The probability that the display of the symbol combination for which the addition of the symbol combination is permitted is the same probability.

  In the slot machine 10, the probability that the display of the symbol combination in which the award medal is determined to be given as the prize when the game is the big bonus game is permitted when the game is the first general game or the second general game is performed. The probability that the display of the symbol combination in which the award medal is determined to be given as the prize is permitted is higher.

  Further, in the slot machine 10, the probability that the display of the symbol combination in which the award medal is determined to be given as the prize when the game is the single bonus game is permitted when the game is the first general game or the second general game is performed. Although it is higher than the probability that the display of the symbol combination for which the prize medal is provided as the prize is permitted, it is determined to be substantially the same probability.

  Further, in the slot machine 10, when the game is a big bonus game, the display of the big bonus stop eye and the single bonus stop eye is not allowed. Similarly, in the slot machine 10, when a single bonus game is played, the display of the big bonus stop eye and the single bonus stop eye is not allowed. The symbol combinations that can be displayed when the single bonus game is allowed are at least partially combined with the symbol combinations that can be displayed when the single bonus game is not executed (for example, the first general game). Can be different.

When the operation switch 29 is operated, a control signal indicating that the operation switch 29 is operated is input from the operation switch 29 to the main control CPU 40a.

  The main control ROM 40b stores a main control program. The main control ROM 40b stores a winning information table in which a winning probability for each winning information is determined. In the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, a winning information determination table referred to for each setting of the gaming machine is stored in the main control ROM 40b. In the slot machine 10, the winning information table referred to for each setting of the gaming machine is further stored in the main control ROM 40b for each internal control state. The winning information determination table is used in a winning information lottery (a so-called winning lottery). The winning information determination random number is generated in the main control board 40. The random number used as the winning information determining random number may be a hardware random number or a software random number.

  In the winning information lottery, the type of the missing or winning information is determined. That is, since the type of the winning information is determined by the winning information lottery, it corresponds to determining whether or not to allow the display of the symbol combination in which the prize is determined by the winning information lottery. Furthermore, in the winning information lottery, it corresponds to determining the type of display result that is allowed to be displayed. The main control CPU 40a controls an internal control state. The main control CPU 40a performs various processes (for example, winning information lottery) according to the type of the internal control state.

Next, the sub control board 41 will be described.
The sub-control board 41 includes a sub-control CPU 41a that executes a control operation in a predetermined procedure, a sub-control ROM 41b that stores a control program of the sub-control CPU 41a, and a sub-control RAM 41c that can write and read necessary data. Is provided. The effect display device 14 is connected to the sub control CPU 41a. The decorative lamp La is connected to the sub control CPU 41a. A speaker Sp is connected to the sub-control CPU 41a.

  The sub-control ROM 41b stores a sub-control program. In the sub-control ROM 41b, a display effect pattern indicating a display effect mode of the effect display device 14, a sound effect pattern indicating a sound output mode of the speaker Sp, and a light emitting effect pattern indicating a light emitting mode of the decoration lamp La are provided. Is stored.

  Various information that is appropriately rewritten during the operation of the slot machine 10 is stored (set) in the sub control RAM 41c. Specifically, in the sub control RAM 41c, sub status information (such as a flag) relating to the internal control status is stored by the sub control CPU 41a.

Hereinafter, a process related to the variable game executed by the main control CPU 40a based on the main control program will be described.
The main control CPU 40a, upon input of a control signal indicating that an operation has been performed from various buttons or the like, executes predetermined control defined by the control signal. Then, the main control CPU 40a executes the display control of the various information display units 17 by inputting various control signals and various controls each time. In addition, when giving a prize medal, the main control CPU 40a outputs a drive signal to the hopper 26 when the credit limit is exceeded, and pays out one medal each time the drive signal is output. To control. In addition, the main control CPU 40a outputs a drive signal to the hopper 26 at the time of credit settlement so as to control to pay out medals for the credit.

  Then, when a medal is inserted through the medal insertion slot 18 or a control signal is input from the MAXBET button 20, the main control CPU 40a sets the bet number. Further, the main control CPU 40 a updates the number of credits according to the operation of the MAXBET button 20. When increasing the number of credits by inserting medals, the main control CPU 40a updates the number of credits. Then, the main control CPU 40a generates a state in which a variable game can be started when the number of bets of three bets is set.

  Subsequently, when a control signal is input from the start lever 22 in a state where the game can be started, the main control CPU 40a performs a winning information lottery. That is, the main control CPU 40a performs the winning information lottery triggered by the start operation.

  The main control CPU 40a acquires the value of the winning information determination random number, and performs the winning information lottery by referring to the winning information determination table stored in the main control ROM 40b based on the winning information determining random number. In the winning information lottery, the main control CPU 40a determines winning information to be won by using a winning information determination table according to the setting of the gaming machine and the internal control state. If no winning information is won in the winning information lottery, the main control CPU 40a determines a loss.

  When the winning information is determined, the main control CPU 40a stores, in the main controlling RAM 40c, result display information (such as a flag) capable of specifying a symbol combination permitted to be stopped and displayed by the determined winning information ( Settings). By the way, the main control CPU 40a can specify that the display of the big bonus stop eye is permitted when the loss is determined by the winning information lottery and the big bonus winning history is stored. The result display information is stored (set) in the main control RAM 40c.

  In addition, the main control CPU 40a sets the result display information capable of specifying the symbol combination permitted to be displayed by the determined winning information by the end of the variable game which is the target of the winning information lottery that has determined the winning information. Erase (clear). In the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, when there is no result display information that can specify the outlier, and when the result display information is not stored in the main control RAM 40c, the main control CPU 40a Is configured to be specified.

  In the present embodiment, by performing the winning information lottery, it is determined whether or not the display of the single bonus stop at least corresponding to the special display result is permitted. Therefore, the main control CPU 40a that performs the winning information lottery is determined. Functions as an allowance determining means. In addition, controlling the variable game based on the lottery result of the winning information lottery performed under the winning probability of the single bonus game is equivalent to controlling the variable game by the special variable game. Therefore, the main control CPU 40a that performs the winning information lottery under the winning probability of the single bonus game and controls the variable game based on the lottery result of the winning information lottery functions as a special variable game control unit.

  Further, as described above, since the display of the single bonus stop eye is not allowed in the single bonus game, the single bonus winning information is not won in the winning information lottery performed under the winning probability of the single bonus game. Therefore, when the variable game is controlled based on the lottery result of the winning information lottery performed under the winning probability of the single bonus game, that is, when the variable game is controlled by the special variable game, the single display corresponding to the special display result is performed. The display of a bonus stop eye is not allowed.

  Further, the main control CPU 40a instructs the start of the fluctuating game when a control signal is input from the start lever 22 (after performing predetermined processing such as winning information lottery). Further, the main control CPU 40a outputs a variable game start command indicating a lottery result of the winning information lottery and an internal control state in which the variable game is performed to the sub control CPU 41a. Note that the main control CPU 40a receives the control signal from the start lever 22 and starts the rotation of each of the reels 13L, 13C, 13R in a state where the wait time has elapsed from the end of the immediately preceding fluctuating game. Control the reels 13L, 13C, 13R. Incidentally, the variable game start command to the sub-control CPU 41a can be output in accordance with the start of the rotation of each of the reels 13L, 13C, 13R.

  Subsequently, when a control signal is input from the stop buttons 23L, 23C, 23R, the main control CPU 40a performs control (stop control) for stopping rotation of the reel corresponding to the control signal. Further, the main control CPU 40a grasps information on the rotation position and the stop position of each reel based on the position signal from the reel sensor corresponding to each reel. In other words, the position signal from each reel sensor causes the main control CPU 40a to specify the rotation state of each reel during rotation of each reel, while each reel is not rotated (during stop). Is stopped by the main control CPU 40a. Note that the main control CPU 40a does not perform stop control on the rotating reel until a control signal is input from the stop buttons 23L, 23C, and 23R.

  When the control signals from the stop buttons 23L, 23C, and 23R are input, the main control CPU 40a outputs various control signals corresponding to the control signals to the sub-control CPU 41a. The control signals from the stop buttons 23L, 23C, 23R allow the sub-control CPU 41a to know the operation status of the stop buttons 23L, 23C, 23R, that is, which stop button has been operated and the order in which the stop buttons have been operated. .

Next, the stop control performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
The main control CPU 40a stops the rotation of each reel within a predetermined range (up to four symbols) from the timing at which each of the stop buttons 23L, 23C, 23R is operated based on the lottery result of the winning information lottery. Stop and display any symbol combination. When stopping the rotating reels, the main control CPU 40a is stored in the main control ROM 40b in accordance with the winning information that has been won and the operation sequence and operation timing of the stop buttons 23L, 23C, 23R. Stop control for stopping and displaying the symbol combination is performed based on the control data for the stop control.

  The main control CPU 40a may perform stop control using different stop control data depending on the operation order of the three stop buttons and the operation timing of the stop buttons, even in a situation where the same winning information is won. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a that performs control to stop the rotation of the reels 13L, 13C, and 13R as the rotating body functions as stop control means.

  Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a performs a winning determination when the rotation of all the reels 13L, 13C, 13R is stopped and the symbol combination is stopped and displayed. In the winning determination, the main control CPU 40a reads the result display information from the main control RAM 40c, and determines whether or not the symbol combination corresponding to the read result display information is stopped and displayed on the winning line NL. Further, in the winning determination, the main control CPU 40a identifies a symbol combination stopped and displayed on the winning line NL from a position signal input as the rotation of each of the reels 13L, 13C, 13R is stopped, and determines the symbol combination. Is determined to be a symbol combination permitted to be stopped and displayed in the result display information.

  In the winning determination, the main control CPU 40a stops at the result display information if the symbol combination stopped and displayed on the winning line NL is a symbol combination permitted to be stopped and displayed by the result display information. The winning of the symbol combination which is allowed to be displayed (winning of the combination) is determined. On the other hand, in the winning determination, the main control CPU 40a determines that the symbol combination stopped and displayed on the winning line NL is not a symbol combination permitted to be stopped and displayed in the result display information, and the stop display is performed in the result display information. The non-winning of the symbol combination that is allowed to be performed (non-winning of the combination) is determined.

  Then, when determining a winning of a symbol combination permitted to be stopped and displayed by the result display information in the winning determination, the main control CPU 40a performs control for giving a prize associated with the symbol combination. For example, the main control CPU 40a performs control for giving four medals as prize medals when judging the winning of the cherry stop.

