It is a figure for demonstrating an example of a movable body ((a) shows the movable body which has only one movable element, (b) shows the movable body which has several movable elements). It is a figure for demonstrating a single movable effect. It is a figure for demonstrating a continuous movable effect. The figure for demonstrating that a predetermined effect element is emitted when a movable body is located in a 2nd position during a continuous movable effect, and the said effect element may change in a 1st effect and a 2nd effect. It is. It is a figure for demonstrating the example in which an effect element is emitted by operation of an operation means. In the continuous movable effect, after the first effect, the time when the movable body located at the second position starts to move toward the first position and until the movable body starts to move toward the second position again in the second effect. These are figures which show the example of the production which prevents the information regarding a game from being displayed in the range where the movable body does not overlap at least in the display area. In the continuous movable effect, after the first effect, the time when the movable body located at the second position starts to move toward the first position and until the movable body starts to move toward the second position again in the second effect. Furthermore, it is a diagram showing an effect example in which a display suggesting that the movable body is displaced again to the second position is made at least in a range where the movable bodies do not overlap in the display area.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of a gaming machine 1 according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. First, the overall configuration of the gaming machine 1 will be briefly described with reference to FIG.

  The gaming machine 1 includes a game board 90. The game board 90 is formed of a substantially square plywood, and a guide rail 903 that forms a path for guiding a game ball launched by operating the launching device 908 (launching handle) to the gaming area 902 has a substantially arc shape. It is provided as follows.

  In the game area 902, a start winning opening 904, a big winning opening 906, an out opening 907, and the like are provided. The display area 21 of the display device 20 is an area that is visible through an opening 901 formed in the game board 90. 2 to 8 schematically show all or part of the display region 911, but the shape and the like can be changed as appropriate (the shape and size of the opening 901, the shape of the display device 20 itself, The shape and the like of the display area 911 can be changed by changing the size).

  In addition, the game area 902 is provided with a plurality of game nails as obstacles that change the flow-down mode of the game balls when the flow-down game balls collide. The game ball flowing down the game area 902 changes into various modes depending on the condition when it collides with the game nail.

  In such a gaming machine 1, a game ball is launched toward the game area 902 by operating the launching device 908. When a game ball flowing down the game area 902 wins a winning opening such as the start winning opening 904 or the big winning opening 906, a predetermined number of winning balls are paid out by the payout device.

  Note that the description of the components of the gaming machine 1 that are not related to the present invention, such as the frame of the gaming machine 1, the lower plate and the upper plate for storing the game balls, is omitted. About these, the thing of the structure similar to a well-known game machine is applicable.

  The jackpot lottery is executed by a winning determination means provided on a main control board (not shown) triggered by winning a game ball in the start winning opening 904 (a plurality of such starting winning openings may be provided). Specifically, a numerical value is acquired from a random number source when a game ball is won at the start winning opening 904, and when the numerical value is the same as a predetermined jackpot number, It will be out of place. As with known game machines, when a big hit is made, the identification symbol (the symbol for notifying the success / failure determination result) is notified when it becomes a predetermined combination (for example, three sets of the same symbol), otherwise If a combination of is displayed, it is out of place.

  The gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment can execute a movable effect (single movable effect, continuous movable effect) using the movable body 10 as a kind of effect that suggests the result of the determination. Hereinafter, the operation effects will be described in detail. Note that the timing at which the movable effect is started, the scene in which it occurs, and the like may be any. The movable effect is controlled by control means mounted on a sub-control board (not shown). Specifically, the sub control board controls the display device 20 and the movable body 10 directly or indirectly (for example, via another control board). Based on the determination result, the sub control board determines which effect is to be executed from the movable effect and other effects. The movable effect in the present embodiment is an effect in which the probability that the determination result is a big hit (hereinafter also referred to as a big hit reliability) is higher when it is executed than when it is not executed. In other words, for the player, it can be said that the occurrence of the movable effect itself is pleasing.

  The movable body 10 will be briefly described. The movable body 10 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 may be anything as long as it can be displaced between the first position and the second position. The movable body 10 in the present embodiment has a first position (original position; a position indicated by a dotted line in FIG. 2A) where all or most of the movable element 10a is covered by the game board 90, and all or most of the movable element 10a. It can reciprocate between a second position (effect position; a position indicated by a solid line in FIG. 2A) overlapping the display area 21 of the display device 20. That is, the movable body 10 is positioned in front of the display surface of the display device 20, and the range overlapping the display area 21 is larger when positioned at the second position than when positioned at the first position. The movable body 10 is located at the first position except when the movable effect is executed. Note that the movable body 10 need not have only one movable element. For example, as shown in FIG. 2B, the movable body 10 includes a plurality of movable elements 10a to 10c, and each movable element 10a to 10c is configured to be displaceable between a first position and a second position. It is also good. In the configuration shown in FIG. 2 (b), all or most of the movable elements 10a to 10c located at the first position are covered with the game board 90, and the movable elements 10a to 10c located at the second position are All or most of them overlap the display area 21 of the display device 20. And in a 2nd position, the integral predetermined form is constructed | assembled by combining each movable element 10a-10c. In the case of such a configuration, the first position and the second position of a certain movable element are different from the first position and the second position of another movable element.

