On the right side of the effect display device 9 in the game area 7, a first special symbol display 8a that variably displays the first special symbol as a plurality of types of identification information that can identify each, and a plurality of types that can identify each There is provided a second special symbol display 8b that variably displays the second special symbol as the identification information of.

  Each of the first special symbol display device 8a and the second special symbol display device 8b is composed of a display device (for example, 7-segment LED) capable of variably displaying numbers and characters. The effect display device 9 is composed of a liquid crystal display device (LCD), and a display screen displays various images such as a variable display of effect symbols synchronized with the variable display of the first special symbol or the second special symbol. A region is provided. In such a display area, for example, a symbol display area in which three decorative (for effect) effect symbols for “left”, “middle”, and “right” are variably displayed is formed.

  The effect display device 9 is composed of a liquid crystal display device (LCD), and a display screen displays various images such as a variable display of effect symbols synchronized with the variable display of the first special symbol or the second special symbol. A region is provided. In such a display area, for example, a symbol display area in which three decorative (for effect) effect symbols for “left”, “middle”, and “right” are variably displayed is formed.

  Below the effect display device 9, a winning device having a first starting winning opening 13 is provided. The game ball that has won the first start winning opening 13 is detected by the first starting opening switch 13a. Further, below the winning device having the first starting winning opening 13, there is provided a variable winning ball device 15 having a second starting winning opening 14 capable of winning game balls. The game ball that has won the second start winning opening 14 is detected by the second starting opening switch 14a.

  The variable winning ball device 15 is provided with a pair of left and right movable pieces, and is in an open state (first state) that is advantageous to the player (the game ball can enter) and a closed state that is disadvantageous to the player (the game ball cannot enter). It is an electric tulip (also called electric chu) type winning means that can be changed to a state (second state), and is driven by the solenoid 16. When the variable winning ball device 15 is in the open state, the game ball can enter the second starting winning opening 14 (it becomes easier to start winning). When the variable winning ball device 15 is in the closed state, the gaming ball cannot enter the second start winning port 14. The variable winning ball device 15 may be configured to be able to win in the closed state (although it is difficult for the game ball to win) in the closed state. The variable winning ball device 15 is composed of a variable winning means capable of changing between a first state in which a game ball can enter a predetermined area and a second state in which a game ball cannot enter or is difficult to enter a predetermined area. It should be.

  When the variable winning ball device 15 is closed, there is no area in which the variable winning ball device 15 can receive the game ball, so that the game ball is easier to win in the first starting winning port 13 than in the second starting winning port 14. On the other hand, when the variable winning ball device 15 is in the open state, the area in which the variable winning ball device 15 can receive the game balls is wider than the first starting winning port 13, so that the second starting winning port 13 is second. It is easy for the game ball to enter the starting winning opening 14. Hereinafter, the first start winning opening 13 and the second starting winning opening 14 may be collectively referred to as a starting winning opening or a starting opening.

  On the left side of the effect display device 9, there is provided a normal symbol display 10 that variably displays ordinary symbols that can be identified. Normally, the symbol display device 10 is realized by a display device (for example, a 7-segment LED) capable of variably displaying numbers 0-9.

  When the game ball passes through the gate 32 and is detected by the gate switch 32a, the variable display of the normal symbol display device 10 is started. The variable winning ball device 15 is controlled to be in an open state for a predetermined number of times and for a predetermined time when the stop symbol resulting from the variable display on the normal symbol display device 10 becomes a predetermined symbol (a winning symbol.). In the vicinity of the normal symbol display device 10, there is provided a normal symbol reservation storage display device 41 having a display unit of four LEDs for displaying the number of winning balls that have passed through the gate 32. Each time the game ball is detected by the gate switch 32a, the variable display of the normal symbol is stored in a reserved manner, and the normal symbol storage storage indicator 41 increases the number of LEDs to be turned on by one. Every time the variable display of the normal symbol display device 10 is started based on such a reserved storage of the normal symbol, the reserved storage of the normal symbol is exhausted, and the LED to be turned on is reduced by one.

  The variation display of the first special symbol or the second special symbol, the game ball enters the first starting winning opening 13 or the second starting winning opening 14 as the starting winning area (including passing, winning) and the first starting The first start condition (first execution condition) or the second start condition (second execution condition), which is the execution condition for the variable display, is established by being detected by the mouth switch 13a or the second start mouth switch 14a. After that, the variable display of the first special symbol or the second special symbol is, for example, when the number of reserved memories is not 0, and the variable display of the first special symbol and the second special symbol is not executed, And, it is started on the basis that the start condition of the variable display, which is a state where the big hit game is not executed, is satisfied. The variable display of the first special symbol or the second special symbol, when the variable display time (fluctuation time) elapses, the display result of the variable display (stop symbol) is derived and displayed and ends. Also, within the range of the predetermined upper limit, the variation display in which the starting condition is not yet established even though the game ball has entered the starting winning area such as the first starting winning opening 13 and the second starting winning opening 14 Storing information at is called pending storage. The reserved memory due to the entry of the game ball into the first start winning opening 13 is called the first reserved memory. The reserved storage due to the entry of the game ball into the second start winning opening 14 is called the second reserved memory.

  Above the first special symbol display device 8a and the second special symbol display device 8b, the first special symbol reserved memory display device 18a and the second reserved memory reserved memory number for displaying the reserved memory number of the first reserved memory. A second special symbol hold storage display 18b for displaying is provided. Each of the first special symbol reserved memory display 18a and the second special symbol reserved memory display 18b, each time there is a corresponding effective start winning, increase the number of indicators to be turned on by 1, the corresponding special symbol display Each time the variable display in step 1 is started, the number of lighted indicators is reduced by 1.

  When the variable display of the first special symbol is being executed on the first special symbol display device 8a, effect display such as variable display of the effect symbol is executed on the effect display device 9 corresponding to the variable display. When the variable display of the second special symbol is being executed on the second special symbol display device 8b, effect display such as variable display of the effect symbol is executed on the effect display device 9 corresponding to the variable display.

  When the variable display of the special symbol and the effect symbol is executed, and the big hit display result (big hit symbol) as the specific display result is displayed on the first special symbol display device 8a, or is specified on the second special symbol display device 8b. When the big hit display result (big hit pattern) as the display result is derived and displayed, the big hit display result (combination of big hit symbols) as the specific display result is derived and displayed also on the effect display device 9. Thus, when the specific display result is displayed as the variable display result, it is controlled to the specific game state (big hit game state) as an advantageous state in which a value advantageous to the player is given.

  Further, in the effect display device 9, the symbols other than the symbol which is the final stop symbol (for example, the middle symbol in the left and right middle symbols) are continued for a predetermined time, and the big hit symbols (for example, the symbols in the left, middle, and right are arranged in the same symbol). The combination of symbols) is stopped, oscillating, enlarged or reduced or deformed in the same state, or a plurality of symbols fluctuates in sync with the same symbol, or the positions of the displayed symbols are changed. The production performed in a state in which the possibility of a big hit continues before the final result is displayed (hereinafter, these states are referred to as reach states) is called reach production. As for the reach effect, the normal reach effect that is selected when the result is out of sync is higher than the ratio that is selected when the result is big hit, and the ratio that is selected when the result is big hit is out of sync. A super reach effect higher than the ratio selected when the display result is obtained is included. When the super reach effect is executed, the expectation of a big hit display result is higher than when the normal reach effect is executed.

  Here, in the reach state, when the effect symbols stopped and displayed in the display area of the effect display device 9 form a part of the big hit combination, the effect symbols that are not yet stopped and displayed are continuously displayed. A state, or a display state in which all or a part of the effect symbols fluctuate in synchronization while forming all or a part of the big hit combination.

  Further, at the lower end portion in the display area of the effect display device 9, an image for displaying the generated pending storage information (hereinafter, referred to as a pending image or a pending display) is displayed corresponding to the number of pending storage information. A display area is formed (not shown).

  An opening / closing plate that is driven by a solenoid 21 is provided below the variable winning ball device 15, and is in an open state (first state) that is advantageous to the player (the game ball can enter) and disadvantageous to the player (the game ball is A special variable winning ball device 20 is provided as a winning means capable of changing to a closed state (second state) in which entry is not possible. In the special variable winning ball device 20, the opening / closing plate is controlled to be open in the big hit game state, so that the big winning opening, which is a winning area, is opened. The game ball that has entered the special winning opening is detected by the count switch 23 as a winning ball. Note that the variable winning ball device 20 may be configured to be able to win in the closed state (although it is difficult for the game ball to win) in the closed state. The special variable winning ball device 20 is composed of a variable winning means capable of changing between a first state where a game ball can enter a predetermined area and a second state where a game ball cannot enter or is difficult to enter a predetermined area. It should have been done.

  In the big hit game state, the repetitive continuation control in which the special variable winning ball device 20 repeats the open state and the closed state is performed. In the repeat continuation control, a state in which the special variable winning ball device 20 is opened is called a round. A game in which the special variable winning ball device 20 is opened by repeated continuation control in a round is called a round game. Between the end of one round game and the start of the next round game, an interval period in which the special variable winning ball device 20 is closed for a predetermined period (for example, several seconds) is provided. .. In the big hit game state, the round game is repeatedly controlled a plurality of times throughout the interval period. In the big hit game state, after the special variable winning ball device 20 is opened, a predetermined ending condition of the open state (a predetermined period (for example, 29 seconds) has elapsed in the open state, or a predetermined upper limit number ( For example, the closed state is established in response to satisfaction of the opening end condition) that 10 winning balls have been generated. When the opening end condition is satisfied, the continuation right is generated, and the special variable winning ball device 20 is opened again. The generation of the continuation right is repeated until the number of times of opening in the jackpot gaming state reaches the final round (for example, the fifteenth round) where the predetermined upper limit value is reached.

