The second big winning device 15D includes an operable VAT opening / closing member 15k. The VAT opening / closing member 15k normally blocks the second special winning opening 15, and it is impossible or extremely difficult for game balls to enter the second special winning opening 15. The VAT opening / closing member 15k can be in an open state. When the VAT opening / closing member 15k is in the open state, it is easy for game balls to enter the second big winning opening 15. On the other hand, the state in which the VAT opening / closing member 15k blocks the second special winning opening 15 is also referred to as a “closed state”. Thus, the second big winning opening 15 is opened and closed by the operation of the VAT opening and closing member 15k. When a game ball wins in the second special winning opening 15, a predetermined number (for example, 14) of game balls are paid out as a prize ball.

  Here, the second big winning device 15D will be described in detail with reference to FIG. Inside the second big winning device 15D, there is provided a gate-shaped second big winning port sensor 15a capable of detecting a game ball entering the second big winning opening 15 and passing the game ball downward. Have been.

  A specific area 16 and a non-specific area 17 through which a game ball can pass (enter) are provided in a downstream area of the second special winning opening sensor 15a. The game balls that have passed through the second special winning opening sensor 15a are sorted to the specific area 16 or the non-specific area 17 by the distribution device 16D. The distribution device 16D includes a distribution member 16k formed of a substantially rectangular flat plate, and a distribution solenoid 16s that drives the distribution member 16k. The distribution member 16k is configured to be slidable left and right by driving the distribution solenoid 16s.

  When the distribution solenoid 16s is not energized, the distribution member 16k is in a first state in which the game ball is prevented from passing to the specific area 16 (passage prevention state: the left end of the distribution member 16k in a front view of FIG. 3A). Is located slightly to the right of the left end of the specific area 16, and the distribution member 16k covers the specific area 16 immediately above. When the distribution member 16k is in the first state, the game ball that has won the second special winning opening 15 cannot or extremely cannot pass through the specific area 16 after passing through the second special winning opening sensor 15a. It is difficult and passes through the non-specific area 17. The route of the game ball flowing down from the second special winning opening 15 to the non-specific area 17 is referred to as a first route.

  On the other hand, when the distribution solenoid 16s is energized, the distribution member 16k is in the second state in which the game ball is allowed to pass (enter) the specific region 16 (passage permitted state: frontal view in FIG. 3B). The left end of the distribution member 16k is located slightly to the left of the right end of the specific area 16, and the distribution member 16k does not cover the specific area 16 immediately above, but is in a state where the upper area of the specific area 16 is open. When the distribution member 16k is in the second state, a game ball that has won the second special winning opening 15 can easily pass through the specific area 16 after passing through the second special winning opening sensor 15a. The route of the game ball flowing down from the second special winning opening 15 to the specific area 16 is referred to as a second route.

  Basically, the distribution member 16k is held in the first state. That is, it can be said that the first state is the normal state of the distribution member 16k. Then, only in a predetermined round game (for example, 16R), the distribution solenoid 16s is energized and can change to the second state.

  The specific area 16 and the non-specific area 17 are provided with a specific area sensor 16a and a non-specific area sensor 17a that detect a game ball passing through (entering) each of the areas 16 and 17 and pass the game ball downward. .

  In addition, it is possible to provide only one of the first big winning device 14D and the second big winning device 15D as long as the game is not hindered.

  At the lowermost portion of the game area 6, two out ports 19 are provided for discharging game balls that have been driven into the game area 6 but have not won any of the winning ports to the outside of the game area 6. I have. The game board 1 is provided with a board lamp 54 capable of emitting light.

  By the way, the game area 6 in which game balls can flow down can be divided into a left game area (first game area) on the left side from the center in the left-right direction and a right game area (second game area) on the right side. The operation mode of the handle 72k for firing the game ball so that the game ball flows down the left game area is referred to as “left hit”. On the other hand, the operation mode of the handle 72k for firing the game ball so that the game ball flows down the right game area is referred to as "right strike". In the pachinko gaming machine PY1, a flow path through which the game ball can flow down when the game ball is shot left is called a first flow path R1, and the game ball flows down when the game ball is shot right. A possible flow path is referred to as a second flow path R2. The first flow path R1 and the second flow path R2 are also constituted by a large number of game nails or the like.

  On the first flow path R1, a first starting port 11 and two general winning ports 10 are provided. Therefore, the player can aim at the first starting opening 11 or the general winning opening 10 by firing the game ball so as to flow down the first flow path R1 by left-handing. On the other hand, on the second flow path R2, a second starting port 12, a gate 13, a first winning port 14, and a second winning port 15 are provided. Therefore, the player fires the game ball so as to flow down the second flow path R2 by right-handing, thereby passing through the gate 13, the second starting port 12, the first winning port 14, or the second winning port 14. It is possible to aim for a prize in the grand prize opening 15.

  A game ball that has not entered any of the winning ports (the first starting port 11, the second starting port 12, the general winning port 10, the first large winning port 14, and the second large winning port 15) It is guided to the outlet 19 and discharged. In addition, the number of prize balls by winning a prize hole can be appropriately set.

  Indicators 8 are arranged on the left side below the game area 6 formed on the front surface of the game board 1 (a part other than the game area 6). As shown in FIG. 4, on the display 8, a special figure 1 display 81 a that variably displays the special figure 1, a special figure 2 display 81 b that variably displays the special figure 2, and a general figure are variably displayed. A general-purpose indicator 82 is included. The display 8 also includes a special figure 1 reservation display 83a that displays the special figure 1 reservation number (U1: the number of variable display of the special figure 1 held by the special figure 1 display 81a) described later. A special figure 2 reservation display 83b for displaying the special figure 2 reservation number (U2: the number of the special figure 2 variable display held by the special figure 2 display 81b) to be described later is included.

  The variable display of the special figure 1 is executed when the special figure 1 lottery is performed in response to the winning of the game ball to the first starting port 11. In addition, the variable display of the special figure 2 is executed when the special figure 2 lottery is performed in response to the winning of the game ball to the second starting port 12. In the following description, the special figures 1 and 2 are collectively referred to as a special figure, and the special figure 1 lottery and the special figure 2 lottery are collectively referred to as a special figure lottery. The special figure display 81a and the special figure 2 display 81b are collectively called the special figure display 81. Furthermore, the special figure 1 reservation display 83a and the special figure 2 reservation display 83b are collectively called a special figure reservation display 83.

  The variable display of the special figure notifies the result of the special figure lottery. In the variable display of the special figure, the special figure is variably displayed and then stopped. The special figure stopped and displayed (the special special figure derived and displayed as a display result of the variable special display) is one special figure selected from a plurality of kinds of special figures by a special figure lottery. When the stop special figure is a predetermined special special figure (a special figure of a specific stop mode, ie, a big hit symbol), the special winning opening (the first special winning opening 14 and the second special winning opening 15) is opened. A jackpot game (an example of a special game) is performed.

  The special figure display 81 is composed of, for example, eight LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) arranged side by side, and displays a special figure according to the result of the special figure lottery according to the lighting mode. For example, if the result of the special figure lottery is a jackpot (one of a plurality of types of jackpots described later), the special figure display 81 indicates “□□ ■■ □□ ■■” (□: lighting, ■ : Extinguished), and the big hit symbol constituted by the lighting of the first, second, fifth and sixth LEDs from the left is displayed. In addition, when the result of the special figure lottery is a loss, a loss pattern constituted by lighting only the rightmost LED, such as a special figure display 81 “■■■■■■■ □”, is displayed. I do. The lighting mode of the LED corresponding to the result of the special drawing lottery is not limited, and can be set as appropriate. Therefore, for example, all the LEDs may be turned off as a lost symbol.

  Further, in the variable display of the special figure, the variable display of the special figure is performed for a predetermined fluctuation time before the special figure is stopped and displayed. In the variable display mode of the special figure, for example, each LED is turned on so that light repeatedly flows from left to right. It should be noted that the form of the variable display of the special figure is not particularly limited, and may be appropriately set such that all the LEDs blink at once unless each LED is stopped (displayed in a specific manner).

  By the way, in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, when there is a prize (entering) of a game ball to the first starting port 11 or the second starting port 12, various random numbers (such as numerical information and judgment information) for performing a special drawing lottery and the like. Example) may be obtained. These various random numbers are temporarily stored in a special figure reservation storage unit 105 described later as special figure reservation. In the following, various random numbers acquired by winning (entering) game balls into the first starting port 11 are referred to as “special figure 1-related random numbers”, and winning of game balls into the second starting port 12. The various random numbers obtained by (entering the ball) are referred to as “special figure 2 related random numbers”. Here, the special figure 1 related random number is stored as special figure 1 reservation in the special figure 1 reservation storage unit 105a in the special figure reservation storage unit 105. On the other hand, the special figure 2 related random number is stored in the special figure 2 reservation storage unit 105b in the special figure reservation storage unit 105 as the special figure 2 reservation. The number of special figure 1 reservations that can be stored in the special figure 1 reservation storage unit 105a (number of special figure 1 reservations) and the number of special figure 2 reservations that can be stored in the special figure 2 reservation storage unit 105b (number of special figure 2 reservations) Can set an upper limit (for example, four). In the following, the special figure 1 reservation and the special figure 2 reservation are collectively referred to as “special figure reservation”, and the special figure 1 reservation number and the special figure 2 reservation number are collectively referred to as “special figure reservation number”. In addition, the special figure 1 related random number and the special figure 2 related random number are collectively referred to as “special figure related random number”.

  In the pachinko gaming machine PY1, if the special figure is not variably displayed immediately after the gaming ball has won the first starting port 11 or the second starting port 12, specifically, the variable display of the special figure is being executed. If a prize is awarded during the execution of the jackpot game, the variable display of a special map for the prize (or the right to special drawing lottery) can be reserved. The special figure reservation stored in the special figure reservation storage unit 105 is digested when it becomes possible to variably display the special figure based on the special figure reservation. In other words, the digestion of the special figure reservation means that a special figure relation random number or the like corresponding to the special figure reservation is determined and the variable display of the special figure for indicating the determination result is executed.

  Then, the special figure reservation number is displayed on the special figure reservation display 83. Each of the special figure 1 reservation display 83a and the special figure 2 reservation display 83b is composed of, for example, four LEDs, and the number of special figure reservations is displayed by lighting the LEDs for the number of special figure reservations. It is possible.