  As described above, the movable body 10 may include one movable element or a plurality of movable elements. Further, the movement of each movable element is not limited to a linear slide, and may include a rotation operation or the like that changes its posture. The movable body 10 may change its shape when displaced between the first position and the second position. For example, in order to reduce the space for housing the movable body 10 located at the first position, the size of the space occupied by the movable body 10 located at the first position is the size of the space occupied by the movable body 10 located at the second position. The shape of the movable body 10 may be changed so as to be smaller than the size. Hereinafter, description will be made using the movable body 10 in which one movable element slides linearly (when the movable body 10 is simply displaced (operated), it means that the movable element is displaced).

  A single movable effect that is one of the movable effects will be described. The single movable effect shown in FIG. 3 is an effect in which the movable body 10 is displaced from the first position to the second position. That is, an opening formed in the game board 90, with all or most of it overlapping the display area 21 of the display device 20 from a state in which the game board 90 is entirely or mostly covered (see FIG. 3A). The state changes to a state visible to the player through 901 (see FIG. 3B). It can be said that the single movable effect is an effect in which only the first effect of the continuously movable effect described later is executed and the second effect is not executed. In this embodiment, after the so-called reach state occurs, the single movable effect may occur at a predetermined timing.

  In the present embodiment, in a single movable effect, when the movable body 10 is located at the second position (in the state shown in FIG. 3B), a predetermined effect element (not shown in FIG. 3) is generated. Let me. The production element may be anything as long as it produces a certain production effect. Various effects such as a sound emitted from the speaker 30 (see FIG. 1), an image displayed in the display area 21 of the display device 20, and a light emitted from the light source can be considered. In the present embodiment, a predetermined effect sound is generated from the speaker 30. In addition, a predetermined image is displayed on at least a part of the display area 21 where the movable body 10 does not overlap. It should be noted that at least a part of one or a plurality of effect elements generated in the single movable effect may be in a corresponding relationship with at least a part of the one or more effect elements generated in the first effect of the continuous movable effect described later. . This is because, as will be described in detail later, the first effect of the continuously movable effect is an effect that is shown to the player as if it were a single movable effect.

  After completion of the single movable effect, the movable body 10 returns to the first position (see FIG. 3C). Thereafter, a pre-determined effect is executed, and the final determination result is notified by a combination of identification symbols.

  A continuous movable effect that is one of the movable effects will be described. 4 is executed after the first effect (see FIGS. 4A and 4B) in which the movable body 10 is displaced from the first position to the second position is executed. On the way to the position or after reaching the first position, a second effect (see FIGS. 4C and 4D) that is displaced again to the second position is a series of effects. A player who has already actually experienced the single movable effect tries to return to the first position after feeling that the single movable effect in which the movable body 10 is displaced to the second position has been executed, or The occurrence of an event in which the returned movable body 10 is displaced again to the second position is experienced.

  After completion of the continuous movable effect, the movable body 10 returns to the first position (see FIG. 4D). Thereafter, a pre-determined effect is executed, and the final determination result is notified by a combination of identification symbols.

  In the continuous movable effect in the present embodiment, the movable body 10 once returned to the first position is positioned again at the second position. Thus, once the movable body 10 is completely returned to the first position, all or most of the movable body 10 is hidden by the game board 90 (the state shown in FIG. 4C). It is possible to further increase the surprise when the body 10 is displaced again towards the second position.

  Further, by setting a plurality of timings at which the movable body 10 is displaced again toward the second position, it is possible to enhance the preference of the production. For example, by setting the movable body 10 to be displaced toward the second position after returning to the first position, or to be displaced toward the second position on the way to the first position, It is possible to enhance the preference of the production.

  The single movable effect and the continuous movable effect may be set so that the jackpot reliability is higher in the case where one occurs than in the other. In the present embodiment, the jackpot reliability is set to be higher when a single movable effect occurs than when a continuous movable effect occurs. Since the single movable effect is an effect that is often installed in known game machines, it is preferable that the continuous movable effect is set to have a higher jackpot reliability than such an effect. Also, if you set a difference in the jackpot reliability in this way, by setting the one with a high jackpot reliability higher than the one with a low jackpot reliability, the production occurrence frequency (probability to occur) is lower, It is possible to increase the value of the performance with the higher jackpot reliability.

