If only “Winner_Unquestion_1” to “Winner_Unquestion_6” are provided, 15 cards are paid out regardless of the mode of operation of the stop switch 50. Therefore, it is important to change the net increase in the bonus internal state. When the game machine 10 is placed and only “winning_LC_A1” to “winning_RC_B_6” are provided, the operation mode of the stop switch 50 from which 15 cards are paid out varies depending on the type of CBBF. It becomes a gaming machine 10 that puts emphasis on changing.

  In addition, as a duplicate winning aspect of the small role, “winner_LC_A_0” to “winner_RC_B_0” is not provided without both “winner_unquestion_1” to “winner_unquestion_6” and “winner_LC_A_1” to “winner_RC_B_6”. You may make it provide only.

In addition, “Winning_LC_A_1” to “Winning_RC_B_6” are provided as duplicate winning modes, and “Winning_unquestion_1” to “Winning_unquestion_6” and “Replay_Chance high / low_1” to “Replay_Chance high / low_6”. In addition, as a winning combination mode, “winning_unquestion_1” to “winning_unquestion_6” are provided, and “winning_LC_A_1” to “winning_RC_B_6” and “replay_chance level” _1 "to" replay_chance height_6 "may not be provided.
In addition, as a duplicate winning mode, “replay_chance height_1” to “replay_chance height_6” are provided, and “winning_unquestion_1” to “winning_unquestion_6” and “winning_LC_A_1” to “winning_RC_B_6”. And may not be provided.

Next, with reference to FIG. 8, a description will be given of the lottery probability of each overlapping winning mode and the overlapping winning mode that is the target of the lottery in each gaming state.
In the normal gaming state (NOM), the winning probability of “losing” is set to “0/65536”, that is, it is set not to be an object of the lottery drawing.
In the bonus internal intermediate states “CBB1F” to “CBB6F”, “4/65536” is set. When a combination other than the bonus transition combination “CBB1” to “CBB6” is not won, the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus transition combination “CBB1” to “CBB6” is stopped on the active line 86 and won. The bonus game states “CBB1” to “CBB6” are set to be transferable.

Therefore, if the current game state is not advantageous to the player, such as the bonus internal medium state “CBB1F”, the player actively plays the game so as to align the symbols corresponding to “CBB1”. In the normal game state where the bonus game state “CBB1” is quickly shifted from the bonus internal state “CBB1F” to the bonus game state “CBB1”, the player is again transferred to the bonus transition role “CBB6” or the like. Thus, a new gameability is born in which a game aiming for winning of a role for shifting to the advantageous inside bonus state “CBB6F” is born.
In order to secure such gameability, it is possible to inform the player which bonus internal state is the current gaming state, and it is also possible to inform the player that the game has a uniform pattern. It is.

  As will be described later, it is possible to make it impossible to shift from the bonus internal medium state to the bonus game state.

  In addition, the winning probability of the overlapping winning mode “replay_normal_variation” is set to vary between the normal game state (NOM) and the bonus internal state (CBB1F to CBB6F). The “common” winning probability is set so as not to fluctuate between the normal gaming state (NOM) and the bonus internal medium state (CBB1F to CBB6F).

Further, in the normal gaming state (NOM) and the bonus internal middle state (CBB1F to CBB6F), the winning probability of the overlapping winning mode “regame_chance high_1” is “1000/65536”, and “regame_chance high_2” Is a winning probability of “1100/65536”, a winning probability of “replay_chance high / low_3” is “1200/65536”, and a winning probability of “replay_chance high / low_4” is “1300/65536”. The winning probability of “replay_chance high / low_5” is “1400/65536”, the winning probability of “replay_chance high / low_6” is “1500/65536”, and “replay_chance high / low_1” "Replay_Chance High / Low_6" is set with a higher probability than "."
Therefore, as will be described later with reference to FIG. 9, in the case of the bonus internal middle state “CBB6F”, when “replay_chance height_6” having the highest winning probability is won, “chance replay height” is won. Therefore, when the game state is the bonus internal medium state “CBB6F”, the chance of AT transition lottery is the largest, which is advantageous compared to other bonus internal medium states such as “CBB1F”. .

In addition, the winning probabilities of the winning lottery of “replay_chance height_1” to “replay_chance height_6” are set to the same probability in all the bonus internal intermediate states “CBB1F” to “CBB6F”.
For example, the winning probability of “replay_chance height_1” is “1000/65536” regardless of whether the bonus internal state is “CBB1F” or “CBB6F”, and “replay_chance height_6” The winning probability is “1500/65536” regardless of whether the bonus internal state is “CBB1F” or “CBB6F”.

  Further, in the normal game state (NOM) and the bonus internal middle state (CBB1F to CBB6F), the winning probability of the overlapping winning mode “winning_unquestion_1” is “40/65536”, and the overlapping winning mode “winning_unquestion_2”. The winning probability of “96/65536”, the winning probability of the duplicate winning mode “winning_unquestion_3” is “144/65536”, and the winning probability of the double winning mode “winning_unquestion_4” is “192/65536”. ”, The winning probability of the duplicate winning mode“ winning_unquestion_5 ”is“ 240/65536 ”, the winning probability of the double winning mode“ winning_unquestion_6 ”is“ 288/65536 ”, and“ winning_unquestioned ” “Winner_Unquestioned_6” is set with a higher probability than “_1”.

Here, in the normal gaming state (NOM), when “winning_unquestion_1” to “winning_unquestion_6” are won, regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch 50, “winning_1” In the bonus internal state (CBB1F to CBB6F), “15 winnings” is set to win according to each bonus internal state.
Therefore, as will be described later with reference to FIG. 10, in the case of the bonus internal state “CBB6F”, when “winning_unquestion_6” having the highest winning probability is won, Since “winner_15” is set to win, the probability of winning “winner_15” is the highest in the bonus internal medium state “CBB6F” compared to other bonus internal medium states such as “CBB1F”. It is high.