  There are a plurality of types of big hits, and when it is decided to make a big hit, one of the big hit types is selected. Among the types of "big hit", after being controlled to the big hit game state, it is a state in which there is a high probability that the special game state is determined to be a big hit compared to the normal state (normal game state that is not the probability variation state). The type (class) of the jackpot that shifts to the probability variation state (abbreviation of probability variation state, also referred to as high probability state) is called “probability variation jackpot”. As the special game state, there is a case associated with the probability variation state, in which the variation time (variation display period) of the special symbol or the effect symbol is controlled to be a time saving state which is shorter than the non-time saving state. The special game state may be controlled to a time saving state independently of the probability variation state.

  In this way, by shifting to the time saving state, the variation time of the special symbol and the effect symbol is shortened, so when the time saving state is reached, an effective starting winning is likely to occur and a jackpot game may be performed. Increase. Of the "big hits", the type of big hits that do not shift to the probability changing state after being controlled to the big hit game state is called "normal big hit".

  As a special game state, the frequency of variable game balls entering the variable prize ball device 15 is increased by increasing the frequency of opening the variable prize ball device 15 in association with the probability change state or the time saving state. There is a case where the ball device 15 is controlled to be in a power-tube support control state that facilitates winning (increasing entry, increasing frequency).

  At the lower part of the game board 6, there is an outlet 26 into which hit balls that have not been won are taken. Further, outside the game area 7, four speakers 27 for producing sound effects and voices are provided. A frame LED 28 provided on the front frame is provided on the outer periphery of the game area 7.

  In addition, a prepaid card unit (also simply referred to as a “card unit”) that enables a ball lending by inserting a prepaid card is installed adjacent to the pachinko gaming machine 1 (not shown).

[Operation example]
Next, a description will be given of an example of the operation effect executed on the effect display device 9 by the effect control microcomputer 100. In the operation effect, the operation (operation) of the player for the operation means such as the push button 120 is detected by the operation (operation) detection means such as the push sensor 124, and a predetermined effect is performed based on the detection. It is a motion production.

  As the action effect, for example, a battle effect in which the player can operate the push button 120 to execute the effect is executed. In the battle production, a teammate character, which is a player's ally, and a enemy character, which is an enemy of the player, perform a battle, and when the teammate character wins, the jackpot display result is displayed, and when the enemy character wins. This is an effect in which the shift display result is displayed. In the battle effect, it is possible to execute an effect effect in which the teammate character attacks the enemy character in accordance with the operation of the push button 120 by the player.

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1, it is possible to execute a motion effect selected from the first motion effect and the second motion effect as the motion effect. The first action effect is an operation effect using the push button 120, and is an unchanged operation effect in which the operation pattern used for the effect is not changed during the execution of the effect. The second action effect is an operation effect using the push button 120, and is an operation effect with change in which the operation pattern used for the effect is changed during the execution of the effect.

  In the first action effect, by continuously operating the push button 120 (hereinafter, may be referred to as continuous hit), only the effect of performing continuous hit mode display in which the effect can be progressively advanced is executed. The content of the performance is not changed. In the second action effect, after the effect of displaying the continuous hit mode (also referred to as the continuous hit operation effect) is executed, the effect content is a one-shot mode in which the effect can be executed all at once by operating the push button 120 once. It is changed to a display effect (also called a one-stroke operation effect).

  Such first motion effect and second motion effect are executed as a specific reach effect such as a super reach effect. The first operation effect is executed when the effect control microcomputer 100 receives, from the game control microcomputer 560, an effect control command for instructing execution of the first super reach effect. The second operation effect is executed when the effect control microcomputer 100 receives, from the game control microcomputer 560, an effect control command for instructing execution of the second super reach effect.

  In addition, the first motion effect and the second motion effect, when the effect control microcomputer 100 receives from the game control microcomputer 560 an effect control command for instructing execution of a predetermined reach effect, the effect control microcomputer. The computer 100 may select and execute which action effect to execute.

[Example of first motion effect]
FIG. 3 is a display screen diagram of the effect display device 9 showing an example of no change operation effect as the first action effect. 3A to 3D show an example of an image displayed on the effect display device 9 in the change-free operation effect according to the passage of time.

  When the variable display is executed in the effect display device 9, the variable display of the left, middle, and right effect symbols 91 to 93 is started at the center of the screen. When the change-free operation effect is executed in the variable display, as shown in FIG. 3 (A), the effect symbols are in the reach display mode (the left and right effect symbols are aligned in the same symbol, and the middle effect symbol is changing). At the timing of (mode), the effect symbols 91 to 93 are moved to the corners of the screen and displayed in a reduced size, and the battle effect is started.

  When the battle effect is executed, as shown in FIG. 3 (A), the ally character 94 and the enemy character 95 appear before the battle starts, and a character such as "battle" that specifies the battle effect is displayed. The displayed advance display is performed for a predetermined period (for example, 2 to 3 seconds). As the advance display, further, a life display area 99 for displaying the life (endurance) of the enemy character 95 in a level, and information on the attack such as the attack power of the ally character 94 at the time of one attack is suggested by the color and shape. A suggestion display area 960 displaying the attacking power icon 96 is displayed. In the suggestion display area 960, a plurality of attack power icons 96 are displayed in a row in the vertical direction in correspondence with the attack order.

  When the continuous striking mode display of the battle effect is executed, as shown in FIGS. 3B and 3C, a button simulating the push button 120 as an operation promoting effect for promoting the operation of the push button 120 by the player. An image of the icon 98 is displayed, and in addition to the button icon 98, a continuous hit suggestion image 98A made up of the characters "continuous hit" and suggesting continuous hits is displayed. The “continuous hit” is a continuous operation in which the player performs a plurality of operations that can be detected by the operation detecting means such as the push sensor 124. More specifically, the “continuous hit” is a continuous operation in which the player operates the operation means such as the push button 120 a plurality of times.

  In the continuous striking mode display of the battle effect, as shown in FIG. 3 (C1), the lowest part of the suggestion display area 960 is displayed each time the player operates the push button 120 during the predetermined operation valid period. The offensive power icon 96 displayed in is deleted (erased), and accordingly, the display in which the ally character 94 attacks the enemy character 95 as shown in FIG. 3C is executed as the operation corresponding display. Such an operation corresponding display is called a continuous hitting operation display. In the continuous striking mode display of the battle effect, in the suggestion display area 960, each time the attack power icon 96 is digested (erased) during an attack, a plurality of displayed attack power icons 96 are displayed in a downward direction A display that shifts in the scrolling direction (in the direction of the arrow in the drawing) is displayed, and a new attack power icon 96 appears (replenishment display) at the top.

  The attack power icon 96 includes a ◯ shaped basic attack power icon 96A and a star shaped specific attack power icon (see FIG. 4). In the basic attack power icon 96A, the strength of one attack power is suggested by the color in the magnitude relation of “white <blue <red”. In the specific attack power icon, the shape of the star indicates that the effect content of the battle effect changes from the continuous hit operation effect to the one-hit operation effect. In this embodiment, only the basic attack power icon 96A is displayed and the specific attack power icon is not displayed when the change-free operation effect is executed. Although the specific attack power icon can also be displayed when the change-free operation effect is executed, the effect content of the battle effect does not change from the repeated hit operation effect to the one-hit operation effect even if the specific attack power icon is consumed by the operation. You can do it like this.

  In the pre-display, before the battle effect is started, a suggestion display is provided in the suggestion display area 960 to suggest the attack power of a plurality of attack effects by the color and shape of the attack force icon 96. As a result, the type of attack effect can be recognized by the player in advance, which further enhances the interest of the game regarding the action effect. Also in the continuous hit mode display, a suggestion display is provided in the suggestion display area 960, which suggests the attack power of a plurality of attack effects by the color and shape of the attack power icon 96. As a result, the player can recognize the type of the planned attack effect while the continuous hit mode is being displayed, which further enhances the interest of the game regarding the action effect.

  In the life display area 99, as shown in FIG. 3 (A), it is shown that the life of the enemy character 95 is at the maximum level at the start of the battle effect, and as shown in FIG. 3 (C), the battle effect is repeatedly hit. During execution of the mode display, an operation-corresponding display is displayed which decreases in response to an attack from the teammate character 94 in response to the operation of the push button 120. For example, the amount of decrease in life display in the life display area 99 by one attack is defined as “white <blue <red”. For example, the level of the life display of the life display area 99 is displayed by a level gauge between 0 and 100, for example.

  As shown in FIG. 3D, when the life display in the life display area 99 reaches the lowest level (0) before the battle effect is finished, a victory display indicating that the teammate character 94 has won (for example, "WIN Characters are displayed) and the jackpot display result is displayed. On the other hand, if the life display in the life display area 99 does not reach the lowest level (0) by the end of the battle effect, a defeat display indicating that the ally character 94 has lost (for example, display of the character "LOSE", etc.) ) Is performed, and the result of the display is displayed (not shown). At the time when such a victory display or a defeat display is executed, since the variable display time has not ended yet, the display result has not been finalized, and the left, middle, and right effect symbols 91 to 93 are completely It is not stopped and displayed, but is temporarily stopped in a swinging manner. After that, at the end of the variable display time, the left, middle, and right effect symbols 91 to 93 are completely stopped and displayed, and the display result is confirmed.

  The continuous-stroke operation effect is an effect that causes the player to continuously press the push button 120 (continuous operation). As shown in FIG. 3C, the ally character 94 is changed to the enemy character 95 each time the push button 120 is operated. Is an effect in which the life of the enemy character 95 displayed in the life display area 99 can be reduced. In the continuous hit operation effect, an effect is produced in which the degree of decrease in life at the time of one attack has a magnitude relationship of “white <blue <red”. Thus, in the continuous stroke operation effect, each time the push button 120 is operated, a continuous stroke operation corresponding display is performed as an operation corresponding display corresponding to the operation. As the continuous hit operation corresponding display, the attack power icon 96 displayed at the bottom of the suggestion display area 960 is digested, and accordingly, a display is displayed in which the ally character 94 attacks the enemy character 95, and the digested attack is displayed. A display for reducing the life displayed in the life display area 99 is performed to a different degree depending on the type of the force icon 96.