  In the first effect and the second effect in the continuous movable effect, when the movable body 10 is located at the second position, a predetermined effect element may be generated. The effect element is at least partially in correspondence with the effect element generated when the movable body 10 is located at the second position during the single movable effect. For example, a predetermined effect sound is generated from the speaker 30 also in a continuously movable effect. In addition, a predetermined image is displayed on at least a part of the display area 21 where the movable body 10 does not overlap (hereinafter, an effect sound generated when the movable body 10 is located at the second position in the first effect is displayed. The effect sound and the image displayed in the display area 21 may be referred to as a first effect image, and the effect sound generated when the movable body 10 is located at the second position in the second effect. Sound and an image displayed in the display area 21 may be referred to as a second effect image). In addition, it may be set as an effect element to make a predetermined light source emit light.

  A plurality of kinds of effect sounds and effect images are set as suggesting the jackpot reliability. For multiple types of production sounds, different types of melody may be used for different types of melody, and different types of sound may be set with elements that make up sounds other than melody, such as different melody levels. May be. For multiple types of effect images, different types of patterns may be used, and different types of differences may be set with elements other than patterns, such as the same pattern but different colors. May be. For example, the weak sound source 303a having the lowest jackpot reliability, the medium sound source 303b having a higher jackpot reliability than the weak sound source 303a, and the strong sound source 303c having a higher jackpot reliability than the medium sound source 303b are set as sounds used as the production sound. Suppose that Further, it is assumed that the weak image 213a having the lowest jackpot reliability and the strong image 213b having the higher jackpot reliability than the weak image 213a are set as the images used as the effect images.

  In the present embodiment, the effect element (effect sound or effect image) emitted in the first effect is set so as to be different from that in the second effect. That is, the first effect sound and the second effect sound may be different, and the first effect image and the second effect image may be different. In the present embodiment, there is a possibility that the effect sound and effect image generated in the first effect change to ones with higher jackpot reliability in the second effect. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the weak sound source 303a is emitted as the first effect sound in the first effect in which the movable body 10 (see FIG. 5A) located at the first position is displaced to the second position. (See FIG. 5 (b)), the movable body 10 (see FIG. 5 (c)) that has returned to the second position is more likely to win as a second effect sound in the second effect where the movable body 10 is displaced again to the second position. There are cases where the medium sound source 303b and the strong sound source 303c with high reliability are emitted (see FIG. 5D). Further, the weak image 213a (see FIG. 5B) is displayed as the first effect image in the first effect in which the movable body 10 (see FIG. 5A) positioned at the first position is displaced to the second position. In such a case, the strong image 213b may be displayed as the second effect image in the second effect in which the movable body 10 (see FIG. 5C) that has returned to the second position is displaced again to the second position. (See FIG. 5 (d)). It should be noted that the effect sound or effect image generated in the first effect may be maintained as it is in the second effect as it is (same), or may be a setting that always changes. Further, only one of the effect sound and the effect image may be changed and the other may be maintained. In the present embodiment, the setting always changes (steps up). As a result, even if a continuously movable effect occurs, it is possible to execute a highly-oriented effect in which the jackpot reliability changes depending on what the effect element will be (how far the step will be stepped up). is there. Note that the first effect in the continuously movable effect is the same as the single movable effect described above in terms of the player's appearance, so that the effect elements as described above may be generated even in the single movable effect.

  These effect elements may be emitted automatically, or may be emitted according to the player's intention. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, when the movable body 10 (see FIG. 6A) located at the first position is displaced to the second position, the operation means 40 (in this embodiment, FIG. The player may be prompted to operate the push button (see FIG. 6B), and an effect element may be emitted when the operation means 40 is operated (see FIG. 6C). In the first effect in the continuously movable effect, an effect element is automatically generated, but in the second effect, the effect is automatically generated in one effect in the continuously movable effect. In addition, in the other production, a production element may be generated according to the player's intention. Moreover, it is good also as a structure determined by lottery each time whether it is set as the production | generation which a production | generation element produces | generates automatically, or the production | generation produced according to a player's intention. In this case, by making a lottery based on the determination result, the jackpot reliability is different between the case where the production that produces the production element automatically occurs and the case where the production produced by the player's intention occurs. It is also possible to set to.

