  Further, in the present embodiment, a probability variation (hereinafter referred to as “probability variation”) function is provided. The probability variation function is a function that can give a probability variation state (probability variation state) in which the lottery probability of the big hit lottery varies from a low probability to a high probability after the big hit game ends. In this embodiment, the probability variation state is given until a predetermined probability variation end condition is satisfied. The probability variation state can be a gaming state advantageous to the player because the lottery probability of the jackpot lottery fluctuates with high probability and the jackpot is likely to occur.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, the entrance rate improvement function is provided. The entrance rate improvement function is a function that can give an entrance rate improvement state (variable state) advantageous to a player after the end of the big hit game. In the entrance rate improvement state, the fluctuation time of the base drawing game for deriving the lottery result for the base drawing is shortened compared to when the entrance rate improvement state is not given (non-entry rate improvement state). . Further, in the increased entrance rate state, the probability of winning the normal winning lottery is higher than in the non-entry rate improvement state. In addition, in the improved entrance rate, when the lottery per standard drawing is won, the opening time of the opening / closing member 22b based on winning the lottery per general drawing is larger than in the non-entry rate improved state. become longer. In addition, during the entrance rate improvement state, the change time of the variable game may be shortened as compared to the non-entry rate improvement state. Often shortened.

  In this embodiment, the entrance rate improvement state is given until a predetermined entrance rate improvement end condition is satisfied. The state in which the entrance rate is improved can be a game state in which the opening / closing member 22b operates in an advantageous manner for the player and the entrance rate to the second start winning opening 22a per unit time is more advantageous than the normal player. In addition, the entrance rate improvement state can be imparted even during the probability variation state.

  In the present embodiment, the first start winning opening 21a is disposed below the effect display device 16, and the right side of the game board YB is more rolled when the first flow path X on the left side of the game board YB is rolled. This makes it easier for a game ball to enter than to roll the second flow path Y. For this reason, in the non-entry rate improvement state where it is difficult for a game ball to enter the second start winning opening 22a, the first flow path X is caused to roll in order to allow the game ball to enter the first start winning opening 21a. Tend to fire game balls. On the other hand, on the right side of the effect display device 16, the operation gate 25, the second start winning port 22a, and the big winning port 23a are arranged in order from the top, and the second flow path Y is rolled. This makes it easier for a game ball to enter than to roll the first flow path X. For this reason, in the state of increasing the rate of entry where game balls can easily enter the second start winning opening 22a, the game balls enter the big winning opening 23a in the big hit game so that the game balls can enter the second start winning opening 22a. In order to enter the ball, the game ball tends to be fired so as to roll the second flow path Y.

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 starts. In this opening time, the opening effect which shows the start of a big hit game is performed first. When the opening time ends, a round game in which the special winning opening 23a is opened is performed a plurality of times, with a predetermined number of rounds as an upper limit. One round game is continued until the upper limit number of game balls enter the big winning opening 23a or until a prescribed time elapses. In the round game, a round effect is performed. When all round games are finished, the ending time is set. In 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.

  In the present embodiment, when the big hit lottery is won, one big hit is determined from a plurality of types of big hits, and a big hit game corresponding to the determined big hit is given. Depending on the type of special symbol (big hit symbol) that is determined when the big hit lottery is won, any of the big hits is determined.

Here, the specifications of so-called pachinko gaming machines, such as the winning probability of the jackpot lottery and the contents of the jackpot game will be described.
In the present embodiment, the winning probability of the big hit determination (lottery) is 164/65536 (about 1/399) in the non-probability changing state that is not the probability changing state, and 1640/65536 (about 1/40) in the probability changing state. ) Are specified respectively. The number of payout prize balls when the first start sensor SE1 or the second start sensor SE2 detects a game ball is “3”, and the number of payout prize balls when the count sensor SE3 detects a game ball is “14”. Each is defined. “9 balls” is the maximum number of balls that can be entered in one round game, and the maximum opening time of the grand prize opening door 23b when there is no game ball of the maximum number of balls entered in one round game is “ "25 seconds" is defined respectively. “12” is defined as the number of round games in one big hit game.

  In the floating game, a probability variation state is given with a probability of 70% so as to correspond to the type of jackpot until the next jackpot game is awarded (hereinafter referred to as “until next time”) after the jackpot game is finished. Probability is not granted after the big hit game ends with a probability of%. Note that there is a case where a jackpot to which a probability variation state is given after the end of the big hit game is shown as a probability variation big hit, and a big hit which is not given a probability change state after the big hit game is shown as a non-probability big hit. In addition, when the probability change state is given, after the jackpot game is finished, the entrance rate improvement state is given until the next time, and when the probability change state is not given, the upper limit is “100 times” after the jackpot game is finished. As a result, the improved entrance rate is given.

Next, the control configuration of the pachinko gaming machine will be described based on FIG.

  The main control ROM 30b stores a main control program for executing various processes related to the pachinko gaming machine. The main control ROM 30b stores a plurality of types of variation patterns. The variation pattern is a pattern that serves as a base for game effects (display effects, etc.) from when a symbol (special symbol) starts to fluctuate (variable game starts) to when the symbol is stopped and displayed (variable game ends). Is shown. That is, the variation pattern can specify at least the variation time (effect time) from when the special symbol starts to vary until the special symbol is confirmed and stopped. In the variation pattern in the present embodiment, it is possible to specify the contents of the effect of the variation game (such as whether there is a big hit, whether there is a reach effect, etc.) from when the special symbol starts to vary until the special symbol is displayed with a fixed stop. it can.

  The variation pattern includes a jackpot variation pattern that specifies a jackpot effect. In the fluctuation pattern, after a predetermined effect (for example, reach effect) is performed, an outlier reach effect pattern that specifies an outlier reach effect that is finally set as a deviation is specified, and an outlier effect that is determined as a deviation without forming a reach There is an outlier variation pattern.

  The jackpot variation effect is an effect that is developed so as to finally stop and display the symbol combination of the jackpot through the reach effect. The outlier reach variation effect is an effect that is developed so that a final symbol combination is finally stopped and displayed through the reach effect. The outlier variation effect is an effect that is developed so as to finally display the symbol combination of the disappointment without confirming the reach effect. The reach effect is an effect that is performed during the period from the formation of the reach symbol combination to the derivation of the jackpot symbol combination or the outlier symbol combination in the decorative symbol variation game based on the ornament symbol of the effect display device 16. is there.

  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 number of jackpot determination values when the probability variation state is imparted is larger than the number of jackpot determination values when the probability variation state is not imparted. The main control ROM 30b stores a reach determination value used in the reach lottery for determining whether or not to execute the reach effect.

  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. For example, the main control RAM 30c stores a main probability change flag indicating whether or not a probability change state is given. Further, the main control RAM 30c stores a main operation flag indicating whether or not the entrance rate improvement state is given.

  In the main control board 30, various random numbers used as random numbers for hit determination, random numbers for special symbol distribution, random numbers for reach effect determination, and random numbers for fluctuation pattern distribution are generated. The winning determination random number is a random number used in the big hit lottery. The reach determination random number is a random number used for reach 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 variation pattern distribution have different distributions for each category of the loss variation pattern, the loss reach 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.

  The effect control board 31 is provided with an effect control CPU 31a. The effect control ROM 31b and the effect control RAM 31c are connected to the effect control CPU 31a. The effect control ROM 31b stores a plurality of types of sub variation patterns.

