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

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

  In the game area 902, a display device 10, a start winning opening 904, a big winning opening 906, an out opening, and the like are provided. The display area 11 of the display device 10 is an area that is visible through an opening formed in the game board 90. In addition, the game area 902 is provided with a plurality of game nails as obstacles that change the flow-down mode of the game balls when the flow-down game balls collide. The game ball flowing down the game area 902 changes into various modes depending on the condition when it collides with the game nail.

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

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

  The jackpot lottery is executed by a winning determination means provided on a control board (not shown) triggered by winning a game ball in the start winning opening 904 (a plurality of such starting winning openings may be provided). Specifically, when a game ball is won at the start winning opening 904, a numerical value (win / fail judgment information) is acquired from a random number source, and if the numerical value is the same as a predetermined jackpot value, the jackpot If they are different, they will be out of sync. In the present embodiment, notification of the determination result is started in the order in which the numerical values are acquired (so-called fluctuation is started), but there is still determination information about whether the determination result is not yet completed. In this case, the newly acquired determination information is stored as storage information in storage means provided on a control board (not shown). The fact that the hold information is stored in the storage means is displayed as a hold image (hold symbol) 80 (see FIG. 2).

  In the present embodiment, the notification effect for notifying the result of the determination as the hold image 80 is started (the change of the identification symbol 70 (identification symbol group 70g) indicating the result of the determination is started). The notification of the result is not completed (the change hold image 81 (so-called “change change hold”) corresponding to the change in the identification symbol 70 (identification symbol group 70g in a manner indicating the determination result) is not displayed. And the pre-change reserved image 82 corresponding to the image in which the notification effect for notifying the determination result is not started (the identification symbol 70 (identification symbol group 70g) indicating the determination result is not started). Is displayed (see FIG. 2). An upper limit is set for the maximum storage number of the hold information corresponding to the pre-change hold image 82. In the present embodiment, the maximum stored number of the hold information (win / no-go determination information) obtained by winning at the start winning opening 904 (so-called “Special Figure 1”) is four.

  In the present embodiment, in the same manner as a known gaming machine, the player is notified of the success / failure determination result by a combination of identification symbols 70 (see FIG. 2) displayed in the display area 11 of the display device 10. Specifically, an identification symbol group 70g including a plurality of types of identification symbols 70 (left identification symbol group 70gL, middle identification symbol group 70gC, right identification symbol group 70gR) starts to change, and finally each identification symbol group 70g. The one identifying symbol 70 is selected and stopped. In the case where the jackpot is won, the combination of the identification symbols 70 selected and stopped from each of the identification symbol groups 70g is a predetermined combination (for example, a set of three identical identification symbols 70). If it is out of place, it becomes a combination other than that (other than the combination that is a big hit). In each figure, only “numbers (characters)” constituting the identification symbol 70 are shown, but a symbol in which the numerals and characters are combined can be set as the identification symbol 70.

2) First image displacement effect Various effects are executed as notification effects for notifying the result of the determination of the success / failure (effects from the start of the variation of the identification symbol 70 to the stop with the combination indicating the result of the determination of the correctness / failure). In the present embodiment, as a kind of the effect, a first image displacement effect (a second image displacement effect and a third image displacement effect, which will be described later, is formally added with “first”. In general, it is also possible to execute a “shake effect” or the like. That is, the first image displacement effect can be generated as a part of a series of effects for notifying the target determination result. Hereinafter, the first image displacement effect will be described in detail. Unless otherwise specified, the term “image” (reference image 20 or the like) in the following description includes both a still image and a moving image.

  The basic aspect of the first image displacement effect is that the reference image is displayed on the display area 11 from the first state (the state shown in FIG. 3A) in which the reference image 20 is displayed on the display area 11 of the display device 10. It is displaced to the 2nd state (state shown in Drawing 3 (b)) displayed as if 20 shifted. The reference image 20 is an image displayed in the display area 11 in the first state. In the present embodiment, an image displayed in the entire display area 11 in the first state is set as the reference image 20. However, only a part of the image displayed in the display area 11 in the first state may be displaced as the reference image 20. The reference image 20 may be either a still image or a moving image, but the content of the image represented by the reference image 20 from the first state to the second state is maintained in an aspect that can be identified by the player (however, as will be described later) And the portion representing the identification symbol 70 is excluded).

  Various displacement modes of the reference image 20 relative to the display area 11 can be considered. In the present embodiment, a display (three-dimensionally displaced) is as if the reference image 20 was displaced so as to be inclined with respect to a planar direction (referred to as a direction along the display area 11 of the display device 10; the same applies hereinafter). Display). More specifically, in the present embodiment, a display as if the reference image 20 has been rotated is displayed such that the left edge of the reference image 20 faces the back side and the right edge of the reference image 20 faces the near side. (See FIGS. 3A and 3B). However, this displacement mode is merely an example. A display as if the reference image 20 was displaced along the plane direction (in any direction, up, down, left, or right) (display as if it was displaced two-dimensionally) may be made. A display may be made as if 20 has been displaced to the back (back). Moreover, it is good also as an aspect (for example, the aspect which the reference image 20 shakes) as if the displacement amount of the reference image 20 changes with progress of time. Moreover, it is good also as an aspect (for example, the aspect in which the outline of the reference image 20 is distorted) in which the outline shape of the reference image 20 changes. Further, a mode in which a part of the reference image 20 is located outside the display area 11 due to the displacement of the reference image 20 (a mode in which a part is completely cut off) may be used. Moreover, it is good also as an effect form in which the reference image 20 returns to the original again when the first image displacement effect is completed, or the reference image 20 does not return to the original state, and a transition to a state in which a completely different image is displayed. It is good also as a production form.

