Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a gaming machine (rotational gaming machine, slot machine) having a plurality of reels having symbols arranged on an outer peripheral surface is known. This type of gaming machine gives a certain game value to game media such as medals and pachinko balls, and performs a game for acquiring such game media. In addition, this type of gaming machine performs an internal lottery based on the player's operation, displays the game result using a combination of symbols arranged on the reel based on the result of the internal lottery, and displays the game result. A function for paying out medals is provided.

  In addition, the above gaming machines are generally controlled by a main board and a sub board, and the main board has an internal lottery for determining whether or not a winning combination, a control for rotating and stopping a reel, and a game in accordance with winning a winning combination. Control related to the progress of the game, such as control for paying out the medium, is performed, and the sub-board performs control for causing the effect device to produce an effect according to the progress of the game. Since the main board performs control related to the acquisition performance of game media, input of signals to the main board is limited, and transmission of signals from the main board to the sub board is possible. Transmission of signals to the board is impossible.

  And in recent years, using the effects performed according to the result of the internal lottery on the sub-board, acquisition of game media that changes the winning probability of the role without changing the winning probability of the role in the internal lottery performed on the main board Game machines equipped with performance are gaining popularity. Specifically, when the production state is changed by lottery or the like performed on the sub-board side, and the production state is the assist time state (AT state), the production state is performed by performing the production that assists the winning of the role by the production device. A technique is adopted in which the winning rate of the winning combination is increased when the player is in the assist time state (see Patent Document 1).

  Conventionally, according to a change in the gaming state controlled by the main board, the main board notifies the external device such as a hall computer or a data counter that a specific game section has started, thereby controlling the operating status of the gaming machine. The management method is known. For example, when transitioning to a bonus state in which a bonus medium can be expected to be obtained as a result of winning a bonus, the player is notified of the bonus state as a game segment advantageous to the player by notifying an external device that the bonus state has started. The number of transitions to game segments that are advantageous to the game was counted.

The lottery flag setting information is stored in the lottery flag storage unit 192 of the main memory 190M. In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, in the second bonus state, the lottery flags for all small roles are exceptionally set to the winning state regardless of the result of the internal lottery.

  In addition, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, a lottery flag (carry-over possible flag) that can carry on the winning state for the next game until winning, and a non-winning state without carrying the winning state on the next game regardless of winning. A lottery flag (a carry-over impossible flag) that is reset to the winning state is prepared. A bonus is associated with the former carry-over possible flag, and a small combination and replay are associated with the latter carry-over impossible flag. That is, in the lottery flag setting process, if any bonus is won in the internal lottery, the winning state of the lottery flag of the bonus is carried over until the bonus is won. At this time, the internal lottery means 120 performs an internal lottery to determine whether or not a small role and replay are successful even in a game where the winning state of the bonus lottery flag is carried over. In other words, in the lottery flag setting process, if a small role or replay is won in a game in which the winning state of one of the bonus lottery flags is carried over, the winning lottery flag and internal lottery of the already won bonus will be won. The lottery flags corresponding to two or more types of combinations including the small combination and the replay lottery flag are set to the winning state.

  The reel control means 130 starts rotation driving of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 by a stepping motor based on a start signal from a start switch 230 that is actuated by a game start operation to the start lever SL by the player. Press the stop buttons B1 to B3 (stop operation means) corresponding to the reels in which the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are normally rotating at a predetermined speed (about 80 rpm: a rotation speed of about 80 rotations per minute). The control which makes the stop operation by this effective is performed, and the control which stops the 1st reel R1-3rd reel R3 rotationally driven by the stepping motor in the aspect according to the setting state (result of an internal lottery) of a lottery flag I do.

  The reel controller 130 stops the reel from the stop switch 240 when the stop switch 240 is actuated when the player presses the stop buttons B1 to B3 in a state where the stop operation for the stop buttons B1 to B3 is enabled. Based on the signal, the supply of the drive pulse (motor drive signal) to the stepping motor of the reel unit 310 is stopped to perform control to stop each of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3.

  That is, the reel controller 130 determines the stop position of the reel corresponding to the pressed button of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 each time the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed. The reel is stopped at the stop position. In the gaming machine of this embodiment, pressing the stop button B1 corresponds to an operation for stopping the first reel R1, and pressing the stop button B2 is an operation for stopping the second reel R2. Correspondingly, pressing the stop button B3 corresponds to an operation for stopping the third reel R3. That is, in the gaming machine of this embodiment, when the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is changed, the stopping order of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 is changed.

  In the gaming machine according to the present embodiment, in principle, the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are rotating corresponding to the pressed stop button within 190 ms from the time when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed. In the second bonus state, the third reel R3 is exceptionally stopped within 75 ms from the point when the stop button B3 is pressed, and the first reel R1 and the second reel R2 are stopped with the stop button B1. , B2 is pressed within 190 ms from the time when B2 is pressed, the rotating reel corresponding to the pressed stop button is stopped. When the rotating reel is stopped within 190 ms from the time when the stop button is pressed, the stop position of each rotating reel is 0 frames from the time when the stop button is pressed until the reel stops. -4 frames (predetermined pull-in range, first pull-in range). In addition, when a rotating reel is stopped within 75 ms from the time when the stop button is pressed, the number of frames required from the time when the stop button is pressed until the reel stops is in a range of 0 to 1 frame (narrower than a predetermined pull-in range). (The pull-in range, the second pull-in range). The reel control means 130 displays the symbol corresponding to the winning combination in the internal lottery on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating reel corresponding to the stop button that has been pressed among the stop buttons B1 to B3. Within the range of 0 frame to 4 frames (when stopped within 190 ms), or within the range of 0 frame to 1 frame (stops within 75 ms) with respect to the display position on the active line ), The symbol corresponding to the combination for which the lottery flag is set to the winning state is displayed at the display position on the active line. The reel is stopped.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12, the red 7 symbol “red 7” and the white 7 symbol “white 7” with respect to the outer peripheral surfaces of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 constituting the reel unit 310. , Black 7 symbol “black 7”, BAR symbol “BAR”, replay symbol “RP”, bell symbol “BL”, watermelon symbol A “WMA”, watermelon symbol B “WMB”, cherry symbol “CH”, and dummy symbol "DUM" is arranged, and the symbols that make up the winning combination of the combination are within 4 frames on the outer peripheral surface of the reel (when stopped within 190 ms), or within 1 frame (when stopped within 75 ms) ) Can be displayed on the effective line regardless of the pressed detection position.

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

  First, in the logic calculation process, a range of 0 frame to 4 frames from the pressing detection position, which is the position of the reel at the time of operation of the stop switch 240 (when the pressing of the stop button is detected) according to the priority order data determined for each combination. Priorities are obtained for the stop position candidates for five frames existing in the frame. In the second bonus state, with respect to the third reel R3, priority is obtained with respect to the stop position candidates for two frames existing within the range of 0 frame to 1 frame from the pressing detection position, and the first reel R1 and the first reel R3. For the two reels R2, the priority is obtained for the stop position candidates for five frames corresponding to the pressed detection position in the same manner as described above. Then, the stop position candidate with the highest priority among the priorities of the respective stop position candidates is determined as the actual stop position. However, in logic calculation processing, the same priority may be obtained for a plurality of stop position candidates depending on the result of the internal lottery, the pressed detection position, etc., and there are a plurality of stop position candidates with the highest priority. In such a case, the actual stop position is determined by a table reference process described later.