  In addition, the main control CPU 40a performs control to give a re-game when determining a winning of a symbol combination in which a re-game is determined as a prize. As the control for giving the replay, the main control CPU 40a sets the same bet number as the variable game in which the winning is determined. When determining the winning of the symbol combination, the main control CPU 40a outputs a winning instruction command instructing the symbol combination determined to be a winning to the sub-control CPU 41a.

Next, a description will be given of a process related to the variable game executed by the sub control CPU 41a based on the sub control program.
When the various commands such as the variable game start command and the prize winning instruction command are input, the sub-controlling CPU 41a displays the display contents of the effect display device 14 and the sound of the speaker Sp so that various effects are executed based on the contents instructed by the commands. The output mode and the light emission mode of the decorative lamp La are controlled. When the winning control command is not input, the sub-controlling CPU 41a recognizes that a symbol combination for which no prize is determined is stopped and displayed on the winning line NL. In addition, since the sub control CPU 41a can also grasp the stop situation of each of the reels 13L, 13C, 13R, it is grasped that a symbol combination for which a prize is not determined from the stop situation is stopped and displayed on the winning line NL. it can. Further, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control for performing various effects each time a variable game start command is input.

  In the slot machine 10 according to the present embodiment, when the supply voltage becomes equal to or lower than a predetermined value, the main control CPU 40a performs a power-off process. Similarly, when the supply voltage becomes equal to or less than the predetermined value, the sub-control CPU 41a performs a power-off process.

  In the power-off process performed by the main control CPU 40a, a process for storing and holding the contents stored in the main control RAM 40c is performed. In the power-off process performed by the sub-control CPU 41a, a process for storing and holding the storage contents of the sub-control RAM 41c is performed. The main control CPU 40a and the sub-control CPU 41a perform a power-off process when a power-off signal is input.

  Further, in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, when the power of the slot machine 10 is turned on, the power-on process is performed by the main control CPU 40a. Similarly, when the power of the slot machine 10 is turned on, the power-on process is performed by the sub control CPU 41a. In the power-on process performed by the main control CPU 40a, the process of restoring the stored content of the main control RAM 40c or the initial information stored in the main control RAM 40c initializes the stored content of the main control RAM 40c. Is performed. In the power-on process performed by the sub-control CPU 41a, the stored content of the sub-control RAM 41c is restored, or the initial information is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c so that the stored content of the sub-control RAM 41c is restored. Is performed. Incidentally, the storage contents stored in the main control RAM 40c and the storage contents stored in the sub control RAM 41c are at least partially different.

  The main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the setting device 28 is operated in the power-on process. When the setting device 28 is not operated, the main control CPU 40a performs a process of restoring the stored content of the main control RAM 40c in the power-on process. On the other hand, when the setting device 28 is operated, the main control CPU 40a performs a process for initializing the storage content of the main control RAM 40c in the power-on process. When the setting switch 28 is operated and the operation switch 29 is operated, the main control CPU 40a changes the setting of the gaming machine according to the operation of the operation switch 29 in the power-on process, and The main control RAM 40c stores setting information capable of specifying the setting of the gaming machine. In the power-on process, when the setting device 28 is operated, the main control CPU 40a outputs a control signal indicating that the setting device 28 is operated to the sub-control CPU 41a.

  Then, in the power-on process, when a control signal indicating that the setting device 28 has been operated is input, the sub-control CPU 41a performs a process for initializing the storage contents of the sub-control RAM 41c. On the other hand, in the power-on process, when the sub-control CPU 41a does not input a control signal indicating that the setting device 28 has been operated, the sub-control CPU 41a performs a process of restoring the stored content of the sub-control RAM 41c.

Next, a mode of transition of the internal control state will be described with reference to FIG.
When shifting the internal control state, the main control CPU 40a outputs a state instruction command indicating the transfer destination internal control state to the sub-control CPU 41a. By inputting the state instruction command, the sub control CPU 41a can specify the internal control state managed by the main control CPU 40a.

  When determining the winning of the promotion replay stop eye in the first general game, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the second general game. Further, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the big bonus game when determining the winning of the stop eye of the big bonus in the first general game. Then, when shifting from the first general game to the big bonus game, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the first general game when the end condition of the big bonus game is satisfied. In addition, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the single bonus game when determining the winning of the single bonus stop eye in the first general game. Then, when shifting from the first general game to the single bonus game, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the first general game when the condition for ending the single bonus game is satisfied.

  Further, when determining the winning in the fall replay stop eye in the second general game, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the first general game. In addition, when determining the winning of the stop eye of the big bonus in the second general game, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the big bonus game. Then, when shifting from the second general game to the big bonus game, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the second general game when the end condition of the big bonus game is satisfied. When determining the winning of the single bonus stop in the second general game, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the single bonus game. Then, when shifting from the second general game to the single bonus game, the main control CPU 40a shifts to the second general game when the end condition of the single bonus game is satisfied.

Next, a description will be given of a mode of transition of the effect state with reference to FIG.
In the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, as the effect state, a normal effect state, a chance effect state, a standby state, an advantageous effect state, and a big bonus effect state are controlled. Various effect states are controlled by the sub-control CPU 41a.

  In an effect state other than the big bonus effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control to shift to the big bonus effect state when a prize for stopping the big bonus is instructed (the big bonus game is given). When the big bonus game is over, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control to shift to the effect state before shifting to the big bonus effect state. For example, in a case where the big bonus game is provided from the normal effect state and the state is shifted to the big bonus effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control for shifting from the big bonus effect state to the normal effect state when the big bonus game ends. .

  Incidentally, the sub-controlling CPU 41a does not perform control for shifting the effect state when an instruction to win a single bonus stop is issued (single bonus game is given) in an effect state other than the big bonus effect state. Control is performed to continue the staging state.

  In the big bonus effect state, the sub control CPU 41a counts the number of medals paid out after the transition to the big bonus effect state (after the big bonus game is provided). When the number of medals paid out after the transition to the big bonus effect state exceeds the maximum payout number (for example, 264) and the end condition of the big bonus game is satisfied, the sub control CPU 41a sets the big bonus. Control is performed to transition to the effect state before the effect state transition.

Here, the control content in the normal effect state will be described.
The sub-controlling CPU 41a performs a chance shift lottery when the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information is won in the normal effect state. The chance shift lottery in the present embodiment is performed under a winning combination according to a symbol combination allowed to be displayed, that is, winning information. In the slot machine 10 according to the present embodiment, the winning probability is higher in the case of winning the eleventh winning information with a lower winning probability compared to the twenty-first winning information than in the case of winning the twenty-first winning information. A chance transfer lottery is performed below. The random number used for the chance shift lottery may be a hardware random number or a software random number.

  Then, when winning the chance shift lottery, the sub control CPU 41a stores chance shift information indicating that the shift to the chance effect state has been determined in the sub control RAM 41c. Note that the sub-control CPU 41a controls the chance transition information to be deleted from the sub-control RAM 41c upon transition from the chance effect state to the normal effect state or the standby state. In addition, during the control of the normal effect state, when the chance shift information is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control to shift from the normal effect state to the chance effect state.

  The sub-control CPU 41a performs an advantageous transfer lottery when the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information is won in the normal effect state. The advantageous transfer lottery in the present embodiment is performed under a winning combination according to the symbol combination allowed to be displayed, that is, the winning information that has been won. In the slot machine 10 according to the present embodiment, the winning probability is higher in the case of winning the eleventh winning information with a lower winning probability compared to the twenty-first winning information than in the case of winning the twenty-first winning information. An advantageous transfer lottery is performed below. Note that the random number used for the advantageous transfer lottery may be a hardware random number or a software random number.

  Then, when the sub-control CPU 41a wins the advantageous transition lottery, the sub-control RAM 41c stores the advantageous transition information indicating that the transition to the advantageous effect state is determined. The sub-controlling CPU 41a controls to delete the advantageous transition information from the sub-control RAM 41c when the transition from the advantageous effect state to the normal effect state occurs. In addition, during the control of the normal effect state, when the advantageous transition information is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control to shift from the normal effect state to the standby state.

  In the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, it is described that the chance shift lottery and the advantageous shift lottery are performed when the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information is won in the normal effect state. Various specifications can be considered as specifications for performing the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery when the winning information or the 21st winning information is won.

  For example, when winning the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information, the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery can be performed by one lottery. In addition, when winning the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information, the chance shift lottery is performed first, and when the chance shift lottery is not won, the advantageous shift lottery can be performed. . Similarly, when winning the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information, the advantage transfer lottery may be performed first, and the chance transfer lottery may be performed if the advantage transfer lottery is not won. In addition, when winning the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information, after performing one of the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery, the other lottery is performed regardless of the result of the lottery, If any of the lotteries has been won, the lottery that is advantageous to the player (advantaged shift lottery) may be given priority.

  Further, in the normal effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a performs any one of the stop button 23C or the stop button 23R in the fluctuation game in which the stop button 23C or the stop button 23R is not allowed to be operated first. When is operated first, a penalty is given. The sub-control CPU 41a causes a disadvantage to the player by giving the penalty. When a penalty is awarded in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, no chance shift lottery or advantageous shift lottery is performed even when the eleventh win information or the twenty-first win information is won.

Next, control contents in the chance effect state will be described.
In the chance effect state, the sub control CPU 41a counts the number of executions of the variable game performed in the chance effect state in the sub control RAM 41c. When shifting from the normal effect state to the chance effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the number of chance stays in the sub-control RAM 41c. The sub-controlling CPU 41a subtracts (−1) from the number of chance stays each time the variable game is performed in the chance effect state, and updates the number until the number reaches “0 (zero)”. Then, when the number of chance stays after subtraction becomes “0 (zero)”, the end condition of the chance effect state is satisfied, and the sub-controlling CPU 41a shifts from the chance effect state to the normal effect state. Perform control.

  In addition, in the chance production state, the sub-control CPU 41a performs an advantageous transfer lottery when the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information is won. Note that the winning probability of the advantageous transition lottery in the chance production state is higher than the winning probability of the advantageous transition lottery in the normal production state. That is, in the chance effect state, it is easier to win the advantageous transition lottery than in the normal effect state, and it can be said that the chance effect state is a more advantageous effect state for the player than the normal effect state.

  Then, when the sub-control CPU 41a wins the advantageous transition lottery, the sub-control RAM 41c stores the advantageous transition information indicating that the transition to the advantageous effect state is determined. Further, the CPU 41a for sub-control performs control to shift from the chance effect state to the standby state when the advantageous transition information is stored in the sub-control RAM 41c during the control of the chance effect state.