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. For example, the sub-probability change flag indicating whether or not the probability change state is given is stored in the effect control RAM 31c. In addition, the effect control RAM 31c stores a secondary operation flag indicating whether or not the entrance rate improvement state is given. 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.

  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.). In addition, the effect display device 16 is connected to the effect control CPU 31a, and when various control commands are input, the display content of the effect display device 16 is controlled based on the effect control program. In addition, a decoration lamp LA and a speaker SP are connected to the effect control CPU 31a. The effect button BT is connected to the effect control CPU 31a.

Next, various processes such as a special symbol input process and a special symbol start process 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. The main control CPU 30a that executes such processing functions as a random number acquisition unit, and the main control RAM 30c functions as a holding storage unit.

  First, the main control CPU 30a executes a hold determination for determining whether or not a game ball has entered the first start winning opening 21a or the second start winning opening 22a. That is, the main control CPU 30a outputs in response to detection of a game ball entered into the first start winning port 21a or the second start winning port 22a by the first start sensor SE1 or the second start sensor SE2 in the hold determination. It is determined whether or not a detection signal to be input is input.

  When the determination result of the hold determination is affirmative (when a game ball enters the first start winning opening 21a or the second start winning opening 22a), the main control CPU 30a has an upper limit storage number (in the present embodiment). “4”) is executed to determine whether or not there is a pending storage number. When the determination result of the reserved memory number determination is affirmative (when the upper limit value is not reached), the main control CPU 30a updates the value by adding “1” to the reserved memory number stored in the main control RAM 30c. Remember. The main control CPU 30a controls the hold display device 13 so as to display the updated hold memory number. Further, the main control CPU 30a outputs a hold designation command for designating the number of hold memories after the update. The main control CPU 30a acquires various random number values and stores the acquired random number values in a predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 30c in association with the reserved storage number. On the other hand, when the determination result of the hold determination is negative (when the game ball does not enter the first start winning opening 21a and the second start winning opening 22a), or the determination result of the hold memory number determination is negative In the case of (when the upper limit value of the number of reserved memories has been reached), the main control CPU 30a does not execute the above processing.

  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. The main control CPU 30a that executes such processing functions as a jackpot determining means and a variation pattern determining means.

  When the big hit game or the variable game is not being executed, the main control CPU 30a specifies the reserved memory number and determines whether the reserved memory number is larger than “0”. When the number of reserved memories is “0”, the main control CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process.

  On the other hand, when the determination result is affirmative (when the number of stored memories is larger than “0”), the main control CPU 30a determines that the execution condition of the variable game is satisfied, and a predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 30c. Is set to a value indicating that the variation game is to be executed. In the present embodiment, when the big hit game and the variable game are not being executed, and when the number of reserved memories is larger than “0” (that is, when there is a variable game whose execution is held). The execution condition of the variable game is established.

  Next, the main control CPU 30a, among random number values related to the variable game (used for the variable game), random number values related to the variable game that are executed earliest in accordance with the acquisition sequence (random numbers for hit determination, variable pattern distribution) Random number for use and special design distribution random number). 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 subtracts 1 from the specified reserved storage number, and changes the display content of the hold display device 13 so as to represent the reserved storage number. The main control CPU 30a outputs a hold designation command indicating the number of hold memories after the update.

  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. The main control CPU 30a controls the display content of the special symbol display device 11 so as to start the variation of the special symbol. Further, 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 (a jackpot type designation command) for designating the final stop symbol and 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 displays the determined final stop symbol on the basis of the variation time determined in the designated variation pattern. Controls the display content of. 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 determination is not), the main control CPU 30a performs a reach determination for determining whether or not to execute the reach effect. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 30a determines whether or not the reach determination random number acquired from the main control RAM 30c matches the reach determination value.

  When the determination result of the reach determination is affirmative (when the reach effect is performed), the main control CPU 30a determines the off symbol as a final stop symbol to be confirmed and displayed on the special symbol display device 11. Next, the main control CPU 30a determines a variation pattern from the outlier reach variation patterns based on the obtained variation pattern distribution random number value.

  The main control CPU 30a that has determined the variation pattern and the final stop symbol, for example, outputs a predetermined control command at a predetermined timing to the effect control board 31 (effect control CPU 31a) as in the case of the big hit. Perform various processes related to the game. Thereafter, the main control CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process.

  On the other hand, when the determination result of the reach determination is negative (when the reach effect is not performed), the main control CPU 30a determines the off symbol as a final stop symbol to be displayed on the special symbol display device 11 with a fixed stop. 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.

  The main control CPU 30a that has determined the variation pattern and the final stop symbol, for example, outputs a predetermined control command at a predetermined timing to the effect control board 31 (effect control CPU 31a) as in the case of the big hit. Perform various processes related to the game. Thereafter, the main control CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process.

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

  Specifically, the main control CPU 30a starts setting the opening time in response to the start of the big hit game. Further, the main control CPU 30 a outputs an opening command for instructing that the opening time has started to the effect control board 31. Next, the main control CPU 30a controls each round game after the opening time ends. That is, the main control CPU 30a outputs a round command for instructing the start of a round game to the effect control board 31 at the start of each round game. Further, the main control CPU 30a controls the special winning opening 23a to be in an open state and a closed state for each round game. That is, the main control CPU 30a opens the large winning opening 23a in a predetermined release mode until the upper limit number of game balls are won or until a predetermined time predetermined for each round game elapses. Control to open state.

  Then, when the round game is finished, the main control CPU 30a controls the large winning opening 23a to be closed, and closes the large winning opening 23a until a round interval time predetermined for each round game elapses. Maintain state. A series of these controls is executed until the specified number of rounds is reached.

  When the predetermined number of round games are finished, the main control CPU 30a starts setting the ending time. Further, the main control CPU 30a outputs an ending command for instructing that the ending time has started to the effect control board 31. When the ending time has elapsed, the main control CPU 30a ends the big hit game. The main control CPU 30a that executes such processing functions as a big hit game control means.

  When the big hit game is finished, the main control CPU 30a assigns the probability change state to the main probability change flag when giving the probability change state based on the determined type of jackpot (special symbol type). Set the value indicating. On the other hand, the main control CPU 30a sets a value indicating that the probability variation state is not imparted to the main probability variation flag when the probability variation state is not imparted. The main control CPU 30a temporarily resets the value of the main probability change flag when the big hit game is awarded.

  Further, when the big hit game is ended, the main control CPU 30a sets a value indicating that the entrance rate improvement state is given to the main operation flag. Further, the main control CPU 30a sets a value indicating the number of times of imparting the entrance rate improvement state in the main operation number flag based on the type of jackpot (special symbol type). When the main operation number flag is decremented by “1” and becomes “0” every time the variable game is executed, the main control CPU 30a resets the value of the main operation flag. Further, the main control CPU 30 a outputs an operation number designation command for designating a value set in the main operation number flag to the effect control board 31. The main control CPU 30a temporarily resets the values of the main operation flag and the main operation number flag when the big hit game is awarded. The main control CPU 30a that executes such processing functions as a gaming state control means.

  When the main control CPU 30a detects that a game ball has entered the big prize opening 23a, the main control CPU 30a indicates that the game ball has entered the big prize opening 23a and outputs a big prize command to the effect control board 31. .

  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. The effect control CPU 31a that executes such processing functions as effect content determination means and sub variation pattern determination means.