  In addition, the variable display of the general figure notifies the result of the general figure lottery. In the variable display of the general figure, the general figure is variably displayed and then stopped.

3. Next, main games played by the pachinko gaming machine PY1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

3-1. Games related to general maps First, games related to general maps will be described. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs a regular drawing lottery when the launched game ball passes through the gate 13. When the general drawing lottery is performed, a variable display of the general drawing (stop display after performing the variable display) is performed on the general figure display 82. Here, the stop-displayed general symbols include a hit symbol and a lost symbol. It should be noted that the lost symbol in the ordinary figure is also referred to as a "losed ordinary figure" in order to distinguish it from the lost symbol in the special figure described later. When the winning symbol is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is executed, and the game relating to the passage through the gate 13 ends. On the other hand, when the lost game is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is not performed and the game related to the passage through the gate 13 ends. Further, hereinafter, when a game ball passes through the gate 13 when the variable display of the normal figure or the auxiliary game is not performed, it is referred to as “establishment of the variable figure start condition”.

  The pachinko gaming machine PY1, when performing such a series of games (general drawing lottery, variable display of general drawing, auxiliary game), acquires general figure-related random numbers by satisfying general figure changing start conditions. As shown in FIG. 8A, the ordinary symbol related random numbers to be acquired include ordinary symbol random numbers. The normal symbol random number is a random number (judgment information) for making a hit judgment. Each random number has an appropriate range.

3-1-1. The hit determination is a determination for determining whether or not a hit has been made (whether or not to execute an auxiliary game) using one or a plurality of hit determination tables as shown in FIG. 9A. The hit determination table can be associated with a game state described later. That is, the gaming state includes a non-time reduction state and a time reduction state, and a hit determination table used in the non-time reduction state (non-time reduction hit determination table) and a hit determination table (non-time reduction And a hit determination table). In each of the hit determination tables, a determination value of a normal symbol random number (ordinary symbol random value) is assigned to a hit and a loss as a result of the hit determination. Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 checks the acquired normal symbol random numbers against the hit determination table to determine a hit or a loss. Then, based on the result of the hit determination, a general-figure variation pattern determination for variably displaying the general-figure is performed. When the result of the hit determination is a hit, basically, the hit symbol is stopped and displayed in the variable display of the ordinary figure. On the other hand, if the result of the hit determination is a loss, basically, the loss general figure is stopped and displayed in the variable display of the general figure. In addition, the winning probability can be changed as appropriate.

3-1-2. The general figure fluctuation pattern determination is a determination for determining the general figure fluctuation pattern using one or a plurality of general figure fluctuation pattern determination tables as shown in FIG. 9B. The general-figure variation pattern is identification information on predetermined items related to variable display of the general-purpose figure such as general-fluctuation time.

  The normal figure fluctuation pattern determination table can be associated with a game state. That is, as a general figure variation pattern determination table, a general figure variation pattern determination table (non-hour reduction general figure variation pattern determination table) used in a non-hour reduction state and a general figure variation pattern determination table ( Time-saving general-purpose variation pattern determination table).

  In each of the general figure fluctuation pattern determination tables, one general figure fluctuation pattern as a result of the general figure fluctuation pattern determination is stored for each general figure to be stopped. That is, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 can make the general-purpose variation time different between the non-time reduction state and the time reduction state. For example, in the non-time saving state, the variable display of the general figure when the general figure of the loss (loss general figure) is stopped and displayed is determined to be a general figure variation pattern in which the general figure variation time is, for example, 30 seconds, and Is determined to be a general-purpose variation pattern in which the general-purpose variation time is, for example, 30 seconds. Further, in the time saving state, the variable display of the general figure when the lost general figure is stopped and displayed is determined to be a general figure fluctuation pattern in which the general figure fluctuation time is, for example, 5 seconds, and the general pattern when the hit symbol is stopped and displayed. The variable display of the figure is determined to be a general figure fluctuation pattern in which the general figure fluctuation time is, for example, 5 seconds. The varieties of the varieties of the varieties of the varieties of the general figure, which are associated with the general figure variance patterns determined in this determination, are variably displayed on the general figure display 82. Further, these ordinary figure fluctuation times can be appropriately changed. In this way, by performing the hit determination and the general-figure variation pattern determination, the general-figure display 82 performs variable display of the general-figure.

3-1-3. Auxiliary Game The auxiliary game is executed when the winning symbol is stopped and displayed (derived) as a display result (a result of the general figure lottery) in a variable display of the general figure.

  The auxiliary game includes various elements such as an element constituting the auxiliary game (auxiliary game component), that is, the number of times the electric chew 12D opens, the opening time for each opening, and the like. Each of these elements is associated with a gaming state. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 controls an auxiliary game using one or a plurality of auxiliary game control tables as shown in FIG. 9C based on the game state. The auxiliary game control table is associated with a game state. Each auxiliary game control table stores auxiliary game components. In addition, the number of times of opening and the opening time of each of these elements can be appropriately changed.

  The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can make the opening time of the electric chew 12D different between the auxiliary game in the non-time reduction state and the auxiliary game in the time reduction state. For example, in the auxiliary game in the non-time-saving state, the electric chew 12D is opened for a first opening time (a time (for example, 0.08 seconds) in which it is difficult for the game ball to win the electric chew 12D). In the following, the auxiliary game in the non-time saving state is also referred to as “short opening auxiliary game”. In addition, in the auxiliary game in the time saving state, the electric chew 12D is played for a second opening time longer than the first opening time (a time (for example, 3.00 seconds) in which it is easy for the game ball to win the electric chew 12D). Open. In the following, the auxiliary game in the time saving state is also referred to as “long opening auxiliary game”.

3-2. Next, a game related to a special figure will be described. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs a special drawing 1 lottery when the launched game ball wins the first starting port 11. When the special figure 1 lottery is performed, the special figure 1 display 81a performs variable display (stop display after performing the variable display) of the special figure 1 and notifies the result of the special figure 1 lottery. Here, the special figure 1 stopped and displayed includes a big hit symbol and a lost symbol. That is, the result of the special figure 1 lottery includes a jackpot and a loss. When the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed, the big hit game is executed, a new game state is set, and the game based on the winning ends. On the other hand, when the losing symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is not performed, and the game based on the winning ends.

  Similarly, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 performs a special drawing 2 lottery when the launched game ball wins the second starting port 12. When the special figure 2 lottery is performed, the special figure 2 display 81b performs a variable display of the special figure 2 (stop display after performing the variable display) and notifies the result of the special figure 2 lottery. Here, the special figure 2 stopped and displayed includes a big hit symbol and a lost symbol. That is, the result of the special drawing 2 lottery includes a jackpot and a loss. When the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed, the big hit game is executed, a new game state is set, and the game based on the winning ends. On the other hand, when the losing symbol is stopped and displayed, the jackpot game is not performed, and the game based on the winning ends.

  In the following, a game ball winning in the first starting port 11 is referred to as “establishment of a first starting condition”, and a game ball winning in the second starting port 12 is referred to as “establishment of a second starting condition”. That. Further, "establishment of the first start condition" and "establishment of the second start condition" are collectively referred to as "establishment of the start condition". In addition, the lost symbol of the special symbol is also referred to as a “losing special symbol” in order to distinguish it from the above-mentioned ordinary symbol.

  In performing such a series of games (special figure lottery, special figure variable display, jackpot game, setting of game state), the pachinko gaming machine PY1 acquires a special figure related random number by establishing a start condition, Various decisions are made on random numbers. As shown in FIG. 8B, the special symbol related random numbers to be acquired include a special symbol random number (jackpot random number), a jackpot symbol type random number, a reach random number, and a special figure variation pattern random number. The special symbol random number is a random number for performing a jackpot determination. The jackpot symbol type random number is a random number for performing the jackpot symbol type determination. The reach random number is a random number for performing the reach determination. The special figure change pattern random number is a random number for performing a change pattern of a special symbol. Each random number has an appropriate range. Note that a random number may be referred to as determination information.

3-2-1. Jackpot determination The jackpot determination is a determination for determining whether or not a jackpot (whether to execute a jackpot game) using one or more jackpot determination tables as shown in FIG. The gaming state includes a normal probability state and a high probability state, and the jackpot determination table is associated with the normal probability state or the high probability state. That is, as the jackpot determination table, it is possible to distinguish between the jackpot determination table (normal probability jackpot determination table) used in the normal probability state and the jackpot determination table (high probability jackpot determination table) used in the high probability state. It is possible.

  In each of the jackpot determination tables, a determination value (special symbol random value) of a special symbol random number is assigned to a jackpot and a loss as a result of the jackpot determination. The pachinko gaming machine PY1 checks the obtained special symbol random number against the jackpot determination table to determine whether the hit is a jackpot or a loss. As shown in FIG. 10A, the special symbol random number determination value determined to be a big hit is set higher in the high probability big hit determination table than in the normal probability big hit determination table. In addition, the jackpot winning probability can be changed as appropriate.

3-2-2. Jackpot symbol type determination The jackpot symbol type determination is a type of the jackpot symbol (the jackpot symbol type) using one or more jackpot symbol type determination tables as shown in FIG. 10B when the result of the jackpot determination is a jackpot. ) Is determined. For each type of the big hit symbol, it is possible to associate the big hit content, in other words, the big hit component composed of the game privilege etc. given to the player.

  The jackpot symbol type determination table is associated with the type of the special symbol that is variably displayed, in other words, the type of the start-up opening where the prize winning that caused the jackpot symbol type determination (that generated the jackpot symbol type determination) was performed. Is possible. That is, as a jackpot symbol type determination table, a jackpot symbol type determination table (first jackpot symbol type determination table) used when performing variable display of special figure 1, and a jackpot used when performing variable display of special figure 2 It is possible to distinguish between the symbol type determination table (second jackpot symbol type determination table).