  Further, in the second state of the first image displacement effect, a frame image 30 along the outer edge of the reference image 20 is displayed (see FIG. 3B). The frame image 30 indicates a portion corresponding to the outer edge of the display area 11 in the first state. In the present embodiment, the frame image 30 is not displayed in the first state. That is, since the first image displacement effect is an effect that is displayed as if the reference image 20 is shifted with respect to the display area 11, the frame image 30 is displayed in the second state in order to express the shift. . The player receives the impression that the outer edge of the display area 11 in the first state has shifted to the position displayed as the frame image 30 in the second state. Since the display area 11 has a roughly rectangular shape when viewed roughly, if the reference image 20 is a first image displacement effect that is displaced three-dimensionally as in the present embodiment, the frame image 30 in the second state. Is a mode (a substantially parallelogram shape in a plan view) that appears to have a square shape in a three-dimensional expression. In the present embodiment, the shape of the frame image 30 gradually changes from the outer edge of the display area 11 from the first state to the second state, and finally arrives at a mode as illustrated. The frame image 30 may not be displayed at all. In such a configuration, the “frame image 30” includes an image (background image 22 described later in the present embodiment) that is displayed as if it is shifted with respect to the display area 11 and a boundary between other parts. Shall be.

  The reference image 20 includes an identification symbol 70. Specifically, the reference image 20 includes at least an identification symbol 70 and a background image 22 displayed as its background (see FIG. 3A). If the image layer displaying the identification symbol 70 and the image layer displaying the background image 22 are different layers, and the former layer is set before the latter layer, the background image is used as the background of the identification symbol 70. A mode in which 22 is displayed can be constructed. Hereinafter, a portion representing the identification symbol 70 (three identification symbols 70) in the reference image 20 is referred to as a specific image 21. When the state transitions from the first state to the second state, at least a portion corresponding to the background image 22 is displayed as if it is three-dimensionally displaced with respect to the display area 11, and around the background image 22. A frame image 30 is displayed. As a result of such a change, the player has the impression that the image displayed in the first state is shifted with respect to the display area 11.

  Here, in the second state, the relative relationship between the specific image 21 and the frame image 30 is different from the relative relationship between the specific image 21 and the outer edge of the display region 11 in the first state. That is, it is different from the display mode (virtual display mode) in the second state when it is assumed that the entire reference image 20 including the specific image 21 displayed in the first state is displaced with respect to the display area 11 as it is. This means that the relative relationship between the specific image 21 that can be seen and the frame image 30 is assumed.

  In the first state, the specific image 21 is in the display area 11 (see FIG. 3A). That is, the entire specific image 21 is in a state positioned on the inner side of the outer edge of the display area 11. On the other hand, in the state in which the frame image 30 that is a portion corresponding to the outer edge of the display area 11 in the first state is displayed in the display area 11 from the first state to the second state, the specific image is displayed in the present embodiment. A part of 21 is displayed so as to protrude from the frame image 30 (see FIG. 3B). That is, when the frame image 30 is displayed in order to show a mode in which the background image 22 is displaced three-dimensionally with respect to the display region 11 by transitioning from the first state to the second state, The relative positional relationship between the frame image 30 and the specific image 21 (identification symbol 70) is not maintained, and the specific image 21 protrudes from the frame image 30. The area outside the frame image 30 in the second state is an area generated by the displacement of the reference image 20 with respect to the display area 11 (hereinafter also referred to as an outer area 11s), and the outer area 11s. In this manner, a part of the specific image 21 is displayed.

  In the present embodiment, the state in which the identification symbol 70 fluctuates is maintained through the first image displacement effect (even if the first state is changed to the second state). At least when the first image displacement effect is executed, the variation pattern of the identification symbol 70 is such that the type of the identification symbol 70 is rotated every time the identification symbol 70 constituting each identification symbol group 70g rotates at a predetermined position. It is set as the aspect which changes. Such an identification symbol 70 is displayed as the specific image 21 so as to fluctuate (rotate) in a state of protruding from the frame image 30 in the second state (see FIG. 3B). In the present embodiment, a part of the left identification symbol 70 (left identification symbol group 70 gL) and the right identification symbol 70 (right identification symbol group 70 gR) are in a state of protruding from the frame image 30.

  In the present embodiment, the size of the specific image 21 relative to the frame image 30 in the second state is larger than the size of the specific image 21 relative to the outer edge of the display region 11 in the first state. By setting, at least a part of the specific image 21 is displayed so as to protrude from the frame image 30 in the second state. In other words, the amount of change of the specific image 21 from the first state to the second state is smaller than the amount of change of the outer edge of the display area 11 in the first state as the frame image 30 in the second state. In the second state, it can be said that a part of the specific image 21 protrudes from the frame image 30.

  Thereafter (after the second state), the frame image 30 is gradually enlarged (approaching the outer edge of the display area 11), and finally the frame image 30 is not displayed. In other words, the display as if the frame image 30 has returned to the “outer edge of the display area 11” is performed, and the state shown as if the image has shifted with respect to the display area 11 ends. At the same time, the entire specific image 21 (identification symbol 70) is shifted to a state displayed in the display area 11. In the present embodiment, the variation of the identification symbol 70 stops at this time. That is, it is controlled so that the combination of the identification symbols 70 indicating the determination result is displayed substantially simultaneously with the end of the first image displacement effect and the state where the frame image 30 is not displayed. In other words, the first image displacement effect in the present embodiment is started immediately before the combination of the identification symbols 70 indicating the determination result of the success / failure determination, and the combination (hit or jackpot) is almost simultaneously with the end of the first image displacement effect. A combination indicating a deviation) is shown (see FIGS. 3C-1 and 3C-2).