  For example, when the change control designation command and the special symbol designation command are input, the effect control CPU 31a displays a fixed stop display 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 symbol combination by the decorative symbol to be made 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 an outlier design and the outlier reach variation pattern is designated, the effect control CPU 31a determines the symbol combination of the outlier reach. In addition, when the designated final stop symbol is a missing symbol and the deviation variation pattern is designated, the effect control CPU 31a determines a symbol combination of deviation.

  Then, when the variation control designation command is input, the production control CPU 31a determines a sub variation pattern based on the variation pattern designated by the variation pattern designation command, and executes the decorative symbol variation game based on the sub variation pattern. The effect display device 16 is controlled so that Further, the effect control CPU 31a controls the decoration lamp LA and the speaker SP so as to execute the effect accompanying the change game (decorative symbol change game) based on the determined sub change pattern. Thereafter, when the all-design stop command is input, the effect control CPU 31a ends the effect accompanying the variable game and displays the determined symbol combination.

  In addition, when a big hit symbol is designated as the final stop symbol, the effect control CPU 31a gives a probability change state to the sub-probability change flag when a probability change state is given based on the big hit symbol after the big hit game ends. Set a value indicating that On the other hand, the effect control CPU 31a sets a value indicating that the probability variation state is not imparted to the sub-probability variation flag when the probability variation state is not imparted.

  When the big hit symbol is designated as the final stop symbol, the effect control CPU 31a sets a value indicating that the entrance rate improvement state is given to the secondary operation flag, and sets the value of the secondary operation frequency flag to the number of operations. Set. Further, the effect control CPU 31a updates the value of the sub-operation count flag based on the value set in the main operation count flag specified by the operation count specification command. When the big hit game is awarded or when the value of the secondary action number flag becomes “0”, the value indicating that the increased entry rate state is given from the secondary action flag is deleted.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the effect control CPU 31a is provided with a big hit game by adding “1” to the continuous number counter assigned to the effect control RAM 31c when the opening command is input. The number of consecutive times (so-called “number of consecutive resorts”) is counted. Then, when the CPU 31a for effect control erases the value indicating that the entrance rate improvement state is given from the secondary action flag, the big hit game is given by setting “0” to the continuous number counter. Initialize the count of consecutive times to be performed. It should be noted that the effect control CPU 31a counts the big hit game when the big hit game is won in the non-entrance rate improvement state as the first time. Thereby, the CPU 31a for effect control can specify the continuous number of times that the predetermined big hit game to which the entrance rate improvement state is given after the end is given (occurred).

  In the present embodiment, the production mode can be shifted with the main condition being after the end of the big hit game. The effect mode indicates an effect mode to be executed, mainly corresponding to the type of the background image of the effect display device 16 in the variable game, and can be easily recognized by the player from the background image. In addition, the effect mode can be executed over a plurality of continuous variation games.

Here, such an effect mode will be described below with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3, this embodiment has a plurality of types of effect modes with different effect modes. The plurality of types of effect modes include a first normal effect mode MA1, a second normal effect mode MB1, a third normal effect mode MC1, a first entrance rate improvement effect mode MA2, a second entrance rate improvement effect mode MB2, Seven types of 3 entrance rate improvement effect mode MC2 and 4th entrance rate improvement effect mode MD are included.

  The production modes MA1 to MC1 are production modes in the non-entrance rate improvement state, and the production modes MA2 to MC2 and MD are production modes in the entry rate improvement state. In the present embodiment, since the entrance rate improvement state is given after the end of the big hit game, when the transition to any of the effect modes MA2 to MC2 and the entrance rate improvement state is continued, the effect mode After staying in any of MA2 to MC2 and finishing the application of the improved entrance rate, the mode is shifted to any of the production modes MA1 to MC1.

  Moreover, each production mode MA1-MC1 and MA2-MC2 can be selected according to a player's operation. Specifically, in principle, when an effect category MA that can stay in the effect modes MA1 and MA2 is selected in accordance with the operation of the effect button BT, in the non-entrance rate improvement state, the entrance rate MA1 is entered. In the improved state, each stays in the production mode MA2. When an effect category MB that can stay in the effect modes MB1 and MB2 is selected according to the operation of the effect button BT, the effect mode MB1 is set in the non-entrance rate improvement state, and the effect mode MB2 is set in the entrance rate improvement state. Stay. When an effect category MC that can stay in the effect modes MC1 and MC2 is selected according to the operation of the effect button BT, the effect mode MC1 is set in the non-entrance rate improvement state, and the effect mode MC2 is set in the entrance rate improvement state. Stay.

  In the present embodiment, in the effect category MA (effect modes MA1, MA2), the effect from the viewpoint of country A, and in the effect classification MB (effect mode MB1, MB2), the effect from the viewpoint of country B is provided. In the effect category MC (effect modes MC1 and MC2), effects from the viewpoint of country C are respectively executed. That is, in each of the effect categories MA to MC, a related effect is executed, and the related effect can be selected according to the operation of the effect button BT.

  In addition, the effect mode MD is a mode in which a stay can be made when the entrance rate improvement state is given regardless of the effect classification when the special transition condition is established. In the present embodiment, the special transition condition is a condition that can be established by effect customization (effect customization C2) described later in detail.

  Here, the control of the effect mode executed by the effect control CPU 31a will be described below. In the present embodiment, the effect control CPU 31a that performs the control described below functions as effect mode control means.

  First, the effect control CPU 31a reads a value from the effect classification flag assigned to the effect control RAM 31c after the jackpot game is ended, and specifies the effect category selected in accordance with the operation of the effect button BT. This effect category flag is a flag indicating the selected effect category, and is also a flag indicating the category of the effect mode in which the user can stay. Then, the effect control CPU 31a sets data indicating any of the effect modes MA2 to MC2 corresponding to the effect classification in the effect mode flag assigned to the effect control RAM 31c. This effect mode flag is a flag indicating the effect mode in which the user stays. In addition, the production control CPU 31a specifies the production category in the same manner, triggered by the start of the variable game in which the application of the entrance rate improvement state ends, and indicates any of the production modes MA1 to MC1 corresponding to the production category. The data is set in the effect mode flag assigned to the effect control RAM 31c.

  In addition, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not an effect mode (effect classification) selection condition is satisfied. The condition for selecting the effect mode is established in accordance with the operation of the effect button BT when the variation game or the big hit game is not executed in the non-entrance rate improvement state and the selection image of the effect mode is displayed. There is a case. When it is determined that the conditions for selecting the effect mode are satisfied, the effect control CPU 31a sets the value indicating the effect classification according to the operation of the effect button BT in the effect classification flag, and corresponds to the effect classification. An effect mode setting process for setting the value indicating the effect mode in the effect mode flag is executed. In addition, when the special transition condition is satisfied, the effect control CPU 31a sets a value indicating the effect mode MD in the effect mode flag when the entrance rate improvement state is given regardless of the effect classification.

  In this way, the effect control CPU 31a controls the effect mode flag in the effect control RAM 31c, reads the value from the effect mode flag, specifies the effect mode, and displays various images such as a background image corresponding to the effect mode. The effect display device 16 is controlled so as to be displayed. That is, the effect control CPU 31a controls the effect mode in which the effect is executed in a predetermined effect mode.

Next, a variation pattern in the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 4, in the present embodiment, a plurality of variation patterns for specifying the variation time of the variation game are defined. These fluctuation patterns are selected mainly depending on whether or not a big hit is made and whether or not a reach effect is executed in the case of a loss. Specifically, the fluctuation patterns P11, P12, and P21 are defined as fluctuation patterns for deviation fluctuation. Further, the fluctuation patterns P13, P14, and P22 are defined as fluctuation patterns for deviation reach fluctuation. In addition, variation patterns P15, P16, and P23 are defined as variation patterns for large hit variation.

