth period is shorter than the seventh period,
The period that is the difference between the seventh period and the sixth period is the third period,
The third period is a period after the end of the first gaming state,
The third period is at least a third gaming state that becomes the non-time-saving state,

  The variation time determining means can determine at least the variation time from the second group when the gaming state in the third period is the second gaming state,

  The variation time determination means is capable of determining at least the variation time from the first group when the gaming state in the third period is the third gaming state. To play.

  According to the gaming table described in appendix 7, although there is a complicated game characteristic, there is a case where it is possible to produce an effect without a sense of incongruity even when the third period occurs.

  In addition, for the special figure 2 deviation time that does not reach even reach, in the second group, it is easy to select a relatively long fluctuation time when the number of holdings is a predetermined number (for example, 0 or 1) or less. When the predetermined number is exceeded, it is easy to select a relatively short variation time. In the first group, even when the predetermined number is exceeded, a relatively long variation time may be easily selected.

  The third gaming state is a non-time-saving state (normal state). Therefore, even if it is a rare prize, there is a possibility that the interest of the game will be reduced by shortening and fluctuating and finalizing the loss early.

  In addition, when the state transitions from the first gaming state to the third gaming state due to switching of the electric support state (short-time state), the main symbol variation display changes from the second symbol variation display to the first symbol variation display. Although the display shifts to the change display, it only becomes long change only at that time, and there may be no sense of incongruity in the overall change time even through the first special state.

  Moreover, in a non-time-short state, the structure which does not win a start area | region (special figure 2 start winning opening) used as a trigger of said 2nd symbol fluctuation | variation display may be sufficient.

  For example, there may be a phenomenon in which the second symbol variation display can be digested when switching to the third period.

  Further, the lost reach probability may be different between the second gaming state and the first gaming state. In this way, the reach reliability may be maintained at an appropriate value.

  Moreover, even if the variation time is not completely the same, an approximate variation time may be adopted.

In other words, a slight time lag or error is caused by the fluctuation time from the start of the change to the first stop, the change time from the first stop to the second stop, the change time from the second stop to the third stop, May be absorbed by the length of time, the length of time of various super reach, and the length of fluctuation of shaking.