  Note that the combination of the identification symbols 70 indicating the result of the determination of success / failure after the first image displacement effect is not shown, but a so-called chance (an event advantageous to the player occurs or an advantage occurs after the first image displacement effect ends) It is good also as a production | presentation aspect whether the combination which shows that the probability that a certain event generate | occur | produces increased is shown. Further, each identification symbol 70 shown after the end of the image displacement effect is a pseudo stop (an aspect in which each identification symbol 70 does not completely stop but appears to be stopped by the player. For example, each identification symbol 70 slightly shakes. It is good also as what is in the state which was made into the state which is being).

  As described above, in the first image displacement effect in the present embodiment, in order to give the player the impression that the reference image 20 is displaced with respect to the display area 11, the “display in the first state” is displayed in the second state. A frame image 30 that is a portion corresponding to the “outer edge of the region 11” is displayed. On the premise of such a configuration, the specific image 21 that is entirely displayed inside the outer edge of the display area 11 in the first state is displayed so that a part thereof protrudes in the second state. In this way, as a result of the “image shift” with respect to the display area 11, a part of the image (specific image 21) displayed in the first state is more than the display area 11 (frame image 30). It can be set as the interesting production aspect which gives the player the impression that it became large.

  Hereinafter, specific examples in which the first image displacement effect in the above embodiment is improved, embodied, or modified will be described. As far as possible, a configuration in which a plurality of techniques described using the following specific examples are combined may be applied.

First Specific Example In the first image displacement effect in the above-described embodiment, it has been described that the identification symbol 70 indicating the determination result is set as the specific image 21, but other images are set as the specific image 21. It is also possible. Any image may be set as the specific image 21 as long as the image constitutes the reference image 20 displayed in the first state.

  For example, it is assumed that a certain character displayed in the first state is set as the specific image 21 and the background image 22 is displayed as the background (see FIG. 4A). When transitioning to the second state, it is assumed that a display is made as if part of the image of the character protrudes from the frame image 30 (the image around the background image 22) (see FIG. 4B). In this way, the character that was smaller than the display area 11 in the first state (the whole was displayed in the display area 11) transitions to the second state, so that the display area 11 (frame image 30). It is possible to give the player an impression that it has become larger.

Second Specific Example In the above-described embodiment, it has been described that a part of the specific image 21 is displayed outside the frame image 30 when the state is shifted to the second state. May be displayed on the outside of the frame image 30. In other words, the entire specific image 21 is displayed in the outer area 11s generated by displaying the reference image 20 as if it is displaced with respect to the display area 11 (FIG. 5B). )reference).

  By doing in this way, it is possible to give the player an impression as if the specific image 21 has moved out of the display area 11. That is, the frame image 30 in the second state can be said to be a virtual representation of the outer edge of the display area 11, so that the specific image 21 is displayed on the outside of the frame image 30 in the first state. It is possible to give an impression as if the specific image 21 displayed in the display area 11 has moved to the outside of the display area 11 by transitioning to the second state.

○ Third Specific Example In the above embodiment, it has been described that when the state is shifted to the second state, a display in which a part of the specific image 21 protrudes outside the frame image 30 is performed. May be displayed inside the frame image 30. If the relative relationship between the specific image 21 in the first state and the outer edge of the display area 11 and the relative relationship between the frame image 30 of the specific image 21 in the second state appear to be different to the player Good.

  For example, the closeness (distance of distance) between the specific image 21 and the frame image 30 in the second state, rather than the closeness (distance) of the specific image 21 and the outer edge of the display area 11 in the first state (see FIG. 6A). ) (See FIG. 6 (b)) so as to appear smaller, and by giving the player an impression that the specific image 21 has become larger by shifting from the first state to the second state. Is possible.

Fourth Fourth Example In the configuration in which the identification symbol 70 is set as the specific image 21, it is assumed that the first image displacement effect is generated as an effect of changing the combination mode of the identification symbol 70. For example, in the first state, it is assumed that the variation of each identification symbol group 70g is pseudo-stopped and the identification symbol 70 is indicated by a certain combination (prior combination) (see FIG. 7A). After that, the state transitions to the second state, and a part of the identification symbol 70 that is the specific image 21 is in a state of protruding from the frame image 30, and each identification symbol group 70g starts to change again (FIG. 7B). reference). Then, display is performed such that the frame image 30 is gradually enlarged (approaching the outer edge of the display area 11), and finally the frame image 30 is not displayed. Setting that the combination (post-combination) of the identification symbols 70 displayed at this time can be changed from the previous combination (it may be always changed or may be changed or may not be changed) (See FIG. 7C).

  The change from the pre-combination to the post-combination is preferably advantageous for the player. In other words, the post-combination may indicate that an event that is advantageous to the player occurs or that the probability that an advantageous event occurs is increased. As an example, there is a change from a pre-combination that shows a failure determination result to a post-combination that shows a jackpot (change from FIG. 7 (a) to FIG. 7 (c)). Although not shown in the drawing, as another example, from a combination indicating that a big hit is won (for example, the game state after the jackpot game is a low probability gaming state with a low probability of winning the winning lottery) A combination indicating that the player has won another jackpot that is more profitable to the player than a certain jackpot (for example, a jackpot in which the gaming state after the jackpot game is a high-probability gaming state with a high probability of winning the winning lottery) Can be mentioned. Furthermore, although not shown in the figure, as another example, there is a change from a pre-combination to a post-combination that indicates the occurrence of a known continuous production (a pseudo continuous production or a pre-reading continuous production).

