  In the center of the game area R1 of the game board 11, a specially-shaped game board display window 11H is formed to penetrate, and the display device 13 is opposed to the game board display window 11H from the back side of the game board 11. The display device 13 is configured of a liquid crystal module (for example, a TFT-LCD module), and a display screen 13G (corresponding to the “display unit” of the present invention) is disposed on the back side of the game board 11.

  A display decoration frame 23 is attached to the front center of the game board 11 so as to surround the display screen 13G. The display decoration frame 23 is fitted into the game board display window 11H from the front side of the game board 11, and protrudes from the front of the game board 11 while projecting inside the game board display window 11H. The game balls flowing down the game area R1 are configured not to pass through the outside of the display decoration frame 23 and enter the inside of the display decoration frame 23.

  First and second start winning openings 14A and 14B and a big winning opening 15 are provided side by side in order from the top at a central portion in the left and right direction below the display decoration frame 23 in the game area R1. There is. A plurality of general winning openings 20 are provided along the guide rails 12 on the left side of the first start winning opening 14A. The game balls that did not win any of the winning openings 14A, 14B, 15, 20 are all taken into the out port 16 disposed at the lower end of the game area R1. Further, on the left side of the display decoration frame 23, a start gate 18 is provided. Although not shown, a large number of obstacle nails are implanted in the game area R1.

  Next, the required parts will be described in more detail. The general winning opening 20 has a so-called pocket structure and is open on the upper surface of a member protruding from the front of the game board 11, and the game ball is open upward in a size that allows just one ball to enter. Then, when the game ball enters the general winning opening 20, for example, 10 game balls are paid out to the upper plate 26 as a winning ball.

  The start gate 18 has a gate-shaped structure through which game balls can dive. When the game ball passes through the start gate 18, normal symbol acceptance determination is performed.

  The first and second start winning openings 14A and 14B both have a so-called pocket structure having an opening on the upper surface of a member protruding from the game board 11. The gaming balls having entered each start winning opening 14A, 14B are collected on the back side of the gaming board 11 through the through holes (not shown) provided in the gaming board 11.

  The first starting winning opening 14A disposed on the upper side has an opening width into which only one gaming ball can be inserted. On the other hand, the second starting winning opening 14B disposed on the lower side is disposed immediately below the first starting winning opening 14A, and movable wing pieces 14C and 14C are provided on the left and right sides of the opening. These two movable wing pieces 14C and 14C are always in the upright state, and the opening width of the second start winning hole 14B sandwiched between the two movable wing pieces 14C and 14C is a size that only one game ball can enter It has become. In addition, the space above the second start winning opening 14B is always surrounded by the members constituting the first starting winning opening 14A and the movable wing pieces 14C and 14C so that the game ball does not enter. There is. Then, when the above-described normal symbol conformity determination is a hit, the movable wing pieces 14C and 14C are turned horizontally over a predetermined period. Then, the upper space of the second start winning opening 14B is opened to the side, and the game ball which has passed both sides of the first start winning opening 14A is received by the movable wing piece 14C, and the second start winning opening 14B (In FIG. 1, the overturned movable wing 14C is shown).

  When the game balls are won (entered) in each start winning opening 14A, 14B, for example, four game balls are paid out to the upper plate 26 as a prize ball, and a special symbol acceptance determination is made. That is, in the present embodiment, when the game balls are won in the respective start winning openings 14A and 14B, the right or wrong determination right regarding the special symbol is generated. The determination result of the special symbol acceptance / rejection determination is notified on the display screen 13G of the display device 13 along with the use of the acceptance / rejection determination right. In detail, if the right or wrong judgment right is used, the judgment effect associated with the judgment result is performed on the display screen 13G prior to the notification of the judgment result. Then, if the determination result is a hit, after the notification of the determination result, the game shifts to the "big hit gaming state", and the "big hit game" is executed. On the other hand, when the determination result is out, after the notification of the determination result, the normal gaming state which is not the "big hit gaming state" continues. In addition, in the following, unless otherwise noted, the term “appropriate determination” refers to the special symbol acceptance determination.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the big winning opening 15 is formed in a horizontally long rectangular shape, and is always closed by the movable door 15T. Then, when the "big hit game" is performed, the movable door 15T is turned to the front side for a predetermined period, the big winning opening 15 is opened, the movable door 15T is made a guide, and many gaming balls in the big winning opening 15 Can be won. When the game ball is won in the big winning opening 15, for example, 15 game balls are paid out to the upper plate 26 as a winning ball per one winning.