  In particular, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, in principle, the priority order is determined in the order of “replay> small role> bonus”, and in the second bonus state, the priority order is exceptionally in the order of “small role> replay”. A ranking has been established. In the logic calculation process, when the lottery flags relating to two or more types of winning combinations are set to the winning state, the symbols constituting the winning form of the winning combination having the highest priority according to the priority order associated with each winning combination are displayed. The priority is calculated so that the priority of the stop position candidate including the symbol is higher than that of the stop position candidate including the symbol constituting the winning form of the role having a low priority.

  In the gaming machine of this embodiment, the priority for the stop position candidate when multiple types of small roles are won in the internal lottery is determined according to the type of symbol combination that can be displayed on the active line. There is a case where the priority is determined according to the number of medals paid out based on a predetermined payout for the small role, and the stop position candidate is determined according to the type of symbol combination that can be displayed on the effective line. The priority for each stop position candidate is determined so that the higher the priority is the stop position where the number of symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern that can be displayed on the active line increases, and the medal When the priority for the stop position candidates is determined according to the number of payouts, the number of medals paid out based on the small part payout corresponding to the symbol displayed at the display position on the active line is large. That the stop position so as priority (stop position capable of winning a prize is often small win) increases determine the priority for the candidate of each stop position. However, if the priority for the stop position candidate is determined according to the number of medals paid out, if a small role with the same payout is won in duplicate, the stop position where each small role can be won The priorities of the candidates are treated as the same.

  In this embodiment, when the batting order bell is won, a logic operation corresponding to the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is performed. Specifically, the correct hit order is set for each of the hit order bell A1 to the hit order bell A3 and the hit order bell B1 to the hit order bell B3, and an order different from the correct answer hit order is treated as an incorrect answer hit order. Then, when any of the batting order bells is won and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order, a logic operation is performed to determine the priority according to the number of medals paid out, and the number of medals paid out is the largest. The priority is determined so that the priority of the candidate stop position becomes the highest. Also, if any of the hitting bells is won and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the incorrect answering order, the priority for the stop position candidates according to the types of symbol combinations that can be displayed on the active line The priority is calculated so that the priority of the stop position candidates that can display the symbol combinations constituting the most winning patterns is the highest.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 27, among the plural types of small roles included in each batting order bell, the small roles 1 to 3 each have a symbol combination indicating a winning pattern with a single payout. There are four types, each of the small combinations 4 has three types of symbol combinations showing a winning pattern with one payout, and the small combination 5 is a type of symbol combinations showing a winning pattern with one payout Is one type, and the small combination 6 has nine types of payouts and one type of symbol combination indicating a winning pattern. Therefore, when one of the batting order bells is won, the priority of the stop position candidates that can win the small role 6 that increases the number of medals paid out when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct batting order. If the logic operation is performed so that the highest is, and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the incorrect answering order, any one of the small roles 1 to 5 where the types of symbol combinations indicating the winning pattern are increased is won. The logic operation is performed so that the priority of the candidate stop positions that can be made is the highest.

  In the present embodiment, the logic operation corresponding to the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3 is performed even in the second bonus state. Specifically, in the second bonus state, an internal lottery with replay as a lottery target is performed, and a specific batting order is set for each of the specific winning modes of the replay. Then, when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in a specific batting order, the logic for obtaining the priority for the stop position candidates according to the type of symbol combination indicating the winning mode of the winning combination that can be displayed on the active line When the calculation is performed and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in a striking order different from the specific striking order, a logic computation is performed to obtain a priority for the stop position candidates according to the number of medals paid out.

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

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

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

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

  Then, in the stop control table that is referred to when one of the batting order bells is won in the internal lottery, as shown in FIG. 13, the correct batting order is set for each batting order bell, and the pressing order is different from the correct batting order. Are treated as incorrect order. In the present embodiment, when any of the hitting bells is won, the number of sliding symbols relative to the pressed detection position is set so that the small combination 6 wins when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the correct hitting order. When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in an incorrect answering order, in the batting order 1 or batting order 2 where the stop button B1 is pressed first, the small part 1, the small part 2 or the small part 3 wins, The number of sliding symbols for the pressing detection position is set so that there is a case where a falling blank is displayed without winning any of the winning combinations, and the hit order 3 to 3 when the stop button B2 or the stop button B3 is pressed first. In the batting order 6, the number of sliding symbols for the pressed detection position is set so that the small combination 4 or the small combination 5 wins. Also in the stop control table, the number of sliding symbols for the pressed detection position is set so that it becomes the stop position where the most medals are paid out in the correct answer order, and in the incorrect answer order, the combination of symbols that can be displayed on the active line The number of sliding frames for the pressed detection position is set so that the stop position has the largest number of types.

  Further, in the second bonus state, the replay 2, replay 3, batting order replay C1, batting order replay C2, batting order replay E1 to batting order replay E3, batting order replay F1 to batting order replay G4, batting order replay G1, batting order replay G2, batting order replay J1 In the stop control table that is referred to when any one of batting order replay J2, batting order replay K1 to batting order replay K3, batting order replay L1, and batting order replay L2 is won, as shown in FIG. On the other hand, a specific batting order is set, and a pressing order different from the specific batting order is treated as a non-specific batting order. And in this embodiment, when one of these winning aspects of replay is won, if the stop button B1-B3 is pressed in a specific batting order, the small role 11 wins, and the stop button B1- When B3 is pressed, the number of sliding symbols for the pressed detection position is set so that the small combination 12 or the small combination 13 wins.

  In addition, in the stop control table that is referred to when the batting order replay B5 is won in internal lottery in the second bonus state, as shown in FIG. 14, a specific batting order is set, and the pressing order different from the specific batting order is a non-specific batting order. Are treated as And in this embodiment, when the batting order replay B5 is won and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in a specific batting order, the winning of the small role 7 is given priority and the small role 7 cannot be won. When the small combination 12 or the small combination 13 wins and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in a non-specific stroke order, the number of sliding symbols for the pressed detection position is set so that the small combination 12 or the small combination 13 wins. Yes.

  Further, in the second bonus state, in the stop control table that is referred to when replay 1 and replay 17 are won in the internal lottery, two types of specific stroke order A and specific stroke order B are specified as shown in FIG. A batting order is set, and a pressing order different from any specific batting order is treated as a non-specific batting order. And in this embodiment, when the replay 1 and the replay 17 overlap and win, if the stop button B1-B3 is pressed by the specific batting order A, the small part 11 will win, and the stop button B1 will be carried out by the specific batting order B. When ~ B3 is pressed, the winning of the small role 7 is given priority. When the small role 7 cannot be won, the small role 11 wins and the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in a non-specific batting order. Then, the number of sliding symbols with respect to the pressed detection position is set so that the small combination 12 or the small combination 13 wins.

  Also, refer to when either of the batting order replay A1 to batting order replay A8 or batting order replay B1 to batting order replay B4 is won in the internal lottery in the second bonus state, or the internal lottery result is lost in the second bonus state In the stop control table to be performed, as shown in FIG. 14, the number of sliding symbols for the pressing detection position is set so that the small combination 12 or the small combination 13 wins.

  Next, a stop control table that is referred to when a batting order replay is won in a gaming state other than the second bonus state will be described.