  Further, variation patterns P11 to P16 are defined as variation patterns that can be selected in the non-entrance rate improvement state, and variation patterns P21 to P23 are defined as variation patterns that can be selected in the entry rate improvement state.

  The change pattern P12 that can be selected in the non-entrance rate improvement state is a change pattern that shortens the change time of the change pattern P11. The change pattern P21 that can be selected in the improved entry rate state is a change pattern that further shortens the change time of the change pattern P12 that can be selected in the improved non-entry rate state. For this reason, the variation pattern in which the variation time is shortened is determined in the case where the entering rate is improved, compared to the case where the entering rate is not improved.

  In the present embodiment, each variation pattern is associated with a plurality of types of sub variation patterns. In particular, each variation pattern is associated with a sub variation pattern corresponding to the effect classification.

  As a specific example, the variation pattern P11 includes a sub variation pattern SP11A selected when the effect category MA is selected, a sub variation pattern SP11B selected when the effect category MB is selected, and an effect. The sub variation pattern SP11C selected when the classification MC is selected is associated with the sub MC.

  Further, as the variation pattern P23, the sub variation pattern SP23A selected when the effect category MA is selected, the sub variation pattern SP23B selected when the effect category MB is selected, and the effect category MC are selected. The sub variation pattern SP23C selected when the The variation pattern P23 is also associated with a sub variation pattern SP23D that is selected when the user is staying in the effect mode MD.

  As described above, when the variation pattern designation command is input, the effect control CPU 31a is based on the variation pattern designated by the variation pattern designation command and the selected effect category (the effect mode in which the user is staying). Therefore, the sub variation pattern is determined. Thereby, the CPU 31a for effect control not only displays the background image of the type corresponding to the selected effect category on the effect display device 16 by selecting the effect category according to the operation of the effect button BT. Various effect images such as the reach effect of the type corresponding to the selected effect category are displayed on the effect display device 16. In other words, the effect control CPU 31a controls the determination condition of the effect contents including the sub variation pattern based on the variation pattern so as to be changeable according to the operation of the effect button BT.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the execution of the variable game by the start winning of the game ball is put on hold, the big hit expectation degree of the variable game from various random numbers stored corresponding to the start hold ball by the start winning In addition, a pre-determination effect (pre-notice effect) indicating the degree of expectation of jackpot can be executed based on the result of the prior determination. In the present embodiment, based on the result of the pre-determination, a pre-reading effect for notifying that a big game is won in the variable game executed after the big game is completed is executed.

  Here, the prefetch command setting process executed by the main control CPU 30a will be described with reference to FIG. This prefetch command setting process is a process of setting a prefetch command as information specified by the result of referring to various random numbers. In addition, the prefetch command setting process is executed immediately after the special symbol input process is finished, triggered by the winning of a game ball in each of the start winning ports 21a and 22a in a state where the number of reserved memories is not the upper limit. This pre-read command setting process determines whether or not the various random numbers acquired in the special symbol input process with the winnings at the start winning ports 21a and 22a match a predetermined determination value. This is a process of determining (in advance) before the game is executed.

  First, as shown in FIG. 5, the main control CPU 30a determines whether or not the restriction condition is satisfied, such as when the number of reserved memories is an upper limit value or when a big hit game is being played (step S101). . If the determination result is affirmative (the restriction condition is satisfied), the main control CPU 30a ends the prefetch command setting process without executing steps S102 and S103. If this determination result is negative (regulation conditions are not satisfied), the main control CPU 30a proceeds to step S102.

  In step S102, the main control CPU 30a refers to various random numbers corresponding to the reserved storage number. Then, the main control CPU 30a sets a prefetch command in the main control RAM 30c based on the reference result (step S103), and ends the prefetch command setting process.

  More specifically, the main control CPU 30a reads the value of the random number for hit determination stored in correspondence with the number of reserved storages, and determines the big hit determination value and the hit determination random number corresponding to whether or not the probability variation state is given. It is determined whether or not the value matches.

  When the main control CPU 30a determines that the jackpot determination value and the value of the random number for winning determination match, the main control CPU 30a reads the random number for special symbol distribution stored in correspondence with the reserved storage number, and based on the read value, Identify the type of jackpot.

As described above, when it is determined that the big hit determination value and the value of the random number for winning determination are the same, the prefetch command for designating the big hit, the type of the big hit, and the number of reserved memories is determined.
In particular, the main control CPU 30a determines whether or not the jackpot determination value corresponding to when the probability variation state is given matches the value of the random number for winning judgment, and the jackpot determination corresponding to when the probability variation state is not given. It is determined whether or not the value matches the value of the hit determination random number. The main control CPU 30a determines a look-ahead command that can specify whether it will be a big hit regardless of whether or not it is in the probability changing state, or only if it is in the probability changing state. In the present embodiment, since all of the jackpot determination values corresponding to when the probability variation state is not provided are included in a part of the jackpot determination values corresponding to the probability variation state, You won't be a big hit only when you're not in a state.

  On the other hand, if the main control CPU 30a determines that the jackpot determination value does not match the value of the hit determination random number, the main control CPU 30a reads the value of the reach determination random number stored in correspondence with the reserved storage number, and determines the reach determination. It is determined whether or not the value matches the value of the reach determination random number, and whether or not a reach state is formed is specified. In the present embodiment, since the same reach determination value is defined regardless of the number of reserved memories, it is not a configuration in which it is not determined whether or not the reach state is formed until the execution of the variable game is started. .

  As described above, when it is determined that the big hit determination value and the random number for winning determination do not match, whether or not the big hit is determined, whether or not the loss reach fluctuation pattern is determined, and the prefetch command for designating the number of reserved memories is determined. The

  That is, with the winning of the game ball at each start winning opening 21a, 22a, before starting the variable game based on the winning, various random numbers acquired with the winning as a trigger are referred to in advance, and the result of the reference Is determined. With such a pre-read command, it is possible to specify whether or not a big hit is made according to whether or not a probable change state is given, whether or not the type of big hit, outlier reach fluctuation, and the current number of pending storages can be specified. Become.

  Thereafter, in a process different from the prefetch command setting process, the main control CPU 30a outputs the prefetch command set in the main control RAM 30c in step S103 to the effect control board 31 (effect control CPU 31a) at a predetermined timing. . That is, the main control CPU 30a determines a hit determination random number (a big hit determination) stored in association with a start hold indicating the variable game that is suspended before it is determined whether the variable game is a big hit. The prefetch command (information) specified by the (random number) is output. In the present embodiment, when a prefetch command is output, a hold designation command is output before that.

  Further, when the prefetch command and the hold designation command are input, the effect control CPU 31a specifies the number of reserved memories from the prefetch command, and stores the prefetch command in the effect control RAM 31c corresponding to the number of reserved memories.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, the production | presentation point for performing control regarding the production | presentation aspect of the production to be performed can be acquired. In particular, such effect points are accumulatively acquired when a predetermined point acquisition condition is established, and the effect mode is changed according to the operation of the effect button BT (so-called "" Production customization ") becomes possible. In the present embodiment, as a result of the battle with the acquisition card in the big hit game, the country stealing effect for acquiring the territory is executed. Then, until the end of giving the entrance rate improvement state, the national theft effect is executed every time a jackpot game is awarded, and the effect can be customized by the cumulatively acquired number of territories (accumulated national power points). In the present embodiment, this accumulated national power point corresponds to a production point.