  In the change-free operation effect, the effect pattern is not changed in the middle of the operation effect, so only the continuous-stroke operation effect is executed, for example, as shown in FIGS. 3 (A) to 3 (D).

[Example of second motion effect]
FIG. 4 is a display screen diagram of the effect display device 9 showing an example of a changed operation effect as the second action effect. 4A to 4D show an example of an image displayed on the effect display device 9 in the changed operation effect according to the passage of time. In FIGS. 4 (A) to 4 (D), in the changeable operation effect, the continuous hitting operation effect is started first, and the continuous hitting mode display and the continuous hitting operation corresponding display as shown in FIG. 3 (C) are executed. The effect from the state where the specific attack power icon 96B is displayed is shown in FIG.

  In the modified operation effect, the same effect as the unchanged operation effect shown in FIGS. 3A to 3C, that is, the continuous hit operation effect, is the effect display device until a predetermined period elapses from the reach display mode. 9 is executed. Then, when a predetermined period has passed since the reach display mode was set, the specific attack power icon 96B is displayed as shown in FIG. 4 (A).

  As shown in FIG. 4 (A1), when the specific attack power icon 96B is extinguished (erased) according to the operation of the push button 120 by the player during the predetermined operation valid period, the figure is accordingly changed. As shown in FIG. 4B, an operation change preparation effect is performed in which a large-sized notification image 110 including a character image such as “large chance” and a substantially elliptical character frame image is displayed as an operation change preparation display. ..

  The operation change preparation display is a display that can secure a preparation period in which the operation mode of the push button 120 by the player is changed from the repeated hit operation in the repeated hit operation effect to the one hit operation in the one hit operation effect executed thereafter. This is performed using the notification image 110 that notifies the player that an opportunity has come, such as “a big opportunity”.

  After the operation change preparation display shown in FIG. 4 (B) is executed for a predetermined period (for example, 1 to 2 seconds), the one-shot mode display shown in FIG. 4 (C) is executed. When the one-shot mode display is executed, as shown in FIG. 4C, an image of a button icon 98 imitating the push button 120 is displayed as an operation promotion effect for promoting the operation of the push button 120 by the player. Along with the button icon 98, a one-stroke suggestion image 98B, which is composed of the characters “determine with one blow” and suggests one-stroke operation, is displayed.

  The one-stroke operation effect is an effect that causes the player to operate the push button 120 only once (one-stroke operation) during a predetermined operation effective period, and as shown in FIGS. 4C and 4D, the operation is effective. When the push button 120 is operated once during the period, the one-stroke operation correspondence display is performed as the operation correspondence display corresponding to the operation. As the one-stroke operation correspondence display, either one of a display that reduces the life of the enemy character 95 displayed in a level in the life display area 99 to "0" and a display that does not reduce the life to "0" by one shot Is performed. When the variable display result is the big hit display result, the display that reduces the life to "0" is executed, and when the variable display result is the deviant display result, the display that does not reduce the life to "0" is executed.

  In the one-stroke operation effect, when the life display in the life display area 99 reaches the minimum level (0) as shown in FIG. 4D by the one-stroke operation display, a victory display indicating that the ally character 94 has won ( The characters "WIN" are displayed) and the jackpot display result is displayed. On the other hand, in the one-stroke operation effect, if the life display in the life display area 99 does not reach the minimum level (0) by the one-stroke operation display, the defeat display (the character "LOSE" indicating that the ally character 94 has lost) is displayed. (Display, etc.) is performed, and the result of the off display is displayed (not shown). At the time when such a victory display or a defeat display is executed, since the variable display time has not ended yet, the display result has not been finalized, and the left, middle, and right effect symbols 91 to 93 are completely It is not stopped and displayed, but is temporarily stopped in a swinging manner. After that, at the end of the variable display time, the left, middle, and right effect symbols 91 to 93 are completely stopped and displayed, and the display result is confirmed.

  In the changed operation effect, the effect pattern is changed from the continuous hit operation effect to the one-hit operation effect in the middle of the operation effect, so that the continuous hit operation effect is executed, for example, as shown in FIGS. 4 (A) to 4 (D). After that, the one-stroke operation effect is executed. In the changed operation production, the action production can be changed from the continuous operation production that is the first action production to the one-stroke operation production that is the second action production, so that the interest of the game in the action production can be improved.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 4 (A), (A1), (B), and (C), the operation effect is changed from the continuous hit operation effect to the one-stroke operation effect in response to the player's operation being detected. Since the action effect can be changed from the first action effect to the second action effect so as to be possible, the interest of the game in the action effect can be further improved by the change of the action effect.

  In addition, as shown in FIGS. 4A, 4B, and 4C, after the operation change preparation effect that displays the notification image 110 as the operation change preparation display is executed, the operation effect is the continuous operation operation that is the first operation effect. Since the effect can be changed to the one-stroke operation effect, which is the two-motion effect, it is possible to prevent the player from being confused by the change in the operation effect.

  Further, as the action effect, in addition to the changed operation effect as shown in FIG. 4, the unchanged operation effect as shown in FIG. 3 can be executed, so that the pattern for ending the action effect without changing the operation effect can be executed. Therefore, when the action effect is executed, it is possible to expect the possibility that the action effect is changed until the end of the execution period of the action effect.

[Example of first and second action effect timing]
FIG. 5 is a timing chart showing the effect contents of the modified operation effect and the unmodified operation effect in comparison. In FIG. 5A, the progress state of the variable display is shown. FIG. 5 (B) shows the progress state of the changed operation effect. FIG. 5C shows the progress state of the change-less operation effect.

  As shown in FIGS. 5B and 5C, in each of the modified operation effect and the unchanged operation effect, pre-display is executed for a period T1 at the start of display in the reach display mode. When the period T1 ends, as shown in FIGS. 5 (B) and 5 (C), in each of the modified operation effect and the unmodified operation effect, it is shown in FIG. 3 (C) and FIG. 4 (A). As described above, execution of the continuous-stroke mode display and the continuous-stroke operation correspondence display is started as the continuous-stroke operation effect (first action effect).

  As shown in FIG. 5C, in the case of the change-free operation effect, the operation valid period is set and the continuous hit mode display and the continuous hit operation correspondence display continue to be executed for a period T5 until the variable display ends. After that, the victory display or the defeat display as shown in FIG. 3D is executed. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 5B, in the case of the modified operation effect, the operation effective period is set and the continuous hit mode display and the continuous hit operation are supported over a period T2 shorter than the period T5 in the non-changed effect effect. Display and execution can continue. In the case of the change-free operation effect, when a predetermined period elapses after reaching the reach display mode, the display of the specific attack power icon 96B is started as shown in FIG. When the button 120 is operated, the operation change preparation display is executed for the period T3 as shown in FIG. 4 (B).

  As shown in FIG. 5 (B), when the operation change preparation display period T3 ends, in the case of the changed operation effect, the one-stroke mode display and the one-stroke operation correspondence display are executed as the one-stroke operation effect (second action effect). Is started. Then, the operation effective period is set for the period T4 until the variable display is finished, and the execution of the one-stroke mode display and the one-stroke operation correspondence display is continued as the one-stroke operation effect (second action effect). Victory display or defeat display as shown in FIG. 4D is executed.

[Operation production process for first and second motion production]
Next, the operation effect processing executed by the effect control microcomputer 100 to perform the operation effect including the non-changed operation effect and the changed effect operation effect shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the operation effect process. The operation effect process of FIG. 6 is a process included in the effect control process process described above.

  In the operation effect process, first, it is determined whether or not the current execution period of the operation effect including the unchanged operation effect and the changed effect operation is being executed (S1). In S1, based on the confirmation of the effect control command received at the start of the variable display and the time value of the variable display timer for measuring the time from the start of the variable display, the present is as shown in FIG. It is determined whether or not it is the execution period of the operation effect including the non-changed operation effect and the changed operation effect.

  When it is determined in S1 that the operation effect is not being executed, based on the time value of the variable display timer, the operation effect is currently in a start period such as the period T1 in FIG. 5 (before the execution of the continuous hit operation effect is started). (Period of)) is determined (S2). When it is determined in S2 that it is the start period of the operation effect, pre-display as shown in FIG. 3A is executed (S3), and the process ends. As a result, advance display is performed in the period T1 of FIG. On the other hand, when it is determined in S2 that it is not the start period of the operation effect, based on the type of operation effect that is currently being executed (type of operation effect with change and effect without change) and the time value of the variable display timer. Then, it is determined whether or not the present is the execution period of the continuous hit mode display of the period T2 or the period T5 of FIG. 5 (S4).

  When it is determined in S4 that the continuous hit mode display is in the execution period, it is determined whether or not the operation effect currently being executed is the changed operation effect (S5). When it is determined in S5 that the operation effect is changed, the continuous hit mode display as shown in FIG. 4A is executed (S6), and the process proceeds to S12. As a result, in the modified operation effect, the continuous hit mode display is performed during the period T2 of FIG. 5 (B). In the continuous hit mode display executed in S6, as shown in FIGS. 4A, 4A, and 5B, the specific attack power icon 96B is displayed in the suggestion display area 960 after a predetermined time from the start of the continuous hit operation effect. Is displayed. In S6, since the specific attack force icon can be displayed after a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the repeated hit operation effect, the action effect is changed from the continuous hit operation effect to the one-hit operation effect after a predetermined period from the start of execution of the repeated hit operation effect. Since this is possible, the change timing of the action effect is interesting and the change is surprising, so that the change in the action effect can further enhance the interest of the game in the action effect.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in S5 that it is not the operation effect with change, that is, when it is the effect without change operation, the continuous striking mode display as shown in FIGS. 3B and 3C is executed (S7) and S12. Proceed to. As a result, in the change-free operation effect, the continuous hit mode display is performed during the period T5 of FIG. 5 (C).