3) Second Image Displacement Effect Hereinafter, the second image displacement effect (formally “second” is added to distinguish the first image displacement effect and the third image displacement effect described later) will be described. The second image displacement effect is the same as the first image displacement effect in that the second image displacement effect is displayed as if the reference image 20 is displaced with respect to the display area 11. The second image displacement effect is an effect using the movable unit 40 in order to make the displacement of the reference image 20 easy to understand. In the first image displacement effect, an event as described in the following second image displacement effect may occur.

  The movable unit 40 (see FIG. 8) has a plurality of movable parts 41. The movable unit 40 in this embodiment has a total of four movable parts 41. Two movable parts 41 are arranged above and below the display area 11 respectively. The movable part 41 provided on the upper left is the upper left movable part 411, the movable part 41 provided on the upper right is the upper right movable part 412, the movable part 41 provided on the lower left is the lower left movable part 413, and the lower part. The movable part 41 provided on the right side is referred to as a lower right movable part 414. These movable parts 41 can slide between an original position (indicated by a dotted line in FIG. 8) and an advanced position (indicated by a solid line in FIG. 8) along the planar direction of the display area 11. Since any structure for operating each movable part 41 may be used, the description is omitted. The structure for operating each movable part 41 may be comprised separately (a unit may be different). For example, the upper left movable part 411 and the upper right movable part 412 and the structure for driving it are one unit, and the lower left movable part 413, the lower right movable part 414 and the structure for driving it are one unit. A configuration may be adopted (a plurality of units are collectively referred to as a movable unit 40).

  Each movable part 41 has a larger area exposed through the opening 901 formed in the game board 90 when positioned at the advanced position than when positioned at the original position. In other words, each movable portion 41 has a larger range of overlapping the display area 11 in the front-rear direction when positioned at the advanced position than when positioned at the original position. In the present embodiment, the movable part 41 located at the original position is completely covered by the game board 90, and the movable part 41 located at the original position can be visually recognized unless the back side of the game board 90 is looked into. Can not. The upper left movable part 411 and the upper right movable part 412 slide downward from the original position and reach the advanced position. The upper left movable part 411 located at the advanced position covers a part of the upper left of the display area 11. The upper right movable part 412 located at the advance position covers a part of the upper right of the display area 11. The lower left movable part 413 and the lower right movable part 414 slide upward from the original position to reach the advanced position. The lower left movable part 413 located at the advanced position covers a part of the lower left part of the display area 11. The lower right movable part 414 located at the advance position covers a part of the lower right part of the display area 11.

  It is assumed that a plurality of types of effect forms having different aspects (outer edge shapes) of the reference image 20 in the second state are set. In the present embodiment, a first form (see FIG. 9A) and a second form (see FIG. 9B) that are different in the shape of the frame image 30 in the second state are set (both are reference images 20). Is a mode in which it appears as if it is displaced three-dimensionally with respect to the display area 11). The frame image 30 of the first form has a substantially parallelogram shape that is inclined so that the upper and lower sides are directed upward from left to right. The frame image 30 of the second form exhibits a substantially parallelogram shape in which the upper and lower sides are inclined so as to go downward from left to right. In each figure for explaining the second image displacement effect, only the frame image 30 is shown, and the mode of the image inside the frame image 30 is omitted.

  When the frame image 30 of the first form is displayed in the second state, the upper left movable portion 411 and the lower right movable portion 414 are located at the advanced position. The upper right movable part 412 and the lower left movable part 413 remain in the original position. The upper left movable part 411 and the lower right movable part 414 overlap the outer area 11s generated by the display as if the reference image 20 was displaced with respect to the display area 11 (see FIG. 9A). By doing so, the reference image 20 (frame image 30) appears to be deformed by being pushed by the upper left movable part 411 and the lower right movable part 414.

  On the other hand, when the frame image 30 of the second form is displayed in the second state, the upper right movable portion 412 and the lower left movable portion 413 are located at the advanced positions. The upper left movable part 411 and the lower right movable part 414 remain in the original position. The upper right movable portion 412 and the lower left movable portion 413 overlap the outer region 11s generated by the display as if the reference image 20 was displaced with respect to the display region 11 (see FIG. 9B). By doing so, the reference image 20 (frame image 30) appears to be deformed by being pushed by the upper right movable portion 412 and the lower left movable portion 413.

  Thus, in this embodiment, a part of the movable parts 41 advance so as to overlap the outer region 11s of the frame image 30 (hereinafter, the movable part 41 located at the advanced position in the second state is referred to as the target movable part 41S). Sometimes called). As a result, the reference image 20 (frame image 30) appears to be displaced (deformed) by being pushed by the target movable portion 41S. That is, it is emphasized that the reference image 20 (frame image 30) is displaced with respect to the display area 11 by the target movable unit 41S, and the occurrence of the image displacement effect is easily understood.

  Moreover, it is good to change the object movable part 41S according to the form of the frame image 30 in a 2nd state. In the present embodiment, when the frame image 30 is in the first form, the upper left movable part 411 and the lower right movable part 414 are the target movable parts 41S, and when the frame image 30 is in the second form, the upper right movable part 412 and the lower left movable part 41S. The movable part 413 is the target movable part 41S. As described above, the movable portion 41 located at the advanced position is made different according to the displacement (deformation) of the frame image 30 with respect to the display region 11 (one or a plurality of movable portions 41 as the target movable portion 41S are completely Therefore, the difference in the displacement (deformation) of the frame image 30 is emphasized.

