In this special symbol display device 11, a variable game (special symbol variation game) is displayed in which a plurality of types of symbols (special symbols) are displayed in a variable manner.

  In this embodiment, the special symbol display device 11 selects one special symbol corresponding to the lottery result of the winning lottery from a plurality of types of special symbols, and the selected special symbol is stopped by the end of the variable game. Is displayed. The special symbol is classified into a jackpot symbol that can recognize a jackpot and a miss symbol that can recognize a loss. When the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed, the player is awarded a jackpot game.

  The game board YB is provided with an effect display device 13 as a display means for displaying various images. In the effect display device 13, a display effect related to the variable game is performed. Specifically, a decorative design variation game in which a plurality of types of decorative symbols are varied in a plurality of columns is performed as the display effect.

  The effect display device 13 is configured such that a plurality of types of decorative symbols can be displayed in a variable manner and stopped for each column. The effect display device 13 is configured with a display area larger than that of the special symbol display device 11, and the decorative symbol is displayed much larger than the special symbol. For this reason, the player can recognize the big hit or loss from the symbol combination stopped and displayed on the effect display device 13. When the symbols of all the columns that are stopped and displayed on the effect display device 13 are of the same type, the jackpot to which the jackpot game is given can be recognized from the symbol combination. The symbol combination that can recognize the jackpot is a jackpot symbol combination (a jackpot display result) by a decorative symbol. When the jackpot symbol combination is stopped and displayed, the player is given a jackpot game after the end of the variable game. On the other hand, when the symbols of all the columns stopped and displayed on the effect display device 13 are not of the same type, it is possible to recognize a deviation from the symbol combination. The symbol combination that can recognize the deviation is a symbol combination of the detachment symbol (result of the loss display).

  In addition, on the effect display device 13, the symbol combination corresponding to the display result of the special symbol display device 11 is stopped and displayed. More specifically, a special symbol that is stopped and displayed on the special symbol display device 11 corresponds to a symbol combination that is a decorative symbol that is stopped and displayed on the effect display device 13. For example, when the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed on the special symbol display device 11, the jackpot symbol combination is also stopped and displayed on the effect display device 13. Further, when the special symbol display device 11 is stopped and the off symbol is displayed, the off symbol combination is also stopped and displayed on the effect display device 13. In addition, the symbol combination of the decoration symbol with respect to a special symbol is not necessarily one-to-one, and the symbol combination by one decoration symbol is selected from the symbol combinations by a some decoration symbol with respect to one special symbol.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a start winning device 15 having a start winning port 14 into which a game ball can always enter is disposed below the effect display device 13. In addition, the start winning device 15 is provided with a start sensor SE1 (see FIG. 3) that detects a game ball that has entered the start winning opening 14. When the start sensor SE1 detects a game ball that has entered the start winning opening 14, the start condition of the variable game can be established. In addition, when the start sensor SE1 detects a game ball that has entered the start winning port 14, a predetermined number of game ball payout conditions are established.

  Further, in the lower right portion of the effect display device 13 (to the right of the start winning opening 14), there is provided a big winning device 20 having a big winning port 19 into which a game ball can be entered. In addition, the big winning device 20 is provided with a count sensor SE3 (see FIG. 3) that detects a game ball that has entered the big winning opening 19. When the count sensor SE3 detects a game ball that has entered the special winning opening 19, a payout condition for game balls as a predetermined number of prize balls is established.

  The big prize device 20 is provided with a big prize door 21 that opens and closes by the operation of an actuator ACT1 such as a solenoid or a motor. The big prize opening 19 is always closed with the big prize opening door 21 closed. When the big hit game is awarded, the big prize opening door 21 is opened according to the kind of the big hit game given, the big prize opening 19 is opened, and the opening of the game ball is allowed by the opening. . For this reason, the player can obtain a chance to acquire a large number of prize balls. In this embodiment, the big hit game is advantageous to the player because a chance to win a large number of prize balls can be obtained. The jackpot game is given when the jackpot is determined by the internal lottery and the jackpot symbol (the jackpot display result) is stopped and displayed in the variable game.