  There are a plurality of types of jackpot symbols, and in each of the jackpot symbol type determination tables, the determination value of the jackpot symbol type random number (the jackpot symbol type random value) is assigned to the jackpot symbol type that is the result of the jackpot symbol type determination. I have. Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 determines the type of the jackpot symbol by comparing the acquired jackpot symbol type random number with the jackpot symbol type determination table. Then, in the first big hit symbol type determination table and the second big hit symbol type determination table, the big hit symbol type random value is appropriately distributed to various big hit symbols. In addition, the distribution rate of the jackpot symbol type can be appropriately changed. The type of the big hit symbol can be increased or decreased as appropriate.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 10 (B), the distribution rate of the jackpot symbol type based on the jackpot symbol type determination for special figure 1 is set to 50% for jackpot symbol X and 50% for jackpot symbol Y. It is possible to set the distribution rate of the big hit symbol type by the big hit symbol type determination to 100% for the big hit symbol Z. In this way, the special figure 1 lottery performed when a game ball wins in the first starting port 11 and the special figure 2 lottery performed when a game ball wins in the second starting port 12, the swing of the jackpot symbol type. The fractions can be different.

3-2-3. Reach determination In the reach determination, when the result of the jackpot determination is a loss, using one or a plurality of reach determination tables as shown in FIG. This is a determination for determining whether

  The reach determination table can be associated with a game state. That is, a reach determination table (non-time reduction reach determination table) used in the non-time reduction state and a reach determination table (reach determination table for time reduction) used in the time reduction state are distinguished as the reach determination table. It is possible.

  In each reach determination table, the reach random number determination value (reach random number value) is assigned to "reach present (reach is generated)" and "reach no (reach is not generated)" which are the results of the reach determination. . Therefore, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 checks the obtained reach random number against the reach determination table to determine whether there is reach or not (whether or not to generate reach). As shown in FIG. 10 (C), the number of reach random numbers determined as “reach present (reach is generated)” can be made different between the non-time reduction reach determination table and the time reduction reach determination table. It is. In the following, "reach exists (generates a reach)", which is performed on the assumption that the result of the jackpot determination is "losing", is referred to as "reach has a loss" and "reach has no (does not generate a reach). )) Is sometimes called "losing without reach."

3-2-4. Special figure change The special figure change pattern is determined by using a change pattern determination table of one or more special symbols (a special figure change pattern determination table) as shown in FIGS. This is a determination for determining the (special figure change pattern), and is performed in both cases of the jackpot determination and the loss. The special figure change pattern is identification information for identifying predetermined items related to a special figure change time, an effect flow (effect contents) of a special figure change effect described later, and the like. It should be noted that the special figure change pattern can include identification information regarding the result of the jackpot determination and the result of the reach determination in addition to the special figure change time and the effect flow (effect contents) of the special figure change effect. As the special figure variation pattern, a plurality of types of special figure variation patterns each having different identification information can be used, and the number thereof can be appropriately changed.

  The special figure variation pattern determination table can be associated with the type of the special symbol to be variably displayed as the determination target, in other words, the type of the starting port where the winning based on the special figure variation pattern determination is performed. That is, as the special figure variation pattern determination table, a special figure variation pattern determination table (Special figure 1 variation pattern determination table: FIG. 11) used when performing the variable display of the special figure 1 and the variable display of the special figure 2 are performed. It can be distinguished from the special figure variation pattern determination table (Special figure 2 variation pattern determination table: FIG. 12) which is sometimes used.

  Each of the special figure variation pattern determination tables can be associated with a game state. That is, as the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table, a special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table (non-time saving special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table) used in the non-time saving state and a special figure 1 used in the time reduction state It is possible to distinguish between the fluctuation pattern determination table (the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for time saving). On the other hand, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table similarly used in the non-time saving state and the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table (non-time saving special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table) are used in the time reduction state. The special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table (the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for time reduction) can be distinguished.

  Further, each special figure fluctuation pattern determination table associated with the gaming state can be further associated with a jackpot determination result, a jackpot symbol type determination result, or a reach determination result. In other words, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for non-time saving and the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for non-time reduction have a big hit (for each big hit symbol type), a loss with reach, and a loss with no reach. Similarly, the time-saving special figure 1 variation pattern determination table and the time reduction special figure 2 variation pattern determination table also include, for example, a big hit (for each big hit symbol type), a loss with reach, and a loss with no reach.

  Furthermore, the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for each reachless loss can be associated with the special figure reservation number. For example, a special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for reachless loss, which is used when the special figure 1 reservation number (U1) is 0 to 2, and when the special figure 1 reservation number (U1) is 3 to 4 are used. It is possible to distinguish between the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern determination table for the loss without reach. Further, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for each reachless loss can be associated with the special figure reservation number. For example, the special figure 2 fluctuation pattern determination table for reachless loss used when the special figure 2 reservation number (U2) is 0 to 2 and when the special figure 2 reservation number (U2) is 3 to 4 are used. It is possible to distinguish between the special figure 2 variation pattern determination table for the loss without reach.

  Then, the special figure display 81 performs variable display of the special figure of the special figure fluctuation time according to the special figure fluctuation pattern determined in each special figure fluctuation pattern determination. Then, when the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed as a display result (the result of the special figure lottery) in the variable display of the special figure, the variable display of the next special figure is not immediately performed, and the big hit game is subsequently executed. You.

  In addition, each special figure variation pattern can be associated with an effect flow of a special figure variation effect as shown in the second column from the right of the tables in FIGS.

  In addition, as shown in the rightmost column of the tables of FIGS. 11 to 12, the special figure change pattern may be given a name in association with the special figure (big hit determination result) and the effect contents of the special figure change effect. is there. For example, a special figure change pattern related to a jackpot is referred to as a “jackpot change”. On the other hand, the special figure variation pattern in which SP reach, which is a type of reach, is performed in the loss with reach is referred to as “SP loss variation”, and the L-reach, which is a type of reach, is performed in the loss with reach. The figure fluctuation pattern is referred to as "L loss fluctuation", and among the losses with reach, the special figure fluctuation pattern in which the special figure fluctuation production ends at N-reach, which is a type of reach, is referred to as "N loss fluctuation" and loss without reach. Such a special figure fluctuation pattern is called “normal loss fluctuation”.

3-2-5. Read-ahead determination The pachinko gaming machine PY1 makes a read-ahead determination using one or a plurality of look-ahead determination tables as shown in FIG. 13 based on the acquired special figure-related random numbers. The pre-reading determination includes, for example, determining whether or not the special symbol random number is determined to be a big hit in the jackpot determination, determining which jackpot symbol type is determined by the jackpot symbol type determination, There is a determination as to which special figure variation pattern the figure variation pattern random number is determined in the special figure variation pattern determination. The look-ahead determination table can be associated with the type of starting port related to the starting winning. That is, as the pre-reading determination table, a pre-reading determination table when the first starting port 11 is won (first pre-reading determination table), a pre-reading determination table when the second starting port 12 is won (the second pre-reading determination table), , Can be distinguished.

  Further, the look-ahead determination table can be associated with a game state. That is, as the look-ahead determination table, a look-ahead determination table (non-time-saving look-ahead determination table) used in the non-time-saving state and a look-ahead determination table (time-saving time look-ahead determination table) used in the time-saving state are distinguished. It is possible.

  That is, the look-ahead determination table includes a first look-ahead determination table used in a non-time-saving state, a first look-ahead determination table used in a time-saving state, and a second look-ahead determination table used in a non-time-saving state. And the second look-ahead determination table used in the time saving state. Note that what kind of judgment is included in the pre-reading judgment can be appropriately changed.

3-3. Next, the jackpot game will be described. The jackpot game includes a plurality of round games with opening and closing of a special winning opening (the first special winning opening 14 or the second special winning opening 15) and a round from the start of the big hit game to the start of the first round game. An opening (also referred to as OP) and an ending (also referred to as ED) from the end of the last round game to the end of the jackpot game are included. Each round game starts when the opening game ends or the previous round game ends, and ends when the next round game starts or the ending starts. Further, it is possible not to provide the OP or the ED. In the following, a predetermined number of round games (predetermined order) are simply referred to as “rounds”. For example, the first (first) round game is called “1 round (1R)”, and the tenth round game is called “10 round (10R)”.

  Elements constituting such a jackpot game (jackpot game components) include the number of round games, the number of times a large winning port (the first large winning port 14 or the second large winning port 15) is opened in each round game, Includes the type and opening time (opening pattern) of the special winning opening in which each opening is performed, the time to close until the next opening (closing time), the opening time (opening time), and the ending time (ending time). ing. After the special figure is stopped and displayed, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 controls the big hit game using one or more big hit game control tables as shown in FIG. The big hit game control table stores big hit game components for each big hit game. As the jackpot game, one or more types of jackpot games can be controlled.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 14, from 1R to 15R, a round game in which the first special winning opening 14 opens for a maximum of 29.5 seconds, or a first special winning opening 14 for a maximum of 0.1 seconds. A round game to open is performed. In the 16R (final round), a round game in which the second special winning opening 15 is opened for a maximum of 29.5 seconds, or a round game in which the second special winning opening 15 is opened for a maximum of 0.1 seconds is performed. Done. In addition, in each round game, when a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls is detected by the special winning opening sensor, even before the maximum opening time of the special winning openings 14 and 15 elapses, End the round game.

  Also, the number and time of each element can be changed as appropriate. In addition, the jackpot game can be played using both the first big winning opening 14 and the second big winning opening 15 or using only one of them.

  Here, the specific area 16 will be described in detail. The specific region 16 is set in a closed state in which no prize can be won and an open state in which a prize can be won by the distribution member 16k. Hereinafter, the operation mode of the distribution member 16k is also referred to as “opening / closing mode of the specific area 16”. As described above, the distribution member 16k is controlled in a fixed operation mode (the specific area 16 is fixed in the open / close mode). In combination with the opening / closing mode of the second big winning opening 15 in the jackpot game, the difficulty (easiness) of making the game ball enter the specific area 16 in the jackpot game is set. Hereinafter, the state where the specific region 16 is in the open state is also referred to as “V open”.