  As described above, on the display screen 13G of the display device 13, the determination effect associated with the special symbol equivalence determination is displayed. Specifically, three left, middle and right special symbols 13A, 13B and 13C are displayed side by side on the display screen 13G. Each of these special symbols 13A, 13B, 13C is, for example, composed of a plurality of types in which the numerals "0" to "9" are written, and usually, each of the special symbols 13A, 13B, 13C is predetermined. The kinds of things are displayed stopped. Then, when the game balls are prized in the start winning openings 14A, 14B and the determination effect is performed, the three special symbols 13A, 13B, 13C are scrolled (variably displayed) in the vertical direction, and for example, after a predetermined time has elapsed , Left, right, and stopped in order. And by the combination of the stopped special symbols 13A-13C, the judgment result of the special symbol pass / fail judgment is informed, for example, when all the special symbols 13A-13C are the same symbols (Zoro eyes), In the case of combinations other than Zorocara, this is intended to indicate that there is a deviation. As described above, the determination effect is configured by the symbol variation effect using the special symbols 13A to 13C. In the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, the winning judgment game between the start of the winning opening 14A, 14B and the notification of the judgment result on the display screen 13G due to the winning, It is carried out for each winning of the start winning opening 14A, 14B.

  In addition, here, the special symbol 13A and the special symbol 13C, which are displayed first and secondly among the special symbols 13A to 13C, are the same symbol, and the special symbol 13B which is finally displayed to be stopped is in a variable display. The state is called "reach" state, and the effect performed on the display screen 13G in this reach state is called reach effect. There are two types of reach effects: normal reach effect and special reach effect (hereinafter referred to as “SP reach effect”), which has a high expectation for a big hit than normal reach effect.

  If the game ball wins (enters) in the start winning opening 14A, 14B during the judgment effect (that is, during the variable display of the special symbols 13A to 13C) or the big hit game, the right or wrong judgment right resulting from the winning is For example, it is held for up to 4 times, and the judgment result for each right or wrong judgment right and the information on the judgment effect are held and stored. Then, when the judgment effect under execution or the big hit game is ended, the held right or wrong judgment right is used, and a judgment effect corresponding to the right or wrong judgment right is performed. At this time, the right or wrong judgment right is used in principle in the order of occurrence. As shown in FIG. 1, when the right or wrong judgment right is held, the hold indicator 13H corresponding to the right or wrong judgment right of waiting for notification of the judgment result (hereinafter referred to as “hold right” as appropriate) is displayed on the display screen 13G. It is displayed (in the example of FIG. 1, the case where there are three holding rights) is shown.

  In the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, a limited number of probability variation games, so-called special time (hereinafter referred to as “ST”) are executed after the end of the big hit game. Specifically, in ST, the probability that the special symbol hit / fail judgment is a hit is higher than in the normal gaming state, and it becomes a probability change gaming state, and the probability that a normal symbol hit / fail judgment becomes a hit also increases. Become. The ST continues until the number of consecutive disconnections when the determination of the consecutive disconnections is performed after the big hit game is finished reaches a predetermined upper limit number of times (for example, 100 times). Then, after the number of consecutive deviations reaches the prescribed upper limit number, ST ends and the processing shifts to the “normal (non-deterministic change) gaming state”. In the present embodiment, the upper limit number of time saving games is set to a larger value than the upper limit number of STs, and only the time saving state is continued when the ST ends.

  In addition, in the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, a specific effect (hereinafter referred to as "ST time short effect") unrelated to the occurrence of the right or wrong determination right is displayed on the display screen 13G during ST or during time saving. . As shown in FIGS. 9A to 9C, in the ST time short effect, for example, the state of a soccer game is displayed on the entire display screen 13G, and if the team to which the main character of the game belongs is scored, It will be a big hit. In addition, while the ST time short effect is being performed, the special symbols 13A to 13C are reduced and displayed in the corner of the display screen 13G.

  A plurality of types are provided for the scene of the effect displayed on the display screen 13G in the ST time short effect, that is, the effect scene 80 (see FIG. 9. In the example of this embodiment, the scene of the soccer game). It is done. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, in the effect scene 80, 16 types of effect scenes A-1 to D-4 are provided. The plurality of effect scenes A-1 to D-4 are displayed in the order of the effect scene A-1, the effect scene A-2, ..., the effect scene D-4 (the order of the right column in FIG. 2). And are configured to form a series of stories. Hereinafter, the order shown in the right column of FIG. 2 will be referred to as "story order". The story order corresponds to the "preset order" of the present invention.