  First, as shown in FIG. 15, the correct answer for each batting order replay is shown in the stop control table that is referred to when any of batting order replay A1 to batting order replay A8 or batting order replay B1 to batting order replay B5 is won by internal lottery. A batting order is set, and a pressing order different from the correct batting order is treated as an incorrect batting order. In this embodiment, when any one of the batting order replay A1 to the batting order replay A8 and the batting order replay B1 to the batting order replay B5 is won, the replay 6 wins when the stop button B1 to B3 is pressed in the correct batting order.

The number of sliding frames for the position is set.

  The winning determination means 140 performs a winning determination process for determining whether or not a winning combination has been won based on the stop mode of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3. Specifically, while referring to the winning determination table stored in the winning determination table storage means 194 of the main memory 190M, it is displayed on the active line when all of the first reel R1 to the third reel R3 are stopped. It is determined whether or not the symbol combination is in the form of a predetermined winning combination. Then, as shown in FIGS. 23 to 31, the first big bonus (BB1), the second big bonus (BB2), the replay 1 to the replay are performed according to the symbol combination displayed on the active line in a state where each reel is stopped. 19, A winning determination table is prepared so that it is possible to determine whether or not there is a winning combination of a small combination 1 to a small combination 13 or a falling blank.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the winning process is executed based on the determination result of the winning determination means 140. As the winning process, for example, when a small role (small role 1 to small role 13) wins, the payout control means 150 performs a medal payout control process, and replay (replay 1 to replay 19) wins. In this case, a replay process is performed by the replay processing unit 160, and when a bonus (BB1, BB2) is won, a game state transition control process for shifting the game state is performed by the game state transition control unit 170.

  The payout control means 150 performs payout control processing relating to the payout of medals according to the game result. Specifically, when a small role wins, the number of medals to be paid out in the game is determined based on a payout according to a predetermined number of predetermined inputs for each role, and medals corresponding to the determined number of payouts Is controlled to be delivered to the hopper unit 320 (dispensing device). However, in this embodiment, there is an upper limit (for example, 14) for the number of medals paid out in one game, and when the total number of payouts exceeds the upper limit, the number corresponding to the upper limit is set in the game. Determined as the number of medals to be paid out.

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

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

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

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

  The normal state is a game state corresponding to the initial state among a plurality of types of game states, and a transition from the normal state to the first bonus establishment state and the second bonus establishment state is possible. Specifically, when the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the normal state, the first bonus is established, and when the second big bonus (BB2) is won in the normal state, the second bonus is established. Transition. Further, in the normal state, the internal lottery table A to which the first big bonus (BB1) and the second big bonus (BB2) are set as the lottery targets among the internal lottery tables A to W shown in FIGS. An internal lottery with reference to any one of A to the internal lottery table G is performed.

Further, the communication control means 175 notifies the sub-board 20 of the current gaming state by outputting a gaming state notification signal to the sub-board 20. Further, the communication control means 175 notifies the sub-board 20 of the current replay lottery status by outputting a replay status notification signal to the sub-board 20. As described above, in the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the sub-board 20 is based on the internal lottery result notification signal, the winning combination notification signal, the operation notification signal, the gaming state notification signal, and the replay state notification signal output from the main substrate 10. As a result of the internal lottery, the display control unit 180 causes the display device 330 or the audio device 340 to perform an effect corresponding to the type of winning combination, the operation performed by the player, the current game state, and the replay lottery state. Can be done.

  In the gaming machine of the present embodiment, the communication control means 175 notifies the hall computer 410 and the data counter 420 that the presentation state is staying in the second AT state A or the second AT state B. (Specific signal) and control to output a second specific signal for notifying the hall computer 410 and the data counter 420 that the gaming state is staying in the first bonus state.

  Then, the communication control means 175 determines whether or not to start the output of the first specific signal according to the result of the internal lottery and the pressing order of the stop button. In particular, in this embodiment, the pressing order of any of the specific batting order A to the specific batting order C according to the batting order replay won in the game in which any of batting order replay E1 to batting order replay E3, batting order replay F1 to batting order replay F3 is won ( Based on the fact that the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 or the stop button B3 is first pressed), it is determined that the start condition of the second AT state A or the second AT state B is satisfied, It is determined to start outputting the first specific signal, and output of the first specific signal is started. In the present embodiment, when the stop button B1 to B3 is pressed in the order in which the stop button B2 is first pressed in the game in which one of the hit order replay E1 to the hit order replay E3 is won, the first specific signal is output. Not to start.

  As described above, in this embodiment, in principle, when the replay lottery state shifts to the fourth replay high probability state or the fifth replay high probability state, the output of the first specific signal is started. In addition, when the stop button B1 to B3 is pressed in the batting order 4 (B2 → B3 → B1) in the game in which any one of the batting order replay E1 to the batting order replay E3 is won and the state shifts to the fourth replay high probability state, 1 The output of a specific signal is not started.

  In the present embodiment, whether or not the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in the order in which the stop button B1 or the stop button B3 is pressed first can be determined based on the type of the stop button pressed first. In the game in which one of the batting order replay E1 to the batting order replay E3 is won, it is determined whether or not to start the output of the first specific signal, triggered by the first (first) stop operation.

  Further, the communication control means 175 has stop buttons B1 to B3 in a specific batting order A or a specific batting order B corresponding to the batting order replay selected in the game in which any of batting order replay E1 to batting order replay E3 or batting order replay F1 to batting order replay F3 is won. Is pressed, a specific value (for example, 30) is set in the first specific condition determination counter 195A of the main memory 190M. And the communication control means 175 performs decrement update which subtracts a fixed value (for example, 1) from the value of the 1st specific condition determination counter 195A based on that the batting order bell wins in the 4th replay high probability state. In the present embodiment, the decrement update of the first specific condition determination counter 195A is started from the game next to the game that has shifted to the fourth replay high probability state. When the value of the first specific condition determination counter 195A reaches a threshold value (for example, 0), the communication control means 175 determines that the end condition for the second AT state A is satisfied, and outputs the first specific signal. To stop. Note that the fourth replay high probability state is maintained even if the value of the first specific condition determination counter 195A reaches a threshold value (for example, 0). The communication control means 175 also stops outputting the first specific signal when the replay lottery state shifts from the fourth replay high probability state to another lottery state when the first specific signal is output. The value of the first specific condition determination counter 195A is reset to an initial value (for example, 0).

  Further, the communication control means 175 has the stop buttons B1 to B3 pressed in the specific batting order C corresponding to the batting order replay won in any of the batting order replay E2, batting order replay E3, batting order replay F2, and batting order replay F3. Based on this, a specific value (for example, 7) is set in the second specific condition determination counter 195B of the main memory 190M. Then, the communication control means 175 determines that the batting order bell is won in the fifth replay high probability state until the value of the second specific condition determination counter 195B reaches the first threshold value (for example, 5). Then, the decrement is updated by subtracting a certain value (for example, 1) from the value of the second specific condition determination counter 195B. From the time when the value of the second specific condition determination counter 195B reaches the first threshold value (for example, 5) until the second threshold value (for example, 0) is reached, the batting order replay K1 to the batting order replay K3, Decrement updating is performed by subtracting a constant value from the value of the second specific condition determination counter 195B based on the winning order replay L1 to the hitting order replay L2. In the present embodiment, the decrement update of the second specific condition determination counter 195B is started from the game next to the game that has shifted to the fifth replay high probability state. Then, when the value of the second specific condition determination counter 195B reaches a second threshold value (for example, 0), the communication control means 175 determines that the end condition for the second AT state B is satisfied and determines the first specific condition. Stop signal output. Note that the fifth replay high probability state is maintained even if the value of the second specific condition determination counter 195B reaches a threshold value (for example, 0). The communication control means 175 also stops outputting the first specific signal when the replay lottery state shifts from the fifth replay high probability state to another lottery state when the first specific signal is output. The value of the second specific condition determination counter 195B is reset to an initial value (for example, 0).