  The distribution solenoid 16s is energized for 15 seconds after the opening of the second special winning opening is started, and the distribution member 16k is controlled to the second state (FIG. 3B). Therefore, in the round game in which the second special winning opening 15 is opened for a maximum of 29.5 seconds, the opening time and the timing of the second special winning opening 15 and the time and the time when the distribution member 16k is controlled to the second state. From the relation with the timing, it is easy for the game ball to pass through the specific area 16 (to allow the game ball to enter the specific area 16). On the other hand, in the round game in which the second special winning opening 15 is opened for a maximum of 0.1 second, the opening time and timing of the second special winning opening 15 and the time and the time when the distributing member 16k is controlled to the second state are set. From the relationship with the timing, it is almost impossible (difficult) for the game ball to pass through the specific area 16 (enter the game ball into the specific area 16). As described above, the jackpot game includes a VAT opening / closing member in the first opening pattern (V long opening pattern) in which the passing of the specific area 16 of the game ball (hereinafter, also referred to as “V passing”) is easy during the jackpot game. The VAT opening / closing member 15k and the distribution member 16k operate in the jackpot game in which the 15k and the distribution member 16k operate and in the second opening pattern (V short opening pattern) in which it is impossible or difficult for the game ball to pass through the specific area 16. It is possible to execute a jackpot game. In this manner, the big hit game in which the VAT opening / closing member 15k and the distribution member 16k operate in the V long opening pattern is referred to as “V long big hit”. On the other hand, the big hit game in which the VAT opening / closing member 15k and the distribution member 16k operate in the V short open pattern is referred to as "V short big hit".

3-4. Game state Next, the game state will be described. As shown in FIG. 15, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 has a “low-probability low-base gaming state”, a “low-probability high-base gaming state”, a “high-probability low-base gaming state”, a “high-probability high-base gaming state”, and a “high-probability high-base gaming state”. It is possible to set any of the gaming states of the "big hit gaming state". Note that the “low-probability low-base game state” is “low-probability low-base state”, the “low-probability high-base game state” is “low-probability-high-base state”, and the “high-probability low-base game state” is “high-probability”. The “low base state” and the “high-probability high-base gaming state” can be abbreviated to the “high-probability high-base state”, respectively. The states that constitute the gaming state include a state related to the probability of being determined to be "big hit" in the jackpot determination and a state related to the ease of opening the electric chew 12D. The former includes a normal probability state and a high probability state. On the other hand, the latter includes a non-time saving state and a time saving state.

  The normal probability state is set in the “low-probability low-base gaming state” or the “low-probability high-base gaming state”, and is a state in which the probability of being determined as a big hit in the big hit determination is a normal probability. The high-probability state is set in the “high-probability low-base gaming state” or the “high-probability high-base gaming state”, and is a state in which the probability of being determined as a big hit in the jackpot determination is higher than the normal probability. Therefore, it can be said that the high probability state is a state more advantageous to the player than the normal probability state. When the power is turned on for the first time in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, a normal probability state is set. Then, it becomes possible to switch from the normal probability state to the high probability state by winning the jackpot. For example, it is possible to switch to a high-probability state when a game ball passes through the specific area 16 in a jackpot game. It is also possible to switch to the high probability state depending on the type of the big hit symbol. The high-probability state can be switched from the high-probability state to the normal-probability state by performing a predetermined number of jackpot determinations without winning the jackpot or by winning the next jackpot.

  The non-time saving state is set in a “low-probability low-base gaming state”, a “high-probability low-base gaming state”, or a “big hit gaming state”. The time-saving state is set in the “low-probability high-base gaming state” or the “high-probability high-base gaming state”, and is a gaming state in which the opening time of the electric chew 12D in one auxiliary game is likely to be longer than in the non-time-saving state. It is. For example, in the time saving state, the opening time (for example, 3.00 seconds) is longer than the opening time (for example, 0.08 seconds) of the electric chew 12D in the non-time saving state. In addition, in the time saving state, the special figure variation pattern determination is performed using a special figure variation pattern determination table that is determined so that the special figure variation pattern having a short special figure variation time is selected more than in the non-time saving state. It is also possible to perform this (see FIGS. 11 to 12). As a result, in the time-saving state, the pace of digestion of the special figure reservation is increased, and an effective prize (a prize that can be stored as the special figure reservation) at the starting port is likely to occur. Therefore, it is possible to aim for a jackpot with a smooth progress of the game.

  In addition, the time reduction state can easily make the normal figure fluctuation time shorter than the non-time reduction state. For example, in the time reduction state, a general figure fluctuation time (5 seconds) shorter than the general figure fluctuation time (30 seconds) determined in the non-time reduction state is determined. Therefore, in the time reduction state, the number of executions of the general drawing lottery per unit time is larger.

  Further, the time reduction state can be more easily determined as a hit in the hit determination as compared to the non-time reduction state. For example, in the time-saving state, the hit is determined with a higher probability (for example, 59936/65536) than the probability (for example, 6600/65536) in the non-time-saving state. Therefore, the number of times in the time reduction state that a hit is determined in the hit determination per unit time is larger.

  In this manner, in the time reduction state, the opening time of the electric chew 12D per unit time is longer than in the non-time reduction state, and the game balls can easily enter the second starting port 12 more frequently. As a result, the base, which is the ratio of the number of award balls to the number of launch balls, increases. For this reason, in a time-saving state in which the base is high, it is possible to aim for a jackpot winning without greatly reducing the number of game balls possessed. Therefore, it can be said that the time reduction state is more advantageous to the player than the non-time reduction state.

  When power is turned on for the first time in the pachinko gaming machine PY1, a non-time saving state is set. Then, for example, by winning a jackpot, the time saving state can be set. The time saving state can be changed from the time saving state to the non-time saving state by performing a predetermined number of jackpot determinations without winning the jackpot or by winning the next jackpot.

  In the time reduction state, it is easier to win a hit, the fluctuating time tends to be shorter, and the opening time of the electric chew 12D in one auxiliary game tends to be longer than in the non-time reduction state. The game related to the ordinary figure is set to be advantageous to the player in three points. However, the points set advantageously for the player may be some of them.

  The gaming state after power-on for the first time in the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is a “low-probability low-base gaming state” in which a normal probability state and a non-time saving state are set. This gaming state is also referred to as a “normal gaming state”. In the "big hit game state", the hit determination is performed but the big hit determination is not performed, so that the non-time saving state is set with the start of the big hit game. As for the game state, it is possible to use all or a part of the above-mentioned game states.

4. Next, main effects performed by the pachinko game machine PY1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

4-1. Production Mode First, the production mode will be described. The production mode is a division of production (or a high-level concept attribute). The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can set a customer waiting effect mode, a normal effect mode, a positive change effect mode, a time-saving effect mode, and a big hit effect mode as effect modes.

  In the customer waiting effect mode, special figure fluctuation effects are performed in “low-probability low-base game state”, “low-probability high-base game state”, “high-probability low-base game state”, and “high-probability high-base game state”. This is an effect mode that can be set when there is no effect, and indicates a standby state in which the special figure fluctuation effect is not performed. The customer waiting effect is performed when the customer waiting effect mode is set. In the customer waiting effect, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (A-1), a customer waiting demonstration video G100 introducing the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is displayed on the display unit 50a. When the normal button 40 is operated while the customer waiting demonstration movie G100 is displayed, as shown in FIG. 16 (A-2), a setting screen G101 for performing settings related to the effect of the pachinko gaming machine PY1. Is displayed. The settings related to the effects include the volume setting of the sound output from the speaker 52, the brightness setting of the display unit 50a (“light amount setting”), and the frequency setting of the effect to be executed (“effect setting”).

  The normal effect mode can be set when the special figure fluctuation effect is performed in the “low-probability low-base game state” or the “high-probability low-base game state”, and is an effect mode indicating a non-time saving state. is there. In the normal effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B-1), a first normal effect mode in which a background image (daytime normal background image G102) representing a daytime mountain scenery is displayed on the display unit 50a. As shown in FIG. 16 (B-2), a second normal effect mode in which a background image (evening normal background image G103) representing a mountain scenery in the evening is displayed on display unit 50a, and FIG. As shown in -3), there is a third normal effect mode in which a background image (nighttime background image G104) representing the nighttime mountain scenery is displayed on the display unit 50a. One or a plurality of special figure fluctuation effects are switched as one condition. Further, in each of the first to third normal effect modes, there are a normal first stage effect mode before reach is established and a normal second stage effect mode after reach is established in the special figure fluctuation effect. In the normal first stage effect mode, any of the daytime normal background image G102, the evening normal background image G103, and the nighttime normal background image G104 is displayed on the display unit 50a. The corresponding dedicated background image is displayed. Further, a special effect mode that is set only in the “high-probability low-base gaming state” may be provided.

  The certain variation effect mode is an effect mode that can be set when the special figure variation effect is performed in the “high-probability high-base gaming state”, and is an effect mode indicating that the game is in the high-probability state and the time-saving state. In the certainty effect mode, for example, as shown in FIG. 16 (B-4), a background image representing the universe (a certainty background image G105) is displayed on the display unit 50a. Further, in the probable variation production mode, there are a probabilistic first stage production mode before reach is established and a probable later stage production mode after reach is established in the special figure variation production. In the first stage effect mode, the display unit 50a displays the background image G105 for the second stage. In the second stage mode, a dedicated background image corresponding to the type of the reach is displayed.

  The time-saving effect mode is an effect mode that can be set when the special figure fluctuation effect is performed in the “low-probability high-base game state”, and is an effect mode indicating that the game is in the normal probability state and the time-saving state. In the time reduction effect mode, for example, as illustrated in FIG. 16B-5, a background image (time reduction background image G106) representing the sky is displayed on the display unit 50a. Further, in the time reduction effect mode, in the special figure variation effect, there are a time reduction first stage effect mode before the reach is established, and a time reduction second stage effect mode after the reach is established. In the early hours reduction mode, the time-saving background image G106 is displayed on the display unit 50a. In the later hours reduction mode, a dedicated background image corresponding to the type of reach is displayed.

  The jackpot effect mode is an effect mode that can be set when a jackpot game is being performed in the “big hit game state”, and is an effect mode indicating that a jackpot game is being performed. In the jackpot effect mode, for example, during the opening of the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16 (C-1), on the display unit 50a, an opening image G107 indicating the start of the jackpot game or a right to promote “right-hand” is displayed. A jackpot opening effect in which the hit image G108 is displayed is performed. During the round in the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16 (C-2), a round image G109 indicating the number of rounds and a prize ball number image G110 indicating the number of paid prize balls are displayed on the display unit 50a. A round production is performed. During the ending in the jackpot game, as shown in FIG. 16 (C-3), on the display unit 50a, the ending image G111 indicating the effect mode set after the jackpot game and the total number of paid prize balls are indicated. The big hit ending effect in which the total winning ball number image G112 is displayed is performed.