In addition, the winning probabilities of the winning lottery of “winner_unquestion_1” to “winner_unquestion_6” are set to the same probability in all bonus internal state “CBB1F” to “CBB6F”.
For example, the winning probability of “winner_unquestion_1” is “40/65536” regardless of whether the bonus internal state is “CBB1F” or “CBB6F”, and the winning probability of “winner_unquestion_6” is The bonus internal medium state “CBB1F” or “CBB6F” is “288/65536”.

  Also, in the normal gaming state (NOM) and the bonus internal medium state (CBB1F to CBB6F), the winning probability of the overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A1” to “winning_RC_B_1” belonging to the AT role group 1 is “4/65536”. The winning probabilities of the duplicate winning modes “winning_LC_A2” to “winning_RC_B_2” belonging to the AT role group 2 are “8/65536”, and winning of the overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A3” to “winning_RC_B_3” belonging to the AT role group 3 Probability is “12/65536”, and the winning probabilities of “winning_LC_A4” to “winning_RC_B_4” belonging to the AT role group 4 are “16/65536”, and the overlapping winning manner “belonging to the AT role group 5” The winning probability of “winning_LC_A5” to “winning_RC_B_5” is “20/655” 6 "a is, overlapping winning aspect belonging to the AT role group 6," winning _LC_A6 "- winning probability of" winning _RC_B_6 "is" 24/65536 ".

That is, the winning lottery winning probabilities for the AT role groups 1 to 6 in the same bonus internal intermediate state among the bonus internal intermediate states “CBB1F” to “CBB6F” are set to different probabilities.
For example, the winning probability of the AT role group 1 in the bonus medium state “CBB1F” is “48/65536” (12 pieces of 4/65536), and the winning probability of the AT role group 2 is “96/65536”. (For 12 of 8/65536), the winning probability of AT role group 3 is “144/65536” (for 12 of 12/65536), and the winning probability of AT role group 4 is “192 / 65536 ”(12 pieces of 16/65536), the winning probability of AT role group 5 is“ 240/65536 ”(12 pieces of 20/65536), and the winning probability of AT role group 6 is“ 288/65536 "(12 pieces of 24/65536), which are set to different probabilities. This is the same even in the bonus internal intermediate states “CBB2F” to “CBB6F”.

As shown in FIG. 8, the winning probability of the winning lottery for each of the AT winning groups 1 to 6 is set to the same probability in all the bonus internal intermediate states “CBB1F” to “CBB6F”.
For example, the winning combination probability of the AT combination group 1 is “48/65536” (for 12 of 4/65536) regardless of whether the bonus internal state is “CBB1F” or “CBB6F”. The winning probability is “288/65536” (12 pieces of 24/65536) regardless of whether the bonus internal state is “CBB1F” or “CBB6F”.

(Reel control means 220)
The reel control means 220 is a means provided in the main control board 200, and is for stopping the rotation of each rotary reel 62. The reel control unit 220 stops the rotation of each rotary reel 62 based on the lottery result of the combination lottery unit 210 and the rotation position of the corresponding rotary reel 62 when each stop switch 50 is operated. Note that the reel control means 220 may set a condition for stopping whether or not the order (pushing order) when the stop switches 50 are operated to stop meets a predetermined condition as necessary. The processing by the reel control means 220 is performed in step S12 (see FIG. 14) described later.

  Also, the reel control means 220 changes the control of the rotating reel 62 according to the gaming state (see FIG. 12), so that even if the same overlapping winning mode is won by the winning lottery, the reel controlling means 220 is placed on the active line 86 depending on the gaming state. The combination of symbols to be stopped is changed.

  As shown in FIG. 5 to FIG. 7, when the gaming state is the normal gaming state (NOM), the winning combination “CBB1” to “CBB6” is won by the winning lottery, and the corresponding symbol combination is on the active line 86. When the stop switch 50 is operated at a timing at which stop display is possible, the rotary reels 62 are controlled so that the corresponding symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the active line 86 to win "CBB1" to "CBB6" When the bonus game state “CBB1” to “CBB6” is shifted and the stop switch 50 is operated at a timing at which the corresponding symbol combination cannot be stopped and displayed on the active line 86, the transition is made to “CBB1F” to “CBB6F”. To do.

  As described above, the winning probability of the winning lottery is set to be higher for the “winning_unquestion_6” than the “winning_unquestion_1”. In the case of the bonus internal medium state “CBB6F”, When the “winning_unquestioned_6” with the highest probability of winning is won, the “winning_15” included in the “winning_unquestion_6” is set to win, so the gaming state is in the bonus internal state In the case of “CBB6F”, the probability of winning “winning_15” is higher, which is advantageous compared to the case of another internal bonus state such as “CBB1F”.

  As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7 and FIG. 11, when the gaming state is the bonus internal medium state “CBB1F”, duplicate winning modes “winning_LC_A_1” to “ When winning one of the “winning_RC_B_1” (duplicate winning mode divided into the AT role group 1), regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch 50, the identification included in the overlapping winning mode “winning_LC_A_1” to “winning_RC_B_1” The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to “15 winning prizes” which is an example of a combination is displayed on the active line 86 in a stopped manner.

In addition, when other overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A_2” to “winning_RC_B_6” are won, the rotary reel 62 is selected so that the winning combination among the winning combinations included in the overlapping winning mode varies depending on the operation mode of the stop switch 50. To control.
Specifically, for example, the operation mode of the stop switch 50 corresponding to “winning_15 sheets (LC)” which is a combination included in the winning winning type “winning_LC_A_2” won in the overlapping winning mode “winning_LC_A_2”. When operated in the (push order), the rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to the “winning_15 (LC)” is stopped and displayed on the effective line 86, and the operation mode of the other stop switches 50 is controlled. When operated in (push order), if the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one”, which is a role included in the duplicate winning mode, is operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86, The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one” is stopped and displayed on the active line 86, and is not operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86. In this case, the rotary reel 62 is controlled so as to stop at the corner.