Here, the display mode of the display effect in the effect display device 16 will be described with reference to FIGS.

This strength point is a point corresponding to the type of card image to be displayed, and is defined so that the strength point increases when the value of the type of card image is high. And the national power point acquired will be determined according to the combined strength point corresponding to a some card image. That is, by displaying the card image, the value of the type of the card image, that is, the strength point can be specified, and the national strength point acquired in the current jackpot game is suggested.

  Similarly, the card image of the character is displayed in the sixth round game. In the ninth round game, a character card image, an item card image, and a military card image are displayed.

  Then, in the 10th round game, a card image battle is performed, and the national power points acquired in this jackpot game and the cumulative national power points acquired in a cumulative manner (shown as “cumulative national power P” in the figure). Is notified. Finally, in the eleventh round game, effect customization is executed based on the accumulated national power points.

  In this way, during the jackpot game, in the third, sixth, and ninth round games (first round game), the strength points are notified, and after the acquired national power points are suggested, the tenth round game ( In the second round game), the acquired national power point and the accumulated national power point are notified. Then, in the eleventh round game (third round game), it is possible to execute effect customization based on the accumulated national power points.

  Here, the card lottery control process executed by the effect control CPU 31a will be described with reference to FIG. This card lottery control process is executed every predetermined period. The effect control CPU 31a that executes such processing functions as effect point lottery means.

  As shown in FIG. 12, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not a special winning command has been input (step S11). When it is determined that the big prize command is not input, the effect control CPU 31a ends the card lottery control process without executing steps S12 to S16. On the other hand, if it is determined that a special winning command has been input, the effect control CPU 31a executes a special winning counting process (step S12), and proceeds to step S13. In this process, the effect control CPU 31a counts the number of times that the big prize command is inputted after the round command is inputted. That is, in each round game, the number of game balls that enter the big winning device 23 is counted in an identifiable manner.

  In step S <b> 13, the effect control CPU 31 a determines whether or not a specified number of game balls in a specific round game have entered the grand prize winning device 23. In this process, the effect control CPU 31a can specify the number of round games by inputting a round command, and determines whether a specified number of game balls have entered according to the number of balls counted by the big winning counting process in step S12. It can be specified.

  In the present embodiment, the third round game, the sixth round, and the ninth round game are equivalent as the specific round game, and the prescribed number is the fifth round in the third round and the sixth round game. The second ball, the fifth ball, and the eighth ball in the round game are respectively equivalent.

  When it is determined that the prescribed number of game balls in a specific round game has not entered the grand prize winning device 23, the effect control CPU 31a ends the card lottery control process without executing steps S14 to S16. To do. On the other hand, if it is determined that a specified number of game balls in a specific round game have entered the big prize device 23, the effect control CPU 31a performs a card lottery process for performing a card lottery to determine a card image. Is executed (step S14), and the process proceeds to step S15. In this processing, the effect control CPU 31a reads the value of the effect classification flag, determines any one of a plurality of types of card images based on the selected effect classification, and stores it in the effect control RAM 31c. In particular, the CPU 31a for effect control determines a card image having a low value with a higher probability than a card image having a high value as the type of card image.

  As shown in FIG. 13 (a), as a plurality of types of card images, a character, a card, and a military card image are defined, and an effect classification and a type are defined for each card image. As the effect category, based on the value of the effect category flag, information that can be selected when any of the effect categories MA to MC is selected, and any of the effect categories MA to MC is selected. Possible information (shown as “common” in the figure) is defined. In addition, the value of the card image is defined as the type, and a normal card (shown as “N” in the figure), a rare card (shown as “R” in the figure), and a super rare card (shown in the figure). And a super super rare card (shown as “SSR” in the figure). Further, it is stipulated that the value of the card image increases in the order of normal card, rare card, super rare card, and super super rare card.

  In this embodiment, if it is specified that the fifth ball in the third and sixth round games and the third ball in the ninth round game have entered the big winning device 23, the card image of the character is determined. The Further, when it is determined that the fifth ball in the ninth round game has entered the grand prize winning device 23, the card image of the item is determined, and the fifth ball in the ninth round game has entered the grand prize winning device 23. If it is determined that it has been, the card image of the military power is determined. In step S14, it is defined that the card image of the character Y1 is not selected.

  In this way, the effect control CPU 31a determines a card image in response to at least one of a plurality of game balls entering the grand prize winning device 23 in a predetermined round game (unit round game). A lottery will be held. That is, the strength point is determined by determining the card image to be displayed on the effect display device 16, and the national power point is determined by adding the determined strength points. Therefore, the effect control CPU 31a performs the lottery regarding the national power point. It becomes.

  Returning to the description of the card lottery control process, in step S15 of FIG. 12, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not there is a variable game that is a big hit in the hold. In this process, the effect control CPU 31a specifies whether or not a probable change state is given after the big hit game ends from the special figure designation command when the big hit is reached. Then, the effect control CPU 31a reads a prefetch command corresponding to the variable game for which execution is suspended, and after the big hit game is finished, the prefetch command that becomes a big hit is determined according to whether or not the probability variation state is given. Whether or not there is a fluctuating game that is a big hit in the hold is determined depending on whether or not there is. Step S15 is executed only when it is specified that the second ball in the ninth round game has entered the big winning device 23, and is not executed otherwise.

  If it is determined that there is no variable game that is a big hit within the hold, the CPU 31a for effect control ends the card lottery control process without executing step S16. On the other hand, if it is determined that there is a variable game that is a big hit in the hold, the effect control CPU 31a executes a card replacement process for replacing the card image of the super super rare character Y1 (step S16). Then, the card lottery control process is terminated.

  In a process different from the card lottery control process, the effect control CPU 31a reads information indicating the card image determined by the card lottery control process and stored in the effect control RAM 31c, and the card image is displayed on the effect display device 16. Control the display. In this way, by displaying the card image on the effect display device 16, the strength points corresponding to the type of the card image are notified in a identifiable manner. The national power points to be acquired are determined by adding the strength points corresponding to the displayed card image. In other words, by determining the card image, a card lottery for determining the strength points is performed, and the national power points to be acquired are determined based on the determined strength points. That is, the effect control CPU 31a suggests national power points (effect points) to be acquired by causing the effect display device 16 to display a card image. The effect control CPU 31a for executing such processing functions as a notification control means.

  Here, the national power point calculation process executed by the effect control CPU 31a will be described with reference to FIG. This national power point calculation process is executed at predetermined intervals. The effect control CPU 31a for executing such processing functions as effect point control means.

  As shown in FIG. 14, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not the game is a prescribed round game based on the input of the round command (step S21). In the present embodiment, the specified round game corresponds to the tenth round game. If it is determined that the game is not a prescribed round game, the effect control CPU 31a ends the national power point calculation process without executing steps S22 and S23. On the other hand, when it is determined that the game is a prescribed round game, the effect control CPU 31a executes a process of calculating the national power points acquired in the current jackpot game (step S22). Then, the effect control CPU 31a adds the calculated national power points to the accumulated national power point counter assigned to the effect control RAM 31c, thereby adding the calculated national power points as cumulatively acquired accumulated national power points (step). S23), the national power point calculation process is terminated.

  As shown in FIG. 13B, the card image type (value) and the strength points are associated with each other. Moreover, as shown in FIG.13 (c), a combined strength point and the national power point acquired by this big hit game are matched.