Next, the jackpot game in this embodiment will be described.
The jackpot game is started after the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed in the variable game and the game is finished. When the big hit game starts, the opening time is set. And in this opening time, the opening effect which shows the start of a big hit game is performed first. In addition, when the opening time ends, a round game in which the special winning opening 19 is opened is performed a plurality of times up to a predetermined prescribed number of rounds. During one round game, the big winning opening 19 is opened until the upper limit number of game balls enter or until a specified time elapses. In round games, round effects are performed. When all round games are finished, an ending time is set. Also, during this ending time, an ending effect indicating the end of the big hit game is performed. When the ending time is over, the big hit game is over.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1, on the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, a push button type operation button BT is provided as an operation means that can be operated by the player.

Next, the control configuration of the pachinko gaming machine will be described based on FIG.
A main control board 30 is mounted on the back side of the pachinko gaming machine. The main control board 30 executes various processes related to the pachinko gaming machine and outputs various control signals (control commands) for controlling the game according to the processing results. An effect control board 31 is mounted on the back side of the machine. The effect control board 31 executes processing related to the determination of the display mode (display images such as symbols, backgrounds, characters, etc.) of the effect display device 13 based on the control signal (control command) input from the main control board 30. The display content is controlled according to the processing result.

Hereinafter, specific configurations of the main control board 30 and the effect control board 31 will be described.
The main control board 30 is provided with a main control CPU 30a. A main control ROM 30b and a main control RAM 30c are connected to the main control CPU 30a. A start sensor SE1 and a count sensor SE3 are connected to the main control CPU 30a. A special symbol display device 11 is connected to the main control CPU 30a. An actuator ACT1 is connected to the main control CPU 30a.

  The main control ROM 30b stores a main control program for executing various processes related to the pachinko gaming machine 10. The main control ROM 30b stores a plurality of types of variation patterns. Fluctuation patterns are game effects (display effects, etc.) from when a symbol (special symbol and decorative symbol) starts variable display (the variable game starts) until the symbol is stopped (the variable game ends). It shows the pattern that becomes the base. That is, the variation pattern can specify at least the effect time (variation time) from when the special symbol starts to be variably displayed until the special symbol is stopped and displayed. In the variation pattern in the present embodiment, it is also possible to specify the content of the variation game (such as whether or not a big hit) from when the special symbol is started to be displayed until the special symbol is stopped and displayed.

  The variation pattern includes a jackpot variation pattern that specifies a jackpot effect. In addition, the fluctuation pattern includes a deviation fluctuation pattern that specifies a deviation effect. Note that a plurality of types of variation patterns are prepared for the big hit variation pattern and the loss variation pattern.

  The jackpot effect is an effect in which the variable game is developed so that the symbol combination of the jackpot is finally stopped and displayed. The outlier effect is an effect in which the fluctuating game is developed so as to finally stop and display the off symbol combination.

Various determination values are stored in the main control ROM 30b. For example, the main control ROM 30b stores a jackpot determination value used in the jackpot lottery.
The main control RAM 30c stores various information (random values, timer values, flags, etc.) that can be appropriately rewritten during operation of the pachinko gaming machine.

  In the main control board 30, various random numbers used as a hit determination random number, a special symbol distribution random number, and a variation pattern distribution random number are generated. Incidentally, the random number for hit determination is a random number used for the big hit lottery. The random number for special symbol distribution is a random number used when determining a special symbol (type of jackpot). The variation pattern distribution random number is a random number used when determining the variation pattern. The values that can be taken by the random numbers for distribution pattern distribution are different for each classification of the out-of-range variation pattern and the big hit variation pattern. Note that the random numbers used as various random numbers may be hardware random numbers or software random numbers.

Next, the effect control board 31 will be described with reference to FIG.
The effect control board 31 is provided with an effect control CPU 31a. An effect control ROM 31b and an effect control RAM 31c are connected to the effect control CPU 31a. The effect control RAM 31c stores various types of information (random values, timer values, flags, etc.) that are appropriately rewritten during the operation of the pachinko gaming machine. The effect control CPU 31a updates the values of various random numbers at predetermined intervals, stores (sets) the updated values in the setting area of the effect control RAM 31c, and rewrites the values before the update. In addition, an operation button BT is connected to the effect control CPU 31a, and a button detection signal from the operation button BT can be input.