Next, control contents in the standby state will be described.
The sub-control CPU 41a operates the stop button for stopping and displaying the bell stop when the winning of any of the 32nd winning information to the 34th winning information is instructed in the standby state. The display contents of the effect display device 14 are controlled so as to execute a navigation effect for navigating (the order of the stop operation). For example, in the standby state, when the winning of the thirty-fourth winning information is instructed in the standby state, the sub-control CPU 41a performs the navigating effect of instructing to operate the stop button 23R first among the three stop buttons. The display contents of the effect display device 14 are controlled.

  In addition, in the standby state, when the winning of the 42nd winning information or the 43rd winning information is instructed in the standby state, the sub-control CPU 41a navigates the operation order of the stop button for stopping and displaying the stop of the promotion replay. The display content of the effect display device 14 is controlled so as to execute the navigation effect. For example, in the standby state, when the winning of the 42nd winning information is instructed in the standby state, the sub-control CPU 41a executes the navigating effect of instructing to operate the stop button 23C first among the three stop buttons. The display contents of the effect display device 14 are controlled. Then, in the standby state, when a winning prize at the stop of the promotion replay is instructed in the standby state, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control to shift from the standby effect state to the advantageous effect state.

Next, control contents in the advantageous effect state will be described.
In the advantageous effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a counts the number of executions of the variable game performed in the advantageous effect state in the sub-control RAM 41c. When shifting from the standby effect state to the advantageous effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the number of advantageous stays in the sub-control RAM 41c. Then, the sub-controlling CPU 41a subtracts (−1) from the number of advantageous stays each time the variable game is performed in the advantageous effect state, and updates the number until the number reaches “0 (zero)”.

  In addition, in the advantageous effect state, when the number of advantageous stays is not “0 (zero)”, the sub control CPU 41a is instructed to win any one of the forty-sixth to forty-sixth winning information. In this case, the display content of the effect display device 14 is controlled so as to execute a navigation effect for navigating the operation order of the stop button for stopping and displaying the normal replay stop point. On the other hand, in the advantageous effect state, when the number of advantageous stays is “0 (zero)”, the sub control CPU 41a instructs the winning of any one of the forty-sixth to forty-sixth winning information. In this case, the navigation effect for navigating the operation sequence of the stop button for stopping the normal replay stop is not executed.

  That is, when the number of advantageous stays is “0 (zero)”, the operation order of the stop button for stopping and displaying the normal replay stop eye is navigated at least as compared with at least when the number of advantageous stays is not “0 (zero)”. Opportunities to perform a navigating staging are reduced.

  Then, in the advantageous effect state, when the number of advantageous stays is “0 (zero)” and the prize of the stop of the fall replay is instructed in the advantageous effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the transition from the advantageous effect state to the normal effect state. I do. By the way, in the advantageous effect state, when the winning prize of the stop of replay replay is instructed when the number of advantageous stays is not “0 (zero)” in the advantageous effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a continuously controls the advantageous effect state.

  In addition, in the advantageous effect state, when the winning of any one of the 32nd winning information to the 34th winning information is instructed in the advantageous effect state, the stop button for stopping and displaying the bell stop is displayed. The display content of the effect display device 14 is controlled so as to execute a navigation effect for navigating the operation sequence of the operation.

  In addition, when the winning of the 42nd winning information or the 43rd winning information is instructed in the advantageous effect state, the sub-controlling CPU 41a navigates the operation order of the stop button for stopping and displaying the stop of the promotion replay. The display contents of the effect display device 14 are controlled so as to execute the navi effect.

  In the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, a bonus granting lottery for determining whether to grant a privilege may be performed when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The bonus granting lottery in the present embodiment is different from the chance shift lottery and the advantageous shift lottery described above.

  In the bonus granting lottery according to the present embodiment, the selection (determination) of which of the first privilege and the second privilege to grant is performed together with the determination of whether to grant the privilege. Incidentally, the first privilege in the present embodiment is determined to be a transition to the chance effect state. In the second privilege in the present embodiment, the transition to the advantageous effect state is determined. As described above, in the present embodiment, the first privilege is the same as the privilege given when winning the chance shift lottery, and the second privilege is the same as the privilege given when winning the advantage shift lottery. It is the same.

  Then, in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, in the normal effect state, a bonus granting lottery is performed when a predetermined condition is satisfied. Further, in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, the greater the specific number of times when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the higher the probability of determining the grant of the privilege. In the slot machine 10, the bonus granting lottery is not necessarily performed when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and the bonus granting lottery may not be performed when the specific number of times is small.

  In addition, the situation where the privilege granting lottery is not performed corresponds to a rate at which the granting of the privilege is determined in the privilege granting lottery is a rate indicating that the privilege granting is not determined. Incidentally, even if the bonus granting lottery is performed, if the probability of determining the granting of the privilege in the bonus granting lottery is “0%”, the same phenomenon as when the privilege granting lottery is not performed will occur. Therefore, not only in the situation where the privilege granting lottery is not performed, but also in the situation where the probability that the privilege is decided to be granted in the privilege granting lottery is “0%”, the rate in which the privilege granting is decided in the privilege granting lottery Is a ratio indicating that the grant of the privilege is not determined.

  In the present embodiment, the effect display device 14 performs a specific number notification effect of notifying a specific number of times. Then, the player can grasp the current specific number of times based on the effect contents of the specific number notification effect. Incidentally, the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment is configured to be able to count a specific number up to “21”.

Hereinafter, based on FIGS. 6 (a) to 6 (d), a description will be given of the production mode of the specific number notification production effect.
As shown in FIG. 6A, in the normal effect state, the effect display device 14 displays a count notification image KG. The counting notification image KG includes seven unit images TG1 to TG7. When the specific number is “0 to 7”, the count notification image KG is displayed in the first display state.

  When the specific number of times is “0 (zero)”, all the unit images TG1 to TG7 are displayed in the first display mode. When the specific number of times is "1 to 7", the unit images TG1 to TG7 of the count notification image KG displayed in the first display state are displayed in the second display mode according to the specific number of times.

  As shown in FIG. 6B, for example, when the specific number is “4”, four unit images TG1 among the unit images TG1 to TG7 of the count notification image KG displayed in the first display state. To TG4 are displayed in the second display mode, while the remaining unit images TG5 to TG7 are displayed in the first display mode.

  As shown in FIG. 6C, when the specific number of times exceeds “8”, the count notification image KG is displayed in the second display state. At the same time, the display mode of the unit images TG1 to TG7 of the count notification image KG displayed in the second display state changes according to the specific number of times. In the present embodiment, when the specific number of times increases from "7" to "8", the count notification image KG is displayed by switching from the first display state to the second display state, and the unit image TG1 is displayed in the second display state. The remaining unit images TG2 to TG7 are displayed in the first display mode in the same display mode, and the fact that the specific number of times is “8” is notified.

  Note that when the count notification image KG is displayed in the second display state, the count notification image KG is displayed using a wider display area than when the count notification image KG is displayed in the first display state. You. Therefore, when the count notification image KG is switched from the first display state to the second display state, it is possible to make it appear as if the possibility that a privilege is given increases as the specific number of times increases.

  Incidentally, although the details will be described later, in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, when the specific number is “less than 8”, there is no possibility that the privilege is given according to the specific number, but the specific number is “ When the number is "8 or more", there is a possibility that a privilege is given according to a specific number of times. Therefore, by switching from the first display state to the second display state and displaying the count notification image KG, the privilege is not likely to be given according to the specific number of times. Can be effectively notified that the state has been switched to a state in which is likely to be given.

When the specific number of times is “14”, the count notification image KG is displayed in the second display state, and all the unit images TG1 to TG7 are displayed in the second display mode.
As shown in FIG. 6D, when the specific number of times exceeds “14”, the count notification image KG is displayed in the second display state, while the unit images TG1 to TG7 of the count notification image KG are displayed. Changes the display mode according to the specific number of times. In the present embodiment, when the specific number of times increases from "14" to "15", the count notification image is displayed in the second display state, and the unit images TG1 to TG7 displayed in the second display mode are displayed. The unit image TG1 is displayed in the third display mode to notify that the specific number of times is “15”.

  Incidentally, although the details will be described later, in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, if the specific number of times does not reach “15”, the privilege may not be given, but the specific number of times reaches “15”. Eliminates the possibility that no benefits will be granted. Therefore, by displaying at least a part of the unit images TG1 to TG7 of the count notification image KG displayed in the second display state in the third display mode, the privilege may not be given according to the specific number of times. It can be effectively notified that the situation has been switched from a certain situation to a situation where there is no possibility that the privilege will not be granted according to the specific number of times.

  The situation where the unit image is displayed in the first display mode is a situation where the unit image is displayed in gray. Further, the situation in which the unit image is displayed in the second display mode is a situation in which the unit image is displayed in blue. The situation in which the unit image is displayed in the third display mode is a situation in which the unit image is displayed in red. That is, by switching the display mode of the unit image, the color of the unit image changes.

  The specific number of times in the present embodiment includes the number of times the display of the single bonus stop corresponding to the special display result is permitted, that is, the number of times the single bonus winning information is won. Then, in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, when an event in which the display of the single bonus stop eye is permitted occurs, the specific number of times increases by one.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the predetermined condition serving as an opportunity for the bonus awarding lottery can be established when a symbol combination other than a single spill is displayed on the winning line NL. That is, the predetermined condition may be satisfied when one of the symbol combinations of the cherry stop, the watermelon stop, the bell stop, and the replay stop is displayed on the winning line NL. In addition, the predetermined condition may be satisfied when one of the symbol combinations of the spilled cherry, the spilled watermelon, the spilled bell, and the outlier is displayed on the winning line NL. In the present embodiment, the predetermined condition is not established when the single bonus stop is displayed on the pay line NL, but the predetermined condition is not satisfied when the single bonus stop is displayed on the pay line NL. May be established.

  For this reason, the specific number of times in the present embodiment corresponds to the number of times that the display of the single bonus stop corresponding to the special display result is continuously allowed. In addition, even if the display of the single bonus stop is permitted, the present embodiment is considered in view of the fact that the predetermined condition is satisfied when the single bonus stop is displayed on the pay line NL (the result display section). Can be said to be the number of times a single spilled eye is continuously displayed on the winning line NL.

  Here, based on FIG. 7, according to the specific number of times when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the probability (ratio) that the first privilege is granted and the probability (ratio) that the second privilege is granted are the first. This will be described together with the probability (ratio) that at least one of the privilege and the second privilege is given. In the drawings, the probability that the first privilege is granted is referred to as “first privilege grant rate”, the probability that the second privilege is granted is referred to as “second privilege grant rate”, and the first privilege is referred to as “first privilege grant rate”. The probability that at least one of the second benefits is provided (hereinafter, simply referred to as “probability of providing a benefit”) is referred to as “total benefit providing rate”.