  In addition, a plurality of effect scenes A-1 to D-4 are stages A to D (the present invention) in which a plurality of effect scenes 80 (for example, effect scenes A-1 to A-4) in which the story order is continuous are grouped together. Correspond to the “effect scene group” of In the present embodiment, among the plurality of effect scenes 80 included in each stage, the effect elements (for example, opponents in a soccer game) are common, and the effect elements are different between the stages.

  The effect scene 80 in the ST time short effect is switched when a preset effect scene switching condition is satisfied. The switching mode of the effect scene 80 is provided with two types, a default order switching mode and a random switching mode. In the default order switching mode, the effect scene 80 is switched in the story order. Further, in the random switching mode, the rendering scene 80 is switched at random. Hereinafter, switching of the effect scene 80 in the default order switching mode and the random switching mode will be described in detail.

  First, switching of the effect scene 80 in the default order switching mode will be described. 3 (A) → FIG. 3 (B) → FIG. 3 (E) → flow of FIG. 3 (F) and FIG. 4 (A) → FIG. 4 (B) → FIG. 4 (E) → FIG. 4 (F) As shown in the flow, in the predetermined order switching mode, the presentation scene 80 is switched triggered by a big hit. Here, in the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, during the ST or in the middle of the hour, it always becomes a big hit via the SP reach effect (FIG. 3 (B) → FIG. 3 (E) and FIG. B) → See the flow in FIG. 4 (E)). Therefore, in the default order switching mode, the SP reach effect is performed, and the effect scene 80 is switched when a big hit occurs. On the other hand, FIG. 3 (A) → FIG. 3 (B) → FIG. 3 (C) → FIG. 3 (D) and FIG. 4 (A) → FIG. 4 (B) → FIG. 4 (C) → FIG. 4 (D) As shown in the flow of), even if the SP reach effect is performed, the effect scene 80 is not switched when the result of the determination of the success or failure is out. In addition, in the gaming machine 10, the SP reach effect has a content to notify whether or not a big hit is made depending on whether or not a team to which a main character of a game belongs in a soccer game scores.

  In the default order switching mode, the effect scene 80 is switched in the story order. In the example shown in FIG. 3, as shown in the change from FIG. 3 (A) to FIG. 3 (F), the first rendering scene A-1 in the story order to the second rendering scene A-2 in the story order , And in the example of FIG. 4, as shown in the change from FIG. 4 (A) to FIG. 4 (F), the effect scene B-4 with the eighth story order to the effect scene C with the ninth story order It has switched to -1.

  Next, switching of the effect scene 80 in the random switching scene will be described. 5 (A) → FIG. 5 (B) → FIG. 5 (C) → the flow of FIG. 5 (D) and FIG. 5 (A) → FIG. 5 (B) → FIG. 5 (E) → FIG. 5 (F) As shown in the flow, in the random switching mode, the rendering scene 80 is switched triggered by the SP reach rendering. Here, the switching of the effect scene 80 in the random switching mode does not relate to the collision of the determination result in the SP reach effect. Therefore, in the random switching mode, the frequency with which the effect scene 80 is switched is higher than in the above-described predetermined order switching mode.

  In the random switching mode, the rendering scene 80 is randomly switched regardless of the story order. Specifically, in the random switching mode, one stage is selected from the stages A to D (see FIG. 2) described above, and the rendering scene 80 among a plurality of rendering scenes included in the selected stage. Switches at random. FIG. 5 shows an example in which the stage A is selected, and FIG. 6 shows an example in which the stage B is selected. As shown in the change from FIG. 6 (A) to FIG. 6 (F), in the random switching mode, even when the effect scene 80 is switched, the effect scene 80 (FIG. 6 (FIG. The same effect scene 80 (effect scene B-4 in FIG. 6F) same as the effect scene B-4 in A) may be displayed.

  In the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, transition to the random switching mode is possible only when a preset mode transition condition is satisfied. One of the mode transition conditions is that when all the effect scenes 80 are displayed in the default order switching mode and the last effect scene 80 is displayed, a big hit occurs. According to this mode transition condition, even in the random switching mode, even when the turn of the rendering scene 80 is broken, all the rendering scenes 80 are already displayed, so the rendering displayed in the random switching mode It is possible to make the player recognize the meaning in the series of stories of the scene 80.