  The effect control ROM 31b stores an effect control program for executing a game effect. When the various control commands are input, the effect control CPU 31a executes various controls based on the effect control program. The effect control ROM 31b stores various image data (image data such as symbols, various background images, characters, characters, etc.). The effect display CPU 13 is connected to the effect control CPU 31a, and when various control commands are input, the display content of the effect display device 13 is controlled based on the effect control program.

  Next, various processes executed by the main control CPU 30a based on the main control program will be described. First, the special symbol input process will be described. The special symbol input process is executed at predetermined intervals by the main control CPU 30a.

  First, the main control CPU 30a executes a hold determination for determining whether or not a game ball has entered the start winning opening 14. That is, in the hold determination, the main control CPU 30a determines whether or not a detection signal output when the start sensor SE1 detects a game ball is input. When the determination result of the hold determination is affirmative (when a ball is entered), the main control CPU 30a acquires various random number values related to the variable game, and stores the acquired random number values in a predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 30c. To do. At that time, it is stored so that the acquisition order of random values related to the variable game can be recognized. Then, the special symbol input process is terminated. When the determination result of the hold determination is negative (when the ball has not entered the start winning opening 14), the main control CPU 30a ends the special symbol input process.

Next, the special symbol start process will be described. The main control CPU 30a is configured to execute a special symbol start process at predetermined intervals.
When the main control CPU 30a is not in the big hit game or the symbol variation game, among the random number values associated with the variation game (used for the variation game), the random number values associated with the variation game according to the acquisition order (the random number for hit determination, the variation Pattern distribution random numbers and special symbol distribution random numbers). Specifically, the random number value that is the earliest acquired random number value that is related to the variable game and that has not yet been used to execute the variable game is acquired.

The main control CPU 30a determines whether or not the value of the acquired random number for hit determination matches the jackpot determination value stored in the main control ROM 30b, and performs a big hit determination (big hit lottery).
When the determination result of the jackpot determination is affirmative (in the case of a jackpot), the main control CPU 30a determines the type of jackpot game based on the acquired special symbol distribution random number value, The final stop symbol to be stopped and displayed on the special symbol display device 11 is determined. Thereafter, the main control CPU 30a determines a variation pattern from the big hit variation pattern based on the obtained variation pattern distribution random number.

  The main control CPU 30a, which has determined the variation pattern and the final stop symbol, executes various processes relating to the variation game, such as outputting a predetermined control command to the effect control board 31 (effect control CPU 31a) at a predetermined timing.

  Specifically, the main control CPU 30a first outputs a variation pattern designation command for designating a variation pattern and instructing the start of symbol variation. At the same time when the fluctuation pattern designation command is output, the main control CPU 30a controls the display content of the special symbol display device 11 so as to start the fluctuation of the special symbol. At the same time, the main control CPU 30a starts measuring the effect time of the variable game. Further, the main control CPU 30a outputs a special symbol designation command for designating the type of the final stop symbol. When the final stop symbol is a jackpot symbol, the type of jackpot game can be specified. Therefore, the special symbol designation command is also a hit category designation command for designating the type of jackpot game. Then, the main control CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process.

  Thereafter, in a process different from the special symbol start process, the main control CPU 30a specially displays the determined final stop symbol based on the effect time (variation time) set in the designated variation pattern. The display content of the symbol display device 11 is controlled. Further, the main control CPU 30a instructs to stop the variation of the decorative symbols based on the effect time set in the designated variation pattern, and outputs an all symbol stop command for stopping and displaying the symbol combination.

  On the other hand, when the determination result of the big hit determination is negative (when the big hit is not a big hit), the main control CPU 30a determines the off symbol as the final stop symbol to be stopped and displayed on the special symbol display device 11. Next, the main control CPU 30a determines a variation pattern from the deviation variation patterns based on the obtained variation pattern distribution random number value.

  Then, the main control CPU 30a which has determined the variation pattern and the final stop symbol outputs a predetermined control command to the effect control board 31 (effect control CPU 31a) at a predetermined timing, as described above (in the case of big hit). Various processes related to the variable game are executed. Thereafter, the main control CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process.

  When determining the big hit, the main control CPU 30a starts the control of the type of big hit game specified based on the final stop symbol after the end of the symbol variation game based on the determined variation pattern, and the effect control board 31 ( A predetermined control command is output at a predetermined timing to the effect control CPU 31a), and control related to the big hit game is executed.