  In S12, based on the detection signal input from the push sensor 124, it is determined whether the operation of the push button 120 is detected (S12). When it is determined in S12 that the operation is not detected, the process proceeds to S16. On the other hand, if it is determined in S12 that an operation has been detected, processing for displaying an operation corresponding to the type of operation effect being executed (type of operation effect with change and effect without change) is performed (S13). ).

  When the process proceeds from S6 to S12, the continuous hitting mode display in the modified operation effect is being executed, and accordingly, the continuous hitting operation corresponding display as shown in FIG. 4A is executed in response to the operation detection. As a result, in the modified operation effect, for example, in response to a continuous hit operation of the push button 120, the ally character 94 attacks the enemy character 95 to change the life display in the life display area 99 at the beginning. Is executed.

  Further, when the process proceeds from S7 to S12, the continuous hit mode display in the change-free operation effect is being executed, and therefore, the continuous hit operation corresponding display as shown in FIG. 3C is executed in S13 in response to the operation detection. It As a result, in the change-free operation effect, for example, a continuous stroke operation corresponding display in which the ally character 94 attacks the enemy character 95 to change the life display in the life display area 99 in response to the continuous stroke operation of the push button 120 is executed. It Then, at a predetermined timing immediately before the end of the variable display in which the change-free operation effect is executed, the life display in the life display area 99 is set to the lowest level (0) as the continuous hit operation corresponding display when the big hit display result is obtained. Is performed, and the life display in the life display area 99 is not set to the lowest level (0) as the continuous hit operation corresponding display when the display result is off.

  After S13, by determining whether or not the operation-corresponding display according to the digestion of the specific attack power icon 96B was executed in S13 immediately before, the operation detection determined in S12 is the specific attack power icon in the changed operation effect. It is determined whether or not the operation for digesting 96B is detected (S14). When it is determined in S14 that the operation for digesting the specific attack power icon 96B is not detected, the process proceeds to S16. On the other hand, when it is determined in S14 that the operation for digesting the specific attack power icon 96B is detected, the execution period T2 of the continuous hit mode display in the changed operation effect is ended (S15), and the process proceeds to S16. As a result, as shown in FIGS. 4 (A1), (B) and FIG. 5 (B), the continuous striking mode display in the changed operation effect ends.

  When it is determined in S4 described above that it is not the execution period of the continuous striking mode display, the type of the operation effect that is currently being executed (type of operation effect with change and effect without change) and the time value of the variable display timer are set. Based on this, it is determined whether or not the present is the execution period of the operation change preparation display of the period T3 of FIG. 5B (S8). If it is determined in S8 that the operation change preparation display is in the execution period, the operation change preparation display as shown in FIG. 4B is performed (S9), and the process proceeds to S10. As a result, in the changed operation effect, the operation change preparation display is performed during the period T3 of FIG. 5 (B).

  When it is determined in S8 described above that the operation change preparation display is not in the execution period, the type of the operation effect that is currently being executed (the type of operation effect with change and the effect without change operation) and the measured value of the variable display timer Based on the above, it is determined whether or not the present is the execution period of the one-shot mode display of the period T4 of FIG. 5B (S10). When it is determined in S10 that it is the execution period of the one-shot mode display, the one-shot mode display as shown in FIG. 4C is performed (S11), and the process proceeds to S12. As a result, in the modified operation effect, the one-shot mode display is performed during the period T4 of FIG. 5 (B).

  When the process proceeds from S11 to S12, the life of the life display area 99 is displayed as an operation correspondence display executed in S13 when it is determined that an operation is detected in S12, and as a one-hit operation correspondence display when the big hit display result is obtained. The display is suddenly set to the lowest level (0), and when the display result is off, the life display in the life display area 99 is not suddenly set to the lowest level (0) as the one-stroke operation display.

  When it is determined in S10 that it is not the execution period of the one-shot mode display, it is determined whether or not the current time is the end of the operation effect based on the time value of the variable display timer (S16). When it is determined in S16 that it is not the end of the operation effect, the process ends. On the other hand, when it is determined in S16 that the operation effect has ended, the operation effect end time process is executed (S17), and the process ends. In the operation effect end time process of S17, for example, when the big hit display result is obtained, the victory display as shown in FIG. 3D and FIG. A process of displaying an image determined as an image to be displayed at the end of the operation effect such as a process of executing a defeat display according to the variable display result is performed.

  In the above-described embodiment, as the detection means capable of detecting the operation (motion) of the player, the detection means such as the push sensor 124 capable of detecting the operation of the operation means operable by the player such as the push button 120. Is shown as an example. However, the detection means is not limited to this, and other detection means such as a tilt direction sensor unit for detecting the operation of the stick controller by the player may be used as the detection means. Further, as the detecting means capable of detecting the movement of the player, not the means for detecting the operation of the operating means, but the detecting means capable of directly detecting the movement of the player, such as an infrared sensor and a motion sensor. May be used.

  Below, the modified examples regarding the detection of the player's action in the above-described effect control regarding the action effect in the reach state will be listed. Specifically, even when one operation of the player is continuously detected by the operation detecting means such as the push sensor 124 during the detection effective period, the operation of the player is detected a plurality of times in succession. As an example, various configurations will be described in the case of providing an automatic continuous hitting function (automatic continuous hitting function) capable of executing an action effect such as an attack display in a battle effect.

  The automatic continuous hitting function is, for example, as a function of the effect control microcomputer 100, based on the long press operation of the push button 120 being continued for a first period such as 4 seconds, for example. A function of counting the number of operations one by one each time a second period such as 1.0 second elapses after the detection of the operation is started, and the detection is performed as if the push button 120 is repeatedly hit. Is.

[First Modified Example Regarding Detection of Player Motion]
As a first modified example, when the automatic continuous hitting function (automatic continuous hitting function) is provided, when the motion detecting means continuously detects one motion of the player before the effective detection period, An example will be described in which an invalidation unit that invalidates the detection of the operation is further provided.

  In the first modified example, in the effect control microcomputer 100, in the case where the automatic continuous hitting function is provided, the motion detection means continuously detects the motion of the push button 120 of the player before the effective detection period. In this case, the invalidation processing is executed to execute the control for invalidating the detection of the operation. By performing such control, it is possible to appropriately encourage the player to participate in the predetermined effect.

[Second Modification Regarding Detection of Player Motion]
As a second modified example, when an automatic continuous hitting function (automatic continuous hitting function) is provided, it is possible to set whether or not to detect that the player's motion is being performed a plurality of times consecutively (setting). An example will be described in which further setting means (such as setting on the menu screen) is further provided.

  In the second modified example, in the case where the automatic continuous hitting function is provided in the effect control microcomputer 100, for example, the automatic continuous hitting function is performed during a period in which the effect design is not being changed and displayed, such as a period during the customer waiting demonstration display. A setting process that enables setting whether to enable or disable is enabled. If such a setting is possible, it is possible to prevent the detection that the player's motion is being performed a plurality of times consecutively at unintended timing, and the interest in the game is reduced. Can be suppressed.

[Third Modified Example Regarding Detection of Player Motion]
As a third modified example, in the case where an automatic continuous hitting function (automatic continuous hitting function) is provided, if one motion of the player is continuously detected during the detection effective period, it is continuously changed at different intervals depending on the situation. An example in which it is assumed that the player's motion is detected a plurality of times will be described.

  In the third modification, in the case where the automatic continuous hitting function is used in the effect control microcomputer 100, for example, when the effect effect A and the effect effect B having different effect contents can be selectively executed, the effect effect A is changed. During the execution, it is treated as if the number of operations by the push button 120 is increased by 1 every 1.0 seconds during the detection by the automatic repeated hits, and 0 is detected during the detection by the automatic continuous hits during the execution of the action effect B. Every time 5 seconds elapse, the processing is performed as if the number of operations by the push button 120 is increased by one. By performing such a process, it is possible to perform a motion effect according to the situation.

[Fourth Modification Example Regarding Detection of Player Motion]
As a fourth modified example, when an automatic continuous hitting function (automatic continuous hitting function) is provided, a determination means for determining whether or not the motion of the player has been detected by the motion detecting means when the variable display is not in progress is further provided. An example in which the determination means does not determine that the player's motion is continuously performed a plurality of times even when the player's one motion is continuously performed will be described. To do.

  In the fourth modified example, in the effect control microcomputer 100, when the automatic continuous hitting function is used, in a configuration in which the automatic continuous hitting function can be set to be enabled or disabled, for example, the automatic continuous hitting function is enabled or disabled again. When the push button 120 is once operated to switch the enable / disable of the automatic continuous hitting function, the operation of the push button 120 is temporarily stopped, and the push button 120 is not operated again, the Executes control to restrict enabling / disabling of the repeated hit function. By performing such control, it is possible to prevent unintended operation from being detected.

[Example of production control for automatic continuous production]
Next, a description will be given of an example of effect control of a specific continuous hit effect in which the effect control CPU 120 can execute the specific effect in response to the player performing the continuous hit operation including the automatic continuous hit operation. The specific continuous hit effect shown below can be executed in combination with the various effect controls described in the above-described embodiments.

  The specific continuous hit effect is executed in response to execution of a continuous operation in which the player performs a plurality of operations, such as continuous hits, during the detection effective period of the operation detecting means capable of detecting the specific operation by the player. It is a directed production.

[Example of specific continuous hit production]
FIG. 7 is a display screen diagram of the effect display device 9 showing an example of a specific continuous hit effect. 7A to 7D show an example of an image displayed on the effect display device 9 in the specific continuous hit effect according to the passage of time. The specific continuous hit effect is executed when a variable display with a specific change pattern is executed, when a specific effect such as a battle effect is executed after a predetermined period has elapsed from the start of the variable display. It is possible.