  In addition, another mode transition condition is to become a big hit during a specific period that occurs according to the progress of the game. The specific period is managed by the real time clock, and is set to, for example, 5 minutes between 30 minutes and 35 minutes per hour. According to this other mode transition condition, it is possible to display the effect scene 80 not displayed in the default order switching mode in the random switching mode.

  As shown in the time charts of FIGS. 7 and 8, in the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, a presentation scene subtitle 81 corresponding to the presentation scene 80 being displayed on the display screen 13 G is displayed, and the presentation scene subtitle 81 The subtitle sound 82 corresponding to is output. Specifically, the effect scene subtitles 81 are contents for making a soccer game live, and are scrolled and displayed in a band-like region R2 (see FIG. 9) in the lower part of the display screen 13G. In addition, the subtitle sound 82 is a readout of the presentation scene subtitle 81. Here, since the effect scene subtitles 81 scroll in the horizontal direction orthogonal to the vertical direction in which the special symbols 13A to 13C scroll, it is possible to make the player easily recognize the scroll of the effect scene subtitles 81 .

  As shown in the table of FIG. 2, as the presentation scene subtitles 81, a plurality of types of presentation scene subtitles A'-1 to D'-4 corresponding to the respective presentation scenes A-1 to D-4 are provided, and subtitle audio is provided. As 82, subtitle sound a-1 to d-4 corresponding to the presentation scene subtitles A'-1 to D'-4 is provided. Note that FIG. 7 shows switching of the rendering scene 80 in the default order switching mode, and switching of the rendering scene subtitles 81 and subtitle sound 82 accompanying the switching, and FIG. 8 shows the rendering scene in the random switching mode. Switching of 80 and switching of the effect scene subtitles 81 and subtitle sound 82 accompanying the switching are shown.

  As shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the effect scene subtitle 81 is provided with two types of a normal subtitle 81A and a read subtitle 81B. The normal subtitles 81A have contents irrelevant to the hit of the game, that is, irrelevant to the result of the judgment of success or failure, while the pre-read subtitles 81B have contents indicating the possibility of a big hit. Specifically, the normal subtitle 81A is a content that suggests that there is no significant change in the game, and the read subtitle 81B indicates that the team to which the main character of the game belongs has a chance to score The content is

  As shown in the flow of FIG. 9 (A)-FIG. 9 (C), with normal subtitles 81A, determination effects (pattern variation effects) using special symbols 13A-13C performed due to the occurrence of right or wrong determination right Is scrolled at a constant speed in one direction (direction toward the left side of FIG. 9A). On the other hand, as shown in the change from FIG. 10 (A) to FIG. 10 (B), the read-ahead subtitles 81B is caused by the generation of the right or wrong judgment right (ie, the winning of the second start winning opening 14B). , In place of the subtitles 81A. From another viewpoint, the entire normal subtitle 81A displayed in the band-like region R2 is replaced with the pre-read subtitle 81B due to the occurrence of the right or wrong determination right. Note that FIG. 12 shows a time chart of the normal subtitle 81A and the pre-read subtitle 81B.

  Here, in the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, the replacement to the pre-read subtitles 81B is a timing at which the above-mentioned SP reach effect is executed and pending determination right is stored on hold, that is, the SP reach effect is executed As shown in the flow of FIG. 10 (B) → FIG. 11 (A) → FIG. 11 (B), it is performed at the timing when the right (hereinafter referred to as “SP reach hold” as appropriate) occurs. Is displayed until the SP reach effect (see FIG. 11 (B)) is started. As described above, in the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, the SP reach effect is executed when the normal subtitle 81A is replaced with the read-ahead subtitle 81B, so that the expectation for the big hit is held to the player by the read-ahead subtitle 81B. It becomes possible.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the pre-read subtitle 81B is displayed in a mode different from that of the normal subtitle 81A, which makes it possible to make the player easily notice that the pre-read subtitle 81B is displayed. There is. Specifically, the normal subtitle 81A is displayed in white characters, and the pre-read subtitle 81B is displayed in a color other than white, for example, blue, red or gold (FIG. 10 (B) and FIG. 11 (A) In the example of (1), the difference in display mode between the pre-read subtitle 81B and the normal subtitle 81A is expressed by the difference in font (font). The scroll speed of the pre-read subtitle 81B may be the same as or different from the scroll speed of the normal subtitle 81A.