  Further, the communication control means 175 determines to start outputting the second specific signal based on the fact that the symbol combination indicating the winning pattern of the first big bonus (BB1) is displayed on the active line, and the second Start outputting a specific signal. And the communication control means 175 stops the output of the 2nd specific signal based on completion | finish of a 1st bonus state.

  In the present embodiment, when the second big bonus (BB2) is won, winning, or the end of the second bonus state, the output of either the first specific signal or the second specific signal is started or stopped. It is not to do.

  In addition, the first specific signal and the second specific signal indicate a winning determination process in a game in which the replay lottery state has shifted to the fourth replay high probability state or the fifth replay high probability state, or in a game in which the game state has shifted to the first bonus state. Triggered at the next game of the game where the output is started at the timing of the game, the replay lottery state has shifted to the fourth replay high probability state or the fifth replay high probability state, or the game state has shifted to the first bonus state A game or game state in which the output is started when a medal corresponding to the number is inserted or the replay lottery state is shifted to the fourth replay high probability state or the fifth replay high probability state is set to the first bonus state. The output is started by the game start operation for the start lever SL in the next game of the transferred game. Further, for the first specific signal, any one of the specific batting order A to the specific batting order C corresponding to the batting order replay won in the batting order replay E1 to the batting order replay E3 or the batting order replay F1 to the batting order replay F3. When the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed in such a pressing order, the output can be started with the first (first) stop operation as a trigger, and the output is started with any of these as a trigger You can make it.

  Next, the sub substrate 20 will be described. The sub board 20 is configured to include the effect control means 180 and the sub memory 190S.

And when the stop buttons B1 to B3 are pressed along the pressing order different from the specific batting order notified in the first winning assistance effect, the small role 12 or the small role 13 always wins and 14 medals are paid out. The second bonus state ends. In the present embodiment, if the result of the internal lottery is lost in the second bonus state, or if Replay 1 is won alone, any one of batting order replay A1 to batting order replay A8, batting order replay B1 to batting order replay B5 When winning, the small role 12 or the small role 13 always wins regardless of the pressing order of the stop buttons B1 to B3. However, even in such a case, the first pressing formally notifies the predetermined pressing order. You may make it perform a prize assistance production | presentation.

  In addition, when the rendition state is one of the AT states, the rendition control means 180 informs the stop button pressing order and assists the winning of any replay when a plurality of replays are won. Control that causes the display device 330 and the audio device 340 to execute a prize winning effect is performed. Various effects can be adopted as the second winning assistance effect. For example, an effect image informing the correct batting order or specific batting order corresponding to the winning batting order replay is displayed on the liquid crystal display LCD, or the winning batting order replay is performed. It is possible to turn on a lamp for informing the correct hit order and the specific hit order according to the sound, or to output a sound for notifying the correct hit order and the specific hit order according to the selected hit order replay from the speaker.

  When the production state is the normal production state, the production control means 180 has won the batting order replay A1 to batting order replay A8, cherry (weak cherry, strong cherry, strongest cherry, middle cherry) or watermelon in the internal lottery. The first AT lottery (special effect lottery) and the second AT lottery (special effect lottery) are performed. In the first AT lottery, any one of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is acquired, and the obtained random value is compared with the first AT lottery table A stored in the effect lottery table storage unit 197 of the sub memory 190S. Then, it is determined whether or not the first AT lottery is won according to the comparison result. In the first AT lottery table A, each of the 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is associated with either winning or losing, and the random value acquired in the first AT lottery is the first AT lottery table A. If the first AT lottery is won, it is determined that the first AT lottery is won. Then, the effect control means 180 shifts to the first AT preparation state based on winning the first AT lottery.

  In the second AT lottery, any of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is acquired, and the acquired random number value is compared with the second AT lottery table stored in the effect lottery table storage unit 197 of the sub memory 190S. Then, it is determined whether or not the second AT lottery is won according to the comparison result. In the second AT lottery table, each of the 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is associated with any one of the first normal winning, the first special winning, the second winning or the loss, and the second AT lottery. It is determined that the second AT lottery is won when the random value acquired in step 2 is associated with the first normal winning, the first special winning, or the second winning in the second AT lottery table. Then, the effect control means 180 shifts to the second AT preparation state based on the winning of the second AT lottery, and sets the effect flag corresponding to the lottery result in the effect flag storage means 199 of the sub memory 190S. In particular, in this embodiment, when the result of the first normal winning is obtained in the second AT lottery, the second ATA normal winning flag is set, and when the result of the first special winning is obtained in the second AT lottery, the second A 2ATA special winning flag is set, and when the result of the second winning is obtained in the second AT lottery, the second ATB winning flag is set.

Is maintained in the first replay high probability state or the third replay high probability state.

  Further, the effect control means 180 performs a process of setting a value corresponding to the lottery result in the first AT end determination counter 198A of the sub memory 190S based on the winning of the first AT lottery. Particularly in the present embodiment, when the result of the first AT lottery is winning, for example, “50” is set in the first AT end determination counter 198A as a value corresponding to 50 games.

  Further, the effect control means 180 determines the end condition of the first AT state based on the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A, and performs control to end the first AT state when the end condition of the first AT state is satisfied. In particular, in this embodiment, the decrement in which the effect control means 180 subtracts a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of times of one game from the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A every time a game in the first AT state is performed. Update. In the present embodiment, the decrement update of the first AT end determination counter 198A is started from the next game of the game in which one of the batting order replay A1 to batting order replay A8 and batting order replay B1 to batting order replay B5 is won in the first AT preparation state. Is done. When the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A reaches a threshold value (for example, 0), the effect control means 180 determines that the end condition for the first AT state is satisfied, ends the first AT state, Transition to the production state.

  In addition, when the production state is the first AT state, the production control unit 180 performs an extra lottery (special production lottery) and a second AT lottery when the replay 2, replay 3, watermelon or cherry is won in the internal lottery. . In the extra lottery, any one of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is acquired, and the obtained random number value is compared with the first extra lottery table stored in the production lottery table storage unit 196, and the comparison result In accordance with the above, it is determined whether or not the lottery is won. In the first extra lottery table, for example, each of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is associated with either “10” winning, “30” winning, “50” winning or losing. If the random number value acquired in the extra lottery is associated with winning in the first extra lottery table, it is determined that the extra lottery has been won. Then, the effect control means 180 performs a process of adding a value corresponding to the lottery result to the first AT end determination counter 198A based on the winning of the extra lottery. For example, if a winning result of “10” is obtained in the extra lottery, “10” is obtained. If a winning result of “30” is obtained in the extra lottery, “30” is obtained. If a winning result of “50” is obtained, “50” is added to the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A.

  Further, the production control means 180 determines that the interruption condition for the first AT state is established based on the fact that the second AT lottery is won in the first AT state, and maintains the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A while maintaining the value of the second AT. A transition is made to the preparation state, and an effect flag corresponding to the lottery result is set in the effect flag storage means 199.