  When the battle effect in which the specific continuous hit effect is performed is executed, as shown in FIG. 7A, the ally character 94 and the enemy character 95 appear as pre-display before the start of the battle, and the character is called "simple battle". Such a preliminary display in which characters that specify the simple battle effect are displayed is performed for a predetermined period (for example, 2 to 3 seconds). As the advance display, a life display area 99 for displaying the life (endurance) of the enemy character 95 as a level is further displayed.

  The simple battle effect is a battle effect in which a relatively simple effect is executed among the battle effects that can be executed by the pachinko gaming machine 1. In the simple battle effect, as shown in FIGS. 7B and 7C, a battle effect in which the teammate character 94 and the enemy character 95 compete with each other progresses in response to the player's continuous hit operation of the push button 120. In the simple battle effect, the ally character 94 attacks the enemy character 95 as a specific effect in response to the repeated hit operation, and the life level display in the life display area 99 corresponding to the enemy character 95 decreases in response to the attack. To do. As described above, in the simple battle effect, an action effect in which the execution of the repeated hit operation acts on the life level display in the life display area 99 is performed as a specific effect corresponding to the repeated hit operation.

  In the simple battle effect, when it is determined that the variable display result of the effect symbol (special symbol) will be the big hit display result, as shown in FIG. The life display becomes the lowest level (0), a victory display (for example, the display of the character "WIN", etc.) indicating that the ally character 94 has won is performed, and the jackpot display result is displayed. On the other hand, in the simple battle effect, when it is determined that the variable display result of the effect symbol (special symbol) will be the off display result, in the battle effect, the life display in the life display area 99 is the lowest level (0). However, the defeat display (for example, the display of the character "LOSE") indicating that the ally character 94 has lost is displayed, and the defeat display result is displayed (not shown).

  In the simple battle effect, the effect progresses in response to the player repeatedly hitting the push button 120. The continuous hit operation is an operation of continuous hit by the player, which is performed by the player repeatedly hitting the push button 120 by himself, and a long press operation (continuous pressing operation) of the push button 120 by the player for a specific time (for example, 1 second or more). ) Can be performed. As an effect mode when the effect corresponding to the continuous hit operation is executed, an effect mode when the effect corresponding to the operation of the self-powered continuous hit is being executed is called the self-powered continuous hit mode. The effect mode when it is being executed is called the automatic continuous hitting mode.

  The operation (detection) effective period of the repeated hitting operation in the simple battle effect is set to a predetermined period (for example, 10 seconds). As described above, in the automatic continuous hitting, the execution condition is satisfied and the operation by the automatic continuous hitting function is detected based on the push button 120 being pressed for a specific time (for example, 1.0 second). The number of operations is counted one by one each time a long press operation is started and a period such as 0.5 seconds elapses, and operation detection is performed as if the push button 120 was repeatedly hit. Function. A specific period (for example, 4.5 seconds) is set as the operation (detection) effective period of such automatic repeated hits.

  In the effect period in which the simple battle effect is executed, there are provided a period in which the automatic continuous hit can be started and a period in which the automatic continuous hit cannot be started. In the automatic continuous hit startable period, as shown in FIG. 7 (B), an effect is displayed to notify that it is the automatic continuous hit startable period, which displays a message image such as “continuous hit !! Be done. On the other hand, during the automatic continuous hit start impossible period, as shown in FIG. 7 (C), a message image such as “continuous hit !! Done.

[Example of effect control timing for automatic continuous hit effect]
Next, an example of the operation effect control timing regarding the self-powered continuous hit and the automatic continuous hit in the specific continuous hit effect will be described. FIG. 8 is a timing chart showing operation effect control timing relating to self-powered continuous hits and automatic continuous hits in a specific continuous hit effect.

  As shown in FIG. 8, in the specific continuous stroke effect, the effective period of the continuous stroke operation is from a first timing such as at the start of the reach state to a second timing such as immediately before the end of the variable display. It is set to a period (for example, 10 seconds).

  The self-sustainable continuous stroke startable period is set in correspondence with the entire valid period of the continuous stroke operation. The auto-repeating start possible period starts when a predetermined period (for example, 0.5 seconds) elapses from the start of the period during the effective period of the consecutive-stroke operation, and a specific period (for example, the first half of the effective period of the consecutive-stroke operation). (Period) The period until the time has elapsed is set. Note that the automatic continuous-stroke startable period may start at the start of the period during the valid period of the continuous-stroke operation. As the automatic continuous hit start impossible period, a period after the elapse of the automatic continuous hit startable period during the valid period of the continuous hit operation is set.

  During the self-powered continuous stroke startable period, the self-powered low-strength low action setting period in which the degree of the action mode (life reduction mode) of the action effect on the life display area 99 according to the execution of the self-powered continuous strike is controlled to a degree equal to or lower than a predetermined degree. And a self-powered continuous hitting high effect setting period in which the degree of the action mode (life reduction mode) of the action effect on the life display area 99 according to the execution of the self-powered continuous strike is controlled to a degree higher than a predetermined degree. .. As a result, even during the same self-powered continuous stroke startable period, the action mode (degree of action) of the action effect executed corresponding to the self-powered continuous hit is different between the self-powered continuous hit low action setting period and the self-powered continuous hit high action setting period. In this way, the self-sustainable continuous stroke startable period is set so that the action mode of the action effect differs depending on the remaining period of the operation valid period.

  Since the self-sustaining continuous stroke startable period and the continuous striking operation effective period are the same, it is basically possible to perform self-sustaining continuous striking operation at any time during the continuous striking operation valid period, and the above-mentioned action is performed in accordance with the self-sustaining continuous stroke operation. The production can be executed. During the self-acting continuous-stroke low action setting period during the period in which the self-consecutive striking can be started, a low-effect action effect can be executed based on the self-consecutive striking. During the self-powered continuous hitting high action setting period during the period in which the self-powered continuous hitting can be started, a high-action action effect can be executed based on the self-powered continuous hitting.

  In this way, the self-sustaining continuous stroke startable period is such that the first half is the self-sustaining continuous hitting low action setting period and the latter half is the self-sustaining high hitting action setting period, so that the action effect corresponding to the self-sustaining consecutive hits is a variable display result display timing The production can be linked so as to correspond to. For example, if the start timing of the continuous self-pulsing is the timing during the period of setting low self-pulsing low action during the period in which the continuous self-pulsing can be started, a slow action effect due to the low continuous action self-pulsing setting progresses in response to the continuous self-pulsing. After that, when the self-pulsing high-strength action setting period is reached due to the lapse of time, an immediate effect production progresses according to the self-responding continuous striking, and the life display area 99 life display is performed at the timing before the derivation display of the variable display result. An effect is produced in which the level of is set to a value according to the variable display result. For example, when the jackpot display result is derived and displayed, the life display level of the life display area 99 is set to “0” before the derivation display, and when the deviant display result is derived and displayed, the life display level of the life display area 99 is derived. Immediately before the display, an effect of setting a specific level of "1" or more is performed.

  If the start timing of the self-pulsing is during the self-sustaining continuous hit start time is during the self-consecutive high-acting setting period, the self-responding high impact setting will be used to promptly respond to the self-consecutive hits from the beginning. It is possible to make the level of the life display in the life display area 99 a value according to the variable display result at a timing before the derivation display of the variable display result.

  During the automatic continuous stroke startable period during the continuous continuous stroke operation effective period, the degree of the action mode (life reduction) of the effect effect on the life display area 99 according to the execution of the automatic continuous stroke is controlled to a certain degree. As a result, the automatic continuous stroke startable period is set so that the action mode of the action effect is constant regardless of the remaining period of the operation valid period.

  During the automatic continuous hit start period, it is considered that the continuous hit operation has been performed based on the long-press operation of the push button 120 for a predetermined time (for example, one second) or more, and the automatic continuous hit can be started. The above-described action effect can be executed in response to the repeated hitting operation. During the automatic continuous stroke start impossible period during the continuous continuous stroke operation effective period, even if the long press operation of the push button 120 for a predetermined time or longer is started, it is not considered that the continuous continuous stroke operation has been executed, and the automatic continuous stroke cannot be started. is there. In the automatic continuous hit startable period, unlike the self-powered continuous hit startable period, the action effect can be executed in a certain action mode based on the automatic continuous hit.

  In this way, when an automatic continuous hit that can be started during the automatic continuous hit startable period is executed, it is possible to perform an action effect in a certain action mode from the beginning to the end of the automatic continuous hit, so that the automatic continuous hit can be performed. Accordingly, a certain action effect by the automatic continuous hit action setting progresses, and the life display level of the life display area 99 is set to a value corresponding to the above-described variable display result at the timing before the derivation display of the variable display result. A performance is performed.

  Note that the automatic continuous hit startable period and the self-powered continuous hit low action setting period may be set as the same period, and the automatic continuous hit start impossible period and the self-powered continuous hit high action setting period may be set as the same period. In addition, as shown in FIG. 8, when the automatic continuous hitting startable period and the self-powered continuous hit low action setting period are set to different periods, for example, at least one of the beginning and the end of the period is set to a different period. May be done. Further, the automatic continuous hitting impossible period and the self-powered continuous hitting high action setting period may be set to different periods, in which case, for example, at least one of the beginning and the end of the period is set to a different period. May be done.

  Next, the relationship between the effect modes of the effect effects according to the execution of various continuous hits in the specific continuous hit effect will be described. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an action setting table for a specific continuous hit effect. The action setting table of the specific repeated hitting effect of FIG. 9 is stored in the ROM 102, and is used for the effect production according to the execution of the automatic repeated hitting within the self-attended continuous hitting low effect setting period, and the execution of the automatic repeated hitting within the self-attended high hitting effect setting period. According to the effect control, or when the effect effect corresponding to the execution of the automatic continuous hit within the automatic continuous hit startable period is executed, the effect control microcomputer 100 refers to the set data is used for the effect effect. Be done.