  Note that, as described above, in the present embodiment, the subtitle sound 82 corresponding to the effect scene subtitle 81 is output along with the scroll display of the effect scene subtitle 81. The subtitle audio 82 is provided with a normal subtitle audio 82A corresponding to the normal subtitle 81A and a read-ahead subtitle audio 82B corresponding to the read-ahead subtitle 81B, and at the timing when each subtitle 81A, 81B is displayed, Each subtitle sound 82A, 82B is output (see FIG. 12).

The CPU 52A includes a control unit, an operation unit, various counters, various registers, various flags, and the like, and is configured to be able to output (send) control signals to the display control circuit 70, the audio control circuit 55, etc. There is. The RAM 52B has a storage area of various data and a work area by the CPU 52A. The ROM 52C includes a sub control circuit main program PG1 (see FIG. 14) described later, a variation pattern table of special symbols 13A to 13C (see FIG. 1), a presentation scene 80, a presentation scene subtitle 81, and a subtitle speech 82 data table (FIG. 2) etc. are stored.

  The display control circuit 70 reads predetermined display control data from the ROM based on the control signal from the sub control circuit 52, generates control data in the storage area of the RAM, and outputs the control data to the VDP (not shown). The VDP reads out necessary data from the ROM based on an instruction from the CPU, and displays a display image (special symbols 13A, 13B, 13C, effect scene 80, effect scene subtitle 81, background image, character image, and the like) displayed on the display screen 13G. Map data of character image etc. is created and stored in VRAM. The image data stored in the VRAM is converted into an RGB signal by a D / A conversion circuit provided in an input / output circuit and output to the display screen 13G.

  The voice control circuit 55 selects the BGM generated from the speakers 25S and 25S and the voice at the time of presentation based on the control signal output from the sub control circuit 52, and controls the voice. The audio data table and the like of the subtitle sound 82 (the normal subtitle sound 82A and the pre-read subtitle sound 82B) are stored in the ROM 52C of the sub control circuit 52.

  In order to realize the operation of the above-described gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, the main control circuit 50, the sub control circuit 52, and the like execute various programs to process information. In the following, in particular, the sub control circuit main program PG1 executed by the sub control circuit 52 will be described as a program related to the present invention.

  The CPU 52A included in the sub control circuit 52 reads and executes the sub control circuit main program PG1 shown in FIG. 14 from the ROM 52C. In the sub control circuit main program PG1, first, initialization processing (S21) of the CPU 52A is performed. Here, setting of the CPU 52A, setting of SIO, PIO, CTC (controller for interrupt time) and the like, and resetting of various flags and counter values are performed. Next, in step S22, it is determined whether the data backed up in the RAM 52B by the power-off is normal. If normal (Yes in S22), the process proceeds to step S24, and if the content of the RAM 52B is not normal (No in S22), the RAM 52B is initialized, various flags and counter values are reset (S23), and the process proceeds to step S24. . These steps S21 to S23 are executed only when the sub control circuit main program PG1 is run for the first time after the power is turned on, and are not executed thereafter.

  When the initial setting is completed in steps S21 to S23, the interruption is inhibited (S24), and the random number seed updating process (S25) is executed. In this process (S25), random numbers necessary for selecting an effect to be performed on the display screen 13G from among a plurality of effect candidates are updated. When step S25 ends, interrupt permission (S26) is performed. Then, these processes (S24 to S26) are repeated in an infinite loop.

  In the sub control circuit main program PG1, the reception interrupt process (S27), the 1 ms timer interrupt process (S28), and the 10 ms timer interrupt process (S29) are executed while interrupting the infinite loop of steps S24 to S26 described above. When the sub control circuit 52 receives a strobe signal from the main control circuit 50, the reception interrupt process (S27) is executed prior to other interrupt processes (S28, S29). The 1 ms timer interrupt process (S28) is executed prior to the 10 ms timer interrupt process (S29), and the 10 ms timer interrupt process (S29) is executed by interrupting the remaining time between the 1 ms timer interrupt processes (S28). Ru.

  In the reception interrupt process (S27), as shown in FIG. 15, first, the strobe signal is checked (S271). If the strobe signal is on (Yes in S271), the control signal (data relating to the variation mode or the determination of adequacy, command, etc.) sent from the main control circuit 50 to the sub control circuit 52 is fetched and stored in the RAM 52B (S272) The reception interrupt process (S27) is ended. If the strobe signal is not on (No in S271), the reception interrupt process (S27) is ended.