  Then, when any one of batting order replay A1 to batting order replay A8, batting order replays B1 to B5, batting order replay G1 to batting order replay G2 is won in the second AT preparation state, the effect control means 180 correct answer batting order corresponding to the winning batting order replay ( 15) and a specific batting order (see FIG. 20) are notified, and the second winning assistance effect for assisting the winning of the replay 6 is executed. In addition, when the batting order replay C1 or batting order replay C2 is won in the second AT preparation state, the effect control means 180 notifies the correct batting order B (see FIG. 16) according to the winning batting order replay and assists the replay 7 in winning. 2. The prize winning assist effect is executed.

  In addition, when the second ATA normal winning is set in the second AT preparation state, the production control unit 180 wins any of the batting order replay E2, the batting order replay E3, the batting order replay F2, and the batting order replay F3. A specific batting order B (see FIG. 17) corresponding to the replay is notified, and the second winning assist effect is performed to assist the replay winning in the stop mode with red 7 assortment. In addition, when the second ATA special winning flag is set in the second AT preparation state, the production control means 180, when the batting order replay E1 or the batting order replay F1 wins, the specific batting order A corresponding to the winning batting order replay (see FIG. 17). ) And the second winning assistance effect for assisting the winning of the replay in the stop mode with 7 whites is executed. In addition, when the second ATB winning flag is set in the second AT preparation state, the production control unit 180 wins any of the batting order replay E2, the batting order replay E3, the batting order replay F2, and the batting order replay F3. A specific batting order C (see FIG. 17) corresponding to the player is notified to execute a second winning assistance effect that assists the replay winning in the stop mode with REG alignment. In addition, when the second ATA normal winning flag is set, when the batting order replay (the batting order replay E1, the batting order replay F1) for which the specific batting order B is not set is won, it is specified when the second ATA special winning flag is set. When the batting order replay (batting order replay E2, batting order replay E3, batting order replay F2, batting order replay F3) for which no batting order A is set is won, the specific batting order C is not set when the second ATB winning flag is set When the batting order replay (batting order replay E1, batting order replay F1) is won, the second winning prize is announced to notify the non-specific batting order (see FIG. 17) corresponding to the winning batting order replay and assist the winning of the replay 1 or the replay 7. Auxiliary effects are executed. Further, when the batting order replay F4 is won in the second AT preparation state, when the second ATA normal winning flag or the second ATA special winning flag is set, the specific batting order D (see FIG. 17) is notified and the stop accompanied by the REG loss. If the second ATB winning flag is set to assist the replay winning in the mode and the second ATB winning flag is set, the non-specific batting order (see FIG. 17) is notified to assist the replay 1 winning. The second winning assistance effect is executed.

  Then, when the second ATA normal winning flag is set in the second AT preparation state, the effect control means 180 has selected one of batting order replay E2, batting order replay E3, batting order replay F2, and batting order replay F3 ( If the second ATA special winning flag is set in the second AT preparation state based on the fact that the transition condition of the special performance state has been established), that the batting order replay E1 or the batting order replay F1 has been won (the special performance state If the second ATB winning flag is set in the second AT preparation state based on the fact that the transition condition has been established), one of batting order replay E2, batting order replay E3, batting order replay F2, and batting order replay F3 is won (The transition condition for the special performance state has been established) To. When the second AT preparation state ends, the second ATA normal winning flag, the second ATA special winning flag, and the second ATB winning flag set in the effect flag storage unit 199 are reset.

  As described above, in this embodiment, when the second AT lottery is won, the second prize assisting effect is executed, so that the replay lottery state passes through the first replay high probability state and the second replay high probability state. If the result of the first normal winning or the first special winning is obtained in the 2AT lottery, the player is guided to the fourth replay high probability state, and if the result of the first winning is obtained in the second AT lottery, the fifth replay is obtained. Induced to a high probability state.

  Further, the effect control means 180 performs processing for setting a value corresponding to the lottery result in the second AT end determination counter 198B or the third AT end determination counter 198C of the sub memory 190S based on the winning of the second AT lottery. In particular, in the present embodiment, when the result of the second AT lottery is the first normal winning or the first special winning, for example, “30” is set as the value corresponding to the number of executions of the first winning assist effect for 30 times. When the 2AT end determination counter 198B is set and the result of the 2nd AT lottery is the 1st win, for example, “7” is set as the value corresponding to the number of executions of 7 winning assist effects for the 3rd AT end determination counter 198C. Set to

  The effect control means 180 sets a high probability flag in the effect flag storage means 199 when the result of the first special winning is obtained in the second AT lottery.

  Then, when the production state is the second AT state A, the production control means 180 is triggered by the fact that Replay 2, Replay 3, Cherry, Watermelon, Strike Order Replay J1, or Strike Order Replay J2 is won in the internal lottery. When the value of the end determination counter 198A is an initial value (for example, 0), the first AT lottery is performed (determining whether or not a privilege is given), and the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is not the initial value Is added and a lottery is performed (determining whether or not to grant a privilege). In the first AT lottery, when the high probability flag is not set, the first AT lottery table A is referred to, and when the high probability flag is set, the winning probability is set higher than that of the first AT lottery table A. The first AT lottery table B is referred to. When the batting order replay J1 is won, the confirmed first AT lottery table in which the winning is associated with all random values is referred to. Then, based on the fact that the first AT lottery is won in the second AT state A, the effect control means 180 performs a process of setting a value (privilege) corresponding to the lottery result in the first AT end determination counter 198A.

  Also, in the extra lottery, when the high probability flag is not set, the first extra lottery table is referred to, and when the high probability flag is set, the winning probability is set higher than the first extra lottery table. The second added lottery table is referred to. When the batting order replay J1 is won, the final addition lottery table in which any one of the winnings is associated with all the random values is referred to. Then, the effect control means 180 performs a process of adding a value (privilege) corresponding to the lottery result to the first AT end determination counter 198A based on the winning of the extra lottery.

  In addition, in the second AT state A, when the winning order replay J1 or the batting order replay J2 is won, the effect control means 180 wins the winning order in which the first AT lottery or the extra lottery is won (when it is decided to grant a privilege). A second winning award that assists in a replay winning in a stop mode with 7 white matches and a stop mode with 7 red matches by informing the specific hit order A (see FIG. 21) and the specific hit order B (see FIG. 21) according to the replay. When the auxiliary effect is executed and the first AT lottery or the extra lottery is not won, a second winning prize is provided to inform the non-specific batting order (see FIG. 21) corresponding to the winning batting order replay and assist the winning of the replay 1 Auxiliary effects are executed.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the second winning assist effect is executed, the fourth replay high probability state is maintained while the effect state is the second AT state A.

  Further, the effect control means 180 determines the end condition of the second AT state A based on the value of the second AT end determination counter 198B, and performs control to end the second AT state A when the end condition of the second AT state A is satisfied. Do. In particular, in the present embodiment, when the replay lottery state is not the first replay low probability state, the effect control means 180 determines the first time from the value of the second AT end determination counter 198B based on the winning order bell winning. The decrement is updated by subtracting a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of executions of one winning assistance effect. In this embodiment, the decrement update of the second AT end determination counter 198B is performed when the second ATA normal winning flag is set in the second AT preparation state, the batting order replay E2, the batting order replay E3, the batting order replay F2, and the batting order replay. If one of F3 starts from the next game of the winning game and the second ATA special winning flag is set in the second AT ready state, the next game of the game won by the batting order replay E1 or the batting order replay F1 Starts from. Then, when the value of the second AT end determination counter 198B reaches a threshold value (for example, 0), the effect control means 180 determines that the end condition for the second AT state A is satisfied and ends the second AT state A. When the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is an initial value (for example, 0), the state is shifted to the normal effect state, and when the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is not the initial value, the first AT state is set. Transition. In this case, the decrement update of the first AT end determination counter 198A is started from the next game of the game shifted to the first AT state.