  In particular, as in the present embodiment, if the frame image 30 has a substantially parallelogram shape, the combination of the target movable parts 41S is set to the combination of the movable parts 41 located on the diagonal line ("the upper right movable part 412 and As if the frame image 30 (display area 11) was deformed into a substantially parallelogram by the movable part 41 by “lower left movable part 413” or “a combination of upper left movable part 411 and lower right movable part 414”). It becomes a production mode to receive an impression.

  Hereinafter, specific examples in which the second image displacement effect in the above embodiment is improved, embodied, or modified will be described. In addition, as long as possible, it is good also as a structure which applied combining the technique demonstrated using the following specific examples.

First Specific Example Various relations between the form of the frame image 30 in the second state and the movable part 41 as the target movable part 41 </ b> S can be considered in addition to those described in the above embodiment. Basically, it is assumed that the movable portion 41 that is the target movable portion 41S is set according to the form of the frame image 30 (the shape of the outer region 11s). The display area 11 is roughly divided into four parts, such as upper left, upper right, lower left, and lower right, and the movable part 41 corresponding to the location where the size of the outer area 11s increases is set as the target movable part 41S. The possible modes are listed below.

  As shown in FIG. 10A, when the reference image 20 is in an effect mode as if it is displaced downward with respect to the display area 11 (in the second state, the upper edge of the display area 11 is the frame image 30). In the case of the production mode as if it was displayed as), the upper left movable part 411 and the upper right movable part 412 are set as the target movable part 41S. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 10B, when the reference image 20 is in an effect mode as if it is displaced upward with respect to the display area 11 (in the second state, the lower edge of the display area 11 is In the case of an effect mode as if displayed as a frame image 30), the lower left movable part 413 and the lower right movable part 414 are set as the target movable part 41S. By doing in this way, it is possible to give an impression as if the reference image 20 (frame image 30) was displaced downward or upward by the movable part 41 set as the target movable part 41S. .

  As shown in FIG. 10C, when the reference image 20 is in the effect mode as if it is displaced backward (back), all the movable parts 41 are set as the target movable parts 41S. That is, the upper left movable portion 411, the upper right movable portion 412, the lower left movable portion 413, and the lower right movable portion 414 are positioned at the advanced positions. In this way, it is possible to give an impression as if the reference image 20 has been pushed and displaced by all the movable parts 41.

  As in the example shown in FIGS. 10A to 10C, the upper edge and the lower edge of the frame image 30 are displayed substantially parallel to the upper edge and the lower edge of the display area 11. Since the aspect is an aspect as if the reference image 20 is displaced in a direction substantially orthogonal to the upper edge and the lower edge of the display region 11, the upper movable part 41 (upper left movable part 411, upper right movable part 412). Both the lower movable portion 41 (the lower left movable portion 413 and the lower right movable portion 414) may be located at the advanced position as a group.

  As illustrated in FIG. 11, when the reference image 20 is in an effect mode in which the reference image 20 is inclined with respect to the display area 11, only one of the plurality of movable parts 41 is set as the target movable part 41 </ b> S. . By doing in this way, it is possible to give an impression as if the reference image 20 is inclined obliquely by the target movable part 41S.

  As in the above embodiment (FIG. 9) and the example shown in FIG. 11, the upper edge and the lower edge of the frame image 30 are displayed in a tilted state with respect to the upper edge and the lower edge of the display area 11. In this case, one of the upper movable part 41 (upper left movable part 411, upper right movable part 412) and one of the lower movable part 41 (lower left movable part 413, lower right movable part 414) are It is preferable that the position is set at the advance position and an impression is given as if the reference image 20 is tilted by being pushed by the movable portion 41 located at the advance position.

Second Specific Example Although the movable unit 40 in the above embodiment has been described as having a plurality of movable parts 41, a configuration having only one movable part 41 may be employed. When the displacement of the reference image 20 occurs (during the second state), the one movable part 41 is positioned at the advanced position so that the displacement of the reference image 20 is emphasized.

Third Specific Example Although the movable unit 40 in the above embodiment has been described as having two movable parts 41 on the upper side of the display area 11 and two movable parts 41 on the lower side, The arrangement mode is merely an example. One movable part 41 may be provided above and below the display area 11, or three or more movable parts 41 may be provided above and below the display area 11. . In addition, one or a plurality of movable parts 41 may be provided on the left and right sides of the display area 11. What is necessary is just to arrange | position the 1 or several movable part 41 according to the form (shape of the outer side area | region 11s) of the frame image 30 at the time of a 2nd state.

○ Fourth Specific Example Although the movable part 41 in the above embodiment has been described as reciprocating between the original position and the advanced position, a configuration in which a plurality of positions are set as the advanced position of the movable part 41 It is good. For example, in the configuration in which the movable unit 40 includes the upper left movable part 411, the upper right movable part 412, the lower left movable part 413, and the lower right movable part 414 as described in the above embodiment, each movable part 41 Can be located at the first advance position displaced from the original position to the center of the display area 11 and at the second advance position displaced further from the first advance position toward the center of the display area 11. And That is, each movable part 41 can be positioned at a plurality of advance positions with different amounts of protrusion toward the center of the display area 11.

  As shown in FIG. 12A, when the frame image 30 is in the first form A, the upper left movable portion 411 and the lower right movable portion 414 are positioned at the first advanced position. As shown in FIG. 12 (b), the first form B in which the frame image 30 is displaced (deformed) more than the first form A (the amount of displacement from the outer edge of the display area 11 of the frame image 30 than the first form A). In the embodiment, the upper left movable portion 411 and the lower right movable portion 414 are positioned at the second advanced position. That is, the advance position of the target movable unit 41S is changed in accordance with the amount of displacement (deformation) of the frame image 30 with respect to the display area 11. It can be said that the shape of the frame image 30 is controlled to be different depending on the advance position of the target movable unit 41S.