  The 1 ms timer interrupt process (S28) is executed each time an interrupt pulse of 1 msec cycle is input to the sub control circuit 52. As shown in FIG. 16, in the 1 ms timer interrupt process (S28), input process (S281), lamp data output process (S282), drive process (S283), 3D conversion IC process (S284), watchdog timer process (S285) ) Is executed. In the input process (S281), switch data for executing a process based on the switch state is input to the RAM 52B. The switch data is created by the 10 ms timer interrupt process (S29). In the lamp data output process (S282), the lamp data created in the 10 ms timer interrupt process (S29) is output. In the drive processing (S 283), creation of data for driving the drive combination, output and the like are performed. In the 3D conversion IC process (S284), creation, output and the like of image data for 3D display are performed. In the watchdog timer process (S285), the watchdog timer is reset.

  The 10 ms timer interrupt process (S29) is executed each time an interrupt pulse of 10 msec cycle is input to the sub control circuit 52. In this 10 ms timer interrupt processing (S29), analysis processing and operation setting of the command received from the main control circuit 50 in the above-described reception interrupt processing (S27) are performed. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 17, in the 10 ms timer interrupt process (S29), main command analysis process (S40), other processes (S41), and watchdog timer counter initialization process (S42) are sequentially performed. .

  As shown in FIG. 18, in the main command analysis process (40), first, it is determined whether or not the command received from the main control circuit 50 is a command related to the variation of the special symbols 13A to 13C (see FIG. 1) S51). If the received command is a command related to fluctuation (Yes in S51), the narration control process (S52) is executed, and then other processes (S53) not deeply related to the present invention are performed, and this main command analysis process (S40) Finish).

  As shown in FIG. 19, in the narration control process (S52), first, it is determined whether or not the pre-reading counter is not 0 (S521). The prefetch counter is set in the special view 2 prefetch process (S61) described later. Specifically, the prefetching counter is the number of pending rights stored pending when displaying the read-ahead subtitles 81B (see FIG. 10 (B)) due to the occurrence of SP reach hold (pending indicator 13H The number is set to 1) and decreases one by one along with the disposal of the reserve right until the SP reach reserve is digested.

  If it is determined in step S521 that the pre-reading counter is not 0, that is, it is determined that the pre-reading subtitle 81B is being displayed (Yes in S521), the pre-reading counter is decremented by 1 (S522), and the pre-reading counter after subtraction is It is determined whether it is 0 (S523). If the preread counter after subtraction is 0, that is, if the preread subtitle 81B is not displayed due to the next change (Yes in S523), it is determined whether the random switching mode is set (S524) . On the other hand, when the preread counter after subtraction is not 0, that is, the preread subtitle 81B (see FIG. 10B) is displayed even with the next change (No in S523), this narration control process (S52) Finish.

  If it is determined in step S524 that the random switching mode is not set (No in S524), the narration control process (S52) is ended. On the other hand, when it is determined that the random switching mode is set in step S524 (Yes in S524), the effect scene 80 to be displayed after the end of the SP reach effect notified by the display of the pre-reading subtitles 81B is A lottery / setting is made from a plurality of effect scenes 80 included in the stage (one of the stages A to D) selected in the random switching mode (S525), and the narration control process (S52) is ended. The effect scene 80 set in step S525 is displayed on the display screen 13G after the SP reach effect is executed in the other processing (S53) in the main command analysis processing (S40) shown in FIG.

  When it is determined in step S521 that the pre-reading counter is 0, that is, it is determined that the pre-reading subtitles 81B (see FIG. 10B) is not displayed (No in S521), the random switching mode is set. It is determined whether or not there is (S526). When the random switching mode is not set, that is, when the default order switching mode is set (No in S526), the effect scene subtitle 81 corresponding to the presentation scene 80 currently set in the default order switching mode The subtitle sound 82 (in FIG. 19, denoted as "narration") is output (S530), and the narration control process (S52) is ended. On the other hand, when the random switching mode is set (Yes in S526), the effect scene subtitle 81 and the subtitle sound 82 corresponding to the effect scene 80 currently set in the random switching mode are output (S527).