  As shown in FIG. 7, when the specific number of times is “0 (zero) to 7”, the lottery for giving the privilege is not performed. Therefore, the probability that the privilege is given is “0%”. Then, when the specific number of times reaches “8”, there is a possibility that the grant of the privilege is determined. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the specific number “8” corresponding to the number of times the possibility that the privilege is given according to the specific number corresponds to the privilege allowable number.

  When the specific number of times is “8 to 10”, there is a possibility that the grant of the first privilege is determined, but there is no possibility that the grant of the second privilege is determined. Is more likely to be determined. Then, when the specific number of times reaches “11”, the grant of the second privilege may be determined.

  When the specific number of times is “11 to 14”, there is a possibility that the privilege is not granted. However, as the specific number of times increases, the probability of determining the granting of the first privilege and the granting of the second privilege are increased. Any of the determined probabilities will be higher. Then, when the specific number of times reaches “15”, the grant of the privilege is always determined, and there is no possibility that the privilege is not granted. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the specific number of times “15” corresponding to the number of times that the privilege is always provided according to the specific number of times corresponds to the number of times of giving.

  In addition, when the specific number of times is “15 to 18”, the probability that the second privilege is determined to be given does not exceed the probability that the first privilege is determined to be determined, but the first number increases as the specific number increases. The probability of determining the grant of the second privilege is lower while the probability of determining the grant of the second privilege is higher than the first privilege.

  Thereafter, after the specific number of times reaches “19”, the probability that the grant of the second privilege is determined exceeds the probability that the grant of the first privilege is determined, and the larger the specific number is, the more the first number is determined. The probability of determining the grant of the privilege is reduced, while the probability of determining the grant of the second privilege, which is more advantageous than the first privilege, is increased. Then, when the specific number of times has reached “21” corresponding to the upper limit number, the grant of the second privilege that is more advantageous than the first privilege is always determined.

Hereinafter, control related to determination of grant of a privilege based on a specific number of times will be described.
The sub control CPU 41a counts a specific number of times in the sub control RAM 41c. In the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, the specific number of times is increased and updated each time an event to be counted a specific number of times occurs until a predetermined condition is satisfied. In the present embodiment, the specific number of times between when the power is turned on and when the first predetermined condition is satisfied, and the specific number of times between when the predetermined condition is satisfied and when the next predetermined condition is satisfied are: Counted.

  When the winning of the single bonus winning information is instructed, that is, when the display of the single bonus stop eye is permitted, the sub-controlling CPU 41a adds “1” to the specific number of times stored in the sub-controlling RAM 41c.

  When the display of the single bonus stop is not permitted, that is, when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the sub-control CPU 41a refers to the specific number of times in the sub-control RAM 41c, and according to the specific number of times, the privilege-giving lottery. I do.

  As shown in FIG. 7, for example, when the specific number is “12”, the sub-control CPU 41 a grants the first privilege with a probability of 60% in the privilege granting lottery, and grants the first privilege with a probability of 6%. It is determined that the privilege 2 is to be granted and that the privilege is not to be granted with a remaining 34% probability.

  When the predetermined condition is satisfied, the sub-control CPU 41a performs the privilege-giving lottery, and determines the probability of granting the privilege according to the specific number of times referred to when performing the privilege-giving lottery when the predetermined condition is satisfied. To a probability equal to or less than the probability that the award of the privilege is determined.

  Specifically, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the specific number stored in the sub-control RAM 41c to “0 (zero)”, and initializes the counted specific number. Thereby, the probability (ratio) that the privilege is given according to the specific number of times is initialized. For example, if the specified number of times is initialized when the counted number is “12”, the specified number becomes “0 (zero)”, and the probability that the privilege is given is “12”. "From" 66% "to" 0% "when the specific number of times is" 0 (zero) ". That is, the specific number of times is initialized to “0 (zero)”, and the probability that the privilege is given is initialized to “0%”.

  Note that the sub-control CPU 41a restarts counting the specific number of times until the predetermined condition is satisfied again after performing the privilege addition lottery and initializing the specific number of times and the probability of providing the privilege according to the specific number of times. In other words, after the probability that the privilege is granted becomes equal to or less than the probability that the privilege is determined according to the specific number of times referred to when performing the privilege granting lottery when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the probability is determined again. As the number of times increases, the probability (ratio) of giving the privilege increases.

  Further, when the sub-control CPU 41a determines the provision of the first privilege in the privilege provision lottery, the sub-control CPU 41a stores the chance shift information in the sub-control RAM 41c. In addition, when the sub-control CPU 41a determines the grant of the second privilege in the privilege grant lottery, stores the advantageous transition information in the sub-control RAM 41c. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the award of a privilege is determined by the award of a specific number of times according to the specific number of times, the chance shift information and the advantageous shift information are stored, so that the chance that is more advantageous than the normal effect state is obtained. The sub-controlling CPU 41a that shifts to the effect state or the standby state (later to the advantageous effect state) and gives a privilege functions as a privilege giving means.

  In addition, in the normal effect state, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the display content of the effect display device 14 so as to notify the specific number counted in the sub-control RAM 41c by the specific number notification effect. The sub control CPU 41a controls the display state of the count notification image KG and the display mode of the unit images TG1 to TG7, and controls the display content of the effect display device 14 so as to notify the specific number of times by the specific notification effect. .

Next, control related to a specific number of times in the power-off processing and the power-on processing will be described.
In the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a also stores and holds a specific number of times stored in the sub-control RAM 41c in the power-off process.

Then, if the setting unit 28 is not operated when the power is turned on, the sub-control CPU 41a returns the specific number of times stored and retained to the sub-control RAM 41c.
In other words, if the setting unit 28 is not operated when the power is turned on, the sub-control CPU 41a starts the predetermined number of times after the power is turned on, and the sub-control CPU 41 a The number of times obtained by adding the specified number of times from when the power is turned on to when the first predetermined condition is satisfied is set as the specified number, and the bonus granting lottery is performed according to the specified number. For example, if the setting device 28 is not operated when the power is turned on, “6” is stored and held as the specific number, and the first predetermined condition is satisfied after the power is turned on. When the specific number of times is “7”, the sub-controlling CPU 41a performs a bonus-giving lottery according to the specific number of times “13 (= 6 + 7)”. By the way, the “specific number of times from when the power is turned on until the first predetermined condition is satisfied” is a single bonus corresponding to the special display result at least from when the power is turned on until the first predetermined condition is satisfied. This includes the number of times the display of the stop eye is allowed.

  On the other hand, if the setting unit 28 is operated when the power is turned on, the sub-control CPU 41a randomly determines a value to be stored as a specific number of times in the sub-control RAM 41c when the power is turned on. When the value to be stored as the specific number is determined by lottery, the sub-control CPU 41a stores the value as the specific number in the sub-control RAM 41c. Incidentally, when the setting unit 28 is operated when the power is turned on, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the value to be stored as the specific number of times from among the values for which the privilege is not given according to the specific number of times. Lottery.

  In other words, if the setting device 28 is operated when the power is turned on, the sub-control CPU 41a performs a lottery when the power is turned on when the first predetermined condition is satisfied after the power is turned on. The number of times obtained by adding the specific number of times from when the power is turned on to the determined specific number of times until the first predetermined condition is satisfied is set as the specific number of times, and the bonus granting lottery is performed according to the specific number of times. For example, if the setting unit 28 is operated when the power is turned on, the specific number determined by lottery when the power is turned on is “6”, and the first predetermined condition after the power is turned on is set. Is satisfied, the sub-controlling CPU 41a performs a bonus-giving lottery in accordance with the specific number of times "13 (= 6 + 7)".

  In addition, the sub-controlling CPU 41a reports a specific number of times from when the power is turned on until the first predetermined condition is satisfied until the first predetermined condition is satisfied after the power is turned on. The display content of the effect display device 14 is controlled so as to notify the user. At this time, regardless of whether the setting unit 28 is operated when the power is turned on and the specific number of times actually stored in the sub-control RAM 41c, the sub-control CPU 41a operates after the power is turned on. The display content of the effect display device 14 is controlled such that the specific number of times until the first predetermined condition is satisfied is notified by the specific number notification effect. That is, when the power is turned on, regardless of whether or not the setting unit 28 is operated when the power is turned on and the specific number of times actually stored in the sub-control RAM 41c, the specific number of times notification effect is performed. The specific number notified first is “0 (zero)”. Therefore, from the time when the power is turned on to the time when the first predetermined condition is satisfied, the specific number notified in the specific number notification effect may be different from the specific number actually stored. As described above, until the first predetermined condition is satisfied irrespective of whether or not the setting device 28 has been operated, the specific number of times notified in the specific number notification effect is the same. It is difficult to guess whether or not it is based on the specific number of times notified in the specific number notification effect.

  In the present embodiment, when the power is turned on, the specific number of times stored and held in the sub-control RAM 41c when the setting device 28 as the setting instruction unit is not operated when the power is turned on is set as the power is turned on. This corresponds to the initial number of times to be obtained. In addition, in the present embodiment, the specific number of times determined by lottery in the sub control CPU 41a when the setting unit 28 is operated when the power is turned on is set to the initial number of times that can be set with the power on. Equivalent to.

Here, with reference to FIG. 8, a description will be given of a change in the specific number of times and a change in the probability (ratio) of the privilege being given according to the specific number of times in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 8, in the normal effect state and the specific number of times is “9”, when the single bonus winning information is won, that is, when the display of the single bonus stop is allowed, the specific number of times The number increases by “1”, and the specific number of times increases from “9” to “10”. When the stop button is operated at the single bonus non-stop timing in the variable game won in the single bonus winning information, the single spilled eye is stopped and displayed on the winning line NL.

  Further, in the next fluctuation game, when the single bonus winning information is won again, the specific number is further increased from “10” to “11”. This switches from a situation where the second privilege cannot be granted according to the specific number of times to a situation where the second privilege can be granted according to the specific number of times. When the stop button is operated at the single bonus stop timing in the fluctuation game, the single bonus stop is stopped and displayed on the winning line NL. As a result, a single bonus game is provided, and the next variable game is controlled by the special variable game.

  In the next variable game (the variable game in the single bonus game), the single bonus winning information is not won, so that the display of the single bonus stop eye is not allowed and the specific number of times does not increase. .