  Moreover, not only such an effect element indicating the degree of jackpot reliability (the effect element suggesting the determination result), but also an effect element not directly related to the jackpot reliability (an effect element not directly related to the result of determination). It is good also as a structure. For example, when the movable body 10 is located at the second position in the first effect, white light is generated from a predetermined light source. When the movable body 10 is located at the second position in the second effect, the predetermined light source is used. It may be configured such that a dedicated effect element is emitted when the movable body 10 is positioned at the second position in each of the first effect and the second effect, such as generating red light. In such a configuration, when the movable body 10 is positioned at the second position in the single movable effect, the first effect in the continuous movable effect and the appearance of the single movable effect are the same. It is preferable to generate white light.

  With such a configuration, it is possible to easily understand that the second effect that the movable body 10 once located at the second position is again located at the second position has occurred (the movable body 10 has failed). It is possible to reduce the risk of misunderstandings that this may have occurred).

  Further, in the continuous movable effect, the range in which the movable body 10 covers the display area 21 of the display device 20 becomes smaller as the movable body 10 located at the second position in the first effect returns to the first position. That is, a wide range of the display area 21 is visually recognized before the movable body 10 is displaced again to the second position. As shown in FIG. 7, in this embodiment, after the first effect (see FIG. 7A), the movable body 10 located at the second position starts to move toward the first position, and then in the second effect. Until the movable body 10 starts to move toward the second position again (when it is in the state shown in FIGS. 7B and 7C), at least the movable body 10 in the display area 21 does not overlap. To prevent information about it from being displayed directly. Specifically, in the present embodiment, at least a range in which the movable body 10 does not overlap in the display area 21 is black (displays an image 22 as if blacked out) (FIGS. 7B and 7C). reference). Note that information related to a game is not directly displayed means that an image is displayed as if the production was temporarily stopped, and predetermined information is displayed so that it is difficult to convey to the player intentionally. Such a configuration is also included. For example, in a state where an image as if it was blacked out is displayed on the display area 21 and the identification symbol is changed so as not to stand out at the corner of the display area 21, information relating to the game is directly It is included in the state that is not displayed in.

  As described above, if the display device 20 does not display the information about the game until the movable body 10 starts to move toward the second position again in the second performance, the movable body 10 is again in the second position. It is possible to improve the impact when starting the displacement toward. That is, by not displaying information about the game in the display area 21, the player feels that the movable body 10 only returns to the first position, and makes the subsequent displacement to the second position surprising. Is possible.

  In such a configuration, a plurality of display modes in which information relating to the game is not directly displayed may be set. For example, a display mode in which the display area 21 is black (a display mode as if blacked out) and a display mode in which the display area 21 is white (a display mode as if whiteout) are set. In the case of the mode, it may be determined that the movable body 10 is displaced again to the second position. That is, in the case of a single movable effect, the black body is always displayed when the movable body 10 located in the second position returns to the first position, and in the case of a continuously movable effect, the second position When the movable body 10 positioned in the position returns to the first position, the display mode may be a white-color display mode, or the display mode may be a white-color display mode. That is, any one of a plurality of types of display modes in which information relating to the game is not directly displayed is an indication of occurrence of a continuous movable effect (an indication that the movable body 10 is positioned at the second position again). May be.

  Also, unlike the above configuration, after the movable body 10 located at the second position after the first effect starts to move toward the first position, the movable member 10 starts to move toward the second position again in the second effect. In the meantime, a specific image related to the second effect may be displayed in a range where at least the movable body 10 does not overlap in the display area 21. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, after the first effect (see FIG. 8A), the movable body 10 located in the second position starts moving toward the first position and then the movable object 10 in the second effect. In at least a part of the period until the displacement starts again toward the second position (when in the state shown in FIGS. 8B and 8C), at least in the range where the movable body 10 does not overlap in the display area 21. A character such as “again?” May be displayed (see FIG. 8C), and it may be suggested that the movable body 10 is displaced again to the second position. In addition, when such a suggestion is made, it may be set such that the movable body 10 is always displaced again to the second position (a setting that determines the occurrence of the continuous movable effect), or such a suggestion is made. The probability that the movable body 10 is displaced again to the second position (probability that a continuous movable effect occurs) may be set to be higher in the case of the case where the suggestion is not made.

  In this manner, if the movable body 10 starts to move toward the second position again in the second effect, a specific image related to the occurrence of the second effect is displayed on the display device 20. It is possible to suggest that the movable body 10 starts to move toward the second position again using the display device 20, and it is possible to improve the preference of the continuous movable effect.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.

  For example, the gaming machine 1 according to the above embodiment is a so-called pachinko gaming machine, but the same technical idea can be applied to other gaming machines such as a slot machine.