  When the effect scene subtitles 81 and the subtitle sound 82 are output in step S527, then, the fluctuation currently being executed becomes the switching trigger of the effect scene 80 (for example, the fluctuation in which the SP reach effect is performed. , And it is described as "variation that the narration disappears." (S528). If the variation currently being executed is not the variation serving as the switching trigger of the effect scene 80 (No in S528), the narration control process (S52) is ended. On the other hand, if the currently executing fluctuation is a fluctuation serving as a switching trigger of the rendering scene 80 (Yes in S528), the rendering scene 80 to be displayed after the ending of the switching triggering fluctuation is selected in the random switching mode A lottery / setting is made from among a plurality of effect scenes 80 included in the current stage (S529), and this narration control process (S52) is ended.

  As shown in FIG. 18, when it is determined in step 51 of the main command analysis process (S40) that the command received from the main control circuit 50 is not a command related to fluctuation (No in S51), the received command is It is determined whether it is a command related to the opening of the big hit game (S54). When the received command is a command related to the opening of the big hit game (Yes in S54), after the opening process (S55) is performed, other processes (S53) not deeply related to the present invention are performed, and this main command analysis process The (S40) ends.

  As shown in FIG. 20, in the opening process (S55), first, it is determined whether the big hit game related to the received command is the first hit (ie, it is not a big hit in ST or time) (S551). If it is the first hit (Yes in S551), it is determined whether the mode transition condition to the random switching mode is satisfied (S552). When the mode transition condition is satisfied (Yes in S552), the selection permission of the random switching mode is turned on (S553), the other process (S554) is performed, and the opening process (S55) is ended. On the other hand, when the mode transition condition is not satisfied (No in S552), the other process (S554) is performed, and the opening process (S55) is ended.

  If it is determined in step S551 that the big hit game related to the received command is not the first hit (No in S551), it is determined whether the random switching mode is set to OFF (S555). If the random switching mode is not set to off, that is, if the random switching mode is set (S555: No), the other processing (S554) is performed, and the opening processing (S55) is ended. On the other hand, when the random switching mode is set to off, that is, when the default order switching mode is set (Yes in S555), the rendering scene 80 currently being set is the sixteenth rendering scene 80 (story order It is judged whether it is the last presentation scene D-4) (S556).

  When it is determined in step S556 that the currently-set effect scene 80 is the sixteenth effect scene 80 (Yes in S556), the random switching mode is set to on (S557), and the other processing (S554). ) And the opening process (S55) is ended. On the other hand, when the current rendering scene is not the sixteenth rendering scene 80 (S556: No), the other processing (S554) is performed, and the opening processing (S55) is ended. As is clear from the processing of steps S 556 to S 557, when all the rendering scenes 80 are displayed in the default order switching mode, the mode automatically shifts to the random switching mode.

  As shown in FIG. 18, when it is determined in step S54 of the main command analysis process (S40) that the received command is not the command related to the opening of the big hit game (No in S54), the received command is of the big hit game It is determined whether it is a command related to ending (S56). If the received command is a command relating to a big hit game ending, after the ending processing (S57) is executed, other processing (S53) not deeply related to the present invention is performed, and this main command analysis processing (S40) is executed. finish.

  As shown in FIG. 21, in the ending process (S57), first, it is determined whether or not the big hit game related to this command is the first hit (that is, it is not a big hit in ST or time) (S571). If it is the first hit (Yes in S571), it is determined whether the selection permission of the random switching mode is ON (S572). If the random switching mode selection permission is on (Yes in S572), it is determined whether a game in the random switching mode is selected (S573). When the game in the random switching mode is selected (Yes in S573), the random switching mode is set to ON (S574), the other processing (S575) is performed, and the ending processing (S57) is ended.

  In step S572, when it is determined that the selection permission of the random switching mode is not on, that is, it is determined that the selection of the random switching mode is prohibited (No in S572), or in step S573, the game in the random switching mode is If it is determined that it is not selected (No in S573), the random switching mode is set to off (that is, the default order switching mode is set) (S576), and the currently set effect scene 80 is 1 It is determined whether it is the second effect scene 80 (effect scene A-1) (S577).