  Then, in the variable game in the single bonus game, when the 31st winning information is won and the bell stop is stopped and displayed on the winning line NL, the predetermined condition is satisfied, and the privilege is provided according to the specific number of times “11”. An award lottery is performed. In this specific grant lottery, it is determined that the first privilege is given with a probability of 49%, the second privilege is given with a probability of 1%, and the privilege is not given with a probability of 50%.

  At this time, when it is determined not to give the privilege, the normal effect state continues. On the other hand, when it is determined that the first privilege is to be provided, the normal production state is shifted to the chance production state. When it is determined that the second privilege is provided, the normal production state is changed to the advantageous production state. Transition to the state.

  In addition, the specific number of times is initialized when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and the specific number of times changes from “11” to “0 (zero)”. Along with this, the probability that the privilege is given according to the specific number of times is initialized, so that the probability that the privilege is given according to the specific number of times becomes “0%”. At this time, when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the probability that the privilege is granted according to the specific number of times when the predetermined condition is satisfied is set to “0%” which is equal to or less than “50%”, and the privilege according to the specific number of times. Is given (the probability of giving a privilege is reduced according to a specific number of times).

  When the normal production state is continued after the specific number of times has been initialized, if the display of the single bonus stop is continuously allowed in the variable game and the single spilled number is continuously displayed, the specific number of times will be reduced again. As the number increases (increases), the probability that the privilege is given according to the specific number of times increases.

As described above, this embodiment has the following effects.
(1) Between the time when the predetermined condition is satisfied and the time when the next predetermined condition is satisfied, the privilege is provided at a rate corresponding to the specific number of times including the number of times the display of the single bonus stop eye corresponding to the special display result is permitted. Granted. Further, the greater the specific number of times, the higher the rate at which the privilege is given. For this reason, a game can be enjoyed while paying attention to how much the specific number increases (increases) between the time when the predetermined condition is satisfied and the time when the predetermined condition is next satisfied.

  In addition, when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the rate at which the privilege is provided becomes equal to or less than the rate at which the privilege is provided when the predetermined condition is satisfied. For this reason, it is possible to repeatedly entertain each time a predetermined condition is satisfied, with a gaming property that increases a sense of expectation that the privilege is given by increasing the specific number of times.

  In addition, the number of specific bonuses increases in a situation where there is a possibility that a single bonus will be given by allowing the display of the single bonus stop eye (the possibility that the next fluctuating game will be controlled by a special fluctuating game). While expecting the possibility that a bonus game will be given, it is possible to entertain a change in the rate at which the giving of the privilege is determined.

  (2) In the case where the grant is determined at a rate corresponding to the specific number each time the specific number increases, for example, the privilege is granted according to the specific number until the specific number reaches the predetermined number. It is necessary to set the rate at which the privilege is given when the specific number of times is a predetermined number of times in consideration of the rate of giving. In such a configuration, there is a risk that it is difficult to quickly and accurately develop the gaming machine, and the ratio setting in which the privilege is granted in a situation where the number of specific times is small must be set to an extremely low value. The degree of freedom may be impaired.

  However, when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number of times is set to be equal to or less than the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number of times when the predetermined condition is satisfied. Thus, it is not necessary to consider the rate at which the privilege is given according to the specific number of times until the specific number reaches the predetermined number. For this reason, it is possible to easily set the rate at which the privilege is given when the specific number of times reaches the predetermined number, and it is possible to quickly and accurately develop a gaming machine.

  In addition, since it is not necessary to consider the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number until the specific number reaches the predetermined number, it is not necessary to set the rate at which the privilege is granted when the specific number is small. . As a result, it is possible to set the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number so that the privilege can be sufficiently provided even in a situation where the number of specific times is small, and the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number of times. The degree of freedom of setting is also expanded, and it is easy to improve the interest.

  (3) The specified number of times is the number of times that the display of the single bonus stop is continuously allowed. In addition, when a single bonus stop corresponding to the special display result is displayed on the winning line NL and a single bonus game is awarded, a variable game performed in the single bonus game (a variable game controlled by the special variable game). , The display of the single bonus stop eye is not allowed.

  Therefore, when the single bonus stop is displayed, the counting of the specific number of times ends. Accordingly, in a situation where a single bonus stop can be displayed, by not continuing to display the single bonus stop, a specific number of times is increased, and the rate at which the privilege is awarded is increased. You can entertain.

  (4) The predetermined condition may be satisfied by a symbol combination different from the single spilled eye corresponding to the non-special display result being stopped and displayed on the pay line NL (result display unit). Thereby, the player can enjoy the game while paying attention to how much the specific number of times increases until a symbol combination different from the single spilled eye is stopped and displayed on the winning line NL.

  (5) After the specific number of times reaches a predetermined number (for example, “11” or “18”), the second privilege with a higher degree of advantage than before the predetermined number of times is easily provided. Therefore, until the predetermined condition is satisfied, the game can be enjoyed while increasing the expectation that the specific number of times increases and the privilege with a high degree of advantage is provided.

  (6) When the power is turned on, when the setting of the gaming machine is changed, the specific number of times stored and held is initialized, while when the setting of the gaming machine is not changed, the stored number is held. In the case of the specification in which the specific number of times is restored, there is a possibility that it is possible to specify whether or not the setting of the gaming machine has been changed only by grasping whether or not the specific number of times has been initialized.

  However, when the setting device 28 is operated when the power is turned on, the value set as the specific number of times is first determined by lottery to determine whether or not the setting of the gaming machine has been changed. Can be difficult to identify. Thereby, it is possible to provide a pleasure of estimating the setting of the gaming machine, and it is also possible to suppress a situation in which a change in the setting of the gaming machine causes a decrease in interest.

  By the way, "a situation in which a change in the setting of a gaming machine causes a decrease in interest" means a situation in which the setting of the gaming machine before the change in the setting of the gaming machine is a setting advantageous to the player. In this case, when it is specified that the setting of the gaming machine has been changed, it is assumed that the user is guessed that the setting has been changed to an unfavorable setting, thereby causing a decrease in interest.

  (7) Until the specific number of times reaches “8” corresponding to the permissible number of benefits, no privilege is given according to the specific number of times. On the other hand, after the specific number of times reaches “8”, there is a possibility that a privilege is given according to the specific number of times. For this reason, it is possible to enjoy the game by paying attention to whether or not the specific number of times reaches “8”.

  (8) When the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information is won, that is, when the display of the stop of the cherry or the stop of the watermelon is permitted, a predetermined condition can be satisfied, and a chance transfer lottery or an advantageous transfer. Lottery is also held. By the way, when the chance shift lottery is won, the same privilege as when the first privilege is given is given, and when the advantage shift lottery is won, the second benefit is given. The same benefits as at the time will be given.

  For this reason, even when the predetermined condition is satisfied, a person who wins the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information is provided with a privilege than when the other winning information or the like is won. Expectations of things increase. Therefore, even when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the game is made to pay attention to the winning information which triggers the satisfaction of the predetermined condition, that is, the type of the display result (the type of the predetermined condition) permitted to be displayed. Can be entertained.

  (9) After the specific number reaches “15” corresponding to the number of grants, the grant of the privilege is always determined according to the specific number when the predetermined condition is satisfied. Furthermore, after the specific number of times reaches “15”, while the specific number increases, the rate at which the first privilege corresponding to the privilege with a low degree of advantage is determined is low, while the specific number increases, the advantage increases. The rate at which the grant of the second privilege corresponding to the higher privilege is determined becomes higher. Therefore, it is possible to entertain the game by paying attention to the fact that the specific number of times approaches “15” corresponding to the number of times of giving.

  (10) The symbol combination that can be displayed in the winning information lottery when the single bonus game is performed (when the variable game is controlled by the special variable game) is not the single bonus game (when the variable game is the special variable game). At least a part is different from the symbol combination that can be displayed in the winning information lottery when not controlled by the game). Thereby, when the game is a single bonus game, a fluctuating game different from that when the game is not a single bonus game is easily executed. For this reason, the game can be changed by becoming a single bonus game, and the interest in the game can be suppressed while the interest in the game is improved. Therefore, the player can be entertained for a long period of time, and the interest can be effectively improved.

  (11) As the specific number of times increases, the count notification image KG switches from the first display state to the second display state, and the count notification image KG is displayed using a wide display area. For this reason, it becomes easy to recognize that the rate at which the privilege is provided has greatly changed, such as an increase in the possibility that the privilege is provided with an increase in the specific number of times.

  (12) When the specific number of times increases from the number of times that there is no possibility that a privilege is given according to the specific number of times to the number of times that there is a possibility that a privilege is given according to the specific number of times, the count notification image KG Is switched from the first display state to the second display state. By switching the display state from the first display state to the second display state and displaying the count notification image KG in this manner, the situation where there is no possibility that a privilege is given in accordance with the specific number of times, Thus, it can be effectively notified that the state has been switched to a state where a privilege may be given.

  (13) In the second display state, when the specific number of times increases from the number of times that the privilege may not be provided according to the specific number of times to the number of times that the benefit cannot be provided according to the specific number of times. At least a part of the unit images TG1 to TG7 of the displayed count notification image KG is displayed in the third display mode, and the display mode of the count notification image KG is changed. As described above, by displaying at least a part of the unit images TG1 to TG7 of the count notification image KG displayed in the second display state in the third display mode, the privilege is not given according to the specific number of times. It is possible to effectively notify that the situation has been switched from a possible situation to a situation in which the privilege is not likely to be granted according to the specific number of times (the privilege is always granted).

(2nd Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the gaming machine will be described with reference to FIGS. The same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment, and detailed descriptions and drawings are omitted.

  In the second embodiment, unlike the first embodiment, the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery are performed under a winning probability according to the type of the symbol combination (display result) permitted to be displayed and the specific number of times. In the second embodiment, the “prize for chance shift lottery” is the rate at which the first privilege is given, and the “prize for lottery shift lottery” is the rate at which the second privilege is given. In the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a capable of performing the chance shift lottery and the advantageous shift lottery and determining the grant of the privilege functions as a privilege determining means. As described above, in the present embodiment, when deciding to grant a privilege, the type of the privilege (the first privilege or the second privilege) is also determined.

  In the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery, when the display of the cherry stop eye is allowed by winning the eleventh winning information and when the display of the watermelon stop eye is allowed by winning the twenty-first winning information Done in

  In the present embodiment, winning the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information, that is, permitting the display of the stop of the cherry or the stop of the watermelon is equivalent to establishment of the grantable condition. In the present embodiment, winning the eleventh winning information corresponds to the establishment of the first grantable condition, and winning the twenty-first winning information corresponds to the establishment of the second grantable condition. . Further, since the grantable condition is satisfied by permitting the display of the cherry stop and the watermelon stop, in this embodiment, the cherry stop and the watermelon stop correspond to the special display result, and the grantable condition is determined. The type corresponds to the type of the special display result.