  The strength points corresponding to the value of each card image determined in the card lottery control process are added together, and the combined strength points are calculated. Then, national power points corresponding to the combined strength points will be acquired in this big hit game. Thus, the national power points to be acquired in the current big hit game are determined as “1” to “3” according to the type of the card image determined by the lottery in the card lottery control process.

  In the present embodiment, when each card image determined in the card lottery control process includes a super-super rare card image, the national power acquired in the current jackpot game regardless of the other card images. The point is determined as “8”. Further, in the present embodiment, when a specified number of game balls have not entered the big winning device 23 in a specific round game, such as when the game is interrupted by the player, the minimum national power point “1”. Is acquired.

  In this way, when the big hit game is generated, the effect control CPU 31a is based on the lottery result in the card lottery control process triggered by the entry of the game ball into the big prize device 23 due to establishment of the point acquisition condition. In addition to acquiring national power points in the jackpot game, the control is performed to acquire cumulative national power points cumulatively. In particular, when the prefetch command that is a big hit is stored, the CPU 31a for effect control obtains a national power point that is larger than when the prefetch command that is a big hit is not stored.

  In a process different from the national power point calculation process, the effect control CPU 31a displays, on the effect display device 16, an image showing the national power points acquired in the big hit game this time by the national power point calculation process or the calculated accumulated national power points. To control. In this way, the effect control CPU 31a controls the effect display device 16 to display a card image and suggest a national power point to be acquired, and then display an image showing the national power point to notify the national power point. It will be. The effect control CPU 31a for executing such processing functions as a notification control means.

Here, with reference to FIG. 15, the effect customization control process performed by the effect control CPU 31a will be described.
The effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not the customization execution condition is satisfied (step S31). If it is determined that the customization execution condition (specific condition) is not satisfied, the effect control CPU 31a ends the effect customization control process without executing step S32. On the other hand, when it is determined that the customization execution condition is satisfied, the effect control CPU 31a performs effect customization execution processing for changing the effect mode in accordance with the selected effect customization type (step S32). The production customization control process is terminated.

  In the present embodiment, one type of effect customization can be selected in the eleventh round game in the jackpot game, and until the next jackpot game is given or until the grant rate improvement state is given. The selected production customization is continuously executed.

  As shown in FIG. 16, in this embodiment, production customizations C1 to C6 are defined as types of production customization. In addition, selectable conditions that allow selection are defined in the production customizations C1 to C6. In FIG. 16, the effect customization is simply indicated as “customization”.

  The effect customization C1 is an effect content that changes the effect mode of the jackpot finalizing effect for deterministically informing that a jackpot game will occur. Specifically, the normal jackpot definite sound output from the speaker SP is special. The content of the production is changed to a big hit definite sound.

  The production customization C1 does not define conditions relating to accumulated national power points. In other words, the customization execution condition for the effect customization C1 stipulates that the effect customization C1 is selected in accordance with the operation of the effect button in the eleventh round game.

  Thus, when the customization execution condition for the effect customization C1 is established, the effect control CPU 31a stores a value indicating that the effect customization C1 is determined in the effect control RAM 31c in step S32. Then, in a process different from the effect customization control process, the effect control CPU 31a inputs a variation pattern designation command when a value indicating that the effect customization C1 is determined in the entrance rate improvement state. As a trigger, the sub-variation pattern is determined as usual. In addition, when the value indicating that the effect customization C1 is determined is set in the entrance rate improvement state, the effect control CPU 31a is triggered by an input of a change pattern specifying command in which a change pattern to be a big hit is specified. Next, a jackpot definitive sound lottery for determining the output of the jackpot definitive sound (execution of the jackpot definite effect) is performed. Then, the effect control CPU 31a performs control to output a specified special jackpot sound when the jackpot sound determination lottery is won. Even if the value indicating that the effect customization C1 has been determined is not set, the effect control CPU 31a is triggered by the input of the variation pattern designation command in which the variation pattern to be the big hit is designated. When a final decision lottery is performed and the winning combination is won, control is performed to output a specified normal jackpot final decision sound.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the effect control CPU 31a performs a big hit decisive sound lottery in response to the input of a variation pattern designation command that becomes a big hit in the improved entrance rate. The jackpot fixed sound lottery table shown in 17 (a) is referred to.

  As shown in FIG. 17 (a), the accumulated national power points are associated with the winning probabilities of the big hit decisive sound lottery. Then, the effect control CPU 31a reads the value from the accumulated national power point counter, specifies the accumulated national power point, and performs the big hit decisive sound lottery with the winning probability corresponding to the accumulated national power point. In other words, the effect control CPU 31a determines the output of the jackpot definite sound with different probabilities based on the accumulated national power points (establishment of the customization execution condition). In particular, the production control CPU 31a determines the output of the big hit definite sound with a high probability when the accumulated national power point becomes large. In other words, the effect control CPU 31a determines the output of the jackpot definite sound with a high probability in stages depending on the degree of establishment of the customization execution condition. In the present embodiment, even when the accumulated national power point is “31” or more, when the effect customization C6 is selected, the control by the effect customization C6 has priority.

  As shown in FIG. 16, the effect customization C6 is the effect content in which the output of the big hit definite sound has the highest probability (100% in the present embodiment), specifically, the input of the variation pattern designation command that becomes the big hit. As a trigger, it is the content of the production in which a big hit definite sound is output.

  The production customization C6 can be selected when the accumulated national power point reaches the upper limit “40”. In other words, the customization execution condition for the production customization C6 stipulates that the production customization C6 is selected according to the operation of the production button in the eleventh round game on the assumption that the accumulated national power point has reached “40”. Has been.

  Thus, when the customization execution condition for the effect customization C6 is established, the effect control CPU 31a stores a value indicating that the effect customization C6 has been determined in the effect control RAM 31c in step S32. Then, in a process different from the effect customization control process, the effect control CPU 31a designates a variation pattern that is a big hit if a value indicating that the effect customization C6 is determined in the entrance rate improvement state. In response to the input of the command, it is determined that a jackpot definite sound is to be output, and control for outputting the jackpot definite sound is performed.

  The effect customization C2 is an effect content that makes it possible to execute a dedicated effect. Specifically, it is the content of the effect in which the background image is changed or the sub variation pattern is changed by shifting from any of the effect modes MA2 to MC2 to the effect mode MD.

  The production customization C2 can be selected when the accumulated national power point is “5” or more. In other words, the customization execution condition for the production customization C2 is that the production customization C2 is selected according to the operation of the production button in the eleventh round game on the assumption that the accumulated national power point is “5” or more. Has been.

  As described above, when the customization execution condition for the effect customization C2 is satisfied, the effect control CPU 31a stores a value indicating that the effect customization C2 is determined in the effect control RAM 31c and sets the effect mode flag in step S32. A value indicating the production mode MD is stored. Then, in a process different from the effect customization control process, the effect control CPU 31a displays a background image corresponding to the effect mode MD on the effect display device 16, and based on the variation pattern designated by the variation pattern designation command. The sub variation pattern corresponding to the production mode MD is determined.

  The effect customization C3 is an effect content that enables execution of a branch effect that can avoid pinch. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 18, the branch effect is not executed in the normal time when the effect customization C3 is not selected, but can be executed when the effect customization C3 is selected.

  The production customization C3 can be selected when the accumulated national power point is “10” or more. In other words, the customization execution condition for the production customization C2 is that the production customization C3 is selected according to the operation of the production button in the eleventh round game on the assumption that the accumulated national power point is “10” or more. Has been.