  In addition, when the game state is the bonus internal medium state “CBB2F”, the overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A_2” to “winning_RC_B_2” (winning winnings divided into AT role group 2) predetermined for the “CBB2F” by the winning lottery are determined. If one of the modes is won, it corresponds to “winner_15”, which is an example of a specific role included in the duplicate winning mode “winner_LC_A_2” to “winner_RC_B_2” regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch 50. The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the active line 86.

In addition, when other winning combinations “winning_LC_A_1” to “winning_RC_B_1” and “winning_LC_A_3” to “winning_RC_B_6” are won, the winning combination among the roles included in the overlapping winning mode according to the operation mode of the stop switch 50 is selected. The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the winning combination varies.
Specifically, for example, the operation mode of the stop switch 50 corresponding to “winning_15 sheets (LC)” which is a combination included in the selected winning mode “winning_LC_A_1” won in the overlapping winning mode “winning_LC_A_1”.

Specifically, for example, the operation mode of the stop switch 50 corresponding to “winning_15 sheets (LC)” which is a combination included in the selected winning mode “winning_LC_A_4” is won in the overlapping winning mode “winning_LC_A_4”. When operated in the (push order), the rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to the “winning_15 (LC)” is stopped and displayed on the effective line 86, and the operation mode of the other stop switches 50 is controlled. When operated in (push order), if the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one”, which is a role included in the duplicate winning mode, is operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86, The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one” is stopped and displayed on the active line 86, and is not operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86. In this case, the rotary reel 62 is controlled so as to stop at the corner.

  In addition, when the game state is the bonus internal medium state “CBB4F”, the winning combination modes “winner_LC_A_4” to “winner_RC_B_4” (duplicate winnings divided into AT role group 4) predetermined for the “CBB4F” by the winning lottery are determined. If one of the modes is won, it corresponds to “winning_15” which is an example of the specific combination included in the duplicate winning mode “winning_LC_A_4” to “winning_RC_B_4” regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch 50. The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the active line 86.

In addition, when other winning types “winning_LC_A_1” to “winning_RC_B_3” and “winning_LC_A_5” to “winning_RC_B_6” are won, the winning combination among the roles included in the overlapping winning mode according to the operation mode of the stop switch 50 is won. The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the winning combination varies.
Specifically, for example, the operation mode of the stop switch 50 corresponding to “winning_15 sheets (LC)” which is a combination included in the selected winning mode “winning_LC_A_3” won in the double winning mode “winning_LC_A_3”. When operated in the (push order), the rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to the “winning_15 (LC)” is stopped and displayed on the effective line 86, and the operation mode of the other stop switches 50 is controlled. When operated in (push order), if the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one”, which is a role included in the duplicate winning mode, is operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86, The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one” is stopped and displayed on the active line 86, and is not operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86. In this case, the rotary reel 62 is controlled so as to stop at the corner.

  In addition, when the game state is the bonus internal medium state “CBB5F”, the overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A_5” to “winning_RC_B_5” (duplicating winnings divided into AT role group 5) predetermined for the “CBB5F” by the lottery are selected. If one of the modes is won, it corresponds to “winner_15” which is an example of the specific combination included in the duplicate winning mode “winner_LC_A_5” to “winner_RC_B_5” regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch 50. The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the active line 86.

In addition, when other overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A_1” to “winning_RC_B_4” and “winning_LC_A_6” to “winning_RC_B_6” are won, the winning combination among the roles included in the overlapping winning mode according to the operation mode of the stop switch 50 is selected. The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the winning combination varies.
Specifically, for example, an operation mode of the stop switch 50 corresponding to “winning_15 sheets (LC)” which is a winning combination included in the selected winning mode “winning_LC_A_6” won in the double winning mode “winning_LC_A_6”. When operated in the (push order), the rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to the “winning_15 (LC)” is stopped and displayed on the effective line 86, and the operation mode of the other stop switches 50 is controlled. When operated in (push order), if the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one”, which is a role included in the duplicate winning mode, is operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86, The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one” is stopped and displayed on the active line 86, and is not operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86. In this case, the rotary reel 62 is controlled so as to stop at the corner.

  In addition, when the game state is the bonus internal medium state “CBB6F”, the overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A_6” to “winning_RC_B_6” (overlapping winnings classified into AT role group 6) predetermined for the “CBB6F” by the lottery are selected. If one of the modes is won, it corresponds to “winner_15”, which is an example of a specific role included in the duplicate winning mode “winner_LC_A_6” to “winner_RC_B_6” regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch 50. The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the active line 86.

Further, when other overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A_1” to “winning_RC_B_5” are won, the rotary reel 62 so that the winning combination among the winning combinations included in the overlapping winning mode varies depending on the operation mode of the stop switch 50. To control.
Specifically, for example, the operation mode of the stop switch 50 corresponding to “winning_15 sheets (LC)” which is a combination included in the selected winning mode “winning_LC_A_1” won in the overlapping winning mode “winning_LC_A_1”. When operated in the (push order), the rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to the “winning_15 (LC)” is stopped and displayed on the effective line 86, and the operation mode of the other stop switches 50 is controlled. When operated in (push order), if the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one”, which is a role included in the duplicate winning mode, is operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86, The rotary reel 62 is controlled so that the symbol combination corresponding to “winning_one” is stopped and displayed on the active line 86, and is not operated at a timing that can be stopped and displayed on the active line 86. In this case, the rotary reel 62 is controlled so as to stop at the corner.

  As described above, since the AT role group 6 is set to have a higher winning probability of the winning lottery in the overlapping winning mode divided into groups than the AT role group 1, the AT role group 6 “CBB6F”, a bonus internal state where “15 winnings” wins, is more “winning” than “CBB1F” where “15 winnings” are not won even if they are selected in the overlapping winning mode classified into AT role group 6. The probability of winning “_15” is increased, which is advantageous to the player.