Moreover, although the movable production | presentation in the said embodiment demonstrated that the certain success-and-failure determination result suggests the probability (what is called jackpot reliability) that it becomes a big hit, the object suggested by the production is not restricted to this. It may indicate whether or not an event advantageous to a player other than the jackpot occurs. For example, a movable effect may be used as an indication of whether or not to shift to a higher jackpot reliability (in other words, the movable effect indirectly indicates the jackpot reliability) is there). Moreover, the probability that a specific effect (rare effect) etc. generate | occur | produces may be suggested irrespective of the determination result.

Moreover, although the continuous movable effect in the said embodiment demonstrated that the movable body 10 was located in a 2nd position twice, the said frequency | count can be changed suitably. For example, it is good also as a structure which can generate | occur | produce the continuous movable effect which the movable body 10 is located in a 2nd position 3 times or more. However, since the movable body 10 operates normally once as described above, it is the purpose of the present invention to try to surprise the player by operating the movable body 10 twice. It can be said that the significance of operating 10 is poor .
Specific means (game machines) obtained from the above embodiment are listed below.
The gaming machine according to means 1 includes a movable body that is displaceable between a first position and a second position, and is a gaming machine that can execute a movable effect using the movable body, and as the movable effect, The movable body located at the first position is displaced toward the second position, whereby the first effect located at the second position, and the movable body returning to the first position after completion of the first effect. However, in the middle of going to the first position or after reaching the first position, the second effect that is displaced again toward the second position and is located at the second position is continuously executed. A movable effect is set.
The movable body may be composed of one unit, and the one unit may be displaceable between the first position and the second position, or may be composed of a plurality of units. It may be possible to displace between the first position and the second position. In the case of a plurality of units, the first position and the second position are set for each unit.
The continuous movable effect of the gaming machine according to means 1 is that the movable body displaced from the first position to the second position is displaced again to the second position during or after returning to the first position. It is possible to produce a highly interesting production that surprises the person.
The gaming machine according to means 2 is characterized in that in the gaming machine according to means 1, a single movable effect that executes only the first effect can be executed as the movable effect.
If the movable body is displaced from the first position to the second position and is not displaced again to the second position as in the gaming machine according to the means 2, a single movable effect may be executed. It is possible to further enhance the surprise when a continuous movable effect occurs.
In the gaming machine according to means 2, in the gaming machine according to means 2, it is more advantageous for the player when one of the continuous movable effect and the single movable effect occurs than when the other one occurs. It is set so that the probability of occurrence of various events is high.
If a difference is set in the probability of occurrence of an advantageous event for the player when a continuous movable effect and a single movable effect are generated as in the gaming machine according to means 3, what is the movable body? It is possible to increase the player's interest in whether or not it is displaced.
The gaming machine according to means 4 is the gaming machine according to any one of means 1 to 3, wherein one or a plurality of effect elements emitted in a state where the movable body is located at the second position in the first effect. At least a part of them is different from the corresponding effect element emitted in a state where the movable body is located at the second position in the second effect.
If at least a part of the effect elements that are emitted in a state where the movable body is located at the second position in the second effect as in the gaming machine according to the means 4 are different from the corresponding effect elements in the first effect, It is possible to further enhance the production effect for the continuous displacement of the movable body to the second position. Also, if the probability of occurrence of an advantageous event for the player is set higher when the continuous movable effect occurs than when the single movable effect occurs, it is expected that the continuous movable effect has occurred. It is possible to suggest that the game has increased (improving the player's expectation).
The gaming machine according to means 5 is the gaming machine according to any one of means 1 to 4, wherein the continuously movable body in the state where the movable body in the first effect and the second effect is located at the second position. One or a plurality of performance elements suggesting the probability that an event advantageous to the player will occur after the performance may be shown. In the first performance, the movable body is located in the second position. At least a part of the plurality of effect elements may change when the movable body is located at the second position in the second effect.
As in the case of the gaming machine according to the means 5, when the continuously movable effect occurs, if the effect element shown in the first effect changes (steps up, etc.) in the second effect, It is possible to further improve the taste.
The gaming machine according to means 6 is the gaming machine according to any one of means 1 to 5, comprising a display device whose display surface is located behind the movable body in the front-rear direction, and located at the first position. The movable body is set so that the movable body positioned at the second position overlaps the display area of the display device is larger than the movable body overlaps the display area of the display device. After the movable body located at the second position after the production starts the displacement toward the first position, until the movable body starts the displacement toward the second position again in the second production, Information relating to the game is not displayed in a range where the movable body does not overlap in the display area of the display device.