  Next, various processes executed by the effect control CPU 31a of the effect control board 31 based on the effect control program will be described. When a predetermined control command is input from the main control CPU 30a at a predetermined timing, the effect control CPU 31a executes various processes accordingly.

  For example, when the effect control CPU 31a inputs a variation pattern designation command and a special symbol designation command, the effect display device is based on the variation pattern designated by the variation pattern designation command and the final stop symbol designated by the special symbol designation command. The combination of symbols by the decorative symbols to be stopped and displayed at 13 is determined.

  That is, the effect control CPU 31a determines the jackpot symbol combination when the final stop symbol designated by the special symbol designation command is a jackpot symbol. In addition, when the designated final stop symbol is a loss symbol, the effect control CPU 31a determines a symbol combination of loss.

  Then, when the variation control designation command is input, the effect control CPU 31a controls the representation display device 13 to execute the variation game based on the variation pattern designated by the variation pattern designation command. Thereafter, when the all-design stop command is input, the effect control CPU 31a ends the variable game and displays the determined symbol combination.

  Further, the effect control CPU 31a of the present embodiment is configured to store the game history in the game period from the start of the game to the end of the game in the effect control RAM 31c. In this embodiment, the game history includes the total number of jackpots given during the game period (hereinafter referred to as the number of jackpots) and the number of variable games executed during the game period (hereinafter referred to as the number of variable games). It is included. The game history includes the date and time (date and time) at the start of the game and the date and time at the end of the game. Therefore, the effect control RAM 31c serves as a game history storage means for storing a game history. It can be said that the game history includes time information regarding any time from the start of the game to the end of the game.

  Then, the production control CPU 31a of the present embodiment generates and displays a two-dimensional code NC as a code for authenticating the mobile terminal CM to acquire the game history based on the game history. . Therefore, in the present embodiment, the effect control CPU 31a serves as a display control means for controlling the effect display device 13 to display the two-dimensional code NC that can be input to the mobile terminal CM outside the pachinko gaming machine 10.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 4, the mobile terminal CM is configured to acquire a game history by reading the two-dimensional code NC displayed on the effect display device 13. The mobile terminal CM is configured to be connectable to the server SV via a network such as the Internet. The server SV is configured to receive a game history from the mobile terminal CM and store the game history. In this embodiment, the pachinko gaming machine 10 and the server SV constitute a gaming system. This will be described in detail below.

First, a process performed by the pachinko gaming machine 10 to start storing the game history will be described.
As shown in FIG. 5A, the effect control CPU 31a operates the effect display device when the operation button BT is operated when the change game or the big hit game is finished and there is no change game pending execution. 13 displays a menu screen 100. A plurality of selectable items are displayed on the menu screen 100 when the player operates the operation buttons BT. Among these items, an item 101 for instructing the start of the game, an item 102 for instructing the end of the game and instructing the display of the two-dimensional code NC, an item 103 for instructing the display of the game history during the game period, etc. Exists.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the player operates the operation button BT and selects the item 101 for instructing the start of the game on the menu screen 100, the effect control CPU 31a determines the game period. Start and start memorizing game history. That is, when a big hit game is awarded during the game period, the effect control CPU 31a adds 1 to the number of big hits and updates the game history. In addition, when a variable game is executed during the game period, the effect control CPU 31a adds 1 to the number of variable games and updates the game history. The effect control CPU 31a stores the date and time at the start of the game. The production control board 31 has a clock function, and the date and time can be specified based on the clock function. Thereafter, similarly, the effect control CPU 31a continues to store the game history until the end of the game period described later.

Next, a process performed by the pachinko gaming machine 10 to display the two-dimensional code NC will be described.
A case where the game is ended after the start of the game period will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 6A, as described above, the menu screen 100 is displayed on the effect display device 13 when the variable game or the big hit game ends and there is no variable game that is suspended.

  As shown in FIG. 6B, when the operation button BT is operated by the player on the menu screen 100 to instruct the end of the game and the item 102 to instruct the display of the two-dimensional code NC is selected. The effect control CPU 31a ends the game period. At that time, the effect control CPU 31a includes the date and time at the end of the game in the game history. Then, the effect control CPU 31a generates a two-dimensional code NC based on the stored game history and displays the two-dimensional code NC. Therefore, it can be said that the effect control CPU 31a causes the effect display device 13 to display the two-dimensional code NC capable of specifying the game history stored in the effect control RAM 31c at the end of the game.