Although not shown in the figure, when the gaming state is the bonus gaming state “CBB1” to “CBB6”, “winning_3” or “winning_1” is selected depending on the operation timing of the stop switch 50 regardless of the result of the winning lottery. The corresponding symbol combination is stopped and displayed on the active line 86.

(Stop symbol judging means 230)
The stop symbol determination means 230 is a means provided in the main control board 200, for storing a combination of symbols 61 on the effective line 86 when all the rotary reels 62 are stopped, and determining a winning etc. is there. The processing by the stop symbol determination means 230 is performed in step S13 (see FIG. 14) described later.

(Discharge control means 240)
The payout control means 240 is for performing predetermined processing such as medal payout based on the determination result of the stop symbol determination means 230. The payout control means 240 pays out medals when it is determined that the small role is winning as a result of the determination by the stop symbol determining means 230. The processing by the payout control means 240 is performed in step S14 (see FIG. 14) described later.

(Game state control means 250)
The gaming state control means 250 controls the gaming state.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, the gaming state control means 250 is roughly divided into a normal gaming state control means 251, a bonus internal / medium state control means 252, and a bonus gaming state control means 253.

(Normal gaming state control means 251)
The normal game state control means 251 controls the “normal game state” (see FIG. 12). Here, the normal game state refers to a state other than the bonus internal medium state by the bonus internal medium state control unit 252 and the bonus game state by the bonus game state control unit 253.

(Bonus internal medium state control means 252)
The bonus internal medium state control means 252 controls the “bonus internal medium state” (see FIG. 12). Here, the bonus internal state is shifted to the case where the bonus transition combinations “CBB1” to “CBB6” are won, but the combination of symbols 62 corresponding to the bonus transition combination cannot be stopped and displayed on the active line 86. .

(Bonus gaming state control means 253)
The bonus game state control means 253 controls the “bonus game state” (see FIG. 12).
The bonus game state shifts by winning the bonus transition combinations “CBB1” to “CBB6” and stopping and displaying the combination of symbols 61 corresponding to the bonus transition combination on the active line 86.

Here, the bonus game states “CBB1” to “CRBB6” are terminated when a predetermined number of medals, for example, more than 28 medals are paid out.
Then, after the bonus game state ends, the normal game state is entered.

(Advantageous section control means 260)
The advantageous section control means 260 controls a non-favorable section in which an operation mode of a stop switch 50, which will be described later with reference to FIG.
And the production | generation etc. which alert | report the pushing order of the stop switch 50 using the production | generation control means 320 mentioned later are performed.

  Further, the advantageous section control means 260 wins the lottery for the transition from the “non-advantageous section” to the “advantageous section” performed when a predetermined condition is satisfied, for example, when a predetermined combination is won by the combination lottery. Thus, the “non-advantageous section” is shifted to the “advantageous section” (see FIG. 13).

  In addition, it is not limited to the case where the transition is made to the case where it is decided to shift to the advantageous section by the lottery (advantageous section transition lottery) executed in response to the winning of the predetermined part by the part lottery. By winning the determined combination, it is possible to shift from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section without performing the advantageous section transition lottery.

  Further, the advantageous section control means 260 wins a winning combination determined in advance by a winning lottery, and in this embodiment, one of the overlapping winning modes “replay_chance height_1” to “replay_chance height-6”. When “Chance Replay High” is won and “Chance Replay Low” is won, a transition lottery (AT transition lottery) is performed to determine whether or not to shift from the advantageous section normal state to the AT state. When the lottery is won, the normal section is shifted from the normal state to the AT state.

Here, the winning probability of the AT transition lottery is set such that “chance replay high” is higher than “chance replay low”.
As shown in FIG. 9, “replay_chance height_1” has a higher winning probability of the role lottery than “replay_chance height_1”, and the bonus internal medium state “CBB6F” In this case, when “replay_chance height_6” having the highest winning probability is won, “chance replay height” is set to win, so in the case where the gaming state is the bonus internal medium state “CBB6F” The number of opportunities for AT transfer lottery is the largest, which is advantageous compared to the case of other internal bonus states such as “CBB1F”.

In addition, when winning a winning combination determined in advance by the role lottery, it is not limited to performing the AT shift lottery, and the AT shift lottery is performed based on the winning combination by the role lottery and the gaming state (see FIG. 12). You may do it.
That is, when a winning combination determined in advance for each gaming state (see FIG. 12) is won, the AT transfer lottery may be performed without determining whether or not the winning combination has been won.
Specifically, in the case of “CBB1F”, “replay_chance high / low_1”, and in the case of “CBB2F”, “replay_chance high / low_2” is awarded in each game state as “chance replay high”. When a winning combination is won, an AT transition lottery is performed. In addition, a so-called “rare role” such as “watermelon” or “cherry” may be provided as a role lottery object of the role lottery means 210, and AT transition lottery may also be performed for the “rare role”.

  The “advantageous section” in the claims indicates the AT state among the advantageous sections controlled by the advantageous section control means 260.

Further, the advantageous section control means 260 starts counting the number of games when it has shifted to the advantageous section, and the counted number of games reaches a predetermined number of games, for example, 666 games, determined by the number of ceiling games. By doing so, a transition is made to the AT state described later (so-called ceiling).
Note that the predetermined number of games is not limited to the case where the number is determined by lottery, and may be a predetermined number of games.

In addition, the upper limit of the advantageous section is set in the playable game section, and when the predetermined upper limit number of games, for example, 1500 games, is consumed after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, the upper limit of the advantageous section. When the number of games has been reached, the advantageous section is shifted to the non-favorable section.
Further, in the present embodiment, after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, even before the predetermined upper limit number of games (1500 games) is consumed (before reaching the upper limit number of advantageous sections), When a predetermined predetermined number of balls (for example, so-called MY2400 cards) is acquired, even if the upper limit number of games is not exhausted, the advantage zone is shifted to the non-advantage zone.

(Transmission means 270)
The transmission means 270 is for transmitting a signal to the sub-control board 300.

(Sub control board 300)
As shown in FIG. 4, the sub-control board 300 includes a receiving unit 310 and an effect control unit 320. Details of each means will be described later.