  As shown in FIG. 18A, in a normal time, when a variable game is started at the timing indicated by reference symbol T1, execution of an advantageous effect or an adverse effect may be started at the timing indicated by reference symbol T2. And an advantageous effect and an unfavorable effect are performed until the timing shown by the code | symbol T5, and a variable game is complete | finished at the timing shown by the code | symbol T6. Under normal circumstances, an advantageous performance can be executed when a probabilistic big hit, a non-probable big hit, and a deviation (including outlier reach fluctuation and outlier fluctuation) are possible, but a disadvantageous production is when a non-probable big hit and out It is feasible.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 18B, when a variable game is started at the timing indicated by reference numeral T1 at the time of customization, the execution of advantageous effects and disadvantageous effects is started at the timing indicated by reference numeral T2. There is a case. And unlike the normal time, the branch effect is executed at the timing indicated by the symbol T3 before the timing indicated by the symbol T5. Then, the branch effect is executed until the timing indicated by the symbol T4, and as a result, there are a case where it proceeds to an advantageous effect and a case where a disadvantageous effect is continued. Then, an advantageous effect and an unfavorable effect are executed by the timing indicated by reference numeral T5, and the variable game ends at the timing indicated by reference numeral T6. At the time of customization, even if a disadvantageous effect is executed at the timing indicated by reference numeral T2, it may proceed to an advantageous effect after the branch effect is executed. For this reason, the disadvantageous effect is an effect that becomes an uncertain change big hit and a loss when it is executed after the end of the branch effect.

  In this way, when the customization execution condition for the effect customization C3 is established, in step S32, the effect control CPU 31a stores a value indicating that the effect customization C3 is determined in the effect control RAM 31c. Then, in a process different from the effect customization control process, the effect control CPU 31a inputs a variation pattern designation command when a value indicating that the effect customization C3 is determined in the entrance rate improvement state. As a trigger, the sub-variation pattern is determined as usual. Further, if the effect control CPU 31a determines that the disadvantaged effect is to be executed with a predetermined probability when a value indicating that the effect customization C3 is determined in the entrance rate improvement state, the branching is performed. The production is controlled to be executable.

  In particular, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not the probability variation jackpot is based on the variation pattern designated by the variation pattern designation command and the special symbol (big hit) type designated by the special figure designation command. Whether it is or will be out of place.

  Then, when the value indicating that the effect customization C3 is determined is not set, the effect control CPU 31a performs control so as not to select an unfavorable effect in the variable game that wins the probable big hit. As a result, after a disadvantageous effect is executed, there is no chance of a big hit. On the other hand, when the value indicating that the effect customization C3 has been determined is set, the effect control CPU 31a controls the disadvantageous effect so that it can be selected in the variable game that is won in the probable big hit. In this case, the effect control CPU 31a executes the effect so that the branch effect is executed after the disadvantageous effect is executed, and further, the advantageous effect is executed.

  The effect customization C4 is performed when an operation effect for determining whether the operation is valid or invalid according to the operation of the effect button BT in the operation valid period, and when there is no operation of the effect button BT. It is the content of the effect determined that the operation was effective.

  The production customization C4 can be selected when the accumulated national power point is “15” or more. In other words, the customization execution condition for the production customization C4 is that the production customization C4 is selected according to the operation of the production button in the eleventh round game, assuming that the accumulated national power point is “15” or more. Has been.

  As shown in FIG. 19A, in the normal time, the operation effective period starts at the timing indicated by reference numeral T11, and the timing operation effective period indicated by reference numeral T13 ends. Then, in the operation effective period, when the effect button BT is single-operated at the timing indicated by T12, it is determined that the operation is valid according to the single operation. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 19 (b), when the effect button BT is not operated simply until the timing indicated by the symbol T13 when the operation valid period ends, it is determined to be invalid.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 19 (c), when the effect customization C4 is determined, the effect button BT is not operated until the timing indicating the code T13 when the operation valid period ends. However, it is determined to be effective.

  When the operation effect is executed, the effect is executed in different effect modes depending on whether it is determined to be valid or invalid. That is, the operation effect is determined to be valid or invalid according to the operation of the effect button BT in a predetermined operation valid period in the variable game, and the effect mode is changed according to the determination result. It can be said that it is a production.

  Thus, when the customization execution condition for the effect customization C4 is established, the effect control CPU 31a stores a value indicating that the effect customization C4 is determined in the effect control RAM 31c in step S32. Then, in a process different from the effect customization control process, the effect control CPU 31a inputs the variation pattern designation command even if the value indicating that the effect customization C4 is determined is set in the entrance rate improvement state. As a trigger, the sub-variation pattern is determined as usual. In addition, when it is determined that the operation effect is to be executed with a predetermined probability, the effect control CPU 31a performs control so that the operation effect can be executed.

  When the value indicating that the effect customization C4 is determined is not set in the entrance rate improvement state, when the operation effect is executed, a signal from the effect button BT in a predetermined operation valid period When a predetermined operation mode is detected based on the effect control CPU 31a determines that the operation is valid. On the other hand, if the predetermined operation mode is not detected based on the signal from the effect button BT in the operation effective period, the effect control CPU 31a determines that the operation is invalid.

  In addition, when a value indicating that the effect customization C4 is determined is set in the entrance rate improvement state, when the operation effect is executed, a signal from the effect button BT is determined during a predetermined operation valid period. Even if the predetermined operation mode is not detected based on the above, the effect control CPU 31a determines that the operation is valid.

  In other words, the effect control CPU 31a performs control so that an operation effect that changes the effect mode according to the operation of the effect button BT can be executed in a predetermined operation valid period in the variable game. Then, the effect control CPU 31a can change the conditions for determining the effect contents of the operation effect according to the operation of the effect button BT before the operation effective period in the operation effect starts, apart from the operation in the operation effect. Will be controlled.

  The production customization C5 is production contents in which three types of production customization C1 to C3 are combined. Specifically, in the effect customization C5, the normal jackpot definite sound output from the speaker SP is changed to a special jackpot definite sound, the branch effect can be executed, and further, the effect is changed to the effect mode MD. The content of the effect in which the change of the background image and the change of the sub variation pattern are performed.

  The effect customization C5 can be selected when the accumulated national power point is “20” or more. That is, the customization execution condition of the production customization C5 is defined as that the production customization C5 is selected in accordance with the operation of the production button in the eleventh round game on the assumption that the accumulated national power point is “20” or more. Has been.

  As described above, when the customization execution condition for the effect customization C5 is established, in step S32, the effect control CPU 31a stores a value indicating that the effect customization C1 to C3 has been determined in the effect control RAM 31c. In a process different from the effect customization control process, the effect control CPU 31a performs the same control as when each of the effect customizations C1 to C3 is determined.

  That is, the effect control CPU 31a changes any one of the plurality of types of effect customizations C1 to C6 according to the operation of the effect button BT. In particular, the effect control CPU 31a selects one of the effect customizations C1 to C4 and C6 in accordance with the operation of the effect button BT, so that one kind of effect customization among the plurality of kinds of effect customization C1 to C4 and C6 is performed. Control (first control) to execute is performed.

  On the other hand, the CPU 31a for effect control executes three kinds of effect customization C1 to C3 among the plurality of kinds of effect customization C1 to C4 and C6 by selecting the effect customization C5 in accordance with the operation of the effect button BT. Control (second control) to be performed. In the present embodiment, the effect control CPU 31a that executes such processing functions as effect element control means, and the effect modes that can be changed by each of the effect customizations C1 to C4 and C6 correspond to effect elements. That is, the effect control CPU 31a changes the effect mode based on the effect element to be changed.