  The two-dimensional code NC is a multi-dimensional code (in this embodiment, a two-dimensional code) in which information is coded (recorded) according to a predetermined standard. The information to be encoded is a URL (uniform resource locator) of the server SV, that is, an address on the Internet, in addition to information on the game history.

Next, the reading process and the transmission process by the mobile terminal CM and the mobile terminal CM will be described.
The mobile terminal CM in the present embodiment is a terminal such as a mobile phone with a camera function (smart phone) capable of photographing the pachinko gaming machine 10 or a mobile information terminal (mobile computer, tablet type terminal) having a camera function. . The mobile terminal CM includes a camera and a display screen CH that displays a captured image captured by the camera and information to be transmitted and received. The mobile terminal CM has a communication function for transmitting and receiving information to and from the server SV.

  The mobile terminal CM stores application software (hereinafter referred to as an application) for reading the photographed two-dimensional code NC and transmitting / receiving information to / from the server SV. Based on this application, the mobile terminal CM can perform various operations relating to reading and transmission / reception. This application is configured to be downloadable from a server SV or the like.

Next, reading processing and transmission processing will be described.
When the display image displayed on the effect display device 13 is captured by the camera of the mobile terminal CM, the mobile terminal CM reads the two-dimensional code NC present in the captured display image based on the application. When this two-dimensional code NC is read, the mobile terminal CM displays a URL designating the server SV specified by the two-dimensional code NC based on the function of the application. By specifying (selecting) the displayed URL by operating the mobile terminal CM, the mobile terminal CM can connect (access) the server SV corresponding to the URL via the Internet.

  In accordance with the connection of the server SV, the mobile terminal CM provides the server SV with information on the game history recorded in the two-dimensional code NC along with the player information for identifying the player based on the function of the application. Send. The player information for specifying the player is registered in advance at the time of downloading the application, for example, the name of the player.

Next, a description will be given of the server SV as an external control means and a process for the server SV to store a game history.
The server SV has a communication function for transmitting and receiving information to and from the mobile terminal CM via a network, and includes a server computer SVC that performs various processes. Accordingly, the server computer SVC serves as a receiving means for receiving the game history specified by the two-dimensional code NC input to the mobile terminal CM. The server SV has a server memory SVM for storing a game history.

Processing for storing the game history will be described.
When the server computer SVC receives the player information transmitted by the mobile terminal CM and the information related to the game history, the server computer SVC determines whether the game history is based on a normal game. Specifically, the server computer SVC reads out a game history associated with the received player information from the server memory SVM. If there is no game history associated with the player information, it is determined that the game is based on a normal game.

  Then, the server computer SVC determines whether or not the game period included in the read game history overlaps with the game period included in the received game history. For example, when it is recorded that the game period included in the received game history starts at 13:10 on August 5 and ends at 18:30 on August 5, there is a game period overlapping with the period. It is determined whether it is included in the read game history.

  If it is determined that the game period included in the read game history and the game period included in the received game history partially overlap, the server computer SVC determines that the game is not based on a normal game. To do. On the other hand, if it is determined that the game period included in the read game history and the game period included in the received game history do not completely overlap, the server computer SVC is based on a normal game. judge.

  In other words, even if a part of the game period overlaps, it means that a plurality of units are executed at the same time, for example, based on a manner violation that the same player plays a game simultaneously with a plurality of units, Alternatively, it is considered that the game history of another player performed at the same time is illegally acquired. In this case, it is determined that the game is not based on a normal game.

  If the server computer SVC determines that the game is not based on a normal game, the server computer SVC ends the process without storing the game history. On the other hand, if the server computer SVC determines that the game is based on a normal game, the server computer SVC stores information related to the game history in an individual area of the server memory SVM associated with the player information.