With the above configuration, the sub control board 300 receives a signal from the main control board 200 and performs an effect accompanying the progress of the game.
Specifically, the sub-control board 300 outputs data defining the turning on / off of the LED to an LED driving circuit (not shown) for driving the effect lamp 78, and outputs a sound from the speaker 72. Video data to be output to a liquid crystal control board (not shown) for driving the display device 84, or to output data defining audio to be output to an audio output circuit (not shown) for output Or output data that specifies

(Receiving means 310)
The receiving unit 310 receives a signal from the transmitting unit 270.

(Production control means 320)
The production control means 320 controls the production of the gaming machine 10 according to the gaming state shown in FIG. 12 and the advantageous section state shown in FIG.

  Further, when the production control means 320 receives a command for notifying the pressing order of the stop switch 50 from the advantageous section control means 260 of the main control board 200 during the advantageous section shown in FIG. It is possible to execute an effect for informing the user.

  Specifically, on the screen of the display device 84 corresponding to the position of each stop switch 50 (specifically, the position of the rotary reel 62 corresponding to each stop switch 50), a plurality of images or videos (for example, “1” "2" "3") is displayed to notify the pressing order. Thereafter, each time the stop switch 50 is operated, the portion corresponding to the position of the operated stop switch 50 is erased (or changed to an image indicating no order).

(Description of gaming state using FIG. 12)
Next, the gaming state will be described with reference to FIG.
The gaming state is managed by the main control board 200. As shown in FIG. 12, the gaming state is roughly divided into a normal gaming state, a bonus internal medium state, and a bonus gaming state.

(Normal gaming state)
The normal gaming state (NOM) is controlled by the normal gaming state control means 251.
The probability of winning the replay combination in the normal gaming state is set to normal (1 / 7.3).
When a bonus transition combination is won by a combination lottery in the normal gaming state and the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus transition combination is not stopped and displayed on the active line 86, the transition from the normal gaming state to the internal bonus state is made and the stop When it is displayed, it shifts to the bonus game state.

(Bonus internal state)
The bonus internal intermediate state is controlled by the bonus internal intermediate state control means 252. In the normal gaming state, the bonus transition combinations “CBB1” to “CBB6” (see FIG. 5) are won and the bonus transition combinations “CBB1” to “CBB1” The process proceeds when the symbol combination corresponding to “CBB6” is not stopped and displayed on the active line 86.

Specifically, when winning the bonus transition combination “CBB1”, it is “CBB1F”, when winning the bonus transition combination “CBB2”, it is “CRBB2F”, and when winning the bonus transition combination “CBB3”, it is “CBB3F” "CBB4F" when winning the bonus transition role "CBB4", "CBB5F" when winning the bonus transition role "CBB5", and "CBB6F" when winning the bonus transition role "CBB6" , Migrate each.
The winning probability for the replay role in the bonus internal state is set higher than that in the normal game state.

Further, a plurality of bonus internal / intermediate states are provided corresponding to each of the plurality of bonus game states.
Specifically, the bonus gaming state “CBB1F” can be shifted to the bonus gaming state “CBB1”, the bonus gaming state “CBB2F” can be shifted to the bonus gaming state “CBB2”, and the bonus gaming state “CBB3F”. Can be shifted to the bonus gaming state “CBB3”, the bonus gaming state “CBB4F” can be shifted to the bonus gaming state “CBB4”, and the bonus gaming state “CBB5F” can be shifted to the bonus gaming state “CBB5”. Transition is possible, and the bonus gaming state “CBB6F” can be transitioned to the bonus gaming state “CBB6”.

In addition, when the bonus lottery result is “losing”, the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus transition combination can be stopped on the active line 86 and the symbol combination corresponding to the bonus transition combination is valid. When the stop display is made on the line 86, it is set to shift to the corresponding bonus game state.
This is because, when another overlapping winning mode is won, the reel control means 220 gives priority to pull-in control and replay over the symbol 61 corresponding to the bonus transition combinations “CBB1” to “CBB6”. This is because the symbol combinations of the bonus transition combinations “CBB1” to “CBB6” are not stopped and displayed on the active line 86.

Therefore, the higher the winning probability of “losing” in the bonus internal state, the easier it is to shift from the bonus internal state to the bonus gaming state.
Therefore, according to the winning probability of “losing” in the bonus internal state, it is possible to stay in the bonus internal state for a long period of time, and to play games such as the AT state in the bonus internal state, and early in the bonus internal state It is also possible to realize a gameability that shifts to a bonus game state and gives an opportunity to shift to another bonus internal medium state.

Even if it is set so that the player can not win the bonus transition combination by operating the stop switch 50 of the player by creating a position where the symbol 61 corresponding to the bonus transition combination on the rotating reel 62 cannot be drawn. good.
In this way, when the bonus internal state during the stay is more advantageous than the other bonus internal state (for example, when staying in “CBB6F”), the player is staying within the bonus internal state. If it is desired to continue the state, it is possible to continue the internal bonus state by removing the bonus transition combination.

Further, by arranging the symbol 61 corresponding to the bonus transition combination on the rotary reel 62 at a position where it can be withdrawn (for example, at an interval of 5 frames), the bonus transition combination is possible regardless of the operation mode of the player's stop switch 50. May be set to win.
And, after the bonus game state ends, the possibility of shifting to the bonus internal medium state different from the previous time is guaranteed by giving an opportunity to shift to the bonus internal medium state again, and the bonus internal medium state is frequently switched. As a result, it is possible to produce a variety of game characteristics in which the player's advantage changes depending on the internal bonus state to be transferred.

The prescribed number of normal game state and bonus internal medium state is 2 or 3, and bonus transition roles “CBB1” to “CBB6” are set to be able to win and win in the normal game state with 2 bets, When the number of bets in the bonus internal state is 3, the reel control means 220 prevents the corresponding symbol combination from being stopped and displayed on the active line 86, so that the bonus transition role is not won and the bonus from the bonus internal state is set. You may set so that it may not shift to a gaming state.
In addition, in the bonus internal state, by making sure that the duplicate winning mode “losing” is not subject to the role lottery with two bets, it is always possible to win other overlapping winning modes. The transitional role may not be awarded.