  In the second embodiment, in a situation where the types of the symbol combinations permitted to be displayed are the same, the greater the specific number of times, the easier it is to determine the grant of the privilege. Further, in the second embodiment, when the display of a symbol combination having a low display permitted ratio is permitted under the same specific number of times, that is, when the type of the grantable condition having a low probability of being satisfied is satisfied, It is easier to determine the award of a privilege.

  By the way, in the second embodiment, “establishment of the type of grantable condition having a low probability of being established” corresponds to winning the eleventh winning information having a low winning probability compared to the twenty-first winning information. In other words, "establishment of a type of grantable condition having a high probability of establishment" corresponds to winning the 21st winning information having a higher winning probability than the eleventh winning information.

  Here, based on FIG. 9, when the grantable condition is satisfied, the probability that the first privilege is granted is determined according to the type of the grantable condition (the type of the symbol combination permitted to be displayed) and the specific number of times ( The ratio (ratio) and the probability (ratio) of the second privilege being granted will be described together with the probability (ratio of granting) of at least one of the first privilege and the second privilege.

  As shown in FIG. 9, when the specific number is “0 (zero) to 7”, the chance shift lottery and the advantageous shift lottery are performed at a normal winning probability regardless of the specific number. By the way, when the specific number of times is "0 (zero) to 7" and the eleventh winning information is won, the chance shifting lottery is won with a probability of 10%, and the advantageous shifting lottery with a probability of 5%. Win. Further, when the specific number of times is “0 (zero) to 7” and the 21st winning information is won, the advantage transfer lottery is won with a probability of 8%, and the advantageous transfer lottery with a probability of 2%. Win.

  In the case of winning the eleventh winning information, when the specific number of times is “8 to 14”, there is a possibility that the privilege is not provided. However, as the specific number of times increases, the provision of the first benefit is determined. Both the probability that the second privilege is given and the probability that the second privilege is given are increased. In the case of winning the 21st winning information, when the specific number of times is “8 to 16”, there is a possibility that the privilege may not be provided, but the granting of the first privilege is determined as the specific number of times increases. Both the probability that the second privilege is given and the probability that the second privilege is given are increased.

  As described above, the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery are performed under the normal winning probability until the specific number reaches “8”, but when the specific number reaches “8”, the winning probability is higher than the normal winning probability. The chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery are performed under the probability. At this time, the count notification image KG displayed on the effect display device 14 switches from the first display state to the second display state. Therefore, when the count notification image KG is switched from the first display state to the second display state, it is grasped that the rate at which the privilege is provided has increased from the normal rate to a rate higher than the normal rate. It becomes possible.

  Further, when winning the eleventh winning information, if the specific number of times has reached “15”, the grant of the privilege is always determined, and there is no possibility that the privilege is not granted. On the other hand, when the 21st winning information is won, if the specific number has reached “17”, the grant of the privilege is always determined, and the possibility that the privilege is not granted is eliminated. As described above, in the case of winning the eleventh winning information having a low winning probability as compared with the twenty-first winning information, the specific number of times that the award of the privilege is always determined is smaller. In the present embodiment, the specific number “15” when winning the eleventh winning information corresponds to the number of grants, and the specific number “17” when winning the 21st winning information corresponds to the number of grants.

  In the case of winning the eleventh winning information, when the specific number of times is “15, 16”, the probability of determining the grant of the second privilege does not exceed the probability of determining the grant of the first privilege. However, the greater the specific number of times, the lower the probability of determining the grant of the first privilege, and the higher the probability of determining the grant of the second privilege, which is more advantageous than the first privilege. In the case of winning the 21st winning information, when the specific number of times is “17, 18”, the probability that the grant of the second privilege is determined does not exceed the probability that the grant of the first privilege is determined. However, the greater the specific number of times, the lower the probability of determining the grant of the first privilege, and the higher the probability of determining the grant of the second privilege, which is more advantageous than the first privilege.

  In the case of winning the eleventh winning information, when the specific number of times is “17, 18”, the probability that the grant of the second privilege is determined exceeds the probability that the grant of the first privilege is determined, and The greater the number of specific times, the lower the probability of determining the grant of the first privilege, while the higher the probability of determining the grant of the second privilege, which is more advantageous than the first privilege. In the case of winning the 21st winning information, when the specific number of times is “19, 20”, the probability that the grant of the second privilege is determined exceeds the probability that the grant of the first privilege is determined, and The greater the number of specific times, the lower the probability of determining the grant of the first privilege, while the higher the probability of determining the grant of the second privilege, which is more advantageous than the first privilege.

  In the case of winning the eleventh winning information, when the specific number of times reaches “19”, the grant of the second privilege which is more advantageous than the first privilege is always determined. On the other hand, when the 21st winning information is won, when the specific number of times reaches “21”, the grant of the second benefit that is more advantageous than the first benefit is always determined. As described above, in the case of winning the eleventh winning information having a lower winning probability than the twenty-first winning information, the specific number of times that the second privilege is determined to be given is always smaller.

  In addition, when the specific number of times is “8 to 19”, the probability of determining whether to grant the first privilege or the second privilege in the case of winning the eleventh winning information is that the specific number of times is “10 to 21”. Is the same as the probability of determining whether to grant the first privilege or the second privilege when the 21st winning information is won. For example, when winning the eleventh winning information when the specific number of times is “10”, the first probability is the same probability as when winning the 21st winning information when the specific number of times is “12”. Of the second privilege or the second privilege is determined. With this configuration, it is easy to grasp the difference (advantage) between the value of winning the eleventh winning information and the value of winning the twenty-first winning information. By the way, in the present embodiment, when the eleventh winning information is won, the award of the privilege is determined with the same probability as the situation where the specific number of times is “2” greater than the case of winning the twenty-first winning information. .

Hereinafter, the control related to the determination of the grant of the privilege according to the type of the granted grantable condition and the specific number of times will be described.
Until the grantable condition is satisfied, the sub-controlling CPU 41a increases and updates the specific number of times each time an event to be counted a specific number of times occurs. The sub control CPU 41a refers to the specific number of times of the sub control RAM 41c when it is instructed that the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information is won, that is, when the grantable condition is satisfied, A process (chance transfer lottery or advantageous transfer lottery) for determining the grant of the privilege according to the specific number of times is performed.

  As shown in FIG. 9, for example, when the winning of the eleventh winning information is instructed when the specific number of times is “12”, the sub control CPU 41 a gives the first privilege with a probability of 56%. That is, it is determined that the second privilege is given with a probability of 10% and that the privilege is not given with a probability of 34%. On the other hand, if the winning of the 21st winning information is instructed when the specific number of times is “12”, the sub-controlling CPU 41a grants the first privilege with a 33% probability, and has a 7% probability. It is determined that the second privilege is to be granted and that the privilege is not to be granted with a probability of 60%.

  When the grantable condition is satisfied, the sub-controlling CPU 41a performs a chance transfer lottery and an advantageous transfer lottery, and initializes a specific number of times. As a result, the winning probability of the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery is initialized to the normal winning probability.

  In addition, when the sub-control CPU 41a wins the chance shift lottery, the sub-control RAM 41c stores chance shift information indicating that the shift to the chance effect state has been determined. When the sub-control CPU 41a wins the advantageous transition lottery, the secondary control RAM 41c stores the advantageous transition information indicating that the transition to the advantageous effect state is determined. In the present embodiment, when the chance transfer lottery or the advantageous transfer lottery is won under the winning probability according to the type of the grantable condition that has been established and the specific number of times, the chance transfer information and the advantageous transfer information are stored and the privilege is given. The sub-controlling CPU 41a functions as a privilege giving unit.

  Here, based on FIG. 10, the change of the specific number of times in the slot machine 10 of the present embodiment, the type of the symbol combination permitted to be displayed (the type of the grantable condition), and the rate at which the privilege is awarded according to the specific number of times. And changes will be described. In FIG. 10, when the display of the single bonus stop eye is permitted, the stop button is operated at the single bonus non-stop timing, and the single spilled eye is displayed.

  As shown in FIG. 10, in the normal effect state and the specific number of times is “9”, when the single bonus winning information is won and the display of the single bonus stop is allowed, the specific number of times is “1”. The specific number increases from “9” to “10”. As a result, the winning probability of the chance shift lottery when the display of the cherry stop is allowed is increased from 13% to 33%, and the winning probability of the advantageous shift lottery remains at 7%. In addition, when the display of the watermelon stop eye is permitted, the winning probability of the chance shift lottery increases from 10% to 13%, and the winning probability of the advantageous shift lottery increases from 5% to 7%.

  In addition, in the next fluctuating game, when the display of the single bonus stop eye is permitted again, the specific number further increases from “10” to “11”. As a result, the probability of winning the chance transfer lottery when the display of the cherry stop is permitted is increased from 33% to 42%, and the probability of winning the advantageous transfer lottery is raised from 7% to 8%. In addition, when the display of the watermelon stop eye is permitted, the winning probability of the chance shift lottery increases from 13% to 23%, and the winning probability of the advantageous shift lottery remains at 7%.

  Further, in the next fluctuating game, when the display of the single bonus stop eye is permitted, the specific number increases from “11” to “12”. As a result, the winning probability of the chance shift lottery when the display of the cherry stop is permitted is increased from 42% to 56%, and the winning probability of the advantageous shift lottery is increased from 8% to 10%. In addition, when the display of the stop of the watermelon is permitted, the winning probability of the chance shift lottery increases from 23% to 33%, and the winning probability of the advantageous shift lottery remains at 7%.

  Thereafter, in the next fluctuating game, when the display of the single bonus stop eye is permitted again, the specific number further increases from “12” to “13”. As a result, the winning probability of the chance transfer lottery when the display of the cherry stop is permitted is increased from 56% to 65%, and the winning probability of the advantageous transfer lottery is raised from 10% to 15%. In addition, the chance of winning the chance shift lottery when the display of the watermelon stop eye is permitted increases from 33% to 42%, and the winning probability of the advantageous shift lottery increases from 7% to 8%.

  In addition, in any of the fluctuation games shown in FIG. 10, when the display of the stop of the cherry or the stop of the watermelon is permitted, the winning probability of the chance transfer lottery when the display of the stop of the cherry is permitted is 10%, which is advantageous. The winning probability of the transfer lottery is 5%, the winning probability of the chance transfer lottery when the display of the watermelon stop eye is permitted is 8%, and the winning probability of the advantageous transfer lottery is 2%.