  Therefore, when the server computer SVC receives a game history, the server computer SVC serves as a determination unit that determines whether the game history is based on a normal game. Further, when the server memory SVC determines that the received game history is based on a normal game by the server computer SVC, the server memory SVM serves as an external storage unit that stores the game history for each player. Further, the server computer SVC determines whether it is based on a normal game by comparing the time information included in the received game history with the time information included in the game history stored in the server memory SVM. That's right. In addition, the effect control CPU 31a compares the time information so that it can be determined that the game history is based on a normal game, and the time information regarding any time from the start of the game to the end of the game. It can be said that the effect display device 13 displays the two-dimensional code NC that can specify the game history including the.

  In this individual area, the game history received from the mobile terminal CM is reflected in the already stored game history, and stored as the latest game history. That is, a game history is accumulated. For example, the received jackpot number is added to the jackpot number stored in the server memory SVM, and the result is stored as the latest jackpot number. Similarly, the received variable game number is added to the variable game number stored in the server memory SVM and stored as the latest variable game number. Further, the total time of the game period is updated and stored, and each game period is also stored.

Next, a process for the mobile terminal CM to receive a game history from the server SV will be described.
Further, the mobile terminal CM is configured to be able to acquire the accumulated game history by accessing the server SV based on the function of the application.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7A, in the mobile terminal CM, when a predetermined operation is performed by the player, the menu screen 200 is displayed on the display screen CH based on the function of the application. On the menu screen 200, a plurality of items that can be selected by a player performing a predetermined operation are displayed. Among these items, there are an item 201 for instructing acquisition of a game history accumulated from the server SV, an item 202 for setting and registering player information, and the like.

  Then, when a predetermined operation is performed by the player and an item 201 for instructing acquisition of the game history accumulated from the server SV is selected, the mobile terminal CM accesses the server SV based on the function of the application. Then, it is possible to make a request to receive the game history stored in the individual area associated with the player information. When the server SV receives the game history reception request, the server SV transmits the game history stored in the individual area associated with the received player information.

  As shown in FIG. 7B, the mobile terminal CM receives the game history and displays the received game history on the display screen CH. Thereby, the player can see the accumulated game history on the mobile terminal CM.

As described above in detail, the present embodiment has the following effects.
(1) The game history includes time information regarding any time from the start of the game to the end of the game, and the game history is based on a normal game by comparing the time information. It was possible to determine whether or not. As a result, when the time information related to any time from the start of the game to the end of the game includes time information that cannot be a normal game, the game was played with two or more gaming machines. Can be determined. That is, it can be determined that the game history is based on a game played by another person, or that a game that violates the manner of playing two or more gaming machines simultaneously is performed. Therefore, by storing a game history excluding such a game history, a game history based on a normal game can be stored.

  (2) The pachinko gaming machine 10 compares the time information so that it can be determined whether the game history is based on a normal game, from the start of the game to the end of the game. Include time information about any of the times. As a result, when the time information related to any time from the start of the game to the end of the game includes time information that cannot be a normal game, the game was played with two or more gaming machines. Can be determined. That is, it can be determined that the game history is based on a game played by another person, or that a game that violates the manner of playing two or more gaming machines simultaneously is performed. Therefore, by storing a game history excluding such a game history, a game history based on a normal game can be stored.

  (3) The game history includes time information related to any time from the start of the game to the end of the game, and the server SV as the external control means compares the time information to obtain the game history. It can be determined whether or not is based on normal games. As a result, when the time information related to any time from the start of the game to the end of the game includes time information that cannot be a normal game, the game was played with two or more gaming machines. Can be determined. That is, it can be determined that the game history is based on a game played by another person, or that a game that violates the manner of playing two or more gaming machines simultaneously is performed. Therefore, by storing a game history excluding such a game history, a game history based on a normal game can be stored.

  (4) When the server computer SVC compares the game period (time information) included in the received game history with the game period (time information) included in the game history stored in the server memory SVM, the game period is If there is no overlap, it is determined that the game is based on a normal game. Thereby, it can be determined that a game is played with a plurality of machines at the same time.

  (5) Moreover, it is only necessary to include time information in the game history, and no control burden is imposed on the pachinko gaming machine 10. Also, the server SV need only determine whether or not the time information is duplicated, and can determine whether or not it is normal without imposing a burden on the control.