  As shown in FIG. 9, when performing self-powered continuous strikes within the self-powered low impact setting period, the life display area 99 is reduced by 5 levels for each effect corresponding to one stroke (one self-powered strike) in the self-powered continuous strikes. The effect production mode to be set is set. When performing self-powered continuous hits within the self-powered continuous hitting high action setting period, an action effect mode for reducing the life display for 20 levels in the life display area 99 is set for each effect corresponding to one stroke (1 self-powered hit) in the self-powered continuous hits. It When performing automatic continuous hits within a period in which automatic continuous hits can be started, an action effect that reduces the life display for 10 levels in the life display area 99 for each effect corresponding to one stroke (one automatic hit) in the automatic consecutive hits based on the long press operation. Aspect is set. As described above, the specific repeated hit effect includes the first effect effect that performs the effect effect according to the execution of the self-powered continuous hit, and the second effect effect that performs the effect effect according to the execution of the automatic continuous hit value.

  As shown in FIG. 9, for the self-powered continuous hitting, the self-powered continuous hitting high effect setting period of the shorter remaining time of the continuous-stroke operation effective period when the push button 120 is operated, out of the two setting periods, is the push-button 120. Is set so that the effect scale in the action effect, that is, the amount of decrease in the life display, is larger than during the self-powered continuous stroke low effect setting period in which the remaining time of the continuous stroke operation effective period when is operated is longer. There is. As described above, since the action mode of the action effect is different depending on the remaining period of the continuous hitting operation effective period, it is possible to further improve the enjoyment of the effect and improve the interest of the player. Furthermore, since the scale of the action effect increases as the remaining period of the continuous hitting operation effective period decreases, it is possible to secure the fun of the continuous hitting action effect even if the remaining period is short, so it is even more effective. The interest of the player can be improved, and the interest of the player can be improved.

  As shown in FIG. 9, since the degree of effect of the action effect is different between the time of performing the self-powered continuous hit and the time of performing the auto continuous hit, the variation of the continuous hit operation effect is enriched, the fun of the effect is increased, and the entertainment of the game is increased. Can be improved. In addition, when the automatic continuous hit is performed, the degree of action of the effect is constant, and the degree of effect of the effect is different between when the automatic low hit setting period and the high self-hit high action setting period are different. Since the effect patterns are different, the variation of the continuous hit operation effect is abundant, and the fun of the effect can be further improved and the interest of the player can be improved.

  In addition, when performing self-powered continuous hits within the self-powered high-strength setting period, the degree of effect of the action effect corresponding to the high-strength high-speed hits is higher than when performing self-powered continuous hits during the low-power self-pulsed low action setting period, so start self-powered continuous hit Even if the timing is delayed, the progress of the action effect by self-powered hitting is in time by the time before the display result of the variable display is derived and displayed (for example, when the jackpot display result is derived and displayed, the level of the life display area 99 is changed). It is possible to set it to "0" before the derivation display and to set the level of the life display area 99 to a specific level of "1" or more before the derivation display when the jackpot display result is derived and displayed.

  The automatic continuous hit is not executed even if the continuous hit operation is started during the automatic continuous hit start impossible period after the lapse of the automatic continuous hit startable period. However, it is possible to perform self-repeated hits over the entire period of the continuous hit operation effective period, and during the period when auto-repeated hits cannot be started, the action scale of the action effect becomes large due to the high self-responder high effect setting, so the player can perform automatic hits continuously. Even when the automatic continuous hit startable period has elapsed due to failure to start the game, if the player repeatedly hits by himself after that, it is possible to provide the player with an interesting effect due to the high action setting effect.

[Repeat production processing]
Next, the continuous hit effect processing executed by the effect control microcomputer 100 to perform the specific continuous hit effect described with reference to FIGS. 7 to 9 will be described. FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the continuous hit effect processing. The continuous striking effect process of FIG. 10 is a process included in the above-described effect control process process.

  In the operation effect processing, first, it is determined whether or not the present time is during the continuous hit effect effective period in the specific operation effect shown in FIG. 8 (SA1). In SA1, based on the confirmation of the effect control command received at the start of the variable display and the time value of the variable display timer that measures the time from the start of the variable display, the current operation is the continuous stroke in the specific operation effect. It is determined whether or not during the production effective period. Such a determination is possible because the specific operation effect is executed when a variation pattern command designating a specific variation pattern is received, and the continuous hit effect effective period is a predetermined period from the start of the variation pattern. This is because it is set.

  If it is determined in SA1 that it is not during the continuous striking effect effective period, the process is ended. On the other hand, when it is determined in SA1 that the continuous hit effect is in effect, it is determined whether or not the automatic continuous hit mode effect shown in FIG. 8 is currently being executed (SA2). During the continuous hitting operation valid period when the determination of SA2 is made, the automatic continuous hitting as shown in FIG. 7B is performed by the specific processing included in the effect control process processing according to the time elapsed from the start of the variable display. An effect of notifying that it is a startable period or an effect of notifying that it is an automatic continuous hit startable period as shown in FIG. 7C is executed. During execution of the effect in the automatic continuous hitting mode, a flag indicating the automatic continuous hitting mode is set (described in SA12). Therefore, in SA2, by confirming the data of such a flag, the automatic continuous hitting mode is performed. It is determined whether the production in the mode is being executed.

  When it is determined in SA2 that the automatic continuous hitting mode is in effect, the process proceeds to SA18 described later. On the other hand, when it is determined in SA2 that the automatic continuous striking mode effect is not being performed, it is determined whether or not the push button 120 is operated based on the presence or absence of the detection signal input from the push sensor 124 (SA3). If it is determined in SA3 that the push button 120 has not been operated, the processing ends. On the other hand, when it is determined in SA3 that the push button 120 is operated, it is determined whether or not the push button 120 has been pressed and held (SA4). Whether or not the long press operation is performed at SA4 is, for example, in the predetermined routine of the timer interrupt process in the effect control microcomputer 100, the input of the operation detection signal from the push sensor 124 continues for a predetermined number of times (predetermined period) or more. It is judged based on whether or not it is confirmed.

  When it is determined in SA4 that the long press operation has not been performed, the process proceeds to SA13 described later. On the other hand, when it is determined at SA4 that the long press operation is performed, it is being determined whether or not the long press operation (for example, a long press operation for 1 second or more) that satisfies the execution condition of the automatic repeated hits is performed. It is determined whether or not the automatic continuous hitting determination flag which is set at this time is set (SA5).

  When it is determined in SA5 that the automatic continuous hit determination in-progress flag is not set, the timing before the end of the automatic continuous hit startable period shown in FIG. It is determined whether or not (SA6). At SA6, it is determined whether or not the current time is before the end of the automatic continuous hitting startable period, based on the confirmation of the time value of the variable display timer that measures the time from the start of the variable display. When it is determined in SA6 that it is the timing before the end of the auto-consecutive-startable period, in order to determine (confirm) whether or not the long-press operation currently being performed satisfies the execution condition of auto-consecutive shots, The flag for determining continuous hits is set (SA7), and the process ends. On the other hand, if it is determined at SA6 that the timing is not before the end of the auto-continuous-stroke startable period, the processing is terminated without setting the auto-continuous-stroke determination flag.

  Further, when it is determined in SA5 that the automatic continuous hitting determination flag is set, it is determined whether it is the timing after the end of the automatic continuous hitting startable period shown in FIG. 8 (SA8). At SA8, it is determined whether or not the present time is after the end of the automatic continuous hitting startable period based on the confirmation of the time value of the variable display timer that measures the time from the start of the variable display. If it is determined in SA8 that the timing is after the end of the automatic continuous hitting startable period, the automatic continuous hitting determination flag is reset (SA9), and the process ends. As a result, if it is determined whether or not the long-press operation satisfies the execution condition of the automatic repeated hits, when the long-press operation is performed, the automatic continuous hits are not executed when the long-press operation is performed. That is, if the timing of the long press operation being 1 second or more is the end timing of the automatic continuous hit startable period, the automatic continuous hit is not executed even if the long press operation is performed.

  When it is determined whether or not the long press operation satisfies the automatic continuous hit execution condition, when the long press operation is performed so as to cross the end timing of the automatic continuous hit startable period, the automatic continuous hit execution condition is satisfied, The automatic continuous hit may be executed. That is, even if the timing when the long-press operation period is 1 second or longer is the end timing of the auto-continuous-stroke startable period, the automatic continuous stroke is executed when the long-press operation is performed for 1 second or longer. Good.

  On the other hand, when it is determined in SA8 that it is not the timing after the end of the automatic continuous stroke startable period, it is determined whether or not the automatic continuous stroke condition that a long press operation for one second or more is performed is satisfied (SA10). .. Whether or not the automatic continuous tapping condition is satisfied in SA10 is measured by, for example, measuring the time during which the operation detection signal is continuously input from the push sensor 124 in a predetermined routine of the timer interrupt processing in the effect control microcomputer 100. It is determined based on whether or not the timed time satisfies the execution condition of the automatic repeated hits.

  If it is determined in SA10 that the conditions for executing the automatic repeated hits are not satisfied, the process ends. On the other hand, when it is determined at SA10 that the condition for executing the automatic continuous hitting is satisfied, the automatic continuous hitting determination flag is reset (SA11). Then, the automatic continuous action effect mode setting in which the effect is set as shown in FIG. 9 is selected, the effect in the automatic continuous mode by the automatic continuous action mode setting is started (SA12), and the process is ended. .. As a result, the automatic continuous hitting effect, in which a certain action effect is performed, is executed. At SA12, when the effect in the automatic continuous hit mode is started, a flag indicating that the effect in the automatic continuous hit mode is being executed is set.

  As shown in SA6 to SA12, in the continuous hit production process, if the timing of the long press operation being 1 second or longer is within the automatic continuous hit startable period, the long press operation is regarded as the continuous hit operation, Auto continuous hit is executed.