In addition, in the internal bonus state, regardless of the number of bets, by making sure that the duplicate winning mode “losing” is not subject to the role lottery, by making sure that other overlapping winning modes are won, The bonus transfer role may not be awarded.
In this case, the reel control means 220 performs the pull-in control in preference to the small combination or replay over the symbols 61 corresponding to the bonus transition combinations “CBB1” to “CBB6” (so-called small combination priority control, Replay priority control), since the symbol combination of bonus transition roles “CBB1” to “CBB6” is not stopped and displayed on the active line 86, when the bonus transition is temporarily made, the game transitions to another gaming state. You may set so that it does not do.

It is also possible for the manager of the game store where the gaming machine 10 is installed to shift to the desired bonus internal state before the player plays.
That is, as described above, the transition probability to the AT state depending on the bonus internal state (the winning probability of the duplicate winning mode that triggers the AT transition lottery), the expectation level of the medal payout (15 winning and 1 winning) If the bonus internal medium state is used as a pseudo set value and a game is to be played in the bonus internal medium state “CBB1F”, the game is played in advance until winning the bonus transition role “CBB1”. If the game is to be progressed and it is desired to play the game in the bonus internal state “CBB6F”, it is possible to advance the game in advance until the bonus transition combination “CBB6” is won.
In this case, it is desirable that the bonus transition role is not won in the bonus internal state, and it is desirable not to shift from the bonus internal state to the bonus game state. You may make it shift to a bonus game state.

If the manager of the game store in which the gaming machine 10 is installed wins the bonus transition role in the other bonus internal state before shifting to the desired bonus internal state, the first clear described above is performed, By repeating the game and the first clear until the winning bonus winning combination in the desired bonus internal state is won, it is possible to shift to the desired bonus internal state.
Further, when it is not necessary to clear the bonus internal state, it is also possible to clear information on the AT state other than the bonus internal state by performing the second clear described above.

(Bonus game state)
The bonus gaming state is controlled by the bonus gaming state control means 253, and in this embodiment, the bonus transition combinations “CBB1” to “CBB6” (see FIG. 5) are won and the bonus transition combinations “CBB1” to “CBB6” are won. When the symbol combination corresponding to “” is stopped on the active line 86, the process proceeds.
The winning probability for the replay combination in the bonus game state is set to “0”.

  In this embodiment, the bonus game state is “CBB1” which can be transferred when winning the bonus transfer combination “CBB1”, “CBB2” which can be transferred when winning the bonus transfer combination “CBB2”, and bonus transfer “CBB3” that can be transferred when winning the combination “CBB3”, “CBB4” that can be transferred when winning the bonus transferring combination “CBB4”, and “CBB5” that can be transferred when winning the bonus transferring combination “CBB5” “CBB5” is provided with “CBB6” that can be transferred when the bonus transfer combination “CBB6” is won.

Here, in the present embodiment, “CBB” is only a so-called two-sheet bet with a prescribed number of only two, and a so-called challenge bonus (CB) is continuously operated, and ends with the payout of more than 28 medals. .
Then, after the “CBB” is completed, the state shifts to a normal gaming state (NOM).

  Note that in the CB as the second type special combination in the “CBB”, a small combination is established (winning) regardless of the lottery. In addition, in other games other than the CB, for example, in the bonus non-winning state, all reels 62 must be stopped within 190 ms from the stop operation timing of the stop switch 50, whereas in the CB, Only the left rotating reel 64 is set to stop within 75 ms from the stop operation timing of the stop switch 50. Note that the time limit for the intermediate rotation reel 66 and the right rotation reel 68 is set within 190 ms from the stop operation timing, as in other games.

In addition, the number of bonus game states is not limited to six “CBB1” to “CBB6”, but may be set as a pseudo set value that is desired to have a stage of performance and advantage. good.
That is, as the number of bonus game states is increased, the corresponding bonus internal / medium state has multiple stages of performance and advantage, resulting in more complex game play.

(Explanation of advantageous section using FIG. 13)
As shown in FIG. 13, when a winning push combination is won when the stop switch 50 is operated in a predetermined push order by a lottery drawing, the push order cannot be notified to the player. It is possible to move from `` non-advantageous section '' and `` non-advantageous section '', and when winning the push order that becomes a prize when the stop switch 50 is operated in a predetermined push order by the role lottery, There is an “advantageous section” that can inform the player of the pressing order.

The “non-favorable section” is a section excluding the “advantageous section”.
In this embodiment, when a winning combination determined in advance is selected from “non-advantageous section” to “advantageous section”, an advantageous section transition lottery from “non-advantageous section” to “advantageous section” is performed. Then, the winning section shift lottery is won to win the transition.

In the present embodiment, the winning probability of the advantageous section transition lottery is set to a high probability, and is set to shift to the advantageous section in a number of non-favorable section games.
In addition, the “non-advantageous section” to the “advantageous section” is not limited to the case where a transition is made by winning an advantageous section transition lottery performed when a predetermined role is won by a role lottery. If a winning combination is won in advance, it may be possible to move to the advantageous section without performing the advantageous section transition lottery.

Further, in the present embodiment, the section notification lamp 90 is set to be lit after the so-called third stop of the game won in a predetermined role that triggers the transition to the advantageous section.
The lighting of the section notification lamp 90 is not limited to the above-described case, and in other cases, for example, the section notification lamp 90 may be turned on when shifting to an AT state described later.

(Advantageous section)
The “favorable section” is an example of an advantageous state, and is a section that is more advantageous to the player than the “non-advantageous section”, and includes an “advantageous section normal state” and an “AT state”.

  In addition, the advantageous section may be provided with an added state in which a lottery is selected as to whether or not to add the number of games in the AT state.