  Note that the type of the effect mode can be changed or added as appropriate.

4-2. Special figure fluctuation production Next, special figure fluctuation production (it is also called simply “variation production”) is explained. When the variable display of the special figure is started, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 changes the special figure variation pattern and the special figure lottery result (the big hit determination result, the big hit symbol type determination result, the reach determination result, The special figure fluctuation effect is executed based on the special figure fluctuation pattern determination result). In the special figure variation effect, the variation display of the effect symbol is performed on the display unit 50a so as to be superimposed on a predetermined background image. The effect symbol is composed of, for example, numerical symbols of 1 to 9, and in the variation display of the effect symbol, the effect symbol fluctuates with the start of the variable display of the special figure, and the effect symbol changes with the end of the variable display of the special figure. Stops. That is, after the variation display of the special figure variation time and the effect symbol is performed, the variation is stopped, and the stop display of the effect symbol is performed. Then, the result of the special figure lottery is notified by the stop display of the effect symbol.

  In addition, in the special figure fluctuating effect, in addition to the fluctuating display of the effect design, various kinds of display such as the image display device 50, the speaker 52, the frame lamp 53, the board lamp 54, the movable devices 55, 56, 58, the normal button 40, the special button 41, and the like. It is possible to perform other effects using various effect devices. In this case, it is possible to continue another effect even after the stop display of the effect symbol.

4-2-1. Effect design display area As shown in FIG. 17 (A), the display unit 50a of the image display device 50 has a left effect on the left, center and right sides of the display unit 50a which is divided into three substantially equally in the horizontal direction. It is possible to provide a symbol area 50b1, a medium effect symbol area 50b2, and a right effect symbol area 50b3. The left effect symbol area 50b1 is an area for displaying the left effect symbol EZ1 when the effect symbol in the special figure fluctuation effect is stopped and displayed. Similarly, the medium effect design area 50b2 and the right effect design area 50b3 are areas for displaying the medium effect design EZ2 and the right effect design EZ3.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 17A, a small symbol region 50c can be provided in one section of the left end (upper left corner) of the upper end of the display unit 50a. The small symbol area 50c is an area where the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are variably displayed when the variable display of the special figure is performed. The small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 are composed of, for example, numerical symbols 1 to 9.

  In FIG. 17A, the left effect symbol area 50b1, the middle effect symbol area 50b2, the right effect symbol area 50b3, and the small symbol area 50c are clearly indicated by a two-dot chain line, but this is the left effect symbol area 50b1. , The middle effect symbol area 50b2, the right effect symbol area 50b3, and the small symbol area 50c, and are not actually displayed.

4-2-2. Normal fluctuation The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform normal fluctuation first in the special figure fluctuation effect. The normal fluctuation functions as an effect indicating that the variable display of the special map has started.

  When the variable display of the special figure is started, for example, as shown in FIG. 17A, the left effect symbol EZ1, the middle effect symbol EZ2, and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed on the display unit 50a. FIG. 17B shows a state in which the left small symbol KZ1, the middle small symbol KZ2, and the right small symbol KZ3 are stopped and displayed, and the variable display of the special figure is not performed and the variable display of the special figure is on standby. As shown in the figure, the fluctuation display of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 is started with the start, and the fluctuation display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is started. Note that “↓” in FIG. 17 indicates that the symbol is being displayed in a fluctuating manner. Then, when the special figure change pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “normal loss change”, as shown in FIG. 17C-1, the left effect symbol EZ1 and the right effect symbol EZ3 are different. After the temporary stop in the stop mode, the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a stop mode (so-called ragged pattern) indicating a loss, as shown in FIG. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are simultaneously stopped and displayed in a stop mode indicating loss. There are a plurality of types of stop modes suggesting a loss, such as “1.1.2” and “2.4.6”, in which the left and right symbols are not the same. On the other hand, when the special figure fluctuation pattern of the variable display of the special figure is a special figure fluctuation pattern having a reach such as “N loss fluctuation”, as shown in FIG. 17C-2, the left effect symbol EZ1 is displayed. And the right effect symbol EZ3 are temporarily stopped in the same stop mode (so-called reach eye), and reach is established. At this time, the fluctuation display of the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, KZ3 is continuously performed, and the reach effect according to the special figure fluctuation pattern is performed. In addition, the stop order and the stop mode of the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 can be appropriately changed.

4-2-3. N-reach The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform N-reach when reach is established in normal fluctuation. The N-reach is an effect that suggests that the result of the jackpot determination may have been “big hit”, and functions as an effect for causing the player to expect a big hit.

  In the N-reach, as shown in FIG. 18A, the state in which the reach is established is maintained for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds), and as shown in FIG. 18B, the fluctuation speed of the medium effect symbol EZ2 gradually increases. Slow down. Then, when the special figure change pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “N loss change”, as shown in FIG. 18C-1, the effect is performed in a stop mode (so-called reach loss eye) indicating the reach loss. The symbols EZ1, EZ2, EZ3 are stopped and displayed. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are simultaneously stopped and displayed in a stop mode suggesting reach loss. There are a plurality of types of stop modes suggesting reach loss, such as "7.6.7" and "5.3.5", in which the left and right symbols are the same and the middle symbol is different from the left and right symbols. On the other hand, when the special figure change pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “N big hit change”, as shown in FIG. indicate. There are a plurality of types of stop modes suggesting a big hit, such as "7 / 7.7" and "2.2.2", in which the left and right symbols are the same. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are simultaneously stopped and displayed in a stop mode indicating a big hit. In addition, the effect content of N reach is not limited to the slowdown of the medium effect symbol EZ2, and can be changed or added as appropriate.

4-2-4. SP Reach The pachinko gaming machine PY1 can perform SP reach after N reach. SP reach is an effect suggesting that the possibility of the result of the jackpot determination being “big hit” is higher than N reach, and functions as an effect for making the player expect a big hit.

  In the SP reach, after the N reach, for example, as shown in FIG. 19A, a background image dedicated to the SP reach (SP reach background image G113) is displayed on the display unit 50a, and the SP image is displayed at the center of the display unit 50a. An image (SP reach start title image) G1 indicating that the reach has been started is displayed. After that, as shown in FIG. 19 (B), an effect dedicated to SP reach (for example, a battle effect) is performed. Then, when the final phase of the SP-reach-only effect is reached, if the special figure change pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “SP big hit change”, as shown in FIG. At 50a, an effect indicating a jackpot (for example, a display in which the protagonist character is delighted to win the battle) is performed, and the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 stop in a stop mode (so-called zoro eyes) indicating a jackpot. indicate. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are simultaneously stopped and displayed in a stop mode indicating a big hit. On the other hand, when the special figure change pattern of the variable display of the special figure is, for example, “SP loss change”, as shown in FIG. 19C-2, an effect indicating the loss (for example, when the enemy character enters a battle) (A display that is happy to win) is performed, and the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are stopped and displayed in a stop mode suggesting reach loss. At this time, the small symbols KZ1, KZ2, and KZ3 are simultaneously stopped and displayed in a stop mode indicating loss. It should be noted that the production contents of SP reach can be changed or added as appropriate.

  Here, the possibility that the effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 for each reach are stopped in a manner indicating a big hit (big hit expectation) will be described in detail. The jackpot expectation degree for each reach is determined by an execution probability based on the result of the jackpot determination. For example, if the execution probability of N reach is 10% when the result of the jackpot determination is “losing”, and 100% if the result of the jackpot determination is “big hit”, the execution probability of the SP reach is If the result of the jackpot determination is 4% when the result of the jackpot is “losing”, and 100% if the result of the jackpot determination is “the jackpot”, the jackpot expectation of SP reach is higher than the jackpot expectation of N reach. It can be set higher. Further, SP reach A and SP reach B can be executed as SP reach, and the execution probability of SP reach A is set to 2% when the jackpot determination result is “losing”, and the jackpot determination result is “big hit”. In the case of 20%, the execution probability of SP reach B is set to 2% when the result of the jackpot determination is “losing”, and to 30% when the result of the jackpot determination is “big hit”. For example, it is possible to set the jackpot expectation of SP reach B higher than the jackpot expectation of SP reach A. As described above, by appropriately setting the execution probability according to the result of the jackpot determination, the jackpot expectation degree can be set.

4-3. Reserved Icon Display Area The display section 50a of the image display device 50 can be provided with a reserved icon display area 50d including four display areas, as shown in FIG.

5. Game Control by the Game Control Microcomputer 101 Next, game control by the game control microcomputer 101 will be described with reference to FIGS. Note that counters, timers, buffers, and the like that appear in the control of the game by the game control microcomputer 101 described below are provided in the game RAM 104.

[1. Main control main processing]
When the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is powered on, the game control microcomputer 101 provided on the main control board 100 reads out and executes the main control main processing program shown in FIG. 23 from the game ROM 103. As shown in the figure, in the main control main processing, first, a power-on processing (S001) is performed. In the power-on process, permission setting for access to the game RAM 104, setting of the game CPU 102, setting of SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time), and the like are performed.

  Subsequent to the power-on process, the interrupt is prohibited (S002), and a normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (S003) is executed. In the normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (S003), the counter values of the various random numbers shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B are updated by adding one. When the counter value of each random number reaches the upper limit value, it returns to “0” and is added again. Note that the initial value of the counter of each random number may be a value other than “0” or may be changed randomly. At least a part of each random number may be a so-called hardware random number generated using a known random number generation circuit including a counter IC or the like.

  When the normal symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (S003) ends, an interrupt is permitted (S004). While the interruption is permitted, the execution of the main-side timer interruption processing (S005) becomes possible. The main timer interrupt process (S005) is executed based on an interrupt pulse repeatedly input to the gaming CPU 102 at a period of, for example, 4 msec. That is, the main-side timer interrupt processing (S005) is executed at a cycle of 4 msec. From the end of the main timer interrupt process (S005) to the next start of the main timer interrupt process (S005), various types of normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S003) are performed. The process of updating the random number counter value is repeatedly executed. When an interrupt pulse is input to the gaming CPU 102 in the interrupt disabled state, the main timer interrupt process (S005) is not started immediately, but is started after the interrupt is enabled (S004).