  In the continuous hit production process, as shown in SA6, SA7, SA10 to SA12, the long press operation is a continuous hit operation when the timing of the long press operation period of 1 second or more is within the automatic continuous hit startable period. Since the automatic continuous hit is performed, the long-press operation period is 1 second or more even if the long-press operation is started during the continuous-stroke operation valid period before the start of the automatic continuous-stroke startable period. At this time, the effect of automatic continuous hitting is executed. That is, when it is determined whether or not the long press operation satisfies the execution condition of the automatic repeated hits before and after the start timing of the automatic continuous hit startable period, the automatic repeated hits can be executed according to the long pressed operation. If it is determined whether or not the long press operation satisfies the automatic continuous hit execution condition before and after the start timing of the automatic continuous hit startable period, even if the long press operation does not cause the automatic continuous hit to be performed. Good.

  When it is determined in SA2 that the automatic continuous stroke mode effect is being performed and the process proceeds to SA18, it is determined whether or not the push button 120 is being long-pressed (SA18). The determination at SA18 is performed in the same manner as the determination at SA4. When it is determined by SA18 that the long press operation is being performed, the effect in the automatic continuous hitting mode which is set and is being executed by SA12 is executed (execution is continued) (SA19), and the process is ended. On the other hand, when it is determined by SA18 that the long press operation is not being performed, the effect in the automatic continuous hitting mode being executed is ended (SA20), and the process is ended. When the effect in the automatic continuous hitting mode is ended by SA20, the above-described flag indicating the automatic continuous hitting mode is reset.

  When it is determined in SA4 that the long press operation has not been performed and the process proceeds to SA13, it is determined whether or not the automatic continuous hitting determination flag is set (SA13). When the automatic continuous hitting determination flag is set in SA13, the automatic continuous hitting determination flag is reset in response to the long press operation not being performed (SA14), and the process proceeds to SA15. As a result, when a long press operation is under automatic continuous hit determination at a timing of less than 1 second, if a single press operation (operation for a short period different from long press) is performed, the automatic continuous hit determination ends. However, auto continuous hits are not executed. On the other hand, when the automatic continuous hitting determination flag is not set in SA13, the process directly proceeds to SA15.

  At SA15, it is determined whether or not the current self-pulsing low action setting period shown in FIG. 8 is currently set (SA15). At SA15, it is determined whether or not the present is the self-powered continuous hit low action setting period based on the confirmation of the time value of the variable display timer that measures the time from the start of the variable display.

  When it is determined in SA15 that it is during the self-powered continuous hitting low effect setting period, the self-powered continuous hitting low effect effect mode is selected by selecting the self-powered continuous hitting low effect effect mode in which the low effect effect is set as shown in FIG. The effect corresponding to one stroke in the self-striking mode by the setting is executed (SA16), and the process ends. As a result, the self-powered continuous hitting effect in which the low action effect is performed is executed. On the other hand, when it is determined in SA15 that it is not during the self-powered continuous hit low action setting period, that is, during the self-powered continuous hit high action setting period, the self-powered continuous hit effect is set as shown in FIG. By selecting the effect mode setting, the effect corresponding to one stroke in the automatic continuous hit mode by the automatic high hit high effect effect mode setting is executed (SA17), and the process is ended. As a result, a self-powered continuous hitting effect in which a high action effect is performed is executed.

  In the continuous stroke effect process described above, as indicated by SA6Y and SA10 to SA12, the continuous stroke operation is performed based on the long press operation of the push button 120 for a specific period until a predetermined period such as the automatic continuous stroke start period elapses. Is executed, and as shown in SA6N, even if the long press operation of the push button 120 is started during the automatic continuous hit start impossible period after the automatic continuous hit startable period has elapsed, the continuous hit operation is not considered to be executed. As a result, it is possible to improve the fun of the production by determining whether the continuous stroke operation has been performed or whether the continuous stroke operation has been performed, based on whether or not the predetermined period has elapsed in the continuous stroke operation valid period. Therefore, the interest of the player can be improved.

[Modified example of specific continuous hit production]
Next, a modified example of the specific continuous stroke effect will be described.

  (1) In the continuous hit production process of FIG. 10, an example is shown in which the determination of automatic continuous hits is started by SA6 and SA7 regardless of the remaining period of the automatic continuous hit startable period, but the invention is not limited to this and the automatic continuous hit startable period is shown. When the remaining time is confirmed and the confirmed remaining time is less than the operation time which is the execution condition of the automatic continuous hit, the automatic continuous hit may not be performed without determining the automatic continuous hit.

  (2) As shown in FIG. 9, with respect to the automatic continuous hitting, an example is shown in which the action effect mode is constant. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and in automatic continuous hitting, a low effect setting period and a high effect setting period are set according to the elapsed time from the start of the effect, as in the action effect mode of self-powered hitting shown in FIG. 9. You may do it.

  (3) As shown in FIG. 9, with respect to the continuous hitting by itself, an example in which the low action setting period and the high action setting period are set according to the elapsed time from the start of the performance has been shown. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a continuous action may be performed in a certain action effect mode.

  (4) The effect shown in FIG. 7 for informing that the automatic continuous hit start period is possible may not be executed. Further, the effect shown in FIG. 7 for informing that it is the period in which continuous hits cannot be started may not be executed.

  (5) As the specific continuous hit effect, various effects other than the battle effect as shown in FIG. 7 (for example, in accordance with the continuous hit, the expected degree of a big hit is numerically set to "0%" to "less than 100%" or " It may be executed as an effect such as changing to "100%".

  (6) As shown in FIG. 8, an example is shown in which the automatic continuous stroke effect startable period ends when the timing set in the middle of the continuous continuous stroke operation valid period elapses. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the automatic continuous stroke effect startable period may be set to end when the timing close to the start timing in the continuous stroke operation valid period elapses, and the timing close to the end timing in the continuous stroke operation valid period elapses. It may be set to end at times.

  (7) As shown in FIG. 8, the timing for switching between the self-powered continuous hit low action effect setting period and the self-powered continuous hit high effect effect setting period ends when the timing set in the middle of the continuous hit operation effective period elapses. An example was given. However, not limited to this, the timing for switching between such a self-powered continuous hit low action effect setting period and a self-powered continuous hit high effect effect setting period is set to end when the timing close to the start timing in the continuous hit operation effective period elapses. Alternatively, it may be set to end when the timing close to the end time in the continuous hitting operation valid period elapses.

  (8) As an operation that is a condition for executing automatic continuous hitting, the long pressing operation of the operating means has been described as an example, but any operation may be performed as long as it is a predetermined operation other than the continuous hitting operation by itself. For example, as the operation that is the execution condition for the automatic continuous hitting, the operation condition for the automatic continuous hitting may be that an operating means (lever switch, jog dial, rotary switch, touch panel, etc.) other than the operating means capable of performing the continuous hitting operation is operated. ..

  (9) In FIG. 7 and the like, as the specific effect corresponding to the continuous hit operation, the effect effect in which the execution of the continuous hit operation acts on the life level display in the life display area 99 has been described as an example. As the specific effect, an action effect in which the color of a specific effect changes in response to repeated hits, an effect in which a specific object image is destroyed in response to repeated hits and the degree of destruction changes, and the number of sets of specific characters corresponding to repeated hits is Other effects such as changing effect and changing effect in which the specific first character image changes to the second character image in response to repeated hits may be performed.

Next, main effects obtained by the above-described embodiment will be described.
(1) As indicated by SA6Y and SA10 to SA12, it is considered that the continuous hitting operation is executed based on the long-pressing operation of the push button 120 for a specific period until a predetermined time period such as the automatic continuous hitting start period elapses. As shown in, even if the long press operation of the push button 120 is started during the automatic continuous hit start impossible period after the automatic continuous hit start possible period has elapsed, it is not considered that the continuous hit operation has been executed. As a result, it is possible to improve the fun of the production by determining whether the continuous stroke operation has been performed or whether the continuous stroke operation has been performed, based on whether or not the predetermined period has elapsed in the continuous stroke operation valid period. Therefore, the interest of the player can be improved.

  (2) As shown in FIG. 9, the degree of effect of action production is different between execution of self-repeated hits and execution of auto-repeated hits, so variations in repeated hit operation production are abundant and fun of the production is increased. The interest of can be improved.

  (3) As shown in FIG. 9, since the action mode of the action effect differs depending on the remaining period of the continuous hitting operation effective period, it is possible to further improve the enjoyment of the effect and improve the interest of the player. Can be made

  (4) As shown in FIG. 9, the action scale of the action effect increases as the remaining period of the continuous hitting operation effective period decreases, so that it is possible to secure the interest of the continuous hitting action effect even when the remaining period is short. As a result, it is possible to further improve the fun of the production and to enhance the interest of the player.

  (5) At the time of execution of the automatic continuous hit, the degree of action of the effect production is constant, and the degree of effect of the effect effect is different between the automatic low impact continuous action low setting period and the automatic high impact high action setting period. On the other hand, since the effect patterns are different, the variation of the repeated hit operation effect is enriched, and the fun of the effect can be further improved and the interest of the player can be improved.

  (6) As shown in FIGS. 4A to 4D, in the modified operation effect, the action effect can be changed from the continuous hit operation effect which is the first action effect to the one-stroke operation effect which is the second action effect. As a result, it is possible to improve the interest of the game in terms of motion production.

  (7) As shown in the suggestion display area 960 of FIGS. 3 and 4, in the preliminary display and the continuous hit mode display, the suggestion area 960 suggests the attack power of the attack effect by the color and shape of the attack power icon 96. By the display, the type of attack effect can be recognized by the player in advance, so that the interest of the game regarding the action effect can be further improved.

  (8) In the pre-display etc. of FIG. 3A, the suggestion display area 960 suggests the attack power of a plurality of attack effects by the color and shape of the attack force icon 96, thereby performing the attack effect. It is possible for the player to recognize in advance the type of the game, and it is possible to further improve the interest of the game in terms of motion production.