  If the currently set effect scene is the first effect scene (No in S577), the first effect scene 80 is set as the effect scene 80 to be displayed in the ST time short effect after the big hit game is over (S579) And the other processing (S575), and the ending processing (S57) is ended. If the currently set effect scene 80 is not the first effect scene 80, that is, if the second and subsequent effect scenes 80 are set (Yes in S577), the effect scene 80 in the previous ST time short effect is It is determined whether or not to play a game from the continuation of (that is, to play a game from the same effect scene 80 as the previous ST time short effect) is selected (S578). If it is selected to play the game from the continuation (Yes in S578), the other processing (S575) is performed, and the ending processing (S57) is ended. On the other hand, when it is not selected to play from the continuation (S578: No), the first effect scene 80 is set as the effect scene 80 to be displayed in the ST time short effect after the big hit game end (S579) The processing (S575) is performed to end the ending processing (S57).

  As shown in FIG. 21, if it is determined in step S571 that the big hit game related to this command is not the first hit (that is, it is a big hit in ST or in the middle of a short time) (No in S571), the random switching mode It is determined whether or not is set to off (S580). When the random switching mode is set to off, that is, when the default order switching mode is set (Yes in S 580), it is currently set as the effect scene 80 to be displayed in the ST time short effect after the big hit end An effect scene 80 one story behind the effect scene 80 being present is set (S581), the other process (S575) is performed, and the ending process (S57) is ended. On the other hand, if the random switching mode is not set to off, that is, if the random switching mode is set (S580: No), the other processing (S575) is performed and this ending processing (S57) is ended. Do. In the latter case (No in S580), the effect scene 80 after the end of the big hit game is set in status command processing (S59) described later.

  As shown in FIG. 18, when it is determined in step S56 of the main command analysis process (S40) that the received command is not a command related to the ending of the big hit game (No in S56), the received command is a game status It is determined whether it is a command related to (S58). If the received command is a command related to the game status (Yes in S58), after executing status command processing (S59), other processing (S53) not deeply related to the present invention is performed, and this main command analysis is performed. The process (S40) ends.

  As shown in FIG. 22, in status command processing (S59), first, it is determined whether or not the game is in ST or in a short time (S591). If the game is not in ST or short (S591: No), the random switching mode is set to OFF (S594), and the status command process (S59) is ended. On the other hand, when the game is in ST or in time-saving mode (Yes in S591), it is determined whether the random switching mode is set to ON (S592). If the random switching mode is not set to ON, that is, if the default order switching mode is set (No in S592), the status command processing (S59) is ended. When the random switching mode is set to ON (Yes in S592), the rendering scene 80 to be displayed on the display screen 13G is selected from the plurality of rendering scenes 80 included in the stage selected in the random switching mode. A lottery / setting is made (S593), and this status command processing (S59) is ended.

  As shown in FIG. 18, when the received command is not the command related to the status in step S58 of the main command analysis process (S40) (No in S58), the received command is the second start winning opening 14B (FIG. 1) It is determined whether it is a command (hereinafter referred to as “special figure 2 winning command” as appropriate) regarding winning to “reference” (S60). When the received command is not the special figure 2 prize command (No in S60), other processing (S53) not deeply related to the present invention is performed, and the main command analysis processing (S40) is ended. When the received command is the special figure 2 prize command (Yes in S60), after the special figure 2 prefetch command process (S61) is executed, the other process (S53) not deeply related to the present invention is performed, and this process is executed. The main command analysis process (S40) is ended.

  As shown in FIG. 23, in the special view 2 look-ahead process (S61), first, it is determined whether the game is in ST or in a short time (S611). If the game is not in ST or short (S611: No), this special view 2 prefetch process (S61) is ended. When the game is in ST or in time saving (Yes in S611), whether or not the pre-reading counter is 0 or not (that is, the pre-reading subtitles 81B (see FIG. 10B) is being displayed) ) Is determined (S612). If the pre-reading counter is not 0 (No in S612), the special view 2 pre-reading process (S61) is ended. On the other hand, when the read ahead counter is 0 (Yes in S612), the output of the read subtitles 81B and the read subtitle sound 82B (hereinafter referred to as "prefetch narration" as appropriate) is lottery, and the lottery Whether or not to carry out the preread narration is determined based on (S613).

  When the pre-reading narration is performed (Yes in S613), the pre-reading counter is set to the number of holding rights (S614), and the pre-reading narration corresponding to the set pre-reading counter (pre-reading subtitle 81B and pre-reading subtitle voice 82B) Is set (S615). Then, the pre-reading narration set in step S615 is performed (the pre-reading subtitles 81B and the pre-reading subtitle sound 82B are output) (S616), and the special view 2 pre-reading processing (S61) is ended. On the other hand, when the pre-reading narration is not performed (No in S613), the special view 2 pre-reading process (S61) is ended.