  As described above, by setting a plurality of positions as the advance position of the movable portion 41 and controlling the advance position according to the displacement (deformation) amount of the frame image 30 with respect to the display area 11, the frame image 30 is movable. It is possible to improve the effect of giving an impression as if it was deformed by the portion 41.

4) Use of image displacement effects in battle effects (third image displacement effects)
Hereinafter, the third image displacement effect (formally “third” is added to distinguish from the first image displacement effect and the second image displacement effect described above) will be described. The third image displacement effect is the same as the first image displacement effect and the second image displacement effect in that the third image displacement effect is displayed as if the reference image 20 is displaced with respect to the display area 11. . The third image effect occurs during a so-called “battle effect”.

  The battle effect (see FIG. 13) is advantageous to the player when the teammate character 50 and the enemy character 51 fight and the teammate character 50 wins (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as victory ending). It happens that a new event occurs. In the present embodiment, when the winning ending is reached (see FIG. 13C-1), it is determined that the target determination result is a jackpot (the jackpot is notified). On the other hand, when the ally character 50 is defeated (the enemy character 51 is victorious) (hereinafter also referred to as a defeat ending) (see FIG. 13C-2), whether the target is appropriate or not is determined. It is determined that the result is out of order.

  In the battle effect, an attack effect (specific effect) indicating that the teammate character 50 attacks the enemy character 51 is executed. A plurality of types of attack effects are set as candidates that can be executed as the attack effects. In this embodiment, there are two types of first attack effects (first specific effects) (see FIG. 13 (b-1)) and second attack effects (second specific effects) (see FIG. 13 (b-2)). Is set. The first attack presentation and the second attack presentation differ in the “attack strength” of the teammate character 50. Compared to the first attack effect, the second attack effect indicates that the teammate character 50 has a stronger attack. The first attack effect is a so-called “weak attack”, and the second attack effect is a so-called “strong attack”. In the battle effect, one of the first attack effect and the second attack effect occurs during a predetermined period. Since the strength of the attack of the teammate character 50 is “second attack production> first attack production”, the first attack production occurs when the second attack production occurs during the period. Compared to the case, it is set so that the probability of reaching the winning ending is high (that is, the probability that the determination result is a big hit (the jackpot reliability) is high).

  A basic aspect of an image displayed at the time of the first attack effect (hereinafter also referred to as the first attack image 501) and an image displayed at the time of the second attack effect (hereinafter also referred to as the second attack image 502). ) Is different in basic aspects. That is, a display is made so that it can be understood that the attack of the teammate character 50 against the enemy character 51 is different (one is a weak attack and the other is a strong attack). For example, characters indicating the content of the attack are displayed (see FIGS. 13B-1 and 13B-2).

  As described above, although the basic aspects of the first attack image 501 and the second attack image 502 are different, only the difference between the basic aspects of such an image is any of the effects that are currently occurring. The player may not know (whether it is a weak attack or a strong attack). Based on this, in this embodiment, an image displacement effect is not generated at the time of the first attack effect (see FIG. 13B-1), and an image displacement effect is generated at the time of the second attack effect (FIG. 13B-2). (See)) (It is assumed that the image displacement effect at the time of the second attack effect is the third image displacement effect). That is, the first attack effect is an effect that does not displace (“shake”) the first attack image 501 with respect to the display area 11, while the second attack effect uses the second attack image 502 as the reference image 20. This is an effect in which the second attack image 502 is displayed (“shake”) as if it is displaced with respect to the display area 11.

  Since the image displacement effect is shown as if the image displayed in the display area 11 is shifted with respect to the display area 11 by applying some force, the screen is displayed when a “strong attack” occurs. The player can be given the impression of shaking. Therefore, it is possible to clearly show that the second attack effect is a so-called “strong attack”.

  Hereinafter, specific examples in which the third image displacement effect (battle effect) in the above embodiment is improved, embodied, or modified will be described. As far as possible, a configuration in which a plurality of techniques described using the following specific examples are combined may be applied.

First Specific Example Although it has been described that the third image displacement effect in the above-described embodiment can occur as a part of the battle effect, it can be used other than the battle effect. In other words, during a certain predetermined period, an effect (first specific effect) in which the first image 521 is displayed in the display area 11 and an effect in which the second image 522 different from the first image 521 is displayed in the display area 11 are displayed. In the case where any one of the effects (second specific effects) suggesting that the jackpot reliability is higher than when the first specific effect occurs, the image displacement occurs when the first specific effect occurs. An effect is not generated, and an image displacement effect is generated (a third image displacement effect is generated) when the second specific effect is generated.

  An example of such an effect is a so-called “selective effect” (see FIG. 14). In order to show that the selection of the second image 522 is a so-called chance up in the presentation shown to the player by selecting either the first image 521 or the second image 522, the first image 521 When the second image 522 is selected, the image displacement effect is generated (see FIG. 14B-2). When the second image 522 is selected, the image displacement effect is not generated (see FIG. 14B-1). .

-2nd specific example In the said embodiment, it demonstrated that two types, the 1st attack production (1st specific production) and the 2nd attack production (2nd production), were set as attack production (specific production). However, three or more types of attack effects (specific effects) may be set.