As described in detail below, this embodiment has the following effects in addition to the effects (3), (6), (10), and (11) of the first embodiment.
(14) With the establishment of the grantable condition as an opportunity, the grant of the privilege is determined at a ratio according to the type of the satisfied grantable condition and the specific number of times. For this reason, the game can be enjoyed by not only focusing on whether or not the grantable condition is satisfied, but also focusing on the type of the grantable condition and the specific number of times when the grantable condition is satisfied.

  Further, the specific number of times includes at least the number of times that the display of the single bonus stop eye corresponding to the special display result is permitted. With this, it is possible to notice whether or not the display of the bell stop is allowed, and how the specific number of times changes and the rate at which the award of the privilege is determined changes. We can pay attention and entertain the game.

  In addition, the number of specific bonuses increases in a situation where there is a possibility that a single bonus will be given by allowing the display of the single bonus stop eye (the possibility that the next fluctuating game will be controlled by a special fluctuating game). While expecting the possibility that a bonus game will be given, it is possible to entertain a change in the rate at which the giving of the privilege is determined.

  (15) Under the situation where the types of the grantable conditions are the same, the privilege is more likely to be granted as the specific number of times increases. Therefore, the game can be enjoyed while paying attention to an increase in the specific number of times until the grantable condition is satisfied.

  (16) Under the condition that the specific number of times is the same, the privilege is more likely to be granted as the type of the granting condition of the lower probability of establishment is satisfied. For this reason, when the grantable condition can be satisfied, the game can be enjoyed by expecting that a type of grantable condition having a lower probability of being satisfied is satisfied.

  (17) In addition to the grant of the privilege, the type of the privilege when granting the privilege is determined at a rate corresponding to the type of the grantable condition and the specific number of times. Therefore, according to the type of the grantable condition that is satisfied and the specific number of times, not only the rate at which the privilege is granted, but also the determination rate of the privilege type (for example, the rate at which an advantageous privilege is granted). You can entertain the game.

  (18) In the case where the eleventh winning information is won and the grantable condition is satisfied, after the specific number reaches “15” corresponding to the number of grants, the specific condition is satisfied and the specific number of times is satisfied. Grants are always granted. On the other hand, in the case where the awarding condition is established by winning the 21st winning information, after the specific number reaches “17” corresponding to the awarding number, the privilege is provided according to the specific number when the predetermined condition is satisfied. Is always determined. As described above, by making the number of times corresponding to the number of grants different depending on the type of the grantable condition that is established, first, after paying attention to the fact that the specific number of times reaches a small number of grants, the grantable condition of another type is further reduced. The game can be enjoyed by paying attention to the fact that the specific number of times has been reached in the case of being established.

  (19) The grantable condition can be satisfied by permitting display of a cherry stop or a watermelon stop corresponding to a special display result determined from a display result in which a prize is determined. As described above, in the case where the award is determined in a situation where the symbol combination in which the award is determined can be displayed, in the situation where the award is provided, the award is provided together with the award in the situation where the award is provided. The interest of the player can be effectively improved. Further, even in a situation where a privilege is not given, it is possible to suppress a decrease in interest due to the award being given.

  (20) For example, when the specific number of times is “12” (first number of times), when the eleventh winning information is won and the first grantable condition is satisfied, the rate at which the privilege is determined to be granted, and When the specific number of times is "14" (the second number of times greater than the first number of times), when the 21st winning information is won and the second grantable condition is satisfied, the rate at which the grant of the privilege is determined is determined. , Were identical. In this way, by setting the same rate as the rate at which the privilege is determined when the different specific number of times and the different grantable condition are satisfied, the rate at which the common privilege is determined can be easily set. it can. At the same time, the relationship of the degree of advantage based on the relationship between the type of the grantable condition to be satisfied and the specific number of times is not complicated, so that the player can easily grasp the relationship of the degree of advantage and enjoy the game.

  (21) When the grantable condition is satisfied, the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number of times is set to a rate equal to or less than the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number of times when the grantable condition is satisfied. With this configuration, it is not necessary to consider the rate at which the privilege is given according to the specific number of times until the specific number of times reaches the predetermined number. For this reason, it is possible to easily set the rate at which the privilege is given when the specific number of times reaches the predetermined number, and it is possible to quickly and accurately develop a gaming machine. In addition, since it is not necessary to consider the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number until the specific number reaches the predetermined number, it is not necessary to set the rate at which the privilege is granted when the specific number is small. . As a result, it is possible to set the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number so that the privilege can be sufficiently provided even in a situation where the number of specific times is small, and the rate at which the privilege is granted according to the specific number of times. The degree of freedom of setting is also expanded, and it is easy to improve the interest.

  (22) The specific number of times increases from the number of times the chance transfer lottery or the advantageous transfer lottery is performed under the normal winning probability to the number of times the chance transfer lottery or the advantageous transfer lottery is performed with a higher probability than the normal win probability. At this time, the count notification image KG is switched from the first display state to the second display state, and the count notification image KG is displayed using a wide display area. As described above, by switching from the first display state to the second display state and displaying the count notification image KG, the chance shift lottery and the advantageous shift lottery are performed under a normal winning probability. It can be effectively notified that the situation has been switched to a situation in which the chance shift lottery and the advantageous shift lottery are performed with a winning probability higher than the winning probability of.

The above embodiment can be embodied in another embodiment (another example) as follows.
In the above embodiment, the first privilege in which the transition to the chance production state is determined to be more easily shifted to the advantageous production state which is more advantageous to the player than the normal production state, and the transition to the advantageous production state is determined. Only one of the two benefits may be determined as a benefit.

  -In the advantageous effect state of the above embodiment, the period of the advantageous effect state may be extended. That is, in the advantageous effect state, a so-called “addition” may be performed.

  -The privilege in the said embodiment is not restricted to a 1st privilege and a 2nd privilege. For example, the benefit may be that the period of the advantageous effect state that is advantageous to the player is extended or that the period of the advantageous effect state is easily extended. In addition, it is good also as the privilege that the period of the chance production state which is advantageous to the player is extended, and that the period of the chance production state is easily extended.

-It is not necessary to change the setting of the gaming machine in the above embodiment.
In the above-described embodiment, the configuration may be such that the storage contents of the sub-control RAM 41c can be stored and held when the power is turned off. That is, the storage contents of the sub-control RAM 41c may be initialized when the power is turned off.

  In the above embodiment, the stored specific number of times may be notified by the specific number notification effect even after the power is turned on until the first predetermined condition is satisfied. In this configuration, when the power is turned on, the specific number of times to be notified first in the specific number notification effect is a value at which the privilege can be given according to the specific number of times (when the setting device 28 is operated). If the setting device 28 is not operated, it can be grasped that the setting device 28 is not operated. In this way, by creating an opportunity (situation) in which it is possible to grasp that the setting device 28 has not been operated, it is possible to give a player the pleasure of selecting a slot machine for playing a game.

  In the above embodiment, even when the setting device 28 is operated when the power is turned on, the specific number of times stored and held in the sub control RAM 41c may be restored. Good. Even in the case of such a configuration, it is difficult to specify whether or not the setting of the gaming machine has been changed. In addition, when the setter 28 is operated when the power is turned on, a specific number of times may be initialized (“0 (zero)” is set).

  In the above embodiment, even when the setting device 28 is operated when the power is turned on, if the setting of the gaming machine is not changed, the setting is stored in the sub control RAM 41c. When the specific number of times is restored and the setting of the gaming machine is changed, a value stored as the specific number may be randomly selected.

  In the above-described embodiment, when the setting device 28 is operated when the power is turned on, a value to be stored as the specific number is randomly selected from the values to which the privilege can be given according to the specific number. You may. In addition, when the setting device 28 is operated when the power is turned on, the specific number of times is stored as a specific number from a value that can be given according to the specific number of times and a value that can be given according to the specific number of times. You may be comprised so that the value which performs may be drawn by lot.

  In the specific number of times in the above embodiment, one or both of the single bonus stop eye and the single spill eye are actually displayed (stop display) on the pay line NL after the display of the single bonus stop eye is allowed. May be the number of times.

  In the specific number of times in the above embodiment, display of a predetermined symbol combination (for example, a normal replay stop eye) determined from among symbol combinations in which a prize different from the single bonus stop eye corresponding to the special display result is determined is allowed. It may be configured to include the number of times performed. Then, the specific number of times may be the number of times that the event in which the display of the single bonus stop is permitted and the event in which the display of the predetermined symbol combination is permitted are consecutive. In this case, the game can be enjoyed by not only displaying the single bonus stop eye and the single spilled eye, but also noting whether or not the display of the predetermined symbol combination is allowed, and noting that they are continuous. Also, for example, when an event in which the display of a predetermined symbol combination is permitted occurs, the specific number of times increases by 1. On the other hand, when an event in which the display of the single bonus stop is permitted occurs, the specific number of times increases by 2. You may comprise so that it may increase. That is, the easiness of increase (or the difficulty of increase) of the specific number of times may be made different depending on the type of the display result for which display is permitted or the display result for which display is not permitted.

  The specific number of times in the above embodiment may be the number of times a single spilled eye different from the single bonus stop eye corresponding to the special display result is continuously allowed. In this case, the specific number of times does not increase when the single bonus stop is stopped and displayed on the pay line NL.

-In the said embodiment, it is not necessary to provide the upper limit which counts a specific number.
In the above-described embodiment, after the specific number of times reaches the number of grants, while the specific number increases, the rate at which the grant of the privilege with low advantage is determined is low, while the privilege increases as the specific number increases. It is not necessary to configure so that the rate at which the application is determined is increased.

  -In the said embodiment, you may comprise so that the ratio which a privilege may be provided may fall according to a specific number as a specific number increases. In such a configuration, it is possible to entertain the game under the gaming property that expects that the predetermined condition is satisfied early and that the chance of determining the grant of the privilege is high. In such a configuration, in the first embodiment, when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the privilege is provided at a rate corresponding to the specific number of times, and the privilege is provided at a rate equal to or greater than the rate at which the benefit is provided. Is increased, and as the specific number of times increases again, the ratio at which the privilege is added decreases.

  In the above-described embodiment, even if the configuration is not configured such that the privilege (second privilege) with a higher degree of advantage is more easily determined as the specific number of times increases, for example, the lower the number of times, the higher the degree of advantage You may comprise so that a privilege may be provided easily. In such a configuration, when the number of specific times is small, a privilege is given at a low rate but a privilege with a high degree of advantage is easily given. The player can be entertained under the gaming property in which a high privilege is hardly given.