  (9) As shown in FIGS. 4 (A), (A1), (B), and (C), the operation effect is changed from the continuous hit operation effect to the one-stroke operation effect in response to the player's operation being detected. Since the action effect can be changed from the first action effect to the second action effect so as to be changeable, it is possible to further improve the interest of the game regarding the action effect due to the change of the action effect.

  (10) As shown in FIG. 5B, in S6 of FIG. 6, the specific attack force icon can be displayed after a predetermined time has elapsed from the start of the continuous stroke operation effect, so that a predetermined period has elapsed from the start of execution of the continuous stroke operation effect. Since it is possible to change the action effect from the continuous hit operation effect to the one-hit operation effect, it will be interesting at the time of changing the action effect and the change will be surprising. It can be further improved.

  (11) Further, as shown in FIGS. 4A, 4B, and 4C, after the operation change preparation effect that displays the notification image 110 as the operation change preparation display is executed, the operation effect is the first operation effect. Since it is possible to change from a certain continuous stroke operation effect to a one-stroke operation effect that is a two-motion effect, it is possible to prevent the player from being confused by the change in the operation effect.

  (12) Further, as the motion effect, the change-free operation effect as shown in FIG. 4 and the non-change operation effect as shown in FIG. 3 can be executed. Therefore, the motion effect is terminated without changing the operation effect. Is executable, it is possible to expect the possibility that the action effect will be changed until the end of the action effect execution period when the action effect is executed.

  (13) As shown in the first modification example regarding the detection of the player action, when the automatic continuous hitting function is provided, the action of the push button 120 of the player is continuously detected before the detection effective period. In this case, by executing the control for invalidating the detection of the motion, it is possible to appropriately encourage the player to participate in the predetermined effect.

  (14) As shown in the second modified example regarding the detection of the player's action, in the case where the automatic continuous hitting function is provided, whether the automatic continuous hitting function is enabled or disabled during the period in which the variation of the effect symbol is not being displayed. By enabling the setting of, it is possible to prevent the detection that the player's action is being performed a plurality of times consecutively at unintended timings, and it is possible to reduce the interest in the game. Can be deterred.

  (15) As shown in the third modified example regarding the detection of the player's action, when the automatic continuous hitting function is provided, it is assumed that the player's action is continuously detected a plurality of times at different intervals depending on the situation. By doing so, it is possible to perform a motion effect according to the situation.

  (16) As shown in the fourth modified example relating to the detection of the player's action, in the case where the automatic continuous hitting function is provided, after the valid or invalid of the automatic continuous hitting function is switched, the operation of the push button 120 is temporarily stopped, If the push button 120 is not operated again, it is possible to prevent the unintended action from being detected by restricting the function of the automatic repeated hits from being enabled or disabled again.

[Other modifications]
Next, other modifications and characteristic points will be listed below.

  (1) In the attacking power icons 96 displayed in the suggestion display area 960, a big hit confirmation icon may be displayed as an icon that suggests information that can be identified as a big hit. When such a jackpot confirmation icon is displayed, the operation pattern used for the effect is different (branched) from the above-mentioned changed non-operation effect and changed operation effect, and the expanded effect is executed. Good. Further, when such a big hit confirmation icon is displayed, the continuous hitting operation effect may be ended at the time when the big hit fixing icon is consumed by the operation, or the continuous hitting operation effect after the big hit fixing icon is consumed by the operation. The continuous hit operation effect may be continued until the period ends.

  (2) In the above-described embodiment, an example in which the action effect is changed from the continuous hit operation effect to the one-stroke operation effect on the condition that one specific attack power icon 96B is consumed by the operation has been described. Not limited to the above, it is possible to display a plurality of specific attack power icons 96B, and on the condition that the plurality of specific attack power icons 96B have been digested by the operation, the motion effect is changed from the continuous hit operation effect to the one-stroke operation effect. You can

  (3) In the above-described embodiment, after a plurality of offensive power icons 96 are displayed in the suggestion display area 960, it is said that “white, blue, red, star” is displayed before being digested according to the operation. The effect of changing the color and shape in the initially displayed state may be performed. For example, the icon initially displayed in “white” is changed to “red” in the middle, or the basic attack power icon 96A initially displayed in a circle such as “white” is replaced with a “☆” shape in the middle. The special attack power icon 96B may be changed.

  (4) In the above-described embodiment, “white, blue, red, star” is operated before the attacking power icon 96 displayed in the suggestion display area 960 is displayed and before it is consumed according to the operation. When the push button 120 is vibrated according to the above, the push button 120 may be vibrated (a vibration function is added) to indicate the magnitude of the big hit expectation degree depending on whether or not it vibrates. For example, when the push button 120 vibrates, the expectation of a big hit may be higher than when the push button 120 does not vibrate. Further, the strength of vibration when the push button 120 is vibrated can be switched in a plurality of steps. For example, if the basic attack force icon 96A of “red” is vibrated with a weak vibration, it is displayed in a “☆” shape. The special attack power icon 96B may be vibrated with a strong vibration.

  (5) In the above-described embodiment, the push button 120 has a structure capable of emitting light in any of a plurality of colors (a structure including a light emitting device), and a plurality of offensive power icons 96 are displayed in the suggestion display area 960. After that, the color of the push button 120 is changed to the same color as the icon when "white, blue, red, ☆" is consumed according to the operation until it is consumed according to the operation. It may be allowed to. In addition, as for the special attack power icon 96B having the “☆” shape, the color of the push button 120 may be changed to a special color such as rainbow.

  (6) In the above-described embodiment, the example in which the action effect is changed once is provided on condition that one specific attack power icon 96B is consumed by the operation. The specific attack power icon 96B can be displayed, and each time one specific attack power icon 96 of the plurality of specific attack power icons 96 is consumed by an operation, the action effect is changed to a different type (different operation pattern). You may do it.

  (7) In the above-described embodiment, an example in which a plurality of types of attack power icons are provided as the basic attack power icon 96A has been shown. However, the basic attack power icon 96A is not limited to this, and only one type of icon having the same attack power may be used.

  (8) The action effect that performs a predetermined action each time the player's operation is detected is not the attack effect described above, but an effect of a car race (a big win if the car on which the teammate character rides is the first place) Other effects, such as an effect of accelerating the speed of the car on which the teammate character A is riding, may be performed in (effect, etc.). That is, the action effect may be any effect as long as the action detecting means detects the action of the player and performs a predetermined action according to the action. An icon or the like indicating acceleration may be used as the suggestion display suggesting the type of action production in the production of such an automated race.

  (9) In the aggression power icons 96 displayed in the suggestion display area 960, a big hit confirmation icon may be displayed as an icon that suggests information that can determine that a big hit has been decided. When such a jackpot confirmation icon is displayed, the operation pattern used for the effect is different (branched) from the above-mentioned changed non-operation effect and changed operation effect, and the expanded effect is executed. Good. Further, when such a big hit confirmation icon is displayed, the continuous hitting operation effect may be ended at the time when the big hit fixing icon is consumed by the operation, or the continuous hitting operation effect after the big hit fixing icon is consumed by the operation. The continuous hit operation effect may be continued until the period ends.

  (10) In the above-described embodiment, an example is shown in which the type of operation effect is always changed when the specific attack power icon 96B is consumed by an operation. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the type of operation effect may not be changed at a predetermined rate (for example, 10%) when the specific attack power icon 96B is consumed by an operation.

  (11) In the above-described embodiment, the continuous-stroke operation effect is shown as the first action effect and the one-stroke operation effect is shown as the second action effect. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the one-stroke operation effect is used as the first action effect. The movement effect may be changed such that when the one-stroke operation effect is shifted, the continuous hit operation effect is executed as the second operation effect.

  (12) In the above-described embodiment, an example has been shown in which the type of action effect is changed in accordance with the detection of the operation (action) by the player, targeting the action effect executed in the reach state. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the type of action effect may be changed depending on the detection of the operation (action) by the player, targeting the action effect executed in a state other than the reach state.

  (13) In the above-described embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, an example in which the effected operation effect and the unmodified operation effect have the same effect period length is shown. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the effect period may be different between the modified operation effect and the unmodified operation effect (for example, the modified operation effect has a longer effect period than the unmodified operation effect). May be done).

  (14) In the above-described embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, an example in which only one type of changed operation effect is provided is shown. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The selection rate may be set so that the degree of expectation of a big hit varies depending on the type. In that case, basically, the length of the effect period may be the same regardless of the degree of expectation of a big hit, or the length of the effect period may be different depending on the degree of expectation of a big hit (for example, The higher the expectation of a big hit, the longer the production period).

  (15) In the above-described embodiment, the pachinko game machine 1 is illustrated as an example of the game machine, but the above-described embodiment is not limited to this, and, for example, a game with a predetermined number of balls. Balls are circulated inside the gaming machine and the number of balls lent out according to the player's lending request and the number of prize balls awarded according to the winning are added, while the game used for the game The present invention can be applied to a so-called enclosed game machine in which the number of balls is subtracted and stored. Further, in the above-described embodiment, a predetermined number of bets is set by inserting medals, a plurality of types of symbols are rotated according to the operation of the operation lever by the player, and a symbol according to the operation of the stop button by the player. If the combination of the stopped symbols becomes a specific combination of symbols when the game is stopped, a predetermined number of medals may be paid out to the player. As described above, the above-described embodiment may be applied to any gaming machine as long as the gaming machine is playable.

  (16) In the above-described embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, an example in which the strength of the attack power is suggested by the color is shown as the attack power icon 96, but the attack power icon 96 is not limited to this. Instead of 96, a plurality of types of items for attack such as knife, pistol, rifle, etc. may be displayed. In that case, the strength of the offensive power is suggested depending on the type of item.

  (17) As an advantageous state advantageous to the player, the big hit game state has been described as an example, but not limited to this, in addition to the big hit game state described above, a high probability state (probability change state), a time saving state, and Other advantageous conditions may be included, such as a high base condition.