[2. Main timer interrupt processing]
Next, the main timer interrupt processing (S005) will be described. As shown in FIG. 24, in the main timer interrupt process (S005), first, an output process (S101) is executed. In the output process (S101), a command or the like set in an output buffer provided in the game RAM 104 of the main control board 100 in each process described below is output to the sub control board 120, the payout control board 170, and the like.

  In the input process (S102) performed after the output process (S101), the game control microcomputer 101 captures, for example, a detection signal from a lower plate full switch that detects the fullness of the lower plate 35, and performs the game as lower plate full data. In the output buffer of the RAM 104 for use.

  The next ordinary symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (S103) is the same as the ordinary symbol / special symbol main random number updating process (S003) performed in the main control main process of FIG. That is, the updating process of the counter values of various random numbers shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B is performed during the execution period of the main timer interrupt process (S005) and during the other period (the main timer interrupt process ( After the end of S005), a period until the next main-side timer interrupt process (S005) is started).

  Subsequent to the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S103), the game control microcomputer 101 performs a sensor detection process (S104), subsequently performs a normal operation process (S105), and further performs a special operation process (S106). Do. The sensor detection processing, the normal operation processing, and the special operation processing will be described later.

  Following the special operation process (S106), a distribution device control process for controlling the distribution device 16D is performed (S107).

  Next, the game control microcomputer 101 executes other processing (S108), and ends the main timer interrupt processing (S005). As other processing (S108), power-off monitoring processing when power is turned off, updating of a timer provided in the game RAM 104, and the like are performed. As another process (S108), a payout control process of paying out a prize ball to a player is performed. In the payout control processing, a prize ball request signal is transmitted to the payout control board 170 in accordance with the winning of the game ball to each winning port. That is, the payout control board 170 pays out prize balls based on the prize ball request signal.

  Then, the game control microcomputer 101 repeatedly executes the processes of steps S002 to S004 of the main control main process until an interrupt pulse is input to the game CPU 102 next (see FIG. 23), and the interrupt pulse is input. Then (after about 4 msec), the main timer interrupt processing (S005) is executed again. In the output process (S101) of the main timer interrupt process (S005) executed again, the game control microcomputer 101 sets the command set in the output buffer of the game RAM 104 in the previous main timer interrupt process (S005). And so on.

  In the first special winning opening sensor processing, it is determined whether or not a game ball has been detected by the first special winning opening sensor. In addition, a command for the first special winning opening sensor according to the result of the processing is generated.

  In the second winning opening sensor processing, it is determined whether or not a game ball has been detected by the second winning opening sensor. Further, a command for the second special winning opening sensor according to the result of the processing is generated.

  In the specific area sensor processing, it is determined whether or not a game ball has been detected by the specific area sensor. In addition, a command for a specific area sensor is generated according to the result of the processing.

[2-2. Normal operation processing]
In the normal operation process (S105), a normal symbol standby process, a normal symbol variation process, a normal symbol determination process, and an auxiliary game control process are sequentially performed. Then, the command generated in each process is set in the output buffer of the game RAM 104.

  The ordinary symbol standby process is a process that is performed during standby when the variable display of the ordinary symbol and the auxiliary game are not performed. In the ordinary symbol standby process, a hit determination is made based on the ordinary symbol random numbers stored in the ordinary symbol holding storage unit 106. In addition, the general figure fluctuation pattern is determined based on the current game state to determine the general figure fluctuation pattern. Then, a general figure change start command including information on the result of the hit determination and the general figure change pattern is generated. Then, based on the determined time-varying time associated with the determined time-varying variation pattern, the general-purpose display 82 is caused to start variable display of the time-varying figure.

  The normal symbol variation process is a process performed during the variable display of the ordinary symbol. In the ordinary symbol change process, the stoppage of the ordinary figure is performed based on the hit determination result in response to the elapse of the ordinary figure change time from the start of the variable display of the ordinary figure being executed. Then, a general figure change stop command indicating the end of the variable display of the general figure is generated.

  The normal symbol determination process is a process performed when a normal symbol is stopped and displayed. In the normal symbol confirmation process, the stop-displayed general symbol is a hit symbol in response to the elapse of a predetermined stop time (for example, 0.8 seconds) from the start of the stop display of the running general symbol. It is determined whether or not there is. If the winning symbol is stopped and displayed, the auxiliary game is started based on the current game state and the auxiliary game control table, and an auxiliary game start command indicating the start of the auxiliary game is generated.

  In the special figure 1 determination process, a special symbol random number among the special figure 1 related random numbers stored in the first area of the special figure 1 hold storage unit 105a and a jackpot determination table according to the current game state are used. Then, a jackpot determination is performed to determine whether the hit is a jackpot or a loss. If the result of the jackpot determination is a jackpot, a jackpot symbol type determination for determining the jackpot symbol type is performed using the jackpot symbol type random number of the special figure 1 relation random numbers and the special symbol 1 jackpot symbol type determination table. Then, a symbol designating command representing the determined big hit symbol type is generated. If the result of the jackpot determination is a loss, a symbol designating command representing the loss is generated.

  The special figure 1 variation pattern determination processing is processing performed after the special figure 1 determination processing. In the special figure 1 change pattern determination process, the special figure change pattern random number among the special figure 1 relation random numbers stored in the first area of the special figure 1 hold storage unit 105a and the special figure 1 corresponding to the current game state are used. The special pattern 1 change pattern is determined using the change pattern table. The determination of the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is also associated with the number of special figure 1 related random numbers stored in the special figure 1 reservation storage unit 105a (the number of special figure 1 reservations). Then, a special figure 1 change start command representing the determined special figure 1 change pattern is generated. The special figure 1 change start command is associated with information on the special figure 1, information on the result of the jackpot determination, information on the result of the reach determination, information on the result of the jackpot type determination, and the special figure 1 change pattern. It includes information on special figure fluctuation time. Then, the special figure 1 display 81a starts variable display of the special figure 1 based on the special figure changing time period associated with the determined special figure 1 changing pattern.

  The special figure 1 hold storage unit shift processing is processing performed when the special figure 1 determination processing and the special figure 1 variation pattern determination processing are performed. In the special figure 1 hold storage unit shift processing, the special figure 1 relation random number stored in the special figure 1 hold storage unit 105a is shifted by one to the first area side, and the special figure 1 relation random number in the first area is specially shifted. Cleared from the hold storage unit 105a in FIG. In this way, the special figure 1 related random numbers are digested in the order of acquisition. Then, a special figure 1 hold number command representing the special figure 1 hold number after the processing is generated.

  In this embodiment, when both the special figure 2 hold number and the special figure 1 hold number exist, the special figure 2 determination process is performed with priority, and the variable display of the special figure 2 and the variable display of the special figure 1 are performed. Are not performed in parallel.

[2-3-2. Special symbol change processing]
The special symbol change process is a process performed during variable display of a special figure. In the special symbol fluctuation process, the special figure display 81 terminates the variable display of the special figure and stops and displays the special figure according to the result of the jackpot determination in response to the elapse of the special figure fluctuation time. If the result of the jackpot determination is a big hit, a big hit symbol indicating a big hit is stopped and displayed. If the result of the big hit determination is a loss, a lost symbol indicating a loss is stopped and displayed. Then, a special figure fluctuation stop command indicating the end of the variable display of the special figure is generated.

[2-3-3. Special design confirmation process]
The special symbol determination process is a process performed when the special figure is stopped and displayed. In the special symbol determination process, if the special figure currently stopped and displayed is a big hit symbol, the game is shifted to the big hit gaming state. Then, an opening command indicating the start of the big hit game is generated. The opening command includes information on the result of the jackpot type determination. If the special figure currently stopped and displayed is a lost symbol and the high probability state is to be ended, the normal probability state is set. Then, a high probability end command indicating transition to the normal probability state is generated. If the special figure currently stopped and displayed is a lost symbol and the time reduction state is to be ended, the non-time reduction state is set. Then, a time saving end command indicating transition to the non-time saving state is generated. When the special figure currently stopped and displayed is a lost symbol and the number of special figure 2 reservations and special figure 1 reservation is “0”, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 indicates that the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is in a standby state. Generate commands.

[2-3-4. Jackpot game control processing]
The jackpot game control process is a process performed in a jackpot game state. In the big hit game control process, a big hit game is performed using a big hit game control table. After the transition to the jackpot game state, each round game is started according to the elapse of the opening time or the closing time. Then, a round game command indicating the start of the round game is generated. The ending is started in response to ending the final round game. Then, an ending command indicating the end of the big hit game is generated. The ending command includes information on the result of the jackpot type determination.

[2-3-5. Game state setting process]
The game state setting process is a process performed when the big hit game state ends. In the game state setting process, when changing from the normal probability state to the high probability state, the high probability state is set at the end of the jackpot game state. When the duration of the high-probability state is limited, the duration of the high-probability state (for example, the number of times of variable display of a special figure that allows the high-probability state to continue without winning a jackpot) is also set. Then, a high probability setting command indicating the setting of the high probability state is generated. When changing from the non-time saving state to the time saving state, the time saving state is set at the end of the big hit game state. When the duration of the time-saving state is limited, the duration of the time-saving state (for example, the number of times of variable display of a special figure that can continue the time-saving state without winning a jackpot) is also set. Then, a time saving setting command indicating the setting of the time saving state is generated.

  The command generated by the game control microcomputer 101 in each process can be added or changed as appropriate.

6. Next, the control of the effect by the effect control microcomputer 121 will be described with reference to FIGS. 25 and 26. FIG. Note that counters, timers, flags, buffers, and the like appearing in the following description of the effect control by the effect control microcomputer 121 are provided in the effect RAM 124.

[1. Sub-control main processing]
When the pachinko gaming machine PY1 is powered on, the effect control microcomputer 121 provided on the sub-control board 120 reads out the sub-control main processing program shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, in the sub-control main process, first, a power-on process corresponding to the power-on is performed (S4001). In the power-on processing, for example, settings for the effect CPU 122, settings for SIO, PIO, CTC (circuit for managing interrupt time), and the like are performed.