  As described above, the effect control CPU 31a controls the effect aspect of the effect to be changeable based on the cumulatively acquired national power points. In particular, when the customization execution condition is established according to the operation of the effect button BT, the effect control CPU 31a controls the effect content determination condition to be changeable based on the determined effect customization. In other words, when the customization execution condition is established according to the operation of the effect button BT, the effect control CPU 31a changes the sub variation pattern based on the determined effect customization. Control the content decision conditions to be changeable.

  In the present embodiment, the customization execution condition as the specific condition is a condition relating to the jackpot game, which can be established based on the fact that the accumulated national power points have reached the specified points defined in a plurality of stages. It can also be established according to the operation of the BT.

  (2) In the variable game, an operation effect that varies the effect mode according to the operation of the effect button BT in a predetermined operation valid period is controlled to be executable. In addition, the condition for determining the effect contents of the operation effect is controlled so as to be changeable according to the player's operation before the operation effective period is started. For this reason, by the time the operation effective period starts, the condition for determining the effect contents of the operation effect can be easily changed by the player, and the interest in the game can be improved.

  (3) A sub variation pattern for determining the contents of the production of the variation game is determined. In particular, at least one of the sub-variable patterns that can be determined is controlled to be changeable according to the player's operation. Therefore, the sub-variable pattern that can be determined can be easily changed by the player, and the interest in the game can be improved.

  (4) When one effect customization is determined according to the player's operation, the first control for changing one kind of effect element among a plurality of kinds of effect elements and two or more kinds of effect elements are changed. The second control to be performed can be executed. Based on the effect element to be changed, at least one of the sub-variable patterns that can be determined is controlled to be changeable. For this reason, it can be operated by the player whether to change one kind of effect element or to change two or more kinds of effect elements among a plurality of kinds of effect elements.

  (5) Since the second control can be executed according to the player's operation by the establishment of the customization execution condition based on the accumulated national power point, 1 according to the player's operation when the customization execution condition is satisfied. By determining one production customization, two or more types of production elements can be changed, and an interest in the game can be improved.

  (6) The customization execution condition can be established based on the accumulated national power points that are accumulatively acquired when a game ball enters the big winning device 23. For this reason, the further expectation with respect to the game ball entering into the big winning device 23 can be enhanced, and the interest in the game can be improved.

  (7) In the case where the control of the entrance rate improvement state in which the big hit game is likely to occur is performed, the sub variation pattern that can be determined is controlled to be changeable according to the player's operation. For this reason, in a situation where a big hit game is likely to occur, the sub-variable pattern that can be determined can be easily changed by the player, and the interest in the game can be improved.

  (8) A lottery related to the acquisition of national power points is performed in response to the entry of a game ball into the grand prize winning device 23. Based on the lottery result, control for acquiring the national power points is performed, and a notification regarding the national power points is issued. Control is performed. And based on the acquired national power point, the production mode of the production is controlled to be changeable.

For this reason, attention can be given to the national power points acquired when a predetermined jackpot game is generated, and the interest in the game can be improved.

In addition, the said embodiment can be embodied in another embodiment (another example) as follows.
-In the above-mentioned embodiment, although the big hit fixed sound lottery was performed based on the accumulation national power point, it is not restricted to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 17 (b), a jackpot fixed sound lottery may be performed based on the number of consecutive resorts, and the accumulated national power points in the above embodiment may be appropriately read as the number of consecutive resorts. Also good. Further, for example, a combination thereof may be used.

  In the above embodiment, when the production customization C4 is determined, it is determined that the operation is valid at that timing even if no single operation is detected by the timing indicated by the symbol T13 when the operation effective period ends. Not limited to this. For example, it may be determined to be valid at the timing indicated by reference numeral T13 at which the operation effective period starts, or may be determined to be effective at the time when a specified time has elapsed after the operation effective period has started.

  In the above-described embodiment, the operation effect is determined to determine whether the operation is valid or invalid depending on whether the single operation is performed during the operation effective period. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 19 (d), an operation effect may be executed to determine whether the operation is valid or invalid depending on whether or not the repeated operation is performed during the operation effective period. In this case, when the production customization C4 has not been determined, it is determined to be effective when a specified number of repeated hitting operations are detected at the timing indicated by reference numeral T12, and the predetermined number of repeated hitting operations are performed by the timing indicated by reference numeral T13. If not detected, it is determined to be invalid. On the other hand, when the production customization C4 is determined, it is determined that the operation is effective even if the specified number of repeated hitting operations are not detected by the timing indicated by reference numeral T13. For example, as shown in FIG. 19 (e), an operation effect may be executed to determine whether the operation is valid or invalid depending on whether a long press operation is performed during the operation effective period. In this case, when the production customization C4 has not been determined, it is determined that it is valid when a long-pressing operation for a specified time is detected at the timing indicated by T12, and the long-pressing operation for the specified time is performed by the timing indicated by T13. If not detected, it is determined to be invalid. On the other hand, when the production customization C4 is determined, it is determined that the operation is effective even if the long pressing operation for the specified time is not detected by the timing indicated by the reference numeral T13.

  In the above embodiment, the production customization can be performed so that the branch production is always executed after the execution of the disadvantageous production is started, but not limited thereto, for example, after the execution of the disadvantageous production is started. There may be a case where the branch effect is not executed. In this case, for example, if the production customization C3 is determined, the execution of the branch production may be determined with a higher probability than the case where the probability variation big hit is caused or the case where the non-probability variation big hit is obtained. As a result, when the branch effect is executed after the disadvantage effect is executed, the possibility that the advantageous effect is executed is increased, and the expectation for the probable big hit due to the execution of the branch effect can be increased.

  In the above embodiment, for example, during execution of a branch effect, the destination effect may be varied according to the operation of the effect button BT. As a specific example, when a disadvantageous effect is executed, if an operation of the effect button BT is not detected, the disadvantageous effect is executed after the branch effect is executed only when the probability is not big hit. Good.

  In the above embodiment, the advantageous effect and the disadvantageous effect are executed depending on whether the probable big hit or the non-probable big hit is made, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the reach production includes a normal reach production and a super reach production that develops from normal reach to super reach. And the fluctuation pattern corresponding to the outlier reach fluctuation is defined. In addition, the super reach production is defined such that the expectation of jackpot is higher than the normal reach production. In this case, when developing from normal reach to super reach, an effect corresponding to a branch effect may be executed. Then, when the variation pattern of the jackpot fluctuation in which the super reach effect is executed is determined, the branch effect is executed with a higher probability than in the case where the fluctuation pattern of the outlier reach change is determined in which the super reach effect is executed. It is prescribed as follows. As a result, when the branching effect is executed, it becomes easy to win a big hit when it develops to super reach, and the branching effect can be executed as an effect with a high expectation degree of the big hit.

  -In the above embodiment, a plurality of types of specified points are specified, and the jackpot finalizing effect is executed with different probabilities depending on whether the accumulated national power points have reached any of the specified points, but not limited to this. For example, the jackpot finalizing effect may be executed with the same probability. In addition, for example, as the cumulative national power point increases, the probability that the jackpot finalizing effect is executed increases stepwise. However, the probability is not limited to this, and may be the same or lower. Good. Further, for example, one type of specified point may be specified.

  In the above embodiment, the jackpot sound is always output by the effect customization C6. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, it does not matter whether or not a big hit decisive sound lottery is performed.