  Further, in the second AT state B, the effect control means 180, when the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C is a first threshold value (for example, 5) or less, the batting order replay K1 to the batting order replay K3, the batting order replay L1. When any of the hitting order replays L2 is won, the display device 330 or the audio device 340 is caused to execute a special effect. In the special effect at the time of winning the batting order replay K, there are three kinds of pressing orders: a pressing order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed, a pressing order in which the stop button B2 is pressed first, and a pressing order in which the stop button B3 is pressed first. The order of pressing is selected from among them, and it is informed that the correct hitting order (see FIG. 22) corresponding to the winning hitting order replay is applied by itself. In the special effect at the time of winning the batting order replay L, the pressing order is selected from the two pressing orders of the pressing order in which the stop button B1 is first pressed and the pressing order in which the stop button B2 is pressed first. It is notified that the correct hitting order (see FIG. 22) corresponding to the hitting order replay is applied by itself. As described above, in the present embodiment, by executing the special effect, the fifth replay high probability state is maintained while the effect state is the second AT state B. Then, when the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is not the initial value (for example, 0), the effect control unit 180 determines whether the stop button is pressed in the correct batting order corresponding to the winning batting order replay. A process of adding a given value to the 1AT end determination counter 198A is performed. On the other hand, when the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is the initial value, the special counter 198D of the sub memory 190S is provided for one time on the basis that the stop button is pressed in the correct hit order according to the winning hit order replay. Incremental updating is performed by adding a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of correct answers in the pressing order, a predetermined first AT lottery table is selected based on the value of the special counter 198D, and the first AT lottery is performed. In particular, in the present embodiment, the value of the special counter 198D is “1” which is a value corresponding to the number of correct answers in the pressing order for one time, “2” which is a value corresponding to the number of correct answers in the pressing order for two times, 3 When the value is “3”, which is the value corresponding to the number of correct answers in the pressing order for the number of times, the first AT lottery table B is selected, and the value of the special counter 198D corresponds to the number of correct answers in the pressing order for four times. If the value is “4”, the first AT lottery table C set with a higher probability of winning than the first AT lottery table B is selected, and the value of the special counter 198D is the number of correct answers in the pressing order for five times. If the value is “5”, the first AT lottery table D set with a higher probability of winning than the first AT lottery table C is selected.

  Then, based on the fact that the first AT lottery is won in the second AT state B, the effect control means 180 performs a process of setting a value corresponding to the lottery result in the first AT end determination counter 198A.

  Further, the effect control means 180 determines the end condition of the second AT state B based on the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C, and performs control to end the second AT state B when the end condition of the second AT state B is satisfied. Do. In particular, in the present embodiment, when the replay lottery state is not the first replay low probability state until the effect control means 180 reaches the first threshold value (for example, 5) of the third AT end determination counter 198C. On the other hand, based on the winning of the batting order bell, the decrement is updated by subtracting a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of executions of the winning assistance effect for one time from the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C. From the time when the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C reaches the first threshold value until the second threshold value (for example, 0) is reached, batting order replay K1 to batting order replay K3, batting order replay L1 to batting order replay Based on the winning of any of L2, the decrement is updated by subtracting a value corresponding to the number of executions of one winning assist effect from the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C. In the present embodiment, the decrement update of the third AT end determination counter 198C is started from the next game of the game in which one of the batting order replay E2, the batting order replay E3, the batting order replay F2, and the batting order replay F3 is won in the second AT preparation state. Is done. When the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C reaches the second threshold value, the effect control means 180 determines that the end condition of the second AT state B is satisfied, ends the second AT state B, and When the value of the 1AT end determination counter 198A is the initial value, the state is shifted to the normal performance state, and when the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is not the initial value, the state is shifted to the first AT state. In this case, the decrement update of the first AT end determination counter 198A is started from the next game of the game shifted to the first AT state.

  Further, when the batting order bell L1 or the batting order bell L2 is won in the first AT state, the effect control means 180 notifies the incorrect answer batting order (see FIG. 22) according to the won batting order replay and assists the replay 8 in the second winning. Execute the prize winning assist. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the first AT lottery is won in the second AT state A or the second AT state B, the second winning assistance effect is executed in the first AT state, so that the replay lottery state is the fourth replay high probability. It is induced from the state and the fifth replay high probability state to the third replay high probability state.

  In addition, when the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the second AT state A, the effect control means 180 determines that the interruption condition of the second AT state A (the interruption condition of the special effect state) has been established. The decrement update of the 2AT end determination counter 198B is interrupted, and after the end of the first bonus state, the effect state is shifted to the second AT preparation state, and the replay lottery state is returned to the fourth replay high probability state in the second AT preparation state. As described above, the second winning assistance effect is executed, and based on the winning order replay E1 to the hitting order replay E3 being won, the effect state is returned to the second AT state A, and the decrement update of the interrupted second AT end determination counter 198B is performed. Let it resume. In addition, when the play control unit 180 starts the game in the second AT state A in the second AT preparation state, the replay lottery state is set to the fourth replay because the stop operation not following the second winning assist effect is performed. If the state has not shifted to the high probability state, the second winning assistance effect is executed so as to shift to the fourth replay high probability state. Further, when the replay lottery state shifts from the fourth replay high probability state to another lottery state due to the stop operation not being performed in accordance with the winning assist effect in the second AT state A being performed in the second AT state A, The second winning assistance effect is executed so as to return to the fourth replay high probability state. In particular, in the present embodiment, when returning (transitioning) to the fourth replay high probability state, at the time of winning one of the batting order replay E1 to batting order replay E3, the non-specific batting order corresponding to the winning batting order replay (see FIG. 17). ) And the second winning assistance effect for assisting the winning of the replay 12 is executed to return to the fourth replay high probability state. If any one of the batting order replay F1 to the batting order replay F4 is won in the second AT state A, the non-specific batting order (see FIG. 17) corresponding to the winning batting order replay is notified to assist the replay 1 winning. 2. The prize winning assist effect is executed.

  Further, when the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the first AT state, the effect control means 180 determines that the interruption condition for the first AT state is satisfied, and interrupts the decrement update of the first AT end determination counter 198A. Then, after the end of the first bonus state, the second winning assistance effect is executed so as to return the lottery state of replay to the first replay high probability state, and batting order replay A1 to batting order replay A8, batting order replay B1 to batting order replay The decrement update of the interrupted first AT end determination counter 198A is resumed based on the winning of any of B5.

  In addition, when the stop operation that does not follow the prize assisting effect is performed in the first AT state, the effect control unit 180 causes the replay lottery state to shift to the second replay low probability state or the second replay high probability state. The second winning assistance effect is executed so as to return to the first replay high probability state or the third replay high probability state.