  Next, interrupts are prohibited (S4002), and random number seed update processing is executed (S4003). In the random number seed updating process (S4003), the values of various effect determination random number counters for performing determinations regarding various effects are updated. As an example, the method of updating the effect determination random number counter for various effects can be the same as the ordinary symbol / special symbol main random number updating process performed by the main control board 100 described above. At the time of updating, instead of adding random numbers one by one, two may be added. This is the same in the ordinary symbol / special symbol main random number updating process performed by the main control board 100 described above.

  Upon completion of the random number seed update process, a command transmission process is executed (S4004). In the command transmission process, various commands stored in the output buffer in the effect RAM 124 of the sub-control board 120 are transmitted to the image control board 140. The image control board 140 that has received the command displays an image on the display unit 50a according to the received command (executes various effects using the image). The sub-control board 120 outputs various sounds performed by the image control board 140, outputs sound from the speaker 52 via the sound control circuit 161 (executes various sound effects by sound), and controls the lamp. The frame lamp 53 and the board lamp 54 emit light through the circuit 151 (execute various light emission effects by light emission), and operate the movable devices 55, 56, and 58 (various movable object effects by operation). Or execute).

  The effect control microcomputer 121 subsequently permits an interrupt (S4005). Thereafter, steps S4002 to S4005 are looped. While the interruption is permitted, the reception interruption processing (S4010) and the sub timer interruption processing (S4011) can be executed.

  The reception interrupt processing (S4010) is executed each time various commands sent from the main control board 100 are input to the effect control microcomputer 121. In the reception interruption process (S4010), the effect control microcomputer 121 stores various commands transmitted and received in the output process (S101) of the main control board 100 in the reception buffer of the effect RAM 124. This reception interruption processing is executed prior to other interruption processing (S4011).

[2. Sub timer interrupt processing]
The sub-side timer interrupt processing (S4011) is executed every time an interrupt pulse having a predetermined cycle (for example, 1 msec cycle) is input to the sub-control board 120. In the sub-side timer interrupt process (S4011), as shown in FIG. 26, an input process (S4101), a light emission data output process (S4102), a movable device control process (S4103), a watchdog timer process (S4104), a received command analysis The processing (S4105), the effect timer updating process (S4106), the voice control process (S4107), and the effect data creating process (S4108) are sequentially performed.

  In the input process, an operation on an operation unit that can be operated by the player, such as the normal button detection switch 40a and the special button detection switch 41a, is detected. In the light emission data output process, based on the effect data created in the effect data creation process described later, the light emission data such as the frame lamp 53 and the board lamp 54 are illuminated at a timing suitable for the effect by the image and the like. Is output to the lamp control circuit 151. That is, the effect control microcomputer 121 causes the frame lamp 53, the board lamp 54, and the like to emit light in a predetermined light emission mode according to the light emission data. In the movable device control process, drive data is output based on the effect data created in the effect data creation process in order to perform a movable body effect for operating movable devices such as the movable devices 55, 56, and 58 at a predetermined timing. I do. That is, the effect control microcomputer 121 performs a movable body effect that operates the movable devices 55, 56, 58, and the like in a predetermined operation mode according to the drive data. In the watchdog timer processing, reset setting of the watchdog timer is performed.

  In the reception command analysis processing, the command stored in the reception buffer of the effect RAM 124 is analyzed by the reception interruption processing (S4010), and processing corresponding to the command (for example, selection of an effect, setting of an effect mode, setting of a command, and the like). I do. In the effect timer updating process, a timer for measuring time related to each effect is updated. In the voice control process, the generation of voice data (data for controlling the output of voice from the speaker 52) and the output to the voice control circuit 161 are performed based on the processing result of the received command analysis process. In the effect data creation process, effect data is created based on the processing result of the received command analysis process.

<First embodiment>
Hereinafter, the first embodiment will be described. Unless otherwise stated, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 of the above-described basic embodiment is also applied to the first embodiment.

  First, a special figure 1 variation pattern that can be determined by the game control microcomputer 101 will be described. The special ROM 1 variation pattern determination table shown in FIG. 27 is stored in the gaming ROM 103. The game control microcomputer 101 can determine the special figure 1 change pattern using the special figure 1 change pattern determination table shown in FIG. In the first embodiment, the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table shown in FIG. 27 is used. However, the special figure 1 variation pattern determination table shown in FIG. 11 can be used together.

  The game control microcomputer 101 determines the special figure 1 change pattern based on the jackpot determination result, the reach determination result, and the special figure change pattern random number in the special figure 1 change pattern determination process in the non-time saving state. As shown in FIG. 27, the game control microcomputer 101 uses the twelve special patterns of “THP001” to “THP004”, “THP011” to “THP016”, and “THP021” to “THP022” as special figure 1 variation patterns. One variation pattern can be determined. Which special figure 1 fluctuation pattern is determined depends on the special figure fluctuation pattern random number.

  Specifically, when the result of the jackpot determination is “big hit”, one of the four special figure 1 change patterns “THP001” to “THP004” is determined. “THP003” and “THP004” among the four types of special figure 1 change patterns are more easily determined than the other special figure 1 change patterns. Note that “THP001” is referred to as “last battle jackpot variation”, “THP002” is referred to as “battle jackpot variation”, “THP003” is referred to as “battle / story jackpot variation”, and “THP004” is “story jackpot variation”. That.

  If the result of the jackpot determination is "losing" and the result of the reach determination is "having a reach", one of the six special figure 1 variation patterns of "THP011" to "THP016" is determined. You. “THP015” and “THP016” of the six special figure 1 change patterns are more easily determined than the other special figure 1 change patterns. Note that “THP011” is called “final battle loss fluctuation”, “THP012” is called “battle loss fluctuation”, “THP013” is called “battle / story loss fluctuation”, and “THP014” is “story loss fluctuation”. "THP015" is referred to as "branch A loss fluctuation", and "THP016" is referred to as "branch B loss fluctuation".

  When the result of the jackpot determination is “losing” and the result of the reach determination is “no reach”, one of the two special figure 1 variation patterns “THP021” to “THP022” is determined. You. Which one of the two special figure 1 fluctuation patterns is determined as the special figure 1 fluctuation pattern depends on the allocation depending on the number of special figure 1 reservations. When the number of special figure 1 reservations is 0 to 1, "THP021" of 13000 ms with a relatively long special figure fluctuation time is easily determined, and when the number of special figure 1 reservations is 2 to 4, "THP022" of 4000 ms with a relatively short fluctuation time is easily determined. Note that “THP021” is called “normal A loss fluctuation”, and “THP022” is called “normal B loss fluctuation”.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 28, a description will be given of a movable device mounted on the effecting unit 1U of the game board unit YU.

As described above, the under-panel movable device 56 includes the under-panel movable body 56k which is disposed in front of the display unit 50a and is movable along the display unit 50a. The panel left movable device 57L is disposed ahead of the display unit 50a, the on-panel movable device 55, and the under-panel movable device 56, and includes a panel left movable body 57Lk movable along the display unit 50a. The panel-right movable device 57R is disposed forward of the display unit 50a, the on-panel movable device 55, and the under-panel movable device 56, and includes a panel-right movable body 57Rk movable along the display unit 50a.

  The left panel movable unit 57Lk and the right panel movable unit 57Rk are driven by the display unit 50a of the image display device 50 before the left panel movable unit 57L and the right panel movable unit 57R are driven, as shown in FIG. It is held in a standby state that is easily visible. When the left panel movable device 57L is driven, the left panel movable member 57Lk moves rightward, and when the right panel movable device 57R is driven, the right panel movable member 57Rk moves leftward. At this time, as shown in FIG. 28B, the display unit 50a is covered with the moved board left movable body 57Lk or the moved board right movable body 57Rk, and the display unit 50a becomes difficult to see.

A panel right lamp 57RSL is provided on the body 57Rk. Each of the on-panel lamp 55SL, the under-panel lamp 56SL, the left-panel lamp 57LSL, and the right-panel lamp 57RSL has LEDs built-in, and is connected to the sub-control board 120 as various lamps SL. The effect control microcomputer 121 can cause each of the lamps 55SL, 56SL, 57LSL, and 57RSL to emit light of an arbitrary emission color.

  In addition, a translucent lens body is provided on each of the on-panel movable body 55k, the under-panel movable body 56k, and the right-panel movable body 57Rk. It is performed through each lens body. In addition, the panel left movable body 57Lk is provided with a translucent logo lens body 57Lkl imitating characters of “story” that reminds a player of “story reach” described later, and the panel left lamp 57LSL emits light. This is performed via the logo lens body 57Lkl.

  Next, a special figure variation effect that can be executed by the effect control microcomputer 121 in accordance with the special figure 1 variation pattern determined by the game control microcomputer 101 will be described with reference to FIGS. The effect control microcomputer 121 can execute the following effects in the special figure fluctuation effect in the non-time saving state.

A. Normal fluctuation “normal fluctuation” is an effect that may be performed in response to the start of variable display of a special figure, and is an effect in which effect symbols EZ1, EZ2, and EZ3 are variably displayed. The “normal fluctuation” is performed first in the special figure fluctuation effect, and thus functions as an effect indicating that the special figure fluctuation effect has been started.

B. Reach “Reach” is an effect in which, after “normal fluctuation”, the left effect symbol EZ1 and the right effect symbol EZ3 are stopped and displayed in the same type of effect symbol. "Reach" may be performed when the result of the jackpot determination is "big hit", and thus functions as an effect indicating that there is a possibility that a jackpot game will be performed. In addition, since “reach” may later evolve into reach productions such as “battle reach” and “story reach”, the “reach” also functions as a production that suggests that a reach production may be performed.

C. Branch production “branch production” is a production that may be performed after “reach” is established, and is a production that suggests whether or not the production will develop thereafter. The "branch effect" may be performed when the result of the jackpot determination is "big hit", and thus functions as an effect indicating that there is a possibility that the big hit game will be performed. Also, the “branch effect” may later evolve into a reach effect such as “battle reach” or “story reach”, and thus also functions as an effect indicating that a reach effect may be performed.