  In the case of such a configuration, an image displacement effect (third image displacement effect) is set to occur when an attack effect having the highest degree of reliability of the big hit is generated among three or more types of attack effects. It can be assumed that In this way, there is an advantage that it is possible to easily understand the difference between the attack production that is most pleasing to the player and other attack productions. On the other hand, an image displacement effect is produced when any one of the M types (M <N) of the attack effects counted from the one with the highest jackpot reliability among the N types (N ≧ 3) of the attack effects. It is conceivable that the third image displacement effect is set to occur. By doing so, it is possible to easily show that the occurrence of the image displacement effect suggests a jackpot reliability of a certain level or higher.

○ Third Specific Example In the above embodiment, an image displacement effect does not occur during the first attack effect (first specific effect), and an image displacement effect (third image displacement effect) occurs during the second attack effect (second specific effect). However, it is assumed that an image displacement effect is generated at any attack effect, and the displacement mode of the reference image 20 (attack image) at each attack effect is different. To do.

  Specifically, the displacement (displacement) of the first attack image 501 with respect to the display area 11 at the time of the first attack effect (see FIG. 15A) is greater than that of the display area 11 at the time of the second attack effect. It sets so that the magnitude | size (refer FIG.15 (b)) of the displacement (deviation) of the 2 attack image 502 may become large. That is, the attack image (reference image 20) with respect to the display area 11 is larger (shakes greatly) when the attack effect has a relatively high jackpot reliability than when the attack effect has a lower jackpot reliability. Set to make it easier to understand that there is a difference in jackpot reliability.

  The matters described in this example can be applied to a configuration (second specific example) in which three or more types of attack effects (specific effects) are set. For example, in a configuration in which three of the first attack production (lowest jackpot reliability), the second attack production, and the third attack production (lowest jackpot reliability) are set, the image displacement production is performed during the first attack production. Is not generated (see FIG. 16A), and an image displacement effect is generated during the second attack effect and the third attack effect (see FIGS. 16B and 16C). Then, the display area 11 at the time of the third attack effect is larger than the displacement (shift) of the reference image 20 (second attack image 502) with respect to the display area 11 at the time of the second attack effect (see FIG. 16B). Is set so that the magnitude of displacement (displacement) of the reference image 20 (third attack image 503) with respect to (see FIG. 16C) increases.

○ Fourth Specific Example In the above embodiment, it has been described that an image displacement effect (third image displacement effect) can occur during an attack effect indicating that the teammate character 50 is attacking, but the enemy side An image displacement effect may be generated during an effect indicating that the character 51 is attacking (hereinafter also referred to as a defensive effect) (see FIG. 17). In one battle effect, both the attack effect and the defensive effect described above may be generated, or only one of them may be generated.

  Two types of defensive effects are set: a first defensive effect (first specific effect) (see FIG. 17 (b-1)) and a second defensive effect (second specific effect) (see FIG. 17 (b-2)). It is assumed that The first defensive effect and the second defensive effect differ in the “attack strength” of the enemy character 51. It is assumed that the second defensive effect indicates that the enemy character 51 has a stronger attack than the first defensive effect. Since the battle effect is set as a success ending by the ally character 50 winning, the jackpot reliability when the first defensive effect occurs is more reliable when the second defensive effect occurs It can be said that it is higher than the degree. That is, the relationship between the level of jackpot reliability of the first defensive effect and the second defensive effect (see FIGS. 17 (b-1) and (b-2)) is the same as the first attack effect and the second described in the above embodiment. This is the reverse of the relationship of the jackpot reliability of the attack effect (see FIGS. 13B-1 and 13B-2).

  Under such conditions, an image displacement effect is not generated when the first defensive effect is executed (see FIG. 17B-1), but an image displacement effect is generated when the second defensive effect is executed ( (See FIG. 17B-2). In this way, it is possible to clearly show that the attack of the enemy character 51 at the time of the second defense effect is a so-called “strong attack”. With regard to the jackpot reliability, an effect mode in which an image displacement effect occurs with respect to an attack effect has a higher jackpot reliability, and with respect to a defense effect, an effect with an image displacement effect results in a lower jackpot reliability.

  When both the attack effect and the defensive effect are generated in one battle effect, the first defensive effect is executed although the image displacement effect is not generated when the second defensive effect is executed, contrary to the above aspect. An image displacement effect may be generated when In this way, in both attack production and defensive production, when the image displacement production occurs, the jackpot reliability is higher (the chance is up), so it is possible to grasp the level of jackpot reliability. There is an advantage that it is easy.

5) Battle notice effect It is assumed that a battle notice effect occurs before the battle effect in which the ally character 50 and the enemy character 51 fight (see FIG. 18). The battle notice effect is an effect that suggests in advance what kind of character will fight in the battle effect. In the battle notice effect in the present embodiment, the type of the enemy character 51 fighting in the battle effect is notified. Any aspect of the notice in the battle notice effect may be used. A plurality of types of notice modes may be set. In this embodiment, after the silhouette S of the enemy character 51 is displayed (see FIG. 18 (a)), the character represented by the silhouette S becomes clear (see FIG. 18 (b)). The battle notice effect that the type of the enemy character 51 fighting is shown is executed. In the following description, the character that has been notified in the battle notification effect may be referred to as “notification character 60”.

  Assume that the ally character 50 appearing in the battle effect is the character A (see FIG. 18C). That is, when the character A fights and wins against a character appearing as the enemy character 51, it is determined that the determination result is a big hit.

  It is assumed that three characters, character X, character Y, and character Z, are set as the enemy character 51 that may appear in the battle effect. Basically, one of the three characters will appear in the battle effect. Therefore, it is normal (normal mode) that one of the three characters is indicated as “notice character 60” in the battle notice effect (see FIG. 18B).