In addition, the said embodiment can be actualized in another embodiment (another example) as follows.
In the above embodiment, the content and type of information included in the game history may be arbitrarily changed. For example, the number and types of reach effects, the types and contents of executed game effects, the type of displayed character, the number of executed big rounds, and the probability change state where the big hit probability is changed from the normal state to the high probability The number of games executed until the jackpot game is awarded in the normal probability (the number of games until the first hit) may be included. In addition, the game history includes the number of winning balls won, the number of times that the game has changed, the number of executions of special effects (such as super reach and premium effects), the number of winning balls or the number of jackpots per hour, etc. It may be. Also, the number of times of the fluctuating game per time, the number of fluctuating games with respect to the number of shots (number of shots), etc. may be used.

  In the above embodiment, the two-dimensional code NC is displayed when the variable game and the big hit game are not performed and there is no pending variable game, but the display timing is displayed. May be changed arbitrarily. For example, it may be during a demonstration production, during a variable game, or during a big hit game.

In the above embodiment, the two-dimensional code NC is formed in a square shape, but the shape may be arbitrarily changed. For example, it may be round.
-In above-mentioned embodiment, although the portable terminal CM only displayed the accumulated game history, it is good also as the execution according to a game history, or the display of a privilege image being executable.

  In the above embodiment, the game history is stored in the effect control RAM 31c, but may be stored in the main control RAM 30c. In this case, when the two-dimensional code NC is displayed corresponding to the information about the game history, the main control CPU 30a generates and displays the information, or the information about the game history is sent from the main control board 30 to the effect control board. The effect control CPU 31a may generate the two-dimensional code NC and display it.

  In the above embodiment, the production control CPU 31a (production control board 31) has become a display control means for controlling the display content of the production display device 13, but display control other than the production control CPU 31a (production control board 31). Means may be provided. For example, a display control board only for controlling the effect display device 13 may be provided separately from the effect control board 31, and the display control board (display control CPU) may be the display control means.

  In the above embodiment, the identification information and the game history stored in the pachinko gaming machine 10 are obtained after a predetermined time has elapsed since the floating game and the jackpot game are terminated and there are no more floating games held. It may be deleted.

  In the above embodiment, the game history includes the date and time at the start of the game and the date and time at the end of the game as time information, but it may be time information regarding any time from the start of the game to the end of the game. For example, the time information may be changed. For example, you may make it memorize | store time for every predetermined time from the game start time. Alternatively, a predetermined time (for example, 9 o'clock, 10 o'clock, 11 o'clock, 12 o'clock, 13 o'clock, 14 o'clock, 15 o'clock, 16 o'clock, 17 o'clock, 18 o'clock, 19 o'clock, 20 o'clock, 21 o'clock, 22 o'clock) When the time has elapsed, this may be included in the time information.

  In the above embodiment, it is adopted for a pachinko gaming machine, but it may be realized by a slot machine (rotating-type gaming machine, hereinafter referred to as a slot). In addition, when the player operates the start operation means (start lever), the slot starts to fluctuate with a plurality of rotating bodies (reels) in which symbols are arranged, and the slot is determined whether or not it is related to whether or not the variable game is successful. Judgment is performed. In the slot, after the reels are rotated, a symbol stop process based on the determination of success / failure is executed in response to an operation of a stop operation means (stop button) provided corresponding to each reel. Value (award medal, etc.) is given.

  Further, when employed in the slot, it is not always necessary to execute the decorative symbol variation game in the effect display device, and an effect display such as an effect game suggesting a result of the determination of success or failure may be performed. In the slot, the specific state corresponding to the big hit game is, for example, a state in which a predetermined determination result (predetermined winning combination) is likely to be established (so-called replay time or the like), or a predetermined symbol combination (game). It is a state (so-called assist time or the like) that makes it easy to stop a predetermined combination that gives value).

Next, a technical idea that can be grasped from the above embodiment and another example will be added below.
(A) In the above gaming system, when the determination unit compares the time information included in the received game history with the time information included in the game history stored in the external storage unit, the time information does not overlap. In such a case, it may be determined that the game is based on a normal game.

(B) In the gaming machine, the game history may be determined to be based on a normal game by comparing whether time information overlaps.
(C) In the external control means, when the determination means compares the time information included in the received game history with the time information included in the game history stored in the external storage means, the time information is duplicated. If not, it may be determined that the game is based on a normal game.