Here, the section that is advantageous to the player is, for example, in the non-favorable section, the winning combination that is won when the stop switch 50 is operated in the predetermined pressing order by the combination lottery is won. Even if it is a case, it is possible to inform the player of the pushing order from the state where it became impossible, or because the AT state that is not executed in the non-favorable section is executed, etc. It is a section that is advantageous to the elderly.
Therefore, it is not necessary to be advantageous to the player throughout the “advantageous section”, and it may be not advantageous to the player in part of the “advantageous section”.

Further, after the transition from the non-advantageous section to the advantageous section, the upper limit of the game section in which the advantageous section can be played, in this embodiment, when the predetermined upper limit number of games, for example, 1500 games is consumed, the upper limit of the advantageous section When the number of games has been reached, the advantageous section is shifted to the non-favorable section.
Therefore, the main control board 200 includes an upper limit game number counter, and counts the number of digested games after the transition to the advantageous section in order to determine whether or not the predetermined upper limit game number (1500 games) is reached.

In addition, after the transition from the non-advantageous zone to the advantageous zone, even before the predetermined upper limit number of games (1500 games) is consumed (before reaching the upper limit game number of the advantageous zone), medals inserted in the advantageous zone When the difference between the number of medals and the number of paid-out medals reaches the predetermined number (upper limit difference), this is used as an opportunity to start from the advantageous section even before the upper limit number of games is exhausted. Transition to non-favorable section.
Here, the difference between the number of medals inserted in the advantageous section and the number of paid-out medals is, for example, the state where the medal is reduced most in the advantageous section and the state where the medal is increased most in the advantageous section. The number obtained by the difference is the so-called MY.
Therefore, the main control board 200 counts the number of inserted sheets and the number of paid-out sheets after shifting to the advantageous section in order to determine whether or not a predetermined number of difference sheets (so-called MY2400 sheets) is reached.

(Advantageous section normal state)
The advantageous section normal state is a state excluding a special state such as an “AT state” in the “favorable section”.
The advantageous zone normal state is a state in which the non-favorable zone non-favorable zone normal state is continued, and the production control means 320 performs an effect similar to the non-favorable zone normal state. That is, the difference between the normal state of the non-advantageous section and the normal state of the advantageous area is a difference between the non-advantageous section and the "advantageous section".
The advantageous section normal state is an example of the “normal section” in the claims.

(AT state)
The “AT state” is an example of an advantageous state, and is a state that is more advantageous for the player than the normal state of the advantageous section.
When the “AT state” is entered, a game (AT) in which the push order of the winning combination is notified (push order navigation) is started as a notification effect for assisting the winning of the predetermined combination, and the notified press By operating the stop switch 50 in order, the combination of symbols of the winning small combination and replaying combination can be stopped and displayed. For this reason, a predetermined number of medals corresponding to the established small combination are paid out.

  In the present embodiment, when winning a duplicate winning mode predetermined for each bonus internal state, “15 winnings” will be won regardless of the operation mode of the stop switch 50, so that the gaming state is a bonus. If the internal middle state is in the AT state and the advantageous section is in the AT state, the “winner_15” determined for each bonus internal middle state will win even if the push order notification is not followed. When winning other than the pre-determined duplicate winning mode for each internal state, it is possible to win “winning_15” by following the notification of the pressing order.

The “AT state” is a state in which a transition is made by winning the AT transition lottery described above.
Further, in the “AT state”, the number of games whose counting is started after the transition from the non-advantageous zone to the advantageous zone reaches the number of games (666 games, etc.) determined by the above-described lottery of the ceiling games (so-called “game”). It is designed to make a transition depending on the ceiling.
Then, after the “AT state” is completed, the non-advantage section transitions to the normal state.

  Note that the “advantageous section” is not limited to the normal condition or AT state of the advantageous section, but has a high probability of being able to move to the precursor state where the precursor effect suggesting the transition to the AT state or the like is executed, or to the AT state. You may provide states, such as an additional specialization state which can add the game section of a zone state and an AT state.

(Description of basic flow of game using FIG. 14)
Based on the flowchart shown in FIG. 14, a general game control process executed by the main control board 200 for each game will be described.

  In step S10, the main control board 200 determines whether or not the start switch 40 has been operated. If it is determined that the start switch 40 has been operated, the main control board 200 makes it impossible to set the number of bets. Thereafter, the process proceeds to next Step S11. On the other hand, if it is determined that the start switch 40 has not been operated, step S10 is performed again.

  Note that the betting number setting process is performed as a premise of this step S10. In this betting number setting process, it is determined whether or not a prescribed betting number is set as the betting number. Specifically, the main control board 200 determines whether or not the number of medals set as the number of bets on the game has reached a specified number of bets (three).

  In step S11, the role lottery means 210 performs a role lottery process. At this time, the result of the role lottery is transmitted from the main control board 200 to the sub control board 300. When the combination lottery process ends, the process proceeds to the next step S12.

  In step S12, rotation variation processing of the rotating reel 62 in the reel unit 60 is performed. After the rotation reel 62 reaches a predetermined rotation speed, when the stop switch 50 corresponding to the rotation reel 62 being rotated is operated by the main control board 200, the reel control means 220 causes the rotation of each rotation reel 62. The rotation is stopped. The pressing order corresponding to the winning combination of the stop switch 50 (left stop switch L, middle stop switch C, right stop switch R) at this time is stored in a predetermined storage area formed on the main control board 200, and It is read in the subsequent processing.

Further, after all stop operations are completed, the rotation stop information of all the rotation reels 62 is transmitted from the transmission means 270 of the main control board 200 to the reception means 310 of the sub control board 300. Then, when the rotation variation process for all the rotary reels 62 is completed, the process proceeds to the next step S13.
In step S13, the stop symbol determination means 230 performs a determination process such as a winning as to whether or not a combination of symbols 61 of a predetermined role is aligned with a combination of symbols 61 on the active line 86. Here, the data of the determination result of the determination process such as winning is transmitted from the main control board 200 to the sub-control board 300. When the determination process ends, the process proceeds to the next step S14.