-In the above embodiment, the permissible number of benefits and the number of grants may be changed as appropriate. However, it is preferable that the number of grants is determined by a number equal to or more than the number of permissible benefits.
In the above embodiment, a plurality of types of single bonus stops may be used, and a specific single bonus stop may be used as a special display result. At this time, the type of the single bonus stop to be determined as the specific single bonus stop may be one type or a plurality of types. Although the special display result is the single bonus stop, the special bonus may be the big bonus stop. In this case, the variable game performed in the big bonus game corresponds to a variable game controlled by the special variable game.

  -In the said 1st Embodiment, the ratio which a privilege is provided may change according to a specific number of times whenever a predetermined condition is materialized. For example, when the specific number of times is “10”, the privilege when the predetermined number of times that the predetermined condition is satisfied is “20 times” is better than when the number of times that the predetermined condition is satisfied is “10 times”. May be easily provided. In such a configuration, the specific number of times is initialized when the predetermined condition is satisfied, but the rate at which the privilege is granted is not initialized, and the rate at which the privilege is granted becomes the prescribed rate. Can be equivalent.

In the first embodiment, even when the specific number of times does not reach “8” corresponding to the permissible number of benefits, the configuration may be such that the grant of the privilege can be determined according to the specific number of times.
-In the said 1st Embodiment, you may change the trigger of satisfy | fill of a predetermined condition. For example, the timing of the satisfaction of the predetermined condition is not limited to the symbol combination stopped and displayed on the winning line NL (the result display section), but also the symbol combination permitted to be displayed, or the lapse of a predetermined period (time or the number of fluctuation games) May be determined by: In addition, you may change the kind of the symbol combination which becomes a trigger of establishment of a predetermined condition. For example, the configuration may be such that the predetermined condition is satisfied only when the stop of the replay is won. In such a configuration, when the cherry stop is won, the player can enjoy the game under the gaming property that the chance of further increasing the specific number continues although the specific number does not increase due to the winning. Here, as an example, the replay stop eye and the cherry stop eye are described, but other symbol combinations may be used. Naturally, it may be a symbol combination for which no prize is determined (for example, a missing edge or a spilled bell).

  -In the said 1st Embodiment, you may comprise so that a predetermined condition may be satisfied, when the display of the symbol combination used as a trigger of a predetermined condition being satisfied is permitted. That is, even if the symbol combination that triggers the satisfaction of the predetermined condition is not actually displayed, the configuration may be such that the predetermined condition can be satisfied only by permitting the display.

  In the first embodiment, if the specific number of times from the satisfaction of the predetermined condition to the satisfaction of the next predetermined condition can be specified, the counted number of times need not be initialized. Even when the sub-control RAM 41c is configured to continue counting the specified number of times even when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the value counted as the specified number of times when the predetermined condition is satisfied is stored. Next, the specific number of times from the satisfaction of the predetermined condition to the satisfaction of the next predetermined condition can be specified from the difference between the values counted as the specific number of times when the predetermined condition is satisfied.

  In the first embodiment, the first privilege may not be the same as the privilege granted when winning the chance transfer lottery, and the second privilege may be granted when winning the advantageous transition lottery. It does not need to be the same as the benefits.

  In the first embodiment, the predetermined condition may be established when the single bonus stop corresponding to the special display result is stopped and displayed on the pay line NL (the result display section). Further, even when the display of the single bonus stop is permitted, the specific number of times may not be increased when the single bonus stop is stopped and displayed on the pay line NL. In this case, the specific number of times corresponds to the number of times a single spilled eye different from the single bonus stop eye corresponding to the special display result is displayed.

  -In the said 1st Embodiment, you may comprise so that a chance transfer lottery and an advantageous transfer lottery may not be performed. Even in the case of such a configuration, it is possible to shift the effect state to a chance effect state or a standby state (later an advantageous effect state) by a bonus granting lottery.

  -In the said 1st Embodiment, you may comprise so that it may determine whether a privilege may be provided every time a specific number of times increases. That is, when the predetermined condition is satisfied, the privilege is granted at a rate corresponding to the specific number of times, and the rate at which the privilege is granted at a rate equal to or less than the rate at which the privilege is granted may not be set. .

  -In the said 1st Embodiment, you may comprise so that a privilege provision lottery may not be performed in the situation where a penalty is provided. Further, in a situation where a penalty is given, the specific number of times may not be increased or the specific number of times may not be easily increased.

  -In the said 1st Embodiment, the increase of a specific number of times and the bonus provision lottery according to the specific number of times may be performed in the production state other than the normal production state. Further, in the second embodiment, the process of determining the increase of the specific number of times or the award of the privilege according to the type of the applicable grantable condition and the specific number of times (chance transition lottery, advantageous transition lottery) is performed in the normal production state. It may be performed in an effect state other than the above. For example, if “extending the period of the advantageous effect state” is set as a privilege, in the advantageous effect state, the number of specific times increases, the lottery of awarding the privilege according to the specific number of times, the type of the granted grantable condition and the specific number of times. Even if a process of determining the grant of a privilege is performed in accordance with the above, it is difficult to give a sense of incongruity to the game characteristics, and it is possible to improve the interest in the advantageous effect state.

  In the second embodiment, if the specific number of times from the establishment of the grantable condition to the establishment of the next grantable condition can be specified, the counted number of times need not be initialized. Even when the sub-control RAM 41c is configured to continue counting the specific number of times even when the grantable condition is satisfied, the value counted as the specific number when the grantable condition is satisfied is stored. From the difference between the value and the value counted as the specific number of times when the next predetermined condition is satisfied, it is possible to specify the specific number of times from the satisfaction of the grantable condition to the satisfaction of the next grantable condition.

  In the second embodiment, the “prize grant lottery triggered by the satisfaction of the predetermined condition” in the first embodiment may or may not be performed. For example, in the second embodiment, when the “prize giving lottery triggered by the establishment of the predetermined condition” is performed, when the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information is won, both the grantable condition and the predetermined condition are satisfied. Although the condition is satisfied, only one of the conditions may be satisfied, or any of the conditions may be satisfied. In the second embodiment, when the bonus granting lottery is performed upon the satisfaction of the predetermined condition, the bonus granting lottery is performed according to a specific number of times from when the grantable condition or the predetermined condition is satisfied until the grantable condition or the predetermined condition is satisfied next. It may be configured to determine the grant of the privilege, or may be configured to count the specific number of times for each condition and determine the grant of the privilege according to the specific number of times corresponding to the established condition.

  For example, in a case where both the grantable condition and the predetermined condition are satisfied when winning the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information, other winning information such as the thirty-first winning information is won. If the player wins the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information, the possibility that the privilege is given increases. Therefore, as the specific number increases (increases), the degree of attention to winning the eleventh winning information or the twenty-first winning information can be further increased, and the interest can be improved.

  In the second embodiment, the type of the grantable condition may be changed. For example, a configuration may be made such that a chance transfer lottery or an advantageous transfer lottery is performed even when display of a specific replay stop eye among replay stop eyes is permitted, or in the case of loss. By configuring so that a chance shift lottery or an advantageous shift lottery is performed in the case of a loss, it is possible to entertain even in a situation where the player cannot normally enjoy, and it is possible to effectively enjoy the game. In other words, in a situation where it is difficult to improve the interest, it is possible to effectively enhance the enjoyment by improving the interest of the player.

  In the second embodiment, when the eleventh winning information is won, the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery are performed. On the other hand, when the twenty-first winning information is won, the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery are executed. It may be configured such that only one of them is performed. In addition, when the 21st winning information is won, the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery are performed. On the other hand, when the 11th winning information is won, only one of the chance transfer lottery and the advantageous transfer lottery is executed. It may be configured to be performed.

  In the second embodiment, under the situation where the types of the symbol combinations permitted to be displayed (the types of the grantable conditions) are the same, the grant of the privilege may be more easily determined as the specific number of times is smaller.

  In the second embodiment, each time the grantable condition is satisfied, the rate at which the privilege is granted may be changed according to the type of the grantable condition that is satisfied and the specific number of times. For example, when the specific number of times is “10”, when the eleventh winning information is won, the number of times that the grantable condition is satisfied is smaller than when the number of times that the grantable condition is satisfied is “10”. In the case of "20 times", a configuration may be made such that the privilege is more easily provided. In such a configuration, the specific number of times is initialized when the grantable condition is satisfied, but the rate at which the privilege is granted is not initialized, and the rate at which the privilege is granted becomes the prescribed rate. Can be equivalent to In addition, the case where the rate at which the privilege is granted is initialized and the case where the rate at which the privilege is granted is not initialized and becomes a prescribed rate may be separated according to the type of the grantable condition that is satisfied. . With this configuration, it is possible to further increase the degree of attention regarding the types of the grantable conditions that are satisfied.

  In the second embodiment, when the specific number of times is the same, when the display of the symbol combination having the high display permitted ratio is permitted, that is, as the type of the grantable condition having the high probability of being satisfied is satisfied, You may comprise so that grant of a privilege may be determined easily.

  -In the said 2nd Embodiment, the advantage of the privilege provided may be made different according to the kind of the grantable conditions which are satisfied. For example, when the eleventh winning information is won, the advantage shift lottery is performed under the winning probability according to the specific number of times to determine the grant of the second privilege, and when the twenty-first winning information is won, May be configured to determine a grant of the first privilege by performing a chance shift lottery under a winning probability according to a specific number of times.

  In the above embodiment, if the specific number is equal to or more than a specified number (for example, “0 (zero) or more” or “1 or more”), when the winning information is won from the 32nd winning information to the 34th winning information, the stop is performed. The configuration may be such that the button 23C or the stop button 23R is operated first. With this configuration, it is possible to make the player enjoy the game by expecting the player to increase the specific number of times without fear of being given a penalty.

  In the above-described embodiment, increasing the probability (frequency) of the navigation effect of navigating the operation of the stop button for displaying the bell stop when winning the 32nd winning information to the 34th winning information. Thus, it is possible to create an effect state that is advantageous for the player. Then, it may be determined that the transition to the effect state is determined, or that the transition to the effect state is selected by lot.

  In the above embodiment, a navigation effect for navigating the single bonus stop timing or a navigation effect for navigating the single bonus non-stop timing may be configured to be executable.

-The above embodiment may be embodied in a spinning-type gaming machine (slot machine) using a game ball (pachinko ball) as a game medium.