  In addition, when the first big bonus (BB1) is won in the second AT state B, the effect control means 180 determines that the interruption condition for the second AT state B is satisfied, and updates the decrement of the third AT end determination counter 198C. Or the special counter 198D is interrupted, and after the first bonus state is finished, the production state is shifted to the second AT preparation state, and the replay lottery state is returned to the fifth replay high probability state. An auxiliary effect is executed, and based on the fact that any one of batting order replay E2, batting order replay E3, batting order replay F2, and batting order replay F3 is won, the effect state is returned to the second AT state B, and the interrupted third AT end determination counter The decrement update of 198C and the increment update of the special counter 198D are resumed.

  In addition, when the play control unit 180 starts the game in the second AT state B in the second AT preparation state, the lottery state of the replay is changed to the fifth replay because the stop operation not following the second prize assisting effect is performed. If the transition to the high probability state has not occurred, the second winning assistance effect is made so that the transition to the fifth replay high probability state is performed only until the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C reaches the first threshold value. Is executed. Further, when the replay lottery state shifts from the fifth replay high-probability state to another lottery state due to a stop operation not being performed in accordance with the winning assist effect in the second AT state B being performed in the second AT state B, Only until the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C reaches the first threshold value, the second winning assist effect is executed so as to return to the fifth replay high probability state.

  In addition, in the second AT state B, when the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C is equal to or less than a first threshold value (for example, 5), the effect control means 180 determines that the replay lottery state is the first replay low probability state, If it is set to any one of the 2 replay low probability state and the first replay high probability state to the fourth replay high probability state, it is determined that the forced termination condition of the second AT state B is satisfied, and the second AT When the state B is ended and the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is the initial value, the state is shifted to the normal effect state, and when the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is not the initial value, the state is changed to the first AT state. Transition.

  Further, the effect control means 180 performs a special lottery (special effect lottery) based on the fact that the second AT state B forced end condition is satisfied, and based on the fact that the special lottery is performed, the third AT end determination counter 198C A special lottery is performed until the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C reaches the second threshold value by performing a decrement update by subtracting a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of executions of one winning assist effect from the value. Do. In the special lottery, any one of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is acquired, and the acquired random value is compared with the special lottery table stored in the effect lottery table storage unit 196, and according to the comparison result. To determine whether a special lottery has been won. In the special lottery table, for example, each of 32768 random values from 0 to 32767 is associated with either winning or losing, and the random value acquired in the special lottery is selected in the special lottery table. If it is associated, it is determined that the special lottery has been won. In the special lottery table, the winning probability is set to about 1/3. Then, when the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is not the initial value, the effect control means 180 performs a process of adding a given value to the first AT end determination counter 198A based on the winning of the special lottery. . On the other hand, when the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is an initial value, a value (for example, 1) corresponding to the number of correct answers in the pressing order for one time is stored in the special counter 198D based on the winning of the special lottery. When the value of the third AT end determination counter 198C reaches the second threshold value, the predetermined first AT lottery table is selected based on the value of the special counter 198D, and the first AT lottery is performed. I do. Then, the effect control means 180 performs a process of setting a value corresponding to the lottery result in the first AT end determination counter 198A based on the winning of the first AT lottery.

In the present embodiment, in the present embodiment, when the game in the second AT state A is started in the second AT ready state on the sub-board 20, the batting order replay E1 to the batting order replay E3, the batting order replay F1 to the batting order replay F3 In a game where one is won, when the specific batting order A or the specific batting order B corresponding to the winning batting order replay is notified and the replay lottery state is returned (shifted) to the fourth replay high probability state in the second AT state A In the game in which any one of the batting order replay E1 to the batting order replay E3 and the batting order replay F1 to the batting order replay F3 is won, the main board 10 notifies the batting order replay E1 to the batting order replay E3 and the batting order replay F1 to F1. In a game where one of the batting order replays F3 is won, a special feature corresponding to the winning batting order replay When a stop operation is performed in the fixed hit order A or the specific hit order B, a control method for outputting the first specific signal is adopted.

  Hereinafter, the flow of processing performed on the main board 10 and the sub board 20 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 34 to 37.

  First, as shown in FIG. 34, in the sub board 20, when the production state is the normal production state, when the batting order replay A1 to batting order replay A8, cherry or watermelon is won in the internal lottery, the production state is the first AT state. In some cases, when Replay 2, Replay 3, Watermelon or Cherry is won in the internal lottery, the second AT lottery is performed (step S100). When the second AT lottery is won (Y in step S101, Y in step S105, Y in step S109), the state shifts to the second AT preparation state, an effect flag corresponding to the lottery result is set in the effect flag storage means 199, A value corresponding to the lottery result is set in the 2AT end determination counter 198B (step S102, step S106, step S110).

  Then, when the production state shifts to the second AT preparation state, when the second ATA normal winning flag is set, the winning order of any one of batting order replay E2, batting order replay E3, batting order replay F2, and batting order replay F3 ( In step S103, Y), the second winning assistance effect for assisting the winning of the replay in the stop mode accompanied by red 7 is performed by informing the specific batting order B corresponding to the winning batting order replay, and the state shifts to the second AT state A. (Step S104).

  On the other hand, when the second ATA special winning flag is set, the winning order of either the batting order replay E1 or the batting order replay F1 is triggered (Y in step S107), and the specific batting order A corresponding to the winning batting order replay is notified. Then, the second winning assistance effect for assisting the replay winning in the stop mode with white 7 is executed, and the process proceeds to the second AT state A (step S108).

  On the other hand, when the 2nd ATB winning flag is set, the winning order replay E2, the batting order replay E3, the batting order replay F2, and the batting order replay F3 are triggered (Y in step S111). A second winning assistance effect that assists the replay winning in the stop mode accompanied by the REG alignment by informing the corresponding specific batting order C is executed, and the state shifts to the second AT state B (step S112).

  When the effect state shifts to the second AT state A, the sub-board 20 performs the process shown in FIG.

  First, in the sub-board 20, when either the batting order replay J1 or the batting order replay J2 is won (Y in step S120), if the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is an initial value (for example, 0) (step S121). 1), the first AT lottery is performed (step S122). On the other hand, if the value of the first AT end determination counter 198A is not the initial value (N in step S121), the extra lottery is performed (step S123). Then, when winning in the first AT lottery or adding lottery (Y in step S124), the specific batting order corresponding to the winning batting order replay is notified, and the replay winning in the white 7-match stop mode or in the stop mode accompanied by the red 7-match. A second winning assist effect that assists the replay winning is executed, and a value corresponding to the lottery result is added to the first AT end determination counter 198A (step S125). On the other hand, if the first AT lottery or the extra lottery is not won (N in step S124), a second winning assist effect that assists the winning of Replay 1 by informing the non-specific batting order corresponding to the winning batting order replay. It is executed (step S126).

  As described above, in the present embodiment, in the second AT state A, when the first AT lottery or the extra lottery is won, the second replay that assists the replay in the white 7-match stop mode or the replay with the red 7-match is supported. When a winning assistance effect is executed and a stop operation is performed in accordance with the second winning assistance effect, a replay winning in a stop mode with 7 white matches or a replay winning with 7 red matches occurs. In the present embodiment, when the game in the second AT state A is started in the second AT ready state, the replay lottery state is set to the fourth replay because the stop operation not following the second prize assisting effect is performed. The replay lottery state has shifted from the 4th replay high probability state to another lottery state due to the fact that the transition to the high probability state has not been made or because a stop operation that does not follow the winning assistance effect is performed in the second AT state A In this case, the second winning assist effect is executed so as to return (shift) to the fourth replay high probability state. In particular, in this embodiment, when returning (transitioning) to the fourth replay high probability state in the second AT state A, at the time of winning one of the batting order replay E1 to the batting order replay E3, non-specification according to the winning batting order replay When the batting order (batting order 4) is notified to execute the second winning assist effect for assisting the winning of the replay 12, and the stop operation is performed according to the second winning assist effect, the replay 12 wins and the fourth replay high probability state Return to (transfer) to. For this reason, according to the present embodiment, when the lottery state of replay is returned (shifted) to the fourth replay high probability state in the second AT state A, the replay winning or red 7 assortment in the stop mode of white 7 is achieved. It is possible to prevent a replay winning with the occurrence of a game, and to prevent the gameability from being impaired.