  On the other hand, as a special notice mode (hereinafter also referred to as a special mode) (see FIG. 19) based on the battle notice effect, a mode in which the character A is shown as the “notice character 60” may occur. As described above, the character A is a character that appears as the teammate character 50 in the battle effect. That is, the character A, which is the same kind of character as the teammate character 50, may be suggested as the enemy character 51 appearing in the battle effect by the battle notice effect (see FIG. 19B).

  Due to the nature of the “battle production”, it is not normal that the character to be battled is of the same kind. Therefore, it is possible to give a surprise to the player by generating such a special mode that the unusual character suggests as the notice character 60 in the battle notice effect. In the present embodiment, it is indicated that the teammate character 50 is the character A before the battle effect is started (for example, in the situation before the battle effect occurs, An effect or an image (as shown in FIG. 18A and the upper right in FIG. 19A) is shown as if the side character 50 is the character A). Therefore, when the character A is shown as the notice character 60 in the battle notice effect, the player can easily grasp that the character A is the same kind of character as the teammate character 50.

  When the battle notice effect is in a special mode, it is determined that the battle effect (see FIG. 19C) to be generated thereafter has a victory ending. In the present embodiment, since the fact that the battle effect is the winning ending is determined that the result of the determination is a big hit, the fact that the battle notice effect becomes a special aspect is an effect that determines the big win (so-called premier) It can be said that

  In this embodiment, even if the notice character 60 is shown to be the character A in the battle notice effect, the enemy character 51 appearing in the subsequent battle effect is a normal character (in this embodiment). One of the characters X to Z) (see FIG. 19C). The video where the character A (friend) and the character A (enemy) fight is uncomfortable, and it is costly to prepare such a video, so the battle effect itself has a special aspect. There is no need to do it. In addition, since it is highly probable that the notice character 60 becomes the character A in the battle notice effect, if it is an intuitional player, it is highly likely that the player will notice that it is a premier effect. It can be said that there is no need to output. However, it does not deny that a battle effect in which the character A (friend) and the character A (enemy) fight is executed.

  Hereinafter, specific examples in which the battle notice effect (battle effect) in the above embodiment is improved, embodied, or modified will be described. As far as possible, a configuration in which a plurality of techniques described using the following specific examples are combined may be applied.

O 1st specific example When a battle notice effect becomes a special aspect, you may make it alert | report that a special effect generate | occur | produces and it is a big hit, without performing a battle effect. As described above, since the fact that the battle notice effect is in a special mode is that the jackpot is determined, it is not necessary to indicate victory or defeat in the subsequent battle effect, and the battle effect may not be executed. . In addition, even if it is a case where it is set as the structure with such a case where a battle production does not generate | occur | produce, it is assumed that a battle notice production suggests the character (enemy character 51) which appears in a battle production.

O Second specific example It is assumed that the player can select the teammate character 50 appearing in the battle effect from a plurality of types of characters. For example, a selection screen is displayed, and it is assumed that the player can select a favorite character as the teammate character 50 from the characters A1 and A2 (see FIG. 20A). In such a case, the special aspect of the battle notice effect differs depending on the character selected as the teammate character 50. That is, when the character A1 is selected as the ally character 50, the special feature of the battle notice effect is that the notice character 60 becomes the character A1 in the battle notice effect (see FIGS. 20B and 20C). . Although not shown, when the character A2 is selected as the ally character 50, the fact that the notice character 60 becomes the character A2 in the battle notice effect is a special aspect of the battle notice effect. That is, for each character that can be selected as the teammate character 50, it is preferable to prepare a specific aspect of the corresponding battle notice effect.

  On the other hand, when a part of characters is selected as the teammate character 50, it may be set so that a specific aspect of the battle notice effect does not occur. According to the above example, when the character A1 is selected as the ally character 50, a battle notice effect in which the character A1 becomes the notice character 60 occurs, but the character A2 is selected as the ally character 50. In this case, it is assumed that the battle notice effect that the character A2 becomes the notice character 60 does not occur. If it does in this way, it is possible to implement | achieve the interesting game nature that it will be decided whether a battle notice effect of a special aspect generate | occur | produces according to which character is selected as the ally side character 50. FIG.

〇 Third Specific Example It has been described that the battle notice effect in the above embodiment is for notifying the enemy character 51 appearing in the battle effect, but the teammate character 50 appearing in the battle effect is determined by the battle notice effect. It may be a notice.

  It is assumed that a plurality of types of characters are set as characters that can appear as the teammate character 50. In the battle notice effect, one of the plurality of types of characters is shown as the notice character 60. It is assumed that a special mode occurs in which the type of the notice character 60 and the type of character set as the enemy character 51 are the same type of character.

O 4th specific example Although it demonstrated that the battle notice effect in the said embodiment alerts the aspect of a battle effect, it is also possible to apply the same technical idea about effects other than a battle effect.

  It is assumed that the notice effect provides an indication of the target effect. The target effect is assumed to show at least two effect elements. It is assumed that the production elements are usually different from each other due to the nature of the production. Under such conditions, it is assumed that there is a case where a suggestion (special zone type aspect) is given by the notice effect so that the effect elements appearing in the target effect are the same. In other words, the player is suggested that the two performance elements are the same in the notice effect under the condition that the two performance elements shown in the target effect cannot be considered the same. And In this way, the player can be surprised by the special aspect of the notice effect.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described in detail, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment at all, A various change is possible in the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention.

  Although the gaming machine 1 according to the above embodiment is a so-called pachinko gaming machine, the same technical idea applies to other gaming machines such as a spinning-type gaming machine, except for matters using a configuration unique to the pachinko gaming machine. Is possible.