D. Battle development gimmick production "Battle development gimmick production" is a production that may be performed in "branch production", and the upper movable body 55k, the lower movable body 56k, and the right movable body 57Rk are displayed in a predetermined order. This is a step-up effect that appears on the unit 50a. The "battle development gimmick production" may later evolve into "battle reach", and thus functions as a production that indicates that "battle reach" may be performed.

E. FIG. Story development gimmick production "Story development gimmick production" is a production that may be performed in "branch production", and the board movable body 55k, the board lower movable body 56k, the board left movable body 57Lk, and the board right movable body 57Rk , A step-up effect that appears on the display unit 50a in a predetermined order. Since the "story development gimmick production" may later evolve into "story reach", it functions as a production indicating that "story reach" may be performed.

F. Battle Reach “Battle reach” is an effect that may be performed after a “branch effect” in which a “battle development gimmick effect” is performed, and is a reach effect in which an ally character battles with an enemy character. "Battle Reach" is an effect that suggests that there is a high possibility that a jackpot game will be performed because it is easier to perform when the result of the jackpot determination is "losing" than when it is "big hit" Function. In addition, since "Battle Reach" may later evolve into "Final Battle Reach" or "Story Reach", it also functions as an effect indicating that the reach effect may be developed.

G. FIG. Final Battle Reach “Final Battle Reach” is an effect that may be performed after “Battle Reach”, and is a reach effect in which an ally character battles with a strong enemy character. "Final Battle Reach" is a production that suggests that a jackpot game is likely to be performed because it is easier to perform when the result of the jackpot determination is "big hit" than when it is "losing" Function as In addition, since the jackpot game is more easily performed when the battle reach reaches the final battle reach than when the battle reach does not evolve to the final battle reach, the final battle reaches the final battle reach. The “reach” also functions as an effect indicating that the possibility of the jackpot game being performed is higher than the “battle reach”. In addition, since "final battle reach" does not have an effect that develops thereafter, it also functions as an effect that indicates a hit.

H. Story reach "Story reach" is a production that may be performed after a "battle reach" or after a "branch production" in which a "story development gimmick production" is performed. It is a production. "Story Reach" is an effect that suggests that there is a high possibility that a jackpot game will be performed because it is easier to perform when the result of the jackpot determination is "big hit" than when it is "losing" Function. In addition, the story hit is easier to play when the battle reach reaches the story reach than when the battle reach does not develop to the story reach. , It also functions as an effect that suggests that a jackpot game is more likely to be performed than “Battle Reach”. In addition, since the jackpot game is easier to perform when developing from "Battle Reach" to "Story Reach" than when developing from "Battle Reach" to "Final Battle Reach", "Story Reach" It also functions as an effect that suggests that a jackpot game is more likely to be performed than “final battle reach”. In addition, "Story Reach" also functions as a production that suggests a hit because there is no production that develops thereafter.

I. The resurrection development gimmick production "Resurrection development gimmick production" is a production that may be performed after a loss is suggested in "Battle Reach", and the board movable body 55k, the board left movable body 57Lk, and the board right movable body 57Rk are This is a notice effect that may appear on the display unit 50a simultaneously or almost simultaneously. "Resurrection development gimmick production" may develop into "story reach" after that, so it functions as a production that suggests that "story reach" may be performed.

  Next, a description will be given of an effect flow of a main special figure fluctuation effect in a non-time saving state. In each effect constituting the effect flow, the effect control microcomputer 121 displays the effect image on the display unit 50a, and in accordance with the display of the effect image, emits light using the frame lamp 53 or the board lamp 54, And the sound effect using the sound effect 52 can be executed.

<Consideration of the first embodiment>
Hereinafter, the pachinko gaming machine PY1 described in the first embodiment will be considered. First, the probability of the jackpot game being performed after the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear in order, and the jackpot game being performed after the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially simultaneously. Consider the relationship between the probability of occurrence and the probability. When the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear in order, there are times when the game progresses to "Battle Reach" and time when the game progresses to "Story Reach". On the other hand, when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear at the same time or almost simultaneously, the story always develops into "story reach". That is, since "Story Reach" is more likely to be a jackpot game than "Battle Reach", when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear in order, the board right movable body 57Rk and the board It can be said that the probability that the big hit game is performed is different between when the upper movable body 55k appears simultaneously or almost simultaneously. In the first embodiment, the jackpot game is achieved when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially simultaneously with each other than when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear sequentially. High probability of being done.

  Next, the board left movable body 57Lk when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear sequentially, and the board when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear simultaneously or almost simultaneously. The relationship between the appearance of the left movable body 57Lk and the appearance will be considered. When the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear in order, there is a case where the board left movable body 57Lk appears and a case where it does not appear. On the other hand, when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear simultaneously or substantially simultaneously, the board left movable body 57Lk always appears. In other words, when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear in order, and when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear simultaneously or almost simultaneously, the board left movable body 57Lk is turned on. It can be said that the probabilities of appearance are different from each other. In the first embodiment, when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear at the same time or substantially at the same time as when the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear sequentially, the The probability that the left movable body 57Lk will appear is high.

  Next, the relationship between the appearance of the board left movable body 57Lk provided with the logo lens body 57Lkl and the jackpot game will be considered. When the left movable body 57Lk appears in the “branch effect”, the story progresses to “story reach”. On the other hand, when the board left movable body 57Lk does not appear in the “branch effect”, there are times when it evolves into “battle reach” and times when it does not evolve into “battle reach” or “story reach” . In other words, since "Story Reach" is more likely to be a jackpot game than "Battle Reach", there is a case where the board left movable body 57Lk provided with the logo lens body 57Lkl appears and a case where it does not appear, It can be said that the probability that the jackpot game is performed is different from each other. In the first embodiment, the probability that the big hit game is played is higher when the board left movable body 57Lk appears than when it does not appear.

  Next, the relationship between the appearance of the board left movable body 57Lk and the development to “story reach” will be considered. When the board left movable body 57Lk appears in the “branch effect”, it always develops into “story reach”. On the other hand, in the case where the board left movable body 57Lk does not appear in the “branch effect”, there are times when it develops into “story reach” and after it develops into “story reach”. That is, it can be said that the probability of developing into "story reach" differs between the case where the left panel movable body 57Lk appears and the case where the left panel movable body 57Lk does not appear. In the first embodiment, the probability of developing into “story reach” is higher when the left panel movable body 57Lk appears than when the left panel movable body 57Lk does not appear. easy).

  Next, the probability of a jackpot game being played when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the board right movable body 57Rk, and the jackpot when the on-board movable body 55k appears in the standby state of the board right movable body 57Rk. Consider the relationship between the probability that a game will be played and the probability of the game being played. If the on-board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the board right movable body 57Rk in the "branch effect", then it always develops into "story reach". On the other hand, when the board movable body 55k appears in the standby state of the board right movable body 57Rk in the “branch effect”, when the board develops into a “battle reach”, then develops into a “story reach” and when it does not develop There is. In other words, since “Story Reach” is more likely to be a jackpot game than “Battle Reach”, the case where the on-board movable body 55k appears in the appearance state of the board right movable body 57Rk and the case where the board right movable body 57Rk It can be said that the probability of performing the big hit game is different from the case where the on-board movable body 55k appears in the standby state of. In the first embodiment, a big hit game is obtained when the board movable body 55K appears in the appearance state of the board right movable body 57Rk compared to the case where the board movable body 55R appears in the standby state of the board right movable body 57Rk. Is likely to be performed.

  Next, the relationship between the appearance of the on-board movable body 55k and the jackpot game will be considered. When the on-board movable body 55k appears in the “branch effect”, it develops into “battle reach” or “story reach”. On the other hand, when the on-board movable body 55k does not appear in the “branch effect” (in the case of the gaseous effect), the game loses without developing into “battle reach” or “story reach”. In other words, since "Battle Reach" and "Story Reach" have a high possibility of a jackpot game being played, the probability that the jackpot game will be played when the on-board movable body 55k appears and when it does not appear is different from each other. It is different. In the first embodiment, the probability that the jackpot game is performed is higher when the movable body 55k on the board appears than when it does not appear.

  Next, the probability that the on-panel movable body 55k appears after the swing operation of the on-panel movable body 55k is performed, and the probability that the on-panel movable body 55k appears after the display of the on-panel movable body image G12 is performed. , Is considered. After the swing motion of the movable body 55k on the board in the “branch effect”, the movable body on board 55k appears with a probability of about 73%. On the other hand, after the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed in the “branch effect”, the on-board movable body 55k appears with a probability of about 69% (see FIGS. 27 and 33). That is, it can be said that the probability that the on-board movable body 55k appears differs between when the on-board movable body 55k swings and when the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed. In the first embodiment, the probability that the on-board movable body 55k appears is higher when the on-board movable body 55k swings than when the on-board movable body image G12 is displayed.

  Next, the probability that both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k will appear after one of the swinging motions of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is determined, and The relationship between the rightward movable body 57Rk and the probability that both the on-panel movable bodies 55k will appear after both swinging operations of the on-panel movable body 55k are considered. After the swing operation of one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear with a probability of about 73%. On the other hand, after the rocking operation of both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear with a probability of about 70% (FIG. 27, FIG. 33). In other words, when the swing operation of one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, and when the swing operation of both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, the board is moved. It can be said that both the right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k have different probabilities of appearance. In the first embodiment, when one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k swings more than when both the board right movable body 57Rk and the on-board movable body 55k swings. Has a higher probability that both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear.

  Next, the probability that the jackpot game will be performed when both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the swing motion of one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed. The probability that the jackpot game will be performed when both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the swing operation of both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed. Consider the relationship. If both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the swing operation of one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k, a jackpot game with a probability of about 75%. Is performed. On the other hand, when both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the swing operation of both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k, there is a probability of about 86%. A jackpot game is performed (see FIG. 27). That is, the case where both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the swing operation of one of the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, the case where the board right movable body 57Rk and the board It can be said that the probability that the jackpot game is performed is different between the case where both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after both swinging operations of the upper movable body 55k are performed. In the first embodiment, the right side of the panel 57Rk and the on-panel movable body 55k perform a swinging operation and then the right side of the panel 57Rk and the on-panel movable body 55k both appear. When both the board right movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k appear after the swing motion of both the movable body 57Rk and the board movable body 55k is performed, the probability that the jackpot game is performed is higher.