  Further, in the present embodiment, even when the first big bonus (BB) is won in the second AT state A, after the first bonus state ends, the effect state is shifted to the second AT ready state, and in the second AT ready state, The second winning assist effect is executed so that the replay lottery state is returned to the fourth replay high probability state. In particular, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 36, at the end of the first bonus state (Y in step S140), the value of the second AT end determination counter 198B is checked, and the value of the second AT end determination counter 198B is the initial value. If it is not (for example, 0) (N in step S141), the effect state is shifted to the second AT ready state (step S142), and is returned to the fourth replay high probability state in the second AT ready state (end of second AT) Also when the value of the determination counter 198B is not the initial value), when any one of the batting order replay E1 to batting order replay E3 is won (Y in step S143), a non-specific batting order (batting order 4) corresponding to the winning batting order replay is notified. Then, the second winning assistance effect for assisting the winning of the replay 12 is executed, and the effect state is shifted to the second AT state A (step S1). 4), so as to resume the game in the first 2AT state A of interruption. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, when resuming the game in the second AT state A, which was interrupted in the second AT preparation state, the replay winning in the white 7-match stop mode or the replay winning with the red 7-matching is performed. Can be prevented from being generated, and the gameability can be prevented from being impaired.

  In the main board 10, when the output of the first specific signal is stopped, the processing shown in FIG. 37 is performed.

  First, in the main board 10, when the batting order replay E1 or the batting order replay F1 is won (Y in step S200), when the stop button is pressed in the specific batting order A corresponding to the selected batting order replay (Y in step S201), The start of output of one specific signal is determined (step S202). Further, when any one of batting order replay E2, batting order replay E3, batting order replay F2, and batting order replay F3 is won (Y in step S206), when the stop button is pressed in a specific batting order B corresponding to the won batting order replay (step) In S207, Y), the output start of the first specific signal is determined (step S202). When the stop button is pressed in the specific batting order A or the specific batting order B corresponding to the winning batting order replay, stop control is performed so that any one of the replay 9 to the replay 12 wins. If either wins (Y in step S203), the replay lottery state is shifted to the fourth replay high probability state (step S204), and the output of the first specific signal is started (step S205).

  Further, when any one of batting order replay E2, batting order replay E3, batting order replay F2, and batting order replay F3 is won (Y in step S206), when the stop button is pressed in a specific batting order C corresponding to the won batting order replay (step) In S208, Y), the output start of the first specific signal is determined (step S209). Then, when the stop button is pressed in the specific batting order C corresponding to the winning batting order replay, stop control is performed so that any one of the replays 13 to 15 wins, so any one of the replays 13 to 15 wins. Then (Y in step S210), the replay lottery state is shifted to the fifth replay high probability state (step S211), and the output of the first specific signal is started (step S212).

  On the other hand, when the stop button is pressed in a non-specific batting order in a game in which any one of batting order replay E1 to batting order replay E3 and batting order replay F1 to batting order replay F3 is won (N in step S201, N in step S208), the first The output start of the specific signal is not determined, and the output of the first specific signal is not started.

  According to the present embodiment described above, when the sub-board 20 is returned (shifted) to the fourth replay high probability state in the second AT ready state or the second AT state A, the batting order replay E1 to the batting order replay E3. In any of the above, the non-specific batting order (batting order 4) corresponding to the winning batting order replay is notified to execute the second winning assist effect that assists the winning of the replay 12, and the main board 10 performs batting order replays E1 to E1. In a game in which one of the batting order replay E3 and the batting order replay F1 to the batting order replay F3 is won, when the stop button is pressed in any of the specific batting order A to the specific batting order C corresponding to the winning batting order replay, the first specific signal However, if the stop button is pressed in a non-specific stroke order, the output of the first specific signal is not started. The first specific signal can be output to the main board 10 and the first specific signal can be returned to the fourth replay high probability state in the second AT ready state or the second AT state A. Can be prevented from being output again, and the first specific signal can be prevented from being output a plurality of times for one transition to the game in the second AT state A. Become.

  In the present embodiment, since it is possible to control whether or not the output of the first specific signal is started in the same lottery result (batting order replay E1 to batting order replay E3) in the internal lottery, the game in the second AT state A is started. And when returning to the fourth replay high probability state in the second AT ready state or the second AT state A, so that the number of games before shifting to the fourth replay high probability state can be reduced. Become.

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

  Although not mentioned in the above embodiment, the AT state is not terminated or interrupted on the condition that the second big bonus (BB2) is won or won in the first AT state, the second AT state A, or the second AT state B. You may do it. In the second bonus state, when the production state is set to the first AT state, when a predetermined interruption condition (for example, winning of the small role 7 or the small role 11) is satisfied, the first AT state is continued. The decrement update of the first AT end determination counter 198A may be interrupted, and the decrement update of the first AT end determination counter 198A may be resumed on condition that the second bonus state ends.

  In the above embodiment, the second AT end determination counter 198B or the third AT end determination counter 198C is decremented and updated in the second AT state A or the second AT state B based on the winning of the batting order bell. However, since the small role wins even in the second bonus state, for example, in addition to winning the batting order bell, the result of the operation of the start lever SL and the internal lottery in the second bonus state (for example, the small role 7 wins the prize) As a result, the second AT end determination counter 198B or the third AT end determination counter 198C is decremented on the basis of the result that the small role 11 can win, the result that the small role 12 or the small role 13 can win. It may be.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the 1st AT lottery, the 2nd AT lottery, and the extra lottery are performed based on the winning of cherry, watermelon, etc. has been described as an example. However, in the internal lottery in the first game in the second bonus state, 1st AT lottery, 2nd AT lottery, extra lottery based on the fact that Replay 1 and Replay 17 were won in duplicate or that batting order replay B5 was won (result that small role 7 could win) May be performed.

  In the above embodiment, in the second AT state A or the second AT state B, a stop operation not performed in accordance with the winning assist effect is performed, so that the AT state can be ended in principle even if the replay lottery state is shifted. The case where it is not interrupted has been described as an example, but the second AT end determination counter 198B or the third AT end determination counter when the replay lottery state shifts due to a stop operation not following the winning assist effect. The decrement update of 198C may be interrupted, and the decrement update of the second AT end determination counter 198B or the third AT end determination counter 198C may be resumed on condition that the replay lottery state is restored. In this case, when the first specific signal is output in the main board 10, even if the replay lottery state shifts from the fourth replay high probability state or the fifth replay high probability state, the first specific signal is output. The first decrement update of the first specific condition determination counter 195A and the second specific condition determination counter 195B is interrupted and the first recondition is returned to the fourth replay high probability state or the fifth replay high probability state. The decrement update of the specific condition determination counter 195A and the second specific condition determination counter 195B may be resumed.