  In step S14, the payout control means 240 performs a payout process corresponding to the determination result of the stop symbol determining means 230. Note that if the result of the determination is that payout is not required, payout processing is not performed. Then, the process ends.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications other than those described above can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
For example, as described above, the case where there are three rotating reels 62 has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and there may be other than three, for example, four.

  In the above-described embodiment, the overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A_1” to “winning_RC_B_1” are set to “AT role group 1”, and the overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A_2” to “winning_RC_B_2” are set to “AT role group 2”. Duplicate winning modes “winning_LC_A_3” to “winning_RC_B_3” are assigned to “AT role group 3”, overlapping winning modes “winning_LC_A_4” to “winning_RC_B_4” are assigned to “AT role group 4”, and double winning mode “winning_LC_A_5” is selected. ~ "Winning_RC_B_5" is divided into "AT role group 5", and the duplicate winning modes "Winning_LC_A_6" to "Winning_RC_B_6" are divided into "AT role group 6". Duplicate winning modes categorized into group 1 “winning_LC_A_1” to “winning_RC_B_1” The duplicate winning mode 1 is configured so that all the included roles are won in duplicate, and all of the roles included in the overlapping winning mode “winning_LC_A_2” to “winning_RC_B_2” divided into AT role group 2 are duplicated. The duplicate winning mode 2 is configured so that all of the roles included in the overlapping winning mode “winning_LC_A_3” to “winning_RC_B_3” divided into the AT role group 3 are won in a duplicated manner. Overlapping winning aspects that are configured and categorized into AT role group 4 “Winning_LC_A_4” to “Winning_RC_B_4” are configured so that all the winnings included in the winning combination “RC_B_4” are duplicated and are divided into AT role group 5 Duplicate winners are selected so that all the roles included in “Winner_LC_A_5” to “Winner_RC_B_5” are won in duplicate. In the same manner, the duplicate winning mode 6 may be configured so that all of the winnings included in the “winning_LC_A_6” to “winning_RC_B_6” that are divided into the AT role group 6 are won in duplicate. good.

In other words, in the above-described embodiment, the AT combination group 1 to the AT combination group 6 are not used as the duplicate winning aspect to be the combination lottery, but in the present modification, the AT combination group 1 to the AT combination group 6 are conceived. Duplicate winning mode 1 to overlapping winning mode 6 will be treated as a role lottery target.
In this case, each of the multiple winning modes 1 to 6 includes six selections of push order (since there are three reels, the push switch pattern of the stop switch 50 has six options). Therefore, if you win one of the duplicate winning modes 1 to 6, you must be able to win the “15 winning prizes” included in the duplicate winning mode regardless of the order of pressing the stop switch 50. It becomes.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, as the operation mode of the stop switch 50, so-called six options in which a symbol combination corresponding to a case where both the first stop and the second stop are correct are stopped and displayed on the active line 86 are displayed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and if the first stop is correct, the corresponding symbol combination may be stopped and displayed on the active line 86. good.

In the embodiment described above, “CBB” is provided as the bonus game state, but the present invention is not limited to this, and “RB” (so-called regular bonus), “RBB” (so-called big bonus), and “CB” (so-called Challenge bonus).
Furthermore, “CBB” is provided as a bonus game state, but in addition to the bonus game state “CBB”, other bonus game states (“RB” (so-called regular bonus) and “RBB” (so-called big bonus)) are provided. May be.

As described above, the present invention has the following effects.
In the present invention, the overlapping winning mode to which “winning_15” to win for each bonus internal / medium state changes, and stays in the bonus internal / medium state in which “winning_15” belonging to the overlapping winning mode having the highest winning probability wins. This is advantageous for the player, and the advantage for the player can be changed for each internal bonus state.
This makes it possible to vary the number of game values given to a player by changing the winning combination for each bonus internal / medium state by reel control without changing the lottery probability of the winning lottery. Machine 10 can be provided.
Further, it is possible to change the probability of winning combination depending on the internal bonus state by reel control even if the set value is the same without changing the set value of the winning lottery.
Further, the number of set values for the lottery drawing is not limited to a case where a plurality of set values are provided, and may be one.

In addition, the present invention can create an advantageous bonus internal medium state and an unfavorable bonus internal intermediate state for the advantageous section by changing the probability that the advantageous player who works favorably for the advantageous section wins for each bonus internal medium state. In addition, it is possible to provide the gaming machine 10 that can vary the number of game values given to the player according to the bonus internal / intermediate state.
Further, it is possible to change the probability of winning combination depending on the internal bonus state by reel control even if the set value is the same without changing the set value of the winning lottery.
Further, the number of set values for the lottery drawing is not limited to a case where a plurality of set values are provided, and may be one.

Furthermore, the present invention can further provide a gaming machine 10 that can prevent a transition from a bonus internal medium state to a bonus gaming state.
And, since the number of game values to be paid out to the player differs depending on the winning combination for each bonus internal state, multiple stages related to the game value payout for the number of bonus internal state It can be provided.

Furthermore, the present invention can further provide a gaming machine 10 that can avoid the transition of the player who does not want to shift from the bonus internal medium state to the bonus gaming state by his / her own intention.
In this way, when the player desires to continue the bonus internal state during the stay, the bonus internal state can be continued by removing the bonus transition combination.

Furthermore, the present invention can further provide a gaming machine 10 capable of shifting from the bonus internal state to the bonus game state.
And, after the bonus game state ends, the possibility of shifting to the bonus internal medium state different from the previous time is guaranteed by giving an opportunity to shift to the bonus internal medium state again, and the bonus internal medium state is frequently switched. As a result, it is possible to produce a variety of game characteristics in which the player's advantage changes depending on the internal bonus state to be transferred.

  In addition, the present invention further provides a gaming machine 10 that can cope with both the case where it is desired to clear information relating to the progress of all the games and the case where information relating to the bonus internal state is not desired to be cleared. be able to.
